Could someone please do me a solid and post their stock boot animation? I'm trying to get my prime ready to accept the JB update and I have apparently deleted it. I checked data/local and system/media and can only find my modified boot animations. Thanks in advance.
 
Grab the stock update zip and rip the boot anim from there. I'm unfortunately afk so I can't do it for you.
 
Not sure i know where to find that or how to do it if i did. Does the stock boot animation go in system/media or data/local?
 
Ok, you should be able to flash the stock update.zip file found here (it's the top file under firmware) move it over, reboot into recovery by turning the prime off, then press and hold volume down and power. Click apply update.zip and you should be good. Beware though because you probably will lose root, and acknowledge that since you have rooted your tablet, neither I nor anyone else are responsible for anything wonky that happens (I know that sounds ominous, I'm fairly sure nothing bad will happen). First though, make sure you have applied one of the custom boot animations (I don't know what happens if you don't have any, it could get bad)

I have checked and says the update is available however I'm getting an error that says "download failed please try again in a few moments" and the Check Now button is greyed out on the check for updates screen. Frustrating as I'm excited to install this update.

Question. If I update do I lose my root?

Usually yes. When just updating, you could use ota rootkeeper, but since this is updating android version as well idk of rootkeeper will work. Try rootkeeper, but assume you will lose root.

Try rebooting and making sure you have a good WiFi connection.

Edit: I'm having this error too

I can't open the file to pull the bootanimation.zip out even using winrar. If someone could just pull theirs so I could download it that would be awesome.
 
Firmware update was pushed out to me, but it failed. I have a rooted Prime. Guess I will stay with what I have since I don't really understand the instructions on "preparing" the Prime for an update.
