Be Rooted via DaG's root and rename your Boot Animations to sanmi.zip and copy it to System/Media
And reboot

I think his not kernel rooted, only system rooted like me, as for now, no way to change bootanimation with system root.

also, in a few hours (whenever the pull request goes through) i should have a section up in ROM Manager with custom bootanimations.
Would that come through as an update on the market? Or will we have to update rom manager ourselves?

Found the Galaxy S bootanimation i was looking for! Thanks.
But, when i put it in the \system\media folder, and reboot, all i get is a black screen? Any ideas as to why? does it need to be in a different folder? (and yes i renamed the file to bootanimation.zip)

As long as the kernel you've got installed supports bootanimation.zip files it should work. However, I placed my zip in the /data/local folder. Either should work though, I think.

Using Macnut R13 w/ JK6 modem. Was working fine with his bootanimation... but with mine even in the data/local folder, all iget is a black screen? any other ideas?
did you edit the desc.txt file? and how did you zip the file? using store?
also if you can upload the bootanimation.zip I can look at it and see if it works.

No i didnt edit anything.
Here is the file attached, that i renamed to bootanimation.zip on my phone.
Doesn't work. I had the same issue and yes I know how to change bootanimation.zip because I've just done it three times prior to trying this file.
Great list, thank you.
Would you happen to know if there's any way to preview these before use?
Also, I've never changed my boot animation before, I've read elsewhere in this thread that you have to have a kernel that supports it.
I'm currently running 2.1 Vibrant stock, only thing I've done is rooted it so I could have access to things I wanted like tethering, screenshots, etc.
Would you happen to know if I can change the boot animation through Clockwork Rom Manager the way my phone is right now?
I'm running Axura 2.1, does anyone know if I'm able to change the boot animation on this? I've tried it already using root explorer to transfer the file but when I do it gives me an error that says the file is only read only.
Is it the ROM or something I need to do to transfer the file properly?

What file explorer do you suggest and how would i go about doing that?
I have been searching for two days for this, both here and elsewhere, so forgive me if it's been right under my nose and I failed to find it.
I am trying to find the stock Android boot animation that began with, I believe, Cupcake. That is, the Android logo in a sort of blue-hued metallic texture. I want this for my Droid. If anyone knows where I can find this, given Droidboots is ****ed, I'd be very thankful.
completely removing the "bootanimation.zip" will default you to the "stock" android boot animation
What are the chances that I would be looking for the exact same boot animation? I haven't had any luck either.

+1. Go into /system/media, at least that is where it is on the heroc, with a file manager, root explorer is a fine choice, and delete the file named bootanimation.zip. reboot and enjoy the classic goodness.

Yup this works.
Even works on Sense ROMs.
It must be built in default when no customized carrier one exists.
Where do I get a copy of the default / classic "Android" boot animation?
Can someone post it on here?

for custom roms it should be in /system/media if you cant find it there use root explorer's search function to find it

In framework-res.apk . The images.
Can anyone post the download for the animation and pretty much how to make it my boot animation? I'm alright with reflashing a rom, currently on Bionix 1.3.1 by Team Whiskey.
Thanks!
Don't expect others to just give you things.
Just so you learn...
Download one of the NERO roms ( i'm guessing nero is where this boot animation is )
Then extract it on your computer
then go to system/media on the files
take out
bootanimation.zip
and put that on your SD CARD on phone
now replace the bootanimation.zip from the nero to w/e you want.
Just make sure your rom supports boot animations some don't.
PM me if you have trouble following his steps.
You will have to use Root Explorer from the market to move the bootanimation.zip file from your sd card to the system/media folder.

Correct, but Root Explorer is paid only.
Use ASTRO if you want a free and same-as-root-explorer-way i use root explorer, tbh it looks and is simpler.
Scratch that last post. I just figured it out.

Simply replace and set permissions.

unzipped the file myself and replaced bootanimation.zip in /system/media/ and it worked flawlessly (changed permissions to rw-r--r--)
good job nottach!

I hate to be a noob, but I just want to be safe. Can you change boot animations on stock rooted or do you need to have a custom rom flashed. Is it really as easy as copy and pasting. Along with renaming your old animation.zip

Yup, it's that easy. This was one of the first things I tried after rooting. Just make sure the file permission are set correctly on the new bootanimation.zip folder or you will get a default "android" bootanimation.
Should be:

Thanks a bunch. Just don't want anything bad happening since my Captivate bricked
Thank you Notach!!!! my Atrix looks so cool!!
Love this boot animation. Best one I've seen by a phone builder.
Any way to make this a live wallpaper? Can't find where the foldr is in root explorer.

Do you still have the captivate? If so I may be able to fix it for you and if I can't I know Josh from mobiletechreviews.com probably can. I would try for the cost of shipping with no guarantees, Josh charges a reasonable fee but it would be worth it to have it working for a backup. Have you tried using a jig on it to get into download mode?
You can pm me and hopefully if you still have it we can get it running for you again.

Sorry I'm a little confused on how to get this working. I'm on CM7. Downloaded it. Went to root explorer and cord and pasted it to system/media and set permission but when I rebooted it was standard CM7 boot up. Did I need to extract the zip to media folder? Sorry for the confusion never messed with boot img before
Edit. Ok I tried extracting and I got a folder named bootanimation and I fixed permissions on that one also and rebooted but no luck :-\

I'm using CM10, and used several other bootanimations like the one in the link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734434
I worked when I flashed it in recovery, I also used just zip file that I placed in system/media, and changed permissions, they all worked. However I cannot make these strange files of samsung work. Any ideas?

I understand that, but when I place them into media folder and reboot the phone default android bootanimation shows up. I tried to change permission and no luck. Maybe it is just because I use CM10?
