For those crying foul, just consider it a NANDROID training excercise. Just like all the "one click root" methods turned into adb training.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] stixx2002:
Amazing- maybe coincidence, but my penis is 6 inches longer after installing this update. Thank you HTC Thunderbolt upgrade! You saved my marriage!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bern612:
That was so f'ing funny. I still installed and am going to rock it all day. And just randomly reboot my phone lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] phoneAphoria:
Totally hilarious!

OK, I'll confess: you got me for about 10 seconds. I was like: "Holy Sh#t!, this is going to be a major news story & gawd help em if Big Red goes ballistic!." I was already picturing some kick-ass fundraising parties for your defense fund, LOL! But I put my calendar in day view last night and I saw it...

Virus? Bwaha, hah, hah. That's just absurd. I'll bet ya anything that the people that are complaining were the ones that got taken in the hardest and they're just being *****y about it. Lighten up suckers!

I almost wish I flashed it. Getting rik rolled by you guys is sort of a perverse honor! Thanks again for a great laugh.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] StephenMilone:
i fell for it, making the date in the topic yesterday kept me thinking it's legit. :p
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lortay78:
50 mbps!!!!!!! Awesome. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Unheard:
Wow what a bunch of whiny *****es we have in this forum. It's a complete transformation from the days of the Eris and code red. I'm guessing the exodus of androidforums brought them all over.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DroidDont:
There's stupid to be had everywhere. Signal-to-noise is so craptastic here that there's been a tacit acknowledgement of the uselessness of he development forums with the introduction of short-secret developer forums.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Syco54645:
ahahaha that was good!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mcwolves32:
Best thing ever. Good work lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] infamousxsniper:
Nice aha I hate Rick Roll... ahaha good joke tho.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bern612:
Danny you lol now I can't get that song out of my head smh
[Thunderbolt Android Development] intangibleDroid:
This was full of win.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Russ36363:
Good thing I read before flashing this at work and blaring that outloud. I'm not sure my boss would like this.

I've still taken the zip anyways, I'm going to have fun dicking around with friends phones now.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] WormDoes:
Nice one! Too bad that di*k cheese had to ruin it for you guys :mad: This is my first April on XDA and I must admit when I saw it this morning I definitely almost flashed it without reading the comments. I figured it's from Jcase it has to be awesome sauce. Haha good stuff :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] egeorgia:
Dude. Freaked me out. My wife worried about me with that boot animation. Pretty hilarious. Thanks for the laugh.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] WormDoes:
I kinda wana see this boot screen, but don't want to flash it here at work. What is it of??
[Thunderbolt Android Development] boingboingbilly:
Hahaha - I think its great, good work guys. You had me, good thing I read the comments.

People need to lighten the eff up.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psufan5:
Ok so this isnt really a patch it just messes up your boot animation? Post should be locked... while funny, it messes with your phone. How do we get this off?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] feedhead:
There Fixed
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Unheard:
Don't fret, I've already called the WAAAAAAAAAHMBulance to come and help you out.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
With the nandroid you made... or maybe by reading the whole thread... or using the search function... or taking the zip apart to find out what it changed... or just don't reboot you phone before tomorrow when jcase will post the revert.

@jcase: This **** is epic :) well played sir
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
Hours before you posted, I noted in the original post what it was.

Maybe you should read things before flashing?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jballz0682:
Excellent job guys!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] superchilpil:
I like our developers on this forum :) they actually have a sense of humor

I nearly flashed this too just to see what it was till I read a little further
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xXJay_RXx:
i wanna try this out! to get rid of it, just do a nandroid right? :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Spectredroid:
Tiger Blood. Winning.

Brilliant. Just Brilliant. Super funny. You guys rock. For anyone who is upset, well...........reading is our friend. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mi7chy:
Maybe coincidental but my speeds have been noticeably faster today that it feels like 5G. Worth putting up with the the new boot animation.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Zalyia38:
This is super! I'm downloading now.

You guys are awesome! I love April Fools!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Fodizzle1978:
Love it! I'm keeping it! You guys rock!

Thrown from my Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jamezelle:
yup just nandroid backup before flashing this, then restore when ur ready to go back
[Thunderbolt Android Development] uthinkisay:
this is great to all of you crying and moaning bout this you need to get over yourselves it was a joke and caused no harm what so ever i personally am flashing now because I wanna rock it as my boot animantion.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nic2112:
I hope someone makes a one-click "unwedge your head from your sphincter" app for you.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cdkg:
Amazing!!! Right now I'm pushing 100mbps using this mod!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Z51:
Hellz yeah!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bernjc3:
Amazing Mod, thanks OP! I'm never gonna give this up, as long as it doesn't let me down...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] shelooga:
hahahahahaha i saw this post and got pissed at verizon. then happy at the op for 'hacking'

then i went to the last page loking for bug/feedback and saw it was a joke before i downloaded or installed. technically you didnt get me, but honestly you did. always read the fine print!

happy april fools you jerkies!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] babybacon:
Honestly i like this boot animation more than the stock thunderbolt one. Imma keep it for awhile.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bernjc3:
Never gonna give it up?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Xer0daze:
Okay... L O ****ing L.... now can you give me a link to the stock boot animation so that I don't have to hide in the parking garage to reboot my phone. Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jamezr:
Your right not a virus but MALWARE....

Quote from Wiki:

Malware, short for malicious software, (sometimes referred to as pestware[1]) is a software designed to harm or secretly access a computer system[2] without the owner's informed consent. The expression is a general term used by computer professionals to mean a variety of forms of hostile, intrusive, or annoying software or program code.

Tricking someone to install something on their phone is not cool...not matter how you slice it. In fact I'll bet if there was any damages to be had you could be held liable.......it doesn't matter if you said "make a backup first" you still lied about the consequences of the actions the person was going to take and lied about the expectations of those actions. You mis represented the facts. It might have been funny (to you) but not too everyone else. what if i let all the air out of your tires on your vehicle? it might seem funny to me to watch you scramble and throw a temper tantrum but it would not be funny to you. What if you had an urgent job interview? Or had to pick up your pregnant wife/girlfriend?

There are always unforeseen consequences to practical jokes.

BTW...I did not flash this...I always read the whole thread before flashing ANYTHING......
[Thunderbolt Android Development] uncjax:
I agree this truly pissed me the **** off

What is funny is distributing "Malware" is against the law in most states. It is a federal offense if distributed across state lines.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mean Bro Greene:
The people *****ing in this thread really need to quit crying, take the joke, and move on. Stop bawing over an awesome rickroll. It's not like he ****ed anything up, its a boot animation. I applaud you, jcase. Well done.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Sweeny Russ:
Well I'm sorry that some of you got your april fools cherry popped. You must realize that the people who develop for our devices are exceedingly intellegent and have urges to give and urges to mess with some of you. Its not like they shanked you in front of your dream girl for f**k's sake. Google "wvga boot animation" and flash a zip file, so not that big of a deal. Do yourselves a favor too; grow a sense of humor. You are now smarter. This might save you some day from blowing your wad before you read the fine print.

P.S. Look at a f**king calendar, put down the doobie, and realize that you are going to get f**ked with on April 1st. Last year my buddies put dog sh** inside my work shoes. I laughed then I uppercutted them in their respecitive taints. Point is its all fun. Don't like it find another forum.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] uncjax:
Yeah this thread should be closed. I dont give a **** if it was a joke. My friend played a "joke" on my cousin and my cousin ended up dead.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Sweeny Russ:
Its a boot animation, if that kills someone, I volunteer to take my own life. Shut up please.

P.S. Sorry about your cousin.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jamezr:
Some of you who defending this type of malware infection should grow up!!!

If I posted a link here to a website that infected your computer with malware so that it would randomly play a song you did not like..you would not think that was funny now would you. There a ton of n00bs who will flash this and be stuck.

Grow up and stop thinking of just yourself!! There are other people in this world beside you and they don't exist for your entertainment.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Sweeny Russ:
This will be my last post on this topic, but I can't help myself from responding here....

Some of you who defending this type of malware infection should grow up!!!

Like you and continue to complain like a little 10 year old *****.

If I posted a link here to a website that infected your computer with malware so that it would randomly play a song you did not like..you would not think that was funny now would you.

It is a boot animation, this is xda, not suck a torrent.

There a ton of n00bs who will flash this and be stuck.

Noobs should not be flashing anything, if they can flash this, they can certainly figure out how to repeat the procedure with a file after googling "boot animation"

Grow up and stop thinking of just yourself!! There are other people in this world beside you and they don't exist for your entertainment.

If you have root on your device it is because these guys obtained it for you. I don't think they think only for themselves. You obviously were not grown up enough to figure it out yourself. You might want to start holding your tongue. Your distaste for this joke is noted.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nic2112:
If you have an important job interview, your phone should be off during the interview anyways. And in all honesty, if your Wife/GF is giving birth and you take the time to flash something on your phone, then there's something really wrong with you and you shouldn't have reproduced to begin with.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Snap Jackel Pop:
If you can't handle the joke, you really should go buy an apple product where you won't have to worry about anyone pranking you.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jamezr:
LOL how old are you anyway?? Name calling and threats?? Grow up! OMG it was NOTED!!!!! I am in for it now!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
I'm guessing everyone in here that is pissed is a boring, predictable, self loathing, poorly endowed peter puffer. Just shut up. It did no harm. Get a f**king life instead of whining on a forum. By far some of the biggest d-bags I have ever come across in my life. Way to take a fun prank and turn it into something personal. Seriously...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Scuk:
agreed. thanks for the sense of humor. nice to know some teams have one. sorry everyone was such a buzz kill. i found a few laughs in it. nice work.

UPDATE: OMGZ!!!! my TB is bricked for life. ANDirc, you guys should have told me that bootanimations ruin devices!!! :p
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Dxun:
This is why I like this site so much. Other sites I have been a member of are so tightly wound. Even though I caught it early due to some people having a poor sense of humor, just thinking about flashing this made me LOL. I hate getting Rick rolled, but It's so damn funny when it happens.

Sent from my Tbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] RafficaX:
even knowing what it does im gonna flash to see the animation. following instruction and your fine. make a backup then flash. OMG thats to hard maybe ill flash without a backup bc i cant read!

maybe by people not reading and getting screwed they will learn to read the op all the way and do as told, not as they feel! would eliminate about a million problems people have bc they dont make backups bc they think a mod will always work and they dont need too but will ***** after.

+1 jcase, funny stuff!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
Wow, such b**chy people. There is no risk to this, considering in order to use this you actually have to take a risk using the root method. (you know, the one we provided, you know the people who complaining had to use as well).

How is this an infection of any kind, are you just ignorant or a troll? How would this get anyone stuck, it does nothing that can brick, cause bootloops etc.

Users can restore via the nandroid they were instructed to create, or they can wait for April Fools to be over with, and use the undo I post, or use andrew's undo, or flash another rom, or hell enjoy the humorous non harmful, non virus, non malware BOOT ANIMATION.

Not malware, not a virus, just ignorant people complaining. I get it, we have people that don't like me/us, and take every chance they have to complain. Thats ok, cause in the end, if they have a phone that can even flash this..they know...

[Thunderbolt Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
hahaha, THAT is Jenga

F*ck all those whining b*tches. There should be a "Stop Using Your Head as a Bloody Rag" button next to the thanks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] infamousxsniper:
You should do a nandroid backup anyways... People like you suck and make the world emo.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] chadstone30:
i was on the lookout for these all day. i wasn't fooled by Gmail Motion or whatever. so proud of myself. i got home and i let my guard down. i saw this and got soooooo excited about 50 mbps. flashed this. started reading the comments. realized i was an april fool before my nandroid backup finished. fail on my part. sad face about not really getting 50mbps.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dustin4863:
Jcase great joke love it thanks

Why the hell Did JDKor have to get a thunderbolt!? I thought we were rid of him...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wildstang83:
Every one wants to cry about an April Fools bootanimation but they'll sit there and flash hacks and roms and all sorts of stuff that didn't originally come on the phone all day.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] krickatthedisco:
you guys got me pretty good, i think im gonna leave this as my boot animation just for teh lulz, and to remind me to read comments on things before flashing lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] NetworkPIMP:
To all the trollz that be *****in'...

Haterz gonna hate...

If you're mad that you got RickRoll'd, then unroot, got back to stock, and STFU you friggin' crybabies...

"wah wah wah... jcase made me change my boot animation... *tear*"

You don't deserve root, and you can go get an iPhone.

It's 4/1, for F's sake... grow a pair, learn to take a joke and have a laugh...

Go outside or somethin' - there's ppl (tho probably not many at this point) who like you `n shiz, and they're tired of you havin' your face in your TBolt all the time.

Jeez...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emarusamun:
just flashed it to see the bootanimation, **** is funny. Haters gonna hate. Ima roll this boot for a while just to see ppls reactions.

Still haven't decided what's funnier, the actual joke, or the whining going on about it.

L-O-F'N-L

Great joke and some people really need a sense of humor and laugh a little.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] johndiblasi:
Real funny. That's great I almost feel off my desk when it booted. Keep up the great work. I have the stock if anyone's interested. Just check out my post on the incredible forums.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jamezelle:
For all of you that got ur panties in a bunch

Why did you not just restore your nandroid backup you made (per directions)?

[HTC Inspire 4G] rawb123456:
I want to replace the stock music app with one from a DHD Rom. The DHD music player doesn't put size resticitions on ringtones and there is an option to trim a song built in.

I tried to replace the .apk with root explorer, changed permissions and all. Music app never installs even when after I replace htcmusic apk with the original htcmusic.apk.

Is this possible?

thanks.
[Desire General] chasabi:
So i have just flashed to the latest Oxygen ROM and when I logged into Android Market loads of apps started auto installing. Cool, this has never happened before. I noticed though that none of the apps were my apps, they were all random. I'm guessing they were associated with the ROM ?

SO I'm thinking this would be awesome if it could do this with all my apps rather than using Titanium Backup and having to click 'Install' and 'Done' 80 times over. Quite annoying when I try out new roms and updates at least 2-3 times a month.

Now I have 2 questions on this. No1) Why when I have restored all my apps using Titanium Backup does the app not show in My Apps on the market?

No2) How can I get the market to backup my apps and auto restore the next time I flash a new ROM?
[Desire General] Capitalism:
It seems kind of random. Some sense roms will autorestore all the apps you ever have downloaded from the market (hd roms i believe).

Your restored apps dont show in the market since you didnt aquire them through that method. If you go to the installed apps menu under android settings you will find them.

I just had my Acer Iconia auto restore, and it used apps that I have currently on my phone.... I had the News360 PHONE app install on my tablet, among other incompatible apps (however News360 did work). Anyone know how to enable/disable this market / apps auto restore?

[Desire General] shaked1:
I do this after flashing a new ROM :

After flashing and rebooting comes the "set up wizard" or something...

When it asks you to put a Google account, skip this part and complete the 'wizard'...

Then, you go to settings-privacy, and untick the 'Automatic restore'.

I'm almost sure it also won't restore the bookmarks and stuff...
[Desire General] Lothaen:
should be to do with the google backup and restore feature i think.

it doesn't happen with me every time though because sometimes google market thinks i have a new phone and it re-registers itself on the market (shows up as an unnamed device)...

HTC took the feature out of Froyo roms for the desire (no idea why) if i remember right it was there in eclair though.

but it was in the DHD Roms with froyo...

hopefully they put it back in for the GB rom.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qsahmed:
Hello guys

I am having various problem with Samsung Vibrant currently running stock froyo 2.2

Problems :(

1. It does not start using the power button. It only starts automatically when I plug in the wall charger or usb cable connected to PC/Laptop.

Before: It used to start using the power button but when i tried to go into recovery mode using the keys combo this problem occured.

2. Whenever I switch off (power off) the phone it restarts automatically. (when connected to wall charger or usb cable connected to PC/Laptop)

Before: It restarts everytime i swtich off even when its not connected to wall charger or usb cable connected to PC/Laptop.

3. When I connect it to PC/Laptop it always shows "USB NOT RECOGNIZED". I tried many diff drivers, diff pcs/laptops, 2 diff cables, diff connection modes in mobile.

It doesnt charge from one cable, so i thought the cable has gone bad and brought a new one. it charges from new one but does not connect and same problem happens.

4. I tried to root the phone using galaxysrooter becoz i cannot it to pc. GalaxySrooter installed succesfully but when i run it, it shows some error (somthing like "XXX you sdcard XXX ?" dont remember the error sorry).

Then I went to recovery mode to root but there is showed the Signing verification error becoz of 3e.

5. Whenever i disconnect it from wall charger or usb cable connected to PC/Laptop the battery charging icon still remains and still shows that it is charging.

6. Its locked on t-mobile (not an issue)

I searched many websites but cannot find a solution.

Can anyone please help me fix these issues ?

Can anyone please tell me how can I root this phone and install custom rom without connecting to PC. I cannot use superoneclick root but no pc connection, cannot root from recovery mode becoz of the Verification signing issue (3e).

please help
