You have to use the app USB Mass Storage from the Play store....
USB mount
Has been "borked" for the last few builds, but still works in Recovery. Also, there is the FTP upload in File Explorer that once you use you may never want to USB again.
Yeah, that FTP is nice, but for USB, just d/l that app, USB Mass Storage and it works great.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions &

U need to download full rom and extract it from there.... update.zip has nothing to do with bootanimation i suppose.... and it will work on PA.... jst rename it to bootanimation.zip and set permissions...!!!!
Even I was expecting something like bootanimation.zip but instead found the framework-res.apk
Not sure if android 4+ version integrated the boot animation with framework-res.apk file
Can anybody please post the working Jb boot animation on PA please.

How to get Theme Store and other apps that do not come with EU phone version.(Root)

I found a way to get theme store and other apps that come with other region phone versions but you need to have root.This is for EU phone, I do not know if this work on other phones versions .Also I am on Realme ui c28 version .
The apps are installed but hidden, the apps that this give are theme store, google phone, google contacts, google messages and app market. It also unlock call recording . I bet that you can add only several of them but because I can freeze or uninstall them later I did not continue to find a way to do it. I recommend to do this to this after installing stock rom or after doing factory reset as at first I think that it did not work for me, maybe because I tried to install many versions of themes apk.
Instructions
1.You need to download any file explorer that can access system folder, I used root explorer (paid app)
2.You need to go to /system/etc/oppoRegionMarkFeatures and copy com.oppo.regionmark.EUEX.xml and com.oppo.regionmark.RU.xml to internal storage in case that you want to revert this change .
3.Delete com.oppo.regionmark.EUEX.xml on /system/etc/oppoReginMarkFatures and rename com.oppo.regionmark.RU.xml to com.oppo.regionmark.EUEX.xml .
4.You need to go to /system/etc/ and copy the blacklist folder to internal storage in case that you want to revert this change.
5.You need to go to /system/etc/ and delete the folder blacklist .
6.Reboot the phone .
7.you need to go to setting and now you see on the top under search, sign in or something similar, click on it and register an account. Then you can go to setting, then click on "home screen & lock screen magazine", scroll down and you will see "Set Theme ."
8.Now you can select any theme you want and hit apply. The themes that you see is based on the region that you set the phone to, you can select India and reboot the phone and you will see other themes, most of them cost money but if you search free, you will see a free ones . You can also find a guides of how to install a paid themes for more then 5 minutes free trial .
Will the replacement of EUEX with RU create any problems?
I tried your procedure and it worked, but I reverted it waiting for your answer.
By the way, the themes will affect only stock launcher, right? Not the system interface, or am I wrong?

By the way, I forgot to copy the blacklist folder. Can you send me yours, just in case...

I do not think that it will crate any problem, I am on c28 and all work as before, nothing is removed, only added .The EUEX (Europa) has restriction that that Russia does not, It just easier to rename the files and not need to download any other files. Also can you tell me what firmware you are ? I want to confirm if it work on any other firmware other then c28 as I think that they change some files .Here is a link to download the blacklist folder - https://mega.nz/file/EM0lhLgZ#dqHsIf8LlfJmWzvbCTAxwmBAJuoIvL1EYD86p6yuoAg
The Theme can affect the system interface, notification panel but not all do it, most do not.

Hi. I'm on C.28 downloaded from European site.
And thank you for blacklist folder. Now I'll add files again. Except for app manager I'm not interested in the other apps. And of the themes I tried none was interesting.
But your method is amazing. And I can confirm the whole morning I haven't had a single problem.

I do not mind that you translate or share this guide, just do not forgot to write that it work on c28 and this is not tested on other versions. I once tried to do it on c27 and it did not work but I edit some other files before, so maybe it cause the theme store to have problems applying themes.
Hi, this does not work on RUI 2.0 F.14. Do you have another steps to perform so i can unlock the hidden apps?
