boot animation Q

I've read a couple boot animation threads so far, I have a bootanimation.zip file I want to try out. For whatever reason I cannot understand how I am supposed to get it on my phone. My eris is rooted but I'm not sure what next. Do I need adb? can I run these .bat files floating around here from my sd card? For some reason I can't wrap my head around this and it is frustrating, can anyone clarify what a rooted user needs to have/ what commands to run?
Thanks

The easiest way would be to download EStrongs File Manager from the Market. Put the boot animation on your SD card, then open EStrongs and move the zip into the /System/Media folder. Make sure you only have 1 boot animation in the there. Enjoy.

This does not work. It is not possible to copy from the sd card and put a file in my system folder
**edit, I see I needed to give estrong SU permissions. I got it to work just fine. Thank you.

Glad you got it to work, and you're welcome.

or u can use terminal emulator
su (enter)(to get root permisions)
cp /sdcard/(wherever your bootanimation.zip is) /data/local (enter)
reboot (enter)

You were so sure of yourself though! LOL

Bit of a noob to all this, so work with me please...... I'm trying to replace the Cyanogemod boot animation that came with CELB froyo 2.6 rom. I have a new bootanimation.zip copied to my SD card. I'm using ES File Explorer with SU permissions and it wouldn't let me copy new zip file to: /system/media. Says copy failed. If I try to delete the bootanimation.zip in /system/media, it says file can't be deleted.
So then I went to my terminal emulator and typed:
su (enter)
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local (enter)
reboot (enter)
And now I have not boot animation at all. It shows the bootscreen (3 skateboarding droids) then black screen, then lock screen
Where did I go wrong??
Update: removed bootanimation.zip and there was also a bootscreen.zip from /data/local. REbooted and cyanogemod boot screen came back.
I retried the terminal emulator and it worked!

Just an fyi Sometimes you need to re assign SU permissions to estrongs. Just uncheck and then check the mount syst directory as writeable and it will work. Its kinda like re shareing a folder in windows. Sometimes shares drop for no reason or just need to be re shared.
ps. I dont like using the terminal but thanks for the simple commands, I've seen way to many different ways to change the animation. The above cmd's are simple and easy.

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

Instructions on how to install:-
