How to change boot animation for rooted SGS?

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't find bootanimation.zip

Well, I have been looking for this file in every location I could find online, but this bootanimation.zip file is nowhere to be found!
I did find a file called bootanimation, but it's not a zip file.. it's in /system/bin
I did find the oemlogo.mbn it's in /cust/roundhound/au/logo .. but aside from that I can't find anything about the bootanimation.zip
Any ideas?
EDIT: After following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1014183
I opened the bootanimation file I found in the bin folder.. and I found these 3 locations in this file:
data/cust/media
data/local
system/media
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But bootanimation.zip is in Neither of these locations!!
Mine are in /system/media. I would just try putting a bootanimation in that folder and rebooting to see if it changes. Mine works fine.
COOL.. Thanks
Uhm otherwise it will be in /cust/hw/ideos_x/media or similar.
I've found needed bootanimation.zip after i loaded phone in purple screen mode. (volume-up+down + power)

[Q] Mytouch 4G orginal boot animation

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.

Replacing the bootanimation.zip

I have an old bootanimation.zip from my Droid1. The bootanimation.zip in my new RAZR M looks a bit different. Is it possible just to copy the current ZIP to my computer, replace the JPG's in there now with my old PNG files, zip it back up, and drop in the /system/media folder and assign the proper rights?
I attached the old ZIP file, and I am rooted.

Creating a Flashable zip problem

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
