Does anyone have the stock android boot animation zip file? The one I'm talking about is the one that says "android" with the glow that goes from left to right. I can't see to find it anywhere. I'm guessing the one I need has to be optimized for tablets.
Thanks!
Edit: Never mind, this thread can be deleted.

I know that the thread is around somewhere but i can't seem to find it, but i really fancy putting that bootanimation of the android hitting the apple sign or maybe another boot animation but have no idea of how to go about replacing the original galaxy s animation with it. Any help would be grateful
Hey xda community I have been messing with my rooted and romed epic 4g I just attempted to flash the nexus s shutdown and startup boot animations. I know samsung has their own special format so the animations shouldn't work. I am confused because the shutdown animation does work but I can't get the boot animation to work. Can somebody explain why the shutdown works when the bootup doesn't?
Custom boot animations only work with a modified kernel. Samsung uses a proprietary file in stock ROM's for the animation. As far as I know, no one has access to the software to modify them. So as a work-a-round dev's started mod'ing the kernels to allow a series of .png files to be played at a specified frame rate to create custom animations.
The shut-down animation format is the same on stock and cooked ROM's and doesn't rely on a modified kernel to work. It is also comprised of a series of .png files, the same as a custom animation. There is, however no way to control the frame rate that it plays at, or to tell it to loop.
So, after all of that there, the straight up answer to your question is...if you're running a ROM that has a stock kernel then the custom boot ani won't work, but the shut-down will!
Oh, and by the way, you posted this in the wrong forum. It should be in "General".
thank you so much i was just confused and sorry about it being in the wrong forum. oops
Please post questions in General section.
I just did the 4.010 update and rebooted and so far (aside of netflix STILL not working) its pretty sweet. I was wondering If however anybody could rip the animation from the OEM recovery. I noticed it when I did a reboot how it had the android with the gears and thought it would make a far better boot animation... Any asist would be both welcome and appreciated.
aside form me not understanding your post at first. (i think i get it now) i think this belongs in themes and apps as that is where most of the boot animations are.
Love to see a shot of that bootanime.

you never see it ?
if you put the full 4.010.22 file as update and launch recovery you will get this nice animation
green lined android bot with gear moving inside him...
I wonder where are those animation.
like the one on the samsung galaxy triggering at the shutdown.
Ya, no I've never seen it.
If you find something on the web showing it, can you link me?
This is not a normal bootanimation. Seems the recovery does the work of actually animating the files.
Here are the images though.

I can probably make a bootanime out of that. Thanks for the link.
Okay here is my take on that recovery animation:

Hope it works for you.
I have been looking for a while so if there is a solved thread a link would be helpful vs scolding
I am trying to create a custom boot animation for my new G2 from scratch (themed for work) and I have been able to look at the stock animation files so I thought I imitated the files pretty good but now when I boot the phone the animation is just blank.
If I put the stock animation file back the boot animation stays blank. Im not upset about it as I like blank vs the stupid verizon one but really would like the get the custom boot animation working.
I am rooted and use root browser. I was able to change the one on my galaxy s4 with no problems just by replacing the files but this one has me stumped as it has even blocked the stock boot.
Thanks for any help in advance.
I understand that the G2 has a different method of how the boot animations are presented, I have been looking around for boot animations but none work due to the quick case animation settings?
Does anyone have any animations that would work with stock (rooted)?
As far as I know, the bootanimation on lollipop (for me its D802 leaked vodafone) is located at /system/media/bootanimation.zip and for shutdown animation it is /system/media/shutdownanimation.zip
Both zips contain serval .pngs and thats it.
Should be like on AOSP.

It doesn’t work like it does on my Nexus 5, I found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmob...d-5-0-t2961808 but am not really understanding the process or why it is different. I have tried different boot animations the way you described, changing the permissions to 644, placing it in the right folder, etc. all to no avail. Every attempt leads to the LG logo right to the home screen after a screen flash.
I also tried several bootanimations and i noticed that for me the problem is that on almost every boot i get "Android is upgrading" popup which is blocking bootanimation, i don't even see stock one when popup is up.
I installed the G Flex boot and Shutdown animation from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/themes-apps/mods-lollimods-lg-g2-official-based-t3036565
Manually, and it works like a charme

The link came truncated. I believe you refer to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/themes-apps/bootanimation-proper-android-5-0-t2961808
