Trying to see if anyone can do this. I have the qmg file for the stock sprint jelly bean. But it's in qmg. My rom only allows to read the animations from the bootanimation.zip file.

Does someone know how to convert?

Basically trying to do this on the animation with the Samsung text and the purple swirl that goes around it.

Flowed from my FreeGS3 3.0.0

It's proprietary Samsung format there is no conversion for it. If you would like to enable the stock functionality back to your phone then you will need to change the samsungani located in /system/bin back to the standard one and then the kernel will boot the stock qmg file instead of the bootanimation.zip

Hope that helps

What if my rom (CM10.1) doesn't have a samsungani would adding that file still override the bootamimation and play the .qmg file

If your running aosp all you need is the bootanimation.zip that you want to use. Drop it in system/media and give it these permissions.

Not really my question, I wanted to somehow let my AOSP rom run a .qmg file instead of AOSP's bootanimation.zip

Were you able to try it out? Did the kernal load samsungani with the target qmg files? I suspect the init scripts might also need changing. Please let me know if you have made any progress.
