Am I the only one who has the feeling you are not looking for an answer at all? I mean, I can't be too far off with someone who opened 7 new threads in less than a month?
Maybe forums simply are not cut out for you?

Check /data/local or /system/media. If you cannot find it there, then just copy the bootanimation.zip to /data/local (usual place where bootanimation are stored in Sense-roms) and reboot. If you still see the standard bootanimation of RunnyMede, place the bootanimation.zip in /system/media and reboot. If you still cannot see your bootanimation, check the rom's thread and / or write a PM to the dev.

Long ago when i rooted it had that boot animation, once flashed to a diff rom i lost it. Anyone have that file for our evos...? Thanks

Im guessing it was from one of the PC36xxx.zip files when gaining root access?
Just download the zip file to your computer, unzip, navigate to the bootanimation folder and take the files out.

I was looking for it myself.. I found one but it was HVGA, I then realized that the new Desire HD ROMs had them, so if you dig through the ROM you'll be able to extract it from there.

Haha, I am currently using that one for my custom ROM. You can get it from my ROM or you can just download the MANUP theme and rip it out of there. That is how I got it on mine.
I used it when I got epic failz trying to make my own custom boot animation. The animation looks fine, just could not get it to work.
That or just flash the Manup theme and it will replace automatically with that one.
ok so this is the stock android boot image where ANDROID in android font flashes across the screen. there is no lag and looks very nice. follow the steps bellow to install.
WARNING - ANYTHING THAT MODIFIES THE FILES ON YOUR PHONE MAY DAMAGE IT. ONLY FOLLOW THE STEPD BELLOW IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
To be able to do this you will need root explorer.
you can buy this off the android market or find it online
1 - install root explorer onto your phone trough some sort of file manager
2 - download the bootanimation.zip file from the link below
3 - place it in the root of your sd card ( if on the xda app it will be in your downloads folder)
4 - open root explorer and switch to be able to write
5 - copy the boot.img file from your sd card to system/media and delete the boot image or animation already there( if that doesnt work try data/local )
6 - reboot your phone to make sure the boot animation is working properly

are you posting a link to download a paid app for free?
I didn't know it could boot from a .img file. I thought only zips would work.
I might have to give this a try just to see.

Unfortunately I have to disagree. This is the stock built in bootanimation. You don't need any special files to envoke it.
If you simply remove the /system/media/bootanimation.zip you get the same results.
Don't take it the wrong way, perhaps you were just miss informed.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
didnt know that
i tried deleting the boot up file...
And for the boot up sound how do I change that?
sgs tools doesnt work...
First off are you rooted? Second are you running a custom rom? If these apply then it should be as easy as replacing the bootanimation.zip file of your choice in the "system/media" folder.

Correct me if I'm wrong (anyone) but I think as of now there's no boot animations mods for ee03 (GB).

Sorry can't (don't know how to) post links using the xda app. Just look under the "themes and app" section and you'll see a few posts on boot animation. There's different types but the method is the same. Again it depends if your running a custom rom

That's probably because our actual boot animation is bootanimation_sprint.zip and we have a bootanimation.zip for the lg logo. You'll have to change a name in whatever zip you are applying. Then it should work.... or if not we'll have to change something in whatever tells the system which ones to flash. (build.prop?)

Should have specified... did you renamethe zip file IN the zip file and then zip them both back up properly?
Edit: Dangit... didn't work. I've tried a lot of stuff now... I'm going to try editing the sprint bootanimation itself next.
Edit 2: Holy crap its after 5 am
Ok i finally got it.. I think I had a couple bad boot animations. Just renamed the animation to bootanimation_sprint.zip, didn't bother with the normal bootanimation.zip yet. Set it to 644 (rw/r/r) permissions. I successfully got this one to work, for reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764 Here is the actual boot animation file that should be fine to put in system media without renaming. Just check the permissions: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/31205865/bootanimation_sprint.zip It wouldn't be too hard to make a flashable one but I couldn't find any that used the right script and its almost 6 am. goodnight.
That boot animation is the original nexus boot up screen.

I got it partially working, it pops up for about 20% of the animation now.

Did you guys read the thread? I didn't actually try it myself but you have to like change the permissions on the files, etc, it's kind of an ordeal.

Yes, I was messing with the permissions and none of them work except for the one they mention in that thread. It has to be something with the images..

This looks just like the one on my Nexus 7. I take it the Nexus 4 is the same, or is this boot animation not from the N4?
Can anyone be really kind and tell me how to customize boot animation within the boot image. I have extacted the boot image within the the kitchen but are a bit lost looking at the files. .... Advice appreciated...
Boot animation isn't located in boot.img.
On aosp roms it is at /system/media/
Not too surr about sense roms.

In sense based roms its located in system/customize/resource/
Just replace the existing 'bootanimation.zip' with the one that you want.

Hi if you are still there. Have tried replacing with renaming to the same as files in rom. When that didnt work I replaced with stock and tried editing original files. Nothing seems to work. Once edited boot up is black. Now i get the normal htc white and then it goes to black with android in the centre. Where that came from I have no idea. Appreciate any advice. Cheers....

No you don't. The reason he is only seeing a black screen is because when he made his bootanimation.zip he compressed the zip file.
The animation cannot be compressed.
Use a program like 7zip to make the zip file and use store as the compression type. Then it will work

rw-r--r--
and the bootanimation.zip need to be renamed same as the original zip name in resource folder. e.g. hTC_bootup_one.zip for my HOX

Yeah tried all of that. No go and think it's because from stock Rom its not enabled to change the boot animation. Even tho I've gained root access via the kitchen I can't find how to enable it. Cheers anyway and if u known more about the kitchen. Advice welcomed. Cheeeers
