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

does some one succeded to change boot animation ?
Yes, i found a nice guide somewhere in a thread in this forums. Sry, but can't remember where, maybe you can find it by using the search ;-) .
the problem is that zip file dont work for sga
The tutorial i folled, worked by moving and copying some files in the filesystem (root needed)...
I'll search it tomorrow if you/no one else finds a link to the guide.

hello guys i want to share how to change your bootanimation zip to custom animation,
im currently still using froyo, so if you use custom rom the steps might be different,
but should work for GBKPE too,
i download the bootanimation files from this thread
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905538
here's the steps :
things u need :
-ROOTED ACE
-ROOT Explorer installed or similiar app
-rename the animation you download to "bootanimation.zip"
-paste the bootanimation.zip you downloaded into your sdcard,anywhere is fine
-use root explorer open the system/bin
-look for the "samsungloop" file, move it to your sdcard first, just in case, you can either move it or copy it again to another place, (in my case, i copy it into system/ and another to my sdcard)
-go to system/bin ,look for "bootanimation", and rename it to "samsungloop", if you use ROOT explorer, don't forget to change the previlege first, change R/W permission first to R/O,,,(the bootanimation is not the file where you rename your animation you downloaded to be bootanimation.zip)
-put the "bootanimation.zip" (the file you downloaded and rename it's names) to
system/media
-in system/media, there are 2 files if i'm not mistaken, bot of the files are with the extension .qmq, just rename it with root explorer to .qm extension file
-reboot your galaxy ACE
-done
if you follow my steps well, you should see your animation after reboot, if it's just a blank screen, then you do some mistakes in the steps,
feel free to ask if you still don't understand , sory for my bad english though

so i found these cool bootanimations (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974773) and wanted to put them on my neo.
according to the guy who made them i have to rename it and push it here---> /data/local folder but there isnt the boot animation. i found i file called bootanimation here ---> /system/bin
so my question can i just push it into the bin folder? or is there an other way?

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

Wow, that might be the world's most boring animation, but it's still cool to have, so thank you!
Has anybody made the other boot animation with the triangles from Jelly Bean yet? Just watched the video on YouTube about it. Much much better animation!

I did this:
rename to bootanimation.zip
place on your sdcard,
move to /system/media
set permissions to rw--r--r
reboot
Nothing happened. Same old boot screen. Am I supposed to unzip the bootanimation.zip file?

What did you use to move to the /system/media folder?
Is your file system mounted as writable?

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.

Hi. I just tried that and it didn't work either. Just moving the bootanimation.zip to the \system\media is all I need to do (besides setting the permissions)? There is no other bootanimation.zip file in the media folder. How does the phone know to use the bootanimation.zip file when booting? Thanks.
Guess this will not work on stock OCS.
Does anyone have a bootanimation that is in the default Samsung format

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--
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)

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....
