This post assumes you have root
Instructions:
To change your bootup sound remove/replace :
Code:
/system/etc/PowerOn.wav
To change your shutdown sound remove/replace :
Code:
/system/media/audio/ui/PowerOff.wav
Hope that helps!
On a side note, the shutdown animation is stored in :
Code:
/system/media/video/shutdown/shutdown.qmg
and the startup animations are in :
Code:
/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg
/system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg
but I have not tried removing them (pretty sure it's safe if I remember correctly from the vibrant)

Does anyone have the Bionix startup/down sounds from the vibrant saved anywhere (Sounded like a lady talking)? That would be great. My search turned up one post but the link is dead.

Found it if anyone else wants it! The megaupload link still works. I didnt flash it but if you unpack the zip the audio files are in there. You will have to convert the shutdown to wav, it is currently in .ogg format. Move them to the folders listed above and make sure they are named to the file name you are replacing.

So to change the boot animation do i rename the bootanimation.zip to bootsamsung.qmg?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
No, this is not possible yet. Once a kernel is made that will allow bootanimation.zip you will then be able to change the boot animation but not now with stock.

I've renamed the files to bypass them during shutdown/startup but there is still a delay. Is the startup delay part of the system loading or is it programmed to allow for the t-mobile startup animation? Basically, I'm wanting to know if there is a (simple) way to remove the blank screen delay when booting.

Replacing Files
I can see the files in Root Explorer - How do I go about actually replacing the files? Is there a command line utility? The directories mentioned are not visible in a windows explorer environment... Do I need to change the file and folder permissions using root explorer? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just rename the files in root explorer. Put a " 1 " at the end of the files eg - bootsound.apk1 - it'll make the file not work and you can always delete the 1 and get the sound back.

If using root explorer, press the R/W button on the top of the app. It'll make the file system writable.

then rename/delete
TW_Battery_Caution.ogg for the "full" sound and
Charger_Connecition.ogg for the "plugged in" sound.
This is the boot animation with audio and shutdown with audio from the original samsung galaxy s II. in my opinion they are much cleaner, and classier than some of the others... I like a simple clean look.
Here is the boot animation. I have tested and it works for stock roms, custom roms version was tested and works. SSConceptz zipped it for flashing. Thank Him!

I am running Midnight ROM 2.2, with Kernal that came with it...
What Rom are you on? - I guess I should have been more clear... If you are stock rooted, this may not work, depending on what kernal you are running. the Kernal needs to support boot animation. Unfortunately I dont have the original Galaxy S II qmg files. I am sure they are out there, but the only way to test them is to install the bootsamsung.qmg from a GSII in the same location, and overwrite the existing. do you have cwm on your phone? can you make a backup first? I highly recomend you do that!~
As far as power on, just replace the poweron.ogg file, or you can convert the wav file i included to an ogg file with a converter, I dont think that will matter. the sound should work either way.
as far as the shutdown animation and sound...
I am updating the OP Now~ sorry for the confussion...

Okay, thanks for some clarification. I am on Stock Pulled kernel with CWM5. I was able to get it working with a minor change to your steps.
Here is what I did to get it to work:
1) Download Original SGSII without boot animation support.zip file in OP
2) Unzip contents to location on phone (internal or external is fine)
3) Nandroid backup in CWM5 just in case
4) Using Root Explorer, copy bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg to system/media. Fix permissions to be like other files.
5) Copy PowerOn.wav to system/etc. Fix permissions
6) Copy shutdown.qmg to system/media/video/shutdown. Fix permissions
7) Copy PowerOff.wav to system/media/audio/ui (this is different than stated in OP) Fix permissions
8) Reboot and should be good to go.
Also, just a note, the PowerOn.wav file is exactly the same as the one that already exists on the stock rom. It is already the Samsung sound so no need to really copy that file if you are on stock.
Thanks for helping us get rid of the ugly Sprint boot animation!!
Awesome... Glad you got it working!
I wish I knew how to compile a flashable zip for CWM. It would be easier for others if they could just flash the corresponding zip for the ROM they were on...

I replaced the PowerOn.wav with a .wav file I found at freesounds.org. It's quite different and fresh/new!

Hi!
I've made a StarGate Bootanimation for Galaxy S II. (for Android 2.3.5)
Thanks to crispixfr for the original version (for SGS1).
Actually i resized his version, replaced its sound (the original was too dull), and updated the script for SGS2 Android 2.3.5.
Install:
First of all you have to unrar the two parts. -i had to split the .ZIP with rar because xda forum allows only 8MB attachments.
After that:
a) Install With ClockWorkMod
OR:
b) Install with root explorer (extract the .zip and paste the bootanimation.zip in system/media and PowerOn.wav in system/etc)
I recommend to increase the system volume to maximum for real experience.
(Settings>Sound settings>Volume>System volume)
Previews:
great animation. Have it also in my SGS1. The problem wich i have, is that the sound of locking symbols is to fast.... But maybe our gs2 is to damn fast.
best regards
PS. also i have a power on and off from Transformes wich i love have them on every phone that i own (glad to share with you guys)

You mean that the sound doesn't match the picture?
Maybe your phone plays the video slower than mine.
no no..you got me wrong...IT MATCH..but it plays fast then i used to sgs1. in sgs1 is more like in the movie (but i think is about that in sgs1 it take longer to boot).
it's like 1.2.3.4.5.6.7 done but no issues about sync video/audio
Looks good will give this a go i was getting a bit bored of the Galaxy Nexus boot animation anyway
Thanks you for to have updating my boot animation !!! Crispix is the best !!! And you too now lol

As i have said in the first post: First of all you have to unrar the two parts.
So there is only ONE ZIP file, which you'll have after extracting the RAR files.
After that, you only have to flash the extracted ZIP file!

Put ur file onto multiupload ;-)
Directly from my SGS II using xda premium
Sometimes is not working the regular method (trough CWM). You need to push the files manually.
Choose a file explorer wich can gain read writte rights on system folder (personaly i use root explorer).
Step 1. Unzip the zip file wich doesn't work trough CWM flash, and you will obtain several folders (system/media wich contain bootanimation.zip) and etc/ wich contain PowerOn.wav. Copy this files in a folder inside your internal sdcard or external sdcard. Mainly you are interested on bootanimation.zip and PowerOn.wav
Step2. With file explorer mount with R/W the system folder and copy the bootanimation.zip from your folder to your /system/media folder. If you allready have a bootanimation.zip there, it will be overwritted.
Step 3. With file explorer mount R/W the etc folder, and copy from your folder PowerOn.wav to your etc folder.
Step 4. Reboot. Enjoy.
I think the same steps are also for the other kernels wich use the sanim.zip.
I don't remember in what folder is stored, but it will be like, rename the extracted bootanimation.zip to sanim.zip, and copy the new file to the respective folder. The poweron.wav is going to the etc folder.
If you have a copy error please check if you have read/writte rights on that folder. For default you have Read Only rights.
Hope that helps, and all credits go to the OP for this great animation.
best regards

Knowing that you are running PACman you should be able to take your bootanimation.zip file and place in /system/media using ES File Manager or similar app change permissions to rw-, r--, r-- and reboot. Hope that works for you.
Nope, that doesn't work with the file I attached to the OP. Just did as you instructed and it booted my phone black (sounds like it booted fine, but everything is black). So, I had to go into recovery and restore a backup. This is the problem I'm having...either the file in the OP isn't the right one for my phone, or something. I did set the permission and placed the bootanimation.zip in the /system/media folder and that is what happened.
I downloaded the AOKP rom and extracted the bootanimation.zip file...moved it to /system/media and set permissions as --rw --r --r and rebooted and same crapola...black screen...had to restore a backup.
Does it have to be somehow converted to a qmg file? If so, how come it isn't one in the AOKP rom then?
Here is the file...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/93orocmsfc68j8k/bootanimation.zip
FYI...Rom Toolbox installs it pre-installed bootanimations just fine and they work. I only have issues when I try to do one myself outside of Rom Toolbox. :/

Interesting... Question, when you copy the files manually to the /system/media folder is it replacing a different bootanimation.zip file? If not, then it must be located in the "/data/local" location? You could try copying there? As far as being converted to qmg format, pretty sure that is only the case for Touch Wiz ROMs. I have had the "Blackout", boots fine situation myself. If I get a chance tonight I will load PACman and see if I can help that way. Sorry can't be more help.

Yeah, it was replacing one. I just double checked /data/local and there isn't anything regarding bootanimation there.
I just opened the PACman zip that I have installed on my phone and found the bootanimation.zip and it is in /system/media and it is a series of jpg files (two folders full). The only difference between the CM animation and the AOKP one is that the AOKP one are PNGs instead of JPGs.
If you are still interested in this weird problem...here is what I have tried...
I converted the PNG files to JPGs...rezipped, put on phone, confirmed correct permissions after placing it in /system/media/
The only progress is that it didn't keep my phone black after boot...only a black/blank boot animation.
Files are 480x800
Here you go don't forget to set permissions to rwx r-x r-x

British graphic designer Christian Tailor created this awesome animation of stylized Marvel and DC Comics heroes and villains, and now you can use it as the boot animation on your Android device.
It was later turned into default start up animation by Brian Roberts
HTML:

and later into a flashable zip by Ronald Valdes

.
Now all I did was I took Christian Tailor's bootanimation which was 1080p and converted it into 720p which will fit perfectly on S3 or any 720p devices.
Here is the link to download,

Install Instructions:
1. Your device need to be rooted. It won't work if your device is not rooted. How to root? Please check online. I hope samsung device users have custom rom with root and not stock rom with root. I have no idea how it works in other brand android devices, so proceed only if it is similar process as you find below.
2. This is not a flashable file, so you have to copy it into your system/media .
3. Use X-plore, make sure you have root access. To get root access, press configuration. Under Root access, select superuser + mount writable. I only know how to do this in xplore, i don't know how it works in other apps. So sorry. I will let you know how it works in other apps.
4. Now go to root/system/media and you will find bootanimation.zip . Copy it to your internal/external memory.
5. Delete the bootanimation.zip from system/media.
6. Now copy the dcmarvel720pbootanimation.zip to system/media and rename it to bootanimation.zip .
7. Now reboot your device.
8. Now Enjoy.
[By the way, I really don't know if I was allowed to post this or not. If I was not allowed, please comment here, and also I am sorry, I will remove it as soon as possible. If I am allowed then thank you. Please support the original people who did it.]
Hi. Good job bro. But, Can you tell how to install this? I tried via recovery and it failed... Tried putting in system/media and rebooted but the previous boot animation is still showing. I renamed the old bootanimation.zip first before trying.
Thanks

In system/media, remove the previous boot animation. Either delete it or just copy it to your internal memory, but you will have to delete it in your system/media. Now save the dc-marvel bootanimation zip to system/media and rename it to bootanimation.zip
Now try rebooting. Hope it worked.

Update : was using Cm11 theme before and this seemed to be the cause.restored the theme to default and placed the boot animation to system/media and it worked like a charm.
Thank you again
Very cool, but why must it call me a mother****er when I install it?

Hmmm, when I replace the original bootanimation.zip with the Superhero one and restart, I only get flashing "android" text in the middle of the screen, it's animated so something is happening... but no heroes. Curious. Any ideas?
Thanks for bringing this to the forums btw and resizing it
EDIT: Found out why, I needed to change the permissions to rw-r-r

It did yes, I used ES file explorer (make it have root permissions) and if you go to more > properties permissions > change and set it to rw-r-r, the bootanimation then works
Haha, it's awesome! The size is a bit big, but that's not a problem. Thanks! :victory:
Didn't work for me?

are you rooted? also are you using a custom rom?
it only works if you use both root and a custom rom,
as said in the instructions, make sure you have given superuser mount writable permissiom. Either delete the bootanimation.zip from you system/media or copy the bootanimation.zip to your internal memory or external memory if available.
now copy paste the dcmarvelbootanimation.zip to system/media and rename it to bootanimation [make sure it is still in zip format which means it is .zip]
now try rebooting.

2.Open root explorer (or some sort of similar app)
3. under System/media move old bootanimation over to external SD card (or remove)
4. Find new bootanimation file, move to data/local
5. Rename file to bootanimation
6.change permissions to rw-r--r--
Restart phone and enjoy

I renamed the zip to bootanimation.zip and copied it to root/system/media.
but I am only getting an android logo as the boot animation, nothing like the stuff shown here.
I am rooted and unofficial cm12.
