It would just be easier to replace one using Root Explorer, but yes you can.

I don't see any files in that folder other than a folder for audio.

is it a stock rom?
Then place bootanimation.zip (from what animation you want) on /system/media with rootexplorer (need root for that)
Does it have to be root explorer? Just tried with es file manager and it says failed when copying or trying to delete the current boot animation .zip? Thanks

Yes use root explorer and and when you want to make changes just click the button at the top mount r/w so it changes to mount r/o

Just used ES File Explorer and put the bootanimation.zip file in the /system/media folder and it works great! Thanks!
Yep me too. Hadn't enabled root explorer and mount option in es file explorer settings. So much better. Got the nexus boot and no more ugly o2 splash screen. Cheers all

I use ROM Toolbox to change my boot animation, its simple and fast, and there are a bunch to choose from, and you dont have to have BL unlocked.
Sorry to bump this again guys. Boot animation changed all good, just I have an o2 splash screen on power off. Any quick easy way to get rid of this?

No to edit splash, you need to decompile kernel and change certain files. You do for the boot splash anyway. I don't have a shutdown splash, maybe it's to do with your o2 branded rom, you could always flash a generic rom.

Thought it might be cheers. The o2 splash at startup was included in the boot animation so was able to get rid of that.

Hello, can you tell me where I can find the files for my custom boot up? I installed one using MIUI's Theme Manager, so I'm not sure where I would find it
For AOSP it is in system\media, for sense it is here, system\customize\resource.
And what if I wanted to change the boot animation on the stock rom (rooted)

Rename the old file VZW_bootanimation.zip to .zip.bak
Use android commander to push the file back in - disregard any memory errors. Rename bootanimation to VZW_bootanimation.zip

It would be awesome if people started posting custom boot animations we could flash from recovery.

If you don't have adb, take the bootanimation.zip and using es file manager, root explorer, ect, move the .zip to the folder: /system/media . As for the splash you need to simply rename that zip file to PC36IMG, place on the root of your sd card, boot into the bootloader, accept the terms, then reboot.
It says can not complete copy.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You have to make sure you have r/w enabled for both root explorer or es file manager.
In root explorer, the button is at the top, in es file manager, go to settings, then scroll down.
Still no go. After reboot

Well you could use an md5 checker...but more importantly, the zip was from a reputable place, and its known to work, by other people downloading it.

Is the file named bootanimation.zip , just like that?
Make sure its named bootanimation.zip, also if using root explorer to copy paste after you pasted it on system/media, go ahead and long press it and select permissions, give it full permissions just to make sure

Weird..Make sure its bootanimation.zip and not bootanimation.zip.zip cuz that's what happen to me I didn't pay attention to detail

Not sure I understand this. What exactly in the boot.img do you want to change?
I think he might mean the splash screen or boot animation.
If the above is the case, you have to flash it.
I mean boot animation

It depends where you got the animation from. Some are flashable thru recovery, and some you just copy and replace the original zip in /system/customize/resource/ with the new one. It all depends on who made or packaged the animation. If you open the animation zip file and it has a folder named meta-inf then it is flashable, if it has a desc.txt file inside you have to copy and paste it.
Guys!!how can i change my boot animation..I have tried romtoolbox but it did not change it when i clicked install...
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA
Try renaming downloaded bootanime to sanim.zip then put it in system/media using root explorer if using a custom rom. Back up your old one just in case.
Do you still have the root acess to your phone?
When i Lost my root acess i unable to change the boot animation via Toolbox like you mentioned.
After update my root acess and upgrade the toolbox this work good until now

1st, What ROM are u using?
U can change boot animation but need to make a few modification to /system first.
Follow this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25342300&postcount=3
After u modded this, u can use ROMtoolbox to download and change boot animation by setting the install location as /system/media/sanim.zip

It's pretty easy to do. I just downloaded the N5 version, and using Root Explorer renamed it to bootanimation.zip, moved it to /system/media, set the permissions and it works fine.
Looks pretty good as well.

could you elaborate a bit more please. Are you running a aosp or tw rom? Thanks.

same here, using es file explorer i allowed permissions and downloaded the zip file. I changed the zip file to bootanimation.zip and moved it to system/media and then changed the permissions back. Basically toggling es file explorer off so that it doesn't have write permissions and rebooted. The animation looks great. Now that i know how to do this i want to find more to try out lol.
Now if we can figure out how to change the tmobile power down animation.
I modified that boot ani for the note 3 and added an extra animation within it. Runs smooth. Try this out

You just need to change the FPS in the desc.txt file from 10 to 15 and save and re-zip it up using store compression.
I changed the desc.txt file from 10 to 15 frames per seconds so it works on faster booting phones. If you need it faster, I can change it to 20 just let me know. http://d-h.st/1m1
Flashable zip or push it to system?
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda premium
Push it to system\media. If you dont feel comfortable doing that, then you can download the app "Boot Animations" from the play store. Select local and browse for the zip file and then click on it and you should have the option for install.
Looks awesome,
I am running wicked 5, it's boot is using qmg, how do I install this?
thank you in advance
What I had to do to deactivate the qmg from being the boot animation was download and install this boot animation from kevinrocksman:
http://goo.im/devs/kevinrocksman/Bootanimations/Note3/Sprint/Flashable/BiosFlashable.zip
This install is an aroma installer so you will install it through recovery. No need to clear cache or dalvik. I know this isn't the boot animation you want, but it does something to deactivate the qmg boot. So once this is done and you reboot, you should be able to copy your bootanimation to system\media. Just make sure the name of the file is bootanimation.zip and set the permissions to (rw-r-r-) and reboot. Should work now.
