Hello
I have tried asking this question in other places but no luck
Basically i got a android (Samsung s3) and now i am customizing it for myself.
And now i am stuck. I decided to change startup and shutdown animations and sounds just because. For startup i successfully changed it to the droid peeing on the apple logo (because it is funny) but for the shutdown i want just a sound file (a turret from portal saying shutting down). I followed the thread "HOW TO: Change bootup/shutdown animations and sounds" but i cannot get it to work. I have tried various formats and many ways of naming the file i have found on google but no success. Only thing that i noticed is that i did not have a shutdown file before i started messing with it. Afterwards i tried importing a shutdown animation from "forum.xda-developers . com/lg-g3/themes-apps/bootanimation-android-5-0-l-boot-t2814467" and that does not even show the animation.
Thanks

Hello,
Has anyone successfully removed the colorful (but very annoying to me) Verizon LTE boot animation for the Galaxy 7.7?
Thank you!
I hope responding to my own message isn't a big no-no when there is something of substance (I think) to post:
After rooting and installing superuser and accessing the SCH-i810 using the "Root Browser" posted here at XDA (thank you), I determined that I could cut the two files:
/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg
/system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg
paste them both in
/system/media/video
And now the SCH-i810 boots with no animation.
The momentary Samsung 7.7 splash remains but, otherwise nothing until the home screen appears in about 18 seconds.
Maybe this info helps someone. The Verizon boot animation was just too much color flashing and movement. The animation might be great for the store but for everyday use -- ugh.
Thanks for this. Too bad there's no way to get rid of the sound too.
Open a root explorer, go to /system/media/audio/ui.
Rename the "PowerOn.ogg" to whatever you want... eg PowerOn.ogg.bak
then its done.. no more start up sound
Hello, I am attempting to do something that I didn't think would be that hard and it has ran me into so many problems.
I have the Samsung Galaxy s4 Active. So I now have gained root acess, but I found out I cannot change the boot animation that easily for samsung phones because they use a different something. So I go through the trouble of downloading a ton of crap and making a animation compatible with my phone, set it up, and email it to my device copy paste to system/media and ovverrite existing. Rebooted, Said samsung then custom under it with a unlocked lock. Rebooting ever since does nothing so I gave up with that and decided to look into a mod allowing using basic bootanimation.zip like all other phones, But for Samsung active can't use Clockwork mod or whatever so I gotta get something else called Flash Gordon. When I go to download it on my phone, I get an error. First it says "Connecting to Dl.xda.developers and then it'll say Sorry, this player does not support this type of audio file and I'm at a loss because now my phone will not lock or time out the screen. When I hit the lock button it won't lock. It works fine becuase if I hold it it pulls up turn off and crap. I just made sure in settings that screen timeout is set at 15 sec and it won't timeout already tried reboot for fixing that and it didn't help. I feel like giving up right now..
love this rom, best Ive run since the days of the Sidekick. Couple of questions,
1) icons not turning blue when connected (wifi,tmo,batt), is that normal or a permission set maybe?
2) this had hardware similar to Sidekick, would the Blaxe 4g modem help or hinder the modem in this rom?
3) Im getting a "clock has stopped" notice constantly, I disable in apps but it reappears now n again.
4) Boot animations, are they possible to replace and how. I have a Simpsons one ,in System/Media,as bootanimation.zip but the only thing that happened was it went to "android" word logo (default?). so now the 4.4.4 bootani is gone but boots logo, 4 different zips,same result.
I came from the note 5 and there were several ROMS and an aroma zip that totally modded the way androids looked just starting up. No Samsung logo. no t mobile. no triangle. I wish i even knew how to start out or who to pass the information along to. To have some overall pleasant experience. There was the boot splash, boot animation, and shutdown animation.

that will all come in due time. The V20 is still very young in terms of how long root as been around. once the kernel gets sorted to get rid of the static people will start caring more about the boot animations. As far as the start up triangle and warning, not sure if that will ever get fixed but I really hope someone figures out how to disable it.
I'm guessing most of these boot issues will slowly be sorted over time.
If you're rooted you can get rid of tmobile video and annoying jingle. Here is stock android boot video and rename poweron.ogg in /system/media/audio/ui

There's an app called BootAnimations you can use. I use the Joker one from there and it looks good.
Ive been rooted for awhile now so Ive tried finding out how to get boot animations and i tried this app called 'boot animations for super users' on the play store but every time i install a boot animation,when i reboot it always plays the stock samsung logo no matter how many different logos i try.I find it weard because it didnt work nor did it soft brick me.
OK, so 4th time trying to get the post to 'post up', 15 minutes after 1st attempt...
The app you refereenced seems to have marginal reviews.
To get a different boot animation, it needs to be flashed. I don't have any idea of how the app does it't thing.
Look around here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes
Maybe the app doesn't start at boot time and it starts later on, so when you restart you end up with the stock animation.
