I installed my carrier's latest firmware, and they've gone and installed custom boot and shut down animations. That didn't seem like such a big problem, I see from the CSC files list that they replaced bootsamsung.qmg and shutdown.qmg (the looping 'S' animation at the end of the boot would still show). So, I went ahead and replaced these with the stock ones from an unmodified JVO, as I don't mind the stock animations. Unfortunately, the timing seems off. The boot animation runs too slowly, and the shut down animation runs too fast (I think - not 100% on that one). So, I take it that the speed of the animations is stored elsewhere, but I have no idea. If anyone knows, or has some idea, I would very much appreciate your assistance.
No one knows about how this works?
For anyone who comes across this, I've now discovered that the information was stored in /system/csc/customer.xml .

Hi everyone, I changed my boot animation using the app Boot Animation Changer. However now I need to return my phone to the store so I kind of need to get it back to the original boot animation. With the app I did "Stock animation" however it's not the right animation lol.
Is there anywhere I can get the stock boot animation to put on my phone, and how to do so with/without the app?
Thanks everyone

<ps, search first>
Great topic, but it doesn't provide the stock boot animation like I'm looking for, only the means to change the boot animation. I tried to search for it actually, but couldn't find anything in regards to finding the original EVO boot animation.
Anyone? Can't seem to find the stock animation.
^^; Doesn't anyone have a backup they could provide?
here is the stock bootanimation: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VMX4Z1ZG
you could also find it on any rom that uses stock bootanimation like DC (extract the zip file, go to resources>customize> and the bootanimation.zip should be there)

Oh I had no idea about it being on the ROMs, that would've been a lot easier. Thanks. :lol:
Though now with the new OTA I'm somewhat afraid to replace my phone, might just stick with my phone and the light leak as long as it doesn't get any worse.
Hi
Im looking for the original startup animation.
I dont have it on my phone becouse i use an custom firmware. So im asking if its someone that could share it to me?
It should be in system/media/video/startup
something like that
Use the search button -->"bootsamsung.qmg"
for me, my bootsamsung files are in the system/media folder but it doesn't actually do the boot animation just the normal galaxy S splash screen. No idea, might be the samset kernal or the lag fix but i find it odd that the file is there but it doesn't play it..
I used oclf 2.0 from the market.
There is a option called restore boot animation, It worked for me after i used a lagfix.
Hello, all. I am a bit stuck on something and hope someone can help me. A while back I modified one of those BIOS boot animations to match the info on my Evo, and today I modified it to reflect my ROM change.
After editing, I got all the separate pictures back together and put them into an uncompressed ZIP file like I did before and put it back in place of the old boot animation, the only trouble is now when the animation runs, it seems like it is going about 2x as fast as it should.
I didn't decrease the number of pictures/frames and when you watch it, the actual animation is going crazy fast. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Increase the number of frames?
Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.

I have an S3 with a rooted stock ROM and I started toying with changing the standard boot animation. I used the process http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897969 with success. I downloaded several animations with ROM Toolbox and everything worked fine. I then modified one and it worked as well. I modified another but did not keep an eye on the final size of the zip file and I noticed later it was much too large. It locked my phone up at the start of the animation sequence and I had to flash the disable zip file. After flashing the enable zip file I noticed that it would not accept any modified or custom bootanimation files including the one that had previously worked. Stock ones downloaded through ROM Toolbox still work. I have gone over the files thoroughly but don't see any problems. I have tried something as simple as extracting and repacking a stock animation to a NANDROID restore with no success. I have also placed it manually in the /data/local folder instead of the app with no success either. Does anyone have a clue what may be going on?
Did you try Flashing the Enable zip file again ?
Yes. I did that after flashing the disable zip, rebooting and removing the bootanimation file. Since it locked up the only animation that works are downloaded stock ones from ROM Toolbox. It would even lock up on a stock one that I rezipped with no alterations. I have used both Winzip and 7 zip.
Are you using the right compression level? It has to be set to "store", anything else will cause it to not show/work.
Weeeeeell. I feel like an idiot. I read right over that part of the instructions. Cue rolling of the eyes. It makes sense though as it needs to be kept simple for the boot process. I tested some with both zip programs and they work. Odd the first one worked though. Thank you for pointing this out.

No problem, if it's any higher (like you said) the OS would have to spend a lot of CPU power reading it, and thats just not practical to do at boot nonetheless
Just a little further of an explanation since you were already hinting at it
Anyway, glad you got it solved, have fun playing with boot anims, it's very enjoyable
I recently flashed LiquidSmooth 2.8.
Was wondering if anyone knew how to turn off the power on animation?
Are you referring to the bootanimation? Some roms and kernels hardcode theirs, and there seems to be no changing that [that i have cared enough to research]. You can change a bootanimation, or maybe perhaps delete it and see what that does. Definitely do a nandroid first though! The bootanimations are found in /data/local and/or /system/media.
Yeah the boot animation. In the past i was able to turn it off in settings. Maybe it is hard in there. Thanks.
