[Q] Boot animation change - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I'm really wanting to change my boot animation to something different, because I'm tired of seeing the boring Galaxy S logo and the Verizon logo on my Fascinate.
Well, I'm a little stuck.
First off, what app do I need to have to get the boot animation changed.
Second, does it need to be in a video format or an image format, and what format would it need to be in?
Third, how do I backup the stock boot animation on the Fascinate?
All help is appreciated!

There an app in the market called Boot Animation Changer, try it. You need to have root of course.

[Q] Samsung Epic4g Custom Boot Animation

I know I know its one of these threads. I have looked everywhere and cant find it, but I believe myself to have a very specific issue.
I am running ACS - Leaky Gingerbread and I want to have the Droid Charge's boot animation and boot sound. I downloaded the system dump and adb pushed the .qmg's over to my phone.
I pushed:
/system/bin/playlogo
/system/bin/playsound
/system/media/bootanimation
/system/media/bootsamsung
/system/media/bootsamsungloop
Now when I boot it shows nothing at all but a black screen until widget locker pops up. What gives? what am I missing?
Thank you alot

boot animations

now that i finally got clockwork working im trying to change the boot image. i have LG Ally so first is the LG logo then the VERIZON splash screen then the android logo. i flashed a boot.zip thing called matrix and it said sucessfull but it doessnt show up at boot...my other question is if i delete or replace the lg and verizon images will is mess up my OS or can i boot without them... do i need to replace them manually with a certain type of file or will a .gif or .jpeg or something work in its place?
Did you flash a custom Rom? Most of those zips are built for a specific ROM, so unless you are running that custom ROM, it probably will not work. Also it sounds like you are referring to the actual boot splash screen and not the boot animation, the difference being the animation appears after the splash screen. With a custom ROM, what will happen is the ROM will retrieve boot animations from a folder first, from which you can put your custom animation and boot splash. If nothing resides in that file, it will default to the boot animation on the phone, at least that is my understanding.
unfortunatley im having trouble finding a rom for the LG Ally. all the links i find are broken and no one at the Ally section of android forums will answer any of my questions. if anyone knows the best rom to have for lg ally here id appreciate it but i doubt the download link works

[Q] HELP!! Boot Animation wont change on HTC m8! Tried Manual and Flashing!! Help!!

I'm new here, so yeah.. I've rooted my HTC M8 and I've been trying to change my boot animation. I've gotten Rom toolbox, boot animations app, downloaded a few. I've tried changing them manually by going to system/customize/resource, data/local, system/media, nothing! I've tried flashing them, but when I swipe in twrp, it installs then goes dark, and restarts without success. The only one that changed by both manual and flash was a catching fire boot animation. But all I was able to change was the sound from a catching fire boot animation
I got a catching fire boot animation from here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2748536
Even though it didn't change, the catching fire zip is still there.. in system/customize/recourse
Please help I've tried everything and I'm out of ideas!!!

I have a Sprint HTC one M8. Rooted, but it doesn't have any custom roms.

Black screen problem (boot animation) I NEED HELP PLEASE !!

Hello,
I have a Sony Xperia E and I wanted to change the boot animation of it. I had done it before so I knew how to change it. So I downloaded a boot animation I thought looked nice, but it originally wasn't for my screen size (320x480). I decided to unzip the boot animation file and change the desc.txt file to the right dimensions of my phone. After doing that I compressed the file and named it boot animation. I then placed this boot animation in the same place as the boot animation that was installed on my phone and I clicked "replace" on the window that popped up. I then rebooted my phone, But when it was turning on I noticed that the screen was all black and 15 min later it's still black. My screen stays black forever and I can't do anything.
I had already changed my boot animation twice, using the exact same method, and y phone was rooted.
I don't know what to do and if it's possible to repair it or install a rom on it without having to go to a shop but if anyone out there sees this message and knows what I could do to repair my phone, that would be very nice !!
Thank you,
adhyft
