Can't flash new boot animation with Liberty 1.5

[Jaxidian]

With Liberty 1.0, I was able to flash the stock "Android" boot animation from the Fission Rom Manager, which I understand is the standard way to update the boot animation. I have tried both via FRM and manually in Clockwork Recovery to flash new boot animations and it always fails. Messages read success but it still has the Liberty animation.

What's going on here?

The bootanimation.zip is located under /data/data/local/, I believe. Fission's .zips will install to /system/media/

Just manually paste your animation to the new location.

Well, I looked and I don't think /data/data/local/ is right. But the Liberty Toolbox has the option to flash /sdcard/bootanimation.zip so I moved it to that location. After trying to flash it, I had a blank black screen as my boot animation.

Upon further inspection, that Android_Boot_Animation.zip file actually had another file inside it (a couple directories deep) called bootanimation.zip. After extracting that zip file out of the other zip file and placing it at the location I mentioned above, it flashed successfully!

Odd that the update.zip format didn't work but I guess this works good enough for me!
