In many rom's bootanimation is present in the form of a ZIP Archive file! its bootanimation.zip in the media folder of system partition.. Just delete that.. Or if you only want to disable the bootanimation
Put this is build.prop in the /system partition:
Code:
debug.sf.nobootanimation = 1
This may not work with every device.. But trying isn't that bad

[Q] Boot Animations Q ?

Why do boot animation zip only work if the file name is bootanimation.zip versus something like bootanimation_droid_eye.zip. It makes it hard to tell which one your putting to use

because thats what the system is looking for when booting (bootanimation.zip) so without modifying how the system works its best to just rename whatever bootanimation you dl'd to bootanimation.zip

[Q] Help - Stuck with ICS bootanimation

Hi All,
I had flashed the bootanimation from the Nexus Prime on my X10i and it was working fine. But now I am not able to change the bootanimation by any means and am stuck with the Nexus boot animation.
I have tried flashing the stock bootanimation.zip through xrecovery, as well as tried replacing the file manually, but once i reboot, the phone reverts to the old boot animation.
How can i chnage by boot animation now???

Wrong section, Post your questions in Q & A section
Anyways go to /data/local & delete bootanimation.zip if there's any, then go to /system/media & delete bootanimation.zip if there's any, Then flash the new boot animation that you want
Did I mention wrong section?
Use root explorer or any file manager which can access root files, manually delete the bootanimation from systems/media and replace it with your file.

[SOLVED][Q] xmp stock ics boot animation mod

Hi,
Is there any mod, which has the stock android 4 boot animation (like this)
I found this Thread, but he stopped developing and I love the stock boot animation. Is there one I can flash with cwm?
Thx
Michael
You only need root access and some file manager to change your boot animation. CWM is not necessary.
Use file manager that can mount system partition (probably need to check 'allow mounting system partition' in the settings) and replace /system/media/bootanimation.zip with your own custom animation (of course you should rename/backup your old/original bootanimation file just in case). Afterwards set permission of bootanimation.zip file to rw/r/r.
Ask creator of that thread to send you bootanimation.zip file, and you're set to go. Also there are tools for that, so if you want to, you can create an animation yourself.
I changed my boot animation few days ago, using this thread. Hope it helps you.
Thanks a lot a few minutes before I had found the windows boot animation too.
Here's a very nice site for boot animations. I'll try some

Samsung QMG Animation Boot - Post here as many as possible.

Galaxy Grand Prime Boot animations
As you know,samsung touchwiz new ROMs have a .qmg file format for their boot animations. This is a small tutorial on how to change your boot animations
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device. Make a nandroid backup just to be sure. I am just showing what you need to do.
You need to have a:
Rooted device
Aproximate knowledge
(Optional) Custom Recovery.
​Well,okay.
This is what you'll need to do:
Download the boot animation in a zip form wich has the qmg files. Be aware that our phone has a 960x540 resolution.
(Optional) Make a nandroid backup if you don't have one.
Flash the zip file.
Now,wait probably 5-6 seconds on the"Samsung GGP Powered by Android " screen,the system searches for the animation and "cooks" it.
Optional,if no Custom Recovery is installed​
Download the zip format file with qmg files. (probably you'll like to have ZArchiver,Es File manager or ay other file manager that you like)
Extract the files and replace them in the root/system/media. You'll see here your original qmg files,rename them .bak (eg. shutdown.qmg.bak) and change the permissions to rw-r-r.
Reboot and hope for the best.
USE THIS THREAD TO POST NEW BOOT ANIMATIONS.​You can freely post here you bootanimations if those are yours,if not POST THE AUTHOR'S LINK here.
!!! do not use mediafire for your/public bootanimations since it corrupts files and that's the last thing we want.
bro bootanimation is easy, i need help whit bootlogo plissssssss

[Boot Animation] Google Boot Animation With Sound for Moto G 2014

Hey Folks,
Lately, I've been searching for a boot animation which has sound in it and produces sound during boot. Recently my friend gave me one boot animation which has sound in it, I have tested this animation on my MOTO G 2014 (TITAN) and it does produce sound during boot.
Tested this animation on AOSP Extended 3.0 & 3.1 ROMs & Resurrection Remix 5.8.1 for TITAN and in both the ROMS it worked fine
Here is what I found when I manually opened "bootanimation.zip" file with WinRAR, it contains part0, part1, part2 directories and a file named desc.txt which normally bootanimations have, but what I found new was that each part folder contains trim.txt which later I found that it contains data for coordinates of image to be placed on the screen while running boot animation.
The another thing which I found in the part2 folder was an audio file named "audio.wav". This file contained the audio which gets produced when the part2 of boot animation gets executed. Later I manually converted some random song to .wav and renamed it to "audio.wav" and put that file in part1 instead of part2, when I installed the boot animation, it worked
So in order to have sound on boot animation read How to do this below
HOW TO DO THIS:
1. You need a working boot animation which has frames and folders like "part0, part1, part2" and a desc.txt file. (This may also work on some STOCK ROMS, but I'm not sure).
2. Convert your favorite audio into WAVE (.wav) format and rename it to "audio.wav"
3. Put your "audio.wav" into any of the part folders i.e. in part0 or in part1, it doesn't matter because when boot animation runs that part it will produce sound
4. Compress the part0,part1,part2 & desc.txt to a zip file with no compression i.e. 0 compression and name it "bootanimation.zip"
5. Copy your modified "bootanimation.zip" to /system/media (Make sure to backup your original one)
6. Change file permissions to ( rw- r-- r--) and reboot your phone.
Tadaaa Now You'll Have a Bootanimation With SOUND.
I don't know the duration or length of audio to put inside boot animation, let me know if you find this, till then enjoy boot animation with sound
I've attached a link of a bootanimation. This one is same as AOSP Extended ROM's BootAnimation but with sound :laugh:

Great finding it works bro
Zip given by you works :good:, but when i tried to do with other ones the bootanimation didn't display, device started without any animation:
Can you add the black bootlogo too?
Coz i currently have the white one and it feels odd. THANKS!

Umm Ok.. Please make sure that the audio file is in .WAV format, no other file format works. Secondly make sure to compress zip file using PC, files compressed in android create problems. I've used WINRAR to make zip files and that works for me fine and make sure to have ZERO compression, if using winrar, I've attached screenshots.
If none of the above works, then compress the file using Boot Animation Factory you can download it and also learn how to use it from HERE

Alright bro, here you go, THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, and this is compiled for XT1068 whose resolution is 720x1280, to use this, extract the zip file, reboot your phone into bootloader mode and using fastboot flash the file, use the command:
Code:
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
MFASTBOOT is used for motorola phones to flash files in fastboot mode I don't know the reason, but in my case fastboot worked too
I MUST WARN YOU USE AT YOUR OWN RISK BUDDY, ALL THE BEST :good:
