well the splash screen has to be compatible with your screen size so pick one here on xda on gio themes and apps section, the Ace has the same resolution so you can take one from ace's thread with themes and apps to, you download one, put on your sd card, then go to root explorer in SISTEM>MEDIA and delete bootanimation.zip, then go to the bootanomatoin.zip you doe\wnloaded prewiously and copy it to SISTEM>MEDIA and press it long, you wil see a submenu with one option = permissions. Press it and set this: owner rear &write, group read, others read. OOO and if it says thatr it cant be changet you will see a option in the upper left corner sayng "mount R/W pres and retri then reboot and thats it

Is it at all possible to install custom boot animations without having them already packaged in a ROM? I am tired of the blue flashing galaxy logo!
anybody???
I think there's a dev here that released a rom where he changed the boot, sound and ending splash animation with the one from i9000 galaxy s. You might want to check the thread and ask him how to make changes. Maybe once this info is out maybe it will get ball rolling to get custom boot and ending animations.
I saw an app on the market called boot animation changer or something to thateffect but I've never used it or know how for that matter

Until we get a new rom/kernel that supports other, or standard, boot ani's we're stuck with boot animations that are in the Samsung proprietary format. If/when cm6 gets ported to the galaxy it'll be as easy as uploading any bootanimation.zip to the right place.
Heroic epic rom has custom boot animation support!
Sent from my Epic 4G
Heroic Epic is the best. Thank you for supporting custom boot animations Mammon88!!
yeah the kernel just needs to support looking for "bootanimation.zip" instead of sammys crap. once mammon throws down with his magic, everyone will get some love!
Yeah heroic epic rom works great and with root explorer all you have to do is get any bootanimation.zip that 800x480 on your sd card and then copy with root explorer to your /data/local folder and next time you boot you'll see your boot animation. You can get some boot animations from the evo thread!
ok so i just figured out how to root my epic POS last night and OBVIOUSLY lack the exp you guys have...i have cwm5.? and a one click root now...but i read somewhere that cwm makes you recovery screen green, but mine is still blue. i desperately want to switch around the theme and **** but need instruction...PLZ HELP! LOL if you guys could gtalk me thru it id appreciate [email protected]
If you have clockworkmod then, turn the phone off. When the phone is off, reboot holding down camera +vol down + power all at the same time. That will take you into the clockworkmod recovery.

Hello,
Anyway of changing the top bar where the time battery and signal notifications are from silver/grey to black?
Loving the phone >)
Thanks
There is, but go to the "Themes/Apps" subject thread under Defy. You may also check out the "Android development" title, the different ROMS and thmes all have a little something you might be looking for.
you will have to flash a framework or theme through recovery
Were you able to find it?

it does change other stuff you have to make your own if you only want the status bar to change.
question asked quite a while ago, but in case you're still looking for this or someone else wonders about it also... here's what I use and suggest:
On this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-923360.html
you can find this:
DarkBar Patch : adlxmod-Defy-Froyo-DarkBarOnly.1-signed.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/?hoiaf7d4na80jl6
It only changes the status bar to a 'blackish' look.
It's not pefect beacause the time display font hasn't been changed to white - but the rest looks ok.
To install this, you'll first need to have root access for your phone and Clockworkmod (CWM) recovery installed.
Then you use CWM to re-boot in recovery mode and then chose the update option and select the .zip file placed on the root directory of your SD card
[I didn't wipe or clear cache] reboot and it's done!
you need to modify frameworks.apk&service.jar yourself

be carefull, me too tried to mod the framework to change the lockscreen (following a guide) and the result was bootloop.
im looking to know this too!
however, if you go into the dev section, there is a rom by iaio72 called s.froyo CEE, it have a theme with a black statusbar like gingerbread, you could try it.
I still beleive that the method I've mentioned at post #8 is easier than flashing a whole ROM...
Hi all,
I looked and tried for a while now, but I'm not able to change my boot animation on the COS ICS by roalex. A bootanimation.zip stored in system/media and/or in data/local doesn't work for me. I'm shure it changed in general in ICS. Can anybody help me please to find a way to change my boot animation?
Some ICS threads recommend to store in system/customize/resource, but I don't have a customize file.
For all changes I use root explorer.
Thanks and have a nice day!
What do you mean with "does not work"? Is any bootanimation shown or do you just get a black screen? Did you make your named it correctly and really replaced the old bootanimation?
Thanks for your answer
The bootscreen in general works. In settings I can enable and disable boot animation. When I enable boot, then the old school android boot animation is showed. I think this is maybe a fallback mode, when there is no bootanimation.zip. But I don't know.
When I look into /system/media and /data/local after a fresh installation, then there is no bootanimation.zip. Maybe the builder of this ROM has diasabled custom boot images to speed up the device (it is indeed very fast).
And because he has disabled boot animation per default, I'm not able to set up my own.
It's not the first time I created my own animation, so I'm shure it works at least in gingerbread.
My new question should be now, how to enable bootanimation in this special case, when it is disabled by default?
I suggest, that this is no big deal, when this doesn't work on this rom. I can live without a nice boot animation. It's more for my general comprehension, how android is working.

I guess you mean folder, not file, don't you?
Yes, indeed. Sorry.
Tried to create folderpath (/customize/resource) yourself and then move the bootnanimation.zip there?
BEFORE TRYING, MAKE A NANDROID-BACKUP!!!
Ok it didn't work for me. I'm a backup profi now, but nothing seems to work.
It's ok for me, I'll close this thread now.
Gracias!
It works flawless on my HTC Desire with this ROM.

I know the issue......install disk usage and tell me size of your system partition free space, then tell the size of bootanimation.....it always happens when space not enough.....Android tries to write your file, and if no space, it just shows.that file is written.....please check free space and tell.....

Hey!
You may have seen my ICS Pattern lock post, I'm back again with something more conservative.
I've simply gone and got the CyanogenMod 9 boot animation and posted it here for you guys to use Attachment at bottom of post ->
Therefore this obviously isn't my work, just giving people an easy way to install it.
|-----------------------------------------------------|
| /\/\/\/\/\/--INSTRUCTIONS--\/\/\/\/\/\/\ |
|-----------------------------------------------------|
OK, I'm assuming everyone knows how this works, but JIC
I don't know if this will work in RA, I used CWM.
1. Reboot into recovery (power down, hold "home" and "end")
2. Choose "install zip from sd card"
3. Select the zip, confirm
4. Watch the CM9-iness
Alternatively you can just extract the bootanimation.zip file, stick it in /system/media and set the correct permissions, etc., but what's the point 'cause I've given you this :silly:
Well, that's all folks, hope you like it

when it comes to bootanimations you need to look for the proper resolution for eg in case of dream bootanimations of 320x480 res will be perfect for it and yes the ace can use this bootanimation as long as the res is the same
just saying, it doesn't actually flash from recovery, wrong digest error.
gonna copy it into /system/media manually then i guess
Hi there
I love this CM9 boot animation but it doesn't work on a 1080p screen- Galaxy s4 running CM13
I have had a bit of a hard time finding much about changing that annoying whit HTC splash screen.here is what I have figured out ,might be helpfull for any of my fellow noobs ..ok,this is simple,there are many really cool custom screens you can find on here,pick the one you like,download it to your sd card.make sure it is named PG32IMG.zip ..power off your phone.holding volume down,power on your phone,this should take you to your h boot.once there give it a second,it will ask you if you want to update,press volume up,reboot your phone by pressing power,done!Hope you find this helpfull!p.s.there is also a good app for making your own screens on here somewhere .think its called splash flasher or something like that,look for it..
Understanding that you cannot post in the dev sections as of yet, I can see why you would post here. I'm in the same spot given I have utilized the forum for a long time but have not been active in the community. I noticed that your link did not come through properly. Here is a link to a splash screen modification that I use with success here. In conjunction with this I also modified my boot up and boot down animations although there are not a ton to chose from, I'm sure there are other threads out there. I just don't have the links. I used these boot up animations (w/ audio mod if you like) with success here. Love that gdi2290 Anyways, I did do some searching to find and ultimately found it through the all things root post found here which has a ton of information for Dinc2 users trying to get their root/modification legs. If anyone else has some decent links for splash screen, boot up, boot down, or other useful links. Add them to the pile.

Check out rom toolbox on the market. You can change boot animations with it. You used to be able to change boot screen also, but unless I'm overlooking it, that has been taken out.

No doubt, keep forgetting the features that app has because I have always used cwm manually (and have since moved on 4ext touch). Nice work!

There is a thread on here somewhere with a bunch of boot logos that you can download. It's pretty easy to change. Just rename the file and flash in bootloader. You have to make sure it's on the root of sd card. I don't think it works if it's in a folder.
