So I recently restored my phone and before I activated it had a very neat LG boot animation and sound but as soon as I activated the phone it installed a lot of bloat ware including a hideous Sprint spark boot animation. Any way to get the stock LG animation back?

Hello all,
I tried installing a custom boot animation in /data/local but it didn't work. Any ideas where the bootanimation.zip should go on this phone?
Thanks
There is a folder called /bootimages. May want to check it out and see if that is what you are looking for.
Tried that. No joy there either.
I haven't checked into it myself yet, but in system/bin there is a boot animation file. I don't know if those are it, but a good place to check.

I'm guessing this is to replace the Verizon animation? I can't stand having sounds when I try to power on the phone in a steathy manner...

Yah, already killed the sound though. Found that one in /system/sounds/power/poweron.wav

Anyone else notice keylogger and keylogger_test in that folder as well?
Boot animation process is not android standard style.
Next decrapped rom will not use LG's weird boot animation service, and will contain a neato new bootscreen I'm working on
The LG Revolution uses .rle files for the boot animation. I have yet to find any software that will allow me to edit these files. It is definitely not the normal way most androids have for their boot animation.

[How-To] Make custom bootscreen/bootlogo (image to rle)/(rle to image)
So I have note3 I rooted with lingo everything was food good. Then I loaded safestrap and now I'm stuck at the samsung boot screen with the unlocked custom pad lock logo.
How do I get back to a working bootable phone and remove the padlock icon? I found this post but don't know if I'm on mj5 or not?

Need more info..are you just trying to get rid of padlock or is phone stuck on thst screen? If so did you try battery pull or booting into recovery via power button + home+volume up

You don't need to be on MJ5 to restore to it.

Both. I have the padlock and it stays on the Samsung screen. At this point I just what to get back to a stock state and clear any of the tamper flags

I had a similar problem yesterday. I accidentally deleted my os without replacing it cuz im a noob. I was stuck on the boot screen with the padlock.
I went into panic mode and upgraded to kitkat. It worked, but I wanted root, and safestrap. So I followed the method that you linked, and it successfully restored me to 4.3 with root access.
In short, it will work, but it will wipe your phone. And it didn't trip knox for me.

I downloaded xposed framework on my LG G2 vs980 ioroot 21 twrp recovery & was making status bar tweaks mostly & after rebooting pushing my home button would pop up systemui has stoped? Looking on titanium backup the home apk was gone (not the launcher the system apk!) With no backup? I'm a noob but would never uninstall that & had all my apps backed up but it was gone? I'm retarded & couldn't recover my phone & had to hard factory reset my phone. After reset systemui still crashes & the LG wizard crashes at syncing contacts? I've tried going back to stock firmware but again I'm a noob & can't figure it out. Will the kitkat update fix this? I can't really wait for Verizon to get with the program can anybody help me via teamviewer? I'm lost without my phone & just plain going nuts jumping through hoops getting to apps. Thank you for reading any help is appreciated

Im assuming you were just on stock? If you install a recovery, then just make a nandroid in case this happens.
As long as you didn't have a recovery installed, the reset should have fixed it I would think. Use the lg flash tool and the 11a tot tile and that should set you back to out of the box new.
Using the 24a leak should also work.

If the lg flash tool is giving you issues, have you downloaded the updated united drivers?
Have a second computer you can try? Sometimes the computers operating system makes it fail

Yeah stock rom twrp recovery with a nandroid backup couldn't recover I have no idea why? All the apks xposed erased were erased on titanium with no backup & I had every system app backed up I even have every system app backed up with my backup pro & it fails to install them. Everything is ready to go on the LG flashtool but a milky way error pops up upon trying to install? Install the kitkat aosp nightly rom says no command & after factory reset my status is still rooted even if I'm not.

If you have twrp installed. You can use adb sideload to sideload a ROM using adb

The milky error is common. It's even in the description of how to restore to stock. And are you trying to run the LG flashtool with the phone on? And not in download mode
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
No phones in DL mode I've tried everything I can think of checked unchecked milky way port read a few different how to 's on how to do it & everthing looks right start to finish? I'm on 12b I bootlooped my phone & someone via teamviewer restored it back to stock firmware everything is in place but the firmware was 11b but I've seen post saying flash back to 11b from 12b I could be mistaken?

So I rooted my Note, but I'm on the stock ROM. After I rooted I got the initial boot screen before the Att animation come up as "custom" with an unlocked icon. This stayed that way for a few days until I got curious if I had tripped Knox, so I went in download mode to see that I hadn't. After that, I now no longer see the "custom" at boot up. In not sure what happened... Lol.

it means your phone is rooted
I know the "custom" boot screen means I'm rooted. But I no longer see it since I checked my knox status in download mode but I still have root.

Did you apply the security tweak in Wanam?
No. But thanks for pointing me in that direction. More tweaks.
