Change Bootanimation - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

How do I change the bootanimation on my ace? I've downloaded a whole bunch from around the forums now I don't know how to change mine. I saw a post about just drag and drop to data/local but I can't find that folder. Does that mean I can make it?
I hope its not as complex as I've seen around. (Mounting through adb and putting in a whole bunch of codes)

i will advice you to atleast search GOOGLE for something rather than asking all the questions in way different threads.... you can search little and get answers

Funny thing is I DID search which is why I'm asking here. Did you not read what I posted? Or you just read the question at the beginning?

i read whole thing.. but there are to many users here and all users starts asking same questions all over again.... thats why i was just advising you to search forum..
if it doesn't help try out ultimate google as you can always find answers yourself..
trying out creating local folder will not brick ur ace try it out

PM DG like it says in the thread. next time read the instructions in the thread that you download things from please.
First, don't panic. Unless you have gone and done a bunch of stuff to try and "fix" it on your own, there is almost certainly hope.
Also, you may want to go hang out in the IRC room for a bit.
Atrix IRC Room filled with smart XDA folks
Someone will probably be able to help you there if DG isn't available by PM.
And while you are at it, take some notes as to what went wrong, and the instrutions the guys in the IRC gave you to fix it... then add them as a reply to this thread. That way when someone else pulls the same boner, they can search, find your issue, and use the instructions you were given, and save themselves some stress.

[Q] How to set livewallpaper auto enabled on fresh flash of ROM?

Hello web masters and developers,
I've got a noob question...
I've got Jusada's ICSunday Final ROM (all credits to Jusada, and of course I've got his permission to do moding), which I modified for my personal needs.
Until now I've added many options that missed in original release (so it's not barebone anymore) like live wallpapers, torch, RE, ScanMedia, battery drain fix and GPS fix, transparent status bar and modified Acheps CM theme (all credits to their developers, u can find the topics here in Ace forum) etc.
There is couple of things I currently cannot resolve and that drives me crazy.
When I make a fresh install of the ROM, it starts with default wallpaper (which I modified too). But since I often use my favorite livewallpaper, i really need it to be set by default from the system. Now, I've got Livewallpaperspicker.apk installed and working. I can put the livewallpaper's apk file in the /system/app and to be installed by default, but how to make it enabled by default instead of the static default_wallpaper.jpeg inside framework_res.apk?
Where in which file I should enable it bu default?
Thank you for your patience, and also excuse me for my bad english, and If I break the rules with this thread!
Regards!
P.S: Excuse me for the stupid thread title, I couldn't figure out a better one...
Obviously no one knows, or it's too difficult to explain for noobs like me... Sad... I search on Google but either I don't search with correct keyword or there are no such thread/topic/lesson...

Here is all the info you need, figure out yourself
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13649923&postcount=2
The line should be without the space (glitch in XDA forums LOL) in com.android.wallpaper
<string name="default_wallpaper_component">com.android.wallpaper/.nexus.NexusWallpaper</string>
not the one u see in the post

Thanks for the reply mate, but it seems that there is no "value" folder inside my /res folder. Anyway I searched for strings.xml inside other folders in /res folder but... no success... I'll extract the ROM's package right now and will search inside all folders for strings.xml and will see if such a file exist... Thanks btn pressed for the reply and for the idea
P.S: I've found the file that contains keyword "default_wallpaper_component" in it. It's framework.odex. Now I've got to figure out first how to edit it (with notepad++ there are a bunch of unusable characters) and what exactly to write to enable my favorite_livewallpaper.apk by default. Because it's gonna be normal, pre-installed .apk file (not inside the LiveWallpapers.apk) and I don't know how to call it inside the string... Damned, this is gonna be harder than I thought But... I like to be hard, if there are good people that wont mind to teach me or tip me for the answer)) Thanks

I didn't say that I'm modder. I'm modding only Jusada's ICSunday ROM, and only for my personal use... anyhow, thanks for the tips, and replies. No offence, but... sometimes noobs want's to learn too, u know... keep it in mind.

As I said before, I need just an advise on how to do-that. I don't need someone to "serve it in golden plate" All I needed was a little hint and you gave it to me, that's why I thanked you. And as I said before, I searched Google and xda but with no success - obviously I didn't know how to "ask", wrong keyword etc.
After your hint I remembered that I read somewhere that not all folders are visible with win rar (for example) and they need to be decompiled in a special way. I searched again and found APKTool, now I'll install it (inside Windows folder, i read) and will begin to learn how-to.
That's the way to learn I think?

Firstly, This is a development forum. This topic does not belong here.
Second, use common sense, topic titles are supposed to be descriptive of topic. Putting silly things like "help needed", "help please" etc etc does not help anybody browsing forum.

Well I dont give a sh1t what YOU "want".
And yes I do keep creating the same message, that is because people keep posting questions and general topics in dev sections. I will continue to inform the people who do this until they stop or XDA intervenes and ups the post count restriction to something realistic or completely restricts posting rights to dev user groups. And FYI I was helping, if the OP posts in correct place and in correct way they would get better replies.
@ OP
Wasn't personal, Its just that if you post in right section and with a accurate descriptive title you are more likely to get a quicker and more relevant response(s) instead of ones like mine or from the "prophet" dude.
Also posting your email address on a public forum is a very bad idea. Not just because of general people seeing it but because of bots that crawl places like this for email addresses for spam/malware purposes.
Sorry to have a word here, but TheATHEiST IS right. I registered some days ago and i had to watch a video telling me that i am a noob and should keep my mouth shut until i really know what i can, should and must say. I try to follow that rule. This forum is really straight over the usual users mind - a forum from developers to developers/experienced users. It really makes me kind of sick to see ppl spamming the whole day their questions (especially into new threads) like in a ****ing AOL newsgroup. Here is no place for this. [/sorry off]
To the thread starter: I damaged my phone 2 days after i got it (around 2 weeks ago). But usually you can just flash and try again. Next time make a backup before - there are tons of possibilities. And read a lot here before acting. That really helps.
So flash again (as suggested already) and follow the steps given.

[REQUEST] Samsung Tablet Internet Apk installable on Prime

Can anyone here give me an Internet brewer of Samsung tablet rom that is installable on Prime? Please modify it to work on the Prime. I already tried to extract the file from the Rom.zip and install on the Prime but no luck.
Thank you for reading
You need to learn to use the search button friend.
Happy searching!
You may be unfamiliar with samsung, they use modified frameworks, most of their apps including the browser are integrated into touchwiz. You can't simply copy the application and paste it into the prime, it just wont function properly.
There is a thread about this already, i know because i posted it. Try searching for it and you might get more information.
Hi there!
Please give me the link direct to what thread you talked about. I searched but I see nothing.
