Taken from the captivate forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803370
Just to give some info on what this is:
This is the 'libwebcore.so' file taken from the Galaxy Tab, and appears to be much better optimized than the stock one on the Captivate. The I9000 libwebcore is probably the same as the Captivate one, so this fix should work just fine for us too. libwebcore.so is the main library used by the browser to render pages (not javascript, just the html itself). It's the "core" library of WebKit HTML.
So basically: it is a very good idea to do this fix!
EDIT: Woops!
The browser is aslmost the only part where I didn't notice any lag on my SGS (rooted and lagfixed). By the way if it's relatevely safe I might give it a try. Thanks for the tip and info!
I screwed up my phone doing this
dxjp1 libwebcore.so filesize is 5,182,976 bytes, slightly different from the galaxy tab libwebcore.so of 5,187,072 bytes.
For info, the website browsing of dxjp1 was pretty smooth, even when flash is set to always on.
p/s : i uploaded the libwebcore.so in case others wants to try it too.
just unzip and place it in the /system/lib/ folder.
happy comparing.
Thanks, will try it later on
Well, I've loaded this up on my phone and set file permissions per the post and it seems to work well. Not sure how much better it is than the stock one but it's always fun trying something new.!
Thanks. It works on the ZUJP2 firmware. The file is EXACTLY the same size, but are different (I did an MD5 hash to check).
Could this work on eclair?

Sorry, but could anyone inform if I just have to replace the file using astro file explorer or that kinds of apps? Or it's necessary to create an update.zip for that?

what firmware are you having? eclair 2.1 or froyo 2.2? Not sure if this is compatible with eclair.

use root explorer (available in the market) to replace the file. but before that, please make sure you backup your original .so file somewhere.
as to the setting of permission, root explorer would be able to do that, or alternatively, issue an adb command, which was found in the link posted in the first post.

I managed to mess up my file, I believe. Ignore me.
Not really sure how I ended up with a 1.5mb file to be honest! Sorry for that!
tried this with success, browser is pretty fast now ;-)
edit: Firmware JPK
Browser Steel
I copied it in and set permissions and now my phone vibrates and internet crashes...
I copied the old one in... and it crashed also ?? strange ...
any ideas ?
EDIT: Got it now ^^ I just didnt Reboot.
Will it help when using Dolphin HD or Opera Mini?

3D Gallery extracted from JPM for user still using Eclair 2.1
Improvements
Faster Image display and browsing speed
Instructions
download 3DGallery.apk
use rootexplorer
copy downloaded 3DGallery.apk to /system/app
Enjoy the new faster speed
does not work on i9000XWJG5 (black screen)
as with the email client port from samsung tab, maybe you have to rename original files to gallery3d.apk.original and gallery3d.odex.original and then place this apk file to /system/apps............
Works perfectly on JM1, tyvm. It's 10x faster than the Eclair one!
Stock JM1:
1. renamed original files as sugested.
2. placed the new apk in system/apps/
3. restarted phone
result => huge difference! thank you.
Works perfectly on jm8 with Tauytama. Didn't even have to rename the file. Thank you !!
Worked on TMN branded JM8. It's much faster now. Thanks

PS: Does someone know when there will be the first Custom Roms for this Phone because than it would be worth it to wait?
I'm having the same problem as well; accidentally deleted--frankly I don't recall doing it--my stock browser, which is my preferred browser.
Can anyone point me to where I can download it from? Or upload the .apk here? I downloaded the improved deodexed browser from another thread but am not able to install it despite changing the permissions and using root explorer. If I save the browser from Galaxy S, will it be the same?
TIA.

hey guys can somebody help me with this boot animation, it works ok with the preview app. bit blocky, but upload to phone and it just show the old android screen.
I'd say correct filenames- in both part0 and part1 everything "under 10" has 1 digit less (just add 0).
On the other hand- if you want this to be displayed in loop part0 is only necessary, there's no need for part1
confused so do i need to add a extra digit to the numbers under 10?
IMO yes, you have to. I didn't come across any bootanimation which used different lenghts of filenames.
ok changed the numbers used root explorer placed it in system/customize/resource
and still get the android rather than my animation.
Shouldn't bootanimation be placed in system/media/ or data/local/?
i read that but im sure the original was from resource so i just plonked it back any way ill give that a try! cheers

Restore the ability to play mp4 bootanimation from stock motorola ROM
Remove the .txt from file in attachments and put the file in system/bin and replace the original one
Don't forget to make a backup in case anything goes wrong
After that you'll be able to use the mp4 bootanimation.zip from stock rom
I've tried this in many roms from different devices and everything works fine

yeay, it work on PA 4.44 . thanks man
I finally got this to work....
I have the Boostmobile CDMA XT1031 variant and I am running Stock 4.4.4.+Xposed.
I had to manually set the permissions of that bootanimation file of yours to: rwxr-xr-x.
All that work to get the Android L boot animation to work on stock!
Didn't worked for me at first try then I did this:
1) Change the permissions of the bootanimation file that you pasted in system/bin (change it to -rwxr-xr-x)
2) Change the permissions of bootanimation.zip that you pasted in system/media and change the permission as you changed it for above file.
3) Reboot and enjoy!
Very nice!! :good:
I will make a flasheable zip to it easy!
Please port it to CM12
I'm using your script since i bought my phone, Its awesome
But in latest CM12 its not working anymore

It worked on my Boost Mobile moto g (xt1031). At first I had problems but then I realized that I forgot to change permissions ?. Here is the install method: (I don't know much about the features when you post so I guess you'll have to share this reply somehow for those that have problems and could have some help)
1. Backup "bootanimation" located in system/bin (I just make a folder in my Downloads calling it backup______ and place it in there)
2. Rename attachment from "bootanimation.txt" to "bootanimation" Copy and paste the "bootanimation" into system/bin (yes you replace it (or overwrite whatever ot says).
3. Change file's permissions to rwxr-xr-x
4. There is no "4" you're done. However, if you have a theme loaded in your rom I think you're going to have to update the boot animation back to stock in your theme settings.
Restoring:
1. Rename backup to "bootanimation" and paste to system/bin.
2. Change permissions to rwxr-xr-x
If you need help i'll try to help based on what I know

Ashyx is one of the most helpful and knowledgeable people on the forum. He gave you a simple answer that for most of us would be more than enough given how few seconds it takes to download 1.4gb files. You asked for the file and if no one posted it I think it is kind when someone posts a response on how to get it. You might not want to be so dismissive and rude to one of the people who provides countless answers to others on here. Just my two cents...one could say people used to not be so lazy you know.
