Took me about the whole day, I started off from not even knowing what the hell a desc.txt to successfully making this boot animation all by myself.
I kinda feel proud
The quality is kind of low ress, this is my first work, so I will refine it, but I want to share what I got so far.
Suggestions and feedback are certainly welcomed!
Please tell me what you think about it.
Make sure to do a Nandroid backup!
It's signed and zipped, so all you gotta do is install from recovery no need to push.

I am actually going to be working on a Modern Warfare/Black Ops version here in a couple weeks. I can put together a short tutorial for you via PM if you need, in the meantime though there should be some out there already. Just do a search and some should pop up.

I've searched for a tutorial but all I find is the file structure for the desc.txt file. I need a tutorial more on the lines of the tools used to capture video and convert to pngs. I'll take one of those tutorials if you don't mind. Or a link to one.

I use IrfanView to convert files to pngs(and to see every frame of the clip) and windows live movie maker works for capture. hope that helps
ps was told by another member(crankanug) that jpegs work too and helps keep file size down
pseudoremora may have put up some stuff too(was helping me with one i'm messing around with)

Sweet. Thanks. I'll try those out.

Indeed, this was a good one to port. Tortuga, let me know if you need help getting the signal icons ported over, you may need to find a red theme from the fascinate to find them - vibrant doesnt seem to have the same icons as us for signal and data. Oh and tortuga, I told you to use drop box to upload something quick for me - but for these I would be using a free hots as the traffic you may get may shut your dropbox down. Try www.fileserve.com

Been working on it a little bit and figured out a fix for the phone and messaging icons on the home screen.
Still digging at it, I will post an update when the time comes.

I'm sorry if this has been answered already, but I was wondering if the black task bar if something that can be seperated and added to whatever rom our lack there of you may be using. Something along the same lines as the way you can change boot animations? Thanks for all the hard work you guys do.

Open source man I always make sure to give credit and link back, as well as a thank you.

Made a few changes, Icons fixed.

Any chance someone could make just a standard gingerbread or maybe a blue one? I'm not much into red but I really like the look of it.

looks good...let me know if you need the matching pulldown icon for vibrate....i can theme it quickly to match the rest

Added EB16 to the list.

When I select eb16 it says I'm downloading ea11. Is this right? Also I am doing this from my phone so maybe that's why....

[Boot Animation] Sega Genesis Sonic boot up

The last console I owned was a Sega Genesis... Not much of a gamer now but this makes me nostalgic. This is my first crack at making something like this so go easy on me!
I made audio to go along with it.. it syncs up well on my Evo running CM7.. Adds some swooshing sounds while sonic runs by and the ever popular SEEEEGGGGAAAAAAAAA sound.

Just as soon as I have 8 posts I can add the animated GIF...
I posted it over on the cyanogenmod forums as well with the gif. I could link you...but I don't have enough posts. =)
Also... not flashable!

well, keep posting! hows the weather there?

Hah! Good idea. I would have just spammed the 8 posts but they also impose a 5 minutes between posts rule for n00bz, and I have a short attention span.

Eight! I will add the GIF to the first post...

ugh, i always forget how to push these things...its always quirky for me. i should just write down the exact steps...

How do you get the sound to work? I've tried adding sounds files to different boot animations by copying the file to /system/media but it's never worked for me.

Not sure about other AOSP roms.. I am running CM7.
To get it working under CM7, I first flashed the transformers audio zip from this link:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/7433-flashable-zip-boot-screen-audio/
It includes a script which enables boot screen audio.
Then, replace the android_audio.mp3 file in /system/media with any other mp3 -- in this case, you would use the one I have provided.. just rename to android_audio.mp3.

No idea.. I ripped the frames from a youtube video of it.. I am not an advanced photoshop user. =) Probably would be pretty easy for someone who is.

Nvidia Boot Animation [8.11.11]

First things first... if you don't know what you're doing, I suggest you read as much as possible on XDA regarding bootanimation.zip files before attempting this to gain a better understanding. 2nd, if you break your ****, it isn't my fault. 3rd , make a backup for the love of god. Additionally, beyond this post I will NOT support this further.
Alright, this is the first time I've ever attempted to do one of these and it's a little bit tougher than it looks. I pulled images from youtube of the Nvidia gaming boot/splash screen and went through one by one, resized, retouched etc...
It looks pretty cool and I created a custom graphic at the end.
It was extracted from this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhEEUkJL4iM frame-by-frame.
I added this image to the end, it "loops" for a second right after the nvidia screen and right before the phone boots.

I would included video of the whole thing but I've already spent a lot of time on it, maybe I'll do it later.
I use this with MIUI, not sure what else it will work on.
A sound goes with it, I got the sound from Avetny's animation thread, not sure who the original author was, but thanks to Avetny! You can also download the file from the MIUI theme manager if you're there, makes this process easier also.
Instructions:
If it works for CM7,, these will most likely be the instructions... adb push or use root explorer or equivalent to move bootanimation.zip into /system/media.
1) If you're using MIUI, first, download the nvidia boot sound from the online theme manager and also a boot animation.
2) Then, copy my bootanimation.zip file into /data/system/theme/boots (if you dont have the theme folder, create it to make the theme manager work in the first place).
3) Ensure your bootaudio.mp3 file is also in the same folder /boots or /media based on your rom.
All done! Enjoy! Remember to say thanks!

Thanks, it works on CM7 Nightly 103. The video size is a bit small but overall it looks nice.

Yea bit small but works on Weapon G2x rom
Sent from my G2x Weapon

It's small b/c the images are 480X480 and the desc file has the images as 480x480. So this will be "small" on all G2x displays, but I don't think it's really that small.
Anyway, here is a gif for you to preview it. The speed is close but not quite correct. The NVIDIA portion comes first and then the Android loops till the phone boots.

found that boot audio on theme manager on miui but i cant download? it doesnt give me any icon to download or install!
how can i download that audio with theme manager?

Make sure to create that theme folder first

NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP. Just extract it and use a custom launcher to change any icons on your homescreen/'desktop' .

Icon Pack 2
I'm making an icon pack, and figured I'd show what I've made thus far to you guys. I would have an apk at the ready, but constantly having trouble getting the hang of making an apk . For now I have a zip with the current icon, if you guys like them, can change icons on your homescreen to them that way for now. I also haven't figured out a name lol.​
If anyone has any suggestions, just let me know and I'll add them.
I am kinda slow at updating, I do construction and am normally BEAT by the end of the day, so I'm a bit slow. Sorry
There are two icon packs I'm working on. Do leave feedback on which you prefer please, thanks
I also make wallpapers. You want any and/or wanna make a request, here over to it and check it out

Anyone have an helpful insight on making an apk? I've looked at text based tutorials, youtube based tutorials. Everytime I eventually get errors while following the steps exactly. I don't know if there are things when setting up Eclipse with ADT that need to be done, but I'm clueless lol.

I can make the installer but you would have to know where the "icons" are going to be pushed .

Any chance of hitting me up with a PM/Hangout/IRC or something. Maybe help me out a bit. I'm pretty tech savvy, use linux(Debian, but might be giving Crunchbang a go soon) as my OS, etc, so you wouldn't have to overkill explain lol. I'd like to learn that stuff myself, but like I said, constantly come into these errors even though I'm doing the tutorial step-by-step.
Even TeamSpeak would work out . Just, again, it'd be nicer to know myself lol. Then I wouldn't have to go to someone else/ 'rely' on someone else

What you guys think of the Play Books icon?
These icons are 512x512, btw, so they may look meh around the edges, but once they are shrunken down, they look really good.

OP updated with zip containing updated 'current' icons. More are in it

OP updated again with more icons in the zip. Now 1b. I don't know if this will be a permenant version scheme, but for now, it works lol.

Okay OP updated again, zip has even more icons. I'm not sure, but should have all the stock GAPP icons in it. If I've missed any, let me know. I'm gonna start working on random apps on the playstore, now. By random, I mean non-google lol like Whatsapp, Dead Trigger 2, etc etc.
If there is a game/app you want a custom icon for that isn't a very popular app, just let me know and I'll put it in a list to make.
