Hello guys! I've came across with a bootanimation and decided to make some editing. So I edited it and added some more frames.
I compressed it to "store" using 7-zip and pushed to my phone via adb (adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
So I rebooted and it didn't show up :X
What did I do wrong?
Attached here is the file.

Depending on what rom you're using, you might need to push it to /system/media

I'm using KaosFroyo v28 and I successfully pushed the original version of this boot animation and it worked. The edited version isn't.

Boot animation in Android 1.6 and 2.2 are diffident files. I don't think that you have bootanimation.zip in 1.6. But I would also like to have Tattoo's original boot animation on 2.2 because it's the best.
Here you have it.
I have tried to add numerous different boot animation on my phone. From my understanding you place them in the system/media folder and replace the existing bootanimation.zip with the custom animation and reboot. However I have tried with 4 different animations and only got a black screen. I tried to unizip them and rezip them using 7.z and making sure I zip it with "store" to no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated here. Also does it matter it Im using Supermanager to move and rename the zips, or does it strictly have to be thru adb. (Though I have tried both)
Im running gingerblur 1.3 with honey glow theme and boot animation.
Dont unzip it. Put the bootanimation.zip in the system/media. I use Root Explorer.

Oh. You asked how to install you should ask how to create, or how to zip.
I said in my original post that I have tried just placing it in the folder, and that I have tried to rezip them. My question was why it wasnt working, or what I was doing wrong.
is it possible to pull a boot animation from another Rom? if so how do i do it?
Yes you can do it. I won't get too in depth cause there are several threads explaining how, but copy whatever bootanimation you want to SD card first. Then depending on what ROM you have the bootanimation could either be in /data/local, /system/media, or in stock ROM i believe /system/customize/resource. Rename the stock bootanimation to bootanimation.zip.bak in case you want to revert then copy your new bootanimation to same folder and make sure the filename is bootanimation.zip and the permissions match what the previous one was which is (rw-r--r--). Reboot and your done. Same thing can be done with the downanimation also.
Thanks found an animation from another ROM I liked and wanted to put it on ROM I like using

Thank you! worked perfectly. other than verizons bootanimation is named VZW_bootanimation.zip. worked great!
Hello Y'all!
I've created a bios-like boot animation for our wildfire:
The idea came from frysee (original thread here), but I've build all the files myself.
There are two way's to put it on your phone:
With the use of ADB:
1. place the attached bootanimation.zip in the tools folder of adb
2. open the command prompt and cd to the tools folder
3. type "adb shell" and press enter
4. type "mv <path-to-bootanimation>/bootanimation.zip <path-to-bootanimation>/bootanimation.old" and press enter
for example: mv system/media/bootanimation.zip system/media/bootanimation.old
-> now you have a backup of your original boot animation
5. exit
6. type "adb push bootanimation <path-to-bootanimation>" and press enter
for example: adb push bootanimation system/media
7. type "adb shell bootanimation" and unlock your screen. You should see the new bootanimation. Press ctrl+c to stop.

New to adb -> link!
You can also replace your bootanimation by using a root explorer:
frysee said:
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 bios_bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip, if necessary
exit root explorer
reboot phone
Profit = Enjoy Bios boot animation!

What is the right path to you bootanimation?
frysee said:
The right path for your bootanimation differs between devices and even ROMs, so it is hard to list the right one for every setup.
However, you should be able to track down the right one by looking for an existing bootanimation.zip using Root Explorer or ADB.
Most likely it will be one of the following:
/system/media (try this first)
/system/customize (some Evo ROMS seem to use this one)
/data/local (should work an nearly all ROMs, as long as there is no bootanimation on /system)

I can only tell that on cyanogenmod 7, the boot animation is indeed stored in system/media.
When you are on a stock rooted Froyo ROM, you can folow the explanation of laraz (thank you for this, laraz!):

store on root of SD card
open root explorer make sure to make R/W
go to SDCard and copy file hold down on file you wont and choese copy
navigate to bootanimation path (#)froyo system>customize>rescource- paste over exsting bootanimation.zip done
rename bootanimation.zip to something else (bios_bootanimation.zip)
exit root explorer
reboot phone

The speed of the animation is adapted to my phone: normaly I can only see it untill "activation root access SUCCEEDED", then I can enter my pin.
To adapt the speed of the animation to your phone/ROM, you can change the frames per second:
1. extract bootanimation.zip in the attachment
2. open desc.txt in notepath or similar program.
3. you see the folowing
Code:
240 320 4p 1 0 androidp 0 0 part1
the third number (in this case "4") is the frames per second.
4. adapt ONLY the third number to the desired amount of frames and save the file.
5. put android, part1 and desc.txt again in a zip-file. Make sure that YOU DO NOT USE ANY COMPRESION or it will not work!!!! (in WinRAR: use "compresion method: store")!!
6. Now you can try your new bootanimation!

Yes, but only the relevant ones (and they are png's, not jpg's). But I have the original psd photoshop files so it wasn't that hard, 20 min of work, I think.

You can change the framerate to a higher value, if you want. It's explained in the first post!

nice awesome bootanimation
Can you make the boot animation flashable?
I cant replace the bootanimation.zip using rootexplorer.
I did all the steps but whenever I paste it,
it all goes back to the old bootanimation.
Thanks man.
Great bootanimation thanks.

I need help with restoring the stock Galaxy S2 boot animation.
This was what happened. I installed jrummy's Root Tools.
In my eagerness, I replaced the original boot animation without backing up!
Now when I want to undo the changes that has been done, many an online search suggested going to system/media and removing bootanimation.zip so that bootsamsung and bootsamsungloop can work their magic...
And here is where the problem is, bootanimation.zip is nowhere to be found!
I wonder if Root Tools had totally overwritten bootsamsung and bootsamsungloop.
All I want is to get back the original bootanimation sequence.
Can anyone help with this? TIA!!!
Here is the original bootanimation
Just unzip the attached zip file and copy and paste the attached bootsamsung.qmp and bootsamsungloop.qmg to system/media and you are done..
BTW is your poweron sound intact??
Thanks bro! The poweron sound is still present.
I have resolved the problem. Apparently, I have been going at it wrongly.
I had been using Astro as file manager but it didn't allow me to access data/local where bootanimations.zip was.
After I switched to RootExplorer and removed the offending file, voila!
