Change boot-logo?? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi members,
I know that there are ways to change the boot-animation, but I after I saw the complete Google Nexus boot up I liked It pretty much.
I already got the Nexus animation boot-up but I also want to replace the "Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100" logo for the Nexus "Google" logo.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

Just swap the boot logo png, it's in the same folder as the boot animation (system/media I THINK)

I don't quite understand you jje, theme section on XDA or do I need to find a theme section on my phone?

First one

bootanimation.zip
Of course youre phone needs to be rooted.
Then you take youre bootanimation, often "Bootanimation.zip"
Use for example "Root Explorer" app, that have superuser rights to
youre phone system. "R.E" is like "Windows Explorer" for rooted phones
When you use "R.E" to be able to copy and paste systemfiles, you need to
"Mount RW", Read-Write.
Copy the Bootanimation.zip, and paste it in youre phones filesystem,
/data/local/bootanimation.zip
A good indication youre in right folder, is that some "temp" file is also there.
Reboot phone, and voila!
Good luck man
PS!
A very good post is here

I appericate the help from you al!
Thank you
I will keep this post updated and tell you guys if it worked or not.

from my experience you have to use a non stock kernel as stock kernels dont allow you to change the boot animation .. I may be wrong?

I am already using a costum kernel as you need to have a rooted device to actually change the boot-logo.
Btw, it works like a charm.
Thanks for the help you guys.

Original Android boot animation.

I have been searching for two days for this, both here and elsewhere, so forgive me if it's been right under my nose and I failed to find it.
I am trying to find the stock Android boot animation that began with, I believe, Cupcake. That is, the Android logo in a sort of blue-hued metallic texture. I want this for my Droid. If anyone knows where I can find this, given Droidboots is ****ed, I'd be very thankful.
completely removing the "bootanimation.zip" will default you to the "stock" android boot animation
What are the chances that I would be looking for the exact same boot animation? I haven't had any luck either.

+1. Go into /system/media, at least that is where it is on the heroc, with a file manager, root explorer is a fine choice, and delete the file named bootanimation.zip. reboot and enjoy the classic goodness.

Yup this works.
Even works on Sense ROMs.
It must be built in default when no customized carrier one exists.
Where do I get a copy of the default / classic "Android" boot animation?
Can someone post it on here?

I made default-look bootanimation in UOT kitchen. Look for "Android original"
THANK YOU SO MUCH I WANNA BE YOUR SEXY SLAVE 4EVER! hrhnick
for custom roms it should be in /system/media if you cant find it there use root explorer's search function to find it
Worked in 2019...thanks!

Bro, Get root explorer app,If you go into /System/Media there should be a Bootanimation.zip file.
Check that there is also bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg. If they are present then delete the Bootanimation.zip and reboot your phone. U r Done
Hope this helps!
There is an app on market by Hellcatdroid the creator of Hellcat kernel which supports bootanimations. Download that and choose what you want. Or romtoolbox and choose whatever bootanimation you want

[Miui/CyanogenMod] New CM9 Bootanimation!!! Flashable Zip/Mtz for Miui Users

This is the new cm9 boot animation. Official version is out now
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-5Av_EVpyI&feature=player_embedded
Ok the miui version is a bit faster as i had to reduce the length of the animation because the miui boot animation is faster than CyanogenMod......
I take no credit for this i just edited it for Miui users.
Good news I have made a flashable zip..........
Installation
For CyanogenMod users flash the Cm9Bootanimation.zip in recovery
Reboot and enjoy
For miui users just apply the mtz in theme manager
Reboot and enjoy
Credit to sahibunlimited for making it awesome work and PurpleFries for his edited version which i used for the miui version.
And Akilldema for his smooth but small file size which i used for the flashable zip.
Make sure to thank him for his awesome work - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511501

Use Root Exlorer, press and hold the Zip and select Move.
Go to system/media and paste. then change the permission to rw-r--r-- by pressing and holding the zip file. Easy
And I must say, this animation looks wonderful.

Are you sure that you have a custom kernel? In any case, I advise you to backup the bootanimation file, not delete it.
You just need to add the .bak extension to the original file. For example: bootanimation.zip.bak or in your case samsung.qmg.bak
Copy the new file into system/media or data/local as has been indicated by the other users

I understand that, but when I place them into media folder and reboot the phone default android bootanimation shows up. I tried to change permission and no luck. Maybe it is just because I use CM10?
