My BMW M5 Boot Image and Aninmation (need alittle help on animation) - Atrix 4G General

So I opted to make a boot screen and animation. The screen is fine 540x960 however, my animation when I try to install it doesn't. Anyone wanna have a look and see what im missing? Attached is the animation and simple boot screen.
steps I took:
found .gif I liked (will make my own once i get this one to work)
went to http://aboota.devbro.com/ and made my files
took the desc.txt from another boot animation that is currently working on my atrix
zip it all up
recovery....you know the rest.
but when I select the zip file, it aborts and doesnt throw any errors.
Much thanks

If this is a question it belongs in Q&A. If it is a release of a boot animation, it belongs in themes and apps.
Cheers.

Here's the fixed bootanimation. Apply through cwm

Cool idea, but it needs to be an e34 or e39 m5?

E28 would be much better!
Fastest production sedan/saloon on the planet when it came out.
I had a 1987 E28 M5, Silver, with full body kit before I moved to the US 14 years ago.
Best car I ever owned.

I'll be making a posted release for the Indy Red e60 M5...since thats what I have

I guess I will have to wait for Tonic. I was trying to make it myself, but I can't get it to actually play during startup. Does anyone know if there is an upper limit to the number of images the boot animation will support?
This video is 560 frames played at about 25 fps. I can try removing some of them that are nearly identical in the beginning to cut it down some, and maybe from other areas.

Success.

You can extract ANY rom and replace the boot animation files with these.
Re-zip the sucker and flash as normal.
The files are in \system\media as "bootanimation.zip" (surprise!)
Will give it a shoot and will let you know!
Give it a shot instead and lemme know :þ
If you clicked through to the example youtube showing it booting up on a Motorola device and scrolled down..you would have found this...

it is awesome!!! thanks for the suggestion on packing it in to the rom worked like a charm! i do agree i think it should be turned 90 degrees and blown up a little and should slow the animation down just a little bit! over all this is the sickest boot screen!
I tried extracting and rezipping didnt work can some one pls flash it with nero 5 thanks

I've been working on just this, but for some reason it only plays 1/2 of it and then goes blank. Been really frustrating as I have been following Tonic's directions to the letter. Gonna start from scratch and see if I can get it.

[Q] Slow Start up (white htc evo 4g screen)

Hey all,
I have a rather annoying issue and I'm not sure what the culprit is. Anytime I have to reboot my phone it stay on the white htc evo 4g screen for nearly 2 minutes every time. Once I see the CM7 splash screen it goes rather quick, just getting to that point takes for ever. So I flashed the sprint lovers rom and of course it is fine and quick to boot. Wondering if anyone else has the problem?
I've wiped everything many times in hopes of fixing it but no joy. Also I am running cm7.0.2 (which i just did a fresh install after wiping everything numerous times in hope of clearing this problem).
--Steve
What recovery are you using to wipe and flash with? I have had the same thing but it does not always happen. I have flashed the newer nightly 57 and have not seen that problem yet.
I'm having similar issue, it will hang at the htc screen till i do a battery pull and then start it up and goes right through. I'm using clockwork recovery 3.0.0.5 which recovery is the best?
I have the same problem with cm7, and i reflashed it multiple times. This doesnt happen with any other rom i use.
This happens to me as well, it's rather annoying. You're using clockwork, I'm using amonra and it's happening to us both
Sent from MIUI IS BETTER THAN YOURS
I'm using Amon recovery. I guess it's time to logcat what is going on during that time.......
well during the time that it is on that white screen you cannot connect to the device, I was able to right before it flashed over to the cm7 splash screen. So it just sits at the white screen doing nothing???
--Steve
so no one knows of a solution?

Yeah... go pee or make a sandwhich J/k... mine takes forever to boot too, thought this was just the standard start up time
I'm on myn rls5 and clockwork mod recovery version 2.6 I rebooted my phone last night and it hung on white screen for over 5 minutes till I did a battery pull... After battery pull it hung on white screen for 3 minutes then booted right up..
This is first time I've seen this
Also I did not flash anything... I booted into recovery then clicked reboot now.

this is not an issuie of being stuck, it just takes a about 1:40 to get to the cm7 splash screen. but the stick and sprint lovers rom boot normal.
I would not care but when i see my epic do a boot in like 15 seconds I say why caint my evo do that.

I need to know if everyone have this problem ?
becaue its very annoying and for example sometimes when something doesnt work like GPS ! i need to reboot the phone and it takes 2 minutes on a white screen with full brightness which eats up the battery for 2 minutes as well ! this is a big bug is there any suggestion or explanation for this ?
Not sure of I'll be of any help but... I've noticed that after wiping cache that most roms boot slow. Maybe boot info in cache?
Also considering it doesn't affect the actual rom, and its quick to get to the unlock and home screen, vs sense which is slow to boot imo, its not really a bug... Besides if youre playing around to where you are rebooting you should be near a charger.

This happens to cm7/soap only.
I don't know why; I've read because fastboot isn't enabled or there are so many framework changes
Gimme a couple a days to come up with a new sig that is cool.

Nope, I'm on Fresh Evo 3.5.0.1 with latest Amon RA and have the slow boot from White HTC to the fresh screen then its quick , and I assume by soap you meant to say AOSP
For the longest time I have had this issue and said fml whenever i saw the white screen. i literally put the phone down and do other **** until it boots up. Until now, i thought it was just me. Good thing somebody finally decided to make a thread about it. Someone get a ROM dev up in this *****
Ok, so, after reading this I became aware of my boot time. I am pretty sure my phone boots completely in less than a min... CM7, newest timat, and I use vrsuperwipe a couple times and wipe all user, cache and dalvik. Though it is cool to see my unrevoked splash.
Sent by Supersonic!
I used to have this problem a while ago, i did different things and did some monitoring...
I believe the culprit is if you only wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache before flashing a new ROM(granting you want to do a clean install). When you do this, some files are still left in SYSTEM and BOOT. Granted most files are written over by a newly flashed rom, but some old files are left behind. The newer version of Amon-RA have the options to wipe BOOT and SYSTEM as well, or you can try using Caulkin's Format All.
I would try giving this a shot. Make a nandroid backup, then do a Caulkin's format all, then do a fresh install of the newest nightly. Don't time the first boot because that's always going to take long. After you reboot a 2nd time, I would see how long that takes.
If that doesn't solve it, just nandroid back and make believe you never saw this message =P

[Q] What would like to see in a Boot Animation

Having played around with the boot animation I'm wondering if you'd (you reading this) would consider taking the time to outline what you think makes a good custom boot animation...
I'd love to put some effort into making quality boot animations of varying types - not necessarily what I think is nice or cool but rather, what the community would like to see. What 'you' want to see.
I'm open to any and all original idea's and suggestions. You'll get full 'concept' credit if your ideas makes it into a new release.
Let's hear'em.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vCYj3aiQE4 CAN YOU DO THIS?
Well I played around with the stock version but I can't get the zip under 14mb at 1280x800. Seem like overkill imo.
Also, it is kind of all over the place in multiple itterations.
I kind of feel bad now - having asked for suggestions and opening up discussion, just to put the breaks on the first idea that comes in ): I am sorry.
I edited my original post to include the word, original.
Don't be shy. Throw your ideas agains't the wall and lets see what sticks. This is an open discussion for everyone.

I'm not rehashing boot animations. Sorry guys.
Just bumping back to page 1. Still looking for discussion - your thoughts and what you'd like to see.
Don't be shy. (;
How about an X-wing type craft, with an Android instead of an R2 unit, I don't think that I'd even have a cockpit, just an Android. Doing a final trench run, and as the pan out an apple blows to bits as the craft flys at ya.
If I had the talent that would be what I would make first. I'd love to see it.
Can you do this with the Acer stats?
MOD EDIT:
PLEASE UPLOAD A SMALLER IMAGE SIZE
There are already some faux-pc start up boot animations. I'm not interested in rehashing boot animations.
How about start with the iPad bootscreen then have it fizzle and die replaced by a dancing android
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
lol! That could be quick and easy to do.
Personally, I always wanted to design a simple bootscreen(not that I have any clue how to do it)of the zig-zaggy heart monitor screen flat lined and then slowly getting a heart beat back as it comes on...possibly if you wanted to, instead of the blood pressure and pulse rate numbers in the corners throw up the processor speed or whatever numeric stat you wanna stick there. Possibly even a little flashing android in place of the little flashing heart.
Either that, or just a picture of Steve Jobs' head on a pike...just kidding.
Don't want ANY boot animations.
Anything running like that will slow the boot down, even if it's just 1 second.
Why do people what all pretty pictures and fancy spin window animations when all they do is waste time and power??
ALL my anims are turned off, both the A500 and Windows 7 desktop.
Hate animations and fancy twirl-openings, page turns on book reader, etc

I don't believe this is the case at all. If it was blank, all you'd see is a blank screen while the system files and the OS prepares to launch the GUI. I'd rather see something than a blank screen.

As far as I know, there is no way to stop the boot animation except to replace it with something blank. All this will do, however, is cause the screen to be blank while the system loads. I don't believe it will speed it up. And the amount of power the boot animation uses it minuscule. If any, during the course of the average up-time.

Be that as it may - I think you've confused the boot animation with desktop animations. They are not the same nor interchangeable.
This thread is about ideas for what people would "like to see" as a boot animation - what plays as the tablet is loading. It's about fostering ideas.
No, I haven't confused desktop anims with boot anims.
All I'm saying is that ANYTHING the cpu is doing (including displaying animated thingys) takes up cpu cucles and memory. if it has to break off reading a file to shove the next frame to the graphics gpu side of itself, it has to take some time. Time I'd rather it used to boot up..
If I have to have a boot anim, I'd rather it be super basic, barely there than have a multi swirly 3D effect running.
"This thread is about ideas for what people would "like to see" as a boot animation - what plays as the tablet is loading. It's about fostering ideas."
I accept that, but my answer to that question is still "nothing", or "the barest minimum" - it's still an idea, after all, and a valid point.
Well nobody's going to argue with you personal opinion of boot animations. So... moving on...

You should make a boot logo based on what rom you are using.
Eg: If I have Virtuous Galaxy rom I can download a neat looking boot animation showing something with Virtuous Galaxy loading.
@gammaRascal - I appreciate what you say about not wanting to rehash your previous efforts but for those of us who drool over your animations it's rather like throwing a dog a juicy bone, no matter how good it is he is always going to beg for more! Would really like to see your "GR-Frosty v.2" animation but with the Android replaced with your new "geared" Android figure. By the way I have previously let you know that Frosty v.2 works beautifully on OTA 3.1 - still does - no lag - have you had your update yet?

Lower/Turn Off Backlight on Boot

I've noticed that my battery takes a definite hit when I reboot my phone; I know that it's doing a lot of work with leading everything, but the screen's on full brightness, too. I was wondering if there was a way to turn it off (or, better, turn it to a bare minimum - I just installed a badass boot animation )?
Sorry if this has been asked/answered before, and/or is in the wrong forum - I did a search and didn't find anything, and couldn't really decide which forum was best for the question...

[BOOTANIMATION] Playstation 1 boot + sound

My first post here so i'll try to be as good of an OP as possible!
So, i looked around and i couldn't find one i liked so i made my own with some help of course! And i finaly decided i want to share it with you all ^^
Since i first noticed that if you make a 1 loop bootanimation you can't make it big so even though the screen is 480x800 i scaled down the images to 360x600(75%) which made it VERY fluent when scaled up to 480x800. No chopping like it otherwise did and i could have higher fps+more frames.
This is my first bootanimation and the only thing i did was taking frames from this remastered/recreated(but slightly non-cannon *Look at where the TM is placed in the first half*) version of the PS1 boot:
"Link 1"
And i used this sound:
"Link 2"
Which i normalized so it wouldn't destroy my speaker!
links.rar has the two credit links as well as the example link(youtube) in a txt file til i get more posts
PS: Filenames in the bootanimation have their original vlc snapshot names. I will fix this in a later version now i just want oppinions and to share the beauty i've created ^^
Any ideas for a splashscreen or what to have as an ending for the animation is appriciated. Im new to all of this so!
LINKS IN THE SECOND POST!

I know it has been a while since you asked this question but to find out where and what name the bootanimation is meant to be named and kept, simply use root explorer (available on play store to buy or similar alternative)
Navigate to /system/customize/CID and open the file 'default.xml'
Now scroll all the way to the bottom and look for <BootConfiguration> should be about 30-40 lines up from bottom. There you will find the locations for bootanimation and audio. simply rename your bootanimation and/or audio to the name it says there. In my case they are
system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3
system/customize/resource/downanimation.zip
Hope it helps somone atleast if not you
thank you
animation is so good however the boot sound is more wonderful
very nice but how do I flash it?
