Removing Three Network boot logo - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've searched on this but can't find anything. I have a Three network Galaxy SIII that has been network unlocked and works on my O2 account. The only annoying thing is the Three network logo (in black on a white background) that runs at boot and closedown.
I found this thread that describes how to remove what I take to be a similar logo on a Motorola device but, on looking in the same directory, there is no similar directory. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2445150
Does anyone know where this lives on an SIII and how to remove it. I don't want to flash a custom ROM, just remove the ugly Three bootlogo.

These branded bootanimations are in Samsungs´ QMG format. You´ll need to replace the animations and you´re ready to go
I´ve created a flashable.zip for you with the Stock Samsung Bootanimations inside

Boot Logo if it is the splash screen that has replaced the initial Samsung S splash screen its not changeable .
If its the boot animation after the splash then delete the bootanimation files .
System/ Media / Bootsamsung QHG and Bootsamsungloop QMG .
Boot animation see Themes and apps .
Shutdown is System/ media/ video / shutdown/ shutdown QMG

Yeah 3 UK is just a boot animation. Although, there is other "Three crap" on the ROM too, so I would personally just flash latest unbranded BTU, but that's not to say that this is THE solution. Just A solution

Just flashed these. Big delay I know but that's another story.
Anyway. They all got copied into system/media The shutdown file was the only one that didn't replace an existing file and, sure enough, boot up now shows the Samsung S but shutdown still shows the Three logo. Anyone know where the three shutdown file is located?
Edit: Found it in system/media/videos/shutdown

have you looked in /system/media?
If your phone is running 2.3+, try putting it in system/media. Also, make sure read and write permissions are given to it. In addition, using a standard .zip boot animation will not work on a standard stock Samsung ROM.

In order to modify or change your boot animation you need a rooted phone...with root explorer check in /system/media, there should be "bootanimation.zip" & also depending on the anim. there might be 2 more files - in my case "bootsamsung.qmg" & "bootsamsungloop.qmg"

If u have a rooted phone and cmw you can flash a bootanimation.zip from it! is the simply way!

[Q] Removing the splash screen

Hello, yesterday I recieved a new S III from my operator (movistar) and I've been rooting it and cleaning all the **** it brought (preinstalled apps).
There's something that I can`t remove, the operator's splash screen. It appears every time I turn either on or off the phone and plays a short animation where the word "movistar" is showed. It's really annoying and I don`t know how to get rid of it.
For the moment, I've been looking for a "bootanimation.zip" in System/Media but there's just the Samsung boot animation (which I'd like to keep). I also deleted the "stk.apk" app but nothing changed.
If anyone know where can I find the operator's splash screen file in my phone in order to delete it I'd be really pleased.
Thank you,
Ferran
I suppose that the operator doesn`t really matter and that the splash screen is similar to a T-Mobile one or a 3 one. I'm sure there's a way of removing or changit it but I couldn`t find it on my own, help me please!
Boot splash screen .
Remove by flashing stock rom
Or use search to find the same question asked before and modify the required file yourself .
Boot splash logo is param partition
jje
bootanimation.zip is on: /system/bin/
folder. If i delete it the splash animation will disapear?

[Q] freezenooks rom wont play boot animation

Hi i hope someone can help , i have just installed freezenooks rom and done the usual reboots. I decided to put my bootanimation zip file in the /data/local file ( as normal) and rebooted. But the screen stayed black ( apart from the end) when it showed a very quick picture of the last picture of my boot animation.
Any ideas?
Update
I think what is happening is that the boot animation is running but ..its as if the brightness is set to dark , as I happened to see a part of the animation even though the screen is black
Maybe it's worth double-checking your desc.txt file and/or trying a known-good bootanimation.zip to rule out issues with your specific animation file?
yes i tried 3 other bootanimation zips , that also worked when on a previous rom ( like my own) . They all failed as well to work . So i don't think its the bootanimation zip.

[Q] How to remove bootsplash logo from s5310?

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a project in which I need to remove any logos during boot time.
Boot animation was easy, I have just removed bootanimation.zip and binary from /system/bin and nothing is shown
But I'm having problem with removing/changing that samsung galaxy pocket logo at boot.
This phone doesn't have initlogo.rle/logo.rle files I could change,
I have also tried no rle method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1795388 and there is no /common/driver/video/logo
but I have changed /driver/video/logo(not in /common) as in instructions and then I couldn't even boot into compiled kernel
Do you guys know any solutions for removing or changing bootsplash to all black? I can use custom rom or kernel for it if needed
Is hardy

[Q] Allwinner A33 boot logo change

Hello,
I have a Allwinner A33 tablet with Android 4.4.2 it's 1024x600, and I want to change boot logo (not bootanimation), it displays 2 logos at boot before bootanimation, and I want to change them, how can I do it?
I have found many posts about this but none for A33, I also do not have any boot/ROM for it...
Is there a way that I can backup the device, change the logo and send it back with the same boot but with my logo?
Thanks

Use dragon face to edit firm file
DragonFace
Hi,
Is this still the way to edit firmware files? I have tried DragonFace 2.5 but when I put the image back on the tablet it sits at the boot logo and doesnt go from there. Is there a tutorial on how to edit the logos and customise the preinstalled apps and desktop etc?
Thanks!

I am also facing the same issue. Even if I just save the firmware without making any changes in DragonFace, the device just freezes on the boot logo when flashed with Phoenix Suite.
Am i using the wrong combination of tools (Dragon Face to change the firmware and Phoenix Suite to Flash it)?
