[Q] Sense ROM custom shutdown animation?

So I've been making attempts at replacing my shutdown animation (on Evil's Sense G2-Z ROM), but have been having troubles.
I've created a shutdown animation at the same resolution as the original, and put that into a downanimation.zip with folder "android" and desc.txt, which sets the parameters for the shutdown animation (the downanimation.zip goes into /system/customize/resource). The desc.txt is the exact same as that in the original downanimation.zip. As far as I can tell, the only differences between my downanimation.zip and the original is file size (their images are very plain, whereas mine are a bit more detailed) and the timestamp.
Now here's where it gets really quite weird. If I edit one image and replace it from the original shutdown animation, it stops working. Which made me think that there's something messed up with how I'm zipping my files. BUT if I change the name of my downanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip (in the same folder as downanimation.zip), and reboot my phone, my shutdown animation works just fine as the startup animation.
So. Anyone have any ideas how to change the shutdown animation, or on what I'm doing wrong?

Yemuzip on OS X.

have you found a solution yet?
ive done the same thing, encountered a weird problem tho.
it only accepts a zip which is set to store not compressed for boot but shutdown none works.. i wonder if it is the file size that is the issue or something else.
if i changed the shutdown/downanimation i cannot boot into bootloader "pwr+vol down" on desire HD. have to boot to clockwork and adb shell rm /system/customize/resources/shutdown.zip/downanimation.zip and then it can boot into bootloader again but shutdown/restart screen would be blank.. weird.

Yes all guides I've seen say that the bootanimation.zip on the Desire HD (/data/local/) needs to be zipped without compression (using "store" method of compression). I would assume it's safe to do the same thing for the shutdown animation. Thanks for the folder where the shutdown animations are stored on the Desire HD. I was having a little trouble finding it as it's different from other android phones. Just a spelling error though, it's /system/customize/resource/ not "resources"

SOLVED here. Tq.

[Solved] Down animation = black screen

Hi, after installing CoreDroid ROM, I wanted to change boot and down animation to stock version, so I extracted needed files from backup ("bootanimation.zip" and "downanimation.zip"), opened Root Explorer, turned on R/W mode, and replaced that files in "data\local" folder. Now, boot animation works, but down animation doesn't (as said in title).
I don't know what's problem, can someone help me? Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I have solved problem - I followed this tutorial and copied file via ADB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=942976

[Q][Galaxy ACE II] How to change bootanimation in CyanogenMod?

Firstly - hello, my name is Patrick and I'm not-so-much-newly registered user, but this is my first post.
And now I go to my question - how to change bootanimation in CyanogenMod 11 by Maclaw? I tried to do it in such a way, as it's written in the guides, I used Root Explorer to copy bootanimation.zip from SDCard to /system/media, I uploaded everything as described, and after restarting the phone instead of animation I have modified the default android logo. Was this version of the system has some protection against the change? If so, is it possible to somehow disable it?

Can you upload what bootanimation.zip you put instead of original one

I wouldn't upload anything, because I have no longer any of these files on disk, but I can explain what I tried to do. Well - I tried to use that animation, but it had a built-in sound and all this before I did, I was playing with this for too long. So first I commented out using the # line in the file.txt responsible for downloading music and I switched the file again. Unfortunately - appeared on the default android animation. In the end I gave up and made ​​the next step - changed the size of all images - still I had the default bootanim, so I removed that file to recycle bin.
Even when I install this thing, I have an original bootanim of CyanogenMod - nothing is changed.

Boot animations on stock 4.4.4?

I'm having some challenges with getting an alternative boot animation to show up on my One M8... I recently downgraded back to stock 4.4.4 to try and see if that will resolve the interruptions I've been having with Bluetooth playback on my Kenwood deck... (I don't think it was a problem previously on 4.4.4)... anyway, I've got everything working... but wanted to torch the stock boot animation... (basically for the boot sound).
I've tried copying the boot animation I want to use to /system/customize/resource (did this both via adb - mount -o remount,rw /system /system, and then do what I want... and via TWRP... I've changed the permissions to 777... (read that somewhere...) but it looks like it really should be 644... (rw,r,r)
I've named it hTC_bootup_one.zip - no dice... I've unpacked and repacked the zip file (made sure it wasn't compressing the images)
I'm uncertain what else to try... do I need a alternative kernel to monkey with the boot animation?

logo.jpg draw failed
Thanks for the tutorial! I'm pretty sure I'm the one doing something wrong but I can't figure out what.
I was able to flash the param file, both the cwm way and through odin which resulted in "logo.jpg draw fail.." so that part works, but adding my image doesn't work. I've tried several different images, including yours and changed the permissions accordingly but it just doesn't seem to take it. It boots fine though. I've done this before, about a year ago and it worked fine then so I'm wondering if it has to do with my partitioning or that I've updated to marshmallow recently (the battery charging animation changed after upgrade, did something else change too perhaps? Does this tutorial not work any more after update?)
Anyway, if you have any tips, I'd appreciate it.

is this applicable to Marshmallow (CM13)?
@alexbokor40, same issue with @luvis, after flashing the zip, able to get the "logo.jpg fail" but after copying the logo.jpg to the .lfs folder, set the right permissions and reboot, nothing happens. i'm on CM13 official and also has custom pit. I also notice when i open the .lfs folder in root explorer, i can't see the other files inside of it. last time when i was on 4.1.2, i able to see the other files.
any tips will be highly appreciated mate.

It is called bootlogo

It doesn't work on android 7.0 nougat. I didn't find nay file at /mnt/.lfs/
And i didn't get the green message "logo.jpg draw fail" after flashing via twrp 3.0.2
Do you have another method?

is there a way to do that through build.prop? has anyone tried? the param.ls way here seems to fail. in my s2 with cm 13 the bootlogo is not removed, flashing with odin.
