Problem on rooting my g1

I followed this tut http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548924 and got up to the installing CyanogenMOD 4.0.1 (Stable) part. The 4th step it asks me to hold alt+I+W+S in the recovery mode. But my g1 download\install right after i pressed alt+I and W there was no need for S somehow or i messed it up...And then as for the 5th part it did not ask me to reboot it reboot by itself automatically and i had to do the google registration part again like i was downgrading. So i want to know if i had rooted and installed the custom rom successfully or i did something wrong.

the quickest way to tell if it worked is to go to terminal emulator and type su if you get a screen that comes up and ask for your permission to run su then you have root and a custom rom. the other way is if your have 5 homescreens

Uhh where is the terminal emulator lol sry im a newbie ;3. And what you mean by 5 home screen?

either check your app tray or download it from the market. do you have 3 home screens, or 5 home screens, or go into settings and look for something like this under about phone

Nope D: don't have the mod version. Theres only kernel version and build number. So i assume i rooting and installing custom rom went unsuccessfully?

what does the kernel version say? most likely though you will need to reflash your rom though. make sure the rom is on the root of your sdcard, if you don't have the 1.4 version of cyanogen's recovery image then rename it to update.zip (if you do not know what recovery you have assume you need to name it to update.zip). then boot into recovery(home and power), select the option to flash update.zip from sdcard (something like that) then when it is finished reboot the phone.

david do you happen to have aim\msn or ym? Hate forum posting D:

[BOOT ANIMATION] Finisher! (Ultimate Kill)

I did not create the original animation. It can be found all over the web and I have no idea who created it. Credit goes to him/her.
This boot animation is based off of this gif:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I added a background layer, removed almost 200 frames (the original was almost 900 frames) optimized the images and made an "ERIS" loop at the end.
.
Note: Sometimes my phone boots up too fast and the animation doesn't make it all the way to the end. Please report how your phone does and I will update accordingly. Enjoy!

That's a badass bootanimation thanks for your work,any way you know how to change the in call screen?

lmao @ this ^ guy

doesn't work on at all on my phone. Evil Eris 3.0 rooted, etc.
I did install it through the recovery menu though. Is there anything specific beyond "Install zip file" that needs to be done?

Yea you don't flash this through recovery. Put it in your tools folder on your pc and "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/"

ah. guess I'll have to wait till I get home from work to try it out then.

Get root explorer in market you can move it from SD card or to data/system/media and paste and it'll ask to overwrite and Say yes. Do easy and fast

Just installed, rebooted phone and runs perfect. No changes that needs to be made that I can see, looks awesome! I keep running adb shell bootanimation just so I can keep watching it. Great job

failing that just to be able to change the bar to a straight one like from sensehero

I think deleting HtcLockScreen.apk form /system/app and rebooting should work. (Or get you something similar)
Could you tell me where you got that screenshot from? It looks really nice

yeh ill try it, then ill need to edit the layout in framework to change that style?
i got it here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735480

look in the hero cdma section themes someone already has for cynageon 6 roms thought it will save you some time also the gsm icons (G,E,H,(3G been done) have not been done

is there a link? im searching atm an not finding anything

1 sec then

Here you go

thanks for that, would i need to pull the lockscreen then flash?
any ideas on what i need to pull from it?

dont flash that pull /system/framework-res.apk then open the file you downloaded with the theme in extract that chose then images you want out of that then open your fw-res.apk open it with 7zip put the images you want in the corect folders closew it then push it back to your phone

thanks for that, i managed to do it but when u hold power to power down the menu list is all messed up, so i just reflashed sensehero an put on the desire lock screen so i still keep the straight bar instead of the curved one
thanks alot for you help with this anyway

Thanks for your response mendozinas, i already done that. If you check my attached zip file,you will notice that no Thumbs.db in folder/part0 and /part1.
Any other suggestions....?

Just downloaded it and there is still a thumbs.db in both folders. I will delete them and re up to you

Here you go, no more thumbs.db. There are instructions online on how to get rid of off of those on you computer.

[BOOT ANIMATION] Ubuntu

A boot animation themed like the newer ubuntu ones.
If anyone has any suggestions for improvement let me know
EDIT: I just realized that i should probably post how to install this...
for CM7 and a couple other roms put it in /system/media/bootanimation.zip
and for the stock rom/sense based it goes at /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
I've read that for sense based it may need to be called VZWbootanimation.zip or something along those lines just replace whatever is there.
permissions need to be set at rw-r--r-- or an upside down L on the left side in root explorer if you don't understand that.

so i cant just Flash it on Clockwork?

this is just the actual boot animation file that goes into the file system... you can just put it there with root explorer or the like.
doesn't get extracted by the way. you just need to rename the zip file

the android text or an actual android?

the txt, it looks similar to yours, but when its says the txt android its has a glaze about it and it goes back on forth.
if u cant tell im having a hard time describing it.

what rom are you running?
I'll mess with it and see if i can't duplicate your results. I tested it on CM7

das bamf 1.6.1 non themed. i put the file into the correct place, replaced it with the old bootaninmation, thats all i did
