So I used ROM toolbox to change the binary to enable custom boot animation on my note 4 n910f.
It didn't work so I reset it back to stock boot animation.
However it won't change back... when the phone boots it stays on "powered by android" screen until the phone fully boots up. Tried changing the .qmg to stock in system/media but no luck.
Any ideas? Thanks guys

Did you set permissions to ( rwrr ) in system/media ?

Yes, rom toolbox flashed the animations through twrp and automatically set permissions. I checked after and they was correct.

Probably boot animation file is currupted.
Download any note 4 in rom and open with root explorer and extract 3 files.from rom/system/media
Bootanimation.qmg
Bootanimation loop.qmg
Shutdown.qmg
Replece them then set permissions reboot

I recently flashed a custom boot and shut down animation. I am wanting to try a new one. Can I just flash the new boot animation? I am worried the shutdown animation will still be there. Since the new one ia only a boot. What are the steps to return to the stock animations? Thanks

Depending on the ROM you are using there should be a bootanimation.zip in the /system/media/ simply make a copy and then move any new bootanimation.zip to that location using root explorer.
This is only for the bootanimation you will need to repeat the steps respectively for shutdown animation as well. Good luck!
Hi, I have a GT-19505 using Omega ROM and faux123 kernel and I am unable to change the boot animation on my rooted phone.
I have tried copying bootanimation.zip to both system/media and data/local and the animation is still the Omega spinning disc, I have also ensured that the file has correct permissions using root explorer and I have tried to flash the file using TWRP (which failed). I would greatly appreciate it if anyone can provide any insight into this matter as it is like the only thing left I have to customise on my phone lol.
Thanks
Okay so I have a Nexus 4 with KitKat 4.4.2 and I recently flashed AOKP nightly 2014_02_02 and I tried to install a boot animation with romtoolbox. First I backed up my orginial boot animation and installed the aokp boot animation. It worked but when I tried to install my first one again it doesn't work it says it failed. If I install the aokp one it installs fine but every other one I try it doesn't work. Also when I open YouTube it says an error has occurred but everything still works. Gapps problem maybe? Please help me

The boot animation is located in system/media. Make sure ROM toolbox got that right.
You could try replacing it manually using a file explorer.
thanks

Hi guys,
I tried to install a custom boot animation onto my i9505 running CM12 and stupidly downloaded and installed the wrong resolution boot animation. Now when I reboot the Samsung logo shows up fine then the phone goes black for a while and boots up normally so there's no huge issue but I was wondering how I could recover the original CM boot animation/any animation at all. Have tried to flash a correct boot animation and tried to install it through system/media and changing permissions but still nothing seems to recover it. Any help on this is greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance,
Rohan
Here you go. This is the default Cyanogenmod boot animation that I extracted from my copy of AntaresOne's optimized CM12.1. Copy it over to system/media and let it overwrite the bugged one, then reboot.
If that boot animation is too plain for you, I have one in my signature that works.

Strephon, thank you very much for taking the time out to extract the boot animation from CM! Much appreciated. By overwrite I assume you just mean flash the zip through custom recovery or is there something else I should do?
Use a file explorer and physically copy it from your download location to /system/media.

Didn't work. Not quite sure what I've done ??? but I do appreciate your time and effort with this Strephon.
No problem. It didn't work because I forgot to tell you one important step. You have to set the permissions for the file to rw-r--r-- for Android to see it. The CM12 file manager should be able to do that.
