[T-Mobile LG G2x] EtherealRemnant:
MIUI is a lot more than a simple skin. As others have said, its blazing fast, has amazing features built in (I really like being able to control all of my connections by the dropdown bar and even being able to reboot and such through the same bar) and is extremely polished.

The availability of themes can make it decidedly un-iOS very easily. The customization options built into the ROM are absolutely insane and I have it on my Inspire as well as my Captivate - I really hope someone picks it up and ports it to the G2x.

In comparison to most other devices, development on the G2x seems to be pretty slow overall which is a huge bummer. I guess too many people are busy constantly exchanging their devices to actually get cracking on development. *eye roll*
[General Questions and Answers] hollywoodfrodo:
Hopefully, I'm posting in the right section. If not, please forgive me and move to the right one.

I have Fancy Widget Pro on my phone. The problem is, I want to use 2 widgets from FWPro: the first is a 1x4 clock & weather which I use on the main screen of my Droid Incredible. I have a custom clock skin I made for it and a weather skin i downloaded from the FW market. The second is where I run into a problem - I have 5 Day forecast 1x4 widget on my WidgetLocker Lockscreen. The thing is I DON'T want a background on that one and I also want to create a separate custom weather skin for that one.

In FW Pro, you can set the background to show or not and that setting is applied to every widget. Likewise, you pick one weather skin and that is applied to the weather in every widget.

I'm thinking the only way to actually have separate ones would be to decompile the .apk file for FW Pro and leave all the functionality the same but change any reference to Fancy Widget Pro to a new name (Fancy Widget Extended maybe) to in essence create a new 2nd App that could be installed on my phone. I not quite savvy enough to actually do that, but I'm wondering if I'm correct in that thinking or if someone else has a better idea.

Thanks in advanced for any help!

I do that with swipe. but i dont know alot about this stuff i spend about 90 mins a day playing with the pictures in the drawable folder. still cant do png.9. but not to worried. apkmanger doesnt work for me either.

Link the file? qmg is the default animation files we get with stock.

There's a good chance all that's needed is to have the kernel ~not~ use the bootanimation.zip method for boot animations (and place the file in the right location with the right name)..

Samsung Droid Charge Boot Animation

Done (see attachment).

Tested in the new cwm (3.0.2.5?) works for me. (Now I'm gonna remove it.) ;]

This is very similar to my Stock Boot Animation, it uses the same "dummy" bootanimation.zip to allow it to work on bootanimation.zip enabled kernels.

Other than fake out the kernel, the only thing I had to do was rename the bootsamsung.qmg to bootani.qmg.

Enjoy.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Root:
Didn't work.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nubecoder:
Does for me. What kernel are you running?

If the kernel doesn't support bootanimation.zips simply remove the "/system/media/bootanimation.zip" file that was installed and it should work.

Also, a little more info on what happened or what went wrong, etc would be helpful.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nubecoder:
Yes the zip file is a ClockworkMod recovery flash-able zip, sorry for the confusion, I should have clarified that to begin with.

Would have taken longer with out your dropbox links ;]

I've only come across Samsung devices that use the crazy locked down qmg files for the boot animations.

Since this worked, I would figure the chances of success are high as long as the files are coming from a Samsung device.

I don't know, there is only the usual check for phone model, etc. The rest of the script uses no error / validity checking.

Instructions?

Sure thing:

[ EASY ]

Download zip file.

Put zip onto phone's SD card.

Boot into Clockwork Mod recovery.

Select "Install zip from /sdcard".

Browse for file, agree to install...

Reboot phone.

[ MANUAL ]

Download zip file.

Extract files to computer.

Use adb to push the files to the phone (search google for exact commands):

files/PowerOn.wav -> /system/etc/PowerOn.wav

files/bootanimation.zip -> /system/media/bootanimation.zip

files/bootani.qmg -> /system/media/bootani.qmg

files/bootsamsungloop.qmg -> /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg​

CHMOD 0644 the files (not sure this is required, but why not?).

Reboot phone.

I hope this will help you get it working.

This was easy, simply because I'd already done the research on how to get the stock bootani.qmg files to work on a kernel that supports bootanimation.zip.

If the Epic wasn't a Samsung phone, it would have probably never happened, since Qmage is proprietary (and probably quite expensive) and I'm not aware of any other manufacturer using the qmg file format.

Hey, I too am running on the edge and I never lockup and I never have to pull the battery as a matter of fact, this is the most stable phone and ROM I have ever been on.

I am running 1.9.0 on top of 351.

I have replace the internal card with a 4GB Class 10 and upgraded the external card to 32GB Class 10.

I have replaced the LCD twice and have to do it again. Each time my own fault.

What I am trying to say is, I think it would be a good Idea for you to reload your phone from scratch.

I put on the 351 recovery and then loaded the 351 ROM. I think I did a factory reset prior or maybe after, anyhow, i the the new ROM pretty much was blank to start with.

I then loaded StreakMod or ClockworkMod recovery and then loaded 1.9.0.

When this was done, I had a screaming machine that is great on the battery and never locks up or coughs or spits on me. ;)

Oh, and I learned that if you keep loading new framework-res.apk files to play with your battery on the status bar or notification bar, you will end up with a Streak that is not happy and will lockup or cough on you.

I do have a custom power icon installed, perhaps that's the culprit. Maybe I'll attempt a full rebuild over the weekend before contemplating surgery.
