ok after do more research for this. since my device only has 10mb left under /system/media, there is no way i can put this 32mb bootanimation into /system/media. Then i try to put bootanimation zip goes to /data/local, and it works since this /data/local has more 100mb left. I use Root Explorer to copy and paste.
Edit: i don't have bootanimation.zip file in /system/media folder anymore.

How to Install:
1-back up your Rom just in case.
2-copy the downloaded file to the Dir of the SD card.
3- using Root explorer navigate to System/Customize/resource and rename the original boot animation there(anything bootanimationold).
make sure to click on mount R/W for root explorer first.
4- copy and replace the old one.(make sure the new one named bootanimation)
5- make sure to set permission for the new bootanimation (same like the old one.All read/owner Read,write)

Fantastic work. Amazing, best boot animation for VU. Can you also make shutdown animation?

Great job, looks so professional, its the best so far...

very very very good job

I installed on my Virtuous 2.35, but not working. Maybe due to the theme ... I will try to restore to non theme version and retry.

The Fix

2-copy the downloaded file to the Dir of the SD card.
3- using Root explorer navigate to System/Customize/resource and rename the original boot animation there(anything bootanimationold).

4- copy and replace the old one.(make sure the new one named bootanimation)
5- make sure to set permission for the new bootanimation (same like the old one.All read/owner Read,write)

[bootanimation] Glitch boot

Here is a little boot animation I whipped up for anyone that is a fan of the Glitch kernel...
This is the first bootani that I have ever made so bare with me...
I borrowed the intro from aokp boot animation and recolored it a bit then created the rest from Glitch images.

2) Move file to SD Card
3) Using file manager of choice copy and paste bootanimation.zip to data/local. Or you can put it in system/media (I rename the old bootani with a .old at the end.)
4))Reboot and thank me if it works
A .mtz version for MIUI was requested so I put one together. Let me know if it works

Nice!
Alternatively, you can place the file in /data/local. This has a few advantages:
1. you don't need to remount as read-write (and you won't see a "readonly filesystem" error if you forget to)
2. it stays put until you do a full data wipe
5. three, sir!
3. it over-rides, rather than replaces, whatever is in /system/media ... including angry pink unicorns

Thanks for the heads up on data/local. I had read that somewhere but wasn't sure how that would work so I did a little research. Im just a road construction worker with a useless art degree

I added a full screen version in case anyone wants it...

Sounds legit. Thanks for posting this

Noob question...how do I change read-write to /system/media? Thought it was MOUNT data in CMW, but that does not seems to work.

Sorry if I'm a little confused by your question but are you trying apply this boot animation? If so, then just use a file manager like root explorer or astro file manager to copy the downloaded bootanimation.zip to the data/local folder.

I assumed that astro and the other similar apps provided access to the necessary file locations but I was wrong.
Try this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree
It is essentially the same as root explorer. Just find the downloaded bootanimation.zip and copy. Then find the data folder. Then find the local folder and hit paste. That's it. Reboot... cross fingers, and enjoy your new boot animation.
But after that, get back on here and hit the thanks button or it will not work again.

I used root explorer with no issues. It will have to be named bootanimation.zip. you can either rename your existing boot ani file, move it, or delete it.

Doesn't seem to want to work. I extracted the RAR to make the bootanimation.zip file, put it into /system/media, change the permissions, reboot, and get a black screen where there should be a boot animation. Does the same thing when I try to install it via AOKP's boot animation installer too.

The Spice Rack - Zipthemer Mods and how to build them from your phone.

OP is WIP
This thread is inspired by the Candy Shop threads in the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, and Nexus 7 sections. Big thanks to Matthew for helping me learn to build these mods. After I got the concept down, I figured out I could build Zipthemer mods directly from my phone. I thought I would share how to do that with the rest of the community. This is not a tutorial on how to use Zipthemer, but I will link to one once I get this organized. I'm using a lot of images so I hope this is pretty clear. Now, without further delay...
First thing you will need is a file explorer with root access and read/write permissions. In this guide I will be using ES File Explorer, but any should work. Using the file explorer, you will navigate to /system and find the system apps you want modify. Most of these will be found in either system/app, or system/framework.
You will want to copy (not cut) the apps and paste them somewhere on the sd storage. You will then want to extract them so you can see what is inside them. Once extracted there will be a folder of the same name as that app.
When you open that folder you will want to navigate to the res folder. Inside this folder you will see several drawable folders. Different devices, and sometimes different roms place the image you want to edit in different folders. Also, some images have a normal and inverted folder. The inverted folder is for the dark themes included in the rom, like dark carbon, dark stalk, the real dark slim, ect. It may take some searching to find the image you want to change. To start with, you can use any of the zips posted in the Candy Shop threads to start with. Then all you will need to do is change your image, or possibly add a different folder (or rename the one that's there). I will be using an existing mod I made (Phone Mod in the pics) and changing the image in this tutorial. The mod changes the picture on the call screen for contacts with no picture assigned. I did the entire mod from my phone, including editing the pic (though some images may require more precise editing that needs to be done on a pc). I used a wall paper from Zedge, changed the size using Picsart, then ES File Explorer to finish the mod.

}

I didn't remember to screenshot the name change of the phone mod folder that i started with, but I renamed phone mod to droideye unknown before doing the compress step. Hope that isn't to confusing.
Now you see that you can make mods for you phone directly from your phone. Cool, right?! I will try to clean this up more soon. I'm impatient and trying to get the images and text in a manner that doesn't look thrown together takes a little time. But I will work on it.

I believe so. You can edit it if needed to direct images to another app. But I have used the same mod on different devices without issue.

I believe so. You can edit it if needed to direct images to another app. But I have used the same mod on different devices without issue.

This post will be moved to the OP once it is completed. I didn't want to remove the images until I had redone the instructions.
First things first, thanks @matthew0776 for getting me started. He helped me learn to make these mods, and allowed me to use his zips as templates. Check out his work in the Candy Shop threads for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7, Nexus 4, and HTC ONE. His work is top notch, and you will find others offering their own as well. With the guide I've provided, you can take any of the mods you find there, unzip, replace the images with your own, and rezip. Be sure to send him some thanks (click the button, don't just type it please).
Now on to business. A few things you will need, a file explorer with root access including read/write ability (I use ES File Explorer), and an image editor. The read/write is so you can copy system apps if you want to search for your own images to try and mod. You can copy system apps and paste them elsewhere, then extract them to see the image folders. For more detailed image editing you will need to use a pc, but for basic things Picsart or similar will suffice. I also use online-image-editor.com to do basic transparency work and image overlays. You can do this from your mobile browser. But understand, this is not a tutorial on how to edit images, so you are on your own for that. I'm not that great at it myself. Also, if you are unfamiliar with zipthemer, @ZubaZ made a great video on that here.

A little something I'm working on. Just chose the image to play with but wanted to test the mod. It only works in dark mode right now, I haven't tracked down the png for normal mode yet (if it is a png).
