On my rooted Defy - how do I install a zip-file??
Like this one;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12426274&postcount=24
install the 2ndinit apk 1.4.2 newer ones wont work with some files
then reboot 2 times.
third reboot: press volume down, when the led is blue.
now choose recovery by pressin vol up or down and power to accept.
then choose costum recovery, and apply zip from sd. choose your file and confirm.
done
hope this answers your question
Thanks, seems simple enough
uh, where do I find 2ndinit.apk
You can find it here.
I know how to install .zip but I have a question. CWM3.1 does not flash some .zip like a baseband or a theme. It says "aborted". I think that the problem is that the file is not signed or something. In CWM2.5.1.8 works but the problem is that CM7 or MIUI changes it to CWM3. So, what should I do?
Thanks!
Works fine, even the mentioned zip-file!
The "issue" is that the latest CWM3.x no longer support "amend scripting" (stored in update-script) and won't apply zip's created with such scripts. Therefore all .zip which where written using the old method should be converted to edify scripting (which use different statements - more details here-).
is there an way to downgrade the 2ndinit? an how-to would be very nice
You can replace the recovery file from /system/bootmenu/recovery/sbin with the one from 2nd init 1.4.2 . The file persimmon should be rwxr-xr-x (755).

and how do i do that? with rootexplorer? what for do i need the file permission? to change it or to set it after changing the files?
Yup. You can replace it using an app like root explorer. And the file permission should be set up after you copy the file (if you have the wrong file permission it won't work).
EDIT: I haven't tried yet to downgrade it this way but that's what I've read on the forum, therefore I cannot guarantee you it will work.
sry for me being a noob. i found the file named recovery in the folder you mentioned. but have got only the file 2ndinit.apk..... where do i get the recovery file from 2ndinit.apk ?
thank you for your time!
You can unpack it using a tool like Apk Manager 4.9 or simply by using 7zip to extract the files from the apk which is in fact some sort of archive. However as I've mentioned in the previous post I didn't tried to downgrade using this method. All I can say is that I've read here on xda about this method, therefore I cannot guarantee you this will work. I think is better to wait someone with more experience to answer.
As an unexperienced user i think i'll wait for a better solution.
As i read, this problem appears quite often, how come that nobody tried to make a solution for this problem?

I just went back to stock ICS tonight as well and have me found in the same situation, to fix it all you need is to dowload the lights.n1.so - BLN.zip from here ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2067954
unzip it cause its not a flashable zip for some reason, transfer the lights.n1.so file you got from the zip to your sdcard, use any root enabled file explorer (i use rootbrowser lite myself) and copy the file to this directory --> system/lib/hw and paste it there, it should ask you to overwrite (back up the original file just in case) select yes and reboot. After that check the BLN app and you sould be able to activate it now :good: activate it and deactivated a couple time just in case lol it worked for me. Hope it helps.
Thanks
Thank you worked like a charm.

@singh_jsm hi, please tell me what .xml file have you edited for your mod. And what @ids were touched in it.
Just haven't time to compare your files. I have a rough guess that the file is signal_cluster_view.xml but I don't have DS phone to check if it's true or not. I need this information for my xposed module.
Thank you in advance.
after flash yr zip,my phone break,even flash again stock .zip. I think it fault.
Waiting for 1% battery mod. Will try after that. Saved till then.
I was having problem with flashing cm12.1 zip.

1)I decompressed system.new.dat(which was in the zip) to ext 4...
2) then again decompressed ext4 to output folder(which was the old way to make zips).for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/and.../how-to-conver-lollipop-dat-files-to-t2978952.
3)then edited updater script using refrence of updater script of mokee zip files(i was able to flash mokee51.1 roms).
voila it flashed successfully.
Now the que is why this happens?Am i the only one who faces this problem.
..God knows how frusted i was due to this.......

RESURRECTION REMIX LATEST BOOTANIMATION
I came across the new boot animation made by AltanKRK {Creator of Resurrection Remix ROM} which he posted on Google+
It looked amazing and I wanted it desperately, I down scaled it and now I'm sharing it with all of you...
I down sclaed the boot animation to 480x480 and it works flawlessly on Galaxy grand duos..
**Didn't made it to 480x800 because then it looked out of proportion**
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download bootanimation.zip from the attachments below..
2. Move it to /system/media {Optionally backup the old bootanimation.zip by renaming it to bootanimation.zip.old}
3. Set permissions as RW-R-R
4. Reboot
5. BOOM you have the latest awesome boot animation... :highfive:
***This zip is not flashable, you manually have to push it to your device***
TESTED ON:-
Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos GT-I9082 with Resurrection Remix v5.4.5
Note:- This will work with any phone with custom rom & matching screen resolution [480x800]
You can use file explorer like ES File Explorer to change the file permissions...
Edit: Flashable zip now available.. Check post #3

Edit2:- Modified version 2 now available..

Change the Permissions to Read and Write ( Simply tick every thing ) copy it and then change the permission to rw-r-r
or flash the Zip file in Post 3

How to access read and write properties after going into properties. I use ES file explorer. It shows error while copying!! Also, I tried flashing your zip file and the new boot animation is the android logo. I want the Ressurrection Remix logo. I think you've uploaded the wrong zip file.

Use CM File Manager , Go to properties of the bootanimation and then you will find two taps click on the second tap and then change the file permission
Anyone please confirm the problem with the Zip file ... Cause its working fine on my phone (CM12)

Hey the flashable zip works fine for me..
About the copy error you told, verify root is enabled in Settings-> Developer Settings
Open ES file explorer, open the left menu scroll down to tools and make sure root explorer is enable, then try to copy...
Then select the file open properties and change the permissions to RW-R-R..
Then reboot..
Refer to the screenshot below..
Note:- In the screenshot you've posted you're trying to change the file permissions while the file is in your downloads folder but the permissions option is available for files in root specific directories.. So first copy and then change permissions..

Bootanimation v2 now availaible!!
Here I present the 2nd version of the previous bootanimation..
It is slightly modified in the respect that earlier the whole animation looped until phone booted now a small part of it only loops..
The flashable zip is available too...:highfive:
Supported TWRP & CWM
Though I'll still suggest to manually push the file to /system/media and setting permissions to RW-R-R
