I've done exactly what the tutorial says!
I don't know why it doesn't work for you...have you set the right permissions for bootanim and samsungani files? (I've done everything from root explorer)

edit: I've used the honeycomb blue from this thread:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=985251

just rename to sanim.zip and copy the file into /system/media
That's all

Sorry if my english is sooo bad...

It didn't work for me too, at first try . But then i saw this post, tried it, and it worked like a charm . (im using kezra v4 atm .)

Forget my question, I found the answer with just a bit of research. I'll leave it here as well in case someone wants to install a custom boot animation for whatever reason. To re-enable it I just edited the /system/build.prop file, deleting the "debug.sf.nobootanimation = 1" line.

or you can just edit it to 0 .

i edited that file using root browser ;)

I tried to use the same boot animation also but it didn't work even though i've followed the exact instructions. :(

Did you change anything on the desc.txt file inside the sanim.zip or changed some system files?

I'm using ginger ice 2.1 oc by the way and also set debug.sf.nobootanimation = 0.

Please advise. Thanks.

my steps :

1. get bootanimation and samsungani (custombooting.zip attachment) from this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1161354
2. get one of the boot animation from this thread (i choose honeycomb blue ;)) : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=985251
3. rename the bootanimation.zip to sanim.zip,
4. backed up samsungani and bootanimation in system/bin,
5. copied bootanimation and samsungani from step 1 to system/bin,
6. set permission rwx - rwx - r_x to both of the files (in my phone they set automatically using root browser),
7. copy sanim.zip from step 3 to system/media,
8. reboot, and awesomeness .

sorry if my steps above are little bit confusing, but that was my steps ;)

qzem said in his thread that gingerICE is :
modification of KezraPlane's rom V4.
so i believe the how-to-change-boot-animation is quite the same .

hope this helps .
