where can i go and how do i re-install that thunder noise when the phone boots up?
Tbolt bootanimation.zip: http://bit.ly/qC9nxm
VZW initial boot sound: http://www.multiupload.com/YICXKSGZSP
Tbolt animation and thundersound for Droids that you can pull the sound out of: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9OQW2AY3
To get sound an animation working together you may have to find someone w/ a custom bootanimation binary (not sure if the stock one would work). I'd imagine someone's done it around here though.
Ok but where do we put the audio file?

Stock rom (and possibly some custom based on stock):
/system/customize/resource/
Custom Roms (really depends on the rom but for aosp/CM based):
You can place it in /data/local or /system/media or wherever you want but it's not going to play unless you either modify the bootanimation binary or add a script to run the sound using stagefright on boot.

Edit:
After thinking about it, I decided that might be a little confusing to some considering those links are for other devices. They were mainly for reference since the principle applies to nearly any device running aosp/CM based roms really. Stock roms should already have the required binaries.

I have been looking for the last couple days for this...
I want to simply flash a Kernel that will allow me to load my custom "bootanimation.zip" file into system/media and it show on boot-up. The catch is, I don't care to do this by flashing a custom ROM. Don't get me wrong, I really like some of the ROM's that these guys have created, I just don't want to go crazy with them. I want to make my own mix of greatness!
I did the update over Kies Mini, but then flashed the deodexed KA7 stock ROM from the Bible (In development). So it's the stock kernel that came with the KA7 build that I'm running.
I need to know what Kernel is compatible with the KA7 ROM
OR
how do i modify the system myself to make it work with custom bootanimation.zip files??
Any help is appreciated!!!

you can use any 2.2. kernel (most, if not all, support bootanimation.zip) with any 2.2 firmware/ROM. just keep a heads up because a lot of kernels flash their own modem. So if you flash a kernel that flashes a modem besides KA7, you would have to reflash KA7 manually if you want to keep it.
I would PERSONALLY recommend Eugene's Dead Horse kernel....just read before you flash!!!

I've flashed the deodexed KB1 ROM as well as the new KB1 Kernel + Voodoo by supercurio. I have his kernel specifically because it says in the main post "Also supported: custom boot animation, init.d scripts and an improved adb shell (new!)"
I love voodoo... but that's beside the point!
I've copied my bootanimation.zip folder (zipped using store mode, uncompressed) into the system/media folder on my phone and deleted the two samsungbootloop files in there. The damn thing still doesn't play the animation! I only have a 'part0' folder which houses all images labeled 'welcomanimation_0000' with progressing numbering. Permissions set are RWXRWXRW- as they are on most the custom ROM bootanimations I see around.
My 'desc' file has EXACTLY THIS in it:
480 800 30
p 0 0 part0
which was pulled straight from another ROM's bootanimation files!
I don't get it! What in the world am I missing??
It's irritating seeing all of these great boot animations and I can't get my own one working... anyone know what I'm screwing up?
Edit: I'm going to try flashing a custom bootanimation file and simply replacing their file with my file and see if there is something in their script in the flashing process that get's modified that I'm not doing myself through root explorer. Respond and let me know if that is a bad idea... I plan on trying it in about an hour after getting some crap done around the house.
Well... for anyone else that has had this issue...
Downloading an already packaged bootanimation file from one of these lovely moders... replacing their bootanimation.zip file in the media folder and packaging it all back up in a flashable zip folder worked like a charm! Thank you to whomever it was I took the file from... if I knew how to package a file to be flashable, I probably would have done it myself, but I didn't want to go through the hassle of learning.
Problem Solved!
Hello,
What i am looking for is the Stock Bootanimation.zip file that comes with fascinate. What i wanna do is get the PNG files that make up the verizon boot logo. I want to take this and use it to make a boot animation for a diff device.
All i have is the bootanimation.qmg but i have searched and have not been able to find a way to get the images out fo htat compressed format.
Thanks for all your assistance in advance.
The stock boot animation isn't a zip file, it's a .qmg file...
stock kernels for fascinate don't support bootanimation.zip files. The .qmg is a proprietary format chosen by Samsung (shock!) and developed for them by the QURAM Corp. However, many custom roms DO support bootanimation.zip startup logos. (SuperClean 2.92 is a superb example)
The shutdown sequence however, is in .png format, although it also comes with a .cfg configuration file. Its located in /system/media/video/shutdown
Hope this helps.
Any way to get that boot animation? When I rooted my gf's fascinate, it replaced the verizon one with the default "android" in landscape mode.
Little off topic but similiar (not trying to hijack post), can you get the orignal backgound back after changing it to something else? It's not listed in the wallpaper choices.
I'm not sure specifically, but it seems that it depends on the kernel you have if you can install custom boot animations, since the Fascinate (and probably other Galaxy phones) don't really have the .zip support (i'm guess on what i've read).
I'm sure someone will correct me, lol

Are you referring to the background that looked like water? I believe it's been replaced by a different water one and that one is listed under live wallpapers.

No the rock formation background/wallpaper when you first bootup after installing 2.0.
Alrighty now. This is my first big question to post and I have looked for a real answer for this. It concerns customized boot animations. What depends on the use of using custom boot animation? The rom or the kernel. I have just installed Simply Honey 5.1 beta 1 and forced a custom into system/media using root explorer r/w set and permissions set as what I have seen on every link I have read. Rebbot and nothing. Does SH 5.1B1 not support them or is it Bullet because I had just created my own bootanime with Samus scene from Metroid Other M and using death scene from Metroid Prime 3 as shutdown?
Nevermid, I found the info I was looking for, mostly. Only problem is still bootanimation.zip not playing still but shutdown is. I will prevail but if someone knows what I am doing wrong please throw your two cents in, please.
Not certain but is the location for the bootanim different in GB?
Sent from my SGH-T959
Samsung animations are in the same locations in froyo and GB. I have changed boot sounds and now loaded audiophile on 4g and valhalla on the vibrant. No go on both. I am guessing but guess i will ask both creators of these great roms since GB is new for sgs4g and a ported rom on vibrant. i have both boot and shutdown animations ready to run.
Im sorry audiophile on sgs4g and simply honey on the vibrant. DOH!!
I got a reply from explodingboy last night and he said the talon kernel does custom boot animations so I tested it out today with my own. And it works! Just rename bootanimation.zip to sanim.zip push into system/media and set your permissions to rw-r--r--. I used root explorer but I you can use advanced. Just remember to set it back to ro or something will or wont happen. Talon for the vibrant can be found in the Simply Honey Gingerbread thread third post. Thank you eb!
Hi,
I have read through all the posts regarding bootsound for my rom and others and also other phones and have tried many different options.
I have tried for 5days now trying figure how to get sound to work on boot up.
I have put PowerOn.wav and PowerOn.mp3 and PowerOn.ogg in both the system/etc directory and system/media directory, and no luck hearing sound on boot up.
The volume is set as high as possible, all volumes.
I've also tried android_audio.mp3 and android_audio.wav and android_audio.ogg in both directories and all 6 in data/local too and still nothing.
I have tried with BAC app and still nothing.
I have westcrips Resurrection remix 1.4 and 1.5 kernel supplied. I have also tried thoravukk kernel and nothing.
What should I do?
somethimes after u flash kernels the sound goes off,some kernel support sound an some dont..
bootsound
i thought that might be the case, so i tried it with stock kernel that comes with Westcrips res remix (cm9) and then i flashed thoravukk kernel and tried sound again and still nothing.
Would you know what kernel i could try that actually does support bootsound??
better ask this in the remix resurection thread,,,i am on stock an yes i do flash an for me too some roms don give the boot sound,but coming to auto everything works...
Thanks for your help.
Unfortunately I am unable to post yet in that forum because I am new
Location is >>> for ICS system /etc PowerOn.OGG.
jje
Thanks for that. I've tried that file aswell. I don't suppose you have a working poweron.ogg file.
I used a converter to convert original sgs2 sound poweron.wav to .ogg but I'm hoping my issue is simply incompatible format or size. Its really doing my head in.
From stock rom .

Unfortunately I can't download the file, it keeps trying to download but it each time as it starts it fails. Can u post it on here at all?
If it is CM9 base it wont work. Its to do with the system vold. Samsung run a different system vold, vold.stab and several other files. Better off a samsung based ROM that has been modded to be mostly AOSP.
I will be uploading one very soon, but I am still testing. Bootsound works. it was own of my requirements.
Check out dynamic or anyone in the list of Touchwiz based ROMs even though they may not look TW they will have the required files.
Also siyah kernel seems to support this along with all the other cool stuff like FM radio etc. Use it. It also allows for duel boot systems i.e. you can run two OS and you it supports CM and Samsung which is even better. no need to change kernels at all

Hello,
Try renaming the file to:
boot_audio
and this should be im mp3 format. Place it on this path:
system/media
reboot and check.

Hello all,
So I've been searching for a way to change the boot animation on my S3, all I was able to find were ~year old or older tutorials...
(Currently have version 4.4.2, model i747M)
Now I've got no boot animation at all, (sound is still there), and I'm just looking to get it back. (Or if possible a custom one but I'll settle for anything at this point.)
I used the following tutorial to try and change it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063280
I believe, (based off the files used in the tutorial), that the problem may be in/with the following:
/system/bin/bootanimation (exe)
or
/system/bin/samsungani (exe)
or
/system/bin/sh (text file)
Any help would be amazing.

Hello there, @JamPro,
To restore your boot animation, check out the tutorial here.
Hey @thenookieforlife3,
I've already tried this, (and just tried it again), and sadly it didn't work.
I believe the problem may be with/in:
/system/bin/bootanimation (exe)
or
/system/bin/samsungani (exe)
or
/system/bin/sh (text file)
They were altered/used with the original tutorial that I tried.
Thank you very much for trying though
Do you have a custom rom or just rooted stock? Samsung uses qmg files for the stock and custom ones are in zip format typically.

I just have rooted stock. The tutorial I used uses .zip's, but, I think, it might have been a work around instead of using .qmg files.
Either way, I have my original bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsumgloop.qmg files, but it won't display the stock animation...
I've added some potential fixes in my original post. None of them worked for me, but anyone looking for a potential fix should give them a look.
