Boot animation changer - Collection of boot animations

I didn't like the darkmatter 4.7 boot animation which was pretty much plain, so I came with this idea of a boot animation changer. It is compatible with Android x86 distros that use either bootanimation.zip or bootanimation-after-first-boot.zip, both. I deleted this resource earlier because I had to fix bugs and make it compatible with other android x86 distros. Now its back with fixed bliss mod animation, fixed loading circle animation, added another page to add more animations, added...

Hi
First of all I'd like to thank you for your interest in our boot animation changer.
Yeah I'll watch if I find that, thanks for that. This extension is open source and you can modify as you want, yeah I'd like to talk in depth about this matter. Thanks

xtttt updated Boot animations+Cursors with a new update entry:

Added some cursors and block other os from changing cursors

Added cursors, purple, and cyber
AXON gave me code to check if its darkmatter and now cursor can be changed only on darkmatter, will cause bootloop if used on other Android-x86 distros because it modify system files.
Which means abstergo cant use our extension :)
But boot animations can be changed on other os, only cursors cannot be changed.

Why only on DM 😥
Will it be available on other distros in future???
Boot animations can be changed on other distros,
But to change cursor we have the replace the framework in /system/framework/framework-res.apk. To change it on other distros we have to make frameworks for all other distros, unfortunately this is an limitation of android. But you can make cursors by yourself and put in the framework-res of the distro you want, and also sign the apk with uber signer or else it wont boot.
Hope that explains
But if you have some other popular android x86 distro tell us, and we will make cursors for it.

Just signing the apk isn't enough(easy to automate). I've told you already.
You will need to disable-sigcheck by patching decompiled framework(services.jar and a few others) smali as well .. which is hard to automate when it comes to patching multiple android-versions from a single patch-set.

Xtr updated Boot animations+Cursors with a new update entry:

Boot animation+cursors 1.6

Boot animation+cursors 1.6 released​

  • Lightning gave me 4 cursors, ilhan gave one animation, that’s all they did. It’s me who spent many hours making this, testing throughout, made the framework res patching etc.
Now it doesn’t replace whole system framework, it instead patch it with new cursor png so now it can change cursor in any Android x86, it’s size reduced from 120mb to 70mb.

Finally you can say goodbye to the black ugly cursor in stock android...

Ok i have a question kind of a long these lines ive had it for awhile and have recently been experimenting with a solution. Now im not a gamer ..i more love darkmatter for all the great tinkering and development factor that the community has accomplished.
With that said ive been trying to finish a new/modified OS for my own personal use. In modifying a previous system there is one problem i keep encountering which involves the framework.apk... ive found no info online
Ive been trying to modify the default wallpaper ...
So i go into framework and swap out the defaultwallpaper.jpg or what under {$folderwithdefault} ... I am simply using 7zip with may be the issue.. when framework.apk is back together.. the previous wallpap has been deleted and switched out bit shouldnt exist one would think.. but upon boot some how the new wallpaper isnt there the old default still is. Is there possibly another local resourcd where it is being stored and being symlinked from typically? Wallpaperchanger under default /apps maybe? Is this typical?

It is nessasary to decompile, recompike, and resign even just replacing only that one file with one with the same name?

Just drag and drop new files to the framework res.apk and replace with 7-zip, do not extract it, it will mess up the APK.
If it doesn't boot then just sign the apk with Uber signer.
By the way, my friend and co author of this extension, @ilhan know how to change wallpapers.

Xtr updated Boot animations+Cursors with a new update entry:

Cursor pack

New features are as follows:
Now you can add your own cursors-Add to the menu or try them, it took me hours to make that function
Now it has 23 cursors (Thanks to NM akshar and Devplayz who gave cursors), work on any OS
reduced size to under 200kb
Note: use old version for boot animations, in this version boot animations are removed to make it lightweight
Auto update cursors( upcoming)
Now you cant break the system by restoring backup without having backup
Various bug fixes
Coming in next...
