loved the white skate set, i have wanted a boot screen like that since i got my phone.

Thanks, Champion :D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Whiskey103:
Hai Mate,, great idea.

I will link to here. ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] GuestK00388:
It's been my experience so far that they are of the same format. If anyone wants to correct me though they're more than welcome to :p If you switched bootanimation.zip to downanimation.zip and moved it from /data/local to /system/customize/resource it should work as you've said :D

Haha, thanks very much much! :D It takes me back to my early Android days when I first saw my phones bootloader and was convinced I had just bricked it or something to that effect! :eek:

Thanks Whiskey! :cool: I've clogged your inbox with multiple 480 x 800 .gif files, let me know if I've made any fundamental errors so they can be corrected a.s.a.p.! :p

Wow, these are really nice, thank you :D

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] l3zawi:
Guys !! .. Can I use these boot/down animations & splash1 for the bravo desire ??
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] GuestK00388:
I had a quick look in the Desire Themes and Apps forum and a lot of the splash and boot images that are floating around are 480 x 800 just like these! :D

If you're feeling adventurous safest bet would be to make a backup in recovery and experiment. I'm not familiar with the Desire ROM folder structure so I can't vouch for the flashable zips but if you extract the bootanimation.zip and downanimation.zip from the archives and place where your original ones are I don't see why they wouldn't work! Good luck :cool:

Attached are a few ideas for the next sets which are in progress! ;)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Software Guru:
Looking good :)

I'll defo be loading the Mario variation that you are working on
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] GuestK00388:
Thanks Mate! :cool:

It won't be anything too complicated, he'll just jump around a few times and then vanish down a green pipe! :p

I was contemplating a Sonic one as well, thinking there might be more demand for the retro games :D
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] GuestK00388:
No problem at all, twas a pleasure! Let me know if you need any more done in the future! I'd be happy to get around to them whenever I can spare a moment :D

Thats great thanks but can u help me i search the Honeycomb boot down and splash animation for ARHD 6.1 !
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] GuestK00388:
he_stheone64 has a Honeycomb theme which is far beyond anything I could achieve and might be of interest to you!

Honey HD

If you're only looking for the animations and not the full theme download Honey HD and extract the boot and downanimation.zips which can be found in the following folders;

data/local/bootanimation.zip

system/customize/resource/downanimation.zip
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knightsofwar210:
Okay here are my phone's specs:

Here's when the problem started then I'll explain it.

I was trying to install this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=751031

But when I did it said something about CM 3.0 doesn't support a certain kind of script so it aborted.

My problems:

When I turn on my phone it says that the Wi-Fi calling has stopped

I had it set so my phone would vibrate when I press the home bar buttons.

Every time I try to run the Wi-Fi calling ,it stops.

I have it set so when ever I press a button on the on-screen keyboard it should vibrate but it doesn't.

Thanks in advance.

If you need logs then I can get them, just need to tell me where they are.

EDIT - Also, the LEDs on my phone never blink, not when I have an email or text message, nor when I charge my phone. Is this just a limitation with CM7? Or how do I fix it?

Also, I realize that CM7 drains batteries pretty quickly, if you have a suggestion for an easy to install ROM/Kernel that is great at saving batteries, but keeps ADW, and most of the customization options available in CM7, do share.

Thanks again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knightsofwar210:
Also it seems that my phone is stuck charging at 57%

It's been there for a few hours now.

UPDATE -

I have it now so that the phone vibrates when I press a button with the on screen keyboard

It is charging past 57%

The home bar buttons still do not vibrate even though I have it set so they do.

UPDATE -

The video recording is very choppy. I took a video yesterday and it wasn't this choppy.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knightsofwar210:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willp2:
Ever since I updated to Mango RTM on my Focus, I've been getting an odd 3 beep alert when when I get an email while on the phone.

So I'm talking to someone, an email comes in and I get a series of three tones while on the call. It's like 2 short tones and a longer third tone. Getting an alert about new email is pretty normal, but the 3 tones is annoying. I keep stopping the converstation to wait for the bings to stop.

Is anyone else having this issue? And anyone know a way to get this back to normal?

Thanks!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:
Ok for last couple of days i've been trying to play movies on my x10. I've tried many players from the market and so far the results are:

Stock Player: Couldn't start/play any of the file.

Arc Media: Sorry, this video cannot be played.

Soul Movie: This video cannot be played! Please contact to the phone maker!

mVideoPlay: Sorry, this video cannot be played.

QQPlayer: Starts but wouldn't play anything (Force close when trying to go back)

MX Video Player: Starts well, loads subtitles and goes on for 5-10 mins with a little lag (which is fine for me) then starts to lag like hell and then video goes out of sync.

The video I'm trying to play is a BRrip, resolution is 1280x528 and is in mp4 format. (HD music video's I've downloaded from youtube seems to work fine with any player which is in same resolution) Some other movies in .avi format and lower resolution would play in some of that player but lags like hell.

NOTE: I've tried to set different settings of different player such as hardcoding and softcoding but they didn't work.

Any suggestion guys??
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
So only that BRrip doesn't play? You say youtube vids are ok...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimcr7:
Try Vplayer Pro, it works smoothly in my phone, so far i havent meet lags when playing any vids.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadows.X10i:
Ough..BRip in MP4..you mean in MP4 extention, isn't it..:)

Try to convert it to 720p resolution and change the Video Codec to Mpeg4 H264..;)

Can't play coz the resolution is not support by the player/phone..I guess..:D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runaway_bunny:
No need of any conversion buddy, install mobo player from Market. Its free app. It actually plays anything u throw at it. Using it for over five months now. Plays even youtube .flv HD files flawlessly (Make sure the resolution is 720 or less). All the best...:)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaunbu:
Convert it to the same res as the x10, rather than letting the x10 do it on the fly. Your bound to get better results.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seriouscorps:
Try Mobo player. Plays any format and supports subtitles in .srt format. It would be nice to have option to change audio tracks in dual-audio files but at least works flawlessly.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:
Ok guys I tried mobo player it works, I mean it plays the file but it lags and gradually goes out of sync. This time the file was even in lower resolution. But convert seems to work fine. Now im gonna try different movies in different resolution and check which works and which not. Then I'll let u guys know. But in the mean time can u guys suggest me some good converter for x10? And the settings for those converter. I use Avs converter but its slow as hell.

Oh and guys I'm on cm7, just so u know.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
MP4 is a simple format and can be easily played on our x10 on 720p(1280x576,1280x720)

MKV is used in Blu-rays now a days...

It can have many audios like a movie in 2 languages...

I play it in my x10 dual audio 720p...

The main thing is use doomkernel and overclock to 1228Mhz in interactive mode use MX video player.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:
Sorry if it sounds noobish but how do I use doomkernel and overclock in enteractive MODE?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:
I've found doomkernel to flash but can u link me to overclock?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
I'll never understand why people want to watch 720p on a non-hd device. It's only eating up your resources.

Whether or not you can play videos depends on bitrate mostly but there are other reasons vids won't play. Just because 1 720p movie works doesn't mean they all will.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimcr7:
Use cpumaster free from market to overclock and underclock.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
It probably gives the best quality and i dont want to convert videos for hours...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:
Its not just one vid man, all the HD vidz from YouTube r running butter smooth on my device with any player. Its juz some movies um having problem with.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] darkmuck:
I recently bought this battery: http://amzn.com/B002MRA8FQ

However, it doesn't seem to last longer at all compared to the stock battery. I thought that maybe I needed to drain it fully and then recharge it the whole way before it would work properly, but I noticed that it was reporting 1% life left for a good hour or so before I gave up trying to drain it. Is it possible that the battery life isn't being detected properly since its not the stock battery or is there something else going on that it lasts exactly as long as the stock battery?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] OzGurKan:
as i read the article, it doesnt apear to be an original LG battery...did u ever thought that batteries are not all about XXXXmAh? More is not always better :)

Think of cars... an american car(ex Ford Mustang) has an 4000cm3 engine producing 200Hp . Subaru has an 2400cm3 engine producing 300hp

But i could be wrong :)

Cheers !
[Optimus One, P500, V General] JanusMagus:
You can try wiping battery stats
[Optimus One, P500, V General] darkmuck:
How do I go about wiping the battery stats? I'm using the stock rom BTW
[Optimus One, P500, V General] JanusMagus:
You need a custom recovery (root your phone first)

You can gohere if you are unfamiliar with these terms
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dr.Alani:
You can do it without custom recovery if you are rooted. Use either Battery Calibration app or Root Toolbox app. Both available in the market.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deniso177:
ye market has a few tools to calibrate your battery for you
[Optimus One, P500, V General] darkmuck:
calibrated

So I've rooted and calibrated the battery... but it seems that it hasn't changed anything. It is weird that an extended battery twice the size of the original lasts exactly as long (or less) than the original battery
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DeBiasoMan:
Charge your battery to full, 100%, then wipe battery stats, and allow your battery to DIE. Then your problem should be fixed. i went through the same problem, i bought a special battery with better battery life and my Optimus t, running at 806/480 on smartass governor can run for about 4 days without dying, and thats with constant use :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dr.Alani:
Can you post a link to where you've got this battery from?

Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DeBiasoMan:
I bought it used off a website called craigslist for about 50$
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kphenix:
mah DOES matter!

Battery life is dictated by the mah and how you use your phone. It sounds like the battery you received is defective which happens when you buy them from sites like ebay or amazon. Is there a return policy or warranty on the battery? You should definitely get more talk time and standby time with an extended battery.

It is a common misconception that you have to let the battery drain all the way. These are li-ion batteries which prefer a shallow discharge. Meaning, they prefer to be charged when they are at about 25% capacity.

Best of luck to you!:D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Turducken:
So true. The closer they remain to fully charged the longer they last.

Do you have the desk dock? If you do, plug it in, and go into productivity mode. There is an app drawer there. Go to the market, and install your launcher of choice. Actually, if you do voice search, look for a launcher pro apk. That'll work too.
[Motorola Droid 3] chiraag:
anyone got a solution? please help.. even i am stuck at the same spot... dont know what app's i need to RE-install...

thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] :
If you can get to your dialer (I had to use the Visual Voicemail setup to pull it up, then when it closes back to setup accounts, I held down home to get to the recent apps screen, select dialer from there) use the mic button to access voice commands. Say "go to market" it will pull up market. Download a different launcher, and then when you hit home, it will give you the choice to go back into Setup or your new launcher. Go to the launcher. You can take it from there...
[Motorola Droid 3] leobg:
Was the phone rooted? If so - did you remove any apps from /system/app?

Gtalk w/ video pulled from the OTA leak...

So, according to dincodee's post on the thread below, we should be able to pull the gtalk version from the leaked OTA update and install it over the existing gtalk installed on our phones along w/ tossing the file 'libtalk_jni.so' into the system/lib folder.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1243421

I haven't tried this, I'm in the process of downloading the update on my phone since I'm at work right now.

Update: I just tried this and it worked just fine without any issues. I haven't actually tried a video call yet since I'm at work. I will try and report back later.
[Motorola Droid 3] hennbc:
so i tried pulling the apk and the lib file. everything installed fine but when i try to video chat it instantly FCs =[
[Motorola Droid 3] PyroHoltz:
Did you have any issues copying the libtalk_jni.so file into the system/lib folder? That folder requires read/write priveleges.
[Motorola Droid 3] hennbc:
no problem at all. did it straight thru root explorer
[Motorola Droid 3] PyroHoltz:
Not sure what to tell you, I haven't been able to get a force close while video chatting. Does it matter who you video chat with or all contacts?
[Motorola Droid 3] hennbc:
nope its with everyone. once i hit the video button it the app resets.

did you change the permissions at all?
[Motorola Droid 3] nosaturn:
wooooooo. it worked! extracted the files and put them in dropbox. used ES File Explorer to copy the files to the right spot. Opened the Talk2.apk so it installed and boo. now i have all the camera options. no one to video talk with tho :(

nosaturn on gtalk
[Motorola Droid 3] PyroHoltz:
I didn't change any file permissions. I'd say you may want to double check your file paths again.

Good day to all of you.

I extracted the following files from the D3 update, tried it on my XT860, works ! Didn't get to video chat, but I assume that it should work.

Download link :

https://www.sugarsync.com/pf/D6768596_8_704484461

Content :

- libtalk_jni.so

- Talk2.apk

Installation :

- Renamed both original files to .bak.

- Copied Talk2.apk to /system/app/

- Copied libtalk_jni.so to /system/lib/

- Rebooted (just in case)

This might not be necessary, but I've set permissions in Root Explorer for each files to :

[Verizon Droid Charge] thelandon:
Devs... Can you take a look at Adrynalyn's media_scan_fast.zip file and see if it'll work on the Charge? Just like the Fassy, our media scanner is really beginning to annoy me.

[WARNING!!!] Do NOT flash this zip file unless you are a Dev and know what you are doing. I have NOT tested it on the Charge and have no idea if it'll work. I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Will the same hack work? Yes. I don't use it thought as it caused problems for me with other stuff. After a few reboots, I'd have Gallery items go missing, or ringtones, and I'd have to delete the .nomedia files and restart to get them back.

The hack is just creating a .nomedia file where you don't have any media that you want/need to have scanned. I haven't looked at the zip yet, but if you took it directly from the Fascinate, you'd just need to edit the updater-script in it slightly to work.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thelandon:
Thanks imnuts! Yes, this was pulled directly from my old fassy. I tend to save zips/roms/kernels that work well on my laptop in the event that an updated version breaks something.

? though... did this cause problems for you on the fassy or the charge? It worked perfect for me on the fassy.

I have rooted my rogers phone the UK way and am wondering if i want to install some custom roms/cm7 do i need to unlock my bootloader? I am a noob......there is so much information on this site....bear with me and my questions.
[Xperia Play General] captain67:
Flashing a stock ROM such as the generic doesn't need an unlocked bootloader because it uses stock kernel, and doesn't need a custom recovery. That's why you can just use flashtool.

CM7 uses a custom kernel and needs recovery, so you need to unlock the bootloader.

[Wildfire General] tomnten:
Should I use rom manager or recovery to restore a backup, which is easier
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
I prefer Recovery. Used it many times, and no issues. I don't think anyone is more difficult though, both are equally easy.
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
If I'm not mistaken, it is said that you best restore a backup with the recovery version you have taken it with.

This is a thing you should think about only when ROM Manager uses a different version of the Recovery than the one that is really your recovery.

So if they are different, I think you should use the one you have taken the backup with.

(correct me if I'm wrong!)
