Don't you mean Nokia, not Samsung. As far as I'm aware this is the only case that Apple have lost recently.
[Galaxy Tab General] FC1032:
Apple is pretty stupid, I never liked them >:( they are too elitist!

Sure they package nice ideas together, polish it up and then use HYPERBOLES to make it sound incredible. While I'm not going to go though the history of phones, pdas and such, I can confidently say apple is not the first to the game in anything. Why do they have the right to sue someone for something so broad and fundamental?

According to CNET Apple said: "The end result was a very clean shape for the phone, with an entirely flat glass panel for the front, gently rounded corners and integrated casing, and intuitive touch features. Before Apple's introduction of the first iPhone product, no other company was offering a phone with these features."

Ironic really, because one of the phones they point out is the Nexus S. If they had a little brains they would notice that the Nexus S has a curved screen and a pebble like shape (not that rectangular).

This all comes down to basic design! There are only a given amount of ways a phone can be made and used comfortably. Rectangles use space well, thats why phones without touchscreen before the iphone were rectangular!. No one will use a triangle screen! That's why they are rectangular too. They do have a point on touchwiz, but there are various elements not a complete Ios ripoff (i.e, everything is exactly the same)

I hope apple loses this case (and hopefully tone themselves down and not be such wusses and elitists!)

Im currently running s2e and i have no room to put dalvik back onto the internal memory. I wondering if i can just go into root explorer and go into /data/dalvik-cache/ and delete everything to clear dalvik? so like right before flashing a rom? I just want to see if this method works. I used to do a titanium back up, and then start deleting apps that were pretty large to make room for dalvik and that's a big pain in the booty. thanks guys.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
You can make an Ubuntu installation cd (I actually use an Ubuntu USB). You can actually run Ubuntu from a disc, no need to install. From there you can actually mount the ext as USB storage and add/delete things from it.

The Ubuntu website has Ubuntu for download for free and also provides instructions on making a bootable disc.

[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
Ill have to check Ubuntu out. Especially if I can do it via USB. I was wondering If i weren't by a computer, is there a way like root explorer or a terminal command? Im usually never by a computer. Just seeing some more options.

[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
If you have a root access file manager such as Root Explorer you can delete the dalvik cache easy. In Root Explorer go to:

/sd-ext/dalvik-cache/

just select all and delete it power off the phone/boot into recovery. Im not sure if this will also clear the dalvik in /data/dalvik-cache, so you may want to check that as well. The sd-ext and /data/ are both able to be modified with the phone on. I personally use Root Explorer. Sure it costs, but its the best file manager around. I use to wipe the dalvik off the sd-ext, but never thought to wipe the /data/dalvik-cache. I usually just wipe sd-ext from RE, and then boot into recovery and wipe dalvik that way too just to be on the safe side. But I suppose its easier to just use R.E. to wipe it all :P
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
Just relized that my work is very strict on running programs off of CDs and usb. So ubuntu wont work for me. Thanks so much though. anybody else out there have a different way of clearing dalvik on ext3 without a computer or moving back onto internal memory?

[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
Read the post above yours ;)

EDIT: You can use EStrongs File Explorer to do the same thing and its Free in the market. You have to go into settings and scroll all the way down to Root Options and select the two check boxes first. Then you will be able to access the sd-ext and /data/

I put together a nice little Tegra boot animation using Adobe Flash. It is exported as high as it can get, that is why it is 12mb and I cannot upload it to the XDA.

DOWNLOAD HERE: http://www.mediafire.com/?3cz2o1x6131p87x

It plays at 20FPS to look a little nicer and it repeats the outer glow part. I can't remember who it was who requested this some time like a month ago, but I thought of it the other day and here it is. Enjoy:D

http://www.mediafire.com/?3cz2o1x6131p87x
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] dLo GSR:
your PNG files need to be named as sequential numbers. i.e. 00001.PNG 00002.PNG etc. you can't have the "motorola nivida-xxx.png" filename type. use a program like batch file renamer to rename everything in sequence.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Krshaw18:
I think I was having the same problem at first.. Don't zip the folder containing the files up. Enter the file, then highlight all 3 files, right click, add to archive using your zip program, then set to "store" and name it bootanimation.zip. Should work after! Let me know if you have any problems with that. Looks good tho :)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] dLo GSR:
he did do the 'store' option i think it's just his naming convention that it doesn't understand.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] BravoMotorola:
Thank you SO MUCH! Works great, I think everyone will like it. Go ahead and try it out:D

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] DKRussell:
Now this is one classy boot animation... very nice work.... any chance of adding sound?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] BravoMotorola:
Thanks. And idk, what kind of sound would be good to go with it?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] DKRussell:
Maybe use this in the engine idea?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] theknub:
the green reminded me of the xbox startup sound
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] aver2one:
Awesome boot animation, how about this sound? I think it would be nice!

Of course you have to unzip the file its in ogg format and can upload it so I had to zip it...

Updated audio file since it was too low

UPDATE:

here is the atrix.ogg file in a zip to get it to work don't forget to edit the desc.txt to call it, I have the edited version just too lazy to upload since its 12 MB wont take it here, if anyone wants it pm me and I can email it

Also people with other sound ideas, give me the mp3 or wav and we can get it working for ya.

Heres a quick vid of what it sounds like mixed with Bravo's animation

http://youtu.be/HZVf28fccDA

HERES THE LINK FOR THE MODDED BOOTANIMATION.ZIP TO WORK WITH THE SOUND

All credit goes to OP I simply added the sound and modded the desc.text to look for the sound.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8347100/bootanimation.zip

To install: add this and the atrix.ogg to your /system/media

I recommend making backups of the old ones before modding anything

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] meloy:
Cool. How to install it?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] aver2one:
The animation or sound? The bootanimation.zip gets dropped in system/media the sound you have to edit the desc.txt to call the sound change the ext of the sound to .ogg and drop it in the /system/media too. I think I made,the volume too low. I will have to redo it .

Update:

updated the file to a better sound and it is in .ogg format now

You can use something like MP3Gain to just increase the db level of the file. No need for conversions.

I downloaded the audio and it's not the full Nvidia..............it's just the "ahhh" at the end.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] stratax:

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] :
LOL, that would be some funny ****..."Ahhh..(awkward silence)" Haha!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] :
I have the same file installed on my Atrix and it works fine. You hear all of it..."Ahhh...Nvidia". Have you tried installing it yet?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
No. File has a question mark on it in your Mediafile folder which would indicate a problem with the file. Maybe you can test by downloading the one you have uploaded. it may not have uploaded correctly. Also, it should play fine on my computer.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] :
It works. You're clearly not willing to try it out. Ogg files require proper Vorbis codecs to play fine on your computer, Google them.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] TheSmokingAndroid:
Wow what a cool ass bootanim!! I'm a bootanimation junkie!!

With that said...would it be possible for someone to create a CWM .zip for this? I think people would really love it...i know i would.

thanks in advance and cheers on the awesome bootanim!!!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
No need to be an ass about it. It played fine on my laptop at work, so yeah, must be a codec issue, but I also have no problems playing other .ogg files on my PC, so maybe the download was corrupt, but I did try the download twice. Also, I don't use files which I can't verify as working, so no, this wasn't a case of "clearly not willing to try it"..

I'll do this when I get home from work today unless someone else does it first.

Awesome animation, looks great! I have the sound file attrix.ogg in the system/media folder, but the sound does not play on boot. I looked for a Desc.txt file on the phone, as referenced in an earlier post, but search came up with no results. Any assistance to get the sound to play would be greatly appreciated!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
That file is in the bootanimation.zip file.

Are you installing by copying and pasting, or using the CWM flashable files?

<edit> Nothing wrong with the flashable files, so there must be something with the OP's originals. There were several uploads of the originals. Give me five and I'll drop a link to a bootanimation and audio file you can just copy and paste into /system/media

<edit 2> Try the following files. Should work OK for you:

bootanimation.zip

nvidia.ogg
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] swtaylor89:
Can't remember if I used CWM or download and copy,paste. Most likely the later as it's pretty simple via root explorer.

At any rate thanks twofold! I downloaded the bootanimation.zip file you posted and compared to the one I had. Then, I discovered the issue was the desc.txt file, which I now know is in the actual .zip file, where this one had a line calling the .ogg file and the one i had did not. I had never peaked inside the .zips before, just put them in the folder and was good to go, or used cwm.

So thanks for the quick response, and indirectly I gained a better understanding of how the boot animations work, especially in regards to sound.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blkdrgn613:
i have been trying all day to get boot anims to work. tried my own, tried various others, tried this one. none of them work.

after using root explorer, r/w system/media and renaming bootanimation.zip and copying the new one in, changing its permissions to rw-r--r--, i get the stock "dual core" image and thats all. it lasts for a few seconds, then the screen dims slightly, then goes blank until the os loads.

all anims i have tried, including the ones i have tried to make myself, have all been zipped properly as "store".

any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
Do you have Tenfars CWM installed?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blkdrgn613:
dont have cwm, doing everything as root, manipulating the files directly.

i did just manage to get THIS anim going. but i cant get my own to work. i will try using this one as a template since it is working.

i really want to remove the moto logo and replace it with a "tegra 2" nvidia badge since thats whats in the phone and not the tegra 1

after some digging, i found what i am trying to do, but still not where to find it or how to do it yet. but in case anyone else might stumble on this thread looking for the same thing i will keep everyone updated.

in essence, what i am trying to do is edit the KERNAL boot screens and animation.

what everyone messes around with are the ROM boot animation.

so if anyone can point me to the kernal splash screen, that would be great.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
Here are the files as you need to just copy and paste into /system/media:

bootanimation.zip

nvidia.ogg
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blkdrgn613:
that part i have, and it works. what i cant change, or more to the point, am too afraid to mess with is that initial kernal image.

but i do want to have my own boot anim

watch?v=hMMm9oAd8Fw

but no matter what i do to it, it wont run. is there a max filesize for bootanimation.zip? to the png's need to be encoded a specific way?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
Ah, sorry, I am not skilled enough to mess with the kernel stuff, although I am trying to learn.

I would suggest starting a new thread in the Q&A forum asking about modifying the boot animation kernel. Don't believe I have seen anything posted about that yet, and you will get more help from a bona fide developer.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blkdrgn613:
i found a thread here on xda about it.. way too complicated for me to attempt, involved raw images and compiling things.. no way lol

so i am going to skip that for now.

The only thing I like from the stock LG Optimus 2X software is the App drawer, it's really smooth and good for organizing your apps.

They rely on outside sources for pretty much everything, to attempt to become completely self reliant would be a bone-headed move and would absolutely kill their stocks.
