Hourglass screen

Hey there, could anyone help me replacing this awful hourglass screen at boot?

Here stands, that the bootanimation lays on the splash1 partition.

But how do I build a new bootanimation?

The resolution of the U8160 is 240 x 320 but I don't know at all which file type and in which dpi the pic/s must be...

Thanks :)

Edit:

I made an .img out from a .bmp (how to (german)) and replaced the splash partition with "fastboot flash splash splash.img" but the awful hourglass screen is still there.

Sorry I'm kinda new to this all, I can't seem to find the fastboot files in the tools folder of the APK zip download (For mac)

For installing Clockwork on the device under Linux

Hi folks! I have discovered a method of flashing the bootloader on my U8180 via Linux:

First, get the Android SDK: developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (copy and paste it)

After that, get this fastboot archive, unzip it, and put it on platform-tools folder in the sdk: koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1/ (copy and paste it) Make sure that you get the linux i386 zip.

After that, open a terminal, and change the folder to the platform-tools and execute fastboot like at the beginning of the post.

Thanks for their attention

Hi! So i´m new in this android stuff, and i just have rooted the huawey with the Super One Click. As I tried tu install this CWM I dowloaded the VodafoneSmart.zip posted before, and extracted it. So now i must restart the phone is fastboot?? I press power+volume down and the hourglass appears and the phone initiates. How can I know if it has done this fastboot? Plus when i try to run the commands it tells me that APIsomething.dll is not installed. How can I work this around? Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vvskiies:
to boot into fastboot , hold down power + volume down for about 10 seconds (just in case) - it is NOT meant to boot up

you should ONLY see hourglass

if you have the android SDK, you can copy the APIsomething.dll from the \platform-tools folder into where your fastboot.exe is

worked for me.

Im sorry but it sounds right, what you did. all i can advice you to try ist start ALL over, first by rooting (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833953)

and then just follow the instructions given on the coredroid download, they are very detailed and unless you miss a step by accident (which was what i did) it should work.

and dont forget to give the first boot some time, it may take up to 15 minutes (sometimes even longer) but dont worry its just the first one!

good luck, and if you try please post the results, hd2 has left me down woth a few rooms a couple of times but in the end it always worked, even if it took many reflashes!! :)

So I was using my flyer all today, and around 5:30 I left my house to go to class. I put my flyer in my backpack, and when I got to class I took it out and there seems to be moisture under my screen. How the hell it got there? I don't know. There's no way it could've gotten wet at any point during my commute to class. I've posted some pictures so you guys can see what I'm talking about. Is there any way to dry it out that you know of? Is my screen ruined? I sure hope not because i can't afford a fix. :/
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
Ps, jar of rice is a given and I'm going to try that when i get home. Thanks for any other ideas :D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AF241:
Its not water. You device has been bent. Basically what's happening is your screen is getting pressured from the back and touching the digitizer panel or some other panel. I had this problem what I did is I placed the device on my lap held from both top side and applied pressure with my palm as if like trying to curve the device and it was fixed. make sure you don't apply too much pressure and break the device. I noticed mine happened because I kept the device in my back pocket and may have sat on it.

---------- Post added at 11:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 PM ----------

trust me no need for jar of rice. lol. initially i thought it was water damage as well.

well actually i thought it was humidity damage.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
Thanks! I tried it, and it got rid of half of it then kinda made it worse. Any other suggestions on how to apply the pressure so i don't continue making it worse? I'll keep trying.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AF241:
You have to get rid of all at once then it goes away. if its half gone and you stop it comes back with a different shape.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
No matter how hard I push I can't get it to go away completely. I'm afraid of permanently damaging it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AF241:
I felt the same when I was trying to fix mine but risked it. I might have have used my thumbs to swipe over the damaged are whilst applying pressure. Basically push air to the affected area so it stops clinging on.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
well..i've been trying and trying and it's getting to the point where my thumbs are starting to hurt from pushing so hard. lol thanks for your help i'll try again tomorrow or something.

That same thing just happened to me. Had it in my back pocket and I sat on it. I used a suction cup and placed it on the screen to pull the glass from the screen. Seems like the edge of the cup against the part thats touching works best.

I've had this problem twice, just wait a few hours and it's gone (at least that worked for me)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] SciFlyer:
I had the same problem once. I had it in my back pocket when I was testing out cars at an automobile dealership (sitting down a lot). It fixed itself in about 20 minutes. I think temperature has something to do with it too. I think it cooled off.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AF241:
You guys were lucky. I waited two days hoping it will fix itself before fixing it myself.

The suction cup worked flawlessly! i had to use a pair of pliers to pull on the suction cup because the plastic piece attached to it kept breaking off.. but thank you!!

As for damage to the screen, i've noticed that when i put my finger on the spot where it was bent or whatever and move the homescreen it will sometimes do this weird lag thing but it's not that bad i can live with it. just glad to have the ugly spot gone :D :D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ajc158:
They will repair it

I had the same happen, but with no significant pressure applied by me - the biggest issue was not the visible problem, but that the capacative layer went jumpy - sent it in and it was fixed under warranty - 5 days from calling to having a fixed device in my hands - it spent more time in transit than with HTC! I was very impressed.

I just put mine in the pouch overnight and it fixed itself.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Froschfinger:
Funny, funny, I thought it was something between the screen protector and the screen itself. I had the exact same thing when I had it in my back pocket for some minutes, no sitting down or anything, but it might have gotten a bit of pressure though. I was a lot scared when I saw it, but it just shrunk while I used it again, and with a SLURP (not kidding) it was all clean again in the end. Strange to hear some folks did make use of physical violence against their device to make it tidy again...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] emailpeter:
Hi fellow Flyer owners,

Same thing happened to me many times.

1. First time-was a very soft press, leading to forefinger sized patch, it went away by itself within a few minutes. No orange discoloration throughout.

2. Second time was more serious-had accidentally sat on it while on jeans backpocket (never do this, guys !!). It led to a double thumb sized patch with the same orange fringe discolouration that Gumby63 showed. I took to HTC Centre, they said "LCD Crystal had leaked out" leading to both the wet patch and discolouration. No amount of rubbing and bending will remove that. Unit was deemed defective.

They changed the entire unit FOC taking 3 days and all lost data. The new unit had a much harder glass, it will not show liquid marks even under very heavy finger pressing. (But do not sit or overly pressure it, might crack glass !!)

Conclusion: The 1st batches of Flyers have soft glass, where very succeptible to patch and leaks. Some of you could have gotten an exchange, others might have no problem yet.

My Flyer now has Part Number : P/N 99HML044-01 D

Its a 32gb 3G Wifi. The "-01" and suffix "D" could signify an upgraded display.

Guys, hope my information helps you.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] emailpeter:
Grumby,

I just relooked your pictures, it does seem you have LCD crystal leak. Could you take yours in and mention for a change to better glass version.

You could quote them my new P/N as safe measure.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Gumby63:
Well I fixed it with the suction cup, I'm not to worried about it seeing as my device still works perfectly (it doesn't do the screen jumpy thing I mentioned earlier anymore) but maybe if it happens again I will try what you said. I'm being extra careful now :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] goybs:
This happened to me 3 times. First time I had it in my back pocket. The patch appeared after a 10 min walk. Didn't sit on it. It went away by itself after an hour or so.

2nd and 3rd time it seemed to happen randomly. On the 3rd occurrence the flyer was just in my bag. When I took it out the patch was there again. After 2 days, it was still there so I decided to go to the HTC service center and have it repaired. that was yesterday. Now I need to wait 3 to 5 working days, hopefully not longer!

Update: I got my flyer back a few days after bringing it to the service center. Good as new! Either they replaced the casing or gave me a new/refurbished unit because all the scratches and dents are gone. =)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Ryno_666:
Same problem here was in my back pocket and I just left it alone for a while. Goes away eventually.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] obzbdc:
I have this happen regularly, I got used to keeping my tablet in my back pocket when I had the original Galaxy Tab which doesn't have this issue. As per the above if it doesn't go away by itself then a suction cup does the trick. As an aside if you are at work when this happens go and find your facilities people and ask if they have a floor tile lifter you can borrow, one of the suction cups on those works perfectly I find.

Edit: something like - http://www.cablegrommet.co.uk/product/double_suction_cup_tile_lifter/

I know this is an older post, but I found it linked from the Flyer Wiki page and thought I would chime in.

This has happened to my flyer a few times now after I forget it's in my back pocket and sit on it.

I've never had to physically twist it or use suction cups to fix this. I just place my flyer in the freezer for about 10 to 20 minutes and afterwards the pressure spot is gone. I always shutdown my flyer first and don't turn it back on until it has acclimated back to room temperature.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RamboDroid:
Broken record here but, same thing here it was in my back pocket but I never sat on it. I think it is here and slight pressure that caused it.

I had a huge spot 3 fat thumbs wide I sat it on its face and noticed each day it was getting smaller finally I realized heat was an enemy and put it in the fridge is shrank down in no time to the size of a dime I swipped my finger over it and it poped out.

From start to finish it was 4 days. Crazy and I can't notice any side effect from it.
