MPORTANT:
1) you need a rooted device ( don't know how to root core, just google it or follow instructions below)
2) a root explorer (attached here, very good one)
3) if you have cwm things will be easy
4) busy box (download busy box installer and install busy box. And run mount system R/W script)
5) backup of your rom before executing any anything
6) a helathy and peace ful mind
Instructions:
So you have every necessary thing mentioned above let's begin with work
A) For .qmg boot animations
1) download any .qmg extension file from the link
(https://m.app.box.com/view_shared/w...achment.php?attachmentid=2164433&d=1375631419)
2) rename the file to bootsamsung.qmg
3) open root explorer and navigate to System> media and paste the renamed file
4) long press on the file bootsamsung.qmg (if you are using root explorer attached here) select prrmission and set it to -rw-r-r
(For newbie just tick all 3 checkboxes in first coloum and first check box of second column or best way is to see the permission of other file )
5) reboot and enjoy
6) before altering backup your orignal bootsamsung.qmg file
B) to change shut down amimation
1) download .qmg format file
2) rename it to shutdown.qmg
3) open root explorer and navigate to System> media> video> shutdown
4) paste renamed file and set permissions mentioned above
C) changing boot sound
1) select any .mp3 file (preferably small size and it should be for 15 -20 seconds)
2) just rename the file to PowerOn.ogg be careful for capitalization of P and O while renaming
(Renaming is very easy using root explorer)
3) open root explorer and navigate to System > media > audio> ui
4) paste renamed file here and set permissions as mentioned above
D) for .zip boot animation file
1) download bootanimation.zip file (one attached here)
2) paste the file to System > media and paste the file and set right permission
3) download the enable.zip attachment and decompress it you will find a file named bootanimation
4) paste the file to System > bin and set permissions to -rwxr-xr-x (or just see the permissions of file above that and give same permission)
Now your bootanimation.zip file is active and bootsamsung.qmg will stop working
5) backup orignal bootanimation file from system> bin. So that if you want bootsamsung.qmg to work again just paste back orignal file and give right permissions. This will stop bootanimation.zip
E) if you have CWM
Just reboot to revovery, wipe cache, install
enable_custom_bootanimation.zip, mount system and reboot
F) using the root explorer ( it has name file manager)
For making it root explorer just go to settings of file manager. Tick root explorer tick box and give superuser permession and the tick mount system as writable
2) for setting permisdion or renaming just long press on file
3) beaware that you need to sprcify file format in this explorer while rename
For example if you want to rename example.mp3 to song.mp3 rename exactly as song.mp3 just renaming the file to song will mot do.
For changing .mp3 to .ogg just put a .ogg after file name. Example song.mp3 -- rename as song.ogg
4) while pasting files to system override the previous files
G) HOW TO ROOT
1) JUST download framaroot from link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2164433&d=1375631419
2) install framaroot. Open it select install SuperSU
3) select GANDALF press ok and reboot
4) open supersu and update superuser binary if prompted.
This is my first post to xda.
don't flash enable.zip or boitaimation.zip only flashable file is enable_custom_bootanimation.zip

Hi,
today I'm going to show how to create a flashable
zip from a CWM/TWRP Backup. This is specially for MTK
device(you can try in other device,may work). Here is
my step by step tutorial...
Requirements:
* PC
* CWM/TWRP Backup
* Winrar
* Brain
you need META-INF,system & boot.img for making a
flashble zip rom, so you have to collect these from
your backup
*CWM method:
1. Copy the CWM backup from Phone to PC
2. Extract system.ext4.tar file with winrar, you
will get the system folder
3. Collect the boot.img from the backup
4. Now collect a META-INF folder from any custom
rom which is made for your device
5. Now select META-INF,system & boot.img, click
right button of your mouse and select 'Add to archive'
now select archive format 'ZIP' and press ok
6. Your flasable zip rom is ready. Just copy it
to your sd card and flash with CWM or TWRP
7. Done.
TWRP method:
1. Copy the TWRP backup from Phone to PC
2. Collect the file 'system.ext4.win' rename it
to 'system.ext4.tar'
3. Extract the system.ext4.tar. Now in case if your
TWRP backup is not in compression method, you will
directly get the system folder. Or if your TWRP
backup is in compression method, you will get a
file named 'system.ext4', don't worry just again
rename it to 'system.ext4.tar' and extract to get
the 'system' folder
4. Collect the 'boot.emmc.win' file and rename it
to boot.img, now ypu manage the boot.img also
5. Now collect a META-INF folder from any custom
rom which is made for your device
6. Now select META-INF,system & boot.img, click
right button of your mouse and select 'Add to archive'
now select archive format 'ZIP' and press ok
7. Your flasable zip rom is ready. Just copy it

sorry I meant META-INF folder, you use the META-INF from a working rom install for your phone. Look under your phones thread here on XDA and locate a rom and use it to go with your backup files so you can make a install of your backup

Extract to get the system folder:
CYGWIN Unpacking TWRP Backup Files
Download CYGWIN http://cygwin.com/
rename:
data.ext4.win to data.ext4.win.tar
system.ext4.win000 system.ext4.win000.tar
system.ext4.win001 to system.ext4.win001.tar
Make a directory in your CYGWIN Home [Username]folder
Example: untar
Use Windows File Explorer go to your CYGWING Home
C:\cygwin\home\carl (your user name will be here)
make any folder you choose
Example:
C:\cygwin\home\carl\untar
and C:\cygwin\home\carl\untar\data ( for data files)
put your renamed data files in a folder named data
C:\cygwin\home\carl\untar\data (this is to keep files separate when unpacked)
While in Explorer put your renamed system files in untar folder
start CYGWIN ( Use the Cygwin Terminal and then you can copy and paste these commands)
cd to untar folder
example:
cd\untar
do these commands one at a time, it will extract to a folder named system
tar -xvf system.ext4.win000.tar
tar -xvf system.ext4.win001.tar
cd to data
do this command
tar -xvf data.ext4.win.tar
tar -xvf data.ext4.win000.tar
tar -xvf data.ext4.win001.tar
all your data files will extract

This is iBall Slide 7271 HD70 with preloaded KitKat 4.4.2
I lost my nandroid backup of stock network carrier's ROM so my friend made backup using same TWRP recovery and now I want to build flashable zip. He excluded only data and cache.
There are some things that confuses me.
This device (Alcatel OT M' Pop) has custpack.ext4.win. Do I have to include it and how?
This is all files from backup:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also I used Cygwin Terminal to unpack system.ext4.win because 7Zip and WinRar gave me errors during unpacking process but interesting thing is that when I open archive with 7zip I can see META-INF folder Can I use that META and how the hell WinRar doesn't show it? Or is it safer to include META from another ROM for this device?

Replace "gralloc.default.so" and "gralloc.mt6592.so" from "/system/lib/hw" folder
Google Maps Compass & video playback!
How do I fix compass on Google maps? Its arrowhead is stuck on one position and never rotates. Compass/magnetic sensor works on all other apps except for Google maps.
Also
I have issue with video playback. I cannot stream videos from certain apps such as SonyLiv. However hotstar works fine. Also I have green YouTube videos problem on only certain few videos(with certian quality say 360p and/or live videos).

Copy sensors.defaults.so from stock rom. Rename it to sensors.mt6592.so and place it in /system/lib/hw folder.
Also add compass/magnetometer permission xml file from /system/etc/permissions to ported rom.
There is streaming issue in some apps.
Use youtube app given in second post of @fire855 CM 13 thread.
