With permission from the very gifted grafix man TonicAcid from the vibrant Forum. Here are some already made Boot/Shutdown animations.
Plus a tutorial to help create your own

Understand that these files are set up to be flashed with CWM which we do not have. They have to be Non- flashable and moved using Root Explorer or similar app.
I am awaiting a reply from TonicAcid that will tell me what needs to be removed from CWM version to make them work right for us.
(Edit) confirmed: we can pull the bootanimation file from the flashable files and push them with root explorer or something that does the samething.
If you create any Non-Flashable Boots post them for others if you like:
Awesome, I found quite a few I like here

try and check the droid forums, someone may have posted the dump for device which may include the bootup animations.

so all you have to do is just rename it to bootanimation.zip and push it to system/data?

Yep that's all you gotta do. Make sure you delete the samsungboot and the samsungbootloop files in /system/media

Hmmmmm... i'm having issues here.
I had these running with 2.1uv kernel, but now with 3.1uv they don't want to take.
deodexed KD1
3.1uv kernel
removed the boot and bootloop samsung files, copied the bootanimation.zip to /system/media and i get no animation at all....
used to work when i was running 2.1uv. the original galaxy s animations work fine, but not bootanimation.zip...
any advice?
I use an app called bootanimation utility and it works fine.
You can import your own, or choose from some downloads. I currently have a cm7 one.

then you're pushing it to the wrong place. you place bootanimation.zip to system/media. shutdown sound goes in system/media/audo/ui. shutdown folder goes in system/media/video.

I've already did that sir. But still it is blank screen for my bootanimation. What else I can do?

hmm....so....
you downloaded an animation from this link, right?:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053250
when you download the file, it comes in a zip file. open the zip file and you should notice a system folder. open that system folder and open the media folder within it. you should see a bootanimation.zip. that file is the one you are copying to system/media on your phone, right?
i know some people simply download the file and rename it to bootanimation.zip. they are actually renaming the cwm flashable file and not pushing the correct zip. you do not have to rename anything during this process. i would say to try and flash it, but for some reason, it never works for me, but you are more than welcome to try and flash it yourself. the above method is just in case that doesnt work.
Im having trouble getting audio for my boot animation to work (not sure what to name it or where to place) . Boot animation works just cant get sound, tryed moving it to the etc folder and audio folder. Would some1 please help me out or send me in the right direction. And yes I did search on this but seem different from phone to phone.thanks in advance for any help.

What version are you running?
Fully stock?
Kd1?
Kc1?
If your running kd1 your going to have to look in sgs4g/development thread, well same for kc1
If your running any other version than I'm sure you will have to reflash your phone with the boot animation kernel(make sure it's for sgs4g not any other phone model)

I have stock KB5 and I have flashed the bootanimation kernal. I have not flashed anything else. Everything is great except no sounds on the boot up screen.

Try using sgs tools from the market it helps put your boot up and shut down sounds in the right folders just make sure you have the sounds in your root folder in your sd card
A lot of people have tried just pushing the sound files in their respected folders and just doing it over and over til it works.
But for kb5 boot up sound should be in system/etc(should be in .wav format)
For shut down sound it should be in system/media/ui (should be in .ogg format)
Oh for kb5 you can go to the development section and there is a thread for boot animation file called modd5 or something, that could help you
Hope that helps

I use SGS Tools also, you have to apply it twice till it reboots your device. I used it on KB5 before and now use it on KC1. I cannot confirm it on KD1 because im still on KC1.
note: GdofWr420 you have to use the above formats for it to work. Convert MP3 to .ogg and .wav using appropriate program.
Thanks fknfocused for the info. I went ahead and flashed the deodexed KD1 and im in the process of trying again. now no bootanimation at all just on shutdown cause all I had to do was swap .png files. Ill let yall know.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Kd1 is not going to let you boot up animation the files are different, well as I understand it.also the boot up sound is in a different format too, we will have to figure out how to change that.
So far I have no luck.
Kb5,kc1 is good to modbut kd1i have no luck

I recall krylon360 saying new .zips. need too be in edify format or something to that affect. I just get the black screen bootup now not a big deal. I am however going to see about edifying script maybe we just have to alter old bootanimation.zip slightly.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I can confirm that SGS tools will work for the bootup sounds on KD1. Haven't checked the shutdown sounds yet.
Now that I'm on KD1 my boot animation does not come up. Tryed flashing edifyed version of bootanimation but didn't take and installation was aborted.

Okay so I see what is has happened with the 4g/update and its nothing you all don't know.
1st off even if you do white's kd1 deodexed the boot up audio has changed/dissappeared to a .sng or something file but if you add a powron.wav file to system/etc. It will boot up with that audio
2nd shut down animation is still the same just push the .png files to the system/media/video folder and your golden
3rd building a mod might take some time for. Zip files to work but for now only .qmg files will work for boot up animation
Sorry if you already knew this

changing bootanimation requires a modded kernel. if you're running KD1 bootanimation.zip will not work. unless you know how to convert bootanimation.zip to a .qmg file.

Do you convert the whole zip or files inside the zip?
SGS4G running WHITEHAWKX KD1,TW4.0,
and FKNFOCUSED modded notification bar. rockin CWM3 BETA.now with BALI KERNEL COURTESY OF DRHONK
You pretty much have to convert the files in the .Zip but also have to mod the kernal to read the .zip
If you just convert the .zip then you wont need the .zip anymore,basically the files in the zip will be combined into a .qmg
Which I don't know how to do =P
If that made sense

Been trying to make my own and I keep getting a black screen only. I'm not sure if it's the png files I'm winding up with, or my desc.txt but it's not really working for me. I know that my kernel supports bootanimation.zip, I've tested this with the angry android one, so it's not that there's no support.
HELP! Thanks in advance.
Can u tell me which kernel are u using mine doesnt work with boot animation
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I'm using Bali 2.1 UV. It's had bootanimation support since its first release for the SGS though. I doubt you'd get that working with any stock kernel
Search this very forum for a thread started by bl4ckphenix about boot animations.
It's one of the older threads, back in the kb5 days, when all we had was krylon's kernel for it.

Moving to Q&A
I asked this question a while back but no one answered me.

this should be the correct one but let me know if it's not. Change the name of that file to bootanimation.zip and then with root explorer move it to system/media.

How.does.one go about changing the boot animations on the skyrocket?
On my last device (atrix ) it was as simple as dropping your bootanimation.zip in /system/media and rebooting.
Will someone please enlighten me here?

I see that custom kernels have custom animations. Surely someone around here knows.

you are rite its system>media and paste it there. But the file name should be sanim.zip unless u are using cm7.
Thanks appdroid. I looked in /system/media again and all I see area bunch of .qmg files
The only relevant one I see is bootsamsung.qmg
I'm confused since I don't see sanim.zip
I'm using faux.kernel which has a custom boot animation so wouldn't I see sanim.zip there??
I'm on quickwiz rom btw but it was the same on stock
Edit....
NM it worked! Thx appdroid

Faux Kernel supports custom bootanimation, which means if you go and download a bootanimation from somewhere, rename it sanim.zip, and put it in system/media then your skyrocket will boot with that animation.
Will this kernel support changing boot animation?
Hey appdroid,
After reading a ton of your posts re: rooting guides, I upgraded to ICS and rooted my skyrocket. THANKS A MILLION!! BTW, I'm a very green noob, so...
Anyhow,
My kernel says: 3.0.8-perf-i727UCALC4-CL240689 [email protected] #1
Do not have any idea what exactly that means, but I rooted using CWM and superuser.
I would love to get rid of the AT&T boot animation. I downloaded ES File Explorer and am unable to find the media folder?
Off the top of your head, will my kernel supposrt changing the boot animation
and
What am I missing re: file manager finding the media folder?
Thanks
kinda on topic here, does the skyrocket have the att bootloader and kernel splashes like the cappy did? i ask because i just ordered a skyrocket and want to do as much research as possible and felt like piggy backing off his post since my question isnt worthy of its own thread lol.

You can change the bootanimation if you have flashed mohan or romracers ics kernel.
And my kernel info says the same(im on romracer) but romracers kernel is basically stock with a few tweaks so make sure you flash kernel before trying

Yes it does but its easily changed. I usually just find a bootanimation that is cwm flashable. Thats the easy way for me. As i said before one of the two kernels need to be flashed
