Change and/or create a bootanimation, the beloved FLIPOUT :D - Flipout and Charm Themes and Apps

Hello friends of the forum "XDADevelopers"
This is my first post in the forum, I hope will be useful.
First of all I want to say this I am translating with google translator is that I'm not good with English, I apologize
While waiting for the glorious arrival of some ROM Froyo (Android 2.2) for our FLIPOUT modear or at least get the current version we have a
faster and with all the benefits we want (In this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110941 there is a rom that I have not tested but looks good )
Perhaps you are someone who wants to get their hands on the system files and make an occasional change, of course, changes do not affect the integrity of our cel, because there are all kinds of tutorials but there are times when things do not go as want and then, goodbye FLIPOUT.
This time I bring a small tuto that can be performed without problems, the procedure is simple.
It is, as the title says, to change and create a bootanimation.
Yes, to change the operator logo that appears in our current bootanimation, in my case "Vomistar."
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I researched and managed to create some as bootanimation abound on the Internet at high resolutions (for other high-end smartphone) and there is absolutely nothing for our beloved FLIPOUT, so these bootanimation must be unique in its kind in the entire network (I hope not to exaggerate).
Hands to work:
'Before I tell you something, my cel Android is version 2.1-update 1, theirs must be the same.
-So I usually put the operators hand and manage the software and put them on bootanimation with your logo.
-When turning on the cel, the first thing that comes out is a picture called "Splash" in my cel is this:
The mine is the Motorola logo. I want to see yours, take it a photo? And SHARING.
This can not be changed at the moment is a bit complicated (If you're a large)
-NOT CHARGING THE BOOTANIMATION of their respective operations, so I go up, I would appreciate yours to be appreciated.
-To do all these steps have to have your cel "root".
They also need the "Root Explorer" (To access the Android system folders) can be downloaded here (Because the Market is not ): CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD.
-ALWAYS REMEMBER TO MAKE A BACKUP FILES COPIED, ALWAYS!
Choose the bootanimation they like personally, I like that make some mischief to "Apple"
If you do not like any, below I'll show you to your own
All come in 320x240 resolution, I took the time to square and put a good quality (13MB weighing there, it's worth because they are stretched or pixelized)

CHANGE BOOTANIMATION
Step: 1
All steps will be using the "Root explorer".
They should know that there are 2 access routes to the bootanimation (I've tried putting in any of the 2 routes of 10 and it worked, but decided to opt
FOLLOWING the path: "data-> local", is simpler because we need not give permission to the script).
One is:
"/ Data / local" = It is not necessary to stick to our bootanimation permissions (I did a backup of the file that was here, come on. Zip I tried to unzip but I could not secure the same thing will happen)
Use this route, do not cause problems.
And another:
"System / media" = To paste the bootanimation here must give write permissions "MountR / O"
Picture 1
This route was the bootanimation of "Vomistar." Leave it well, do not change.
WE WILL NOT USE THIS ROUTE
COME TO ROUTES 2 BOOTANIMATION and copy, just in case. IF AFTER MAY, I would appreciate if THE RISE TO ANY SERVER AND SHARE, THANKS IN ADVANCE.
Now:
-Copy the bootanimation they like the SD card.
-In "Root Explorer", go to the SD card.
The path is:
"/ Sdcard /"

Diringanse which hit the bootanimation and copy it (To copy a file from the "Root Explorer", should maintain pressure on the file until it comes out options)
Picture 3
Picture 4
Picture 5
After copying the file, they will 2 options at the bottom:
"Paste and Cancel", do not translate to know what it means.
Then go to the route (standard SD card, just go back, use the back arrow)
"/ Data / local" (as shown in the image) and press "Paste" (No need to give write permissions "MountR / O" for this).
Overwrite the file located there.

Waiting and ready.

Reset the cel and see the changes to the load.
CREATE A BOOTANIMATION
Creating a bootanimation is something simple (simple is the uploading ) Depends on the knowledge they have about image editing and video editing, etc, etc.
For this we will use an interesting video I've seen (as for a bootanimation).
Located in the youtube and this is the direction (Or they can choose a video of your choice; D):
Download with Free YouTube and the "No conversion" (or the program of your choice), so that does not affect its quality.
Once downloaded, turn them in. Avi 320x240 resolution (this resolution is relative, can set the size you wish).
For this I use a program called "Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate 5.1.39," is very good, you can search by Google or San taringa San haha
Because the video has a resolution larger and may have a conflict with the program at the time to take pictures of GIF.
Once converted the file. Avi, paseremos to make picture boxes.
For this we need the help of this small program: GIF Animator 5 is portable and works on version 10! CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD
The run, and let the option:
File -> New
Picture 12
FOLLOWING in the sale, we put on for size: 320x240, otherwise leave it at that.
Picture 13
Now, proceed to load the video into. Avi. For this, press on:
File-> Add video
Picture 14
Once you have chosen our video, the program will ask if we replace the existing table with the start of the video, if you give.
Picture 15
We waited a while, until fresh
Picture 16
Once loaded all the video, export it.
File-> Save-> Image
Picture 17
Next, we will ask a folder to save our video.
Put any name (The program will automatically offer you a number to the tables)
The check "Export all frames" must be selected (by default the images are pictures in. PNG)
Picture 18
Close the program (no need to save, unless you want)
We can see the selected folder is full of pictures
The following programs will use is:
"Adobe ImageReady CS2," look it up in the San Google (I've seen portable versions in Taringa )
Picture 19
Note:
To see the different windows editing ImageReady, go to "Window" and activate the windows they want to see.
That matter most are:
Layers
Animation
By default when you press on the "Window-> Workspace-> default palette locations", you can not see the window "Animation."
In ImageReady, create a new document:
File-> New
Picture 20
Next, we ask that we put a name to our work (Place you want)
And the size, we can: 320x240 (This is the screen size that supports our FLIPOUT)
The option that says "content of the first layer," not very important (I put white)
And we give OK
Picture 21
After we got our picture box (created with GIF Animator)
File-> Import-> Folder as frames
Picture 22
Select the folder and OK. This takes a little bit.
Picture 23
We see pictures of images loaded into a new document
Picture 24
Now for the NEXT window (the window that says "Animation." To activate this window, go to "Window" and activate the check on "Animation") and press the button with the symbol "Play" and choose "Select all tables."
Picture 25
Then we come back to press the botóon "Play" and choose the option "Copy Pictures".
Picture 26
We closed our current window and save the changes, we "No" (Do not worry we have already copied the pictures)
Picture 27
We return to our document created and click on the button "Play" and choose "Paste Frames".
Picture 28
The table comes out, choose the option:
"Paste the selection", wait a while and go.
Picture 29
They stick all the pictures in the "Animation" and in the "Layers."
In the "Layers" delete a file that is named "Background".
Picture 30
Now select all the frames of the video (In the window that says "Animation") Press the "Play" and choose "Select All Frames."
Note: You can also work for separate boxes.
Picture 31
Being in the "layers", copy all layers (To copy all layers at the same time we press the "Shift and control" and Clicking on the first layer and continue holding down shift and control and Clicking on the last layer)
Note: You can also work on separate layers.
Picture 32
Then we went to the "move tool" and pictures to our taste all the boxes of pictures, if we want to reduce or increase (must be selected all the pictures of both windows, "Animation and Layers", remember).
"Display table transformation" must be with the respective "Check", but we can not move nor to reduce the pictures.
Picture 33
With the "Move Tool", proceed to reconcile our paintings.
Picture 34
This is usually a little heavy, remember to be patient
Once ready our table, we proceed to export your file.
Let the option:
File-> Export-> animation frames as files
Picture 35
On next window will name to our work and its details.
Picture 36
By clicking on the "Define" button and put the same options as shown in the picture.
In the name I am putting an underscore and three zeros, because the program will increase 2 more.
Note:
In all the pictures must be 5 numbers to run (If you have more the Android system will not recognize it), can have any name, but always 5 numbers, remember. Passing the box 100 the program will increase by more digits, ie, do not look like this: "boot_00100" (So it should be) but rather well, "boot_000100," and has 6 numbers and not work well (This example has 461 frames).
What I do is create 2 folders (call them A and folder B folder) in folder A, I keep the tables up the next name: "boot_000" (The name change is done by pressing the "Set") the word boot bearing 3 zeros.
Picture 37
In folder B, I keep the pictures under the name "boot_00," the word boot accompanied by 2 numbers.
Picture 38
Finally I create a folder C and copy the contents of folder A (up to the table "boot_00099"), also copied the contents of the folder B (but from the table "boot_00100 up") and hit in the C .
Having done the above steps, we now proceed to save the picture boxes. In the "Choose" button, choose the folder where you save your work (remember the above steps, as the 2 folders)
Picture 39
And to finish with the steps guradado of picture boxes.
We see that under the window are the options format. Here we choose the PNG24 format (Must be PNG, but the Android system does not recognize pictures with other formats)
Picture 40
And we ok and wait.
Then proceed to copy the pictures folder A and B in the C and above.
Here ends the editing step and move on to step "Compression".
Now go to the folder contents C (where are our pictures copied).
Then create 2 more folders, create with following the names (can name you want, but here I explain in this example)
part0
part1
In the folder "part0", copy the tables "boot_00001" to "boot_00460."
In the folder "part1", copy the last frame that is "boot_00461"
.
Additionally we will create a text file (yes, just a simple file with a. Txt) with the name "desc" and add up the next text:
320 240 10
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
Note:
The first line indicates the size (320x240) and the value 10 indicates the FPS (Frames Per Second, the rate of exchange of images)
The second line:
p = defines a portion of the animation (Leave it)
1 = Indicates the number of times to repeat the animation (in this case only once)
0 = This zero indicates a pause (also leave it)
part0 = The folder name (in our case we put the folder "part0")
The second line:
p = defines a portion of the animation (Leave it)
0 = Indicates the number of times to repeat the animation (value of zero means that will be repeated several times until you load the system)
0 = the zero indicates a pause (as in this last folder image sequence ends, we'll leave it)
part1 = The name of the folder.
Finally compress these 3 files, personally I use "winrar" so we teach them how to do this program.
First select the 3 files together (par0 folders, part1 and description) and give a left-click and choose the option:
"Add to archive ..."
Picture 41
The table comes, we will place the file named "bootanimation."
In the "File Format", choose ZIP (Because the. Rar is not detected by the system)
And finally, where it says "Compression Method", choose "No compression".
And we accept.
Picture 42
The file created we will post it to SD and then the "Root Explorer" will be spent on the route:
"/ Data / local"
I hope this post will be helpful.
Remember to share your bootanimation to see how they have left.
And excuse my bad English again.
But I wanted to contribute to this great forum.
And if you know some Spanish and do not understand this post.
