Can this be used as a flasheable zip? If not is it possible to make one and will this work for CM7?

Would it work on a sense rom?

It doesn't appear to be flashable based on his instructions.

Sense ROM would need this to be installed in a diff. location. but it should work.
Also not sure how its going to look because the resolution is not set to the correct resolution - should be 480x800.

Moved to themes and apps

Looks fine actually I did that on purpose cuz it looked to small to me as said with the sense it should work but my instructions are for CM7 as for flashable honestly I wouldn't try it but if ur feeling froggy or wanna try go for it I'm not responsible thoug

The zip isn't flashable, and even if you tried it would error out and not flash anyway.

[Q] Custom bootanimation not working

I have pushed a custom bootanimation.zip (Android Scribbler one) to both /data/local and /system/media, but the animation of the boot that I'm getting is still HTC's default.
Can somebody tell me what I did wrong? Or is it just not possible to change the bootanimation for the stock Wildfire ROM?
I have attached the custom bootanimation that I'm trying to use if that helps to identify the problem.
Thanks in advance.
unless you root your wildfire, im pretty sure your very limited to what you can do, unless it is in the form of an app, and even then i dont think bootscreens are possible on the stock rom!!!
I got it working. Apparently the real bootanimation.zip that you need to replace is stored in system/customize/resource
how did you replace the original bootanimation.zip ? i'm trying to replace it using AndExplorer and it won't let me ... my device is rooted with unrevoked ...

use adb and push the bootanimation.zip (which must be in the tools folder which is inside your android-sdk folder) to /system/customize/resource, /data/local, /system/media, i think you only need to push it to the first one, but i did all 3 just in case

I got it to work. Either use bootanimation.zip and push it via adb or go into recovery and use my update.zip.
Update.zip also removes the bootsound

PS: works on stock rom, tested it on my wildfire

Nope, the update.zip does not work for me. I tried replacing it with the root explorer but all it does is reset the phone after I'm done copying it. I use WilpuzzleROM 0.7 and the boot animation is in 2 locations; /system/customize/resource and /data/local. Whether i push the zip file via adb to /system/customize/resource or use the update.zip it does not matter, the boot animation is still the same. It looks like the one from /data/local overwrites the one in /system/customize/resource. It worked only after i issued the command adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local.

Ok, for custom roms like yours, you have to find the correct location. otherwise my update.zip works for "standard" location.

Hello,
It can't change the original cyanogen bootanimation
I have HTC wildfire with Cyanogen7 (2.3.7)
I reboot it with recovery and install update.zip (from mcpat), and initially copied to sdcard.
no changes
sincerely,
For cm7 put animation zip in data/local change permissions of zip to read write reboot and enjoy hope this helps.

Clockworkmod for Cellular South Galaxy S Showcase

The Showcase is the Cellular South version of Fascinate and is very similar in structure to the Mesmerize. While it has been determined that the Mesmerize files work for the Showcase kernel and Clockworkmod, I was able to get jt1134 to compile the same files from a dump of my showcase. Attached is the kernel for clockworkmod as well as instructions for getting it installed. redbend_ua and zimage are located in the kernel_update folder of zip file.
You will also need to be rooted and have the sdk installed to use adb.
You will need to install redbend_ua first extract the zip file then;
Code:
adb push path/to/redbend_ua /sdcard/redbend_ua
then you need to make it executable
Code:
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /sdcard/redbend_ua
Now you need to move it to the /system/xbin
Code:
adb shell
su
mv /sdcard/redbend_ua /system/xbin/redbend_ua
Take the zImage file and push it to the sd card.
Code:
adb push path/to/zImage /sdcard/zImage
Finally we need to flash the zImage
Code:
redbend_ua restore /sdcard/zImage /dev/block/bml8
Now you can download clockworkmod from market and install the fascinate version of recovery. When you get done you can then flash the attached zip and it will replace your stock phone kernel with the modded one giving access to bln and some other stuff.
Big thanks to jt1134 for taking the time to answer my questions and compile the kernel zip for my phone. Also props to thescorpion420 who I borrowed the installations steps from, since he already had it so well layed out in the mesmerize post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850898
Thanks for the writeup! And thanks for the help, got this going on my Showcase a couple of days ago... very nice to have the ability to make backups!
Hey, sorry, I'm having some odd trouble with this and I was wondering if someone could help. When I attempt to push the file, I'm getting a "permission denied" error. Any idea how to fix this?
I had similar troubles when I did it... I used Root Explorer to move the files into the proper locations, and Terminal Emulator to run the commands.
Hey. Is the zImage the zip file attached to the first post? Sorry, I'm learning. Managed to get to the last couple of steps!

the zImage file is in the kernel_update folder of the zip file... so open the zip file and extract it from there.

Well Root Explorer solved my issue. For some reason xbin had RO rights.. I flashed the Recovery now I'm installing ROM Manager to do a back up..
Finally finished my first back up..
Worked with no issues. Thank you for getting us one step further in Showcase development

Essentially, you would download Terminal Emulator from the Android Market and run the commands in the terminal. Note that the files should be copied to your /sdcard/ first!
A little more info, since you're running it from the phone (and not adb shell) your first command will be: su. PM me if you need more help!

I would STRONGLY recommend using the ADB Commands if you cannot buy things via the Android Market. They do the EXACT same thing. Just Root Explorer type Applications make it visible.
And it's super easy to do from the CMD terminal
1) Log in as root
Code:
adb shell
2) make the system r/w ( i know it's now the "exact" coding but it works )
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblk3 /system
3) delete the bootanimation.zip on the phone currently
Code:
rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
4) log out of root
Code:
exit
5) change folders to the one where you stored the bootanimation you downloaded
Code:
cd c:\_________
6) push the bootanimation.zip to the /system/media folder
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media
7) log back in as root and check the bootanimation
Code:
adb shell
bootanimation
If it looks like the one you want you can hold "crtl" and tap "c" to get out of it.
(if you do this in the terminal emulator, i do not know how to quit the bootanimation w/o pulling the battery)

CRT Animation [WORKING]

For those of you who don't know exactly what the CRT animation is, it is the animation that Gingerbread uses when you press the power button and the screen gives a neat power off effect.
Well I wanted this. A lot. So I went out and did it. Just enabled it, and it looks gorgeous on my phone.
Please note, that you must be rooted in order to use this, and on Gingerbread.
It is a straightforward process.
PLEASE NOTE THIS REQUIRES ADB AND JAVA TO BE INSTALLED
A good idea to nandroid before this, as if something goes wrong it can screw up a lot of things.
Installation 1:
Download DX2-CRT-Animation.zip
Copy to sdcard
Flash in CWR
BIG THANKS TO p3droid FOR PACKAGING AS A ZIP
Installation 2 (the complicated, make you feel cooler, hardcore, original way):
This is modifying your framework-res so some themes may not work any longer.
Instructions:
[]Have phone plugged into computer, and in Charge Mode.
[]Download DX2-CRT-Animation.apk
[]Open Command Prompt (or Terminal) window in DX2-CRT-Animation.apk's location. (This can be accomplished by shift clicking on the folder where this resides, and clicking open command prompt here).
[]Push files onto the phone
Code:
adb push DX2-CRT-Animation.apk /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
[]Get shell access
Code:
adb shell
su
---When you enter this, make sure your phone is awake, as a Super User access allow/deny will pop up. Allow it.
In command prompt, you should now have a #.
[]Remove and copy files to proper location, reboot
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
stop
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
cp /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
rm /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
reboot
Whats next:
-Reverse CRT animation (hopefully!!!)
Any input is appreciated.
I am new to this. Give me your input, and help me get better.
Works great! Thanks!
I think everything is working as it should with crt animation working.
Directions worked well, I just had to change how I got into adb.
Great job.
This is awesome, however I'm a little confused. I'm no beginner by any means, but this looks to be outside the realm of what I've done.
When I go into the terminal, am I doing this from my computer? Or my phone (via Terminal Emulator)?
Here is what I'm thinking, and please tell me if I'm wrong:
Download apk
Enter terminal emulator
Type in all of your commands
Voila?
Sorry for all the newbness on this, but I'm dying for some CRT.
Thanks man!
Nevermind, I'm a fail.
I'm downloading the Android and Java SDK now.
I downloaded the necessary files. I can't get the first part to work.
"Open Command Prompt (or Terminal) window in DX2-CRT Animation.apk's location.
Can you explain this step more? I tried right-clicking...
People set up there adb differently. Important thing is to copy file to the directory of where your adb tools are. In my case its
/sdk/platform-tools
Hope this helps

Couldn't get it to work. Even had the IT guy from my work try to get it going. We couldn't get the terminal to find swt.jar
Is it possible for me to do this through root explorer, all through my phone? Change permissions and push it into the correct folder?
That would be awesome.
I am out of town but when I get back I will try to package a zip to flash.
Are you on linux?
If I can elaborate for you here:
When you download the apk, copy it to your documents folder. The use the cd command to change the directory to your documents folder. This is assuming you have your path files set up correctly. Hope this helps!

Well, I tried both download links in the original post and each time it would successfully boot up but no CRT animation. I finally got it figured out as I have the X2 spare parts installed and had to turn off fancy input animations and now it works. Thanks for posting this.
EDIT: I take that back. I had to put the speed of transition animations to normal and can have fancy input animations enabled. For some reason this won't work when "fast" is checked.

Root access without dock or computer

Ok...first off i know this is not supposed to be in general discussion but as my new status will not let me reply to the relevant thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216131). I just wanted to share how I achieved root access (without a computer) by using bits of different advise from other users. I take no credit for any of this, I don't know any commands but I obviously have an idea of what they are trying to accomplish. Here goes:
First Step:
Download Superuser from market
Download Terminal Emulator from market
Download Dolphin HD browser
Navigate to the above linked thread in the Dolphin broswer and Download photon-torpedo.tar
Once all these are installed reboot your device.
Second Step:
From the terminal emulator enter commands pressing enter after each.
cd /tmp/
cp /sdcard/download/photon-torpedo.tar . (note the "space" and "period" at the end)
chmod 777 photon-torpedo.tar
/bin/tar xf photon-torpedo.tar
./photon-torpedo.sh (you will receive errors at this point, IGNORE)
./install-su.sh
Reboot your device
Third Step:
Run terminal emulator
Enter the command su
At this point it will ask for superuser rights and you are rooted.
*The reason for this thread is that I had to take bits from different responses and piece them together to get this to work. Hope this helps someone as I wanted give back to the community. Again...all credit goes to the original contributors.*
*Fixed typo*
*Theory - If you have a SD card installed when you download the file change the second command line to " cp /sdcard-ext/download/photon-torpedo.tar ." (note the "space" and "period" at the end)*
*Another hint - Determine the location of your /tmp/ folder prior to attempting root (download a file explorer from market) and modify as needed. Some have needed to use /data/tmp/ *
Nice!!! On your second command, change cp to cd

Actually that is supposed to be cp. I believe it copies the photon-torpedo.tar to the /tmp/ folder where it needs to be located in order to run. (I could be wrong on my logic but that is what worked for me)

There is always a chance of something happening anytime you step outside official updates but i would venture to say that this about 99.9% safe.

To be quite honest i haven't felt the need to flash a rom on the mopho so you'll have to research that one yourself. To flash though you normally need to install a bootloader and im just not familiar with the process on this phone. I only rooted to access wifi hotspot and a few other apps.

*Another hint - Determine the location of your /tmp/folder prior to attempting root (download a file explorer from market) and modify as needed. Some have needed to use /data/tmp/ *
