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

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.

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'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 .

im running Cognition (latest) and there is no bootanamation.zip
How do I delete the above mods without having to restore to an older backup or flash a new ROM?
I am well versed with the android system and if you tell me to shell rm or delete using root explorer I can... Also I figured out that a few files were replaced while flashing these mods... so any help would be appreciated....
What u can do is unzip the files and see where they are being placed and then delete from root explorer. If any files are being replaced, unzip ur flashable rom and pull the original files and then place in directories, overwriting the modified fikes

Hi I created a bootanimation and want to make it flashable. I followed tutorials from the net and xda. I got two files META-INF and system.
I put my bootanimation.zip in system/media. That's all. I didn't touch META-INF .
After flashing the zip in cwm, it says Installation aborted . Need Help please...
thats because the flashable zip wasnt for your phone
status 0 - wrong update binary
status 6 - wrong update script
here is my template for you
simply download it
open it in winrar (or if using phone just unzip everything)
open the system foler
you will notice a framework folder that is currently empty
you can leave this folder as it is
just create folders to where you want to flash the file to
for example your bootanimation.zip create the following
in the system folder create a folder called media
in the media folder place your bootanimation.zip
the same is true for any other files you want to flash
if you want to flash a file to system/framework just put a file in that folder
if you want to flash a file to system/app just create a folder called app in the system folder and put what you want to flash there
if on winrar you just have to open the zip and right click and create a folder - no need to unzip everything
if on phone and you have unzipped everything just zip everything back up when done
flashable zip template can be download from here
if you are using stock rom you need to enable custom boot animations first using the custom boot enabler zip
(if you already have a custom boot animation and bootanimation.zip working in a custom rom then you dont need to do this)

If just a bootanimanion, push using root browser only
Or using a another flashable bootanimation file and the replace the bootanimation.zip with yours

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!
