Hello all,
Attached to this post is an updated version of the BIOS boot animation for your shiny Desire HDs I don't own one myself (just yet at least!), but I was making one for LeeDrOiD's ROMs, and thought it would be good to create a generic one if you are using a different Custom ROM.
This is based off of the original creative/design of frysee! Thanks to him for allowing me to mod this boot animation for the DHD!
I have tested this on my Classic Desire and it seems to work great, so if anyone runs into any issues, please let me know in this thread.
Some things you should note:
bootanimation.zip is within the scar45-desireHD-bios-bootanimation.zip
android_audio.mp3 is also included, which is start up sounds from an old PC
You should be able to replace the originals, either by replacing them in the .zip before flashing, or using S-OFF (or recovery) to replace them after.
Most common path for these 2 files is /system/customize/resource
Previews below were mangled by the forum upload process, but they're perfectly crisp 480 x 800 PNGs within the .zip
Note that this did take me a good while (editing 92 .PNGs), since I couldn't use the classic Desire BIOS generator to make the specs change to the Desire HD, so any donations are greatly appreciated, especially if you get a kick out of this boot animation!
Oh, and if you want to include this boot animation on your website/ROM/etc., just send me a PM first...thanks!
Hope you enjoy!

Hi goran, I don't have a Desire HD myself, but I believe you should look in /data/local to see if the original .zip file is there. If so, simply replace it (you'll need S-OFF, or do it via Recovery using ADB).
Do NOT try and flash the .zip that you downloaded (scar45-desireHD-bios-bootanimation.zip) as it contains another .zip file within, namely 'bootanimation.zip' which is the one that you should replace. Neither .zip files are actually flashable, so you'll probably just get an error if you attempt to. With the provided .zip package that I've attached to this post, you should be able to Google and find the answers as to how to replace it if you're still having difficulties.
Thanks for your interest in this too!
It's quite funky. I had a little chuckle when I saw that apparently the HTC Ace has an i440BX motherboard in it though
ah ok...i have custom lee's rom with soff and recovery...but I cannot find anywhere the bootanimation

THX for the animation.
with estrongs I was able to replace these files.

Just replaced the files and rebooted my DHD.
Always liked the old fashion boot..
Thanks for your work.
It needs to be pushed to data/local/, works well

Astro cannot access these files, you will need root explorer to see and manipulate with it.

there's a beep and such, did u copy the mp3 too?
oh and it's awesome
really want to share with you guys
i searched for a while in desirehd forum, and didn't see a thread about custom transition animation
i guess a lot of us are searching for this =]
this is the original thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849963
but i guess a detail instruction is necessary: (succeded just now)
1. copy "framework-res.apk" (/system/framework/framework-res.apk) to your sdcard
2. open it via 7zip on ur PC
3. Drag the anim folder with the animations (which you can download in the original thread) into /res folder in your framework-res.apk. This will replace the files currently in /res/anim.
4. go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9190418
5. download the attachment - Blank Update.zip.zip
6. Extract "Blank Update.zip.zip" then Open up the update.zip with 7zip
7. Drag your modified framework-res.apk to the "framework" folder in 7zip to overwrite the existing blank framework-res file
8. Close update.zip (agree to any messages about updating the file)
9. Copy update.zip to your sdcard
10. Flash the update.zip via ClockworkMod
havefun ^^
Not working for me...
I'm on an htc sense rom and used UOT kitchen to cook update.zip.
By the way, do you know how to get keyboard display/hide animation on stock rom?
It is far easier just to use MetaMorph and the relevant zip files can be found all over the forum. I will post them if anyone wants them.
Regards.
Anyone knows what files are for Opening and Closing an app? I want to replace only those but don´t know what xmls I have to use!
well, That works for me.
Thanks
Works great for me with Revolution HD.
Thanks

Make sure you have animations enabled in settings >> display >> animations
Great guide! I've been doing this exact same thing for some weeks now on my Leedroid based DHD
One thing i could never get working was the stock android keyboard animation. The one where the keyboard slides up and down. On Sense roms there is no animation. Anybody here managed to get that animation working with Sense?

Nope, I installed the stock android animation files on Sense ROM (Revolution HD), and I have no keyboard animation, so this must be coded somewhere else...

Work like a charm.
take a look this post: http://www.galaxyroot.com/mod-how-to-get-back-the-inputkeyboard-animation/
anyone who know where can i find "\res\values\styles.xml" ?
i guess can get back the keyboard animation in this file.

HOW TO INSTALL BOOT ANIMATIONS
FOR CUSTOM ROMS
1) download your desired bootanimation.
2)rename the file to "bootanimation.zip"
3) Using any root explorer copy/push your bootanimation to /system/media/ or /data/local/
IF YOU ARE ON STOCK ROM>>>>
1) make sure you are fully rooted...use z4root to root the phone and its perminent root,
install busy box from market and also install root explorer from market!
2) Using root explorer SET to R/W delet the original bootanimation.zip from by Navigating to /cust/(what ever folder depending on which firmware you are using)/media.
SO its from CUST to MEDIA!!!!
3)Copy your desired bootanimation.zip to /data/local/
AND BINGO!!
WILL BE ADDING MORE CUSTOM ANIMATIONS

For make new bootanimation, for example, I just have to take frames of a video with the same resolution (480x800)?
We need a precise MB for the zip?

hey guys, i tried changing bootanimation exactly like in the steps on first thread, first i tried to copy bootanimation.zip to syste/media/ and it said u cannot paste here because the file system is read only ,so i went to data/local/ and pasted there ,rebooted, no new bootanimation , i then went back to system/media and changed mount r/o to mount r/w and it pasted rebooted and no new bootanimation
i had been using custom roms but restored nand backup hoping to get my apps back , they came back but my original rom as well
does this method only work on custom roms?
I also checked the site you refer to for more help but didnt really understand how to do that
any help much appreciated thanks

In the stock rom the Ideos checks the cust partition for boot animation. You'll need a custom rom to push the animation to system/media
thanks tila
worked great, thought it was the custom rom, i read on the froyoman forum someone wanted the original bootanimation, i way prefer the custom ones , the android bee rocks, but if u do use original i hope we can still change them ,
love your work , cant wait for froyoman v3 and gingerman

but the boot is still the default, i tried also other flashable boots
and they work smoothly
i am just amazed on the bios boot animation
If u replaced the default bootanimation how can that still appear! U used root explorer? Try putting it in a flashable zip.
Just open the zip of any flashable bootanimation in an winrar/zip archive. Drag and drop the bios bootanimation into it correctly replacing the existing one. Close it and flash.
Don't extract the zip to replace, then u need to sign it.

i tried again flashing other animation

Oh Sry I have not tried that animation, if I do in future then I'll let u know...n don't call me sir
sure, i am looking in a guide, how to make a flashable.zip in cwm
maybe i can make it work, maybe.
Is it possible to put a music with the boot animation just like in Squadzone's CM7 RC 1? The folder in which the bootanimation.zip was stored also had a <I-forgot-the-name>.ogg with the same sound that played during the boot.

It works for me on tj's cm7.
I've attached an ldpi version...simply replacing with rootexplorer works.
but all images should be resized and edited to make it perfect, which i didn do...but changing the desc is good enough i think.

ohh! i was about to do that but right now my exams are going on and would only get time after 26th.
-------------------------------------------
Just finished installing a new theme (Evangelion NERV theme) and I want to customize my bootanimation aswell. I put the bootanimation.zip file in /system/media and rebooted. There was no animation, so I checked various sources online to try and find an answer (http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-change-customize-create-android-boot-animation-guide/) but I couldn't find an answer to my question.
I changed the H*W in the desc file, nothing changed, still a black screen where the bootanimation should be -.-.
Any help? please and thank you
EDIT
forgot to mention that in the the desc file, the H*W was set at 320*320, I changed it to 480*800. Don't know if this does anything or not. Apparently lower resolution bootanimations should run fine on higher end devices according to this source:
"As a rule, a boot animation made for a lower resolution device will run fine on a high resolution one but it will be centered on the screen, with the extra screen space around it not being used. Using a high resolution boot animation on a low resolution device will result in the boot animation not fully displaying on the screen, with its outer parts being cut off due to being outside the screen’s bounds."
After placing the bootanimation, did you set the permission for it?

Yea I set full permissions on /system /media and bootanimation.zip. I re-zipped the the bootanimation in STORE mode. I changed the H*W to 480*800 and once on 480*480 because that was the default that came with cyanogenmod. I did everything that I could find online/think of. Hopefully someone has an idea, I could try posting the bootanimation if anyone is interested in having a look.
Thanks

hey mate sorry for late response... i see you have on folder with named as part another with something else.
I would suggest you to download any running boot animation and check out its folder structure or just move ur images into it and delete all the images from that and while zipping do not use compression.
Hope this helps.
