i was just wondering if anyone knew how to change the shutdown animation on an inspire. i was able to change the boot animation but i tried the same method with the shutdown one and was unsuccessful .
I'd like to know this as well. I was just thinking about it last night.
I can't find where to place the .png
I am actually working on one right now. It is pretty much the same concept as a bootanimation.
if you figure it out, be sure to post it.
It's called downanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource. See this thread for more information as well as Shutdown animations.
Try using root explorer, replace the file /data/local/downanimation.zip and set the permissions rw-r--r--
It worked for me.
I am trying to enable the boot animation on my One Touch Evolve. I have located the bootanimation.zip (custpack/JDR_custres/media), but the animation never happens when I start the phone. Is there something I need to add to the build.prop to get it going? I am running Android 4.1.2
The same for shut down...the animation file is there, but I see no animation.
I even tried putting the bootanimation.zip in the /system/media folder...doesn't work either...
boooooot animation
if your are rooted goto system\media\paste your zip file as bootanimation.zip
and reboot enjoy

Thanks for the reply...yes, I'm rooted, but that didn't work either. Is there something with the permissions maybe? When I first got the phone, the original boot animation didn't even work. That's why I was wondering if there was something in the build.prop that told it not to, or maybe there is a line I can add?
It's pretty straight forward about how to change boot animation on the OPO and other android phones. Done it on the OPO's we have and G3. Animations and boot sounds play on G3, but only boot animation on OPO's. The boot sound will not play on the OPOs. I'm using the same sound file, PowerOn.ogg, for the G3 and OnePlus.
I've read many other posts, and specifically one where the boot animation creator put the PowerOn.ogg file into system/sounds and or system/sounds/poweron On my OPO's, stock 44s rooted, the system/sound directory did not exist, so I created it and those placements do not work. Permissions of the directories are correct. I've tried using the same directory as the G3, system/media/audio/ui, and permissions to 644. Does not work.
Can someone please advise where to put the sound file/how to get it going?
Thank you.
When I go into system/bin all I had was 1 bootanimation file that I renamed to bootanimation.off2 and then I tried flashing my boot animation butt it's just black after the boot logo, any suggestions please, system/media has alot of files, but now I have in-system Ben a boot Checker that appeared out of nowhere it's a file in his right next to the bootanimation file I renamed to bootanimation.off2

I think you deal with wrong folder.
Boot animation is in system/ media
Name is bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg
Shut animation is shutdown.qmg
No touch in bin.
Which boot animation you want to flash?

You should know diffwrent about boot logo (splash screen) which dark bg and write samsung galaxy ....
If you want to change this you need to search for original splash flash zip because after change it . It can only change back by flash original one. It not change though you change rom or factory reset.
Boot animation is easier to change. Just go to thread that share boot animation downliad flash zip and flash it. If you nandroid backup your rom first , you can always restore . Or you may copy original qmg file to somewhere.

I finally figured out what was stopping a custom boot animation from being installed onto the HD 10 running stock FireOS. This guide will show you how to replace the boot animation, to just about anything you want. For reference, we are using my favorite Android boot animation from Marshmallow, but there is Lollipop boot animation as well. You need to be rooted in order to complete this guide.
****THIS MAY NOT WORK FOR YOUR TABLET. RESULTS CAN VARY. YOU ARE PERFORMING THIS GUIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK. WORST CASE SCENERIO: NO BOOT ANIMATION (MUST REFLASH YOUR CURRENT VERSION OF FIRE OS TO RESTORE IT)****
1. Download the Marshmallow boot animation zip from this thread (1080p is perfect) to your internal storage. Using a root explorer, open the zip file and tap system then media and extract 'bootanimation.zip' to your internal storage.
2. Download 'bootanimation.zip' at the end of this post and extract the 'bootanimation' file to your desktop PC or the internal storage of your tablet. (THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP FILE)
3. Again, using a root explorer, navigate to /system/bin and make a copy the 'bootanimation' file and back it up to a folder in your storage. Now copy the 'bootanimation' file you downloaded in step 2 and paste it in /system/bin, overwriting the existing one. Make sure to set the permissions of the file to rwxr-xr-x
4. Using a root explorer again, go back to your internal storage and copy the 'bootanimation.zip' you extracted earlier in step 1. Then navigate to /system/media and paste 'bootanimation.zip'. Set the permissions to rw-r--r--
5. Reboot and watch your animation. See video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lmNGAn_YIY
HOW?
The answer was in /system/bin. Amazon modified the 'bootanimation' file in /system/bin so only their boot animation is the one used. If you had only placed the zip in /system/media, the animation would animate for a few seconds, freeze and just before the end of booting, would start to animate again. I tried portrait and landscape. I tried different resolutions. I tried different animations and every one of the animations would freeze. I opened up the ROM for the Fire 7 (Fire Nexus ROM by @ggow) and copied the 'bootanimation' file from /system/bin over to the stock FireOS ROM on the HD 10, and set the proper permissions. Problem solved!
Updates:
January 11, 2019: The bootanimation-STOCK.zip attached below, contains the stock FireOS bootanimation. Simply delete the bootanimation.zip in /system/media (if there is one). Extract/unzip the bootanimation-STOCK.zip into internal storage and copy/paste the bootanimation file to /system/bin, overwriting the one there.
Awesome post, as always, Mr. DragonFire1024
Heads up. If you simply overwrite the file in /system/bin with the bootanimation file (not the zip) and reboot, you get a surprise. I don't want to ruin it With that said, if someone could extend that animation a little...
Wonder if we can use the Oreo Boot animation I'm using for my Moto G4??

Should be able to copy the .zip from /system/media to the same folder on the HD 10. The worst that can happen is it won't work (but won't break anything. You may get a black screen until the booting finishes) or the graphics will be too small.
Edit: still need to overwrite the bootanimation file in system/bin no matter what animation you want to use. It just needs to be done once

I Just wanted to report back and let you guys know that the Custom Oreo Boot Animation works Perfectly for FireHD10. I used the 1440p Resolution file from here https://www.yourtechnocrat.com/download-android-o-oreo-bootanimation-on-any-android/

I just tested that out. Thanks for the info! Works great.
I cannot, regardless of what I do, get this to work.
I have followed the instructions - exactly - multiple times now.
I have tried numerous bootanimation.zip, including the one linked to in OP.
Files are in the proper locations, file permissions are set as specified.
It doesn't matter if I have the zip in /system/media or not, I get a black screen until UI loads.
Power on --> amazon logo --> black screen --> UI, no matter what I seem to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is driving me nuts, I just don't understand what I'm missing or doing wrong.

Yeah, I followed all the directions and still cant get it to work nor can I get the original boot animation to work.

I can't either. I tried after reading your comment.
No zip in /media, restored bootanimation in /bin to the original, still just a black screen during boot.
So this broke the bootanimation altogether.
Edit: I will add that my stock OS was 5.6.0.1. I suspect something has changed from previous versions, what was your stock version? What was OP's?

You have to place the bootanimation.zip in /system/media after overwriting the file in /system/bin. Unzip the animation in the link in OP. There will be another zip inside it. that's the zip you use.

Yeah I follow, and I did so several times. I can't even revert to having the stock "fire" boot animation.
Following the guide effectively broke my boot animation altogether. Again, I cannot even go back to having the original boot animation. Same thing the guy who replied after me reported as well.

Make sure the permissions are set correctly. .bin file: rwxr-xr-x and the .zip: rw-r--r--

Yes, I have, numerous times. As I have said.
I'm going to flash my system.img backup and see if that restores the stock boot animation, because nothing else has.
Edit: dd-ing my system.img of my post-root supersu backup restored my boot animation to stock.
Final Edit/Update:
Confirming that this does indeed work. I'm not sure what exactly I did the first time, but it completely botched the boot animation.
dd'd system.img (I had other compelling reasons to anyway), followed the instructions again, exactly as they are written.
I didn't even extract the zip on PC and then push, I did it all in ES.
The first time I did this I think I had some sort of permission issues (had to delete bootanimation and then paste the replacement, couldn't overwrite), and I suspect that combined with a little user error ruined boot animation. Anyway, thank you for the guide @DragonFire1024. This is a little thing, but completely worth it, imo.

Very strange but glad it worked. You can now have just about any boot animation you can find. Simply replace the zip in /system/media, give permissions, reboot. Just make sure to have the right resolution ?

I still have no idea where I messed it up. It seems like ES wasn't actually in Root Explorer, it showed the permissions as being set, but they definitely weren't.
Was weird that I could delete then paste bootanimation in /bin but not overwrite.
Of course, right after I got this working I used a boot animation that wasn't the right resolution.
I thought 1440p would just look better, not give me a bootloop
I've spent way too much time on merely changing the boot animation. :laugh:
