[MOD] Boot Animation (CWM NOT REQ'D)

After having spent several days attempting to create a boot animation, I have finally had success. Attached is my first bootanimation of possibly many. First I want to say that all I did for this one was recolor lfaber's bootanimation in his SC_V5 Rom.
If anyone has any requests or ideas, I will be more than happy to create them!
Instructions:
Download attached file (bootanimation_sepia.zip) to SD Card
Using root explorer navigate to the sd card (/mnt/sdcard)
Copy downloaded file to: \system\media
*Optional, to make a backup copy the old one out to the sd card
Delete out the old bootanimation (bootanimation.zip)
Rename bootanimation_sepia.zip to bootanimation.zip
Reboot phone
Watch new pretty colors
If anyone has any problems, please let me know! I can provide a copy of Lfaber's original one if needed.
If anyone would like this as a flashable zip, I could try and do it, but will need tons of help from someone who knows how to do it.

Also, is this the right section for this thread or should I have put it in themes and apps?

ROM Manager is updated and it has a very useful feature there is one thing that's always bothered me about making nandroid backups is having to keep them stored on my phone – and with the limited storage of the devices. Thus, it's not uncommon for me to end up transferring backups to my PC in case I should need them again. Thanks to a new feature implemented into ROM Manager 5.5.0.8, that process just got a lot easier. Download links are in the source link or you can find it in Google Play..
How this new feature works : This new feature enables a download server on your phone that can easily be accessed over Wi-Fi from your PC. Using it couldn't be easier, either – simply jump into the Manage Backups menu, hit the option to Download Backups, and that's basically it. Enter the IP address into the address bar of your favorite browser, and away you go and if you don't have ROM Manager download it from below..

I've tried it 4 times now in 2 weeks and I always get 0 backups found even though I have 5 on the phone in /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup. This is the default storage location for the Nexus 4. It says right in ROM Manager that I should be able to get them from there using the backup download server. Maybe I'm not backing up to the right format? What I mean by that is they are not zip folders but standard backup folders. I tried zipping one and its still not seen so I give up.

[Q] Cant delete files from SD card (jellybean)

I'm cleaning up my phone, PHOTOS only shows photos stored on the phone, it doesn't include photos on the SD card.
So I downloaded the SD card photos via Airdroid FILES and now want to delete them
If I right click on EXTERNAL SD CARD, I'm given the delete option, but if I dive into any subdirectories, all delete options are greyed out whether it's right click on directory or file, or select and click the trash can.
Any ideas? This is a Note 3 running Android 4.3

Would you please attach a screenshot here? Generally, if you right click on EXTERNAL SD CARD, there's no delete option.

Here you go

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

And here you can see no delete option

Has nobody run into this before? I posted the screenshots that were requested. Was kind of expecting a response.

If AirDroid doesn't have the permission to delete files on your external sd card, the delete option will be greyed out. Or would you please give it a try on the phone: AirDroid--->Tools--->Files. Try deleting one photo there just to check if AirDroid has the permission. Thank you in advance

I think you're on to something. Using AirDroid on the phone itself, I attempted to delete a file from the SD card. The delete option was there, it said the delete was successful, but nothing was actually deleted.
What might prevent this from working?

AirDroid does not have the permission to delete files on your SD card

right, we determined that. my question was WHY would it not have permissions? What should I be looking at to fix that problem?

anyone knows how to fix it ?

[Q] Can someone please help me? It's simple

Unfortunately yesterday I broke the display of s2 plus, in the internal memory I had a lot of data, like photos and whastapp backup so now I want to make a backup, (Even if it is broken on the top of the screen you see that for even half a centimeter it works) Someone who has the ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.3.1 can kindly tell me what steps I need to do to make a backup in the external memory because I can not see the options that are under
Simply you tell me what line is backup and then what linea is backup to external sd card
Thanks, sorry for my bad English

Hey XpiroettaBoom !
You Can Get Your Data like Pics & Whatsapp data/backup by Connecting Your Mobile To PC in Internal Memory DCIM Folder is commonly PICS folder Captured by the Camera...
Or You Can Use MOBILedit – PC Suite For All Phones To Get Your Data.....
Or Otherwise This is CWM Method as You Want To Proceed....
Goto your RecoveryMode... IN CWM its good that it works with Hardware buttons...
Below is A Pic of CWM You can Follow the Pic To Judge....
Press 5 times Volume - (down) Button To Go into Backup & restore Option while You are in CWM
One thing I've To confirm If we use External SDcard than We have To Press 6 Times Because "Install Zip From SDcard1" shows up in Menu...

So 1st Option is backup....Now Press Select Button (simply Power Button )it'll Backup your all Internal Memory including Snapshot of ROM....
Hope it'll solve your Problem

Gabb Wireless Z1 Phone (How do I transfer files to it?)

(I have a Gabb Z1 Phone) Is there any way for me to transfer files to it? It has a Micro SD slot, but it doesn't work for some reason. I can take screenshots with it, and I tried connecting it to the computer. If I connect it to the computer, it reads out as a camera.
. If it showed MTP, then I could transfer files, but it doesn't. I also entered it in recovery mode, and connected it to my Windows 10 desktop computer. It didn't show up, so I clicked on "Apply Update from ADB".
When I did that, it showed up as" {serial number} sideload". If there is any way that you can help me, let me know.

It might be the cord you are using.
Also, in your screenshot, it says MTP is not supported.
There are file manager apps in the Playstore that have the ability to transfer files over Wi-Fi.

By posting your questions here in the threads instead of via private message. I prefer helping in the threads instead of PM that way everyone can potentially benefit from answers given.
You can download the file manager app from the web,it will download into your download folder, install the apk from your download folder.

I cannot transfer any kind of files, including apk files.

When I was uploading the OTA in recovery mode, it went all the way to 46 percent, then terminated.
Also can you send me the link for public threads?
