Which ROM do you use? There is no difference in ICS Roms to Gingerbread ROMs. Just try to take the bootanimation.zip into the customize/resource/ folder. But as far as I see there is no why it shouldn't work. Just take the normal GSM flashable.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
Yes it does. Noob.
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Come on il duce, keep calm (and carry on) :D maybe he just did something wrong. You know it can always happen and I'm sure that we can help him, can't we?
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
Lmao. I was poking fun. I've known mahalocat for over a year ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Right in the face :D but you know, there're enough rude comments spread all over xda, so you'll never be able to judge if it's serious or just fun. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] mahalocat:
Lmao....a$$ hole...

Ok rename bootanimation.zip and delete sprint_ bootanni

I
[HTC EVO 3D] mahalocat:
Nope. Noncturnal Rom. I'm getting the HTC bootanni.....
[HTC EVO 3D] mahalocat:
Got it.... Data / nocturnal
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
So then you just use the Infected Flashable, it flashes to data^^
[HTC EVO 3D] ImbaWind:
simply fantastic !
[HTC EVO 3D] MadRed:
is this suppose to be 3D?

Can we also have a 2D version?
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Don't worry, It's 2D ;)

Virgin Mobile EVO V 4g (EVO 3D)

first off binux this is great as the VM boot animation blows.

DISCLAIMER: binux, XDA, Myself or my children are not responsible for any damage you cause to yourself or your phone so do this at your own risk!!!

ok now for those of you that are impatient like me. here is how to do it on VM 3VO."stock rooted only"

1. Download sprint cdma flashable zip and extract the files from it.

2. Rename "Sprint_bootanimation.zip" to "SPC_bootanimation.zip"

3. Rename "Sprint_downanimation.zip" to "hTC_downanimation.zip"

4. Rename "android_audio.mp3" to "BoltAnimations.mp3"

5. Now paste those files to /system/customize/resource and overwrite the old ones

6. Now change the permissions of "hTC_downanimation.zip" to "rw-r--r--"

7.Now got to /system/customize/CID and open default.xml in a text editor. Now go down the file about 3/4 of the way and find <BootConfiguration>, and edit *audiostart="SPC"* to *audiostart="part0"*

8. restart your phone and enjoy....:D
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Ilfred, thanks for this nice tutorial I think a lot of VM users will be able to enjoy the bootanim now! If it's be okay for you, I'll implent the tut into my op.
[HTC EVO 3D] Daevionne:
May i use this in my custom rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Sure It's free to use everywhere. Just give me credits, that's all:)
[HTC EVO 3D] bsoplinger:
Its been over a week. Do you plan to do this or have you and I just missed it? Its not too hard to do the steps manually but I figured I'd be patient and wait and let the install script part of the flash do its magic instead.

[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
No you didn't miss anything, I was just to busy to do it. I will give you a ping when I done it. Just stay patient (or do it manually) :) (you know xda is not my whole life ;) )

[HTC EVO 3D] Rm4n:
Hello.

I have tried using this bootanimation with the Virtuous Eclipse rom but I haven't managed to get it working. I'm not sure what am I doing wrong but if someone who uses this rom managed to make this work, please help me.

Thank you very much binux-project for the awesome animation.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tuna9351:
Works fine for me. Using KingCobra ics.. Got confused between the HTCboot and just the standard Boot img. lol finally figured it was just the Standard bootimg. Works with sound etc. Shown my friends to blow their minds lolol.
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Yes, but only for Infected Sense 3.5 I think.

Eclipse uses other names for the zips :rolleyes: Just flash this one:

Bootstep_Eclipse

Added to OP. Tell me if it works for you :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Rm4n:
Yes it is working. Thank you very much!
[HTC EVO 3D] ilfred019845:
Hey guys sorry it took so long, been working on another project:eek:. by all means binux go ahead and use it so that other can enjoy.:good:
[HTC EVO 3D] binux-project:
Updated OP thanks ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] ArisenDrake:
Just flashed your Animations and it works good with mwakious3Drom v.11.1

The Animation is much better than the default animation by mwakious (sorry, but I think so :D).

Thanks for this! German quality <3
[HTC EVO 3D] ilfred019845:
No problem, just figured I'd save someone else the time. Cuz it took me a few hours to figure it out.:highfive:
[HTC EVO 3D] Cilinyar:
Thanks for this! It took me some time to figure it out and get it working on the ROM I'm currently running(Android Revolution HD 2.0.1).

If it's not working for you, go to /system/customize/CID and open default.xml(Just like in the OP), that will tell you where you need to move each file. I haven't been able to get the audio working yet, I will work on it more tomorrow.

Thanks again, as well as for the splash screen! It turned out pretty sick!
[HTC Desire S] zurpher:
Hi all,

I have a rooted HTC Desire S and wanted to apply a HTC System Update. I thought that it would unroot the phone but not cause any problems. However, now the System Update seems to be stuck with a blue android and exclamation mark on screen.

I wonder what to do now.

Is it safe to restart the phone by removing the battery or otherwise?

Thank you so much for your help.

Try to restart the phone by Holdingn Volume Down & Volume Down and press and hold the Power button.

It worked!

Thank you, ben_pyett.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattkroeder:
Don't know if it's necessarily a Nexus S ICS issue but does anyone else find that the ICS browser has a really annoying rendering issue? A page can be fully downloaded but it doesn't actually display in the browser until you wait a few seconds or move the page around.

If you move the page around, there might be a block or two that shows up but then other blocks of the page don't.

This is really the only issue I have with the ICS browser as I love the interface. But it's a pretty big issue.

Opera displays pages smoothly and looks great but I hate the interface
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScuzUK:
I get this as well and its rather frustrating, the really bizarre thing is when you press the page overview button (where you can close a browser page) and you can see the page has loaded.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] developersdevelopers:
I've pretty much given up on the stock ICS browser because of this. Even native Google websites like Google News are painful to browse.

Hi i have a question is there any possible way to install winows phone os on my galaxy ace i dont want any launcher i just want windows phone system.

Many Thanks

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Gizmotech:
At the moment no. Too Much work and I doubt anyone will develop a port that would work on android phones. Windows Phone is not open source so Microsoft will not release the source codes. Even if it could be done, I think there will still remain that element of legality issue.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] GunnerFan:
I've a new Razr Maxx XT912 which I'd like to root strictly for the purposes of removing the bloatware and unwanted applications. After doing a bunch of reading it seems like I should:

1. Root the phone using DooMLoRD_v2_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su

2. Use Titanium Backup to remove the unwanted applications.

Could someone validate my thinking? If I'm way off or whatever just point me in the right direction. Very technical person here so I'm just looking for a check on my direction.

Thank you!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Hung Wei Lo:
I'm a noob myself, and the general consensus seems to be that you should use Titanium Backup to freeze the unwanted applications in the case they're needed in the future...

Hope this helps (and it's not a case of the blind leading the blind;))
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MBL85:
You should root using Doomlords method. Install clockworkmod recovery and then install a custom rom like Arctic.

Most custom roms don't come with any bloatware on it in the first place. You can find clockworkmod recovery for the Razr somewhere here on xda.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mobzter:
well you both are right.. u can remove the ones that u know won't cause issues (prob a thread around for what's suitable n what's not). i've messed around myself altho i only have the razr not the razr maxx. freeze is good way to c if any giv away errors but dont b fooled thinking some are ok until u reboot phone cause some errors surprise ya then lol

not sure if Arctic rom works on there or not but if so, that idea would be really useful.. cuz u can backup ur phone, have a mess around without worries, get to use diff roms which not only have less bloatware but have tweaks that help speed/benefit your phone.

hope that helps!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Which of these 2 devices are you guys most interested in? If they both come out with LTE on Sprint and ICS of course? I personally am Wowed by the camera in our ET4G and hope that the next one only gets better ... what do you guys think?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
Obviously it'll be the SGS3

GNexus is already old and barely a step up from the ET4G
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I dunno it's gonna be a hard decision. Im sure the Sprint GalNex will be out much sooner.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Your talking about a phone that could drop in a month vs a phone that is not even going to be announced until Mwc ....then will sell in maybe June or July internationally and sprint maybe Oct or November ....might as well just say next evo in there too ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
True but it might be the obvious choice for updates other than that I heard the camera is not up to par with the ET4G and the Evo comment I have to say that it would have to blow me away and they are becoming less open than Sammy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
I am just saying sprint has said 12 different lte devices by end of year ... the first will be sg nexus but when will others be out are they able to be hacked ie s-off if HTC etc ... who knows my user experience with 3d says they will have to put a great phone out to get me to ever go back to HTC ... if Samsung is upgrading CPU and gpu for sprint version of galaxy nexus they may upgrade cam and screen or none .... we won't know until they say ... just a guessing game huh..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] il buono:
Samsung released a statement saying the sgs3 won't be revealed at mwc. It will have an event in the first half of the year as it nears public release.

Nope , there's no metallic backcover for the I9000 , atleast from the manufacturer , since samsung keeps things plastic to reduce weight

Now simply reboot the device.

Do I have to rename the file? like replace the original SystemUI.apk?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] ssaass:
Are you sure :)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] ssaass:
first make a backup copy of the original SystemUI.apk

Then rename the file

be careful guys and remember that you will loose back, home, menu buttons if this doesn't work.

BTW it didn't work with me:D
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] emprize:
for those cant make it work, remember rename/remove the SystemUI.odex as well, otherwise wont work
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] antiochasylum:
You don't have to remove the .odex file, where is that code going to go then? When you de-odex it puts a classes.dex file in the apk so there is no need for the .odex file.

Do not remove the .odex file.

Rename it to SystemUI.apk as well. The lazy way is to go into your system/app and copy the stock systemui.apk to your SD card, then paste this file over it, and set permissions.

The smart way would be to copy it in a shell. But that might be to advanced for some people.

And besides all he did was edit the images. At least that's what it looks like. I haven't download it to check for a classes.dex file.

could you tell us what you did to get it working?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] Zouk!:
I did a sum up of the topic :

1 - Go to system/app and rename SystemUI.apk and .odex both to .bkp

2 - At this time systemui keeps force close, just accept (again and again), copy now new SystemUI.apk to same place and set permissions as original SystemUI.apk

3 - Reboot and you're done!

Hope this helps

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] DaveC1964:
Great but...

WARNING! All of that blue will burn your new AMOLED screen (blue is the first color to lose brightness). Use this if you want status icons permanently etched in to your screen.

I am not sure why people (even Samsung themselves) don't seem to realise that blue is the worst color for these static screens and constantly love to over use it.

Maybe we can get a status bar with the more OLED safe red, yellow, green or combination of those colors?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] emprize:
Apart from black, which color is the most battery saving?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] DaveC1964:
Blue is the least efficient so I would guess red or green.

It isn't about battery saving it is about screen saving. I doubt that little bit of graphics for the status bar uses much power no matter what. It will burn your screen though. I think blue has a half-life of 17,000-30,000 hours (red/green over 100,000) so blue will be half of it's original brightness then. Of course you will start to see the burn much before because half brightness is pretty severe. You will start to see permanent image retention (mostly noticeable by a yellowish "stain" in the area of the static image) probably at a couple thousand hours (maybe sooner) depending on how bright you have the screen, and how sensitive you are to noticing these things.

I wish software developers, including Samsung themselves, would keep this in mind when creating mandatory static images on their devices such as status bars etc. OLED is great but it is not LCD when it comes to longevity, and care should be taken accordingly.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] antiochasylum:
Factual Evidence to back this claim up?

Even so, @ 17,000 hours @ 24 houts a day is 708 Days. 90% of people do not keep devices more than a year. Personally I keep them MAYBE 6-8 months before I upgrade. So why sweat about the screen? I am going to put what ever color I want and that I like. End of story.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] ezynow:
people with amoled+ screens have already reported burn in issues after only a couple weeks.

primary affected area is status bar. although only really noticeable under certain conditions

for 7.7 users these are valid concerns not so much for 7.0+ devices.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] Zouk!:
+1

Please stop worrying people, we are talking about of little tiny blue icons...

Worst : I will worry much more about a permanent GRAY bar with white icons (blue led is also turned on for white) than a black bar with blue icons.

At this step if you are still worried, just use HoneyBar or...turn off your Tab :p

Moreover, every things has a lifetime, just enjoy your device and stop to worry!

AMOLED is not a perfect technology like others one. Just choose the one you prefer.

Best Regards,
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] DaveC1964:
If you need factual evidence just look up "OLED lifespan" on Google, or just search "burn in" on this very forum. OLED burn in is no "claim" it is just reality for this tech.

The 17,000 hours is to half brightness. You will notice the permanent IR/burn in MUCH sooner, at 1/10 or 1/8 of original brightness. The issue is that the blue goes so much faster than the other colors so you get color shift to yellow as the blue degrades.

You can put whatever color you want but know that isn't very OLED friendly. Sure you can say "then just don't use my app/ theme!" Well OK but some users don't know the issue until it is too late and say "Hey howcome there is a permanent shadow of all my status bar icons?". There also could be options for other colors that the user could select. Or whatever, but people should at least know the risk.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] hudl:
Is a version for GT-P6810 possible? Or can anyone tell me how to do it? Is it just replacing images in the apk, or do I have to code something?

If there are concerns about the blue color, why not make the icons grey in the bar and leave blue in settings for example?

A black bar also helps in saving power (a little at least). The grey bar is really ugly imo...
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] DaveC1964:
Um, gray uses blue as a component color you know. Take the red and green from the gray and you are left with blue. You know the whole RGB thing.

You would need to make the graphics with red, green or combinations of red and green (such as yellow) to avoid blue and burn-in.

A black bar with yellow icons would be fine for me, with the battery being green when full and red when near flat.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] hudl:
You are right of course - didn't thought of that first. ;)

But if making a dark grey (which is useable because if the bar is black, the contrast is higher and so we can make the grey darker), there wouldn't be as much blue in it and thus taking it longer to burn in. Question is, if less blue takes longer to burn in or if that is regardless of the intensity.

However, there are gey icons on the original bar too, so my intention in first place was to make the bar black, because the grey currently is really ugly...

Changing the icons is no problem (well, I don't think you will get any harmonious color with only red and green though... don't want to get eye cancer ;) ), but I don't know how to change the background of the bar for my 6180? Is it within the "framework-res.apk"? Or is it only within and AOSP ICS build? :D

Anyone knows?

EDIT:

That's great! I just tried to use the apk from OP and it works on my GT-P6810 too!!! :D

I will investigate it though and report back if I find some troubles with this.

Maybe I will create a grey version...

I would ask you the same about the 90% figures you just pulled up.
