Figured that this is pretty simple, and that the majority of you guys can do this, but I pulled the bootanimation.zip out of the 2.2 rom that's floating around, and put it here by itself.
Place it in /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
Haven't found a prettier boot screen yet.

I need to do that via adb push correct? Can you give me the code so I don't screw it up? I'm fresh into Android from WinMo.
Thanks!
PS- That's the same directory where the crappy boot music is too right? Can I just erase or rename the music file to have it be silent at boot?
yes code please adb push something

Gonna have to try this one out
why didn't this just get posted in one of the several boot animation threads there already is?
if you had read those, you'd see that not only is the original nexus bootanimation IN that thread already, but there's also a modified version that looks a little better on this screen, despite the fact that they're the same resolution.

Cool boot screen. It's customized for the Droid though as it states "Motorola Droid" and lists the processor as Omap.
Tried this in recovery (guessing since you don't have system rw access in nominal ops). Now it seems to not have worked, I copies it fine with
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
Unless I am doing something wrong, which I am sure I am. Hints?

I know the Nexus and the Evo have the same resolution, but why are the bootscreens from the Nexus in 512x256 resolution and the stock Evo one in 480x800? I've been trying to find the STOCK Nexus boot, hoping it's 480x800 so it works perfectly, but all I've seen is 512x256.

I have already tried converting an image to .rgb565 format (which was needed on the G1) and it didn't work, and there was another thread a while back about trying to unyaffs the splash.img or whatever from a dump and it wouldn't work, so for now, I don't think there is a way to do it.

I believe they made this one non changable so people couldn't unlock their bootloader and then flash the original image back on showing it was still locked.
That's a guess though.

I was thinking it may have been something like that. Don't want anyone making their phone unable to reach the bootloader screen and only show a locked splash image lol.
I think since the bootloader is S-ON, we cant use as many fastboot commands as S-OFF. I forgot how to check what partitions are available within a particular bootloader, but for sure splash1 and splash2 aren't present.

No i already made a cool boot animation, im talking about the static X you see before the boot animation.
possible yet?
is this still impossible or has someone figured out a way to do this yet?
Still impossible.
First things first. Make a backup.
Now, here are a few of my boot animations made as a simple update.zip. You NEED to be rooted, and just apply these in bootstrap recovery as a .zip and they *should* work.
****EDIT*** I updated all the mega uploads on the first page.. If there is no link, its because i lost the file when i erased off megaupload, and I NEED somebody to email me the files of whoever had
the Rick Roll
Star Wars
Blue lightning
Bed Intruder.
If you have those files, please PM me.

This is a update.zip. Just apply with bootstrapper or equivalent.

Yes, that started a little after the 2.2 update for me though. It did become more prevalent with my new animations, but after a full 2.2SBF (which i performed to clean out my phone, and start anew) that just came out, on the first boot, the original animation stayed on the screen.
This one was a small request, this takes the rotten apple I found and mixes it to the Blue Lightning Droid X eye. Intalls as a update.zip through bootstrap.

Hi everyone. I just recently bought an infuse after leaving tmobile and going with at&t and was wondering if anyone has/ knows how to put custom boot animations on the infuse? I had one on from Dysgenic on my MyTouch slide and it tried it on the infuse but it doesnt work. Any ideas?
How exactly did you try it? Did you throw bootanimation.zip into /system/media ?
it uses a proprietary .qmg file, nobody has successfully made a custom one. support for bootanimation.zip needs to be written into the kernel. we really need a kernel dev.
sounds and shutdown animations on the other hand should be simple
i killed off those files, to atleast get rid of the att logo thing. instead of defaulting to the android default animation, like any other phone would, its just black. dont really care though. although i imagine when we get proper roms going, we will have it switched back to bootanimation.zip.
I have a custom boot animation working using the Captivate work-around (replace playlogo and playlogos1 with bootanimation). It only shows up for the last two seconds before going to the lockscreen, but it works. We won't be seeing proper support until a kernel developer gets working on it.

do you write a script into those files that reads the boot animation or just name the boot animations playlogo and playlogos1? i think eugene373 and the early lagfix's used those to run user scripts untill kernels were developed that supported init.d scripts

So on the Infuse you were able to successfully able to get rid of the boot animation? I don't wanna see my world, delivered, hehe.
@dani897: I just copied bootanimation twice and renamed them playlogo and playlogos1 (backups made, of course). Personally, a black screen with a second or two of Honeycomb boot animation at the end is better than the AT&T animation. I haven't done a lot of research on the topic of QMG/zip boot animations though.
i know there are kernel mods to do it properly, was wondering if there was a dirty hack job way to do it. i never knew that worked at all just renaming the files like that.
anybody have the stock boot animations for something like the galaxy s2?
If you want to get geeky with your boots animation try live dmesg by chainfire in market.

Just wondering if anyone has figured out how to change the names of the images or add images to /mnt/.lfs so you can have a custom start up screen. I have the SGS4G and I highly dislike the tmobile splash screen that comes up. I am not talking about the boot screen as I know how to change that. I have tried renaming and adding a different pic with the same name as the one that is used, but nothing ever changes. I have tried with droid explorer, I tried with an update.zip and pushing with CW in recovery mode, I have tried pushing with terminal emulator, I have tried pushing with adb, and I have even tried just copy and paste with Super Manager. Any suggestions?
Look up a bootanimation tutorial. You can only use this on Froyo since there's no kernel supporting it for GB yet.
Are you referring to the pink screen or the splash before?? I know that the mobiletechvideo guy figured out how to change for a few galaxy phone's first boot screen.

Its josh at mobiletechvideos.com... He's got links for vibrant and sgs II..
with the vibrant, you have to flash/Odin a param that erased the tmobile/att file then manually push new .jpg file in.

Hey guys, waiting for my phone to mail in...meanwhile I made some splash screens. Enjoy!
Version 1

Version 2

I used this splash screen maker to make the splash screens with the correct android-info.txt, so hopefully these should work. However, in case they don't, I take no responsibility if you guys brick your phones applying this through the bootloader.
Also, I figure I should mention, there is no gray border around the actual splash screens
instructions, as per @dgtiii
Code:
1. Place splash zip in your fastboot folder, rename splash.zip.
2. Reboot to bootloader, connect your phone to pc, should go to Fastboot USB mode
3. Fastboot oem rebootRUU
4. Fastboot flash zip splash.zip
5. Fastboot reboot-bootloader
6. Unplug your phone, select reboot in bootloader, see your awesome new splash screen!

Well try but i really think you need s-off to write the partition where the splash screen is located. I also read in the OP of the splash screen creator that s-off is mandatory.
Edit :
But don't worry if they don't work now, i think that s-off will be available for the M8 so your work is not for nothing !
