Nice.
Did you know you can copy bootanimation.zip to /data/local/ and it will be used?
No need to backup your original one.

Yes, I know. I do it this way, because I don't want my boot animation to take space on my data partition.
You forgot to mention (for those who don't know) to change the permissions to rwx-r-r.

**IF you use this on a D1 it won't play smoothly, its not optimized for the D1**
I made it for my self but figured I might as well share it.
This is the stock Droid 2 boot animation. All I did was change move a couple files so that the eye will scan multiple times instead of just once.
Instructions (rooted users):
1. Download the bootanimation.zip file from above to your SD card.
2. Open Root Explorer and copy the file to /data/local or /system/media (replaces the stock)
3. Reboot your phone and enjoy your new boot animation.
Instructions (non-rooted users):
You will need the Android SDK installed to do this and know how to use ADB
1. Download the bootanimation.zip file from above to your PC.
2. Move the file into your android-sdk/tools folder.
3. Make sure nothing is selected and hold SHIFT+right click inside your tools folder.
4. Choose “open command window here.”
5. Type in the following commands:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
adb reboot
6. Your phone will reboot with your new boot animation.

Thx, but you don't have to use adb.
Just copy with rootexplorer bootanimation.zip to C:\data\local.
I like adb more ;D

i think with root explorer its easy to change for any person....
Nice work! Thanks
no need of doing copy and paste just download "root tools" from market and it will offer many boot anims (nexus one is also present). so go for it...
THANKS ARE WELCOMED

Big props to User Error for modifying this for the Dell Streak! Head over to Modaco to d/l.
Not the Streak, but you get the idea. Skip to 35 sec in:
Install by copying to /data/local. Full instructions from fone_fanatic:

3 Options to install.
First step: Extract downloaded .zip file to reveal "bootanimation.zip"
1. ADB
Navigate to the folder containing "bootanimation.zip" in terminal/command prompt.
Type the following
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /Data/Local
Then to test, set your device so display is in landscape (will not display properly if you have it on portrait and test it but will display fine either way on boot)
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
2. Root Explorer
Copy "bootanimation.zip" to your SD card
On your Streak open up Root Explorer (or any other app that allows you to copy paste to the internal memory)
Copy "bootanimation.zip" and paste it to /Data/Local
3. Terminal Emulator
thanks nickshertzer, his directions are for drop box but can easily be manipulated for simply copying the bootanimation.zip to your SDcard
nickshertzer said:
BTW, if you don't have / want to get out that sync cable for ADB, use dropbox & Terminal Emulator. Make sure you download the .zip using dropbox longpress first before running following command (requires Busybox / can't remember if it is installed default on Steve's ROM)
Code:
su
cp /sdcard/dropbox/bootanimation.zip /data/local/
reboot

Hoping it works for our phones, i can't try since im bricked and phone's being shipping but yeah...

instructions from OP;

2. Put it on your sdcard
3. open terminal enter these commands:
su
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/

Easier Method:

id like to know how to replace the boot animation on my streak 5 thanks
Look in /system/media for a file named bootanimation.zip Replace it with the one of your choosing (make sure it is named bootanimation.zip), and set permissions to rw_r__r__
Alternately, you can place it in /data/local set the permissions and leave the one in the system partition alone. Use a root enabled file explorer or adb.

Super thanks but how do i do the above "set permissions to rw_r__r__" im feeling kinda stupid now
Are you rooted? If so, the following command will take care of it with adb:
adb shell chmod 0644 /data/local/bootanimation.zip
replace /data/local with /system/media if thats where you placed it
If you don't have adb setup or don't know what it is, take a look at the flashing guide in the wiki. It is invaluable.
