I recently tried to change the boot animation but could not find any bootanimation.zip. The only thing close to it was a file called bootanimation in system/bin. When I changed my custom bootanimation.zip to bootanimation and changed bootanimation to bootanimation.bak the new custom boot did not work. When I tried getting back the original boot animation it by changing it from bootanimation.bak to bootanimation it did not work and still was showing a black screen. I've checked permissions and anything I could find online but couldn't find a solution. Any help would be appreciated. Much thanks!

Stock Samsung don't work with boot animation.zip, but if you are with AOSP/Lineage based ROMs you find it in system/media folder.

Oh, thank you very much then! Do you happen to have any idea how to retrieve the stock boot animation? It's just a black screen now. Thanks for your response!
