I've tried to make my own boot animation, but I really can't get it to work.
My desc.txt is fine as far as i can tell, i've tried everything i've read on how to fix it. I just get a black screen when booting.
I was hoping maybe someone here could take a look at it and see what I did wrong?

1st, you have to pack in in the zip in store mode, uncompressed.
2nd, you're desc file was incorrect.
The first 2 numbers are the resolution, yours were way off.
Fixed version attached.

I had tried it with 480 and 320, but it didn't work either. The values I had in the desc.txt attached were taken from another bootanimation to see if it would work.
But either way, thanks guys!

I might do some work on it though, this isn't flashable yet, just some images in a zip file:

For some reason it took me forever to make this cause I couldn't get the images to line up correctly.theres a bug that has to be fixed with expanded before the images can actually be used.

good job, Ace42. Mind if i try to make a morph outta this? Been lookin' for it for a while. Would go well with my hero theme that I have because I have the desire icon pack for people to flash to get the updated sense look, and this would just complete it. Whatcha say?! I'ma look at the file right now.
Just a quick look and the first problem I noticed was that in drawable-land, one of the tabs is half erased

noticed that as well. I'm gonna try and edit this and fix it up and make a metamorph out of it. Hope Ace42 doesn't mind. Well, i guess he put it up so we can all partake in gettin' this done right, right? lol
I dont mind i posted cause i needed help, you're free to use it.
Ok gang, I wanted to post this up yesterday but got a bit tired. I set have these apk files with 3 mods in each. Please enjoy them and please give credit if you use them. I want to give credit to the original app from "mjdev" I took the images and changed them to my liking and I hope you like them as well.

Sorry about that people. Like a knucklehead I signed the zip instead of the files. So its up and running please excuse my mess up.
I think the upload is corrupt, I keep getting a problem parsing package error...downloaded 3 times to make sure it wasn't on my end.

oh man, let me check it out and will let you know. thanks for letting me know.
OK its up and running now, I'm so sorry about that. I was such in a rush and signed the zip file instead of the files itself.
Thought I bring this up front and say I'm making some more mods. Stay tuned.
do u think u could release those same mods without the italics??

Oooo...thanks for the digital watches! And the miui clocks are so lovely too. I like that you made them in various colours. Can't thank you enough!

yes, well, i think just a boot animation, like the CM6/7 animations, but w/ my files & a htc logo, or have free will
Got bored today at work and thought I would post this up. Trying to keep the boot clean and simple. Below is a sample and the download link.

I used root explorer to copy the bootanimation.zip to /system/media/. Make sure to make a copy of the existing bootanimation.zip just in case you need to restore.
Looks nice
looks gr8 thanks
This looks simple and great. I'm gonna try it sometime. Thanks for this!
simple, yet good looking hehe
Thanks all
Very classy mate.
Any chance of adding a CM7 logo to it...great job.
If you can get me a link to their logo I can work on it.
Very cool. Thank you.

That one works sure. Let me check if I find any other
Update: Found the one with the 7 but I like that one you got better.
I just need to get the "ok" that I can use their logo and I'll start working on it.
Very nice, thank you!
Sorry for the delay.. work and a one year old is slowing me down.
Seen there are few portal boot animations but they seemed to be just shots from the game videos. I decided to give my own take on Portal Droid. First Boot Animation and I intend to touch it up and give it a bit of polish but for the moment I like it.
I made it for my Nexus S so its 480x800 but you can just modify the desc.txt file inside the .zip to your screen size however I don't know how it will work out and as usual apply at your own risk! But seriously if it isn't going to work it just won't run and your phone will boot with no animation.
It loops when the droid is in the infinite fall.
