Do that, then long press on the bootanimation.zip and change the permissions to give everyone read access and write only to user

Well now after a hour of trying. I finally read all the comments on that page and seen that I had to rename the file to bootanimation. Now I have my android peeing on the apple...

I guess my ROM won't allow me to change my bootanimation screen. When I go to replace the current one in ES Explorer, it says the file cannot be replaced. I'm running SS Ultra. Anyone else have this problem, and know a solution without switching ROM's?

1. Make sure you have full root access under the settings
2. Don't delete the original boot animation, just toss something like .bak on the end just in case something goes screwy its still there.
Wouldn't let me delete mine either, but it did allow me to rename with ES. Don't ask me how or why, but if something CAN go wrong to me it WILL.

Presenting:
A Unofficial Cyanogen(mod) 9 Boot Animation!​
This boot animation is meant to be an homage to my favorite ROM. When I saw what was to be the new boot animation for cyanogen(mod) 9 I was somewhat disappointed (and I know that I was not the only one). So I decided to take an afternoon to create my own boot animation.
THIS IS INTENDED FOR PHONES WITH A SCREEN RESOLUTION OF 480x800!
For anyone who does not know, this is how you install a boot animation. This is using the Root Explorer method. I believe a free alternative is called Root Browser:
Browse to /system/media and backup bootanimation.zip to a safe location
Rename this boot animation to bootanimation.zip
Place the new bootanimation.zip on your SD card
Navigate to where you saved the new bootanimation.zip and copy it
Browse to /system/media and paste the new bootanimation.zip replacing the old one
Here are some images until I can get a video in here:
Render time: 0:50:41
Mirrors:
MediaFire
If you like my work please hit the THANKS button.
Thanks to:
-Cyanogen(mod) team for their great rom
-despotovski01 for his Boot Animation Creator
If any one could make a YouTube video of this animation in action, I would love to give you credit.
This is really cool thanks for sharing

Haha, I know right? Sometimes I wipe dalvik cache just to get to see the whole animation, lol
I'm just seeing this boot ani now, could someone reupload because I'd love it, however the mirror is down.

Window transition animation

OK I have a zip of a windows transiting animation zip... When I open it it says folders are res/anim and then there are a bunch of files in it... I'd like to change the files out so I can use the other transition...I tried zip themer and that did not work...what I am asking is does anyone know where this set of files/folder is located within system? If not any way I could get this to flash properly?

It is in the framework-res.apk (/system/framework/framework-res.apk).
You can either modify the framework-res.apk manually and use adb to push it back, or make an update.zip. You alternatively could make a zipthemer file and use it to flash it.

Ok the first idea you have honestly is way out of my league lol...alternatively I don't know how to turn it into a zip theme file...do you know more about that? I don't know much about code at all so if you do please dumb it down

You could use rom toolbox lite (assuming you're rooted). I use it for animations and fonts when I'm not on sourcery rom.

[Q] Please help to remove menu on Galaxy Note 2 SHV-E250S

I bought a Galaxy Note 2 (i605 Verizon) but by mistake I got a Korea version SHV-E250S instead. I do like it though but it has a black menu always appears on the home screens as shows in the picture and I could not find a way to remove that menu even I tried all of the Setting and I do believe there must be a way to do so. Does anyone have an idea?

How can I know it is a rooted phone? I did download the Root Browser but after accessed the efs folder I only see return symbol key to parent folder and nothing else it it. If it is not a rooted phone then what I should do?

I just done root the phone but still can't locate the factorymode file? Is there someone can help?
I did see a post by Dr ketan a while ago explaing how to turn off the factory mode screen. If I remember it wasn't too difficult. I'll try and find it

I found the reason. The superSU didn't work after my first root. I just got it rooted the second time and I have located the Factorymode file and just remove the menu of. Thank you your guys.

[Q] Can you turn off the boot sound?

Anyone know if it's possible to get rid of the T-Mobile sound on boot? I'm rooted with a custom recovery but unable to get s-off if that helps anything.

Just name both files .bak at the end or just delete the 2 all together with your favorite root explorer.

Should we delete the whole animation, or just the two jingle files at the top of the list?

I'm thinking Just the jingle files. Deleting the whole animation would probably leave you with the classic, metallic "android" boot animation, as the T-Mobile part was probably just packed in to the original animation...
For safety reasons, I would do the "bak" thing, that way you still have easy access to those files if something goes wrong.

Thanks for this. For some reason when I tried renaming the files with root explorer it looked like it worked but after reopening the app the files had reverted back to their original filenames. No idea what's going on with that. I ended up going into TWRP and renaming there which worked.

Since you are s-on, you can't make directly make system changes while booted to OS. All changes will be reverted because you actually are not writing to system, it only appears that way. HTCs kernel provides system rw protection which prevents modification to system partition. You have three options, flash a custom kernel, use flar2s system rw mod, or reboot to twrp recovery and make changes using its built in file manager (changes made while in recovery will stick).

ES Explorer not working properly with Rooted Stock 4.4.4

I have been trying for a while now to get the APK for S-Note to install on stock 4.4.4 and fails every time I try. So online I found another way I could do this is to use root explorer thats in ES Explorer. The problem is the copying to anything on root fails even though the root option is enabled in ES Explorer and my phone is rooted. So my thought is that maybe the file explorer is messed up or something. I know the APK for S-note works because it worked prior to me going to stock from another customer rom. Any suggestions?
Did you mount system as rw?

I don't remember seeing that as an option. Where in the app do I do this?
Tap on root explorer, not the button, then you will see this screen:

}
Go to mount r/w, then select rw for system
That worked, however I am getting a describe error. It says there is a problem parsing the package. I am not understanding why this APK does not work. The icon looks normal when its not in the system app folder. When its copied there I see the the android gremlin thing sitting in a box. This is extremely aggravating because I know this worked on 4.4.2 just fine.

You mean the mount rw thing? That part I was able to do. Even when I set it back and reboot the app does not show up in my app drawer.
