here try this use root explorer(if you dont have it you can get it in the market) to put in correct place(depends on the rom you are running(*)?
store on root of SD card
open root explorer make sure to make R/W
go to SDCard and copy file
navigate to bootanimation path (*)
rename bootanimation.zip to something else (bootanimation1.zip)
paste file and rename bootanimation.zip to match what the old one was if necessary
exit root explorer
reboot phone

from what i can see that rom isn't set up for sound. but i can make it where it can.
Not sure if your rom supports audio but on my rom, the location for audio is the same as that of the bootanimation (/data/local/).
It should be named android_audio.mp3 and as for permissions:
Owner: check only read and write
Group: check only read
Others: check only read

no reflashing, just renaming a file and moving the new to that folder using root explorer(or es file explorer) the you just add the mp3 to same folder you put bootanimation in and reboot.

Can someone post up some flashable boot animations for those that adb illiterate? I saw about 2 or 3 in the sticky but none that caught my interest. Think you guys can help me out?
This would be sweet. Hope somebody comes through
U dont need adb...use root explorer. That's what I do.
Dont wanna mess with ADB?
Download the boot animation file.
Rename to bootanimation.zip
Put on root of SD.
Open up Root Explorer, navigate to root of SD long press the bootanimation.zip file, and select move
Navigate to /system/customize/resource
Click Mount R/W
Click paste, and overwrite the existing file.
Reboot.
**NOTE: you may want to back up the existing boot animation first, in case you dont like the new one.

You can also use root explorer. You don't even need a computer to do it. Just download the zip to your SD card, and copy it with a root explorer. Go into data>local as R/W paste, and then reboot.

thats the easiest way to do it. ill update the post
SO in root explorer you just go to /data/local... and just place the bootanimation.zip there.. Then unzip the android_audio.zip, grab the mp3 file and place it in the same place?

you are correct and than reboot and you will have the bootanimation with sound.
Mortal Kombat and Apple getting taken off the stage.. love it!
I cant believe more members havent thanked you
Working beautifully on my Inspire, thanks alot
can you use this to get sound on all the bootanimations.zip?
yes you can just place everything in the right folder.
Assuming we're running stock we just put it into System/Customize/Resource
Is this correct?
Also If we don't want sound I assume just don't put the file in?
EDIT: I got it successfully. "System/Customize/Resource" is the correct location if you're on Stock based rom's. It's pretty hilarious.
I got no sound. Should I to rename the android_audio.mp3 file? What about the permissions?
this is F***ing AWESOME!
I am getting no sound even with the mp3 in the local folder. Used root explorer, moved anime to local and cut mp3 over to local and both in the same folder and no sound. Rebooted twice just to make sure and no go. Hmmmm

If your using a file manager app like astro file manager of root explorer. Open that and scroll down past the SDcard folder and below that you should see the folder "System". Select that then scroll down to Media. Select that and paste the boot animation to that folder.

I have never personally tried to make a boot animation myself. You can do a google search "how to create android bootanimation" that should give you some sites that can give you insight on how to create your own bootnaimation file.

If you are using Root Explorer did you select the "Mounted as r/w, r/o"?
You might have to select the grey box up top that says mount r/w and press it until it says Mount R/O, then it will let you paste. Try that and see if that helps.

If your phone is rooted "Root explorer" is the best file manager app I have ever used. It has a text editor/viewer(for xmls and build.prop) and it organizes files you zip or unzip nicely into folders. It isnt free though. Oh and most importantly it allows you to change permissions when dealing with system apps/files like the bootanimation.zip in system/media.
Edit** thought it over & I dont remember if you have to change permissions for bootanimation, but I did.

Thanks for replying. My current bootanimation.zip is in system/media & so is att_pu.ogg. So the OGG doesn't replace the current one in system/media?
So if I wanted to go back I'd reflash my current bootanimation.zip? Replacing the modified bootanimation.ogg with the original att_pu.ogg?
Or do I need both bootanimation.ogg and the original att_pu.ogg?

Make a Nandroid. Using BMM flash bootanimation.zip? Reboot & I'm done?

To install (for those who are not familiar with the process):
1. copy bootanimation_moto_pulse.zip file to SD card
2. using Root Explorer (or the like) copy from SD card and paste to /system/media (make sure you mount r/w)
3. delete the current bootanimation.zip (make sure to save a copy on your SD card first, if you haven't already)
4. rename bootanimation_moto_pulse.zip to bootanimation.zip
5. mount r/o, exit Root Explorer, reboot, and watch the moto logo throb

Rename it to "droidhd.ogg" without the quotes, of course. Then make sure it is located at /system/media with the bootanimation.zip. Set the permissions to both to rw-r--r-- make sure the owner reads:
Owner 0-root
Group 0-root
Then reboot. It's really quiet, in my opinion. I'm considering boosting the volume of the .ogg if anyone would be interested in that, let me know.
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.
