"and inside you should see (if I rremember correctly) one random folder and a file named bootanimation.zip
If you paste the file from the droid life post in to the system/media folder it should either automatically replace the old one or say something like "a file by that name already exists. Would you like to replace it?" Replace the old file with the stock one and that should be all you have to do."
No folder named bootanimation.zip and no option to replace
It says "you cannot paste here because the file system is read only" when i try to paste it in media
Worth a shot. The only thing that gives me pause is that it doesn't appear there for me but if that's where it shows up that's where you want to replace it.
Oh don't say you'll never play around again. If this proved anything its that you're capable of editing that type of stuff and recovering to stock if you have to. Glad I was able to help you get it fixed.
Lol, I know i'll play around with it again. between rooting yesterday and this today, I'm learning a lot.
Thanks for staying up all this time to help me
