cant flash these in recovery
you use can use adb
place the bootanimation.zip on to root of sdcard
open command prompt
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/
reboot phone
or use root explore (android market) as this can write to the system
top of screen, tap the mount button to r/w
then copy/paste bootanimation to /system/customize/resource
it will ask to overwrite the bootanimation select yes
then hightlight new bootanimation select permissions
user needs to be ticked as read and write
group needs to be ticked as read
others also ticked as read
press ok
reboot
these folder locations are for the sense based roms or stock
for cyanogen/aosp just need to place the bootanimation in /data/local/

any chance to get the bootanimation sound file ?

How to reinstall stock application removed in Darky'S

I Have installed on MY I9000 the Darky's 9.2 Extreme edition.
Is there a way to reinstall it?
I would reinstall "write and Go" app.
I Have found the apk but when i try to install it by tap directly on apk file the system respond with "Application not installed"
Can anyone help me?
However, the Darky's 9.2 Extreme edition is fantastic.

go to www.romkitchen.org and select create update.zip select all the apps you want and then generate it and flash it thru CWM easy peasy lemon squeazy will take you less than 5 mins.

Thanks a lot . I have downloaded the generated file but the name is update-AiGIQJ8kLa.zip
I need to rename it in update.zip before flashing?
During the generation of update.zip in the rom kitchen site, if i chose "none" in the boot animation step when i flash remain the current boot animation?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have tryed to install the file generated for the site but i have a problem.
When i install the update vie CWM i read:
Finding update package
opening update pakage
installing update
Then the procedure reamain bloked with the the bar always gray.
I waited 10 minutes then I removed the battery and put back.
The Phone reboot without the new application.
Help me please.
Thanks. Thanks

when you go into recovery mode what does it say ??
does it say something like clockwork mod recovery or does it say something like 'android recovery system <3e>
you need to be on recovery 2e ( clockwork mod) to flash update.zip files.
oh and yes the boot animation will stay intact

I'm in the Clockworkmod Recovery v2.5.1.3 - Voodoo lagfix.
not in 2E. This is the CWM that start automatically when i choose recovery from the reboot pane on the Darky's 9.2 system.
how do I start CWM 2e?
Thanks

Hello I found the solution using adb looking in the forums.
Adb I unmounted and remounted in r/w the partition /system /app.
Then I copied the application from the internal sd to /system/app
I used the following commands ....
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock6 /system
cp sdcard/xxx.apk system/app
chmod 644 system/app/xxx.apk
where xxx is the name of application . In my case WriteandGo
Thanks

[size=+2]Backup your rom and files before you start anything. You have been warned!!!!![/size]
[size=+1]If you have P7500-XWKG9 and rooted you can skip to step 7. Tnx to zaphyr[/size]
1. Download Stock Rom P7500-XWKG9 EUR 3G Only http://www.multiupload.com/SGV6N78YY7 [password: samfirmware.com] (Source http://www.samfirmware.com/)
2. Download ODIN3 V1.85 http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=581913&d=1304094576
3. Extract stock rom somewher on your computer also Odin, run Odin and don't touch anything except PDA where you will select previously extracted stock file.
4. Put Tab in Download mode, connect tab to computer, power off, hold power off and volume - till you see two icons then press volume + and if it ask are you sure pres volume + one more time and you are in download mode then ( order of buttons is _power_ _volume -_ _volume+_ )
5. You should see yellow background on first box of odin and that is good your Tab is ready to flash, then click start on ODIN and wait till it reboot.
6. Now we need to root your Tab, as it is on this topic, so download this and put it on the sdcard, then put your Tab to Recovery mode power off, hold power off and volume - till you see two icons then press volume - ,then volume + and you should go to apply update zip file and you will select this file and when it is done you should reboot your device.
6.1 Download & Install Bussybox installer market link from the market,

7. Download Deodexed system files http://www.multiupload.com/4QZVAVUPW8
8. Extract downloaded file to sdcard so you have done_app and done_frame folders in the root of sdcard.
9. You should have adb installed or get it from the google, run next commands:
Code:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex

It works, perfect ... will install themed files by me later

theme mods for wxkg9 would be nice! specially a darker / black control bar. if someone did mods, share it please!

i have applied the mods from first post including the browser mod and now i get only corrupted 1kb files when i try to download a picture. dolphin browser does the same. what could i do to fix this bug?
edit: false alarm. does it only on one host (postimage.org) which is really often used in the wallpapers thread in the gtab 10.1 themes and apps section.

Merge updated system apps

When a system app is updated seems to store the old version on the systems folder and the new version on the SD card. Is there a way to merge the new version onto the system? Once merged there is only the system version like it was when the ROM first was installed. I thought I did this once before but don't remember how or what I used to do it.

you would need to remove the app from the system partition and then install the newer one in its place, if it wasnt this way when your phone got corrupt by a bad update and you had to do a factory reset then you would be stuck with the same corrupt apk. so unless you absolutely need dont bother, and if you do the easiest way would probably be through root explore or similar file manager.

Titanium pro does it but not worth the $5 or $6. Used to do it for free just not remember the apps name.
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA App

you can always copy the apk over using terminal
put it at the root of your sdcard and type
Code:
su
mount /system -o remount,rw
cp /sdcard/updatedapp.apk /system/app/appyouwanttoreplace.apk
mount /system -o remount,ro
Careful though, you don't want to accidentally brick
Make sure the app works and if it's an important app you might want to do it from recovery because it may be running
in recovery you type the following in console (Amon_RA Recovery):
Code:
mount sdcard
mount system
cp /sdcard/updatedapp.apk /system/app/appyouwanttoreplace.apk
Make sure the app update works though, or else you'll get force closes
also may be a good idea to backup the original app with something like:
Code:
cp /system/app/blah.apk /sdcard/blah.apk.backup
Then if anything and you need to restore do this from recovery console:
Code:
cp /sdcard/blah.apk.backup /system/app/blah.apk
yes i really love console

[HOWTO][CWM][4.2] Synchronizing clockworkmod Directory

Update 11-26-2012
The issue that this procedure was designed to overcome has been resolved in the latest version of CWM (6.0.1.9 or newer). Please view http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1781899 for details and download links. If you do not want to upgrade to the latest CWM the directions below will still work but you should really just update.
Background
Due to the multi-user support capabilities of Android 4.2(+) the clockworkmod directory created by ClockworkMod and used to store downloads and backups is being created in /data/media. Unfortunately this directory is not accessible to individual users and therefore backups created in recovery can not be viewed or modified by ROM Manager and vice versa. ROM Manager will look for the directory /data/media/<user number> (e.g. /data/media/0) to which /sdcard is mounted when you are logged in as the user whose number is <user number> (e.g. 0).
Requirements
ClockworkMod Recovery installed and functioning
ROM Manager
ADB installed on your computer and functioning
Willingness to accept that you are on your own and I am not responsible if you mess something up!
Solution
1. Boot into CWM recovery
2. Attach your Nexus 7 to your computers USB port
3. Open an ADB shell using a console from your computer
Code:
adb shell
4. Confirm that you have a clockworkmod directory at /sdcard/clockworkmod (I am using user number 0 for the rest of this procedure, if you wish to use a different user substitute 0 with your user number)
Code:
cd /data/media/0
ls
4a. If you do not see a clockworkmod directory create one with the command below, otherwise proceed to step 5
Code:
mkdir /data/media/0/clockworkmod
5. See if you have a clockworkmod directory at /data/media
Code:
cd /data/media
ls
5a. If you see a clockworkmod directory type the command below, otherwise proceed to step 6
Code:
mv clockworkmod clockworkmod_bak
6. Create the symbolic link
Code:
ln -s /data/media/0/clockworkmod/ clockworkmod
7. If you already had backups in clockworkmod (now clockworkmod_bak) you can move them to the new folder by executing the following command
Code:
mv clockworkmod_bak/backup/ clockworkmod/
mv clockworkmod_bak/blobs/ clockworkmod/
mv clockworkmod_bak/download/ clockworkmod/
WARNING: I tested a backup from recovery and verified the backup was in ROM Manager, renamed the backup in ROM Manager, and confirmed the backup was renamed in recovery. Due to time constraints I did not restore the backup though I can't imagine why it would fail. As mentioned above do this at your own risk. If you do not have a unix/linux experience I would suggest that you wait for someone with experience to follow these steps (I wrote them after I did the procedure so they haven't been vetted) before you attempt it yourself.

Very helpful, i was wondering what they did to mess up clockwork mod
been trying to undo 4.2 for hours as i dont quite like it

I am on the fence about 4.2 myself and when I couldn't see my 4.1.2 backup I had a panic moment. I have to admit that either 4.2 is growing on me or I am already forgetting how good 4.1.2 was .

Great tutorial. Thanks and have a happy thanksgiving

Is there a way to do this without using adb? I don't know how to get it working.
It looks like you are just moving all the files from one location to another, right? If thats the case can I just move them with a file explorer? Also where are the back-ups from pre 4.2 stored, I thought it was sdcard/clockworkmod/ Can I move the back-ups from there to a data/media/clockworkmod folder?

Please see my update to the original post. Once you update to the latest CWM you can copy any existing backups to the new backup and blobs folders under /data/media/clocworkmod. This is discussed in more detail in the thread I linked to.

Code:
mv clockworkmod_bak/backup/ clockworkmod/
mv clockworkmod_bak/blobs/ clockworkmod/
mv clockworkmod_bak/download/ clockworkmod/
This is me just being nit picky, but this looks better:
Code:
mv clockworkmod_bak/* clockworkmod/
I guess for people not confident in their linux abilities that '*' misplaced could be deadly though...anyway thanks for the simple and great workaround/explanation.

Wiping/ Factory resets (in CWM or TWRP) don't erase this data folder? Are we confident in this?

255|[email protected]:/data/media/clockworkmod # mv backup/ /sdcard/clockworkmod/
failed on 'backup/' - Cross-device link
How are you able to move the directories?

This seriously annoys me. Despite the recent surge of newer android devices not containing any sd card slots for secure file storage away from ROM flashing, everything is now embedded. I have had several accidental internal storage deletions containing backups and roms and no the clockworkmod is even harder to locate and backup conveniently through usb/ftp. Thanks for the tut.

Yeah i am wondering that too.it doesnt feel safe for me that the backups are in the system but not in sdcard.

nexus file locations
On the nexus devices (certainly the 7, which has no external sdcard), the only real mounted portions are cache, system and data. Locations like /sdcard/ /storage/emulated/0 etc. are all fuse mounted from /data/media
Supposedly most of the data portion will survive flashing new ROMs and recoveries, everything except unlocking the boot loader, which wipes data f to meet the android security model.
Doesn't feel very safe, though.

I would use TWRP. I have switched and never looked back. It has quite a few more advanced options that I didn't see with clockworkmod, and overall has be MUCH more reliable.
The clockworkmod recovery issue stated in this thread does not affect TWRP at all.

Thanx for this, it seems to work even for the latest CWM.

ElementalX 2.2

I'm on ARHD 11.0 as well.
Strange, I followed the OP from step 1 to 6. I couldn't get step 7 to work so I just used my root explorer to copy the directory contents across in to the newly created clockworkmod folder, then deleted the clockworkmod.bak directory and all was good.
Tip: copy and paste each cmd from the OP in to your adb commands window......
