[Boot Animation] Nexus Prime Official adjusted for the Note

Didn't notice anyone's uploaded this for the Note so here it is. I just adjusted the leak boot animation from this thread to fit the fullscreen of the Note (instead of 720x1280 of the Prime). Check the thread to see a low-quality preview of how the boot animation looks like
Credits go to febycv
YOUR NOTE MUST HAVE ROOT (and CWM) TO USE THIS Get both from the CF ROOT thread or any kernel with CWM.
Instructions (modified from febycv's thread):
1. Download the required file to your sdcard
2. Use root explorer or equivalent to go to /data/local and place the bootanimation.zip there (if it doesn't work, try /system/media/).
4. Reboot
Download Here
EDIT: To get rid of / replace the Power On sound, delete/rename/replace /system/etc/1_Power_On.ogg (or something similar). The Power Off sound file is also in the same folder...

Thanks.
It works like a charm.

i dont kbow why. But i placed the file in data/local . But it didnt change anything. Hmm

You could try just placing it under /system/media/ also.

Brilliant can't wait to try it out when I go home.

Thanks!!It work very well!!

And it looks beautiful, worked just by placing it in /data/local.
Thanking you very much.

i have the hong kong 2.3.6 and it threw me into bootloop

Thks. Will try.

WOW, thanks!
I put it under /system/media/

works great...thanks

Thanks!!Good job!!

Hmm, did you have a CWM kernel installed? I think it only works nicely if you do.

where I could find the Poweron sound?

Lost the boot animation after flashing KKA firmware. Tried /data/local and system/media to no avail. Any other ideas?

Worked as described! Thanks!

You need to have a kernel with CWM to use this without flashing. You would have lost that when you flashed the (stock) KKA firmware. Get the latest CFRoot KKA kernel from Chainfire's thread

Great !!!
Just changed my bootanimation - put it into: data/local -> workes fine !
THX very much !

Hi All
I downloaded the boot animation, its folder on my mac after the download and when i transfer it on my note, it says boot animation.zip
I took this and pasted it in the local folder, nothing happened... then i pasted it in media and still nothing happens !!!
I sure that the boot animation for my note is in the media folder since i can see many things in that folder and there is nothing in the local folder...
I am on the KKA firmware with the CF-rooted kernel which i downloaded from the chain fire's thread and its perfectly installed
But till now I have not been able to make this work...
Is there step i am missing??? do i need to tale some files out of the boot animation.zip and place it in the folders or just download the .zip from this thread and then move it to the folder on my note?? (this what i have been doing till now)

[MOD][bootanim] ICS-like boot animation (requires my 20120105 kernel or better)

I put it in the title, and I'll put it here again because I KNOW someone will ask (or do worse)
THIS BOOT ANIMATION WILL ONLY WORK ON THE P6210 WITH KERNELS THAT SUPPORT BOOT ANIMATIONS. THAT CURRENTLY ONLY INCLUDES MY KERNEL FOR THE P6210 WITH A VERSION GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO 20120105.
I wonder how many people will ignore that and install it on the 20120102 version (which, honestly, will amuse me quite a bit as it'll have an interesting result.)
Credit where credit is due: The actual boot animation was modified from the animation provided in UnNamed 1.x for the AT&T SGSII by gtg465x. All I did was rotate all the images, tweak the dimensions of the control file, and stick it into a recovery installable update.zip file.
How to install:
Download it. Put it on your device. Boot into recovery and install .zip file from sdcard (or internal sdcard if you put it on the microSD.)
This is completely unsupported... it's only meant as a sample and proof of concept for the boot anims.
This post has a link to a youtube showing the boot anim: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21101682&postcount=8
Take care
Gary

Rock On dude! can someone post a teaser video! thanks garyd!!
dont know if this also removes boot up sound,
in case anyone cant figure it out it should be /system/etc/poweron.wav, you can play the .wav first to verify, if so rather than delete it just rename to backuppoweron.wav
cheers!

by the way i found a way how to change the bootanimation on my galaxy mini :
1. delete the 'bootanimation' located in /system/bin (better to backup)
2. then copy and rename 'samsungani' to 'bootanimation'
3. then delete (backup) the bootani.qmg located in /system/media
4. copy the bootanimation.zip file to /system/media
and, i tried this on my gtab 7+ p6200.
but on step 3, in /system/media there are bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg. i don't know which file to delete/replace.
is the bootsamsungloop.qmg ?
can someone help me?

how come that Gtab7+ doesn't support the bootanimation ? if we got samsung bootanimation means it can support any bootanim i guess. or whatcha you think ?

ive tried this method with renaming both of these files, bootanimation finishes and lockscreen/homescreen come up but bootanimation is frozen stuck covering the top 60% of screen.

I've got this already up and going on my tab with the stock ICS boot animation. Did it late last night. Didn't use this boot animation, modified my own from my galaxy s2.
I'll post a video today on how it looks. Much better than stock.
Thanks Gary.

Normally there is a power on audio file in /system/media/audio/ui but I can't see one.
Power off is in there though
EDIT found it!
/etc/1power_on.ogg
Delete that and bye bye boot up sound

Same here. its system/etc/1_poweron.ogg just renamed mine with root explorer.

This mod is only a "proof of concept" to demonstrate the changing of the boot animation using the kernel I posted in another thread. The boot sound is unrelated to the boot animation from the kernel point of view. Normally, the boot animation and/or sound would be changed by firmware developers.

Because Samsung insists on using their own wacky bootanimation binary and format.
So you need to either:
1) Replace the binary (manual effort, no "fallback" if no bootanim is present)
2) Add a script to the kernel initramfs that uses "standard" bootanim support if you have one present, and Samsung's as a fallback.

TronBike bootanimation for Droid Charge?

Anybody have or know where to get "Tron Bike" boot animation for droid Charge??
http://rootzwiki.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=search&fromMainBar=1
I love this.
Here is the instruction from cliMAKtic:
*To make this work you must be rooted, AND you must have a supporting kernel (i.e. PB&J by IMNUTS)
1. You need to go here: http://bit.ly/pJ1znp and download the zip file which will contain two other zip files, one animation for landscape and one animation for portrait.
**You can watch both previews here (they are only slightly different): http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7344-boot...-like-android/
2. Extract one of the inner zip files (or both) and put them on your sd card.
3. Rename the one you want to sanim.zip, and use a file explorer app (I use Root explorer -it's awesome), to copy the renamed "sanim.zip" from your sd-card to the /system/media folder on your phone.
4. Reboot and Ta Da
Thanks

You copy the image files into the bootanimation folder...

So I found it in zip here:
http://gunnermike53.com/Themers/jaekar99/Galaxy-Nexus/TronBikeLr4-Nex.zip
I couldn't find a flash file so you'll have to rename it and push the file. I'm doin' it now..

Yes that's is correct.
They have 2 versions: one for vertical screen, which the video is kind of square and not fit the screen. The one that you posted is for the landscape version which fit the screen perfectly. Also the ending of the vertical screen is different than the landscape one. The vertical ending is with the word "galaxy nexus" goes from small to large and stay large. The landscape ending is the word "galaxy nexus" on top of a green android image and light shadow around it (very cool looking). So I combined both ending together. The landscape ending then ended with the vertical ending. By the time the vertical ending is done, my phone boot right into to OS. I don't think it's going to work straight out of the box. I have to recompile this thing to make it works.

khalilcr said:

Click to collapse
To add sound on boot, you need a .wav file, you need to rename said .wav file to PowerOn.wav, and you need to put it in /System/Etc on your phone. I ripped the audio file that goes along with this boot animation and converted it/renamed it yadda yadda which I could give you if you really want, it is also available on that link I posted earlier in some format.
HOWEVER, there is still the problem of boot sounds getting cut off after about 9 seconds, leaving about 4-5 seconds of the animation without sound DEPENDING on what Rom you are running [I know Khali was able to get it working for the full length so if you are running TweakStock 1.4 you should be all set]. As for my InfinityRom I'm sure there is some xml editing that could be done to extend the sound for any given Rom but I am not sure what it is yet, I am looking into it..
If you wanted to put a shortened PowerOn.wav file on your phone that would only play for a portion of the animation that would work just fine (might look a little stupid though ).
**Again TweakStock 1.4 should NOT cut your sound short.

[Q] How to change Bootanimation in Kyrillo's ROM v10.4

Hey, I'd like to know how to change the bootanimation in Kyrillo's ROM as ive already tried BootAni and some other apps and even tried manually changing the Bootanimation in "data" and "system/media"...didnt work.... it'd be great if i could get some help and if possible in a step by step manner...

1. Find a suitable replacement in bootanimation.zip format.
2.check to make sure this isnt an update zip. (do this by exploring the file, it should consist of only files names "part0" and "desc.txt" and maybe "part1")
3.If it is a update zip, unzip it and extract the bootanimationzip inside it.
4. place this onto sd card
5. use root explorer or similar to move the file to system/media, making sure it is named "bootanimation.zip" it should say something like "file exists, replace it?". say yes.
6. now long press the new file and open up permissions in the menu. set these as rw-r--r--
7. reboot phone and enjoy!
bear in mind that kyrillos 10.4 is based on open fimg, so you may have white patched in the boot animation, just like the one preloaded onto it.

In 10.4, Kyrillos has fixed the white patches in SOME bootanimation, like the stock one.

On an extra note:
If you want to avoid having white flashes in your bootanimations on any rom with openFIMG you should look for one with less than 75 frames in the part1 folder. Any frames past that turn white...

Tried didnt work!!....

[ROOT] [HD 10] Customize your boot animation

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...

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 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.

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.

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.

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:
