Google's New boot animation

[new optimus]

Has anyone ever noticed that kit kats stock boot animation looks remarkably similar to windows 7's boot animation?

The animation on what device? The seasonal animation on the Moto X or something else?

Ive never seen it. Do you have an .img file of it?

On my 4.4 updated nexus 4, I think its the same one on nexus 5 too.

I can take a quick video of it if that will help.

You mean this?

I have the Nexus 5, and yes, I did indeed think that it looked bizarrely like the Windows animation.

Not until you mentioned it, no. I guess the four coloured orbs could be seen as similar though.

Yes thanks lunatic

I two thought it looked a lot like a windows screen I wish they would get more creative with these animations.

Its exactly the same as the old (4.2.2) illusion rom boot animation. I mean identical! Wonder who stole it from who
Its the google/nexus colours so i guess it makes sense. I dont use windows so i wouldnt know lol.
Check out Rom Toolbox (Pro) for some great boot anim's :thumbup:

To be honest, It never reminded me of Windows. The first time I saw it I thought of a TV network from the '60s. There was one with colored dots, but I can't recall ... Screen Gems? Desilu? Not Important Studios? I figured it was in keeping with the retro look of the screen-off animation. :dontknow:

Upon my first boot, my first thought was, that kinda looks like windows...

Since this may only be specific to the lg nexus phones it might as well go into sub forum.

I (not having any other phone to test it to) thought this was google android specific.
