So a few months ago, I decided that I will make a simple Boot Animation. Then, I stumbled upon Lucky Boot Animator, a no-frills boot animation creator that converts videos to boootanimation.zip.

The purpose of this app is simple: to create a bootanimation.zip file from any video, and from any video format.
Boot animation creator
**This is a beta release**
I am releasing this in general first to be beta tested by you, my fellow XDA members.
Please report any issue/bugs.
I will need as much feedback as possible.
Thanks
**** Please DO NOT distribute the program. It is still in beta. I will make a final release once bugs are found and fixed. ****
Lucky Boot Animator
This is an automated program that will convert ANY VIDEO of ANY FORMAT into a bootanimation.zip file.
Features:
Can convert virtually any video format.
Able to trim videos.
Creates a preview video which you can upload to youtube or share with others.
Creates a preview GIF file that you can upload to forums to share with others.
Project folder
Notes:
Phone must be rooted.
Your KERNEL MUST ALLOW custom boot animation.
Videos will be SCALED to the width/height you set.
GIF files has a limitation when it comes to color palettes so the GIF file produced may have lower quality than the videos. This is normal. The low quality is ONLY in the GIF file and has NOTHING to do with the boot animation files.
Boot animation will play when your phone is booting up. The boot animation WILL NOT CARE about the length of your video. As soon as it is done booting, the boot animation will stop. IT WILL NOT WAIT TO PLAY THE WHOLE VIDEO.
Basic Steps:
File->Open Video File (You can also drag/drop the file here)
Click on Create Boot Animation!
Move bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Reboot and enjoy your new boot animation!

Using the tools and info from pfcsabre and the below link I created some initial splash screen .nbh files. This replaces the very first picture you see when you turn on your phone and displays your radio version and such. If you want to make your own use this link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436105
Since I spent a little bit of time making these files and other files I haven't uploaded yet, I figured I would share them. I will probably upload more later.
Instructions: - Make sure your phone is Hard-SPL
1. Download the RaphaelCustomRUU.zip and unzip it to the RaphaelCustomRUU.exe file.
2. Download one of the Splash.zip files and unzip it to the same folder as the RaphaelCustomRUU.exe file (Make sure there is only 1 .nbh file in the same folder as the .exe,,, if you download multiple splashes put them in a subfolder)
3. Connect your phone to your PC and Run the RaphaelCustomRUU.exe file and follow the prompts. Its the exact same method as burning a ROM, but these files only replace the Splash screen and nothing else.
4. It will take about 20-30 seconds to burn and your phone will reboot displaying the pics in full 480*640 resolution.
5. These look incredible when you first boot up your phone.

4 more boot splash screens are done. I will upload them tomorrow. My new favorite is a sweet looking Transformers Decepticons Logo.
Can you make these please?

thanks in advance,
Jstar
I just overwrite the image to what the default boot screen was. (You can find out what the original filename was somewhere in Advanced Config)

This process changes the 1st boot screen, the one with the red letters in the lower right corner. It cannot be done within Windows by overwriting a file, it must be burnt in. When turning on your phone you can have up to 4 pictures, This boot screen process, follow by up to 2 splash screens (usually windows & operator splashes), then your wallpaper.
As an obsessive fan of Ska when I got a wild hair to figure out how to create my own boot splash image and animation I went straight to checkerboard and skanking. So for the few of you that share my love of Ska here's what i ended up with.

This was built for the Sensation but in theory should work for any HTC device with a qHD 540x960 screen
1. copy to same folder as fastboot.exe in your sdk installation
2. run the following adb command (or any alternate way of getting to bootloader)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
3. after the bootloader has finished loading run the following code. On the latest sdk install fastboot.exe is not located with adb but in the tools folder.
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 nameofimg.img
4. reboot and enjoy
Thanks to Shaquiel Harris for an easy & concise instructions

Boot Animation
skankin540x960.zip
1. rename zip to bootanimation.zip
2. make sure your system is mounted read/write, most root explorers are able to do this without having to use terminal emulator or adb.
3. copy into your bootanimation location, I suggest you rename your original so you don't overwrite it in case you have/want to revert. CM7 has it in /system/media
4. reboot and enjoy
Thanks to despotovski01 for Boot Animation Creator
If you want to create your own I'll walk through my method.
I found the animated gif with a simple google search and used GIF Frame Extractor developed by evanolds.com/. If you choose to use a similar program, make sure the output is png.
Loaded extracted frames into photoshop and recorded the actions to resize, clone and save each frame then repeated on the other gif frames
Collect the out put in a folder named as such so an alphnumeric sort list them in order, if you use numbers make sure to pad (1 --> 001), windows vista and up sorts detecting numbers meaning that frame 2.png will show before frame 10.png but a regular sort will not so it should be frame 002.png. Also, despotovski01 fails to mention this so I had to figure out the hard way, you need atleast 2 folders of image(s) for Boot Animation Creator to work. So I took the first frame and COPIED it in a separate folder.
Now rename the folder with the the single image 1 and the folder with all the frames 2 and place them both in an empty folder. Run Boot Animation Creator and follow the instructions on the post, the Sensation's dimensions are Width=540 Height=960.
If you want to create a gif for preview I used Photoscape
Happy Customizing Guys
FOCKER OUT!!!

Based on the guide that provided by Android Authority
Copy the corresponding bootanimation.zip to your devices SDCard. Using Root Explorer or ES File Explorer, place the new bootanimation.zip file in /system/media/. (You may want to backup your previous bootanimation.zip as well.)
You can also use "boot animation changer" it less of a hassle then go trough the exploren.
Just a tip, select the boot animation you want and youre golden. I am just lazy.
You can also just copy it to /data/local.
Android will use the /data/local boot animation before /system/media.
No need to backup the boot animation in /system/media.
If you want to go back to the original boot animation, just delete the one you copied to /data/local.
Problem half bootanimation
Hi
I'm sorry but I have a problem with this bootanimation.
I copy the bootanimation as bootanimation.zip into the folder /data/local/, when I restart my device, I have only the part0 of the bootanimation.
Do you know what's happens and if there is a solution?
Thanks
I find the solution, there are two ".db" files in the filder part0 and part1,
to do it working, you have to delete these files.
Bye
Also make sure you give the boot animation full permissions after you move it to /system/media or /data/local.
fantastic, I've previusly the 9th bootanimation but it was a little slow....this one goes faster (as the gif you posted) thank you very much
Before We Start
Disclamer:
By doing his to your phone you take full responsibility to whatever happens on your device. The developer will NOT be held responsible to whatever happens on your device. Of course, this has been tested but whatever happens on your device will not be held against the developer.
Now to the good stuff
Today I Will Show You How To Modify The Off Screen Charging Images To Your Liking
Things you will need :

Now that you have your img decompiled and your in the offmode_charging_images folder
open up your fave image editor I will be using gimp(because its free and im broke lol)
key things here I kept my images at stock depth 600x362 I did not go any higher as I would think it would mess up you can try your self if you can go higher tell ME!!!
Now if you made pngs the format go's like this 0,1,2,3,4 the rest 5,6,7,8 and 9 just loop the first ones so just copy them and rename if you did not make new pngs just overwrite them

Hi guys,
this is my first post on xda. I was wondering if there is a way to resize boot animation that are made for other screen resolutions and don't fit your phone.
after searching google i found a photo resizer tool. it can resize photos in batch and can make any boot animation fit to your phone screen size.
this tool is from microsoft and works on windows. just download it and install.
now download any boot animation. extract it's contents. go to each part folder, select all image files, right click and click "resize pictures". select your desired resolution or put some in custom settings, select stretch and ok.. boom.. it is done..
now open desc.txt, change resolution in first line according to your phone DPI.
the first value is width, second is height and third is fps. save.
repack files with winrar or any compression software but don't put compression, just simply store.
screen shots can be found below.
