Make sure you have a kernel that supports custom boot animation. Genocide is easiest and painless. You may also have to remove stock boot animation if you see double images. There is a boot cleaner floating around for that.
BONSAI 4 and loving it!
You can go into your system/media folder and rename the bootani.qmg file to bootani.bak or just delete it entirely. That will get rid of the double boot bleed threw.
Also I have my own personal boot animation removal.. Just follow up once you run it with a flashable of a bootanimation you want.
Remove Stock Boot Animation (Flash in CWM3.0.0.6) Gets rid of the stock boot animation if its still there, I made this for the stock deodexed version of Froyo EB13.
Ok first post here. I'm runing prerooted 2.2.1 build with drockstars kernel, cwm purple, chainfire...ect ect. Anyways. I have not been able to replace anything in the system files. And the helix flash zip files for boot ani don't work. Shutdowns are easy. Got that on lock. What I'm realy interested in is finding a .zip cwm flashable file that will replace the samsung splash screen. Idk what pic is there as ill replace it with what I want (radioactive symbol). I saw a thread about it on here but I can't find it. This is the closest I've been able to come. So any ideas on that. I've got amillion other questions too. I've been scowering this sight for months. Two bricks later I'm gettin the hang of it.

Well first u have to be rooted and and have a kernel that suports bootanimation. Second u need to get root explorer and copy the new bootanimation to system/media and that's it.

And you may need to flash a boot cleaner or manually delete the stock boot ani files or you will get the 2 animations conflicting.

Hey thanks ptfdmedic.
Turns out I was smart for once and had backed up my stock ROM before I went about changing everything. I just flashed back to that and used buddy323's stock kernel to get it back to good as new.
I have a copy of some of the kernels that were hosted on the ACS website. It's been down for a day or so, so I don't know whats up with that. If anyone needs a copy, send me a PM.
This is based on the great work done by animelover. Jerdog originally posted this I am just updating it for 2.3.6. I did not make this so all credit goes to animelover. I just put it in a zip that will work for our phones.

Open a root file explorer and navigate to system/media and tell me if the boot animation is named "bootanimation.zip", or "sanim.zip". I can try to make you a flashable zip if it's ok with the crawrj.

when i flash the boot animation it installs the bootanimation.zip into system/media. I'm thinking it might be the stock kernel. The kernel has to have bootanimation support right?

Make sure your kernel supports boot animation. I am stock el13 with stock rogue kernel and it works.

People having trouble on stock kernel try this: http://db.tt/Z3pfNCYJ
If that doesn't work, toggle signature verification off in recovery and try this: http://db.tt/5HKEtB2s
If that doesn't work...then sorry, I tried.

thanks for helping but still doesn't work for me. I will probably just use a different kernel.

Ok. Sorry bro. I tried.
i got this to work perfectly while running rogue stock EL13 kernel, just downloaded the zip in OP, placed on sd card, went to the zip using root explorer, touched it once to open it, went to system folder then to media then extracted the bootanimation.zip, renamed it to sanim.zip, then moved it to system/media, restarted phone, and it worked perfectly. However, i could not figure out where to move the sound to, i moved it to system/etc but didn't do anything, so if anyone could tell me where to put that, id be grateful ^^

Using custom kernel works, just not on stock el13 kernel. Audio file should go into /etc folder.

SlickMOD uses "sanim.zip" instead of "bootanimation.zip" in system/media folder.

I have created this thread to help people easily change their Boot animation on S3. I was running Stock Bell MF1 running KTweaker kernel and this worked. I am now running CM10.1 and it works on that as well. The steps I used to preform and some sources that I have gotten my animations from are all listed below. If you click the links Please, Please hit the thanks button under each threads OP as these are the guys who actually did the work. Im just a guy sharing my experience. If you report success or failure with this method, please leave Rom/Kernel info in your comment so others have something to search for. And of course before doing any of this create a Nandroid. Enjoy.
For CM10.1 skip step 1
1: My very first step was to flash the 'Bootanimation_support.zip' file from the following link. It enabled bootanimation support for my rom. https://app.box.com/s/blvftexwa2b7vap42rfm
2: take bootanimation.zip file from any of the lower sites and push it to data/local and reboot. There are some in these links that dont seem to work, just try another. Want to be sure it works. Use first link and you will see.
This is the best one I have ever seen. The youtube link in the post shows video of it running on an S2, but I assure you it works as it is the one I am currently using. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982078&highlight=boot+animation
This one has a few to chose from. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867706&highlight=boot+animation
Here is another one that I will confirm working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30478959&postcount=20
Also this one if you open the zip /data and take the bootanimation.zip out and put in sd/data/local. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1888848&highlight=boot+animation

I tried this, downloaded the flashable zip of the countdown boot animation, flashed in recovery, confirmed it was placed in data/Iocal, permissions are rw/rw/rw, but I'm still getting the stock Samsung boot!! I have an AT&T i747 running deTmobilized 1.5 with stock packaged kernel... Something I'm missing?

Update: I have changed the OP and included a direct link to step 1 flash file in my box.com account. It works fine on wife's phone on de-tmobilized with built in stock kernel. Hit first link.....install that zip via recovery and then proceed to step 2

I also have the same file in system/media. I believe it is the stock animation, so i'd leave it alone. If you use an animation that is not working it will automatically go back to this one.
I have just tested this on CM10.1 as well and will confirm it to work. For CM10.1, I skipped step 1 flash and just moved bootanimation.zip to data/local. Again I am running Ktweaker, but the AOSP version this time.
