WARNING: Please be advise that editing the bootanimation zips (both booting and shutdowns) may cause the screen to remain black upon a successful boot if the files were not zipped properly and you will need a recovery to undo what you've done because that will not go away.

Change log:
3/24/15 - added the Matrix (the movie) themed bootanimations.
3/23/15 - added cm12 bootanimation

Update: Not maintaining this thread anymore.

So here's my box folder of bootanimations for the MS395. All were tested on my own device and I will not upload something that isn't tested. (may work on other variants of the f60 because it's the same resolution):
https://app.box.com/s/n41pix275ill4ddj0re8wkr6p5ovc3vp

Rename the regular bootanimation zips to "bootanimation" then you move them to /system/media/ and set permission to rw-r--r--
For now I'm laying off making flashable zips until I figure out why it's not writing the files properly.

You could also switch out the "shutdownanimation.zip" as well with these, they're the same format. Just make sure to rename whatever your using to "shutdownanimation.zip."

Stuff that's made so far:
Stock-metro (not edited or tweaked, just here for backup)
metro_adj_zpslzriagbh.gif~original


Space-bootanimation (ported from xda member llevo3's post). Also ported his blue variant one as well.

L-preview (25% reduction size of the animation so it doesn't look too bloated)

Okay well I've finally figured out the problem with the device and solved the issue of not compressing the bootanimation zip too much.

Can we get a black one? I want this because I disabled the boot logo with build prop editor. I couldn't find a way to disable the boot off animation but I do know where that zip is located I just need a black boot off animation.
Bonus if you know how to disable the shut down animation instead of replacing it ;)
Add the line:
debug.sf.nobootanimation=1
In your build.prop

I've got this I just need to disable the boot off animation when you power off the phone it says metro PCS and it can be really but REALLY bright... Thanks anyways. :)
Oh and that cause case you could rename system/media/shutdownanimation.zip to something else or delete it. There will be just darkness for a few seconds before a reboot or shutdown.
