Customizing the Boot Animation

The FAMOCO devices support boot animation customization. Follow the steps below to personalize your devices.

Step 1 - How to create your boot animation

1. Create a new directory called “bootanimation”

2. In the new directory

   • Create an empty file called “desc.txt”
   • Create directories for each sequence in your animation. You can call them “partX” with X being a number (part0, part1…)
     

3. Place your PNG files in the sequence directories (partX), in their correct order:

   • 00.PNG
   • 01.PNG
   • 02.PNG
   • ...

4. Fill the desc.txt with the following information :

   [px width] [px height] [Frame per second]
    p [number of repetition]   [pause time in second] [sequence directory] 
    {p [number of repetition] [pause time in second] [sequence directory]}
   
   - here is an example
   - 320 480 5
   - p 1 10 part0
   - p 0 10 part1
   

5. Create a none-compressed zip archive (STORE mode) of the bootimage directory: 

   zip -r -0 ./bootanimation.zip *
   

Step 2 - How to install and display

1. To install your boot animation: adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
2. To play your boot animation: adb shell bootanimation
