Hello guys, I wanted to start a collection of bootscreens for Wildfire!
Guide on how to make/use custom boot-screens by melvinchng.
Also a quick guide on how to use these bootscreens in post #3.
Download Link in the images, CLICK THE IMAGES TO DOWNLOAD
Earth Latest Screen (still tweaking on this one)
This is a Bootscreen I did for my buddy daddyspud's Ds ROM
Google bootscreen loader created by djdevine2
This current screen is a first of many that I want to give out to the community.
Lets fire up the phone!
Aurora streak
Here are the N1 style bootscreens
_____
Download both N1 screens and additional files here
N1 CyanogenMod Bootscreens
_____
Please let me know what you think of the screens that I upload. Also all suggestions are welcome!
The animated previews you see on this page are low quality animated gif images which are set to loop through the whole sequence, the final files that you get will have good quality animations with proper loops.
Hope you find these useful.
So here is a video of a few select bootscreens. Just wanted something better than the Gif's above, (still not that great) all these look even better on the phone.
How to use these Bootscreens.
First off this is a basic guide, if there are easier/better/correct methods, please do let me know
Please read the full guide before starting.
Theory: So once you have the bootscreen.zip downloaded, you need to send it to your phone's internal memory in a particular location. Generally this location is data/local, but depending on your current ROM the location may differ.
Things required:
Rooted phone
Root explorer (or any similar app that gives you access to edit the internal memory eg: super manager)
Procedure:
Copy the downloaded bootscreen.zip file to your sd-card.
Open root explorer (or anything similar).
(backup) Just in case anything goes wrong or if you want to keep a copy of the original boot animation, copy to bootanimation.zip file you find in data/local directory to your sd-card.
Long press the bootscreen.zip file that you downloaded and copy it. (in root explorer long press open context menu, may change depending on your app)
Navigate to data/local on your phone's internal memory and paste the file. Accept the prompt about replacing the file that already exists.
You're done!
Reboot and enjoy.
Note: If the bootscreen.zip file is not found under data/local run a search through the app or on the ROM zip package that you have installed to get the location.
For those of you running CyanogenMod 7, you dont have to replace the original file, placing the bootscreen.zip file under data/local is enough.

That will be a great help mate, but only if you are free to do so, and pointing me to a noobs guide for getting started with flashable zip packages in itself will be a huge help (i have found a few threads, but they go in too deep)

not flashable, copy via root explorer
really "Wildfire", i wish u can make some fire to burn apple
Hey I like the N1 animation alot, but it seems to go too fast... if I simply change the 30 fps to say, 20, will that make it slower? and will it take longer to boot because the animation is slower, is there a set amount of times the animations run before you enter the OS itself? Or does the animation run untill the OS loaded up?
Here's a little boot animation I threw together from the Movie Alien's Teaser Trailer.
I installed using absolute system root tools.
using root explorer rename attached alien.zip to bootanimation.zip and move it to /system/media folder.

Note quite sure how to make a flashable .zip, so if anyone has any info on how to do that, I would appreciate it.
Here ya go:

No package manager. You just have to zip/unzip correctly including update binary and script. If you unzip the one I uploaded you will see the folder structure. If you open the update script with notepad, you will see how that works.
The CWM zips are different for Froyo and Gingerbread, and that is why I tend to name them with 2.3.4 in there.
It's really straight forward. You can pretty much figure them out just by unzipping and analyzing one. I included the audio folder in this zip even though there is no audio, but if you wanted to add audio you would modify desc.txt appropriately, and drop the audio file into system/media/audio/notifications before zipping again.
If you download a couple of animations from here -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15529644&postcount=1, you can unzip them and examine the structure. They are almost identical.

The instructions in the post indicated here for update scripts will not work on Gingerbread, (2.3.4/4.5.91). This works with Froyo.
Also, the audio location changed from /system/media to /system/media/audio/notifications with Gingerbread.
wow i flashed this its cool can i make just one request that you take a look at the alienv3 and can u make the text in this animation like a neon green color it will go perfict with that rom and theme thank you??!!
beemed up useing an alienv3 s-off, bootloader unlocked!! /overclocked /faux123(thanks)for all the great development on these awsome devises!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll take a look, the animation is direct from clips from the original trailer, so I don't know how good edits will turn out...

Tweaked for our resolution.

Simply replace and set permissions.
cwm zip file does not work on cm7
unzipped the file myself and replaced bootanimation.zip in /system/media/ and it worked flawlessly (changed permissions to rw-r--r--)
good job nottach!

that's because it's not a CWM zip file.

Download to your phone.
Go into root explorer
/sdcard/download
-copy boot.zip
paste in /system/media
Make sure you are in r/w mode....done
This is pretty. Thanks!

Thanks for the download. looks nice.
I hate to be a noob, but I just want to be safe. Can you change boot animations on stock rooted or do you need to have a custom rom flashed. Is it really as easy as copy and pasting. Along with renaming your old animation.zip

Yup, it's that easy. This was one of the first things I tried after rooting. Just make sure the file permission are set correctly on the new bootanimation.zip folder or you will get a default "android" bootanimation.

Thanks a bunch. Just don't want anything bad happening since my Captivate bricked
Thank you Notach!!!! my Atrix looks so cool!!
Love this boot animation. Best one I've seen by a phone builder.
Any way to make this a live wallpaper? Can't find where the foldr is in root explorer.

Do you still have the captivate? If so I may be able to fix it for you and if I can't I know Josh from mobiletechreviews.com probably can. I would try for the cost of shipping with no guarantees, Josh charges a reasonable fee but it would be worth it to have it working for a backup. Have you tried using a jig on it to get into download mode?
You can pm me and hopefully if you still have it we can get it running for you again.

Sorry I'm a little confused on how to get this working. I'm on CM7. Downloaded it. Went to root explorer and cord and pasted it to system/media and set permission but when I rebooted it was standard CM7 boot up. Did I need to extract the zip to media folder? Sorry for the confusion never messed with boot img before
Edit. Ok I tried extracting and I got a folder named bootanimation and I fixed permissions on that one also and rebooted but no luck :-\

I just flashed the r330 of the Viper3d rom on an GSM Evo 3d. Any way to get the sense 4.1 keyboard(the one that is in rev310-12), not the new sense 4.5 one? I hate it, i got used to the old one and i want it back. Any way besides flashing the old version of the rom?
LE: is it enough if i switch the HTC_IME apk from the old rom, with the new one? or do i have to do something else too?
i tried replacing them in the zip's. Extracted the r330 zip, replaced the htc_ime.apk file, recompressed to zip but couldn't flash "installation aborted". Also i can't install the htc_ime over the current one...i'm out of ideas...
Just take htc_ime.apk from old rom and place to system/app, and set permissions like all the other apps, reboot and thats it

It requires a bit more for some reason. There are additional libs n such needed as well. Someone has already ported it though-good news. I'll find the link. Be back

I have the file from the old revision, but still doesn't work. replacing this with the one in r330, and it will work? if so, thank you. But from what i hear, replacing the ime apk is not enough, some libs need replacing too and i have no idea about libs

i am trying this too. tried flashing sensai's 4.1 keyboard over r330 of venom rom, the system is spamming me with "htc sense input has stopped working"...what libs need replacing and how can i do that? i HATE the sense 4+ keyboard, want the normal sense 4 one...
I recently flashed the international ROM onto my AT&T HTC One, and found the flashlight application found on the International HTC One very nice. I have no Idea why this wasn't in the AT&T varient, but it sure would be nice to have that ported over the the AT&T version, as the 3 levels of brightness are very nice to have, as I had to go back to the AT&T Rom due to some Play store issues.
Could you just extract it from the zip of the other Rom and paste it into system and set permissions?
Edit: I just did this- worked like a charm. Extracted it from the TrickDroid ROM I have on my SD card. Copied, pasted to system/app, set perms to rw-r--r--

EDIT: I tried doing the same thing, downloaded the tricky rom and extracted the apk. Problem is when I go to put it in the system/app folder and changing permissions, after rebooting it disappeared. I tried doing an install on the app by clicking it and found that it errors out with a "app not installed." Was there anything else needed to get the flashlight working?
EDIT: I got it working. I actually extracted the apk from the STOCK odex International rom that Android Revolution HD used. Found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752
After that I extracted the apk that was in "One_1.29.401.13_odexed.zip\data\preload" and copied to "/data/app" instead of "/system/app" and changed to said permission above "rw-r--r--". Works great now.
anyway to make this into an installable apk for those of us NOT rooted (yet)

you don't need to be rooted to install these.
just download them on your device then click them. it should ask you to allow unknown sources.
go to settings > security > tick the unknown sources box
then install the apps.
