I made a custom boot animation for my oppo a5s
I mounted /system and copied my custom boot animation using terminal ( note that I gave it su permissions to do this)
But
This way didn't work
It said : etc/fstab no such a file or a directory
I tried to copy it manually, it worked and after my dad took my phone and return it again after work , I found that the boot animation got to its stock state again ( the original one)
So I decided to do this again , but this time , there is a BIG ULTRA FRICKING PROBLEM
while copying, it tooooook a looong time and this is unusual
I stopped it and found that the original boot animation is 0kb ?!
I tried to remount the /system directory and it said it is read only
AND NOW THE BOOT ANIMATION FILE IS CORRUPTED
WHAT SHOULD I DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

OK ...
Samsung Fascinate SCH-i500
Rooted via SuperOneClick
Current ROM I am test driving on my phone is PWGB beta version (latest v 10/2011)
red versionCWM and verified I have busybox install.
installed Astro File Manager & Dual File Manager XT & Terminal Emulator.
MY NEED FOR ANSWERS:
I have a new bootanimation.zip stored on my SD card Id like to try out.
current ROM uses bootanimation file that is located in [/system/media/bootanimation.zip]....
the [/system] folder did not have the permissions that would allow me to move the current bootanimation zip and insert my new bootanimation zip.
Looks like the /system folder permissions were set at 0755 showing via "terminal emulator"
looks like I was successfull at changing the folder permissions to 0777 via
su[ENTER]mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system[ENTER]
chmod 0777 /system[ENTER]
but in order to get my new bootanin.. zip to transfer over to new location from my sdcard, went to move it with the [-i] option and TE displays [failled -Cross -linked Device] error message....
I am at a loss at this point to get the project done...
YES I AM A NOOB... I HAVE LEARNED ALOT FROM YOU GUYS... THANKS IN ADVANCE for your answers...,
This is what i do when i want to change my boot animation.
First of all, go to the market and install "Root Explorer".
Now put the new bootanimation.zip on your SD card. (I personally use DropBox to download it and store it on my SD card).
Go into Root Explorer, and into the /system/media/ folder and click the little "Mount R/W" button at the top of the app (this changes the permissions, allowing you to copy/move and add files to the system partition), and change the current bootanimation.zip to bootanimationold.zip (simple way of backing it up, in case anything goes wrong, or you simply wanna switch back).
Now go to your SD card (still in root explorer) and copy the new bootanimation.zip, go back into the /system/media/ folder and simply paste it.
Click on the new bootanimation.zip and change the permissions to
User: X X -
Group: X - -
Others: X - -
(Where "X" is permission granted, and "-" is no permission)
Press Ok, and click the "Mount R/O" button in the top of the app, and exit Root Explorer. All done.
Now reboot your device and see the glorious new bootanimation
PS: If there is anything wrong with the bootanimation.zip, it will simply show a black screen after the initial splash screen. So simply wait, and let your device boot like normal.
did not work...
I managed to rename the old boot animation zip and I managed to place the new bootanimation.zip into the same folder.... /system/media/bootani.....
I rebooted the phone but still the OLD boot anima remains and active. the NEW bootanimation file is indeed there but the phone does not act like it.
I went to recovery and cleared cache and dalvik and reboot....nada still no new boot animation.
I took on this small project of changing my boot animation because it looked to be so simple. I got the new boot animation file from a thread of a collection of boot animations and the instructions said to just place on SDcard and install via CWM....needless to say that did not work, so the journey went to where I am now....
Hi Guyz....Recently I flashed A Kernal By Mb-14 on my Galaxy Ace Plus.....It Changed my Boot Logo.....i Want my Original Bootlogo back.....plzzz Help Me Soon...
I believe a lot of Samsung devices store the bootlogo in paramfs, but I don't own your device so I can't say for sure which partition its in. You'd be best to ask in your device forum

Hi, you can change it back to the original boot animation by following the instructions given. But 1st, you have to make sure your phone is rooted and you should download an application called Root Explorer from the play store and download the Boot Animation by clicking here.
1.Connect your phone to your computer via USB.
2.Copy the "Sammsung Generic Boot Animation.zip" file that you want to install, to your SD card.
3.Please be sure it's rename to "bootanimation.zip"
4.Unmount USB storage and launch the root explorer on your phone.
5.Browse to /system/media using a file manager using Root Explorer
6.Browse to the location on the SD card where you copied the new "bootanimation.zip" and copy paste it to /system/media.
7.You should now have the new boot animation successfully installed on your device. Simply restart it and you should see it running upon boot!
Tell me if it worked And have a nice day!!
it didn't worked brother.....n i dont mean boot animation i mean boot splash image before the boot animation....
I've tried to change the boot animation on my android phone running sc7731g chipset, android 5.1 and it is rooted and usb debugging is not enabled before this accident.I can't open or access the android recovery menu,it's just spreadrum factory test and it's in chinese language
I copy and pasted the boot animation file using ES file explorer to system>media folder and there's already an bootanimation.zip there and i renamed it to bootanimation.zip.bak, then i pasted the bootanimation.zip file that i copied there and changed its permissions to:
read write execute
owner check check check
group check
other check
then i rebooted it.., after that i doesn't boot completely anymore it just freezes during boot
Is there any way i can fix this without flashing anything?
even adb and fastboot doesn't work it just says device unauthorized
and please confirm dialog box on your device
i really need help.,I've been researching for a week now...
Hi.I was trying to change bootanimation on my android without root.So I had searched Google and tried one method which was "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local" .By running that command through adb I got Permission denied Error.I tried another one.I first flashed twrp and through that I changed permission to read write execute.When I was in twrp mode I connected to my computer and changed bootanimation by removing the old bootanimation and add new bootanimation by running above adb command.When I restarted new bootanimation was not loaded even though I changed permission to rw-r-r but it was loading stock bootanimation.I had a doubt whether new bootanimation is applied or not.So when my phone was in normal mode I connected to my computer and through adb I run this command "adb pull bootanimation.zip C:".This command created a backup of my bootanimation to my computer.When I viewed the backed up bootanimation file it was new bootanimation file.But why is not getting applied or loaded on booting of phone?

Where is the file, How you deleted. Did you root the note 10 ?
The file is located in system/bin/bootanimation.
Yes I am rooted it should be within your system/bin
How I deleted I tried to change my boot animation. I deleted that important system file in the wrong directory instead of media. With out that bin file I won't be able to run no custom boot animation.
Are you on Android 10?
Can you copy your bootanimation file in the system/bin location and upload it here.
