I'm also having this problem. I have a Motorola Photon Q (not rooted) running Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean). I'm pretty sure I don't have R-W permissions in /data/local, but I don't know how to achieve that.

EDIT: Unlocked my bootloader, and it works fine now!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Kiwironic:
If you are having problems, or getting the message "Remote Object does not exist" try this for step #4

adb pull /system/media/bootanimation.zip C:\

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/

Edit: This is for some devices such as Moto Devices. Since this thread is one of the best for pushing boot animation using ADB, I thought to mention the location for Moto Devices.

boot animation prob

Hi can you help.... I have inherited a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 which had a tedious O2 bot animation. Tried replacing it with various .zips as described in various places , similar to your instructions, but none ever worked. Seems like there is something missing in the process. The phone is rooted, and running Android Ver 4.4.2. I havent got the original (O2) bootanimation.zip to try and replace, and I have even tried using bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg files in system/media , all to avail. However the weird thing is I have replaced the shutdown.qmg in system/media with another which works OK. Is there some process I have lost, Im thinking something that tells the system to go to the .zip file and use that to play the boot animation. Hope you can help. If not please reply and I will post on the forum. Kind Regards

i have deleted the bootanimation file on root/system/bin/bootanimation

and i have no longer have any boot animation even if i pasted one on system/media/animation.zip theres no effect on boot..

do you have any idea how to get back the deleted bootanimation file on root/system/bin ?

Used X-plore, has splitscreen, went to root/system/media/bootanimation.zip. renamed it in bootanimation.zip.bak and in the second screen searched the new bootanimation.zip and it will copy itself to the mediafile, done! Works like clockwork.:D

When I do:

Would it be safe to just move from that to the next step and push it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Static-Noise:
Yes, I know there are various threads upon the notion of rooting, but this particular issue was not mentioned.

I was browsing and found that you can root various Xperia phones without unlocking the bootloader, and therefore preserving warranty (see http://mytechencounters.wordpress.com/2012/03/17/root-your-xperia-phone-without-voiding-warranty/)- however, at current no exploit was found for this device as far as forums have shown.

Should I take it that we are unable to follow the above method at present, or will we ever be able to do so?

Sorry for the question. I'm not quite a noob, but the Sony setup with bootloaders being unlocked, rooting not invalidating warranty and whatnot awful confusing. I was so more understanding with my old HTC HANDSETS!

Many thanks,

SN.

I'm sorry if I caused confusion (and a slight dispute), but as a newbie with Sony handsets, it's not so straightforward coming from a different brand of mobile.

Maybe a stickie in simple, easy to understand English might be handy for people in a similar position?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INKRO:
Recently, as I was trying to update to the latest version of ICS 4.0.4, I found myself having to manually update to 4.0.3. I'm new to the Android platform and this 9020T Nexus S is my first Android phone, but I did manage to previously manually update to 2.3.6 from the 2.3.4 that was in the phone (apparently me and OTA updates are like oil and water). Unfortunately, I soon found out that I was working on erroneous information, and if I wanted to move to 4.0.4 while in 4.0.3, I would need to root the device, which is something that has been on my to-do list for a while now so I thought it'd be something I'd try.

Unfortunately, I'm finding that with ICS, I'm finding that it's a lot harder to access the bootloader than before. Holding the up volume key while also holding the power button while the phone is off tends to just tend on the phone, not get me to the bootloader interface. That's not to say that getting to the bootloader is impossible, but it seems that about 4 times out of 5 I just end up turning on the phone. I have put the thing inside a cheap case for protection, but I don't think that's the culprit, as the buttons are still clearly accessible. I imagine that the extra overhead from ICS 4.0.3 is perhaps enough that getting to the bootloader is rather difficult somehow now, so to that end, has anyone encountered this problem before? What did you do to try to sort this issue out?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
What kind of case is it? I bought some argyle case from Amazon that made it damn near impossible to access the BL when I needed to. I bought a cheap silicone case and I can use the buttons no problem. I had the official OTA and flashed custom recovery and didn't have any problems rebooting into the bootloader. I would at least try to boot into the BL without the case just to rule it out. Also make sure you hold the volume button down until the screen for the bootloader actually loads up. I've let the button go a few seconds early and just booted up normally.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INKRO:
It's one of those cheap ebay hard cases that I bought online, can't post the link here thanks to anti-spam protections. I doubt that's the culprit though, I can reach the buttons on my Nexus S pretty easily since there are cutouts for the buttons. If all else fails, I'll try to see if I have an easier time with the case removed though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Are you holding the volume key first? This has nothing to do with android, updates, rooting, etc. Maybe your power up key is biting the dust?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INKRO:
I think I'm mainly trying to press both at once, though I have tried pressing the volume first. Will try again to be sure.

As for the power button going, I doubt it, this is a relatively new device that hasn't given me any trouble power button wise before. Will have to try again specifically with that step though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INKRO:
Ok, just tried this again. I didn't get anything conclusive out of it, though I did manage to get to the bootloader screen twice in a row. I think what's going on is that I'm not pressing enough of the (really rather cheap feeling) volume rocker to access the bootloader. Those two times stemmed from me pressing the entire upper half of the rocker rather than just the tip, so maybe it's not quite registering with the phone.

Unfortunately for this experiment, right after this experiment I checked for an update on a whim and it found a 4.0.4 OTA update :eek: . Been waiting to get that done for about a week now, so I'm glad even though my technical abilities have failed in my this case. Will continue to see if I can't get this thing rooted though!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] INKRO:
I'm actually trying to root this thing with one of those one-click root programs. I think I've got the bootloader unlocked but it's giving me a "device not found error", even though I've got the phone rebooted for a while now.

Kinda scared that I'll brick the thing if I disconnect the USB cable connected to it. :o

You are quite lucky there is one in development or else you'd have been flamed.

If you read, this phone is not the galaxy s i9000. Or the vibrant(T959). This is the T959"V". Every phone has its own development. galaxy s doesn't mean galaxy s 4g.

ok so some how my phone is back to defult no mod no rom and no kernel, and not sure if its still rooted..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
check the back of your phone under the battery if it says t959v then you have an SGS4G and the roms on this forum are right for you if it says t959 you have vibrant and you're in the wrong forum.

read the hechoen link and you'll be good.

lastly, flash a stable rom first before cm7 because as in that OP states, you need to know what you're doing. Also make sure you're on GB 2.3.6 if you're not then follow lumin30 guide to get into a custom rom.

P.S. as soon as you do that change OP title to solved. :) thx and good luck.

I'm running CM9 Official Nightly.

I've played around with a fair number of the launchers out there and when I changed to using the nightlies, I decided to go from using the ADW launcher to the more colourful and popular Go Launcher for Tablets.

However, I am just about fed up with it stalling on me. Usually if I am adding a widget, it will report that 'GO Launcher has stopped working'.

I think I'm going to return to the more stable and usable ADW but would be keen to hear if other users have had the same problem.

Apex launcher is pretty nice too. Its lightweight,lets you do in app drawer widgets, and keeps a really stock feel but still has some good customization. Plus its free.
