I tried it. First downanimation didn't work.
But I changed permissions on it and then everything was fine.

Permissions must be set for bootanimation.zip and downanimation.zip like this :
Owner : Read-Write
Group : Read
Others : Read

Use Root Explorer to change permissions.

Thanks for Black HTC Splashscreen. I love it.

Default easy replace for Virgin US

Get your favorite bootanimation.zip... Rename it to Sprint_bootanimation.zip... Backup current /system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip [rename it to Sprint_bootanimation_orig.zip or something]... Drop your new boot animation into aforementioned directory [you may need es explorer w root or root explorer to mount rw]... And you're set.

Files to edit:
Sprint_bootanimation.zip ... for boot up
Sprint_downanimation.zip [need to fix permissions] ... for shut down
(Couldn't get the audio files to work right)

No need to flash the P...zip through hboot; sounded risky to me anyway.

I added a marvel boot [but it's way too large to keep] check it out at : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...09&postcount=1

I'm currently running cm7 and i really like the boot animation of it.
Can I just flash the downanimation and the PG76IMG.zip for changing the htc screens to black?

Just want to be sure

The PG76IMG.zip takes care of the boot splash.

Could someone probably provide the original boot animation in black?

The other two worked - thanks especially for the boot screen in black. Never seen that before !

Hey, I'm getting "You cannot paste here because the file system is read-only."

What should I do? :S
I'm using Root Explorer.
