please support by giving some thumbs up for my Facebook page
Lets Get started
here are some requirements that you can easily get from playstore
For Bootanimation :
ES File explore/ unrar premium
Batch image convertor
video to image converter
Pics Art

in this Tutorial you will learn how to make Your name as your bootanimation the steps are very simple and nooby friendly
PROCEDURE :
First root your device and open es file explore and granted ES root permissions
open path (device or emulated/system/media
copy bootanimation.zip/bootaudio.zip and paste it in sdcard
extract bootanimation.zip you will see some folders named part0, part1, and desc.txt
open desc.txt and copy the resolution of yours default resolution helps in creating same sizes of bootanimations that you are making its written in first line like 800x480
now start a blank project on Picsart with same resolution that You copied from desc.txt
Please Note: The animation that you see on while booting on your device all depends on the style of your Drawing that you are making
some have circular, spiral, in out all depends on your drawing
now select Color of background and apply some cool and creative backgrounds for your bootanimation
after that write your name on them with different styles or different colors made minium of 25 jpgs or pngs.. with different colors combination
after that save them with extension jpg or png
now create a folder named part0 and place all your pics that you created
You can also use batch image convertor to resize them
Now again we need our default bootanimation that we extracted there are also same folder named part0
open the folder and copy the name of pics it must be as X00000
Go back to your working folder and rename all you pics with default name that is in your default bootanimation
now save them after that create a new file desc.txt in your working folder and edit it with es note editor
Tricky Part started here all the things that you written in desc.txt will affect your bootanimation
First write Resolution of device xxx X xxx
after that write frames (easy say speed of bootanimation) it should be like this xxx X xxx xx without any spaces
on next line write p 1 0 part0
to under stand what is p 1 0 please consider to this po Post
now if you want your animation will shows repeatedly write 10 times p 1 0 part0
the more you write the more it will repeated and may affect boottime
now save file as desc.txt ..
and the final flash after all done select your part0 folder and desc.txt and compressed it by using es file explore or easy unrar
NoTe : compression level should be STORE or No compression
All Done you jus created your first bootanimation without PC.....
To check your bootanimation open rom tool box and load your bootanimation file as preview it will shows up
To set as your created bootanimation as your default press install intead of preview
Hope its is the noob friendly and easiest guide on Xda

BOOTANIMATION attempt ~DanceDroid for EVO~

Below was my attempt and it didn't work!
But jthurs was able to have a dancing android with a full while background.
I added a song (It's peanutbutter Jelly Time) in a zip file it
should be good!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried to make the dancing droid a boot animation today.
~~~~~~~~~~~~Some helpful information!~~~~~~~~~~~~​ I use root explorer to change my boot animation. To do so you I took the bootanimation.zip file and put the file in /system/customize/resource folder also tried in system/media and in data/local and rebooted my HTC Evo and it worked.
1st attempt:
When I added my created bootanimation it to /system/customize/resource folder I saw the Starwars bootanimation (which is in good quality). I looked in /system/customize/resource folder and the starwars bootanimation.zip file wasn’t in there I found it in system/media folder. So I changed the name so it would no longer show up.
2nd Attempt:
I added my bootanimation.zip file to system/media and rebooted my phone and this time it showed the old version of the word andoid that looks like a splash screen from the G1.
3rd Attempt:
I than checked data/local folder and saw a bootanimation.zip in there and changed that name and added my bootanimation.zip file when I rebooted I saw the old style anroid splash screen again.
Conclusion from my many attempts!!!!
Conclusion 1:
I think there’s a preference in location where the phone will look for the bootanimation. I could be wrong but I think it goes in this order:
1. /system/customize/resource folder
2. /system/media folder
3. data/local
Conclusion 2:
Also I think I made a bad file for the boot animation.
Attempt 1:
The boot animation zip file consisted of a desc.txt file with the code
480 800 30
P 0 0 part 0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
in it. and a folder named “part 0” with all the dancingdroid png files.
I created the zip file with 7-zip and added it to archive and created a 7z file and archive format store.
Attempt 2:
This one had 3 files:
Folder named “part0” a desc.txt file and a Thumbs.db.(this file was automatically created when I made the zip file and archive format store.
This time when I archived it I made sure to create a .zip file. Also the code looked this this:
480 800 10
p 0 0 part0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When i tried this bootanimation i just saw a black screen.
Can anyone show me some insight or help?? If you think I should take this post out of here or put it somewhere else let me know A.S.A.P.
If you like take a look at the bootanimation i have created!!

reserved just in case again

Did you make sure that the zip program was set to "store" and not "compress"? If the zip file is compressed any, it won't show.
I did that
@bluebeast213 I did archive format as store.
If you like you can take a look at the bootanimation file i created. I added the attachment to the original post.
three quick tips
1. bootanimation.zip cannot be compressed the compress must be on store winrar has this option win you make a zip file under the compress type.
2. if your seeing the android bootanimation its because your system can't find a bootanimation.zip so it reverts to the default one.
3. the desc.txt describes how to animate the bootanimation. heres a break down
480 800 10 .... this means its resolution 480 width by 800 height and the last is the frames per second.
p 0 0 part0 p= part... the first zero is the delay before playing... the second 0 is how many times to loop with zero it loops forever and part0 is the folder to look in for this particular part.
I'll come back later and try and help more.
Edit: if your seeing a black screen your bootanimation is in the right place but your bootanimation.zip is compressed and the compression needs to be on store.
Thanks

hmmmm.....
when i use the 7-zip program it gives me the option to store and i did that the 2nd time around and that's how i got the black screen. I will try again.

This is the Droid dance boot animation that I customized a little to work good with my evo. I made it have twice as many frames and run twice as fast. It looks great and has no lag. Just rename it to bootanimation.zip and use Root Explorer to replace your original in /system/customize/resource and it should run when u reboot. If you want a sound clip to go with it use ringdroid app to make a 20 second .mp3 clip for the Droid to dance to and rename it to SPC_animation_final.mp3 and put it in the same folder. Good luck and enjoy.
No good!
@Clay333 I tried the link http://db.tt/tdsEB50 and it didn't work
UPdate.
I think my connection was bad or the page was bad but it's downloading now.
Update!
It worked! Thank you!
I just wish the background was all the same color
Hi,
When I try to flash this, I just get my old bootanimation back, nothing happens really :-(
I would really like to get this working, because it's awesome!
edit: I got the bootanimation working by just pushing bootanimation in /data/local/
Thanks anyway for this awesome animation!!
cheers

BOOt animation. information. station.

Usefull info for making boot animation zips
A boot animation zip must have inside
Folder named part0
Folder named part1
Desc.text
Folder part0-main animation with your image files inside
Folder part1- last image of your part 0 folder . If u want it to play just once and then wait to boot.
You can have more then 1 image in folder 1 if u want it too loop until booted...
Desx.text create a normal text file named desc.text
It controlls the boot animation
In desc .text
480 800 15 ( the 480 800 is your screen res. The 15 is the fps u want it to play at.)
Does not have to be 15 ....u can experiment with that)
Third line is the sequence u want it to play in
Example. See screen shot.
Ends with part1 which will play whats in folder part1 until boot.
Now u have part0 folder part 1 folder and desc.txt.
You need to zip them using 7z with compression level:store
It will not work unless compressed with level:store
All done
Can I add this to silver_Kern.zip under system folder and add media with just the sanim? Or would replace the whole media folder?

so wait i can make any boot animation now? lets say i made an animation i can just use that one or what? sorry for the noob question just been rooting and stuff for just 6 months
First of all, thanks for the shared info!
I have searched previously for boot animations and have come across
a program - boot animation creator:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1234611
and for previewing the boot animation - boot animation previewer:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133703
Does making boot animations with those still gonna work with the skyrocket?
And how can we add sound to the boot animation (i want to make a umbrella corp. boot animation, but the ones i found were lame )
It's worth noting that the desc.txt should not be made in standard notepad if you're using windows. Use Notepad++ instead.

Random|Bootanimations|Script [init.d support req'd]

from this thread here.
attached is script.txt, just remove .txt so you have a file named 10bootanimations; and move it to system/etc/init.d and set permissions to rwxr-xr-x
in data/local/ create a folder called bootanimations with permissions rwxrwxrwx.
place as many properly made bootanimation.zip as you want as long as they have a custom name other than bootanimation.zip (e.g. CM9boot.zip)
reboot and enjoy.
If you want to view a single animation only you can do so without moving or changing any of the other files.
Simply Create a file called "bootanimation.use" in /data/local/bootanimations/. In this file place a single line with the filename of the boot animation you want to use. For example:
Code:
RunonlythisOnebootanimation.zip
when you want to have random again simply remove "bootanimation.use"
heres a link to my CM9 resized one for our tabs: : http://db.tt/JPVJCiZV
and I will attach a Honeycomb and ICS one for our tabs to get you started.
This script along with rotating wallpapers really helps to keep things fresh. Not to mention CM9 builds
enjoy.

Bootanimation mod?

Hello There.
Found a Bootanimation thread on the S6 forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/themes-apps/mod-enable-zip-bootanimation-aroma-boot-t3205320
I was wondering if its possible to use that same zip to get rid of the qmg file extension and be able to just start making and using standard android zip boot animation files.
Any dev interested on looking at the "source" to see how it´s made? What to "mod" in our S7? Something to flash, or just a line to change on the config files.
According to my knowledge and experience, you need to change bootanimation file in system/bin

You are close... here is the thing:
You can have custom boot animations on your galaxy, just with root access and changing the right bootanimation files that are inside system/media.
The thing is that those files, if we are on Samsung devices, have the extension qmg (bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg and shutdown.qmg).
All the other android phones have a file called bootanimation.zip
The difference lies in the type of file. In order to make a qmg file you need to do a lot of tricks with an outdated samsung application, that converts jpgs into compressed qmg files.
On the other hand, if you want to make a standard android boot animation zip, you can just use the images and zip´em (there´s a little more than that) or you can use any gif to convert it to a bootanimation.zip file with online free conversion tools.
You can even use youtube videos to convert them into hight quality gif and then use a gif to bootanimation converter to get your file.
That´s the deal.
Now, the trick is how to make samsung to "read" the original bootanimation.zip files instead of the propietary qmg file.

No, you still dont understand.
To make samsung read bootanimation zip, you need to change bootanimation in system/bin
Bootanimation file in system/bin is diffrent with the system/media

Ah... Now I see what you mean.
The system/bin/bootanimation file has some lines (some unreadable but some that you can actually read) if you open it like a text file, that have some references to the boot animation file.
There are a few interesting lines:
/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg /system/media/bootvideomain.mp4
So guess what you pointed out!
You can use any mp4 video as a boot animation video... just copy the mp4 video to your system/media, and name it "bootvideomain.mp4". Then rename bootsamsung.qmg to something like bootsamsung.qmg.old.
Be sure that the permissions on the mp4 are "rw - r - r."
I have just tested it with really ugly results, but it worked (video should be made on portrait. I placed a "landcape video from whatsapp, so it was compressed to 8mb and unfortunatelly, sideways".
Gonna mess around more to see...
So at the momment, I haven´t changed any file. Just playing with the bootsamsung.qmg and placing a bootvideomain.mp4 on the system/media folder.
It seems it takes a little longer to boot, and the video only plays for about 5 seconds...
Using the same system/bin/bootanimation file.
I´m not a programmer, but it seems like there´s a list of what kind of animation should the
