I tried to install a custom boot animation and now I get a black screen until android starts. I've placed 2 separate animations in the /system/media/ folder named bootanimation.zip. The first time there was no file there. If I delete the custom file my original doesn't return. Ideas?
You probably have another file. Correctly removing the userspace bootanim should bring back the original, unless you deleted that or have a non working anim in there.

You can't have two files with the same name in the folder. Also, I think you're supposed to put the .zip in /data/local. The bootanimation.zip in my /system/media folder is the original, the one in /data/local is the one I replace.
from this thread here.
attached is script.txt, just remove .txt so you have a file named 10bootanimations; and move it to system/etc/init.d and set permissions to rwxr-xr-x
in data/local/ create a folder called bootanimations with permissions rwxrwxrwx.
place as many properly made bootanimation.zip as you want as long as they have a custom name other than bootanimation.zip (e.g. CM9boot.zip)
reboot and enjoy.
If you want to view a single animation only you can do so without moving or changing any of the other files.
Simply Create a file called "bootanimation.use" in /data/local/bootanimations/. In this file place a single line with the filename of the boot animation you want to use. For example:
Code:
RunonlythisOnebootanimation.zip
when you want to have random again simply remove "bootanimation.use"
heres a link to my CM9 resized one for our tabs: : http://db.tt/JPVJCiZV
and I will attach a Honeycomb and ICS one for our tabs to get you started.
This script along with rotating wallpapers really helps to keep things fresh. Not to mention CM9 builds
enjoy.

I didn't make this but it does work for us, just knew it would get more attention over here.
unzip the file, copy the app to system/app, set permissions, then copy lib file to system/lib. Go into system/app, install the app and you are good to go!
It is soooooo smooth on cm9, I love it.
I'm running a Galaxy S3 on Android version 4.3, and I am trying to change my current boot animation. I have the custom bootanimation.zip file on my phones SD card, and placed it in system/media. After a reboot, nothing changed so I went to local/data, but achieved the same result. Before placing the files in those folders, I noticed that there was no existing bootanimation.zip file in either of the folders, and system/media contains files like: "bootsamsung.qmg" or "bootsamsungloop.qmg"
Thank You
PS
The permissions are correct on my bootanimation.zip file (rw-r--r--)
Hi.
Check this thread to enable bootanimation.zip based animation
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/help-installing-galaxy-s3-custom-boot-t1843569
Please read the complete thread and follow instructions properly. Or else you will end up with never ending animation.

Hello there!
I'm in love with your name since it came out and decided to finally share the bootanimation I made of it. (S8 only)
PREVIEW
I am not responsible for bricked phones, bootloops and imploding kittens.
Instructions:
Download the KimiNoNaWaBoot.zip from here.
With a Root File Browser navigate to /system/media and rename your original bootsamsungloop.qmg to something else like .qmg1 like I did.
Paste the new qmg file from the zip folder you've downloaded.
Change it's permissions to rw-r--r--
(If you want the animation only and not the sound, you can ignore the following part.)
Sound:
Navigate to /system/media/audio/ui and check wether you already have a PowerOn.ogg file. I didn't.
In case there is one, rename it to .ogg1 or whatever you like.
Paste the PowerOn.ogg file from the zip in there and change it's permission to rw-r--r-- as well.
Sometimes the audio kicks in delayed but I have never actually cared since I don't reboot often.
Hope you like it
