Do you have Widget Locker installed?
I do not. from market?
edit: found it, is there a free way to do it?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
All You have to do is create a file named "enable_glass_lock" and put it in /data/local
If you need step by step on this I can tell you multiple ways (some easier then others, but the easy ones may cost for certain apps, such as root explorer)
I can't find /local in my data folder

Wtf really?
It should be there. What are you using to look?
Root explorer?
Try terminal. You can use any free terminal emulator from the market. Use thee commands
$ su
# ls
This should show a list of directories
then:
# CD data
# ls
Again a list should show up and local should be there.
You can also try to change to the local directory to see if you get any errors :
# CD local
If you can CD to local then it exists and you are either not looking properly or whatever app you are using doesn't see it. Terminal is sure fire way to see if it exists.

If you think you could hang with typing some pretty long instructions using terminal emulator, it can be done manually. It's not for the faint of heart... and if you typed in the wrong bml and screw up your phone, it wouldn't be my fault.
If you can hang with that, then cool, I could post some instructions. All this is just so much easier though with the one click method.

Ok how long is it and how do I do it
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
OK...
Firstly, root the phone with z4root from the market. Also get Astro file manager and Android Terminal Emulator from the market while you're there. Connectbot can also be used as a terminal.
Download the one click root 1.4.0 from noobnl to your phone. Extract the contents using Astro file manager. Copy the following files and put them on the root of your sdcard:
redbend_ua
zImage
Now open the terminal app, and type the following commands exactly:
Code:
su
cat /sdcard/redbend_ua > /data/local/tmp/redbend_ua
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/redbend_ua
/data/local/tmp/redbend_ua restore /sdcard/zImage /dev/block/bml8
Your phone will reboot after the flash.
Remember to type the commands exactly.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
OK, if you want to cleanup afterwards, go back into terminal and type the following commands:
Code:
su
rm /data/local/tmp/redbend_ua
I will encourage anyone who reads this to not play with redbend_ua unless you know what you are doing. These instructions will work if done exactly to the letter.
Once again, I take no responsibility if you hose your phone.

Also, make a backup with ClockworkMod after you install it, so you have your current rom saved, just in case.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Download rom manager, then use rom manager to download clockwork mod, then use astro which is a free app available in the market which is very useful, to open the sd card folder, then go to clockwork mod folder then copy recovery-update.zip and paste it to the root of your sd card and rename it just update. It's already a zip file so you don't have to type.zip. Now reboot into stock recovery and apply update.zip. Does not work with froyo. But if you down load the clockwork redirect, then you can install that once you get into clockwork recovery after you flash a froyo rom before you reboot. But using adb to flash the permanent clockwork kernel is the best way.....try this......update.zip method:
1. boot into ClockworkMod Recovery
2. Apply : http://www.sdx-downloads.com/devs/noobnl/clockworkmod2.5.1.0update-fixed.zip

How, how did you make it work!!!
I've downloaded redbend_ua and the clockwork recovery image. They're both currently on my sdcard's root. I'm trying to copy redbend_ua, but there's no 'cp' command???
I've been a Linux SysAdmin for over 5 years, so I'm comfortable on the command line. Where's cp? Is there an easy way to install bash 3?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I can't link the post with tapatalk, but detailed instructions are in a post labeled "Clockwork recovery no computer method"
By default the cp command isn't included in android... it is included in busybox. There is an app on the market, and the one click roots install it by default. Without busybox the cat command is used as so: cat > .

when i press that at the system/customize/resource menu nothing happens liek i didnt even touch it... and i checked superuser and it has root permissions!
So when you press the button that says "mount r/w" near the top nothing happens? It doesn't change to "mount r/o"?

flashed back to CM7 and was able to successfully change the boot image!
Or u can simply use an app on the app store called. Boot Animation Changer Lite. Once u download it you will get a folder in your sd card that says like bootamios or something. Click on stock and delete the zip file that's in there. Drag the animation u want in there the .zip file and exit. Go back to app. Click animation in bottem righht. Scroll all the way down till u see stock and done.

Just use terminal, your app might be messing up or having compatibility issues for some reason.
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /location/to/bootanimation.zip /system/media
That should do it.
Example:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp sdcard/zips/animate/bootanimation.zip /system/media
i think it might of had something to do with the sense rom i was running, because once i flashed back to cm7 it was a piece of cake
Is there an animation sound that goes with lets say the honeycomb boot animation?

For everyone that s having trouble with this...just follow vandale's method.worked for me. Just gotta make sure a different directory isn't also created. If so just delete and move the.zip file to the appropiate location. It'll work just fine after that.

Since then i have flashed back to a sense rom and now i am trying to flash the vanilla mms app instead of the stock htc one. i have removed the HTc one but once again when try to mount r/w its like i didnt even push the button. it works when im not in the system folder but when in the system folder it wont allow me to press it. i have tried different root explorers but none seem to work with sense. but i know they work for other people so i dont know what to do!

I did once. and I've found that if I go into the bootanim folder and replace the bootanimation.zip in the stock folder, then go to boot anamation changer and tell it to run stock then it will change it to the new file however that just seems like a dumb way to go about doing it.

Special thank youz:

what you need:
adb installed (and working )
gps.conf: here
in adb enter these cmds:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
adb push gps.conf /system/etc
adb shell reboot
or
what you need:
any file manager app that mounts the system r/w (read write)
aps.conf on sdcard
copy gps.conf from sdcard and go to /system/etc folder,
click mount r/w button or however you are mounting system r/w
paste
reboot

ADB help
Hey, just a few questions. I'm brand new to ADB tools.
I got my cmd prompt to show me the serial of my device using adb devices. Im sure this means my adb tools are working. Ive only installed SDB tools and platform tools.
Do I need to download the 2.2 tools?
The problem is when I type in the first cmd i get a operation error.
2nd question is how do I get all of your gps.config code into the cmd prompt. Do I place the file somewhere on my computer for it to be recognized in your second cmd step.
Thanks in advanced.

You can push manually with a file manager. Its in op also.
Also the GPS. Conf is a file.

Ive tried a lot of different ways to get it to work and I think ive gotten to the point where it might be something else other than my commands. I just get a mountperation not permitted. The following is an example of what I typed. The $ sign was created after I typed in adb shell.
1 "adb shell
2 $mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
3 mountperation not permitted"
Tell me I did something wrong.
You need to "su" before you try and mount -_-

I messed around with that for awhile and I think I got a little further. I seem to still get a little stuck after I mount.
1. /android-sdk/platform-tools>adb shell
2. $su
3. #mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
4. mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
5. #
On line 4 the cmd prompt just spits that back out at me and it ends up back at # again. How do I know it mounted and how do I begin the pushing process. My gps.conf file is in my platform-tools folder. Thanks!
Throw me a bone. Im so close! I can feel it!
How do I get gps.conf file?
link in OP just takes me to a page with a lot of text-No download.
Right click and click save as or save link as. It should automatically name it as gps.conf
