Hello everyone.
I have a few questions and a request for someone who is up for creating an animated lock screen apk for android.
Is it possible to create a lock screen with an animation from attack on titan? (it's bassicaly a gate of a wall being blasted during unlocking of the screen - I will provide the animation from an avi file and covert it to a required resolution as well as format.)
Is it possible to create a universal apk for more than a single smartphone model?
Can it be done so that the animation is active when the phone is awake and then another animation proceeds during unlocking?
If anyone feels like creating such lock screen please feel free to engage in this thread.
Also, if you have any tips on how could I do it myself, any advice would also be appreciated

Czesc haha well, basically I would recommend getting into programming for this, Do research on a programming language like Java if you are going to be doing apps for Android, and Objective-C for Iphone, to develop I reccomend using Android SDK, its a Software Development Kit that helps test and build for specifically android. Usually the only thing that holds back an app from being universal on android is the OS requirements (2.3, 4.0.4, kit-kat, jelly bean, etc etc.) So that shouldnt be much of an issue. What it sounds like is you want to make almost like a custom live wallpaper for a lock screen, I would do research on how to do that, or research on how to modify the lock-screen. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the pointers.
I'm back on it, so I will do some research

First of all, I know this information has got to be here somewhere within the confines of XDA-Developers, however, I am at a loss. Therefore, I pre-apologize if this is redundant.
One of the first roms that I tried for my TG01 had an animated splash screen with sound! I would really like to put an animation both on the boot and the normal splash screen before windows mobile starts. Would someone be able to point me in the correct direction?
Thank you very much my friends.

Contact Nokser, his ROMs only have animated boot up...
Just search for "animated splash wvga", or look HERE to start with.
If you use a rom with an animated spash just copy over the existing animation with a new one.
If not use Advanced Config to choose the file location.
Hope thats what you were looking for
I think the TG01 is differnet.
I have tried everything like that, I absolutely can not get the animated splash screen to work. Hmm... Nokser must have done his homework cuz I think that is a tough thing to get working on the TG01.
I will message him, see if I can find the secret!

Hello everyone,
Since I have 1 posts including this one on the XDA forum and couldn't post in the dev section, I guess it'll have to go here. I'd like to make a simple lock screen for my Galaxy S2 (Android 2.3).
It would be similar to the default pattern lock but I don't want a combination of dots. Instead, I want it to unlock at a single tap at a position on the screen, or maybe two correct taps.
Since the default pattern lock requires at least 4 dot connections, I couldn't use it. I also want it to show the background with no widgets, only maybe the notification bar.
Now I downloaded the Android SDK, but I have no experience with it. I have past C++ experience and I'm willing to learn, but I would like some directions and perhaps code snippets to get me started.
Inb4 NOT SECURE LOL: It's what I want to have.
tl;dr Mewants to make single or double tap lock screen with no widgets showing. Halp?
Try AppInventor ...It is a good way to learn to make apps for Android without really knowing the programming...all you need to know is hoe you you want your app to work...and since you have previous experience with C/C++..am sure the loops such as if/if-else etc in the pictorial manner won't confuse you..Good luck..Its a good Idea you have there..dunno if it can be implemented for sure though!
There are many AOSP Lockscreens available in the dev section anyway...check them out till then
Hello everyone,
I will appreciate and will be very thankful for your thoughts concerning the following-
I am an animator with zero android programing knowledge.
I was thinking about creating and selling (on the android market) unique animations that are meant to be customized as a lockscreen.
As I do not really familiar with the programing world, I was wondering if there is a way/place/platform where I will be able to provide such animations so people will be able to buy and customize them within an already built app that enables such customization option( and even better, for other options as well, like- live wallpapers, splash animations, boot animations etc')
While looking on the web, I came across with people who sell lockscreen themes that are built upon "known" apps that enable lockscreen customization, but as I am new to this world I do not know how to do such thing as well as how to sell such app/themes.
As I only create animations(I export them as video files and able to convert them to any format necessary), I will be very happy to know if there is a simple solution to the above without the need to deal with programing but to still be able to somehow offer my work on the android market (or in other ways)
Thank you, in advanced, for any advice that might solve that challenge.
Kind regards,
I.
Hi Everyone
I am looking at creating a custom lock screen but during my pre development research i have found some things that i wanted to get clarified by someone wiser than my self
I have seen mention that to create a custom lock screen you need to create a custom launcher that implements lock screen functionality. Is this correct? Presumably this would require setting the devices default lock mecanisum to off so that the launcher could take care of it.
Is it possible to create a replacement for just the lock screen?
Also, can anyone point me in the right direction for creating a root lock screen? Would this just be creating an app the provides the correct functionality (ie responds to the correct system calls) and using root permissions to replace the original lock screen with this app.
Thanks for any help you can provide

I want to design an animation for my app. Users click "boost now" icon and it boosts his phone while displaying a fancy animation.
Problem is I have no clue how to do these animations. I'd like your input on how to do it, I'm familiar with android but haven't done any fancy graphics.
Here's two boosting functions I'd like to try and learn from:
youtu.be/yy3fegnuKGI
youtu.be/PAKjKvRmE_c
Please guide me to reasources/tutorials on the subject. I apologize if my question is not specific, I'm just clueless.
There is a guide at /showthread.php?t=1852621 .
To put it simple: A boot animation is just a bunch of png files, which are displayed at a certain rate.
So no fancy animations or gifs, I hope you are not too sad about it .
