[BOOTANIMATION] Nexium Boot animation, basis of new rom Updated! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Here is my new boot animation I have created to go along with the rom I am building. Please let me know what you think. This is just a zip to be renamed and placed in bootanimation.zip place. This is a full 720x1280 boot animation.
Updated! I redesigned to make it much more crisp and less cheesy! Thanks for you input! Please let me know if you like the new animation!

Any screenies?
NEVER MIND..... I SEE IT NOW, I'LL TRY IT

Just tried this out and while I and others surely appreciate your effort in creating this, its just doesn't look good on this device, the animation resolution looks really low. It kinda reminds me of the splash screens from old school keygen apps.

Thanks for your input, I have updated the boot animation so please give it another try. I agree after looking at it some more I wasn't able to get the quality I wanted so I abandoned the original design.

Nice
Good luck guys, I will try post something too but I have to enhance my photoshop skills
Because of my lack of photoshop skills here's an idea someone might want to try:
The Android droid actualy looks somewhat like a rounded capital A...
If you draw an XD emoticon on it's face, you have an XD Android
I think that this is a fantastic idea.
Comon peeps
We need some of your help guys.
I hate stock and we need cooler mods from a great community on xda
ill try to do something cool, but boot animation, what format should it be in? GIF? Flash format?
Cool idea!
Which resolution do you want for the boot animation?

The resolution is 512x256 and if possible provide each frame in png format. As the boot animation reads each image separately. The maximum amount of frames are 60 but you can do less than that.
Can't wait to see what you guys have to offer
You can provide a GIF image too, as i'll just rip it but it would be much easier if you provided the images separate instead of merged into a GIF
This is probably a stupid question but do the wallpaper sizes you asked for allow for the multiple-home-screen sliding of Android to work? They're the same size as the devices' screens, and I don't know if that means that it would only be big enough to cover one home screen without being stretched, or if Android does something differently with regard to setting wallpapers.
Also, the Hero boot animation is 217 frames long, does this matter?
And finally, I guess the animation should be able to loop (?).
Hmm, hard to do anything on only 60 frames. But here's a first draft at a boot animation. Any suggestions for improvements are most welcome.
I'll probably add another animation tomorrow when I have had time to get some better ideas.
At what fps does the animation play back by the way?
And would it be hard to replace the current bootanimation with a custom one? It would be nice to test the animation before submitting it to you.
That one looks great! If I had to be critical I'd say you could make the text colour more distinct from that of the background, but I love the Android
It's much better than anything I would have done... Do you have professional experience in graphics/rendering?
@lugiber: that's funny Good job
It's too bad I don't have skills in this area because I have a great idea. Something like an Android(pretty much pac-man) eating a windows mobile sign and leaving behind the xd-android sign behind.
Thanks for the positive reponses guys! I'll make "xdandroid" stick out more and update the animation.
Hehe, i like the idea about the android eating windows. I'll see what i can do.
I had some ideas in that direction but I wasn't shure if people would respond well to "windows bashing".
Here's an XDAndroid wallpaper idea I made - I know that it's pretty basic but I wouldn't mind some feedback

Nice one! How about making the background black? It's not filling the whole screen, (since that's how Android does it) So I think whatever's on the outside of the animation is black.

Nice! If you don't mind me asking, how exactly do you do that sort of thing? The only way I can think of is by lightening each frame separately, which would be both time consuming and probably quite messy.

haha looks like you both interpreted the requirements wrong or i wrote them wrong :S
I'd like it to be 512 width and 256 in height.
But other than that it looks good. If possible add some android in there doing something humourous ( not necessary but would be greatly appreciated )

[Boot Animation] Particular Android (with bonus wallpaper)

I've made a new boot animation, and, unlike my last one, it was done in After Effects, so sizing it up for other Android devices shouldn't be too hard. It was inspired by Cyanogen's new boot animation, but I wanted something mod-agnostic. For laffos I've also included a new wallpaper. Bonus points if anyone gets the reference. Sorry to anyone that replied to my last thread, I've been ridiculously busy with school. Hopefully the promise of Evo boot screens is enough to make up for it.
Quick question, for those of you with Evos that may be interested: do you have enough space in /system for a larger boot anim? Getting this one to fit was a bear, but I have many more frames that make it look a lot smoother if there's space to include them.
Anyway, cheers, and I hope you enjoy.

Looks great. Thanks.
please post the complete boot animation curious to see it and if it can play on my phone.
where do i put the file.? on android folder.?
please upload the full one to.
nice...i really like it
how do you install it?
do you install through terminal emulator?
Nice thanks alot
thnx for the boot animation

[REQ] Thundercats Splash_img + bootanimation?

Take the image you want, make sure it's 480 X 800, save it in png format, and follow this page.
I see how to do that... but I was asking for someone with experience doing it to assist. Plus, there's no information on creating bootanimation.zip in that thread. I appreciate you re-directing me to another thread, however, I simply was wondering if anyone had this already ready?
If you can make sound work with it and have it say "THUNDERCATS HOOO!!", I am so flashing it.
I cant make a bootanim, but there are a couple splashes in the second post here: http://www.myserverisdead.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=224
BOOM! There it is! Sweet. That's half of the request filled. I'll be trying to work on making my own boot animation from one of these. I want to make the "eye of thundera" zoom in, and then back out so u see the sword... and it flashing and growing like in the tv show... or something like that! If I get all of the right sized graphics, i'll try and modify em and string em together and compile em. If I get it done... I'll post. If anyone else has some cool THUNDERCATS either 480x800 images, png, or even (crossing my fingers) boot animations... PLEASE share with us!!!
doing a bootanim isnt hard... just VERY VERY VERY time consuming. I have tried in the past and just get frustrated lol.

Yah, I had forseen this much and have been reluctant to try because of this. Hence the post asking if anyone else had bled from their fingertips so I could enjoy the cool boot ani. Plus, I'm not a great artist, and if I wanted patience... I would've been a doctor. Keep it real, e-world!
It's since been discontinued, but I made a Thundercats bootanimation for the G2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1247732&highlight=thundercats

[BOOTANIMATION] Sega Style bootanimation.zip

This is just a bootanimation I made for myself, but then I thought others might like it. Also thought it was about time I make my first post
I tried to replicate the boot screen at the start of Sonic the Hedgehog. I've attached the bootanimation.zip and the PSD in case you want to make your own changes to it, as it is far from perfect.
Looks good for a first try. Too bad Samsung and Google haven't seen fit to let us know about enabling boot sounds, because this is crying out for someone saying "ANDROID" in the same style as they did on the Genesis boot.

Sorry for the thread from the dead, but I've got some pertinent information...
I'm running BAMF, and it supports boot sounds. I've only come across one person even attempting to take advantage of this, however. If you read forward in that thread, you can see that I flashed his Xbox boot animation CWM script and verified that it did indeed have sound. The technology is out there, now we just have to take hold and put it to good use...

L Bootanimation(FULL)

OK. So got the right one to work.
Download the .zip. Go to system/media and rename original bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip. Copy/paste the one you downloaded to system/media, change permissions to RW-R-R. Reboot and enjoy.
Preview image attached
Can you by chance give us a preview of the boot animation or if it is a stock animation let us know?
Missed what was posted.
I tried this animation a while ago myself.
I thought it was kind of cool.
But due to it being made for android wear devices, I didn't care for how large the images appear.(resolution)
(ie: sun dial looking thing representing a watch/clock/time)
Definitely an alternative some folks may enjoy though, so thanks for sharing. :good:

It is large. I tried it after changing desc.txt to 1080*[email protected] instead of 1080*[email protected](is now) but just a soft glow black screen.

Yeah, I considered scaling them at one point by dropping them onto a larger canvas, but never did.
If there's interest in that, I could do it if I get some "bored" time. haha

LMFAO. You are definitely busy right now. I think there is always interest but I feel for some things they just need to be announced to the public by the right backers.
