I would like to change the boot animation on my Verizon G4, but I'm scared to without TWRP. I was curious if any of you braver souls have done so successfully yet?

You won't be able to without a recovery
Ah, ok. I thought all you had to do was use something like Root Browser to move a new Bootanimation.zip to the System Media folder.
Good thing I asked first!

Not sure if it works that way, but I def wouldn't try it haha
well.. worst case.. you cant boot back into system and have to reflash the system.img thru download mode. keep the rooted system.img on internal sdcard for any risky changes. then ur only a few minutes away from a fix. but as long as u set the proper permissions on the files you're replacing it should go ok and you wont even run into this worst case situation.
with that said.. I don't own the vzw model so I havent swapped theirs out specifically.. but I have changed my boot ani on my h815. if you're not sure which permissions you need to set on the file... just view the permissions of the original file thru rootexplorer/es file explorer... then set those back to your new file afterwards.

Just rename the old bootanimation zip to .bak move the one you want into place and change permissions to 644 in root browser.
Unless the boot loader checks file sizes and signatures which I doubt for the boot animations.
Yeah, I tried it yesterday. It bootlooped twice then booted with no bootanimation. YMMV

Your permissions were wrong you want them to be 644.
I used solid explorer on my T-Mobile unit to remove that gods awful boot sound and install the nexus boot animation, forgot to set permissions and that's what happened boot without animation

i did the same. the goddamn at&t poweron.ogg is annoying as hell.
Yeah, I have liveboot running, and a wireframe spinning android dude animation in the background. Little more interesting than the default.
I got brave and decided to try out some boot animations I downloaded the other day from a G3 Boot Animation thread.
I moved them with Root Browser and made sure to set permissions to 644 and it worked!
For some reason though the one I download of the Super heroes that change? Maybe you know what I'm talking about. Had it on Nexus 6 and it was fast and fluid. On the G4 here it was in slow motion and stuttering. Don't know if that's a fault of the -G4 or the source file though.
Bottom line, changing the Bootanimation.zip manually works just fine as long as you remember to set the permissions.
Worked for me too

Sure you can. I did just that on a rooted AT&T version. Used Root Explorer, renamed existing file to .orig. Copied new file from SD card. rebooted, and boom.
Changed my bootanimation the minute we got root. Using the stock LG instead of the Verizon one.

Worked great. I use the LG G3 Matrix Boot Animation found here on xda. Couldn't find any shutdown Animation. Renamed BOTH (bootanimation and shutdown Animation from zip to zip.back). Works great. No Shutdown Animation anymore is just fine with me! [emoji1]

Set/change the permissions... how do you do that? I have and use root explorer, first thing i did with root was remove a lot of UI sounds entirely (.bak for their original files) includingthe startup sounds.

In root explorer long press the file and in the pop up select permissions. 0644 looks like a backwards 7 in the checkboxes.

Ive been having a problem getting custom boot animations to work. I'm using the voodoo kernel by dirrk d02 1200sv and I am rooted. I've tried several animations moving bootanimation.zip to both system/media and local/data (i did not unzip them) and renamed the old one...but all I get is a blank screen. I can get the sound to work but just no images. Another thing I noticed is my /data folder keeps reverting permissions on reboot to -d I've used chmod via busybox to change to read write..it works but as soon as I reboot it reverts back. I am not sure if this has something to do with it or not. I did search for solution but couldn't find anything. This is my first android phone but not my first smartphone (owned several palm and win mobile phones)..btw this is so much better than my touch pro2. Thanks again and apologize for my noobism

Great! I finally helped somebody else...LOL. Here's a good post with some more boot animations:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=805758
I too tried both kernels, neither worked.
What worked for me was bootchanger by {n8} I installed that and would recommend it to anyone. Its free, and it downloads and automatically applies the bootanimation. I set that up and installed my peeing on Apple one, and I was ALL GOOD. Worked like a charm. Haven't messed with it cuz well, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"
Well I finally got it working. It turns out I need to use adb to push the bootanimation file. If I use Astro Manager or any other program from the phone to transfer, it doesnt work. I guess I learn something new everyday

Well, I've got a black screen on boot now, and that's all I get, no matter what bootanimation.zip file I choose. I've reflashed the kernal several times, to no avail. The phone works fine, but nothing at all shows up on the screen. I've cleared the cache and all that. Phone is still rooted, and root explorer works.
Any ideas? I've tried everything I can think of and I'm beyond stumped.
for what its worth, I copied the bootanimation to both /data/local and /system/media to be safe

I tried that too. Didn't do the trick. I'm still getting blackness with the startup sound. I might do an Odin restore to that factory image and then redo everything again. I really want to see if my home-made startup animation works, but I want to test it on my own phone before posting it online and locking up someone else's.
Hi,
I just tried to install a custom boot animation thru root explorer, following Master's instructions. When I go to paste the boot animation it says cannot paste read only. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

I am not familiar with "Root Explorer", so i'm not 100% sure.
You most likely need to enable the root feature.
if you do not have root access you cannot paste into a -ro file.
You could also use Android Commander (Windows Program). I find that the easiest way to do it.
I am perma rooted (s= off) and root explorer has root privlages, so I dont know what else to say. Master's directions were very clear & easy it just wont allow me to paste.

in root explorer, at the very top of the page youre pasting in, there should be a button that says set r/w. make sure to press that before attempting to paste, otherwise you will get the error you mentioned.
Thanks, I did that and it pasted. I ended up with two files in there and had no boot animation at all and when powering up it went directly to the lock screen. Since that I restored my backup to undo the changes I made. I dont know what went wrong, but would like to try again, as I do want a cool boot animation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

have you tried using Android Commander?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11104925&postcount=53
to check the boot animation from the terminal type "adb shell" a "#" should appear then type bootanimation. it should so up on the phone, to get out of it hold control and tap C. If you do it from the terminal emulator on the phone only a battery pull will get you out of the cycle.

Dude, what Rom are you on? Depending on that, the bootainmation needs to be labeled differently.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Depending on the rom, you will also need to rename the boot animation to the same name as the one on the current rom... for instance on my iced glacier rom, the standard boot animation is named TMUS_bootanimation, rename the file to that same file name and copy it to the same folder and select to over ride the current file in the folder

I have a special request. Is there a way to retain the bootanimation of the NookColor's 1.2 Stock ROM? Or at least can someone create a bootanimation.zip that has the Stock ROM's boot animation? I can provide you an original nandroid of the STOCK ROM if it's needed. I hope someone can do this.
Here... extract this zip file, remount /system/ rw and adb the bootanimation (NOT the zip) to /system/bin/ and you will have B&N's 1.2 stock animation.

UPDATE:
erm... it didn't work for me. Once I placed the content of the zip (bootanimation), in the system/bin it just gave me a blank screen then it went straight to my homescreen. What am I doing wrong? well maybe because I placed the file manually using root explorer. can you tell me how to do it using adb in windows and adb wireless on the nook? what commands should I put on the adb?
UPDATE 2:
I was able to push the file using adb. It still didn't work for me. Maybe we're missing some files? I remember when I'm putting custom bootanimations, I also place a bootanimation.zip in the /system/media directory of the nook...

I know most had a zip in /system/media.... but the stock 1.2 didn't have anything related.... looking through the file I posted, it references some .png files that also are not present...

Maybe the way Root Tools works will show the way.

Just thought it would be cool to retain the stock bootanimation, that's all. The device is still a NookColor after all, even after installing a CyanogenMod ROM in it. It would be nice if the device would say 'NookColor' when it boots. Just my opinion, though.

It needs to be in the correct format. If you can break it down, it will work:
http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Boot_Animation_editing_and_replacement
So maybe play it in the SDK, and record the screen?

When I thought that all hope seems lost on my desire to get the NC's stock bootanimation, in my NC running cyanogenmod, I came across this amazing stock-that-has-been-rooted bootanimation in YouTube... I think it's fate. LOL.

Put the bootanimation.zip file in the /data/local folder. It will override the bootanimation in the system/bin as long as it's there. If you delete it, the stock animation in /system/bin will show. FWIW, I like this animation from NookDevs which is a variation on the stock animation:

Even if VZW fixes Hot Spot, there is a Tether patch available that will allow the hot spot to bypass the subscription check. Runandhide05 made up a .zip yesterday for the N2 running 4.3 and it works flawless.
Does this zip work for non-root, or only rooted N3s?

Modded it already, its been tested and confirmed working by open1your1eyes0. Download here
you have to rename it to framework-res.apk.
Edit: I assume you know you have to either flash this with a zip or copy it to /system first then change its permissions to rw-r--r-- (chmod 644) and then MOVE it to /system/framework and overwrite framework-res.apk (remember must rename N3-framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk prior to this step)
Simply copy and pasting will cause you to boot loop so instead move it to /system first and change the permissions then and only then move it to /system/framework/ and overwrite the original

Out of curiosity, is there anything else on the /oem partition? Can someone post a complete file listing or partition image? Are there any driver/binary blobs, or are those all in /vendor? I imagine a "format /OEM" function will be really handy to have in all custome recoveries going forward, as an easy way to remove bloat without rooting.

Here is what was in mine:
/oem/lost+found/
(empty)
/oem/media/
/oem/media/ringtones/
/oem/media/ringtones/ATT_Catch_Me.mp3
/oem/media/ringtones/ATT_Firefly.mp3

/oem/media/bootanimation.zip
/oem/oem.prop
oem.prop contains one line:
"ro.config.ringtone=ATT_Firefly.mp3"
The entire oem partition looks completely useless and should be safe to nuke.
Edit:
I emptied the oem partition entirely. Going to do a quick round of testing and make sure nothing is messed up and report back.
Editx2: back!
Everything is working great. The only thing I noticed is that the call ringtone was initially set to "Unknown ringtone" after first boot. It was probably set by oem.prop and then couldn't find it after that. Just changed it to a different tone, works great.
