Hello all,
I'd been looking for an Energy Star boot animation for my G3 for several days (I even pulled an all-nighter looking), and ended up determining that I would have to make it myself.

First of all, credit where credit is due:
I based my animation off of the one that galaxys3lover posted in this thread. I chose this one specifically because it was exactly half of the resolution of the G3, so scaling wouldn't be a problem. The Energy Star logo and the blue dude next to the text in the first part of the animation were taken directly from the S III animation and upscaled for use.

The font that I decided to use (which I found out after I began making the frames was the font used in the aforementioned thread) is named FixedSys and is available to download for free over at moviecorner.de.

The animation is at a resolution of 1440x2400, which means there will be a black bar 80 pixels tall on the top and bottom of the screen. The background being black makes these seams invisible.

Without further ado, the animation:



As seen above, I edited the animation to display the relevant information for the G3. Also, for the ROM bit, I put CM12 there, as I am running that on my phone. If you'd like for me to adjust this line, please reply to the thread and I'll try to get back to you in a timely fashion.

Installation:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BRICKING, EXPLODING, OR ANY OTHER MALFUNCTIONS YOU MAY ENCOUNTER AS A RESULT OF INSTALLING THIS BOOTANIMATION
BE SURE TO HAVE A CURRENT BACKUP READY, JUST IN CASE

Manual Installation:

1. Download the non-flashable zip.
2. Move the zip to your internal sdcard.
3. Back up your current bootanimation (located in the /system/media folder) using Root Explorer or the like.
4. Copy the g3biosbootanimation.zip to the /system/media folder, mount R/W to write to the folder.
5. Rename g3biosbootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip, and overwrite the previous bootanimation.zip
6. Set permissions to rw-r--r--, then reboot.

Flash Installation:
NOTE: This is the first flashable zip that I've made, and I have successfully flashed it onto my device. That being said, I cannot guarantee that it will flash properly for you. If you try this method and it does not work, please bring it to my attention, and I will try to correct the problem. AGAIN, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG WITH YOUR DEVICE!

1. Download the flashable zip.
2. Move the zip to your internal sdcard.
3. Reboot into recovery mode.
4. Flash the zip, reboot your phone, and enjoy.

One last note: I flashed this zip using TWRP; as such I have not tested its compatibility with CWM, so I do not know if it will work with that particular recovery software.

I hope you enjoy the animation.

Regards,
