After hearing that our watches weren't gonna get Oreo, I decided to go ahead and root mine. After installing Magisk, everything is working great. I even created myself a custom boot animation. Unfortunately, even though I think I've done everything right, my boot animation only plays part 0.
Video:
Video link if it fails to play in the post.
Here is my desc.txt:
Code:
320 320 30
c 0 0 part0
c 1 0 part1
I've attached the boot animation, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think I have at least a direction on figuring out the boot animation getting stuck and looping ??
I was tweaking my boost animation and it "did it" on me. started looping. the machine is actually booted by sitting another S3 next to it and duplicating key pressed I could figure out where to touch to reboot for example.
this animation worked FINE the only change between working and not working was the FPS in the desc file.
the 10fps is the one that loops
20fps 15fps 12 fps and 8 fps all work fine. no loop issues. JUST the 10fps.
I tried rezipping it thinking that was the issue (bad file) but no, it still gets stuck. ONLY that one (I did not try 9 and 11 fps)
obviously I now use 8fps but maybe someone can use this info to figure out whats going on ?
Here is the 10fps file (to make it work just change the 10 to some other number like 08 or 12 in the txt file)
to get out of the loop pull the battery boot to recovery and wipe cache (that is all you need to wipe)
this will let you boot up ONE TIME so make sure you change the boot animation or you have to do the wipe cache again.

Greetings,
I am running an HTC One with CyanogenMod (Android 4.2). I had attempted to create and load a custom boot animation. I was able to pull from the source zip (/system/media), and confirm that I could reload it. I greated jpg's which were the same pixel count as the Cyanogen Animation (I didn't touch the desc.txt at all) and recompressed it (mac user so zip -0r bootanimation.zip). I pushed it back to the same location, and rebooted the phone. I was greeted with the wonderful message saying my bootloader has been tampered with, and then nothing for the rest of the phones boot until the lock screen.
Reloading the original animation zip still works. I have also tried a couple other tested HTC One boot animations, and none have succeeded. I ran the bootanimation command straight from the bin folder, and nothing happens. It just skips to another line, no message, no animation.
I am from the world of windows originally, and am still getting used to the mac/linux structure of things. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am not sure how to troubleshoot this problem further. All googling on the topic has produced solutions for others, but not myself. I understand this is a new piece of hardware, and it just may not be possible yet.
Thank you!
So, I've been fiddling with my phone (Rooted, of course, before anyone asks), and I decided to change my Boot animation. After making my own gif and using Bhoot to make it into a boot animation, I wasn't very satisfied, as I didn't want it to loop. I tried messing with it and got it to where it should SUPPOSEDLY play the main animation once, and loop a second animation (Which consists of only one frame). However, whenever I start my phone, I just get a black screen, which after some time, takes me to my lock screen.
The desc.txt reads:
480 800 19
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

I would post a link to my file, which would make things so much easier, but this forum won't let me for another 9 posts. Can I just win for once today?
I've been trying for hours now to get this simple animation to work, I swear I have everything right. I've tried different resolutions, numberings, fps, etc but everytime all I get is ether a black screen till boot is complete or an android boot animation.
would anyone care to take a look and tell me whats wrong? Its only 8 frames long, by 2 folders, could that be it?

Just add the . back to the link, I cant post links because I'm under 10 posts but without outside links or a way to attach, the best I can get is info I've already read over and over all over the web.
Edit: I guess I should mention that I am rooted and running Cyanogenmod 11 on an LG Optimus G (E973). Root isnt a problem and Cyanogenmod's images for their boot animation are jpgs as well.
HI all,
Did anyone figure out a way to apply a customer boot animation since we can't simply go an change the bootanimation.zip file and so far all magisk modules i tried simply don't work.
Unless you have a fairly short animation, by the time it thinks of getting moving you've already booted into the home screen. In the past I created a couple of custom boot animations. I stopped using them when I chose to use rooted stock firmware instead of custom ROMs. As a result I haven't searched for a long time for a replacement boot animation: not that I need to given I still have my boot animations stored on a HDD.
it is a short one well kinda, wanted to put the nokia handshake as the bootanimation for fun but couldn't figure out how to actually do it due to android 13 read only limitations and i think the modules i tried didn't work due to the pixel now having a dynamic animation not quite sure, seems like its not worth it anymore
