Tried that. Also removed existing bootanimation files but that just resulted in a black screen. From elsewhere also tried /data/local and one other location but no joy. Have you managed to run a bootanimation.zip from the system/media location on this rom?
[Galaxy S II General] nesx87:
I know there have been numerous similar threads but i would

really appreciate some quick help here.

I have a samsung galaxy s XEU region etc.

I never modded and i never intend to, i want everything official

and as safe as possible.

Even with gingerbread, i am a bit dissappointed with my phone.

Maybe it was the hype, but in any case, i am getting fed up with some lag, and some gps issues.

What i am wondering about is whether the galaxy s 2 will be one of the same, or whether you think that considering future android OS updates, and google's 18 months minimum of support guideline for manufacturers, this will be a durable/futureproof phone.

Are there any known faults like with the lag issue of galaxy s from the very begginning?

Is it worth updating now?

If you have something useful to say thank you, if not, get out of here :)

[Dell Streak 7] NarkyMark:
Decided to have a go at my first bit of dev (if you can call it that :rolleyes:), by converting a game designed around SDK2 and bringing it to the Streak7's Honeycomb screen, It is similar to Cartoon Wars for the iPhone but nowhere near as good.....But it passes the time and can be quite addictive on the hardest setting!

I decided to do this as my youngest lad loves this type of game (as I do too :D) I could not find a version other than the ones designed around a small screen device, although the original runs on the Streak7 it displays a small game, also it was an excuse to learn something new :cool:

The original game would scale up when the LCD density was set to 160, but this version scales up & lets you keep DJ_Steve's recommended 106 density setting for his HD7-B3 OS, I have not tried it on any other device other than the Streak7 or any other OS other than HD7-B3, so feedback would be appreciated on other Device/OS combo's.....Although I don't expect it to work on anything else other than Streak7-HD combo :D

The overall process was time consuming to say the least, mostly in the latter stages of fine tuning the .png sizes for paticular images, too big and the game wouldn't load, too small and it left empty bits of screen everywhere.

The programs I used to help me achieve my goals where:

APKTOOL - by Brut.all - For the decompile/recompile of original .apk (must have tool :cool:)

.XML Editor - For the obvious

IMAGE CONVERTER PLUS - A brilliant program for batch image conversions that can be profiled to your specific needs

AUTO-SIGN by Dave Da Illest 1 - Which enables you to sign your recompiled .apk (does what it says on the box :cool: )

Anyway, have a try for yourself and let me know your results :)

[Dell Streak 7] NarkyMark:
....As I expected TBH, I rekon the original would work just fine though, but posting that would of been outright piracy IMHO, this is more of a screen mod of the original that is based around the 106 LCD Density setting of HD7, I could of created a few drawable-XXXX folders for the different res, but then this just takes the file size to rediculous levels.

Many thanks for taking the time trying and replying anyway, much appreciated, button pressed! :cool:

I recharged my Galaxy Tab 10.1 yesterday from a 15% remaining charge.

I powered it off and used the wall charger. It took almost 6 hours to charge to 100%!

Is this normal or is there something wrong with the battery?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ravynmagi:
Mine was slow at first too. But now seems to have gotten quicker.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jerrykur:
What is the rating on the charger that comes with the unit?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] luigig:
The rating is 5V - 2A
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dsEVOlve:
Yep, noticed it took about 3 hrs to go 40% charging. Not sure why there is such a drastic difference from the Xoom which could charge from 10% to full in little over an hour with similar drain to GT.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] luigig:
Can you please quantify what quicker means?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jvanbrecht:
We have a rather large battery in the device, while I agree 6 hours is abit much, it should be quicker at 2 amps.

On the other hand, I sit in on the charger at night before I go to bed. I am definately a heavy user as well, and the battery lasts me all day with atleast 30 to 40% left over by bed time (this includes a 1.5 hour commute each direction using Waze, the GPS, and wifi tethered to my phone, 2 gmail accounts polling every 15 min, web surfing throughout the day, and playing games during my morning and afternoon constitutions :) .. I know.. too much info)..

So I can live with a longer charge time, at least for now..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DensoYamaha41:
I charged my GT Tab completely before using it the first time. Then I drained it down to about 9%. I timed my first full charge from 9% to 100%, it took exactly 6 hours and 4 min. My Xoom charged in half the time. I am hoping it gets better like I have heard from different people.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] madsquabbles:
i believe the xoom's charger is 16watts or more. i can't really remember, but it's got the highest rated charger b/t the xoom, tf, and gt10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] verusevo:
I think that's just wishful thinking on their part. How does a battery suddenly learn to charge itself faster. You make it sound like the battery is a muscle you can work out. The thing takes forever to charge but it also has excellent battery life. So as long as you don't find yourself in a hurry to travel without time to charge the battery should last you almost all day.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tycon:
I charged the device fully before use. Used it down to 10%, plugged it in and charged to full powered off. This took around 6 hours. The second time I charged it from around 14-15% It took about 4 hours. I have charged it twice more since from almost zero, and it's taking about two hours.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bella92108:
Remember the math:

7000 mAh battery

2000 mAh charger

That means from drain to full if the screen is off, about 3-4 hours. If you have the screen or device on and it's doing anything, it's using some of that incoming charge, so will increase to 4, 5, 6 or more hours to fully charge.

Gets even worse if using an aftermarket charger, say a 800 mah or 1000 mah charger like the iPhone or Kindle charger...can then take 10-14 hours to fully charge, hehe.

It's funny how people say it charges quicker after a while, when that's not logical, you just don't notice it as much going from 65% to 100% as you noticed when it went from 15% to 100% the first time, hehe
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jvs60:
The xoom charges super fast, like from almost zero to full in around 2 hours. That's about all i miss right now
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bella92108:
Smaller battery=shorter charge, a 2 gallon gas tank is quick to charge too, hehe.... kidding.

But seriously, Samsung is bad with their charging. My Samsung Infuse and my Galaxy tab both take forever to charge.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] luigig:
Did I read it correctly that if recharged from almost 0 (e.g. <5%?), it takes only 2 hours to go to 100%? This seems counter intuitive.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bella92108:
I think someone has a bad battery
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] madsquabbles:
i think what happens is that as the battery calibration gets more accurate it finds where to quick charge and where to trickle in the appropriate levels.

Why not try returning the phone to the owner?
[EVO 4G General] vampir4997:
Maybe you should have looked through the phone and returned it.
[EVO 4G General] dsf3g:
Seriously. Drop the phone off at ata Sprint store. They should be able to track down the owner.

Reasons why you won't get help here:

a) you are too dumb use the search feature and created a new thread

b) you pretty much stole the phone. people who steal things are called thieves. most people loathe thieves.

c) you're from boston

Also, return the phone you asshat. Finding something and not trying to find the owner of it when you have resources to do so is considered stealing.

Did you really expect people to respect you or even help you? Im just asking. Just return the phone man these days a phone is usually a persons life pretty much. All my important data and etc lives on my phone. I've returned 2 phones in 6 months because I know if the tables were turned id want them to do the same. I lost my wallet a month ago with 500 bucks cash in it with all my credit cards and a KID (13 or 14) called me to return it. I gave him a 100 bucks for doing the right thing.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wifflepig:
I used verygreen's size-agnostic installer with my 8GB SD card, and put CM7-107 nightly on it.

I ended up with the boot partition of about 100MB, two android partitions (one 450MB, the other 1GB), and the rest being "sdcard", around 6GB as FAT32.

I'd really like to take the 1GB android partition (my system stuff, and where apps are installed) and kick it up a bit in size, taking space away from the SDCARD partition. That way i have more room for app installs, etc.

I tried using EASUS Partition Manager, and while it'll let me take space away from the SDCARD/FAT32 partition, it's not letting me give it to any of the "other" (linux/android) partitions - doesn't give me an option to resize it, once I have unallocated space available on the SD card.

Any ideas? This is Windows 7 64bit, btw.

[Droid Incredible General] glange65:
Well, like many of us Dinc users...we struggle with battery life. I could barely get my battery to last more than 8-10 hours of light use....even using battery managing apps, etc.

If you haven't tried the MIUI Rom....download the latest and give it a try. I've always loved MIUI...but the latest version added some really cool features. EVEN BETTER...MUCH better battery management. For the last 10 days, my battery has been lasting at least 24 or more hours of light use. 12-13 hours of mod to heavy use. I couldn't believe the difference, but the update to MIUI 1.6.17 is the only thing I've changed.

Hope this is helpful....

[Droid Incredible General] rfarrah:
Never flashed MIUI because of the Iphone look. Since I use Launcher Pro, though, maybe I'll give it a try today. In any case, thanks for the info on the battery. We'll see........ :cool:
[Droid Incredible General] fLaWx:
Been trying MIUI out lately and while it's a great rom, not being able to have the Swipe down opening up my notification bar is a feature I can't go without (case makes it hard to grab the top of notification bar). While I could simply switch to ADW for the feature, I feel using ADW takes away from the feel of MIUI.

In my experience so far with MIUI, the battery life seems the same as it was in CM7 (my daily driver), I average about 14-16 hours with CM7 running incredikernel

[Acer Iconia A500] woodie:
Does anyone know if it'd be possible to edit the back/home/recent buttons to be the same as the ones from the Transformer? I see in the Xoom forum someone mentioned editing the SystemUI apk, which I don't have experience doing (don't mind a tutorial if someone can point me to one). I'm on the 3.1 Acer_A500_3.019.03_COM_GEN1 release that was posted recently if that helps.
[Acer Iconia A500] Bec07:
What is so nice about them! Screenhot/pic?
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
Ya, I hate the Transformers version of those buttons. Much prefer Acers - which, I understand, are stock HC.
[Acer Iconia A500] bhageman:
Dexter's 3.1 ROM use the Asus icons.
[Acer Iconia A500] trevoryour:
I'm actually using this ROM and I don't like the ASUS icons. I tried fixing it using root explorer by replacing the APK file I found in the Asus forum and it would crash on boot forcing me to wipe.

Can someone post the file I need to make this work? A CWM zip file would be best since i'm weary about using root explorer to do this.
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
I edited my buttons about a week ago. It went smoothly though I didn't flash a zip file but rather replaced the png files in the systemUI.apk

It's pretty straight forward; I just used es file explorer and 7zip. If you're interested I can post a quick tutorial when I get back home.

Btw, you sure you want to change them to the transformer icons? They're pretty ugly.
[Acer Iconia A500] VitaZora:
+1 for a tutorial. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] NH2G:
It seem like a simple copy and paste, but a tutorial would be great.

If I were to make my own buttons entirely, would it be easier to do it this way or make it flashable. This seems easier though.
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
Completely forgot about getting back to this thread, sorry. Yeah, simple paste will do; rename the original systemUI.apk file just in case you want to go back to stock.

As always, you do this at your own risk, blah blah!!! Please read and understand what you are doing before trying this!

The 3 programs I used to do this: 7zip, ES File Explorer(on Tab) and Photoshop (You can use whatever you want). I have not looked into making flashable zips so this way was just easier for me.

1. Open Es File Explorer (free from market) on your Tablet and access settings options > check mark 'Root Explorer' and then check 'Mount File System' as writable.

2. Now within Es File Exp navigate to System/App/ There you will find the file you need to mod named 'SystemUI.apk' Copy it by long pressing on the file and select copy.

3. Now that it's copied, place the file somewhere on your sd card or anywhere else so you can copy it to your computer.

4. Once on your computer, Use 7zip right click and 'Open Archive'. The files you want are in res/drawable-mdpi/ so now find the specific icons you want to mod and copy them to a place where you can work on them with your choice of graphics editor (ie photoshop). Note that the bottom icons are in sets of 2 (standard icon and pressed icon). The icons referenced should start with 'ic_sysbar...'.

5. After modding your icons, 'Open archive' on the SystemUI.apk again and simply drag and drop your new icons into res/drawable-mdpi/ (Do not change the name of the files!) The file is now ready to be put back on the Tablet.

6. Copy the modded SystemUI.apk file onto your tab somewhere you'll know where to find it.

7. Using ES File Exp navigate back to System/App to file your original SysemUI.apk rename it something like SystemUI.apk.bak so you can go back to it if you want to later. This should cause your Tab to crash immediately upon completion. Don't freak out!

8. Hold down the power button to reboot your Tab.

9. After booting up, note your menu bar on the bottom has disappeared. No problem just press your Apps menu in the top right hand corner and open up ES File Exp. Locate and copy your

modded

SystemUI.apk into System/App/ Now back out and reboot.

10. Enjoy your new icons.

If you want to go back to stock, just rename your stock SystemUI file back to normal and kill the modded one you made.

If any questions let me know. Hope you find it helpful!

[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
If you're interested, upload your SystemUI.apk and I can mod it for you. You would just have to follow the instructions on my previous post to install.

I also figured out the Circle Battery % in framework-res thanks to MagnusRagnarok (Thanks!).

If anyone else is interested, I can do it for them as well. Just let me know.
