Download ROM Toolbox from the Play Store. Then once you've downloaded some other boot animations, you'll be able to use ROM Toolbox to install them properly.

[CheckROM V6]Boot Animation problems ??

As in the title I'm on CheckROM V6 and used the Kitchen Pro to change my boot animation to the Android zaps Apple Animation , now it worked the 1st time but now has reverted back to the SGS2 boot animation BUT with the Android zaps Apple sound ?????
Any ideas?, from an obvious noob (who has searched 1st)
Have you install new theme from kitchen? Sometime if you installa a new theme, for example ics domination, boot animation is replace with ics boot animation. Then you need to reflash your favourite boot.
however, try to reflash boot animation.
tryed that and still nothing???
Download from the Kitchen: Theme Restore Package V2. Flash it manually doing wipe cache/dalvik. Reboot. Now reflash your favourite boot animation.
in the kitchen there is "no boot sound" mod or something!
it seems Im stuck on speedmod kernal (which does'nt support boot animations iirc) I'v flashed NEAK via kitchen but nothing , infact I can flash anything via kitchen WTF???
sorted it , had to flash NEAK manualy and all is well again
carry on with your lives , igore the noob
The problem was in the boot sound. If you wasnt able to flash a kernel...ehm...

Bootanimation doesnt change

I installed a couple of custom roms that have custom boot animations and they display beautifully. However I decided to go with clean rom which has the stock bootanimation and I've been trying to change it with a custom one but it never changes. I used the root explorer method, doesnt work, I downloaded one of those utilities on the market to change bootanimation, when I hit preview current boot animation it display my custom one, but when I reboot or even re-import the custom one and reboot it displays the stock one.
I searched but I cant find an answer. Help please? How is it even reading the stock animation with the custom file replacing it?
EDIT: I thought to mention I am using a P7510 16GB

[HELP] My boot animation gone dark!!!

From this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2179849
I installed a custom sound pack without awareness if it will work with my PACman Rom and then I flashed it back with his stock and here goes my boot animation screen gone dark.
But the main point is I tried to install custom boot animation with CWM recovery but it's appear to be failed so I installed it via Boot Animation Root app, it says installed but when I do a reboot it still stay the same black screen. I've tried many custom boot in it download page but non of them worked.
Am I missing anything? Please help, Thanks

Stock ROM but with modded kernel

I have installed CPU analyser, and with stock ROM I think the slowest it goes is 300mhz, WIth a modded ROM it slows down to 110mhz. So I'd like to use modded kernel with stock ROM (I've found no ROM's to be as quick or stable as stock)
Is it possible to have stock LK1 firmware, but with rafa's modded kernel? My procedure is
1) Recover LD1 firmware with ODIN
2) Reboot update LK1 in KIES
3) add super user. Boots, make calls etc
4) Apply kernel and modules. Boot and lost IEMI. I have tried restoring IEMI from my backup in galaxy toolbox, rebooted. But it still doesn't work.
Am I doing something wrong, or does the stock ROM not support modded kernel/modules in anyway?
Also if I do get it working, do I need some kind of CPU/battery saver or are the routines built into the kernel, no other apps are needed? I tried one app, it seems to work but it keeps on popping up with a message that it's using superuser priv, so it's quite annoying.
flash modules of kernel after flashing the kernel without rebooting in between!
this way u won't loose imei!!
whenever superuser permission message come up, there's an option below to remember the choice, click it and then message won't appear again!
ah so flash kernel, then modules without rebooting? I'm pretty sure a couple of guides say flash kernel, reboot (go straight back into recovery) then flash modules.
which specific (filename) kernel and modules to use with stock LK1 ROM?
201303051129-E3-boot.img
and
201303051129-modules
did that, emergency calls only! arggh
Try flashing modules after reboot.. Flashing modules should solve imei problem!

Installed bootanimation and now it's bricked?

UPDATE: OK I re-installed the Omega ROM again and the default custom animation is running, looks like it will be OK now, so I won't bother trying to change it to a custom animation. I will update post if it doesn't work. Thanks!
I thought I had to install a custom boot animation via CWM.
So I did after I installed Custom Boot Loader via CWM aswell
It said Installation Aborted in the log and when I rebooted, it has a TINY DOT on the top left of screen and rest is black.
I read on Google that to install a custom boot animation I need to rename the file .zip correctly and place it in a folder.
Obviously I did it the wrong way by using CWM!
