Here is a cool Bootanimation -- I don't know who I should give credit to. I extracted it from Galaxy Note - TeamRocket ROM.
I just modified some loops at the end and change the pixel resolution setting to 600x1024 for our G-Tab.
If anyone knows who we should give credit to please post.
Enjoy.
Note: Thanks to Sir Otto, we have a shorter version. Go to his post for download link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26798166&postcount=14
To change your bootanimation, you will need :
1. root access and Root Explorer, or CWM.
Method 1:
Simply go to /system/media, place the attached bootanimation.zip in the folder replacing the original one.
Note: Please don't forget to back up your old bootanimation just in case you don't like what you downloaded.
Method 2:
Flash zip file on 2nd post below (TronDroidBootanimation.zip) in CWM recovery mode.
Credits:
TeamRocket (Galaxy-Note ROM) -- I extracted from this rom.
ATGAdmin and Icy (Iconia A500) -- It w also the boot animation for his ROM
Sir Otto -- For editing it to make shorter version --Please hit the thanks button on his post!
CWM Flashable / Screenshots
Update: CWM flashable zip file; only work for non-stock ROM.
download below attached file to your sdcard,
reboot to CWM recovery,
flash the zip file,
Reboot.
Here are screenshots
This is very nice. Thanks!

Thanks
This looks very cool on the old tab 7
My pleasure, but again any of you guys know who we should give credit to this beautiful boot animation, please let us know.
Please share if you have or know any cool boot animation. Thanks.
your Neo-Droid boot animation is very nice, but I have to say I'm going with this one, the Tron-Biker. Sorry bro.
There was a guy in the acer a500 and asus transformer prime forums that had this boot animation on his roms. He goes by the name ATGAdmin. He had the icylicious roms for those devices. Not sure if he is still on xda due to some disagreements he had with other developers and the mods.

And what happened to him? I tracked him and he has not posted anything after 2nd of May. I can't post to any of his threads, and seems like whatever happened already deleted from the original thread.
Well there goes, at least partial credit (if it not the whole credit) goes to ATGAdmin and his Icylicious roms. Still not clear if he created the bootanimation or not but he used it about at the same time or a little earlier than TeamRocket for the Galaxy-NoteThanks for the info.
Excuse me, yappoe, but I found this boot animation quite long. Can I just remove some of the images in the zip folder in order to leave only the final part or would it cause terrible things like bricking my Galaxy Tab?
And if I manage to get it working, will you let me upload my "reduced" version here?

It's not going to get your Tab bricked, but it might make the bootanimation not functional (blank boot animation). Maybe Mr. Yappoe kind enough to release a shorter version.

Slyv3 is correct, it won't brick your Tab. At worst you will have blank animation. Yes you can post it here for the short version. Thanks.
Thank you, yappoe and slyv. I tried removing some images in the zip files and it worked.
Now unfortunately I have a slow connection, but I will upload it as soon as possible.

I have tested these 2 roms and it works 100% with CM9 ICS 4.04 and AOKP 4.04 but when I try copying bootanimation.zip using root explorer with root access to a stock 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 gingerbread rom, it gives me a message that there is not enough space to copy this file. I have noticed that the stock rom does not have a bootanimation.zip file. Advise please. thanks

Hi, in stock firmware, there won't be a bootanimation.zip. There will be "samsungbootloop.qmg".
If the original version is too big, can you try the shorter version by Sir Otto above and see if you can put it in?

This will add the ability to use a custom bootanimation on any rom with any kernel and probably any samsung device.
It has been tested on the Note II but should work with any samsung device that uses samsungani to load boot animations. If it doesn't work for you please post here.
Uses the typical settings bootanimation is at /system/media/bootanimation.zip, this is for those using a stock rom or a rom the dev didn't add it in.
I included the Google Gears bootanimation too. Flash the file in recovery. The attachment is a flashable zip not bootanimation.zip.
The updater-script uses busybox to mount the partitions, so if it doesn't flash correctly install busybox from an app on the play store then try again.
Edited the attachment, now includes the bootanimation binary just in case in bootanimation4u.zip, there is also another one named Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only that only edits samsungani.
If /system/bin/bootanimation exists flash the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip
How to use:
Add bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Flash Bootanimation4U.zip in recovery
If you want sound add an ogg file named PowerOn.ogg to /system/media/audio/ui, if sound doesn't work be sure /system/bin/samsungpowersoundplay exists if its there it will play sound if not its not included in your rom download it HERE then put it where it belongs and fix the perms which should be rwxr-xr-x
Reboot...Enjoy
Here is a method to get some bootanimations thanks to ReelFiles:
ReelFiles said:
Awesome!
1. Make a backup just in case.
2. Flash bootanimation4u.zip from recovery (I use TWRP).
3. Reboot and install Boot Animations Root from the Play Store.
4. Go into the app's preferences and change install location to /system/media/ and leave the default filename (bootanimation.zip) and go back to the main screen.
5. Select any bootanimation from the Server tab and hit Install. (Tablet ones at the bottom of the list look best.)
6. Select the installed bootanimation again and hit Resize. Set it to 720x1280 30FPS.
7. Tap the options key and select "Preview current" Make sure you like it and reboot.
I use the Tablet - Shatter one, it looks like the one from the Jedi Roms, but higher quality.
If you Preview a few different ones and then decide to use one you downloaded earlier, delete it first then install and resize it again, or the preview will just be a black screen and might not work at all.
I believe you can preview before installing the animation if you buy the Pro version.

No it only uses busybox to mount system to copy files. It makes it flashable on most devices without using specific blocks. Ie. Mmcblk0p13

Ok, so this will prevent the boot loop caused by adding bootanimation.zip's manually on samsung devices? (vzw gs3 running aosp).
Does the flash of your mod stick between rom flashes, or flash each time?
I don't thing it belongs to development, since the mod is already known and that's why i already posted something like this on General with both methods (manual and CWM)

Im on Jedi X 7.2. The Kernal is built in, but I believe it's called Sabre
samsungani and bootanimation both exist in system/bin
when it boots I get the note 2 splash screen and then just a black/blank screen till the phone boots up
Has anyone got this to work? Mine does nothing when I select it for current location. Weird.
Not sure either, I think it only animates when the weather is rain. Although there is a mod in the verizon dev forums that enables animation for all weather variants but I'm not sure if it works for ATT.

well despite the apparent dozens of threads I hadn't seen one, thanks for pointing me to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54487822&postcount=207
I just installed this and works a peach, I now have a sunshine animation, yay.
for those who are going to be confused by this, it's a flashable zip, which since we don't have a proper recovery, doesn't do us much good (although the fake recovery should be able to flash this, I haven't tried it)
you can open the zip and remove the apk and odex files and manually install them, reboot, and you'll be greeted with a lock screen animation for your weather. Tested and working.
Note: if you lock the screen before rebooting, systemui will continually crash
Yea I forgot to mention that you need to delete the odex and replace the apk with that one from the OP in that thread. That's the way I did it even with us having the recovery. Glad you got it working.

It's actually called LGKeyguard (why that is, I couldn't tell you). That is the correct .apk and .odex file, I just tested it out and it does work. I just renamed the 2 in /priv-app with a .bak extension (LGKeyguard.apk.bak for example) and moved the 2 new ones from the zip file into the folder. Just make sure to set the permissions the same as the rest of the files in the folder. Once you get the files in there, reboot and you should see the new animations.
When I download it, it only has the apk in the zip, not the odex. Are you leaving the original odex intact?

No, the one I downloaded had both the apk and the odex file. Make sure you download it from the post that specifies it's for the stock/odex ROMs, and not the one from his OP.

in theory it shouldn't matter, when you reboot if there's no odex it should make one, and if the odex is wrong in anyway it should remake it. so really as long as you get the apk in the right place with the right permissions and reboot all should be be fine ( the apk from the odex version, I think this might matter)
Worked great, thanks

Mine shows rain and thunder/lightning. However, once I ditched the stock weather widget (without freezing it uninstalling it), for "weather timeline" I lost the animations. Looks like you have to use the native weather widget for animations to work.

Doctor Who Boot/Shutdown animation for the LG G3 with sound!
WARNING
This is a disclaimer: While this has been tested I am not responsible for ANY damage done to your device. I take no responsibility for bootloops, soft bricks, hard bricks, living brick monsters, your phone proving an omnipotent being fallible(thus negating all existence), your great aunt smoking bath salts, flying monkeys, hot pockets, obamacare, dingleberries, carnivorous dingleberries or Sundays. Use at your own risk!!
Secondary disclaimer: If you have carnivorous dingleberries then you have bigger problems to worry about - but for any phone related questions feel free to message me on here either privately or in the thread.
This is my personal bootanimation for the Sprint LG G3 and I thought I would share it with any other Doctor Who fans out there. The original video is not my work, I simply did the leg work to turn it into a bootanimation. Doctor Who and the Tardis are registered trademarks of the BBC. If using the flashable zips, make sure you make a nandroid in TWRP before flashing these just in case. If you want to revert back to your original bootanimation you will have to restore your backup. I hope to make flashable stock zips eventually but until then, restoring your backup is your best option.
*NEW!* FLASHABLE ZIPS!!
Requires root access and TWRP recovery!
Google Drive
Download:LG G3 Bootanimation with sound!
Download:Sprint G3 Bootanimation with sound!
THESE FILES BELOW ARE NOT FLASHABLE ZIPS! Requires root access!! You have to manually put it into your system/media folder and change permissions(-rw-r--r-- aka 644). Also, you will want to delete your old boot animation(make a backup!). The G3 has two bootanimations on Sprint so if you have the same model I do you will want to replace both bootanimation.zip and bootanimation_sprint.zip(Just rename this file and have two copies in system/media). Then manually put Power_On.ogg(Sprint also has two copies of the boot sound so rename a copy of this to PowerOn_Sprint.ogg as well) into system/media/audio/ui for working sound! You ALSO need to either replace the files in carrier/cust/poweron or just delete that folder altogether(That's what I did).
For the shutdown animation it's the same. Replace shutdownanimation.zip(and shutdownanimation_sprint.zip if you are on sprint) and PowerOff.ogg(PowerOff_Sprint.ogg) to have a new shutdown animation with sound.
I believe At&t, Verizon and Tmobile would be easier but have no way of testing. If anyone wants to give detailed directions for the other carriers, it would be greatly appreciated.
Again, make sure you have backups of your original files saved to your computer. For me if something didnt work I would get a black screen but it would still boot. Other phones can soft brick but it looks like the G3 isn't one of em - still, better safe than sorry! I never ask for donations but if you like/use it, you could always hit that thank button!

TARDIS LOCK/UNLOCK SOUNDS!
Below you will find two flashable zip files - one to change your lock sounds to the Tardis, another to change them back to stock. As always my disclaimer is in full effect - make a nandroid backup in TWRP just in case. Simply reboot into TWRP recovery, make a nandroid backup, then install your chosen flashable zip and reboot.

You can search the root partition of your phone and see if those files are anywhere else, then replace them. I know they are in system/media/audio/ui and the carrier/cust/ folders.....I can't remember if they were in system media with the bootanimations as well......
As long as they are in the right places with the right permissions they should work.
Sorry btw, I just saw this.
EDIT: Just realized this was the one I posted in the general forum. I'm on Sprint so I'm not sure where the other carrier's boot sounds are. If you find out which ones they are and what they are named exactly, let me know so I can update the OP.
You're a hero. I just got 2 people to drop their plans to get an Iphone 6 when they saw my phone turn on. Thanks a bunch!

3)Copy themed apk to proper folder, and set permissions to rw-r-r
4)reboot
If you have any issues you can just delete the themed apk then delete the .bak from the original and you will be back to stock.
Hope you enjoy it.

Cool theme. Don't know if you would be interested in or if you have already made a boot animation. But if you haven't, here is one with the Joker boot animation. If you want to test on NG2, I am still on NAE. But I don't know why it wouldn't work. It is on pg.70 and 71. If you don't like it I can delete this post.

Awesome, it looked good. I will test today. If want to try the theme, I'd love to have someone test it on the NAE. If you use the 2nd installation instructions, you can test a single apk before flashing.

Tried the SecPhone apk, did not work. Set permission, rebooted was still the same. No big deal, just wanted to try for you to see if it would on NAE. Don't really want an all theme batman, but I do think it is cool. Hopefully the boot animation works on the NG2 for you, please let me know if does or doesn't. It would/will be really cool for you to have Joker boot and batman theme :good:

I'm sorry it didn't, was going to show my nephews they would have thought it was cool, so that kinda sucks that I can't.

I tried it today. For some reason they shutdown animation works, but not the boot. I even renamed and flashed for sprint specific boot animation

I just flashed the Joker boot, everything worked start up boot and shutdown boot. Did you go into root explorer to system> media and do bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg.bak and same with bootsamsungloop.qmg to bootsamsungloop.qmg.bak ? This is what I did.
Don't know if that will make a difference or not.
Didn't have to rename or do that sprint specific boot animation.
I am on Odexed (mostly stock) Super S4 1.5 by at g_ding84 and still on bootloader MF9.

I'll rename them then copy and paste them instead of flashing it. See if that works.

It didn't. And what is weird is that after naming them to .bak , the stock animation still works.

If you did just the Sec Phone.apk, you would still have the stock phone. The dialer is in SecContacts.apk. The phone apk handles everything after the call is made.

Ok, I will try again later today.

I went through today and kept changing the boot animations to .baking until I didn't have any boot animation. My phone was using the XAS_bootanimation. I don't even know what carrier that is. But it is working now.

Did the SecContacts_OSup.apk, it worked [emoji2] But when I push on the contact pic to get to their info, it goes black and goes back to home page. Maybe it's because I need to do all your theme.?
It's cool that the bat icon shows when you push on the numbers [emoji106].
I might leave it this way till I get to show my nephews.
Edit: Glad you got it going [emoji41] [emoji106]

You don't have to do the whole theme, but SecPhone/SecContacts work together. Having them both might help, or it might just be a little buggy on NAE. Try them together.
Now that I got the boot animation working I changed the boot sound. (It plays Batman Ridin') If you want to try it I attached it. unzip, copy the .ogg and paste it in system/media/audio/ui. It is not a flashable zip.

Tried the sound it worked. Did the SecPhone.apk with the SecContacts_OSup.apk it didn't help. In superfriends sliding to call made the android process stop working, also dialing did same thing. Deleted it and was able to call out again, it also let's me get to text messaging by sliding, does everything except for getting to contact info. The contact pics are still there, plus on the ones that don't have pics with phone #'s show what you did. Noticed in my goggle account everything had synced except for people details. Sorry I'm not on NG2 to actually tell you if things work or not. I'm glad I can show off your work on the SecContacts_OSup.apk. and the sound.
