Root [BOOT ANIMATION] [MOD] COA - Call of Android

[SimsDelt]

I love the old look of this boot animation, but hated that it wouldn't stay on the screen till the phone fully booted (left you with a blank black screen for a few seconds after the animation). So I edited the desc.txt file and organized the folders to fix that. Now the animation will run fully and then "hang" on the final image till the boot is done. Credits to Crackanug @ XDA for the boot animation, I just edited the files for this purpose. Thank to bouchigo for the template for the flashable.zip.

Can you put it in a zip so we could install through cw

 

[Tempusfugit]

Nice, works on my EVO, putting it in system/customize/resource (you have to mount system as writable)

 

[jacko1]

I understand but for most people including myself its easier to put in a zip file

I don't understand, the link is a zip file... bootanimation.zip

You just download it and move it to a folder... I don't think it can get any easier.

I'm not comfortable doing that me and root explorer never got along

I'll see what i can do with the installable cw file. Shouldn't be too hard. Just gotta make it up.

Should be simple to do, you can take this one I made if you want, just replace the bootanimation.zip that you want to use:


blue_particles.zip

Any ideas as to why this wouldn't be working? I put it in data/local but when I reboot, I get the aosp boot ani.

Edit: got it. Dolphin renamed the file by adding a -1 at the end and I didn't think to change it. Thanks for the sweet boot ani.

 

[SimsDelt]

Can someone try out this CW for me? I already have this loaded for the boot ani on my phone so i wouldn't know if it worked or not. here's the file. Flash in CW as normal.

Don't see a reason to do a nandroid for this flash. Since if it doesn't work right all that will happen is you will get a black screen during boot.

Thanks, I used one I had already for a theme I installed. And just added a data/local and removed the other files.

Didn't work

 

[SimsDelt]

Try this one... I edited it again. I used bouchigo's zip file and replaced his boot ani in there with mine. If it doesn't work again... mount system and data before installing.

You have to do more than that, you have to change the script to mount user data and unmount after install.

 

[SimsDelt]

Urs already does that doesn't it. So all I had to so was substitute the bootani out.

Yeah mine does that.....substituting the bootani will work just fine.

Its definitely sweet. I just put it on my friends r2d2 also. I wondered why more people didn't do boot ani mods. I assumed they were pretty tough or time consuming. Then today I stumble across this 1 and a few others at droid forums. I think I'm going to try to get into developing once I get my computer built. I'm sure I'll be on here constantly bugging all of you that already know what you're doing.

 

[SimsDelt]

Boot animations are just time consuming. You have to make each frame. Or have to decompile some video you want to us and make it fit right on the screen and then put it all in the right format for people to use. I made a varient of the red rage a while back that had over 300 images to it. Took me 4 hours to just edit the 100+ frames I was choosing to edit. Good luck though. Its all worth it whn the finished product comes out how u wanted it.
