Aight so if u noticed once u installed the leak for froyo 2.2 if u had a custom bootanimation on ur phone it revert or essentially upgraded it and when u try to put ur custom one back in /data/local along wit an Android_audio.mp3 file the animation still won't change..
Here's the fix..
ok assuming u have sdk already installed and u already experienced changing animation before Imma go the short route...
When upgrading to froyo the spot of ur bootanimation has switched.. so what u want to do is
First , rename the bootanimation.zip file to VZW_bootanimation.zip then rename ur Android_audio.mp3 to VZW_audio.mp3 please rename exactly wit caps on VZW and underscore
Secondly, goto ur sdk directory and copy n paste ur newly named files into the tools folder...
Third , start phone up in recovery mode once there goto partition menu then select the first option which should be mount. Go back to computer screen and open cmd prompt change directory to ur sdk folder under tools..once there do these commands
Adb push VZW_bootanimation /system/customize/resource/
Adb push VZW_Droid.mp3 /system/customize/resource/
The transfer should show on screen after every command
The on ur phone hit the optical button to unmount
Hit ur power button to go back a screen
Then reboot system and ur custom bootanimation and sound should load.. lemme know if u have any issues..

I haven't tried this but assuming it works, has anyone isolated the Incredible's new boot animation so that in case I ever want to go back to it I can? I don't mind it but wish it was just the eye without all of the words flying by on the screen. I want to change it to the Droid X boot but may want to go back to this one someday. Thanks.

Can someone help me with something.
I have an audio clip that is about 30 seconds long and after 10 seconds (with leaked froyo) the sound goes really low.
Anyway to change this?
I couldn't get this to work. It says/sbin/sh: adb: not found
I don't know why it won't work, but it's only since 2.2. It worked fine using 2.1 but then I only had to use these commands...
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local
adb reboot
OMFG! thank you so much! this is a life saver! is there any way i can donate?!

@ishootpixels be sure to do instructions to don't skip.. it sounds like ur not navigating to ur sk/tools folder in order to use the abd commands.. commands are pretty much the same Adb push VZW_bootanimation.zip then the instructed folder... b sure to do this while phone is in recovery mode.. if u have further issues lemme know I can see what I can do
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
also ishootpixels if you actually go into shell and try to run these commands they wont work... just navigat to sdk/tools folder once there run commands... after changing name of files though.. also it would help to know when exactly ur getting this error is it right off the bat with the first one?? make sure ur device is being seen type in adb devices...
also one issue when getting that error is debugging is not turned on... let me know what you find n gimme an update hopefully we can get it working for you
I DL'd the boot animation from droid life today for the new D2.
Moved it to the tools folder and renamed it.
booted phone into recovery, went to partions menu and mounted system
opened command prompt. cd \sdk\tools to open tools folder
adb shell
typed commands and I tried it various ways. I copied and pasted it your way, I tried it by leaving off the ".zip", etc..
For some reason I just can't get this to work. I even tried it with "/system/customize" as someone mentioned in another thread. I give up.
once ur in sdk\tools folder
DO NOT ENTER COMMAND "ADB SHELL"
thats why ur getting that issue..
once you open cmd prompt type in and navigate to your sdk\tools folder just copy n paste the following commands
Adb push VZW_bootanimation /system/customize/resource/
Adb push VZW_Droid.mp3 /system/customize/resource/
The transfer should show on screen after every command
Then on ur phone hit the optical button to unmount
Hit ur power button to go back a screen
Then reboot system and ur custom bootanimation and sound should load..
thats why u were getting that error dont got into adb shell just run those commands as soon as u navigate to sdk\tools folder
this should work no problem now.... GOOD LUCK!!!

i appreciate your response.......but you don't understand my problem....my phone neither detects sdcard nor download file from market[also through browser]....could you suggest any other way ......please its urgent.....
i tried with terminal emaluator but showing permission denied....but my phone is rooted.......
after fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 , a bricked phone can see the sdcard.
don't try to connect your computer to your device, computer will not see your sdcard, sdcard will be only readable by the device.
if all of that doesn't work you have probably a problem with your sdcard.

First use a adapter and check if u can read your card on the computer, if it does backup your content, and format. (If u have HTC Synk installed, close it)
*insert the card in your phone.
*press volume down + power
*chose fastboot
*connect your phone (make sure it say fastboot usb before u continue)
*open cmd, go to AndroidSDK -> Tools
*Type "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"
Reboot, and your card should be up and running. If needed continue with the steps from the Unbrick guide in dev

Below are what I did before I kept getting the error "Removed SD card"...
Eclair 2.1 with update 1.
1. Create goldcard. Success.
2. Then i went on with the rooting guide, without applying RUU.1.31.
3. Failed in step1-windows.bat, step2-windows.bat. Thus kept creating goldcard.(obviously i am so newbie)
4. Then after sometimes of retrying I get the error after a reboot.
After i got the error, I created a goldcard based on the previous CID i got.
The goldcard enables me to downgrade to RUU.1.31.
But still the error is still there.
Tried the unbrick guide.
But even after I execute "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0",
then follow the guide with "fastboot oem boot", my USB still didn't work.
Ignoring the fact that the guide needs SD capability I did all the steps in the guide(i use softroot, since i never rooted my legend yet!),
all commands went through without error, even retried.
Till now my phone stilll shows the error, "Removed SD card".
Can anyone help me? Paul? anyone?
Card i used: 1. Sandisk 2GB card that comes with the phone(my goldcard), 512MB old microSD card.
Guides used: modaco rooting guide and unbrick guide
Both cards are working well, can be detected in windows and no error when checked with h2testw in windows.
Windows can detect Legend when connected. Drivers all good.
So guys, is this really USB bricked or what it is?
If u guys need any information bout the phone please let me know, i'll try to provide.
help me
Please help me. I have the same problem and I do not know where to write command oem fastboot enableqxdm 0

hi ..
i need help with this ,, i already posted on Q/A forum and didn't get any answers !!
i want to make some changes on the squashed.sqsh file but i can't cause it is read only !!
so is there a way to unsquash it or unpack it and then resquash the file ??
i did some search and found out that this could only be done on linux so i went ahead and downloaded the latest Ubuntu build
and tried this command
"sudo squashfs /home/'user'/desktop/extract /home/'user'/desktop/squashed.sqsh"
the file is on my desktop
but i get command not found ..
i searched and found that i need to download "squashfs-tools" and i did download version 4.1
but now how do i install it ??
the read me says that i have to use "make" command but i don't know how to use it !!
i also searched and it is all complicated and i couldn't figure out the way to install it !!
this is my first time using linux !!
please help cause as for now Android on NAND is pretty much useless for me !!
i'll be sure to make a guide after this .. for people who want to modify the squashed.sqsh file ..
I agree with you too.. Nand is kinda useless for the EU HD2.. TMOUS HD2 are lucky to have 1gb ROM.. these days i'm having nothing on my phone :/

to unpack a squashed image use this command:
sudo unsquashfs /your directory/system.sqsh, this yo will do inside the directory that you have your system.sqsh
then to repack it use sudo squashfs /the unquashed system folder/ system.sqsh
there might be some mistakes its been a while since iv tampered with sytem images squashed. hopefully you have an idea now

thank you very much for the help
it is nice to see that people still care about each other
i actually tried that but i get an error
Code:
Parallel unsquashfs: Using 2 processors
713 inodes (2805 blocks) to write
dir_scan: failed to open directory squashfs-root, because File exists
[| ] 0/2805 0%
created 0 files
created 0 directories

created 0 devices
created 0 fifos
I can't squshfs.. just unsqushfs, thats all..
EDIT: someone helped me solving all the problems, its mksquashfs.
So, any luck being able unsquash and squash? Have any of you been able to modify system files using this method? I'd love to be able to modify framework-res.apk. Seems like a difficult process though....
I'll try making a tutorial for who doesn't know how to do those methods.

yes please i tried the above command but couldn't get it to work on my machine !!
it says something about failed to access squashed-root because file exists !!!
any help would be appreciated
This can be done within Windows aswell. You just have to grab this package and unzip into a new folder.
Copy the squashed.fsqh into this folder and execute
>unsquashfs squashed.sqsh
it will create a folder squashfs-root.
Now you can edit whatever you want. When you are done use this command to repack. Note that you must delete the old sqaushed.sqsh before you do so or you will get an error message
>mksquashfs squashfs-root squashed.sqsh -all-root
now you can connect to the device with adb and log into shell
>adb shell
And delete the squashed.sqsh on the device
#rm /system/squashed.sqsh
#exit
and reeboot
>adb reboot
The device will stop during boot because the squashed.sqsh ist missing
connect with adb and push the new squashed.sqsh
>adb push squashed.sqsh /system/squashed.sqsh
and reboot
>adb reboot
Done!
Note that this is for gauners Rom. He used squashfs 4.0. Maybe you will need 4.1 for other roms. I don´t know. Not a linux guy

thank you very much for the answer
i got it unsquashed by dragging the squashed.sqsh to unsquash.exe
"because when i try opening the unsquash.exe and mksquash.exe i get a cmd with a bunch of lines for like half a second and then it exits before i even do any thing"
then i tried putting it back togeather by draging squashed-root folder to mksquash.exe and it didn't work ??
i also tried squash-tools 4.1 and the same error happened !!
running out of options here
Ehm... This a command line tool. You have to open a cmd window and cd to the folder where you have the unsquash und mksquash files. The execute the commands.
Do you have adb installed and working? This is part of the android sdk. You will need it to push the file after repacking.
Ok here's the story..i've download several framework-res.apk file and wanted to push it to my phone, but i dont know how..anyone in the theme thread will said push it through ADB and i know nothin about ADB which make me think a better way (and get me a bootloop) . I paste the framework-res.apk into the root of my sd card. Then open root explorer, navigate to sd card, copy the framework-res.apk then go to /system/framework mount r/w then paste it..guess what? my phone reboot and i just yess!! it workss!!
and here you go, I got a present which is stuck at "Sony Ericsson" text and freeze there and starting to panic like hell
Ok, Here how i manage to repair it without losing anything:
1. Get SuperOneClick. Extract it anywhere. (i extract it at desktop)
2. In your computer, navigate to C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32 and find cmd.exe and
copy it. Then paste in in SuperOneClick folder.
3. Now connect your phone to your computer and press the power button to
start the phone. You will get the bootloop which is "Sony Ericsson" text and
freeze there.
4. Now in SuperOneClick folder, open SuperOneClick.exe which you used to
rooted you phone. When superoneclick box come out, press "SHELL ROOT"
and leave superoneclick process it. A box will come out said:
"Device has a temporary ADB root!"
"Reboot your device to remove it"
5. Thats the trick! At this point your phone will still stuck at Sony Ericsson text.
6. Get original framework-res.apk. in superoneclick folder ealier make new folder
inside name it framework.
7. Now remember the cmd you paste earlier in superoneclick folder? click it.
At this point make sure ur X8 still connected to ur computer and already
do the step no 4.
8. cmd box will come out (black box). type in "adb remount" without quote.
you will see "remount succeeded" after you type command above.
9. Remount succeeded above mean, you already have full privilege whether to
copy and paste file in /system. At this time u still stuck at the
"Sony Ericsson" text.
10. Now remember the original framework-res.apk in framework folder earlier?
now we gonna push the original file into /system.
in the cmd box (black box) after u see the remount succeeded. type in
this command without quote:
"adb push framework /system/framework"
Explanation: "adb push" an order to adb to push the file.
"framework" folder [email protected] u made earlier in superoneclick
folder that contain orig framework-res.apk
"/system/framework" is the location of orig framework-res.apk
in ur phone.
11. After u type the command above..cmd will show the file been push and there
will be 1 push and 0 skipped. And if u successful doing all of the step above,
ur phone will reboot automatically and no more bootloop.
This is what happen to me and how i manage to repair my phone without losing anything and without pc companion. This tutor can be useless to the expert but very useful for beginner like me.
You can also push others file with this method too, like conversation.apk and bunch of others system file..you just have to know the exact location of original file in ur phone and change my command above to push the file onto /system according to the location.
*Every file needed for above process is included in my attachment.

So to change the splash screen of your android phone 1st you need to Set up ADB if you already haven't..
Set up ADB from Here:
http://droidination.wordpress.com/2012/02/01/how-to-set-up-adb/
Now after setting up the ADB you need to Follow these instructionsto change your splash screen:
1.First you need to copy a cmd.exe file to Heimdall’s Folder like this
2.Now put your phone into download mode and open the file ZADIG in the drivers folder.
3.Install The drivers now
4.Now open Cmd and type the foll command:
heimdall flash –param /location/of/param.lfs
5.Now your phone will be rebooted and you will see the Download mode logo instead of your orignal logo
6.Now create your own logo using Photoshop or any other Photo Editor and make sure its in the ratio 480×800..
7.put the logo file in the platform tools folder in android sdk..
8.Paste and open the cmd in the platform tools folder..
9.Put your phone in download mode and Connect it to the computer..
10.Type in the following command in the CMD window:
adb push Logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs
adb reboot
11.You Will Now see your logo file Instead of the orignal one..
You Can Check out the orignal Post from here:
http://droidination.wordpress.com/2...e-splash-screen-of-your-galaxy-s-easiest-way/
Click the thanks button if i helped..
so...can I just make a logo.jpg and put into mnt/.lfs by root explorer?
(btw,and its funny to see i9003 and docomo logos in .lfs file)
Yes 1st u have to make a logo.jpg of resolution 480*800 only..
u can make it using Photoshop..
Then just open terminal emulator in your GTi9000.. if u dont have it download it from the android market..
Copy the logo.jpg file in the root of your SDCARD..
and type the following command:
"cp /mnt/sdcard/logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs" [Without Quotations]
Reboot your phone now..
now you will see your logo.jpg file as the boot image/splash screen..
It would not replace it by root explorer.."
Yes i was also shocked to see the i9003 and docomo logos..
click the thanks button if i helped..
I just made the splash screen by removing samsung logo from the original
(hey samsung you have made a big enough logo on our phones! no need to put one on boot!)
saved as /mnt/sdcard/logo.jpg 800×480 of course
opened terminal emulator, typed
Code:
cp /mnt/sdcard/logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs
and get the following code without logo.jpg replaced
Code:
cp: can't create '/mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg': File exists
also tried copying with root explorer, but it also turns out to be the original image
(even deleteing the original and put new logo.jpg to /mnt/.lfs)
(of course I have a backup of original image)
will this be something wrong with busybox?
EDIT:it seems everything that gets into /.lfs can't be deleted by RE or terminal emulator. weird...
First u have to type su to enable superuser access then type that command..
make sure u have busybox installed..!! if not just download the terminal IDE app from market then do the same thing this will work 4 sure..!!
To be clear, I have root, busybox 1.19.3 , superuser permitted terminal IDE,
typed su this time but still no luck.
(and when I tried to rm a accidentally copied jpg from /mnt/.lfs , terminal IDE even says 'operation not permitted' . WHAT? I have already "su"ed!)
Doubt that I must go through download mode in order to write in movinand.
Anyway thanks for providing all the info on splash screen replacement. Cheers.

I second that. I am root and mounted /system as rw, it does not allow me to rm or even mv the /mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg to anywhere. Even root explorer cannot rename the default logo.jpg. Operation not permitted is the error I get. I am using gingerbread 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD.JPKPE build. Dont know if they added some second layer of protection...
