I'm on xxjpy (darky's rom) right now and could someone post galaxy s's original or stock boot animation with sound? thanks.
I can't download it from fileserve and another person posted it on mediafire but it is private or deleted.
Don't reply this, i've found the solution
Would you please share the solution you found?

Why won't it? The original files (at least the boot animation) is still there. If the kernel detects a custom 'bootanimation.zip' then it uses that. If not, it uses default.

Its not a zip file like a custom animation .
Part of the OS drop bootfile animation in and that is read remove it and reverts to stock as first file read .

Well i have a Samsung Vibrant rooted with OCLF and running Launcher Pro. I tried to change my boot screen which i read up on here before doing. I read on this forum theres is 2 ways to actually do it, which is using the command on your pc which im not too good with codes so i tried the 2nd option which is to copy and paste using the Root Explorer. So i copied the bootanimation.zip from SD card while on mount r/w and paste it to system/media and then reboot. I still have the stock boot up not sure if i did something wrong, this is my 1st android phone which i like way better than my Icrap so any help will be appreciated.

Why dont you give this a try
USE THE GALAXY I9000 BOOTUP / SHUTDOWN ANIMATIONS & SOUND
rko did an awesome job with these flashable bootup/shutdown animations (place them on the /sdcard (internal memory) NOT sdcard/sd (external). Be sure and thank him for his work!

Thanks to s15274n
i tired it it doesnt work either comes up with error code
You have to have a rom that has a hacked kernel that allows for support of bootanimation.zip the stock vibrant rom does not have this ability (Thankyou Samsung), so simply putting the file in the correct folder will do nothing if you don't have the kernel that utilizes it. Currently there are 2 roms that will work with this:
Obsidian V2 - JK2 Official Froyo Based 2.2
or
Froyo Macnut R10
you put the .zip files in /system/media which is NOT the right way of doing it
extract the zip file anywhere on your desktop and copy the bootsamsung.qmg into your internal sdcard.
then run root explorer on your phone, copy the same .qmg file from your sdcard into /system/media folder

A bootanimation.zip is a zip with a series of images in it, there is no qmg in it. The OP was not asking about the qmg I don't think. He wants to be able to use his own bootscreens which cannot be done with qmg, only with bootanimation.zip and a hacked kernel.

obviously you didnt read what op said:

meaning hes dropping the whole zip file into /system/media through root explorer
i just told him the proper way of doing it as it was discussed here
the only mistake i did was use the "bootanimation.zip" as reference
since OP didnt even mention where he got the bootanimation.zip and i assumed things
im sorry about the confusion
ok sorry for the confusion and i thank you both for the responses.Lets see if i can explain it a little better.(It wont let me post a link but i found it here on XDA which is the THC boot up) the bootanimation.zip file i was trying to use which does not have the qmg for me to extract so i tried to put in system/media which did not work. Then i tried chichu_9 boot up screen which he recommended and did exactly as motoyola did which i extracted the qmg file and put in sd card (not external) then copy/paste into system/media which replaced the stock qmg file for the vibrant then i reboot and still stuck with the stock boot up screen. I am currently running Eugenes leaked 2.2 rom which works pretty good so far just cannot change boot screens for some reason so if i missed something or did something incorrect pls feel free to correct me and thanks in advance.....
I try to find bootanimation.zip in system/media but I only found .qmg file.

I used root expo to look my file.

You need to flash bootanimationsenabler zip. You might find it on Omega files app but not sure. If not just search it
Then you will be able to flash bootanimation zip files
I want to go back to using .qmg for boot animation but the rom im on ( Alliance ) is using bootanimation.zip now. How can i go back to .qmg?? thanks

Which Alliance? You could try this. Rename your bootanimation.zip by putting a .bak on the end. Then put this file (from inside zip) in your system/ bin folder. Set permissions to 755
If you are on Alliance NE9 you can now boot into safestrap and flash a custom bootanimation zip (with qmg files) and see if it works. If you are using the OA8, you will need to put your bootanimation files in manually. The permissions for those is 644.
I hosted a thread for a guy that goes by pas2001 that does great bootanimations using qmg files. It is over on the Galaxy S5 international forum and they work on our Galaxy S5s. Let me know if you'd like a link.

You might need this bootanimation bin file then. The small one called null is from stock OA8. Rename it.

Seems I already have that file in my bin folder with those permissions

Replace that file (again, renaming it first so you can restore it later if you wish) rename your bootanimation.zip file, and throw these into your system/media folder (take them out of this zip) and reboot.
Add this one too. It is your shut down animation. Set all of these to 644

You will need to put in .qmg files as these are the files that touchwiz uses rather than .zips, nothing will be altered with a .zip but if you find a .qmg file anywhere be sure to correctly rename it and give it the correct permissions, it may just be better to look up a more in-depth review as I am still a newbie to altering android using root and stuff, Hope I'm not too late!
So my favorite boot animation by far is the one that comes with NucleaRom, but I need to use a different rom. Could someone point me in a direction to extract the bootanimation from a certain rom and flash it on my current system? Was surprised to not find a guide to help me already.

@Amer532 ... Use a root empowered File Manager to go to /system/media and there you will find the current "bootanimation.zip" file. Copy it to a folder on your external sdcard then when you load your new rom, again go to /system/media and replace the existing file "bootanimation.zip" with the one you previously saved to your ext sdcard. That should do the trick. I should stress that the A2017U is a finiky device so I don't take any responsibility for anything that goes wrong. :fingers-crossed:

Ok thank you now I understand that the rom has to be installed to get to that "bootanimation.zip". Thanks for clearing that up for me XD
