this question may have been answered before i just can't seen to find it. I'm a noob so if you're just going to come in here and say how i must be stupid or i should've searched harder or some crap it would be great if you just left. Any ways im looking to make my first custom rom based off of stock touchwiz jelly bean but i want to change the default splash screen and remove the boot animation so that there's just the image on boot up. I would also like to change the default wallpaper. how would i do this? all help is appreciated and thanks in advance for helping me out

Hey man, I just recently rooted, installed a rom, kernel and themed my phone. So i was in the same position a couple of days ago
If your read around here the main thing you will see when doing something to your phone is making sure you have a Nandroid back up. The link below will show you how to create one and it gives you some other helpful advice. That post really made me confident on moving forward with my rooting experience.

Follow these steps to the T. It will save u just in case something goes wrong.
Once you follow those steps you can move forward to selecting a ROM which will change your phones layout also making it possible to flash a theme.

oh sick, sorry for the late reply! what rom did you choose? Yea i did nandroid back up right away when i rooted a few months back, always been iffy on ROM's but i am about to say f it and just go all out!
As im looking into making my own roms soon ( currently newbie ) i was wondering that when it comes to porting a ROM meant for another phone would i need to change the boot.img and if so could you name what id need to change for it to boot on my desire z / g2.
Thanks yall
boot.img holds the kernel and boot animation, so yes you will need to change them to compatible ones.
i think you should do a bit of research in to making a rom though, the info is out there.
I apologize if this has been asked before but I have searched the forums and unfortunately cannot find it. I am looking for the stock Sprint swirl boot animation. I found on called Original_Samsungs_BootAnimation.zip but it does not have the swirl. Again I apologize if I have just overlooked it but I've been searching for about an hour and cannot find it.
I have tried the method in

Sometimes, kernels will only support bootanimation.zip files and will ignore the default samsung boot animation files. If you flash a custom kernel over the stock rom, your original boot files are there, but it is looking for a different file.
did the the omega v36 custom rom already had a modification on its lock screen ? like changing the lock screen into same as the AOKP lock screen? where we can set up to 8 apps ready to be executed instead of 4? plus you get a better UI compared to touchwiz lock screen UI?
thanks
I think you are in the wrong gs3 forum. This forum is for the sprint model.
oh right, sorry about that. mods you guys can delete this thread.
Hello all,
I recently installed a custom kernel (KT747) and realized I had lost the stock boot animation that the S3 gives upon booting: it changed for the custom KT747 kernel's one. I was wondering if anyone had by any chance the stock boot animation that comes with the S3 (preferably via a flashable zip) or knows how to recover it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you all!
