Hello all,
it's possible to partially deodex my phone to add a custom Bootanimation? (Of course ".QMG" format)
If yes, what files I need to modify to work?
PS: I have already replaced the bootanimation of my odexed phone and as a result, the bootscreen went white during boot. No animation at all. There must be a file that I need to modify, but I don't know which...
Thanks

I've been trying to load a custom boot animation from Rom toolbox. Not having any luck. It has an install option that doesn't seem to work. I've gone into system media file and there are no signs of any bootanimation.zip. I've copied the custom ba into the system bin and replaced the existing file with it and all I managed to do was get a black screen rather than the stock ba. As far as I can tell I have full r/w permissions. Am I going about it wrong or is Rom toolboxes boot animation not compatible with inspire?
Thanks

After replacing bootanimation.zip are you changing permissions to R/W, R, R? Don't know if it's necessary, but I always do it that way and have never had a problem.
If you don't see bootanimation.zip in /system/media/, do you see it in /system/customize/resource? If so, put it here
Youre the man. I didn't even think to look in there. Thank you

Hi everyone noob alert. I'm using the donutHD 2.2.9 rom now i want to change the boot animation but do not know how to, is the anyone who has changed or is able to change it?
Can't find media folder in /system
Apparently, you can just put it in /data/local.
Hey guys.. so i'm running ViperXL 3.0 JB.. and i was searching to replace the bootanimation, and couldn't find a file named bootanimation.zip.. all i could find was HTC_bootup_one.zip and htc_downanimation.zip in system/customize/resource
so.. can anyone point it to me?
Also.. since i'm running JB from asia (ViperXL), is there a way to flash a mod to get the CTR Screen Off Animation?
thanks guys! appreciate it

That is indeed the boot animation file, unzip it and you can see the individual images.
The problem I ran into here was replacing it with a new boot animation of the same name somehow broke the startup animation altogether and all I got was the blue android animation, even after putting the original file back. I did a nand restore to get the original back and am now waiting for someone to figure out how to do this the right way or start making flashable zips.
I was doing this through es file explorer on viper xl 3.0. Did it the same way many times before on ice with no issues.

I set the system partition to write and then back to read once the files were moved, but I don't think I can change file permissions with es and I don't have root explorer. Eventually I will quit being lazy and try replacing the files through adb with proper permissions like I had to on my evo.

Hi guys. I have a Samsung GT-S7582 which has a carrier bootanimation or whatever you wanna call it. I want to remove it. I already have cwm recovery installed and it is rooted. The bootanimation files in /system/media are:
samsungbootloop.qmg
samsungboot.qmg
shutdown.qmg
I've tried downloading custom .qmg animation, renamed and moved them to the directory stated above, thereby overwriting the original .qmg files. Also tried simply moving the originals some place else then move the customized ones to the said directory.
The carrier's bootanimation is still showing, as well as the shutdown animation.
I also flashed a non-carrier stock ROM, but carrier animation is still there.
Does this mean the bootloader is locked? If it's locked, is there a way to unlock?
Does anyone know how to get the STOCK Sprint boot animation from a stock rom? I've looked on extracting things from our .tar files but nothing clear on boot animations. I just like the stock animation, but want to stay on MOAR.
Any help on how to get it, or if someone could create it, that would be just plain jane awesomesauce.
Thanks,
Mike
assuming the CSC is correct on your rom of choice. The files you are looking for are in /system/media and they are SPR_bootsamsungloop.qmg, SPR_bootsamsung.qmg, and SPR_Shutdown.qmg. Taking a stock tar wont work, find yourself a stock rom, (deodex is fine) and grab the files and replace them and make sure to set permissions and you should be fine.
