Putting the file in that location should do the trick IF you are running a kernel that has boot animations enabled. Samsung uses some .qmg format for their boot animations but thankfully the wonderful devs here have enabled the use of bootanimation.zip to work.
@dddsj, you might not have the right kind of kernel.
@rsegura77, I thought Synergy had this enabled so I don't know what to tell you. Was there and existing bootanimation.zip in that folder and if so did you rename it or move it to another lcoation prior to copying the new zip there?

You need a kernel that supports bootanimation.zip. Using root explorer, go to system/media and move old bootanimation.zip to sd card. Place new file in system/media and reboot. That's it! Just make sure that any boot animation you try is renamed to bootanimation.zip or it won't work

Not sure if Bullet supports it but there is no harm in trying. Don't replace the existing .qmg files. Just copy bootanimation.zip to that directory. If bullet supports it then you'll have a new animation and if not then you'll see the one you currently have. It shouldn't hurt anything to put the zip in there even if your kernel doesn't support it.
All I did was delete the old bootanimation.zip and pasted the new file in the same place but the only boot, animation I see is the default that comes with zombie rom I did notice I have the following files bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.any

HiJust thought i would post this up for everyone to see.. I take no credit.. But it does work on our phones..
All credit to tntdroid from android central forums..
Also Big thanks to irieme for fixing it to work at 480x800, it looks perfect now thx!
bootanimation.zip for adding to system/media or data/local
and CWM flashable zip which will add it to system/media for you...
Make sure you have moved/deleted any other custom boot animation you had on your phone before..
If you want to go back to stock then just delete/move the bootanimation.zip file from the folder you put it in and you will be back at stock.
Simples!

no copy to system/media or data/local with root explorer..
if you want to flash it with cwm you need to make the update.zip using one you already have.. and replace the file that it was previously used for with the bootanimation.zip in either the system/media folder or data/local.
Make sense?

He may have put his own one in data/local if you see a bootanimation.zip in there move it to your SD card incase you want to use it again.
Then the honey one in system/media should work hopefully.

In /data/local there's a "tmp" named folder and inside it there's a .lck file.
In /system/media there's also the shutdown animation in a folder, but it shouldn't affect this boot animation I think, or does it?

Now it works.. it just had something to do with me moving the bootanimation.zip to /system/media in the first place.
Maybe because it didn't replace the excisting file but it renamed itself.
Then I deleted the old bootanimation and renamed the new one.
Now that I deleted all the zip's and then moved the animation, it works perfectly, thanks!
So I'm not able to find a 'how to' on changing the boot animation, been running incRom for awhile now and figured I'd change things up a bit. Anyone know how or know a link to view how to change this? Thanks in advance
Do you have root explorer? If so you can copy and paste a new boot animation right in to the proper location. Probably system/customize/resource. Just rename or move your current one so you can still use it later on. I just made a pretty badass one recently. If you want I can post a flashable zip for you. Just let me know where its located and what clockwork recovery you have.

Alright. So from root explorer scroll down to system. At the top it has mount ro and mount rw. You want to mount rw. Now find the original boot and rename it to VZW_bootanimation.zip.bak. Go back to the SD card through root explorer, long press and copy the new bootanimation. Now go back to system/bin and paste. Should work from there. Ive never had to set or fix permissions. Holla back.

It'll be in the install zip for whichever ROM you're currently using. Same place /system/media/.

I tried that and also tried one from a theme, no go. In the end I flashed the hc2.0 theme again and that fixed me right up.
First off, i know this is a repost but can't seem to locate where i originally found the thread/post. So to make it quick if someone has the link, feel free and post it. On the other hand, I tried to rename the bootanimation.zip located in system/customize/resource to replace it with another boot animation that i found in themes sub forums. When i booted up it was blank and pretty much skipped the boot animation. Is there any other way to change it besides that? Don't get me wrong, i just spent 20 minutes using the damn search engine which got me nowhere. Maybe I'm an idiot but whatever. Thanks alot
I'd say download again and install.
or
Rt click on the zip and make sure it's not renamed to bootanimation.zip.zip
either way you should

Browse to /system/media and backup bootanimation.zip to a safe location
Rename this boot animation to bootanimation.zip
Place the new bootanimation.zip on your SD card
Navigate to where you saved the new bootanimation.zip and copy it
Browse to /system/media and paste the new bootanimation.zip replacing the old one

Pretty sure that is not very safe. Going between GB and ICS is risky, it is best to start from scratch every time

This is true, if you have a kernel that supports bootanimation. We currently do not have one, until official is out, and reconfigured by a kernel dev (please please do this for us Steady...). The bootanimation that you see is the one in our source kernels, used in a .qmg format, that is also explained in my link.
In order to change the bootanimation, you need to get tue .qmg files from other phones. They used to be named bootani.qmg, in the gb days, but after froyo, they turned to bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg located in /system/media. You can go to this link and download a zip file, of a stock boot from that specific phone, open it, rename bootani.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg, and copy the files into tue /system/media folder if you want. I triex hem all out, but some of them dont work due to sizing. The cool part about it is that you can kind of have a "dual boot" by taking a bootsamsung from one and bootsamsungloop from another, and they will both show up, one after the other. Dont bother with the sounds files, cause jone of them work. Rename the other qmg to old or something if you want to keep them... Here is the link for collected qmg files.... http://www.nubecoder.com/files/android/SPH-D700/bootani-qmg/

Codename can do this due to ot being ported from other devices. I am not sure how the kernel combo works with it, but it has things in there built directly from source in order to get these awesome features without relying on the kernel. I could be far from wrong here (hopefully not, I hate looking like an ass....lol), but I was unable to change on all of the leaked versions so far.

You can also just replace the bootanimation in the zip file prior to flashing. Just make sure its in the same format as the one presently there. I know with AOSP this is possible but may cause some issues with Stock TW unless you know how to or find a program that will convert bootanimation to the same format as TouchWiz
