I have gotten this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1296524 to work on my OG Droid.
However, putting the bootanimation.zip into system/media does not seem to do the trick. Does anyone know how to get the ICS boot animation working on the flyer?
Bootanimations go in :
system/customize/resource.
Make a backup first.

Great. This works. Its quite speedy then laggy ... however it works.
Would it be this easy to make your own boot animations? I mean all you need is a one line script and a series of images...?
UPDATE:
if you edit desc.txt to:
600 1024 24
p 0 0 part0
the lag gets a bit better

Hey guys,
I am posting this link to this sweet boot animation that usmc7356 created. The problem is that he is not able to get it running on the XOOM. Any help is appreciated. Here is the link the XOOM forums:
"My First XOOM Boot Animation"
name it bootanimation.zip and place it in the system/media folder. should run fine
edit: no luck. after extracting the zip, i noticed another the first file is named bootanimation as well. extracted those contents and rezipped them/named it bootanimation.zip. therefore once you open the bootanimation, it goes straight into the desc and the part0 folder. still no luck. ill dig around and see whats going on. no promises as i am no good at coding but we'll figure it out. stock boot ani sucks lol.
brain fart and i deleted the old boot ani. can someone post this please? thanks!

old and deleted
No dice pimp. I even tried just replacing pngs. Your desc file is right on far as I can tell. Idk man, may be the file size. I compressed the images as much as I could w/o shrinking the img size, including the zip itself. No dice there either.

Brain fart number two. We do not have a custom kernel that allows for custom boot animations yet lol.

This won't even work w/ the OC kernel. The person who made this has the OC kernel and it is not working on his either. It is weird as the bootanimation file is exactly the same as his. The file google put on there is nothing special.

@bigrushdog. The person who made this also found a file in system/bin that is a bootanimation shell file. I opened it and it is all a garbelled mess. I wonder if this might be what is controlling the boot animation file. Since I don't have root access I couldn't open it in text editor but that probably wouldn't have made a difference anyway.
guys, custom boot animation works just fine. all you had to do was change the root of zip from /bootanimation to /part0 and desc. the content should be in root, not in another folder. Posting link in a sec.
Here ya go, courtesy of bishop72
btw, this bootanimation is wicked!
Awesome!!! Now how do we install this
I just dragged and dropped it into the system/media folder . It does work (renamed old one).
i popped the bad boy into Data/local with root explorer and it works just fine
Any chance someone could upload a video of this in action?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBX2OY2wT_E quick video i did from my DX.
That looks awesome! But does it always take over 30 s to boot??? I haven't played with my Xoom a lot yet so I can't remember
Looks great, but I have a suggestion.
Make the data to the right load slower, and once it gets to the Invidia logo, let it sit (maybe with a "Starting Android" notification flashing somewhere) until the XOOM fully boots. It looks odd as a loop.
Otherwise, it's really well done.
It's only 512 x 256 pixels, very fuzzy. Am I missing something?
very nice man. hmmmm. can the xoom play sound during but up??

This is a much cleaner and in my opinion better looking boot animation.
Here's the original file with a link to where i found it
I can't do it now, but I'll make a flashable bootanimation in a few hours if you're interested.
Lol I thought this was official. Anyway it's a unofficial boot animation of cm9 though it is quite nice and a bit cleaner.
But imo I think the official is a bit more epic. Anyway made a flashable for you.
download
-----------
CM9Unofficial
imo this is the best one!
this looks great, alot cleaner than the original. Is it possible to make a smoother/higher fps version of this boot animation? It kinda lags on my atrix, and the Low Quality version of the official didnt, i'd love to have a smooth version of this one
Thanks all.
Very nice boot animation in my opinion
I might if I have time

Installing the boot animation
For those who dont want to wait for a CWM file,
Browse the phone using Root Explorer and mount the system as R/W
Go to System/Media/ and replace the boot animation file in that folder.
For safety copy the original bootanimation.zip file to a different location preferably SD Card.
I already made a CWM file, check the 2nd post

copy to /system/media, delete CID and rename just bootanimation.zip
Thank you, just what I needed for my Note!
A lot of people don't like the new mascot but I think the boot animation is better than the older one.

I hate to be all "noob-ish" about this, but I keep trying to get this sucker to work with my OnlyOne Rom and it keeps reverting back to the standard boot animation. What am I missing? Do I need to do something with the kernel?
Cool post, thanks. Any chance it's can be resized to fit the whole screen?

No need for that, just go into desc.txt and change the resolution from "720 1280" to "800 1280", save and re-zip.
Thank you for the hard work and post. I love the boot animation. However, I refuse. Screw Cyd or Cid. Andy is where it's at.
anyway anybody could do this in black and white?
thanks, finally found 720p version. But it is so lag on my nexus s

I tried to changed the resolution from "800 1280" to "480 800" for my nexus s. And I found animation lost, only black background after I changed the des.txt file

What compression profile did you use to zip? Try zipping it using storage profile ie. no compression.
The Cyanogenmod team released a new boot animation for CM10. The nice thing about it is that its not labeled with the cyanogenmod version number. Its just a general cyanogenmod animation. So people like us who only have version 9 can use it still and it will still look like it belongs. I looked at the files and dont think there is a size for us or if it would even work for us. I have tried changing the bootanimation before and it bootlooped my phone due to memory and graphic issues our ROM has. So this would have to be looked in to and may need to be edited for our resolution if anyone wants to try.
You can go here to check it out.

Just to add to this, I tried the one labeled 480 in the vertical folder and it worked. Just put it in system/media and change permissions.
Noob here, how do I change permissions?

can someone make a SPC_bootanimation.zip of the Jelly bean nexus style boot animation?
Probably, question should havebeen in themes and apps, speaking of theres a thread there about making your own boot animations theres even a person that will make one for you, if you ask,,,,but you gotta read to find him,,,

if you find one of it from the galaxy nexus, one x, or anything with our same screen resolution, ill make one up for you.
or ill find it myself later. if you do fine one leave a link to the thread
Edit: I was going to take a flashable zip for an animation already made and just throw the new animation in it but since goo.im is all funky i can't dl one. once i can ill send you a message
