Have you ever noticed an attractive animation on your friend’s Android
device or on web while booting? This is not a hard task to make your own or set
your own animation as your Android Device’s boot animation. In this tutorial we
are going to teach you two ways to use your own custom animation on your
Android device.
Before start with you need to have following things with you:
Using Android File Manager
This is the manual process to creating a custom animation in android device.
To create the custom animations with this method just go through the following
steps:
Download the custom animation and save it in your sd card with name
bootanimation.zip.
Open the root browser or File Manager and navigate to
/system/media/.
Here you’ll get your original
bootanimation.zip
file.
Now rename this file to something else let say
bootnaimation.zip1
by long press on it.
Now copy your custom animation file to this folder i.e. /system/media and
long press on it to set permissions. Mark the boxes as shown in the screenshot
below.
NOTE: Keep the file name as bootanimation.zip so that your system will
recognize it properly.
In case you want to switch back to your default animation just delete your
custom file and rename the original file back to bootanimation.zip.
Now just reboot your device and you will see your custom boot animation.
Using the boot animation app
You can download the boot animation app
here.
This is an automated process. To use this method, go through the following
steps:
Open the app and backup your current animation. Choose backup/restore option
from the menu that appears.
Locate your custom boot animation file with the name
bootanimation.zip
and tap on it to choose install.
After the installation is completed, reboot your device to see the custom
boot animation.
