I grew tired of doing this manually via the command line every time I re-flashed so I followed what others did and pieced this together. This takes cares of startup/shutdown audio and video. It basically eliminates anything that remotely resembles T-Mobile and gives that extra long shutdown sequence (60 frames). UPDATE: It works great with UVJI5. In fact, the new ROM is the reason why I created this and thus the only ROM I've tested it on. UPDATE: As expected, it works with UVJI6. You will just have to re-root. ROM Manager's automatic process was acting up so I had to go into its manual mode and choose the file myself.
You will need to flash this via ROM Manager.
Best,

UPDATE: Attached to post; VapidShare gave up on us prematurely.
UPDATE: I apologize for being a little vague, unintentionally ... this gives the phone the stock SGS I9000 startup/shutdown animations. There is another update out there that accomplishes the same thing but for whatever reason only offered 14 frames in the shutdown. This is the full 60 frames of the S breaking up into little pieces. It's the reverse of the startup, essentially.
Reserved by OP for future use
Totally joking of course ... I just always wanted to do that!
Works great, thanks! First time I have seen the shutdown longer than 14 frames. Hooray!
Does this work on the new firmware?

Great question ... I forgot to mention in my original post: this update works great with UVJI5 ... in fact, it's what led me to create it. Jacking around with Kies for an hour in vain left me with no energy to deal with extricating my phone from those horrid T-mobile startup/shutdown sounds and graphics.

This looks like the same one I already had I want to one with the extended shutdown animation like the OP had posted
IDK the one i posted replaces tmobile with the original galaxy s boot/shutdown
removed link
Sorry guys, I am at work and my client's firewall does not let me through to rapidshare ... if I can find a few minutes of downtime, I will seek alternatives. I can't even download the file to attach it to a post in this forum (it's almost 8MB, BTW; I don't know if I'm even allowed to). I will see if it's at least still on my phone.
Yes, this removes the T-Mobile start-up shutdown animations (audio and video) with the stock SGS I9000 ones but it has the extended version of the shutdown. As I originally mentioned, I pieced it together from others' updates.
UPDATE: I attached the file to the original post! My apologies to all who were inconvenienced by the RapidShare link.
NP no rush here.

Thanks, much appreciated
Installed through Rom Manager with no issues.
Very nice. Thank you very much.
the reason the original only had 14 frames is because the original shutdown would only play 14 frames and stop.
Does this work on the stock roms and some of Eugenes.
I haven't ventured out into the JI5 stuff simply because I'm waiting for all the smoke to clear.
got it working

It should work just fine with any ROM. It is a very simple script. It just removes the existing PowerOn and Shutdown sounds and replaces the two bootsamsung QMG files and overwrites the shutdown animation folder. In the worst case, it would just do nothing.
Folks, feel free to download it and see the constituent files. There is an update-script in the META-INF/com/google/.... directory.
Good luck,

what option in rommanager u using?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click "Install ROM from SD Card", then choose this file (GalaxySBoot.zip or whatever), don't choose any "Pre-installation" options, and just click OK. Since it's not named update.zip, it shouldn't conflict with ROM Manager's "process" (for some people, ROM Manager needs to lay down its update.zip in order to ensure that when booting into the stock recovery it is able to load itself via said file).
I hope this helped.
Hey heres the rundown.
Captivate running Andromeda3 with the Ursa Minor kernel. I just downloaded the new Nexus Prime boot animation from the link below. Flashed it through CWM but now when I boot it just plays the Andromeda boot animation. Am I missing out on something here?
Link to the BA: http://www.droid-life.com/2011/10/08/download-nexus-prime-boot-animation/
It installed it to the wrong directory.
That script flashed it to /data/local
For our phones bootanimation.zip is installed to /system/media.
Use a root file explorer and paste it in the aforementioned location.

Cool. Thanks for the help. But one more thing, how did you know that? Im asking so in the future I can troubleshoot little problems like this on my own.
The link you gave says where it installs to right in the paragraph...
I know where boot animations go, and that wasn't it.
I mean this in the nicest possible way but please read everything you're about to flash BEFORE you flash it or you could very possibly brick your phone.

The boot animation from the Nexus Prime aka Galaxy Nexus that was teased to us earlier in the week is now available for everyone to play with. The instructions we have are for flashing in Clockwork Recovery, but if you aren’t rooted, you will have to do it the old fashioned way by extracting and moving the bootanimation.zip into /data/local or wherever your particular phone pulls media from.

I read it, I just didnt know that our phones pull media from another folder. Also the way it is worded kind of confused me. I appreciate the warning though. Been on here a little over six months now and havent managed to brick yet because I typically do more reading than posting. Thanks for the help.
I may be in the minority but I like the original Kitkat boot animation that carried on to Lollipop 5.01. Also I would like to keep that original boot screen and animation in case something goes wrong and I need to return the phone on the extended warranty I have. Now when I load the custom rooms, I get another boot logo and animation, a new M and colored dots running about the screen instead of the world thing that normally animates. How can I extract the animation sequence and either flash it back with TWRP or manually change it in my phone. Thanks.

After putting it in there and deleting the old bootanimation, making sure it was set for rw-r-r, and booting umpteen times, I have no animation at all now. I can open it up and run the animations inside it, so I know it's good. I did a search, and it's the only bootanimation.zip on my device but it still won't show when I boot. When I start up, all I see is the new "M" with the "by Lenovo" under the "M" and no animations. I don't know where that new "M" is coming from but it's not in the system/media directory.
I thought you are on stock rom but you flashed different bootanimation and you want old one.
I think video bootanimation works only on stock or the stock based rom. On which ROM you are ?
I am not sure , but I think that CM based rom dont support video mp4 bootanimations.
I read somewhere that some changes in the system / bin /bootanimation can help but I did not try.
Anyway if it is for waranty purposes as you said you can allways flash stock rom and you will have stock bootanimation.
But unlocked bootloader is generally no waranty

Yeah, I think you're right. I'm using Shawn's Titan Prime and his animation is a series of "png" files that I would have known if I'd looked at it.. I'll go back to the Rom's original one now. Thanks for the help.
You can try with instructions on this link:

But backup first your original bootanimation binaries from system/bin and bootanimation zip from system/media.

Does anyone have the stock shutdown animation in a flashable zip? I want to get rid of the carrier shutdown animation on my Note5. It's driving me insane. I was able to flash the stock Marshmallow boot animation and that works so I imagine the shutdown animation from any Note5 variant works well on my SM-9208. Thanks!

Thank you. I saw that after I started the post but wasn't certain whether the Sammy animation in his preview was the official one that comes with the non-carrier versions. Do you know if it is?

What didn't work? I had it up and running on my phone. I deleted the file after I chose my animations (Marshmallow boot, CRT Shutdown), so I can't go and check if they had the Samsung shutdown animation.
It should work though, so long as you're rooted.

I'm rooted. I still have my carrier boot animation on shutdown. It might be a quirk of my carrier's ROM. I understand it doesn't work on some other carrier-branded ROMs too.
Sent from my SM-N9208 using Tapatalk
why would you need a flashable zip if you are rooted? Just delete shutdown.qmg or whatever that file is called, and replace it with the shutdown animation you want.
Maybe your carrier has a different name for the animation file, but the process should still be the same - just rename the shutdown animation file to match whatever the original one was called.

I have 6 files -- bootsamsung.qmg, bootsamsungloop.qmg, bootsamsungmini.qmg, bootsamsungmini2.qmg, bootsamsungmini2loop.qmg and bootsamsungminiloop.qmg.
I also have crypt_bootsamsung.qmg and crypt_bootsamsungloop.qmg.
I'm not certain which of those is the one I should be renaming. That's why I wanted the zip. I wanted to take it apart to see which one it is so I don't accidentally do something to my device that I'll regret.
Also, I don't actually have the animation from the non-carrier SM-9208 so I don't have anything to replace the QMG file with.
EDIT: I found it!! It wasn't any of those. My carrier hid it in another folder. Just renamed it and now it's gone. Thank goodness. Their stuff was garbage.

Well for Bootanimations all you have to do is scour XDA for Bootanimations with the same display size in mind and manually replace them with a Root/File Manager.

@runningnak3d has answered this before, and I always mess up repeating what he said -- but it's basically you can brick your phone if you don't know exactly what/where you are replacing. On North America V30, people have gotten rid of the annoying unlocked bootloader animation (which is really just a "picture" -- so it's a boot logo) by REPLACING the entire partition with Verizon VS996 "Resources" and Resources_bak" -- which gives you a few seconds of black. But to actually flash a NEW boot logo (something of your own choice) is entirely different and harder.
And @runningnak3d can clarify/correct anything I just said.
Ah, found it:

runningnak3d said:
If you want to figure out the format of the raw_resources partition, that is where all the images are stored. It is possible to change them, but if you mess up, then your phone is a brick since abl will not load -- which is why the risk just wasn't worth it for me.
They are RLE so they have no header. There is an index that gives the name and offset for the location of the image, but not the size (either they are all the same size, or the size is stored somewhere else).

On the VS996 flash zip I no longer have the bootloader warning splash but I do still have the v30 boot logo instead of the v30+. Kinda like to have the v30+ one from the US998U/LS998.
As far as the animations go the Verizon has a boot animation (2part) bootanimation_decrypting (2part) and shutdown animation all in the system/bin/media folder.
Just recently updated the G7 on the Verizon OTA 10f and now it uses the same decrypting animation at boot.
I'll check out that link, I don't have a burning desire for the boot logo but I backed up my boot animation and may do it the old fashioned adb way in recovery. If it goes well I may change the shutdown animation as well.

Wait so does this risk just pertain to the unlocked bootloader warning or for the power on and off animations as well? Cause before on my V20 all I had to do was basically replace the boot animation and shut down animation zips or rename them to .bak so they don't load at all. So as long as I don't mess with the one labeled decrypting then there shouldn't be a risk right?

I presume it pertains to attempting to edit the boot logo (boot splash image) as it is not just a static image file in the system subdirectories.

I downloaded it and looked at the zip it created. It sets the right permissions and placed the animation in the right location. Easy enough to take that zip and swap in a shutdown animation file and rename the permission setting line in the updater script to make one for shutdown animation. I was sitting here over breakfast thinking about swapping the two out on my device. Just for all that work I may as well just use the terminal in twrp and make the chmod changes myself.
And that bhootie site......sheeeeesh that's a lot of porn, and it's shutting down soon as well. I have no idea why ?

Can't find Bhootie in the play store
One of the interesting things I found is that this phone boots so quickly. I ramped up the frame rate on my phone to decrease the start time. The Verizon boot animation is looong.
I was going to change the shutdown animation too to a different LG but I realized I was just trying to be different (modding addiction) and when I'm shutting the phone (which is never) I don't pay it any attention.
