[Q] Galaxy S ii Boot Animation - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am looking for the GalaxyS ii stock boot animation to be used on Serendipidty Cappy edition froyo. Will someone please lead me to this?
Thanks..

Rip apart the sgs2 rom and find it in system/media and it may be sanim.zip or bootanimation.zip

i found a zip on the i9000 forums, except i guess the galaxys2 uses a different method of bootanimations, i get a bunch of files instead of a single bootanimation.zip like there would be on cappy..

Maybe the zip you found was the boot ani

Yea, I managed to get the bootanimation working after deleting bootanimation.zip on the cappy and then overwriting the files in media with the files i downloaded
but, before the boot screen loads, there is still the att screen and then a black SGH-i897 screen, I know how to remove the ATT screen, but how about the black SGh-i897 screen? and replace that with sgs gs2 screen?
thanks

I think the black i897 screen your talking about is built into the kernel.

Right there with ya. I'd like to change the black SGh-i897 screen as well.

The black SGH-I897 screen, as I know, is a splash screen of some kernels

[AUDIO][CWM3][01/21/11] Custom Boot/Shutdown Sounds - Edify/Amend

[01/21/11] These new .zip files are updated to work with all versions of CWM, the scripts are both Edify and Amend friendly. Enjoy!
Previews:
Startup
Shutdown
Shutdown 2
Shutdown 3
There are 6 files attached here, all flashable through ClockworkMod. The titles of the files should be self-explanatory. You'll notice that one of the .zip's will flash you back to the stock Epic boot and shutdown sounds.
I've confirmed that they work with DI18 stock (rooted), DK28 stock (rooted), and Bonsai 1.1.4, so I don't see why they wouldn't work on any ROM.
Your phone must be rooted and have ClockworkMod Recovery (any version).
*I suppose I must do the obligatory I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU JACK YOUR PHONE UP*
Instructions:
- download flashable .zip and flash through clockwork.
That's it, reboot and enjoy!

No, the sound effect is a portion of (what I believe to be) the Droid Incredible boot sound; I created the "epic" and associated sound processing.

Pretty sweet! It does kind of remind me of the first time I saw Optimus Prime transform in the live action move. The "Epic" part is a nice touch.
Need help getting this to work. I have done every step to the T, and still no avail. I have custom boot animations as well as custom boot sounds but, for some reason this one file just says unsupported file type after clicking on it in /system/etc folder. It plays while on the sdcard itself. So if you know a work around that would be great cause this boot sounds is awesome.

This is probably a dumb question, but did you unzip the .wav first? Assuming that you did, you should have a file on your sd card with the name "PowerOn.wav"; if you copy that file into /system/etc you should have no problem. Verify that you have a file in that folder with that exact name, not just the "PowerOn.bak" that you may have created in backup up your original boot sound.
What file manager are you using? I've done this using both Astro and Root Explorer and am able to select the file in /system/etc and it plays on the built in music player.
Added the option to flash through clockwork, updated OP with options.
very nice I will install this
reminds me of transformers or THX
Just flashed the CWM zip and dangit still nothing. I must have changed something in that folder. Im going to reinstall my rom and see if that fixes my prob. I really want this boot sound.

His ROM is exactly why I created this in the first place! Didn't care much for the one he included, but I love his ROM and the boot animation!

You read my mind! I've been learning about how to make one today. The only catch is, it will only work on a ROM with a custom kernel, or a kernel that has been modified and re-compiled. Currently the only Froyo ROM that I know of that this might be an option with is Mammon's Bonsai ROM (which is what I run).
I'll keep fiddling and see what I can come up with.

you can custom your boot up sound: make a wav file, name it PowerOn.wav, copy it to /etc folder.

From what I understand if the kernel supports custom boot image then boot sound will not work. Could be wrong though.

It has to do with the ROM choice as well, I believe the boot sound is contained within the odex, so if the rom is deodexed, there will be no boot sound.

[REQ] Stock Boot Animation

Can I get the stock animation zipped up as a bootscreen.zip? I deleted the custom one and the stock shows up but I get an "ANDROID" watermark over it and lags up.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

There is the link. It contains the stock samsung boot and shutdown ani's, and the coresponding audio for them.
Just unzip and place in the appropriate folders using root explorer. No need to rename anything, the boot animation is in the original .qmg format.
Hope these are what youre looking for.
Oh yeah and they are un-branded (no verizon, telus, etc.)

Thanks. I will try them out now. Hopefully it kills that nasty watermark
EDIT: Nope it's still there
When you use a kernel that supports the stock android bootanimation.zip files and don't have a bootanimation.zip file to go with it, you'll get that Android flashing in the middle of the screen for some reason. Not sure why though, but the only way to fix it would be to either put a bootanimation.zip file back in place, or disable custom boot animations.

go into root explorer go into SYSTEM then BIN inside BIN youll find a file named BOOTANIMATION it should be near the top since its in alphabetical order just delete that file and itll get rid of the "android" animation thats over your bootanimation. and reboot
Thanks again. One last thing. This animation is lagging bad. Any way to six that?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Not that I'm aware of. I never had any lag from it except for the first boot after moving it in. personally I don't know any way to edit those damn qmg files, if I can figure anything out I'll try to make a.zip of it. I really haven't tried breaking it up so maybe out will be no biggie...we'll see

possiable to get a flashable version or is there one already?
i'm not to good at effin with sysytem files yet and really don't want to f anything up
Like anything else effing with system files just takes practice. If you work with computer files its the same thing.
If you are not sure of something than move or rename the file, then you can always put it back.
Use Root Explorer or some other ' root' file manager.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Generally speaking the boot animation is fairly safe to"eff" with. The most damage you can really do is having a blank black boot screen.
If you're still worried make a nandroid backup first then eff away;-)
Seriously though, quite safe. Just always double check any file before replacing or deleting, make sure you got the right one.

{MOD} Animated Pulldown Bar

If you have made a Animated Pulldown Bar animation post it and i will upload it into the OP. I will also be making some when i get time im very busy trying to get work things together but i will work on what i can but please share your work i will give full credit and show it off thank you.
Video of what this looks like
If you wish to try this your self look HERE for that info.
Made by notta:
It will work much like the multi-anim zip I did "if familiar with it" by means of renaming a file inside a folder called notta on your sdcard to the animation of your choice. Then just reboot to recovery and flash the same zip you downloaded. Thats it!
Hopefully one zip, 15 different anims, working on CM7 and MIUI.
Instructions copied from the file you will rename (sdcard/notta/green-lightning)
Open as text such as with Root Explorer to view
Instructions for use:
Simply rename this file, the one you are reading to the pulldown animation of your choice. Reboot to recovery and reflash the original zip you downloaded. It will identify your choice by the file and patch that set. Be advised if you mispell your choice, nothing will be flashed and error.txt will reside in /sdcard/notta. NOTE: A dalvik wipe should be performed on the first initial flash, it should not be necessary after that.
So far the pulldown animations to rename default to are:
Please rename exactly as shown:
green-lightning
green-lightning2
blue-lightning
blue-lightning2
blue-lightning3
blue-lightning4
nerve
nerve2
pixel
pink-bounce
orange-bounce
blue-cosmic
apparition
red-plasma
cosmic-string
Consider it a beta zip & Again let me know how things work or give feedback. I have tested this but not extensively, It works by identifying whether ThemeChooser.apk (CM7) or ThemeEngine.apk (MIUI) resides in the system/app folder. If one or the other is not there, it won't flash anything!
I figure being able to theme on the fly is one of the reasons people run these roms, so it was a quick and easy solution to combine both in one zip.
The status bar may take a moment to set back in between animation choices. Also the animation never works on the first pulldown, just pull down a second time and it works great from then on out.
Also makes an undo flashable backup for both CM7 & MIUI!

Full tv power off animation for the samsung captivate.

Im having an issue changing my shutdown animation. There is one in another forum called tv power off animation i am trying to load. I have a captivate running cognition. I put the file in the system/ media/video folder but its not working. Any ideas? or advice? thanx for any help
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
I believe that animation is a Gb only. If it where to work on froyo Im almost sure you would need to modify files for it to use that anim. Assuming its even possible.
i think you have that backwards....
its for froyo the shutdowm .qmg for gb hasnt been modded....the best you can do on gb is delete shutdown.qmg and then you will just have the "POWER OFF shutting down" window and then it powers off. no blue 'S' or animation at all
although the OP didnt specify what cog hes on or give a link to the animation in question so it could be a new one for gb and he is on froyo...
but i dont think so...
I thought he ment the crt animation that GB has.
Ed05 gingerbread power of animation is the forum i found it in and i am running cog5 v 2. so it sounds like it wont work on the captivate? in the forum its for the fascinate.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
i think the problem here is you are confusing SHUTDOWN animation with screen-off animation....my guess is that anything made for the fascinate wont have the exact same framework as the captivate....
Well in the forum i am referring to it is a shutdown animation not a screen off animation. And thats why i am asking to see if it will work?

what you are requesting is a mod for a 2.2.2 rom...and you are trying to run it on a GB rom
its just shutdown animation. i dont think GB uses the same animations that froyo used, so if its not working, you will need to find one for GB.
Which brings us back to my first post...

that would be an accurate statement if he was looking to replace the BOOT ANIMATION, but he is looking to replace SHUTDOWN animation...
So is there any custom shutdown animations for gb on my captivate? cuz i cant find any.
