for ROOT
please backup with Xrecovery before trying this. Sometimes when I tried to change transitions for other downloaded on the internet I had bootloop.
I’ve managed to change transitions in X8 to Stock Android (sliding left and right).
I’ve prepared framework-res.apk file that you have to switch with the original one.
You can try to prepare your custom transitions by changing the files in .apk in res/anim folder. You have to change files that begin with semc_activity. You can find animation .xml file on the Internet. To swapping files you can use WinRAR.
In framework APK there are files called activity_open_*.xml and semc_activity_open*. I’ve just deleted the semc* files, copy and renamed the other files so that they begin with semc_*.
Installation using propc method:
Extract the zip file into root of your sd card. (make sure the files are in root).
in adb shell, use this command:
_________
su
cd /sdcard
sh reframe.sh
_________
I think you can also swap the framework-res.apk file using root explorer, but I didn’t tried it.
I advice to use these custom transitions together with LauncherPro because it has custom fancy applaunch animation. With ADW launcher there’s probably no transition when launching app (I don’t know why). You can use SpareParts application to change the speed of transitions.
Remember – backup first with xrecovery.

Make Sure You Have A Nandroid Backup
Here are a few Apk's I modified the icons on. I will be changing and modifying more when I have a chance. Enjoy. Just use ADB to push them to the /system/app directory on your phone or use Root Explorer on your phone to move them to the same directory.
So you want to make a custom framework, but don't want to bork your phone? I have found an easy way to fix these things....
Go to one of the gingerbread notification threads for 318 or 319 and download the signed zip.
then with root explorer, copy framework-res.apk and services.odex from /system/framework/ to your sd card using root explorer or other means.
copy those files to a pc... Make a copy of the gingerbread notification bar for 318 zip and label it.. example... 341frameservstock.zip
open the zip file with 7zip or winrar... key word open! not extract
drag your stock files into the /system/framework folder inside the zip.
hit close...
copy the zip file to the root of your sd card.... As long as you have streakmod or clockwork loaded as recovery, you can easily flash back in seconds to those files and boot back into android... and try, try again...
simple easy... no need to reflash or waste the time.
Can anyone port this bootanimation for our tattoo, or explain me how to do that? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005201
its much better than the one in nfinity rom....would be great if anyone could help!
I think that it's included in pot kitchen. You can try it.
http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
If it isn't, maybe you'll find another one(have a lot)
They succeeded
Download the file bootanimation.zip
Extract on the desktop the two folders and the file.
Open desc.txt and change the two numbers, write 240 400
Now you have to use winzip, not winrar, to create another file called bootanimation.zip put in the two folders and files changed by choosing "let me choose the specific .." and "zip: no compression".
Any other method has failed
You can also use the original .zip file but the images are too large for the tattoo display
You can follow the instructions of the link
"If you use a custom ROM copy it in the folder data / local
If you use CyanogenMod7 ROM copy it in the folder system / media "
You can use "root explorer" or "adb"
Instructions for adb are:
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip (/data/local /...)
adb reboot
First make a backup of the rom.
sorry, I used google translate
I made edited bootanimation.zip as you say so.. But when I reboot phone I only see black screen.
sure you use winzip as described?
this issue not to use Winzip correctly.
I have redone the same procedure with the original bootanimation and works fine
if you fail to do here is the link
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WNWIQW7Z
(rename to bootanimation)
If you use some app to change bootanimaton, then you can try puish the file in / data / local
This is because Android first look in / data / local and then in / system / media
I didn't use 'no compression'.. Now it works :]
Your edited bootanimation works great.. Thanks
I edited this bootanimation for our tattoo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=648555
You can download it from here http://www.multiupload.com/S9T7H8PM03
Well finally i find a solution for my black custom bootscreen.
I made one personal, and was in despair because i could'nt make it appear!
I renamed each files ,changed the file type, tried to make files be a multiple of pic/sec...
Thanks to liupos i found that the winrar compression was the prob

Guys if you are new users and change themes files and remain safe then do like i describe other wise your Xperia arc can be on a boot-loop and restart it self
X theme pack the Original thread is here, you can download it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137329
Method how to apply..............
1) first copy all those files and keep a backup of them in SD card, which you are going to replace from your System folder in this TUTORIAL
so that in future you can resore the orignal one if you want
2) Requirments:
2.1) your phone should be rooted
2.2) busybox installed
2.3) root explorer installed
here are three kind of themes Blue, Green, Red
you can download them from original thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137329
All the theme folder have three files inside them
a) framework-res.apk (you will find this file in system\framework)
b) SemcGenericUxpRes.apk (you will find this file in system\framework)
c) SystemUI.apk (you will find this file in system\app)
first of all copy all files into sd card
*** steps ***
1) first of all open root explorer open system and copy all your orignal three file you are going to replace and paste then in a folder in sd card, for example i make a new folder with the name (Orignal backup files )in my SD card and i paste my all orignal apps there you can do it by
go to system folder now you will see a boton on the top ( Remount as R/W ) tab on it now it will be like this ( Remount as R/O ) done, now you can copy your system apps
2) now go into SD card you will see a boton on the top ( Remount as R/W ) tab on it now it will be like this ( Remount as R/O ) done.
************Remember you shoud be tab this botton in both placec System folder and SD card***************
3) now copy framework-res.apk from theme folder you want to apply and paste it in system first now long tab on it, it will pop up a window tab on permissions you will see a box like this
............Read.....Write....Execute
User.......Yes.......Yes........-
Group......Yes........-..........-
Others.....Yes........-..........-
Select only those which i select in this Picture
now move it to system\framework
4) Do not exit your root explorer and do same with the file SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
copy SemcGenericUxpRes.apk from theme folder and paste it in system first now loang tab on it, it will pop up a window tab or permissions and set them like you did with first file
and move it to system\framework
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
after phone is on go to root explorer and copy the last file name SystemUI.apk
again Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper picture
and paste it to system\app
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
Done
HOW TO GET BACK ON ORIGINAL THEME :
it is the same methord you did like uper but a little tricky
copy your origaln files now instead of custom theme files but in this order
now this time copy the third file first name SystemUI.apk
Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper and paste it to system\app
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
after on copy and paste the secound and first file named
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
framework-res.apk
Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper and paste it to system\framework
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
Do same like this other wise you will break your phone software and it will go on a bootloop, i did it with my phone
then i again flash my phone with flash tool and update it through OTA... very loag method to do it...
takes a lot of time

You need to remove root explorer, paid apps can't be posted.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA App
As mentioned, please do not distribute paid apps. This is not acceptable on xda and will not be tolerated.

Hi all
I'm very interested to apply one of the x-themes WITHOUT changing my own Lockscreen (official one)! How can I do that?
Thanks lot
In fact, all I desire, is battery pourcentage + network signal + wifi signal on red color
Here are the stock Samsung boot and shutdown animations for Galaxy S III.
I have a branded phone so was after these and I saw another post from someone requesting them, I figure there are probably other people wanting their phone to appear less branded without having to reflash their phone.
I couldn't find these files anywhere else on xda, apologies if this is a double post.
This requires root access and a file manager/explorer capable of accessing the system folder of your phone.
If you don't already have a file manager/explorer capable of accessing the system folder, you can download ES File Explorer from the Play Store free. In ES File Explorer you will need to enable the options:
Up to Root
Root Explorer
Mount File System
I don't know how to write scripts so I can't make a CWR zip to install these, if anyone would like to take the time then by all means take these files, package it up and post it.
I tried taking some pictures of the animations with my SGS1 but the photos were out of focus so no point posting them.
Instructions:
Extract files from zip.
Copy bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg to /system/media/
Copy shutdown.qmg to /system/media/video/shutdown/
Reboot and enjoy the pretty Samsung animations.
Worked like a charm, thanks!
A nice touch I just noticed is that the LED pulses from light to dark blue while shutting down/starting up. Neato!
