Does anyone know how to make a boot animation for my WT19a???
Sent from my WT19a using xda premium
The bootanimazion is a zip file containing some pictures. It's located in /system/media/bootanimation.zip.
Create your own bootanimation.zip and replace the original. That's all
Remember to set permissions to 644 for the new bootanimation.zip
I do not seem to have that folder "system", I'm running Cymod though.

Boot Animation
First of all go to system>media>bootanimation.zip and send it to your comp
unzip the file and do the changes and rename it bootanimation.zip
now the original animation you can rename anything and it is necessary or it will mingle with your new one
now paste the new animation and reboot
Enjoy your new animation

1) .zip file musn't use compression
2) after you paste new bootanimation.zip file into /system/media, you must give it 644 permission (rw,r,r)

Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting here so hello to everyone!
I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5 after having iPhones for years and I haven't stopped using it since. I was looking into boot animations and I saw all the BIOS boot animations but realized that no one had created one for the Galaxy S5 yet. Because of that I made one myself specifically for the Samsung Galaxy S5 meaning that all the files are in the QMG format and not the typical bootanimation.zip style. Attached to this post are two zip archives containing the animation file. Both attachments are the same animation but one runs at 18FPS while the other runs at 22FPS. This way in-case your phone boots slower or faster than mine there will be time to completely finish the animation.
I also have it rendered at all different framerates from 5 to 60 so if you need it somewhere else let me know.
Let me know what you think as I plan on making a more unique animation in the future!
How to Install (Device Must be Rooted):
1.Download bootsamsung.qmg file to device
2. Go to system/media
3. Rename the existing bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsungOld.qmg or something else (do not delete)
4. Rename bootsamsungloop.qmg to bootsamsungloopOld.qmg or something else (carrier animation, can delete if do not want)
5. Place the bootsamsung.qmg file you downloaded into here
6. Change the permissions of the bootsamsung.qmg file to: Owner: read,write Group: read Others: read
7. Reboot your phone and see if it works!
Since I am a new user I can't put images or a video preview here due to them being external links.
Below in attachments along with the animation files there will also be another zip archive containing a GIF preview and two pictures.
***EDIT***
Also in the attached files you will find bootanimation.zip which is the animation files for phones that dont use the Samsung .QMG file format. Note that it is still at 1080x1920 in terms of resolution and will play at 18FPS until you modify the desc.txt
Thanks, PDrizzly
Can I have one in ".zip" format please? The GS5 ROM I am using (MOAR ROM on Sprint GS5) has custom bootanimation support and uses .zip files for bootanimation!

Thanks man looks pretty good but would be improved with more colour and some kind of animation other than text. Good stuff though, much better than carrier boot.

hi i would appreciate how you done it? tutorial on how to make bootanimation for s5 ..
cheers,

I am having trouble getting this to work on AllianceRom. The animation stops at the 12th picture and it just freezes there until the boot cycle completes. After applying the boot animation I can look into the zip archive and every png file from number 13 on is 0kb in size.
Just for some more information I have tried applying the boot animation by flashing via Rom Manager, using Rom Toolbox (Boot Animations), and by manually placing the bootanimation.zip in the system\media directory. When I manually place the zip file in (and adjust permissions), the boot screen is just black. Nothing shows up. Every other boot animation I have tried seems to work just fine. This is the only one giving me trouble.
Any advice?
Thank you.

Did not work for me
I am on Alliance t-mobile build 3 - i renamed my current bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg(stock) then i copied the bootsamsung.qmg from the 18fps into system/media. Changed the permissions and I still only get the stock alliance boot animation.

That worked perfectly. Didn't realize that Alliance had a bootanimation.zip file there. Never thought to look lol
Didn't work
I have been trying to tweak some things, but nothing changes! I decided to try simply renaming the bootsamsungloop.qmg with ES file explorer to see if this would work. Sure enough, Verizon still pops up on boot. I had safestrap installed, but wasn't using it, so I uninstalled that, and still nothing. It seems very odd. Any ideas?

S3 BOOT ANIMATION AND SOUND IN GALAXY Y
To apply follow steps :
1 in stock rom :
using a root browser, replace the two files *bootanimation* and *samsungani* in CustomBootAnimationFiles.zip in system/bin.
replace bootanimation.zip *not extract* in system/media.
for sound, replace poweron.ogg in poweron.ogg.zip in system/etc.
2 in custom rom :
just replace bootanimation.zip *not extract* in system/media.
for sound, replace poweron.ogg in poweron.ogg.zip in system/etc.
SAY THANKS PLEEEEASE....
bootloop result
In my young being bootloop, my ROM minirom_touchWiz
So I've been rooted on APE1 and have been tweaked everything from my status bar to my navigation keys, and I realized I hadn't changed my boot animation yet. So I went out and googled how to do it, and sure enough changing your boot animation is possible and pretty easy too. So here's what you need to do.
1. Download an alternative boot animation, I've used animations from here: http://androidbootanimation.com/category/samsung-qmg-boot-animations/
And of course the sweet boot animation from the Stang5Litre ROM:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224409429
2. Download a root browser, I personally use Root Browser from JRummy Apps.
3. Grant it root access and keep tapping the two dots (underneath which it says parent folder till you reach the root of your phone.
4. Click system, then click media.
5. Scroll till you find these files.
SPR_shutdown.qmg
SPR_bootsamsungloop.qmg
SPR_bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
shutdown.qmg
6. Move these files out of the system/media folder to your SD card if you're replacing both the shutdown and boot animation (I created a folder called boot animation in my SD card):
SPR_shutdown.qmg
SPR_bootsamsungloop.qmg
SPR_bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
shutdown.qmg
6b. Or move these files out of the system/media folder to your SD card if you're replacing just the boot animation (I created a folder called boot animation in my SD card):
SPR_bootsamsungloop.qmg
SPR_bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
7. Extract the boot animation you downloaded earlier and copy the files which are labeled like this this if you're replacing the boot animation and shutdown animation:
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
shutdown.qmg
Or like this if you're simply replacing the boot animation:
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
8. Paste them into the system/media folder.
9. Long press the files you copied, and click permissions.
10. Set the read as allowed for owner, group, and others. Set the write and execute as allowed for only the owner for all 3 files if you're replacing both the startup animation and the shutdown, or for two of the files if you're replacing only the startup.
11. Click ok.
12. Ensure all three or two files are there and have the right permissions.
13. Reboot, and you should see your new boot up and shutdown animation.
Credit goes to @stang5litre and @gadget! For the Stang5Litre boot animation, it's not my work.
Also the animations from: www.androidbootanimation.com are not mine and belong to their respective owners.
Hit Thanks if it helped and feel free to ask questions, and please don't quote the entire OP.
Since I've had my N970U rooted I've been trying to replace the Bootanimation but couldn't find it. I have no idea what qmg files are in /system/media but when I replaced a few times it made no difference to the bootanimation. I'm posting this because I couldn't find the location of it all across the internet. So if anyone is interested it's found in: /product/omc/ "Choose your Carrier"/res/media. That is the animation you want to replace.
The "shutdown.qmg" is not in the same folder for some reason. Shutdown is in /system/media. Sound is PowerOn.ogg in /system/media/audio/UI.
It seems like a lot of people don't care about the boot animations anymore but I'm not about to have a rooted phone with the stock animation even if I have to deal with the stock rom, lol
Boot Animation: /product/omc/ "Choose your Carrier"/res/media
Shutdown Animation: /system/media
Boot Animation Sound (PowerOn.ogg): /system/media/audio/UI
