{{lowercase}}
'''animate''' (Package ID: <code>org.chronic-dev.animate</code>) is a software bundled in [[greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n RC5]] that enables users to display (a sequence of) PNG images on boot.

This approach has the advantage of being usable on all devices, regardless of their ability of [[0x24000 Segment Overflow|accepting custom firmware]], and supporting animated boot logos.

[[Applelogo|The original boot logo]] will always show first.

== Notes for logo designers ==
The animation currently runs at about 5 frames per second.

A picture of the Apple logo is available at http://yfrog.com/gzqigp

Animations must be stored in png format in [[/Library]]/BootLogos/(animationName)/ and be listed in order, from 0.png to x.png.

Packages containing (animated) logos should depend on <code>org.chronic-dev.animate</code>.

You can get a custom bootlogo made for you more info at [[http://www.theiphonewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=CLAnimate]]

== Conflicts ==
'''animate''' conflicts with the package '''ImageMagick''' (Package ID: <code>imagemagick</code>). It has to be removed in order to successfully install '''animate'''.

== Installation ==
The '''animate''' tweak has been released on Cydia but it is invisible for some reason. To install it, search and install a package named ''Apple boot logo'' ('''animate''' is a dependency). After the installation, a new tab will appear in the [[:/var/stash/Applications.*****/Preferances.app|Settings app]] named ''BootLogos''. Anyone having trouble keeping settings should be sure that /Library/BootLogos/ is chown mobile:mobile. Sometime uninstalling all boot animation packages and reinstalling fixes this issue.
