Created a new boot animation today while playing around and thought I would share. It is the reverse of the default shutdown animation. Just put it in /system/media with root.root ownership and rw-r--r-- permissions. If your ROM supports custom boot animations, it should show up nicely when you boot.

Anyone know how to enable boot animation sounds? I tried placing android_audio.mp3 in /data/local and /system/media but neither work.
I can't find any information on this anywhere. I think it has something to do with the bootanimation binary. I tried some other ones and set the permissions but I couldn't get them to work at all. It wouldn't even play the animation.
I think the boot animation sounds worked in the MCR Desire port if you enabled it in the kitchen but I don't know how to get it to work on other roms. Any ideas?
I've been trying to change the boot animation on my stock 2.2 captivate rooted and can't find the original one anywhere, i have looked in: system/media, data/local, res, and anywhere else it might seem that a boot animation would be located, you guys have any ideas?
Bootanimation.zip has to be enabled in the kernel. If it is already just put the zip in /system/media and it will over ride the stock S.
If you aren't running a kernel that supports bootanimation.zip then you can't change the animation.
But the stock animation is also in /system/media
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
I know we can change the boot animation, but what about for shutdown animation?
I'm also curious if anyone has successfully changed the boot logo.
I've downloaded ROM Tools but these options are not available (the boot logo is there but not for the note)
no one?

I've done
I changed bootanimation and sound exactly as was descibed for SGS2. It works
You can change shutdown animation by substituting
/system/media/video/shutdown/shutdown.qmg
The problem is that this file type isn't editable nor creatable, I think. So the only think you can do is copying another shutdown animation from another phone/rom.
This AT&T boot animation is annoying the hell out of me.
a quick search would have helped with this...

Change bootanimation.zip in /system/media
Root required
Im trying to change my boot animation manually by accessing /system/media and replace the original zip file. I already renamed the new and old file with bootanimation.zip and bootanimation.zip.bak, respectively. And lastly, change the permission of the new zip file with rw-r--r-- but for some reason, it wont work. My phone wont recognized the new boot animation and would just skip it entirely. Does anyone know the problem and how to fix it? The original boot animation does work if i revert back the original.
Currently running pixel experience 8.1
Update: it seems that custom boot animation only works with pixel style boot animation. i tested dark theme pixel boot animation and it works but other than that, no other custom boot animation works.
