What boot animation are you trying to use? Post the link.
Most of them are flashable if they are in zip format, you do that through recovery. If the file is PC36IMG.zip though, that's through your boot loader.
Also what recovery are you on?

its alright, i really just want a rom that has close to outstanding battery life, then i want to be able to change to my favorite boot animation and a nice lockscreen and has tethering that works mine isn't working.

its just droid x one, i want with volume, and i dont get what you mean by what recovery? i have clockwork recovery when i go to recovery and ****

Clockwork recovery is your recovery. The name "recovery" is a little misleading personally but whatever. Anyhow, I dont think it's possible to get sounds on your boot animation since you are using miui (aosp roms don't have it built in). I think there is a thread around here about getting them, I just don't know where. Search for it if you like.
To get the actual animation though, just put the bootanimation.zip file on your sd card, not in any folders or anything. Then go into your recovery (clockwork), and flash bootanimation.zip from there. No need to wipe anything usually.
The instructions listed on that thread you linked are for doing it from your computer, a little more complicated than mine.

will try thanks

said that installiation aborted, can you recommened a rom to use? i'm still searching for a fav

MIUI lets you change boot animation and sound through the Theme Manager. The files are stored in different locations than on any other rom. If you'll link me to the file I'll make you a mtz file to use in Theme Manager and you can set any sound as the boot sound.

Try wiping cache and dalvik then reflashing the rom over itself. Don't wipe data and everything will be the way it was before the reflash. You can also try fixing permissions through Rom Manager or in Amon Ra recovery "fix apk uid mismatches". If you do both of these and the Theme Manager still doesn't work, the mtz file won't work.
I'm a little busy, but I'll go ahead and start on it. When I'm done I'll post it here along with directions assuming you get Theme Manager to work.

Well an mtz file won't work on that rom. I don't think the boot animation will work the way it's currently set up. I'll try it on my phone and see. If it doesn't work then the file names will need to be changed. I can do this for you but it will probably be tomorrow before I can finish it. If it works as is I will give you directions on how to get it working on that rom.

That's your keyboard, not the messaging app... if I understand your complaint. There are a few free keyboards on the market, or you can try the HTC IME Mod - it's here on xda.

Virtuous Sense 3.0 doubleshot espresso Rom Help

Ok so i downloaded the Rom and for a couple of weeks it was working perfectly but then something happened and my landscape support for rosie just stopped working and when i checked my Rosie scroll folder there were no files in it is there is that what is the problem is there anyway to fix this or do i need to reinstall the rom

Can anyone help mee??????????

I have been running the ROM for over a month and have not seen that at all. I have seen twice now a big unexplained lag. Also installing/uninstalling programs seems to lag just a bit as well.
Do you have a backup you can restore from instead of starting from scratch? I usually do a backup once a month or so just to keep something around.

Help

So I installed miui.us 1.99 and for some reason programs can't squire root access at all, has anyone had this problem? I installed hateslinger and back to miui again, reflashed it twice still the same outcome??? Thanx in advance;-)

*update* it's miui.us 1.99 I downgraded to 1.92 and it's fine, whew, scared me a bit:-o hope this helps someone;-)
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

If you would've gone to the miui.us front page, you would've seen this:
UPDATE NOTICE: Superuser Permissions need to be enabled via Superuser.apk menu enable superuser Permissions. (Superuser is found in Tools folder)
Not trying to be rude or whatever, just copying it over from the MIUI site...
But nobody really remembers to go to the front page
Other than that, 1.9.16 is up for download here
with changelog here

Or you could have read the last 20 pages of the MIUI thread where it says on every one of them to GO INTO SUPERUSER APP AND HIT MENU AND TOGGLE ON PERMISSIONS!!!!!
BTW, you may want to go update to MIUI 1.9.16 now....

I didn't need to read anything specific at that point, I'm qualified to enable software to work, that's not the point, I lost su permissions and yes I downloaded and enabled, didn't do ****, geek sqaud... Sorry, I'm pissy, I'm a tech, always PC... Android has been my new passion, sorry, Gates, I find the root of the problems, it was the newest 911 miui.us, thanks anyway, I hope someone finds this thread and stays with 1.92... js... out...

Update swype?

I downloaded the swype installer off the web site and it installs, but just recognizes that it is anyway. Is there a way to update to the latest version?

I'm assuming you went and joined the "beta" to get the installer...that would be the newest version available. So, if you download the installer and it says you're updated...than you are! I've got the most recent version (I believe) and I'm on v 3.25.91D.31083.t100 (you can find this by hitting menu>settings>language & keyboard>Swype at the very bottom should be the version #.

You may need to uninstall the 'stock' Swype before you can install the beta. I used TitaniumBackup (need to be rooted) and it worked fine. It can autospace one letter words correctly now.

click on backup/restore, scroll down to Swype, click on it and press wipe data, click on it again and press un-install...i usually press Menu, more and then clean up the dalvik cache.

Or you could download this and simply install it like a normal app.

I'm using Swype for the original Epic and it works 100% I just renamed the stock Swype with a ".bak" extension and left it in place.

do you still need to uninstall the old version to do this? Thanks

You need to either uninstall the old one or as another poster suggested, rename the stock swype.apk (I opted to keep the stock and renamed it to swype.apk.BAK.) Then install the .apk from the link in this thread and it will work. If you don't uninstall or rename the stock swype.apk, it will revert to stock on reboot.

Is this the all black modded Swype? If not anyone know where I can find it! Been searching high and low, oh yeah already googled

Make sure you delete libswype.so otherwise it will not work

pm commands dont stop OTA but check system/app folder to make sure that FOTAkill have proper permissions set.
Edit: Also there is another thread in here with some other choices if you have not tried them already

Just making sure. You did type su then hit enter before you put the disable code right

What rom are you running btw?
Have you backed up the rom then tried to take the update to see if it is really the ota and not something else?
Edit: Worse case scenario, I can edit the build.prop file so the ROM thinks it is a current ICS build so it won't nag you any longer either.

This seems to work i got it from thread pmcavalier2002 linked to

1st off im sorry if anyone feel that i am hi-jacking their thread but i tried this method amongst other apks with no success im not sure why but this apk only worked for a day or so then it was back to square one so i am posting something i discovered and it defiantly worked for me and am posting to help others who like me had no success in using one of those update kill apk's this method i discovered tested and soo far has rendered success for me im not sure if it will prevent future updates after ff18 but it defiantly stopped my phone currently running stock el29 gb from updating or even asking to update to ff8 ics update you must have root
i am not responsible for anyone who screws their phones up this is just something i tried and definatly helped me so i wanted to share
my phone had already downloaded the update and kept nagging to update every 10 minutes or so when and if you try my method do not delete the ics update that will be found in the search as this method needs the update there and needs it to fail any modifications done to the system such as deleting device management , debloating ,custom bootloader should all result in a failed update attempt and this is what you want
1st obtain root of-course
2nd obtain root explorer or something equivalent
3rd from root explorer on 1st page select menue and do a search for "update"
4th look for file " /data/data/com.sprint.ce.updater/shared_prefs/com.sprint.ce.updater_preferences.xml" you will see retry mode value by default it is set to true, change it to false ( if you change any system files such as deleting device management or running custom bootloader it will fail) you want it to fail , buy changing the true value to false and allowing it to try to update even though you know it will fail it wont come back up with nagging notice to update atleast it worked for me hope helps someone else out there p.s after failed update attempt it may get stuck in bootloader with triangle or something just do battery pull then reboot then voila no more annoying msgs asking to update ,nearly a week now and no pop ups for me
