[ACS] [HOW TO] Root, Flash Roms/Kernels/Themes, CWM, and update! (67 videos) 8/7/11

Like my video work?? Add a link to my video thread in your signature

I just kinda thought of this, but I'm going to be making some how to videos for the epic and put them all in one place. Right now I'm planning on making an odin back to stock video, an ec05 update.zip video and a 2.5 and 3.0 root video. I figured it would be helpful to epic owners. If there are any more requests for how to videos just pm me or comment on this thread (treat)!

Thanks to nikon120 for the category idea

As always, comments and suggestions for future videos are always appreciated!

BOLD = a newer video

HUGE thanks to my donors: Vapur (thanks for the continued support!), Johnny Cakes, Steve, Ecooce, Askar, Bjorn Warloe, Clayod, Mcdeeandhisepic (also huge thanks to this guy) and Grogck for donating! I really appreciate it and I appreciate the support. Thanks again everyone!

Glad these have helped.. You guys are very welcome

Maybe how you wiped and installed a ROM in recovery...
That might stop some treats also

I appreciate all the time you put forward to making videos helping to educate us on all sorts of goodies. I am definitely bored with the standard boot animation, unfortunately I do not have a bootanimation.zip anywhere in the specified folder. What I do have are 3 items that would possibly resemble a boot sequence - bootani.qmg, bootsamsung.qmg, and bootsamsungloop.qmg. As for the shutdown it is exactly the way you said it would be. I went ahead and renamed those 3 files with a .bak at the end of them and tried to move the bootanimation.zip into the folder but it gave an error which stated there was not enough room to place the item in the folder. Do I just need to find a ROM that has those 3 qmg files or is there a way around this? Any help would be appreciated..
thanks in advance

Boot animations can only be changed on a rom. You can't change the stock boot up animation.
