ihtfp69, I'm extremely glad to see you doing some work on the xoom. I've been a huge fan of the skyraider rom for the incredible for a while now, and have my xoom on order. I should have it in just a couple days, and i'm sure some of your work will be applied to my xoom within the first hour!
Nice..old school...its also a shorter animation. Its a keeper.

Thanks a bunch for this. I have not played around with adb much, so this was a learning experience for me as well.
Not that I am going to do this anytime soon, but if we need to put it back to stock how can we uninstall this?
Now that I've gone this far, maybe rooting and overclocking are next ;-)

Must this be copied over via adb push? From what I've read adb push looks like just a normal copy, so I'm trying to do this manually using dropbox and es file explorer, but not having any luck. The .zip file should just go in /data/local? Or it should be extracted there? I tried both, but neither seemed to work.
If you don't use adb, you must be rooted and use either a terminal app or root explorer. I don't think other file explorers can see the directory.

My only complaint about this is that it can't keep up with my xoom. Only once did it get as far as the android, but usually my xoom is booted long before then. Thanks for this though, stock bootani is ugly

If I am rooted and use Root Explorer to access /data/local, do I just copy the zip file there or do I extract it there?
Q what if .. I forgot to add /local to my data dir ... and pushed it anyways (it does work) where do I find the zip file in case I like to remove it and go back to stock .... and I just like to know where it was pushed to since theres no /local dir in my xoom
thanks
(I pushed it before I noticed theres no /local dir)

35I got tired of that default animation so I whipped this one up to replace it. It's based off of the one from the Nexus One but completely re-done and optimized for the Xoom. This retro style BIOS POST animation is reminiscent of those older PCs we all miss and love.
This will work for both rooted and non-rooted Xooms. If yours is not rooted, you can place this in /data/local and it will still work. If your Xoom is rooted, you can place it in /system/media or /data/local. Let me know how you like it and don't forget about the Thanks button.
Code:adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

I did the same thing. If that directory is not there, you can create it.
Code:adb shell mkdir /data/local adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

It's there even if you can't see it. Just connect through adb and do
Code:rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip
