Ah finally, great advice, that works, i put the original bootanimation and bootanimation.zip from the original rom back in media and bin and that got the boot animation working again. I guess this rom already has a custom one, since I'm using cm10.1 and the animation is different than the stock one. So to use these boot animations, liek the sexy animation or nexus one for example, all I should have to do is rename them to bootanimation.zip and throw it in system/media and it should work, right? Just making sure. Thanks again for helping me fix the black screen!

Edit: I see that's all it takes, so easy how could I have gone wrong? ha. Sexy boot worked fine, but was smaller and showed large black borders. Nexus was full screen and looked great. Android in space didnt work at all, just showed pure black (like problem before, but obviously for different reason, maybe resolution issue). Besides the Nexus HD, "The Beast/Hulk," and Android in pencil/notebook boots, are there any more to be found?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Perka:
Sweet works fine on my sgs3 :)

Thx!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jco23:
hmm, this failed for my Droid Charge. :(

my steps were:

installed the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip via CWM, then saved my boot animation file as "bootanimation.zip" in the system/media folder. I got stuck with the android animation - the screen would not change, but was responsive in the sense that I could feel it vibrate when attempting to unlock via AOSP locks.

thanks though.

Works perfectly on my s3, is there a way to remove the boot sound? And to put a custom boot sound?

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Spixe1:
I want to make sure to check with you first since last time I did this I blacked out my boot for several days. I just installed Android Revolution HD 8, and it does not have a custom boot animation (unlike cm10.1 which I used last time), so replacing the bootanimation.zip is not an option, as it does not exist. So what would I do exactly to load the nexus boot for example? There's many different files (boot samsungani, custom boot enabler, etc) and instructions but I'm not sure which applies to this situation. Thanks for any tips.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
The sexy bootanimation is already optimized (another frame rate and almost full screen) see my bootanimation thread.

Another animations are not intended to fill the screen, like android in space and "have a drink" cannot and will not fill the screen...

Also, users should NOT be mixing methods on how to get custom boot animation working.

.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
I already posted on ARHD thread how to get custom boot animation support and warned the OP over there about the misinformation on his first post about that

Why don't you post over there as well?

Anyone know what permissions to set for the boot sound on the GS3? I tried the permissions on the OP but not getting anything. Also have Samsungpowersoundplay in system/bin need the permissions for this as well.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kubbur87:
I'm having trouble getting the sound to work, i put a ogg file and renamed it in the audio/ui folder, changed the permissions to match the existing file, checked for samsungpowersoundplay in system/bin and it was there, but it didn't work so i dled the file from op and replaced it, it has a. Bin extension though but still it doesn't work, any ideas of how to get it working?

Previously i flashed the samsungonly file and worked like a charm, i also installed bootanimation root and used it to install custom animations, i have sgnote2 n7100 stock rom(4.1.2), custom recovery and rooted
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
I don't really understand why even touch anything else other than the PowerOn.ogg file in /system /media /audio /ui regarding the boot sound.

My latest custom bootanimation ( Brazil bootY animation ) comes with it's own boot sound ( if installed with my all-in-one bootanimation installer) and that other file in /system /bin you mentioned is never involved ..

.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kubbur87:
Then ill just switch it back, but any idea of how to get the sound going?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kubbur87:
Nvm, after i removed the .bin file and renamed the backup it worked, allthough i was in a class when i restarted the phone and had a porn clip as bootup sound :P
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] KJ.Moore:
If /system/bin/bootanimation exists do we flash Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip or both or can we just do Bootanimation4U.zip?

Thank you!!:good:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] SubCool:
Im sorry, but reading 11 pages of quarrels does not answer questions.

I tried the setup. - i installed an ogg. or which ever sound file. Is there a Mb max? -

I also believe i edit the samsung file correctly- but.. what permissions am i supposed to set it to?

I set it to read/write to all - Still no sound during boot.

Im working with a samsung epic - SPH-d700

You need to make sure the first row is checked then just the top box on the second row and leave all of the other boxes unchecked and you should be good to go.

Carrier's Logo or Bootanim

When a Rom have a Carrier Logo on Boot and Shutdown, we can replace them by original Samsung that are:

Boot --> system/media/bootsamsung.qmg

Shutdown --> system/media/video/shutdown/shutdown.qmg

Attached this 2 original files.

Bootanimation4U.zip invalidate the first. For shutdown we must replace the file.

Hi,

I am having the same issue as well, tried everything and it is still boting with the "ANDRIOD" logo.....what did you do to fix this?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] anbech:
when the device is showing the green android text animation, its because it have the custom bootanimation enabled, but cannot find any bootanimation.zip on the device, in either the "/data/local"-folder nor the "/system/media"-folder..

---------- Post added at 01:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 AM ----------

try upload the sound file you cant make it work with, and i will try investigate it.. had same issue with a sound file for another mate, and the problem was that the startup sound was different in the way it was made, for the newer android version..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] vincentshjuan:
Yup, I checked there too and guessed the same thing, was hoping you have better luck than me in figuring out where this custom bootanimation is kept......

Do post back if you finally figured it out though.....and thanks for the reply.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] anbech:
not quite sure i understand what you mean, but do you have any "bootanimation.zip"-file in either "/data/local" or "/system/media" -folder?

if yes, let me take a look at your animation, and i will see if that could be the issue..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] vincentshjuan:
Like you, I can't find the bootanimation file in those said folders, and it is still voting with the Android logo.....
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] anbech:
"like you" ?

well, if you cant find a bootanimation.zip-file in one of those directories, just copy a bootanimation.zip-file into one of those folders..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] vincentshjuan:
Sorry my bad, I mistaken you for android mechanic.....I had the same issue like android mechanic.....

Anyway, I manage to locate the original Samsung bootanimation.zip file but when I put it in /data/local and reboot, I got blank screen and never came out of it, have to remove battery, reboot into Twrp and delete that zip file. Any idea?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] androidmechanic:
If you are running a UCMD jb ROM and all you have where the bootanimation.zip file should be is a bootsamsung.qmg file, the ROM/kernel may not support it.

this is the exact type of bootAni mod that ive been looking for a quick question im trying to generate a rom from stock soat this point since it doesnt support BootAni i would have to do these steps(correct me if im wrong)

1.flash the rom to my phone

2.then flash your mod(if necessary add BusyBox)

3. make a back up of the rom

4. then start builiding from there.

sorry im a Beginner Dev so any help would be great

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] robcop19:
clarify

so say i have an s3 should i flash both the 4U zip and the samsungani zip? or just the samsung?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
I only flashed the Bootanimation4U.zip on my wife's stock rooted AT&T S3 and it works fine.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] robcop19:
both

i ended up flashing both before i saw what you said but it finally changed my bootani. the only thing i have to work out now is that the animation doesnt move. or maybe it does but it wont go all the way through and then the screen just blanks as the sounds keep going. i go tit straight off of rom toolbox so its not like i have edited it except the resolution. so i dont know where to go again :P
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
It's pretty hard to sync the sound with boot animations, they usually play a few secs after the animation starts. Which boot ani did you try?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] robcop19:
not sound

i actually could care less whether it makes sounds or not cause even on stock they were never in sync but the aniimation i have (blue eyes dark in rom toolbox) doesnt move and if it does on ly the first few frames but they dont move otherwise. i opened the zip and saw it had 2 part1s' and part0's so i thought i should delete one of easch and then inside the part1 there is another zip file called bootanimation so i was going to try and take tha out next. but im not supposed to mess with them once theyre downloaded arent i? execpt for the resolution of course
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
It's not your fault, I checked it out and whoever made it didn't know what they were doing, here's a fixed version.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] robcop19:
Omg wow thank you so much! I didn't know what was going on with me jaja

I did try it though and it still doesn't move though. I i noticed the desc file looked weird though. It didn't look quite like normal ones I've seen. The resolution and frame rate was at the top but the rest said

p 10 0 part0

So i think I should probably fix that right?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
No, that just tells it to loop it

up to

10 times, since it's composed of only 36 frames. I usually make my boot anis 300 frames so they run for up to 10 secs @ 30FPS.

It works fine here, I dunno man, did you try a different boot ani? Try one from the thread in my signature, they are all known to work. If that doesn't work for you it's on your end. Lastly I would try a dirty flash and then re-flashing just Bootanimation4U.zip. If it's really boogered you might have to reinstall the ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] robcop19:
But I thought I had to say "part" and the next part had to be below it

I know it worked for you so I restored a nandroid I had before I flashed those 2 files and I'll just flash one of them

Edit

So that didn't work so my next best bet is doing a full restore then isn't it? And from scratch flash the file and move zip?

And dirty flash? The bootani zip or what?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] holdenjr1642:
Thanks

The 421 enable zip just worked on my SPH-L720 (Sprint SGS4):victory::D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
No, I meant dirty flash the ROM. Best bet is a fresh start if you're really unsure what happened, best of luck, buddy. :)

Thanks a lot man :)

One more question do you think replacing the Samsungani file with the bootanimation (after renaming it Samsungani) in the system bin folder? I saw that previously so I'm guessing the file changes with the bootanimation placed in the media folder
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
Nope, doesn't work that way.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] robcop19:
thank you

Thank you for your help and i tried using another bootani and it actually worked just fine!

im not sure why the eyes one doesnt work others do work and i hadnt done a dirty flash yet. I really liked the eyes but my maingoal was just getting it changed and its great. Ill be looking for the original .qmg files for other variants of the galaxy s3 now to see if i can mess with those and maybe one day get those eyes going but again thank you for you help and the file!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ReelFiles:
You're welcome, I got some .qmg shut down animations linked in the thread in my signature, they are Note 2 and S3 compatible, have fun!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andronald:
I know this is only intended for the Note 2, but you did say it should work on almost any samsung phone.

I flashed the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip, and it does show a boot animation.

But it never ends, the bootanimation hangs after the phone fully boots. When I rotate my phone, the bootanimation will hang to the right hand side of the screen, and I can see the left hand side.

Is there a fix for this (I removed this mod a while back, so no worries on that). The phone I am trying to mod phone is not a "flagship" phone, and does not have a forum, or, any custom ROMS for it yet. Thus, telling you what phone I am using would not help you at all, since I highly doubt any of you would use one on a day-to-day basis.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
First, don't multi-post like that. Just use one post please!

Second, you probably want the one that's not "Samsungani.only", since the bootanimation executable sizes are different (actually, it matches the size of my own stock rom's bootanimation :/ ). Either case, if you have a backup and make a mistake, you can always flash back, right? ;)

Odd thing is, I'm on the SGS4 Active, and when running bootanimation from this zip I get a cryptic "Cannot link executable" error, but I'm going to try it anyways to see. :) Wish me luck?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] remotehugger:
Yea sorry about the multi posts - couldn't get it all in one for some reason - sorry about that - but yea, I'll use just the bootanimation4u zip and see how it goes - I'm pretty sure that's what I did before I re-flashed my rom, bit not positive - thank you for the help - and good luck !!!!!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] androidmechanic:
This is what you need to do...

First make sure busybox is installed.

Second flash the bootsamsunganionly zip then the other one.

Reboot

Then you can put any bootanimation.zip into system/media and set permissions to rw-r-r.

Reboot and enjoy.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] remotehugger:
Will I also be able to flash bootani's in recovery as well this way ?

From my VM SG II w/ jdsingles' deodexed rom and agats' 1.4.2f kernel @ 1.4Mhz.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] androidmechanic:
If it used the traditional method of pushing the bootanimation.zip into system/media, then yes. Check out Rom Toolbox in the Play Store. There is really no need in flashing a bootani in recovery if you can extract the bootanimation.zip file itself and push it into system/media. I recommend using Root Explorer to set permissions when manually pushing files. Very easy to use.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] remotehugger:
OK cool - thank you for your help ! Much appreciated !

OLD PHONE EDIT: Ultimately I confirm your issue... as historically documented. Boot animation loops and never ends, it sounds/feels like android boots up normally behind it. Give it a minute and it plays shutdown audio and restarts...

This appears to be Droid Charge SCH-I510 friendly... just installed the zip that only pushes the samsungani bin. Off to the races...

Working from SCH-I510 on FP8 stock debloat, so far all the old boot ani stuff from FP5E TT TE interface seems to be working (without renaming the .zip too).
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] SupaKid:
Yo!

Don't know if anyone helped you already, but just in case, here's your answer!

Any custom bootanimation.zip file, including those Google Gears, must be renamed to 'bootanimation'.

So you would take the Gears-Bootanim.zip, and rename it to bootanimation.zip. It'll work then. Enjoy!

ALSO: can someone please provide an alternate link to the Bootanimation4U flashable? XDA won't let me view/download attachments for some reason.....
