This is my first contribution for XDA!
Usage: Backup original and replace /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Backup original to sdcard (/sdcard/bootanimation.zip.orig)
Replace /system/media/bootanimation.zip with /sdcard/bootanimation.zip
Reboot after replacement
What you need:
Rooted phone (Best way to root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10738467)
Android Terminal Emulator (Market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=jackpal.androidterm)
Custom bootanimation.zip in root of /sdcard
How to use:
Put bootanimation.zip and rebootanim.sh on root of sdcard
Run the script with Terminal Emulator.
Code:
$ su
$ cd /sdcard
$ sh rebootanim.sh
And let it do it's thing and it will reboot after finish

There is another way to change the bootanimation already, but you have to use your PC and you must have xRecovery. I made this script so you need only your phone!

Nice.
Did you know you can copy bootanimation.zip to /data/local/ and it will be used?
No need to backup your original one.

Yes, I know. I do it this way, because I don't want my boot animation to take space on my data partition.
You forgot to mention (for those who don't know) to change the permissions to rwx-r-r.

Same Problem.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
As long as its in $PATH and not in sdcard (no exec permissions) it should work.
What you trying to compile if you dont mind me asking?

tried john the ripper
without how to.
but used same way as. http://www.openwall.com/lists/john-users/2011/07/17/1

Worked fine for me, i just followed instructions in the file INSTALL.
remount system rw
Copy john to /system/xbin
chmod 0755 /system/xbin/john
cd to user directory included in the download.
john...and it worked.
You doing anything different to the above? It *should* be working for you.

[Q] [q]about rebooting my phone

you need is adb and command prompt
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
optional ones
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell chown 0 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell chgrp 0 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Just reflash the rom from recovery!
Without wiping data!
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
well I'm with Amit here. You must have the original ROM's flashable zip file you were currently using?
Simply extract it. Get to PATH_TO_CURRENT_LOCATION\system\framework\framework-res.apk after extracting it. Get the file and push it via adb. Easy as 123.
Reflashing again restores all the system files...? Happened with me... N I use to flash again! Lol Never tried Amits Method

Recovery

Important away from a computer for a few days and was wondering if there's a way to flash CWM recovery without a pc or any previous versions of CWM installed. I had the CWM at some point and now when i boot into recovery i have the stock Samsung recovery and can't flash anything......

I believe you can flash the img from terminal
Yes.
Assuming you're rooted, you should be able to move it to the right partition with a terminal emulator on your phone.

Sorry but im not familiar with using terminal.....could you post the steps i need to take? Thx in advance
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
typically it would go like this
assuming you have the recovery image in the root directory of the sdcard
open the terminal app
$
type 'su'
you should get the # prompt
then
# cd sdcard
# flash_image recovery recovery_image_name
give that a try

Yes and he forgot to mention that we need to set permissions, without setting permissions = no go
Code:
chmod 0777 /system/bin/flash_image
What do you mean by "3. Extract flash_image"?
It is a file, a script, isn't it?

Okay now I understand.
But without settings permissions in /system/bin/, /xbin/, /init.d the system won't run the script, as it hasn't any permissions to run it.
