[WT19a/WT19i] custom bootanimation - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Does anyone know how to make a boot animation for my WT19a???

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)

[Q] boot animation

is it possible to pull a boot animation from another Rom? if so how do i do it?
Yes you can do it. I won't get too in depth cause there are several threads explaining how, but copy whatever bootanimation you want to SD card first. Then depending on what ROM you have the bootanimation could either be in /data/local, /system/media, or in stock ROM i believe /system/customize/resource. Rename the stock bootanimation to bootanimation.zip.bak in case you want to revert then copy your new bootanimation to same folder and make sure the filename is bootanimation.zip and the permissions match what the previous one was which is (rw-r--r--). Reboot and your done. Same thing can be done with the downanimation also.
Thanks found an animation from another ROM I liked and wanted to put it on ROM I like using

This bootanimation is something another file.
Bootanimation.zip is located system/media, data/local etc...depends what rom you are using. Bin folder is something another.
EDIT:editing bootanimation you can use "absolute system"toolbox....for Neo you must change resolution 854x480

Stock Boot Animation

I need help with restoring the stock Galaxy S2 boot animation.
This was what happened. I installed jrummy's Root Tools.
In my eagerness, I replaced the original boot animation without backing up!
Now when I want to undo the changes that has been done, many an online search suggested going to system/media and removing bootanimation.zip so that bootsamsung and bootsamsungloop can work their magic...
And here is where the problem is, bootanimation.zip is nowhere to be found!
I wonder if Root Tools had totally overwritten bootsamsung and bootsamsungloop.
All I want is to get back the original bootanimation sequence.
Can anyone help with this? TIA!!!
Here is the original bootanimation
Just unzip the attached zip file and copy and paste the attached bootsamsung.qmp and bootsamsungloop.qmg to system/media and you are done..
BTW is your poweron sound intact??
Thanks bro! The poweron sound is still present.
I have resolved the problem. Apparently, I have been going at it wrongly.
I had been using Astro as file manager but it didn't allow me to access data/local where bootanimations.zip was.
After I switched to RootExplorer and removed the offending file, voila!

How to set permissions??
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app
Use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer.
use explorer like 'root explorer' and set the permissions from there. (don't forget to press mount r/w button before changing the permission)
Atrix 4G, CM7 based TopSmarts 1.3 rom, Faux123 1ghz kernel.
If I m helpful dont hesitate to thank me.

No question is stupid
The android bootanimation is a set of png files in one or more folders and a text file called desc.txt all together inside a zip file.
If you can get the separate frames from a animated gif file, then those can be converted into png images and made as a bootanimation
Take a look at the guide here for more info on the bootanimation zip

You mentioned that we must move the bootanimation to system/media but you must also mention that after doing that we must change the bootanimation permission to 0644 or rw-r--r-- or else it won't show any bootanimation....
Press THANKS if I helped,
