I'm sure everyone notices that the boot animation lags for the first few seconds before it smooths out. This creates some really choppy and ugly boot animations, especially if you use ones that are cooler looking than the stock X.
Does anyone know if it's possible to smooth out the boot animations, so it looks as good as it's supposed to?
No. Boot animation isn't given priority over boot process, and the lag is CPU busy with system boot.
You can use small resolution / low frame rate boot animations, they'll appear smoother.

Has anyone thought about trying to make another animation when you go into landscape mode? Maybe something a little smoother? I'm not sure if it could be done but with UltimateLaunch and other cube programs out there, I thought it would be an improvement over the default.
I'm not sure what you're talking about, but of the box, our devices have NO rotate screen animation at all... just a lag as it tries to redraw the screen at a 90 degree angle.
If the device were fast enough, it would be instantaneous. There is NO "animation" there to smooth out.
Unless you added a third party app which animates (which would just further slow the process down), there isn't much you can do but load a firmware that makes the screen respond as fast as possible (if you haven't already).
do some of the custom roms increase the speed of the screen redrawing itself?
Some custom roms are faster than others, but almost all of them are faster than the stock rom with screen redraws.
Hi everyone, was watching some youtube videos about launcher 7 and found this one
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNDOeMJN-u0&feature=player_embedded
Im looking to get the transition animation effect this guy has when he goes back to the home screen, I donated to get the full version but still dont seem to get the option to get that.
also does anyone know how to get the animated contacts tile ?
thanks a lot !!
As far as I know, it's the only transition animation of Launcher7. What you can do in the settings is to lower the speed of the animation. I guess the SGS2 is just too fast for it

no , no , its totally different. Even on my launcher seven when changing from app list to home screen it wont have any animation, on this video he has animation when going into the app list and back.
Pretty sure its a different animation
Hey guys,
What's the difference between Window Animation scale and Transition animation scale? I set the window animation scale to 5 to see what's the difference but I cannot really tell?
Window is how fast the popups for things like as a example notification choosing, transition is going from menu to menu(with animations turned on)
1x is normal speed, 0.5 is twice as fast and 10 is 10 times as slow

Played with window animation and it seems that its not used as much as the transition animation.

When setting the value lower (number wise) the animations are done faster, such as windows coming in and out of view etc (doesn't effect scrolling) I think home scrolling is effected though
When setting the value higher (number wise) the animations are presented alot slower, I set the value to 5 that you were using, from the Default (1), and all the animations were HELL! slow haha! Painful to use, felt boggy
Transition Animation numbers effect when windows come in and out of view such as opening settings, applications etc
The window animation is the windows "inside windows" that come in and out of view, such as if you set window animation to 10, and then go to the home page and press your settings button so it displays "Add, Wallpapers, Search, Widgets" etc, it opens hell slow
As well as if the value of Window Animation Scale is 10, when you get out of everything and go back into it to change it to 1 (Default) again, the window that opens that shows x.5 | x1 | x1.5 | 2 | 2.5 etc opens heaps slowly!
That's what the difference is
Show transition animation
Hi all,
How can i enable back the animations?
I played a little with all the options (x1, x0.5, x10 etc) just to see the differences. Then I selected the first option ("none"/"off") for Windows animation scale and Transition animation scale and then these 2 options became inactive. I cannot enable them back. I have an HTC One V.
Please advice.

me too, using htc one v, i can't turn it back on though have reset it to factory default both from the power button and volume down while booting, or from the storage factory data reset setting.
i contacted HTC support but they simulated my problems and still be able to turn the windows animation scale and transition scale back on after being switched off.
I'm running civato's cm10 and my transition animations are very laggy and at times the screen just flickers whilst the animation should be happening. I first had this problem when I tried out Thor's Cornerstone ICS ROM ages ago, which I then moved on to his non-Cornerstone version because I didn't like it. Those problems persisted after removing Cornerstone however. I only just recently installed the ICS bootloader, did a full wipe/factory reset and installed cm10 in the hope that it'd be fixed but it seems that my animations are still very laggy. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?
The flickering occurs mainly when using the app switcher, whilst opening and closing apps seems to cause a stuttering animation and opening the notification panel is very slow.
Edit: It seems ticking 'disable hw overlays' and changing the window, transition and animation scale to 0.5x has hid the lag a bit. Disabling HW overlays makes the big difference but it still stutters a fair bit when animations are set to 1x. The flickering does stop. Wouldn't expect this of a JB ROM though, so I still think something is wrong.
Edit 2: Did a full format, installed civato's ICS rom and everything works fantastic now.
I'm trying to make a boot animation for my Nexus 10. It has total of 209 frames, 27 of which are looping. I have a problem where when I put the boot animation together using Boot Animation Factory, the program locks up for a minute, and then spits out a 1.24GB bootanimation.zip. The images are the size of the Nexus 10's (massive) resolution, 2560x1600. I tried making the images smaller, like 1920x1080 or even 1280x720, and they are massively smaller, but then they leave about 1-1.5 inches of black space around the animation, and it is not fullscreen, thus looking awful, but the 1.24GB boot animation cannot fit in the system partition. What do I do?
Nevermind I figured it out. The resolution was set incorrectly by Boot Animation Factory. It was set to 2560x1440, instead of 2560x1600. Could someone delete this thread?
