Replacement Nexus Boot Animation


Recommended Posts

Here is a boot animation I knocked together which I thought I would share.

It needs to be installed using adb (if someone wants to sign it and upload as an update.zip then feel free).

To install via adb;

Connect your phone to your PC via USB and enable USB debugging.

Copy bootanimation.zip to the tools folder of your Android SDK installation.

Open a command prompt and cd to the same folder then type the following commands.

adb remount

adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

adb reboot
Device will then reboot and animation will (should :( ) play after X splash screen. You can remove the animation with;
adb remount

adb shell rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip

adb reboot

Part0 - Plays once;

Part1 - Plays once slowly then plays fast (strobes) until boot complete;

Can also install through phone using root explorer and copying over old zip. Copy old zip and paste old on elsewhere to backup.

it'd be nice to have a pic or link to a video of what it is before downloading it.

There is a pic on the first post which sort of gives you an idea - I will do a GIF or an APNG when I get a few minutes.

You could always download the zip and have a look at the animation frames - only take you 2 seconds.

Hey guys i have a question:

I tried to make my own bootanimation with this one as basis. I create two folders, part0 and part 1. I put one .png file in the part0 folder and 15 in part1.

Together with the desc.txt file i create a zip file and name it bootanimation.

Nothing works. After the big X i only get a black screen and after some time i have to unlock my sim card.

So i went a step back and tried to make some small changes on the bootanimation from above. I editet some of the .png files and tried it again. And now i have the original bootanimation WITHOUT my changes.

But why?????

I editet files 13,14,15,19,22,23 and 27 in folder part1.

Perhaps some of you could say me what i have done wrong.

Thanks much.

P.S. Sorry for my bad english^^

P.P.S Do i get an answer after removing my bootanimation via adb? Somthing like "Done" or "complete"??

When you zip it you need to change the compression method to 'store' otherwise it won't work. I imagine that is where you went wrong.
