If the animation runs too fast on your phone, edit the desc.txt file in bootanimation.zip and decrease the number 15 to around 8-10 as per your liking

how do i write files in taht directory? ( i downloaded es file explorer/astro file explorer. what should i do? step by step please
Use root explorer.the other 2 you used don't get write permission
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
how do i remove the sound if i had already flash the sound for my boot animation?
use root explorer to browse to /system/customise/resources/ and delete android_audio.mp3
or use adb in command prompt
Code:
adb shell
cd /system/customise/resources/
rm android_audio.mp3
you can always type "ls" after you do /system/customise/resources/ to look for the sound file.
thanks for the quick reply !
my boot animation will hang... but it still can be loaded into android.
any idea how to solve it? i change the framerate from 15 to 10 and it still hang ..
is it one you downloaded or you made? framerate 15 = 15/100th of a second, correct me if im wrong there.
I pasted the file into system->media and on boot the animation was lighting fast so i changed the value from 15 to 8 in that file in the zip, saved and pasted it back into system->media and now i get no boot animation. i then pasted it into data->local and still nothing

ok so i read on XDA that you can get sound on your boot animations. i have put together a droid x boot animation and with your help i got it to "install". now, i was told to edit the "desc" text document to read:
"320 480 22"
p 1 0 android
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
so i did that. then they said to name the mp3 file "Anroid_Audio.mp3" so i did. then they said to put the file into the "bootanimation.zip" where the desc txt document and the part0 and part 1 files are. then they said to copy that and go into data, then local, then paste it. so i did. then they said to reboot the phone and it would work. so i rebooted the phone. and all that happened was a blank screen for a little while and then it went to the homescreen.
anyone have any idea on how to get this to work?
anyone? i really would like to have sound..
Lol. I would like but don't know how to make it work.
seems like no one knows

tried that but then when i opened up Root Explorer on my phone i pasted it into data/local and it said it pasted but it still showed the old bootanimation. tried same with system/media. no luck :/
Hmm idk about installing it that way. Using an update.zip or pushing from ADB might be more effective.
You spelled "Android" wrong in the file name of the mp3. Maybe that's the problem.
I've never added sound to my boots, but I do have a custom boot picture and custom animation. It seems to me that the title in your txt file should refer to the mp3 by the exact file name.
Let me know if you get this working. I'd love to change mine.

why don't you browse through the original rom seeking for bootanimation.zip ?
btw by my own experience changing the original bootanimation.zip through a recovery script (aka update.zip) simply doesn't work so if its your case just do it manually with root explorer.
Hope it helps

I've changed the boot anim a number of times using a zip through recovery. However in these instances I was not the one that compiled the zip so I'm unsure about the exact process.
I belive your boot anim has to be a anim GIF along with a XML file.

On my Android 2.2 (froyo) device, the path to the bootanimation and sound file is:
/system/media/bootanimation.zip
/system/media/android_audio.mp3
Both are at the same folder level. Also, each 'frame' of the animation is a separate .png file in two directories. One directory has the opening part of the animation, the second directory contains just the looping part.

In my bootanimation.zip, my 'part0' folder is named 'android' (the opening part of the animation). There is no entry in the 'desc.txt' file for the audio file, it just sits in the media folder along side the .zip file, not inside it.
I just had an idea that the name of the audio file needs to match the name of the folder that has the first part of the animation. For example, my folder is named android and the audio file is 'android_audio.mp3'. If you're still having problems getting the audio to play, try naming the audio file 'part0_audio.mp3' and see if that works for you.

im not even gonna bother messing with it now. i mean the hd2 is a windows mobile phone yet it can run an android 2.2 rom. im jealous of my dad... and im sitting here with a cliq that still has android 1.5 and yet again moto has delayed the update. im ready to give up on the cliq. its got nothing out there. i mean, ive got it rooted and have a 2.1 rom on it but i just cant handle not having any development for it. but the thing is i just got my cliq from tmobile around april so im not sure if i qualify for an upgrade yet. should i maybe complain to tmoblile about moto being horrible with there updates and im not satisfied with the phone to try and get them to give me a new phone for free?
Im fairly certain you leave the sound file OUT of the bootanimation.zip. Just place it in there, and make sure the desc has the part0 sound thingy...
Didn't the older Android versions have sound in the boot animations?....Just for a brief moment. You could probably download a 1.5 rom, extract the boot animation from it, change the mp3 (and maybe something in the text file) and put it in data/local or system/media (or both) of your current rom.

I have rooted my LG Optimus 2x and have tested it by installing apps only for rooted phones. My phone has a bootanimation from the Swiss carrier Swisscom which is getting on my nerves as it also plays some miserable music. I have downloaded a different bootanimation but whe I try to rename the old bootanimation it says "insuffisient permission"....
anyone can help out with this please? There is also a close animation when turning the phone off.
Much appreciated.
Although you have root permissions you still need to mount the directory that the bootanimation is in with read/write permissions. If you have Root explorer this can easily be done.

astro file cant' change the bootanimation!
u can use "root explorer"!
I'm not entirely sure but i think you dont need to have to change the orginal bootanimation.zip
If you put the new one in data/local/ that should work as well. You should try that before you change stuff around.
Search on market for bootanimation. I changed mine aswell.

Do you need any further help? Or did you fix it
Make sure your bootanimation.zip only runs with 15fps and then put it to your sdcard.
Open up adb shell, and make sure you have root.
now use the following command to copy the new bootanimation to your phone:
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local/bootanimation.zip´
If your bootanimation runs with more than 15fps, you will have to make a flashable zip, and flash it to /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Hallo and sorry for the late reply. I was not able to change the bootanimation. I read that I need to change the name of the existing bootanimation.zip, name the new bootanimation.zip and just put it in the system/media using root explorer. is this correct? I do not think i have the knowledge to check the amount of fps and how to make a flashable zip in case its more than 15fps... sorry but it sounds a bit of rocket sience here..
I have found the bootaniation changer lite on Market.. is this something good? anyone tried it?
Your bootanimation does not need to be 15 fps. I have a 30 fps one in data/local and it works just fine.

Try /system/media
It's either /data/local, /system/media, or /system/customize/resource. Guides need to include this because every ROM is designed differently. Anyway, nice boot animation OP.

Hi, make sure your Root/ES Explorer has permissions. I'm using ES explorer and check the settings/preferences making sure "Up to Root" and "Root Explorer" options are checked. You may wanna download ES Explorer to do this. Also, don't forget to Fix the Permissions using your Recovery or ROM manager just to make sure.

Reboot and still get the Tmobile boot. I don't need a custom ROM also do I? Also, can anyone point me to compatible animations IF that's the problem?
Any ideas?

You can't view that file unless your phone is rooted. But i believe i saw a post that you can still customize bootanimation by using adb to push it or android SDK.

How did you do that ?I mean i understand the part0,part1 folders,desc.txt and saving every frame,first one as 10001.png, the second one as 10002.png, and so on.
I just want to know how do you create the custom animation ?Generally,you can just download a video and extract the frames and the put them in a sequence.But,what if you want to create an animation using your own pic or something like that ?I don't understand how to draw your own frames.How would you do that ?
I edited the Beatles Day Tripper to make a 7 second wav file that replaces the swoosh sound that plays with the AT&T 3G animation.
How to do:
1. Make a backup of the existing
/system/etc/PowerOn.wav file.
2. With any file explorer that can remount system r/w, rename DayTripperPowerOn.wav to
PowerOn.wav and copy the file to
/system/etc folder.
