Anyone who would like to give it a try, I suggest to read the RedErik post on the first page of this thread related to PX6 units.
My 8259 unit was only playing "android" glowing logo at the boot start. Confusingly, I did not find this being a dedicated bootanimation, it appears the system has none, so this is Android OS default.
You need to be able to establish adb connection to your HU. Follow the guide to the point where there is
Code:
adb root
command. This will probably error as did on my unit, so keep reading.
Enter the following commands:
Code:
adb shell
you will now be in HU's shell and enter
Code:
su @#zxcvbnmasdfghjklqwertyuiop1234567890,.
remount
At this point your will be kicked from shell and back to command line.
Insert the USB disk with your bootanimation.zip file and check how is this udentified under your HU (you can use ES Explorer or similar file epxlorer on your HU).
Reconnect back after remount, you should now have RW access to your HU.
Code:
adb shell
If you haven't identified how is your USB stick recognised on your system, you can now check in shell too
Code:
cd /storage/
ls
My stick is detected as udisk1. As it has two partitions, storage list them as udisk1p1 and udisk1p2. I have stored my boot animation on the primary partition, yours might be different so modify the below to match your input device
Code:
 cp /storage/udisk1p1/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
That's it. I did not need to adjust permissions using CHMOD so this was the finish for me.
You can now reboot your unit and your effort be rewarded by desired bootanimation playing.



thanks to RedErik for his work, I hope my bit will allow few more guys to enjoy it on their units too now.
Excellent work! I will include your guide in the post about changing animations. I'm sure it will help a lot of people. Thanks again for sharing that!
