Must Be Rooted

There are Two Methods for Doing This

Root Explorer method:

1. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation (if it's not already)

2. Put it on your SD card

3. Open Root Explorer and copy bootanimation.zip to /system/media. This will replace the existing boot animation (might be a good idea to rename stock one to bootanimation.zip.bak...just to have a backup)

4. Reboot your phone


ADB method:

0. might be a good idea to rename stock one to bootanimation.zip.bak...just to have a backup...see above)
