Make a backup of current bootanimation of you wanna change.
boot faster
any ideas how to make the phone boot faster? First time I switched it on, I thought it was broken. Stupid loading. Any way to delete stupid logo booting etc.? Just boot ASAP?
the first boot is always slow, then eventually is OK.
Can you also remove bootanimation from CM v12?
Thanks!

I haven't been here on XDA for a year and you quoted me yesterday =)
Just be sure that you have read/write permissions set in RootExplorer, paste bootanimation.zip and set permissions to rw-r--r--.
Reboot and enjoy your new bootscreen

Mark your bootanimation.zip by touching it for a second or two.
Then you should get a three dot menu in root explorer, press it.
Find permissions and enter.
Check boxes
First row (owner) read - write
Second row (group) read
Third row (others) read
Press "OK"
Baam, you're done
excuse, today i saw some great apps that have to be installed in system/app, but the root explorer doesnt let me do this, then i saw the tutorial said that i need to change the permission but how to change?
thx a lot!
Did you mount system as read/write

ok, since you pushed it to system/app, there is no need to install the apk, just reboot your phone

Do you mean the set permissions check boxes? Then long press the pasted app and select permissions. Then select the desired permissions (generally user-rw, group-r, other-r, for system apps). Then just reboot the phone.

No need to buy an app.
ES File Explorer has options to browse as root and to mount /system as rw.

Down in its settings you will find two options: one to browse as root and another to mount the /system to read/write.

Check the options "Root Explorer" and "Mount File System". Then click the "Favorites" on the top bar, select "/", navigate to /system/etc/, find gps.conf and delete it.
Thanks

i did reboot opened google maps and it showed exactly where i was. And the problem that bothered me was me keeping gps turned off all the time only to find that it would turn itself on which I do not like. I want to disable it permanently because I don't think its nessecary for basic phone and web service. I dont feel that my movements should be tracked for any reason it's just weird! If I am correct the phone service is done through the wireless connection not gps?
Shouldn't u prefer changing ROM?
Problem solved and closed! The original instructions are correct & results are as originally claimed in first reply to the op. For some reason it didn't delete properly the first time,I fixed this by restoring my backup & re-attempting. THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED
Well I could have helped, but I'm an optimus one user, so I don't know which one is a stable optimus v rom...asking an optimus v user will be better...
Code:
First of all, you like it or dont like it, feel free to ask for changes , but not for ETA.
Don´t post it elsewhere, without permission!
Code:
Your bootanimation is might be in /system/customize/resource
Download the bootanimation
Push it with ADB to /system/customize/resource or use file manager app to copy
# use filemanager for paste©
# set the right permissions (644 rw r r )
I am not responsible for anything, except my own phone
It is an edit of the stock animation, same framerate and resolution
Thanks for your effort!

sorry if noob question but how to set permission? I really want to try this bootanimation.
Thank before
You can set the permissions using a file manager, I´ve tested venom explorer a few seconds ago, but I cannot find the option .
You can try solid explorer ...

On some ROMs (e.g. InsertCoin) you have to rename the two files to 'hTC_bootup_one.zip' and 'hTC_downanimation.zip'. These are the names of the animations in the stock ROM.
Correct
THX for the addition
Just for infos sake,,,,,,,,,
I had to rename mine to "ATT_bootanimation.zip" and "ATT_dow,,,,,,,,
That's what the originals were named.
Thanks for the hard work.
Has anyone got a custom made or downloaded boot animation for their Z3 working? Because I can't get mines to work at all and then when I placed the original bootanimation.zip back, the original boot animation no longer works either.
I use this one! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.liveboot
It's pretty cool! GIve it a shot!

That looks pretty cool. But does it work on your Z3, I'm assuming it does because you said you're using it. But I would more like to use my own that I made myself and I just can't get it to work at all. I know how to make boot animations and how to ZIP them up as Store and what the values in the desc.txt mean. I just don't understand why it won't work. And even after putting back the original bootanimation.zip, I no longer have a boot animation at all.
Idk man :|
Have you tried editing an already existing one?

Yeah I actually edited a copy of the original which has the exact same number or images that I replaced in it even saved them all in the exact same image format. But what's weird is that after I realized that the one I made was no good, I placed the original back. But even after doing that I now don't have a boot animation at all.
So no one knows why custom made boot animations won't work with the Z3? I've made my own custom boot animations for both of my previous Android devices, Xperia PLAY and Xperia Z Ultra and I've never had any issues when doing it.

What do you mean replaced it with the same permissions? Would I need to do that in order to get mines to work and if so how would I do that?

But how do you even know its permissions to begin with, that's what I don't know yet alone give my new bootanimation.zip the same permissions.

You mean just mount /system in RW? Because that's what I originally did to change it. And it didn't work.
EDIT: Nevermind I figured out what you meant by setting permissions to rw-r--r-- and now my boot animation works, thanks!
