[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ikirt:
Thanks, that just might be the problem.

update: Thanks hawkxcore that did it. For others, in linux this is how I did it:

zip -0 bootanimation.zip part0/* desc.txt

* The -0 stores the files without compression.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ikirt:
Ok got some progress. Got the animation to load, but I need to shrink the images a bit, currently the zip file is 98M. So let me play with this tonight and I'll get it ready to post here tomorrow :)

Here's what I got so far, got it down to 13MB: http://mir.cr/TUZXFHB1
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] wrichards2009:
your transformer doesn't need to be rooted to install boot animations. I installed it on hers and her's isn't even rooted to this day.

You push it with adb - "adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

I'll upload some boot animations soon, I've become quite good at making them over the past couple days.

Anybody that is having trouble with their boot animation.. don't be stupid like me. I was taking the bootanimation folder that I was making them in and I compressed that folder. And I kept compressing that instead of just the contents (desc.txt and folder1), stupid mistake, but an easy one to make.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ikirt:
Has anyone tried this bootanimation ?

I'm trying to figure out how to add audio to the animation, but it looks like it requires a ROM tweek. If anyone has any information on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

CM6 and CM7 boot sound

I take no credit for this, original posted by

NUNsLAUGHTER92

[FONT=&quot]Well the first place I posted this was deleted (original CM6 thread by Isaac) so I've decided to post it again in a new thread because some people want to know how to do it.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]- Where the files are/go[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]build.prop - /system[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]init.local.rc - /system/etc[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]bootsound - /system/bin[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]android_audio.mp3 - /data/local[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]So you need to do four things to make this work...[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]1: Add these lines to your build.prop file -[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]### Safe to Delete: Start ###[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]ro.config.play.bootsound=1[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]### Safe to Delete: End ###[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]2: Add more lines in init.local.rc -[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]###Bootsound - Safe to Delete: Start ###[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]service bootsound /system/bin/bootsound[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]user media[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]group audio[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]disabled[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]oneshot[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]on property:init.svc.bootanim=running # to correct timing[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]start bootsound[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]on property:dev.bootcomplete=1[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]stop bootsound[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]### Bootsound - Safe to Delete: End ###[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]3: Add the file 'bootsound' from below to /system/bin[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]4: Add any .mp3 named "android_audio.mp3" to /data/local [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot](I'll attach one to let you see how it works, it's the droid sound that I used before.)[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Note 1: rename bootsound.txt to just bootsound, you don't want an extension. It won't let me upload the file without doing that.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Note 2: Add all of those lines to the bottom of the files. I guess you might not have to, but why not do what we know works.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Note 3: Make sure that every line of code that doesn't start with the "Safe to Delete" thing is all the way to the right because if not it won't work.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Or if you want to go the easy route here is one that's put together already for CM7. DO NOT use this with CM6 because of build.prop differences, there might also be other things that are different. There will be one made for CM6 soon.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Also, not flash-able either just move the files to the appropriate places. - CM7 bootsound[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Here are the files for CM6, again, not flash-able just move to the correct place - CM6 bootsound [/FONT]

Ok, so I'd say I'm a newbie with this rooting and ROM installing stuff, I've never rooted before.

I just got an HTC sensation 2 weeks ago, and my friend has a rooted Samsung Vibrant with a ROM on it, I forget what it's called. But she said now her phone can get apps only rooted phones can get, like one that makes your phone go faster or slower called ummmm, SetCpu. She said there are probably cool ROMs for my Sensation so I really want to root and get a ROM! So I has questions for youzzz :D :D

1. How do I get my phone rooted?

2. On a scale of 1-10, how hard will it be for me to root it having no experience.

3. How do I get a ROM.

4. What is a super cool recommended ROM?

Thanks everyone who helps me ahead of time :) :)

IMO, rooting is really easy. Just follow the steps closely so you don't mess it up and brick your phone :p.

You can find the ROMs at the development section. I'm using Leedroid and Faux123 Kernel and find that its really smooth and you don't really need to use overclocking apps all the time. Sometimes its not recommended and it may cause problems with the kernel. Hope i helped you to get started!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayJ-1974:
I don't consider myself a noob when it comes to flashing ROMs, I've been using xRecovery and Flashtool for some time now.

I have looked around XDA but can't find anything relating to my problem, if I have missed it please tell me and close this thread.

I have unlocked my bootloader using the_lasers SEMC CMD, I've flashed Doomlord's v5 Kernel and before that v4 with overclock but every time I try to overclock my X10 I get a WLOD?

Yes I know there was a warning in Doom's thread that the kernel my not work on all X10's but the warning stated that the device may not boot, no mention of WLOD?

I have tried both SetCPU and CPU Master to overclock but this always happens.

Is it me, am I doing something wrong? Making a noob mistake?

Or is this my X10 and a compatibility issue with Doom's kernel?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for looking, JayJ.

EDIT- Just to add I'm currently using Wolf's TW v5c but have also tried this on Z's CM7 with Doom's kernel.

Had no problems overclocking with the zKernel!

Swyped on my WB TW Gingerbread v5c X10i
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
Yes, overclocking can cause WLOD's. Either because your chip-set can't handle high frequencies or too much/not enough voltage is being supplied.

I, having quite a new x10 can handle overclock quite well. However, due to the default voltages that Doom has set in his kernel, my phone does tend to lag at high frequencies. I fixed this by modifying the init.d file that controls the voltages and set the high frequency voltages slightly higher.

What you could try, is download an app called "Incredicontrol" and experiment. Fist set the high frequency (MHz +) voltages up by 0.0025 each. Reboot, overclock a little, test, if it needs more, do it again, but be careful. Increasing the voltage by too much will most likely cook your CPU and render your phone useless. In other words, be gentle. Also try reducing the voltage to see if that works.

If that doesn't work, you most likely have the temperamental chip-set of death which is practically incapable of performing as a phone should.

Hope you can find something that works for you. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayJ-1974:
Thanks for the great reply, very informative and helpful. Appreciated!

My X10 is quite old now, I've had it pretty much since release. Also I always thought my CPU may have had issues because my CPU regularly maxes out and freezes the phone up, not so much since 2.3 but was a nightmare on1.6 & 2.1.

Swyped on my TW Gingerbread v5c X10i
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRuan:
Yes and no, the overclock itself can't cause wlod as far as I know, but what can cause it:

Fast overheat due to high temperatures, clock too high + voltage too high + high external or high battery temperature.

Defects on the processor.

The thing is, if you are on Doom's kernel and yet you can't overclock it past 1ghz try increasing the voltage a bit up to 25mv or 50mv on each freq at a time until you reach the correct freq/voltage.

At start my phone couldn't handle 1228 now it can using correct voltage settings(1400mv in my case)

But after downloading update in PC the update process stuck at 3% while flashing the phone. After an hour i removed cable and tried to do emergency update but it was still stuck at 3%.

I tried to flash KG5 with odin but it was also stuck at FSimage.I tried to download again.

Is my phone bricked or there is some way to flash it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mostyle:
Then you aren't bricked.

You'll need to reflash using Odin to what ever firmware you were using.

As long as you can access download mode you aren't bricked. It may be a little difficult to use odin if you never have.. But rest assured, you are not bricked.

I just rooted, followed the exact step by step.

After rebooting the phone, all works perfect apart from it's not not reading my simcard.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
[Xperia Play General] kanej2006:
I really don't see the point in people rooting their phones.

It ****s it up and does more harm than good.

My phone no longer reads simcards & has also magically downgraded from Android 2.3.3 to 2.2.2

Also just connected my phone to the internet to update to 2.3.3 as before and I get ''phone software update information currently unnaccessible.''

I also get crashes and force closes...

When using Sony Ericsson PC companion to update, I get the following message

''Update not allowed, the phone contains modified software that cannot be updated''

Now how will I update? What is the point in rooting if you cannot update software or do anything?

Rooting my phone has really made it worse.

Has anyone got any idea how I can get the phone to read my sim card as well as update to 2.3.3?

It was working perfect before the boot and now I have to use another phone since it keeps crashing, force closing and not reading my sim card.

Hopefully someone will respond shortly as I now have no phone to use.

When looking at the ''about phone'' option, it reads everything as normal apart from the baseband version which it displays as Unknown.

The Android version has changed from 2.3.3 to 2.3.2, how can it downgrade when simply rooting?

Awaiting for advice guys....

What I was trying to do was simply to get the apk or obtain the original 2.3.3 update for the Xperia Play from the internet but after many hours of searching I found nothing.

I was thinking if I was to reinstall the latest update of Android 2.3.3 it may solve the sim reading problem.

Could someone please give me a working link for the default standard 2.3.3 update for the Xperia Play?

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 08:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 AM ----------

Yeah, it is unlocked. The sim card that it's now not reading used to work just before rooting.

I rooted 100% as the instructions said, it seems the problem is something to do with the modded Disc Image file which is why I'd like to download the original 2.3.3 from Sony Ericsson, copy it onto my memory card and freshly update to the latest version of Android.

I'm sure this should solve the sim reading problem.

Just need someone to put me in the right direction & send me a link of a site/file hosting site that has the 2.3.3 Android.

[Xperia Play General] Dousan:
Don't use any official way to update your phone as long as your bl is unlocked. If you want to update OTA you need to lock your bl first according to blagus tutorial.

Use this guide to get the stock FW and gain root (included links for FW and flashtool). No need for a kernel as it's in the stock FW to flash with flashtool:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14547231&postcount=1

Before doing that lock your bl with this guide (you can unlock it again if needed):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14943322&postcount=1

It's very important that you start out with locking your bl if you use the root guide link I provided. If not you'll end up with a brick. You are safe to flash with flashtool but it's the updating with OTA (pc companion/SEUS) that'll brick it if you don't lock your bl first.

Regards Dousan...
[Xperia Play General] kanej2006:
Many thanks Dousan, I will take your advice & follow the links you posted above.

Now, to then re-enable the root, what is the BEST guide to follow as I don't wan't the have problems with it reading the sim card and not being able to update.

Thanks again Dousan.
[Xperia Play General] Dousan:
To gain root you just follow the first guide after you've locked your bl. First grab the flashtool from the first link (use the beta version 0.2.9.1), then lock your bl, then flash the stock FW from the first link, then use gingerbreak to root.

You're welcome, always glad to help.
