This is just something I threw together for fun, after reading one too many posts of people complaining of boot loops and other problems when flashing different ROMs and kernels. It starts with the normal Nexus One bootup sequence, then halts at a BSOD message.

To install the animation, rename the file to bootanimation.zip and adb push to /data/local
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
Check out Random Boot Animations if you want to use multiple boot animations.
Update Notes:
v2.1 - Fixed typo in blue screen
v2 - Increased resolution of X animation, revised BSOD to an Android-related message,including a reminder on how to access the Bootloader.
v1 - Initial release.
Haha love it! I will have to show my co-workers this one.
Haha, nice work! I think this is a great idea. I'll try it when i get home!
Lol nice! How do you apply it and how can i backup my current one?
Thanks
how do I flash this? I tried through recovery but I got a verification failed.
sweet works great with random boot animation script
No one wants to answer because we have to search or they dont know themselves. im sure its a half/half. Little do they know they knew nothing at one point...
It's in system/media and named BootAnimation.zip. Use a file manager to copy it/rename it and then move the new animation in. You can push it from a laptop as well, but I never bothered remembering the commands for adb. A quick search really would have answered your questions. :]
you can push it to /data/local/bootanimation.zip
if you don't want it anymore, delete it and your original is untouched
Just ran it then, looks cool. But why is the X so low res?

Sorry, I was in a rush when posting this, and didn't have time to get back to this forum until a few days later. I've updated OP with installation instructions.

If you push the file to /data/local as in the instructions, your original bootanimation (which resides in /system/media) will not be overwritten. However, if you have another boot animation already at /data/local, you can make a copy of that before overwriting it with this one.

This was just a quick hack thrown together for laughs. The problem is that the final screen needs to be at 480x800 in order to have a blue background. That means the rest of the images will also need to be at that ratio. The original X animation was done at 512x256, and if I rescaled it to 480x800 the animation lags a bit on my phone. So what I did was to downscale it to 240x400, which is why it appears low-res.
If people are actually interested in this I can experiment a bit to see what is a good compromise between speed and resolution.
OP is updated with V2 of the animation! If you liked the first one, you should definitely get this.

This was one of the first things i put together for the HTC incredible. I did not make the imgs. I just packaged them so they would work as a boot animation. Enjoy

Once the dancing android shows up in boot it will loop there and not go back to the "Incredible" part again.
Added the files to XDA so the links will never go down again.
** You need to rename the zip to bootanimation.zip **
I just want to say i did not make the img files. i just made them into a boot animation for the droid incredible.
Very cool !!!!!! thank you.................
I installed this update in recovery twice but it did not change my boot animation... I have unrevoked forever. I didn't get an error or anything.
Thanks!

This is not an update. you need to push the file to where ever your bootanimation.zip is being held.
With skyraider its under system/media folder.
what ROM are you using and do you have root on your incredible?
can you attach .zip here? the link broken..
is this 480x800?
thanks
Since I stumbled onto the dance Droid I have not changed it. Except back to dance Droid after a 4lRom flash

Here is an animation I made based off of the OSX boot up. Put in /system/media to install it. Make sure permissions are rw-r--r-- for the zip.. or jsut copy the permissions for the original bootanimation.zip in Root Explorer.

Any way you can make a splash screen that looks like this but without the loading circle? That would be amazing and it would look like a Mac when you first boot (no circle then the circle would come in later just like a mac).

Wont make it flashable, currently it is a universal boot animation that works on both AOSP and Sense ROMs, making it flashable would require setting specifics for AOSP based ROMs and Sense based stuff. And no offense. But I dont give a d**n about Sense.

My guess is you extracted and copied the bootanimation.zip to the supposed location? If yes, then:
1. Make sure the file is named correctly (must same as the original file you are going to overwrite)
2. Setting the right permission
As shown here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16154535&postcount=6
Try this and see if it works.

It's not a compressed zip file. It's just storage. Then you'll have to copy it to system/customize/resource after you've renamed the one that's in there. (something like bootanimation.zip.old) Then hit paste and set permissions to match your old one. Reboot & check out your handiwork.

I COMPLETELY forgot about the original Android animated boot image. Here we go.
Hello All!
I was trying to flash bhundven's Blastoff Kernel. For some reason it caused system wide force closes.
I'm really not that worried about it, I was just playing around, but what I'm mainly interested in is the bootanimation that the kernel put on my phone.
It actually had two. The first was this sweet team acid logo, followed by the rom installed unicorn (I'm on Valhalla Final).
Does anybody know....
A. How could I obtain that team acid bootanimation?, and
B. How could I place the obtained bootanimation in front of my current one so I could have both?
I currently am using a cool green bios bootanimation I found in the forums.
Thanks All!

That was the image I was looking for. However what I'm trying to do is put the team acid part of the bootanimation(part 0) in front of my bootanimation I'm currently using.
Is that possible? I'm sure it is just a matter of editing the text file that comes in the boot animation zip, I just don't know how to do it.....

thanks coop your the man! I read a thread on boot and shutdown animations but I just couldn't get it...and I have too much going to to take the time out right how.
I attached my current bootanimation. In the interest of clarity, I would like the team acid logo portion of the boot animation gfx myst attached above (part 0) in front of my boot animation I just attached. Mine has two parts also, I like part 0 from mine too. That's why I couldn't figure it out. I was trying to take part 0 from myst animation, rename it to part 1 and copy it to mine. Didn't work. Once again, thanks!

I think you should know that if your boot animation is longer then the time it takes to boot to android it WILL cut the animation short. Be aware even if he gets it working it might not show the animation properly. There has been requests to slow boot times so the animation shows and well the devs and most people have laughed. I think there is a tool out there that will allow you to create a live wallpaper from bootanimations but I have no idea where to look. I vaguely remember people talking about it.
Thanks for the info man. I try to soak up as much as possible.
I'm pretty sure it will work. I'm currently using a 2 part bootanimantion, I'm just trying to delete one part from each and then merge the remainder.
We'll see.
Either way, good input and thanks!
In my experience, it has finished the boot animation for me... anyways I will work on at and should have it working by Sunday... I have school and stuff so yeah.
