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

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
I have the Motorola Triumph flashed to TickerGuy's FINAL CyanogenMod 7 Release, BETA 8 with Mantera's Overclocking Kernel TheOC v1.5 (LOVE LOVE LOVE this setup, by the way )
The problem I am having, and had even before with the stock Triumph ROM and Kernel, is NO splash image upon bootup. My boot animation works perfectly, but where the Motorola logo should be when you first boot, I just have a black screen for about 10 to 15 seconds. I tried flashing a new splash image multiple times with no luck. What are some steps I can take to get the splash image to show up so I can flash a custom one? I know it's not a big deal, but I'm HUGE on the aesthetic features available on this phone.

THANK YOU!
i am trying to find or make a good custom boot animation im currently on valhalla black edition(kj6) and I wanted something else other than the google boot animation. Is there a way that i can create one cause i would like to turn this into one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQKSQBJ58rY&feature=related
I've searched up and down, and i cannot find the correct INTRO boot animation for stock LG G2 D801 T-mobile. I accidentally deleted mine when loading a new boot animation and need it as backup in case I face a warranty issue.
I've scoured XDA, so linking to other posts is a dead end. the only viable download link is to the wrong boot animation.
can anyone help!

thanks!!!
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!!!
