Hi,
I just installed the JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_155-002_DEBLUR ROM on my Defy.
I really liked the default boot animation of this ROM and want to backup it.
I searched on /system/media and on /data/local without success.
Anyone knows where is located the file?
Thanks in advance.

I've searched other threads unsucessfuly, I accidently deleted the aosp keyboard on CM6. Does anyone have it, or have a link to where I can get it? Thanks, I don't want to reflash if I don't have too
I think I have seen it before, but forget which thread. the easiest way is probably to just download the cyanogen rom, extract it& get the LatinIME.apk from the /system/app folder ( I think that's the directory )
Hi, i am looking for the boot animation in the MIUI Rom and simply can't find it. Hopefully someone can point me to the right direction as i don't like the one that comes with S-Murphys Rom. Thanks!
I believe he has it stored in the folder system/media.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the reply but i have already checked that and it seems that there are only the Recovery.img and Audio there. Thanks though

Have you tried flashing an animation of your choice from the UOT kitchen? That should overwrite it.
The UOT kitchen themes overwrite /system/media/bootanimation.zip
The MIUI-au rom doesn't seem to use this file (as there is no such file on the device).
For me, flashing a kitchen theme resulted in my phone hanging at boot time with the MIUI rom's boot animation, so I don't think that will work.
We do have a /system/bin/bootanimation, but that's an executable file. Maybe if we overwrite that with the executable from another ROM which does use /system/media/bootanimation.zip?

Uh, oh..My bad. Sorry abt the suggestion! Thanks for the info
Well, after asking S-Murphy, i found out that you just have to place the one you like in System\media before flashing thats it Thanks for the suggestions!
Hello Everyone,
I customized the rom.zip from the official gingerbread update and removed the new hboot. I flashed this new rom to my s-off desire. After that I rooted the rom via recovery by installing su-binary and superuser apk. Everything is fine.
Now I want this nice looking tv/crt animation. I tried this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109363 but no success...
Any ideas how I can get this working?
Thanks!
sorry for my poor english

how exactly did you manage to flash the update??? Boot partitions have changed so how did you manage to do it?
I read certain posts, that partitions not changed....
as I said:
- I modified the rom.zip with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246 (only small changes, cut hboot off and disabled startup sounds)
- then i flashed the signed zip with clockwork recovery
Everything works fine...
Paul told me the same: Customize the framework-res.apk. I tried it again with a different method, but no success.
Now I read something, that I have to modify services.jar/odex. I deodexed the file, but I have no idea what I have to change there.
Any suggestions?
I found that other devs included this animation in there stock gingerbread roms. i tried to use the framework-res.apk from there rom but nothing happend? I'm doing something wrong?
my steps are:
booting to recovery
mount /system rw
push new framework-res.apk to /system
connect via adb shell
chmod 644 framework-res.apk
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
mv /system/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
untmount, reboot
please any help...
did you find a way
Hi Zittermann,
Did you find a way for getting the CRT screen close on the HTC desire?
I have the GB pre-rooted and would like the CRT off.

hi evil_nipple,
I didn't found a way yet....
did you try to modify framework-res.apk? I still think this should be the right way, but I think I missed something on this process.
Not Yet but look at this
No I followed the instruction as you.
Been doing a bit more digging and found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15976400
This has some extra steps changing the "build.prop" file, I just checked and this is not in the method you found. Not had chance to try it yet.
Hey all,
as i wanted to use a different bootanimation i discovered that stock kernel doesn't like that .
So i thought that i could at least go back to the Original one without problems but that doesn't work either.
Do i have to flash a different kernel now to get rid of the lame stock animation or is there another way?
Put a bootanimation.zip in /data/local and it will play when you boot.

I put it in /data/local and in /system/media but it still just shows the stock one. fixing permissions didn't help either.
stock kernel shouldnt mess with bootanimations at all. maybe ramdisk/init.rc would, not sure if bootanimation service is there (i think so). i'm using JRO03L/3.0.31-custom and custom bootanim work fine from /data/local.
have you tried other bootanimations, or you only tried with one particular bootanim zip? maybe its not packaged right?

I have read on this Forum that the stock kernel doesn't allow chanigng of the bootanimation.
I didn't know that and replaced the bootanimation in /system/media with one i downloaded and changed the name too bootanimation.zip.
It didn't work so i wanted to get back to the Original which i made a backup of. But now the one that was there in the first place doesn't work either.
Also /data/local never had a bootanimation.zip before i put it there myself.
The animation i have now is the stock android one (android in like.. a metalc blue thats blinking?!) and the bootanimation.zip is the on ethat came with the JB OTA.
Apparently the Kernel thing is bull and i am an idiot. The permissions wheren't changeed correctly and now everything works fine.

This might be a late reply but I had exactly the same problem like you .
I didn't know what was the reason . I fixed it by making a flashable boot animations in cwm.
It's easy to do .
1- Download an empty flashable boot animation zip file or make your own.
2- navigate to( data/local ) inside that zip file and paste your boot animation.zip there.
Note : Use astro file manager to move and paste your boot animation.zip there without extracting anything.
Make sure your boot animation file is called ( bootanimation.zip)
3- Flash in cwm and enjoy.

Did you rename it? It must be named bootanimation.zip and you must remove any other in there.
Data/local will override system media so whichever is in data/local will play.

I already fixed it.
The permissions weren't changed correctly so the bootanim wasn't used.
Can you mark a thread as "Answered"?
Tried searching all over to no avail .. idk why it's so hard to find.
I have the stock boot files still in /system/media but the BIN file in /system/bin was reconfigured to look for a bootanimation.zip instead of the stock .qmg files already there. Anyway if anyone has a flashable zip of the stock T-MO S4 bootanimation that'd be great, or just the bin file for it that would work too..
Maybe this thread might help.
