Seek the signature below the line

you can always try putting a new bootanim ni root/system/media
named as bootanimation.zip
but better confirm with someone who owns this model before doing this.

I know how to do it, but I don't wanna mess up my fone, thanks tho

Do u wanna change the very beginning boot logo or the boot animation?

Just place the bootanimation.zip file to /system/media
If it stuffs up, ie bootloops or what nots, and you can't remove it with a root explorer etc, then boot your phone up to CWM or the recovery you use and use adb shell (through your PC) to remove the bootanimation.zip file. ie the following commands:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
rm -rf /system/media/bootanimation.zip
exit
adb reboot
Done

like wen I turn my fone on

CM should have its own boot img. That you can change. Other images before it are phone and kernel img, there harder to change.

You have to be rooted to be able to change your boot animation. I have used Es File Explorer to simply paste my desired boot animation to /system/media. Then reboot.

Can you share your knowledge with the rest of us?
How DO you change the boot image? (not boot animation).

You can use something like root explorer to move it to the /system/media folder.
Or if you know how to use adb all you do is "adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media" (without the quotes) make sure the bootanimation.zip is in the same folder as adb.

This didn't work for me. When I rebooted it just went to the android boot animation. I put it in system/media... however I deleted the old one. Did I need to? But when I press it my root explorer can't open it. What gives ?

Change permissions to rw-r--r-- using root explorer..

Even though I'm not running CM10 (yet) I threw this bad boy on there just because it's awesome.

Changing permissions works perfectly. Thanks bro. Just wish it said cyanogenmod "10" instead of just cyanogenmod.

just what i needed. Wonder why CM10 team wont include this

Home button

My home button has become pretty erratic. Sometimes it jumps home, sometimes opens the recent apps, and most of the time, nothing happens. Given the phone is more than 2 years old, that's OK.
Just saw a video of the I9000 dissemble and the author says this is mostly due to rust beneath the home button. Has anybody attempted this for our device? If so, can you guide me?
I know there are apps like Button Savior, but if possible, I would like to salvage the home button.
Thanks in advance....

OK.. Solved. Attempting repair is too risky, at least for a novice like me.
I just added this in the build.prop-
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Got awesome on screen nexus buttons.
Confirmed working on latest cm 11 nightly.
Btw found this on a YouTube video.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

for CM 11 you did it using ROOTEXPLORER or CM file manager?? and is the code correct? coz for me its not working

Used the default cm explorer. Remember to reboot the device after u insert the line. The line is correct, no doubt.

The line is correct but when I go frm CM file manager /system/build.prop and edit the prop file the whole prop file goes blank and there is 0 bytes data file size?? any guess what going on?
---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------
in short if any changes are done to the build.prop file in /system/build.prop the size of the build.prop file becomes 0 bytes and the file is empty.... rebooting phone only ends up in bootloop since the prop file is empty... any suggestions??

Can't imagine what's wrong.. Anyway if you think it's a problem with cm manager, download Jrummy's Root Browser. It's way better for editing build. prop.

I've tried a few methods including rom manager app and no luck, it just tries booting to stock recovery.

Also I am on 4.2.2. Just got phone today and spent a good 2 hours trying before asking for help! Hopefully it's a dumb mistake on my end and is an easy fix
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

The furthest ive gotten is doing it manually in cmd and it says the image file is not a loki image and when it boots recovery its blank black screen. No one has any help for me? Should i try going back to stock recovery first? How do i do that?

So you'll never guess what happened. I woke up next to my phone and it was in cwm! But guess what?! My phone did the OTA on its own while I was asleep and bricked my 2 day old phone! Any help WITHOUT using Linux? I can't even get into recovery anymore because I tried to install another recovery zip to fix it and now there is no recovery

I'm making an appointment with geeksquad (phone came from best buy) and the service rep I talked to said they'd most likely replace it for me. If not, my computer asks me if I want to format the drive (repeatedly when I plug it in with every drive letter of the alphabet) what would happen if I did?
Sent from my P9070 using Tapatalk

Just restore back to stock. There is a lot of info on how to do this on this forum. You don't need the geek squad.
