This will add the ability to use a custom bootanimation on any rom with any kernel and probably any samsung device.
It has been tested on the Note II but should work with any samsung device that uses samsungani to load boot animations. If it doesn't work for you please post here.
Uses the typical settings bootanimation is at /system/media/bootanimation.zip, this is for those using a stock rom or a rom the dev didn't add it in.
Original Samsung S4 animation is included .
The updater-script uses busybox to mount the partitions, so if it doesn't flash correctly install busybox from an app on the play store then try again.
Edited the attachment, now includes the bootanimation binary just in case in bootanimation4u.zip, there is also another one named Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only that only edits samsungani.
If /system/bin/bootanimation exists flash the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip
****** If you use a samsung phone , ONLY flash the Bootanimation4U.Samsungani.Only.zip file, otherwise you will only get a black boot screen .
How to use:
Add bootanimation.zip to /system/media
Flash Bootanimation4U.zip in recovery
If you want sound add an ogg file named PowerOn.ogg to /system/media/audio/ui, if sound doesn't work be sure /system/bin/samsungpowersoundplay exists if its there it will play sound if not its not included in your rom download it then put it where it belongs and fix the perms which should be rwxr-xr-x
Any boot animation you download must be renamed to bootanimation.zip and placed in /system/media/
to get bootanimation.zip files, download boot animations root from the google play store
1. Go into the app's preferences and change install location to /system/media/ and leave the default filename (bootanimation.zip) and go back to the main screen.
2. Select any bootanimation from the Server tab and hit Install. (Tablet ones at the bottom of the list look best.)
3. Select the installed bootanimation again and hit Resize. Set it to 720x1280 30FPS. ( i use 1090 X 1920
5. Tap the options key and select Preview current. Make sure you like it and reboot.
Reboot...Enjoy
I use this on my Verizon S4 KK 4.4.2 NC5, and it works Perfect.
This will set your device as Custom when you boot, will show Custon with the unlocked picture at boot. This doesnt affect anything, and no system files are affected .
