Download the zip file to the custom screen animation you want to use to your memory card. Boot up into clockwork recovery. Go to install from sdcard then choose files from sdcard. Navigate to the file u want to use then install it. The next time you boot the phone normally it should show you your new screen animation. Atleast that's how I do it with my rooted epic 4g using clockwork recovery

Use adb push or a file explorer with root to place the bootanimation.zip (from my attachment) in the folder "/system/media" it is the animation from your first youtube link.
If it says something like cannot write, read only permission, you have to type this into a console on the phone or in the adb shell first
"mount -w -o remount /system /system\n"
The boot animation is safe, it either shows, or it doesn't.

Yes dont extract just copy it there.
Either your phone supports this and shows the new animation.
If it doesn't support it nothing happens and you see the old animation.
Nothing can really happen. The old animation is still there.
If it is supported your phone will look at that directory and say ahhh a bootanimation.zip lets use that instead of the default one...

[MOD] Six(6) Lockscreens & Power Menu + Clock Options for KC1 [EDT][4.22.2011]

Ok everyone. Here is the lockscreen mod, power menu AND additional clock options for KC1. This will NOT work on Krylon's stock build but ONLY my deodexed one. Since there is no cwm yet you will need to push the files manually with adb or use root explorer to drop them in. Root Explorer is the easiest method. Just be sure to set permissions on all the files to rw-r--r-- after you copy them in.
Lockscreens are Rotary (default), Puzzle, Android, Glass, Epic and Star Wars (Settings > Display > Unlock Screen)(Please be aware - Lockscreen wallpapers are not supported on any of these)
Power Menu (no header) - Reboot, Recovery, Download mode
Clock Options - Hide Clock, Hide am/pm (Settings > Date and Time)
Added "Stay Awake" option (Settings > Applications > Development)
Pretty sure I killed the "battery full" pop-up as well
DOWNLOAD <<<<< KC1 Lockscreens / Power Menu / Clock Options
If using adb here is what to do...
Place the files in the zip in your adb tools folder. Navigate to your tools folder in your cmd prompt and perform these commands
First, mount your system as r/w
Code:
adb shell
su (will need to accept root access on phone)
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
Your system is now mounted as read/write. Now remove the original files from your phone.
Code:
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm /system/framework/framework.jar
rm /system/framework/android.policy.jar
rm /system/framework/services.jar
rm /system/app/Settings.apk
exit
exit
Now push the new files into place.
framework files to framework folder
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
adb push framework.jar /system/framework
adb push android.policy.jar /system/framework
adb push services.jar /system/framework
Settings to app folder
Code:
adb push Settings.apk /system/app
Now the files are all in place, but you need to set the correct permission on them.
Code:
adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework.jar
chmod 644 /system/framework/android.policy.jar
chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
chmod 644 /system/app/Settings.apk
DONE. Now reboot your phone. It will take about 5 minutes to reboot.
Again, you can use Root Explorer to move these files into place manually. Just be sure to set the permissions of all of them to rw-r--r-- after you do.

I would honestly learn the basics before you try any of this.

i allready flashed stock deodexed kc1 rom onto my phone in hopes of putting on the lockscreens but i just wanted to know if the root explorer method was easier like he stated up there

I really want these....but its quite painful setting up all my sync'ed accounts again after flashing. I went from Deodexed to Krylon's Odexed Stock, to go back to Deodexed would be a painful process again to get all my accounts set back up and app's loaded + moved to SD. Also fixing the camera/mms/phone issue with the Deodexed ROM on top of that.
Anybody else have any thoughts? Just do it? Haha

I used ES File Explorer, go into settings, and check the two boxes in Root setting.
Then go to the directory where the zip is saved, extract and copy paste to the right directories. Once that was done I rebooted. It took 5 min or so to boot but It came up. Once done go into settings and change lockscreen.
Worked like a charm for me. Thanks!!!

Oh boy, so I was able to do this via ADB.
But thought I would also try and do it with Root Explorer. I am bored at my job today.
I copied the files to the sdcard. Then opened Root explorer, located the files, using multi- select I selected all but the settings file that goes into the system/app.
I then hit copy/ then tried to paste the four files to system/framework
I get an error that says there isn't enough space. Then I get all sorts of force closes, and have to re-odin the deodexed KC1.
What the hell am I doing wrong? I am sure I am just having a brain fart but its becoming irritating.

Replace cm7 boot animation

Ok, I don't know what's going on. I am unable to replace my boot animation. I've tried flashable zips and for some reason hboot wont recognize them, and yes they are named correctly. Then I tried downloading a zip and replacing /system/media/bootanimation.zip but even with root permissions from terminal it wouldn't let me change anything because it is mounted as an RO filesystem. What do I do???

What kernels do have boot sound?

testing a method...will post back results ...good or bad

I was able to get sound...tried lots n lots. There is a TON posted here on the subject...found my solution in the HTC forums. Don't have the link handy but search CM7 boot sound. There is a file called bootsnd.sh that will append the necessary files and create the bootsound app needed. To finally get this to work I reflashed a new nightly of CM7. This also removed Trinity kernel...so maybe that was mucking things up. Ill reflash Trinity and see.
But to recap ...yes boot sound on LG g2x with cm7 is a go.

Taken from somewhere here in xda. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048231)
I cleared cache and dalvic using CWM.
I flashed a fresh CM7 nightly using CWM.
I Followed terminal emulator instructions...I'm sure adb from command line will work also. I used root explorer to copy android_audio.mp3 (don't forget to set system folder as R/W with root explorer.
1) search for and Download the bootsnd.sh file. Save it to the root directory of your SD Card on your Device.
2. Take whatever sound you want and rename it to: android_audio.mp3 (needs to be mp3 format) and then place in your adb directory.
3. On your phone, open terminal emulator, and type in the following:
su [enter]
cd /sdcard [enter]
ls (to list all files, you should see bootsnd.sh)
sh bootsnd.sh [enter]
You won't see a confirmation, or message, it just runs, and returns you to a # sign.
From your computer, adb push the android_audio.mp3 to the /system/media folder, reboot, and you'll have a sound.
If you don't like or know how to use adb, using root explorer and placing the android_audio.mp3 in the system/media folder works just as well (Mount the /system as R/W First). Reboot, and enjoy your boot sound.
*NOTE*
If you flash / change roms, you'll have to re-run the process to enable the boot sound again. If you get tired of it / don't want it, you can use root explorer and delete the file.
Alternate method:
For those that don't like using the terminal emulator, you can do it via adb:
navigate to your adb folder via commanda prompt, then issue the following commands:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /sdcard
ls [will list files, you should see bootsnd.sh]
sh bootsnd.sh
Like in the emulator, you will be returned with a # sign. Then place the audio file in the folder I specified. Just decided like posting an alt method

Using a utility like Root Explorer (A paid app but worth the 4$, there may be a free alternative), makes this a trivial task...simply click the "Make R/W" will make the system directory ...you guessed it "Read/Writable". Normally its "Read Only" (R/O).
Im not 100% sure about this (im sure ill be corrected) as Root Explorer has made me lazy, but using ADB and issuing the command ADB Remount, will make the file system R/W (per the ADB Wiki adb remount - remounts the /system partition on the device read-write)
So using ADB to push your files, make all your edits on your local machine, then put them in your ADB directory, and issue commands as follows:
ADB remount
ADB push build.prop /system
ADB push init.local.rc /system/etc
ADB push bootsound /system/bin
ADB push android_audio.mp3 /data/local

Grr after I tried it it still doesn't work!!!
EDIT:Im reflashing ROM in case.
EDIT 2 : Yup didn't work.

You'll need root and a way to mount the /system partition rw. I do everything through adb,
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# cp path/to/new/bootanimation.zip /system/media
# busybox chown root:root /system/media/bootanimation.zip
# busybox chmod 644 /system/media/bootanimation.zip
# reboot
There are "root explorer" tools that can probably do it as well.

Thanks. I figured it out by using sgs toolbox app to give it a r/w permission. I was able to delete afterwards.

Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Amigos. Use a root explorer like ES File Explorer by ES Strong. After doing so hit menu button, settings, scroll down to where it says root settings then tap on it, hit the first check box that says for rooted phones only. Then hit the box that says mount system, and also the other box that says make system write able or up to root directory. Once you have do so please hit the back button twice to go back to where you can see the files on your SD card. Once you can do see your SD card files please tap the back button once more and after doing so you shouldn't see all your phone's system files and once you can see them scroll down and open the folder called "system" not sys. I repeat the folder called "system"
Once inside the folder? Hard click on the folder called "Media" and hit copy. Then navigate back to your SD card and past it somewhere on your SD card as a back up just in case you ever want to revert back to the cm9 or whatever boot animation you are currently using. Now once you have backed up the folder called media. Please navigate back to your system folder/media and open it once again. After doing so delete the boot animation zip folder that is inside of it, no worried because that is why you made a back up of the folder on your SD card for then after you delete the one inside system please move this boot animation zip folder to system. By this boot animation zip I mean the cm10 boot loader to system. Capish? Then after doing so exit your file browser and restart your phone and watch as the amazing cm10 boot logo pops up

Try fixing permissions. Either reboot to recovery or change them using a root explorer. Long press on the file, go to properties, permissions should be rw-r-r

Make sure your ROM and/or Kernel support custom boot animations.

IDK why it wouldn't. Its CM9. It supports theme chooser. I've had another bootanimation on there since i've got the ROM. So IDK. I've looked in a few different places and downloaded quite a few of the same animation to the same effect. Checked the permissions and they were set right in the program. I'm fixing permissions in TWRP now. I'll repost after it finishes.
Still nothing after the permission fix. Hmmm.

I manually copy them in TWRP. Some installers don't work right. I think they don't mount system, just try and copy it to and without it being mounted properly, it won't work.
If you have an installer for a boot animation, open the zip and get the bootanimation.zip file and put it on your SD card. Otherwise, just the boot animation there.
Now you use TWRP recover option, or ES file explorer.
With ES File Explorer, you have to goto setting, make sure root options are on and mount system is enabled to allow writing to the system folder.
With TWRP, go to mount and make sure "unmount system" is checked. This means its mounted.
In TWRP, go to advanced, file manager, in ES file explorer, you're already in a file manager.
If you want to backup your current bootanimation, navigate to system->media folder. Press and hold on the bootanimation.zip to copy it. Navigate to a temp folder on your card and paste it.
Now go to your bootanimation.zip you want to use, press and hold on the file to copy it, navigate back to system->media and paste it. Reboot and you should be good. The main idea is to use some sort of method that will let you write to the system folder and copy the bootanimation.zip to the system->media folder.

Yep -- I've run into installers that don't check the mounts first. Including one I used to use for Hefe Kernel, I have to admit. It is especially troublesome if you "stack" installs and the previous one "helpfully" unmounts /system.
