Doesn't work for me. I'm running a deodex Stockish rom. Try the zip. Nope. Replaced the files. Nope. Don't know what the hell.
Are you using es file Explorer? If so make sure in settings it's set to root explorer. Also find sdfix. I've found when I flash a rom I have to run sdfix. Some don't. Sdfix is for the external card but I have found if you are having this problem you may also have a write to ExtSD also.
Hang on I will get to my computer and attach it to this post...

One more thing... RENAME the stock files and then hit refresh... If the renaming sticks your good to go with copying the new files... If not then make sure your root explorer is set correctly...

Awesome work. Great and simole explanation on manually renaming 1st in system/media, then pushing/copying files from extracted zip and pasting using root explorer to system/media. Then changing permission and reboot and all is well. I went with Android L boot animation and the crt shutdown. ..

Did you try changing the boot sound. I am trying to find a working app that can convert mp3 to ogg, know any?
ive changed various system sounds by just renaming the old ones with ".bak" after .zip and puttng the new mp3 sounds in and renaming them to ogg...works every time for me without the need to convert anything.. i like to have custom sounds for everything on my phone like opening the lock screen, plugging in the power,shut down and other stuff and thats the method ive always used and its always worked for me on several different phones .. just make sure you change the permissions then reboot .. problem solved .. enjoy

I don't know why it keeps happening but when I take the qmg files from your zips and copy them to system/media it pauses for a second then reboots. It won't even let me change the permissions. So I thought maybe if I copied them over to a different part of root and then changed the permissions there. I did that then copied them to system/media again and it didn't reboot so I manually rebooted and no boot animation displayed at all. Even if I flash the zip files nothing happens. I'm running a custom ROM but not sure if that has anything to do with it. I used flashify to try flashing the zips as well as just going into TWRP and flashing them from there. I tried ES File Explorer and Root Explorer. Not sure what else to do. It's not a big deal but thought I'd say something in case someone else has this problem. I would also like the Marvel boot animation if possible.

One would assume instead of replacing the SPR files(make it the VZW files with the ones you have ) and rename the files from fhe zip that you extract, change permissions rw-r-r 644, reboot and voila it should work.

For startup (rename to whatever it is in your root_system_media folder...most likely..
(For start up)
Vzw_bootsamsung.qmg
Vzw_bootsamsungloop.qmg

(For shutdown)
VZW_shutdown.qmg

You should really read the detail instructions how to manually push method. It does not matter what ROM (NIE/NK2 or any other ).
