Ported for the Dell Streak 5 (and 7) from Flokey's Galaxy Tab bootanimation. Someone over at Modaco asked for this, so here ya go:
Instructions:
Copy to /data/local and rename to "bootanimation.zip"
more detailed instructions here
cool, does it play that fast on streak?
Not sure yet. Trying it out now. If it does, I'll just dial back the frame rate.
::Edit:: animation looks fine. It's at regular speed, unlike the video, which appears to be in chipmunk speed
hmm i copied to data/local but screen is just blank till it starts. Any ideas?

Did you rename the file to bootanimation.zip? Use RootExplorer or similar to delete or move /data/local/bootanimation.zip and copy to /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Nice bootup dude cheers
GREAT Job! Thank you for fulfilling my request. It's spot on!

Try changing the permissions on the file to read/write, read, read.
If that doesn't work, move it to /system/media/ and set the permissions as above.
Changing the read/write worked. Thanks. Great start up.
Nick,
The animation look slick on Streak. However, i was wondering if you can convert it to portrait, as it runs in landscape mode for the moment? Or at least point me ho to do it?
Cheers mate,

unzip the package and use gimp or imagemagick to mogrify rotate and crop the images. When you zip it back up, use 7zip and make sure it is set to store mode (no compression).

Question #1
Im kinda frustrated because i cant make this bootanimation to work with my eris.
http://droidboots.com/wp-content/themes/jq/view/drain-hole/icons/supermario_201.gif
When i run it it only shows the top left quarter of the screen.
I tried everything,if i resize pictures, edit the desc.txt i always get a black screen.
Question #2
Is there a way to add sound to a bootanimation.?
Thanks for yall's anwsers.
#1 = no idea

do you have the original bootanimation.zip file for this. It might be anything from the original image size to how the bootanimation.zip file is zipped. Don't know unless I can take a look.

as far as I know, you can not resize gifs or they stop working and become an image
you will have to make it in the right size to start with

They are not GIF, they are PNG. I resized them as png as well.
After you changed the image sizes to 320 by 480, the zip file needs to be zipped with no compression.

is there anyway you can get me the bootanimation.zip file that you created with the resized .png images. maybe upload it to a drop.io site or attach it to your post if you can. I would like to take see if I can get it working then send it back to you.

I'm sorry for bumping and asking you this but I edited a boot animation I got in XDA and re-zipped it as "Store". When I pushed it via adb (adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local) and tested it out, a black screen showed.
Attached here is the boot animation. Thanks in advance!
Try this! It worked for me.
*note, on some roms the boot animation is located in /system/media.

Looks like it was a problem when you made your .zip file. After you zip your folder, open the .zip with windows explorer, you should see the Part0, Part1 and desc.txt files. If you have to go through a folder first, it won't work. I rezipped it for you and attached it below.

HOT! will definitely flash this if it is compatible..
Do you have the link to the bootanimation.zip for this. Splash is the static screen before the animation
Edit: nevermind I found it. Yes it runs on our phones, however the image is kinda small (uses about 1/3 of the screen right in the middle) and would need to be resized to look right.
Great post a link if we get this set up. Anyone care to pm me the process of changing the bootscreen?

it did the same on mine, I believe it is because the animation images are wrong resolution for our phones they are 256x256 instead of 480x800

Does anyone have a working bootanimation.zip without the AT&T logo? I tried editing the original one but I ended up with a blank boot animation screen.
you should be able to search the forum for whatever boot animation you want. Granted they won't be the proper resolution if you pick one with black edges you will be fine. I was using one on a previous flash just fine.
I'll try to find the thread where I found mine

I tried those animations and they worked fine, but I still wish I could keep the original animation.
Boot Animations, while can be tricky and a headache, are customizable if you can adjust the image sizes, etc.
For example, the Motorola Atrix can use up to 540x960 for the resolution. You can also add custom sounds at load by saving an OGG audio file to /system/media (same location as the bootanimation.zip) and adding it accordingly to the desc.txt file. Below is an example.
Code:
540 960 1
p 1 10 part0
s autodestruct.ogg
p 0 0 part1
The first line is the resolution and the frames per second.
Code:
"540 960" Resolution "1" Frames Per Second (each individual image)
The second line defines a Part. For example, the first animation you want to play. So far for me, this is the animation AFTER the Dual Core logo that plays when I've made mine.
Code:
"p" Depicts this is a Part "1" Repeat this many times (0 is infinite) "10" is the delay in frames before the next Part "part0" is the directory within the zip to load this part from
So far easy right? The next line, is for the audio file. If the OGG has a loop point, the audio will loop until the Part is over that it plays within.
Code:
"s" Depicts a sound "autodestruct.ogg" The filename to load from /system/media
A few more examples of loading parts............
To load a Part that is a single image, that loops till boot is done, use this
Code:
p 0 0 "directory_name_here"
I'll try to post some example bootanimation.zip files with explanations if I get time. I've only made a couple so far for my company out of boredom.

I recommend using your file explorer to rename the original bootanimation.zip on your phone to something like bootanimation_original.zip then put in your custom if you have any worries.
That way, if you go to update just rename custom to bootanimation_custom.zip and restore the original.
Personally, I do not know if the boot animation file will affect updates, but that is a failsafe for you just in case.

Ohh, so what you want is the default bootanimation without the ATT part!
I've personally never worked with bootanimations before, but using MrSER's guide above, i'll try to do that for you.

EDIT 2: figured it out. if you're using WinRAR, when you go to make a .zip, choose "store" instead of "normal" compression, and it should work just fine. I have attached the Default bootanimation.zip without the ATT part

thanks for the bootanimation.zip, i did chmod 644 it before cp to /system/media to match the perms on the original bootanimation.zip, but i did a reboot and it worked fine. it's nice not having the att logo during boot, and having att removed from the notification bar with the ginerblur mod too. feels good man!

Just find a boot animation that you like, download the zip file, rename it to bootanimation.zip and then go into your system/media folder and change the name of the current bootanimation to anything you want like bootanimationold.zip. Then put the new zip file in the system/media folder and there you go. You do not need to move the old boot animation file as long as you change the name.
of course, the method I'm describing is relevant if you have rooted your phone and you have something like Root Explorer, otherwise you will need to use adb, but still you need root.

I'm trying to create my own bootanimation and was wondering if any of you guys know how to make it play in landscape mode?
I'm not aware of any way using the desc.txt so you'll probably just have to rotate the images.
Yup. Have to rotate images.

Without downloading your files, (I am at work and don't have the time right now), I would say you probably did not zip the files correctly.
1. Download and install 7-Zip.
2. Highlight your boot animation files, (CTRL or SHIFT and left click).
3. Right click on selected files.
4. Select 7-Zip > Add to archive.
5. Set Archive Format to Zip and Compression Level to Store.
6. Name your zip file accordingly (e.g. bootanimation).
7. Click OK.
Your bootanimation.zip should now be zipped correctly.
---------- Post added at 10:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------
OK, I did the work for you. It was the way you zipped the boot animation up. Here is the working animation:

Yeah, you can. You don't need a sd card, because the bootanimation is in the internal memory.
Cheers buddy.
i tried to change it yesterday and dowloaded the new bootanimation to my pc i copied it over to the phone (dragged and dropped it), but when i check the phone via es file explorer i cant see it so thought you needed an sd card in the first place.
And do i just delete the old bootanimation from my phone or do i back it up somewhere.
Will have another go tonight.
Thanks

i tried to change it yesterday and dowloaded the new bootanimation to my pc i copied it over to the phone (dragged and dropped it), but when i check the phone via es file explorer i cant see it so thought you needed an sd card in the first place.
And do i just delete the old bootanimation from my phone or do i back it up somewhere.
Will have another go tonight.
Thanks
Saf

check to make sure its not an entire update zip that you are pushing to your system media, aslong as it just consists of a desc.txt and a few parts, yeh you can push it there as described. if its an update.zip, just use it or if you want, extract the files and the smaller bootanimation.zip will be inside for you.

Awesome! Yep I think that was my mistake, i was pushing the entire update zip folder tot the phone, didnt think to extract the bootanimation.zip from it. Thanks for that mate, will have a look when i get home.
