Yes. I am running Darky 10.1 Extreme and I ran into the the same problem, or more like point-of-confusion. I just deleted those .qmg files with rootexplorer app and put the bootanimation.zip file in there instead. Should work fine if you do it right.

Thanks for this tutorial!
[Android Themes] jacsonmoore3:
I did step by step as the OP says...I cant get it to run on my phone but it will run thru the Boot Animation Previewer..can someone til me what steps I'm leaving out here's the bootanimation if u can look into for me http://www.4shared.com/file/-NpIQfUq/bootanimation.html
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
I'll take a look. :)
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
Can you make the boot animation smaller, or just upload the desc.txt file? Because I'm on holiday and the Internet is slow. :o
[Android Themes] jacsonmoore3:
heres the desc.txt....I use the Boot Animation Previewer Tool in it work but all i see is a black screen when i load it on my phone I don't think its the desc.txt
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
The desc.txt file seems good, but it may be with the size of your boot animation. Maybe your phone doesn't have that much free memory to process the boot animation.
[Android Themes] jacsonmoore3:
let me make it smaller
[Android Themes] AndroJordan:
What should be the dimensions of the each picture? My boot animation works but its cut off....
[Android Themes] silverxbv2:
You ideally want the size of the images to be the same size as your screen resolution. So the evo and incredible are 480x800. I have made some where the images are half the screen size because your desc.txt will dictate the size.
[Android Themes] jacsonmoore3:
i got it to work...the images was not saving in the right screen resolution...thz 4 the help
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
For all of you who make boot animations with .jpg images, now my Boot Animation Previewer supports .jpg files! If you have it, make sure you update it, or if you don't have it, you can get it from here!
[Android Themes] jacsonmoore3:
man do you know a easier way to rename over 300 photos...can u make a program for that...LOL
[Android Themes] silverxbv2:
I use a program called Faststone photo resizer. It has a few cool features including batch rename.
[Android Themes] jacsonmoore3:
I forgot I had Adobe Bridge CS4...........its on NOW
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
You inspired me for a new program! Thank you! :D
[Android Themes] szacuken:
Hi :) Thanks for the tutorial :) Now i made my first bootanimation for my milestone :D
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
I'm glad you found this tutorial useful. :)
[Android Themes] indian65:
I don't no why, but I have a white screen when I test my new bootanimation, if it's possible to fix it

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GP3LMRJA

Thank's so much for your work
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
I've fixed it. Here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/?6kxc673sd5vliyh

You've forgotten do leave an empty line at the end of the desc.txt file. And for the first folder, you have typed: p 0 1 part0, instead of p 1 0 part0.
[Android Themes] indian65:
thank's so much for you'r quickly reply, I test it

EDIT/ I'm sorry, but I have white screen too
[Android Themes] kly91:
didn't have any sound after following your tut sir..
[Android Themes] despotovski01:
Maybe you are doing something wrong. If not, I really don't know what the problem is. The tutorial about the sound is not mine.
[Android Themes] kly91:
I c..but i'm sure i followed it 100%..thanks anyway..maybe i have to be lucky to make it work..btw the filename of the bootsound.sh doesn't coincide with the commands in the tutorial..the file is named bootsnd.sh and the tutorial says bootsound.sh
[Android Themes] flyermat:
thanks for tuto ;)
[Android Themes] 2leaponover1:
This tutorial is much easier than the other one i followed, but it also walked you through how to turn a video into a boot animation which takes a lot of work, but well worth it in the end. I had the title sequence from Fringe and it turned out great.

I'd like to turn a .gif into a boot animation, any link on how to go about doing that?
[Android Themes] silverxbv2:
Is that the same one that i made for you?
[Android Themes] 2leaponover1:
The Fringe one? I know i had someone tinker with it, may have been you? I'll have to check pm's. Right now I have a really tiny .gif that is so awesome and i just want it as my boot animation. Do i have to break it down to .pngs? I'd imagine so but it is so tiny it can't be a lot of frames. I want the whole thing looping too. I'm at work, i'll have to mess around with it when i get home.

Gonna check pms now!

Edit: YUP, you were the man!!! Wanna see the .gif and see what you can do, like i said, it's really a simple .gif
[Android Themes] indian65:
I don't understand, I have the good desc, my Pictures have the good size and it's in .png, I'm compress with stored option, I test the fix zip, but everytime I have white screen, The phone vibrate when it change the folder (part0, vibrate,part1), but it didn't see my pictures

I'm apologise for my bad english
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A70h:
My A70H has been installed the SDE, when I tried to install the UrukDroid_1.0, I cannot copy the UrukDroid-install.tgz from my PC.

Eventually, i found all the internal / external storage has gone, and only 1.45GB system storage shows in the Storage page.:(

Does anyone have similar experience before? Would any expert can advise how can I fix the problem??

Million thanks~:)
[XPERIA X10 General] b3yond:
Im planning to get a new phone, the infuse or g2x which one should i pick...i still love my x10 (
[XPERIA X10 General] Bruce Lee:
G2x over the infuse definetly. The dual core processor is awesome and its fast, awesome screen, and one of the best out there
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
The colours are often tooo dark and unnatural on the sgs2. There is not nuch loading diffrence between the Arc and Sgs2. The qrc screen has more natural colour that look great! So defibetely the arc.
[XPERIA X10 General] DooMLoRD:
if u want power along with beauty go for Samsung Galaxy S2 (the best phone available right now)... latest hardware shouldnt be outdated for another 10-12 months... btw some of the TOP devs at XDA are already working on SGS2 http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1058

lg 2x (aka G2x) has got good hardware but they have wasted a lot of space on the handset design... i have tested it and the display/screen is only 4'' but the whole device feels unnecessarily bulky/big almost as big as the 4.3'' ones... the touch sensitive buttons are not really very sensitive and require a little fiddling to get them to work (especially HOME button)...

if u just want to go for the looks of the Arc only then buy it... already outdated hardware... it is already 8-10 months old (MSM7230/QSD8255)...
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
LOL

wow it's obvious you don't know what you're talking about

The sgs2 beats the arc in every possible area, except MAYBE camera, and even that is debatable.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Now here is someone who knows what he's talking about....

You'd be stupid to buy an arc right now imo.
[XPERIA X10 General] riginal:
SG2 is your best option for now but personally I'm waiting for SE to come up with a good xperia phone (hardware-wise) because although Sg2 is really powerful with impressive specs imo it hasn't got style at all
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
you'll be waiting a long time....

By the time they put a dual core out, quad core phones will be out.

SE is always one step behind the game for some reason, they definitely aren't innovators
[XPERIA X10 General] riginal:
Well only ONE step is fine with me as long as it's something as good looking and stylish as X10 but currently it's more than just one step

& I can wait for a while because I'm still happy with my X10
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
I'd like to see them put something out that is at least on par with the current technology....

I don't want to buy a phone and have it be obsolete in just a couple months
[XPERIA X10 General] kozxmartt:
Wow, the OP wasn't even talking about either phones. :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] b3yond:
Impresive responses, thank you guys!
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
You're calling almost 1 second faster beating a phone? Then you're crazy.
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Ever heard of advise?
[XPERIA X10 General] riginal:
by the way why you think that SE won't catch up? I mean they didn't do bad with their first android phone (hardware-wise) or did they?
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
1 second faster?? lol

Where are you getting these numbers?

Also, 1 second of speed for a cpu makes a hell of a difference, one second of lag vs. one second of no lag.

It is 2-3 times more powerful and has at least double the quadrant score and linpack.

The cpu/gpu is a current gen vs. an outdated one.

You can think whatever you want, but electronics is my job/field.

The sgs2 is far more advanced than the arc.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
It wasn't bad, but they pushed off releasing it so far that by then it was falling behind, especially with the version of android.

Then they release their new batch of phones, a full generation behind what the technology is shifting to.

I love my x10 still, but I'm definitely not impressed with SE's latest offerings. They're going to have to do/release something major to get me to buy an SE phone for my next phone
[XPERIA X10 General] DooMLoRD:
precisely...

the dual core chips (MSM8660/Terga2) were already available they should have atleast kept the "Flagship" phones i.e. the Arc & Play with latest hardware and kept the rest on single core (MSM7230/QSD8255)...

BTW i already have the Arc, its a beautiful device but not really that powerful...

still like my X10 with all the dev thats going around... its challenging ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] strix75:
I have ordered a S2 and will recive ut in about 2weeks. It. Will be my first phone that is not a sony Ericsson.
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
The SGS2 has definetely some lagg. But not as much as on arc. Fanboys :p My next phone will be a quadcore from HTC :) If it comes haha!
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
HTC are really good phones actually...

I just don't do brand loyalty, I go with whatever the best phone is
[XPERIA X10 General] a.monteiro:
actually, the x10 launched with pretty decent specs hardware-wise, the software on the other hand... LOL

however, SE has the best designers on Android imo, the Arc is a beautiful device, the minis also look great, HTC and Motorola phones look clunky, Galaxy is an iPhone rip-off, hopefully the competition will force everyone to step up, i would love to have an Android phone that looks as good as a SE but is managed by HTC. :D
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
I like SE phones but I don't think they are that well designed....

Very plasticy imo.

This time around, their hardware is reallly lacking.

I think htc phones are very well designed actually, depending on which one. Plus they are extremely well made.

I don't get people saying sgs2 looks like an iphone though, aside from touchwiz, have you used one in person?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
Here is a .zip file that I put together from the Fascinate Stay Awake zip.

I installed it on my phone and it seems to be working pretty good.

This is my first file that I've tried to share so if there are any problems getting it pm me.

1. Download .zip file to sd card

2. reboot phone into recovery. (if your not running CWM this won't work)

3. select "install .zip from sd card.

4. select .zip file

5. select install .zip file.

6. press volume up and down at the same time to enable "go back" button on cwm menu.

7. go back

8. restart phone

This option will be in the settings menu under applications/development

Running I510 with jt's CWM recovery / voodoo lagfix and imnuts ED2 debloated rom

Install .zip at your own risk.

THIS IS A FASCINATE FILE THIS MAY OR MAY NOT WORK.

IT APPEARS THIS IS CAUSING SOME FORCE CLOSES WITHIN THE SYSTEM SETTINGS....DUE TO THE FACT IT WAS DESIGNED FOR THE FASCINATE.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19329803/stay_awake_charge.zip
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
When you say "installed it on my phone," would that phone be a Charge (or a Fascinate)? Will give this a try in a bit.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
I am using a the Charge now.

I did notice a force close when I tried to adjust the brightness in the display settings. but you can still adjust by using the slide your finger accross the top of the screen method.
[Verizon Droid Charge] nitsuj17:
Did you actually incorporate the mod into charge files or just flash the mod from the fascinate?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
I used the .apk from the fascinate .zip then used part of the .zip file that imnuts used for the patch from v2 to v3 of his rom.

If thats totally wrong let me know so I can fix it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ffd173:
Curious...

what finger swipe across the top method???
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
From your home screen touch the top as if you are going to pull down the notification screen down. When you see the notification screen come down off the top, slide your finger left to dim and right to brighten.

Sent from my voodoo Droid Charge ED2
[Verizon Droid Charge] nitsuj17:
thats a settings.apk from the fascinate then...i wouldnt recommend releasing modified apks from other phones as a mod unless specifically saying "this is a fascinate file, may/may not work"....just my .02

i can find out the specific edit for it and redo for it for the charge settings.apk if that is something people really want
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
Thanks...I'm always open to suggestions.

I am and always will be learning.

[Verizon Droid Charge] stranula:
I was quite annoyed by the fact you couldn't stay awake when plugged in. I looked through the Charge settings in the ee4_deodexed system files and it looks like it should be available under settings>applications>development, but it doesn't actually show up. I was comparing it to the stay awake zip you put up and I haven't yet been able to figure out where the changes were made to make it work. I did, however, in my search find "stay awake widget" on the market which lets you choose if you want to stay awake when attached to USB or AC, and it works perfectly! So I guess all my frustration with it had a very simple fix haha
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
I have been trying out different roms and it seems like imnuts rom and gummy rom stay awake on there own when plugged in.

Sent from my voodoo Charge EE4
[Verizon Droid Charge] jkcheng122:
I wonder is Samsung purposely leaves out the "Stay Awake" option b/c the SAMOLED+ display is more prone to burn-ins.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Keighles:
I do believe that is the reason it is not there.

I find it a pain in the a@# when im driving and using a music player.

Hey all!

Quick question: I have the 10.1v and I want to download google earth.

I find it available in the Market, but when I try to download it I get a message that it is not supported in my country :(

I'm in Greece btw...

Any ideas how I could cheat the market in order to download it?

Thanks in advance.

G.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] smaskell:
well you could just install this apk..

but as for tricking the market, I don't know. Market enabler might work, if you have root.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] XaMaB:
According to google, google earth looks limited to a very small list of countries. Which looks very strange to me

Market enabler should work as smaskell suggested already

Thanks guys!

Now it works in Greece too ;)

[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
I am currently thinking about rooting my samsung epic.I was planning on going through with with the easy one-click root. My question about rooting is if I root it would I be unable to upgrade to 2.3 when samsung actually releases it?
[Epic 4G General] ZiggSVO:
From what I know when you root and run different ROMs you cant get OTAs. But its simple enough to restore your phone to stock :)

So root away!

And besides...once Gingerbread does come out the custom ROMs built off of that will make it worth it to root again :p

So check my signature for qbkings how to videos and get to it :p
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
Sorry I am really at both rooting and posting threads. How would i go about returning to stock when 2.3 releases? and then could I do the same process to re root after i get the ota? and I will check your videos, thanks for all your help man.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
scratch what i just wrote about how to haha. Does the odin flash to stock erase all my contacts and current apps on my phone?
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Yes, and the rooting process for Epic Gingerbread us still under discussion. If you upgrade from a custom froyo rom to a custom gb rom, you'll bypass having to root again and lose minimal data.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
Do you mean the current gb roms that have been leaked and are out for rooted phones now? or do you mean when samsung themselves release the update that the update itself will be available for rooted phones in a rooted state itself? and if you meant the current gb updates that have been release are they smooth running or still a bit glitchy since they aren't the finished product? I apologize if any of this is common sense haha
[Epic 4G General] lancelane:
If you root now and put a custom 2.2 rom on phone then you can just wait a day or two after the ota gb release before ace or someone else releases a custom rom based on the ota gb release. Then you will be able to flash the upgrade and not lose data. I would suggest Midnight, bonsai or syndicaterom frozen by acs.

Samsung Epic SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
I actually have no idea what rom I am going to to go with after i root it haha. Ive just had this phone for a few months and feel like doing something new, i also want to put a free wifi app on there so i dont have to pay sprint more for a feature i had free on my old tp2. like i said I am a complete rookie to this besides putting cfw on my old psp and having android on my tp2 :D , and that means that if i just wait for the gb rom to come out complete after someone makes a custom for it than il just have to come back to the great xda and upgrade myself?
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
The newest syndicate rom would be right up your alley. Read the instructions, watch the video and you'll be fine.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
I'm you guys are getting annoyed with all my questions so il aske a few last ones and will root my phone with in the hour. Does using a different rom transfer my apps and contacts? i wasnt sure if it acted as a new skin or a duel boot kind of like how my tp2 was. If i back up my phone right after the root I am guessing i can restore to back up if i am not a fan of the rom, or is there a different way? You guys are a ton of help thanks the root and lancelane.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Some ROMs back up your data, and others do not. It depends on the ROM. You should do a simple root, and backup with Titanium backup and do a Nandroid backup as well. Just in case. Apps and contacts usually are available when you log back into your gmail but if you save contacts on phone instead of google they won't. You can also export your contacts to google or your sd card.

Ask away. But also look at the videos.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
the contacts are not that big of a deal since i do have it saved on my gmail, but i didn't think my apps could be saved and transfered. and random question i have a few games saved on tiger gba and psxondroid, would i lose those save files saved on the emulator on the new rom? I know i don't loose any of that on the root or so my research lead me to believe.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Again that depends on the ROM. Some, like Bonsai, now back up and then restore your data. If you root and use Titanium backup you will be able to restore data to those games if they get wiped.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
Ok so somehow i suck at the one-click method. It says something about no phone being found. I guess i will have to get a bb usb cord and try again.
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Turn off your anti-virus and firewall as well.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
And try a different usb port.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
Turn off the anti virus on my phone or the comp?
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Computer. Phone will do its own thing.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
I've been busy working but I will try to see if I can't get the root to work when I have some time off
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Most anti-virus and some firewalls see rageagainstthemachine as a trojan so will block it and sometimes delete it.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
But my antivirus didt go off or tell me there was a virus. Just when I click a key when it says press any key it starts and then says there is no phone found.
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Anti virus and firewall will block the computer from seeing the phone.
[Epic 4G General] SOTASFINEST65:
Sorry guys long time no post, I just bought a new truck so I've been busy. I saw that the new 2.3 gb was coming out yesterday in waves so I was going to root after I get it just so I don't run int ny snags.

[Epic 4G General] The Root:
The devs have said you may be best rooting now, since all known exploits have been patched. Once rooted, just wait a few hours for a GB rom to arrive.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Ummm...no its not. If you ever think Gingerbread has released check Sprint's website. The day OTAs start it is listed as the newest version firmware for the Samsung Epic. No memos from Sprint have been posted. EVO got GB so someone was confused.
[Epic 4G General] flight3:
As long as your contacts are linked to your gmail account all of your contacts information will be transferred with each rom.

Have you installed the samsung epic 4g drivers?
[Epic 4G General] flight3:

[Epic 4G General] keyeblackmon:
yes. oneclickroot.
