I was looking for a change in scenery so I flashed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=54633858
But anyway, I didn't backup the stock boot animation files and I would like to go back to the old Verizon S5 boot animation but I cannot find them anywhere so I am requesting someone with root access to share the stock boot animation files.
Btw if you don't know, the files I'm looking for are:
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
shutdown.qmg
These are located in system/media

I have rooted my SGS and would like to change the boot animation to the original. I have already got the original boot animation .png files but I do not know how to replace it to current animation files.
Anybody?
if they are in the .qmg format, then i think you have to push your .qmg file to
system/media/
if they aren't then you have to make an update.zip file and put the files in appropriate folder and update your phone.
search the forum for more info on how to..
Can anyone tell me how to change the boot animation to the orginal mytouch 4g animation ?
I recently flashed virtuous unity 2.35 rom. It works great, but i really miss my original mytouch boot animation.
Please help, I need boot & shutdown animations......
In my opinion.. the easiest way to replace the boot animation is to use Root Explorer (or other r/w file explorer). Just navigate to the system/media directory. Then rename the bootanimation.zip file to old and copy it to your sdcard. Then place the bootanimation.zip file that you are going to use in the system/media directory. After you verify that the new animation works you can delete your backup if you like.
But i need the original boot animation files to replace the virtuous unity animations.
Is there any way to find it? Do anyone have a link?

Post 34...just rename and replace file as stated in post above yours....
The bootanimation on Sense ROMs resides in /system/customize/resource/ rather than /system/media.
Can someone please advise how I restore the default boot animations on the OMEGA rom? I have downloaded the file from the OMEGA files fileserver.
I tried placing the bootanimation.zip in /system/media and also tried to use install from TWRP.
I have tried searching but not finding the exact procedure.
Thanks

First, if you've tried flashing a .zip via TWRP or other recovery and your phone now goes blank between the S4 logo and the full boot you might have to contend with a broken boot animation... Personally it bothered me so much I reflashed Omega lol.
I downloaded on my phone the Samsung S5 boot/Shutdown animations.
Using E/S File explorer I first renamed the following files on the phone:
"/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg" => "/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg.old"
"/system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg" => "/system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg.old"
"/system/media/shutdown.qmg" => "/system/media/shutdown.qmg.old"
I decompressed the S5.zip archive.
I copied from the archive "S5.zip/system/media/bootsamsung.qmg", "S5.zip/system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg" and the "S5.zip/system/media/shutdown.qmg" into /system/media
Again using ES file explorer I set one by one the new file attrubutes so that they would be -wr-r--r--
Reboot the phone and voila - new boot animation.
If this works you can then delete the .old files in /system/media
If you want to load other boot animations there are enablers and disablers for the bootanimation.zip but I stayed clear as I want mine as standard as possible.

please help me i want to change my boot animation... thanks
Samsung's Touchwiz doesn't support bootanimation.zip but the QMG format. Search the S4 Themes and Apps subforum as there is a thread with custom boot animations in it that are compatible with Touchwiz. One of those should work for you. Otherwise you have to make your own, which requires Samsung software on the PC.
Working on something and I'm in need of a few files.
I've searched around and havnt been able to find them so I came here. This way I won't have to download the entire firmware and extract it.
I'm in need of these files:
bootsamsung.qmg
bootsamsungloop.qmg
shutdown.qmg
I need all 3 of those from Sprint and T-Mobile.
If you are on one of these firmwares, could you please copy them from /system/media and upload them please
Links to some really cool custom animations (qmg only) would be awesome too
Thanks
