Hi all,

I have a CDMA Hero and was trying to get this boot animation working:

The Event Android boot animation by zul8er:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1092177

I installed it but get a black screen when the device is booting up. I am running Cyanogen Mod 7 and the animation that came with it worked fine. If you guys could help me out on getting this to work I would appreciate it.

Attached is the animation file that was created by the original author (resized for the Hero):

It is 320X480 and the permissions are set per the link above.

Thanks guys.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
You posted this in development, which it is not. :mad::mad: I would say read the OP of that thread. I just read it and it says it's 480*800 and if you have a diff screen res (heroC is 320*480) you need to change the desc.txt. Also, depending on what ROM you are running bootanim lives in different folders. Try putting it in data/local

EDIT: just saw you have the 320*480 one.

EDIT2: at least it's not in dev anymore :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killabee44:
Yeah, I posted it to the wrong forum. My fault. Thanks mods for correcting that.

I tried the flashable version but Recovery game me an error, so the creator of the animation made me a non flashable one. I moved it with root explorer and set the permissions correctly per the creator's instructions.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch1naski:
What rom are you on? Cm7 stable?

If so, it should go into /system/media. I don't know about having to set permissions, I never had to do that to get a boot animation working....

I have tried putting bootanimation.zip in /system/media and /data/local and neither method works for me. I get a black screen instead of the boot animation. I've tried changing the animation multiple times with a few different versions of AOSP and CM7. I've even tried to find the stock bootanimation.zip in /system/media from a newly flashed ROM before adding a new one, and I cannot ever seem to see that file, either.

I keep reading threads with instructions to put the bootanimation.zip in either location with Root Explorer or through Terminal Emulator, with /data/local being preferred), and I keep doing exactly the same steps, but I seem to have no success. I've tried various boot animations from this section of the forums, I've edited the desc.txt file to make sure things are the correct size, etc. I managed to get the Pac Man boot animation to run once (placed in /data/local), edited the desc.txt to have the animation loop, and got the black screen after that. I have not gotten any boot animation to work since then (other than the stock CM7 and AOSP animations for the ROM I'm using). I've even tried using bootanimationutility.apk, but it also cannot find any bootanimation.zip when run it, so it won't change anything for me.

I've brought my Hero back to stock since then, and have flashed Evolvr (I love it, but no Music prevents it from being ROM of choice), CM 7.0.3, and AOSP 5/23. I'm still getting the same results. I wipe everything make sure I start clean, and I still can't change my boot animation.

I've got just enough familiarity with working on this phone to get myself into trouble if I'm not thinking, and barely enough patience to keep myself from running into that problem sometimes. Can anyone help me figure this out? I know my Hero might be getting a little long in the tooth, but I'm getting married in the fall, and my money is a bit tied up in that for a while, so no new Evo 3D for me just yet.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laie1472:
Are you trying to get a boot animation you made to work or just a boot zip period to work??

#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelofmenoth:
any boot animation at all.

EDIT: hmmm... now I just got the broken glass boot animation from this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1096068) to work correctly from /data/local. Maybe my luck has changed.

I guess this is what I get for deciding to stop lurking and start learning.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelofmenoth:
Another update. I tried to change some of the previous boot animation to have the droid pulse instead of just remain lit. I added the duplicate png files, renamed them in order, and made a new zip. I'm back to a black screen. I'm guessing there's something that I messed up when I created the new zip file. I was able to switch back to the unmodified version, and it worked just fine. Anyone got any tips for editing other non-flashable .zip's? I've got a few that I'd like to try out and tweak a little, but I can't ever get them to properly load when I put them in /data/local, just like what happened here.

It's nice to know people will try to help instead of just ignoring those of us who don't know a ton about all of this.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeyfamily737:
When you zip up your boot animations you have to zip them with no compression. You have to select add to archive and store (using 7 zip). After you zip your folder, you have to go back into it (open archive) and make sure you don't have any thumbs.db files that got added when you zipped up the folder. With CM7 / Aosp roms your bootanimation.zip should go in /system/media. I struggled with this for a couple of days before I got everything working smoothly. Good luck.

Do you have a problem with your bluetooth on your Samsung device working correctly with your vehicles bluetooth? Does it get disconnected? Does it not even pair? Does the problem seem to be occurring with the phonebook being downloaded? If you are encountering this or any other bluetooth related problems with your Samsung device. Please post the following like below:

Year: 2010

Make: BMW

Car Model: M3 Coupe

Phone Model: Droid Charge

I'm in contact with a software engineer at Samsung, we need to get this issue PROPERLY resolved. This issue is not with our car manufacturer (as Samsung like to put the blame on them), but instead with Samsung. Numerous models of their phones do not successfully pair or only temporarily hold a pair with vehicle installed bluetooth kits. I believe this to be a problem with the Bluetooth Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) on Samsung devices specifically as all other model phones successfully pair with my vehicle.

Please post in this thread if you are encountering or encountered any issues!

[Verizon Droid Charge] Doc T2:
BMW - Samsung Charge Phone Book BlueTooth Workaround

Fix for this is counterintuitive. When you start your phone or restart bluetooth go to Settings>Applications>Running Services. Look for the Service "BluetoothPbapService". tap it, then hit stop. This removes it from the list. The phone pairs and uploads the phone book without problems until you either stop and restart bluetooth or turn your phone off. I am looking for a developer who can automate this process with an app without rooting the phone. Hope this helps.

[Verizon Droid Charge] CJNYC:
OK, so here's what I've figured out. My initial response regarding the 2010 M3 being perfect was premature, though I have figured out where the issue lies. When my Charge connects to iDrive the first time, everything works, as it holds the connection and the phone book downloads perfectly. It's on repeated reconnections when I get back in the car that the signal will drop after a few minutes. Only when I reset the Bluetooth radio within the Charge does it again hold the signal. My guess is that the Charge is caching some information that it shouldn't be, which is causing it to disconnect after a reconnection. Again, if the Bluetooth radio within the Charge is reset, the connection always holds perfectly.

Hope this helps.

Guys. Follow Doc's post in disabling the service PBAP in your Running Services. This has fixed the problem for me as of now. No problems with connections. You must do it each time you power cycle the phone though

For rooted users:

go to /system/app/bluetoothpbap.apk and rename to bluetoothpbap.apk.bak. reboot your phone and pair again with your car.

This worked PERFECTLY for me, it works exactly the way it should now and the phonebook/everything is all good. :D :D :D

I am also using a Win 7 64bit computer, with the Eclipse IDE. This is driving me nuts, since I need to test my app on a phone first before I can publish. It did work before when I first got the phone and it was on the Stock ROM. Not sure if this is an eclipse issue, phone issue, or ROM issue. Thanks for any help.

SOLVED IT!

I suppose this is what happens when you're not too familiar with what you're doing. It was a goldcard issue. I realized that the initial tutorial that I was following made me reverse the CID in a wrong way - and that was why I could not downgrade using RUUs non-specific to vodafone.

Did it now though! I hope this is useful for others having similar problems!

Hello,

First of all, I am definitely a newbie so excuse me in advance for possibly missing an obvious link.

I'm trying to downgrade my htc legend from 2.1 to 1.3 so that i can eventually root it and put cyanogenmod on it.

while using the RUU, i run into Error 131 saying that I should use the correct RUU. I have searched and searched and seen that people wrote that this is a goldcard issue. I have tried doing the same thing with another card which is definitely a successful goldcard because it has been used for this same purpose before.

I notice that this might be because it's a vodafone phone (in UK). The phone itself is unlocked. Could vodafone have something to do with it and if yes, is there a way to bypass that?

Can someone please please help me get past this error? Before then I get the 171 error but if I just exit the RUU and unplug and plug back my phone, it works fine.

Thank you!

I'm basically just doing what the tutorials I've been following have told me. I'm pretty sure I have to downgrade to 1.31. I thought I had solved it but I was just not paying attention and I had downloaded 1.32 instead so I couldn't root the phone.
