Too bad its not the same thing.

Does anyone know if we could pull this apk from a desire rom, de-odex (if need be) then resign the apk and install?
Or would this widget need to live in /system?
Anyone know if there's a rom or leak out we could pull it from? I believe it would need to be from WVGA device...

Awesome! I'm new to Android (First smartphone here) but that doesn't work. I tried installing with AppInstaller and adjusted my phone settings to install apps not in the market.
No dice. It starts up like it is going to install, then says "Authorization Failed".
Could it be for a different build only?
Thank you anyhow.

Ditto. Doesn't work.

Yeah I said that earlier (in another thread). Probably gonna have to wait for root and ADB push it.

oh man so so close! I actually get to the point where its about to install, and then I get "Application not Installed" with the yellow exclamation point next to it. It even shows the newspaper icon! A little digging around, and some random posts suggest it has to do with 'application signing'.
Know anything about this?

Yea, you need superuser (root) access.

Hope you don't mind Gimpeh but I posted the apk on a few other sites to see if anyone else can do something with it. If they are able to get it working I will re-post it here most definitly.

Whatever it takes to get it working. Although I have a feeling we will be waiting for root.

Is the apk de-odexed? I.E., when you open the apk, is there a classes.dex in there?

Yep. Can you help? I tried installing via ADB in the SDK, but still no dice. I also tried signing the APK with a debugging key, and again, no dice.

[BOOTANIMATION] XoomNexus

This is the Xoom boot animation ported for the Nexus One. All credits go to tntdroid over at the androidcentral forums for his DroidX port.
Instructions
Place in tools folder, open a cmd prompt and:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
Link.
Link2
Alternatively, flash the Xoom-signed file in your recovery of choice:
Link
Note: The little honeycomb bee is not part of the bootanimation but rather seems to be a splash screen, which as of yet N1 users can't change.

Do these instructions apply to the HD Desire port also...like MM's 1.7 build? Or is there some other location to push it to?
Thanks...looks cool.

Hmmm both links work just fine here. Try this link.
Edit: Just attached to the first post.

Must be my rom... u on cm7?
Edit: was able to dl from the xda app, thanks for adding to post!!

The video doesn't do it justice.
I was hesitance because honestly it didn't look all that with the video.
I tried it and in person it's awesome looking. Thank you.
Also: I used Root Explorer to move the file to data/local

Yep, all N1 ROMs should be compatible, in fact unless I missed something all 800x480 devices should be compatible.

Good news every! This works perfectly!
This would be a sick live wallpaper...anyone? Anyone?

There is something different with the HD desire roms, neither typical locations work when pushed.

+1 to this. I have rebooted twice in a row just to watch it!

Any possibility of this being made to a flashable zip? If anyone could be kind enough to do so for the more less experienced users it would be greatly appreciated.......thnx.

It is really simple. Use root explorer to place the zip file in data/local. Reboot and enjoy.

I'll have a look into making one tomorrow. I've been meaning to try my hand at making an update-script so I'll have a crack at it then. Oh and baseballfanz is correct, Android Mate also has a root file explorer.

Cool man , appreciate it if you could, not just for me but for others as well. I fully understand all the help and advice thats being givin and will try my hand at all of it, i have no problem with learning more as i go.
i guess my whole point with a flashable zip is just providing more options, i mean i always thought that was the whole concept of open source, providing options....ya know? Again thnx for the responses and all the work everyone puts into the android world, its a fun experience...really is..

Thanks, great job

metamorph file changes please read

So I did I metamorph to change my 3g icon and when I look through my file managers, whether its astro or root explorer I can't seem to find that file or same icon, iv done a search and it comes up with nothing. But from just looking around I can find different 3g icons but not the one I'm running. So I guess my question is, is there a way to find it or get rid of the morph I did?

Metamorph applies the image to the apk itself so the only way to view the file or revert back to what you had, you will either have to download and decompile the apk or reflash the previous apk to revert back.

[Q] CRT-OFF Animation

Hello everyone, I re-edited this post. I would like to know if there is a way to edit the framework.apk and go to the bools (I think) and refit some of the XML codes so we could have our old gingerbread lock animation, all help will be appreciated. Thank you.

wow, thats an offensive first post )to the eyes that is)
and short answer, not really, after a full reboot, the change is lost...
best way to find out? try it! im not a fan of it, so im not even going to bother, but if you root, keep it and copy the files to system, it should work in theory...
but im pretty sure that you have to reboot for the settings to stick :/

k thanks, sorry for the letters im new with this.

And to the OP I don't know but like the above poster said try to copy the files you need to /SYSTEM and then use the FastReboot app, to trick your phone into believing that you have rebooted it and hoefully the changes will stick.
Let us know if it works!

So what exactly does this mean:
"successively rooted our HTC Sensation"
Are you temp-rooting over and over again?

I could be wrong but isn't the CRT animation built into the kernel itself???

It should be in services.odex, I decompiled it using backsmali but I dont know what to edit. Any help?

I found that it should be in PowerManagerService.smali

You have to use a kernel that supports bootanimations.
