[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
Quickpics (might be quickpix, can't remember, and tablet is off right now or I'd check) has been the best app I've found for setting background images. What needs ot be remembered for all image apps is that the wallpaper is NOT centered vertically in landscape mode, which most of us use regularly. SO, when cropping an image, you must put the "center" a bit higher than center...the best way I can illustrate this is that if you are using a completely black background with a red "X" in the middle, when cropping, position the "X" in about the top 1/3rd of the crop box...it will then be "centered" when you view the desktop wallpaper. Quickpics tends to not resize it like other apps do. Similar app is Wallaby (but it's finicky sometimes, depending on the image used.

The reason our "phones" resize and crop the images it to allow for better viewing in portrait mode...simple as that.

Edit 4-3-2011: Request has been fulfilled by kpkimmel. See this thread for his ps1 and Sega boot screens.

preview of ps1 boot screen below.

I saw someone made a boot animation with the PS3 startup screen and it made me really nostalgic for the playstation 1 startup (both bios and os screens). In my opinion, the PS1 startup was the best ever! Can anyone make the PS1 startup below into a boot animation? Preferably with sound? To me the sound is the best part! :)

give this a try, push to your phone, should work, didnt' test it just kinda rushed it...so hopefully you enjoy. Thanks.

Also i uploaded two different ones, they are the same boot animation just tweaked a little bit because some evos boot slower or faster than others..so try one and if it works great, if not, try the other one.

Also included flashable.zip so you can flash from recovery.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MonsterMatt:
So im running CM7 #33 and just tried flashing the third down "PS1_flashable.zip" that didnt work. So I tried just using root explorer and moving the first lnk into the system->media and deleting my other boot animation and that didnt work either :confused: any body can point me in the right direction?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cygnus:
None of these attachments work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] robnelle:
Matt, what part failed? Did you get an error message while flashing? I think if you are doing this manually you have to move both the SPC_animation_final.mp3 sound file and the bootanimation.zip included in the ps1_bootanimation.zip file into /system/customize/resource/. That's where they are on my system and it works fine.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] robnelle:
Odd. I tried both of the flashables and they both worked. AmonRa complained that the zip wasn't signed but I just turned the signature check off and it flashed without a problem.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Kal*El:
Thanks for the files.... brings back the great games that came along with PS
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cygnus:
I was always under the impression that the bootanimation.zip went in,\system\media

I hot it working now, just without sound.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kpkimmel:
the sound should work just fine, not sure if your putting in the /system/media part if the spc_animation_final.mp3 has a different name or not, i'll look it up and get back
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MonsterMatt:
Yea I tried flashing it first and it did give me a weird message appeared but it did say it installed fine. However that didn't work so I tried manually putting it in my System->Media section and that was no go.

I did unzip one of the files and put both the SPC.mp3 file and the boot animation.zip in my System-media and it worked this time only without the sound:(

^

But that could be because im running CM7 and I don't think it can play sounds while booting up, But I could be wrong?

Also it was pretty short loading up and was black screen for the better part of it rebooting any way to get it to repeat or load up slower so it stay's on the scrren longer.

Whew...I do love it though!:D So thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kpkimmel:
to slow the boot seq just go into the bootanimation.zip open the desc.txt and change the 60p to a lower number.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MonsterMatt:

[A7 General] mrpete2u:
Hi, I just got my A7. I got it to connect to my wifi router. WEP etc, but connected fine. Problem is that it disconnects within a minute or 2. I have to go to settings and turn the wifi back on, then back to app to get online or whatever. Sometimes it shuts off before I get back to app and get online again. Tried to download angry birds, but it shut off before finished. The router is a Netgear WNR1000 B/G/N with B/G/N all turned on. It is in the room right under me, about 5 or 6 feet away through the floor. I get wifi on laptop great, even out in the yard or out in the street (in car). Kids and wife laptop use G everywhere in the house with no prob,

Any help? I tried the Elocity hotline, but only open 9-5 M-F. I just got it and it is 7pm on friday night.

Thanks.

64 bit or 128 bit WEP?

I am using 64bit WEP with no issue. But I have heard of people having problems with Android+WEP and I suspect it is a 128 bit key problem.
[A7 General] ytain:
I use my A7 with my router with the WPA2 encryption. Some routers have flaky firmware so I updated my router with ddwrt firmware.

Also sometimes make sure the wireless channel on your router is not crowded by other routers in the proximity. So download the WiFi Analyzer to see which channels are less crowded. When the channel is crowded sometimes I lose the connection due to the interference from other routers.

[A7 General] mrpete2u:
Got it working.

Ok, I fiddled with it for several hours. powered off and back on several times, and after pushing the reset button on the back for the 3rd reset, it just suddenly started to work.

I did get Dexters mod 1.41 installed along with a large # of apps. Wifi is somewhat slow and week, may have to try the antenna swap I saw in another thread.

Thanks for the help.
[A7 General] HooliganIL:
grab a little app from the market called 'Keep WiFi' and put a wifi switch widget on your home screen. This should be a big help. I had the same problem after flashing the new dexter patch, but this app keeps it on I have to throw the switch off and back on after restarting my A7

[HTC Inspire 4G] xr2unitx:
I just tried to use this method on my Inspire today and there was an error when flashing back to the stock AT&T ROM after gaining S-OFF and root. When I try to start up the phone normally, it gets stuck on the HTC screen. When I try to boot into recovery, it just shows a black screen while the LED is green.

Anybody know what I can do to fix my phone?

[HTC Inspire 4G] xr2unitx:
I can't seem to access any sort of recovery or hboot. Holding down both volume buttons and turning the phone on will result in the black screen with green LED. Holding the down volume button and turning the phone on does nothing.

[HTC Inspire 4G] xr2unitx:
Well I was able to get into HBOOT but when I tried to go into recovery, the screen would just turn black.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
You need to get the stock rooted PD98IMG.zip into the root of your sd card. Then go to hboot and let the phone find it. Follow on screen instructions. Note the progress bar will be vertical on upper right. I bet that fixes you up on getting the phone working. Black screen on cwm is a whole nother issue. One that I share. I think I'm going to revert to stock unrooted and then our attn1 hack kit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
There is a solution you can eng s-off, but I would not advise this there is no need to eng s-off your phone.

The simplest way though it may take longer is to, revert to stock and reroot and s-off with the hack kit.

This is a very common problem with the one click. To be honest there is a thread made just like this twice a day.
[HTC Inspire 4G] xr2unitx:
Thanks for all the help everyone. I managed to fix everything on my phone. I just flashed the rooted AT&T stock ROM with HBOOT and then used the one-click ENG S-OFF method to fix the black screen on CWM. Now running CM7 perfectly. I'm glad I no longer have to send it back to AT&T.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Havok S14:
Ok I don't mean to thread jack, I just didn't want to start a new thread for this. I've been running the Coredroid Rom since I first rooted my phone. I have never had any problems with my phone even when trying out other roms. Today I tried installing the new Coredroid 5.0. It all went well as usual except this time on the last step of the setup wizard, it said something like "setup has stopped working unexpectedly and will notify HTC" and only let me press ok to force close.

After that happened all I couldn't even go to my home screen. I then tried restarting my phone but got stuck on the Coredroid rotating logo. Only way out of that was to pull the battery cover. Tried going into recovery mode but the screen would just be black and I would have the orange light flashing. That didn't work so I tried restarting again. Again just got stuck on the spinning logo.....This is where **** gets weird. I began to receive a call while on the logo and that allowed me to answer thus leaving the spinning logo. I still could not go to my home screen. I could only use the drop down notifications menu. I restarted my phone again so I could call myself while on the logo and again it got me unstuck from the logo. Only way to fix every thing was to use the search option and run Rom Manager and recover from my previous back up.

So I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else? I always fallow instructions and hardly ever have any problems but this was just odd. I felt like I had to solve riddles in order to get my phone working again.
[HTC Inspire 4G] SNadler:
See if you can boot to bootloader by means of ADB (adb reboot bootloader). If so reflash the stock rooted rom then reload CWM. You might need to Eng-S off if you have a corrupt file / bootloader? When done reflash CorDroid 5.0 (What I am running by the way)....:D

Ok I got in the boot loop after trying to apply the UI string, here is the way to fix it 100% of the time.

1. power off xoom

2. power on xoom, while at dual core logo press vol down wait a few seconds and press it again doing so will give you option to reboot into recovery

3. press vol up to boot into cwr

4. apply 3.1 update, apply bootfix update (if on wifi), factory reset

5. reboot and it will boot up fine
[Xoom General] drahyrt:
+1 exactly the same here. Except didn't reset as I had already 3.1 installed, but if you haven't definately factory reset. I didn't lose anything except my Google accounts, but adding those quickly resolved everything.

OK, atrix 4g is my first android phone. Got it about a week ago.

I experimented with it a few days then rooted it with superoneclick.

All went just as described in other forum posts regarding this method. Thank you.

Then along came the update to 4.1.57 and guess what?. I applied it, yes, I did...

SO, now my phone is no longer rooted. =(

I figured I would wait for the 4.1.57 update fixes to be circumvented by the wonderful devs here and elsewhere.

Now comes my quandry. I find posts here saying specifically that atrix 4g 4.1.57 is rooted or can be rooted again, but NOT for "Bell" (I assume ATT?) atrix phones.

What is the diff between ATT (Bell?) atrix phones and others?

If I can't root now, will I be able to, possibly later, if I wait for the wonderful devs to do their magic?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Download this file. It is a PC36IMG of Amon Ra V2.3. Place it on the main directory of your sd card, and be sure it's named exactly PC36IMG, in all capitals(it should already be named correctly, you shouldn't need to alter anything). Once it's on your sd card, shut your phone down. Boot to the bootloader, by holding power and volume down simultaneously. Then wait a few seconds, and the bootloader should scan and then ask you to update. Select Volume up to say yes. When it's done, it'll ask you to reboot, choose no, then select recovery from the bootloader menu. You should then boot into Amon Ra V2.3.

Actually, ROM Manager lists it as 2.2.1 (which never existed), but if you find and look in the manifest file, it actually downloads 2.3, then flashes it.

The download was completed and it requested for installation. I click install and it did something and rebooted the phone. Since then the phone just stuck at M logo and I did some hard reset (power + x --> recovery utility --> wipe data/factory reset) - no luck and still can't bypass the M logo.

With these kernels I was getting 2-10 mbs download and 1-4 mbs upload speeds. I flashed back the stock kernel, same thing. I then, however, unrooted and re rooted and I am again getting my original speeds. This happen to anyone else or is it just VZW throttling?
