I wonder if anyone else in the forum has any ideas? This is truly baffling. Yet, I think I've made progress. I think the issue has something to do with the naming of the image files and how they are interpreted by the animation system. You see, I went and placed the characters "A_" at the start of the image names, so instead of being just a number like say 00050.jpg, it is A_00050.jpg. Guess what happened? The animation refused to play ANY of the folders. It would not even play the first folder and then stop. It simply did not make it to any of the images in any of the folders! That is truly a revelation.

So my next step is to use exactly the same naming convention that was in the stock animation and see if that will make a difference. will let you know what happens.

EDIT: EUREKA!!! That was the problem. WHAT YOU NAME THE IMAGE FILES MATTERS! So the solution is to use the same naming convention that was used for the stock animation. WOW, WHO KNEW? In my case, the boot files were named boot_xxxxx.jpg where the xxxxx were the sequential numbers of the images. Note that you can skip numbers too, but they will play in numerical order! I have researched all the boot animations I have used with this phone. And they have all worked. But they all used either boot_xxxxx.jpg or alcatel_onetouch_xxxxx.jpg. WHAT A NASTY ISSUE THIS IS. AND THERE'S NO DOCUMENTATION ANYWHERE TO WARN USERS ABOUT THIS.

Lynch, did you see my edit? I'm not sure if your app notifies you of edits to posts. Anyway, I figured out what was wrong and I've gotten your animation to work perfectly! Try the solution and see if it also works for you too. Let me know.
[Legend Themes and Apps] lynchyy89:
No I don't get the notification for edits, I will have to give it a try, although regarding naming I'm using the original xperia animation which was created by some one else and it works fine, it's also just named 00000 ect but I will look at trying your method on my one to see if it makes a difference

Thank you for all your help! Not many people would attempt to solve such a confusing problem :D

EDIT:

Just looked at my stock animation and although there are many folders the images are named exactly the same as the ones in my animation so I don't see naming being the issue for my phone :confused:
[Legend Themes and Apps] CVAngelo:
It's interesting that I had exactly the same problem you did when I used your animation zip. And the image names were the issue.

By the way, you remember you'd made an off hand remark about changing the image formats to PNG? It's quite possible that this could be a solution (Lol...funny that you'd have come up with it yourself) given the numerical names of the images.

Only reason I point this out is that I've seen a couple other animations with numerical names and they all were PNG format (well not all but the vasy majority of those zips).

Bottom line as you said...it couldn't hurt to try though it would clearly be a pain to execute. Yet, we learn from the experience.
[Legend Themes and Apps] lynchyy89:
I have a batch renamer so will be quick and easy :D yet to try the png zip, will transfer to my phone when I get 5 minutes to see if that works
[Legend Themes and Apps] CVAngelo:
Actually, I don't think you can simply rename the JPG files with a PNG extension. You have to load each one individually into a program like Paint and save as PNG. It's a pain as there tend to be so many files in these animations.

By the way, what is this batch renamer program of which you speak. How does it work? Is it an MS-DOS type bat file or what? I can see some use for this. Where can I find it.
[Legend Themes and Apps] lynchyy89:
I don't rename them I use FastStone photo resizer to conver file type from JPG to PNG and other way round, and I use a program called Advanced Renamer 3.65 to rename files.. Faststone does have the rename feature but I prefer the advanced renamer because its so easy and simple to use
[Legend Themes and Apps] CVAngelo:
Ok I get it. Thanks for the references to those software tools. Sound very useful. Let me know how it all turns out.
[Legend Themes and Apps] lynchyy89:
FIXED! was something as simple as just renaming the files! I decided to add image to the start eg: image00001 ect and eurika! It runs as it should :thumbup: I also changed folder names and carried on the sequence over 2 folders.. But thankfully it works! But Thank you for taking the time to help out, its much appreciated :)
[Legend Themes and Apps] CVAngelo:
Way to go!

Excellent! I'm happy it all worked out. Glad to have been of help. I knew if we stuck with it, we'd get to the bottom of the mystery. Man, hard to believe that it was something so simple. Who would imagine? So now we know. LOL. Hopefully our escapade of 2 whole pages here on this thread may help others in future.

Meanwhile, I've gone ahead and downloaded those two utilities you mentioned!
[Legend Themes and Apps] lynchyy89:
As I was always told, you'll never get anywhere if you give up at the first hurdle. And that's always the way that its something so simple that gets in the way, and excellent! Both brilliant and speedy pieces of software :)

Boot Animation not working

I have coolpad mi-496. I am trying to change bootanimation, but not succeded. This phone strucked on boot 2 times and I flashed it ROM downloaded fron xda. Thank you for the ROM. Kindly tell what to do when phone became soft brick like this.?
[Legend Themes and Apps] CVAngelo:
We can't help you unless you give more details! Please describe how you went about changing the boot animation. What tools did you use? Did you make sure you used image files of the correct dimension for your screen? What files in what directories did you change/replace?

Yes, you can easily create a bootloop or prevent your device from properly booting if you make the wrong changes in the boot animation. So we need to know what you did to help understand what caused the phone to soft-brick.

The easiest way to recover from a soft-brick caused by mucking with the boot animation is to backup your phone using your custom recovery BEFORE mucking with it, then flashing your backup immediately after you brick it! The harder way is to hope you still have access via fastboot and then replace the boot animation files you mucked with using the backups of the original files that you presumably saved.

[Legend Themes and Apps] flaxx187:
hey

i wanna make a bootanimation from sony until my lockscreen.

my desc.txt is

i put it in /system/media

premission (via root explorer)

read: own group other

write: own

other :

right on oktal is the number 0644 rw-r--r--

but is doesn't work

what happend when i edit the last two "p" from txt in "c" ?

or

i reboot my phone without some bootanimation.zip (i deleted one time)

could be the reason ?

haven't the "debug.sf.nobootanimation" in my build.prop could that the fault ?
[Legend Themes and Apps] Officeryanki:
I'm bringing this post alive again because it is relevant to a solution i found.

I don't know if the "actual" solution was posted earlier in this issue, but i'm to lazy to check.

So i had the exact same problem with my boot animation, and i figured out that my problem was in my desc.txt

the "p" represents the type of way we are playing it.

We have to replace it with a "c" so that it continues playing after the actual booting is done.

Hope this helps!!!
[Legend Themes and Apps] SpectorOfDeath:
Had this issue with +700 frame bootanimation.zip, wouldnt get very far at first.

I had to delete the poweron.ogg sound effect, it was somehow triggering boot completion.

After that it would get too about frame 250 but then phone boot would complete and it would stop.

I can confirm the above solution of changing

P into C

Does force the boot animation to play thru completly without a loop, i wouldnt do rhis with a loop for obv. reasons.

Anyways, i wamted too thank everyone, but special shout out for the answer that really got me what i needed!
[Legend Themes and Apps] ZG_DEV:
Heyyyyy

Can u test my boot animation?

It was made for oppo a5s (720×1520)

+ My original boot animation desc.txt has some arguments like (global , offsetx, offsety) and this is werid ( but normal because of the small pics of the original boot animation). So it is normal that my boot animation does not have these arguments except for ( width, height , fps )?

So tell me guys, wich is the best recovery for my Desire?

I just want to intsall the latest and greatest custom roms without having problems with mounting issues or script languages or so. what is the stablest?

So? CWM2.5.0.7 or CWM3 or even 4?

Or should i use amonra or some of the mods?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
I used CWM, but then installed AmonRA 2.0.1 - it installed everything for me (AOSP, Sense based, Miui).

But if you want to use CWM, I'd recommend 3.1.0.1.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipusz:
First, check the erasesize of your device: if it is 40000, then you can only use AmonRA. If anything other, it's your choice.

i have one of the first desires with amoled screen and the smaller erasesize.

hi there,

I have developed a SIP based voip application, I have a Server(Written in c# and two android client application(which is written based on the Native Sip Stack of Android 2.3).

The SIP registration works perfect and beside that streaming and playing of my voice also works perfect over WiFi network but when i switch my network to 3G I cannot hear the voice(the SIP registration works without any problem).:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

I trace the network, and I found out that stream passes my 3G network, but the android clients cannot play it, and one more thing that I tested was that If I change one of my client from android to a simple c# desktop application, even in 3G network everything works fine(it shows that my 3g network does not have any problem) and streaming and playing the voice works without any problem.

please someone help me how can i hear this stream which is created by Native SIP Stack in a 3G network?

I don't really know if I can help, because I am an aspiring developer just like you and from what happened yesterday with me, probably going to be a while till i ever leave noob status, but I did take lots of programming courses and I can try to take a look at your app and stuff, but I can't guarantee I can be of any help.

If you can send me a source or something to work with, I can try to look through the code while checking out the reference pages and see if I can get it to work through 3G. Btw, can you also give me a detailed analysis of your problem and what the logs say when you try to run the client on 3G?

If you also feel uncomfortable about sharing it out in the public, you can send it to my gmail (jojojohnson7410@gmail.com) and I can work with you lots over email/pm with this. I might not have as much experience, but I have the learning capability and the time. Plus, this might help me in my endeavors by allowing me to work with more codes that will give me a familiarity with coding apps (i've worked lots with java, but not really with android). Let me know what you think about this idea! =]

[Android Software Development] asadi.alireza:
Thanks for your response mate :)

It does not have any problem to share my app with you, but before that I've done something that gave me a hint:

I tried to capture the network traffic of my client and gathered a dump file including the packets has been sent/received in my client, and opened it with wireshark, hopefully I noticed that RTP packets have been captured in this file and also I could play the stream using wireshark telephony, so it means that transferring of stream works fine but probably my android client cannot play it.

I also attached the SIP/SDP packets have been captured in my android client :
[Android Software Development] V.A.T.Juice:
What voice codec are you using? I use SIP calling alot and know that there are only a few codecs that work with 3G speeds. Also some carriers block SIP calling on network.

Thanks for reply mate,

I use PCMU/8000,PCMA/8000, GSM/8000,AMR/8000, all did not work,

and also as I've mentioned in the previous reply, I received RTP packets but cannot play them, it means that my carry does not block them...

Any help would be so appreciated...

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrtorrents:
I tried but didn't help
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcrazy11:
This could be happening for 2 reasons... Apparently your phone is getting confused by which update to download.

1) Did you unlock at any point with Chevron? If so you probably didn't check off all the languages. If this is the problem just look for the Microsoft approved walsh fix, very easy to find.

Then restore your phone to the version before it was provisioned for mango and apply the walsh fix. VERY IMPORTANT CHECK OFF EVERY LANGUAGE. Then restart the mango process and people have posted that this should work.

2) If, like me, your a registered developer and still getting this error then unfortunately I've only been able to find 1 fix. Microsoft is working on correcting the problem but has said it will take a couple weeks. So on to the fun part. You need to flash your phone back to factory form. Flash not reset. You lose everything. Good this is your purchase history, contacts and calendar should be attached to your live id, if not you might want to sync them.

To flash your rom just search these wonderful forums to find it. All I searched for was "flash focus rom" and found a thread with the files and instructions were in the files. Once your phone has been flash you should have no problem updating to mango although you have to go through all the original updates and re install and set up your phone.

Hope this helps... it worked for me.

Thanks for reaching out to help me but I think I will give up now. I did all what you told me.. I read from other places even before you responded but it still didn't work.
