[Q] Help please! Is it possible to change the boot splash screen? - Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps

This is unbelievable but I've just been from one end of the internet to the other (even used Bing!) and can't find anything at all about how to change the splash screen on the n9005.
Anyone here knows anything about it?
Is it simply an image file (like in the S2) that can be replaced? if so, anybody knows the path? file name?
or is it encoded into the kernel?
I'm lost!
Please help?

Try searching for 'boot animation'.. you'll find lots

I think he's referring to the splash screen which reads 'Samsung Galaxy Note 3' with the model number below.

Well, you can't change that.. it is embded in the chip. No software can change it

On my Sony Xperia Arc S, the splash screen was part of the kernel and could easily be edited. Unfortunately I am not aware how the system is on Samsung phones.

I have been trying this since 2 years back using my S3, but failed. In previous version of Samsung devices it was pretty easier as the developers came out with an app to mod your splash screen. By they way, the splash screens are in qmg format. In current devices, its not possible. In fact I tried asking one of the developers to mod the splash screen and the rejected my request as it can cause your device to be dead(sorry I couldn't figure out any better term ). Its a risky, impossible process

Hi, it is possible to create your own animations to boot from a zip file.
For this you must look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/how-to-create-qmg-boot-animations-t2217795
For your information the file you are looking for is in the system folder / media / shutdown.qmg
You can either create bootanimations that splash screen with the software.
I hope that this will help a little

He is not referring to bootanimations, he is referring to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SPLASH screen.

Oh sorry I'm a little tired :silly:

splash screen...
Thanks for the replies guys.
So, no one actually knows for sure where this image is hiding?
My guess is that is is encoded in the kernel (and then can be modified by compiling a custom kernel) but I don't have the knowledge to do this.
In the old Galaxy S2 it was simply a jpg file (called "logo.jpg"). I wish Samsung has kept it that simple!
Any developers out there wants to take this challenge?

[I9003][MOD]Custom Boot Animation for GB - PC boot

Hi All,
I have modified this Boot animation for I9003 using files from one for SII. This is animation of PC booting also there is a audio file of booting.
This should work on all stock GB version but you need to be rooted. I have tested is for XXKPH
Follow the steps given below to use this animation.
1) Attached Zip file includs "CustomBoot.zip" which has 2 files in it.
bootanimation
samsungani
Copy these two files to "/system/bin" with Root Explorer Or ADB or File expert. These files must be Executable.
ie. Permission should be executable
rwx
r_x
r_x
(r=read, w=write, x= executable)
2) Copy the file "sanim.zip" to "/system/media"
3) Copy the file "PowerOn.wav" to "/system/etc"
Credits :
Thanks to Animal Lover for his base files.

Hi There,
Great work, TQVM
I have sucessfully replace file, but Power On.wav is not working (mean no sound).
Any idea how to fixed?
Guys, don't get carried away by what you see on screen. The info you see is played from images, which is loaded into your custom boot animation. Its not real time info of the files being loaded from your mobile while booting..... That's not possible here. Its possible on pc.

That's true, These are just images (aprox 150 files) running at 30 images per second.
There are two bootanimations available on Android Market made by Chainfire which gives you actual log of boot. dont know exact names right now, But these give scroll of Dmsg and LogCat command at boot. Search for Chainfire in market and you can easily find it.

How do i change the POWERED OFF battery animation?

I have been searching around the forums to no success. Some threads say it is near impossible, others say the files are located in such and such directory. In the end i came to the conclusion that for my device it would be impossible. But recently i flashed a new rom and when i plugged the charger in i noticed that the charging animation had changed. So in THEORY it should have been a file within the ROM that i flashed that has chaged it, but i cant find any files that seem to match it, so where should i look?
Im using a Galaxy S2 4G GT-i9210T.
Thanks for any help

yes you can change your charge animation just go to /system/"find where the folder named chargemon located at then if there's a data folder there replace the files inside it usually the files are made of .png files
Like this one.
That's exactly what I'm looking for! But I have browsed through my system files and searched for chargemon and I can't find it anywhere :/. Is there another commonly used location for the battery animation? thanks

That's quite a bit hard for me to distinguish because i don't have the same device as yours, I'd even search the net for the files but can't get any leads maybe you should ask the development thread of your phone and they can answer it correctly where you can place those animations
OR
if your patient enough to look for it in your system or some other places on your device, you might found it also

I will have to get onto some people who own the skyrocket, because our roms are based of theirs. Although one thing i did find when looking through a Stock-rom-turned-flashable(??) i found 20 qmg files labelled "battery_recharge_5" directly in system media. So that might be a hint

Hi,
Jelly Bean with the Nexus 5... Something is wrong here :laugh:, you are in the N5 section...
I don't know which device you have... Test and see but first make a Nandroid backup...
I you have the path /system/media/bootanimation.zip it's ok, but maybe the flashable zip won't work (due to the updater.script)... So inside the zip file, copy the bootanimation.zip file to /system/media, set the correct permissions like the previous file or set to rw-r--r--), then reboot.

That's not it. I think he's on about when you first turn the phone on, and it says Samsung Galaxy S4, on the Galaxy S5, it says Powered by Android underneath it.
The charge animation when the phone is off is also different.
