How to change boot animation of any android phone?

Android, being an open source OS, is very easy to hack as per your needs. This also applies to the boot animation. You can actually change the boot animation as per your needs and taste! However, there are two things you need to keep in mind.

1. Your phone needs to be rooted.
2. Boot animations need to be of the same resolution as your phone’s screen. For eg if your phone has a WVGA screen, you need a boot animation in a resolution of 800×480 pixels. A comprehensive list can be found here.
