Alright starting to get a bit frustrated while trying to put a downanimation on my DHD. I know in Sergio stated in his FAQ that the downanimation and bootanimation can now be found in /data/local and I really liked the coredroid bootanimation but wanted to use my bios one to go with my windows troll splash img.
Anyway I have converted the coredroid boot into a downanimation by changing images from jpg to png and then using the method found in Monx®'s thread to make sure it was zipped properly. But just comes up with a blank screen on reboot or shutdown.
Tried a couple of others and still get a blank screen, so just wondering if any1 else has the same problem?
it comes blank because zip file aint properly zipped... did u changed compression method to store in winrar ? or just send me the stuff and i will get it done for you and save u the hassel
Edit : oh snapp.. just noticed.. the file you pushed to data/local is it named bootanimation or downanimation ? if its downanimation.. then rename it to bootanimation... downanimations are not in data/loca

Thanks for the quick reply. I have attached my coredroid downanimation.zip which I had renamed to downanimation.zip before pushing it. As i said, I made sure compression was set to store.
I first pushed this to /data/local as it says to in Scabes' Coredroid FAQ

Then got a blank screen with both the coredroid downanimation and some other shutdown animations I have found in the DHD theme and apps section.
Then tried the chmod 777 to /system/customize/resource and was getting a blank screen and now cant turn the phone off, just keeps rebooting
EDIT:
couldnt attach downanimation haha

Not a reboot cycle, just wont turn off. I can use the phone but when I try to turn off the phone with power button to either shutdown or reboot, I get blank screen where down animation should b, give it a few seconds and straight away bootanimation comes up with out my splash image.
Used recovery and I'm back to my last backup before I started playing around with with boot/down animations and circle battery mod. Then push bootanimation back now that works.
Have yet to retry the downanimation yet.
Also just wondering does downanimation images have to be .png? or can they be jpg

1. change all the pics to .png format
2. rename the pics to the name of the folder.. in ur case folder is coredroid so name the pics to coredroid_01.png to everyone just change the numbers to the count of the pics
3. after u do that put coredroid folder and desc.txt in one folder.. now zip these two files.. tip zip and compression to store in winrar ... then do the same again tip zip. then chagne to store.. but then in the uper tabs click on files.. and then below see file paths.. change it to donot store file paths..
4. now double click the zip file to open with winrar... and delete all the pics except coredroid folder and desc.txt.. make sure .zip is renamed to downanimation.zip if it isnt already
5. get root explorer and paste it to where ever ur downanimation.zip is and Hoalah!!! Njoy
Can someone help me out?
I am trying to change the shutdown animation.
I have done the following things but white out result.
1 I put custom .png in system/media/ideo/shutdown whiteout the shutdown.qmg.
When i shutdown i get a notification shuttingdown and a spinning circle.
2 i used custom.png and changed the shutdown.qmg
I put in shutdown.qmg 0123456789, 1234567890, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0, 1234567891011121314.
3 I deleted all the .png in system/media/video/shutdown and only the default shutdown.qmg is in the file.
When i shutdown i get the default samsung big S shutdown animation.
When i am shutting down the phone i get a black shutdown screen.
4 i use a sgs2 shutdown.qmg when i shutdown the phone i got the shutdown animation from sgs2
So what am I doing wrong and can someone please help me out with this ?
I have rooted my phone and using a rom from the romkitchen
I'm trying to change qmg file too but I assume the only way to have a go at it is purchasin' Qmage from Quram site.
Unluckily,gingerbread supports only qmg file as shutdown file.
i found this from samsung it makes .qmg theme but not animated qmg

So you can change android 2.2.1 bootdown animation?
Hi, after installing CoreDroid ROM, I wanted to change boot and down animation to stock version, so I extracted needed files from backup ("bootanimation.zip" and "downanimation.zip"), opened Root Explorer, turned on R/W mode, and replaced that files in "data\local" folder. Now, boot animation works, but down animation doesn't (as said in title).
I don't know what's problem, can someone help me? Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I have solved problem - I followed this tutorial and copied file via ADB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942976
