Now,i've been working on the bootanimation of The LEGEND-X but sadly i haven't been able to port it and i always get a black screen
Here's the link to the original BOOTANIMATION :http://www.multiupload.com/QLGYJPKML0
The resolution of the images is 480x800 and i've tried the following-
1)Converted the images to 240x400 (.jpg) and tried at 15,20,24fs
2)Converted the images to 240x400 (.png) and tried at 15,20,24 fs
3)Converted the images to 180x300 (both .jpg and.png) and tried at 15,20,24fs
4)Didn't resize the images but only made changes in the desc.txt file
Now,the images are originally in .jpg and sadly none of the above method worked. It would b of great help if someone could help me out...
tnx
Quick guess : you're sure you didn't compress the zip ?
edit : I quickly the desc.txt file and loaded it up : it runs, but shows white screens between cycles. I guess that's because of load times. Be sure to resize images.

it is correct the desc.txt (for xperia X8 its "320 480" without quotes) also the folders are correctly named and the zip file is in /data/local with the right permissions aswell.
using "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local"
all that i end up with is a quick boot logo then black screen until the keypad for pin code comes up.
Here is the bootanimation file btw: Bootanimation.zip
UPDATE: saw now it said "part1" and "part2" in desc.txt even tho i didnt type that, so i changed that, pushed file and still same same but lil different =/
Btw ive searched all over XDA and i found a post that said it can be placed inside /system/customize/resource/
is that correct is it it way way waaaay off ?
Yeah we have tried alot off stuff but nothing helps. So please someone help us !!
Problem is your desc.txt
You need to use linux to edit it (or any editor that doesn't use CRLF for separating lines)
Don't make separate lines between the data.
Attachment may help.
I used the Text Editor in Root Explorer, but maybe the problem is, that the bootanimation.zip has to be a store-only-zip,compressed ones won´t work

Thanks for help dx, tho it went to a complete black screen as before.
im using ubuntu 11 on a virtualbox inside wintendo btw.
no idea why this dont work as intended but curse the one who ever gives up, through hard times you learn
Use notepad++ (or Linux )
Use STORE method when creating zip.
@Baronen, I'm responding to your PM here so i can help others too.. the problem with the animation you sent me by PM is that it's compressed.. When you pack it you need to be sure that the compression is set to "0" or "store", depending on what program you are using..

This happens when the desc.txt has an error or is malformed.. As DX said, you need to use a specific editor, notepad won't do it.. You can use notepad++ but you have to configure it so it treats text like unix.
PIC: http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7074/notepadj.png
Some other tips:
Always convert your images to 256 colors
Don't use more than 12/15 FPS
Try not to use the native device resolution (320x480), even with low fps the animation will get slow.. take the ones on froyobread for ex, they are slow because the images are at 320x480 (yeah i will fix them when i have a bit of time)
EDIT: goonsquadx8, just saw your desc.txt file, you have blank lines between the arguments

I usually put my animation in the media folder in froyo bread and it works...only thing I do is make a copy of the zip file and will name the two zip files bootanimation_cm6.zip and bootanimation_cm7.zip....and will keep these both files in system>media folder....
when making the animation I usually takes the dimensions of the picture around 256x256 pix...also in the text file I write 320 480 as my resolution...this will help to stretch my pic to full screen......
Okey thanks everyone it works fine now !!!!

Are you sure that they work? I haven't tried them but i noticed that the desc.txt files have blank lines between the arguments and i'm not sure if android likes those filenames... For ex, you named them xxxx_280x420.png and i think that the number sequence "xxxx" must be at the end of the name, although i can be totally wrong
Anyway, one thing you can do is to reduce the color number to 256 and those 3MB files will drop to half a kilobyte
could some1 resize to make it work on wildfire ?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139995 i tried messing around with desc but probably doing sth wrong.thnx in advance
hope these work for you
if not let me know
phone is in middle of flashing so i can test them
edit:
ubuntu_bootanimation1 = just the ubuntu logo and dots -> working
ubuntu_bootanimation2 = ubuntu logo, dots and text -> working - text is a bit small but readable
to install
move to system/media
change permissions to;
read x x x
write x

rename to bootanimation.zip

of course what a stupid i am
i did that all the time when i first started
that program is amazing it makes it so much easier
I have made a boot animation (credit goes to 'rascarlo' who developed the main mesh for the logo) and compiled it into a bootanimation.zip file on my mac. This is what I did.
I made the animation in 240 x 320 for my xperia mini in after effects, then rendered it as a mov file. From there I extracted the tiffs from it and then converted them all to png images. I labelled them all from 0 < and made two file 'part0' and 'part1'. I made the txt file defining the fps and the resolution, and after transferring it to /system/media when I boot up the phone, it just has a blank screen before going to the unlock screen. I have successfully loaded other peoples animations before so I know how to install them onto the phone. Would someone kindly check out the file and see if it is all correct? Also, anyone that would like to use the file, DO!!!
After seeing the desc.txt I think it should work properly.

However after the SE logo shows up, there is a black screen, and then the lock screen loads. Try it if you want!
Is there a way to check if it has been zipped correctly to 'store' and not compressed? I used zipit for mac
Did just zipped it or compressed it, that is the question?
No I was wondering if I had zipped it properly because you have to zip it using 'store' format instead of 'compress'. Is there anything else you could suggest?

If a black screen is shown, it is probably because the boot animations is not Loaded probably. Might be the zip problem. Try using some other application for zipping.

Free program Boot Animation Factory. I lost link, but you can google and download. It will let you preview your zip before you put on phone. It will let you create your own boot animation. It save me a lot of time as I made few mistakes too.
If you unlock your bootloader, it will put an annoying warning message instead of the usual greeting screen when you first boot up.
If you want to restore to stock logo screen, go to Hashbang173's thread.
If you want to restore your custom greeting, follow the steps below:
1. Download the XT1575-logo-new-9-14-15.zip file from Hashbang173's thread and extract the logo.bin file.
2. Connect your phone to your computer. Then run this:
Code:
adb shell su -c “dd if=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/clogo of=/sdcard/clogo.bmp”
3. Then you can use a file browser app, go to your sdcard, and email the clogo.bmp to yourself. This clogo.bmp is your original custom greeting screen. You can actually customize that file if you want a different picture.
4. Next, download the boot logo maker by caitsith2.
5. Run the logo maker and load the logo.bin from hashbang173 that you downloaded at the beginning.
6. Replace the logo-boot and logo-unlocked image with your clogo.bmp file.
7. Save the project in the boot logo maker. It will create a flashable zip file.
8. Extract the new logo.bin from that new zip, then flash it via fastboot (replace /path/to/logo.bin with the actual path to the new logo.bin you just extracted):
Code:
fastboot flash logo /path/to/logo.bin
I've uploaded a template logo.bmp file that you can edit and use for the moto maker to make your own custom greeting. If you want to make your own, skip step 2, and use the uploaded logo.bmp to edit as step 3. Dimensions for your custom image needs to be 1440x2560 pixels.
Credit
@Hashbang173 for creating the original logo restore.
@caitsith2 for the logo maker tool.
@vnphantom for figuring out how to retrieve your custom boot screen.
Thank you for this!

Sure. Simply make an image to replace it. I'm assuming any file format would work, but the one pulled from the phone was a BMP file with dimensions 1440x2560 pixels.

I am using this tool to create custom logos. You can also fully customize the battery charger and bootloader images (like the android with his belly open).
For the logo file I'm saving them as 1400x2560 24bit .png files. (but in the tool you can see the resolution for the other types.
1) Open the logo.bin from this thread.
2)Replace whichever images you want
3) Save as zip
4) take the bin file from the zip and flash it with fastboot... fastboot flash logo mylogo.bin

Mine worked at 191K. I read that the reason the default logo screens are mostly one color is to reduce size. So going with a circle of detail in the middle of rectangle of one color can help.

I guess that's why it was giving me issues, since I am not using a one color image. I just re-sized one of the icons in the picture and reduced the image to the same 85kb and it wont work again. Even by reducing it at 74kb. Ill attach the image in case you want to take a look at it

Your dimensions were off. I simply stretched it out to the dimensions mentioned earlier. I've edited the OP to reflect dimensions for custom images.
When I pulled the logo, I saved the files as .png... and that's how I save my edits. .png is better at stretching/shrinking and not looking bad. My logo.bin file was 2.43/MB and had no problem..
Plus, I use paint.net to edit... it's free and you can do a lot of stuff with it.. .

I had the same thing happen when I stretched the image. I had to just leave the image centered. If you stretch it size of image increases and may be too big. I saved in .bmp, but png worked as well. Good luck.

Okily dokily. Here is how it worked for me using Photoshop.
Open a new image 1440 pixels X 2560 pixels, resolution 96px/in
Paste the image in, make changes etc. Make sure the image takes up all the room you want. You don't want to stretch it later.
Go to save as and choose jpeg.
Image options should pull up. Choose low quality. If it is over 100K use the slider to lower it even more. I'm not sure exectly where the cutoff is, but mine worked at 85.1k
