Ok my final take on this boot animation. this is a high quality animation...
rotated the animation and didn't want to stretch it to fit. this is a big file.. 18 megs, this is like the youtube video here with just the lego trooper and monster...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZkMZLspd_Q
this is the last remake, will start on the other lego starwars one later this week..
this will go with the awesome starwars lockscreen...
without further ado here is the file:

here are some icons i got off an iphone theme for Launcher Pro..

what do you think do you want this one put in a boot animation?

How does one install this?
Place it on your sdcard and use root explorer and copy it to /system/media/ be sure to tick the r/w button and reboot..
That Animation is way better looking lol
thanks it was a pain in the a$$..... i think i got it down now.....
i think i will try my hand at trying to theme... then i will do a lego star wars theme for ****s and giggles... LOL
ty for this
You've really done a great job with this! Thank you for spending your time messing with it and yes the other video is pretty cool too.

Unfortunately I cannot get the boot animation to play... I've loaded the file in the media section and I did click R/W.. however the lego animation does not play.
does your rom support bootanimation.zip files? that could be the only possible reason.... that has happened to me numerous times.....
yes it does... is there a way to correct this?
only thing i can think of is to adb push it? what rom are you using?
Trigger 2.8
you are using root explorer and putting it in /system/media/ not media on your sdcard right... im using Trigger also....
I finally resolved the issue.. I had to click R/W to move to media.. Thanks..
dude tis awesome.. the only thing is my phone loads before he excretes the brick.. ::sad face::
runs perfect on first try! tks.
np i trimmed it down from over 2000 images to just 250 to keep it looking right.... thanks makes me happy someone likes it... the other one might be coming this week... lol

Darn! I'm trying to free up enough space. There was 0% free space at first but I deleted a bunch of useless apps like the Avatar and Sims3. I'm not 100% sure what ROM is on my phone. I'm really new to this and I bought it used from someone so I don't know what was done to the phone. But I did root it.

Decided to play a bit more in 3ds max...
And here is my second creation!
2 links for your convinience:
CWM(LOCKED BL VERSION):Dropbox
No CWM:Dropbox
Instructions:
CWM:
Download zip to sd card. Boot to CWM (More info here. Choose zip from sd card. ???. Profit.
NOCWM: Download zip to sd card. Rename file 'bootanimation.zip'. Using root explorer or something equivalent, copy the file from your sd card to /system/media/ directory. Don't forget to set permissions and make sure you have /system mounted as r/w or this won't work
Update 5/23: Optimized version is up. Did some research and found that even jpg works in the bootanimation, so I just converted everything to jpg. Lemme know how it works
I am not responsible for bricking your phone with this. It works perfectly on mine.
Works great and does.not slow boottime. It is very smooth with the amount of animation going on.

Like the boot animation, but it does jitter, especially when the sand is pouring out and then into the word Android. Sorry to say that, cos' I do like the animation.
All the people who say it's so smooth, please post an unedited video of this animation running as smooth as you say. Thanks!
Yea mine started jittering as well so I removed it nice work though

At what point is the animation stuttering? Its possible I can make a fix for it but it might take a day or two depending on where the issue is. If its partway through the animation i'll have to re-render. If its right in the beginning it might just be a simple text file fix. I can not reproduce the issue through 10 successive reboots of the phone
edit: after looking at it, its the size of the bootanimation. I'll try to optimize the animation a bit further to see if that helps. it does stutter a bit in a couple different parts.
edit 2: changing the palate on the files did not help, going to have to re-render it. expect a v2 in a couple days

it'll take some time, but i can probably do that.
I made more than one change to the v2 file, which is why it's taking longer than I originally anticipated. (if anyone knows max, they know that particles + mental ray + animated materials + depth of field = pure processor fail no matter what you do)
I'm looking forward to seeing v2. My 11yr old son saw v1 when my phone was booting up and shouted "Awesome!".

hey i tried to put this on but i think ive done something rong. I now have no bootanimation. It just comes up as a blank screen. and i even tried replacing it with the original and i get the same result. what did i do wrong?

480x800 is what works for me
it's hard to get a good boot animation to work in a real fullscreen (1024x600) setting because it's just too hard to display that many images (it's just pictures) and boot up at the same time. That's why I've started sticking with the cyanogen versions.
I would dig on nice looking boot up screens that were not designed to be viewed on smaller displays (ie, no hard edges, just black edges to the images)
That one looks very nice though.

Here's the boot animation that I use. I extracted it from the flashable Dark Horse theme in the Hero C forums (thanks to Kfunk & Mod Nation for actually making it usable) and resized it to 1024X600 and added a few additional frames for a smoother look if anyone wants to try it. I've been to lazy to make it a flashable, so drop it in /system/media and rename it from honeyblue.zip to bootanimation.zip.

Awesome, thanks
I had this on my EVO at one time. So your good?
brought to you by the little voices in my head
lags a bit on E3D. How can I speed it up?
Have to open it and change the desc.txt looks something like
540 960 20
p 1 0 part0 (something like this)
( that 20 or whatever its at ) controls the speed you can change it by 5's so up by 5 is faster,down by 5 is slower
brought to you by the little voices in my head
schwartz did you get it to the right speed
I was able to change the speed, but couldn't fix the lag. It was 200p and when changing the speed it skipped part 0 and went to part 1. I tried a whole bunch of numbers from 20p - 300p
No worries. Its not that important to me. I was just trying to get an idea of how these things are compiled.
I cant even get this thing to run on my 3d. How did you install it?

Use root explorer or adb to put it in either system/customize/resource (named Sprint_bootanimation) or data/local (named bootanimation )
now the voices are in 3d
Ok got it working. Thanks for the tip. Wish it would run a little smoother though.
anyway to make it smoother?

Wasn't able to get this working in either directory. Permissions were changed and I've had other boot animations working. Running Synergy ROM. No big deal, but wanted to give a heads up.
Edit: NEVERMIND! Got it working. Something was messed up with the .ZIP you posted. Here's the I modified that works for me.
I used this on my NS4G and it ran smooth, here is the link for that thread and the download. Maybe this one will help. this ran horizontal with the phone in a vertical position, not like the other that was horizontal on a horizontal phone

Mazook98 brought up this video awhile ago that shows the development of ICS. It would make a sick Bootanimation if someone could do it.
Here is the vid.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRyAVVeZv4g&feature=youtube_gdata_player
I understand itll have to be trimmed and dont really care what portion of the clip is used. Mazook98 brought up the 14:40min mark but I think it might be a lill small on the screen and really starting from the beginning might be best b/c the strings are stretched across the entire screen surface there.
Much appreciated in advance to whomever can get this done!!
I'll take a look at after work and see what I can do ,I have a couple to finish up but I can get some thing together in a few days
I have nothing cool to put here!
Hell yeah would appreciate it a bunch.

Mazook98 originally liked the portion at 14:40min mark but when i looked at it, the image was smaller in the video and figured the beginning looked better b/c it would take up more of the screen.
up to you i dont really care. whatever looks best to you is fine with me.
i'll compare the first 40 with the 14:40 to 15:20 or so and i'll go with the best out of it, cool

Ehh dangit. I dunno. Prolly easier landscape and look better but I never thought of bootanimations as usefully I. Landscape. Least I don't know many that turn their phone sideways during boot.

Regardless I can't complain as ur doing me and others the favor to begin with.

Okay got around to using v2 landscape and also v1 portrait last night. I will say the landscape looks much better than the portrait. portrait looks more scrunched up on the screen.
Both seem to have slight issue where you see a little jerk in the video and seems the size changes some or least you see a jerk from the top of the animation shrinking down for a split second.(tough to describe sorry)
Is there a way to get it to just get the animation to loop once completed? I didn't replace the default.xml file and just dropped the animation file replacing the current one in the directory with root explorer. I didn't think the default xml file would have the line to loop it in it, but if its in that then ill swap them out or edit my current one to include it i guess.
No the default.xml doesn't make it loop, and you want to loop the whole thing that's a 40 second clip it should have played until boot. I can add more to it but to make the whole thing play again I would have to double the folders and that zip would be hugh 20+ mb. As for the glitch that kinda happens when cropping black boarders away from black backgrounds gets a little tough to judge it sometimes.
I have nothing cool to put here!

Gotcha yeah guess its bc amount of apps I have on the phone as the clip stops at the end and there's about another 40sec or so before I get to the HTC lockscreen and can do anything.
I'm sold on landscape with this animation though as it looks better overall IMHO.
Yeah I didn't know if there was a way to just script it to loop without actually doubeling the size of the animation.
