Boot animation preview [7/7/10] - Lucky Day

This is a tool for windows that will allow you to preview a boot animation (bootanimation.zip) file before applying it to your device. If you have the SDK in your environment path, it will also allow you to apply the boot animation to the device. I have tested about 50 boot animations and only had 2 that wouldn't load, and they didn't load because there was an invalid line in the desc.txt file.
Requirements
.NET Framework 4.0
Windows XP or later
Android SDK added to Environment path (to set the boot animation on the device, if you don't have it in the path, you just cant set it from the app)
Boot Animation files to open (you can pull one off your device @ /system/media/bootanimation.zip)

}
This is the dialog to create an animation, it takes a directory, analyzes the "parts" and creates the desc.txt from the values entered in the property grid. Then asks where to save the animation and names it based off the name of the folder.
The other feature that BAP offers, is the ability to export a boot animation as an animated GIF. It will try the best it can to create a gif that will do the animation justice. The export can take some time, and can be somewhat large, depending on the number of images, parts, and "loops" of the boot animation.
Below is an export of the CyanogenMOD 5.07-test2 boot animation
Here is the download for this boot animation, I do not remember where I found to, so if you created it please let me know and I link to your thread instead.
if your interested in more boot animations, here is my skydrive with all the boot animations I have. there may be some dupes in there.

Thanks very much for this. It will come in very handy.

I've made some updates to the application. It now gives you more control when exporting to a gif, you can set the quality and set how many times the "infinite loop" section should loop (if there is one that loops forever). These settings can decrease the size of the file, plus the amount of time it takes to create the animated gif. The better the quality, the longer it will take to process, also the more loops, the longer it will take and the gif will be larger.
See OP for new download.

Is it possible for you to upload the boot animation of the green android on the second GIF? I loved it and i would like to put it on my phone without flashing CM 5.0.7 (i have 5.0.6 already)
thank you.

I may just be misunderstanding how to operate this, but I unzipped the .exe to my sdk tools folder (where adb is located) and ran it from there, opened a random bootanimation, and then hit the phone icon. windows requested permission to run adb, so it appears to have found it, but when I rebooted the phone, my animation was unchanged.
Do I need to have the phone booted into recovery for this to work or have the .exe extracted elsewhere?

AWESOME! It's been an eternity of searching until I finally found this tool allowing me to export zip contents to gif! Thank you!!!

Is this for android 2 and newer versions, or it works and for 1.5, 1,6?

Bump,
Did the OP left this project or something?

sorry, im gon bump this also, but i sent an animation to my phone and it works. but when i flash new roms with diff animations... the animation doesnt change.
i want to know where it gets stored when its sent via the program. i searched in /system/media but the animation in there is the one from the recently flashed rom, and not the one i sent using the program.
so im kinda stuck and wondering now...

I would try checking /data/local/, as far as I am aware that is the only other place it can go.

well, i forgot to mention that... but i used 'astro' and 'andexplorer' but nothing was inside /data folder. so dunno whats up with that. dunno if its the app that doesnt actually show the files or what.
i havent really used adb to check it tho, cuz im not 2 sure how to do it either but... i dunno...

Those aren't very goof apps to be using as that is the problem. I suggest using something like Root Explorer or SUFBS instead, they are root file explorers.

sorry, i dont check this thread that often. Yes, it puts it creates /data/local/bootanimation.zip
If you cant find it using any file explorers for your phone, from a command line you can do
adb shell rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip

Thanks very much!
Now I can prview it in full quality and see if it's working!

thank you. i did get root explorer and was able to remove it through that.

Boot Animation Preview 1.5 uploaded and added to OP. This has some minor fixes in the animation algorithm and other little tweaks.
The main feature added is the ability to take a directory and turn it in to an animation. It will read the directory, and the "parts" in there. Then it generates the desc.txt from the values entered in the dialog, like FPS, size etc. Then it zips up the directory to a file named after the base directory.

I would love this boot animation as well ... could you upload it please?
EDIT: couldn't find the exact one but found some like it here
would still like the one you posted

Any chance of a Linux version of this program (Or at least one that runs in Mono)?
Ok, so it seems that since the application is targeted towards .net 4.0 which so far only SVN Mono supports. Is there something specific in .net 4.0 you are using in your app, or could it be compiled for .net 3.5 so it would (potentially) work in Mono as well?

Thx a lot - great Programm!
Opening the same animation which is already loaded will cause the program to crash
I need this BootAnimation you created a gif from - the one with the big android in the middle and the lightshow in the background =) where can i find it ?
Nik

He dose it again.
Amazing preview app, Fair play!!

ADDED: blue version requested by arodey
plain htc boot animation i made, let me know what you think about it, and what i can do to make it better.
to install you need to have the android sdk installed.
place the bootanimation.zip file into the tools directory of the sdk folder.
enable usb debugging on your phone, plug in your phone and choose charge only if prompted.
open a cmd prompt cd into the tools directory of the sdk folder.
first backup your old bootanimation with
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip.bak
exit
now push the new bootanimation with
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
to install the blue version:
Code:
adb push Blue.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
now test the new bootanimation by turning on the screen on your phone and entering
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
or you could just reboot your phone
hope you like it.

Looks good.
Perhaps you want to add something to do with android in there, or some indication that makes it yours. Its a good graphics piece but try to customize it to make it more your own.
To me it is very similar to the black HTC initial boot screen.
Nice work tho.

not gonna lie...i dig it! any chance of getting it in light blue (cyan)?

i used the white 2.1 htc boot screen to base this on, the lettering design is similar to the old one, I'm working on some animated droid images to add to this later to spice it up.

Like the blue in the second part of the thermo boot screen. And I like the minimalist look, just mho.

I'll try to get a new one up with the right color in the next day or so, but what are you having problems with making the boot screens i may be able to help?

Well here's a link to a version of the Matrix bootscreen from thematrixkid that I altered. I'm trying to get it to loop. I've had no luck.

I've attached a matrix version that should work, at least it did in the boot animation previewer.
there are several different ways to make the boot screens, but this is the easiest that i have found, first they must be image sequences in .png format, create two folders one labeled
Code:
part0
the other labeled
Code:
part1
part0 is where you put your first animation or images, this will only play once. part1 is where you place your loop animation, this part will loop until the phone has booted up.
when naming your images make sure they start with a name followed by a five number sequence
EXAMPLE:
Code:
htc_00000.png
htc_00001.png
--------------
htc_00099.png
htc_00100.png
make sure there in order from smallest number to the largest number, and remember you can't skip numbering it has to go in order.
what number you end with in the part0 folder you must start with the following number in the part1 folder like.
EXAMPLE:
Code:
part0
htc_00001.png
htc_00002.png
htc_00003.png
part1
htc_00004.png
htc_00005.png
htc_00006.png
now create the desc.txt file
EXAMPLE:
Code:
320 480 20
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
OK I'm just gonna touch bases on this but there is a great guide on here that I'll link to when i find it again, that describes it in detail.
Code:
320 480 20
320 480= screen size 20=frames per second
Code:
p 1 0 part0
p=pointer 1=play once 0=frame to freeze on part0=folder containing first images or animations.
Code:
p 0 0 part1
p=pointer 0=loop 0=frame to freeze on part1=folder containing images to loop
also try not to include a bunch of empty spaces in the text file when writing it.
EXAMPLE:
Code:
320 480 20[enter]p 1 0 part0[enter]p 0 0 part1
320 480 20[enter]
p 1 0 part0[enter]
p 0 0 part1
and last when packing it into a zip file, do not use compression on the .zip file. use 7zip, make sure these three things are in a folder part0, part1, desc.text select all three things at the same time, right click on them and choose 7ZIP>add to archive in the 7zip options choose store, name it bootanimation and hit ok to archive it.
whew this is one long post but i tried to cover about everything, if you have any trouble making these let me know and I'll try my best to help.

beautiful!

[BootAnimation] - Android Peeing on Apple

Here's the boot animation I created (attached). It's not a CWM flashable .zip, so you'll need to change the name to bootanimation.zip and either need to push it to /data/local through ADB, or use a File Explorer with root access to put in in /data/local (or if you're running a stock rooted ROM you'll need to rename it to ATT_Bootanimation.zip and put it in /system/customize/resource. It was just a .gif I found with a quick google search, and with the help of Wolf_2 finally got working properly. I take no credit for anything but putting it together as a boot animation

Original thread request:
OK, I'm trying to create my first boot animation, and so far have made some good progress, but now I'm stuck. I found an animated .gif of the Android Robot peeing on an Apple, and ripped the photos out of it, and made them .png files. I kept the file structure, created my new .zip following the guide here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942976), replaced bootanimation.zip in data/local, and changed permissions. Now when I boot up I see the HTC screen for about 15 seconds, then it goes to my animation just like it should, however here's my problem...
My animation consists of 17 images, and it flies through these images in about 5 seconds, then just sits on the last image. How can I either slow this animation down, or get it to keep looping? Here's what's in my desc.txt:
480 800 15p 1 1 android
I tried changing the second 1 to a 0 (as I saw somewhere else this would cause it to loop infinitely), but it didn't. Any ideas??

The 15 in your text stands for 15 fps, so with only 17 images to display it is going to fly through it. You should create more frames. You could also make the second folder for the loop, having a part0 and part1 folder in your zipped folder. The part0 folder would be the play through and the part1 folder would contain the loop. I have included my text document so that you can see the way I did it. I have also provided a link to a thread that helped me understand what needed to be done.

OK, I'll play around with the part0 and part1 folders. I left it the way it was when I pulled it and it only had an android folder, so I didn't know if this would be necessary or not. Thanks for the references!
Edit: You are awesome. I left part0 folder empty and put all my .png pics in part1, used your desc.txt exactly as it was, and it's doing exactly what I want it to! That was kind of fun, and now I can watch the MAC Apple getting peed on by the Android Robot when I start my phone. I've attached it if anyone's interested. I am not the artist, I found the animated .gif online, so no credit to me for that
Now - next question. If I put a different series of pictures in part 0, will this replace the HTC screen I see, or just create an additional boot image?

It will just create the boot animation. I am still trying to figure out where that HTC screen is located so that I can get rid of it or change it. As a note, just remember that the numbering sequence in the second folder has to continue from where the first folder left off. As an example, if the frames in the first folder finish with 00030, then the second folder would start with 00031 and continue. Glad that helped you.

If it's anything like the Captivate the HTC screen is in the kernel You'll have to decompile it.

Irs421: "If it's anything like the Captivate the HTC screen is in the kernel You'll have to decompile it."
I know it's hiding somewhere. TPC and I started working on themes, so since everything has been taken apart he or I will probably come across it eventually.

If you find out I would like to know to, so I can make a matching black htc splash screen. I know some one flashed it as an img through adb. Is there a way to see where exactly it is pushing it to?

I am not sure since I did not know about that adb push. I want to get rid of that screen also. When I find it I will let you know. There is just so much to go through and test. It's going to take a while.

You can use Android Flasher to replace the boot image, it's a really simple one click method.

Nice work, I turned your bootanimation into a downanimation. I optimized the graphics for a 480 x 800 screen and set it up to run through the complete shutdown. Do you mind if I post it? I will be sure to give you credit for creating the original.

[Boot Animation] Helix Android Animation

Hey all, I snagged some sweet Helix Android boot animations from THIS thread.
Here are some previews:

All I did was download the .zip files and extract the actual boot animations. What you need to do is download the TMUS_bootanimation.zip file and place it in your /system/customize/resource folder and it will replace the existing boot animation. Then long-press on the file and change permissions to rw-r--r-- (hopefully that makes sense if you done this before.) That's all you need to do. Then reboot and enjoy!
Files:
Red Helix Boot Animation
Green Helix Boot Animation
11/11/11
I decided to update the green boot animation cause I reinstalled it on my phone - I lowered the FPS from 45 to 20 so it runs really smooth and nice. Here's the link:
http://www.multiupload.com/T046GTG8E4

good find!!!
I was using the "Sky Raider" from UOT Kitchen but I'm switching to the Red Helix right now

Hey I really like the Red Helix. However, it seems to run through the animation sequence awfully fast on my phone (way faster then is displayed when viewing the OP through the link you provided).
pmcqueen posted White Nexus boot animation and noted that you could: "modify how fast it goes by changing the third value (framerate) in the desc.txt file"
I tried that earlier today on a bootanimation.zip that I downloaded from UOT Kitchen. I extracted the desc.txt file from the zip, edited it in Notepad++ by just changing the 3rd number to a lower number and then replacing the original desc.txt file in the zip and it worked great.
For some reason the same method doesn't work on the Helix bootanimation though. I extracted the desc.txt, changed the fps from 45 to 30 and replaced the desc.txt in the zip file and then proceeded to replace the current boot animation with this one following these steps posted by pmcqueen:
"Instructions for installation:
(using file explorer like root explorer)
download the zip, place on sd card.
find the zip in your file browser and move it to /system/customize/resource/ (overwrite existing bootanimation file)
change permissions to rw-r--r-- (read/write owner, read for group/others)"
Instead of getting a slower frame though, I just get black screen during the time when I should be seeing boot animation.
Is there something different about this file that I can't change the framerate or am I not doing this correctly?

My guess is that you compressed desc.txt when you made the changes. Make sure you aren't compressing any of the files in the bootanimation or you'll get the black screen. If you use winrar (or any other compressed archive viewer) it should tell you whether or not the file is compressed. Make sure any changes you make are put back in the archive as "store only" (ie no compression). Good luck!

Thanks I did get to work.
I ended up slowing the Red Helix down to 20 FPS and it's running through the boot sequence at a good speed now. It seems like every boot animation I've tried so far runs faster than intended on my phone though which I find strange.

Yeah I noticed that, too. I wonder if it's because our phone is actually faster at processing the graphics and that's why it seems so fast specifically on this phone? When I get some time I'll slow them both down and add a link. Thanks for your input!

pretty colors ... i like the green one thanks lol

This is not a flashable zip.

Do like. Do like alot!
WAY better than the creepy CID logo where just the very bottom was animated. Dark backgrounds just work better as boot animations. It looks cleaner and more professional somehow.
The only thing I might add is a big "X" (For 10) thats 'slashed' into the background. By slashes I mean something like this Wolverine image...
...only 2 slashes forming an X.
so the circle logo does it's thing, then slash 1, slash 2, and a white glow from behind the background.

tested on cm9...works well
looks more beautiful now:good:

Is this a flashable zip? What is the resolution?
I would like to use it on my Milestone 2 but I read on some threads that after boot phone screen just goes black...

Assuming you have the Sensation, this may not work.. you are 540 x 960px and this is only 800px vertical(portrait)
Not flash'able. Ive done a whole lot of research on this bootani and soo many different people think they can flash it or don't know their screen res or don't see its a file that you choose whether to have it portrait or landscape...(Hence, 15MB+ file..durr) So, what you do is find out your vertical screen res, open the 'vertical' folder, choose your resolution# and there will be a 'bootanimation.zip' there. Move that file to your sdcard, from your sdcard to /system/media, you should have your original bootani there so make sure to save it somewhere handy, then change your permissions to rw-r-r-- once you've moved your new bootanimation there. However, this worked on my Epic 4G, so Idk how this works with other phones but I thought I'd give ya a little guidance!
welcome

Originally, this was the vertical 540x540 bootanimation from the original CM download. I edited it to be 540x960, so that it will fit Sensation/Amaze 4g and any other phone with that resolution. If you want to apply to it on a different phone, TRY and edit the desc.txt file to your phones resolution then rezip the file with "store" compression. No promises that it will fit perfect though.

Good lord, people. Its a boot animation, not a space shuttle launch.
Just try it and see if it works on your phone's screen size. If it doesnt it will either look wacky or you will get the stock ANDROID boot animation. But tbe phone will still boot, at which point you can change the non working animation to something else
You cant screw up your phone by trying it.
If you have a sensation, this .zip animation works. Period.
It doesnt matter what rom you are running or what version of the rom you are running.
If you want to use it on ARHD, AOKP,CM, or even stockroms, it will work. Bootanimations are not rom specific. (Though sense roms store the animation files in a different spot than aosp roms)

Anyway you can add the 2nd patch that has CyanogenMod instead of Cyanogen(mod)? Thanks

Here.
They have this on the Galaxy SIII forum as a flashable zip. I pulled the bootanimation.zip file out of the flashable zip and just posted it here as a regular bootanimation file that can be copied using ES File Explorer or the like.
It's a 540x540 file but I assure you it works. I've already installed it and looked at it. Android will center the animation on the screen. it doesn't need to be 540x960 natively.
Put it in /system/media and change the permissions to give it read write and execute permissions. Enjoy.
If you really want the flashable zip the Galaxy SIII forum is here. But it's like 10 times faster to just move the file using File Explorer.
