So this is the Xoom bootanimtion rotated and scaled to fit our phone. I just pulled it from the system dump. Sent it to my boy bigt305. Then he did all the magic. DO NOT FLASH!!! You have to move it to /system/media with Root Explorer, etc. Enjoy, I do!
EDIT: So I added a tweaked one which seems to run better, on my phone at least. Also here's a link to a flashable version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11652410&postcount=458. Be sure to thank Kfunk.

well, i did as you said but then i restarted it and now it just goes black and doesnt show any boot animation. then it loads up like normal. but it seems to skip the boot animation. any ideas? i think i will replace it with a new download and see what that does.

Not to be condensending, but lets review what you should do.
1. Dl the zip.
2. Rename zip to "bootanimation.zip", no quotation marks.
3. Move file to the system/media folder. There should be one there already.
4. Paste the new .zip. It should ask if you want to overwrite the current. Say yes.
5. Reboot. It should work at this time.
Like I said, I'm not trying to be an ass, just trying to help. I know the file is good, I use it myself.

HELPFUL INFO FOR *ALL* BOOT ANIMATION ZIPS
AND *ALL* USERS:
I always drop boot anim zips into data/local, that way it sticks through every ROM flashover when you don't wipe. So follow user's instructions, only leave the system one alone and put it in data/local, it will automatically override the system media. Try it and report back. Also, if it still won't work, which I doubt, you could try the non-tweaked version
well, its official, this boot animation just doesn't like my phone lol. i'm using the lastest aospgbmod. so i think i shall give up on it now. thanks tho for everyone that tried to help me out!!!
Great job on the tweaked animation, looks awesome!!! I just dropped it into /system/media w/ root explorer b/c I do a complete wipe when updating ROMs.
What do you use to move the file? I tried file manager and i cant rename, cant move, cant copy to... its like its locked or something... Any suggestions?

As stated in the OP, you need a file manager w/ R/W capabilities like Root Explorer to mount /system. I use Root Explorer myself. It's a paid app but worth every penny! I've never used EStrongs (ES File Explorer) but it is free and may work. Not sure though, sorry.
Idk if I should ask for a flashable tweaked bootanimation.zip or manually do it myself.
EDIT: Can Estrongs file manager do this or only root explorer do this?

Just flash through your recovery and poof!
BE SURE TO MAKE A NANDROID before flashing this!!
Thanks to Heyitslou for pointing me in the right direction for which files to edit, Myn for putting together the flashable zip, and chris7os for testing everything out.

This is NOT a flashable zip. It just contains the Phone.apk, HTCDialer.apk, com.htc.resources.apk files that you can push to your phone using adb. It would be great if someone could make this into a flashable zip for me.

I dunno if this would help, but what worked for me doing my boot animations is I would find a pre-existing flashable .zip (search around for other themed dialers that utilize the same 3 files) and frankenstein my stuff into the pre-existing .zip file, repackage and voila! A flashable .zip! As always, nandroid first of course, but if, like me, you haven't dug (Wow, did I just try and type "digged"? I must be tired!) deep enough to understand what all the files in the flashable .zip DO, this way works fairly well in my experience, just watch your compression method and always keep the original so you can compare the compression ratios.

Ok not sure if this zip file will work but you can try. BE SURE TO MAKE A NANDROID before flashing this. I have not tested it. If it doesnt work just extract Phone.apk, HTCDialer.apk, and com.htc.resources.apk from the file and push it to system/app using adb

My phone really did not like it when I tried root explorer. Not at all. It got very angry and started vibrating uncontrollably. But it did give me a chance to use a new trick I learned last night: If you hold down power, volume down and the optical trackpad at the same time then release them, your phone will reboot. No more battery pulls! It doesn't reboot you into recovery, it's just like rebooting from the power menu.
Guess I'll have to wait till I get home to use ADB....suck.
hahaha you better whip your phone into shape! but yeah i read about that little trick a few days ago. its pretty cool. hopefully someone will be able to make a working flashable zip..

That would be "incredible".....yes, pun intended.
I have put the Phone and Dialer apk's into a flashable zip, and put the com.htc.resources into a metamorph theme so that it will not change any other theme that you might have on your phone.
Download both files to your SD card. The first file that you will install is Redemtion_Dialer_Clockworks.zip. Just use rom manager to install this file, and as always make a back-up of your current rom before you do anything else.
After you have installed the first file, you will need to to install Redemtion_Dialer_Metamorph.zip using Metamorph. Right after you install this file, you will get a force close of com.android.vending and might get a force close of Metamorph upon exiting Metamorph, just reboot the phone if it does not do it on its own and your are done.
Let me know if you run into any problems along the way.
Thank you. Has anyone comfirmed its working so i can add it to the OP?

"the theme you selected is invalid because the theme control file could be missing, or it is not correctly written. contact the developer"

It won't flash for me. Says something about an update script.

Pushboot WAY too complicated...try this, it's what I did:
After downloading it to my computer, I renamed it Bootanimation.zip. I set my phone to Disk Drive and slid the file over to sdcard/zips (you can move it anywhere on the card, that just happens to be where I keep my zip files). Set the phone back to Charge Only.
Went in Root Explorer, set it to R/W, went to sd card/Zips,and moved bootanimation.zip to system/customize/resource. I left my sound file in place (I like to hear the reboot process...it makes me aware when the phone does randoms...).
Backed out of RE, rebooted and VOILA!!!!
Sounds difficult, but it took 2 minutes and was quite simple.
Nice boot animation, too!!!

Ok, not sure what's happening but I downloaded both animations, put them in my resource file. All I got with each one was the word "Android" animated. I put the old animation file from Myn's and it was back to the original. What's up?
I put one in, then tried the other by the way.

Very cool boot animation.
Is there any way to skip the small (1 second?) blank screen before the beging of the boot appears with the Evo text?
That would be awesome if it went right from the reversed splash screen to the cube boot without seeing the transition.
Thanks for the work!

After you save the boot animation using your computer .you have to open the zip and check both folders .there should be a "thumbs.db" file in each folder (windows automatically puts this file in both folders) remove the found thumbs.DB files and you should be all set .i encountered this problem early in the dev scene when i was making my own boot animations. Sounds like your having the same issue.

It's how you zipped the bootanimation... instead of making it bootanimation.zip\bootanimation\stuff make it bootanimation.zip\stuff.

Ok. Does your latest file work?
If not try these issues:
Remove the space from all of the file names. Something about unix doesn't seem to particularly like spaces in file names or directories.
If you are on windows use a utility like winzip and create a store only zip file with the folders and dir.text. If on a mac (like me), open terminal and use the zip command. If you type just plane zip it shows the options. I believe this method works on linux as well???? But, don't really know as I stay away from anything that relies that heavily on command line and coding...
Make sure you don't have any extra files like thumbs on a windows machine. If you're on a mac, you have to put in the location of every folder. (To view hidden files on a mac install the secrets prefs pane from here.
If it still doesn't work, let me know and I can troubleshoot it better for you. Also, If anyone out there needs help with doing this on a mac, let me know and I can put together a tutorial. (I never found one and had to piece it all together with some help from cogeary.)

Your problem might be encoding/line endings used in the desc.txt (if you used a normal windows editor like Notepad then it probably messed it up). Try this zip (I used notepad++ to make the desc.txt)... I haven't tested it but it should work: View attachment bootanimation.zip

Just FYI, that shouldn't make any difference... about half of the zips I've seen have been in jpg's and mine (and lfabor's SC one) are in jpg as well. How odd.
Anyways, glad you got it working! Would you mind uploading the correct one for all of the xbox fans out there?
Well do as soon as I get home

so heres the finshed working boot animation for u xbox fans its kinda rough at the start but nicer at the end. keep in my its my first boot animation thanks to every one who helped me
Hello everyone!
Here is the official CM10 boot animation that many of us have been waiting for! I've tested it and it works beautifully on the Infuse.

}
Instructions:
1. Download to your phone's SD card
2. Flash in recovery
3. Allow the device to reboot itself. It will reboot back into recovery (this is normal)
4. Reboot manually from recovery. The Samsung and CyanogenMod boot logos may seem to appear longer than usual. This is normal when you change the boot animation and adds only a couple of extra seconds. Please be patient.
5. Behold the glory of the official CM10 boot animation
Please note: I take no responsibility for the work done on this animation. I'm just simply passing it down to the Infuse community. All credit goes to the CyanogenMod team and Cameron Behzadpour. This is the 480x800 version that is compatible with our device.
thanx dude.itz superb.
Thanks... love it ...
Pretty nice, may want to say the reboot back to recovery can take a while, i almost thought my phone was bricked lol

I thought that was just me. Thanks for also confirming this. I'll add it to the OP. I was experiencing the same thing with the nexus boot animation.

Is it possible to just put the boot ani in with a root explorer or does it have to be flashed?

You should be able to but I haven't tested it. Make sure you download the zip. Extract bootanimation.zip from /system/media/. Copy the file then mount /system as writable. Finally go to /data/local and paste. (Can anyone confirm this? I haven't done it in a long time)
The boot animation zip on my phone is in system/media. The reason I ask is because the cm9 one is like 200 JPEG split between the 2 folders an the new cm10 one is like 100. I was nervous something might look for those other files.

Ah this was useful "In ALL versions of Android since version 2.0, the use of /data/local is recommended as it is the first place the OS looks for the animation. If it cannot find one there, it defaults to /system/media. /data/local has at least 2 advantages: 1) the file size is not as limited as s/m allowing for larger animations or larger image sizes in them & 2) if you put it there and it is a bad download or any other reason it may boot loop, it is easier to remove from /data/local with a simple adb line and your device defaults back to the default one in /system/media."
Thanks to moderator fish1552 at xoomforums.com for this.
successfully flashed mine & looks nice! it only takes about 5secs upon loading on my unit. thanks for sharing

Nice! For me, I found that clearing the caches, flashing the boot animation, then fixing permissions just to be safe made the boot-up process faster, for those of you who are impatient like me.
I like it also but is there a way to add a Flashing 10 in the Center for the CM 10
i am not a Photoshop person to do such a design

There is definitely a way to add a flashing 10. I have a lot of work to do now that I'm back at school, but you can find custom numbers and use Paint.NET as a substitute for Photoshop, and it's free.

Secondly make sure you have Boot Animation factory.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678540
This process is not as hard as it seems. Download the zip in the OP and extract it. In the extracted folder, you'll navigate to system>media>bootanimation where you'll find yet ANOTHER zip. Extract that and inside is the magic of the boot animation. About 100 different pictures in two folders that make up the boot animation. Edit each one to your liking in Paint.NET and add whatever effects you want. Repackage the boot animation zip file with the program of your choice, then repackage the WHOLE thing so that it can be flashed within recovery.
Use Boot Animation factory to preview your new boot animation and make it usable on your phone. It's just a tedious process. When editing the images, just make sure that you don't change the size of the image on accident.
Thanks for sharing. It worked just as explained
It's a nice change until I find a good Fallout startup to go with my phone's theme...or until I get bored with the whole HEY! Shiny object!

Kudos for having the patience! I'm glad it turned out for you. If you want to really get adventurous you can make your boot animation completely custom with that method. Maybe you can start making a glowing Fallout logo boot animation for multiple devices and post.

Hmm...good idea. I made up a quick & dirty Aperture Laboratories (from Portal) startup screen a while back, so I know I can pull off at least SOMETHING...assuming I can stick with a ROM for more than a day
This is what I do for bootanimations, j use gimp (free...but you can use,any software...paint-lol, or just any image) to get the basic single image made at,480x800
Then I get a video editor...I use one on linux called lives (free)
I create a clip using the picture...usually picking 100-150 frames...at 25fps that's 4-6 seconds
I then mess around with the video effects...add swirls, spins, color changes, zooming in/out...etc
When done all the images are kept ins folder so I take that folder and copy it to windows...I boot into windows and use bootanimation factory to turn it into a proper bootanimation zip (can never get it when I do it myself)
If you can't locate the folder the images are saved you can save it into a video...you can then use software to extract the frames...anyways that's just a quick way to make boot animations instead of manually changing each image...

A video editor is a great idea. I might have to boot up the old Linux box and try that program. I figured there was something out there to extract the frames. Thanks for the tip mg

Hi dudes,
did my first bootanimation for HTC ONE SV, so don't be to hard to me
Please note:
I have tested it and it worked.
Your device must be rooted to use this.
Use it on your own risk and only if you know what you do!
If you wanna have a look:

}
Download it from attachment and replace the original one (but please make a backup before) with a root explorer in the folder /system/customize/resource/.
Set the permission to rw-r--r--
I wanna thank to scar45 that he gave me permission to use his files/bootanimation for DHD as base!
This is great!
Thanks for the animation I do like it a lot. I will put it in my phone as soon as I get a chance.
Will report back if it works.:good:
It does work and it is flashable via CWM (not directly but easily) !
I'm S-off, SuperCID, Bootloader Unlocked and Rooted. Running JB
I got the Cricket version of the One SV and I'm trying to get a boot animation working that I made. After I got together the images I wanted I figured I would follow the same folder tree and named them the same as what was in the original boot animation. I also made a sound to replace the original one. I used winrar on normal compression and copied it over to my sd card. I backed up my original and copied and overwritten the original one. I also did the same with the sound. Renaming both after the ones they are replacing. After replacing both files I restarted my phone. The sound I replaced played during the original shutdown animation so I took that as a good sign. But when the phone restarted it was just a black screen the sound didn't even play. Does anyone know how i can fix this. Thanks In advance.

Try with 7zip instead of winrar, don't change settings.

No, must be the same filename as stock. I mean compression in settings when packing.
Here how it looks like in german:

Ok tried it like you showed me and it didn't work. So i tried an app on my phone called Zarchiver and it had a option to zip with no compression and it worked great. Thanks for the help if you ever need a tester for cricket for this phone i'll be more then happy to test it for you. I do know that your deodexed framework and apps somewhat work on the lte just the programs crash and no cell service wifi works just can not make calls.Oh and preparing sim card also kept coming up.

The bootanimation thing is a little bit tricky. It took me also many tries to get it sorted out, but 7zip did the trick for me.
As for cricket: if somebody will upload a system dump or a cwm backup (only system) i will see what i can do.

I can do that for you let me switch to CWM since i got TWRP installed now i wanted to make a CWM backuo also so to have both. I'll have that dump for you in about an hr ill reflash my JB stock rom that i made before deleting some system apps.
Nice bro and thanks. I've got this running on my Boost SV now.
Does this require the russian kernel?
If you are S-on, yes.
No wonder I couldn't get it running

I used Photoshop Elements, but every photosoftware should do it.
You need the font installed on your pc, choose it in the photosoftware (must look at my pc, how its the name). Now draw out with black color (only) the parts you want to overwrite. Now go to writing. Pick up the color of the font and choose the right size. Write the text, you wanna write and some of the text at the left or the right. Then move the text in the position. Use the text at the left or the right to get it in its position.
Do this with every picture.
