You can extract it from the 1.1 zip file if you want it back.
/system/media/bootanimation.zip
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Just as Alta1r said... but remember to backup the current one you have (rename to bootanimationback.zip or whatever) before you put in a new one... because it will overwrite it if has same name "bootanimation.zip".
Alta1r & cyberboob ,thanks

I also want to change my boot animation back to the stock sgs2, I tried putting the qmg files in system/media and removing the boot animation.unicorn file, but that didn't work. did you do it manually? Or does anyone know how to on this rom?
you need to push the zip file "bootanimation.zip" into /system/media.
You need to do it with some file explorer like 'Root Explorer' when you are on /system remember set the press the button R/W on the top to give the permissions for writing on this folder
Yep, done all that, but unfortunately the rom doesn't read the stock .qmg files so ended up making a bootanimation.zip from scratch. Now just to get the audio running... I have the PowerOn.ogg file, does anyone know where to put it? Doesn't seem to work in usual system/etc folder

Power on is system etc
QMG files usually default if no bootanimation.zip in the media folder .

I've successfully changed the bootanimation back to the original stock one by replacing the zip file into system/media, but even i put the Power on.wav into the system/etc, still i've got no sound ...
How can i solve it?!
(Using remix pro 1.1)
Thanks!
Same issue only with v1.4
I have resurrection remix ICS 1.4 and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the audio working for my boot animations. It seems there may be plenty of others who would like an answer to this question. Getting bootanimations to work is no problem but the audio seems to be a mystery.

with the RES REMIX PRO 1.1 version, have you tried converting the .wav to .ogg format then putting it in system/etc?
Try either PowerOn.ogg/wav/mp3 or Android_audio.ogg/wav/mp3 and see how you go.
the best so far for me. excellent bat3 life. but my dcim folder creates thumbnails of almost 1GB and occupies my space. what can i do to stop this
boot animation sound
I have tried for 3days 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. 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 Resurrection remix 1.4 with kernel that comes with (cm9). I have also tried thoravukk kernel and nothing.What should I do?

my guess would be a particular app, probably an mp3 downloader or something that has adds. take a look at the clippings and see if you recognize them from somewhere. find out what app is doing it and shut it down (clear data and force close) in applications manager, and delete the pics. or just delete the app/ find a similar one or pay for the add free version if there is one and see how you go

This contains a qmg file. If i rename the zip to bootanimation.zip it should work?
In case you were still waiting for a reply, no it should not work. A qmg file is a compressed video file using some proprietary format that gets played. Bootanimation.zips contain a series of images that are linked together to create an animation.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

If you move the samsungalaxy.zip file (unless that's just a flashable zip), make sure you rename it to bootanimation.zip
All it does when you move it is replace the existing one.

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?

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 your file system is mounted as writable. I used ES File Explorer and did all the steps, and it didn't work. So I checked the ES settings and it wasn't "Mounted as writable". Once I fixed that, and did the exact same steps, it worked. The animation looks great.

What rom are you on? Custom boot animation may not be supported.
Is your current boot animation the android logo? There was no other bootanimation.zip in the folder for me, until I placed the renamed JB one.
here's my complete list of steps, that produced the desired results for me on Black*STAR IV ics rom:
*dl file to PC, renamed to bootanimation.zip placed in dropbox
*extracted to external sd card from dropbox app on phone
*moved to /system/media/ folder with ES file explorer (with mounted as writable, and all root options enabled)
*set permissions using Rom Toolbox's root browser
*rebooted phone and enjoyed animation
Mine does samsung logo samsung logo, android logo, then booted up.
Permissions set in ROM toolbox. Bootanimation.zip.
Must be my ROM's animation, (the android letters) needs removed?
Permisions is RW-R--R--
hi everyone .....today I wanted to change my bootanimation so went to the system/media to find stock bootamimation to my surprise there was no file named bootamimation.zip .......I'm running ics passion with kiss kernel v8.2 ....I'm dont have any problem rebooting .....plz help me out .
Not sure why it is not there but if you want to change your boot animation you can drop the new one in /data/local and it will show up on your next boot, leaving you original (which should be in but isn't for some reason) in /system/media.
Just drop the new one here /data/local and set your permissions and you will be good to go.
thanx for ur reply ....is it safe to do in this way? .......if so then how can I get back my stock bootamimation ?

I'm running ICZen, which is based on AOKP and had discovered the same thing. However if you find a bootanimation.zip that you like, download it and place it in system/media. Although there is no stock boot animation there, after a reboot the new boot animation should appear. For some reason, ICS roms store the boot animation away in another location. Thus, just like Woods method, the custom boot animation you install will not overwrite the stock one. Just delete (or move it [to a new directory like your SD card]) the custom boot animation you installed and bam! You'll have the stock one back.

Yes it is safe to do it that way. You can inter-changed bootanimations at will when you put them in /data/local. In fact sometimes, I will drop one in my wife's phone's /data/local just to mess with her. She is pretty savvy, so it doesn't take long for her to figure it our and go in there and delete it.
That is the beauty of dropping it in /data/local, it does nothing to your stock one. If you don't like the one you put in /data/local, then just deleted it or move it on your SD card for later use and your oringinal BA is still in tact.

Not sure if dropping it in /system/media is a good thing b/c it might throw an error at some point either on bootup or when you decide that you want to change it down the road. I have looked over the Zen releases and never found where it was kept, but then again, I always have dropped mine in /data/local.
Double post.

Yes, that's correct. Or you can also just move it to your SD card and that will also work. As long as you remove the custom boot animation from the system/media directory it will return to the stock boot.
