An windows .net application that writes/reads to and from:
/system/media/
/system/customize/resource/
/data/local/
To change the boot screen. Very simple and easy to use.

I am very new to the android hacking community so please forgive my ignorance. But is this a program that allows you to create a boot animation for your device?

Assuming you've rooted your device then yes.
Works lang a charm I finally modified my bootanimation using this. One thing though I made a mistake on the command prior making it work.
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/custom/resource (should be customize) How can I remove that. Btw Thanks a lot 2 thumbs up to you.
How to use (I'm stupid so i need instructions) Please
Ill change that now :L
Depending on your phone it has different locations for the bootanimation.
If you tick all the boxes then hit backup open each file until you recognized one as the one you see at the boot screen then simply overwrite that with a custom one. Keeping a backup of course incase it doesnt work properly.
very nice idea! good job!

It doesn't let you create one, but it can set one recover and backup current ones etc.
please explain more
I don't understand at all how to use it ...... :'(

I created a clean looking HTC animated splash based on the HTC "YOU" commercials. It's only about 4 seconds long to avoid a long startup sequence. Just unzip and use a file namager like Total Commander to copy the files into your /windows/ folder.
If someone would volunteer to make this a cab, I'd appreciate it.
Update: Sept 1st, 2010 - Installable CAB version for those who don't want to have to copy the files to their windows folder. (thanks Brent372). Look a few posts down for the link.

Cab installed to device, no go.
Stock ROM/ radio...themes all custom cozy.
In which folder do u put the zip file in windows???
On Acer Neotouch S200 with a stock ROM is NOT working....
I've installed a cab on a main mamory, but nothing!
alright i found this app which changes icons but it also contains a "bonus feature"
that allows you to change either the animated boot screen,and or microsoft boot screen just copy your "gifs",and "pngs" to your sd card find them with the app
Save,close,then use the "reset device" option and enjoy.
(the preview option is broken)
Using this now on my Sprint Touch Pro 2. If you have Sprint, you have to copy over the "SPCS_480x800.gif" file in the Windows folder.
Thanks for the great work!
P.S. Where's the thanks button on your post? Would like to have used it...
Went ahead and made my own animation with sound and all. For more info on how to change and edit all this go to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732311

Install instructions (must be rooted):
Place contents of shutdown.zip in directory: /system/media/video/shutdown
Place contents of shutdown_128.zip in directory: /system/media/audio/ui
easiest way to do it is through root explorer. Try this animation out and let me know what you think, I'm also working on a few more
wrong section.. this belongs in the Theme & Apps forum but this looks pretty good.

thanks, I did a serach for shutdown animation and all the posts were on general so I put it here
Hey I like it. Better than that pink flying around the screen crap.
Didn't work for me. Contents where they belong but the phone just shuts down normally, no new sound or animation
Didn't work for me either...
It looks like it should, but like the previous post, it just shuts down with no animation and no sound.
how are you guys getting the files in the directory?
More detailed explanation please
Hello,
I would like to put this shutdown on my vibrant. I am running Bionix 1.3.1.
I have changed boot animations many times but never shutdown animations.
Can someone give more detailed instructions please? Do I replace these entire folders with the new folders? These are zip files so should I flash through recovery?
Confused at the moment.
Or, does anyone have any great shutdown animations for Bionixx 1.3.1?
Thanks for your help.
You will also need a kerel that supports bootanimations and shutdown ones too. I found that out just recently myself as I was throwing some metroid icons and animations onto my phone.
Kernel?
I know that I can change my bootanimation, never tried to change the shutdown one.
Follow the op's instructions ...if you copy the folder then you will need to make it lower case.....also if running a custom kernel you wont get sound
Got it working I much prefer it over original bionix 1.3.1 shutdown

Boot animation ICONIA A500
install with:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
the default is well default for all android devices. people will need to make some bootanimations to flash.
Just do this: adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/bootanimation.zip and setup a nice bootanim
i figured it out... just after i posted...got shnny bootanim now
good bootanimation here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991086
just have to remove the motorola logo...
I'm after a nice boot animation as well, currently I'm using the radio active Xoom boot animation. Unfortunately it displays Xoom. Although I'll have a look at photochopping it out and adding Iconia or something in there.
remade the retro bootanimation for our lovely a500
hope you guys like it
UPDATED first post
not bad man good job.
is there a tut i can read that explains the process of making a new boot screen/animation? does it require root? That link to the xoom version has a post that says it doesnt.
doesnt require root
The Animation is wrong... The Acer had 1024M DDR3 Ram
good to know. any chance of getting a fad writeup?
did anyone have the honeycpmb one??
that is many honeycomb on the screen
So whats the file structure for this? /data ? there's no /local folder in that and it wont let me make one... Sorry, noob.
EDIT***
Okay looks like I need adb (reading that xoom thread and others with the same question as mine) - ill figure it out.
EDIT 2***
Got it working Very cool Thor
What does adb mean?
Ha haah...awesome
Is it possible to save the stock boot ?
I don't get it - you people actually turn your device off? ;-)
I never see the boot animation because well... I never power my tablet off. Why wait so long for it to boot when I'm going to use it multiple times during a day anyway?
good work
what programs you have created the
would like to create one yourself
Crazy - A500 use DDR3 RAM
Can anyone modify this one to fit the Acer A500 specs?

Man thats great thanx!

Can't believe I haven't thanked you yet. I've been using this for about a month now, and one thing everyone should know, is this tool has an extra advantage. Contrary to the m10 Editor UI Application, this script uses straight command line which makes all of your sense 3.0 m10 images decode with the same file name every time, where as the UI will give you random file names every time. And this is way simpler
Amresh, This was an ingenious idea and I can't thank you enough!

i tried to modify the htc love apk. m10 files, but the thing is when i separate the dat and png files the folders are empty...plz help if u can..
sweet, thanks, will give it a shot
Stock is too bright and shows too much color banding
Adjusted the gamma on the images. Made darker and colors little more vibrant
Install:
Flash threw CWR
Alternate install methods [root required]
Use the bootanimation.zip below
Place in data/local folder then reboot
no need to set permissions leave as is
this will bypass default animation and when you want to revert back simply delete from local folder and will default back to stock
one thank to me for resize
a lot of thanks to demo23019 for this great work(for the nexus s device)

I felt the same way. Thank you very much, its perfect.
Yes its good and its work thanks
For those of you on MIUI like me, I'll provide the steps to install it.
1. Download the boot-file.zip containing the "bootanimation" file.
2. Extract the file and place it in system/bin, replacing the old boot animation file (make sure there is no extension at the end, just bootanimation)
3. Give it the permissions using Root Explorer or equivalent: rwx-rx-rx (rwxrxrx)
4. Download ics_tweaked.mtz and place it in sdcard/MIUI/themes
5. Reboot, and them go Settings>Themes>Customize>Boot Animation> The new animation should be there.
6. Select it, Reboot, and Enjoy!
NOTE. If it isn't there, look at all the boot animations that are there, if there is one with no preview, select that one. That should be one containing the new animation.
*DISCLAIMER* This method worked for me and results may vary.
Works flawlessly, thanks.
Great boot animation and very easy to install.
