How do i extract a boot anim from a rom ??? (i want to flash it on another phone)..
I use the rom in my sig.
You can either, download the rom from XDA and just pull it from there or you can get it from your device. Either way is the same. It is located in /system/customize/resource and called bootanimation.zip.
Ah tnx that's all i needed
Just lookin for some help. Im on stock ed05 with the latest genocide kernel. Im trying to install a custom boot animation and using astro and android file manager to delete the bootani file so i can flash a custom one as the flashing android logo is annoying. Both apps are telling me i cant delete the file though. Is Root Explorer neccessary?

Yeah; root explorer will do that no problem. It is totally worth the $$ if you are rooted and like to change stuff.
A little late , but thanks , guess ill have to get root explorer.
i have successful manage to change boot animation & crt for kph 2.3.4 stock&dodex.
1. to change crt lock screen i used this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140461
*u can use root explorer to add # and save the file.
*dont forget to enable in settings>display>animation>allow all/some animations
to change bootanimation i did those steps :
1. download bootanimation from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905538
change the name to bootanimation.zip
2.copy the file bootanimation.zip with root explorer to
/system/media/
3.change the files in /system/media/ that ends with *qmg to *.qmg.bak
4.again copy bootanimation.zip to
/data/local/
*delete the old file from there.
5. copy samsungani from download link and paste it in
/system/bin
http://98abdc58.yyv.co
*overwrite the old file.
6. change the name of the file bootanimation in /system/bin
to bootanimation.bak
if u have samsungloop file u can change his name to samsungloop*.bak
7. reboot your phone.

i will love to hear some feedback.
Okay i followed your tutorial made all steps all working good but still no crt lock animation. Animations are in settings on full animation.
this is not my guide i just follow another guide for CRT and it worked for me.
r u using KPE ?
did u restart your phone ?
what about bootanimation?
No i have 2.3.4 KPH deodexed and rooted with CWM.
I have after the steps the new bootanimation all is working good but there is no crt lock animation.
I don´t know the hell why on my fuc*** phone that god damn crt lock animation is not working.
Dunno what else i can do i tried so much but still no animation.
OK sorry im usin KPH to my mistake....
did u installed any theme ?
r u using stock theme ?
No theme installed i use the stock theme and i have go luncher installed.
But i use the stock theme.
did u tried to remove go launcher ?
all of my rom is stock, no lancer only TW...
i didnt understand if bootanimation worked for you..
go launcher isn´t running but i try to uninstall it and then check what happen then hope maybe that is the clue.
nope no crt lock animation i uninstalled the go launcher but still no result i think my phone has a spell or something that the crt is not working lol.
Witch way you made with stock 2.3.4 KPH to get the crt animation are you rooted are you deodexed have you CWM installed? Please tell me.
1. flash with odin
2. dodex&root
3. CWM gama
4.flashed coolya kernel
5. did the guide as i published.
There you go why it is working for you because you have not the stock kernel you have the coolya kernel that is why it is working for you hehehehehe.
so why boot animation worked for you ?
i dont think that the kernel is the problem.
i ll try tomorrow with stock kernel and i will update.
Yes the Bootanimation has worked but the crt lock has not worked.
Try it with the stock kernel i am really interessed if it works with stock kernel all stock only rooted deodexed and CWM installed.
I bet it is not working dunno why but i think it is like me not working.
Thanks, works great

It is strange, maybe you make a mistake somewhere. I have stock rom and stock kernel too.
On the BVJKP2 FW only the boot animation worked, the crt lock animation didn't worked.
And I have something to share, if you want the original android boot animation, just delete the bootanimation.zip from data/local and system/media or just rename with the .bak at the end AFTER doing the modification of the first post. Also, if you want to remove that Samsung animation when shutting down the phone, just rename to shutdown.qmg.bak the file from system/media/video/shutdown.
After that you will get the original Android boot animation and the Shutting down message when you turn off your phone.
Thanks

i removed the shutting down animation u can see in youtube, but i dont know if everyone want to remove it also so i didnt write about it .
who want to come back to original boot animation..
where is the boot animation path? yes im rooted and running a custom kernel and have a custom rom. the reason i asked is when i tried to flash it, it didnt work.
Check out the boot animation thread under apps and themes for the e4gt. I'd link you but I'm on tapatalk.
It gives you clear instructions on installing boot anis via two methods. Flashing and direct replacing of the stock rom.

I am using Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300 JB 4.1.2 stock ROM but rooted. I wanted to change my boot animation and tried copying "bootanimation,zip" to "system/media" but does not work, not a single one of them. I think the problem is, my phone is using a .qmg file as boot animation named "bootsamsung.qmg" and "bootsamsungloop.qmg", that is why "bootanimation.zip" is not working. I thought of deleting both file and try but I am afraid that my phone would not start at all. So please can any expert here help me out with the boot animation problem. I am a newbie and really wanted to change it. Thank you in advance...
There is a patch for that from anbech...

Once patched you can use the zip format.
I posted some bootanimations over here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1911963&highlight=bootanimation

DELETING THE FILES WILL ONLY DELETE THE CURRENT BOOTANIMATION. try extracting the zip file and then moving the two files to system / media.make sure to mount system rw, then change permissions to rw-r--r-- change ownership to 0-root then execute the script for each of the new qmg files .reboot. good luck.

You need to read the boot animation zip instructions its simple if you do but difficult otherwise . Essence is boot animation.zip requires slight system file modification on many roms . jje
Excellent piece of help...
