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.

Same here Tim, repost? I've actually been looking for this one.
Btw my custom boots have been working by just replacing the bootanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource. But mine didn't have sound I don't think, I wonder if that has anything to do with it

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.
here is my version of the incredible boot animation.
i made it "HTC Evo 4G" instead of "incredible" and made a green version of it also.
i attached the files.

I tried the red one, but it just shows from Droid. Doesn't show the little green robot with your modified HTC EVO 4G. =[ Just starts from Droid.

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

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.

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.
Hi at all,
today I'll show my Boot Animation (Ubuntu Like) for Nexus One and other Android devices.

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.

i'm not going to root my phone until after the 2.2 OTA is released at the end of the month. any way i can get a zip with the bootanimation and mp3 to push to my phone?

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

I could have sworn I tried that. But I will try again later tonight if I remember. Or if you can get working, we'd all much appreciate it!
Try these with whatever audio file you have/want.
This is my first post here. I quite fancied the idea of making a custom boot animation for my Nexus One. Since then, a few mates have asked if they can have it, so I thought I'd post it here.
I don't really want to put together a .gif as I made each section of the animation separately, so it'd take me too long, but there's a video on YouTube if you search "Nexus One Pro" (I'm a noob, so not allowed to post external links yet)
There's also a 320x480 version on my site for Hero users etc, though I've not tried it on anything other than my N1. I'll come back when I'm beyond padawan status and post the link for that one!
Hoipe you like, any feedback, let me know
Of course you'll need root to install, use a command prompt and go to the tools folder of your Android SDK, (where you should place the bootanimation.zip file) while in USB debugging mode. Type:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/
press enter, let it do it's thing, then reset your phone

@Amritttt - I'm not sure how much you already know, so here it is broken down...
1. You'll need to root your phone first. Won't go into that as there are plenty of instructions about.
2. Install the android SDK to your pc at c:\AndroidSDK
3. Save the bootanimation.zip file inside the folder c:\AndroidSDK\tools. (If you download more than one bootanimation to the same folder, your pc may change it to something like bootanimation(1).zip - you need to delete the (1)!)
Connect your phone and enable USB debugging.
Open a command window (on Windows just push start and type "cmd").
Navigate to the SDK tools folder by typing:
cd c:\androidsdk\tools
press enter
4. Check your device is recognised, by typing:
adb devices
press enter
5. Copy over the bootanimation by typing:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/
6. Finally, reset your phone, and it should be there
Nice work, looks great

I push it to /system/media
and with "reset" you mean restart
Btw I have a request! I would like to have a bootanimation with the arrows only like you see in the video at 0:37
only the arrows, without android on top of it
Is it possible for you to do that?

Sure, do you mean leave "Android" out for the whole thing, or just when the arrows are raining down? (i.e. do you want it to show "Android" at the end when the X comes across just after the arrow rain?)

Nexus One Retail Boot Animation - (ICS) Revised
What is it?
This is a modified CM5 boot animation, which itself is a modified version of the stock boot animation that the retail Nexus One devices have been shipped with.
What i changed?
To match my idea of an ICS version of the stock animation, i removed the CM Logo from the CM5 boot animation and made slightly changes to the base color to match the correct blue used in ICS.

How does it look?
Basically this is a stock Nexus One boot animation - with a touch of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Part0 of Boot animation:
Part1 of Boot animation (actual loop):
How to use?
To use it, use ADB to push the attached ZIP onto your device as follows:
Backup original
Code:
adb pull /system/media/bootanimation.zip
Push new
Code:
adb remount
adb push /local/path/to/bootanimation_passion_ics.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
adb reboot
NOTE:
If you use a file explorer to copy files, or type in the commands (instead of c+p), make sure you change the name of the ZIP from bootanimation_passion_ics.zip to bootanimation.zip! The boot script is looking for /system/media/bootanimation.zip. If you have /system/media/bootanimation_passion_ics.zip (or anything else) it won't work!
UPDATE / MIUI MTZ VERSION
At request i created a mtz version of the boot animation. I've never used MIUI and never came accross this mtz file format before. All i did was following the suggestion i found here on XDA; Open an existing mtz file with 7zip and replacing the zip. I did not tested that version. Please let me know if it works.
Very cool! How long did that take you?

all together, round about half an hour
Very nice thanks.
I tried this last night and it didn't work
I downloaded the file, I used RootExplorer to removed the stock boot animation from the folder you suggested (running ICS ROM) and then I placed the new zip you created into the said folder.
When I reboot, my new boot animation (it did change) is a simple "Android" that has a silver "flash" look as if its shimmering.
Any suggestions?

First idea: Have you changed the name of the ZIP from bootanimation_passion_ics.zip to bootanimation.zip (maybe you forgot it, as you used a root explorer rather than copy the commands)? The boot script is looking for /system/media/bootanimation.zip. If you have /system/media/bootanimation_passion_ics.zip (or anything else) it won't work.

@ Bexton.
Hi. Jus downloaded ur bootanimation and renamed it using ES file explorer as u sed.in my phone I didnt find bootanimation in /system/media, instead was in /system/bin. So i removed that and placed ur bootanimation in that place. Nw when i rebooted i jus see X and no animation while booting.
Wat am i doing wrong.

A) What phone model is it?
B) Have you tried to place the zip into /system/media anyway? And if not, what happens when you try that?

A. Nexus one (ch3ky's oxygen1mod)
B. Yea i placed it /system/media . Still its the same. No animations.
I tried it in /system/bin. No change again.
PS: The default bootanimation that i removed from /system/bin had no extension. I even tried to place it back as it was originally. Still the same mate

I can't find the oxygen1mod sources right away. but some roms will need the file in /local/data/bootanimation So you could try:
Code:
adb shell mkdir /data/local/bootanimation
adb push bootanimation_passion_ics.zip /data/local/bootanimation
adb reboot
Alternatively i found this thread, that might help (your ROM needs init.d support for that solution!) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=641189
Tried as u sed. But still the same.
Dev asked to jus place it in /system/media. No effect for that aswell.
While trying for this i once removed the bootanimation file from /system/bin and placed it later. Could that be the issue???

Looks awesome! Any chance you can make a .mtz version of it?

I've updated 1st post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21054340&postcount=1
Works perfectly for me, thank you !
That's exactly what I was looking for!! Thanks! ... I dont like the boot animation that comes with my actual ROM....
@Bexton: Thank you for the animation file. I did hit the Thanks button . I assume that I will have to push the revised bootanimation every time I flashed a new ROM, right?
Very very nice thank u
