Required Stuff:
1. Boot Animation Factory
2. Animation Frames (Preferably 320 x 480 png files) (I have not tried other formats)
3. Root Access
4. Any file explorer with root access
Procedure:
Step 1:
Make a folder named bootanimation.
Step 2:
Inside bootanimation folder; make a folder named part0.
Step 3:
Keep all the individual frames inside part0 folder.
I have used 320 x 480 sized png files
Important: The file name of frames should not contain any spaces.
Step 4:
Click Choose Folder..
Browse to bootanimation (not part0)
Click OK.
Step 5:
If All-Is-Well u get a green tick.
Click on Add loop
Step 6:
In the Add Loop window,
Select the folder
Select the Number of times the animation should loop.
(0 for infinite looping)
Click ADD.
Step 7:
To increase / decrease speed of animation; change the FPS.
Step 8:
Click Preview Boot animation
A new window will give a preview of boot animation.
Go back and edit the FPS etc as per your requirement...
Step 9:
Save your creation as bootanimation.zip
Step 10:
Now that you have finished making your animation, its time to copy this to your phone.
Depending on your ROM, the bootanimation.zip file maybe in any of the following locations:
a. system/media
b. system/customize/resource
c: data/local
replace the existing bootanimation.zip file with the created one and enjoy the custom animation..
**Shut animation is essentially the same procedure; except that the file is to be saved as shutanimation.zip
**You can even do this easily without Boot Animation Factory.
For this:
1. Put all ur frames in a folder named part0
2. make a txt file named desc.txt with following lines:
320 480 => ur screen size
30 => frames per second
p => part
0 => no. of times to loop
0 => pause time (max 10)
part0 => folder name
3. Zip part0 folder and desc.txt into bootanimation.zip using winrar / winzip. 7zip may not work.
Hope it was helpful.
