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)

I am using call of Droid I got it from absolute system

How do I "Reboot to recovery" and I think I already run the "update.zip" when I rooted the phone. Do I have to download ClockworkMod Reovery or something? Like said I'm new to this so I'm sorry if I'm a nuisance.
Edit: Is it the same thing as this?

Now we can start. Plug your device to your computer and enable the debugging mode of your phone (Go to MENU->SETTINGS->APPLICATIONS->DEVELOPMENT->Enable the “USB debugging”).
Then you need the adb tool that is given with the SDK. (You can find it it the “Tools” directory of the SDK).
Open a command prompt, go to the directory of “adb.exe” and type:
adb.exe devices
You should see your device. If there is no device connected, maybe your phone is not in the “debugging mode” see above. If your device appears, you can now type:
adb.exe -d reboot recovery
Then your phone will reboot in recovery mode and you will see this logo:

You can go to the market and download rom manager and use it to flash a custom recovery...
Flash cwmod recovery from the app
Reboot into cwmod recovery from the app
First thing to do its go to the nandroid option and do a backup (always recommended before changing anything)
Then dl the link from above.. This is a new .zip make sure its on the internal sdcard (the 16gb one).. When you reboot into recovery (from the app like last time) go to flash any zip from sdcard.. Choose the new .zip file you just downloaded.. Your /system should now be rw upon reboot

Ok so I added that except to the userinit script, lag fix still works, adb doesnt seem to...
Just ran .zip file through clockwork to overwrite other file then just fix later after adb use was done, still no positive results...
Keeps saying
Cannot stat 'touchwizcalendar.apk' : no such file our directory
And if I open a shell and type the same command i get push: not found
Maybe I am just approaching this all wrong and not getting adb set up right first or something...
Can some one just step me through this crap, I can almost always figure this kind of thing out and this is pissing me off that I can't do a simple command to reinstall a damn calendar apk I want and that's the whole frickin point of having root...
Starting fresh again...
Running a fresh flash of vibrant6, have an up to date busy box, no lag fix activated at this time (but files are there from vibe6 and had it installed in the past before nand restoring.stock w/root and flashing fresh vibe 6), no adb push script installed yet but.zip is in root of sd if needed, running version 1.0.26 of adb on my computer and have apk files pulled from deodexed rom that are desired to be pushed sitting in root of sdcard (files named; "TouchWizCalendar.apk", "TouchWizCalendarProvider.apk", "TouchWizCalculator.apk", "ClockPackage.apk".)

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/ *

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)

Thanks a lot! This worked great! I just picked up my photon last night and didn't have time to root via the computer before work today.
I did find one typo.
cp /sdcard/download/photon-topedo.tar .
should be
cp /sdcard/download/photon-torpedo.tar .

Very nice! Never thought of an interanl root option. Thank you for your hard work and creativity
You are awesome, thank you. Worked like a charm. Way easier than all the other methods out right now.

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/ *
