Ok thanks buddy i want to install some theme.apk but after i install it how do i apply it?
Just get root explorer and copy and paste the .apk into the system/app folder. Sometimes you may have to reboot for it to take.
My phone is not in english so its hard to explain what button to push But It is button above "Search", it has little brush on it. Tap that and go to Skin and find your theme that you installed.

Simple as that.
Goes for HTC EVO 3D too, as well as any 540×960 android phone.
Animation ported from "Google齿轮" MIUI theme.
Make it:
/system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip, or
/system/customize/resource/TMOUS_bootanimation.zip, if you have a T-Mobile Sensation, or
/system/customize/resource/VF_bootanimation.zip, if you have a Vodafone Sensation.
nice one.... thanks
Thanks a lot for this.
Just renamed the current bootanimation.zip file, copied this one into its place, rebooted and it's working fine.
Cheers!
Seems i can't copy the zip file to the system folder.
Got an error about "read only"!
What am i doing wrong?
(sorry about bad english, i'm dutch!)

permissions?
Yeah i think it has something to do with permissions but I don't know how I can change this.
Tried to Google it but couldn't find it.
Ps. Using ASTRO to copy the files.

Use es file explorer from market (better than astro imho). Put on root option and mount system as writable. Then you can rename original bootanimation.zip and place new as bootanimation.zip. if you don't like new one, delete bootanimation.zip and rename original to bootanimation.zip

Thanks for the info m_speksnijder, with ES Explorer it works!
New bootscreen looks great!
I think I am going mad I have flashed 4.1.7 and cant seem to find where to put the boot amimation? I thought I would have to replace one that is already there? sorry if a stupid question but if you can help it would be great
I have something caled downanimation in system/customize/resource but that is the only zip file in there, do I just to copy this file to this directory and reboot?
EDIT its ok it is in data/local if anybody else needs the file location
cheers for a great boot animation

Using ES file explorer. Put on root? Do you mean root your device? If that case, I am rooted, and all that.
But I can't find System folder :S
Open ES, hit menu button, scroll down to "root options" section, turn on both options (root explorer and mount file system), exit menu, klik on the blue star on the left in de topbar and click on the "phone" icon. Then navigate to "system/customize/resource" or "data/local" (depends on the rom your using). than follow my earlier post. If you're done, turn of the option "mount file system" just to be sure you do not delete anything when scrolling around in your system partitions.

Thx! Now, just download bootanimation/downanimation and rename the new one? Then restart the device and all done?
And what happens if I accedentaly delete something when scrolling down?
Thanks works like a charm. I change permissions just in case.
Nice work...
I like it! Clean, simple... very nice.
Having issues with MIUI's market app not allowing me to download and install any app above 20mb and someone suggested to get GTG's 2.2.3 Infused Rom.
Would anyone with that ROM or any rom that can spot me the new and properly working version of the Market?
Thanks in advance.
Anybody? Pretty please?

why dont you just download the gtg's Rom and pull out the market.apk and the other file you need.
it should only take like 5 mins to extract and load up on your phone.

Have you tried reflashing I have no problem with apps in the market...

Just download either of the Infused ROM's 1.6.0 or 2.3.3then open it up with any zip program (7zip, winzip, etc). Look for \system\app\vending.apk then copy the file to your desktop. Plug in your phone and copy it to a location on your SD Card. Open Root Explorer or some similar root enabled file explorer and navigate to where you copied vending.apk, then copy it and place it in \system\app. Reboot after and you should be good to go.

You need to delete some of the apps first because the rom is too big..
Change the keyboard, install a new one and delete the old one..also delete the launcher & use a small size one..
delete ringtones from system/media (use link2sd+root explorer for that)
And install light gapps from here..
Read the thread again before posting...people there have mentioned how to flash gapps..

In system/app delete these:
CMWallpapers.apk
Development.apk
Email.apk
Exchange2.apk
Galaxy4.apk
HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk
LiveWallpapers.apk
LiveWallpapersPicker.apk
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
QuickSearchBox.apk
Rom Manager
SoundRecorder.apk
SpareParts.apk
VideoEditor.apk
In system/media/audo remove ringtones.
Some of these applications is not in the ROM, but I do not know which.
What's up, remove it and Add to archive with winrar or 7z and make .zip file.
Thanks for your reply..

Press the left button and in menu choose Manage Applications and you see how much free memory you have on the internal memory.
The space not enough in lib folder not in all internal memory!!

I do not know. I've not have such a case. The important thing is that before you paste the file in
Root Explorer to set the R / O instead of the R / W.
Yes before i paste the file in Root Explorer i set the R / O instead of the R / W.
I also tried to replace the lib folder already present in the internal memory with the folder that I downloaded from the post, but then I can't change the permissions of the file...

In Root Explorer copy file and go in data/data/flashe player and paste there. Copy from original place. From maps where is installation package for flashe player.
The original paack is zip file, i extract this and copy with root explorer but the file there isn't in lib folder!!

Before you begin you need to install these two apks
1. Apk Editor.apk
2. Apk editor patch.apk
Installing same application twice
Now after downloading these two apks.
First, install Apk Editor and then the Apk editor patch.
Now open Apk editor and browse to the apk of the application you want to install.
Long press the apk and select "Clone".
Now change the name of the apk and press ok.
Now open your regular file manager and install the apk as you would normally

Anyone knows of a solution for marshmallow?
Opening apk editor only gives empty folder.
Hey I was wondering if there is any app, or any way to get the images from apps? An example, I wanna make a website wiki of a card game. I need the card images.
Bump!

Any file explorer, i would recommend to use ES File Explorer save the apk to the sd card then you can open it there.

For some reason some of the APKs do not have all the images in the APK file. I think some of these apps download a whole bunch more stuff after installing T_T. Now I need to find that and see whats up.

Then you can probably find it with a file explorer by app data....
You might need root for this.
I am not sure what i am saying
If you have the apk file you can easily decompress it.
Just rename the apk to zip and open it with winrar.
