okay, on other phones ive done this in the past with ease... but its been a while!
NOTE: i am using Resurrection Remix 1.3 with siyahkernal 3.1rc4
I have extracted the bootanimation.zip to see its structure.
i successfully replaced it HOWEVER, when it comes to the part that loops (p 0 0 part1) it just shows up black. i have 35 images in there is there some sort of limit or file size limit? (fiiles are all under 20KB)
so it plays 'p 1 0 part0' but does not play the 'p 0 0 part1'
i even tried making it a loop only with 'p 0 0 part0'
it is in the same layout as the original boot zip with a few more/less images...
i have even cleared dalvik cache to give it enough time to display!
check to make sure you put in the right folder names for each loop:
part0
part1
and then your desc.txt should have some reading for it like this:
480 800 24
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
PS
are the image files all named properly? and are they png format?
Thanks for your reply,
it was in exactly the same format that the original bootanimation zip was:
desc.txt
480 800 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
File Layout
part0 --> (0000.png - 0100.png) - WORKING
part1 --> (0001.png - 0050.png) - NOT WORKING
the only odd thing i can see is that it starts with 0001.png in part1, but it shouldnt make a difference...
i noticed when i have this setup
480 800 30
p 1 0 part0
it works fine but if i were to do this:
480 800 30
p 0 0 part0
with the same images it just shows a black screen (or stuck on first image coz its black)
Hi, ive created a few bootanimations myself so am all too familiar with problems you can have, naming files wrong, wrong file formats, aspect ratios etc.
Try this program from one of the xda developers, works like a charm for me, it'll create the desc.txt file, lets you specify the boot loop folder, and creates the bootanimation.zip for you (you'll have to name it that yourself when prompted).

If it helps, let me know, by hitting thanks, and be sure to thank the original dev
Thanks mate, i was looking at that yesterday but i was at work... and it blocks the download as hacking =[! i will try when i get home tonight!
EDIT: for some reason it is working now, (the download) =D after i upgrade to resurrection remix 1.4 and siyahkernel 3.1rc5 i will update here see if it works
To be honest, any of the images or other files not named properly or starting with wrong numbers can cause issue.
Your part0 folder should start with:
0001.png as should your part1 folder.
See if that helps (don't forget to rename the rest of them too (so it isn't skipping number order).

To share some experience: I've created boot animations, the program i used creates them with numbers start for example as 10001, 10002, 10003 etc, not 00001, and they always worked.
On occasion, i've deleted images from the animation sequence, from the begining of the sequence, mid way, from the end, so now, for example, the numbers start at 10065, 10066, with perhaps numbers 10070, 71, 72 missing and resuming at 10080 etc, again the boot animations have always worked.
I've also created animations using jpeg, and again, they have always worked.

Sounds like good info i may give it a try, either way in my testings for boot animations, i decided to build a tool, which can automatically create multiple png's generating a fade out effect on the selected layer! at the moment its only in alpha but please give it a try feedback is welcome!!

The point is... both folders need to start same numbers. Ok, do as you guys please.
(*you also don't have to split them up - all 1 folder)
Alright I got bored so I figured I would make a few boot animations. The first part of it works fine, it starts up, plays part0 and then stops and stays on the last frame of part0 until the phone is completely booted.
I have the desc.txt file set up as so:
720 1280 14
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
Any help on why it won't move from part0 to part1 would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I made a boot animation and the more settings i try at the desc.txt file and it will never show the part1
This are my settings
720 720 12
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
What could it be?
Here is the bootanimation i created for the AOSB rom im using http://www.mediafire.com/?f9bl97mh3dt14tg
Nevermind guys i fixed the problem which was the way I was compressing the zip
I know how to create bootanimations, I saw CM bootanimation that the desc.txt looks like this
Code:
1440 2560 30
p 1 0 part0
c 0 0 part1
c 1 0 part2
They made the part2 to loop and when the phone going to boot up they made the part 3 animation to work like a ending part. I tried to do the same few times with same settings and no lock,someone know maybe why?
I attached the Bootanimation so you can see.
Thanks.
Hi guys, I've made a boot animation for my Z3, I read a few tutorials and followed each to the letter.
I used ffmpeg to grab the frames from a video and put them in two folders, named; part0 and part1.
Part0, I want to play once. Part1 I want to play once and then loop until the phone boots fully.
my desc.txt file looks like this:
Code:
1080 1920 30
p 1 0 part0
c 1 0 part1
p 0 0 part1
I tried it without the line "c 1 0 part1" and it still didn't work.
I previewd the file with depotovski01's boot animation factory and it played perfect, but when I installed it on my phone using ROM toolbox pro and rebooted, the first part played fine then the screen went white and I was in a bootloop.
Had to change it through recovery to boot again.
Any ideas what's causing this?
Thanks in advance!
