Visuals:
- Startup: On an orange background, a green circle grows from the bottom with the white text "free from hassles" in it, followed by another above with "free from counting". The background changes to white as a green "k" appears moving at the bottom left of the screen to off-center. The rest of the word "cric et" in black fades in-between as radial semi-circles emerge next to the "k".
- Shutdown: The Cricket logo is shown on a green background. Then it spins rapidly into the screen as a radial blur emerges from it, covering up most of the screen. The screen fades to black.
Variants: On Samsung’s line of Cricket phones, the Samsung logo would fade in after the shutdown animation.
Technique: 2D animation.
Audio:
- Startup: Eight clanging ascending notes, followed by a two-note atmospheric synthesizer with a bell tune.
- Shutdown: Another bell tune, with a descending synthesizer and then the clanging notes in reverse order, based on the startup theme.
Availability: Seen on Cricket phones from the late 2000’s;those to be the earliest ones.
