Thanks so much, I think the .rgb565 was the missing piece I didn't get. It led me to the following link, and I didn't have a issue after. Funny thing is I'm on a mac too, so I had to use parallels.

Here's a splash screen I made for those of you that like pink.

And the file:
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
that would be very hard. i dont have the master files for it, so maybe ask the person who made it. they almost definetally have them. i have no photoshop experiance, and sort of suck at gimp. so the maker would be the way to go on that one.

Fits somewhat nicely with wrx4memp's blue HTC EVO 4g boot animation which can be found here if interested

Enjoy if you decide to use. Grab the corresponding PC36IMG file to flash.

Added purple one as requested, remove the "-purple" part to flash in bootloader:

These Matrix Boot Screens were designed and made for my kind of phone...the Samsung Vibrant....they were not meant for the EVO....but if they work....then ok
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mizzos4:
Yeah, they work since they're just png files. I believe it's just the desc.txt file that needs to be modified.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
I had posted this as a different thread but I think I should have posted it here instead. It seems my evo has become demon possessed when it comes to changing the boot animation. I had tried a couple of different roms to see how they were and got settled on the rom I wanted to keep. I have a custom bootscreen that was created for me and put into a signed zip. I wiped the cache and dalvik and flashed the signed zip. When the phone booted it was still the old boot animation. I deleted the bootanimation.zip file from the /system/customize/resource directory and adb pushed the bootanimation.zip file and confirmed it was there. I reboot and still the old bootanimation. I tried the pushboot app and got the same thing. I have used the android commander app and looked and only see 1 bootanimation.zip file and it is the one I pushed. I pulled it back over and looked inside and verified it is the one I pushed. Is there something I am not doing correctly here?

I love the blue Evo screen by the way. Looks great
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
I had some of these splash and custom animations, and think they are great. But I would like to know is if anyone has found a thread/collection that are edify (EXT 4) compatible, for those that are using CW3?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
In regards to your problem -- pending on your ROM and its creator; the directory for the bootanimation.zip actually might be different than where you're pushing your bootanimation.zip currently.

Try removing any bootanimation.zip inside /system/customize/resource and placing it inside in /system/media instead.

Also note, if neither of these directories work, this might mean that the default bootanimation directory was changed by the ROM developer, in which case, you'll need to find the actual directory instead of the defaults listed above or possibly there is a problem with the bootanimation.zip file itself (which might be the more likely problem).

What ROM are you thinking about running? I'll take a look a the possible bootanimation.zip directories and what's going on.

Flashing a splash screen or a bootanimation shouldn't be dependent upon the filesystem itself, the location to which these files will be placed shouldn't change just because of the filesystem difference.

If you run the fastboot command to flash the splash screen or use a PC36IMG file, your phone will automatically know where to store the Splash screen; for the bootanimation, you can either choose to manually specify the bootanimation directory or define it in an update.zip to be flashed and everything should work out.

Again -- the filesystem shouldn't matter; because the default directories shouldn't/won't be changed.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
If it define it in the update.zip, i can just leave the boot animation zip inside?

Edit: I got it working using adb push. Thank you for your help. :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
Anyway to make this flashable and not through adb? I didn't root that way so I have no clue on how to do it.

Anyone have a flashable nexus one boot animation for the evo also? It's pretty hard to get my hands on one.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Using adb to push files is not that bad. Download the android adk file [can be found on this site] then you open command prompt and navigate to that folder,

ex: cd desktop/name of your folder/tools and you drop the bootanimation.zip folder in tools. Then you would input:

adb remount

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

[time it takes to push]

then adb reboot ; now you'll have your new animation. :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mizzos4:
Here's one you can flash through bootloader. I also removed the IGN watermark.

The nexus one boot should be listed on the first page of OP.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
]

I figure out how to install adb but it would not push for me. When I type in adb remount, it says adb remount not permitted or something. I keep getting read-only file system errors. adb shell brings up a $. It's ridiculous.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
That is awkward. Are you s-off? Your phone is connected with USB debugging enabled? Also on charge only. And you navigated to the tools in the SDK folder via command prompt?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
I was s-off. I even re-rooted my phone. Debugging, charge only, and adb is not in the tools folder for me, it's in platform-tools. How awkward is that huh!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
That is awkward, but try the same thing, but change your path so it would be something like:

cd your directory/android folder/platforms

and just run adb from there; the folder where you run it from doesn't matter, you just need to know where it is.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
It's even that, the system will not remount to to a writable system, it only comes up as read-only. I had to buy root explorer and move them through the sdcard because i can write to the system using that.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
That really is awkward. But were you able to get it running smoothly?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
Yea I got the splash up and running, and also the custom boot animation and mp3. I guess I'll be using root explorer for my customize needs from now on.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Well I'm glad you got it working, one way or another. Also, how did you get your boot sound to work?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] AbsolutZeroGI:
This thread is awesome, thanks for all the work!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
Rename the sound file to SPC_animation_final.mp3 and move it to /system/customize/resource/ reboot your phone and it should be there.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Thanks, I will give it a try.

I tried, but no sound for me, but its not the end of the world.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
Hmmm that's weird. I hope you didn't name it SPC_animation_final.mp3.mp3 because .mp3 is hidden.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
I didn't give it the additional .mp3 in the file name. I guess it just wasn't meant to be :P
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] lost_man10002:
great work guyz!!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Yes, you can use root explorer to place in the correct folder. [/system/media] on the evo. Or you could use adb and push it to the same folder.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
isn't it /system/customize/resource/ on most roms (i know caulkins is system media)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
I honestly couldn't tell you. But yes I do know that some use do use ^ method. But I know for the fact the evo [because I have one] is /system/media. Though I guess you could say its a 50/50 on which set a rom will use. You can always check because if you push it to the wrong folder you should get an error that the folder doesn't exist.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
stock, myns, ava, and every other sense rom i have tried besides caulkins is /system/customize/resource/, and most people on this forum have an evo, so...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Well a lot of people use Cyanogen and other AOSP roms, they remove sense and additional bloatware that slows down the phone. I personally do have an Evo, great phone in my opinion. But like i said, just try to write the file to either directory, whichever doesn't give you an error that's where the file is. And neither system is better, just developer preference. I prefer /system/media because its just 1 less folder to go through.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
just to clarify (most) aosp is /data/local/ and if you remove sense/bloat, the boot stays in the same place. but other than that, very true.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Max_Pain:
has there been any new boot animations added? i'm wanting to change mine but can't find anything new and good...and the links in the OP all look the same to me:confused:
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
@ teh roxxorz and @dkdude36 -- The default bootanimation folder for almost any AOSP ROM will always be /system/media/. Sense ROM's are the only ones that really differentiate and tend to have there bootanimations inside, of course /system/customize/resource. Motorola, Samsung, LG, etc all usually come with a Vanilla stock ROM with a UI face lift and natively leave the default file structures the same; HTC however does not and moves things around -- most notably the bootanimation directory.

Also, in regards to the /data/local folder -- that's actually not the default directory; that's a developer specified thing and quite frankly a dumb one at that, since it causes lots of problems for pre-existing bootanimtions (flashable or being pushed via ADB) that are by default supposed to go to /system/media or /system/customize/resource.

Lastly, in some ROM's you won't find a "bootanimation.zip" file and instead you'll find a bootanimation executable file, which has instructions to display a default bootanimation altogether, though this too can be changed as well.

You don't have to look only in this thread you know? You can find bootanimations anywhere and push them to your phone -- if they don't work or properly conform to the EVO, well then its a matter of editing them to do so. That's where I or anyone else willing to help can fix problems like that. Find what you like and if it breaks with the EVO, post it and we'll fix it to make it work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
I am looking for the 4G animation on the evo that breaks apart or comes together when you boot up the evo. I have only seen this one time. Not sure if it comes together or apart and has a breaking sound. Anyone have an idea or a screen shot to verify and have a file to us. Any help out there??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:

Win? No... I don't win anything -- I've just been around for a while and have made bootanimations kinda my specialty, my aim was to only give the proper information based on what I've gathered thus far.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
why does everyone take me saying 'you win' so seriously? i guess thats the problem with the internet. i should have said it like this

No. Sarcasm is not allowed here under the given guidelines from XDA. Please see the EVO sticky about this.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Yes I do believe that is the one with the Yellow 4G. Does anyone have that on a download??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
The file below is what I believe you're looking for. Download and flash via recovery.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
I will try it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Well I downloaded that Stock animation to my Sd card and flashed it and rebooted and nothing. I still have just a black with white letter HTC when it boots.

This is what I did to let you know.

1. boot into recovery

2. go to flash zip from SD

3. Flash the file I loaded

4. Go back and reboot.

5. still the same Black with white letters boot screen

Am I missing something??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Were you trying to flash a splash or animation?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
I can tell you without a doubt; that if you are using a Sense based ROM -- this will work. I just flashed it myself to test and of course, it does.

Please state what ROM you are using. If you know how to use ADB, you could always push the bootanimation.zip file directly to the specificed directory; which is:: /system/customize/resource for a Sensed based ROM; otherwise if you are using an AOSP ROM (CM), then you'll need to push the bootanimation.zip file to /system/media.

Again, I've tested the file I've given you and it does work; assuming you are running a Sense based ROM.

Also, the steps you are taking to flash the file are correct.

He's talking about the bootanimation.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
I am running the Sprint Lovers Rom. I am trying to flash the File labeled Boot-Animation. I am not sure how to use ADB.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Sorry....I am running the Sprint Lovers Rom. I am trying to flash the File labeled Stock- Bootanimation. I am not sure how to use ADB.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
I think that's your problem.

What you should have done:

1. Download the line I uploaded earlier

2. DO NOT EXTRACT IT

3. Copy that file in its entirety to your sdcard

4. Boot into recovery

5. Choose the "Flash a file" option

6. Select the Stock-Bootanimation.zip file

7. Flash it and reboot.

After you've done that, you should see the bootanimation.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
That is what I did. I clicked on the link you put up. I downloaded it to my computer. But when I downloaded it to my computer it only is labeled Stock-Bootanimation No .zip behind it. But if I put the cursor over it, it does say it is a compressed Zip folder. I tranfered that to my root of the SD card. I went into recovery. I flashed the file labeled Stock-Bootanimation.zip I went down to Go Back and then Reboot and nothing changed. Can I maybe Flash another Rom Like Cakulin with this Stock Boot-animation and then go back to Sprint Lovers Rom. Is there something maybe in the Sprint Lovers Rom that is not letting this Stock - Bootanimation to flash.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
I figured out the problem, which is NOT caused by the what you're doing or what I'm doing, but rather caused by the DEVELOPER of the ROM. I've stated this earlier about developers changing the default directory of the bootanimation and sure enough -- this developer did that.

Below, you will see what I'm speaking of::

That line changes the default directory of the bootanimation and sound file for the ROM; meaning if you were to try and push a bootanimation file to the Stock default directory (/system/customize/resource) it wouldn't work like it normally should, because of the directory change. The developer states this on the front page, but far too often this is ignored by many users, including myself as I feel the default directory is sufficient.

In any case, I've changed the default directory and the file names associated so that this will work now. Please download this new file and flash like you did before through recovery.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Well, I am at a total loss here. I tried the new Stock-Bootanimation-OnlyforSLROM.zip you just loaded. Loaded it to the Root of Sd card, and flashed in recovery. Rebooted and still got the same old Black background with white HTC and then a White screen with HTC with Quietly Brilliant under it...same as before. I still can not get this to work. I am at a total loss of something else to try. I must be doing something different than you are either that or I have just one uncooperative phone here..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
Yup, that's my fault; I forgot to update the update-script. Should be fixed now. Download this new version.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Ok I will try this one. It will not hurt to try again.

If not I may try something I have not done before with something a that was posted on the Sprint Lovers Thread to do. That is as follows.

"Chris left it in the rom... It's in the data/animation folder. The stock animation and boot sound both end with _orig. Using root explorer, delete the 2 files that chris uses and remove the _orig from both files and you will have the default again."

I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Well, just to let you know the second zip file you put up is the one that works. I want to thank you for the hard work and interest in helping a newbe with this. THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
Does anyone know why my boot sound won't work? I correctly did the abd push of SPC_animation_final.mp3 to the /system/customize/resource folder, but still no sound.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jcp2000:
can someone help me get this boot screen please!?! lol been looking every where cant find it. it might be because i suck idk

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfdROjQ5lOU&feature=related
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
What rom?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
CM7 nightlies. I've come to the conclusion that boot sounds aren't enabled on the rom.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
nope. there is no code that runs that says to run any sounds while booting. to bad.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teh roxxorz:
I thought so, but thanks for confirming it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
I can't find that one specifically, but if I remember that was done from a Hero developer. However, this one here is pretty good and was made for the EVO specially. Check it out.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
Now that we got that fixed, I was wondering if there is any way you can tell me or even e-mail detailed direction on how to install a splash screen. That is the one that comes on for sometime before the boot animation comes on. The one I am interested in is the Apple killer from the first page of this thread.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
There are two different methods; one is to use a command called fastboot (my preferred method) and the other is package the Splash Screen you want into a PC36IMG file and flash it via the bootloader.

I can go ahead and create that package for you. If you don't mind -- PM me or link the specific Splash Screen you want and I'll create the package and upload it and also give you instructions on how to flash the package.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] blaster127:
I think I would like to try to learn how to do the Bootloader method. It seems like this is used for several things I the operation of programming the phone. Also I may want to change the Splash Screen from time to time. If you can let me know what I kind of software I need on my computer and give me step by step detailed instruction , I may try to do it. Below is the link to the page ( #1 in this thread) This is the one I am interested in now.
