Im having trouble getting a custom bootscreen I made working and Im wondering if anyone can help me. Im on a Rooted S5, and I have busybox and Clockwork Mod Recovery installed, aswell as the clockwork bootanimation enabler installed. However, when I put my bootanimation.zip file in my system/media folder (permissions are changed to Rw- r-- r-- aswell) the animation still doesnt play. When I restart my phone, its just a black screen and then loads to my lock screen. Can anyone tell me if im doing anything wrong or if there is anything in my zipfile thats wrong? Any help would be much obliged. This is my animation here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dm4464ihudzpbxl/bootanimation.zip?dl=0

Ok, so here's my problem: I just downloaded the Galaxy S Pulsar bootanimation for my phone here and I can't seem to get it to work. My phone would flash the Vibrant screen, stay black (as if the bootanimation is still playing) and then load up android.
So far, I did as the thread instructed and originally placed the bootanimation.zip inside system/media. I currently have the permissions set to rw-r--r-- but nothing's happening. I even just tried to move it to data/local with the same permissions and it still doesn't work. Could anyone give me some advice on this or tell if I'm doing this wrong? Thx in advance.
Hi All,
I had flashed the bootanimation from the Nexus Prime on my X10i and it was working fine. But now I am not able to change the bootanimation by any means and am stuck with the Nexus boot animation.
I have tried flashing the stock bootanimation.zip through xrecovery, as well as tried replacing the file manually, but once i reboot, the phone reverts to the old boot animation.
How can i chnage by boot animation now???

Wrong section, Post your questions in Q & A section
Anyways go to /data/local & delete bootanimation.zip if there's any, then go to /system/media & delete bootanimation.zip if there's any, Then flash the new boot animation that you want
Did I mention wrong section?
Use root explorer or any file manager which can access root files, manually delete the bootanimation from systems/media and replace it with your file.

Ok, so there this copy of the old bootanimation.zip in /data/local - deleting that copy did the trick for me. Thanks!
..with the bootanimation, yes again...
So, I installed a costum ROM, whit was making big problems for me, changed it, but that sucker bootanimation still there. Deleted from the system/media folder the bootanimation.zip file, replaced the BOOTSAMSUNG and BOOTSAMSUNGLOOP.QMG files....now, i get an animation, but on the startup screen that ugly image still appears...
is there any flashable apk file whic will change back the fon to its stock animation or i can explode this phone?

find the bootanimation.zip (often located in System/media or in Data/local) and erase it. I usually do this, or, better, go back to samsung stock rom, I advice you XXKI3, is a full rom and it has a pit file. You shouldn t have problem. bye
Are you talking about the bootscreen BEFORE the bootanimation, by any chance?
If so, that's my cue
Grab this: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.hellcat.droiddev.sgs2bootlogo
and go wild on changing it back to w/e you want.
If you grab the file "param.lfs" from a stock ROM update .tar, you can also revert to the original Sammy screen.
If this WASN'T your issue - just silently ignore me
I would have posted this to the Neutrino rom development thread but I don't have enough post.
I have Neutrino v2.91 flashed and I have noticed that it doesn't have the neutrino boot animation. I checked the system\media folder and the bootanimation.zip is there. I thought maybe it was corrupt so I changed its name and installed another custom bootanimation.zip. That didn't work either. I flashed the boot.img from the Neutrino v2.91 zip file and that didn't fix it. I did all the wipes, permission fixes, and resets. Nothing fixed it.
I flashed AOKP and paranoid android over the weekend to test them out and their bootanimations worked fine. The neutrino bootanimation didn't work before or after that (probably because I restored a backup I had made before I flashed AOKP and paranoid android).
The bootanimation isn't going to keep me from using this rom because it is awesome but it would be nice to fix this problem.
I hope somebody has an idea on how to fix this.
Try installing the animation ZIP as /data/local/bootanimation.zip. If that happens to work, check permissions for /system/media as well as the ZIP inside it.
I copied the bootanimation.zip to data\local and it still didn't work. I set the permissions to rwx rwx rwx for the system\media folder and that didn't work either. I saw somebody stated that the boost script might remove the bootanimation. I don't know what the boost script would do to cause that. When i boot the phone the initial bootloader graphic is displayed and it says unlocked and then it vibrates and the homescreen appears. Thanks for the suggestions.
I figured it out. I saw that their was a discrepancy between the recovery system\bin and the original neutrino system\bin and I found a file called boot-dmesg. That reminded me that I had installed live-dmesg lite from the play store and then uninstalled it. I reinstalled live-dmesg lite from the play store and saw it had an uninstall option which I didn't use last time just the manage applications feature in settings. I had to use live-dmesg lite to installe the live-dmesg boot animation since the uninstall option was grayed out. I then used the uninstall option and now I have access to my bootanimation once again.
