    [bootanimation] GreenGlowingXoom

    Just made my first boot animation for the Xoom using a background by BigDX found here.

    How to Install Using Root Explorer
    1. Download the boot animation file
    2. Rename to bootanimation.zip
    3. Using Root Explorer, copy bootanimation.zip to /data/local (make sure to rename existing file to bootanimation_bak.zip)

    How to Install Using ADB
    1. Download the boot animation file
    2. Rename to bootanimation.zip
    3. Copy to your "Tools" folder that contains adb commands
    4. Open Command Prompt and enter the command below

    Code:
    adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
    Then to test:
    Code:
    adb shell bootanimation
    From a few threads on XDA Developers, if you use ADB you supposedly do not need root access to change the boot animation. I'm rooted so can't confirm. Those threads say to use the same commands above to push files to your Xoom, then test.

    Animated preview:


    Version 0.9 (June 3, 2011) No underlying text - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VS5HMV7C

    Version 1.0 (June 6, 2011) Embossed text under "XOOM" - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5YBCK2FX

    To return to the stock boot animation, just remove or rename the .zip in /data/local and the system will default back to the stock one in /system/media provided you have not changed it in there.

    If you feel the need to save the current bootanimation.zip file in that folder before copying over, use this command to pull it into your SDK /tools folder, rename it, then copy the new one into it to push it onto the Xoom.

    Code:
    adb pull /system/media/bootanimation.zip bootanimation.zip

    Added embossed "XOOM" text under glowing text
    Changed glow around "XOOM" to get a better fade in/out

    That is possible, along with a red one after I get it to where I really want it. I guess you could say this is more of a beta release 1.

    wow this is awesome I really am not liking the honeycomb startup these days which shows off graphic ability but annoying in a dark room.

    Is there a Windows app you use to create the animation and then split it into the gif files? Or are yinz using Photoshop and hacking an image at a time?

    My copy attempt must not have taken and probably pasted an old one. Should be fixed now. If not: MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service
