As you are already on linux, download android kernel kitchen from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1659584
Then unpack the cm9 boot.img and in the ramdisk, copy logo.rle. Then, unpack cm10 kernel and replace the default logo.rle with the one you just copied(Cm9's bootanimation). Then repack CM10 kernel and flash it to your phone. If you need to edit cm9 boot animation, then convert the rle file of cm9 to png. Make the changes and again convert it back to rle and place it in the cm10 ramdisk. Everything can be done using the kernel kitchen.
Press thanks if I helped.

He just needs a boot animation, not the boot logo...
You can just make one by editing the images via adobe tool
And then converting it into a flashable zip...
No need to open the entire kernel ramdisk... Thats a too lengthy and complicated method

it's a boot animation that i made and i want someone to make it flashable
If you download a boot animation that is flashable, steal the zip file and change the bootanimation.zip to yours in the /system/media folder of the flashable zip file. Then rezip the flashable if you unzipped it and name it what you want.

^ that is what I suggested too... but erased my message because I downloaded a flashable zip and it was not what I was expecting.. didnt have the meta folder and system/media folder.
I may try another flashable bootup later.

i did this but it didn't work..... my kernel is bali 1.8.6 does the boot animation flash in this kernel
Back from vacation and at a computer...
Will not flash on a Gingerbread Rom.. Holy monster bootanimation.zip file size. Compress the images at all? I will upon request, but here is how you had it, but flashable,
Basketball slam dunk bootanimation FLASHABLE
Please steal this folder structure and use it in the future by just replacing the bootanimation.zip with another in the /system/media directory. Or follow the previous post link on how to make your own.

[Q] Found this boot animation, but I don't know if it's flashable

I opened the zip and I saw the files inside. But I don't know if it's flashable. I'm kind of a noob on such things. Anyone can see and make a flashable .zip file? It looks smoother than the stock one. Credits to janis605 for making it.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/rvzbzl
Just copy the bootanimation.zip file to /system/media
That? So simple? Can you try it yourself please? I didn't see any difference... xD
From the pictures I see in the bootanimation.zip, it's different from stock. So, moving it to system/media doesn't work. :/
You need a kernel that supports boot animations, works fine for me.
Hmmmm, I think speedmod doesn't support custom bootanimation. :/ Any way to turn it into a flashable .zip?
If the kernel you're using doesn't support custom boot animations, making it a flash able.zip won't change anything.
If you really want that boot animation you're going to have to flash a kernel which supports custom boot animations.

If your using a kernel that doesn't support boot animations a flashable zip via CWM wont work either.
There are other kernels that do support boot animations. Maybe give them a try. Might be surprised at how good they are.
Also you have to get rid of the default Samsung animations before the zip will work even with a kernel that supports them. There is a thread about what to delete.
Hope this helps.

[Q] LwW-WT19i: FXP115 CM9 will not boot after applying Dual Speaker Fix

Okay so I got the FXP115 CM9 to work
Second after playing around with the FXP115, I now went inside CWM to flash the the dual speaker fix .
Then rebooted the phone, now its getting stuck on the Cyanogen(Mod)9 boot animation screen...
Did the same thing for FXP116 and it never gets passed the CM9 boot animation screen... Dunno whats going on after applying the speaker fix
the flasheable zip file is primary intended to cm 7.2 not cm 9 so you actually have to change the files provided on the op on the zipped rom before flashing it
oh i see... i just thought it would work now since the member who posted the attachment was able to fix it for CM9 speakerfix-by-someguyfromhell.zip
thank you sir, i'll try it out!
welcome anything else i'll be online a while.
I have CM7.2 and it worked for me.
Sent from my WT19i using xda premium
okay so this time i tried combining the files. the method i tried is extracting out the files from the dual speaker fix.
dragged the 2 folders META-INF & System to the CM9FXP116 zip. after combining i flashed it again in CWM, still stuck at the CM9 boot animation screen..
is there a special way of combining the files to make it work on CM9?
Well for cm9 you have to download the rar file from 1st post and then replace the files on the flasheable zip rom with the ones on the rar file.
That should do the trick

ONLY combine the system folder from the dual stereo fix, NOT the meta-inf folder.
the meta-inf contain flash script. if u overwrite the meta-inf folder in fxp116 with the meta-inf folder from dual stereo fix, the flash script would also be overwritten, thus the rom wont be properly flashed.
thank you sir, finally got it to work
i guess the only thing missing now is xLoud

Rogers boot logo

Hey guys, is there a way to remove the rogers logo on bootanimation, i'm rooted ics and i tried the bootanimation.zip( ex.Nexus7...etc) with root explorer,changed permission, but it's not working,thanks
You'll need a custom kernel that supports bootanimation.zip
Hotwire's oc r2 should do you up nicely.

Ok, but it's not working, maybe i still a Rom for the Rogers GNote to be able to make it work..
Samsung is using .qmg files for bootanimation, Samsung themes are created using the Samsung Theme Designer application. When the designer exports a theme, QMG files (originally .PNG files) are compiled and packaged into an SMT file along with an XML file that specifies where the QMG files are displayed in the theme.
This is a pretty old thread, has there been any progress on it?
I'm running ICS 4.04 with the R2 H0tw1r3 kernel and it doesn't seem to support boot animations.
I've tried a couple fixes like flashing bootanimation4u.zip, placing boot animation files in the appropriate directories and changing permissions etc.
The best I've been able to get is no boot animation, even that took a few tries.

[Q]Problem with editing ramdisk

Hi
I have unpacked KXP kernel with TWRP,and I wanted to put TWRP in Lupus JB kernel.
Recovery is in "ramdisk-recovery.cpio" file,but that recovery has one problem,it is set to 400x848 resolution...
So I wanted to change it,but I can't do anything with that archive,opened it in archive manager,extracted ui.xml file(that's file with resolution) changed resolution in it to MDPI,and I tried to put it back again in opened "ramdisk-recovery" but archive manager always says that the file is only for read.
Please someone help me,I really want TWRP in my kernel.
The "ramdisk-recovery" is attached.
I packed it to rar,because I can't upload files with .cpio extension to attachments.
Thanks

I remember that the screen resolution is set in twrp before compiling the ramdisk, so I am not sure it can be edited afterwards. Maybe Mihahn can help you because he compiled twrp for his mdpi device, but as I recall he couldn't figure out how to pack it into the kernel.

Yes, until now I couldn't figure out how to pack it into a kernel or how to boot the rom
Could you help me with just changing the ui.xml?(I want only to change resolution,because this TWRP is just too big)

I unpacked the archive on my other PC with Windows Vista using 7zip, ubuntu didn't work. I have the ui.xml and the whole folder, do you want it?
And which resolution do you want? 320x480?
Maybe this could help you
Yeah,I just want 320x480 resolution in ui.xml.
I also extracted it,and changed it,but I can't pack it to ramdisk-recovery.cpio again.
Can you put modified ui.xml into the ramdisk-recovery and send that to me?
Thanks

Sorry, my Ubuntu won't work and I have to try to fix this. But if you can unpack everything that you have the whole ramdisk-recovery.cpio unpacked you could search for a tool how to pack it again, or is the error when you build it again?
I tried to pack it,but everytime when I pack it using command,it's small[it's 1,1 mb(original ramdisk-recovery was 4,4 mb)] and also it's adding file called "directory.cpio" to packed ramdisk-recovery.cpio.
can't you just take the recovery.cpio out of mihahn's build and put it into CSs ramdisk?
Ok,I'll try it again.
Lupus kennel "Devs r working on it, So don't mess up with Ram disk and get into loop "
Okay,good to know.
I especially want to put this TWRP in Paranoid kernel.
