It's the Ice Cream Sandwich Nyandroid flying leaving a trail of rainbows!
This is the first boot animation I have ever made and I apologize if it's crappy or choppy. I will try to to make it smoother over time and I will include other versions as well.
How do you install this?
Root Explorer method:
1. Download bootanimation.
2. Place the bootanimation.zip on root of your SD card.
3. Make a copy of the bootanimation and name it sanim.zip and move that to your SD card as well.
4. Open root explorer.
5. Navigate to system/media
6. Select Mount R/W (top right in Root Explorer, on by defauly in ROM Toolbox) then either delete, or move existing bootanimation.zip and sanim.zip
7. Navigate back to sdcard, then copy or move bootanimation.zip to system/media and then repeat with sanim.zip
Thanks to Just_s for the instructions on installing a bootanimation!
Please tell me what you think and feel free to leave suggestions.
HAHA looks great so far on my phone. It's a little too fast right now but great start!

Bootable Zip w/ Nyan Sound
Here is a zip version that can be flashed in CWM with the Nyan sound as well. I used the animation from this thread and found the sound and then put them into a zip from jerdog's boot animation. Seems to work for me so here it is if anyone else wants it.

Add any custom boot animation (there are two available: cyanogen and G2 edited stock animation) to system/media. Back up the current one first. Just use adb, terminal emu, or any root file explorer. Enjoy insta-boot, lol!

i just got the boot animation up and running (stock g2 animated). i put it in data/local though...as instructed. what is the difference by putting it in these seperate locations and do i need to have it in both or just system/media? i am confused.

Either location works but I haven't tested data /local position. Delete the one from there and make sure the edited cyan or edited G2 stock is in system/media. Having them in two places is just redundant...

we were all instructed to put it there from the other thread containing the boot image.
having the image in 2 placed is redundant. having an OS read boot images from 2 possible locations is also redundant.
copying the boot image to data/local will also put it in system/media. which is weird.
deleting the boot image from data/local will cause it to not display image on boot. even though its still in system/media

I do it this way everytime. Way faster than flashing, or pushing via adb.
OK Glad I found this thread.. I too want the dancing droid and cant not get it to work.. I am using sense ROM and I have tried the moving it to the sytem/media.. doesnt work.. I have tried pushing it via "pushboot" still doesnt work.. I get a black screen..
So when you say flash it via recovery.. Just a manual flash..
1)boot into recovery
2)flash system via zip
3) choose bootanimation
4) reboot
Is that all??
I also created sound for this as well. the sound works great on other animations but nothing shows up.. Is there anything in the file I need to change.. There is also a "DS STORE" file which i havent seen in other animations..
What is that file for?
Can someone post a screenshot of this flash working???
Im not sure what else to try.. been working on this for hours.. still nothing
OK just tried to flah in recovery and message received was "Cant find update script" so this could be why its not working... What script is needed?? Is it the notepad of code that goes into each zip bootanimation? that is not in the zip btw when downloaded from the thread that has this download... so if its working on other Evos how did you do it.. and what script is present??
does anyone still have the dancing droid for evo 4g. i would like to use it as my boot animation but the link in this thread is broken and i cant find one that will work anywhere

Anyone know where i can find this exact Boot animation? and do i install it same way as i would a custom rom.
1. Put in root
2. Boot to recovery
3. Flash it
and thats it? this will be first time i download just a boot animation. i normally use the one that come with the rom.
and i left a youtube comment but the creator hasn't posted a message in over a month

I'm not sure where to find it, but it depends on how its packaged, on how you install it. If its a flashable zip, then yes you do exactly as you said. If its just the bootanimation.zip, and isn't flashable, then you can use root explorer to put the file where it belongs. If you're on a sense rom, it goes in /system/customize/resource. If you're on aosp, it goes in /system/media. Just put it in the right folder, set permissions, and reboot.

Damn, you're right. The mp3 file (for the boot sound) will download it seems, but the actual boot animation links me to 4shared and says 'the file link is no longer valid', or something like that. Maybe look thru that thread and see if there are any mirror's posted in it? I got nothing to do, I'll take a gander for ya in a sec.
EDIT: I found it. Check out post #40 in that thread. I just downloaded it. The download works fine. If you want the sound, the link in the OP looks like it works, if not, I saw two other mirrors for the MP3 sound somewhere between post 10 and 40.
BTW, that download is not flashable. you'll need to put the file where it goes. It's easy, especially if you know a little adb, it'll take 20 seconds. If not, using root explorer or ES file explorer can get the job done.
EDIT2: attatched the animation for you.
i'll take a look as well, don't want you to be having all the fun
Its in there, page 4 or 5
damn it its not flashable.
gotta learn how to do it the other way now
Root explorer works great-sweet find!

Couple quick questions to help me help you get it installed.
1) What rom are you currently on
2) Do you have a root level file explorer such as Root Explorer, or ES File explorer?
3) Do you have adb set up to use on your computer?
4) If you're on a sense rom, I might be able to make a flashable zip for you, let me know.

Ooops. I forgot to edit the sound file. Sorry. I can edit and re upload it, or all you'd need to do is open up the zip you downloaded. Click the folder that says system. then click customize. then click resource. then you'll see the bootanimation.zip and the mp3 file. rename the mp3 file to SPC_animation_final. Or it might be spc_animation_final. I forget if the spc is capitals or not. It's one or the other. Then reflash it.
Edit> and what do you mean that was the fastest bootloader? The fastest it's ever booted up you mean? confused.

Once you edited it, flash it again. And also, as I said, I don't remember if it's spc_animation_final or if it's SPC_animation_final. And I may have not been clear, but make sure that when you renamed it, you left the .mp3 extension on the file. It needs to be there.
yeah i know. flashing now. 1 min bud

You need a kernel/rom that supports bootanimation.zip
The stock/touchwiz based roms use a .qmg file for the animation instead.
Also the images in the bootanimation.zip would need to be modified for our resolution 400*800 as opposed to the 1280*720 of the Nexus.
The bootanimation.zip is already available for 400*800 devices & I can confirm it works beautifully on CM7

I'm running Darkside's kernel which supports custom boot animations so thats not a problem.

Do not assume, no it is not a flashable .zip, you will need to manually insert to system/etc/media/

copy it/cut it out of the rom. then, using root explorer, paste it back into the same location, in /system/media/, and reboot. delete your old bootanimation.zip out of that location first. thats all youll need to do.
