Hello Alvin, Thank you for the information, its helping me in great.
1> With respect to Boot animation , I have placed the bootanimation.zip in source/vendor/bootanimation/bootanimation.zip. In my "device.mk" , i added the "PRODUCT_COPY_FILES" PRODUCT_COPY_FILES += \ $(LOCAL_PATH)/path/to/bootanimation.zip:system/media/bootanimation.zip But, when device boots up, i am neither getting default android animation nor the one placed by me, ie bootanimation.zip i am getting completely black screen, during the boot up, then the home screen appears after completion . 2. With respect to initlogo.rle. I am trying this in 7inch tablet, having 480x800 resolution. I used the same image having 480x800 resolution . still i am getting, two images side by side, covering half screen. Please suggest me regarding the same. Regards. Shivanagouda.
