ATTENTION: THIS MOD IS FOR DELL VENUE PHONE ONLY, NOT FOR VENUE TABLETS
I just tested this boot animation that was written for Dell Streak on my Venue, and...it works!
I know we are about to get some custom ROMs thanks to Manii and whoever else can cook custom ROMS but I got tired of looking at the Olleh logo and wanted to try. So glad it worked!
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309941
If your Venue is rooted, first move the zip file to your SD card. After that move that file to /data/local folder using Root Explorer or similar app and reboot. Enjoy!
Majority of the flashable stuff on the s5 will work fine on the V, only issue is safely flashing it.
A lot of it can be manually copied over though.
Cool, I was hoping that was the case. Looking forward to your new ROM. Already using the rooted deodexed one.
you don't really need to get bootanimation from Streak 5 to make it work on Venue though, I tried with some bootanimation of my Glacier and they work just fine on Venue. We just need to adjust the speed in desc.txt

does this work with CM 7 rom installed?
I like best MIUI theme, It has more optional for you choose!
Alright, thanks for the link OP I rooted the V just to get that boot animation. I wanted it bigger and better definition so I remade the animation with a better source. I have made successful animations before so it was no big deal, but this one has caused a bootloop and seems to have corrupted my recovery as well. Any ideas on a fix? been trying adb pull with no success as of yet.

After looking for a while in different forums, I finally was able to get R2D2 as my boot animation for my Streak. I adjusted the images to be in landscape position to fit nicely on the 5" screen. To install it, download and unzip the file, place the file on your SD card, and reboot into recovery to install it from zip file. I am not sure if the Dell Streak can play audio during boot up or not, but I was not able to get it working.
Thanks goes out to Team Black Hat for the original file.
R2D2 is now on my streak
I did have problem where I couldnt get it to flash, so instead I renamed the r2d2-bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip and put it in system/media folder.
I use the StreakMod Recovey instead of clockwork so that might have been the reason I couldnt get it to flash.
Sorry I forgot to mention that I use clockworkmod to flash it. Thanks for the alternative way to get it on there.

Nice work thanks
Is this a one off or is there more in the pipeline

I think you can also put it in data/local..Seems to work on my G2..Your way of putting it in system/media also worked for me..Seems easier to do if you have root explorer. Any link with screenshots?
Im sure that I will be making more boot animations. I just need to find the time to do them.

Data/local works fine for bootanimation.zip
nice
the sound is not possible since there is no service playing it in dell streak os
Another great thing about this animation it makes waiting while booting seem less stressful after installing a new taskbar, since the wait is using longer than on a normal boot.
ADB command is:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
But, I forgot that stupid 30pin sync cable so I wanted to do it from the phone using terminal. Still had to download .7z file using computer and renamed it to bootanimation.zip and copied to my phone wirelessly using dropbox. (then longpress file name in dropbox and "download")
Terminal command:
su
cp /sdcard/dropbox/bootanimation.zip /data/local/
reboot

Big props on this boot animation! It looks absolutely fantastic!
Not that I mind too terribly much but when I installed dmesg and ran it I lost my boot animation all together. Fun.
I'm rooted on 4.1.57 running GreyBlur 2.1 or whatever the newest is. I used root explorer and made sure there is a bootanimation.zip file where it belongs. Tried manually adding different boot animation zips via rootexplorer. Nada.
Am I missing something?
You can try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1042736, but I don't really know if it will work or not. It is a theme removal app which will also allow you to attempt to reset your boot animation to stock. Has worked for me. It will only replace the bootanimation.zip but won't change any of the settings that call it., so if those are messed up then this won't help.
Just make sure you say no to the first question in the bat or else it will maul your greyblur theming.
Awesome! Ill give that a shot once I can get on a windows machine at work tomorrow. Luckily this isn't a life or death problem.

You can also download one of the fine boot animations here in the forum straight to your device and then copy it to the /system/media directory on your phone.
heres two I made
red: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AEN45QBA
blue: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PKBOLCT4
Ive actually tried that with no dice.
I'm using the newest CyanogenMod (I think) 7.1.0 on BL 1.1.
I'm trying to change the boot animation by finding the bootanimation.zip file in the media folder and replacing it with one I like better, a process I saw on androidpolice.com. It's not working--the animation is the same. The only way I've been able to change it is by using a flashable animation.
Can anyone help with tips or just telling me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
HoneyComb boot animation
I'm also very curious on how to do this right, as we're using HoneyComb on our very budget Gtab, which works amazingly well (minus the lack of hardware support/features) but as like many, the 'Boot Animation' is awful!

Step 3 looks like what I've been doing. I'll try it again anyway. Thanks.
READ CAREFULLY....
as we are getting new updates from our devs...thanks to them to make streak alive...
so i thought why not getting a new bootanimation for our streaker's with new roms...
i was really sick with the old dell animation and different boot screens as everyone know
our streak must be booted once or twice a week as we are all on custom 'alpha, beta, gamma' -_- roms
so i decided to work specially on transforming an old dell logo into a new dell logo and
YES you will here an audio while booting.
GIF ANIMATION:
http://www.4shared.com/photo/1FSBEv4-/MH_dell_HD_1.html
YOUTUBE:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5xVg9yZwmU
READ CAREFULLY....
Installation Instructions:
1st method (streakmod recovery):
1. Download the madbootanimation.zip file (anywhere) in SdCard.
2. Battery must be above 60% or 70%.
3. Reboot into streakmod recovery and select update.zip and follow the path where you downloaded the madbootanimation.zip and select.
4. Read the process step by step.
5. Done! now reboot.
2nd method (root explorer):
1. Device must be rooted.
2. Find any root explorer and install.
3. Enable root permissions.
4. Download two files in SdCard
5. Copy and follow the path system/media/"..." overwrite files.
6. Done! now reboot.
NOTE:
Plz read carefully as you are doing this at your own risk if you want to blame me you are always welcome !!!
If you want to backup your current bootanimation file then simply rename or copy somewhere else.
Don't do reboots just to see the bootanimation as reboots effects battery life so i made a gif animation and to hear with audio, a youtube link is uploaded.
Two flashable files(madbootanimation1.zip and madbootanimation2.zip) (streakmod recovery) and two files (bootanimation.zip and android_audio.mp3) (root explorer) are provided in below links.
Why Two flashable files, well first is for the good guys who THANKS and second for bad guys who don't THANK me, both files are same but installs a different way one installs fast and other slow, dont panic while installation, let it complete nothing will harm or happen to you or to your device
Hit my thanks meter and enjoy
All flashable files resides in 'system/media/"...." only'.
For different roms who have different places like data/local/"...." select the 2nd method of installation process.
Full animation preview may differ on different roms depending upon time of booting to lockscreen.
Follow all the steps carefully as we are all not PROFESSIONALS.

I do have to say the boot anim looks really nice, great job!

Thanks for this! Just installed but animation plays in portrait not landscape like the video. Also, no sound. Running stock deodexed 407 & Phoenix U11 kernel.
I have same problem
Wicked bootanimation!
Works in landscape for me, the only prob I have is the audio isn't working.
I'm using miui.
Do I need to put the audio in a different folder?
Thanks for this great work!

updated to support more roms, if commented in details to which roms its working or not can help me alot...:good:
I can tell you that the boot audio will only work on Longhorn and Miui(if you change the file name and place of file) currently. The boot animation should work on any ROM. To change portrait to landscape and vice versa, simply swap the dimensions in the txt file. CM7 and Miui have the screens rotated 90 more degrees than DSC and stock ROMs, so there is that challenge.
thanx for sharing d info

Liked the boot animation video a lot.
But It didn't work on MIUI 2.420 CM7 ROM....
Tried both flashing and Root explorer
I haven't seen anyone mention of it yet. Does anyone know how to get custom boot animations in the bootanimation.zip format working? I've already tried all posted fixes for other Samsung note devices with no success. Best I've gotten was a blank screen during boot. Any suggestions?

There a few custom bootanimation threads - I believe you need a .bin file from one of these and you should be able to use it for other .zip files...
Look for lion king bootanimation in this forum, you might need to go back a little while though....

furst make sure busybox is installed correctly on you're device.
then flash: bootanimationON
download here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxH_2Mr6REVjRnU0ME5xd3V4S2s/edit?usp=sharing
this will make a backup from you're system/bin/bootanimation and make a bootanimation.bak file
and replace with mod bootanimation file to use bootanimation.zip
this is to restore: to go back to standard qmg
download here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxH_2Mr6REVjdFlGSFF0bVVmXzA/edit?usp=sharing
you also need you're bootanimation.zip you want to use
this zip needs to be placed in system/media.
"AFTER" you put this bootanimation.zip in system/media "THEN" flash bootanimationON
works 100.1% sure
enjoy
Ill give it a shot later. I tried the files for the note 3 without success.
Update- thanks for the file. Works great. Custom animation worked immediately after flashing.
