Cool Boot Animations ?

Anyone got any cool boot animations for galaxy s2 . Post here !
We can now use boot animation .zip's with CF-ROOT Kernel here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399)
Custom boot animations and binaries
CF-Root also supports custom boot animations:
- /system/media/bootanimation.zip
- /data/local/bootanimation.zip
And custom boot binaries:
- /data/local/bootanimation.bin

these are nice (the droids) :

So there is no way to do this with a stock rooted rom ?

If I'm not mistaken, the ROM must be deodexed at least.

You just took the bootanimation.zip and put it in system/local ?

copied the file into the data/local and system/media folder but its not working, any ideas?
btw using the stock rom

Stock ROM (actually kernel) doesn't support bootanimations.

Will these work on a stock KE7 kernel at all? And if so where do I place them?

Super, thx perfekt work

You need the CF-Root kernel for bootanimation.zips to work I believe.
Maybe someone'll like this...

XDA Developers boot animation I have the 480x800 jpg on mine. Smooth but pixelated. The png version lags but looks better.
Back to the stock S boot animation I like how it says Galaxy S II at the bottom.
Maybe someone can create one with the Galaxy S II text flying in or something? Or maybe a variant of the BIOS boot animation for the S II?

.
I've found the perfect program for boot animations. There are over 200 animations and they are easy to switch. Also there are many for our screen resolution.
It's called: "Absolute System Root Tools" and it can be found on the android market. It works without problems on my cooked and rooted rom.

Android Astronaut Animation can be found on SGS1 themes forum .
Not a zip its done in the original qmg format and just replaces the originals in system/media .Works on stock roms .
Copy here sorry can not find the original post credit to the originator name unknown . Unzip and place the two qmg files in system /media after backing up the originals .This is not a boot-animation zip file .

were you using a gs2? because i dont see no bootanimation.zip anywhere,, my phone is root n it does have a file wid a name of odeanim.zip which is in system/media/ and if i replace that file with my own customer animations it doesnt work.. i have tried replacin it with both file names i.e. bootanimation.zip and odeanim.zip..
i wonder y hasent anyone spoken about galaxy s2 not having bootanimation.zip at the first place :S n its a stock rom rooted with a different kenel, not CF-root.
can anyone shed some light on this please

I haven't tried to customize my boot screen yet, which is surprising considering I've created plenty of them. The only downside(upside) is the boot up is really quick.
Shameless plug coming
Theres 2 boot animations in my sig.

Yea thats what I love about this phone compared to htc phones, I can boot into recovery in like 5-10 seconds and flash something then be rebooted in another 10ish seconds. I LOVE this compared to the waiting game I used to play with my desire, especially as im a flashaholic.

Ok I just made a CWM zip file, should work, haven't test it just yet though. (Will not work with Talon based kernels because it needs to be renamed to sanim.zip) (Lol I just tried it, yucky ... really blurry)

FYI, I downloaded this from the link provided at ausdroid dot net and flashed through CWM and it works great (which linked to a filesonic d/load)

the kernel has to support boot animations, check with the kernel dev
with talon you have to change the name of the zip

there is an android logo and it is stuck on it
any workaround

Custom boot animations and binaries on GINGERBREAD ( CF-Root versions >= 2.9, broken in 2.8 ! )
CF-Root also supports custom boot animations:
- /system/media/bootanimation.zip
- /data/local/bootanimation.zip
CF-Root v3.0 and up also support:
- /data/local/bootanimation.bin
according to the dev's page it does follow the instructions above
download the bootanimation.zip direct from the media fire link on first page and then move using root explorer

I9000 BOOTANIMATION Zip || Original Standard Stock Galaxy S Animation

Some Custom Kernels replace the original Bootanimation because "Custom Bootanimation Support". So here is the Original as a Encoded Zip-Version.
THIS IS THE FINAL LAGFREE-VERSION FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY S.
if you want to make it smoother, just read this . but i have modified the desc.txt and for me it looks like original
perherps it is necessary to rename in sanim.zip or bootanimation.zip
1. look in your folder /system/media for sanim.zip or bootanimation.zip
2. note permissions
3. replace with new zip and set noted permissions
4. be happy.

smooth means the speed of the animation
the attached file in post#1 is not for flash.
semaphore supports custom bootanimation. you can easyly replace bootanimations, see the instructions in post#1
- use a root explorer like "ghost commander"
- go in your folder /system/media and look for "bootanimation.zip" or "sanim.zip"
if you don't understand, just post in your language, perherps someone can help

Thanks mate! i m flashing those now

I think i cant flash it because of i m on stock rom.?
i cant see any .zip gile in system/media.
There are animation files formatted as .qmq

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus GT-I9250 using Tapatalk!

if you have semaphore, you can use the animation.
try to mount system and flash.
if you've done look in the folder /system/media
last tip: just ask at the semaphore thread for instructions.

Bootloop!
Hello,
i applied your new bootanimation but now it is getting in some sort of bootloop i 'don't see swirley animation of the S, I only see ANDROID..
what do i have to do??
Fast response please

maybe you have to rename it in sanim.zip or bootanimion.zip or something similar
just take a look for a single zip-file in /system/media

go into recovery, try wipe cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions
and when nothing will help, just flash the kernel again

Custom bootanimation is usually named
bootanimation.zip or sanim.zip
Look in /data/local or /system/media
Rename the custom bootanimation, and SGS default
/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg
is shown at next boot.
Unless default is missing, there is no need to install the file provided in this thread to revert to original Samsung.

kernels with "custom bootanimation support" will not support the original bootsamsung.qmg
there is no need to delete something, just replace a zip file.

no, there is everything working fine
i cant understand, why Basjoo has no stock bootanimation displayed
he has flash rooted stock rom and semaphore, no bootanimation.
dont know what he wants with the zipfile, when there is the bootanimation.qmg supported.
it should be displayed.

no after flashing value pack for the second time i got the boot animation back, but my problem is that it is laggy.. So i wanted to replace it with a smoother bootanimation. I thought that i had to delete both bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg files and replace them with the new bootanimation.zip

You should have done a nandroid backup before flashing this. You can't go back to stock if you don't have the backup. Another method is to download the ROM you are currently using and extract the bootanimation.zip from the ROM's system/media folder. Then follow the OP instruction to replace the current bootanimation. Hope that helps.
Remember, always nandroid backup when flashing anything.

Well. I was able to make the shut down animation work.
but the boot/start one does not work. I made everything like the tutorial.
No luck
I'm using the stock rom. Strange.

[List][bootanimation] Custom Bootanimations

1st let me tell you what and all required for a custom bootanimation.
You must have a ROOTED device.
A root file manager such as ROOT EXPLORER
Custom bootanimation of your choice
15-20 minutes of time
and importantly PATIENCE
if you have all these then proceed to the next step
Download any of you favorite Bootanimation from here or from any other thread/site
How to add:
You need root and CWM Recovery.
If you need the stock bootanimation then make a back up of that using RootExplorer
Copy the bootanimation to your SD Card.
Rename to bootanimation.zip -If the zipfile has any other name plz rename it to "bootanimation.zip" , without quotes
With root explorer or any other app that allows you to get to /system/media
Copy the bootanimation .zip into /system/media and replace it with the stock one (remember to mount R/W)
And Finally set permissions to rw--r--r--
Should Look something like this
x x -
x - -
x - -
All Bootanimations are of 320x480 size , so will support GIO

Maybe a real stupid question, but hey, I'm a noob.
To change the bootanimation, you have to change it in the zip file of your rom. Or am I wrong?
But is it possible to change it, without re-installing the rom?

It is placed at system/media and called bootanimation.zip.
Use a file browser with root acces on your phone to move the bootanim you want(from SD) to /system/media and replace it. Dont forget to set permissions or you wont see it
