I've seen the post for the custom boot animations for the gnex but I get confused on how to install them on my phone. Is there an easier way I could do it like by flashing it through CWM?

There's really no need to flash boot animations... just drop the bootanimation.zip file in /data/local
Code:
> adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/
Where do find that?

Or just download the bootanimation.zip from whatever post you want and then copy it to /data/local/ using your favorite on-device file manager.
The whole .zip file?

Thanks for the tip.

And it doesn't get overwritten with a ROM flash.
I'll take this opportunity to post the two stock bootanimation, one is the original android logo, the other is the google logo.
I keep getting lost. All I need to do is place the zip file in the data/local and its set?

That's gonna be a tough one to find buddy. I would probably just download one of the stock roms and grab the bootanimation.zip and copy it to your sd, then go to system/ media and delete/ move your old bootanimation.zip and replace with the new one.
You can use root explorer or something that gives you read/write capabilities

Flash one of Chris41g early repack kernels. They have stock boot animation in them

I used root explorer to rip the bootanimation.qmg and bootanimationloop.qmg files from the synergy kernel and paste them into the /system/media folder with rw-r--r-- permissions.

Cool story bro !
Seriously tho, you can just delete them to make the boot process faster. I recommend using the logcat boot from chainfire. It looks really nerdy and seems to make the boot precess that much faster.

Pretty sure the stock boot animation isnt in bootanimation.zip either its like a qmg file or something.
Yeah in the system media folder right ?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
So should I remove the qmg file and push bootanimation.zip via root explorer or is there another way? Just want the glowing S from Calks rom as my bootanimation. Instead of sprint to bright and loud at night

Are you on a stock kernel? You need a custom kernel that supports boot animation zips.

Sorry been really busy. You have agats kernel you can push the boot animation into system media. U may need to rename it to sanim.zip

If you got this working with your stock/agat, please let me know as I want to change the boot anim on my GF's phone as well..
Thanks
Boot animation support is built into the kernel. So it doesn't matter what rom your on. You can use rom toolbox to change your boot animation and then go into system/media and see what it's named. Either bootanimation.zip or sanim.zip . Then after that you can push any boot animation into the system/media.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
If you have a kernel that supports it like Agat or any other supportive kernel it will work all you gots to do is flash one of these bootanimation zip from the link provided in the bottom. Flash the bootanimation zip from recovery and after booting up replace it with the one you want to use go to system/media folder and replace reboot enjoy..

Just extract the files you want and place them in the appropriate /system/media folder.

Anyone got a flashable zip of this? I removed my current boot animation zip and push this one and changer perms but gives nothing but a Android screen then black. Then I have to pull battery and flash another or restore previous to get phone back on.

Do you know how to use adb in recovery? It will give you better results. Go into record dry go to mounts and storage and mount sdcard then go to a command prompt and push it over unmount sdcard then reboot
Still getting nothing from this. Tried different downloads, and checked permissions. Each download either goes black, or just shows the Android logo. Never used ADB.

Is there proper permissions holding me back? Check what boxes in each?
Download the CM10SavesZip.zip from OP
Extract the Zip file into a folder in your download directory
Inside the Zip file are 2 folders "Horizontal" and "Vertical"
Choose which orientation you want and open that folder
Go to the 480 folder and copy the bootanimation.zip to /system/media and set permissions to rw-r--r--
Reboot and enjoy new animation
Don't forget to rename the bootanimation.zip that is already in that folder. I used bootanimation1.zip
