Android, being an open source OS, is very easy to hack as per your needs. This also applies to the boot animation. You can actually change the boot animation as per your needs and taste! However, there are two things you need to keep in mind.
Once you’re sure about these factors, you can go ahead and change the boot animation on your phone.
Steps to be followed to change your phone’s boot animation:
Download a file explorer which can exploit root functionality, for example ES File Explorer (Available for free on the Play Store)Download a boot animation of your choice. XDA Forums have a few threads dedicated to boot animations, for example this one.Swipe right, and select ‘Root Explorer’. Next, Touch ‘Mount R/W’. This will make your system partition writeable.Navigate to /system/media/ on your Android phone, and if there’s a bootanimation.zip file, rename it to bootanimation.zip.bak. This is your phone’s original boot animation.Next, copy the boot animation you downloaded in step 2 to /system/media and check if the permissions are rw-r—r—. If not, change them to that.Done! Reboot, and enjoy!
