Incredible Boot Animation

If you look a few pages back, I have uploaded a correct aspect ratio version of the boot animation:

Yep - saw it after I posted. Thank you! I ended up using my own bootanimation and took out the green android animation, so I only have the Droid animation and the Droid sound. Looks and sounds great!
 
Is it hard to do this? Why do our phones not have this, vs. the good ole Verizon Wireless splash screen?
 
Cool trick learned from that page..

Just hold shift and right click and click on open command promt here and it automatically takes you right command line.
 
ummmm i have a question....what do i do when i want the original verizon boot instead of the droid x boot...do i do the same thing except with the original boot...if there is a link for the original that would be great
 
Terminal Emulator force closes on DInc, for me at least. Any alternate program to do this. I have the sound and bootanimation.zip on my SD card and wanted to push it without having to adb shell, im at work, dont have that here...
 
mine didnt either. made my custom audio and it didnt play sound but played the boot. had to redownload the bootanimation.zip from xda and re-push it. works like a charm now
 
Yeah I did the same boot animation but I did all that remains again for the music. Now if only this Shit phone didn't blow the speaker so I could actually hear it
 
Actually if ADB scares you or you don't have it on your PC you can doo everything directly from the Incredible with terminal emulator from the market. Thee commands would be basically the same...

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.bak
cat /sdcard/bootanimation.zip > /system/media/
OR
mv /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
sync
reboot

It will reboot with the new animation, this way is easier if you don't mind using the virtual keyboard.


forget this

I am a noob at this and I am using the better terminal emulator on the DInc and I just cant seem to figure out what im doing wrong. I get to a part where it It looks like a list of stuff and says something about mount unmount blah blah and at the bottom it says -o flags but I cant figure out what the hell im doing wrong.....can someone help, please. I would like to learn how to do this.
