You do not need to being using a custom ROM or a deodexed ROM to use this. You don't flash it, either. Extract the .zip archive and then follow the instructions I put in the upload post.

If you have an deodexed version of the apk, then do "adb install namehere.apk".

Hi, thank you for your answer, I don't have adb installed, is it possible any other way?
There are other ways, but I recommend using adb. If you do any type of android modding you should learn how to use adb and be familiar with it.

I have pushed a custom bootanimation.zip (Android Scribbler one) to both /data/local and /system/media, but the animation of the boot that I'm getting is still HTC's default.
Can somebody tell me what I did wrong? Or is it just not possible to change the bootanimation for the stock Wildfire ROM?
I have attached the custom bootanimation that I'm trying to use if that helps to identify the problem.
Thanks in advance.
unless you root your wildfire, im pretty sure your very limited to what you can do, unless it is in the form of an app, and even then i dont think bootscreens are possible on the stock rom!!!
I got it working. Apparently the real bootanimation.zip that you need to replace is stored in system/customize/resource
how did you replace the original bootanimation.zip ? i'm trying to replace it using AndExplorer and it won't let me ... my device is rooted with unrevoked ...

use adb and push the bootanimation.zip (which must be in the tools folder which is inside your android-sdk folder) to /system/customize/resource, /data/local, /system/media, i think you only need to push it to the first one, but i did all 3 just in case

I got it to work. Either use bootanimation.zip and push it via adb or go into recovery and use my update.zip.
Update.zip also removes the bootsound

Nope, the update.zip does not work for me. I tried replacing it with the root explorer but all it does is reset the phone after I'm done copying it. I use WilpuzzleROM 0.7 and the boot animation is in 2 locations; /system/customize/resource and /data/local. Whether i push the zip file via adb to /system/customize/resource or use the update.zip it does not matter, the boot animation is still the same. It looks like the one from /data/local overwrites the one in /system/customize/resource. It worked only after i issued the command adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local.

Ok, for custom roms like yours, you have to find the correct location. otherwise my update.zip works for "standard" location.

Hello,
It can't change the original cyanogen bootanimation
I have HTC wildfire with Cyanogen7 (2.3.7)
I reboot it with recovery and install update.zip (from mcpat), and initially copied to sdcard.
no changes
sincerely,
For cm7 put animation zip in data/local change permissions of zip to read write reboot and enjoy hope this helps.

The Showcase is the Cellular South version of Fascinate and is very similar in structure to the Mesmerize. While it has been determined that the Mesmerize files work for the Showcase kernel and Clockworkmod, I was able to get jt1134 to compile the same files from a dump of my showcase. Attached is the kernel for clockworkmod as well as instructions for getting it installed. redbend_ua and zimage are located in the kernel_update folder of zip file.
You will also need to be rooted and have the sdk installed to use adb.
You will need to install redbend_ua first extract the zip file then;
Code:
adb push path/to/redbend_ua /sdcard/redbend_ua
then you need to make it executable
Code:
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /sdcard/redbend_ua
Now you need to move it to the /system/xbin
Code:
adb shell
su
mv /sdcard/redbend_ua /system/xbin/redbend_ua
Take the zImage file and push it to the sd card.
Code:
adb push path/to/zImage /sdcard/zImage
Finally we need to flash the zImage
Code:
redbend_ua restore /sdcard/zImage /dev/block/bml8
Now you can download clockworkmod from market and install the fascinate version of recovery. When you get done you can then flash the attached zip and it will replace your stock phone kernel with the modded one giving access to bln and some other stuff.
Big thanks to jt1134 for taking the time to answer my questions and compile the kernel zip for my phone. Also props to thescorpion420 who I borrowed the installations steps from, since he already had it so well layed out in the mesmerize post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850898
Thanks for the writeup! And thanks for the help, got this going on my Showcase a couple of days ago... very nice to have the ability to make backups!
Hey, sorry, I'm having some odd trouble with this and I was wondering if someone could help. When I attempt to push the file, I'm getting a "permission denied" error. Any idea how to fix this?
I had similar troubles when I did it... I used Root Explorer to move the files into the proper locations, and Terminal Emulator to run the commands.
Hey. Is the zImage the zip file attached to the first post? Sorry, I'm learning. Managed to get to the last couple of steps!

Well Root Explorer solved my issue. For some reason xbin had RO rights.. I flashed the Recovery now I'm installing ROM Manager to do a back up..

Essentially, you would download Terminal Emulator from the Android Market and run the commands in the terminal. Note that the files should be copied to your /sdcard/ first!
A little more info, since you're running it from the phone (and not adb shell) your first command will be: su. PM me if you need more help!
I'm trying to get one of these keyboards http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754948 on my TB. I'm getting that lovely script error when trying to install it via CWR. Anyone know if this is possible? I'm really not liking the stock keyboard on the TB, its not large enough.
Its a scripting issue....the new CWR doesn't allow the old updater script...I have been looking all over the place for a solution and keep coming up empty...if you find one, let me know and I'll do the same!
This probably should have been in general. Just use adb or root explorer instead since those use the old script.

You don't install zips through adb....you "push" the necessary files to the phone, the zip is just an automated way to do it. Everyone with a rooted phone should have some common knowledge of adb commands....there are some great tutorials out there...I'm no genius in adb but I dabble. Good luck!

For those of you who don't know exactly what the CRT animation is, it is the animation that Gingerbread uses when you press the power button and the screen gives a neat power off effect.
Well I wanted this. A lot. So I went out and did it. Just enabled it, and it looks gorgeous on my phone.
Please note, that you must be rooted in order to use this, and on Gingerbread.
It is a straightforward process.
PLEASE NOTE THIS REQUIRES ADB AND JAVA TO BE INSTALLED
A good idea to nandroid before this, as if something goes wrong it can screw up a lot of things.
Installation 1:
Download DX2-CRT-Animation.zip
Copy to sdcard
Flash in CWR
BIG THANKS TO p3droid FOR PACKAGING AS A ZIP
Installation 2 (the complicated, make you feel cooler, hardcore, original way):
This is modifying your framework-res so some themes may not work any longer.
Instructions:
[]Have phone plugged into computer, and in Charge Mode.
[]Download DX2-CRT-Animation.apk
[]Open Command Prompt (or Terminal) window in DX2-CRT-Animation.apk's location. (This can be accomplished by shift clicking on the folder where this resides, and clicking open command prompt here).
[]Push files onto the phone
Code:
adb push DX2-CRT-Animation.apk /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
[]Get shell access
Code:
adb shell
su
---When you enter this, make sure your phone is awake, as a Super User access allow/deny will pop up. Allow it.
In command prompt, you should now have a #.
[]Remove and copy files to proper location, reboot
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
stop
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
cp /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
rm /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
reboot
Whats next:
-Reverse CRT animation (hopefully!!!)
Any input is appreciated.
I am new to this. Give me your input, and help me get better.
Works great! Thanks!
I think everything is working as it should with crt animation working.
Directions worked well, I just had to change how I got into adb.
Great job.
This is awesome, however I'm a little confused. I'm no beginner by any means, but this looks to be outside the realm of what I've done.
When I go into the terminal, am I doing this from my computer? Or my phone (via Terminal Emulator)?
Here is what I'm thinking, and please tell me if I'm wrong:
Download apk
Enter terminal emulator
Type in all of your commands
Voila?
Sorry for all the newbness on this, but I'm dying for some CRT.
Thanks man!
Nevermind, I'm a fail.
I'm downloading the Android and Java SDK now.
I downloaded the necessary files. I can't get the first part to work.
"Open Command Prompt (or Terminal) window in DX2-CRT Animation.apk's location.
Can you explain this step more? I tried right-clicking...
People set up there adb differently. Important thing is to copy file to the directory of where your adb tools are. In my case its
/sdk/platform-tools
Hope this helps

Couldn't get it to work. Even had the IT guy from my work try to get it going. We couldn't get the terminal to find swt.jar
Is it possible for me to do this through root explorer, all through my phone? Change permissions and push it into the correct folder?
That would be awesome.
I am out of town but when I get back I will try to package a zip to flash.
Are you on linux?
If I can elaborate for you here:
When you download the apk, copy it to your documents folder. The use the cd command to change the directory to your documents folder. This is assuming you have your path files set up correctly. Hope this helps!

Well, I tried both download links in the original post and each time it would successfully boot up but no CRT animation. I finally got it figured out as I have the X2 spare parts installed and had to turn off fancy input animations and now it works. Thanks for posting this.
EDIT: I take that back. I had to put the speed of transition animations to normal and can have fancy input animations enabled. For some reason this won't work when "fast" is checked.

So I was bored at work and did something stupid. Now I'm wondering if there is some way to fix it without having to flash my entire phone.
Is there someway a single file can be deleted using a CWM update zip. The file is the ported version of google now and having installed it using root explorer it is stopping my phone from booting entirely.
The file is "system/app/velvet.apk".
If anyone is experienced at CWM and knows how this can be achieved then I would be extremely grateful.
SOLUTION: Flashed a stock nandroid backup of the system, managing not to lose my data.

I would imagine you could use adb to delete the file. Install the Android SDK on your computer and use adb shell to delete the offending file from bootloader mode. Havent tried it before myself, but I believe that's what adb is for amongst other things?
p.s. You should post this in Q&A forum and you might get a better response. This is not dev related.

Velvet.apk isn't that the voice reg. From jellybean,that shouldn't stop your phone from booting.the app would only FC.
Adb or reflash as suggested above
Tell someone to make it cwm flashable. Boot to recovery and flash. Make a new thread or ask for this a mod to rename it.
Something like this " make velvet.apk cwm flashable".
