With Froyo, bootscreen has change location. Now it's system/customize/resources. The problem is that you can't overwrite it, it's protected...... If anyone knows how to fix it .....

If your rooted download Root Explorer (£2.50) from the market, copy bootanimation.zip to SD card then move it to the correct folder using Root Explorer. (mine's is in /data/local) I'm using Pinky Desire v1.3 ROM

works once but cant change the one i push now lol

Have a look inside the file, some bootimages are flashable, some have to be pushed. And if the folder structure is wrong/old in the ones to flash it won't work - extract bootanimation.zip and push it.

Try pushing via ADB
application not installing?
Hi, when I am installing stock.apk and the widget it goes to the installer and just cancels on me I tried this multiple times and things aren't working for me. .
Any suggestions on how to fix this I really like the stock ticker option for the widget.
I am running Warm 2.2 rls5 on htc incredible with the stock ziggy kernal
Thank You:
Alexyaz
same here
I can start the installation and there is a processbar. But in the end it just says that the application has not been installed.
Is there a log file that could hint anything?
don't install it like a normal APK, copy it directly to /system/app with ADB or Root Explorer.

I accidentally deleted this from the stock rom through Titanium and now I'm trying to get it back. I moved the APK to the /system/app folder with Root Explorer and it's still not showing up. I will try the ADB route tonight.

What version do you currently have?
Did it come with your rom or did you download it?
You can backup your settings (export) to your sdcard and restore (import) with the new version if by chance your settings are not preserved.
Im using CM 5.0.8 ,and it came with 0.8.9.
And how do i go about doing that export/import?
Either download link from your phone and install or download on PC put on SD card open file manager and install are easiest. Put it on a friends phone. Looks good. Backup and restore are in settings adw.

Do a search for ADW.Launcher in the Market, it's there. Just make sure you have a period in between "ADW" and "Launcher."
Hey,
I'm interested in updating the ADW.Launcher version that came with my CM5.0.8 rom, but I don't know if it's OK to update through market or get the apk file and use "adb install" or find a zip file to flash...
Could anyone make some light in here pls?
Thanks!
I have tried downloading the apk file for my CM5x and MDPI device from Anderweb's page but when I tried to "adb install" I get...
INSTALL_FAILED_ALREADY_EXISTS
Can someone shed some light? Is there a way to update the ADW.Launcher that comes with a specific ROM version?
Tried using android commander?
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA App
Since I'm new to this scene, what is the difference between the "adb install" method and using the Android Commander (which I need install)?
Would Astro help in this case, because I remember reading that has support for installing apk files?
I'd like to do this update as clean as possible.
Thank you for the reply!
PS: I have actually installed Android Commander and installed the ADW.Launcher apk for CM5x MDPI as an Update (wasn't sure what to chose between Private, Application or Update) and the installer said it was successful but after reboot I still have the old version 0.8.6
Any ideas?
U can download it put it on your sdcard and install with a file manager. Doesn't matter which way u go. Should work. Done it both ways
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA App
I did it somewhat the way you said and installed it with Android Explorer as an update because the regular installation would fail with the error that the application already exists.
The problem is that the new version gets copied into /data/apps/ and I can start using it but after the first reboot it's not there anymore and I get back to the one that came with my CM5.0.8 rom which is in /system/apps/
I would really like to get a solution that would update the one in /system/apps/ which might be harder because it's a memory mapped version of the ROM and changes get lost after reboot.
Please correct me where I am wrong...
Have u tried goin to the market and installing it from there? It's like version 1.4.1 or something now
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA App
place the file on your /sd.
adb push /sdcard/filename.apk /system/app
restart home or reboot phone.
I ended up installing the one from Market and making that the default launcher, but I would really like to just replace the one in the system folder - no need to keep 2 versions of the same app
I'll try the method NetrixTardis was suggesting.
U can do it through the terminal as well. Maybe removing the old one will solve it. Use the rm command in the terminal and see if u can do it that way. Ex.
$su (enter after each line)
#rm /system/app/(name of app.apk)
Then u can use cp command to copy the one from your sdcard.
Cp /sdcard/(app.apk) /system/app/
Someone correct me if I'm wrong in the lines
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA App
hey johnson8cyl
I'll try that and let you know if it worked, should I copy it to the same name?
like /system/app/adwlauncher.apk is the name for the system app, while the Market installed one is org.adwlauncher....apk
do you guys know a good keyboard replacement and a way to configure the vibration alarm on my CM5.0.8? these are mostly the things I miss from my stock ROM
oh...forgot to mention the CM5.0.8 default camera does not have all the setting (like I can't set the ISO), is there one that does that trick?
thanks!
I'll answer the keyboard part. I've got Smart Keyboard installed and its a lot better than the stock Android one.
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA App
U have to use the names exactly the one your removing and one your copying. Names have to be what u want to remove or copy. That make sense?
Sent from my Chromatic Magic using XDA App
Makes total sense to keep the same names only that I have this problem...
any ideas? kinda makes sense because that comes from the ROM and is mounted as read-only
# su
su
# pwd
pwd
/system/app
# rm -f ADWLauncher.apk
rm -f ADWLauncher.apk
rm: can't remove 'ADWLauncher.apk': Read-only file system
ps: I actually managed to fix this what was missing is "adb remount" to mount system partition read-write
So you figured it out? Were you able to get it removed and replaced?

Wildfire boot animation help

Alrite guys avin a prob I've rooted my fone installed root explorer and trying to change boot animation but when I try sometimes says not enough space although there is ...and reboots the fone any ideas or easier methods appreciated ...p.s tried the boot animation chamber and that restarts fone with no changes too if that helps
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App ....respect
The actual boot animation that you need to replace is located in system/customize/resources,not system/media. And it would be better if you push the file while in recovery mode unless you have the kernel from Martineve

Yeah, that's because you need the AUFS overlay kernel. Find it and flash it (it's in the Wildpuzzle thread)

you dont have to have R/W for that to change the boot animation, just mount /system and /data in recovery mode and push the bootanimation file to the /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip using adb.

as far as i remember, CWM will be removed each time you restart your phone,unles you have a custom kernel/rom.
but its been long time ago when i did that x3
If stock there is a file that needs to be removed or renamed,

No. You merely need to rename / remove the install-recovery.sh script in /etc to prevent the stock recovery from writing at boot.

Yeah, restoring the file will then cause the stock recovery to be written upon reboot (if you want to go back to the stock recovery for some reason).
same but i solved it

open it and touch flash clockworkmod recovery(first item)
select reboot into recovery manual
mount and storage select
mount USB storage
unmount

'' super user.zip'' flash
reboot
es file explorer select setting mark root explorer and mount file system after
select phone in file explorer find etc folder select and find ''install-recovery.sh'' file and rename file for example ''install-recovery.sheski'' and
open rom manager again touch flash clockworkmod recovery(first item)

[REQUEST] Flashable Build.prop

You can re flash your ROM in recovery or mount system and use something like adb or android commander to push a stable build.prop to it.

For what? Stock GB/ICS, CM9, etc?
If you have valid one you can boot to recovery and use "adb push build.prop /system/build.prop" instead of having a flashable version.
i tried adb and Amora Filemanager and Droid Explorer but i can't delete the files i want to and rename my backup.
so i decided to flash GB rom again.. its a bit of a long shot, but its ok now...
