Question [Question]Push bootanimation.zip using Metamorph?

I'm trying to figure out how to push bootanimation.zip to /data/local/ using Metamorph and cannot get it to work. Is it at all possible to push a .zip file using Metamorph.

I know how to create a MM file. Some of you may be familiar with my work, some may not be. So, keep that in mind when replying.


Thanks in advance for any help

Try this:

Put the bootanimation.zip in a dir inside your theme dir. Call it boot for example. Put this in your .thm file:

boot.cpy
/data/local/

It should copy everything in boot/ to /data/local/. Note that it only works if /data/local/ already exists. It won't create directories.

Thats exactly what I tried. It still does not update the already existing bootanimation.zip in the /data/local/. Like drater said, it may be possible that MM cannot handle moving a .zip file, yet.
