We always get a bit tingly inside when our readers showcase just how much they love Phandroid! Blueman101 from XDA Developers is one such reader that took it upon himself to take the Phandroid intro video and make it into an Android boot animation.
As I note in the video, he downloaded the clip using a YouTube downloader which resulted in the animation being thinner and shorter than the screen of whatever device you apply it to (in my case, the HTC EVO 4G). Unfortunately, that’s as pretty as it’ll get for now since the animation wasn’t originally designed for that screen size and resolution, but it’s still going to remain the second thing I’m greeted to every time I boot my device up.
Check out BlueMan101’s post at XDA by following this link where you can find the bootanimation.zip file. The steps you’ll need to take to apply the animation may differ from device to device, so take a swing at Google if you need to know how to do it for your specific device. Also be sure that your phone is rooted, otherwise you might not be able to apply it.
