When I try to find the Froyo boot animation they are either:
1) The Nexus One boot animation.
2) The Froyo boot animation which is natively 256 X 256 expanded to 480 X 480.
As I am in a way afflicted by an obsessive desire to see things only in their native resolutions, I modified the animation to work correctly at its native resolution.
So, here you go.
This is not a flashable zip. If you want to use this bootanimation, search for the instructions. They are pretty much all over the place.
EDIT: Wasn't looping. Pulled till I fix that.
EDIT 2: It should work now. If it doesn't, God hates me. Just let me know.
animation doesn't loop
My bad, fixed it. I hope.
Loops ten characters
I was looking for boot animations for my HTC sensation 4G and was disapointed that many I found contained jpeg's that were lower res than qHD (960x540) so I decided to make my own.
Here are the first 2.
They are both montages from LFD2 intro sequence. Source video was 1280x720 and carefully resized and rotated to qHD (960x540) at 24 fps. The clips are ~40 seconds long, do not loop and do not finish before a typical boot up. Enjoy.!

Please click some thanks if you enjoy.
Aisde: for T-mobile 4g Sensation remove the leading LDF2_x_ filename part to make "TMOUS_bootanimation.zip", move to:
system / customize /resource
and set permissions to:
rw-,r--,r--

Basics :
The Android boot animation is contained within a an uncompressed zip file called bootanimation.zip that can be found in the media folder of the system partition i.e. /system/media on the internal memory of the device. This single file contains all the information required to play the boot animation, and is loaded automatically when the device boots. Thus, customizing or changing the boot animation is simply the process of editing or replacing this file.

Inside The Bootanimation.Zip File
This section is for those interested in finding out how the Android boot animation works. If you just want to install one without bothering yourself about what’s in the file, feel free to move on to the next section, as this one will get a little technical. Though it should be easy and simple enough for anyone to grasp.
While the Android boot animation might appear to be in a video format during playback, it is in fact a little different. If you extract the contents of the bootanimation.zip file to your computer, you will see:
A desc.txt file
A part0 folder (Contains PNG images named in incremental numbers)
More part1, part2 etc. folders (May or may not be present)
As you can see, bootanimation.zip merely contains one text file and one or more folders with PNG images. The animation is played simply by displaying the images in a sequence, and the text file defines how they are to be played. In essence, first the PNG files in the part0 folder are displayed one after the other and afterwards, those in the part1 file – if it exists – are displayed, again one after the other, and so on. All of this is defined in the desc.txt file.
Let’s see how it works in a little detail by taking a closer look at the contents of the file.
The folders
These contain PNG images named in numbers, starting from something like 0000.jpg or 00001.jpg and proceeding with increments of 1. There has to be at least one folder, and there is no known upper limit to the number of folders.
The desc.txt file
This file defines how the images in the folder(s) are displayed during the boot animation, in the following format:
Width Height Frame-rate
p Loop Pause Folder1
p Loop Pause Folder2
An example of a desc.txt file is:
320 480 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
As you can see, in the first line, 320 and 480 define the width and height of the boot animation in pixels for this example. This must be the same as the screen resolution of your device for the boot animation to properly play in full screen. 30 is the frame rate in fps (frames per second) i.e. number of images to display per second.
The second and third lines have a same format, start with p, which stands for a part of the animation and end in part0 or part1, which denotes the folder in which the images for that part are present.
The number after ‘p’ defines how many times this part will loop (repeat playback) before switching to the next part (if present). Specifying 0 would make the part loop indefinitely till the phone has fully booted.
The next number is for the pause, and is expressed in the number of frames, which can be translated into time by dividing it by the frame rate. A pause of 15 for example, would mean pausing for the time it takes 15 frames to play and since the frame rate is 30 frames per second, 15 frames would take half a second.
Translating all of this in case of the above example, the boot animation will play at a resolution of 320 by 480 pixels, at a frame rate of 30 fps, starting with the contents of part0 folder and after playing them in one loop, switching to contents of part1 folder and playing them continuously till the device fully boots.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE :
A note on resolution: Most high-end Android devices with large screens have a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, and are referred to as HDPI. Some mid-range devices have a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels and are called MDPI. Lastly, the screen resolution of some low-end devices is 340 x 320 pixels and these are called LDPI, though these are either the really old Android phones or the cheapest Chinese models.
As a rule, a boot animation made for a lower resolution device will run fine on a high resolution one but it will be centered on the screen, with the extra screen space around it not being used. Using a high resolution boot animation on a low resolution device will result in the boot animation not fully displaying on the screen, with its outer parts being cut off due to being outside the screen’s bounds.

what about these codes :
320 480 36
p 1 0 part0
s 1 /system/media/poweron.ogg
p 0 0 part1
s none
could you explain those ???????
Here I made a custom Watch_Dogs boot animation which appears on the loading screen before re-spawning with original sounds!
The Animation runs for 22 seconds on 720 x 1280 resolution.
Simply replace the current bootanimation.zip in /system/media/boodanimation.zip.
Enjoy and let me know what you think about it in the comments below!

Replace the Sound "PowerOn.ogg" in /system/media/audio/PowerOn.gg
Is there any way to make a bootanimation landscape and with sound ? I have tried and tried to figure it out and can't get it to do either. Well in lollipop at least. I did have cloudy with a bootanimation but not landscape and it had sound. I am completely stumped. I have a certain theme I am doing with my device and to have the boot animation to be landscape and with sound would complete my project. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't recall if I've installed a custom boot anim in L yet... I think I have. I hope I get your question.
But just create the animation content (foreground) rotated 90 degrees (landscape for the foreground), leaving the background OEM (height and width). It should run perfectly.
The sound file is a separate sound file (ogg)

How do you rotate it ? Do you do it within the zip ?

Effectively you are creating an animated 'gif', in a manner. If I take Photoshop as the example:
check out this as an example.
http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/create-animated-gifs-images-using-photoshop-cs6/ or an editor of your choice.
and this guys tutorial
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ac...ions-collection-tutorial-updated-10-19-a.html
You will create you background at the resolution (1080 W x 1920 H shutdown animation, boot animation full HD 1440 W x 2560 H are common resolutions for the G3) you wish for the animation, say solid black or what ever.
If you fully create your own, you will first set up the resolution and make your background color, then rotate the base image. Then create layers for each frame/cell of your animation. As you already rotated you base image to landscape, your layers will also be in landscape. Then copy each cell into a layer.
Create the animation, save each frame out as a jpg, create the desc.txt file, and zip it up, install (renaming your OEM animation to save them, and set permissions 644.
Following the guys tutorial, you can download animations, and deconstruct them, using parts as you wish.
Good luck.
I'm making my own Mortal kombat bootamimation from new game coming out. I have it full screen with a boot animation tool I found but can get poweron.ogg to play sound upon boot on lollipop candy5 ... Placed it in system/media/audio/ui but it is a no go.... With so7nd it would be soooo sick.
But I'll check out the links you gave me so maybe I get get it I'm landscaped instead of this full screen portrait cause it does look a little wonky
