I have that problem too.. I have FroyoBread 23b and i CANT change my bootanimation to BIOS boot animation for xperia x8..

It not working
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] DeFcOn:
froyo bread have 2 bootanimations named bootanimation-cm6.zip and bootanimation-cm7.zip! you need rename bootanimation.zip to bootanimation-cm6.zip and bootanimation-cm6.zip and replace it!:)
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Baronen:
I know but it dont work . Please help :/
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Dare-Devil Inside:
Place it to data/local

is your desc.txt correct?

Dark red is resolution

Dark Green is name ofthe first folder that plays just one, lime color is name of the folder that loops

"30" is fps.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] goonsquadx8:
it is correct the desc.txt (for xperia X8 its "320 480" without quotes) also the folders are correctly named and the zip file is in /data/local with the right permissions aswell.

using "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local"

all that i end up with is a quick boot logo then black screen until the keypad for pin code comes up.

Here is the bootanimation file btw: Bootanimation.zip

UPDATE: saw now it said "part1" and "part2" in desc.txt even tho i didnt type that, so i changed that, pushed file and still same same but lil different =/

Btw ive searched all over XDA and i found a post that said it can be placed inside /system/customize/resource/

is that correct is it it way way waaaay off ?
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Baronen:
Yeah we have tried alot off stuff but nothing helps. So please someone help us !!
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] doixanh:
Problem is your desc.txt

You need to use linux to edit it (or any editor that doesn't use CRLF for separating lines)

Don't make separate lines between the data.

Attachment may help.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] codfreak:
I used the Text Editor in Root Explorer, but maybe the problem is, that the bootanimation.zip has to be a store-only-zip,compressed ones won´t work
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] goonsquadx8:
Thanks for help dx, tho it went to a complete black screen as before.

im using ubuntu 11 on a virtualbox inside wintendo btw.

no idea why this dont work as intended but curse the one who ever gives up, through hard times you learn :D
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Dare-Devil Inside:
Use notepad++ (or Linux :D )

Use STORE method when creating zip.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Nikkopt:
@Baronen, I'm responding to your PM here so i can help others too.. the problem with the animation you sent me by PM is that it's compressed.. When you pack it you need to be sure that the compression is set to "0" or "store", depending on what program you are using..

quoting goonsquadx8

This happens when the desc.txt has an error or is malformed.. As DX said, you need to use a specific editor, notepad won't do it.. You can use notepad++ but you have to configure it so it treats text like unix.

PIC: http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7074/notepadj.png

Some other tips:

Always convert your images to 256 colors

Don't use more than 12/15 FPS

Try not to use the native device resolution (320x480), even with low fps the animation will get slow.. take the ones on froyobread for ex, they are slow because the images are at 320x480 (yeah i will fix them when i have a bit of time)

EDIT: goonsquadx8, just saw your desc.txt file, you have blank lines between the arguments
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] goonsquadx8:
First of all im a married man with wife and son, but at this moment in time id frigging kiss ya and hug ya and then make wheel carts for about an hour.

thanks to you and doixanh it is properly working now, i used 0 compression and the desc.txt and its working now.

Hello

this bootanimation:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1064611

not working on my X8 with Froyobread 23b..

First i tried to put the two same folders named

bootanimation-cm6.zip

bootanimation-cm7.zip into system/media

then i rebooted, nothing happened..

then i get back to system/media and i removed the old

bootanimation-cm6.zip

bootanimation-cm7.zip files..

then i rebooted.. i see there is change! >>>

>>> I see android orange logo .. Then i see ,,android´´ logo..

Then i go to Xrecovery.. custom zip. and i install the x8-bios-boot(updated).zip

and reboot and NOTHING.. still the suck orange logo android.

HELP ME PLS! :(
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] sandy4everyone:
I usually put my animation in the media folder in froyo bread and it works...only thing I do is make a copy of the zip file and will name the two zip files bootanimation_cm6.zip and bootanimation_cm7.zip....and will keep these both files in system>media folder....

when making the animation I usually takes the dimensions of the picture around 256x256 pix...also in the text file I write 320 480 as my resolution...this will help to stretch my pic to full screen......
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Baronen:
Okey thanks everyone it works fine now :D!!!!

XDA is the best
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] sandy4everyone:
I have edited you file and now its working in our x8.....

copy both the attached files to system>media folder...

make sure no other zip files is there in media folder other that these two...(I mean delete old animations).Restart your phone....hope it works for you!!!....take care:)

Orange logo will come...after that animation starts...
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Denoo:
I tried your guide and that happened:

Sony ericcson logo

Orange android robot

,,android´´ logo

NOTHING WORKS :(
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Nikkopt:
Are you sure that they work? I haven't tried them but i noticed that the desc.txt files have blank lines between the arguments and i'm not sure if android likes those filenames... For ex, you named them xxxx_280x420.png and i think that the number sequence "xxxx" must be at the end of the name, although i can be totally wrong :P

Anyway, one thing you can do is to reduce the color number to 256 and those 3MB files will drop to half a kilobyte :P
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Dare-Devil Inside:
I had similiar problem when I was creating boot animation for Froyobred.

Use some file renamer to rename pics

It should be like this:

boot_001.png ---> boot_100.png (it always have to be three-digit number 001, 002, 087, 122)

separator must be _

name can be anything, as long as numbers order are correct

desc.txt must have 3 lines, no spaces between them

USE STORE METHOD WHEN CREATING ZIPS (otherwise it won't work)
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Nikkopt:
Actually the file names can have as many digits as you want and the desc.txt file can have as many lines as you need ;)
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] sandy4everyone:
I copied the file which I attached to my phone and checked.... it is working....Only problem is that animation will start after the orange logo...I don't think there is restriction regarding the position of number, I mean the "xxxx" can be anywhere only thing I feel is Android don't like spaces in the name of the files...To save space converting the images to 256 color will help a lot, I admit that ...Take care :)
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] sandy4everyone:
Have you tried with the files attached by me....??
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Dare-Devil Inside:
Depending how much folders do you have in it ;)

[General Questions and Answers] JustAJ:
some info first:

- have a Samsung B7610, also known as Omnia. Custom ROM on it, don't know a name or something anymore due to the fact I flashed it on a long time ago. OS is Windows Mobile 6.5.

- in the Samsung a micro-sd card of 8 Gb

- and a Asus TF101, more know as the Transformer :p

- for those interested: laptop is a HP 6730b. Came with Vista, installed W7 Ultimate 64-bit on it.

A while ago I lost the connection cable of my Samsung Omnia, and since the price for such a stupid cable is €5 or €6, I still don't have a new cable. (Dutchman eh :p )

Now I want to root my Transformer, described at AndroidRoot.mobi, but you need to have a SD-card plugged in the Transformer. Thing is, the Transformer doesn't pick up the SD-card. I tried formatting the SD-card in the Omnia, but that also doesn't work. My laptop doesn't have a micro-sd slot, so Im currently a bit out of options.

My laptop also doesn't recognize the sd-card while it is in the Transformer.

Im currently on vacation, and I really don't have a clue where I could buy a connection cable for my Omnia.

The SD-card works in the Omnia btw.

It's a complete book I typed, but it comes down to one question: anybody has an idea how I could format the sd card? (a)

This may not be the place to put this but I need a favor. I am trying to set a pic that I edited with picsin as my wallpaper. I have a problem though, the pic is too big to fit. I have tried resizing it to a smaller size but it blurs it. So I guess what I'm asking is, can someone please resize this pic for me so that it will fit as my wallpaper without it bluring?! Thanks in advance!!!
[Hero CDMA General] slimshade4545:
there are free programs to do this if you search google ... you just need to change the size in pixels, it should fix your issue
[Hero CDMA General] babygirl17_06:
I have tried a few but they all pixelate or blur it. I will keep trying though.
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
The picture's dimensions would work more for a lockscreen than a wallpaper. Its tall and not very wide, so unless you use ADW or another home screen launcher that allows you to disable "wallpaper scrolling", I don't see how you can use it.

That being said, the picture's dimensions are also spot on for it (320x480). Tell me how many home screens you use and I'll try to make it into a wallpaper for you :)
[Hero CDMA General] babygirl17_06:
I am using Go Launcher ex with 7 home screens! Thank you so much!

[Hero CDMA General] babygirl17_06:
Ok that is fine! Thank you so much for doing this for me!!!
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
I can shrink it a little bit if where the top gets cut off of the wallpaper bothers you. Look at the screenshots I took to see what I mean.

Disable wallpaper scrolling after applying the image: Menu > Preferences > Display Settings > [uncheck] Wallpaper scrolling

It is perfect!!! Thank you so much!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Araho:
So I had my GS2 fully charged last night. At about 415am I played Game Dev Story for about 30mins and went to bed. I wake up this morning at around 1030 and find my phone completely dead. Obviously this freaks me out since I just got my phone and it should not be going from 100% -> 0% in 5 hours of being idle. Now maybe I didn't turn Game Dev off properly and it was running in the background? I don't know. I got this phone last Monday and this is the fastest it has died. (Even setting this one aside, I'm extremely disappointed in the battery life). Also, I plug it in to charge after I found it dead this morning and went back to sleep. Wake up 2 hours later at 12pm and see its only charged to about 40% and the phone is really hot.

Are these normal for the GS2? It didnt get hot during previous charges (atleast I didn't notice it getting hot). Also what is the average battery life for the S2 and how long does it usually take to charge from 0-100? For some reason I feel like there is something wrong with mine and I should be exchanging it but unfortunately I did root it so undoing the whole process will take some time since I'm still waiting for the jigg.

I finally hit low memory on my N1 with only 20mb left I already moved all the apps to SD and clean cache and history. Now the question is does rooting solve this problem and how much more memory do you get ? (depending on the rom) Is there any solution without having to root the device? Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Rooting by itself won't give you anything. You need to root and install A2SD or any other similar program/app, including a kernel that supports it and repartitioning SD card - and only then you'll get more space.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuljit55:
simple fix

i had this prob back in the day, what you got to do is go to apps2sd see which apps are unmovable then search for hacked modded versions which allow moving to sd. most updated versions of software allow this. i know a web site where u can get loads of modded apps2sd apps but am not sure if am aloud to post it here

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Scratch0805:
Use go contacts...... has a dialler with themes and there is also go sms to match.

#Edit# Sorry didn't read properly incoming and outgoing, I can't remember if go contacts changes that? Try searching the market for call screen, I used full screen caller I'd for a while but it was a bit buggy.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] B3!CrAZy:
all of you are answering to wrong question ! i already have GO sms, go launcher, go contacs...i want to change the screen when you dial the number and you have "bluetooth" "end call" "something" button .. are we clear now ? :) i dont know how to explain another way..
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Scratch0805:
First you said call screen (the screen you see when you're making/answering a call)and in my #edit# I pointed you in the direction of full screen caller id an app that changes the call screen!

Second the only way I know of to change the dialling screen in cm7 is to try a different theme with theme chooser. You can find themes on the market or on here.

Only other way I can think of would be to change the image in your system folder using root explorer, if that is even possible, I don't know as I've never tried to do it, I used cm7 for a while but then went back to sense as it suits me better.............Try doing some research!!

Also i don't mean to be rude either but a simple no thats not what I meant but thanks for trying to help me anyway, or something along those lines wouldn't go amiss now would it...... Manners cost nothing!

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] ArbiterGR:
Sense (and sense based roms) use their own framework so i guess getting a call screen to match it is a no go. I guess someone "could" create a custom call screen but on our wildfires with the limited resolution and stuff? who would bother:P

you are right, BUT ( ! ) someone maybe would ! :) :D
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] B3!CrAZy:
and what if i would change the Phone.apk from /system/app for another phone.apk from maybe different ROM ? would it change the "call screen" ?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] dark_fighter:
No, I think that this will just change the default dialer, so it will be the same as if you just changed the app through the system normally...

I've been flashing roms and whatnot for a couple years now but never really gotten a firm understanding of this: I know it is advisable to have a full charge when flashing a rom, but what about flashing, say, a radio, or a kernel?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhesus98:
I wanted to report some feedback on installing RevolutionRom JVQ. I have been most lurking so didn't have posting privileges to post in the development forum under the release.

I have been experimenting with various ROMS since I acquired my Vibrant last July. I installed Revolution ROM Beta 2 and was blown away by both the speed of the system but by the great battery life, the best I have tested to date on any ROM.

I was very excited to install the final version released yesterday.

From RevolutionROM JVQ beta 2 I updated with CWM with the both wipe and non wipe versions. The end result was boot looping.

I returned to stock using ODIN and tried again with the same result (From stock -> rooted, installed ROM manager and flashed CWM to ROM, installed wipe ROM version).

I returned to stock and used ODIN to flash the Final version with GB bootloader. This booted properly but I received mail forced closed message.

From this I finally installed with CWM the final version without Wi-Fi calling. This seems to be working properly without any noted difficulties. I'm still restoring apps with titanium backup but so far everything is working without a hitch.

I noticed that other users have posted similar results. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16147594&postcount=92

ali1276, I wanted to thank you for this awesome release. You may however want to reevaluate the wi-fi calling versions of your ROM. I think there's something wrong that's causing the phone to boot loop.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ali1276:
So you flashed the wi-fi calling one. Ok, I will probably fix and repost it today.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhesus98:
Problem with system rebooting

In comparison with the JVQ Beta 2 the final Revolutionrom update 2 is constantly crashing and rebooting. Happens either while phone is on standby, playing music but has also happened in the middle of a call. I don't think the BT issue has been completely resolved with update 2. Sometimes it requires a reboot to get it to work, sometimes event that doesn't work.

I flashed back to beta 2 which in my opinion seems to be working a bit better. BT works from initial bootup and I'm not experiencing any system crashes.

I think I have identified a bug on the dialer (in the JVQ beta 2).

when you use the dialer to call a number you have stored on speed dial, lets' say you press 3 and dial instead of dialing that number a window opens that says:

"USSD code running....."

then an error window appears:

"Connection problem or invalid MMI code. "

If you dial the same number using the contact or just dialing the numbers the call goes through normally.

Despite these glitches, I love this ROM. It's fast, great on battery life. Over 50% at the end of a busy day. Not sure I have seen that even on stock firmware. Hope these glitches get ironed out.

Is it my imagination or do apps that use my wifi connectivity seem snappier when the data network mode is deactivated (from menu after long press on power button)? It seems like they are pulling the data faster. I am wondering if they stop to look at 3g/4g before going to wifi when data network mode is activated?
