Requesting simple summary of steps required to modify boot animation

stillgoing

Hello:

This post is somewhat related to the "Prolong Android boot animation / boot video" posting, am hoping to get some more basic information lissing from that post.

I am attempting to modify the boot animation for the RK3288.

More specifically, modify the boot animation in the RK3288 source tree for inclusion in the subsequent build / flash process.

To the best of my understanding this minimally would involve a modification of bootanimation.zip.

I've found the bootanimation files in ~project/firefly-rk3288/frameworks/base/cmds/bootanimation, and various info on google on how to modify a boot animation file.

But I can not find bootanimation.zip anywhere.

Would it be possible to get a simple, bullet-item list of the steps, files, and file locations required to modify the (Android) boot image in a freshly-downloaded RK3288SDK? I expect this would only take a few lines of text, and it would be extremely helpful.

Thank you.

Thank you for the reply, this was helpful.

One more question on this topic: is the bootanimation.zip file to be placed in

frameworks/base/cmds/bootanimation/

...or some other folder?

Thanks for the response, the link you provided contained a lot of very useful information.

I understand what you mean regarding placement of the bootanimation.zip in the file system after the firmware is built.

But where would the bootanimation.zip file reside in the AOSP source tree if I wanted to include it in the firmware build, as opposed to placing it in system/media after the firmware has been built?
