Anyone know how to use .zip files for boot animations? [S7] - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Found a really nice, simple boot animation but it is in zip form, as we all know this means it works on all phones except Samsung's
Anyone know of a way to allow me to use it? I saw a thing a while back using old Samsung software on a computer to change it to the required format but I can find anything on it now.

just installed the android killing apple splashscreen. I have been an avid apple iphone person since the 3G came out, and I just switched to the evo 4g a few days ago from the iphone 4, and that splashscreen is exactly how I feel towards apple with their cellphones.
thanks!

yes i can use the bottom part of the pic. How far up from the bottom do you want?

I need the 3.1 system.img please.

Messed up while playing with the framework-res.apk and need to reflash the system.img. Can someone grab it for me, please?
Thanks!
[EDIT] US 3G version, please.
Actually, might as well pull all the images so we can have 'em. Anyone able to do this?

I've been thinking about how to accomplish this, and I think the only way to get a true 3.1 system.img is to take it off of a live system, that was upgraded cleanly from 3.0->3.0.1->3.1 without any setup or anything in between.. the 3.1 update only had patches for files, and the system stuff is in individual folders/files, not an overall patch to the partition (that even possible for system? seems like there are many possible differences to overwrite)
I'd be interested if anyone finds a way to do this as well. As said it looks like 3.1 was simply a patch. We might be waiting on moto for this one...

How to add sound to a boot animation start up? HELP?

Hi can anyone help me with this problem? i am using a HTC Desire Hd phone & am trying to add a android_audio.zip to my boot animation but what ever i do i cant find a way of doing it? I add boot animations via Root Explorer & then dropping the file in my phone like this ( system/media/bootanimation.zip )& that is easyly enough done but i would like to add a sound with the animation.
I have been looking on the forums & only found ways of doing it via SDK on my PC but i would like to find an easyer way because i cant seem to sync properly & for some reason the CMD wont let me type, i also have the correct drivers installed but i must be doing something wrong there but i cant figure out what? Anyway i found a way of using a program for changing the boot & sound with terminal on my phone & it sounded great & easy but it was only for use with a Vision phone & not for the Desire HD, this is the link for that Vision sound/boot changer & does anyone know if there is a Desire HD version of this? Custom boot sound link http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18910-mod-enable-custom-boot-sounds/
So does anyone know a way to change that is an easy & safe method?
Please help if you do, & thankyou in advance

Could someone make this a bootanimation?

Alright, I have several friends who want the same thing, so it would not be just for me (and it might convince a few people to get an Android phone ). But if someone could make this a bootanimation (AOSP, Landscape), I would be ETERNALLY grateful. I would not be able to compensate you financially, but if there would be anything I could do for you all you would have to do is ask*
So, can anyone help?

I'm on Sense, and I tried it with my Rom and it worked/ran like a champ. It's in Landscape. It's late so I didn't try do any audio with it, but if you wanted to, you could probably easily pull that song from the video and simply rename it/push it. IF it doesn't work, it's most likely because I messed up the desc.txt.. Let me know and I will try to fix it ASAP.
Anyways, let me know if it works.. Going to bed.

Edit: it didn't work
I'll get it working for you, it's an easy fix. It's working on my phone right now. I actually forgot to replace the one I did last night for you with my original one. Rebooted my phone this morning and your boot animation played.
Working on it now, and I'm going to flash over to CM7 really quick to make sure it boots like it should.
Edit - http://www.mediafire.com/?z47q232h8h4tfia I accidentally uploaded it with the Sense desc.txt. It's fixed in that version. Also, on my Sense Rom when I ran it, it went through the entire animation fine and looped the last ending I have it set to. On the empty CM7 rom I tested it on, it booted really quickly because it had virtually nothing to load, so it didn't make it through the entire animation. Let me know if it makes it through all of it on yours.

Thank you!
I have the MP3 for it as well. What do I rename it to, and how can I use ADB to push the zip and mp3 to my phone?
I believe you rename it to SPC_Audio_Final.mp3 but I'll have to double check to make sure. I never use Audio on mine.
If you want, you can find root explorer and then use that to move the files throughout the phone. It's an application for android. ADB will work as well, there are plenty of tutorials as to how you set it up.
The commands are..
ADB push bootanimation.zip /System/media
That should be where yours is located. If you find that root explorer application, you can do it all from your phone through the menus. Just copy/paste. The audio file should go to the same place as the boot animation.

You're fine. I'm new to doing bootanimations, so you definitely know more about it than myself.

Boot animations wont work - tried everything

Before i start i just wanted to let you guys know, i did my best to search around the forum using the search bar and manually, read all of the guides and tut's, read other peoples problems and tried their solutions
nothign seems to be working.
im on a Pantech Sky Vega IM-A650S.
i followed the tutorials located
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702625
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27477164#post27477164
but nothing seems to be working. my phone is z4rooted, and now when my phone boots its just black and plays the original boot sounds.
im doing this through the ROOT EXPLORER method,
i was trying to get the alienware boot animation someone created here to work on my phone and it just stays black.
i have stretched the images like in the tutorial, used the "imageresizer/Boot animation Creator"
i place it on my sdcard, then click mount r/w and move it to the media folder where it replaces the original bootanimation.zip
- in an attempt i actually tried renaming it just to "bootanimation" (without the .zip) and placing it in my "bins" folder because i noticed that there was a file there as well. looks like it made my situation worse.
all i really want to do is learn that way i can start making boot animations other people may want to use.
0 i know it was stupid of me not to make a backup of the original bootanimation, but i have the files needed to factory reset this phone.
the resolution is 480 x 800 ( i tried this resolution as well as the others )
Help would be greatly appreciated, i only ever ask a question once and thats when im at a complete loss
Thank You Xda-Developers!
i know its redundant
Up, hope its just something simple im forgetting to do,
this is in the right section right? thanks
try this...
thanks
so it could possibly be due to the program im using? ill go ahead and give it a try right now, thanks for the quick reply
- just installed i see that its kind of a manager for boot animations, but how would i get that specific boot animation to work.?
didnt really like the boot animations on the list, but thanks.
any other suggestions?
would i be making a mistake when stretching the pictures? other than that the program listed in the link above pretty much does everything for you
wonder why it wont work :s
didn't work still displaying black when the phone is booting. even with the program,
Bump, I'm on the same situation. Even the app for the bootanimations wont play the selected animation.
I'm trying via terminal, pushing the zip through the ADB, I've just modified the stock bootanimation images and saved as PNG-8, zipping the folfer with 7-Zip and selecting store instead of compressing...
Thanks for the help!
try flashing another rom, which supposts them
