If this is the app you installed then this is what is says about troubleshooting it. Since your phone wont turn on all the way try holding volume down, back and power button to get into recovery and do a wipe data/factory reset. I dont know much about that app but if it dont work, then stay away from it no matter how cool it sounds.

Sorry it didnt let me upload the screenshot of the app but this is what it said for troubleshoot:
Troubleshooting:
Boot animation install problems??
1) Try going into Root Tools settings (click menu > settings) and set the install location manually. (most phones use "/data/local/bootanimation.zip" or "/system/media/bootanimation.zip"
2) You may have a bad download. Try removing the file on your sdcard in the roottools folder.
Remember: if something isn't working email me first before rating.
If you like the changes then please re-rate. Please don't rate bad for the 15 minute refund policy. Complain to google instead. If something isn't working email me before complaining where I cannot respond to you.

its happened to me, you either need to flash a recovery or factory reset. or take it to metro and get a new one. there is no return from this.

Its all ssdd ....
Look in the "[Odin] cwm recovery..." thread and install cwm.
It should be doable and simple as well as a good learning experience.
Plus, why run to metro with a lie when you can fix it anyway?

There isn't a need to go to Metro with it. This is an easy fix even for a beginner ir they read the Odin return to stock thread. If they do and still have issues I or another member will be more than willing to help out, all someone needs to do is ask.

That is so true and both of them are right. It does sound simple. Its only an app that messed up thats all.

Once you get it fixed, stick with the apps we talk about on here, we all use pretty much the same ones, the reason is that they work, and work well..
