Root [Sprint/Cricket] Bootanimation question

[nuudle]

With some help I was able to remove the Sprint bootanimation successfully and wanted to replace it with something cool. The only problem is I have no clue how to do it.lol.... Im pretty new at this so if someone can point me in a direction it would be greatly appreciated! Peace

To use Bootanimation.zip
Using the root explorer, navigate to system/bin
you will be working with 2 files.

*First find a file named "samsungani" (no file extension) and rename it (ex samsunganiBAK)
*Secondly find a file named "bootanimation" (also, no file extension) and rename this file to "samsungani" without the quotation.

[FONT=&quot]Get the bootanimation.zip file that you want to use (or create your own).

Put the bootanimation.zip in the System/Media folder.

I found some bootanimation.zip files over at XDA but have no idea how to navagate the menu to install them properly. Can I unzip in recovery??

You don't unzip. You put the Zip file in the Main System/Media folder. Drag and drop. I use Solid Explore on the phone.
