Are you rooted or stock?

Just place this file in data/local, system/media, or system/customize/resource

If your bootanimation has a name with it rename it to match but most bootanimation are bootanimation.zip

I'll post what my screen looks like so u can get a idea:

Seems that the three aforementioned folders don't apply to Cog Beta 4. I looked in all three, but there was no file named bootanimation.zip. I did a search for 'bootanimation' and the only file that showed up was a file named 'bootanimation' in system/bin, with no zip suffix.

There was a file in system/media called ODEAnim.zip (it was the only zip file in there), and I tried replacing that with the one I downloaded, but it didn't work.

Anyone know where I should put this thing?

no idea what do do exactly, but I can confirm for you that I've had the exact same problem...
I'm guessing it has to do with designgears taking out the traditional bootanimation?

If you're using Entrophy's latest kernel and/or Cognition, throw it in /system/media/ and make sure it's STILL named "bootanimation.zip" . Change the permissions if you want, but it's really not necessary. If you're running rooted stock, then it will not work as you need boot animation support at the kernel level to use them. Flash Entrophy's kernel or Cog.

So this boot animation is not possible without root then? I would love to root but i have yet to find any information that explains rooting in terms i can understand, right now its still just a bunch of random abbreviations to me.

I'm using Cognition beta 4 and I have put it in my system/media/ folder and it is named bootanimation.zip. Still doesn't work for me for some reason.
