changing boot animation

[tattman65]

Ok guys heres what I'd like to do i want to tweek my tablet a bit more I've been looking at some different boot animations trust me nothing personal damo your boot animation is very cool, but i like to personalize my stuff im sure you do too so i would like to change mine up,ive seen some in zip file. And am pretty sure i know what to do but i dont wanna mess up what y'all have done . So if it's not too much to ask, am i correct in saying i take the new zip place it in System/media Where the other boot is rename the old one like boot animation old unzip the new one and it's ready to go? Right or wrong? Thanks for your help I've bragged to everyone about y'all, next I'm gonna flash 1.5

Yes the boot animation is /system/media/bootanimation.zip

But know you cannot just zip up the animation using windows! It's a special zip aligned format!

If you do not want to loose the current Damo bootanimation.zip then since you are now rooted, copy the bootanimation.zip in /system/media to your sdcard to back it up.

Anyway, search google to learn how to make a proper bootanimation that works. It is not as easy as it sounds and you have to make the ZIP correctly.

make sure it is named exactly like the old one(bootanimation.zip) the most important set the permissions on the bootanimation you have created like in the guide, than reboot.

what do you see when you reboot

replacing boot animation,

So I've had some fun playing with different bootanimations,and it worked out great because the freaktab image starts off the animation. If,anyone changes your animation just be careful and make sure you name it correctly. And be sure to back up your old one and dont forget to set your permissions. Thanks to damo and his tutorial for creating boot animations there are some good ones people have set up for tablets too, I've found some nice ones at rootzwiki.anyhoo,y'all have a good one.
