are you posting a link to download a paid app for free?

I didn't know it could boot from a .img file. I thought only zips would work.
I might have to give this a try just to see.

Unfortunately I have to disagree. This is the stock built in bootanimation. You don't need any special files to envoke it.
If you simply remove the /system/media/bootanimation.zip you get the same results.
Don't take it the wrong way, perhaps you were just miss informed.

[REQ] Nexus 4 boot logo

Hi
Does anybody have a CWM flashable Zip for the Nexus4 Boot Logo.
Just flashed a ROM & I have the boring old "Android" on startup.
I'd like to have the glowing Nexus "X" logo back again
Thanks.:good:

I'd just download a ROM with it and extract it. However, you might like this. Don't remember where i found it but it matches the nexus perfectly.

Here's a better idea of what you're looking at.

you mean boot animation

I use the bootanimation provided above and like it. Works on my Galaxy Nexus also.

Here's the link for the original X from the Nexus One. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764 I actually prefer this over the new X.

Tried flashing this in CWM and nothing changed...

Don't flash boot animations . use a root explorer to paste in /system/media

What he said. Unless the person who posted it says its a flashable bootanimation.
To verify, open up the zip file. If it's a bunch of folders named /part0/ /part1/ etc then its not flashable.
Flashable: has a folder to /data/... or /system/media
chances are they're not flashable. but open to check.

Same here,
after I tried to get a custom boot animation it only shows the default "android" logo on boot.
I messed with the premissions in /styem/media/ can I revert that ?

+1 for the idea of a flashable version - specifically one compatible with Cyanogenmod
I have been running nightlies via CyanDelta and would LOVE to have a bootanimation zip that I could plop in the auto-install script to bring back the stock Nexus 'x' boot. Sadly every flashable bootanimation for the original nexus logo I have tried seems to install the files in the wrong location for CM.

store the bootanimation in /data/local/
after flashing a new nightly or whatever, it will keep your bootanimation. only way for it to reset is if you do a factory reset. enjoy.
(worked on my galaxy nexus, not sure if it works on N4 but it should, try it, shouldnt harm you.. pretty positive that its the same on N4)
edit: the bootanimation i linked earlier is a cwm flashable one. to manually do it just extract bootanimation.zip from the zip file downloaded.

Thanks for the tip! Just tried the manual push to /data/local but no joy. Upon boot it was blank, and the nightly flash restored the CM default in any event. Might be a permissions issue - should 644 and be owned by system, correct?

Does anyone have a method to change the boot logo i.e. the Google logo?
I'm looking to personalise it.

You're welcome.
Its a flashable zip too. Worked on my AOKP ROM back in the day, along with cyanogen.
Just read that threads OP. He himself extracted it from his G Nex, so it *TECHNICALLY SPEAKING* is safe to flash on our phones. But still, remember to have a nandroid for any *just in case* moment.

used to be able to do this on my Droid 1 and loved messing with it. It's not part of the kernel so it must be boot loader... do we have any way of tearing that down? I'm assuming we'd have to be unlocked... ha. Would love it if someone more knowledgeable would chime in.... thanks.

Need help with custom boot animitaion

I have Liquidsmooth v2.2 rom installed and I went through replacing the boot animation.zip with a different custom .zip but all it did was erase the Liquidsmooth animation and it boots first with the Samsung logo then galaxy s III logo and then its a black screen for the rest of the boot up. I'm not sure how to fix it at this point. I also flashed the samsung4u.zip using recovery...not sure if that's what messed it up but I would really appreciate some knowledge.

Your bootanimation.zip permission is wrong. It would be -rw-r--r--. then reboot

Was it even flashable ZIP file or was it meant to be copied and renamed? None of the ones I have used were flashable. As the previous person mentioned you need to correct the file permissions.

Buddy, these are Bootanimations files which are not flash able zip files. so as per OP Screen shot, permission is incorrect.

I'm fully aware that the ones that I have used (and the one I created) are not flashable however I was under the impression that they can be packaged into a flashable ZIP. I have not attempted because I just copy it and set the permissions. As far as the permissions on the OPs screenshot I was agreeing with your assessment that the permissions on the file are incorrect.

I would assume it's possible to make a CWM flashable zip but that would only seem useful after flashing a rom before you reboot

The samsung4u.zip is a Samsung animation bin file...which I realize I didn't need...but I think I just need to reflash my rom and start over...I wasnt paying the best attention to where the bootanimation.zip should be stored and whatenot before, nor did I really research how to do it. hah

I am not sure, since there are also bootsamsungloop.qmg, bootsamsungmini.qmg and bootsamsungminiloop.qmg. You could try renaming and adding .bak to each file, (for example bootsamsungloop.qmg.bak)reboot and see what changes, then changing it back if it doesn't have the desired effect.

For me, if you delete either bootsamsung.qmg OR bootsamsungloop.qmg, the power button does not lock/unlock the screen. However, holding the power button does bring up the shutdown menu.
As soon as you put the files back, the power button locks/unlocks the screen again.
Tried this multiple times cause I thought I was crazy. 2 day old note 3 with a fresh root. Can anyone else confirm?
Regards

Thanks I plan to test later after finishing I post the results.

You can disable the boot animation by installing Xposed framework:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
After installing framework go to the modules setting in Xposed and activate the XBlast module. Then go into your apps drawer, open XBlast app, click on build.prop tweaks and then check the box for disable boot animation. Reboot, and you will see no boot animation.
Or, if you would like a custom boot animation there are some for the GN3 here with instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2467560

Removing bootsamsung.qmg makes screen stay on all the time, even after pressing power button....wtf a boot animation has anything to do with this???? wierd.
Btw you don't have to activate xblast in xposed, in fact for this particular case you don't need xposed at all.. simply install xblast, start it (if it complains about xposed, ignore it), disable boot animation and you can safely uninstall it. Most features of Wanam module also can be used like this. Note 3 is so weird!

this will replace the bootanimation of motorola(the world) and don't affect your bootlogo

Thanks for this!
I can only seem to get part of the animation working. I turn the phone on and i get a world and google screen. After about 5 seconds the GPE boot animation then starts. Could this be down to your unlocked bootloader message fix that ive applied?
Thanks.

In ES File Explorer, click on settings(top left) and scroll down to Root Explorer. Toggle it to on(if not already) and then click the words "Root Explorer". This will bring up a menu. Select "mount r/w" then select r/w for the system partition.
It was simpler in older versions of es.

No, just put the new bootanimation and accept overwrite.

I tried both ways and it was not

/data/local/moodle/
That's correct location of boot animations if you have installed Motorola boot services
