I have been looking around and have seen some different apps that say they can change it, and other hacks to do it.
What is the easiest way to change the animation boot screen?
Currently right now when I boot up, I see the HTC Quietly Brilliant image, and then a blink and it shows the same thing, but animated. The animated one I want to change.
You must be rooted to perform this otherwise it won't work.
I think that 'boot animation changer' can handle it.

Yes you can
Theirs also an option to import any other anime you download from within the app
Yes, I know all that.
I am asking what the quickest and easiest way to do it is.
And how well does that App work with the Desire?

unless your using a rom that has symlinked the bootanimation.zip to data/local as aposed to /system/customise/resorce/ there is no app that can change the bootanimation.zip, you will have to do it manually using adb
Didn't he just say boot animation changer can do it?

unpack the .zip and look inside, see if bootanimaton.zip is in data/local or system/customise/resorce
So I found this fantastic boot animation, and decided I wanted to change. I searched around, and found a method where you replaced 'bootanimation' in system/bin and changed permissions to 777. It did not work. Then I tried the old, Samsung firmware method and it worked!
Here are the steps (using Root Explorer):
1. Find a suitable bootanimation.zip
2. Place it in data/local
3. Reboot!
You can of course place it there using any other method. No need to modify any permissions. It should work.
Thanks dude

An alternate location /system/media is used if there is no bootanimation in /data/local .

Also Boot animation at /data/local overrides boot animation at /system/media .

Ah.. So it is basically like a 'clean slate'. You mod it the way you want. Plus if you're okay with having the stock thingy, as rebooting phones is a very rare activity in daily, normal usage, it saves at least an MB of space.
I'm using absolute system in market..can change boot animation and fonts too..its work on sga

And this works with CM7 too, right? Needs root?
EDIT: Checked the app. Nice alternative, if you want to avoid the hassles of manually changing bootanimation.zip.

That would be on General.
you can edit even files in .zip file to make a style bootanimation
Quite useful. Thanks!

u can try to connect ur phone with com by using usb cable. Check whether adb shell is able to run. If it can run, ur phone should be able to recover by replacing boot animation.

Do u have any nandroid backup? restoring is the easiest way. May I know which thread u followed?
What I did to change boot animation is to change 2 files, i.e. bootanimation and samsungani under /system/bin/
then put in the bootanimation.zip into /system/media and rename it to sanim.zip.

ok~ if u have CWM recovery, simply flash a new ROM. Else, u can use odin to flash.
You only have white boot sceen right? after apply boot animation mod? And your phone still operate well?
No need to re-flash it, *boring
If you use custom boot animation mod before. You can delete bootanimation and samsungani in system/bin
And delete sanim.zip in system/media folder
this problem cause by wrong in setting permission in bin file or the boot animation doesn't have correct size.

Did you mean some other step other than 9? No trick to it, just place your image in the same folder on your PC as the fastboot.exe
I use Logo Me as strumcat mentioned.
Yes

Good stuff. Placing it there just prevents you from having to type or paste the full path to the image.
Edit: I'd make doubly sure this method works with the GN, it can be sensitive to image size IIRC.

That will not work on the Galaxy Nexus.
LogoMe is one option. I'm sure there is a way to do it via dd, but I haven't seen anyone post how to.
