yeah im not going to use the OTA.

sounds like the same issues are still occurring with it anyway
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dyetheskin:
tried decompiling what u sent me,removed the cyan images placed the ones from synisterwolfs,compiled,signed and flashed but didn't work
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
You're not supposed to sign the apk. You don't even need to decompile. Just use 7zip to swap the images. Unless you're doing more xml edits.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dyetheskin:
one of synisters projects has more images in the animation than yours,didn't know what to do on that
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
Then you need to add or delete the lines you need to match the number of images in the animation xml in drawables.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
heads up stony this will work for froyo but its a little bit harder

1. Take your systemui.apk and decompile it

2. Navigate to layout folder

3. Grab "status_bar_tracking.xml" and open it up in your editor

(now for the fun).

4. Add to the first line - "com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView" add this ""android:background="@drawable/...anim.xml""

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView androidrientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/pulldown"...>

5. After saving that, navigate back into the drawable folder and add your animation.xml file there. (You may use the one here as a starting point, just modify for your needs. (Honeycomb goes 1 to 39 and starts over, Android goes 1 to 30 and back down again then starts over again.))

5a. Next navigate into the drawable/hdpi folder and add your animated images .

6. Also in the drawable/hdpi folder find and open up the shade_bg.png and status_bar_background.png with your editor and make it 100% transparent.

7. In values folder modify public.xml to account for all the new images. (See birgertime's thread for Public XML Helper tool, while the tool didn't give me a perfect public.xml it did give me a a basis to begin with and I only needed to change a couple of lines.)

8. Now it's time to recompile your apk , following all the usual directions with that.

9. Enjoy your newly created systemui.apk with a pretty cool animated background. new and fresh and unlike anything before. Now run on out and show it off to all your friends who own an iPhone.

FOR FROYO: Instructions are pulled word for word and I have not tested or tried. I'm assuming the steps are the same as above except using framework-res.apk instead of systemUI.apk

You need transparency hack enabled

Decompile framework-res.apk

Go to drawable-hdpi and make status_bar_background.png fully transparent with PS or GIMP

GO to layout and edit the 2nd line of status_bar_tracking.xml like this

<com.android.server.status.TrackingView android:background="@drawable/status_bar_background_animation" android rientation="vertical" android addingLeft="0.0px" android addingRight="0.0px" android addingBottom="0.0px" android:focusable="true" android:visibility="gone" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"

where status_bar_background_animation links to status_bar_background_animation.xml in drawable folder, there you set the images and durations.

Recompile, and that's it. Enjoy
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
Oh wow... That's a trip. But I don't think I'll go into froyo since its pretty much an endangered species. Seems like to much work for something that's not gunna last much longer.

But thanx for the find! That's pretty dope, wish I knew that a few months ago... HAHA

What is the difference between deoxidized vs oxidized ROMs for the samsung epic?
[Epic 4G General] Stoney60:
Oxidized is when you put a breath of new life into an old phone.

Deoxidized is when you suck all the life out of something.

Tongue in cheek
[Epic 4G General] Fire n mage:
Deodexed and odexed?
[Epic 4G General] vita10gy:
To end users (aka the non technical answer) you need a deodexed rom in order for themes and the like to work.

Help Can't Update OTA Gingerbread 2.3.4 Not Rooted Droid X2

I have been trying for a month no luck

no help from Moto or Verizon.:eek:

I'd like to get this update

See attachment this is what I get

when I try 2 Pull

Thank You
[Motorola Droid X2] reaktorblue:
You could always try to SBF and see if that helps. Applying a SBF is fairly simple, check out some of the guides on the forum.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
+1 to sbf comment

U could even just sbf straight to 2.3.4

Did u ever root before at all?(this phone that is)
[Motorola Droid X2] ImgBurn:
I 'd like to fix this problem of no OTA updated

No (No)

This is my first smartphone.

Got it mid-July

Thank You
[Motorola Droid X2] X0dus:
SBF is always an option, if you're comfortable doing it. It's nothing really.

So you jumped through vzw support hoops and they just leave you hanging?! I'd tell them you want it replaced w/ another for which the replacement will likely come w/ 2.3.4 installed. Have you tried taking it to a corporate store and ask if they can manually push it to your phone?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Have you attempted to update while connected.to wifi?

I've always updated over wifi...
[Motorola Droid X2] reaktorblue:
Have you done anything to this phone? Where did you get the phone? I only ask because if the phone came from someone else, perhaps something was done to it.

Many times people rename some of their files or uninstall some of the files, like fota and updater and it will fail to update. Aside from that, SBF is probably the most effecient way to fix the issue.
[Motorola Droid X2] ImgBurn:
Hi

I've done very little to phone purchased

from Verizon in mid July. Froyo 2.2.2 was

installed. Sometime in August updated OTA

to GingerBread 2.3.3 no problem.

Fastfoward to present I've tried for last

month no push and when I try to pull

always get same result see attached.

I just don't get it...
[Motorola Droid X2] reaktorblue:
Try checking this setting. You will want to make sure it's enabled and that you can make and receive phone calls.

Battery & Data Manager -> Data Delivery -> Background Data -> Enabled

If that does not work for you, you can also try to reset to factory defaults. This may fix the issue but you'll lose all your personal settings.

Undoubtedly, unless there is a hardware problem with your phone, which is possible but not probable, SBFing directly to 2.3.4

WILL

fix the issue. Again, you'll lose your settings and such but you'll have a fresh phone and you can move on to greener pastures instead of worrying about what is wrong with the phone.

You can find a very well written guide that will walk you through the process below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1317707

This is what I would recommend as you could spend hours, days, even months trying to fix your phone and still not find out what app or quirky issue the phone is having. Applying an SBF update sounds complicated but in reality, its as simple as installing a driver for a printer.

Simply plug in the device, run an application, point it do the SBF file, and leave it alone until it finishes. The guide goes into detail, including the resources you'll need, such as the SBF file, the Motorola Drivers, RSD Lite, and what to expect.

Even if you choose to continue troubleshooting, I would recommend reading the guide anyway just to familiarize yourself with how your phone works. In the future it'll make troubleshooting your phone a bit easier.

Hope that helps!

This looked like the solution crosses fingers

(Battery & Data Manager -> Data Delivery -> Background Data -> Enabled)

I was hoping as I had turned off my Phone to charge it. I though o yea

this is the problem. No such luck it was enabled. I'd like to try the

SBFing directly to 2.3.4 but don't you have to be rooted. I didn't really want

to root at this point with this issue of no OTA.

Setting to factory defaults looks like what I'll try but losing all my settings

ah. Is there any way to back up phone so not to lose all my settings

with out rooting.

Thank You

Thank everyone for all the suggestions

P.S. I was on the phone with VZ yesterday for 2.5 Hours

The Tech ended up telling me there was no update .

Last Update was 2.3.3 in August.

WoW Whats Up With That??
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
AH yes...the trusty vzw level one tech ;)

U better believe there is a 2.3.4 lol. I was in the soak test for it and the Motorola forum manager Matt announced it being released lol

Oh yeah. MAYBE u will have some.luck over there if u wanna try Motorola support forums before sbf route. Droidx2 forum manager Matt MAY(can't say he has ALWAYS been helpful) help ya out.

Aldo vzwsupport on twitter I find better than phoning them. Motorola also has tech support on twitter.

But u DO NOT have to be rooted in order to sbf.

not even a little bit lol.

if u WERE rooted sbf would make u lose that root.

Sbf rewrites your system partition and flashes the necessary files and "stuff"(lol) so that your phone is "factory out of box" condition. Root is totally NOT NEEDED to do an SBF.

U hook up to your computer.

Put ur.phone into RSD protocol mode and.use the rsdlite program u can download to ur computer(w/ necessary drivers) and flash the sbf file to ur phone.

pretty simple thing.to do.

Longest part really is downloading the necessary drivers and programs and files.

Go here to read a great easy to follow tutorial on how to sbf.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1317707

It has ALL the necessary links to downloads for sbf files, drivers, rsdlite program, etc

Everything u could need is I'm that thread ;)

don't be.intimidated by the lengthy tutorial. It is easier than u think.

PLUS if u have any questions or.need clarification u can post in that thread and someone knowledgeable will help you out.

or u can get on the #dx2 channel at webchat.freenode.net for "real time" help. Its an IRC(chatroom) for us X2 users. Usually someone is there who can help ya out ;)

ALSO please keep us updated on ur situation. If u find a solution PLEASE POST IT HERE...so that way others who run into this problem can.find the solution they need :)

Good luck brotha!

WTF

Hy guys,

Thanks for all your help & suggestions ashclepdia, reaktorblue

& X0dus. You won't, I can't believe this is what was stopping me

from getting update. I saw it before but reading it's description

I didn't think it would be a problem and I'd save battery

power. I had this setting checked (as you see in attached)

the second I unchecked it and returned to home screen update

was available.

WoW I spent hours no days with moto & vz level 2 tech's and

not 1 every went over my setting's. The level of incompetence

& misinformation from these 2 company's well they should hang there

heads in shame. Don't get me started I could write a book about

all the nonsense these 2 have put me through sense buying

this phone from vz in July 2011. Sorry For the rant.

Anyway I sincerely want to thank all you guys for your help

& suggestions. There's more talent in this post then vz & moto

L2 techs put together . This forum ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

P.S. So I guess if you don't want an update check this box .

Also New Rules corporate store only have salesman got

this from L2 tech & calling local store. Guess we know

there priorities.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Hahaha....I guess our android system is considered a "social application " in itself lol...

Good to see ya got the fix...and glad it ended up not being something serious.

Could u also add the word "SOLVED" to the beginning of thread title for others who experience this problem.

And yeah...I have been told by many people that I should try to get a job as a phone tech support since im always helping my friends/coworker fix phone problems Hahaha...and I still consider myself to be a "noob "to Lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TDm3732:
ok. i flashed using odin to root the phone but the jerk that wrote the thread said to check the kernel type at the end, i flashed "XWKDD_insecure" and the phone doesnt even boot up, after i press the power the phone details come up with a yellow triangle and it stays there, stuck....and its always like that

the phone is not mine and i dont want to lose any info

i know i can fix it with flashing some other kernel

PS: I am new to sgs2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Calling someone who wrote the guide that you followed a jerk isn't going to go down well. What guide did you follow?

Anyway, what's your exact model number?

Can you get into download mode (volume down+home+power) or recovery mode (volume up+home+power)?

Anyway, if you actually do have an I9100, follow [READ THIS] Got a Boot Loop? Don't post a New Thread!.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TDm3732:
No i dont think its a boot loop, the phone doesnt restart, and it doesnt go into recobery mode cuz i didnt even download it, i have an xperia arc , and i thought roothing was the same process, without knowing anything like kernel name, odin...... i simply followed his guide, but that is what i said, he wrote to check the kernel name at the last of the topic, so i tried almost every kernel for the s2 (official ones) and i had the same result with all of them, and then i decided to lose my info by flashing a whole firmware but odin doesnt flash it, it gives an error after flashing the boot.img file, no matter how many times i tried, its the same

The root was to flash a xkdd_insecure and flash back, but my phone didnt even start with the insecure kernel, it displays a yellow triangle with the device name written at top, and it stays like that
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khan012529:
i had smiler problem .. 3 months ago..;)

you can try this method if you want..

go to http://www.sammobile.com/

register with them. and download full pack old firmware.

flash it with odin.

make sure delete old (Odin) and use the one from firmware package.

and also delete cookies/cache's on pc/laptop.

Do just keep flashing kernels ..you need to get your phone back as working order. Then do experiment:D:D

this is how i get my SGS2

good luck..

I just started flashing ROMs to my phone and I do want to have the ability to run ROMS that have the sense UI. Every time I flash one, all these processes start crashing one after the other. I can never get to the homescreen. :/ Also, I LOVE the way the MIUI ROMs look, but this one process crashes every 5 seconds or so and it really gets in the way of using the phone. Is there a fix for this?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
I thought about failed eMMC, but didn't think the ROM would flash or boot at all in that case. It's possible though.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranhai:
have you verified the md5 sum?

done a full wipe?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Are you flashing the rom by itself or are you flashing anything else with the rom simultaniously before booting up? Like a theme, mod or kernel. Is always best flashing the rom alone, booting up, doing a nandroid and then flash anything else on top.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unhappybirthday:
Are processes crashing before you get the to the GUI, before setup is complete, or after setup is complete?

Incidentally, MIUI is not a Sense ROM and is part of the AOSP/CM family. It sounds like you have a problem that extends to both types.

[Desire HD Android Development] tahiriqbal:
This is a wrong forum to ask this type of questions, but now you have done this, let me reply you:

If you already have a custom ROM installed, then probably you have already rooted your phone. If this is the case, then you can download any Sense ROM from this forum and flash from Recovery. If you don't know how to flash ROM from recovery, then you should search the forum to find the threads which describe in detail various aspects of installing ROMs on HTC Desire HD.

Read first two posts very carefully on this thread:

So my mom disabled my text n 3g, can I just use a Verizon PRL for awhile and connect to those satillites? Or is my phone just blocked from connecting to anything?
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
Satellites are orbiting in the upper atmosphere, whereas cell towers are... towers...

And no matter how you try to circumvent it, texts will still filter through Sprint at some point, so you're most likely out of luck on this one. Wifi is probably the only option for data, but standard texts still won't work if they're blocked on your plan

i only laugh at this because i work for a verizon indirect company and i was gonna sell myself the phone..then i realized my loyalty plan means i'll get maybe like 2 dollars on commission off myself and it's not worth it because i don't get the 30 NE2 off right off the bat.....so i guess i'm ordering it monday night lol
