Boot animation - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Noob here looking for some help, I flashed a new boot animation in recovery which went fine with no problems. The problem I've got is I now can't change it to a different boot animation, I've tried
1 - flashing another boot zip in recovery. No luck
2 - tried rom toolbox pro to flash 1 of their boots. No luck
3 - I've tried doing it manually by deleting boot animation zip in system/media and replacing it with a new bootanimation.zip. no luck
Every time I reboot Im back to the 1 I'm trying to get rid off.
If anyone could help I'd appreciate it.
If I've posted this in the wrong place I'm sorry but go easy on a noob

Which rom do you have installed? Sometimes it is in a different location

I'm using absolution 3.7
If I reflash the rom will that put it back to the boot animation that comes with the rom?

[Q] Boot Animation

Hey guys hopefully someone can help me with this issue. I odin'd tp the stock ext4 plus rom in the development forum which works fine however then i flashed genocide 1.0 rom over the top if that to get the OC/UV features and when i booted i got the word "android" in the middle of the sprint boot animation then i flash a custom boot animation now the sprint and custom boot animations are mixed together when booting any suggestions to get rid of sprint animation?
Whenever you have android flashing in the middle, that means you had a bad flash. Just pull the battery and reflash the ROM/kernel in CWM and you should be fine.

Not true when u have the android name flashing it means it supports custom boot animation. Best bet is to get root explore go into system/ media. Look for bootanimation.zip and delete it then flash the new one

Try taking a bootanimation from a rom that u like and push it to system/media. For example download a rom extract it go into the system/media folder look for the bootanimation.zip copy that put it on ur sd card then with root explore take it and copy it to ur system/media then reboot see if that works

Really?? Then I'm confused because the first time I flashed SRF it flashed the android name while trying to boot. Just re-flashing the ROM fixed it. I thought this was the same situation.

Na it just means it custom bootanimation compatible

just flash this stock boot animation cleaner which deletes the stock animation files so you dont have an overlap...
http://chris41g.users.foss-net.org/epic_stock_boot_cleaner.zip
then flash any bootanimation.zip you want, lots in the theme section.. here is the stock animation in bootanimation.aip form.. or as close as can be to the stock animation anyway...

i am rooted, i tried to instal a custom red and black market and when it rebooted it just got stuck in a loop. so i took it into recovery and tried to flash a new rom thinking that may fix it..... after wiping everything. i also noticed that my market kept force closing just before the reboot.
the rom installed just fine as far as i can see but all i see is the boot animation that came with the new rom
ok i got it up, i have kingsrom running but i have no keyboard to set it up. do i need gapps installed
yeah gaspps needs to be installed

Stuck on splash screen.

I've rooted an evo and changed the splash screen. I have the splash screen with the little android guy wearing a cape. It doesn't do it every day just once in a while. Evo rooted by unrevoked method using synergy rom. Has stuck on slash screen with other roms. Any idea on what the problem is. Thanks in advanced.

Stuck on the Splash Screen (normally white screen with Evo 4G) or the Boot Animation? Does the phone get stuck there when you power it on or it reboots on you and sticks there?
If it is rebooting on you and sticking on the boot animation you are stuck in a boot loop. That has happened to me with Synergy RLS1 (non god) and MikG when I was running a kernel (and CPU setting) that my phone did not like. Are you running a custom kernel? If so what settings?

It is stuck on the used to be white EVO screen. Gets stuck when powered up. Have done battery pull and even cleaned cache and delvik cache. After I clear those it will boot. No custom kernel. Synergy rom rls 1.

Bump. Just trying to get some advice as to why it is doing this.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
So it hangs on the splash screen after you attempt to power it on? I am assuming that it worked before (and you either turned it off or it rebooted on its own) to the get that state. Wiping the the caches clears the problem? I ran Synergy RLS1 for a while but I have never seen anything like that.

What's the last thing that you did to the phone? Did you flash Synergy or change the splash screen?

The last thing I did was put in synergy rom but this problem started before then. It happened with the other rom.

A few things I could think of...
Did you always have this problem with your phone?
Should try one of them superwipe scripts/zips (if you haven't already) and flash rom again. (for Recovery - Amon RA works better for Synergy i think, CWM for most AOSP ones)
Are you using aaps2sd or link2sd?
Have you tried a GB kernel like Freedom latest?

Kernel flashing is done the same way you did the ROM. Not sure if its an hboot thing for you...sounds like a one off case.
If it was me, I would've downgraded to eng hboot if possible...flash another splash and flash this one back. Might want to reflash the ROM again...just so we start fresh. Also try the format all script or a superwipe script in case your wiping is all jacked up.
The hboot and format all script is by the same dev, just search for it.
Could you post the link to the splash you are having issues with?

So if you were stuck on a splash screen, then I am assuming you were able to go into Hboot and performed an update to your PC36IMG.zip?

Well I won't have time to flash it, as I have to leave for class in 5 minutes, but re-download the file, make sure its the correct size. Place it on the root of your sd card name PC36IMG [the .zip file extension is hidden], boot into the bootloader, it'll scan, it'll say update found: splash, apply update, reboot, and the new splash screen should be working.
If not, pm me the link, and I'll try it when I get out of class [around 5:45 EST]

it sounds like a bad download...when aokp is installing in recovery it should take anywhere from 15 to 20 sec same with gapps. i would redownload off the computer and stick it on the root of your sdcard... hopefully u had a backup. also what recovery are u using??? I recommend twrp it is very user friendly and also mounts ext sdcard. some of the recovery for this phone is finnicky.... twrp gives me no problems

[Q] Need Help Installing Boot Animations

Hey all, I'm new to the Samsung community and my experience with HTC products does not seem to be helping me at all. I am having an issue installing different boot animations. I see the original animation in the /system/media folder, but when i replace it and reboot it is just replaced by a flashing ANDROID. Rooted using FreeGS3 ROM. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

try copying and paste of the same (your custom) bootanimation zip file to the data/local folder. reboot and see if that works
if not, try this...

Thanks for the response! I tried placing my boot animation in that folder, ran that zip, cleared cache and dalvik, still nothing. Does it have to be flashed using cwm for some reason? I'm using twrp.
