So i have a code developed where when some button from the app is pressed it should get displayed in the Textview with some Animation(to add some fun). Is it possible to have text animations in Textview or should i use Canvas or SurfaceView for drawing this aplhabets with animation?

Finally, after months of being MIA and somewhat around in between, I finally have some new releases together. I am still working on some more also so check back for updates.
My old thread containing boot animations is now but links to the downloads for those animations are included in this thread. In order to minimize confusion and also to give everyone the desired visual before downloading that I know so many of us enjoy previews are included for your ease of selection and enjoyment.
Many thanks go out to LiQuID, Ubrocked, GirLuvsDroid & everyone else who has helped with ideas, testing and promotion. Also, with my newest mods available I'd also just like to shout out a thanks to: cool saber, for his droid does original boot animation. In addition, I now have some fully original boot animations available with a few more to come shortly.
LiQuID Frozen Yogurt Users:
Also, in LiQuID's new release of 1.7 LFY, with each theme color available these boot animations will already be included in the download links for the themes ready to go, so LFY users of 1.7 after its release need NOT download these unless you want to switch them out or you are customizing with a different theme and of course if you want to use them and you are running an older version of LFY. With each preview that you see, in order to download the one you want simply click on the preview and you will automatically be linked to the download for that boo animation.
VERY IMPORTANT:
After downloading, for users that are not already familiar with this you will need to make sure that you rename the boot animation when ready to use to the name bootanimation.zip exactly as I have it spelled there and I do believe that it is case sensitive.
Also, if you are a newly rooted user or are not sure how to replace this I recommend using root explorer - and then follow these steps:
1.Rename file xyz.zip to bootanimation.zip
2.Copy or Move File
3.Go to System/Media
4.Select Read/Write setting
5.Paste and click OK to overwrite(possibly copy this to another directory for a bakup before overwriting or you will lose the bootanimation already in your phone)
6.Long press to generate menu and select permissions
7.Select rw-r-r or use all permissions
8.Select Read/Only setting
9.Reboot and Enjoy
Another option is to:
put the bootanimation.zip, using terminal into data/local ...
typing command:
#su
#cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local/
Keep the spaces it won't work without them also do not type the # symbols
# = superuser privileges
$ = no super user privileges
If anyone encounters any bugs, etc... or you just need a little more help on how to use these just post and I'll and I'm sure other users too, will be more than happy to do my/our best to correct any issues or assist in answering your questions.
I truly hope everyone enjoys and please consider donating (link at bottom) if you like my or LiQuID's hard work as we are facing possible eviction if we don't catch up on rent soon and can barely make it right now. If you can't we understand too and enjoy bringing you more enjoyment with your phones, we just ask if you can spare anything to please consider trying to help out a family in need.
I do not condone or run either of the following NSFW boot animations. I cannot be held responsible for any negative actions that may/will come as a result of anyone seeing these on your phone, be it your parents grounding you or your wife/gf slapping you or heaven forbid...kicking you in the groin. Use at your own risk.

If people would be so kind as to upload vids of there custom boots and maybe some links to download that would be super fantastic of you!

Im thinking it has something to do with the weather, because it is cloudy. Im not complaining, its cool im just wondering if its killing the battery faster, because its always doing it on every unlock.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWatching the same transition animations over and over is boring. You can speed them up with Spare Parts or you can just shut them off entirely within settings. There is, though, a third road: change 'em. These are videos of most of the transition animations packs (Drod's rubiX animations, Fab's animation mix, and Android Stock have no videos at present).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been searching around the forums for some custom boot animations, and I noticed that there is not one consolidated thread for all of these animations. So, I thought I would start this thread where everyone can post their custom animations. I just rooted my Droid, and I am looking for the default eye animation and the nexus one boot animation. I would love to see all the custom boot animations everyone has made.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just wanted to let you all know I have started working on some different boot animations and was wondering if there were any that people wanted created specifically? At the moment I only have two completed they are on my blog. Feel free to try them out the Hello kitty one is horrible honestly but the Optimus prime one isn't to bad. Feel free to request some or give me some tips or pointers.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm living in Austin, TX. New to Droid ownership. Just bought an ERIS. My favorite standard feature was the large, Weather Channel animations. However, the rest of the phone was faulty and I had to have it replaced with a "refurbished" phone. Now the large weather animations have disappeared. Puny, smaller animations remain.Does this have something to do with Google's preferences. Can I get the more robust animations back?

I defined some complex AnimationSet in xml and would like to run it on several Views (View.startAnimation()). i cannot just create one instance of this AnimationSet (using AnimationUtils.loadAnimation()) and use it as parameter of View.startAnimation(), so i have to create several instances of this AnimationSet. since loading it from xml is rather slow operation, is there a way to load it once and then clone it when needed?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to run six animations simultaneously (each animation simulates a roll of dice, each dice is a custom text view) and at the end of those animations, I need to get back the number of each roll. As each animation changes the number of each dice five times (to simulate the roll), I want to wait that each animation has ended to calculate the sum of each roll. I tried to regroup in one the six animations (so that with an animation listener, I would have been able to wait the end of the animation) but I didn't manage it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been looking around in the framework source and I can get my head around some things. For instance, in the ScrollView, the animated scrolling is done by using computeScroll(). To make the screen redraw (and thus call computeScroll() again), postInvalidate() is used. Why is that one used, instead of a regular invalidate-call?
Secondly, I wonder some things about the Animation framework. I know how a ViewGroup is responsible for animating the children (modifying the Canvas and so on), but what drives the animation, i.e. what makes the screen redraw over and over again? In the case of the ScrollView, it's the call to postInvalidate() made from computeScroll(), but what is it in the case of an Animation?
I'm developing chess game for Android (androidchess.appspot.com). If I want to add animations, should I use custom View extending Canvas (I do this now), or custom View extending SurfaceView?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to save an animation that I wrote in android in gif format. I know how to take screenshot but is there any possibility to capture an anmation?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am at a stage where I can understand and write a decent Android application. At this stage, I am still not comfortable with SurfaceHolder, Canvas, View invalidate() etc. I don't have a CS background so I must've missed these from a CS Graphics course or something.
Starting directly with Android seemed like a bad idea because there are not many examples out there. And sometimes I am getting things done, but I don't understand what the heck is going on. For instance, there are a few dangling observations. Calling invalidate() from within a view calls its onDraw method but from outside it doesn't do anything and I don't know why this is happening. I know SurfaceHolder can be a powerful thing but I don't know how to use it.
For an absolute beginner to be able to handle this stuff, what are the resources one should follow? Is it animation basics or screen rendering or something else altogether? I mean, it cannot be the case that Android guys invented these concepts right? They must be similar to something out there which has some tutorials already. My end goal is to put myself in a position where I can write some simple custom views that can animate themselves and use some basic physics to react to touch events.
i tried to use my popupWindow with some enter/exit animations - it has setAnimationStyle() method for that purpose. after some time i realized i cannot use my own custom animation styles which is ok but a bit limiting. so i tried system ones: R.style.Animation_Toast works ok, but R.style.Animation_Dialog doesn't. looking at xml definition files i found that Toast animation uses simple alpha animation and Dialog animation is a set of alpha combined wit scale animation. is it a problem for WindowManager to deal with complex animations?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am wondering how to use custom in/out animations for a ViewAnimator, such as the 3d flip animation in the ApiDemos. Details below in case you have the time to read.
The following methods:
animator.setInAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.fade_in));
animator.setInAnimation(this, R.anim.fade_in);
Require that I use the animation as a XML resource but the documentation says the XML only takes "<alpha>, <scale>, <translate>, <rotate>, interpolator element, or <set>" as the root element. So it seems to indicate that you cannot use a custom animation as an XML resource?
I also tried:
animator.setInAnimation(new AlphaAnimation(0.0f, 1.0f));
Which doesn't seem to work (no animation happens just plain cut).
I am using overridePendingTransition method to do custom Activity animations, i would like to know when the animation ends ( a callback/listener ). Is there any direct way of achieving this, if not please suggest me some work around.
