stumped: boot animations--SOLVED - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I have juggs 5.0 installed with synergy's kernel. I have tried changing my boot animation but for one reason or another it is not working. I have tried using flashable zips and have also tried copy/paste with root explorer. When it boots I get synergy kernel splash screen and then a black screen until the phone has completed booting. Is there something I am missing?

try putting the bootanimation.zip (rename it that) in /data/local/

Can you be more specific on what I should be changing the permissions on? If its the file explorer I have root access and can modify items in the system folder.
Attached is the bootanimation I am trying for. I don't care so much about the sound.

LOL the bootanimation.zip is of a single black picture... there is your issue. get a bootanimation that is more than 1 black image

You can try dropping it in the usual place it will either work or not .
Modified QMG will don't know about zip.

There is no program to get. It's a closed format, if you want edit their files - then you need to pay.

well theres a way
guys theres no way to edit those .qmg formats.....but theres a way we can make our phones use zip formats.....this mod is for froyo and gingerbread.you can try on honeycomb and ics but follow the precautions given in the end:
1.go to system/bin folder....find the file named samsungani ,rename it to samsungani.bak.....
2.then find the file bootanimation in the same folder,rename it to samsungani...set its permissions as rwxr-xr-x.if you dont understand these permissions then simply check the permissions of any other file in the same folder and set the same permissions.
3.place your bootanimation.zip in system/media and set its permissions ---rwxr-x
4.now, when i did this on my phone,i entered a bootloop and even after my phone had booted properly,the custom bootanimation kept playing .thank god i have and external keyboard and when i opened it the screen orientation changed .now,the bootanimation was unable to cover the whole screen,so some part of the screen became visible, i used that part to go to system/bin/samsungani and i renamed it back to bootanimation,then i rebooted and there was no bootanimation
due to above problems i suggest u to use a bootanimation of the smallest possible size.that way ,even if u enter a bootloop the bootanimation will cover a small part of the screen and u will be able to revvert the changes .
actually ,gingerbread needs custom kernel to support the above mod,thats why i entered a bootloop.....all of us have different kernels so not all will encounter the same problem.....
please hit thanks button if i helped.......(really important ,otherwise the mod wont work
Simple method use a kernel that supports boot animation zip and place boot animation.zip in system/media folder job done .

Thank you!

yepp place ur bootanimation to system /media then place a copy of ur bootanimation to data/local ... if it works for u press the thanks button
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
phenomenal based on speedmod kernel, to make your bootanimation work you should do this:
use root explorer, copy your bootanimation to /system/media, make sure you make 2 another copy bootanimation
rename 1st copy: ODEAnim.zip, 2nd copy: sanim.zip
go to /system/bin, look for samsungani and rename with samsungani.bak
look for bootanimation and rename with samsungani
reboot and enjoy your new bootanimation:good:
can you try this?

[REQ] Linkin Park ring bootanimation and lockscreen for Galaxy S2

Hey I am kinda theming my phone with Linkin Park so is there anyone who can create a beautiful bootanimation consisting of Linkin Park logo ring ( like one in my profile pic) and also a lockscreen using that ring.
Thanks in adcance.

Anyone ?
I'm no Dev, but maybe if you provided someone with a jpeg, they might be able to work with it.
Also, I think there's a way that the user can edit the boot animation through system files, search the forum a bit, and you may find.

same way i described just rename to bootanimation.zip first
Android actually keeps*two*copies of the animation file. One is stored at*/data/local*and the other at*/system/media. The difference between these locations is minor.
The /data/local copy does not require root access. The phone also uses this animation before the other.
The other one in /system/media does require root. However, installing a new animation to /system/media means that it will survive a factory reset. It’s a trade-off.

buddy, just look into /system/media. There would be a bootanimation.zip. just have a copy of that first & then follow the process below:
Extract the above given file after downloading
in System/media folder there might be bootanimation.zip file
replace it with your mobile /system/media/
Give right of -rw-r--r--
Reboot. Enjoy..
For safety purpose, take backup first.

They must have changed it for the GS5. There isn't a bootanimation.zip in the system/media folder. Also, the desc.txt file in (at least the first one) would need to be changed from 480 800 to 1080 1920.

Might have to be on a custom ROM. I just rooted without recovery installed. The ROM probably has it built in, did RDDT ND2 have a custom bootup?

It seems that moto G does not support sound in boot animation. I tried many times with no luck. File attached in the OP has boot sound implemented, but for some reason it does not work.
