Ooh excellent, how do I apply this to my Desire? I have it rooted care of Modaco's guide but it doesn't seem as simple as doing this on my Hero where I could just update from a zip on my sd card on boot.

this is not an update.zip

but you can open shell in recovery:

open a second terminal:

adb shell mount /data

adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local (bootanimation in the same folder as adb.exe)

replace adb with adb-windows when using the r4 tools folder as base

every method where you have a functional adb. so win, linux, mac.. doesnt matter

easiest is just copy from sdcard to data/local with rootexplorer..

OOoo, that on the market? Might have to give it a look...

EDIT: Got Root Explorer - how can I copy it from the sdcard to the local folder?

How do I do that? There's isn't a storage folder on the phone...

This is where I don't know Android! WinMo was easy for stuff like this! lol!

  1. Change the USB mode to Disk drive by dragging the notification bar down and clicking the USB notification.
  2. Drag and drop the zip archive to the drive that appears in Explorer on your PC.
  3. Rename that zip to bootanimation.zip.
  4. Change the USB mode to Charge only.
  5. Open Root Explorer and go into /sdcard.
  6. Copy the file by holding your finger on it and selecting Copy.
  7. Browse to /data/local and click the Paste button at the bottom.
It takes a bit of time to get used to a different OS. Don't worry, it's easier and better than WinMo when you know how :rolleyes: Edited by craigcrawford1988

That's cause it's a short animation...it repeats until Android has booted - would be nice if it went vertically and filled the screen but it's cool as it is

You could just extract the images and edit them in photoshop to do just that.

Might have a play, not got Photoshop - I imagine anything similar would work?

GIMP would work, and it's free.

Hi guys:)

I am a bit confused now, I have followed this guide before and it worked perfectly.

Now I am doing it again as I just recently flashed with a costum MoDaCo kitchen rom, but now the trick dosen´t seem to work. It is just the default HTC "quietly brilliant" boot screen as it comes with by default my phone. Why is this?? am I just overlooking something and making a stupid mistake?

Never mind, Nexus One boot screen + the potential boot sound that I can´t remember if is actually there, will be included in MoDaCo Costum Rom´s Kitchen for r7 which is based off of the official release of HTC´s OTA update to Android Froyo
