Boot animation

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThIx_X7KL-E&playnext=1&list=PLB51E246983769403
Anyone know where i can find this exact Boot animation? and do i install it same way as i would a custom rom.
1. Put in root
2. Boot to recovery
3. Flash it
and thats it? this will be first time i download just a boot animation. i normally use the one that come with the rom.
and i left a youtube comment but the creator hasn't posted a message in over a month
Thanks.

I'm not sure where to find it, but it depends on how its packaged, on how you install it. If its a flashable zip, then yes you do exactly as you said. If its just the bootanimation.zip, and isn't flashable, then you can use root explorer to put the file where it belongs. If you're on a sense rom, it goes in /system/customize/resource. If you're on aosp, it goes in /system/media. Just put it in the right folder, set permissions, and reboot.

Your welcome. I'm sure its on xda somewhere. I'd check and search in the themes and apps section, or use Google to search it.

I Did a XDA search and it pretty much people like me asking for a Transformers boot animation but it wasn't the specific one i was asking for.
Google is my next stop

Damn, you're right. The mp3 file (for the boot sound) will download it seems, but the actual boot animation links me to 4shared and says 'the file link is no longer valid', or something like that. Maybe look thru that thread and see if there are any mirror's posted in it? I got nothing to do, I'll take a gander for ya in a sec.
EDIT: I found it. Check out post #40 in that thread. I just downloaded it. The download works fine. If you want the sound, the link in the OP looks like it works, if not, I saw two other mirrors for the MP3 sound somewhere between post 10 and 40.
BTW, that download is not flashable. you'll need to put the file where it goes. It's easy, especially if you know a little adb, it'll take 20 seconds. If not, using root explorer or ES file explorer can get the job done.
EDIT2: attatched the animation for you.

i'll take a look as well, don't want you to be having all the fun

Its in there, page 4 or 5

damn it its not flashable.
gotta learn how to do it the other way now

Root explorer works great-sweet find!

Couple quick questions to help me help you get it installed.
1) What rom are you currently on
2) Do you have a root level file explorer such as Root Explorer, or ES File explorer?
3) Do you have adb set up to use on your computer?
4) If you're on a sense rom, I might be able to make a flashable zip for you, let me know.

Try flashing this. It should work. Make a nandroid backup first, just in case. Unless you already have a current one.

yeah it worked but no sound?
edit: that was fastest bootloader i have ever had lol 6 or 7 seconds tops

Ooops. I forgot to edit the sound file. Sorry. I can edit and re upload it, or all you'd need to do is open up the zip you downloaded. Click the folder that says system. then click customize. then click resource. then you'll see the bootanimation.zip and the mp3 file. rename the mp3 file to SPC_animation_final. Or it might be spc_animation_final. I forget if the spc is capitals or not. It's one or the other. Then reflash it.
Edit> and what do you mean that was the fastest bootloader? The fastest it's ever booted up you mean? confused.

k done. do i just reboot my phone to see if it works or do i gotta flash again

Once you edited it, flash it again. And also, as I said, I don't remember if it's spc_animation_final or if it's SPC_animation_final. And I may have not been clear, but make sure that when you renamed it, you left the .mp3 extension on the file. It needs to be there.

yeah i know. flashing now. 1 min bud

Bootanimation- Android Andy pees on Apple- My favorite

Here is a resized version of the android pee on Apple bootanimation that I found on the Rom toolbox but for some reason wouldn't display on my note 2 even if I resized within the application.To me it's much better lookin than the fat tinkle peeling droid that I found here and its resized correctly. Credit goes to the original animation author which I have no clue whom that may be.
Here's the sample I uploaded to YouTube for you guys
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vphIEzGJuno&feature=youtube_gdata_player
are u rooted? if yes... then do these steps verbatim to change your boot animation on your note 2.
STEP 1: download THIS file and do NOT extract it or anything (use your computer or phone... its like 100mb so i reckon you best be on WiFey to be safer from a broken dload)
STEP 2:
if using your computer to download , plug ur phone in to mount usb and moved the file to your sd card or your internal memory [ EX:Computer\SPH-L900\Phone or Computer\SPH-L900\Card ] (OR use a program like Android Commander to make things a little easier and put the file directly into the /system/media directory of your phone.... hint:the 'system' folder is located in the PARENT FOLDER of your SDCARD directory .... aka your ROOT directory)
if downloaded using your phone browser.... just use any root file manager (eg:I use ROM Toolbox Pro's Root file Browser,but there are dozens of other app like root explorer, ES File Explorer File Manager, ASTRO file Manager i think works too if u have the pro version but dont hold me to it) and use the Move to or the Copy To feature within any of those apps to move the file manually to your /system/media/ directory. You can just overwrite the one that is already there or just add a .bak or .EAD or .GTH to the end of the file name of the file you wanna backup thats already there BEFORE moving the new Android Peeing animation you downloaded in the first step.
IMPORTANT- DO NOT RENAME OR EXTRACT THE ZIP FILE YOU DOWNLOADED IN STEP 1... the file MUST BE NAMED bootanimation.zip
STEP 3- Using your root file managing joint appy proggy thingys Permissions editor (normally u just long click the file you wanna set permissions for and the edit permissions option will pop up somewhere) set the pemissions (or verify them) to this...
OWNER- READ WRITE
GROUP- READ
OTHERS- READ
or another way of saying this is RW-R--R--
Step 4 - SAVE or ACCEPT changes....
Step 5 - Reboot to make sure bootanimation is changed
Step 6 - Reboot again in a busy elevator or place where some iPhags can see over your shoulder.... and grin maliciously. :angel:
Step 7- :highfive: click the thanks button if u want or pm me if u have some bitcoins u managed to accumulate somehow and wanna donate em to me

BOSS!!!

i noticed the file was already labeled "bootanimation.zip" so i copied it as it as renaming the original. the only thing about my phone is that im running MacksROM All Star 2.5 rather than stock but i dont think that would make any difference.

hmm.... try redownloading the file and replace the file u just tried with the one u just downloaded and then rename as necessary. i dont think ma7 changed the location of where it fetches the boot ani.... but im still running LjC. but running macks rom 5.0 which is basically the same rom as the allstar rom you are using minus without the Ma7 goodies. but anyway try what i mentioned real quick and see if maybe it was just a corrupt or incomplete download or transfer to your device if u used the computer. meantime ill see whats involved in making it a flashable zip or if my feeble mind cant wrap itself around how that works... maybe someone here will post a flashable version for ya. :fingers-crossed:

Need help in getting back Stock Boot animation on Tab S 8.4

I tried looking around but most guides/remedies seem to be for androids in general, kinda a noob at this so I apologize if this counts as spam.
I would be very thankful if someone could help me out with this recently after flashing ironrom I have this hideuous frog boot animation which replaces my stock one and I tried backing up my stock one and replacing it but when I replaced it, there was no change. I backed up before flashing the rom.
I checked in system/media there were a few boot-related files I think but I'm not sure, going into bin I found bootanimation but it didn't have the .zip extension.
Also, I can't seem to find the bootanimation.zip like most guides on replacing bootanimation tell you to do, some pointers would be helpful.
**Thanks in advance!**

Did that still black boot screen plus with the new shutdown animation (which was previously working) the resolution is halfed.
I'm thinking I should just reflash to stock since nothing is working but I'd really like to leave that as last resort as this seems like a really trivial problem which I'm just not handling correctly thus the many complications.

Something isn't making sense here, which Root File Explorer do you use?
You should just be able to copy all 3 qmg files from the previous Ironrom or any LP rom for your device and put them in that folder.
That should be it.

At the moment the files don't have any permissions at all.
They need to be set r-r-r-w.
Apart from that I see no reason for it not to work.

The ones in the screenshots have total access. I have tried limiting it to r-r-r-w with no luck difference.
Seems like the shutdown animation works though (it did before) but now the lower half is grey probably due to the different resolution size.

I suggest you reflash Ironrom without wiping. At least you'll get back your animations.
Then I'd back them up and try again.
One thing to note is that the t805 version of Ironrom doesn't have this frog boot animation.
Can you send me your frog animation?

Alright I'll do that as soon as I have access to my computer, but for now if you'd like to know more about it just head over to the sm-t705 ironrom lollipop update, , many mentions of the animations in the thread.

Ended up reflashing to stock firmware, will probably go back to ironrom if they have an update without that animation ^^
