changing Android Bootanimation and using TS7 in Portrait

[Sundypha]

Hello everybody,

where can I change or at least find the Bootanimation.

it's neither in /system/media/ nor the initlogo.rle as this is the static logo.

Is it possible to run the A13 in Portrait mode?

best regards

Looking at the source (android4.0/frameworks/base/cmds/bootanimation/BootAnimation.cpp), it looks like Android falls back to the default android+shine animation if /system/media/bootanimation.zip is not present. 

My guess is that you should be able to drop a valid bootanimation.zip file on the device and it should just work.

adb push \path\to\bootanimation.zip \system\media\bootanimation.zip

I have now verified that this does indeed work!
