Thanks much appreciated!

no problem, if u need help making one just let me know

can you look at this please and see why it wont work..

Process is totally different to the g1 as the boot animation resides in a different place and is actually a collection ofpng images.
I haven't been able to get it working either i have tried rezipping the files after editing. Tried dropping the images into a zip without unzipping. Alwaysr results in a black screen. Maybe one of the guys who have got it going can help?

its not different for a g1 using a 2.1 rom.
problem is you have a folder called bootanimation within the zip, it should just be bootanimation.zip with part0, part1 and desc.txt
and the images are compressed within the zip, the zip should be set to store only

Hey i also want to make my own bootanimation. For this i search this short flash animation which was used on the google developer conference. All the small green androids who change their design.
Perhaps someone can help me, and i hope everyone understands what i try to say.

[THEME] I've found a decent theme for FroYo...

I took no part in the making of this theme!! It is the handy work of 928Droid!!
I love the features of 2.2, but I not really fond of the stock look so I did some searching and found a pretty nice theme. It was originally made for the Droid but with very minor tweaks will work on the Nexus.
Download MetaMorph version Here in the first post.
Use the MetaMorph version and don't apply the services sub-theme and it should work perfectly.
Grab a services.jar from another Nexus theme and push it to system/framework so you will have the white clock and notifications.
Looks cool! Very sleek.
A port of the Black Glass theme he did would be much appreciated!
I wanted to install it but I didnt think it would work on my nexus.
i cant figure out which theme that is grrrrr
Bump'd it. Links up. I MM'd this on top of Kang-O-Rama froyo. Worked fine. FC loop when it got to "phone". If this happens to you, just reboot, go back to MM and start where it left off...skipping "services"
Update.zip of this theme
Made an update.zip for you guys that dont want to get involved in Metamorphing

@JupiterDroid : thank you, it works, but I've just lost my language for all android UI. Now I just can choose between US and Spanish, while I need french
Any workaround for me to get french langage back?

He is already a member of xda so who knows...
How to change the location of the file on which theme is applied.
For instance, how to change the path from /system/app to /data/app?
Thanks
@928Droid
Where ever you are man...
Thank You for this theme , you got a very nice taste ...

Don't I install the bootanimation.zip through recovery?
I may have done it the hard way.. I edited the zip, renamed it to VZWbootanimation.zip I edited the innards to match the original zip file.
I tried adb pushing it and flashing it via recovery and neither worked :/
I can't try again until this weekend..
No problem buddy, whenever you get to it!
I noticed that the resolution of the .jpegs are 480 x 854, the DIncs is 480 x 800, could this be a reason it's not working?
No, I initially had it working with the original jpgs.. But it was jerky.
Later I reduced the pics to 400x800 png files, and reduced the color depth bit from 24 to 8, to resemble the specs of incredible's oem boot ani in hopes to smoothing-out the animation.
I hope to find the right combination...

U are right, some of these bootanimations are from another devices but there are others that fit in sensation screen.
I like this one in particular.

You have a very large collection of boot animations, but you really should make .gif files out of them and post them here so everyone can get a preview of them. Also for all those that want to see what they look like without having to install them on your device, just download the bootanimation and use Recognized Developer despotovski01's Boot Animation Factory to preview it on your computer. Or you cann just extract the files and use a image viewer to rapidly flip through the files. And for the bootanimations that are not scaled for the Sensation you just need to re scale all the images and then follow the instructions in the OP of despotovski01's thread to re zip the bootanimation then install it.
