Root Bootanimation trouble. please help

[Android Addict]

I've been trying to make a flashable boot animation and when I go to flash it on my phone it aborts the install. Yes I'm rooted. I've bricked 5 times today and also got a status 0 and status 7 error. I'm a noob with stuff like this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

try this in your updater script.

ui_print("");
ui_print("bootanimation");
ui_print("");
ui_print("");
ui_print("Flashing  bootanimation");
ui_print("Mounting /system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
ui_print("Extracting File");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
show_progress(0.2, 10);
unmount("/system");
ui_print("Done");

bootanimation.zip needs to be in "media" folder inside "system" folder
use notepad++ to edit the updater-script. regular notepad or wordpad changes the format of the file and messes it up. updater-script should have NO extension. make sure your updater-script only contains the above code and nothing else from a previous flashable.

Got the status 0 error again.

status 0 means your using the wrong update-binary file. use a meta-inf folder from a known working flashable file such as a spirit rom or other flashable. did you use notepad++ to edit updater-script?

or download this

unzip it replace your bootanimation.zip
edit updater script to change name of bootanimation and rezip.
