[HOW TO] Install bootanimation without root explorer!!!

Hello guys i am new here and i really want to share this with you. Because i see everbody is using root explorer to replace bootanimation.zip set the permissions to install bootanimation. Here is the short way to install it.
Firstly, go market and install "Rom Toolbox".
Then in the app,go scripter and press menu button and choose "download scripts"
From opened menu, choose "install bootanimation"
Then,script will be installed after this put the bootanimation.zip into external_sd or modify the script change the direction and put it there.Finally run the script, reboot
IT'S DONE...

Yea of course. You must be rooted.
But be carefull that this installs the bootanimation to the /data/local/bootanimation.zip
And you can change it to the
/system/media

I´m root and I use ES Explorer.
Just download the boot-animation you want and replace it in system/media/
Maybe you´d like to backup up your old boot-animation

But i think it is long way because i usually change my bootanimation and believe me replacement is a bit boring because you must change permission and sometimes you must creat link to bootanimation.zip if you use sanim.zip. it is really long. But using rom toolbox method you will download the script just one time and thats all. You can also back up your script. Of course it is your choice and you are free to do what you want.

"News Wall" Live Wallpaper from SGS3 !!!

Hi to all,
this is a very nice live wallpaper from Galaxy S3 that shows news for your country with fantastic effects; simply push these files into system/app folder with root explorer or similar and change permissions to rw r r

Agree. Related the same to a user on the 7.7 forum. Factory reset can allow one to change to another language but have never heard of a situation where more than one language could be used on a single install. Would be interesting though...

It is possible to change the device language without resetting the device!
Check the attached images.
If you want to change to a language that does not exist in the Language settings, then that's a different story.
I hope I understood your questing right.

[MOD] Samsung Stock Chinese Input Method Note 2, Note 1, S III

For those interested in transporting/installing the stock sammy Jelly Bean traditional chinese input method from the note 2, here are the instructions:
1) extract the following files from any Hong Kong rom: (you can get it from sammobile.com)
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME_HKTW_Phone.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so
2) copy the files to their respective locations on your rooted note 2, set permissions rw-r--r--, and reboot
This comes in handy when trying out roms without T-Chinese input
here is a public dropbox link I have included for those who want it (** SLOW...no funds for hosting **)
enjoy
Edit: well it looks like I hit the limit with dropbox and got banned so no more link. if you still want the files PM me and i can email them to you. otherwise just extract them from the roms from sammobile.com
Additionally, here are the files needed for the S III and Note 1 phones:
S3 ICS
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME_HKTW_Phone.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so
/system/lib/libhsvtest.so
/system/lib/libgdhwr2.so
/system/lib/libDioSpeechTTS-jni.so
/system/lib/libDioDict3HangulCore.so
/system/lib/libDioDict3EngineNative.so
Note 1 GB/ICS
GB:
- /system/app/diopenchineseIME.apk
- /system/lib/libdhwrcn.so
- /system/lib/libdwpcn.so
- /system/lib/libhangulcore.so
- /system/lib/libkeyboardcn.so
ICS:
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so
Remember to set permissions after copying the files back to your phone

Thanks man
But just a hint dropbox hasnt proven itself to be very good for xda-hosting. Big download traffic causes Dropbox to ban you
Wait a second i'll make you a dropbox mirror too sp that load is shared 50-50
EDIT: here's the link CHEERS!

Why bother, just go to settings language click on samsung keyboard and just download the input method.

The standard samsungIME included with non chinese roms does not have the T-Chinese and Handwritten chinese input methods. You need to have the samsungChineseIME apk for these languages.

Does it work in Quick Command? I'm on Wanam's rom and flashed his patch and got the same Chinese IME, works everywhere else except in Quick Command, Original keyboard stays there instead of the ChineseIME as in HK ROM.

im on the UK LJ1 rom and its working in Quick Command

i never try to put a file in system folder before.
can someone teach me how to move the file to system/app ? (rooted phone)
i use es explorer . it say . cant be copy..
i try to change system... read. write .execute. .. "permission failed "

make sure your note 2 is rooted. without root you will not be able to make these changes.
here are some links for rooting your phone:

can i ask if u have the stock samsung keyboard with chinese hardwriting support?

Hey thanks for the mod. I pushed the 2 files into their respective folders and rebooted the phone but couldn't find the new input method.. any suggestions?
Edit: it appears on the input setting after a second reboot but its FC'ing when I clicked on it=(

make sure to set permissions on both the library file and the apk file.
permissions should be:
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME_HKTW_Phone.apk rw-r--r--
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so rw-r--r--

Cheers mate. Works great now after changing the permissions.

Finally I can flash custom rom. It's works great on Omega ROM, but QuickCommand doesn't support T-Chinese input. Any idea how to add back ZH(HK) in QuickCommand? Tks in advance.

I haven't tried omega rom yet but I'm running the stock uk LJ1 and, using this method, T-Chinese handwriting is working for me in quick command
edit: my mistake. I was reading quick command but thinking multi screen. quick command does not support Chinese input.

Not a really good solution but works for me. Download the HK CSC image and flash via Odin. Then you can switch ZH(HK) in quick command function but the disadvantage is some of the bloatwares will restore from the CSC file. Remember to do a full wipe after flash the CSC image.

basically yes. but you will have to use the chinese IME from an HK GB or ICS rom respective of your rom. Below are the files you will need:
GB:
- /system/app/diopenchineseIME.apk
- /system/lib/libdhwrcn.so
- /system/lib/libdwpcn.so
- /system/lib/libhangulcore.so
- /system/lib/libkeyboardcn.so
ICS:
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so
and remember to set the permissions.

hi guys
Can be used in the S3 ??

Thanks. I am going to try this on my note with Crash Rom.
Edit:
It works in Note 1!
But IMO it's not as good as the original HK IME in Note 1. Can't swap between Handwriting, Chinese Keyboard AND English Keyboard on the go without going into settings.
Do you have the HK IME in latest note 1 Rom?
Sorry, too lazy to download and extract. Just drop me a link in case you have the files at hand.
Anyway thanks!

For those of you that haven't seen the font, it can be seen here - http://www.ffonts.net/Sony-Sketch-EF.font
Look awesome on the phone.
This tricks the phone to think its stock fonts.
Instructions.
Go to settings / display / font style/ and change your font to Samsung Sans
Place zip on SD card and flash through CWM
Reboot
Switch font back to default
Done.

I couldn't get it to work at all. Went back into settings and it has the font there but says it's unavailable. Not rooted so that maybe the cause. Thanks anyway.
PS: Downloaded iFont from the playstore (it's free) and installed Sony Fetch using this and it worked perfectly. Hope that helps.

You can flash through stock, vol up and front button, then press power, hold til boot screen, let power go and bingo you can flash. Not as many options as CWM.

No way to get the default font back ah? I didnt backup the original font before flash.

I can confirm that there is one more step to make it fully work
After flashing, switch from Samsung Sans to Default.
