Changing Bootanimation/Startup sound - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have a rooted Nexus One FRF91 Build
I want to change the bootanimation and startupsound
I was able to change the bootanimation through ADB because the ROOT version was not working.
Same with the startup sound, is it even possible to have a startup sound on a nexus one?
Guide would be nice, also is there some secret thing I need to know, I am rooted tried the guides but it did not work.

Take whatever bootanimation you want, copy to /system/media/bootanimation.zip (overwrite the system one).
If you want to retain system bootanimation but still overwrite it - copy to /data/local/bootanimation.zip instead (might not work - I'm not sure if it's ROM-specific).
Don't know about the startup sound, living perfectly without one.

My inquiry was based of this (from adroidfourms .com)
I bolded the part I didn't understand/possible reason it is not working for me
PLEASE NOTE: You must be rooted. You must reboot in order for these changes to take effect. You should have Root Explorer (although I am sure there is a way with ADB commands as well though). You may want to create a backup (CWM or the like), just in case. Also, most of the people I have seen do this are running a version of Dirrk's/jt's kernel, which allow boot/shutdown animations to be changed. The kernel you are currently using when attempting to change the animations must allow for them to be changed for this to work.
The file needed to change your boot-up animation should be a .zip file.
I successfully changed my bootup animation by doing the following:
Boot-up animation:
1) download a new boot animation .zip file (I put mine in /sdcard/downloads)
2) open Root Explorer
3) navigate to where you put the new .zip
4) copy the new .zip
5) paste it into /data/local
6) rename it "bootanimation.zip." (if it isn't already)
Also, if you want to change the startup/shutdown sounds:
Startup sound:
1) DL a new sound file
2) convert to a .wav file (using Winamp+.wav converter/iTunes)
3) put on SD card
4) open Root Explorer
5) navigate to /system/etc
6) rename "PowerOn.wav" to "PowerOn.wav.old"
7) navigate to where you placed the DL'ed .wav file
8) copy
9) paste into /system/etc
10) rename it "PowerOn.wav"
Shutdown sound:
1) DL a new sound file
2) convert to .ogg file (I used Winamp+.ogg converter)
3) put on SD card
4) open Root Explorer
5) navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
6) rename "shutdown.ogg" to "shutdown.ogg.old"
7) navigate to the DL'ed .ogg file
8) copy
9) paste into /system/media/audio/ui
10) rename it "shutdown.ogg"

Setting a custom Bootanimation

Hey folks,
just a quick one for those who are interested. You can set a custom Bootup Animation. Most/All Animations you find online will work. Mind though, with the Mate 7 you won't be able to use provided flushable Zip files. So here's a short how-to
1. Download the Animation you want
1.1 Determine if the zip is a flashable file or the Animation itself (both are zip files)
If you don't now, unpack the file. If its folders named "Part1, Part2,..." You have the Animation. If you see a "System" folder, it's flashable.
1.2 in case of flushable: Browse to "\System\Media" and save the zip file on your PC
2. Push the Zip File to your Phone (Anywhere you are able to find it again )
3. Use a Root Explorer on your Phone (i like ES Explorer) and mount your "root" as RW (google the exact steps for your chosen Explorer)
4. Copy the "boot animation.zip" to "\cust\preinstalled\pubilc\media"
5. Reboot and Enjoy
Just for you, i'll add the Stock Android L Bootanimation:

[Guide] How to extract bootanimation.zip from apk (CM theme engine)

​
Hello People,
Today i am going to show you how to extract bootanimation.zip from apk. So lets begin,
You would want to apply custom boot animation like the CM theme engine but as the animations in cyanogenmod are in apk format, you cannnot apply them on other Roms. But now don't worry now i have got a way to apply them to non-cyanogenmod devices.
Requirements :
Boot animation apk. I will use the one given below.
File explorer (I would use Es file explorer)
Steps :
Navigate to the downloaded apk and long press it.
Under the 3 dot menu select extract to and extract the apk.*
Now you will find the bootanimatio.zip file in assets folder.*
Now*go to the root folder and navigate through system>media.**Once there locate your current bootanimation.zip file
Long-press your current bootanimation.zip file, and click copy, as we'll want to have a backup just in case. Paste it wherever convenient for you OR simply change the extension from .zip to .bak
Once your new bootanimation.zip has been selected for moving, navigate back to system > media and paste it there. You'll have to overwrite your current animation zip, but that's fine since you have a backup in case something goes wrong. Go for it.
For many of you, the previous step will be the last step. But, if for any reason you're still stuck with you old animation, you can try aligning the permissions of your newly-copied bootanimation.zip file with the permissions in the system/media folder. In our case, those were rw-r-r. Just long-press your new bootanimation.zip file and click Permissions and change them until they fit. The logic behind these abbreviations goes like this: Owner - Group - Other. Read for 'r', Write for 'w', and Execute for 'x'. Save the changes and restart...
Done, Show this awesome boot animation to your friends.*
Note :
You are choosing to make these modifications, and dont point the finger at me for messing up your device.

Nubia Z17 Lite boot animation different
The Z17 Lite may be different than most phones in that it uses some more sub directories.
Load you zip file to System/media/theme/bootup instead of system/media.
I also cut all the picture and txt files and moved them to system/media/theme so the media manage would not find them.
