Add Custom Boot Animation to any Samsung ROM-min

Boot Animation: when you turn on the power of your Android device or re-start it, that first screen which appears with brand name or logo, is called boot screen.

You can customise with a custom boot animation and get rid off annoying boot animation.

Custom Boot Animation in any Samsung ROM:  Some mobile manufacturers like Samsung don’t like the open nature of Android, at times device manufacturers make ridiculous decisions in an attempt to set their devices apart from those of the competitors.

Samsung’s choice of using a proprietary QMG format for its boot animations. QMG format is only used in Samsung devices, which is different from Android’s default boot animation file. The QMG files need to be created using the expensive Qmage commercial software, thus effectively barring the average consumer from cooking up their own. Which stops a user to set custom boot animation in Samsung device. But using this trick, you can set a custom boot animation.
