in his desc.txt delete line 24 480 800 to register and try to go 480 800 15
p 1 15:confused , but I'm not sure

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.

custom bootscreens streak 2.2

was playing around a bit with the build-in dell boot screen. since i want my own i tried figuring out how.
in system/media there is a file called bootanimation.zip
i tried many different pictures and such and all i get is a black screen.
no idea what is the problem. i altered the text file on the phone itself. did this on windows but it seems that additional characters are added.
in the end i found out that 72dpi 24bit 480 800 16 color files should do.
but over and over again i get black screen. in the end i tried a bootanimation.zip from a friends G1 that runs this droid x r2d1 theme. and guess what.. it works ??
attached it down here.
anyone got any idea what can be the problem with this bootscreens ?
as soon as i change the zip file it wont work anymore but if i leave it as it is it works fine, allthough it has different screensize and such.
use 7zip... set it to STORE and no compression. Make sure you dont have any thumb files in there after and retry
template for bootanimation.zip

was using winrar for it. on normal compression. im gonna try what u suggest
edit : that worked used winrar and set it to STORE instead of NORMAL compression.
it seems the bootanimation.zip should be in /Data/Local/ as Android operating system looks here first and then when it doesn't find it there it looks in /System/Media/
it doesnt have any problem with different bootanimation.zip in both dirs, it just loads the one in /Data/Local/ first.
use this template zip i made for your own creations
desc.txt file :
480 800 16
-> size of screen 480x800 and FPS that the stuff should play @
p 1 0 part0
-> p is for part dir. this lets android know which dir to use first to show the pictures. the first number 1 is 0 or 1 repeat on/off. the second is pauze time. part0 is foldername where pics are to be found.
p 0 0 part1
-> p is for part dir. this lets android know which dir to use next to show the pictures. the first number 1 is 0 or 1 repeat on/off. the second is pauze time.part 1 is foldername where the pics are to be found.
If pause = 10, it will show the last frame and then it will sleep 10/fps seconds before continuing with the animation.
you can add as many pictures as you like as long as they follow up in numbers . i.e. yourname_0001.png yourname_0002.png yourname_0005.png yourname_0025.png .. and so on. as long as the files have increased numbers its fine.
awesome, thanks!
now we cant start debranding this thing
any idea about boot sound?
I thought I saw bootanim.raw
and part1.raw
and part0.raw
in root explorer
any ideas?
I managed to change it, but I am unable to change the first dell logo splash screen that pops up.... grrr...
can we change the splash screen yet?

splashscreen is in loader in the firmware/bios
i found somewhere where to put the audiofiles..
/system/customize/resources/
I have /system/customization..inside there is an MMs and a Wallpaper folder
no /system/customize/resources.
should I create it, what should the bootsound be named bootsound.mp3? or .ogg?
Thanks
ya know whats weird, is i bought an at&t version from bestbuy and i have yet to see any sort of branding at all aside from the network block...
nothing. no logo on the phone or boot screen or menus etc..
i entered an unlock code already and as best i can tell its the same as the unlocked dell version other than i can taked it back to best buy for 30 days and get a new streak as opposed to sending it back in for a refurb which is what you get straight through dell.
of course after 30 day thats what i have to do as well..send it back in for a refurb...

i dont see the bootsound service in init.rc so i presume there isnt going to be audio until there is a script playing it.
in the desc.txt add these line
s bootsound.ogg
and add a bootsound.ogg in data/local
put the bootanimation.zip also there and delete all other instances of the file.
didn't work for me, added line at end of desc.txt, and bootsound.ogg in /data/local and removed any other my backupanimation.zip from the /local folder..
nothing...
I would just be satisfied to get the first splash screen changed without too much trouble.

yu, it requires a service to play the audio file, which isnt there. so it wont play any sound. maybe someone with some android knowledge can implent it.

[Q] Thunderbolt Boot Animation Help?

So far I've found a lot of helpful threads on boot animations... I am simply modifying the existing one on my phone...
what I'm trying to do...
when a thunderbolt boots up it says "HTC"
then it says "HTC quietly brilliant"
then the thunderbolt clip with BAMF in the bottom right corner...
I WANT to replace the .PNG file that has "HTC quitly brilliant" to "HTC quietly rooted" with a pic of an android eating an apple...
THATS IT... I have made the picture i want in photoshop, named it the same name...
I have copied the zip off my phone, put that picture (png file) over the existing one in the .zip.... then renamed the bootanimation.zip file in my phone to bootanimation_original.zip and copied the new verizon to the same file as bootanimaton.zip... the phone boots... says "HTC" then its black and goes straight into the thunderbolt boot thing...
the only thing i can think is that the file is too big... the original is about 14kb the new one is 26kb... I tried saving it smaller but that was as small as i can get it through photoshop...
any help would be much appreciated!... (i also changed the file to 'read only' as the original was also)
please help!
thank you!
So if i understand correctly, you are seeing the rest of the animation.
If that's the case, then it has to be a problem with the image. It could be something as simple as the file name.
If you can't get it figured out, post it here as an attachment and I would be happy to take a look at it for you.

I don't think the file size matters i have made a bunch of different ones. One thing to check is inside the bootanimation.zip file there is a text document called Desc.txt you have to adjust your desc file accordingly. Mainly you want your image width and height.
your desc should look something like this
"480 800 15p 1 45 androidp 1 1 VZWp 1 300 progress"
480 and 800 being you width and height, 15p is your frames per second, 1 is the number of times for the video to loop( change to 0 if you want that animation to loop to boot is complete), and not sure about the 45 i think how long to wait before starting images in the VZW folder. and same goes for numbers after VZWp. Also not sure on the progress most likely to hold last image till boot process is completed.
Edit:
Also when you re compress the ZIP file make sure you change the setting for compression method to "Store"

Correct, I CAN see the rest of the animation, just NOT that part I replaced... here's how I did it at first... at first I just copied the file out, made the adjustments I waned, and then dragged and dropped it back in the zip'd folder (I use windows XP if that makes any difference) it put my file over the existing one in the .zip.... then i put that in place of the bootanimation.zip on the phone...
THEN i tried downloading 7-Zip... i unzipped the whole file, put my file in, re-zipped my whole folder with NO compression... that killed the entire animation boot up thing all together... I'm using se explorer with root permissions to put these in the system/media folder...
so... yeah... not getting very far...
Tried attaching the .zip but it was 11mb and i can only post up to 8mb .zips... i'll post JUST the image, which is the correct width/height...
it is also named exactly what the other file was named...
I'm not sure what bootanimation file you are starting with but since you say it says BAMF I'll assume it's the bootanimation from the das BAMF ROM.
Actually, I made the bootanimations for the BAMF ROMS.
The only thing that confuses me is that it is only about 4MB in size?
Attached is the one from the BAMF ROM with your picture in it.
Just rename it to bootanimation.zip, put it on tour TB and see if that's the one you wanted.
I put it on my phone to test and it works as it should.
I realize this thread is a bit old, but I'm having a similar problem.
I'm using cyanogenmod on my thunderbolt, but since I like red, I thought I'd try changing the boot anim.
So I extracted the original boot anim and hue shifted the images, then re-zipped it and i get nothing at all. Putting the original back works fine. Is there maybe something that 7-zip does to make it not work, or maybe something that photoshop did to the images? I have opened the zip that i made on the phone and viewed the images there so the gallery can read the images once extracted from the zip. (If that makes a difference.)
Edit: Apparently my problem was that the only way to get it to show was to use store for the zip compression.

[Q] Q about boot animation developpement [SOLVED]

Hello!
I've made my first boot animation for my phone (atrix 4G)... But I still have a few problems. Maybe someone can help me?
First, when the phone is booting, my animation is displayed but only for a few second (maybe 2 or 3) before a black screen appears until the phone ended to boot (about 15/20 sec.). What I don't understand, is that the animation is normally during about 12 sec... First mistery!
The second one is that no sound is playing during the animation... But I put a .ogg file in system/media folder and entered the command line in the desc.txt file with the right name.
Here is what I have in my desc file:
540 960 25
p 0 0 JM
s JM.ogg
I don't understand where is the problem...
Thanks a lot if someone has an idea.. And sorry for my aproximative english!

For Gingerbread, the sound file has to be in /system/media/notifications
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
could you post the zip? I don't see anything wrong with it, other than the previously mentioned fix for the sound, maybe I could find the problem with a more hands on approach
I have had problems in the past when using upper case to name folders and audio files with boot animations. Never knew why I would have issues, but I always use lower case for everything now just as a matter of course. Also, as previously mentioned, you need to change the location of your audio file.
It may also be because you have only one animations folder. I have done a lot of boot animations, and always have a part0 and part1 folder and haven't had problems.
540 960 25
p 1 0 jm
s jm.ogg

How are you zipping the boot animations?
Should be using 7-Zip with format set to zip, and compression level set to store.
First of all, thanks for the sound fix, it just works great in the right folder...

I tried to create two folders... Same issue...
My file is zipping with winrar, using "simple storage" mode. But if there were a problem with the zipping, I think the bootanimation shouldn't work at all. Mine is working... But for a few seconds only!

AFAIK the folders names that contain the main animation and the looping part must be named "part0" for main animation and "part1" for the loop. So not "JM" and "JM0" but "part0" and "part1". But I think your desc.txt goes along with the two folder names that you had, so maybe change it like a regular desc.txt that goes along with the folder names part0 and part1.
Finally I used the original bootanimation folder from ATT and just put my images instead of the ATT's and it just work fine.
I can't understand what's the trouble with my file, but now it's working.

I don't think this is the problem because in the original bootanimation, folders are named "ATT", "ATT Freeze", "Intro"... Not Part1, Part 2...
So, I'll put the tread in solved... even if it isn't really! Thanks for your help!
Here is your bootanimation fixed and working fine. I just downloaded your animation, then changed some stuff around, rezipped with 7-Zip, and uploaded again.
Maybe looking at this will help you for the future.

[Q] Custom Boot Animation

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.

[HOW TO] REZOUND ICS BOOTANIMATIONs

I figured I would share with the community since people are finding ICS a little tricky
*JUST AN UPDATE. I FOUND THAT THE BEATS AND VZW FOLDERS CAN HAVE ANY NUMBER OF IMAGES*
What you need:
boot animation creator.exe (windows program) get it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1234611 (credit to despotovski01)
7zip (windows program) http://www.7-zip.org/
fotosizer (windows program) http://www.fotosizer.com/
some type of boot animation (youtube video, collection of images, whatever)
the stock VZW boot animation (attached)
file explorer app (root explorer, es file explorer, etc)
Steps:
create a folder somewhere that you will be working from
in that folder, create a folder named VZW
use fotosizer to rename the images.
USE THESE SETTINGS : Preset size - original, destination folder (the folder you created earlier named VZW, output format - JPEG, file name mask (this is important) render_720x1280_compress %NNN
add your images to fotosizer and click start. it will output the images to the folder you chose all named "render_720x1280_compress xxx.jpeg"
grab the "beats" folder and the "android" folder from the stock animation
place these folders with VZW
open the boot animation creator.exe
choose the folder that contains beats, android and VZW and choose next
HERE IS THE TRICKY PART: the settings have to be like this or it wont work
android - 1 15
beats - 1 15
VZW - X 90 (x can be as many times as you want the image set in the VZW folder to repeat)
width - 720
height - 1280
speed - 15
choose next and save it anywhere you want. The file must be named Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip
Place the zip on your sd card and drop it where ever you ROM has its boot animation (either /system/customize/resource or /data/local or /system/media)
change the permissions to RW-R-R using a file explorer and reboot
IF YOU DON'T WANT THE BEATS ANIMATION:
use fotosizer once again to rename your first 35 images to "Beats Audio Animation as JPG Seq XX" the same way as you did with the VZW folder and place them in the "beats" folder
you will need to redo the naming process again for the VZW folder
follow the same steps for the bootanimation creator.exe program
IF YOU WANT LANDSCAPE
Simply open the folder that your images are stored in, single click on the first image, press and hold the shift key, click on the last image. right click and choose rotate clockwise. proceed as normal.
you can also create a flashable zip (include with the tools and credit Mr.Smith317) with the animation placed in the correct location
(there may be other ways of doing this process, but this ways has always worked without fail)
DOWNLOAD THE TOOLS
Adding sound :
grab your sound file. it must be an mp3 and shouldn't be longer than 15 seconds
rename it to android_audio.mp3
the default.xml file in /system/customize/CID needs to be edited
find this line 3/4 of the way down in the xml file
<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip"
add this to the end
"audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" audiostart="VZW"/>
the whole line should be
<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip"audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" audiostart="VZW"/>
*notice "/system/customize/resource/Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip? thats where your boot animation is stored*
place you audio mp3 file in the same folder as the boot animation
change permissions to RW-R-R
reboot
the sound will start to play when the VZW folder images start. if you want to change this edit this part of the line you added
audiostart="VZW"/> to what ever folder you want it to start at

add your images to fotosizer and click start. it will output the images to the folder you chose all named "render_720x1280_compress xxx.jpeg"
change the first 9 images so that they are named "render_720x1280_compress 001, 002, 003" etc
if you have more than 100 images rename them as "render_720x1280_compress 100, 101, 102" etc (the goal is to end up with the imaged names 001 to XXX consecutively)
grab the "beats" folder and the "android" folder from the stock animation
place these folders with VZW
open the boot animation creator.exe
choose the folder that contains beats, android and VZW
HERE IS THE TRICKY PART: the settings have to be like this or it wont work
android - 1 15
beats - 1 15
VZW - X 90 (x can be as many times as you want the image in VZW to repeat)

speed - 15
choose next and save it anywhere you want. The file must be named Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip

THANK YOU. i wanted to port my boot animation but it wasnt working. i cant wait to try.
I made a ton of boot animations a while back, mostly for the inc and EVO. I opened one of the stock Rezound ones up the other to look around inside at the files. Why are the folders duplicated? The one I looked at has 2 beats, 2 vzw, etc. They seem to have the exact same images in them.
Also. Which animation does what? On a couple if Roma I tried the.boot animation was different depending on how I booted. Doing a full power down and reboot was different than doing a hot reboot.

If you change "render_720x1280_compress 0%N" to "render_720x1280_compress %NNN" you don't have to go back and add the extra 0 to the first 9 or fix anything over 100.

FPS?
First of all great guide, and congrats on making the first page. I was wondering if there was any way to increase the FPS (im trying to increase it to 25) of the boot animation, I've noticed that anytime I change it in boot animation creator, my animation doesn't work anymore. If I can't change it in the boot animation creator, what would be the best way to speed up the frames a bit? Thanks in advance.

First of all thank you OP for this walkthrough. I have a Vivid and haven't been able to get bootsounds to work. With a little guidance from post 2, we have bootsound!
Xarmox - In all the animations I've ever made, there should be a desc.txt in your animation's .zip, along with the image folders. In this .txt file, the first line will display "width height framespersecond". You should be able to speed it up/slow it down by editing the fps
Also to OP and anyone else who might be interested - if you leave off the audiostart="folder", it will just start the sound at the beginning of the animation, rather than looking for a specific folder name. This would allow other animations that don't use the same folder structure to utilize the sound. However if you only want your sound to start at a specific roll of images, this is a great addition!

thank you for the advice, the problem I'm having is that anytime i change the FPS in the desc.txt or in the boot animation program, my boot animation doesn't play on my phone when i boot up, it just shows the splash screen until the phone boots up. Its as if the ReZound won't play any boot animation unless its at 15 FPS.
I tried deleting every other image in the VZW folder and renamed them (I think this would give the appearance of ~30 FPS, when played at 15FPS), which isn't the preferred way, because its gonna make syncing up the sound that much more difficult. Maybe I could figure out a good pattern of frames to delete to give the appearance of 25 FPS.

Don't know if it would matter or not, but are you putting the edited desc.txt back with Store compression (file size and compressed size the same)? I use WinRAR to do this as it allows me to select compression level every time, but have to use 7zip for a lot of the other things I do that don't require Store compression, it seems to just know
Edit: Keep in mind I'm saying this without ever having played with a bootanimation for a Rezound. I have a buddy with one, if you're still having trouble I'll put one on his and see what I can do next time I see him. Or maybe OP can chime in with some knowledge
