The thread I got the idea from can be found here: Credit goes to Gla'DOS for the scribble boot animation.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=48024033
I'm not sure if 2.1 builds support bootanimation.zip files so I extracted the png's, renamed them, edited the .cfg file and it works flawlessly on my phone.
In the provided zip is the shutdown.png files, the .cfg file and a readme file. The readme file explains how I did it so everyone can do it.
This is a shutdown animation only.
Here is the zip that contains everything, enjoy!

So basically you converted the stuff from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8813403&postcount=2
To make a shutdown image?
That's correct. I was going to mention your name in the OP but I wasn't sure if you were the original creator of the scribble animation, my apologies if you were.

great,i was wondering how to extract boot animations. i rly like the the one with the android logo and a green flash type of thing moving in the back ground.
Yeah its very easy to do. I was searching other forums last night and have a whole bunch of bootanimation.zip files I'm going to convert. I'll post them when I'm done.
No boot video at all...
Is it possible to get rid of the animation altogether and display the Android equivalent of a POST screen, so we can see things getting loaded/activated as it boots?
Only problem with that is the BOOT animation's are not png files rather than qmg files and those are proprietary samsung files I believe. I've read a couple different threads on different boards and it looks like editing qmg files proves to be very difficult.
If you look in the Vibrant Bible sticky on the Development section of Samsung Vibrant, toward the bottom of the OP is the link for the custom boot animation. It's a Think Tank... no one has fully figured it out but it's well on its way to being cracked I'm sure.
Shutdown files are simply PNG files renamed to 'shutdown_##' placed in a folder named shutdown with a cfg file telling it how many frames to run.
Boot animation files they've figured you can create an uncompressed .zip file, place it in the system/media folder and a desc.txt file telling it resolution and how to run.

it won't be as appealing if it loops... and looping was giving me issues such as the android just disappearing and a black screen staying on till boot. anyone wanna edit the images and add more animations? Maybe a CRT turn off animation similar to the portal boot animation, and then put a text saying Android or something?

i tried to make it loop as well and couldnt figure it out. as far as i understand the part1 folder is the one that loops. i copied the images from part0 to part1 and renamed them in sequential order and got nothing. maybe one of the pros on here could help us out?

you want the original bootanimation.zip file that is supposed to loop? its f*cked since the black screen keeps coming on instead of a loop :S this is actually a evo boot animation tweaked for our device (evo takes sh!t long to boot)
I can edit the images but IDK how to do a crt animation on photoshop using different images
Will this work on myt4g with S=off and stock everything?
Yep it should
Rooted/OC'd/De-bloated
For the boot animation loop you have to edit the text file that is for screen size frame rate and how many times to play each folder.

System/customize/resource
Drop it in there and make sure it is named TMOUS_bootanimation and you will be all set
Oh I think there is an audio file for the annoying ass TMO jingle. Kill that too.

No problem I HATE that damn boot noise so I looked into this yesterday.
What is the best way to get in there and change the files around? I downloaded Android Commander on to my computer and even though it lets me downloads files to my PC, it won't let me do anything to the android system files because it says I need root, even though I do in fact have root.

ok i am able to change the boot animation and got rid of the t mobile jingle. now i want to add my own audio file during the boot animation. what do i need to name the file to work properly. i named it just like the t mobile jingle sound but that didnt work. any help would be greatly appreciated
The T-Jingle is just a ringtone, the bootup sound is named ruby_something, I don't remember what exactly off the top of my head, but it is a .wav file.
If I am going to put my own boot animation in here, can I just find a GIF of the appropriate dimensions and rename it .zip, or do I have to take each frame and convert it to a .png and put it in a zip file the same way that the default boot animation is?

no actually T-Jingle is the sound that was used on the original boot animation. as soon as i got rid of it that jingle did not sound when i loaded up the boot animation. i know the .wav file you speak of though. but if that was the boot animation sound why wouldn't it sound now with my new boot animation. there has to be some way to associate the new boot animation with what ever sound file when the phone boots up. as far as creating your own boot animation there are a lot of tutorials on this site. within the boot animation zip file there is a text file that basically tells the screen resolution and how as well as the frame rate and how the file should work. you should dl any boot animation and look at the desc.txt file. that will give you a little of an idea of how it all works.

Weird, on my phone T-Jingle.ogg is just a 3 second clip of the T-Mobile jingle ringtone sound, the one that plays on my phone at startup was ruby_something.wav, which is much longer and has the sort of rocket blast sound at the beginning and then a prolonged T-Mobile jingle.

I will open up the default boot animation and see what's doing. It is kind of confusing though because in the zip file is all of the .png files for the animation, but then there is another .zip file that has the exact same thing in it.

they both might be involved with the boot animation but as soon as i removed the t-jungle.ogg there was no sound at all when the boot animation. i will try messing with the other sound and see what happend

not quite sure about that. i just know that i was able to take a boot animation from another phone and edit the desc.txt file to the proper screen resolution to get it to work. like i had mentioned if you do a search on the site there are quite a few tutorials on how to create the boot animations. good luck

answered above in your quote
sorry for bringing up a fairly old thread, but this is exactly what i was looking for.
so i was able to change back to the stock boot animation as OP said, but I DO want the original sound to it, right now there is no sound. what is the file called and where is it located? i found the file in a t-mobile bloater zip from another thread, just no idea where it goes and what it should be called.

Im also looking for the answer, where does the sound file go?
Did any of you read anything I posted? The wav file I posted is the default boot sound.

Ithink you quickly answered without knowing what i and last poster asked, where in the boot animation zip does the sound file go, the link you gave me has the sound file seperate from the bootanimation zip.
I read every post in this thread and my question is not answered.

Did you even look at the link I posted in your thread? If you did, then you wouldn't be looking to put the sound file in the bootanimation, but instead put it in the required folder, that's why I linked to a tutorial, it is there for a reason.
Hi, I've followed the instructions from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321360
Not only do I not get my boot and down animations to not work, now they are showing different text from the original Mean ROM animations that I backed up, now the say "Androi"d on booting and "Powering Down", I haven't seen this is any of my searching...
I've checked the default.xml file and they point to the regular System/Customize/Resource folders.
Zips work in the boot animation factory.
My png files are 360x640 and the desc files are listed as 720x1080 (all portrait files) including blank space at the end

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that zip is 258mb
for a bootani wtf whats in there???
lol thanks for checking...I got about 40 seconds of 360x640 frames at 30fps. When I extracted frames from a GIF for the down animation, the files were small. but when I extracted frames from a downloaded youtube clip, they all became bitmap images and exploded in size.
try this
Thanks Dased14 so I downloaded the bootanimation.zip file
I was curious about the format and so I booted into HBoot->TWRP recovery and installed that, it said successful however there was no change to the boot/down animation.
Then I recalled some people putting the bootanimation.zip file in their System\Media\ folder (likely for other devices) but I did it anyways and confirmed permissions were correct: rw-,r--,r--
The interesting change this time is there was no "Android" text on boot and "Powering Down" on down...just black screen
What do you think I can try next...
Or did I fail loading the bootanimation.zip file to the device. here's some supporting info I guess.

and not to burst you bubble but that boot anim is massive and i mean massive... I just made on recently and slimmed it down to 125mb which is huge and 258mb is extremely large your sucking up your system partition space and memory.
Just made this one like 5 days ago best bet is to remove every other image... I batched it out in ps to change the names to single digitis with an action and then use batch to remove the odd numbers... Thats what I did but your best bet is probably to just remove them by hand every odd image remove it out... Originally this boot animation was 540mb and i got it down to 120 and I did that through winoptpng and removing images... Remember dont opt regular black images b/c they'll index... Enjoy that tid bit of information..
I slimmed it down to 21mb for him

yup total file from dased14 was 40MB for both files vs my 258MB + 3MB...still scratching my head here.
Good tip though.
I re-installed in custom recovery and cleared cache. Default Android text is on boot animation. Shut down is black screen only.
Might be a meanrom thing you can try unzipping the rom chamging out the two zips and dirty flash the rom

This tool helped me get my last boot animation to work. Maybe it will do the trick for you.
Woohoo! dirty copy into System/Customize/Resource worked! I also have a feeling I may have borked a setting or the fact that I created a .old file might have messed things up.
Updated to the new MeanBean ROM and then proceeded with copying the files over and both files worked great! Thanks for slimming down the files!
