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.

n4 boot animation

The third party boot animation apps don't work on the og for some reason, anyone have the nexus 4 boot animation? I'm not digging the sprint boot up

Same, I'd like to have the nexus 4 boot animation.

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?)

Edit: this one doesn't work. Epic found a working one, see page 2

replaced both files b-a.zip and b-a_sprint.zip and set permissions to 644.. blank boot screen. any suggestions?

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?

[REQ] Nexus 4 boot logo

Hi
Does anybody have a CWM flashable Zip for the Nexus4 Boot Logo.
Just flashed a ROM & I have the boring old "Android" on startup.
I'd like to have the glowing Nexus "X" logo back again
Thanks.:good:

I'd just download a ROM with it and extract it. However, you might like this. Don't remember where i found it but it matches the nexus perfectly.

Here's a better idea of what you're looking at.

you mean boot animation

I use the bootanimation provided above and like it. Works on my Galaxy Nexus also.

Here's the link for the original X from the Nexus One. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764 I actually prefer this over the new X.

Tried flashing this in CWM and nothing changed...

What he said. Unless the person who posted it says its a flashable bootanimation.
To verify, open up the zip file. If it's a bunch of folders named /part0/ /part1/ etc then its not flashable.
Flashable: has a folder to /data/... or /system/media
chances are they're not flashable. but open to check.

Same here,
after I tried to get a custom boot animation it only shows the default "android" logo on boot.
I messed with the premissions in /styem/media/ can I revert that ?

+1 for the idea of a flashable version - specifically one compatible with Cyanogenmod
I have been running nightlies via CyanDelta and would LOVE to have a bootanimation zip that I could plop in the auto-install script to bring back the stock Nexus 'x' boot. Sadly every flashable bootanimation for the original nexus logo I have tried seems to install the files in the wrong location for CM.

store the bootanimation in /data/local/
after flashing a new nightly or whatever, it will keep your bootanimation. only way for it to reset is if you do a factory reset. enjoy.
(worked on my galaxy nexus, not sure if it works on N4 but it should, try it, shouldnt harm you.. pretty positive that its the same on N4)
edit: the bootanimation i linked earlier is a cwm flashable one. to manually do it just extract bootanimation.zip from the zip file downloaded.

Thanks for the tip! Just tried the manual push to /data/local but no joy. Upon boot it was blank, and the nightly flash restored the CM default in any event. Might be a permissions issue - should 644 and be owned by system, correct?

Does anyone have a method to change the boot logo i.e. the Google logo?
I'm looking to personalise it.

You're welcome.
Its a flashable zip too. Worked on my AOKP ROM back in the day, along with cyanogen.
Just read that threads OP. He himself extracted it from his G Nex, so it *TECHNICALLY SPEAKING* is safe to flash on our phones. But still, remember to have a nandroid for any *just in case* moment.

used to be able to do this on my Droid 1 and loved messing with it. It's not part of the kernel so it must be boot loader... do we have any way of tearing that down? I'm assuming we'd have to be unlocked... ha. Would love it if someone more knowledgeable would chime in.... thanks.

this will replace the bootanimation of motorola(the world) and don't affect your bootlogo

Thanks for this!
I can only seem to get part of the animation working. I turn the phone on and i get a world and google screen. After about 5 seconds the GPE boot animation then starts. Could this be down to your unlocked bootloader message fix that ive applied?
Thanks.

i cant seem to replace my bootanimation. Im using ES File Explorer, and it's saying directory is "read-only"! is there any workarounds in here? I used to replace my old phones bootanimation, and ES File Explorer worked just fine..

In ES File Explorer, click on settings(top left) and scroll down to Root Explorer. Toggle it to on(if not already) and then click the words "Root Explorer". This will bring up a menu. Select "mount r/w" then select r/w for the system partition.
It was simpler in older versions of es.

No, just put the new bootanimation and accept overwrite.

I tried both ways and it was not

/data/local/moodle/
That's correct location of boot animations if you have installed Motorola boot services

Yes. If any doubt exists...You can boot to twrp and before you flash the zip do the following...go to mounts and put a check mark in system. Then go to advanced and select file manager. Navigate to /system/app and rename wifirouter.apk and it's odex to have the .bak extension. Then flash.

Just do the edit your self its easy, no need for a flashable. Just use a root file explorer to go to /system/customize/ACC/ and open default.xml in a text editor. Almost to the bottom you will see
Code:
<app name="Tethering_provision">
<item type="integer" name="TetheringGuard_Rule">1</item>
Change the 1 to a 0. Save exit and reboot. The stock wifi hotspot should now work.
