Custom Bootanimation not working - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently tried out boot animation editing on my ufeel prime. when i download pre made bootanimation.zip files or from other phones they work fine. I tried making my own but it just gets stuck on the splash screen and the phone goes on after a longer time than normal.
By the way i can't seem to find out how to add attachments.
haha i wanted to post a drive link but apparently i cant
here is desc.txt
1080 1920 30
p 1 0 part0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
part0 folder only contains an image wich is named 00000.png

Most common mistake when bootanimation zip don't work is that the zip is made with compression instead of "store" option.
It doesn't work with compressed zip.

[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!

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.

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.

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.

Porting from a Made Bootanimation
Hi i am going to show you all an easy method of bootanimation porting to our G3 and from our G3
If you are planning to port from G3 , remember to substitute every " 240 x 400" with your phone's dimensions
If you want to make a bootanimation I recommend you to follow this GUIDE
once you have the bootanimation you want to port,:-
1)extract the bootanimation.zip to a desired folder
2)you should get 2 folders- named " partx " (x can be any number) and a " desc.txt"
3) open the first of the two parts(the one whose x value is smaller)
4)If the bootanimation is a good one, you shall find quite a lot of images in there.Note down the image size and extension.
5)download this software from HERE (*)
6) Install the above software on your PC
7) once installed, open it
8) On the top left corner you shall see " ADD SOURCE FILES"
9)Click it. then choose the files in the first part folder.Now select all the files by clicking the tick just below ADD SOURCE FILES.
10)Now on the bottom roght, in CONVERT OPTIONS, choose "general".(you may skip this step if the part images are in 240 x 400 size)
---For destination, check SOURCE FOLDER.
---For file exists, choose REPLACE
---For format, choose " Same as original "
---Then choose RESIZE option in convert settings.
---Check resize
---check "input" and "stretch"
---in width, type 240
---in height, type 400
---Filter is LINEAR
11)Now click convert. Once the conversion is done , do recheck in the part folders if the images are in .png and 240 x 400
12)Repeat step 10 and 11 for the second part folder.Now rename the two part folders as " part0" and "part1"(part0 corresponds the original part which had a lesser value of x)
13) once done, open the desc.txt . Delete everything
14)now type "240 400 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1 "
NOTE:The p on the 2nd and 3rd line should start exactly below the 240 of the first. The 1 and 0 in 2nd line should be exactly below the 0 and 4 of the first AND 0 and 0 of the 3rd line shall be exactly below the 1 and 0 of the second line. Dont leave any space in the beginning.
15)save the desc.txt
16) Download the latest version of bootanimation factory from here
17)install it and open it
18)Select "create new bootanimation"
19)then select "choose folder". Select the folder which has your modified 2 part folders in it.
20)If Everything is fine,you should get a green tick and proceed on the left . You will see " 240. 400. 30 (this is your desc.txt config)
21)Select add loop.
---in choose folder select "part0"
---number of loops shall be 1 loop delay shall be 0.Click ADD
22)Again select add loop
---this time choose "part1"
--- number of loops is 0 and loop delay is also 0.Click ADD
23)now you can choose a custom boot sound if You want to( .mp3 file)
24)select preview
25)this is your bootanimation.If you find it too fast, exit the preview select the first line on the left (the one with 240. 400. 30) and press EDIT. Now you can change the value of the "30" (lesser the value, the slower it is)
26)now save the bootanimation as " bootanimation.zip"
27)Download THIS
28)create a new folder on the desktop and extract the above there
29)open it and you should see 2 folders- META-inf and system.Open system then open media.You should see a bootanimation.zip there.Replace it with yours.
30)now go back to the folder which had system and META-inf as sub folders. Select META-inf and system, then right-click choose Winrar/7-zip and click ADD TO ARCHIVE. Choose " .zip " and rename it to whatever you want.
31)Done. This has created your bootanimation as an update.zip, ready to be flashed via cwm
*-----if this software doesnt work, you will need to download a software which resizes images and converts them
If anyone requires -- AUDIO CONVERTER
If you have photoshop you can also use This too.:good:

Making a Bootanimation from a Video
To make a bootanimation from a video , make sure you have the video in the best quality available.

2) Download the latest version of videoTojpg converter from here
3)install the above software and launch it
4)Click on add files and choose the video you want
5)Now when you come to the extract option below , if your video is approx 30-50 Sec choose EVERY FRAME else if it is not you can either choose EXTRACT EVERY 10 FRMAES OR EXTRACT 200 FRAMES OR EXTRACT 500 FRAMES
6)Now you will get the jpg files (See the destination folder to find out where they are located)
7)now again create a folder somewhere. Create part0 and part1 as sub folders in it. Also make a desc.txt with same text as mentioned in the above post
8)next copy all the files in part0
9)If you want, you can add jpg in part1 folder. These jpg will be the ones that will keep looping while your phone boots. If there is going be to be nothing in part1, delete the folder and in desc.txt delete the last line.
10) Perform step 10 and 11 from above tut.
11) After this , perform all steps in above tutorial starting from step 16

so does that mean we just leave the original bootanimation .qmg files alone?
and i found a bootanimation to use for now. i had uses liked rom toolbox and it didnt work. but the zip has 2 part0 and part 1 folders and the desc file and i had tried just manually putting the file where they go but that didnt work.

the .qmg files are for samsung stock bootanimation
u HAVE to delete it before performing any boot animation change
but i am not too sure if u flash the update.zip, it will delete .qmg files and then copy your bootanimation
It is best to modify bootanimations in custom roms, where bootanimation exists in /system/media/bootanimation.zip

[Boot Animation] Google Boot Animation With Sound for Moto G 2014

Hey Folks,
Lately, I've been searching for a boot animation which has sound in it and produces sound during boot. Recently my friend gave me one boot animation which has sound in it, I have tested this animation on my MOTO G 2014 (TITAN) and it does produce sound during boot.
Tested this animation on AOSP Extended 3.0 & 3.1 ROMs & Resurrection Remix 5.8.1 for TITAN and in both the ROMS it worked fine
Here is what I found when I manually opened "bootanimation.zip" file with WinRAR, it contains part0, part1, part2 directories and a file named desc.txt which normally bootanimations have, but what I found new was that each part folder contains trim.txt which later I found that it contains data for coordinates of image to be placed on the screen while running boot animation.
The another thing which I found in the part2 folder was an audio file named "audio.wav". This file contained the audio which gets produced when the part2 of boot animation gets executed. Later I manually converted some random song to .wav and renamed it to "audio.wav" and put that file in part1 instead of part2, when I installed the boot animation, it worked
So in order to have sound on boot animation read How to do this below
HOW TO DO THIS:
1. You need a working boot animation which has frames and folders like "part0, part1, part2" and a desc.txt file. (This may also work on some STOCK ROMS, but I'm not sure).
2. Convert your favorite audio into WAVE (.wav) format and rename it to "audio.wav"
3. Put your "audio.wav" into any of the part folders i.e. in part0 or in part1, it doesn't matter because when boot animation runs that part it will produce sound
4. Compress the part0,part1,part2 & desc.txt to a zip file with no compression i.e. 0 compression and name it "bootanimation.zip"
5. Copy your modified "bootanimation.zip" to /system/media (Make sure to backup your original one)
6. Change file permissions to ( rw- r-- r--) and reboot your phone.
Tadaaa Now You'll Have a Bootanimation With SOUND.
I don't know the duration or length of audio to put inside boot animation, let me know if you find this, till then enjoy boot animation with sound
I've attached a link of a bootanimation. This one is same as AOSP Extended ROM's BootAnimation but with sound :laugh:

Umm Ok.. Please make sure that the audio file is in .WAV format, no other file format works. Secondly make sure to compress zip file using PC, files compressed in android create problems. I've used WINRAR to make zip files and that works for me fine and make sure to have ZERO compression, if using winrar, I've attached screenshots.
If none of the above works, then compress the file using Boot Animation Factory you can download it and also learn how to use it from HERE

Alright bro, here you go, THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, and this is compiled for XT1068 whose resolution is 720x1280, to use this, extract the zip file, reboot your phone into bootloader mode and using fastboot flash the file, use the command:
