I have seen the peeing Android before, but this one got also the smashing Android.

If you want to use it, download the the file (see attachment) and push it to the right folder (in my case: /system/media)

It's working fine on with Ramad's Deodexed JVK+CF Root , fits like a glove, but I guess the kernel you are using have to support it; CF Root 3.0 does it, for the rest ask Ramad.

So I placed the bootanimation.zip in system/media and removed the other 2 files (bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg) so I got a funnier/different boot screen and as extra bonus, 2mb more space in /system

When I have time I will modify it a little by reducing the dimensions of the images and darken them, in order to save battery, specially on those situations when booting takes longer....

P.s.- I found some pretty impressive boot screen animations but the files are huge.

The peeing Android is a small file, quite handy...

. .
​

Well, 7 downloads till now and only 1 thanks....how rude

Anyway, I moved on, been testing other animations and for the moment I am using the Nexus/Win7 bootanimation:

the one I have is moving slower than the example above (even nicer) and tested by me....

How to change the shutdown animation I did copy png files to /media/video/shutdown nothing changed :confused:

I also deleted bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg now the shutdown animation is gone but the png files not played

Errr ..what was that question again?:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] iskandar1994:
I've tried doing this and still the boot animation is the same.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] eternal-intent:
Me too. I've tried putting it in the system/media and also the data/local and it still doesn't work... D'oh!!! :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] gogoasha2001:
Apart from a faster shutodown/reboot - why would anyone want to remove/modify the shutdown animation? From what i gather it's tricky and can break your ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] greglord:
? this is not true. who told you that?

its fairly easy to change it- if you have a compatible kernel that supports bootanimation.zip.

supercurio's voodoo and Fugu's kernel arent compatible with bootanimation.zip yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Also just to point out. It doesn't speed up startup or shutdown. And also you cannot break your ROM. If you flash a bad startup animation it just goes back to stock or shows a black screen. No risk at all.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwirked:
Ok I'm going to try and make this as short and succinct as possible.

I really dislike the SenseUI messaging app, contacts, calcualtor etc etc. but right now the best, most stable ROMS with kernel goodies seem to be the the ones with SenseUI still in place. I am unning Das_Bamf 1.3 w/ included 1.2GHz OC and I REALLY like it. Phone is wicked fast etc etc. Just don't like Sense, worst is the text messaging

Here what I did:

Downloaded the latest 2.2 CyanogenMod ROM for the MyTouch 4g. Reached inside it (too system/app) and extracted the Mms.apk, Calculator.apk, Contacts.apk, and Calender.apk. I then dumped these on the root of my SD card.

Using Root Explorer went into system/app, located Mms.apk and renamed it to Mms.apk.htc then navigated to SD card, grabbed the AOSP Mms.apk and dropped it in system/app and installed it via Root Explorer.

I did this for the the Mms, calculator, and calender.

the Mms.apk installed no problem. after a reboot I also got the calculator and calender to install.

THE ISSUES:

The contacts wouldn't install no matter how I renamed it or how many times I rebooted (tried renaming the AOSP apk to HtcContacts.apk)

The calculator works great, NO ISSUES

The Calender works great but there is a weird red "squiggle" graphic the lays over the first week of the month no matter what?? I'll try and grab a Screencap if that would be helpful. went back to the SenseUI calender until that gets figured that out.

The Mms.apk installed perfect on the first shot. issue is with the black background not displaying correctly. To fix this I went "menu-->Settings and unchecked "black background" then "back" back" to homescreen then reopen messaging app. this turns everything back t a white background and it looks great. Issue is if you restart the phone or manually force stop messages when you reopen it it returns to the black background!? I have redone the permissions to match the original apk and then reinstalled it in hopes that that would fix it. It didn't. Any guidance?
[Epic 4G General] epicblows:
Here are my ideas for the new rom that is due for today.

It should be

Gingerbread 2.4

Use less memory

Have carrier iq in it

Have better battery life

Close all security holes so rooting will not be possible which mr no more needs for security programs like norton

[Epic 4G General] epicblows:
No this is not a joke. Another thread said their is a new rom due today which means we get it in about 20 days as the ec05 was given to me on the 25th which is 20 days after ec05 was done.

I also want honeycomb and ice cream sandwhich and am loving the google overlords are clamping down on the device makers as the only thibg that should be different are the look of the phone like how evo 4g looks different from a sprint epic 4g. Otherwise then all should be the same including hardware. Also once google updates specs like nexus to nexus s then no more updates for the old hardware like microsoft does. Also then all old hardware would need to be returned to google for recycling and then we would lease a new model that gives the google way of life. Google users sould also be even more of a cult then apple is.

[Omnia 7 General] pigo1973:
Hi,

I just got myself a Omnia 7 and since I live in area where 3G signal is very low, phone constantly searching for 3G and also keep switching from 3G to 2G.

Needless to say that kills battery life and also have influence on drop calls and call quality.

Anyway, I don't need 3G when I'm at home. I use wireless for internet and mail.

Funny thing, Omnia 7 doesn't have 3G switch like some other WP7 phones. :mad:

Is there any other solution to switch off 3G??

I tried MarketPlace and didn't found nothing!

Any registry tweak or something??

Maybe firmware with that option.
[Omnia 7 General] Leon*:
Hey,

If you go into settings->mobile network and scroll down you can turn off 3g with the slider :)
[Omnia 7 General] pigo1973:
Geee... If only that exist on Omnia 7.

There is no such switch.

I tried Samsung tools

That does show switch for 3G, but still does nothing.... 3G is still on.

Before posting new posts, search for old ones. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=915813

Yes, there is. I own an Omnia 7 myself & the switch is there as I said!
[Omnia 7 General] VonCrisp:
Some ROMs have the switch enabled by default (i.e. the t-mobile ones) some others do not.

What you have mentioned is interesting. If the switch is not working for you then please mention your concerns in the "Samsungs Tools" post and the creator might be able to fix the issue.

This would also help other people in the future!

An alternative way to switch on 2g is to follow the method Niiceg suggested.

[Defy Android Development] ToTTenTranz:
Greetings,

I just bought and legally unlocked a Motorola Defy from Spain, and the carrier was Vodafone.

Checking the ROM in it, it says the following:

System version:

Blur_Version.2.51.1.MB525VF360Blur.Vodafone.en.ES

While the build number says:

JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1

So it's a 2.51.

What exactly does this mean?

I've searched the forum up and down and I still don't quite get it.

The only info I got was:

And I don't understand what this means. What's version 2 and 3? What's CG31 and CG39?

There's no official 2.2 Froyo update for my phone, and AFAIK there's no news saying when that may happen.

I don't want Blur (I want to be able to use stock Android widgets), and I don't want the Vodafone or any other operator's stuff.

I know there's no stock ROM without those things so I'll have to do with a modded ROM (I'm very compelled to getting this one).

I'd also like to have the oportunity to reflash the phone to its stock ROM, in case I need to send it to warranty.

I flashed my girlfriend's Milestone with the latest UK official ROM through RSD Lite (after the phone bricked when I used the official update procedure!), and it was a rather simple procedure.

So given that I have one of those "bad" 2.51 ROMs, what additional procedures do I need to make, besides the sbf flashing through RSD Lite?
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
don't worry mate.. i have 2.51 too.

where to start it..

um.. maybe this.

CMIIW.

SBF is just like RAR and ZIP, it is packaging file.

inside SBF there many files, two of those are CG31.SMG & CG39.SMG.

some newer release SBF (froyo) might have EARLIER "version" of CG31.SMG and CG39.SMG

than CG31.SMG and CG39.SMG on your phone (2.51).

which mean it can't be done to flash it (flash to earlier version).

as long as you not flashing CG31.SMG and CG39.SMG when you apply froyo (leaked or official) update. it's fine..

i think someone here (fritolays) found method to FIX the SBF to exclude CG31.SMG and CG39.SMG. name of that SBF is FIXED SBF.

so if you want to upgrade to froyo, do not flash FULL SBF.

but use clockwork recovery to wipe data and wipe cache, then apply the nandroid backup, then flash the FIXED SBF using RSD Lite 4.9.

----------------------------------------

my advice before you doing anything,

do a factory reset, get root, install custom recovery,

then just create a nandroid backup of your stock 2.51 with custom recovery,

and make sure you have a FULL SBF of 2.51 of your region, and you have FIXED SBF 2.51 of your region.

so if you want to go back to eclair stock:

-install custom recovery, go to custom recovery, wipe data and wipe cache,

-apply restore nandroid backup of your stock

-flash the FIXED SBF 2.51 of your region.

-----------------------------------------
[Defy Android Development] ToTTenTranz:
Ok, I now have a nice brick, for the moment.

After rooting, installing the clockwork mod and backing up my original ROM, I flashed a "fixed" SBF from the 3.4.3-11 version.

After the flash, the phone just hangs in the motorola symbol on and off (by about 2 minutes).

I tried both this SBF:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12596803&postcount=845

and this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12357943&postcount=62

Both give me the same result: Motorola logo on and off, and no boot.

The bootloader is still accessible.

RSD Lite says to power up the phone manually, but it does so by itself.

Is there some hidden ritual that I don't know of? (like unplugging the USB at a certain time or pressing some buttons?)

Any suggestions?

I've seen this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12620475&postcount=7

But I don't even know if it's a fixed ROM or not.. should I try it?
[Defy Android Development] ToTTenTranz:
Tried the following ROM with the same result:

3.4.2_155-Fixed.CEE_DEBLUR.sbf

I'm starting to get a bit preocupied here.

Help?
[Defy Android Development] Dewman4life:
Try restoring a nandroid backup first, then right when you reboot go into stock recovery and flash the fixed sbf for that nandroid backup you installed and it should work fine. It sounds like you may have flashed a fixed sbf before you installed a nandroid backup. Hope this helps.
[Defy Android Development] ToTTenTranz:
How can I restore the nandroid I did previously?

The clockwork restore boot has been uninstalled, and the restore boot I have right now only has "wipe data", "wipe cache" and "apply update.zip"..
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
As far I know, you can't enter custom recovery from a boot loop. I don't know if this is correct, but the only way i see to you is flash the full SBF of your stock rom, that you can find here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=966537

Tons of JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1, choose that best fits your phone and go. Next time, BEFORE flashing the fixed SBF, restore nandroid.
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
oh damn..

you just bricked your phone right...

the steps are wrong... the steps are:

root>install custom recovery>apply nandroid backup of froyo>reboot but immediately go to bootloader>flash fixed sbf of froyo.

you have to restore nandroid backup of froyo 3.4.3-11 first before you flash the fixed SBF of 3.4.3-11.

from your explanation,

you create backup of your 2.51 then flash the fixed sbf of 3.4.3-11?

if it is true, the ROM is still eclair 2.51 and you install the 3.4.3-11 firmware,

i think that's the problem.

you should restore nandroid backup of froyo 3.4.3-11 first before you flash the fixed sbf of 3.4.3-11.

after that, you follow what pays thread says to do to install his rom.

just because your defy cannot be started,

what you can do now is just flash your phone back to eclair 2.51 first with full SBF, not fixed.

the condition now is you have FIXED firmware of 3.4.3-11, but with 2.51 ROM inside.

just because it is fixed, you still have a chance going back to eclair 2.51

search Full SBF Eclair 2.51 of your region, and flash it with RSD Lite.

hope and make sure your battery is full enough to flash the full SBF, maybe 60-80% is enough.

because with that condition, i think the battery is not charging, even you charge it.

after everything is back to normal (eclair 2.51)

then if you still want to use pays, follow this method

-root

-install custom recovery, reboot to custom recovery

-restore nandroid backup of froyo 3.4.3-11 (if you can't find it pm me)

-immediately flash fixed sbf of froyo 3.4.3-11

-now your phone should froyo 3.4.3-11

-install pays rom with custom recovery
[Defy Android Development] ToTTenTranz:
I flashed this sbf and I now have a working phone with a 3.4.2-155 firmware. Phew...

So I should have "restored the nandroid backup of 3.4.3-11" while still having the 2.51 firmware and only then I should have flashed the fixed firmware?

Sorry, this is really confusing for me.

With this 3.4.2-155 firmware, can I still do that procedure to get the pays rom?
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
oh no...

you flash the FULL SBF of 3.4.2-155??

you should flash FULL SBF of 2.51...

i think you lost your downgradeability now... :(

but you still can use pays,

just follow like pays thread says.

just because you lost your downgradeability,

you shouldn't even care to flash the full SBF 3.4.3-11 now..

(you don't have to use any nandroid backup now to upgrade to newer build)

yea, you should do that... :(

while still having 2.51 firmware,

you should restore the nandroid backup of 3.4.3-11 first,

and then you flash the fixed sbf of 3.4.3-11.
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
Now you are +1 that can't go back to 2.1 \o/ (like me kkkk)

If you have flashed the full SBF from 2.51.1 you could still have a chance.

And yes, you can go to any ROM that is 2.2 now, test Pays, LiquidArc and BluelessGinger from JBoogie3 and Barebones from Fritolays(my favourite). Don't worry about nandroid backups anymore, just do the full SBF when you install a new ROM (it's what I do).
[Defy Android Development] ToTTenTranz:
But as soon as the Spanish Vodafone release a Froyo ROM, I should be able to flash to that and still get the warranty if I need to, right?

Truth be told, I would never want to go back to 2.1, except for warranty procedures.
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
The problem is that, only if you can find a SBF from Vodafone ES you will have your warranty. And this is just a possibility, since this SBF was not released yet. Good luck for you (and for me, since I'm in the same situation, heheheh)
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
as long as the official spanish vodafone SBF have the latest version of CG31.SMG and CG39.SMG inside (newer than CG31.SMG and CG39.SMG inside 3.4.3-11), it should be fine..

otherwise there's workaround though.

if just in case the CG31 and CG39 are in lower version,

you should restore nandroid of official froyo spanish (when it released)

then you flash the fixed sbf of that release.

i am sorry for your lost...

but you can still go back to 2.51 though..

but not in proper "real eclair 2.51"

i will post this method if you ask.
[Defy Android Development] Dewman4life:
Helps to read all the threads on the process as there are many. Now the problem lies your on froyo and can't get back to eclair if you need to send it in for repair. The main thing tho is your back up and running.

I just bought this new phone 14days ago. I got my number transferred from a prepaid to a new simcard. Everything was good until they actually ported my number to the new simcard. After that i have NO internet at all.

I have a 3G icon and can call/sms but as i try open the browser it says. The page cannot be find. Also when i turn my phone off and on it says after i dialed my pincode: Error cant apply settings to modem.

My provider is T-mobile here from the netherlands, they had some interference at the beginning at the week, but i spoke with them today and they can see everything should work. I tried to make a new APN with the guidance from T-mobile but it dosent help. Also rebooted it 4 times from fabric settings, still nothing.

Can say that i havent done anything with the phone, its not hacked/rooted or whatever. Basically in same shape as when i bought it.

I read another tread that also descripes the problem i have but these phones are rooted, and didnt really get any solution out of it.

Yea you would think that, they told me in the store today that was not the case. Funny thing is i tryed to switch it again into another devince, and still nothing. However, as I went into the store i got a new simcard that didnt fix the prob. Suspecting some internal flaw? :confused:

Anyway, gonna call LG and use my vip change possibility so we'll see if its the device itself or not.
