HELP Needed - Compressing bootanimation - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone. Last night I finished up making my own bootanimation and I came upon a snag. My bootanimation zip is HUGE. I need a way to compress it from 20ish MB to 9 MB so it can actually fit where it should. Any suggestions on what to do?
I will also make it available to download once I get out of class so you can check it out. Thanks much!

[BOOTANIMATION][HELP] Custom Bootanimation won't work

Hey everyone. Ive been trying to make my own bootanimation. I thought I did everything right putting it together, but it doesn't seem to want to work when I place it in my phone. I set the permissions to rw-r-r and everything.
If anyone could help me out and figure out what i'm doing wrong, that would help a ton. I'll post a link so you can download it and check it out.

I just tried testing it with Bootanimation Previewer and it won't load.
Did you say to replace everything in the desc file to that?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using Tapatalk
yeah sorry for the vaugeness not on computer but files are named right as for the .png, and sense roms are different then aosp for name and location. do a google search and there are some good tutorials. you are almost there. first line is screen size and frame rate second is a 1-0 on off for delay and repeat. with the folder name first.
try finding something to make it cool you can do boot an down boot with sound on sense. may work to frankenstein it find a working zip and replace files and re-zip
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Ok cool, thanks for the help. It looks like I might just have to frankenstein it, then once i get that down, make upcoming Bootanimations from scratch.
thanks again
From what I can see, compared to other ones, I need to adjust it to 15fps instead of 30.

It works!!!
IMO don't modify boot animation!! Cz if u mess up your device there ll be problem with warranty incase u hv 2 claim !!
Sent from my Galaxy S II via XDA app so sorry if i did any typographical or other mistakes!!
My phone is already rooted so the warranty would already be voided. I also didn't buy my phone from t-mobile, so I don't get a warranty in the first place, Haha.

Even i voided warranty but before giving it to service I ll flash stock & claim warranty!!

You cannot mess-up your device by playing with the boot animation, Worst case, the boot animation won't play at all and you will have a blank screen until your phone has finished booting.

init.d on stock GB

Hey guys. I've been googling and looking through /system/etc folders for a few hours, trying to add init.d to the stock GB ROM I'm cooking for my wife. I can't seem to find a tutorial for our phone. Can someone drop a link for me?
I'm using the unity v10 beta kernel. I'm assuming it supports init.d, but I may be wrong. Should I switch to Darkside v7?
She is still on Froyo. Ugh. I'm trying to upgrade her in style AND learn a few things.
Thanks.

ROM kitchen gives an option to add that while cooking. I selected it for my debloated stock rom that I posted.

[Q] need help in cooking custom rom

hello
i have been trying to build a custom rom for my phone usually i am able to pass installation phase in recovery mainly on sense base rom(i think it pure luck) but always have problem when rom boots up and start up phase come.
But now i was trying to add my own flavor to miui rom but always end up with this massage :- EEROR 6
can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong and solution to remove this error???????
i am one big idiot nooooooob
Error 6 is a tough one. Its probably your updater-script. One single out of place character or space and you will get an error 6. Did you edit the updater-script after ROM kitchen generated it?
I think I have
Thanks
Its working thanks again

I started again from scratch
I did not make much changes this time just added some apps, new themes, bootanimation and boot audio
I am still a noob and learning thanks for help
Error 6 problem was because I think I replace updater -script with update - script when creating the update.zip
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Ah, it happens
Hate it when I do that though xD

Could you give me a logcat please
OK, so I redownloaded the ROM and tried again, same thing. I let it sit on the boot animation overnight and this morning it had actually moved past it and tried to boot. It only gets to a black screen with errors like unfortunately com.process.phone has stopped working and some others. I tried to pull a logcat but it isn't booted far enough along to have loaded the adb server. ie adb cant find a device. I tried rebooting into recovery and running logcat but it says there are none found. I don't do logcats very often so I'm not sure where else to try and get it. Suggestions?

Might have uploaded the wrong version, will correct it over the weekend.
For a well functioning CM10 rom, if I were you I'd wait till Monday, the person building the nightlys (shelnutt2) is fixing a lot of things on Sunday such as the camera, fingers crossed
Thanks for the heads up. I have no problem waiting. I just started learning how to theme so maybe I can stay focused instead of playing with my Eris.
