So I recently rooted my Moto g5 Plus and made a custom boot animation for it. But when I replace my stock boot animation with my new one in system/media, when I go to view the .mp4 file it is the same as my stock animation, and whenever I boot the device, a series of black and white flashing lights just appear on the screen until the boot is finished. (I know how to fix this, I need help stopping the boot animation being replaced by stock.)
Anyone know how to stop the boot animation from being replaced by stock even though it is not stock? Thanks!
Same issue here. Stock Nougat + TWRP + Rooted. Able to hide N/A (unlocked bootloader) with the logo.bin. Can not replace boot animation. Tried Boot Animations for superuser from Google Play market, flashing with TWRP, replacement with Root Explorer. Default Moto animation still runs...
Is it possible to replace it at all? What method (including steps) 100% works?
It may be dm-verity doing this. You could install magisk and see if that prevents it from getting overwritten all the time.

Thank you. I've installed ElementalX Kernel and now boot animation is no longer overwritten.

I do not know if this question has been brought up before, but I am in desperate need of an answer. I recently got my 6P and immediately proceeded to unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP to start loading custom roms. I decided to start use Pure Nexus with it's accompanying gapps package but when I go to reboot the device, I am stuck at the circles boot animation. I decide to try CM13 nightlies and the same problem occurs. After searching online for some time, I realize I needed to flash a SuperSU file from recovery that flashes a custom boot.img. I flash Version 2.66 and restart the device. After 5+ minutes on the boot screen, I decided I am stuck still. What do I need to do, I am unable to boot the device.
Thanks.
I'd use Nexus Root Toolkit to unbrick your phone just so that it is working to start with. Then follow the steps more closely for installing a rom. You'll be doing something wrong, I've had no issues!! Best of luck with this.
hmm I'm not sure. this is happening to me right now as I try to restore my backups... maybe has to do with twrp's system handling/mounting, but I just don't know.
Hello guys, I need help trying to get my boot animation that I downloaded to work. I rooted my device with kingroot and it works perfectly that my device is rooted correctly. I used the root browser and boot animations app by Jrummy or something like that then I grabbed a watchdogs bootanimation on the net named bootanimation.zip, it is has two parts and has the resolution of my s4 at&t i337. I installed the zip to data/local (didn't work) I checked the permission status and made sure they read rw-r-r. Then I installed it to system/media and that still didn't work. I realized that the boot animations were not being overwritten so I tried to rename the boot animation.zip to bootsamsung.qmg to replace the stock manafactuar boot animation and no luck. I searched everywhere on the Internet for a answer and they provided the same one that didn't work. If you guys want screenshots or the zip I can try to post it. But I would appreciate some help ASAP.
Have you tried deleting the original boot animation zip, leaving only the custom one?
This should not cause any serious problems.
The worst thing that can happen is that you will have a black screen (because the boot animation was deleted) during the boot process.
Stock firmware doesn't support .zip bootanimation. You need to convert manually the bootanimation into .qmg.

This is the stitch boot logo. This is I repeat this is not a flashable zip.
Unzip and fastboot the logo.bin through fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot reboot
Thanks. But I need the whole stitich boot animation
This is the one am talking about.
I found some but they are for low res screens.

@felixtaf ... Can't understand that because I installed it on my A2017U before posting. Which leads me to say that when I uploaded it to XDA it came up with a strange comment in red in the post (you've probably seen it -- Attachment 4136033) which I have never seen before. I can only suggest that the upload was corrupted so I have added another to this post.
Without wishing to teach you how to suck eggs can I just state the following ..... After downloading, transfer it to your ext sd card, in TWRP go to "Install" and chose the file, let TWRP do it's thing. I don't suggest you don't know what you are doing it's just so strange that it doesn't work.
Yes, this works fine. Thanks
Jus flashed it via twrp and all fine ...
The one I posted before was not a TWRP flashable file, you need to place it in system/media and replace the bootanimation.zip file there (and set the 0644 permission)
Hi there!
I have some troubles with custom boot animation. The problem is that instead of any boot animation i have a samsung word on the screen for 5-7 seconds and after that system loads. I put the bootanimation.zip file correctly into the system/media folder but nothing happened. Also while I'm trying to use any animation from Boot animation root app still nothing is happening.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) with custom ROM: Viper-j5ltexx-7.1.2-Coral-v3.0-20170812-OFFICIAL
Any ideas how to solve it?
have you checked its permissions?
its permissions should be rw-r--r--
Yes i had 644.
Now it's working after re-flashing custom ROM. Probably after first flash something happened.
Hello Sirs.
Please tell me ways to upgrade my J5008( which is now converted to j500f ) to android version 6.0.1?
I think this thread might be usefull for You
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...m-cyanogenmod-13-0-samsung-galaxy-j5-t3519580
This is for Cyanogenmod based on 6.0.1 but with 5.1.1 android version you can use it.
I am puzzled by what's happening...
We got a new Moto G7 for my wife and following the instructions here https://www.the***********.com/install-twrp-root-moto-g7-plus-guide/, I successfully rooted the phone. However, there was a security update that needed to be installed, so with some great advice from ptn107, see https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...-trying-to-t3977463/post80429619#post80429619, I flashed the updated ROM onto the phone. (Note that I omitted 'fastboot erase userdata'. Also note that the warning message 'is-logical:<partition>: not found' was seen for all flash commands.)
The phone booted properly after the update, so I then went through the exact same rooting steps that had worked previously. However, this time, the phone gets stuck in a boot loop. I reflashed the ROM and can boot successfully, but the phone is no longer rooted. (I have tried this twice, with Magisk 19.3 and 19.4 - same result.)
Any ideas as to what I may be doing incorrectly? More importantly, what is the best way forward?
Thanks.
im dealing with the same issue. you can flash TWRP and go to advanced, fix boot loop, and that should get it to boot, but then you lose Magisk. May be a verity / checksum issue with the stock ROM. probably an easy fix but I dont have it.
EDIT: also you can flash the stock boot.img back and that will do the same thing, but again you lose Magisk/Root.
