This thread will show you how to do a couple things.
a) Install a custom boot animation.
b) Randomize your boot animation so each time you reboot, you get a different boot animation (only available with pro version of the app I use).
I'll be updating the thread every few days with new animations until I get a pretty good library. If I'm really super motivated, I might accept boot animation requests. Otherwise, all you need is the boot animation factory linked at the bottom of this thread.
REQUIREMENTS:
-You need to be rooted.
-You need an unlocked bootloader (only if AT&T or Verizon).
-You need a kernel that supports custom boot animation (Faux, Ktoonsez, any AOSP kernel - I'm currently using SlimBean 5.6).
-You *might need to have an AOSP ROM. I have not tried stock rooted TouchWiz yet.
Okay, here's how you do custom boot animations!!!
1) Install ROM Toolbox Lite (consider upgrading to the pro version).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wyLDEsImNvbS5qcnVtbXkubGliZXJ0eS50b29sYm94Il0.
*Note, there are other ways to install boot animations, but those methods are not supported in this thread.
2) Copy the boot animation file(s) to your internal or external SD card. It doesn't matter which. Nor does it matter what folder you put them into.
3) Open ROM Toolbox Lite:
4) Close out of the disclaimer:
5) From the main menu, just swipe your finger to scroll to the right:
6) Now you're at the Interface tab. Click on Boot Animations:
7) You can click on "later" to not upgrade. But I do recommend upgrading. This is a VERY cool app:
8) Click "OK" to the disclaimer:
9) From the "Server" tab, you can download boot animations. But you don't want to, because none of them are 1080x1920 and will look "small" on your screen:
10) Instead, swipe to the right so you an view the "Randomize" tab. Read the info if you like:
11) Now swipe to the left to the "Local" tab. And navigate to the folder where you stored your boot animations that you have downloaded from this thread:
INSTALLING A SINGLE BOOT ANIMATION FROM THE FREE VERSION OF ROM TOOLBOX:
1) Single-click on any boot animation you see in this folder:
2) Click on "Install".
3) Reboot phone and on the first (OR SECOND) reboot, you should see your boot animation and it should fill the 1080x1920 screen.
INSTALLING RANDOM BOOT ANIMATIONS IF YOU UPGRADED TO THE PRO VERSION OF ROM TOOLBOX:
1) At the "Randomize" tab, move the sider to the "On" position (top right of screen):
2) Swipe left to the "Local" tab:
3) Single-click a boot animation and select the "Add to randomizer" option (repeat for each boot animation you want):
4) If you're on the free version of ROM Toolbox, you'll be prompted to upgrade. Select either "Unlock boot randomizer" or "ROM Toolbox Pro". The Pro version is more expensive, but it unlocks every option the app has. And there are lots of cool options. Choice is up to you:
5) Since I already paid for the pro version, I installed that:
6) Now click on "open":
7) Go through the steps again and grant Root Permissions when prompted (your Superuser request may be different looking than mine):
8) Ignore the disclaimer:
9) When you finish adding boot animations to the randomizer, your "Randomize" tab will look similar to this. Now you're ready to reboot over and over and over and enjoy all your new boot animations!
Thank you to JaeKar99 for creating or sourcing all the boot animations that I modified to work in 1080x1920 resolution for our Galaxy S4 phones.

Hey, you're right. I just checked and it looks like speedo, spyro and warpvortexr are all corrupted files. I'll re-do them in the next couple-days and re-upload.

Not working for you?
Finally found the solution in a thread by anbech, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897969
Use the CWM_CustomBootanimation_421_Enable.zip. It's for the S3, but works fine on the S4.
Just because the kernel supports it doesn't mean the system does. This flashes the file "bootanimation" to the /system/bin folder. That file is already there, so I made a copy of the existing one before overwriting it with this (just in case).
I'm not using ROM Toolbox, I just copy my animation (bootanimation.zip) to the /system/media folder since I don't change it often, but it should work.
The link above also has a good tutorial on making boot animations.
By the way, I'm using agat's kernel.

This is the first ROM I want to share. It is based on the online kitchen from MoDaCo. I used the latest version, r8. It includes 'Link2SD' by bakpinar.
I removed most of the wallpapers, and some of the applications. The most important changes:
Gallery replaced with the 32bit Gallery3D Mod - thanks to SilentMobius
Notion Ink keyboard - thanks to gojimi at XDA developers with my own graphic mod
ZEAM launcher as default - thanks to cloakt at XDA developers.
iWnnIME - Japanese keyboard (stripped from a Softbank Japan HTC Desire by myself)
Titanium Backup - thanks to Joël Bourquard - Market link.
No ads host file - thanks to dnlgee
DOS like bootanimation - thanks to original_ganjaman from XDA developers
I know the ZEAM launcher is no longer under development. But for me it runs smooth and fast. I run it on my tablet with 8 columns and 7 rows on 5 screens and still the scrolling is very fast and nearly without any lag. If you don't like it, you can of course replace it with any other launcher of your choice.
For the installation you have 3 options:
For all options first download the ZIP file from here, extract it to a directory on your PC/MAC/Linux machine.
Option 1 is for flashing the file with an USB cable:
Ensure you have USB debugging enabled on your device (enabled in Settings->Applications->Development)
If you are using Windows, your USB 'Android Developer Bridge' driver MUST be the one included in this download (use 'Have Disk' functionality in device manager to change if required)
Connect your device to your PC
At a command prompt / terminal, ensure you are in the directory you extracted the files, and run 'install-windows.bat', './install-linux.sh' or './install-mac.sh' as appropriate
Wait for your device to reboot!
Option 2 is for flashing through wireless ADB (only Windows):
Setup your WiFi ADB that it works through port 5555. Start your WiFi ADB app on your tablet. I prefer ADB over WIFI Widget, but there are other apps available.
Write down the IP address the WiFi ADB gives you.
Edit "install-windows-wifi.bat" (in the directory you extracted the files) and change line 13 => adb-windows.exe connect 192.168.1.15. Put the IP address of your tablet (from the WiFi ADB) instead of "192.168.1.15"
Ensure you have USB debugging enabled on your device (enabled in Settings->Applications->Development)
If you are using Windows, your USB 'Android Developer Bridge' driver MUST be the one included in this download (use 'Have Disk' functionality in device manager to change if required)
At a command prompt / terminal, ensure you are in the directory you extracted the files, and run 'install-windows-wifi.bat'
Wait for your device to reboot!
Option 3 is for flashing through ClockWorkRecovery.
Rename the downloaded file to "update.zip" and copy it to the root of your SD card
Restart your device in recovery mode
PERFORM A NANDROID BACKUP FROM THE MENU
Select the option to apply an update zip, and select the zip file you copied to your memory card
After successful flashing reboot your device
If you get problems with the USB drivers or have other difficulties, check "Advent Vega - ROMs / Software Updates / Guides / How Tos, Links to ROMs, Flash Updates, Guides, Misc apk's" on MoDaCo. There you find help for nearly every possible problem.
And as usual, I take no responsibility if you brick your device, delete all important data on your SD-card or get divorced because you spent more time with your Android tablet than with your wife. You do all this on your own risk!
And here are some screenshots:
The wallpaper you see here is the default wallpaper. I deleted all other wallpapers and there are no live wallpapers in the ROM anymore.

Oh, I forgot another small graphic change:
I changed the icons for home, menu and back in the notification bar a little bit. I didnt like the red color in the icons and changed it to green.
Portrait view:
The wallpaper is perfect dimensioned to match landscape and portrait modes. Thanks a lot to thedicemaster on MoDaCo for the tips how to achieve it.
And of course after you install the ROM, all pages are as empty as this one. The widgets you see on the other screenshots are all installed from the market.
And for the people who went thru the whole post, but didn't see the download link.
DOWNLOAD FROM HERE!
Hi there.
Which rom have you flashed this too. As far as i am aware it changes the framework back to the one in v1.08. So if flashed to v1.09 you may gain the small taskbar but as far as i am aware you will lose the full screen notifications. So you end up with a bit of a mutant rom, parts from v1.08 and v1.09.
Good to see my bootscreen is being enjoyed

As Paul's kitchen is based on 1.08 (the kitchen had its last update before the release of 1.09) my ROM is on the 1.08 framework. And it doesn't have the full screen notifications, you are right with this.
Your bootanimation is really nice, I just changed the ROM version on the first 30 pictures And in my personal ROM I show instead of the ROM version the owner info, just in case I loose my tablet somewhere
OK. I did make it very clear i did not want my work edited and posted in a thread other than the one i posted it in. I ask nothing for my work apart from this rule.
As long as you have left the "BOOT by original_ganjaman" i am happy. If not then please remove it.
Might be worth putting a warning to people about it being based on v1.08.
Good to see more people developing are vegas, keep up the good work

I do not think that there is a problem with v1.08 as I my download is not an add-on, but a full ROM. You flash it and v1.08 is gone. There will be no mix between mine (MoDaCo's actually) and v1.08
Thats fine mate. I did not know pauls new release was a full rom. i thought it just effectively adb pushed the files over, leaving some previous rom files behind. Might still be nice to warn people it is v1.08 based.
Keep up the good work

Requests
If any one has an animated gif they want turned into a boot screen, I'll make it for you. All I need you to do is give me the gif and I'll make it, and put it in a zip for you. If you want sound I'll experiment and see if I can make one.
Here are the three from the second post
*These ARE flashable through cwm recovery!*
for anyone that's curious I am making an Ubuntu boot screen.
Here is a "black stock boot animation" I made upon request.
I used the generic one, worked great! Thanks a lot!
I am glad you liked it .
Man, could you make this into a boot for me?
This is flashable through cwm if you are using an inspire 4g. If you are using it on another phone let me know because I will have to adjust the resolution.
Great man, I appreciate it, but when I tried to flash it, it failed, and when I manually did it, it just shows up a black screen.
I flashed it earlier. I had to wipe restore and then flash it again and it worked. If you made a nandroid back up restore and try to flash again. I promise it works and looks good .
I am using the inspire boot animation keep up the good work.

Worked first time once I used root explorer and copied to \data\local
Glad I could help !
Hi,
Could you make a boot animation using this image?
This is from a free wallpaper site.
I don't want it to be a flashable file. I need to manually replace a bootanimation file in a specific directory myself for the ROM I'm using.
I think it looks cool, and I'd love it if you can do this.
GT
To be honest with something like that since its not an animated .gif. I would have to use illustrator to vector it then animate it. It would take a while to do. Even if I made it with my 3d program. If you could find an animated gif I would be more then willing to convert it for you and give you the zip.

Forgive me if something similar was already posted, but I did not see a Sensation specific posting of this animation.
I went through and modified the frames to allow for more accuracy in terms of specs for our devices.

BTW: if somebody gets standard bootanimation after replacing try following:
- flash via adb
- power down the sensation
- remove battery and place it in again
- start your phone!
hehe looking good bro

Here are instructions I copied from another boot animation thread (saved me from typing them!!! Lol!)....
Instructions to install:
[NOTE YOU MUST HAVE YOUR DEVICE S-OFF BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS]
1.Back-up stock boot animation (if you want to) which is found in /system/customize/resource using root explorer or ES file explorer
2.Delete the stock boot animation after backing up and replace it with the bootanimation.zip included in this post in the same directory as before
Then reboot!
Simples!
@AndroTMO
Nice animation by the way, any chance of a Splash screen to match? Perhaps just the Energy Star logo + sensation details (ie the 1st frame of the animantion) with the "HTC quietly brilliant" logo beneath?
awesome bootscreen! got anything for us on the downscreen along similar lines?

This method works perfectly except for one difference for T-mobile users- TMOUS people running the stock ROM need to replace the TMOUS_bootanimation.zip instead of the bootanimation.zip.

FYI- I found the down animations in the same folder as the boot animations.
Thanks for the #11 post.
Now that my device has S-OFF I would like this boot loader.
I see the path you mentioned using root explorer, but not sure how to get the downloaded files from my computer to the directory on the HTC Sensation.
Any advice please?
T.I.A.
All you have to do is connect your phone via USB & drag the file to your SD card. Then, use Root Explorer(market app) to copy them to the proper directory & rename them. Make sure you copy the original animations to somewhere safe on your SD card just in case you need to restore them for any reason.

Happen to remember the name of the .zip that is needed? I no longer have a down anim due to my ROM.
Is it called downanimation.zip
I like it. Unfortunately, it's the wrong resolution for sensation. 480x800 instead of 540x960 so it looks interpolated and blurry ;/
Edit: here's a modded 540x960 version I just whipped up.

I used this one and it looks great, thanks! Just for fun I also took the first image from the boot sequence and flashed that as my splash screen to replace the white screen with HTC on it prior to the boot animation.
Now when I turn on my phone, the splash screen comes up as the Energy Star image with some text, then once it goes to the boot animation it just looks like its still booting up. Kinda cool I think.
Thanks again!

can i apply this for my phone with pyramid 3d rom?
WARNING: I am NOT responsible if you damage your device!
Hi i9003-Community,
I have created a new bootanimation for our i9003 with it's native 480x800px. It's colors are kept in a black and ICS-blue colored style. The animation is made out of two parts, that normally should roughly fit the time our device needs to boot up. I also have attached a matching bootlogo to make the fake boot sequence look even more complete. I hope you enjoy my work. Any feedback is very welcome.
Loading Bar Bootanimation (ICS-Blue)The animation is split into two parts:
A loading bar that is slowly filling (left picture)
Full loading bar with wait animation (right picture)

Note to installation of bootanimation with changed speeds:
The file "bootanimation - speed <mult>x.zip" has to be renamed to "bootanimation.zip" before you install the animation
Change-Log:
22.01.12 - v1.1
added some nice extra animation
more frames
although the animation is much bigger now I did not face any longer boot times
added device name to animation
made loading bar look a bit better
thanks to HeathenMan for optimizing the image size
Installation for UtterChaos Kernel and amit.bagaria's CF-Root and CWM5 Kernel:
Push the attached zip file renamed to bootanimation.zip to /system/media/ and replace the original bootanimation.zip
Don't forget to create a backup!!
Loading Bar Bootlogo (ICS-Blue)
Change-Log:
22.01.12 - v1.1
added horizontal line as in animation to device name
made loading bar look a bit better
Installation for UtterChaos Kernel:
First, if not already done you need to enable custom bootlogos (as written here):
Download the modifier-XXKPQ-bootlogo.tar from above linked post and check it's md5 hash to make sure that the file is not damaged
Reboot into download mode
Connect your device via USB and start ODIN
Flash the downloaded file as PDA
Now flash UC-Kernel
On your device open the folder /mnt/.lfs/ with RootExplorer and create a backup of your logo.jpg.
(or "adb pull /mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg path/on/your/computer/logo.jpg")
Extract the attached zip and replace the original logo.jpg with the new image.
(or "adb push path/on/your/computer/logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg")
Installation for amit.bagaria's CF-Root and CWM5 Kernel:
First, if not already done you need to enable custom bootlogos (as written here):
Download the Extra Version of amit's CF-Root from here
Reboot into download mode
Connect your device via USB and start ODIN
Flash the downloaded file as PDA
On your device open the folder /mnt/.lfs/ with RootExplorer and create a backup of your logo.jpg, if there is one.
(or "adb pull /mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg path/on/your/computer/logo.jpg")
Extract the attached zip and replace the original logo.jpg with the new image.
(or "adb push path/on/your/computer/logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg")
For other Kernels:
I do not know if this also works with other Kernels, search in your Kernels thread if it supports custom bootlogos. If it does follow the instructions in this thread to enable and install an custom bootlogo.
Thanks, it looks really good, problem is my phone is in service center hehehe
Nice work buddy
Thank you guys.
Attached a bootlogo to OP
Interesting .Congratulations .
I flashed the cf-root and have not seen the original animation.
If I do not see your animation even
how do I do?
i cant edit anything under mnt/.lfs if i try copy paste i get error msg disk full copy error and all files inside of folder dissapeared,i tried deleting original logo.jpg says successfull but file is back after re opening folder,animation is working.
sir can you go at doom's kernel thread and you may see there the instruction on how to change the boot logo...
@ Taraen
great work buddy

amit's CF-Root? Have you deactivated the bootanimation with tools like Blade Buddy that set debug.sf.nobootanimation = 1?

Do you have a Kernel that has enabled custom bootlogos? Did you mount as read/write first?

I edited the OP to redo layout and make the installation instructions for the bootlogo more detailed.
Good one!
Loved it!
Will Flash it when the MIUI thingy is done

No, I used to root for ganeshbiyer xxkpq.
How do I reactivate the boot loader?

Hmm, I could you try amit's CF-Root or UC-Kernel? I really don't have any idea what causes the problem, if it's kernel related or a system setting.

Could you please edit your post so that you don't quote the whole OP? That makes the thread so hard to read.
The zip with the bootanimation contains a file called desc.txt
Code:
480 800 5
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
The number in the first line, last column describes the speed the animation is played with. I decreased it from 30 to 5, but if that is too slow for your phone you can increase the number to some value you like.
I will now upload two other versions of the bootanimation with 1,5x and 2x speed of the original.
Taraen
man at speed 10 it is perfect many thanks
Man, I'm working on a rom. Can I use this bootanimation as default for it? Thanks!
This thread will show you how to do a couple things.
a) Install a custom boot animation.
b) Randomize your boot animation so each time you reboot, you get a different boot animation (only available with pro version of the app I use).
I'll be updating the thread every few days with new animations until I get a pretty good library. If I'm really super motivated, I might accept boot animation requests. Otherwise, all you need is the boot animation factory linked at the bottom of this thread.
REQUIREMENTS:
-You need to be rooted.
-You need an unlocked bootloader (only if AT&T or Verizon).
-You need a kernel that supports custom boot animation (Faux, Ktoonsez, any AOSP kernel - I'm currently using SlimBean 5.6).
-You *might need to have an AOSP ROM. I have not tried stock rooted TouchWiz yet.
Okay, here's how you do custom boot animations!!!
1) Install ROM Toolbox Lite (consider upgrading to the pro version).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wyLDEsImNvbS5qcnVtbXkubGliZXJ0eS50b29sYm94Il0.
*Note, there are other ways to install boot animations, but those methods are not supported in this thread.
2) Copy the boot animation file(s) to your internal or external SD card. It doesn't matter which. Nor does it matter what folder you put them into.
3) Open ROM Toolbox Lite:
4) Close out of the disclaimer:
5) From the main menu, just swipe your finger to scroll to the right:
6) Now you're at the Interface tab. Click on Boot Animations:
7) You can click on "later" to not upgrade. But I do recommend upgrading. This is a VERY cool app:
8) Click "OK" to the disclaimer:
9) From the "Server" tab, you can download boot animations. But you don't want to, because none of them are 1080x1920 and will look "small" on your screen:
10) Instead, swipe to the right so you an view the "Randomize" tab. Read the info if you like:
11) Now swipe to the left to the "Local" tab. And navigate to the folder where you stored your boot animations that you have downloaded from this thread:
INSTALLING A SINGLE BOOT ANIMATION FROM THE FREE VERSION OF ROM TOOLBOX:
1) Single-click on any boot animation you see in this folder:
2) Click on "Install".
3) Reboot phone and on the first (OR SECOND) reboot, you should see your boot animation and it should fill the 1080x1920 screen.
INSTALLING RANDOM BOOT ANIMATIONS IF YOU UPGRADED TO THE PRO VERSION OF ROM TOOLBOX:
1) At the "Randomize" tab, move the sider to the "On" position (top right of screen):
2) Swipe left to the "Local" tab:
3) Single-click a boot animation and select the "Add to randomizer" option (repeat for each boot animation you want):
4) If you're on the free version of ROM Toolbox, you'll be prompted to upgrade. Select either "Unlock boot randomizer" or "ROM Toolbox Pro". The Pro version is more expensive, but it unlocks every option the app has. And there are lots of cool options. Choice is up to you:
5) Since I already paid for the pro version, I installed that:
6) Now click on "open":
7) Go through the steps again and grant Root Permissions when prompted (your Superuser request may be different looking than mine):
8) Ignore the disclaimer:
9) When you finish adding boot animations to the randomizer, your "Randomize" tab will look similar to this. Now you're ready to reboot over and over and over and enjoy all your new boot animations!
Thank you to JaeKar99 for creating or sourcing all the boot animations that I modified to work in 1080x1920 resolution for our Galaxy S4 phones.

Thank you to jsho31 on XDA for pointing me to ROM Toolbox (which I already had but didn't realize it had the boot animation randomizer - which is awesome!)

My personal favorite is a stone countdown or something like that. but im currently not running anything that allows custom roms. I will say if you need to resize the thing from rom tool box, i know in the width i was around 1000-1100 while height was around 1900 for it to scale to the screen.
Absolutely amazing guide. A lot of new people have difficulties following some peoples directions, but with your pic by pic AND very thorough guide I can't see how anyone could ever mess this up!

You can take any animation you like and use Samsung Theme Designer to turn it into an animation that will work on a stock ROM. All you need is to be rooted.
Our S4 animations need to be set to 1020 width and 1920 height. Basically, the 1080P resolution reversed.

I am using the Faux kernel, but the new bootscreens never show up. My GS4 is MDL rooted with stock rom.
Doesn't work for me either

+1 doesn't work for me either. I'm suspecting this is for MDC? And we're MDL? Can anyone confirm this?
I don't know about the FAUX kernel. But it works fine for me on Slim Bean and also Ktoonsez kernels. I'm on AOSP if that helps.
Otherwise...
I think I mentioned in the OP that you have to reboot a couple times before the new animations start to come up.
Also, you need to make sure that ROM Toolbox has been assigned root authentication privs.
If that still doesn't work, then use ROM Toolbox to manually install ONE boot animation, just to ensure it's functioning properly.
You can do that by going to the randomize tab, then click once on any boot animation in that section, then select "Set as next".
Then reboot and test. For me, it takes two reboots before it takes effect.
It's probably working for you cuz like you said, you're on slim bean which is aosp

Not working for you?
Finally found the solution in a thread by anbech, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897969
Use the CWM_CustomBootanimation_421_Enable.zip. It's for the S3, but works fine on the S4.
Just because the kernel supports it doesn't mean the system does. This flashes the file "bootanimation" to the /system/bin folder. That file is already there, so I made a copy of the existing one before overwriting it with this (just in case).
I'm not using ROM Toolbox, I just copy my animation (bootanimation.zip) to the /system/media folder since I don't change it often, but it should work.
The link above also has a good tutorial on making boot animations.
By the way, I'm using agat's kernel.
