Is there possibly a new custom SCI boot anim coming in the next release?

Would you consider adding another little tweak "disable wallpaper scrolling"

For those using stock launcher (like myself) it's meant to improve the speed.

I found this but not tested:

Decompile Launcher2.apk

Navigate to com/android/launcher2/Launcher.smali

Search for the following line of code (currently line 1975):

mul-int/lit8 v5, v3, 0x2

edit to below (change to 2 to a 1)

mul-int/lit8 v5, v3, 0x1

Save your changes , recompile, navigate to Launcher2\dist.

Unzip Launcher2.apk

Pull classes.dex Add these back into original Launcher2.apk, add to update.zip, nandroid, wip cache/dalvik, flash, Done

Original mod by Sampson

Looking forward to testing the advanced auto brightness tweaked levels ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hmm, is the stock launcher not smooth?

anyhow, will see if i can regularly make an addon with a special launcher version.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
It is smooth but by disabling wallpaper scroll, scrolling between homescreens is swifter.
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
i've done a new boot anim but it only loads part0 for some reason....then goes blank....I'm having the same issue with new blackice one....dont know what I'm doing wrong and it's pissing me off :(
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
just as a side note:

you can e.g. use just pictures. it is a gallery app that offers also a live wallpaper that can switch through different wallpapers. it can also deactivate the scrolling as it is done by the life wallpaper.

it is a free app.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
sounds strange. mind sending it to me. maybe i see the obvious ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
http://www.multiupload.com/0LEWXY9AHQ think this is the dl...let me know what you find out.....
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
all pics are broken except for boot_001.png, boot_004.png.

and these two look the same as on the previous bootanimation.zip you send me yesterday.
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
broken? how can you tell this? maybe if I can work out how they're broken I can fix it??
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
very simple: i opened the zip and tried to view each image and only the two above open. for the rest i get an error.
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
Strange....Got it working now so here you go :D......Hope this is OK....But again I'll keep working on it as I'm not sure I like the flames really.....

SCI Miui Boot Animation http://www.multiupload.com/6M9Y59WEDC
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
It's not bad, but then again I couldn't do it so cant really complain :)

As you say the flames dont really do it for me personnally, I reckon (if possible) the SysTune logo with the clogs turning as it boots up would be pretty cool and certainly more personalised to SCI & SysTune creator a user.

Only my thoughts, wish I had the capability to try it myself but talentless!!
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
Yeh I was actually going to do this haha....But have had limited time today....I'm still trying to find the perfect version and will keep on going till it's done :)
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Good man, dedication to the cause.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i have to go now but i took a short look at the pics. the idea with the flames is nice but i don't like the flames look. also the font for the systune text looks a bit to girlish :D

in general i prefer a more cleaner look not with so many different extravagant fonts.

I checked out the pictures, not the animation yet but its looking good.

Happy u took my idea and made it work ;)

SCI keeps getting better and better.

Btw am liking the tweaked brightness levels.

[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
now with this you are dragging me over.... :D

this looks very promising. but i can't tell what but i ahve the feeling soemthing is missing. but it looks already great. not yet seen animated only looked at the pics.

i like the font for the SCI MIUI. it is relaxed and fresh but still elegant.

@djcsurf: glad to hear you like the brightness levels. they are still work in progress. if i feel a moment it is to dark or it could be more dark i tweak the actual level a bit. now at least you have starting point and know how to do it yourself.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
guys, if i may say this...

do not buy/support nvidia at least not for mobile/tablet devices.

i don't know if you guys heared about shadowrun. it was first introduced with ingame trailers running on the next nvidia tegra3 kal-el. they also made a port for tegra2 which has just been released. this game redefines the top of graphics on mobile games.

i bought it and look what i experienced:

seriously, i am so pissed about nvidia.

[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
use a different theme as i do.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Just had a reboot so I could check out the SCI boot anim and its pretty good. But phone reboots so fast its hard to anaylse it constructively.

What would also be cool is a similar image for splash screen instead of the bright white HTC one.

can the gears look be made a bit more realistic? they look a bit too clean and like a toy (well not so bad as it sounds :) )

does anybody know how to add the splash screen during flashing the rom?
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
No Idea......Someone out there must know.....Can't you flash it to current ROM then steal the segment of script and put it in the new ROM??

HAHAHAHA My poor sense of programming never fails to amuse me!
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
as far as i know the splash screen is not part of a rom but part of the bootloader. though i know there is a way to install it when connected to pc. not sure if this could be done during a flashing of a rom.

anyhow, next version will have your bootanimation. will see how the feedback is ;)

Much improved gear tooth shape. Looking a lot better now.

@a user: I think a lot of native English speakers wouldn't know what involute meant!
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hehe.. i sucked so bad at english during school. i improved though a lot during my university time... literature for informatics, especially theoretical informatics and papers are all in english ;)

anyhow, gonna upload a new addon. a user from miui-germany asked me to port a modification used on sense roms that allows waking up the phone by pressign the volume buttons. i modified android.policy.jar of my rom to include it.

see addon section in a couple of minutes for details.
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
Pressing volume buttons to wake up the phone is allready in rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
ok. it's in the addon section now.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
Oo

is there a setting for it? cause it doesn't work. and i checked the code the volume buttons are explicitly / hardcoded to not do this.

edit: if this would be the case without the option to disable it it would be the first thing i would remove myself. i do not want this.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
lol i just found it in the settings.... haha how funny.
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
On my rom the volume wake up is working. You can enable it under system/button settings/volume rocker wake and im using miuiandroid's base.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Volume rocker wake up not working on this rom unless u need to reboot for it to take effect. Not tried rebooting yet.

Sent from my pukka fukka SCI MIUI
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
no idea. if it doesn't work i maybe keep the addon.

hmm, i wonder if the 4wya reboot mod or so did substitute the right file. gonna check that out sunday.

May be actually. I'm on 1.10.21v0.5 without the 4way reboot mod and here it works.

Hello people! I'm quite new to the miui but is it possible to have it on Portuguese?
[Desire HD Android Development] theLofD:
No.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
actually yes. there is http://www.miui-pt.com/

if you want to use my rom then you must look there for a language pack, not the whole rom! and i could tell you how to modify the pack to work with my rom (it is easy to do so).

look there if you find a language pack and if so give me the direct link to it so i can look into it.

edit: theLofD is right ;) i am currently not cooking the multilang pack due to problems with apktool/aapt and time issues. but i can help fixing existing language packs for my rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] shinaipt99:
Thanks! I will look in to it
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
you can also transform a whole rom to a compatible language pack but there is a bit more to change. in worst case i can show you how to do this.
[Desire HD Android Development] shinaipt99:
I sent you a private message :) I now have a rom running so... is it possible to flash a language pack?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
which rom? mine?

as i said, go to the miui portugal site and look for a language pack and i tell you how to make it compatible.
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
I think a good idea is to (optionally) flash a bmp as splash screen from updater-script (aditional to bootanim).

I think it may be possible to flash a splash without using fastboot, directly from recovery. Our splash1 partition looks like is /dev/mmcblk0p19

I read the raw data and converted back to bmp with nbimg (http://dev-host.org/?op=my_files&fld_id=138)

I tried to directly push a new .nb image directly to the partition with just dd, but looks like there's something missing as I don't see the image on next reboot.

Any ideas?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
no sorry, no idea. and not the time to play around like you did. but maybe ask madmax82. he may have an idea and is a kind guy.

you know how it is when you have an app, a rom, a job and a girlfriend/wife... you barely find time to pee. at least i don't have children oO

but considering the changelog they did made some big changes to the volume settings. maybe you need a full wipe to fix it.

Tryed to full wipe but still no sound. wil try miui.us and see.

MiuiAndroid is working just fine :confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
wtf. i wanted to give you a "thanks" and it tells me i am limited to 5 thanks per day Oo
[Desire HD Android Development] hawkwind:
No worries mate it is you who desrves the thanks anyway, your contribution to the forum with sci/systune and advice goes way and above.

The thanks is all ours :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
wow, i feel flattered....
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i cleaned up my boot scripts with optimized settings. removed useless stuff and changed others to fit my current settings and findings.

only difference to my own used settings will be powersave_bias being set toonly 50. the reason is to ensure smoothness for everyone. 150 should be also smooth for everybody but to be 100% sure i set it to only 50 as default.

everything else will be tweaked as i am using it currently set via systune on my device.

so if anybody of the other devs used my settings set via scripts: they are out dated for quite some time ;) next release they are updated.

p.s. at least till now none of my tcp/net tweaks are affected by this.

Found what was the problem with no sound. It was aicbootfix.apk wich i removed from rom. Then i tryed to put it back in and the sound was working fine. Wierd!!
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
this is indeed really strange. 1.10.21 is working fine without aicbootfix.apk and due to the cm7.1 base it was to be expected. why suddenly they they need it now again? i hope not that this implies it needs the old aic fix back in the kernel?

did you tried with lordmods kernel making a call and then checking if there is a drain?

despite lord clockan saying that it is enough to play music to trigger that drain i only got it when ca call was using the dsp chip.
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
Tryed to make a call, but no drain and without aicbootfix.apk there is no sound.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
well, guess we have to live with that, using aicbootfix.apk again. but i will try it on another release if it is still needed.

edit: but somehow this gives me a strange feeling. i hope the known 50mA drain is/was not related to aicbootfix.apk
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
Battery drain is back!!!!!!!!!

Oh well, looks like sticking with .21 another week, at least it's a pretty stable build.
