OK. For those who want to enable bootanimation, here is how it's done -

Since bootanimation is disabled in init.rc, we will use samsungloop instead :D

service media /system/bin/mediaserver
user media
group system audio camera graphics inet net_bt net_bt_admin net_raw
ioprio rt 4

#service bootanim /system/bin/bootanimation
# user graphics
# group graphics
# disabled
# oneshot

service samsungloop /system/bin/samsungloop
user graphics
group graphics
disabled
oneshot

1. Using any root explorer app, rename (or delete, just make sure you have a backup) the 'samsungloop' file to located in /system/bin

2. Rename the file 'bootanimation' (also located in /system/bin) to 'samsungloop'

3. Now put the bootanimation.zip of your choice in /system/media folder

Done! Enjoy ;)

I was having trouble with this lately then last night it worked, and it hit me- I had the stock battery in last night. I bought a 3pk of chinese batteries and a wall charger off ebay and whenever I have one of the aftermarket batteries in and i plug it into the computer it gives me some bs message about the battery not being stock and it won't charge it or let me transfer files or anything. So idk if you're running the stock battery but that is one possible cause for that problem. Running midnight4.2.

I'm teaching a person how to root their EVO problem is last time I tried to root an EVO I couldn't get it to root.

My question is what is the easiest way to root this bad boy, he isn't the most tech savvy guy?

I'm pretty sure he was everything updated currently pure stock.

Should he use this http://unrevoked.com/recovery/ and will it automatically root it with no problems?

Thanks!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Yep, Unrevoked is the way to go. For it to work, you need to first install and then uninstall HTC Sync, then install the modified hboot drivers and then run Unrevoked. Should work just fine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RossGoldenstein:
Unrevoked.com is the easiest way I've seen to root the Evo, requiring little technical knowledge (heck, if I can do it...). If you are on a Mac or Linux machine, it literally can't get much easier, but if you are on a PC it is still relatively simple. Just make sure you click "More Info" and follow the tutorial instructions they give you. If you aren't a fan of reading, there are about a million YouTube videos of varying quality that will walk you through the process of rooting your Evo with Unrevoked.

[XPERIA X8 General] Bruno D. Dutra:
Hello there!

I have a Xperia X8 e15a.

I want to change my firmware from 2.0.1.A.0.47 to 2.1.1.A.0.6 and since I can't make question on the development area, the only way I found to get some answers, is asking here.

So, I live in Brazil and I want to use the "[ROM] MiniCM-1.0.0-Beta2 port for x8" on my X8, but I need to change my firmware and baseband.

So, I found this topic, and I have some questions.

If I use the method in the post #4, will it work properly? Can I make a backup of my firmware with xrecovery, so anything goes wrong I can restore my smartphone?

And I found these other topics http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825228 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825228.

Wich code is not operator locked for Brazil?, there's the "REM 33 "E15a Claro BR" that's not my operator, and "REM 112 "E15a Customized BR", should I use the last one?

Can please someone explain me the steps I should make, or point me to a n00b guide to do it properly?

Thanks!
[XPERIA X8 General] alfsamsung:
The method of post #4 vorks good.

You can't take backup of firmware,but system and data.You can't restore data and system from a old firmware to a new one.Maby only data folder restore would work.I use titanium backup to backup all aps just in case.

In minibeta there is no customization code,and i'm not sure how things with operator works there. haven't heard anyone having problems, so just try it.

PS i'm not an expert in android,but i hope i helped some...
[XPERIA X8 General] Bruno D. Dutra:
Thx man, but I'll wait for some more replys before I do it
[XPERIA X8 General] Blagus:
Download firmware from my Mediafire folder. (Customized RU). Flash it with FlashTool. Then download X8a baseband 15, from my Mediafire folder too, and flash it.

Link in my signature.
[XPERIA X8 General] Bruno D. Dutra:
It will work properly right? No bugs, no brick etc?
[XPERIA X8 General] Tobi@s:
I have a question: When I download 2.1.1.A.0.6 from your signature and put the 7z or the extracted files in firmwares folder I can't see them in "Flash" screen... (I have Flashtool v029
[XPERIA X8 General] Blagus:
You have to put *.ftf file in "firmwares" folder of FlashTool.

Yes, it will work properly, no bugs, etc.
[XPERIA X8 General] Tobi@s:
And where to get .ftf for X8?
[XPERIA X8 General] Blagus:
In 7z archive you've downloaded -.-
[XPERIA X8 General] Tobi@s:
I think I don't have eyes... Where's that .ftf??
[XPERIA X8 General] Blagus:
Hmm??? Oops, sorry... you have to make bundle from FlashTools first, and then flash it.
[XPERIA X8 General] Tobi@s:
And how to do that? ^^
[XPERIA X8 General] Bruno D. Dutra:
He's gone...

If you find how, please reply here.
[XPERIA X8 General] Blagus:
Open FlashTool -> Advanced -> Bundle creation. Select folder with extracted 7z archive and add all files to the bundle (click right arrow for every file from left side of window to switch it to the right side list). Then flash.
[XPERIA X8 General] Bruno D. Dutra:
Thx man :D
[XPERIA X8 General] Bruno D. Dutra:
Dude, I used the firmware update to change it, now my smartphone is X8i and not x8a and the 3G, Edge and HSPDA doesn't work.

If I put the baseband 015a into it, i'll the services work properly?
[XPERIA X8 General] Blagus:
That's exactly the reason why I told you to flash X8a baseband :p

Yes, flash X8a baseband 15 and it will work.

I'm using it, and still doesn't work.

I tried VLC Direct, AndTV and VLC Stream & Convert. All of

them allows remote control for VLC player on the server, but recieves

only audio. Video looks like black screen without any errors.

VLC on the server starts via script:

cvlc -I http --sout "#transcode{venc=x264{profile=baseline,level=12,keyint=50,aud,tune=zerolatency},vcodec=h264,acodec=mp4a,vb=208,ab=48,channels=1,width,height=180,audio-sync,soverlay}:standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=nas:8081}"

Why is it that like every single team royal rom is like updated, release candidate or whatever, but every single thread lists all these things that just don't work at all. Like wifi, bluetooth, gps, or CAMERA. I don't know about everyone else, but those are deal breakers....i came from a couple other android phones, and the dev section had way better stuff. Like cm7 is amazing, but there is no quality and variety here. All the variety besides cm7 are all broken roms....just wanted to ask other people if I'm wrong and trying out the wrong shiznit, or if cm7 is really the best way to go.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
Actually they are very high quality and super fast ROM's. The Mytouch 4g has been lacking alot in the dev section and this team is picking up basically all of the slack. The demand is high, so they shoot the ROM's out quickly, and we all know that they are works in progress. They work hard on the ROM's nonstop until they get it perfect. If you don't believe me, check out the Royal Glacier Rom...absolutely amazing. And the thing is, one of their buggy first releases is better most other completed ROM's. Keep up the good work Team Royal!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
And you have every right to demand free stuff out of the painfully long hours that the people at xda put in to give you the variety you deserve.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
If you don't like our roms, or can't live without some of the things that aren't working, there are 2 solutions. 1. Dont use our roms. No one is forcing you too. 2. Help us fix them.

If you didn't realize, I've been doing this whole dev thing for what, 3 weeks? I dont have the experience that some of the devs we had before did, so it may take me a little longer than them to fix things. Im still learning pretty much everything as I go. I apologize I'm not better at this.

I guess people dont realize how much time/effort I put into all of these roms. Or if they do, just dont care and really do have a "me me me/ now now now" attitude.

I worked on mint for days before I released it. All day everyday for the better part of a week. I gave you guys a usable product. For free. The video camera doesn't work, and there are some other bugs. Im still working on them. You know how much that made me? $0. Nada. I don't care either. I wanted Mint for myself. I want to learn. I want to give back to the community. I do it for fun. I do it for those users that will say thanks, and let me know whats wrong constructively so I can try and work it out.

/rant over. Sorry if I offended anyone with this. Its just aggravating to put in so much work for nothing and have people disrespect me for my efforts.

i know my first sounded hateful and rude, but the only reason it sounded assholy to team royal was cuz they are the only devs for this phone atm....its crazy, why is no one else here? its just that this is the first android phone i've owned where no one is devvin for the phone! i havn't used a team royal rom yet, but if i do, I PROMISE i will donate at least 10 bucks. i always donate when i use roms. just wondering why everything in our forums are like ports to mimic other phones.....idk ppl my bad team royal....haha i will donate the day that i use your roms, and ya, mytouch 4g is a great phone.....
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
You should donate. All of their donations go to charity.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
Its not about donations at all. I really just do this for me, and share what I do. We port roms, because we want to give options. Do you want 12 versions of the stock rom? We already have 3. And theres A couple AOSP-esque roms. We wanted more options.

Just please dont take that as a "donate to me" rant. Its not that at all.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaddy-Z.:
I thought this same exact thing. Do not put RC if the ROM has key features not working. CM7 Didn't become an RC until it had most kinks working. But the things not working in the Royal roms are BIG things. But I appreciate the royal team, I don't have room to complain. I don't have the want or need to be a dev and I know how difficult it is to rescript things, but false labels are bad regardless.

i just dont want to miss any vitally important steps and screw this up.. any help? Is there a step by step guide.. thanks much
[Nook Color General] ovar:
I would start here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=872003

After rooting your device you can decide to stay on the stock rom and just have more functionality or you can move to a variety or other roms running Andoid Eclair,Froyo,Gingerbread, or Honeycomb.

Each of these ROM has their own ups and downs. If this is a gift for a non-techy person I would suggest just using a rooted stock with some tweaks or rooting and installing Eclair as these seem to be the most stable options at the moment.

Because the Nooks has priority on SDcard booting you can run any of these roms off the SDcard as well while leaving your stock Nook OS in place. This is a great option if you just want to give a bunch of different ROMs a test. Also the boot priority of the SDcard makes 'bricking' the nook nearly impossible. So while you can still screw up your Nook you will most surely be able to fix it.
[Nook Color General] androidfan1:
Thanks for your help.. I rooted it and left it stock for now.. if he wants something different i will change it to Eclair.. its **Beautiful** I am impressed.. might have to pick one up for myself.. Thanks

I can't believe this bug report hasn't received more stars: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=10590. I noticed this issue back in 1.5 and it continues to be unaddressed now as of 2.3.3. Really simple bug fix too. Please star the issue if you agree!

The current algorithm is something like (time < 24 hours ago) ? (display x hours ago) : (time < 48 hours ago) ? (display yesterday) : (time < 72 hours ago) ? (display 2 days ago) ... Problem is, that's not how we keep track of time!

Yesterday is anything that occurred before the last 12:00am and after the 12:00am before it. 2 days ago is anything that occurred before that 12:00am and after the one before it ... Not hard to implement in code at all.

Hey guys I was meandering through the forum reading up on the root progress, and I read about a member's idea and work on an automated root, I just want to say that from a dedicated member to the inc forum I am disappointed in the flaming and garbage that all you "experienced" devs are throwing at the people who haven't used adb before... Come on guys if you can't be kind why say something, you know? They won't learn if somebody is discouraging them from even trying... So just a thought, be kind because discouragement is not what these forums are about guys.

It has nothing to do with being rude or polite... The root process is very crude at the moment, recovery is not fully functional and You really can't back up if you fubar your phone...

I agree with the OP...it was just the attitude of some of them that was the issue. Very rude and condescending.

BUT that is no reason to denigrate those that want a one click solution down the line when things are solid.:)
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
When the Inc first was rooted, I remember the same types of posts about not knowing adb = shouldn't root.
