I have been trying to customise my boot animation and splash screen and have come accross a few issues, any help would be apreciated guys
1) so the bootanimation.zip is in /system/media/ right? but how do we get the audio to work with it? should it be the same format/filename as other android devices? because the one im trying to use from my DHD wont work
2) i've been trying to flash a new splash screen, i have an unlocked bootloader, i converted a .bmp into a spash .img but when i tried to flash it fastboot returns the error "partition not found" what is the splash partition called on the play if it's not splash1
Sorry to dig out an old thread I'm also interested in making a new splash screen for my xplay and I can't find no play specific instructions.
Any of the free xperia guys fancy shedding some light on this? I like the freexperia splash but also would like to flash my own design.

Sony have messed up partition tables compared to other android phones, it looks like there isnt even a splash1 partition, i wouldnt be suprised if, the spash is held in /boot like recovery, meaning to change the splash, we would have to add it to the boot.img and flash that

Thinking about it yes it will be in boot.img as when you flash cm7 splash screen gets changed to free xperia splash. Ill extract boot image from cm7 and take a look when i get time.

Great thanks.
But when flashing cm7 splash screen changes, and its only boot and system img what gets flashed.

The file is part of the system.img
You can replace the boot animation located at
/system/media/bootanimation.zip
Make sure to chmod 644 the file

Where can I find some cool flashable splash screens for aosp/darkhorse?
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
Not sure that splash screens are flashable. Boot animations are, but I don't know about splash screens. I could be wrong, though.

You need an s-off bootloader to flash a splash screen (the one before the boot anim). If you want more info I can link you, but beware, if you don't want to read and know what you're doing, you may seriously F your phone.
I mean, yea, its possible to f up your phone, but if you just read and execute the instructions, you should be fine . A search should pull up the thread
Check your PM

just make sure you use the correct splash method for your bootloader. i.e. you cant use fastboot with regaws method, it must be HERCIMG.zip. happy flashing.
I'm using unrevoked, with hercimg.zips... works great...

Also want to know. In EVO 3D devs made flashable zip so just put on the microSD card and use CWM to update.

You can't change the splash screen without s-off

Wait I have to post the link as it is not in my thread.
Edit: Download this zip file, I think I have the stock splash screen it it but I am not on my computer to check. If not search the Paranoid Android thread in the Sensation development forum I know it is a link to the stock splash screen posted in it.
Edit2: Here is a link to the post with the stock splash screen linked in it. Just try both of them as one is the stock splash screen.

Hi,
I'm requesting if somebody could provide me with a flashable zip to change the boot animation in ViperXL 3.10 back to the original HTC boot animation.
I have already tried to change the files in system/customize/resource folder with root explorer but it doesn't seem to work.
Thanks
Reflash a stock ROM.
Then "adb pull bootanimation.zip /system/media"
/dance
Or download cleanrom or kingcobra either one should have it. And pull the bootanimation.zip from the ROM.
Then "adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media"
Must be in twrp to do so and to push it, the zip must be in your adb folder
