I'm at a loss on how to change the bootanimation.

I've got the T-Mobile UK Froyo Rom with some apps removed via BloatFreezer. I'm rooted and S-Off.

Using Root Explorer, I've managed to get rid of the T-Mobile animation by deleting

TMD_bootanimation.zip

TMU_bootanimation.zip

Startup_480x800_20fps.gif

from /system/customize/resource. I now get the blue Android text which ripples.

I've tried copying various bootanimation.zip files to /system/customize/recourse and /data/local I've checked that all persmissions are as they should be. I've tried a combination of renaming files by adding the TMD_ or TMU_, but still nothing!

I'm at a loss, does anyone know if it's possible to change the bootanimation on the T-Mob UK Froyo ROM?

I'd prefer to do it via the Root Explorer method. All though I think of myself as technically minded, and managed to root and s-off first time without incidence, I'd prefer keeping flashing to a minimum.

Thanks.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholasbgr:
I used to get at least 15 hours of battery life with my Nexus S under heavy use of 3g and music playback and plug it on the charger only when going to bed with at least 15% of battery left. Now I have to charge it twice on a single day. My use didn't change since I bought it and looking at the battery report there's nothing wrong with any app consumption. Right now it's been two hours since I unplugged it and i'm down to 70% already. You guys have any advice? Battery calibration? Full wipe?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
Nexus one users on 2.3.3 have some weird battery drain issues. I was skeptical so I loaded it up, did my battery tests. The first few hours of idle use showed 4mA of current draw. Then without touching the phone, current went up to 180mA and stayed there for hours. I lost 50% battery. Seems some bug stops the phone from sleeping correctly. Maybe that's your issue. I didn't believe it till I saw it for myself.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dplate07:
Uh?!

I have read about people commenting about better battery life on 2.3.3 update

So which is which ? confused :confused:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJTaurus:
Same here...the first month with 2.3.3 the battery life was better than 2.3.2 but the last weeks it drains like hell...even in airplane mode without using it...i loose around 15-20% during the night.....
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Si_NZ:
I've had this happened to me a few times since CM7 RC2. Last time I experienced it was using RC4. Whenever it happens, I see gpsd quite high up in the battery usage breakdown. If I look into the history, for an hour or so, the current went up as high as ~50mA.

This doesn't happen a lot, and I've been trying to find out what triggered it. So far my first suspect is Google Maps, because it never exits cleanly. I have to force stop it every time, or else it keeps on consuming battery every now and then. Note that I was not signed into Latitude, so that is not to be blamed.

For a month or so, I've went as far as freezing Google Maps using Titanium Backup Pro, and it seemed to help. But I do know some people went even further to move the gpsd binary out of the bin folder.

If you have unusual battery drain again, check whether Google Maps/gpsd used up the battery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrycycle:
@si_NZ. Can you provide more information on the moving gpsd from bin folder.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maltloaf:
I've been doing some research about this. The maps app was showing up as a large user of battery on my NS, so I used Bloat Freezer (from the Market) to freeze the maps application so that it would not run, but running "adb logcat" I could see that something was still calling for it to open, and failing, every minute.

I had already selected that Latitude should not auto update my location but it wasn't until I opened Latitude and selected to sign out of the service altogether that the system stopped calling the maps app. I then unfroze Maps it and it hasn't been called since and doesn't appear in the running services list, unless I specifically open it.

I've gone from using around 20% of battery overnight to around 8%

hope this helps someone..

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DKYang:
Not every phone is the same. ;)

I've been on RC4 and haven't had horrible life. It could easily be on standby for 2 days with some background syncing, phone calls, and text messages. The phone does last me about 5-6 hours when I keep using it like browsing, games, and etc. Mind you, the screen is also on while I do this (auto brightness). If I just did heavy calling it'll last me throughout the day.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Si_NZ:
You can only do this if you are rooted. Simply move gpsd from /system/vendor/bin/gpsd out, say /system/vendor/

Keep in mind that doing so you will lose all GPS functionality until you reverse the change.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrycycle:
Thanks, going to test it out on my phones to see if there is a change in battery life. I generally get about 18 hours of hard use and 24 moderate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lancered:
My phone is refusing to charge, I have no clue what got into it. I had to fiddle and press extremely tightly and I figured I'd take it to AT&T today as this happened last night.

Well I woke up this morning and it was dead, it does not want to receive any charge at all. I did back up my contacts and texts, but I don't see the folders I had Dropboxed last night.

I have a rooted and ROMed phone, will this matter to AT&T? I just need them fix the port. I want to go back to stock but it's completely dead now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
I'd suggest to just give them a call so they send you a new one. If you manage to power it on or boost it on, then do so but bringing it to AT&T could be a problem. The custom ROM itself isn't so bad but rooting voids your waranty.

If you call their technician, they'll tell you to try a couple things and if it doesn't work, they usually send you a new one as long as you are under waranty.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlappyMcGee:
Two things to try:

1. Plug it in to a rear USB port on your pc.

2. Try another micro usb cable.

You probably already tried these 2 steps and if you have I apoligize for not offering much assistance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lancered:
I have yes, I have 3 different cables and it's the same. I've tried other ports, I tried the wall charger. I had some luck last night in my car as I kept it tight inside the middle console, but nothing this morning.

I guess I'll call instead then. If they send me one I can at least charge the battery and fix it, ship it back? Thank you!

EDIT: I'm SOL :(

The AT&T Chat support woman directed me to a specific location where they will check if it's my battery or the phone. If I could just get one charge on it I could fix it! :(

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AReynante:
This happened to me with a replacement captivate. I got it rooted and rom'd and then the port went dead. So I had to charge with my first one, and then wirelessly transfer the files to flash back. I had taken it to the warranty center, and it was running a custom stock rom, with super user and all that but they didn't notice :p
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulletproof1013:
Fyi. If you didn't know. The batterbattery n a vibrant would work too.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnerb123:
Did you try and pull the battery out and re-seat it after about 10 minutes of not being in the phone?

Also if you call them you will want to make sure when you send the phone back, that you un root it. A friend just got a bill for his referbed captivate and it wasn't cheap!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Allmaechtig:
I had this same thing happen to me (useing a rooted stock rom). Thankfully I had a second battery to use for a while. After a while I decided to try the dead battery, it took a few hours for the battery symbol to show and another 16 hours to get to a full charge. Try that... it might just be that the battery is just so dead it takes a while. Also if that is the case make sure get rid of the batterystats.bin file and you should be good to go. Worse comes to worse if you go to the at&t mobile device center just have them give you a new battery and it should be fine... good luck

Let me know how it goes

What if the rumors about LG producing the "Nexus" tablet are true, and it will be the "Google Dev Platform" for when Google releases Ice Cream?

To me, Ice Cream seems to be a major melding of uber goodness tech under one platform, it would only make sense for Google to want to release it on a Nexus branded Tablet....

Just my speculation, but, What do you think?

however since the volume rocker wont work, how can i restore back to stock rom? or am i really sc**wed? i believe i am, unless proven wrong?

thank you in advance
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
You don't really need the volume rocker to get back to stock. Here's some short instructions from this thread. Remember to use a branded RUU if your phone was branded when you got it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warwick108:
sorry to disturb you again

but to restore the stock rom, i need to get into bootloader,

i cant select stuff from the boot loader as the volume rocker doesnt work?

is there a way i can get around this?

thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
If I remember correctly there's no need to get to the bootloader. You run the RUU on the computer with the phone connected to HTC Sync.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
That is true. Another option is to connect your device to a PC, get my radio s-off tool (for example), go to it's folder in command line and type command "adb.exe reboot bootloader".
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banjiki:
If all you want is to get into recovery, you can use Rom Manager to boot you into recovery.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PD2:
I just bought and received a new Archos 70 internet tablet. I went through the initial setup of the device, including setting up WiFi connectivity to my Netgear WNR2000 which uses 802.11n with WPA2-PSK and a 63-character passphrase. The 70 states that it connects to the WNR2000 fine and even shows a very strong signal. When I get on the WNR2000 I see my device attached - I do have MAC Access List setup and have added the 70's MAC just fine. But, when I go to the Browser on the 70 and try to go to www dot google dot com or anything, it does not get me any where. It just keeps saying that the web page is not available.

So I downloaded and upgraded the 70 to the 2.1.08 firmware available from Archos. It did the same thing. Then I went through and reformatted the 70 and installed 2.1.08 again because I saw on Archosfans.com forum that someone did that and it resolved their issue. Still no luck. I have submitted a ticket with Archos Customer Support, but wanted to see if anyone ran into this issue and if they have resolved it or not. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

PD2:cool:
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PD2:
Fixed it!

I actually figured it out this morning when messing around with it again. The Netgear WNR2000 has a "Mode" setting that allows you to choose between 54Mbps, 145Mbps, and 300Mbps. I have always had it set to 300Mbps and have had a Wii, Blu-Ray player, two laptops, and an iPod Touch connected to it without any issues. Netgear states that the 300Mbps is a maximum throughput and that even in this setting clients that can only do 54Mbps such as 802.11b/g should negotiate just fine. Well, in order to have the Archos 70 connect and work I had to change that setting to 54Mbps. As soon as I did that it worked just fine. Archos Tech Support replied very quickly but after I told them what I found they told me that the Archos 70's WiFi chipset is rate limited to only 54Mbps to conserve battery life - that makes sense, but it seems like my Netgear may have an issue. So I'll be checking the firmware to see if maybe there's an update for the WNR2000 that addresses that issue.

PD2:cool:

sending AT commands to my Galaxy S

Hi there,

Im trying to access my My Galaxy S (Android 2.3.4 XXJVQ) as a GSM modem and send it AT commands.

Im using Windows 7, I cant seem to get this to work, whether through a cable or Bluetooth i can see in the phone in devices & printers dialog and it does list its modem as a feature and tells me on which port its connected, for USB its COM4 for BT its COM6.

However if i use Hyperterminal it wont let me type anything into the textbox, it just doesnt respond.

I also wrote a small C# app based on code samples i found online but it never seems to respond to the commands i send to it. If i use COM3 for my "Thinkpad Modem Adapter" and i type into my console app: "AT" or "AT+GMM" for example i get a response back. if i use the port for the phone (COM4) i get nothing back...

I tried the trick with setting the phone from PDA to Modem using *#7284# but then when i connect the phone to the PC it wont recognize it and in the device manager it shows me a device called 7CDCs which it cannot find a driver for.

Ive also tried PDANet, i got the computer and phone connected together but i still cant issue an AT command at the modem...

Not sure whats the problem here...

If anyone can help me with id really appreciate it.

thanks!

Yoav.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] midas5:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] fahzat:
Yeah, with the phone in Kies mode for usb connection and using PuTTY instead of hyperterminal (no longer provided with Win7) I got through to the modem on COM3. Whether the phone responds to all commands as expected seems to be another matter.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yoavniran:
Thanks fahzat,

Ill give it a try again with Putty but i did try Putty yesterday as well as Hyperterminal and got to the same situation where it seems to be connected to the phone over the port but then it wont allow me to type anything into the command prompt... You chose the "Serial" type connection in the Putty initial screen right?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] fahzat:
Correct, serial connection on COM3 (obviously your port may differ) with speed at 921600 (9600 seemed to work too). In the "Terminal" section set "Local echo" to "Force on" or you won't see what you're typing, only the response.
