I think even if you put any sound file if it is not coded to play at startup then it would be useless.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boboev:
Damn! Are you sure about that? :(
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
I am not a developer so I can't be sure 100%. Yet I have asked before on another post(sorry I can't find it) how to put sound on boot animation and it involves scripting which I don't know how.

Maybe you know scripting? The best you have to do is go to the overcome site and ask this.question there.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boboev:
Thanks, dude!

In fact I have asked this question in Team Overcome's forum first, before bothering anyone here, but since I got no reply for a couple of days, I decided to ask here, because I was sure that at least I will get some answer. And I wasn't wrong!

Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitar_east:
Hi there. I've searched around and couldn't find an answer, so if this is already posted please point me in that direction.

I'm about to purchase an unlocked Galaxy Tab originally from the Rogers network off of a friend. I'm with Bell. I'm one of the lucky few that have the unlimited data plan originally offered with the Palm Pre, that also works with Android.

My question is if Bell will realize that I don't have a tablet plan when I do the steps in order to make calls/sms working and block my device or change my plan. Does anyone have a voice plan that they've been able to use with Bell on the Galaxy Tab without them noticing? This is more of a precautionary for me, because I'd really like to keep my data plan and would be quite upset if Bell were to change it.

My reasoning for getting a Rogers Tab unlocked is my assumption that Bell won't have the IMEI for a device they don't sell, so it may be safer for me. Thoughts?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snake002:
i would like to know as well. im in the proccess of doing same
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hexwulf:
I use my Galaxy Tab as my primary / only device, which includes phone calls on Bell Mobility. I used to have Blackberry on a voice and data plan, and when I got the Tab and realized I wanted nothing else / rooted / flashed a useful ROM that supports voice, all I did was plug the new SIM into the Tab.

I haven't had any problems or changes made by Bell. I doubt they can see my device, or care, as I have called for misc reasons from the device. I simply never told them of the device change.

Now, my plan prior to the device change supported voice and data. So if your current plan does that I think you'll be ok.

In older versions of prime, I used to be able to use root explorer to remove applications from /system/app, and they would disappear from the tray. Lately, when I try to delete them using root explorer, they disappear when I hit delete, but they are still in the menu, and still fully functional.

I really despise having facebook on here (they just added it to the rom), and the other bloat that came with it, but not can't seem to remove it. Anyone know how?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mskip:
Have you tried using Titanium Backup to uninstall the app after you have removed it from the system/app folder?

Mark.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
It appeared to work using Titanium. Does this mean it may be a root explorer bug? I guess I'll try downgrading to an older version of RE. I am not a big fan of titanium.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
Tried a known working version of root explorer with no luck. I guess something changed in the rom or superuser which is preventing it from working properly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roach2010:
If you remove the app from /system/app also delete the associated dalvik executable file from /data/dalvik-cache. This should kill the app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
I tried deleting the executable file as well, but still no luck.

Turns out it seems to be more than just the apps, I tried removing the bootanimation from /system/media with no luck. It's like I don't have r/w access.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mskip:
This is probably a stupid question but did you make sure the folder was Mounted to R/W (and checking it sayds R/W at the top) via the button at the top of Root Explorer before attempting to delete the file?

Mark.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
It's ok, thanks for trying to help. Root explorer pops up a message if you try to delete something in R/O mode saying "... cannot be deleted because the file system is read-only."

It also seems to be working now, no idea why. Maybe a reboot did the trick. The files I remove from /system/app are now disappearing from the menu.

Still unsure on the boot animation though, is that still stored in /system/media/bootanimation.zip?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Yes bootanimation is still stored in /system/media/
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Yes but if you're on Prime 2.0.3, there's one in data/local

Anything bootanimation in data/local will over ride the one in system/media.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mskip:
Yes it is.

If you copy your new bootanimation.zip file to /data/local then it will look for it there first (before looking in system/media) and load up the new file. Tested it and it works fine using Root Explorer to copy the file across but just make sure the file is made specifically for the Transformer.

Mark.

Update both firmware

Pull battery to reboot

That is it enjoy.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bommeke:
I hope hope you guys can help me with my battery life. And yes it's another battery life topic!

The thing is, I've got a lot of problems with my battery:

My battery only lasts 10-12 hours when I barely use it. This is a lot shorter when I actually want to use my phone

In the top left corner it always says my battery is full even though it's not

When charging battery, the percentage goes from 70-75% to 100% instantly

The battery stats are incomplete. Since unplugging this morning the stats say it's on battery for only 9 min.

When looking at the app betterbatterystats the data is incomplete aswell.

When unplugging the phone the battery percentage stays on 100% for 1,5-2 hours until it counts down, fast. In Battery Monitor I can see it goes from 4982 mV to 4181 instantly

The things I've tried to fix it.

Setting brightness to lowest level

Reset to factory settings

Hardreset

Disabling Sync

Clearing cache

Clearing Dalvik cache

Clearing battery stats

Calibrate battery

Stock kernel with Lite'ning ROM 6.1

Speedmod T41 Kernel with Lite'ning ROM 6.1

Disabling HSPA

The strange thing is, these problems started occuring around 4-5 weeks ago. I first thought I installed some app which was killing my battery but reseting to factory default and uninstalling all app's didn't help one bit. Are there any more solutions I can try solving it myself or is it time to send the phone to Samsung (and thus having to do without the SG for 2-3 weeks)? Hope someone can help me with this.

Current specs:

Android version 2.3.4

Baseband version I9100XXKH3

Kernel version 2.6.35.7 hardcore@speedmod-s2-k1-t41

Build number Lite'ning Rom v6.1 XXKH3

Antivirus software?

sent from my cm7-ified epic
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pgar23:
As mentioned. Antivirus. If you have one running, it will detect the exploit and think it is a virus and will either block downloading the file or disallow you from running it. Pause protection on your AV.

Otherwise, I would re-download the latest one-click root method and try again.

If all else fails, use Odin to wipe it back to factory default then try again.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_UserX:
Hi Community,

i have a problem. My Desire HD has a brocken USB_Port. I tried to check the Akku. The Akku works on another devices but when i want to charge the akku on my phone nothing happens, either the LED. So the problem ist the USB-Host.

No i want to get the Stock ROM of Vodafone (germany) but i read some torturials and all of them need a USB cable to get S-On and more -.-

Have anybody a solutions how to get the stock FW without any USB-Cable.

I have many other ways how to get the stock FW on Sdcard (blutooth / dropbox) etc.

But no solutions how to get S-ON

I want to send my Phone to my provider to fix it.

Btw. Its the phone of my friend.

ThX to all of you :confused:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze599:
Hi, welcome to XDA :D

There is a way to get the stock firmware on the phone and flash it but there is no way to remove CWM or S-Off without the USB working. I'm going to send my phone back because of a broken USB port too. Mine however works if I push the wire down while its plugged in.

To get the stock firmware on, download Swiftp from the market (if you have wi-fi) and turn it on. Then download FileZilla on your computer and input the details. That way you can transfer files over wi-fi.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_UserX:
Hehe **** happens -.-

Jeah i read many things now about this problem. here in Germany its a little bit funny way with the warranty :-P

i´m @ work now but i try to connect the phone to PC at home again (now because the akku is now fully loaded) when nothing happens i will just put on stock Firmware and put hboot S-ON... but radio s-on will be tricky...

At least when there is no way to get back a radio s-on then i will be send it with s-off i hope they will accept it that way...

thx ;) and will be the good side with us :-P

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikiea:
Well I've been using Froyo 2.2 v23b and I wanted to test some roms.

I installed CM 7.1 and when I wanted to go back on the Ginger-DX v17 the first time was good and I replaced the official CM 7.1 kernel for the FXP 030.

The problem is when I had to reinstall the GDX rom for some bugs and now it gets stucked on FXP logo and don't run the rom but I still have acces to the CWM menu.

I attempted to put some kernels (stock version, CM 7.1 official and the FXP 030) but no one works

Would you guys help me?

Nice way to start posting >.< I'm sorry

You'd better go back to stock kernel, the FXP kernel is actually only for their Rom.

Because their kernels are not tested on other roms... I think.

Does anybody have a solution for this yet? While at work, I can only roam and only a few bars at that. I cannot enable ICS on my laptop as it's locked down, so ad-hoc to WiFi is not an option. I know in the past, there have been phones where internet-passthrough is an option.

[HTC Incredible S] jakeyo:
So far I've had no luck using custom ROMs as it just stays on the htc boot screen and does not work. I can confirm that 'MiUi' does work on my phone - however it is buggy and I don't like it.

I want cyanogenod or either android revolution HD but none of these work.

I thinkit has something to do with the HBOOT being 1.16.000, and the ROM version i'm after is 2.34.981.1 (virgin or optus branded) - am with virgin though in Australia.

I have a custom bootloader/recovery whatever you call it, I wipe the cache, dalvik cache and factory wipe, before installing all ROM's. I can't update to stock ROM either because there is none for hboot 1.16.000

So right now my phone is pretty much a paper weight until I can get it working again.

I prefer custom ROM's if there is any that work, if not I atleast want the stock ROM to work for now so I can use my phone. If someone can help me through the process to get it working it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[HTC Incredible S] nsg86:
Any luck? still unable to flash anything?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
If you go to the development section of the HTC Incredible 2 forum, attn1 has a script tool that uses the latest Revolutionary/Unreovked exploit to downgrade the ROMand HBOOT to a version that is supported by Revolutionary.

If you look at the script, it is pretty simple. You would just need to use an older Virgin Mobile RUU.zip instead of the Inc2 version. It looks like the 2.12.981.2 would be the one to try.
[HTC Incredible S] katu2006:
Hang on a second, how did you S-off the Hboot 1.16?

I thought you need S-off to be able to flash a custom Rom...

How did you install Miui?

Am I missing something here?
[HTC Incredible S] jakeyo:
Doesnt matter if you need S-ON or S-OFF, as long as you get permissions to access root files.

Someone installed a custom bootloader so I can install custom ROM's, and it just works.... apparently the radios are locked though.

So, another day gone by and my phone is still not working. I can use MiUi, but I ran out of data on my 3g sim and wifi doesnt work, so now I have no internet on it.
[HTC Incredible S] scoobysnacks:
I'm pretty sure no soff will cause the issues he is experiencing, though he doesn't seem to be listening
[HTC Incredible S] jakeyo:
no, you're all just noobs.

It was the boot.img, we swapped it with the MiUi then put back the original one, now it boots up on cyanogenmod7.1 and works completely fine.

Can access root files, can take screenshots, everything is normal.

and I have s-on.
[HTC Incredible S] scoobysnacks:
Yes im a noob that has been using android since 2009..

You seem like a supreme douche.

Weren't you the one who was crying about wanting to go back to his iphone lol
[HTC Incredible S] katu2006:
You're calling us noobs, but you don't even know what was done on your phone...

What's the following sentence supposed to say?

"It was the boot.img, we swapped it with the MiUi then put back the original one"

To get a custom Rom, you actually have to INSTALL it...To get the custom Rom installed, you need CWM recovery. But if you have HBoot 1.16.000, you can't have a custom recovery yet.

In less your "friend" did a downgrade of the HBoot to 1.13.000, it's unlikely that you have CWM recovery on your phone. Even so, to my knowledge HBoot 1.16.000 does a version check and won't let you downgrade it.

So, the question remains, how did you get CWM recovery on your phone?
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
This thread is awesome
[HTC Incredible S] jakeyo:
no, if I hold down power down and power button I see S-ON and HBOOT 1.16.0000

He typed in commands to give it root permissions, not sure exactly as he remote controlled my computer and typed it in. Then yes, he flashes CWM onto the phone then I installed revolutionary.

Firstly, I went onto the HTC dev site (created an account) and followed the steps to unlock the bootloader. In the end, it was successful, and once it's finished it will wipe the phone (AND WILL STILL SAY s-on)

So then the bootloader is now unlocked, and he did various commands in fastboot. My guess is that he installed CWM from there and it just worked.

at first, cyanogenmod would not boot, so he copied the (boot.img that is working) from MiUi and repled it with cyanogenmod's. The phone booted up and worked. Then he put it back how it was and it now works. Strange, but something must've given it a kick.

I'll repeat myself.

HBOOT 1.16.0000

S-ON

Cyanogenmod &.1 (stable)

Full root access

Need I say more to prove it?

As far as I know, I just cannot flash radios, which actually require the S-OFF....

sorry if I come across as rude, just a long day..
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
Talk to aftab565 he has the same hboot as you and has arhd running. Sounds like your phone was temp rooted and flashed and I would advise against letting people you don't know take remote access of your pc.
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
Hopefully it works for him I couldn't help.
[HTC Incredible S] jakeyo:
Just replied to his thread.

And I know I was aware. I had full control though (could press a certain key to disconnect the connection - and only gave a temporary password) He was only typing in CMD things to do with the phone that I've heard of before

(ADB shell, fastboot recovery etc) and in the end worked well. He said my job is done and disconnect himself, so good guy :)

Didn't take my eyes off the screen either.
[HTC Incredible S] itsbeertimenow:
You gotta give props to these guys for donating their time. Every day there's more talk about h-boot 1.16.0000 so I figure if devs want to keep devin there'll be a rev released eventually.
[HTC Incredible S] jakeyo:
I really appreciate the amount of work hes done, in total I recon he's spent about 6 hours trying to help me getting it to work.

Never left me by myself, he always helped me through every step and was always there if I needed help. I've now got CM7 thanks to him. If he didn't fix it, I would have a useless phone because I couldn't even put on the stock ROM because of my HBOOT im guessing (I did an OTA update to get 1.16.0000 therefore too new to download)

I think SOME of the custom roms do have support for 1.16.0000 and what you only need is the boot file from them to boot up your non-booting ROM then you're all good.
