Custom Boot animation slows, freezes and crashes phone I've created a custom boot animation:


Create animation with Blender, render all the frames 1080 x 1920, PNG.
Convert them to JPG.
Store frame 0 to 123 to folder part0, store frame 124 to folder part1.
Create desc.txt with content (every line ends with &lt;LF&gt;):

1080 1920 24
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

Store all that into bootanimation.zip (mode: Store), almost 10 MB.
Copy it onto the SD card and copy it to /system/media/ with TWRP.


When I reboot the phone, it displays the animation okay, but then slows down (still during the first loop), halts, and reboots after a few seconds.

Is there anything I've done wrong? The phone is a Fairphone 2, running Fairphone Open with the newest TWRP and encrypted data partition.
For me, the solution was to shrink the frames by half (540*960) but leaving the description text as it was – it seems that it just was too much data.
