you don't need to delete the old, just flash the zip you have from recovery and reboot

You sure you don't just toss the zip into system/media? If flashing don't work, try that.

Boot animation changing

is any way for changing boot animation of legend in a stock rom ?
If you have rooted your phone, flash it with ROM Manager. Some boot animation examples here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6441263&postcount=3

can i install them with fake flash ?
Not sure what fake flash is (rooted my Legend yesterday ) but I guess that fake flash is what Rom Manager does for you?
"Install it like a rom" it says on the page I linked, so I guess it should work. Remember to backup before you try funny stuff!

thanks bro
but I afraid of bricking my phone , maybe this boot animation just work on rodigezstyle Rom
I use the first one on my Legend. Got the "almost stock ROM with root access" from this forum
Just male a backup with ROM manager when You flash from SD.
If it trashes your ROM, just boot in recovery, press volume up+power, and flash update.zip. now clockwork recovery launches and you can restore.

Noob question:
I have installed Azure 1.01 on my Legend.
Can I install these boot animations on top of that, or are they complete roms - will they overwrite Azure?
Cheers.

No, they won't overwrite it. Just make sure that you don't perform a wipe...

Alright nice one. Might try them out.
Do you know if I can get them through Rom manager?

[MOD] Aperture Science boot & shutdown

So... I got bored, and decided to make a custom boot animation/sound & shutdown animation/sound based on one of my favorite video games Portal.
Then I decided that having it as a CWM update would be so much easier if people wanted to use it. So, for everyone who wants to try it out... http://hardcorepooka.com/android/ApertureScienceUpdate.zip
Flash the update through CWM...
1. Choose "install zip from sdcard"
2. Choose "choose zip from sdcard"
3. Select ApertureScienceUpdate.zip
4. Choose yes.
5. Enjoy your new startup/shutdown
Keep in mind you'll need a kernel that supports bootanimation.zips for the boot animation to work. The rest will work without such a kernel.
Disclaimer: I take no responsibility if you brick your phone, burn down your house, or any other bad stuff that might happen. You do this at your own risk. I and others have tested this and it works fine for us. Your mileage may vary.
Updated: Also, I remade the boot animation in white as well.... http://hardcorepooka.com/android/white-bootanimation.zip
This is just the boot animation .zip, no sound, no shutdown animation.
Aw, the file is no longer hosted
Can anyone post another link to it?

it's available within Rom Manager, under SonofSkywalker3's Blackhole custom ROM
The link above doesn't work, and I have cheapo Rom Manager... can someone fix the link?
Try PMing Pooka. I tried downloading it from Rom Manager but got a "Download error"
I installed this, and now when I flash a new boot/shutdown animation the aperture science logo still shows up at the end of the shutdown animation. The boot animation works perfectly though. Any idea how to fix this? I've flashed a deletebootani.zip, but that didn't seem to fix it either.

No luck
I tried PMing him but I got no response :/
Anyone have it from when they downloaded it?
I want this... somebody please reupload. been trying to find one of these since I got my phone.

Original link updated. Added white boot animation as well. Sorry guys, been away from XDA for a while.
HTC Aria support?
Is it possible I could install this on my Aria with the Liberated FR008 ROM? Thanks!
P.s. I was thinking of installing it manually and doing it through Root Explorer so I could save my originial boot animation.

The white one you can install manually. The CWM update you can just extract the boot animation out of and install manually.

You need to remove the files from /system/media/video/shutdown
The problem is that my shutdown animation has more frames than whatever shutdown ani you have replaced it with.

Which one? The white one you just move the zip to /data/local/bootanimation.zip
For the orange one you need to open up the update zip and remove the bootanimation.zip from it, then move it to /data/local/
Where is the boot and lockscreen shown in this utube vid with the sound ect.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg23Tvkjonc
It kicks butt and I so want it!
Ok got the boot screen to work but my phone just boots to fast for it to have time to play lol sound and everything works and I checked it as I turned off the phone and it played sound and animation, the only thing missing is the lockscreen from the vid anyone know where to get it?
Lockscreen is from the theme I had at the time... Frost's Remix NexTheme I believe... should be somewhere in this forum.

Thanks! very much for the help
Would these work on a Nexus One or Desire HD, sound included?

possible to change initial boot logo?

the note's initial boot logo is ugly as hell. I'm talking about the one that says "Galaxy Note GT7000" or whatever. Is it possible to change that to something else after rooting?
You need to root your Note and then use an app like ROM Toolbox PRO
After root put the bootanimation zip file in data/media and reboot..voila

I'm not talking about the samsung animated boot screen, but the text that comes before that....rom toolbox can do that? i think what you(sumeshd) are saying is just the animation

Thanks for the reply, but I think you got me wrong; I already made my personal bootanimation but I want to know how to install it from ROM Toolbox Pro as I am on stock ROM and replacing the bootanimation.zip files don't work.

Stock ROM guys, stock ROM, we are looking for a way to modify the bootanimation on stock rom.
On custom ROMs it is very easy, we already got that.

What ROM did you attempt to flash?
Did the ROM's author have ay specific instructions about flashing and did you follow them?
Did you attempt to flash a stock RUU/ROM?

When I flash a ROM I don't get to the boot animation I'm stuck on the HTC splash screen. Also when I flash the ROM and do a backup with 4ext usually the backup file name is date.ROM name but 4ext can't recognize the ROM name it says unknown. Is it not flashing properly?

Do you have the latest version of 4Ext recovery? Have you tried flashing the boot.img manually in FASTBOOT USB mode?

[Q] Problem with Bootanimation and Maclaws's 4.4.2 CyanogenMod 11.0

Hi, i recently flash my rom and everything went ok but when i tried to change the bootanimation to the samsung stock, putting bootanimation.zip in the system/media directory i got a error, now only shows a black screen after the Boot Logo and then the phone starts without problem.
Any suggestion to restore the bootanimation? Original for the custom rom or maybe the samsung stock.
Thanks!

Reflash the CM11 ROM and wipe dalvik cache, this will bring back the CM boot animation and for a original boot animation, why not the original KitKat one? I'll look for a link and put it here as soon as I find it.

I didn't create this or even modify it. I can't find the link I downloaded it from and so I am sorry I can not credit the one responsible for it. If you know who it is, thank him.
This is the one I use, put it in /storage/sdcard1 and flash it through recovery.
