Basic explanation of this bootanimation. Part0, first part of boot animation starts with N E X U S O N E being spelled out top and bottom, then flying multiple N E X U S O N E letters move from outside to inside being consumed by the "fire" in the middle. Then NEXUS ONE is morphed and twisted into the Image you see below. Second part is Red Flame edition of standard bootanimation. Refined this quite a bit to get the colors to really pop off on the N1 screen.
Enjoy.
bootanimation.zip push to /system/media and reboot

Nice work!!
Thanks man, Now I'm looking for a guide to make it into live wallpaper.
Hi,
I get the following message when trying to adb push:
"c:\android\tools>adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
failed to copy 'bootanimation.zip' to '/system/media/bootanimation.zip': Read-on
ly file system"
Anything to do about that so i have write permissions to /system/media??
Cheers,

Why not just put it in /data/local the boot animation binary looks there first and you don't have to remove your old boot animation.
either/or good point.

How would I go about pushing the file? I have the option to unzip but it saves it on the SD card. Am I doing something wrong?

I second this as I referred to this forum as to where to delete my custom boot animation from and ended up deleting the original one, (and the entire media folder.... i was drunk) but pushed it all back with the latest update (unzip vanilla update.zip and extract /system/media then in the same folder in cmd go: adb push media /system/media)
What`s with the blue version?
Is there anyway to create a ZIP file that will work as upgrade to add the bootanimation? I'm at work, without my microsd cable... Would like to just download from dropbox.
honestly.. when i saw the screenshot i just thought "ugly...".. then i installed it cause my current boot animation is worse lol
now.. i think: Awesome! Great work, really, looks perfect.

I'm sure I'm missing something silly, but I can't seem to get this to work. I appear to push the file successfully in recovery:

1260 KB/s (924773 bytes in 0.716s)
When I reboot I still have the same boot animation with CM 5.0.4.1
EDIT: I tried putting the file in system/media but now I have the "android" CM boot image in blue. No idea how that happened.

coming soon new ubuntu boot animation
so, some fine work being done up the android theme thread...
i saw this , and thought i would share it, and tell you guys how i finally managed to get it to work.... i got his copy of the nexus one boot animation, because it's the same resolution as our phones. i unzipped the download, and put the bootanimation.zip (NOT extracted) into my sdk tools folder.
if you even want to consider putting the old one back on, it would be wise to pull it first, then rename it something. the original sprint splash is located at /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
adb reboot recovery
*run custom recovery utility*
adb shell
# mount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
# rm /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
# exit
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
adb reboot
yes, you have to get rid of the copy in /system/customize/resource first, and if you just put the new one there, for some reason it doesn't work.
probably the same instructions for any boot animation you want. only in the future you could probably just do the adb push to /system/media, since you will have already have erased the interfering sprint splash.

what do you mean you're in a windowed mode? if you got any version other than the nexus version, the resolution is too small, and it probably won't fill the screen.
the nexus version should work just fine. just make sure you pull the bootanimation.zip out of the the download.
if it doesn't work, try downloading again. i had a problem originally, and i think that it may have just been a bad download or something
btw, i guess i missed this thread which details the whole process. my bad.

Anyone with a batch image re-sizer feel like scaling this to 480x800? It looks OK at this resolution but would look much nicer at EVO size.

i made it "HTC Evo 4G" instead of "incredible" and made a green version of it also.

It has to be one of the best Boot Animations I've seen.
Can someone make this into a live wallpaper?
If you want to use the CyanogenMod version remove the CM in the name of the file before you push!

It's not letting me unzip the .mp3, saying unknown format.

well you don't need root to push to your phone. so you can always push it afterwards.
the .mp3 zip won't uncompress. it keeps telling me that it's an unknown format.

you don't uncompress it. you just remove the .zip extension.
but as of now I can't get the audio to work correctly so its useless. i am going to pull the file now.
And also, the original is better than the CM version. the transitions are better.
Any way we can get it to show just red like the cyan version?
I'm running PMF v1.2 OTA version and can't seem to get this working. I've adb push'd the bootanimation.zip to /data/local with no luck and also to /system/media where PMF keeps it to no luck as well. Every boot I get a black screen till the OS is loaded. Anyone have any suggestions?
The only difference I can think of is that I did apply the OTA but that's lower level than the bootsplash...
Don't know if this helps or not, but here is the image as an animation. I have no idea how to make it where it can be used as live wallpaper.
(Rename .zip to .gif)
i hope someone will make a live WP with this.
Can this be used on EVO?

The reason why audio will not work is that the first folder (or only folder if not more than one) holding the images for the boot animation needs to be named android. and the Desc.txt should reflect the folder name android. So basically, part0 folder needs to be renamed to android. And in desc.txt part0 also needs to be renamed to android

Why not place it in /data/local ?
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
Placing it in system/media overwrites the original.
If placed in data/local you still have the option of deleting it and reverting back to original
just my opinion

Yep, true. When I originally posted the 'norm' was to overwrite system/media and I never got around to editing this - did not get much response from it anyhoo.
Was my first attempt and it isn't great. This one is a bit better and working on a new one with my 'bad bee'
bootanimation.zip
Edit -
Added new anims to OP and updated adb instructions for non rooters.
Nice Work
Found this boot animation soon after getting the transformer (about a month ago), while trying out different roms I somehow lost it. Today, I finally found it again...yeah! IMO this has to be one of the best animations out there. Thanks for your work on this......

You shouldn't have to mess with permissions. Just put your bootanimation.zip in /system/media just like the one that's already there and replace it.
^ Shift Faced
Don't forget to rename it the same as the one you are replacing. you can just pu old in the name of the original and leave it there and when the phone boots it will recognize the new bootanimation.zip. Abd if it doesn't work for some reason you can change the name back and you should be back to normal.
The problem I'm having is that every time if I try to place it there I get a system is read only folder error

Are you using root explorer? If you are when you have that file open at the top of the screen in a little box it says mount R/W tap that ,then try to paste the file in that folder.

Probably. I've never had to change the permissions myself. If you're using Root Explorer then mount r/w then long press on the file and choose Permissions. Change them to match below:

I actually just literally changed my boot animation back to the BIOS one after upgrading to CM7.1
Hook the Shift up to your computer with USB Debugging on
Have the boot animation you want on the root of the SD card called bootanimation.zip
Open up CMD, cd to where you have adb set up
From there do this
adb devices
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
To test it: adb shell bootanimation
Works for me everytime
