I have made a custom framework-res.apk that has Android 2.1 "like" animations for the Samsung Behold 2.

You need root to do this and can find out how to root in a different thread.

*NEW* 5/5/10 Animations for Galaxy R10!!

Download: 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download framework-res.apk

Follow Instructions for R8 as they are the same.

Do not use this framework with any other ROM or previous versions of Galaxy.

Tested and fully working in R10!
If your having problems with this build, download Factory anims at: 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download (3)framework-res.apk

*Remove the (3) from the framework file after downloading* :D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Galaxy R8 Version

Download the framework here: 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download (2)framework-res.apk

Rename the file framework-res.apk (removing the 2).

Now move the file to your Android SDK folder/tools folder on your hard drive.

Next, go to your command prompt and type, pressing enter after every line:

cd\
cd (Android SDK folder location)\tools
adb push ./framework-res.apk /system/framework

Now reboot your phone and you should have new animations. :D

I have tested this with BH_MAN's Galaxy 1.6 R8 ROM and everything is working.

*DO NOT USE ON ANY OTHER ROM, it will not work!*

The R8 ROM: http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-behold-2/54769-port-galaxy-1-6-behold-2-a.html

If your having problems with the animations, go to this link to download the factory animations: 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download framework-res.apk

Then follow the steps above to apply.

Finally, be sure to have "Animations" enabled under Settings>Sound and Display>Animation for this to work for you or else you will see no difference.

Thanks!! Enjoy!! :)
