Hi Everybody
Just wanted to share my boot animation. It's the autobot and decepticon logo from the movie transforming back and forth. Enjoy!
Edit: added the gif it's based on
looks very cool! thx for this one!
No problem, I might tweak it a little so that the emblems stay for a shorter amount of time.
Excuse my ignorance, but how do we install this? Simply flash via Clockwork?
It can be installed to a location that I can't remember via ABD for a permanent install or you can use Root Manager or Super Manager with R/W access to the root and drop the zip in /data/local. The second way will revert back to a different boot animation if you flash a new ROM.
Nice work goochj. Haven't seen you in a while. Def gonna try
This out. Hope your well. Esk0
Thanks esk02k! Yeah haven't been around much, just poke in once in a while. Been planning a wedding

I am new to rooting the X. And I tried Liberty, it is a great rom but I miss some of the stock features. I made a backup of stock using clockwork and when I tried to use the backup, Liberty is still showing up when the phone fiirst reboots. How do I completely get rid of the rom and get back to just being rooted without a custom rom? Thank you for your help
So only the liberty boot logo is showing up? If so in the liberty toolbox i think you can change it to the stock moto one.
no, i mean after i used my stock backup the liberty logo is showing up when the stock rom boots up

You say "no" but basically restate what he said... lol I'm a little confused what the problem is now... You seem to be describing that the boot animation is that of Liberty, it which case you could just push bootanimation.zip of a stock ROM to your phone, afaik.
i apologize, yes he was correct i misread. where can i find the bootanimation that u are talking about, and how exactly do i do that? thanks and sorry about the confusion

Here is a link to how to flash a bootanimation. I realize this isn't what you are looking for (being that it is R2D2) but it provides some nice instructions! You'll have to do a bit of searching, I'll look around a bit for you too. I'll be back!
EDIT: Here we are! Tut & all! http://www.droid-life.com/2010/06/24/download-droid-x-boot-animation/
Enjoy! Let me know how it goes.
update: ok i downloaded the bootanimation.zip tried installing through terminal emulator. seemed to work, but Liberty still shows up and then the normal Droid X boot up sequence happens. sorry but my ocd is kicking in and i gotta fix this. Thanks again
download liberty toolbox from the market and go to liberty mods/boot logos/stock moto logo. download and flash that and you'll be good
Thanks Matt, that worked perfectly. And thanks to everyone else for trying to help. I appreciate it
Well, usually when I boot my TMN 2.1 ROM, I see a TMN splash screen and then the regular Android boot animation with the glowing text.
However, from day before yesterday, this is not happening. The TMN splash appears and the screen goes blank. Then after some time the regular Android text animation appears and immediately loads the launcher/home.
Everything appears to be working fine. Even the time taken for boot looks normal but the screen suffers a blackout for some time during the boot.
Any idea how to fix it or why this happens?
In my lg gt540 reference thread in developers part there is a post about possible solutions when you brick your phone, check it out, hope it helps!
hi lavero, i just wanted to ask which app you use for customizing your phones visuality like launchers,widgets,etc. i couldnt able to pm you cause im at the school now and gives problem with pm'ing.
sorry for my english.
@lavero: The phone is not bricked. :/ It works fine. Only boot animation is missing.

Check if you don't get to see recovery too. If so then is bricked but not big deal just check my thread and do what is in there
Now if you manage to get in recovery try flashing boot.img again but always erase then flash. What was the last ROM you flashed?

Am in the stock ROM with fastboot. The ROM used to work fine. I installed a few apps and ubuntu(from nexus one hacks)... The recovery works fine too..
The boot animation(Android logo) is stored in boot.img? Not in system.img? Looks like I will need a bit of tinkering to extract boot.img from the kdz.
Anyway, thanks. I could just try a clean flash. Restoring apps is the only pain since I use link2sd. I should've made a NAND before that day. :/
I'm looking for a guide to return my phone to stock.
I've got CM7 on it but it's being lent to a friend who wants the stock HTC stuff.
I've done a factory reset through HBOOT (think that is it) and now it doesn't want to connect to my PC to fling a HTC rom onto it.
I'm UK, if it makes a difference to the roms link.
Thanks for any help!
Quick way, flash this to get a stock htc froyo rom, it won't take away root access or cwm though.

Thanks, got it!
It'll be good enough for him!
Phone did go into an endless cycling of trying to boot and playing the HTC start up tune, but a battery removal sorted that.
PLZ HELP!!! it's girlfriend's phone, so i dont know sh** of him. How can i flash this, with CW or how, coz i try to flash from recovery mod and wan't do the thing, it sa's "can't open sdcard update.zip" or when i chose a zip file it sa's "please switch to Edify scripting...." what should i do... :silly: thx in advance..
Flash this file first, then once that is flashed you'll be in a temporary 2.5 recovery.
Using that, flash the file that said you needed Edify scripting.
thank you very much sir, its working now, :good: , but i have one question still, does it RUU... remove root or phone is still rooted... i know im bothering you but i need to sell the phone tomorow...
nwm... sry i didnt read the post till the end...
Sorry but im not understand.
Now i have cm7. How i can restore phone to stock without root and all modding?

Ok, I'm still a noob when it comes to Android.
I have a rooted Sprint S4 on the OTA MJA update and TWRP Recovery 2.6.3.0.
I want to know how to get ROM Toolbox to perform the randomly selected boot animations I have downloaded from ROM Toolbox application itself.
What do I need to do get the random boot animations to work when the phone reboots because it is still showing the same Samsung/Sprint boot animations?
Cookbook instructions please.
TIA
I thought xda was supposed to be the place to go for help, even for noobs, guess I was wrong...not a single reply. :'(

XDA favors those who search. It's NOT a support/help site. Though most go out of their way to help those that help themselves.
Okay </preach>
So you can try starting here. This enabled me to use my cutom boot animation zips. One thing to make sure is that you have the right screen size on any images (1080 1920) you are planning on using for this device - wrong screen size can send you into a bootloop that requires a nandroid restore.
And here.
With the stock (Odexed) ROMs it is often more difficult to use custom boot animations they might not always work (or you'll have to delete the qmg files first)

Seems I am getting farther down the rabbit hole, now running TriForceROM 5.0 and that has proved to have an improved battery life.

You may need the ktoonsez kernel from the TF5.0 aroma. Then download the boot animation you want from your Rom Manager then install through your recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and fix permissions, reboot.
Haven't done this yet on TF5.0 but that's exactly how I did it on the last release. Went with the golden skull and bones. Not sure if you can get it to toss up a random one on each reboot though on the S4. Think RM was focused on a different set of phones altogether so maybe all the options in it won't play nice with the S4, just thinking out loud.
Or do what leaderbuilder said
I'm still trying to make my own, have to make time though. A lot of it.

I seem to really like the one where the android is urinating on the Apple.
So like an idiot, I didn't take a nandroid before flashing bootanimation4u, and now, whenever I turn my phone on, my boot animation is black. It boots properly, but I just don't have a boot animation. I still have the sounds that play. Which will fine, isn't ideal. I would rather have some indication that the phone is turning on as normal than just going straight into nothing.
I have tried putting a custom bootanimation.zip file in both /system/media and /data/local and nothing seems to allow me to use a custom animation.
So reading later on in the bootanimation4u thread, it says 4.4.2 or Kitkat in general, isn't able to work with Bootanimation4u. Which is odd because I am about 95% sure that I had it working at one time or another before. So I looked at the files that the flashable zip changes, and replaced those with stock files. Still nothing, I am still getting a straight black screen.
So then I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...memade-bootanimations-collection-how-t1897969 and tried to use this, however, I have the same issue.
The custom boot animation I have been trying to use is the stock Google Nexus boot animation (the one with four circles).
This is on a Stock NAE ROM.
EDIT:
Would a dirty flash possibly fix this problem? If I do dirty flash, what issues might that cause me if the device has been modified with Hotspot / SD Card fix, and other things?
Did you try Rom Toolbox? I change these every couple days. Choose the file from your local folder, hit install, reboot. Done. If its still not working maybe it's the zip? Can you install other ani's? Maybe the Rom you use doesn't support custom boot ani's? Just thinking out loud.

I have tried several different animations, none work. All are supposedly built for this device. Using boot animation, not specifically ROM toolbox, I tried to flash some zip files I locally had with no success.
Bootanimation4u and the other link in that post, is supposed to allow for the ability to have/use custom bootanimations regardless of ROM.

Well try Rom Toolbox, you can get the free version. Open that app, grant it root if asked, swipe over to boot animations, choose local tab, find your file and select then choose install and reboot. I don't think you can preview first in free version. When it reboots it should be your Ani. No need to flash anything. If that doesn't work try flashing a different kernel and then retry. I don't know this bootanimation4u app though, never needed it. There's lots of threads here with lots of animations just try a different method, you'll get it.

I too am experiencing the same issue, i have tried everything i can find so far to fix this problem however all to no avail.
i have tried using rom manager and boot animation changer as well as flashing all of the different zips for bootanimation4u
any further info would be great as i really would like to get a custom animantion back
---------- Post added at 11:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 PM ----------
ok so i managed to get this fixed right after posting.
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...memade-bootanimations-collection-how-t1897969 and downloand "CWM_CustomBootanimation_44_Enable.zip" from the fourth post
Then use rom manager to change your boot animation
Job Done!
