First you need your audio file that you want to use then use root explorer with read write turned on to copy the file to the /system/customize/resource folder then use root explorer to navigate to /system/customize/CID in this folder you will find a file called default.xml long press on this file the open it as a text file scroll to the bottom of the text list and you will see an entry for bootanimation and bootsound you can now either enter the name of your audio file or rename you audio file to match the name in the default.xml I have use the on the HTC HERO HTC EVO And the HTC EVO Shift and it has worked every time

Weird, I don't have system/customize file does it matter wich rom I'm using?

It does matter what rom you're using.
This is information you should always include in the OP.

If you have root explorer you can do it easily. If you do not have it, you should. Worth every penny if you don't understand adb yet.
Anyway, with root explorer, you just download a swype enabled rom. Open root explorer and navigate to the swype enabled rom on your sdcard. Make sure R/W access is checked at the top of root explorer. Locate the app directory and longclick on the swype apk. Select extract and it will extract the file to your system/extracted folder or something like that. I believe it tells you where it puts the file so keep an eye out. Now locate the library directory and find the swype library file and extract. At this point you just need to copy the files to your system app and library directories. When you have the files placed in their respective directories, navigate to the swype apk file and install it from within root explorer. Now your golden. Make sure to enable swypw in you keyboard settings.
Hope this is legible enough to help.

I'm using it right now on the newest cm7 nightly, suits the rom just fine .
Find the correct .ogg file, using root explorer or any other file manager move the .ogg file to system/media/ui/ and overwrite the initial one. A reboot is needed for sounds to take effect.
U can also adb push "filename.ogg" system/media/ui
/system needs to be mounted 'rw'.
Good luck!

I hadn't done this on my G2 yet when I posted the youtube link, but I just did it and it took about 20-30 seconds to do it.
I've always found that SU File Manager was easier to do this, so people should try it out.
It overwrites the file, make sure you pressed the S in the top left corner. Then just reboot after you've done everything.
Also make sure that you rename the file and delete .zip at the end.

[Q] incRom 1.4 boot animation

So I'm not able to find a 'how to' on changing the boot animation, been running incRom for awhile now and figured I'd change things up a bit. Anyone know how or know a link to view how to change this? Thanks in advance
Do you have root explorer? If so you can copy and paste a new boot animation right in to the proper location. Probably system/customize/resource. Just rename or move your current one so you can still use it later on. I just made a pretty badass one recently. If you want I can post a flashable zip for you. Just let me know where its located and what clockwork recovery you have.

Ok need alil help on this one, I can do it through recovery but for the sake of learning to do this another way I'd like to try it through root explorer. I found the original boot animation listed under system/bin/ what do I need to do from there? Rename the original one and do I change permissions on that one and if so which ones do I check and uncheck?

Alright. So from root explorer scroll down to system. At the top it has mount ro and mount rw. You want to mount rw. Now find the original boot and rename it to VZW_bootanimation.zip.bak. Go back to the SD card through root explorer, long press and copy the new bootanimation. Now go back to system/bin and paste. Should work from there. Ive never had to set or fix permissions. Holla back.

Should be. It'll be VZW_droid.mp3. It might be android_audio.mp3 but that was before 2.2. Put it in the same folder as the bootanimation.

i assume that this was prompted by the recent news of Osama Bin Laden's "death"?
actually it wasn't, I was looking for it for a few days but the Osama thing does make me want it more.
I used to have that boot screen on my WinMo Touch Pro. I don't know if I've seen an Android version.
Someone ported it to android no sure for what device. I have the zip file but it didn't work for me.

Perhaps the zip file is not flashable? Or if it is but made for another Android device, just extract the bootanimation.zip and put it in the correct folder.
Post the zip and I'll take a look at it for you.

Is there a problem with it being a zip file INSIDE of the zip file? There is really no other reason why it shouldnt work..?
Ok. So the zip file you posted was flashable, sort of. It had both edify and amend scripts in it. I don't think you can have both. This is just the extracted animation, resized and optimized. 13 megs was a bit large. Rename if necessary and use root explorer to install to the proper location. Probably system/ customize/ resource. I can make this flashable if you can give me a location of your current boot animation. I may have to adjust the speed. It was originally set to 60 fps. It's currently 15 fps. Try it out and let me know.

If you unzip the boot animation zip, you will find a text file called desc.
Open it and one of the numbers represents the fps. You could try changing the value to something higher.

Any file manager should be able to create zips. Try Astro, or root explorer, or something.
Just a something to know though...if you rezip it on a pc using winrar or 7zip or something, you must change the compression method to "store". If you leave the compression method to the default "normal" it will not work. (you phone will boot but instead of a boot animation you will have a black screen)
And i believe the apps that Andoo listed above dont have the option to change compression method when zipping files, so im not sure if they will work ok. They could...but if they dont thats probably the reason why. Theres no harm in trying them though.
