[Q] Flash bootanimation - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed a rom on my Nexus 4 (Based off of 4.4) and I want the stock bootanimation.
Is it possible to flash the stock bootanimation on any rom?
Thanks in advance!

Yes. Get the stock bootanimation.zip and copy it to /system/media and set the right permissions

Or /data/local if you want it to persist thorough ROM flashes.

Bootanimation Question

Hey guys,
I have a bootanimation that is on my Galaxy Nexus, and I would like to put it on my Nexus 7. Is this possible?
Thanks
Why don't you just try it? Copy bootanimation.zip from /system/media and set the permissions to rw-r--r--.

I don't see anything wrong, just copying it in should work.

Cwm not saving backups

Recently I noticed after making a back up it's not saved. I get no errors but it's not in my clockworkmod/backups folder. Can anyone help?

What version of CWM? Do you have anything in that folder? Do you have a folder named blobs in the CWM folder?

Yes, that is because in 4.2 you need to look under /data/media/clockworkmod.

Why not just get them from the 4.2.1 stock rom?

....or one of the flashable odexed zips for stock 4.2.2

SystemUI.apk 4.2.2 JDQ39 Nexus 7 3G 32GB

Anyone who has a stock apk can share me please.
Why not just download the factory image and extract the apk?

Just download the factory image, unzip it with WINRAR (or any other programme) then unzip the ROM file and pull SystemUI.apk from /system/app.

I really dont know what rom your using , AHA, and here's the information about how Bootanimation.zip can be placed in /system/media with custom roms or in or /data/local with stock roms with custom kernels as Battery Extender, Cf-root...
So, mount system (R/W) and paste bootanimation.zip in system/media/ or in in /data/local/ and set the correct permissions rw--r--r-- (if it doesn't work set rwxrwxrwx as permissions , and i hope someone willing to help you with this problem.Have a nice day.
