When i downloaded the gingerblur file and opened it, there was no gingerblur installation.zip file in the package. I don't know any other way to put the rom onto my phone without this. Any help is appreciated.

that file you downloaded IS the installation zip. just put it on your sdcard and flash in CWM

The whole file? Its like 3 seperate folders with different files inside of them.

Look at the post right above your last one. Research is a wonderful thing.
So do you not extract the file and just put the gingerblur.zip onto the sd card?

Can someone tell me how to install them on my vibrant. I don't know where to put the file. It's rooted with Bio v1.2

what do you mean?
What kind of .zip?
is it flashable?
If not, extract it on PC or androidzip on phone, and use the wallpapers?
im not sure what kind of .zip your talking about.
The honeycomb wallpapers were in the forums about a week ago. I have the file on my phone but I don't know how to install. I tried doing it from recovery but it gets stuck on the installation screen.,

Don't do that. Just open the zip on your computer and see if you can pull the images out.

What he said^^^ I just make a folder on my internal sd called backgrounds and put my wallpapers in them.. I think if you long press on a zip file on your sd it will also extract it to a folder called extracted on your phone.
Just unzip and set the image as wallpaper.

I know this is probably not the right place to post this, but I am trying to figure out how to install a boot animation on my vibrant. I have cm7 installed and found a forum that helped but all I get is a black screen or the plain android logo. I used super manager and moved the zip file to /system/media. And set the permissions to what it told me to. When I reboot nothing. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I have become quite savvy with my phone. Thanks.

You didn't exactly say this but, is the file named simply bootanimation.zip? Not talking down but trying to help. Other than that seems good.
The original file was named bootanimation.zip and I found a transformers one that I wanted and it was named bootanimation_transformers.zip. I tried leaving the file name, got the android logo. Renamed it and got a black screen.

search the Vibrant forum on custom boot animations... download a flashable zip boot animation file from one of the great devs on here then swap your images in place of theirs, re-zip it and flash it with CWM... worked for me like a charm!
One question, how do I replace images? Super manager won't let me unzip files. Do I need to use the PC for that or is there a simpler way?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
My vote goes to PC
I used PC for everything as well...
Unzipped and re-zipped with 7zip and modded images with Gimp...
Thanks, I will give that a try when I get home and let you if it worked. Just to maybe clarify. Would I have to unzip both the original file and the new file and replace the new files with the original file and rezip and put back? Cause that is what I am going to try.

***Sorry i meant GTALK not gmail. sorry for the confusion**
anyone have the newest gtalk with Video chat apk?
wanna get it on my buddy phone. And please only apk and not flash file cause he is not rooted.
Thanks fellas
Nothing Really?
Bump.
Just download any room with it in it. Open the room zip and copy the gtalk file, it will be in /system/app you won't be able to install it if he isn't rooted I don't believe. You can give it a shot though.

i have been doing some research and it doesn't look like there's a way to do it without root.
That's why i brought it over to xda, there has to be a way!

How did you get that to write to /system on an unrooted device? Just curious maybe I can learn something, knowing how linda file manager writes to a locked partition would be very helpful.

There is a thread somewhere on xda with the gtalk apk and its associated .so library file. In the morning when I'm on a computer I'll link you too it or upload them.

Thanks guys the other poster said he could do this without root. The OP stated he wanted an apk because he was trying to install on a non rooted device. These methods all require root, I was just curious how somebody was writing to system without root.

You can't use the new gtalk without root because you need its associated files and those files have to be placed in system folders and the only way to read/write system folders is with root. The apk alone won't work. Especially because it needs to placed in /system/app, not /data/app

damn thats a bummer
So guys did everything and downloaded the UOT I created. When trying to install it as a zip I had an issue. When I went to install zip from sd card it showed the UOT file but when I clicked on it, it just opened up in to 4 further folders. The system and meta and all that. So then I went to install zip from internal sd card and it appeared to work however it said status 0 and installation aborted... Whats going on?
Edit: Saw the workaround where you put the binary file in the UOT Zip, did so and now I get the "Bad error."
Everything is good thanks guys
I don't have any experience with UOT kitchen, but I do know update zips. After you placed the binary in the zip, did you resign it? Not doing so may be your problem.
Resign it? Sorry Im not sure what these means, still kind of amateur? Can you explain hah

By default our recovery doesn't check if the zip is signed, so this probably isn't the problem.
Alright. I pm'd the link to my buddy so he could see if the file is okay, so ill let you guys know if its okay.

I'm having the same issue, what did you do to correct it? I've tried the binary and resigning it.
Anyone else know who to get files cooked from the kitchen scripted for Eclipse v.0.1?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
If you do not know what UOT Kitchen is, just google is... its phuckin awesom, you can change anything on your phone from the boot ani to battery icon, black status bar, noto icons, pull down bars ... tons of crap.... just not sure why the scripts wont work.

Does anyone know what scripting I choose in the kitchen for [GB]Eclipse v.01? There is Edify, and Amend...... I've tried them both, but no luck.
It Says At The Kitchen's Website If You Get The "Status 0" Error To Copy The ROMs "update-binary" And Replace Theirs. As The Two Pictures Dictate Where You Can Find The ROMs update-binary To Copy And Replace The Kitchen's. (Your Rom Maybe Different Than Mine. You Need To Find "YourRom'sName.zip")

Yeah thanks guys, sorry I didnt get on to say I fixed it.. But I already installed a new UOT, and Im having another problem! lol. I installed a uot and when I did it just says installing update...and doesnt change.
My ROM does not have an update-binary.....
I have made progress though.. Seems like the battery mod was conflicting with the CRT animation.
I was able to cook a moded black status bar with some tweaks.....
Anyway to remove the "Verizon Wireless" from the stock status bar? it bleeds threw....
Also... have trouble with boot animation..... it will not flash no mater what I try.
Its located in /system/media/bootanimation.zip
the flashable zip from UOT gives an systax error.... can I just manualy delete the old bootain and copy the new one pulled from the UOT Zip?
Can I do this with a root explorer? or do I need to do ADB?
**EDIT** I was able to delete system/media/bootanimation.zip and put the new "Bios Boot" one there... boots up like an old PC... its awesom... now if I can get the status bar overlap fixxed... and icons and battery

Hi there,
Is there any way to extract an app from a stock rom to place it on my phone?
Say, I don't know how I lost my stock Task Manager from GB, the one that closes applications after 2 minutes screen off, so I want to extract it from my friend s phone and install it on mine.
Or does anyone have it?
Thanks!

Download the gingerbread fruitcake. Task manager should be under system/app within the .zip.
I think the "fruitcakes" use .img files.

I know they are flashable zips but inside the zip is .img files which you cannot pull an apk from. You would have to flash it onto your phone and then pull the apk from your phone, whereas, custom roms come in zip folders but they have the system files inside which you can unzip and pull apks from on your computer. That's what I meant.

Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Well, unless someone posts it here for you, you can just download a "Full" Blur rom onto your computer, such as Home Base, Darkside, or Wet Dream (they all have a "Full" version), and just unzip them, copy the apk, put it onto your sd card through your computer and then move into your /system/app folder (if you have a root file manager), set permissions and reboot.
