Samsung Admire: Fixing the video/shutdown folder - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Everyone having a problem with shutting down.
Make sure all files are in the correct folder. If needed unzip files put them on your sd card then put in /system/media/video/shutdown.
The correct permissions are /system/media/video
rwxr-xr-x and /system/media/video/shutdown is rwxr-xr-x. Then in the shuttdown folder all the .png files are rw-r-r
Also all the file names are case sensitive. Make sure everything is lower case.

•Download LennoxPackage.zip from http://www.mediafire.com/?8lv1h2879q925x1 from post # 2370.
• Extract all 3 folders from LennoxPackage.zip to a new folder on your computer
•Then download and replace the Velvet file in the app folder of your new folder with Velvet.apk from post # 2425 link http://www.mediafire.com/?h6itqk1mrr1zjjy
• Move the folder you've created (with 3 subfolders) to your SD Card
• On your phone, in /system/app/, rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk.bak using Root Browser (or something similar)
•In the folder you placed on your SD - you'll need to move everything from the /app/ folder to /system/app/, and set permissions to RW/R/R for each of the 3 .apks
•copy the files from the lib folder on your SD, and paste to system/lib (note, a couple of these already exist. Before copying these files go through /system/lib/ and rename any existing files to include .bak, then copy/paste new files. If you don't do this it will paste them with '- copy' as part of the file name). Change permissions of these New files to rw/r/r
• rename the existing "config" folder in /system/usr/srec/ on your phone to "config.bak", then just paste "config" and "en-US" from the srec folder on your SD to /system/usr/srec/. I also changed permissions on config and en-US to RWX/RX/RX
•Reboot and enjoy.

if you copy the SystemUI.apk form system/app to system/
give permission
-----
r-w-e
r---e
after the permissions are set move SD card. Move it to your computer. Open the apk with WinRAR and drag the res folder out (DONT EXTRACT THE APK)
inside the res folder its more folders. If youre on Arc/S you have to mod in drawable-HDPI (use the original names and try to find the right resolution)
after your done open the SystemUI.apk with WinRAR and delete the res folder. Now move the edited res folder from pc inside the SystemUI.apk, choose ok on WinRAR popup
after thats done too move it to your SD-card. Now on your phone move the new SystemUI.apk to system/
give permissions
r-w--
r----
r----
after the permissions are set move the apk to system/app/
reboot
DONE !!
IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE ! (BOOTLOOP etc.)
THANK ME IF I HELPED !

[Q] DoCoMo Status Bar v4 & Task Switcher/Does this work on ZL?

Has someone already tested this Mod on the Xperia ZL?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202383
Yes it works !!!!!
Yes I installed it, tested it and can confirm it works on the Sony Xperia ZL.
First I rooted the phone using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2186368
Then I download the files to computer then to my SD Card/external storage on smartphone.
Back up all necessary file from system/app such systemui.apk, systemui.odex, taskswitcher.apk, settings.apk and settings.odex files to my sd card/external storage in case it went wrong.
Deleted the systemui.odex and settings.odex files.
Copy on files at a time for example the systemui.apk file to the system folder then changed the permission to rw-r--r-- then delete and move the the systemui.apk file to the system/app folder. I did the same for teh other files as well.
Finally reboot the smartphone and voila it should work.

Thank you for your explanations, because I also have the problem.
I have some questions:
1. I did not use this method to root, which for me is more complicated. Is that my problem may be here?
2. What recovery are you using?
3. can you detail me this because I do not understand:
"Copy on files at a time for example the systemui.apk file to the system folder then changed the permission to rw-r--r-- then delete and move the the systemui.apk file to the system/app folder. I did the same for teh other files as well.
In the topic, asked to remove only two files."
Thank you to you for your help
Compare to other method to rooting I looked this is by far the easiest to root without unlocking the bootloader as well. It only takes a minutes or two.
Sorry I have not used any recovery as of yet apart from android software such as backup pro or backup and restore.
When you downloaded the files from here in Zip or WinRAR format I used I extract the three files systemui.apk, taskswitcher.apk and settings.apk to your computer/laptop then connect up your Xperia ZL to the computer/laptop then copy or move these files to your Xperia ZL on your sd card.
You need to download something like android app like file manager and make sure the settings on file manager is set to root.
Now I used the file manager copy the systemui.apk to the system folder then I press on systemui.apk to press option for permission to change the permission with the with the first column all boxes ticked for read and second column only the top for owner is ticked for write, all other boxes including the third column for execute is left unticked.
Now I move the systemui.apk file to the system/app folder replacing the current systemui.apk. I used the same method for settings.apk and taskswitcher.apk files. Once you done that reboot your smartphone.

*You have to put it to /system/media and the file must be renamed to bootanimation.zip if not.

Can't see xml file copied from system\etc folder

I copied a file named "mixer_paths.xml" to the internal SD card in order to edit it on the computer and save a backup, but for some reason I can't see it when going through the files on the computer.
Why? And how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance!
