I am still monitoring this thread, but all new content moving forward will be on my blog to make things easier ^_^
This will be a thread for all the boot animations and splash screens I produce/edit. Some boot animations are ROM specific, as noted, and can simply be flashed via recovery or ROM Manager, others will need to be renamed and adb pushed to the correct location for the ROM you're using (PM me if you need assistance, happy to help ^_^). For the splash screens, you MUST be S-Off via unrevoked forever. I will be checking and updating this thread regularly so feel free to post any suggestions, comments or requests here in this thread.
Instructions for ROM specific boot animations
1)Download .zip file from your phone by following the link you want
2)Install from recovery or ROM Manager
3)Reboot & enjoy!
Instructions for generic boot animations
1)Download .zip file from your computer by following the link you want
2)Rename the downloaded .zip appropriately (Usually bootanimation.zip or VZW_bootanimation.zip; if unsure, contact your ROM chef or PM me and I'll help as best I can)
3)ADB push the renamed .zip file to the appropriate location on your phone (Usually /system/media or /system/customize/resource; again, if unsure, contact your ROM chef or PM me and I'll help as best I can)
4)Reboot & enjoy!
Instructions for splash1 screens
1)YOU MUST BE S-OFF IN ORDER TO USE THESE! IF YOU ARE NOT, GO HERE AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS LISTED BEFORE PROCEEDING TO STEP 2!
2)Download .zip file from either from your computer or your phone
3)Rename it to PB31IMG.zip
4)Remove or rename any existing PB31IMG.zip file from the root of your SD card and copy the one you just downloaded and renamed to the root of your SD card
5)Power off your phone, reboot into bootloader (hold volume down and power, when it turns on, release power but NOT VOLUME DOWN!)
6)The bootloader will scan the file and prompt you to hit volume up to install, do that (unless you were just doing all this for practice and don't actually WANT a new splash1 screen lol)
7)Reboot & enjoy!

lol no worries, I never tell people what to do, only what I would do ^_^ I would just flash it in Recovery or ROM Manager (Heard some people having trouble with ROM Manager method, haven't been able to duplicate). If you really want to ADB push it, first you have to open up the RedemptiveRevolution_BIOS_boot_animation.zip file you downloaded, go in to the system>customize>resource folder and pull out the VZW_bootanimation.zip Then you can ADB push that exact VZW_bootanimation.zip file, no renaming necessary, to /system/customize/resource and you should be golden, but again, that's more work than you have to do ^_^
Good question though, and I updated the OP accordingly so hopefully it'll be a little clearer moving forward, that was my fault. The way I'm trying to do this is, any boot animations that are ROM specific (Custom ROM logos, wording, etc...), I'll install the ROM on my phone once I'm done with the boot animation and then try and load it myself. If it works, I post it, if not, I try again lol. That way, if it's in the ROM Specific section, all you should have to do is flash the downloaded .zip file in recovery or ROM Manager. It's when you dip into the Generic section that you have to be a teeeensy bit savvy and I'll be glad to help with those, just drop me a PM or a message here in this thread (Need to know what ROM you're running) and I'll either walk you thru it or, if possible, repackage the boot animation for you so you can flash it to your ROM in recovery the easy way ^_^
Awesome work Dan. I donated last night and he had a custom boot animation for me within a couple hours. He'll put whatever text you want on the boot screen and a custom image. He'll also keep tweaking it until you are happy with it.
Couldn't be happier with the work!

I'm also using redemptive 1.7 on Dinc and am having trouble getting a boot animation I want to use to work. I'm using root explorer and have tried placing the .zip file in system/customize/resource and named it bootanimation.zip and also tried VZW_bootanimation.zip and am having no luck. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Which one are you having trouble with? Again, if you guys are downloading the ROM specific ones, I've made that as simple as pie, just flash them in recovery or from ROM manager. If it's a different one, lemme know and I can make you a flashable .zip for Redemptive (How much do you LOVE those transitions by the way? Those things are sick!)
very nice work dude!
would really LOVE to see a DROID X BIOS one, i would use it for sure!
the generic incredible one is awesome
Thanks guys, I'd love to update these for other devices, but I have a D'Inc and my gf has a Moto Droid so that's all I can test on lol I need some testers *hint hint*

Splash Screens are stationary, and do not move. Boot Animations DO move however and are what is displayed after the splash screen.
If you want a custom boot animation, PM me what you are looking for. No promises, as this is not my specialty, but I can certainly give it a shot.

Hey man, for it being "not my specialty", you do some mighty fine work. Any way you could do a variation of "HTC Inspire, Rooted, S-Off" with a blue background? The order they appear isn't important, I just wanted to get those three points in as the text part.

are you Tired from stock lock screen icons. so am I. OK this is my first thread it is about changing the lock screen icons .
don't forget to do a backup with xrecovery before do anything ...
let's start :
1- download Attached file. extract it on your desktop you will find an images in the extracted dir.
2-use root explorer to copy this file ( framework-res.apk ) from your phone to pc. you can find it in this dir (root/system/framework/ ).
3-at your pc right click on the file ( framework-res.apk ) and chose open with .at new window chose winrar (or any zip tool you had).
4-at winrar double click on the dir (res) .and double click on the dir (drawable-hdpi).
5-drage & drop the images in the dir (drawable-hdpi) . winrar will ask if you agree click ok.
6-copy (framework-res.apk) from pc to your phone use root explorer to copy (framework-res.apk) in the dir root/system/framework/.
7-restart your phone.
DO THIS WITH YOUR OWN RISK ...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
update
we can change the lock & unlock sound with simple steps
1-choose an audio file (tow seconds or less) & convert it to ogg format (by any audio converting program).
2-rename it to lock.ogg for lock sound (or unlock.ogg for unlock sound ).
3-copy it to your phone.
4-use root explorer to copy it to root/system/media/audio/ui/
5-restart your phone .

but I think my thread is more Easily , more detailing & no need to use xrecovery
and don't forget I said its my first thread.
Here is the boot animation and also the theme to the show.
Push the bootanimation.zip to system/media. Rename the existing file to bootanimation.zipold.
If you want the sound push the wav file to ect and rename existing file to PowerOn.wavold. I have only tried replacing existing files not sure if will work if you have no boot sound.
*DISCLAIMER* I am no way responsible for what you do to your device
Thanks to TXLunchbox for the bootanimation

Sorry for the delay on the links. Can't get the files loaded as attachments but the dropbox links are up and working!
Again use at your own risk and so far have only tested on ROM that had existing startup sound.
Glad to see you got it up nd running

Good work man!
Tip: renaming the files to bootanimation.zipold should be bootanimation.zip.old, same with the poweron.wav file. Or you could rename it to .bak, that is how some of the various apps do it so the filesystem thinks it is a backup file. I think sdmaid will remove .old files when using it that is why I suggest using the .bak extension.

Couple of things...
First, while I do appreciate the thanks, I was under the assumption you were going to add this to a full ROM you were working on and not just post it in another forum. If that was the case you could have just linked to my post that I did for this. The reason I never posted it in any other phone forums is that the resolution is set specifically for the Galaxy S Vibrant, therefore may have not looked as good on other devices.
Second, for the sound to work, it all depends on your kernel. I never did one for mine cause the majority of people that use the device I designed the bootanimation.zip for had VooDoo kernels and those do not support boot sound.
Third, if you're wanting to make it flashable you're going to have to learn the code for the recovery system you are using for the phone. I used to have a flashable version of mine, but when codes changed for CWM Recovery, I just figured it was easier to tell people where to push the file to.
Again, I do appreciate the thanks, but next time be a little clearer on what you're doing with someone else's work before posting it as your own.
Thank you

I tried to push both files like you described even renaming to bootanimation.zip.old. rebooted but no animation. Im on valhalla black final + black booster.
Here are a couple of alternative boot animations for the L-24 5X. Like all things with the 5X OS they are completely different to any animations I have made for any other device I have owned and I have only tried them using the install method I will describe.
Although I suggest you adopt my method I do not take any responsibility for any ills that may befall your device.
1) Copy the downloaded animation file to whatever folder you wish on your Ext SD card.
2) Using a File Manager navigate to the folder .... /system/media .... there you will find a file named bootanimation.zip ...... Either delete this file or rename it. You will not be using this file again.
3) Again using a File Manager move the new animation file you have downloaded to the folder .... /cust/hw/usa/media .... there you will find another file named bootanimation.zip, rename this file in case you wish to use it in the future.
4) Rename the new file you have moved there to ...... bootanimation.zip ...... Reboot and you will see your new animation.
IMPORTANT NOTE ::::::: THESE ZIP FILES ARE NOT FLASHABLE ZIPS, DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL BY FLASHING - DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL BY EXTRACTING THE CONTENTS OF THE ZIP FILE - ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS MOVE THE ZIP FILE TO THE FOLDER INDICATED
Please don't ask if they will work with L-21/L-22 variants - I don't have those devices so I am unable to test with them - however if you have "large, round, golden ones" and are willing to try, please help out others by informing us if they do or don't.
When you have renamed your new file to bootanimation.zip change the permissions to what the original one has.
I have included animated GIF's so you can have some idea as to what they look like. I would welcome others to build and publish other anims on this thread, when I have time I hope to add a couple more.
I am on rooted L-22 variant.
there is no folder in root with name "/cust/hw/usa/media".

@subodhverma21 ... If you had bothered to read my post #1 you would have seen that I specifically asked for no questions in respect of the L-21 & L-22 variants because I had no way to test those devices. However if you wish to purchase an L-22 for me so that I can test it, then by all means let me know and I will give you the address where to send it.

Was the process of creating the bootanimation.zip different from the usual method or just the installation? I have made several before (although it's been a while). Just wondering if it's the same procedure.

@wickedesires ... I found virtually everything to be different and gave up trying to understand the method used and just copied the format of the original animation. To give you a brief and quick breakdown, the "desc.txt" file takes on a different format - each "part" file is named differently and when previously making animations for other devices I have always placed it in .... /system/media .... as I've said above this is not the case with the 5X. My advice to you is to download the original animation, break it open and amend it by keeping the original format and just replacing the ".jpg" files.
I would strongly advise testing any you make on your own device before publishing on a thread.

Deleted - Sorry guys/gals for last 3 posts. I had problems in the early morning with both my browsers, hopefully they are resolved now. Will load the new anim in next post.
Back for another attempt...Post#1 applies, don't forget to adjust Permissions. NOTE..... If you are using CyanMod Beta Rom then you may have to place anim in ..... /system/media .

My good friend @clsA ... I was betting my bottom dollar that you would come up with a request like this :laugh: :good:
The attached is one I made for my moto G and I've hacked it about a bit and made adjustments, so count this as my first effort. I do have some other ideas which might work but will need a bit of work.
To any one who downloads it, I would remind you that all the previous strictures apply and please note that if you are on the BETA CM ROM or it fails to run, then put it in ...../system/media
As usual the GIF gives you an idea.
OK here is my 2nd "Ghostie" one...... The usual...rhubarb...rhubarb...rhubard apply.

When I get some time to sit and fool with it I'm going to make a few more splash screens and some boot animations to go with them. It's just been hectic the last few days for my personal life lol. @metpolds I dig the new 1s bout to set Mona as mine until I can do those
Red skull bootanimation
Here's my first boot animation. It's stretched vertically to be 1080x1920 full-screen, the original was 1080x608. I also made a matching red version of the skull splash screen (which is in the boot logo thread).

Here is a less stretched/windowed 1080x1080 version of the same animation.

@wickedesires ... Congrats on the anims, its good to see you won the battle against the 5X's os.
I made a couple more, but due to file size restrictions I can't upload them directly to this post. They are full HD so they are about 30mb each. They can be found here. I cannot guarantee that they will remain there a year from now but I will leave them unless I need the space. As always refer to OP for how/where to install.
