Yeah, if you root. Some kernels/roms allow custom boot animations. Better of in the http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=666 section. Here some guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857596&highlight=bootanimation no idea how accurate

Oh not the boot animation the boot splash thats the screen before the boot animation, the lg logo i want to chance that
To the best of my knowledge it can be changed but it will require quite a lot of work and some googling. I believe the boot splash is contained within bootloader, which I believe is a boot.IMG ull have extract that find the files to replace. The hard part is the files are not just jpgs or pngs they are a obscure image format a quick Google showed someone found a way of converting them but the rest is up to you
Look for initlogo.rle. It is a file loaded by init on each boot, if it exists. It is located in root and by default you won't find it and you have to create one. You have to un- and repack the boot.img to edit that file.
The file has a special format. For more information, look here.
Also, keep in mind that this will not change the LG logo built into the bootloader. With our knowledge so far, it cannot be changed.

bootloop by boot animation ? rom toolbox is doing something wrong
look for any boot animation over forums and place it in system/media replacing the old bootanimation.zip and set right permissions and reboot
if something went wrong by placing bootanimation , device shell boot without bootanimation
check this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521643 , there is thousands more over forums

Custom bootanimation

Trying to swap it out in system/media/bootanimation.zip but it's not taking. Also tried replacing the sprint_bootanimation.zip but that didn't work either.
And yes, I changed permissions. Any advice
look in /carrier/cust/poweron
Thanks bro, it worked!
Edit: What bootani are you using? I'm using a Android M bootani I found on the International thread. Do you have a boot down ani?

Stock. I deleted the Sound on boot and that's why I knew where it was.
And for those that want to do the same
Using root explorer (had to mount R/W) if I recall, I renamed
/carrier/cust/poweron/PowerOn.ogg to /carrier/cust/poweron/PowerOn.ogg_
and
/carrier/cust/poweroff/PowerOff.ogg to /carrier/cust/poweroff/PowerOff.ogg_
Now it's silent on reboot.
Thanks again.
Hey guys I accidently replaced the stock boot animation. Any chance one of you guys could upload the original boot animation from carrier/cust/poweron ? Thank you!

Look in system/media/audio/PowerOn.ogg, PowerOff.ogg
I renamed it here and in /carrier/cust/... for ZV6
Ok, so I'm trying to swap out my boot animation and I'm just getting the default Android one. I've renamed the bootanimation.zip in /carrier/cust/ as well as /system/media/ to bootanimation.zip.bak and copied the replacement bootanimation.zip into the /system/media/ directory and changed the permissions to rw-r-r (644) and still nothing. I'm currently on a rooted ZV6 build. Anybody got any ideas? Am I missing something?

MM will not support sound in the boot animation, only a carrier added boot animation, that's added to the device, and not through the normal way a boot animation is added, will it support sound.

That's what i thought thanks for the info. I'd like to research that special way/reverse engineer
I think that google let sounds in the boot animations up ice cream sandwich, then stopped letting in sounds. buts that's official boot animations. about the provider animations I am clueless.
Just need to find someone with stock Boot so i can look in the usual places first need to see the desc.txt file and that will point me in the right direction

This is the bootanimation.zip file from the oem/media folder on my Nexus 6. I'm pretty sure this is what you are looking for but if not let me know and I'll try to help further.

Am i the only 1 who can't change the boot animation?!

Hello,
My device is running nougat with an unlocked bootloader, custom recovery and rooted.
I tried to change my boot animation via /system/media and I gave a permission to read/write but it doesn't work then I tried a flashable boot animation but it kept the same.
Can someone point me where I am wrong?
Anything would be appreciated

PRODUCT\etc\media\bootanimation.zip
how did you expect it to work if there is no bootanimation.zip in system\media ?
however rebooting is not good for the performance of your device just like killing background apps all the time and its not even battery friendly but have fun.

Thank you my friend, It works
but believe there is another bootanimation there
Anyway, why you don't recommend changing it? :laugh:

You should not reboot your device too often maybe once a week.
Changing to a fancy bootanimation just lead you to rebooting
