You might of have caps lock on by accident, just keep a look out for that (some people can get bent out of shape about it... not me though, because I am looking for some sort of specs/guide for boot animations). So far I've only seen boot animations ported from other phones, which while cool, there is something special about making exactly what you want.
There is a lack of info out there (I believe), because this really isn't something meant for end-users (compared to creating backgrounds or ringtones). Feel free to PM me if you have info on creating custom boot animations (we need to celebrate the rooting of our beloved Incredible =p).

There is loads on info on this stuff. You just have to search. Below is an example desc.txt file. This describes how to construct your desc.txt file and what everything does.
#example desc.txt
Code:
480 800 15
p 1 0 android
p 1 5 end
p 0 0 loop
The first line is Width, Height and Frame Rate respectively. The width and height do not need to be the size of your screen in case your frmaes are an odd size. The remaining lines describe your folders that contain the animations and what to do with them. Each remaining line begins with the letter 'p' as a separator. The first digit after the 'p' defines how many times to play through the animation. A zero (0) in that position will cause that animation to loop indefinitely until the boot process is complete. The second digit defines how many frames to pause before moving on to the next line or animation. The time elapsed is defined by your frame rate and the number of frames paused. For example, if your frame rate is 15 and you choose to pause for 30 frames, the time elapsed will be two (2) seconds. The last element in the line is the folder name to pull the animation from.
The pictures in your folders are the individual frames for your animation. They can be either .JPG or .PNG file types. If your finished product ends up being too large, you can usually reduce the size by converting the frames to .JPG format. The only other requirement is the file names must follow a sequential number sequence incrementing from start to finish.
If you wish to add sound to your animation, it should sync to your storyboard. The sound will start playing immediately after the boot animation starts and will play to either it ends or the phone finishes booting. The audio will not loop unless it is looped in the audio file itself. The audio file name must be named android_audio.mp3 for it to be recognized. The only other requirement is that one of your folders MUST be named 'android'.
It is important to note that when creating a boot animation, the finished product must be placed in a zip file named bootanimation.zip (with the exception of the audio file). However, when doing this always select the 'store' method for compression so the data is NOT compressed. If you mess up, you will know by the blank, black screen you see while booting.
Both the bootanimation.zip and android_audio.mp3 need to be pushed or copied to /data/local/ for the system animation to be overridden.

If you have pushed a boot animation previously do you need to remove it? If so what are the commands for adb. Thanks for the instructions they were very clear for us noobs..

No you can just overwrite with the new one.

[Boot Animation] Fake PC BIOS (100% EVO Information) + Sound - **UPDATED 2/7**

Big shout out to evanscnce for his prior work on this. If I missed anyone, please forgive me.
LAST UPDATE: 2/7/2011
Changelog:
2/7/11 - JSmurfy made a flashable zip
9/8/10 - My animations say "Custom ROM". EindhovenOne is creating animations for your specific ROM (click here)
9/4/10 - Added a bootanimation + sound that has the android part for less time (more bios)
9/2/10 - Added a quieter bootsound
9/1/10 - Added Philosuffer's suggestions to bootanimation
Note: It won't have that "unregistered" part on your phone.
Regular version:
(Click here or on the image for the full sized preview.)
Less Droid version:
NOTE: Even though it is 1 frame, the Android part stays for a few seconds as the UI comes up
(Click here or on the image for the full sized preview.)
I changed the animation from the Baked Snack version, most to better reflect most of our current states:
*desire>evo
*8250 cup>8650 cpu
*2.1>2.2
*mocado rom>custom froyo rom
*compass>f.m. radio (I noticed the phone does have a compass... oh well)
*sim>internal storage
*microsd>microsdhc
*trackpad>power + vol down (thanks Philosuffer for the suggestion)
*512MB ROM>1024MB ROM
*init form 7 dots to 5 like the rest
*initialisation>initialization (thanks Philosuffer for the suggestion)
*android fully filled with green text > android gradually filling up with green text
The evanscnce version only currently has:
*desire>evo
*2.1>2.2
*mocado rom>custom froyo rom.
I also made a bootsound that's about 15 seconds, and syncs up with the 1st part of the animation. It is a computer booting up, with fans, the BIOS beep, and disk searching. I haven't heard the other new ones, so mix and match if you like theirs better. I think mine is pretty sweet though. I found that the original version is very loud if you have your volume up, so I also included a softer version.
How to change your boot animation to this one
Way 1 (Recovery):
Enter your recovery and flash this flashable zip (no warranty/use at own risk)
made by me and packaged by JSmurfy. Link to file - http://bbthemesunltd.com/jsmurfevo/bootanimation_bios.zip. Note: this zip will work on ROMS where the animation and sound are in the same place as the stock ROM. If they are not, The zip will not work, but your phone should still be fine.
This version has the "DROID!" sound.
Way 2 (ADB/Root Explorer):
Download the attached file you are most interested in and push the boot animation and sound file to their proper folder. Reboot.
Way 3 (May be outdated, but its a solution for many who don't like recovery or messing with the android file system):
Download evanscnce's Easy way to change your bootscreen *updated for CM6* (link to file - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=388107&d=1282771153)
Download the attached boot animation (bootanimation.zip) and/or sound (SPC_animation_final.zip).
-Unzip pushboot.zip into an empty folder.
-Don't unzip the animation, just put it in that same empty folder.
-Unzip the sound in the folder.
-Plug your phone in, and make sure it is set to debug and charge only.
--Open pushboot.bat if you have HALFROOT
**OR** Open pushboot2.bat if you have FULLROOT
**OR** Open pushbootcm6 if your using Cyanogens ROM
-Follow the prompts (when the phone goes into recovery, wait utill it connects to your pc before continuing)
--If you want to remove the bootsound from your phone, run the audio delete bat.

Just a heads up, this has already been fixed/edited... In the other edit, it has been changed to reflect use on the Evo 4g, Shows as a 2.2 OS, and Also has been customized for various ROMs (Rather than show as "Custom ROM", the ROM name is listed) Just need to DL the right one for the ROM you are using....
Edited BIOS Bootscreen thread
But, Good work.

EDIT: xda wasn't working for me yesterday, or i would have noticed. mine changes 4x more stuff though, and it makes it where it doesn't matter what froyo rom you use. i think someone should still convert this. i'll also get with that person so we can get this done.
EDIT: i figured it out. post 1 is updated.

I made a sound for this BIOS boot animation & it syncs perfectly with the animation (IMO).

That's cool, I may add your "droooid" clip to the end of mine sometime and give you credit. My sound is a 15 sec bootup, fans whirring, bios beep right when it shows froyo custom, disk searching sounds, and then it ends right when the android logo comes up. If I were to add yours to mine, I'd make it say "drooooid" right then. You can add it to mine and post it if you'd like, just please credit me.

I checked both out. I like this one more with the changes you put in place.
One thing about this BIOS Screen is that its a bit fast. The "BIOS" loads so fast you cant read some of the changes.

I agree with you there. In the future, I might make one with less Droid and more Bios.

I ran through your instructions, i am running Evio ROM and i used the Pushboot 2 bat file and i still do not have the custom bootscreen? I tried both of of the attached files..

I can't get the audio to delete.
It installed just fine but won't remove. Can't find the files and errors out.

You should have 3 zip files, pushboot.zip, bootanimation.zip, and SPC_animation_final.zip. Extract pushboot.zip to a new folder, unzip SPC_animation_final.zip into that same folder, and just place bootanimation.zip in that folder. Did any error pop up when you tried, and if so, what?

Try the silent mp3 in the attachment with whatever method you used to place the sound and animation in the 1st place. make sure there is only one mp3 in the folder. If that doesn't work, take a look at the thread with the script to upload the animation (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=701295) and see if there are any solutions, but the silent mp3 will probably work. Let me know.

Almost 100% Evo... At the bottom it says press Home to enter Setup.
This one says Hold Vol-Down + Power to enter Setup, and Initialisation changed to Initialization (for USA residents).

Yeah, it does seem like updating stuff on Android is a little harder than Windows Mobile, for instance.

Why can't it just be a zip!!! Great work though... There seems to be a bunch of new devs/tom cookers.. Hit them up..

The 1st and last time i tried to make something flashable, it bootlooped my device. I am tired of reinstalling/flashing for the time being, and wouldn't want to have anyone else go through it either.
All you have to do is download 2 or 3 files (loader, animation and/or sound). If you follow the instructions, it should take less than 5 minutes total from the time you are done downloading to the time your phone has the new animation running.

Updated for Fresh Evo 3.2.0.0 users!!!
First off, all credit goes to the OP for his work on the original animation!
Hey, all...this took me a little while but I updated the original animation so now it says "Fresh Evo v3.2.0.0" under the ROM section. I also changed the "Generic microSDHC " to "SanDisk microSDHC" and changed "FM Radio" back to "Compass" since I don't use the FM Radio at all. I also made the animation a bit longer to compensate for the slight wait you had between the end of the animation and the boot into the ROM...
I'll make updated longer ones for each ROM when I get the chance if the OP doesn't mind and doesn't beat me to it, but I wanted to take care of my Fresh Evo users first.
I also considered making separate ones for each size microSDHC card but that would take quite a while but we'll see.
In any case, here you go, Fresh Evo 3.2.0.0 updated BIOS boot animation...and as I stated in the first line, thank you akastixx for your work, sir.

i don't mind at all. people have been editing and re-releasing this boot thing since at least the touch pro. i went with "custom" to appeal to the masses. i didn't feel like putting in the time for each rom that was out. i will link to your post. if you could just add any new ones to that post, we wont have to link to various posts.

[BOOTANIMATION] Some Basic Bootup Screens - incl. Transformer logo

Thanks to a few posts on the forums (credit to fone-fanatic and jschmier) I've managed to create a few basic boot animations which I'll share here.
You do NOT need to be rooted for the ADB method. If you are sending back your device under warranty remember to remove the custom boot animation before you do. Code is below, showing you how. It doesn't interfere with anything else on your TF. It doesn't even overwrite the original file so you can roll-back any time you like.
_______________
How to install:
Download the file of your choice. Rename the file to 'bootanimation.zip'. Do not extract the files contents, leave it alone. Then follow the guide below.
Via Asus USB data cable (Does not require root):
Use ADB. Guide HERE. Copy the file to: C:/Users/(your username here). Type 'cmd' in the windows start box (in Windows 7 and Vista), or start menu>run then type cmd and hit enter (XP users). A dos emulator console box should pop up. If it isn't already at C:/Users/(your username here) then navigate to the folder containing the "bootanimation.zip" in the command prompt.
To check your device is connected type:
Code:
adb devices
If it's not, you need to follow the guide linked above to install the usb drivers.
-----
To add an animation type:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
To test that it's installed correctly type:
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
And it should show the animation on the TF screen. Press ctrl+c to stop the animation.
To remove the boot animation and restore your unit to stock, type in:
Code:
adb shell rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip
-----
Via a file explorer app (Requires root):
Copy 'bootanimation.zip' onto a memory card. On your TF open the file explorer app of your choice (any app that allows you to copy and paste to the internal memory, "Root Explorer" is a useful app). Copy 'bootanimation.zip' and paste it to /Data/Local. If the folder doesn't exist, create it.
Via Dropbox and terminal emulator (May require root):
Follow the guide in this post HERE.
_____________
N.B. It seems that no matter what settings I use to make the files, on first playback the animation lags. After the first animation cycle it should run smooth once the files are cached though. It will do this each bootup unfortunately. It even does it with the official files so I guess it's just a hardware problem.
Downloads:
(The animation speeds of the preview gif files are not representative of the final files in the zip's. They are for reference only)
***A lot of these files may be down as the file hosting sites remove the files after 1-2 weeks of no activity nowadays which is useless. Once links are dead, they're dead... sorry. I've wasted wayyy too much time uploading and relinking them now.

Fancy saying thanks? Click the thanks button, buy me a coffee (via the donate button) or a new house (wouldn't say no to that one ) it's much appreciated (I've made it through too many sleepless nights with a cup o' Joe lately).
Or if you don't like that idea then please consider donating to The Red Cross, as they certainly deserve it a lot more than I do.
.

Thanks for that. I have downloaded the files but cannot find data\local on my tf.
I have data folder but there is no "local" folder in it. I have looked in system folder and I have no hidden files.....

Did you try creating a folder to put the files in it? I think you have to create it to get it to work. I tested them all via the ADB method so not sure about the file manager way tbh.

Thanks for putting these out - the effort is appreciated!
Had a suggestion if I may? Either a blue Transformer symbol with the exploding effect, or the Transformer symbol with the glowing chrome effect of the stock Android bootscreen - the one with the word "Android" across the middle of the screen....

@Fisha21
I had a bit of time so attempted one for you. It's not great but that's the best you're gonna get im afraid. It's the 'Decepticon Zoom' one. Looks better on the tablet than in the gif animation.

Thanks a lot for that! Saw that one in the OP and thought it looked pretty cool. Will definitely give it a try..
EDIT: So, tried out the Decepticon zoom one, but it seemed to run very choppily, despite several reboots. Do appreciate you taking the time though. I liked the explode one, but not a fan of green. Tried recolouring to blue, but my resulting boot anim seems to run at twice the speed of the original. Not sure what I did wrong. Have attached it, maybe you could try it out, see what I messed up? Also, did you use separate layers for that one? If so, do you have just the exploding effect .pngs without the word "Asus" - would be cool to add different text there....

"Transformer" animation
stuntdouble nice work, thanx for sharing!
i have a few questions, if i may?
what do you use to create the png's, photoshop?
how long did it take you to make "android" animation?
would you be able to make one like "android" but with "transformer" instead?
also, how hard would it be to make an animation like the title of the "Transformers" movie? (or something similar to it)
you can see it in some trailers on YouTube, you know the letters transforming into the final title.
look at the 2nd vid from the top on this page (titled "WATCHPREVIEW"):

I've started using Adobe After Effects so I'm just practising the basics at the moment. It can export a series of png's which is handy. It took about an hour to make the 'android' logo from scratch. Sorry but I don't really want to repeat the same stuff over and over as I'm trying to learn new things in the program.
That 'transformers' title logo sequence looks quite cool. I'll try make an 'android' version of that some time.

You aren't the only one asking for something along these lines, which has inspired me to give it a shot. Not wanting to high-jack stuntdouble's thread or detract from the excellent work he has done on these boot animations, I started another thread to feature this animation.

It usually lags the first time it tries to play the file, on every boot, as it caches the info to ram. My animated gif speeds are normally different from the resulting file, as they are just an example of what the animation looks like, not of the speed as well. If you want yours to run faster or slower then you can change the frames per second figure in the desc.txt file from 20 to something else. A lower number plays it slower and a higher number plays it faster. On the flip side however you have to be careful, because if you increase it too much it will lag a lot. This depends on the filesize of the individual images.
I'll pm you a link to the file and you can play around with it as much as you want.

No problem. Just halve the fps in the desc.txt file then, and re-package into a zip file.

You might consider optimizing the PNG images used in the animations. I don't know enough about the algorithms to know how it impacts rendering, but there is typically a decrease in the overall size of the boot animation. For example, optimizing the PNG images in the exploding ASUS logo animation (explode.zip) via rOptiPng (roptipng -o7 **/*.png) resulted in a ~10.5% (760 KB) size decrease.

yep good idea just added them

Like the idea of lawnmower man boot anim. To be honest i found it a bit slow & jumpy - probably because it had quite a lot to load in. Also not sure it made it to the end- Revolver 3.0 just boots too fast
Not sure if you could somehow edit it a bit shorter & maybe end it in a way that can loop for the remainder?
Keep it up tho-It's good fun turning an idea in to something you can see on your tablet.

thanks for the input.
I just tweaked it so it runs alot smoother and faster.
I guess making it to the end depends how fast u boot up. I'm also running revolver 3 and have the zip alligned setting on and it runs right to the end and boots into the lock screen. The zip allign makes it take longer to boot so that could be why
Updating with a new link :-D

updated with a video now

anyone like starwars? millennium falcon? deathstars?
then i have the boot animation for you haha video in first post

new boot animation added
ironman suit up scene no you tube vid as of yet i will throw up some screenshots in a moment

The Death Star one looks nice, but it's a tad long. It runs what, 1 minute 20 seconds? Most Transformers load in about 40 seconds (give or take) once the boot animation starts. So half the animation is lost.

[BootTheme] MotoBlack v2.0 by xpmule 2016

I would say this is my best attempt at a Black mod of the stock default BootLogo.
I tried a huge amount of logo's and colors and effects but i was going for a simple style.
I re-created every single image in intense detail.
I also will start calling these a Boot "Theme"
This is a package made up of not just the Boot-Logo but ALL the Bootloader's 27 images.
So in reality it's far more of a theme than just a Logo.
I started doing this because i noticed a sloppy lame effort by Motorola on the default Logo.bin
I think my "themed" BootLogo came out looking a LOT better.
FEATURES:
- 5 separate flashable Boot Logo Sets (all using the same Menu Buttons)
- High Resolution.. Images @ 245 DPI (DPI of the Moto-E ?) Logo sourced from High Res 1600x1600.
- Smallest File Size.. I was aiming for performance + quality (This is far smaller than the default Logo.bin)
- Tested.. Charging etc + Flashing via TWRP & ADB/PC on Marshmallow & Lollipop.
- Simple Style.. Boot Logo Text "Android" dropped / removed. (just because)
- Unlocked Boot Logo.. Same Logo for Locked or Unlocked Bootloaders (Unlock Warning Removed)
- New Bootloader Buttons.. Colors were chosen carefully to make navigation more intuitive.
- Bootloader Button Text.. Changed the Menu Options Text to be shorter and more descriptive.
- Optimized Graphics.. Flat PNG's made with Adobe Fireworks (32bit, 245DPI) + cut away unneeded space.
- Cleaned up.. Removed the 3 Charging Images because they are never used (replaced with 1 pixel images)
- Improved Arrow Buttons.. Fixed alignment and created new images with a gradient effect (Wingdings3 font)
- Improved Menu Text.. Used much larger font size to make it easier to read (Droid Sans)
- Droid_Operation.. Android Robot on Bootloader was made larger and centered and a bit darker.
- Flashable Zip Format.. Or if you want to use ADB/PC to flash it just extract the Logo.bin from the zip file.
- Supported Systems.. Android 5.0, 5.1, 5.1.1 & 6.0
Note: I used the update-binary from inside the MotoBootLogoMaker Program + my own Update Script.
So comments / suggestions are welcome..
I did already make a few variations such as a Blue Sky with some clouds glass effect Logo.
I may share that one too later but i wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions or requests.
Note: I originally did this Logo Dark-Grey but felt the Blue color was a bit better.
I also did a Logo that matched the original shade of blue (all with black backgrounds)
And yeah i have seen others do it already.. but they usually do a sloppy job of it.
I also wanted to share this thinking some people may want it simply to use the Buttons etc.
So people feel free to take my Logo.bin and put your own Logo-Picture in and share it etc.

EXPECT MORE !​

I am reserving this spot for a couple of the variations i made.
(most of the work is already done)
PS:
Expect more = i mean, Expect more from us who make & share things.. don't settle for sloppy crap
EDIT:
Here is a variation i was going to add.. Same logo as what i already uploaded but i put some effects on it.
So do you people think it's better with or with out the Text (new or old font?) sometimes i like all 3.
Anyway, does this one look interesting?
Other Logo suggestions etc ?
hxxp://i68.tinypic.com/2lt288m.jpg

Well since i edited my last comment i went and threw together + Tested another Logo quick..
It's the same as the first one but a different Main Logo. (download = post attachment)

love it! see if u can silhouette a face or a canadian leaf(flag?) in the reflection!:laugh:

@lenigma1too
Not a bad suggestion.
I imported a bunch of different CAN flags into the PhotoShop Plugin i am using on Fireworks
(Custom Reflection Maps) combined with the Alien Skin Glass effect but sadly it just wasn't working too good
I may have a another go at it to see if i can get something though.
I just wanted to acknowledge your suggestion and let you know i did look into it.
It did give me some ideas and experimenting is good so it wasn't a loss.
Feedback is welcome guys and do whatever you want with these i shared.

DarkFeather & Earth looks AMAZING!

Thanks i hope you guys like the Bootloader Menu buttons i took a long time on those.
If someone wanted them i can share the editable PNG's i used to make them.
I created one file with all options inside it..
I also have been using the DarkFeather one for myself ever since.
One thing i noticed is there is a difference in brightness between my phone and my PC.
So i sometimes i quickly go back and adjust the brightness to make the Logo way darker.
The Boot screen tends to make true black super bright

I'm actually scared to try this because, the boot menu buttons are different in my phone.. I think it's because I've an older bootloader? So This theme " might" mess up my bootloader.. So can you just send the logo.bin file for those 2 themes? Thanks in advance
Sent from my XT1521 using XDA-Developers mobile app

Quality workmanship... Lenotorola should b embarrassed!
Yeah dude, super impressed. As I stated before I have three of these phones, and I enjoyed your bootloader theme so much it's now on all three of them! Two of them are daily drivers, & third one is my ROM/App tester, as it has a small crack in the screen, thus ->> not a daily driver. Out of all the logo.bins' ive flashed, and mods installed, & Everything I've ever loaded, yours are by far the most detailed and beautifully constructed visuals I've ever had! And the details with the bootloader images & the buttons/keys & the front? Better than icing on the cake, it's like butter icing in a spoon (if that could be any better?!? Lolz!) Come to think of it, I think I've only ever encountered one other flash that change the font. Never mind changing all 27 images, centering them and graphic resizing them so it looks appropriate and proportional!
My hat goes off to you sir!
Its such a quality job, rest assured they will be on every Moto E 2nd edition I ever own, I ever fixed, or repair...
I somehow end up doing a lot of those last two things

@ lenigma1too
Thanks for the kind words
I did this for myself like i was saying when i seen how sloppy the default Moto buttons were.
It would be easy for me to make the txt in the menu items like the original bootloader (if you all want)
And yeah the TXT alignment was irritating the hell out of me on the original menu items.
They would jump around all over LOL
And to the other guy i have no reason to believe it would be a problem on your phone.
All these do is change the pictures.. that is it.
It does nothing else like modifying the Bootloader or changing fonts etc.
And i have been downloading and comparing Firmware packages since 5.0
And the stock Logo.bin from Motorola has never changed.
For example..
XT1527_SURNIA_RETCA_5.0.2_LXI22.50-53.8_cid14_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
MD5: af89b4f5f32b6a16e6b8611e5b7051e0
XT1527_SURNIA_RETUS_5.1_LPI23.29-18.9_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
MD5: af89b4f5f32b6a16e6b8611e5b7051e0
XT1527_SURNIA_RETCA_6.0_MPI24.65-39_cid14_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
MD5: af89b4f5f32b6a16e6b8611e5b7051e0
And MANY more i tested.. ALL them exact same !
One thing i did notice i think though is on Lollipop Bootloaders
the entry for WIFI Flash would show up and can be seen..
But On Marshmallow Bootloaders it's now gone.
It's the Bootloader that controls that stuff.. it decides.
I do not think WIFI Flash was ever implemented for real.
It was a beta feature in the works i seen after googling it recently back on Lollipop.
Which seems to be removed from Marshmallow (at least the visible text / menu entry anyway)
So guy..
I said in the first post either flash it with TWRP etc
OR.. just extract the Logo.bin file from the zip file and use ADB to flash it.
And if anyone is curious what is inside them just download "MotorolaBootLogoMaker"
then open the Logo.bin i shared and browse to see all the images. (or add you own instead etc)
Flashable zip files are just normal zip files guys.
So there is no point in me uploading the theme logo 2 times.
Also i had debated on sharing a different version of the planet one.
I had originally made it all blue using a color filter effect but i opted to share the full color one even though both looked good.
The other major reason i did these was the Bootloader menu options were so hard to read.
I wanted to make the text on the menu options way bigger.

I flashed it and man it looks so damn cool! Thanks @xpmule . Btw is there a way to freeze the phone at the bootlogo for a longer time so i can look it the cool logo ? Hehe
Edit:
This theme is so good it makes me want a special bootanimation.. Something like the Earth bootlogo, but the earth spins and u can see the cool lights as night approaches in different countries :silly::silly:

I do not think you can stop it..
Thanks for the feedback too
I also had thought of making an animated Bootlogo to go with these too.
To start a black background conversion of the original Animation
and then a couple variations too.
But i had issues with the tools and then keep forgetting.
One issue is most Logos's and animations are image based,
so if i took one of them and modded it i have to covert it to a video so i started looking into that
I know i can probably use ffmpeg via commandline but i wanted a program with a GUI (i found one)
SO there is more to come
It would make more sense to be calling it a Boot theme if included an Animation also.
i really just wanted a mod of the original one with black-backgrounds to make it easier on my eyes.
That is the main point here for all this..
In case you guys didn't know you can use ANY video as a Bootloader-Animation.
So the options are limitless. (You can also convert animated images into videos too)
But be careful installing the old style Moto v1 BootAnimations some of them may brick your phone.
*Some* of the older more common animated JPEG sets seem to work and other trap your phone into a bootloop
I know i did it myself LOL
What i did was get a BootAnimation zip that had inside it jpeg's (it was an official Moto one untouched with same 540x960)
But it got part way through then locked up.. my phone could not boot afterwards and i had to restore from a back-up.
You can tell them apart by opening any BootAnimation.zip file
then checking if you see a ton of jpeg's or 2 mp4 files (mp4 = new version on Moto E 2015)
The first mp4 is a short clip meant to play once then the 2nd super short one is meant to loop / repeat.
This make it last longer if the Booting takes longer than normal etc. (so the video animation can vary in length dynamically)
Lastly i did some digging and i got the Encoder settings for the official Motorola Boot Animations
And then i created a profile for the x264 encoder on Avidemux (to create video's exactly like the originals)
Blah blah blah
Point is i will work up some more stuff to share soon i think LOL

Menu Buttons Source
So i zipped up the source to the buttons and added them here as an attachment.
This includes the Font i used and the editable PNG and a note text file.
The text file lists the original + changed colors and names.
The font.zip has all Droid fonts but i only used "Droid Sans regular" 40 point (and Wingdings 3 default on Win7)
Note: the PNG has the two little arrows "grouped" together. (right click them and select un-group in Fireworks)
Only 1 text entry and arrow set should be visible then save..
Then on next button hide those and make 2 other ones visible and save again.
Then put them in MotoBootLogoMaker.. save, flash & boot
I have lots of weird fonts.. i could do the buttons in Klingon if needed but i was going for "normal" LOL
The point to this was i was just trying to make the menu buttons easier to read and maybe look a bit nicer.
But if anyone wants what i used to make their own mod feel free to do what ever you all want with this stuff.
Fonts included their respective license files (Apache)

Here is another another one just a different main logo.
This is the default Marshmallow BootLogo converted to a Black background.
It has a nice smooth result because i used a color filter to flip Black/White while keeping Color.
I also upped the DPI to 245 (from 72)
Couple quick notes..
First the original png can only be found inside the bootanimation.zip listed as SOL.png
If you go get the same picture from the stock Logo.bin it will be the old version
as seen on Lollipop Firmware's and on Current Marshmallow Firmware's.
Why care?
Because it's different.
It has subtle textures applied to it and a slightly different color of Blue.
It also matches the BootAnimation "Stitches" for Marshmallow by Motorola.
And yes i have started working on converting the animation to go with this too.
But it's a LOT of work !
I have made a test so far and the result is the video encoder i used is making the black a bit too bright.
And because of the background now being black the texture flickering is far more noticeable
then it is on the stock white one from Moto.
So i am not sure how the "Stitches" animation converted to Black is going to work out.
I guess i will finish making it soon and upload it and you all can decide..
In the meantime i uploaded here the Boot LOGO part as an attachment.. flashable.zip / tested
(hopefully you guys got what i meant by all this rambling)
EDIT:
Added the test MP4 video i was talking about earlier as a zipped attachment.
It's the 2nd part of the default MM animation with a Black background conversion.
You can all probably see how the Texture flickers and is noticeable in Black.
PS:
Let me know if these pictures are killing your browser.
I can re-size them smaller if they are too much..
EDIT2: "stitches update"
I changed tools and got a better more exact result using FFMPEG.exe
So far i completed the 2nd 4 second clip matching the encoder settings 99.99 exact as the original.
The next one is 14 seconds long so will be more work / time.
What i had to do was dump every single video frame out into a lossless image format
then apply a Photoshop Filter (using Fireworks) effect to each individual image frame one by one.
the 4 seconds clip required me editing 96 images totaling around 100mb's.
Thank god for keyboard shortcuts LOL
So i will for sure finish it up and test it then upload it soon guys.
To recap, this will be the Boot-Animation for Marshmallow called "Stitches" with a black background.
And it will match perfectly the Boot logo i uploaded on this comment v2.4
MotoBlack v2.4 "Stitches"​​

These are really great logos. My favorites are the Moto Black with the solid black background and the Moto Black Stitches. I have always liked the simple Motorola logo and these are super clean. Did the glass reflection logo get removed?
Thank you for your work.

Thanks for letting me know.
I did not make the Blue Glass Logo into a Logo.bin.
Was not sure it was good enough to be honest.
I posted it as sample to see if anyone was interested if i made it into a Logo.bin file.
I tend to like the simple ones myself and dark too.
Anything i have shared i hope is dark so the icons on the home-screen are easy to see.
I don't like bright wallpaper backgrounds they are too distracting.. and can be too bright i think.
There will be more uploaded i have some ideas i am working on.
If anyone has any suggestions feel free to post them. (or questions)
Thanks for the feedback :good:

@xpmule
What program did you use to modify the logo.bin file? I've tried what I found online to no avail.
Thank you.
