[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
Listen, I apologize for not only myself laughing at your question but also the negative responses and little help you've received on your topic in general. Seeing that you've only posted 6 times, all of them being in this thread, the members of XDA must look pretty mean. However, I can assure you that XDA is a very helpful place. It's just that a file called "DirtyFriend0" is pretty kinky sounding...

I searched the web for quite some time to find out the origin of this file and only came up with one result seen here. Which is what I'm guessing is what you mentioned earlier by the other "guy asking about the same thing but no replies." I'm sure the file isn't causing any issues and I would suggest you just leave it. Still if you feel that you must, deleting it probably wouldn't cause any issues either. It's your choice.

Hope you don't hold a grudge against the members of this forum. These guys are really helpful! Its just that the file in question has a pretty odd name that was just asking to be made fun of...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sugartibbs:
Same here, I looked and googled, but clearly its a .bak file, it could be a harmless youtube vid. if you want my advice usb the file to windows and use it to read the file in text or video, it could be a ringtone, but i dont know how it would be filed that way. that could help

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
Don't even bother feeding the bastard anymore. Apparently he's obsessed with that file. And YES we do help people here on XDA but with relevant problems, not goofy unknown files that ONLY your daughter has which has absolutely NOTHING to do with the phone performance.

I mean this is the Q&A section so yes, you asked a question and nobody knows the answer. Then you get bent out of shape and start insulting members saying "I can't believe no one knows what this file is". C'mon man, apparently it's a null file since you're the only one in the free world asking about it.

Just sayin'

Ok...by request, here's a pretty simple boot animation porting/converting tutorial. :)

IF THE BOOT ANIMATION YOU'RE TRYING TO PORT IS FOR SMALLER SCREENS:

First off...if the frames are too small, it will look crappy and stretched. That being said, try to find something that is remotely close to the 480 X 800 screen size...or resize each individual frame. If the frame size is somewhat close to 480 X 800, then all you have to do is change how the boot animation is being read in the desc.txt file.

- Unzip the boot animation you're trying to convert

- Open the file named "desc.txt" in notepad

- Change the screen size to your desired size

EXAMPLE: If the desc script looks like this...

[B][COLOR="Red"]400 700[/COLOR][/B] 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

...then change it to this...

[B][COLOR="Red"]480 800[/COLOR][/B] 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

- Click save (do not change file name)

- Now zip up frame folders and desc.txt file

- Make sure you use "store" compression method

- Now double click on zip and delete the file named "Thumbs.db" from all of the frame folders

OPTIONAL: I like to convert the frames to a format with a smaller file size. If the boot animation consists of more than 150 frames, and are in .PNG format, chances are your boot animation is going to be more than 5-6mb. If you've resized the .PNG frames to a bigger size...then you'll end up with a 15-20mb boot animation. If this is the case, just convert them to .JPG format.

IF THE BOOT ANIMATION YOU'RE TRYING TO PORT IS FOR BIGGER SCREENS:

You can just alter the desc script if you want, but if the frame size is alot bigger (tablet sized), then you'll need to do the following:

- Unzip the boot animation you're trying to convert

- Re-size all frames in all frame folders to desired size (TIP: "PIXresizer" will resize multiple files)

- If making a portrait boot animation, you have to rotate all the frames

- Open the file named "desc.txt" in notepad

- Change the screen size to your desired size

EXAMPLE: If the desc script looks like this...

[B][COLOR="Red"]500 1200[/COLOR][/B] 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

...then change it to this...

[B][COLOR="Red"]480 800[/COLOR][/B] 30
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

- Now zip up frame folders and desc.txt file

- Make sure you use "store" compression method

- Now double click on on zip and delete the file named "Thumbs.db" from all of the frame folders

TO SPEED UP/SLOW DOWN FRAMERATE (animation play speed)

If your boot animation seems to be playing too fast or too slow, then do the following:

- Unzip the boot animation

- Open the file named "desc.txt" in notepad

- Now, change the framerate

EXAMPLE: Change the two digit number after the frame size to desired framerate...

480 800 [B][COLOR="Red"]30[/COLOR][/B]
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

That's it! Enjoy

so i unlocked my titan with chevron and touch xplorer won't install and neither will sound enhancer, i get the same error message off of application deployment, any remedies? and also tube8 installed but won't load
[HTC Titan] uiqjirka:
For some applications you will need interop-unlock - the applications(explorer,registry editor etc) "reach" too much inside in the system.

Sound enhancer is already a part of the system - you will find it in the Setting
[HTC Titan] noelito:
are you serious? sound enhancer is already there? the same thing happened to my mango hd7 and i had to manually sideload the xap onto the phone, I will check settings

its a shame about touchxplorer, i miss my custom notification tones at least i have screenshot app though
[HTC Titan] uiqjirka:
Yes,Sound Enhancer is really a part of the system and now it is "hidden" in Settings of Mango. .. it is not installed as a drive under the icon in the applications ´list
[HTC Titan] noelito:
I can't find it in settings where is it exactly?
[HTC Titan] uiqjirka:
Europe version HTC Titan

Setting(system)

scroll down - Sound Enhancer
[HTC Titan] noelito:
It is not there and I have the euro titan, what other settings is it next to
[HTC Titan] uiqjirka:
Looks like you have skipped some steps when you started the phone for the first time and the HTC applications were not installed.

There is no HTC Titan without Sound Enhancer.
[HTC Titan] noelito:
wow it is not there in that location on my euro titan hmm, i wonder how i missed it in initial set up
[HTC Titan] adesonic:
Yep, sound enhancer is on mine too. I have also chevron unlocked my titan, I have installed the battery status app which is fun and useful.
[HTC Titan] noelito:
oh em gee its not there on mine, dang what can i do
[HTC Titan] noelito:
send the link to access from zune?

can someone send me the link to access it on my phone from zune marketplace?
[HTC Titan] evilpuppy:
how do you manage to unlock your titan with chevron?? using earlier version of chevron unlock tools or paying $9 for the unlock?
[HTC Titan] noelito:
i paid $9 for the unlock and it makes me wonder if it's a "ghetto" unlock lol, because i can't load somethings onto it, like touchxplorer, tube8, or sound enhancer, and coincidentally touchxplorer stopped working on my mango hd7, and yes other titan owners say they have sound enhancer on their phone, at least i have screenshot, battery status and phone reset
[HTC Titan] cemtex:
Ive been trying to install the battery app, it says it has installed it with no errors but its not on the phone, did you have any problems with it?

what battery app was it u used?

thanks
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
Yes, i have just unlocked it. $9, no pain at all, unlocked under 3 secs and it limit you to 10 apps, the new SDK prevent to install anything regulate to modifield the system

Tube8 doens't run, i suggest you to use IE Private Browsing Mode if you want to enjoy the moment for yourself only. LOL.

Sound Enhancer now is on the setting, i can confirm that.
[HTC Titan] noelito:
I don't know why mine is missing and I really don't want to reset the phone sigh

[HTC Titan] noelito:
I will submit some screenshots give me a few minutes
[HTC Titan] noelito:
behold the missing sound enhancer in my settings

behold the missing sound enhancer option app
[HTC Titan] SuperSport:
Depending on what app you used to install the XAP, I know of one that will Uninstall the App BEFORE re-installing the XAP. Maybe it uninstalled it, then never successfully completed the re-install?

In reference to missing Sound Enhancer...
[HTC Titan] noelito:
i used the application deployment program on my pc to deploy sound enhancer but it was came up as an error message and the same for touchxplorer same type of error message and then i found out that everyone else already had sound enhancer installed on the phone in settings. Also sound enhancer does not show up in the marketplace anywhere either

what app is this that uninstalls xap that you speak of?
[HTC Titan] SuperSport:
XAPDeployX has the option of uninstalling the existing app before installing the updated XAP. Maybe the program you used uninstalled the app First, then never completed the install? Likely, a Hard Reset will bring it back...
[HTC Titan] noelito:
this sucks but i think you're right i might have to hard reset tonight sigh
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
here is mine... nothing really going on with it.
[HTC Titan] Tempest790:
I just used chevronWP7 to dev unlock my Titan, and it worked great! Tested two xap's (specifically the battery meter and screen capture) and both installed and worked fine.

Since we're not interop unlocked what other xap's are worth putting on this phone? This is my first unlocked device by the way.
[HTC Titan] noelito:
I got sound enhancer reinstalled with the reinstaller app! Yes!

Thread moved from the Dev section to Q&A section.

My advice to the OP is that if you dont know how to flash, then dont. Read up first, and there is a lot to read... but its all good information on how to NOT mess up your device.

Also, if you want to flash S8, check out his site and his thread. Mikey steers his users in the right direction and makes a great rom.

I just want to make sure I do it right, but so far have not gotten an answer to this rather simple question.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
entropy's post has several to choose from. they are all dated. the dates are the versioning (if you will)

how hard is it to click on one and download it? maybe the most recent one?

also, Entropy's kernels in that thread are for CWM, flashable just like any other CWM zip file

perhaps you need to read the FAQ thread and the HOW TO ROOT thread. this basic stuff is explained very well.

ok I DL'ed that zip file, and tried to flash w/ odin but it doesnt list it as a valid .tar file, and won't let me see it in the list of files I can choose from to flash

downloaded cwm, and flashed it with odin (the exact way I tried to flash the kernel, but this one actually shows up for use)

cwm is installed, moved the .zip to SD and installed with cwm, and nothing. Phone is not rooted and completely the same as before the install...

Not sure what to do at this point.....why didn't the kernel flash?

Should I just go ahead and try to flash the ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
what exactly did you expect to happen??

flashing kernel =/= rooting your phone.....

i am completely confused as to why you dont read the FAQs i have repeatedly pointed you to?? they arent there for forum fluff, they serve a freakin purpose!

since its obvious you dont want to go look for yourself, here are the links:

Installation

From Stock:

1. Install Entropy512's kernel, found here.

2. Entropy512's kernel will give you root and CWM. Download Titanium Backup from the Market, and after allowing root permissions, back up your apps.

But I flashed the ROM with CWM anyway, and it worked. The phone is blazingly clean and fast and battery life has dramatically improved. Thanks everyone!

In winxp you can load a driver for a system device! maybe later at driver level the connection data can be verified?

connect in serial mode. it will have detected a nokia rm801 or so and ask for a driver. it finds 4 devices.

for the first, the xp system will itself suggest

1) USB Composite Device

2) will not find anything, and show the dialog to go onto internet, search etc.

Don't search and choose the driver to install yourself, with the downmost radiobutton and click next, in the categories go to System Devices, the driver assist will suggest a Compaq Deskpro Thermal Sensor, install this. Will install without error

3) see 2.

4) see 2.

Because it installs a temperature sensor driver, it must be possible to monitor or probe somehow. help?

Just a warning to everyone who values their PS/2 keyboard / mouse. I ordered a PS/2 to USB connector and tried to connect the keyboard to the phone. The result was a fried keyboard that flashed its Caps / Scroll / Num Lock lights at a constant rate, and after a reboot of the computer, 2 of the 3 lights were on at about 10% light. This happened to me with a generic HP keyboard. Obviously the keyboard never worked again.

Disassembling the keyboard I could make out a bit of burnt electronics smell.

Es file explorer is not as consistent when it comes to giving you root access, which is what you need to paste in system, app. Imo, root explorer is a must.
