HTC Sensation T-Mobile - Can't Change downanimation.zip on rooted device

[anon8294806]

Hi

I rooted my HTC sensation T-Mobile smartphone. I wanted to get rid of the T-Mobile boot and down animations.

I changed the file names of TMOUS_bootanimation.zip and TMOUS_downanimation.zip by adding the .bak extension at the end of the names. These files were found in system/customize/resources

I no longer have the T-Mobile animation on startup but have only the default android animation.

I want to use the generic HTC boot animation as both my bootanimation.zip and downanimation.zip. I copied and replaced both files file in the directory already mentioned. I only get a black screen on shutdown.

I did notice that when I moved both files to system/media, the generic HTC animation worked on startup but not on shutdown.

I changed the permissions and ownerships of both files and nothing seems to work for the downanimation.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
