Help making custom bootscreen (Modest Mouse) - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to make a bootscreen for my hero running Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 RC0. I used the boot animation preview tool located Here to see what it would look like and it seemed to work fine. When I push the zip to my /system/media/ folder and reboot i just get a blank black screen when the animation should be playing. I did the images in photoshop cs5 and saved them 'for web and devices' without transparency, and 8-bit. Is there any other setting that I will need to make this work?
here is the gif created by the boot animation preview program (this is not pushed to phone just for preview purposes)

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I figured it out. The problem was in the zip compression. I had originally packaged it with the default 7zip compression, then today when I was repacking it I used winrar to create a zip file and set the compression rate to 'store' instead of normal and when I pushed to my phone it worked.

Nice work.
I have had a lot of success as well.
The only problem I am having is getting audio to play during boot without using the .gif .xml combination, any suggestions?

[/B][Mod] MyLockScreen CM 4.2.9.1 But Probably all CM's[/B]

This is about installing Stericson's Lock screen along with a custom flash image all at once. This doesn't replace the first splash img that appears- the procedure for doing that is in several tutorials in this forum. This is about choosing a flash image of your liking and replacing the one that is usually tied to the theme or Rom you've installed. Inside the "My Lock" zip is everything that is flashed for Stericsons Lock screen. The only difference is I opened up the framework-res.apk and installed a personal flash image in app/images/ folder. This is where the boot images that zayG1 has posted would go. The second zip "MyBoot.zip" has a picture of mine in one folder, and another folder with an extracted framework.res in it ready for you to mod the boot image in. When you're done, just zip it up into framework-res.apk and copy and paste it into the framework folder that is in the "My Lock" zip. Just make sure you sign the re-zipped MyLock.zip and put it on your sd card and flash it. That's it!
Here is Link to MyBoot.zip

The one I posted is actually not the whole story- I have the "logo-shine.png" passing from left to right behind it illuminating it.-chris

The boot animation is slowed down alot more than this animation.
Now has audio of project 2501 "I Am not AI, My codename is Project 2501, I am a living thinking entity who was created in a sea of information"
*disclaimer* use at own risk you take full responsibility for your actions*
to install:
1. extract zip file
2.copy "bootanimation.zip" and "FinalThunder.mp3" to your sd card
3.then use root explorer or your file manger of choice that can edit root files and copy both files to
/system/media
or
/system/customize/resource
(i know this is where it is on Virus rom)
Varies by which Rom you are running.
/system/media
or
/system/customize/resource

Perhaps part of Origa's Rise? (I think that's the first intro for GitS:SAC)
Or find a clip from the English dub where someone says the stuff in the logo?

Contents:
VZW_bootanimation.zip - logo animation in jpeg @ 15fps
FinalThunder.mp3 - HEV suit "login" sound from the game. "Welcome to the H.E.V. Mk. IV..." that junk.
I've packed everything. I think. Please let me know if there's anything missing or something goes haywire or something.
Oh god how do I use this thing?
• Extract contents, rename VZW_bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.zip
• Either copy the contents onto your SD card and use a root explorer or push them directly using ADB.
- For custom ROMs: /system/media/ or /data/local/, depending on your ROM
- For stock ROMs: it's either /system/customize/ or /data/local/. Refer to your phone's filetree for specific dir pathnames.
• Change permissions rw-r--r-- using any root explorer or chmod 311 /path/to/zip/bootanimation.zip in shell.

Great job, thanks!
how can i get this to work on a 320 by 480 screen?
Try to port this over to I9100 Lulz/Tegrak kernel install. Somehow, even after image converstion to PNG reduce picture count it just wouldn't work. Everything coming out black.. tried for 3 hours. Giving up.... soon...
Give up... dunno why the image is not compatible.. :S
Solved the problem, i was zipping the pictures with compression

[BOOTANIMATION][WIP] Portal Droid

Seen there are few portal boot animations but they seemed to be just shots from the game videos. I decided to give my own take on Portal Droid. First Boot Animation and I intend to touch it up and give it a bit of polish but for the moment I like it.
I made it for my Nexus S so its 480x800 but you can just modify the desc.txt file inside the .zip to your screen size however I don't know how it will work out and as usual apply at your own risk! But seriously if it isn't going to work it just won't run and your phone will boot with no animation.
It loops when the droid is in the infinite fall.

Download link doesn't work.
It actually works, but you have to copy and paste it to address bar of your browser.
I have copied it via copy paste still not working
Add #afyt6yuyoava3 right after mediafire.com/ ,should work.
Trust me its not working for me it just goes striaght to Mediafires home page with both the link and manual typing and if i am logged into my account it will just go directly to that. So the file is not public.
it works fine, just tried it.
