[Q] need a custom boot animation cooked based off existing boot animation. - Acer Iconia A500

Is there anyine here adapt at boot animations who can cook me up a modified animation with added text?
Thanks,
Posted from my a500 oc @ 3ghz ddr3 speed 17% boost. Taboony 2.2 Honeyvillan 2.4+ custom with ntegra fixes. 17890 cf-bench, 9000 antutu. Custom named n-Game OS v 1.2.3b.

Why not do it yourself? It's just a matter of editing some jpg's then rezipping (storage mode).

You might see if you can get ahold of gammaRascal. His Siggy reads like this... "Interested in a custom Boot Animation for your ROM? Contact me! Want to incorporate one of my stand-alone Boot animation? Contact me!"
He is very helpful around here and I've seen some of the animations that he makes. Good stuff.

I pretty much ignore requests from new users or those who haven't participated in the community long enough. It's completely personal and keeps me free from headaches.
On the other side of that, of course, is that I'm more than happy to jump hoops for someone who's had a positive impact here and is a member in good standing in any of the forums here [and I'll check posts and I will read responses].
If there is a project [rom etc] and there's progress, I'm in. If it's a half baked affair from a 10 post noob with big ideas and waving their 'I need a custom bootanimation' arms around like a monkey? Pass.

Lol, I understand. If I had taken one moment to think about it from that angle I would never namedropped on ya. But I do like your work. Thanks, and appreciate you not griping me out when I might have overstepped. I will try to pay more attention.

Not at all I'm flattered and appreciate it. I'd be pretty thrilled to be a part of a quality rom but my hopes aren't too high on that front as they mostly do them on they're own.
I'm just too busy to **** around with half assed ideas and personal requests from people I don't know, ya know.

I am actually working on a linux hybrid that will bring some linux features to andtoid. You will be sble to read sb out it soon in the projects homepage. I have a stable version already, however am waiting for ICS asop or deoxed nexus dump before continuing the project. It is a very serious project, one that I personally hope to win some competitons with. However I am now contemplwting putting the project entirely on hold until transformer 2 or ntegra 3 hits late this year.

Thanks gbhil. Your works have been incredibly appreciated.

Reposted from Android Central (link above):
Guys and Gals -
First off, I had a read through and I'm glad for you all that it looks like you might get a working camera with the 2.1 leak. Congratulations to whomever figured it out.
Now on to the not so good news. This morning I received an email from the developer of a popular market application. It seems that someone has put out a ROM full of stolen software, and associated my name with it, as they took the boot image from one of my ROMS and called it their own. This developer and I have squared things away, so no harm no foul on my end.
It does leave me in a dilemma. Rather than have my name tossed in to a mix like this again, I've decided that I'm finished developing for the Hero. Enjoy the work, I won't take it down, and if I can get Google Earth and Nexus one wallpapers working a bit better (yes I have it loading and running, but it locks the system up after 30 seconds or so) I'll pass that fix to the few people here who have helped out so that they can package it up in any way they like.
The person responsible (and I won't name names - they know who they are, and the work they put out with my name attached isn't hard to find) has really soured me. I have been an open source developer for almost 20 years, and am very happy that the carrier I use for cellular service finally released a (mostly) open source operating system for me to play with. The way I see it this leaves me with two choices:
1. - Stop releasing work that others can use in any way they like
2. - Stop developing altogether for the Hero.
I chose number 2. There is already enough closed development and a "I'm first" mindset. That also goes against everything I believe in, so it's not an option. Bundling my name with software piracy and IP theft is not an option either. I will not let this happen again.
Keep the flames and ignorant comments to yourself please. I've thought about this all day, and this is my decision. I'll always be available to help others in any way I can, but I won't be publishing any more work. Rather then wasting time and energy to tell me how wrong I am, please use that effort to congratulate the individual who has placed me in this position. Sorry, but it is what it is.
Jerry.

Thanks for all your help and support.
drink water move on...
You can't let one person mess something up for everyone else...That's not right.
please name the rom, that way some of us can boycott that rom..
shouldn't let this one person stop you from doing what you love to do though...
gbhil ..you've done a great job with the kernel + hack ..your work is very respected around here..do not go...
Gbhil didnt mention it. Dont know if he will.
oh damn that sucks im digging your roms i hate to see you go !
id love to know the rom that your talking about
i hope change your mind and stick around
well chances are he will wont be changing his mind any time soon well lets look at the roms there are
flipz-him and cghil have done alot of work together
theres
darch- who gbhil has helped out a bit and he doenst have alot of software on there thats not allowed
Aloysius 1.0 ROM - dont know alot about this rom anyone know about this rom.

and there can be more roms else were but those what i have seen here

Don't forget BIKCMP with the Pancake rom, but he seems to be respectable too IMO. I don't think I've seen a rom yet that doesn't incorporate at the least Gbhils custom memory killer kernel.

Thank you
Well, first lets thank gbhil for his effort, time, and work that he's put into helping us develop.
His guidance has helped almost every project associated with the CDMA Hero.
You will be missed.
That being said, let us not take this as setback. Use it as inspiration to get your own hands dirty. There's no better time than now to learn the trade.
And please, don't go on a witchhunt to attempt to bring this person to "justice." It puts the entire community into a bad light, something that a lot of us don't want.
HEY GBHIL dont leave f00, ur roms rox my sox in a box of rox. i was using flipz old 2.1 rom (before droid eris leak) and then i switched to ur droid eris leak remake or w/e and i was like AMAGADZ its so 1337 and fast. it's almost like the hero isnt a crappy slow 524mhz processor with ur rom. let us know the dev's ip who put the pirated stuff up so we can pwnz his comput0r with 1337 hax0rz

I think when he says boot image he might mean the actual boot.img of his roms. That has to be modified for his kernel to work in the first place, so everything out there incorporating his work has in some way used it.

Greatest Rom

So with all the Roms that we have available today for the Droid Eris, which one is the best in every way? Even though very few people im sure have got a chance to try each and every Eris ROM. Give us some input.
Thanks
no such thing as the greatest rom. what I think is the answer, someone else might not agree. now me personally, i like the vanilla/cyanogen roms. currently running celb
I have always been a fan of any ROM done by framework. His work ethic is good and he is responsive to input. He has sensless, Evil Eris, and CyanEris. Right now, however, he is working through some small tweaks that promise to be great when fixed and repackaged into a single ROM again. That said I have recently been on ErisLightningBolt Cyan and it is phenomenal! This is a cyanogen ported ROM that conap is kicking butt on making. With 2.4 it is now extremely stable and EVERYTHING works, except for mms outgoing. It runs smooth, snappy, and cool. It also has the best battery life of the cyanogen ROMs avail right now IMO. As far as non cyan I also loved Aloysius 2.0 Snow. Again another extremely stable rom that everything just works without having to mess with a bunch of crap.

+1 on that! Framework's stuff is always good... he's been a little busy recently, but he's always good with "finishing" his projects!
on top of that... i'm a "no-sense" (literally... lol) kinda guy. i LOVE the Cyanogen ErisLightingBolt release. and, i ALWAYS have a NAND of Tainted Vanilla handy. it WAS my ONLY daily ROM and everything "just worked" with it (super fast and smooth). but man... CELB2.4 is sweet!
however, you'll just have to see what you prefer... and try a few out. that's what i had to do!

I guess im lucky, i havent had the outgoing mms issue with 2.4. I dont often use mms, mostly gmail to send stuff like that, but i have tried it out since i flashed both the rom, and the theme i applied. Of course i also have done the apn fix on the rom, that might have something to do with it but over all i find this extremely stable and well worth downloading

It's impossible that one ROM is "best" in "every way".
The ROM devs focus on different things, and try to optimize those things.
The Froyo ROMs are "the best" at being a 2.2 based ROM - but I doubt anybody uses them day-to-day.
Some people like bug-free, some like eye-candy, some want to optimize their Linpack results, some like Sense, some hate Sense.
What is good about this is that as the devs gain experience making a certain package work well, the other devs get the benefit of their knowledge & experience (hopefully), and all the ROMs get better with time.

Install and use all of them and pick one. THAT one is "the best".
Like everyone else "best" ROM no such thing... if you want stock -run Ivans official rom... Ive tested every rom, and im back to ivans... best out there IMO, r00t!!!
White Widow is the best

I second that. It's pretty much bugless now. Normal battery life and LinPacks in the 5+ range all the time. Facebook sync works as well. You get real time updates and interaction from the developer on Google Wave. It's very interactive getting to have real input on the ROM. Plus, you don't have to deal with people trolling and flaming. Everyone should check it out.
White Widow Official Discussion Wave
WHITE WIDOW IS THE BEST BY FAR
it is also constantly updated and there is an update that should be out pretty soon.
White Widow 3.2
By far.
You'll find it on Google Wave, not the forums. Too much complaining about it.
Fast, vanilla, stable.
I was totally being sarcastic, White Widow is one of the worst, but at least you get the point that you don't want to take anyone's word for it just try them out yourself.

You been bad mouthing WW for weeks. Its understandable, you do not like it. But you made your shots at the developer, not the ROM itself. That's fine, you have a chip on your shoulder.
But it seems a bit odd you try to be sarcastic with very non sarcastic words with little to no reason to do so.
It's a bit more odd you respond to your own sarcasm without being prompted.
In fact, every post I have seen of yours are negative.
Are you a troll in disguise?

Enjoy your ROM, I hope he gets a C&D order since he's distributing it with google ****s.
Distributing it or not.
Other ROM's that canot distribute google ****s provide a link to download it.
Reminiscent of pirates bay-esque thinking. "We don't distribute it, we simply provide a way for you to download it"
Same thing.

Just shows his inability to follow the rules, instead of keeping it separate he distributes it with his ROM, he steals themes, he includes 3rd party applications.
I can't believe you guys would trust a kernel from someone who has been caught on multiple occasions taking other peoples work and calling it his own. Enjoy your back doored kernel, i hope you don't use mint.com!

...taking other peoples work
-Credit was given-
...instead of keeping it separate he distributes it with his ROM
-Providing a link is the same evil-
...steals themes
-There is no theme-
...includes 3rd party applications.
-There is more than one ROM guilty of this-
... back doored kernel
-Unproven troll-legations-
Let's stop making this a 'Let's back up Andrizoid' thread.
He already has a laughable reputation with anyone putting credible and worthwhile effort into developing ROMs. It doesn't much matter what everyone thinks.
As well, it's pretty obvious that taking other peoples' work and having it all seamlessly integrate makes for a GREAT ROM. As it turns out, when everyone else has already done the leg work, and you slap it together, great things can happen. Funny how that works.
White Widow might be a great ROM. That's what this is about. Don't use the fact that you can discuss things on Google Wave with the "developer" (if he calls himself that) as a positive trait of this ROM. It has nothing to do with it. I wouldn't use White Widow on Principle. Let whoever wants to use/download it decide that.
I think Ivan's Eris_Official 1.0 is the best stock-looking SenseUI ROM. It is the most stable ROM of ANY ROM (although may be equivalently stable to Plain Jane), and has the most saught after features available to put together with it (apps2sd, overclocking, optimized .pngs in all the .apks, wifi tether, etc). It's my favorite because it LOOKs just like everyone else's hero/eris, but is infinitely more capable.
EvilEris 3 is one of my favorites as well, as again I love SenseUI (every time I go vanilla, I come back to Sense even though its slower), and the skin is perfect. It also includes some of the Sense widgets that Incredible users and Legend users get that weren't included on the Eris (great job with the OpenSense plugin, Framework43 !). Sense crashes sometimes, and the GPS icon stays on the top, but it's because of all of the great features and skinning he's done. Great daily ROM.
just my 2 cents here
If its your code he "stole" take it up with him. If its your friends, inform your friend, otherwise its not much of your concern? unless your into joining that patent lawsuit with Steve B-Jobs

Ziggy 471 kernels added. Perform damn well for HTC based kerns. Very excited!
:::::::::::::UPDATE 3/16:::::::::SavagedZen 2.1's:::::::
ok, this new kernel rocks. SZ .2.0 Is up on my website for download and for voting and it's on the graphs. Amazing results to say the least. Most significant battery changes in a long long time. Closest to 42 on linpack ever. They just released a .2.1cfs so I assume they forgot something in the .2.0's. Usually that is what happens when they release a .x.1 right after a .x.0 So I will update the downloads accordingly. But I know that the .2.0s perform bugfree for my everyday use. Maybe it was just the SZ governor they forgot to merge again or whatever, I dunno, I'll look into it. Enjoy the results.

Wow, great work, that's a lot of info in there.
Are you planning to test some of the non-sense kernels? I saw somone post a quadrant score over 1700 with the MiUI test rom, would be interesting to see some of the AOSP results.
awesome work man... its gonna be great to see everything side by side like that
one question tho: no love for the AOSP kernels?
edit: apparently I have been beaten to the punch
looks like King's # 6 is the best all around...
from what i saw....i could be wrong
yeah, AOSP kernels would be great to see data for compared to all of these 'almost the samey' kernels.
and I'm back from work lol!
Yeah aosp kernels I am going to do add in next. I just tested snap with turbo, and LOL omfg 2500 in quad is insane.
Linpacks didn't go up though, so it must not have been dalvik vm optimizations. I wonder what turbo really is.... hrmm
And yeah, on sense roms i use kings 6bfs as my daily driver. Error free, smooth as silk, and lightning fast, all with amazing battery life.. Kings 7bfs and 8cfs had some really weird problems and I wont touch it. It was jerky as hell, didn't score well. I tried several wipes/reflashes/redownloads, etc. without resolving it.
very nice!! thanks for the contribution!
ive been doing the same thing charting rom (with and without custom kernels) development progress from 2.1 stock all the way till now with fresh and netarchy.
Its just fun to see how fast the phone has gotten through the months since release.
Dunno if and when i'll get the time to illustrate the data, but its been my little side quest too!!
cheers homie.
Can't wait for the AOSP kernel results! nice work!
Great work. However, if I may offer a suggestion, please add the stock kernels so we have an idea as to how they compare?
I too would love to see a comparison to stock. I haven't made the jump to a new kernel yet, but I want to soon and this thread is great for helping me pick which one.

Everyone always asks what the best kernel is, or what the differnces are between them. I decided to spend a month or so testing stuff. I made a webpage where all of you can view the differences. I will of course be continually updating the page with new kernels and hopefully new tests as well. There is my contact info on the page, and you can just pm me here also if you want. Of course I put up a donation link, don't flame me, it just takes a lot of my time to do this, so I figured if anyone appreciated it and wants to donate then my kids can certainly use the diapers lol.

We all appreciate your hard work and contributions.
Htc 6 and 7 kernels added in the mix! Eat it up peoples. It's easy to see why 7 has everyone praising it over battery life. It has an extremely low idle power draw, and that is what most people's phones do 90 percent of the time anyways.
will someone please send me the 3.29 kernel from the new OTA? send it to [email protected] or [email protected] and I'll have it on the list tomorrow. FPS Unlocked straight from htc??? ZOMG they listened to evo owners WOOOOOOHOOOO!. This should lead to some interesting hacked versions of it. They fixed the battery life, and now this. You'd think they care or something lol.
super impressive, i just rooted a couple of my friends' evo's this evening and this was super helpful. I'm on cyanogen but they both wanted to stay with sense. will definitely donate on payday, hope you get the aosp kernels added in.

Not sure if I dreamt it or where I heard it from that someone else was going to be picking up development of the Hydra Kernals, any truth to this?
Would love to see an update to Hydra with the new codes floating around.

There was some discussion of this before ejhart left the kernel scene. I'm not sure that anyone took it on. I was a huge fan of his work. Always put out stable kernels. You would not see 'zomg boot loop' threads when people ran hydra. He always worked very hard to ensure the gap between stability and performance was at an absolute minimal.
The guy knows his ****. I'd love to see him come back just to release a kernel on the new source.

Mod]sense 3.0 lockscreen for aosp[8/14]

This is more a proof of concept i have been working on since yesterday. I love aosp roms but i hate the lockscreens, sense 3.0 is where its at. I stumbled upon a new lockscreen that may be ported into the cm7 roms soon. Its a honeycomb sytle lock. It is available in the OMFGB nightlies only.
I basically modded the framework.res with png's i found from the miui & widgetlocker sense 3.0 lockscreen themes. As you can see from my screenshots this looks very similar to the sense lockscreen. The only thing it will not have is the 4 shortcuts.
Now i need some testers and some modders to help me out in porting this from OMFGB to other aosp roms such as cm7 & liquid. I am a themer, not a coder. As you can see from my screenshots i cannot get the ring to recess at the bottom and when you go to unlock it cuts the top of the ring off. This is where i need help, i believe a resource file or xml in the framework needs to be modded, i cannot do this.
To me this has huge potential, we could possibly even port custom rings over like we have for sense roms.
*Credits go to whoever created this honeycomb lockscreen and to the makers of OMFGB.
Lets see what we can do with this guys. Pm me if you feel you can help finish off this mod.

Edit: I have attached two zips below. The sense_theme can be flashed via clockwork on OMFGB only to show you guys the work i have done. The sense3d zip is all the files i used to do the mod and the framework.res from OMFGB. feel free to use this to help get this lockscreen completed. So you know, i flashed a different style font to get the excact look of my screenshots, yours may look different depending on what fonts you use.
R2doesinc is now onboard to help finish what i started. He said he will include this in a future OMFGB nightly. But as we know alot of projects never get finished so if you feel you can help with this theme or use it in your aosp rom, get in contact with me. I definitely want to see this concept be completed.
reserved for whatever.
I love this. I cant help but I can test.

Outstanding. Clearly the potential is there. This is the ONLY part of sense I miss. I even like it without the shortcuts. Make it black and I'm done. I will be following this with much anticipation. Thanks again.

Definitely interested. Just went over to uber bamf and although very nice, to me AOSP is just smoother. But like you said, sense 3.0 lockscreen is amazing so I'm here as well to test out. Wish I could be of more assistance but I don't know how to code. hopefully this gets worked out.

i could make a black ring, we just need to find a way to make the ring recessed at the bottom and not cut off when unlocking. i doubt we will be able to make shortcuts as of now. i also love the look, we just need to get this ported to cm7 and or other aosp roms. right now it only works in OMFGB. hopefully the cm team will approve the honey lock into his nightlies, i know it has been submitted already.

lol yeah, i have no idea how to mod xml's or resources. that's what i think need to be done to position the ring properly. best of all this works better than any 3rd party market app out there right now.
Heads up. potential for more tester coming your way... a link to the was created on Android Central

this was posted at rootzwiki as well. testers yes, i need them but i also need a devs help to edit the theme so the ring is positioned correctly. i hope we can get this to work on all aosp roms. as i said the potential for this is HUGE. i can see custom rings being ported over as well. it's like having the best of both worlds here while not taking away any elements from aosp.
Amazing. I don't normally run OMFGB so I can't use it on my AOSP rom right now, but I'll flash later in the day just to try it out.

i normally use liquid aosp but im switching to OMFGB for the time being to work on this.
to get this ported to all AOSP's would be awesome... no matter what ROM's im testing or trying, i always seem to come back to CM7.
Im going back to liquid until this can be ported over. i hope the cm team approves the lockscreen so i can theme it. if anybody wants to continue developing this to get the ring sorted out, pm me.
Hmm...400+ views and hardly no replies? Doesnt seem like alot of interest here.

I'm totally interested. Unfortunately all I can offer you is to be a tester.
Fix, I can test but cannot mod. I am running CM7

R2doesinc is now onboard. Im mobile right now. Ill update the thread tonight.
ive been talking to R2 and this will be available shortly in their nightly. he is also implementing the 4 shortcuts with a on & off type toggle so everyone can be happy. once this is complete i hope we can get the aosp devs to port it to their roms. the source will be available on the githubs. glad i started this and never thought it would actually take off.
