0 bytes ? why ? :/

[SamyO]

I recently made my own animation and everything.. followed all the steps, but one small issue.

everytime i do the "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local" it says "0 bytes in" about like 7 secs. what am i doing wrong? :frown:

When you do adb push are you in the folder your bootanimation.zip is?

 

[SamyO]

yup, in the tools section.. that's why im lost :/

 

[doug piston]

did you cd/ to the tool dir? If you are, I'd recheck the name and make sure it's not a zip.zip

 

[doug piston]

I forgot the blatantly obvious one, did you setup the path correctly?

 

[SamyO]

this is what im getting :/

and yes, i think i set up everything correctly..

 

[SamyO]

I'll even show the two files i created.. the zip & the sound..

FileAve.com - samyo's files

lol! and im really appreciating your help

 

[doug piston]

It looks like it finding the file and trying to push. You do have usb deugging on correct?

 

[SamyO]

yup, and i check stay awake too.. idk what to do

**is there maybe a certain mode (next to debug) that i have to put it in??**

 

[doug piston]

I cant dl'd the files while at work. Lets start at the beginning. Try adb devices and make sure it finds you phone. So in the tool dir type adb devices

 

[SamyO]

yup, seems so

 

[doug piston]

Then the only thing i can think of id the file itself. Turn the file ext on in windows. Sometimes files get named blah.zip.zip Make sure this isnt happening

 

[SamyO]

hmmmm.. i tried :/ nothing

 

[doug piston]

Im out of ideas. This is such a simple process, I am lost on the cause of the problem. Im still suspicious of your file. When i was trying my own it was saved as a zip.zip. Took me forever to figure it out. If this hasnt been resolved by the time i get home ill look into it more.

emm k.. I just downloaded and push your boot animation no problem.. This is interesting to me. I'm gonna assume you tried this mulitple times and it never worked. Maybe reboot the phone and try again. Nice animation though, just not my style. Also heads up it shows up as a white screen only.
