android bootanimation

Question

I'm doing android porting ,

I wanna modify android framework to make boot animation loop infinitely

so I modified the 「desc.txt」 in the bootanimation.zip as following :

480 360 1 p 0 0 part0

I set loop value to 「0」 for infinitely loop , until boot completed.

but when system boot completed , it always stopped the boot animation , and enter the 「home app」.

could someone tell me how to make bootanimation loop infinitely.

"how can i" - This question lacks detail and is poorly worded, indeed. — Mateng, Jul 06 '11 at 23:55
boot animation path : /data/local , if there is no bootanimation.zip in this directory , it always uses default boot animation. — peterlawn, Jul 20 '11 at 03:08

i found the answer :

SurfaceFlinger.cpp

void SurfaceFlinger::bootFinished()
{
    const nsecs_t now = systemTime();
    const nsecs_t duration = now - mBootTime;
    LOGI("Boot is finished (%ld ms)", long(ns2ms(duration)) );  
    mBootFinished = true;

    //property_set("ctl.stop", "bootanim"); //mark this line
}

then you will see the boot animation loops forever.

by the way , remember to set the loop count in desc.txt to '0',

240 320 3

p 0 0 part0
