MickH 211 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 While poking around with ZArchiver app I found the FX boot logo animation. 🤔 Each frame is a .PNG image. Thinking back to the N900 days, would it be possible to replace the animation with one of our own? It probably won't work with a video file, but if we create animations in .PNG format it may work. Anyone brave enough to try?😛 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CornholioGSM 338 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) ...yesss you can replace it 🙂 just create bootanimation.zip , set permission to rw-r-r and reboot 🙂  ...here are some from xda user @mauam https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RpFcoEWYsRt2MX7FotKcLICqYq6l5MFY Edited June 20, 2021 by CornholioGSM 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CornholioGSM 338 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) Btw...just for interest...some android kernels can use boot animation with boot sound. You can test to search motorola droid r2d2 boot animation dump   Edited June 21, 2021 by CornholioGSM 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EskeRahn 5,460 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I would love if it selected one with the proper orientation, depending on how you hold it, and not just portrait only... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CornholioGSM 338 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) Hmmm i mean that boot animation can be only in portrait...orientation sensor is enabled after fully booted os.  ...you must made something like orientation neutral animation....like rotating logo on center 😉  edit....badly written...you can made animation in landscape or portrait....but orientation is fixed Edited June 21, 2021 by CornholioGSM 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SchattengestaIt 559 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Make a landscape boot animation, rotate it with your favourite video editor and load it into your phone? That way it would be looking like landscape all the time... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MickH 211 Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) Some of the animation's for the N900 were good. However things were the other way with that device as it was landscape only. I had the Flux Capacitor from the BTTF Delorean. You could also have video wallpapers just by using a little trick with VLC. Edited June 21, 2021 by MickH Added extra info.

npatel1050 132 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 You might even want to delete the boot animation for faster boot time. Made a difference back in the cyanogen days but not sure if it still would Quote Link to post Share on other sites
