Instructions
Copy/download the animation's zip to your SD card
Open Root Explorer
Rename the file to TMUS_bootanimation.zip (Only for stock/iced glacier. Name may change for other roms.
CM 6 it should be bootanimation.zip)
Copy the animation to /system/customize/resources (don't forget to mount the resources folder as r/w before copying)
Done!
Instructions CM 7:
Copy/download the animation's zip to your SD card
Open Root Explorer
Copy the animation from your SD card to /system/media/ (don't forget to mount the media folder as r/w before copying)
Done!
Also you can use adb push as well if you place the "bootanimation" in the sdk tools folder....
command is here: adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
test animation by opening a command window and typing
adb shell
bootanimation
exit with Ctrl+C

HOT! will definitely flash this if it is compatible..
Do you have the link to the bootanimation.zip for this. Splash is the static screen before the animation
Edit: nevermind I found it. Yes it runs on our phones, however the image is kinda small (uses about 1/3 of the screen right in the middle) and would need to be resized to look right.
Great post a link if we get this set up. Anyone care to pm me the process of changing the bootscreen?

changing bootani depends on which ROM you are running
Do we just glash zip through recovery? This is awesome.
does this one fit the screen better?

i keep on getting a yellowish line above the actual animation....is it just me?
it did the same on mine, I believe it is because the animation images are wrong resolution for our phones they are 256x256 instead of 480x800
Do we just flash zip through recovery? This is awesome.

If you download a boot animation that is flashable, steal the zip file and change the bootanimation.zip to yours in the /system/media folder of the flashable zip file. Then rezip the flashable if you unzipped it and name it what you want.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
^ that is what I suggested too... but erased my message because I downloaded a flashable zip and it was not what I was expecting.. didnt have the meta folder and system/media folder.
I may try another flashable bootup later.

Back from vacation and at a computer...
Will not flash on a Gingerbread Rom.. Holy monster bootanimation.zip file size. Compress the images at all? I will upon request, but here is how you had it, but flashable,
Basketball slam dunk bootanimation FLASHABLE
Please steal this folder structure and use it in the future by just replacing the bootanimation.zip with another in the /system/media directory. Or follow the previous post link on how to make your own.

Now that most of us have s-off and custom recovery, we need some customizations to hold us over until the roms start flooding in.
I saw a Portal 2 boot animation and got the bootanimation.zip from the teaser thread, but flashing it did a whole lot of nothing.

I want that boot animation too
E3D
I'm anxiously awaiting some boot screens tailored for the 3d too. Cant wait
You can use existing boot animations here is how:
Find the one you want and download it
Rename the boot animation to Sprint_bootanimation.zip
Use root explorer to go to /system/customize/resource find Sprint_bootanimation.zip copy it to a safe place
Get back to /system/customize/resource and delete Sprint_bootanimation.zip(in root explorer you have to mount r/w)
Then copy and paste the new Sprint_bootanimation.zip to /system/customize/resource
The stock animation is 540 x 960
I have tried a few and it works fine, but i'll be waiting for some 3d anim.
http://alpharev.nl/bootanimation.zip try this one yet?
I just did works fine, looks like a star wars scene mixed with a blue droid eye. I'm gonna use it for a while.

Anybody have any pics or videos of this before I blindly flash it to satisfy my urge to flash anything!
It's the ending sequence / scene of portal 2.
It didn't install for me. It said 'Updating package' and just went back to the menu. I tried several times.
Tried this, but when I try to mount r/w in root explorer, nothing happens. it still says Mount R/W and doesn't change to R/O
Yay!! Portal 2... Poor Wheatly.

Deleting the bootanimations altogether will give you that sweet throwback android boot animation. Also, you can rename and place the bootanimation.zip in /system/media

OK so I can't figure out how to add the boot animation and get it to work. I'm putting the unzipped sanim. Zip into the system/media folder with rim toolbox but the boot room won't run.
Any ideas?

I'm having the same issue. I don't see that file in the media folder to begin with. I didn't think you had to unzip it though.

Maybe that's my problem. I'll try it without unzipping it.
Edit: nope that wasn't it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
If that does the trick, let me know. I just don't know what file that would be replacing since I don't see sanim.zip to begin with.

Just an fyi, custom boot animations are not possible if ur running ICS due to no source for the kernel.. If ur on GB, try searching the play store there are quite a few apps that will do all the work for you with a kernel that supports custom boot animations. hope this helps.

ok so i still am not able to get the cm9 boot animation to work. anyone have any ideas I've already tried just renaming the file and placing it into /system/media but I get nothing. I don't know what else to try.
I'm at a loss. Did a search in ES file explorer and came up with nothing. Isn't that file supposed to already exist, and you're replacing it? In my wife's phone I see it under system/media as bootanimation.zip. Can't find that either.
Edit:she does not have a Note.

Usually the boot animation is located in system/media and named samsungbootanimation.qmg by default.
Now that file is in there, along with what looks like a bootloop file(bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg) So are we naming the new file the same and adding a bak to the original for safe keeping?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I never really tried, but if I had to go play around with it, that'd be my way of doing it. Just make sure you aren't renaming a .zip file to qmg. That will mess things up severely.
Anyone have any luck with this? Was gonna use rom toolbox. Anyone have success with that?
Sent from Galaxy Note
Just rename the zip to bootanimation.zip and place it in media folder....thats what works for me
Also delete the samsung.qmg files

as far as I know... the file name is supposed to be "sanim.zip" and located in "system/media" folder

You're absolutely right. You don't have to rename or remove any existing files in the folder. Just place the zip in the media folder and rename sanim.zip. Good to go. Thanks for the info!

Boot animations must be placed in /system/media and the file must be named bootanimation.zip
Just copy/paste the bootanimation.zip to /system/media using ES File Explorer (make sure Root Explorer is enabled).

I rename the original to OGbootanimation.zip then I copy the new on into the folder. That way I can delete the experimental file and name the original back if the experimental file won't work. It saves a few steps.
Make sure you're moving the zip file and don't extract it or use CWM on it.
Hm, is it boot animation.zip or sanim.zip?
Have you tried searching the Seraphim thread?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I927 using xda premium
Like others have said, you just need to rename the zip to bootanimation.zip and place it in your system/media folder using ES File Explorer (what I use) or Root Explorer. Then reboot and wallah.
It's never not worked for me. I'm currently running Unofficial CM9, and I replaced the Cyanogen boot with the Galaxy Nexus ICS boot animation, to keep Android tasting Vanilla...
Make sure the permissions are rw-r--r--

make sure u have the correct kernal that allows bootanimation, another is to unzip it and rezip as store, there should not be any compression with a bootanimation.zip., if u want to upload it, i will test it.
