[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GFX.myst.:
not bad. gotta love plugins that modify already made images. ;) plus if you're using team acid's latest kernel, you'll notice that they're already using the logo i made them. :p

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I was meaning to ask you for this. I really liked the video you linked us to on IRC. It makes it look so sleek. :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
This image will display for the one second or two before the kernel image you made loads up. Yep, used a simple Photoshop plugin because I am not much artistically inclined, at least with photoshop. Still, this kinda gives a fade-in effect when combined with your image used as the kernel image.

FB, I was thinking this could be put into any one clicks you guys made if you wanted to get this in somewhere.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Yeah it looks pretty stable.

Samsung recently released their j4fs driver code but I couldn't get a module compiled on my linux kernel so I could see if there was write support. It'd be easier that way since we could delete all the other jpegs that this phone doesn't use and have more room for a bigger image that way instead of having to do some hex editing.

http://movitool.ntd.homelinux.org/trac/movitool/wiki/j4fs

This would be pretty simple to include in a one click like you said :D. I'll talk to the other guys about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] anoymonos:
Not to rain on your guys parade but how often are you guys rebooting your phones that this would even be useful, I mean that is the only time you see it. This is nice but you know there are gonna be so many noobs whining help help help , brick how do i fix, etc you get my point. This should be targeted towards Devs not the average user.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
You only see the boot animation once too, but people are always changing it. It's just a part of personalizing your phone.

Also, if I'm running an ics ROM, does that make the bootloaders ics and unable to use this?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
This is more to unbrand this from samsung and tmo. I know several rom for the optimus line that have custom splash screens.

No we are still using gb bootloaders on the sgh-t959v.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Using heimdall keeps a lot of noobs away. The noobs never wanna learn anything different. The hex editing will definitely keep them away. It is targeted towrad devs, did you see which forum it's in? ;)

Yes I noticed and yes I understand wanting to make your phone unique. OK since this is in dev sec I won't clog it up with gibberish
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] htaak:
Used your modified param.lfs file. Worked perfectly....No more T-Mo!:highfive:

Update...I was doing this to my wifes phone (she saw mine) and got softbricked. Reflashing ROMS from recovery couldn't fix it either, it just kept rebooting to recovery (Phone has the latest TA's AOKP and recovery). I used the same param.lfs file I used on mine - and found earlier in this thread. As things had gone fine with my phone I didn't have a back-up of my wifes param.lfs so was unable to reflash her .pit with the original param.lfs. Not one of my finer moments.

Fortunately using the KJ6 one-click got me back to stock. I didn't flash BL's though and so still have the Team Acid BL splash screen. I now have the phone back on AOKP with the Team Acid BL splash and it boots fine.

Not sure what happened, maybe something broke recovery.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wacky2bakky:
Hey all, I have a weird situation. I recently within the last week flashed Blazers 3.8 Rom. Working perfect. One thing I did notice is that I went in the market to download a couple apps I had on my phone before I flashed this rom, For example, SetCPU and Speed Boost Lite, it downloads but once it goes to install them, it gives me an error, insufficient storage available. Don't make sense because I can download newer apps that I've never had before just fine. My SD card has 14GB available, USB Storage has 10GB available, and the device memory has 1.77GB free. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this? I'm so lost
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xStormyz:
I've had similar problems. You may need to completely wipe your device and reflash the rom, I did so, and everything works fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sergioperalta81:
try clearing cache in applications/manage and clear the the cache for your market place and reboot and you could also try clear cache and dalvik cache in recovery sense you gonna reboot anyways ...and if that doesn't work then re flash as posted earlier...re flashing is the easiest answer but im just posting cause it sucks to have ur phone set up the way u want just to find out something doesn't work naaa mean....

[HTC Sensation] matt95:
Hello everybody :D yesterday i polished my htc sensation frame and now it looks like this

Before you start this adventure you will need a lot of free time, in fact this took me about 7 hours! :eek: but the final product it's awesome :D i guarantee :D

If you have any question just ask right here and please hit thanks if you like my work :D

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

3 sandpaper (waterproof) 800 Grit

2 sandpaper (waterproof) 1000 Grit

1 sandpaper (waterproof) 1200 Grit

Strong glue

Anti-oxidant creme (the cars one will be good)

DO NOT USE SANDPAPER UNDER 800 GRIT, IT WILL CAUSE DEEP SCRATCHES HARDLY REMOVABLE

HOW TO GUIDE:

1- First you need to remove the frame

2- Disassemble the frame (remove carefully the 2 rubber pieces, the one on the bottom has 2 screw and the one on the top is sticked so you have to heat a bit that part and remove it)

3- Now you have to remove the speaker grill, the volume bar, and the light sensor lense

4- Here we are :D now begins the dirty job :D (after 10 mins your hands will be destroyed but think that you have to do the same thing for another 6 hours :D ehehe) I Highly suggest to begin with the 800 grit sandpaper, this first sanding will take a long time

5- That's the frame a bit later

6- You have to continue untill the bare metal is showing up

7-When the bare metal is showing all up you have to resand in with the 1000 Grit to remove the scratches of the 800 Grit and then resand it with the 1200 Grit to remove the scratches of the 1000 :D If you want after the 1200 Grit you can even sand it again with the 1500 Grit

8-Ok, last step is to take a towel, put it in your Anti-oxidant creme and then spread it on the frame

9- When is all sanded and full of Anti-oxidant creme you have to assemble all the parts and be sure to put some glue on the alluminium before assembling the upper part

10- In the end it should look like this

11-I also have sanded the camera circle :D it's brilliant :D

Now that you have finished and your hands are still alive enjoy your Alluminium polished frame :D

i've done this 8 month ago .. but mine is fully polished .... :D

[HTC Sensation] glukosio:
i'm the photograph of fift photo :D and i helped with the project! tag me! :D
[HTC Sensation] Eyeloose:
I also attempted this using a while ago using a guide by a fellow XDA member called WhiteSites but due to my post count, cannot link to their guide.

Rather than spending 6 hours sanding (I'm lazy, what can I say?) - I used a strong oven cleaning foam on the oxidised area. After around 10 minutes, I washed the foam off and gave it a quick sand followed by a decent polish.
[HTC Sensation] Dougi:
here is what it look like in mine :D

i found the pics i made ... ;)

in 8 months the aluminium is still shining just like the pic..
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
Wow :) shiny but I prefer brushed metal :p
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
hmmm maybe if we apply the primer on the bare metal we could then apply any other color :D wooow i'll try it out...maybe i'll go for the matt black...matt black...it will be awesome :D by the way where did you find the creme to make it man? i can't find it anywhere :(

I do have s screwdriver at home. Are there any tips that I buy to put onto the screwdriver for polishing?
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
I haven't used that but if you want you can use tools for polishing
[HTC Sensation] androidEVOlution:
So the frame looks great...

The bottom plastic piece I cracked kinda takes away from the look though.

Anyone have an extra? :/
[HTC Sensation] big_sw2000:
Yep mine is as shiny and mirror like as it can get

Coming from a painting background, you will need a special aluminium etch primer.

And its still probley scratch off

Steve

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------

You can buy polishing heads for drills. I did mine on a bench polisher using pumice as the polish.

It even polishe the original black colour off. As i said, it looks like a mirror. Its about 6 months old, and still shining. Although i did wipe some car polish around it the other day.

My HTC letters fell out, so i removed the glue, and now its black, sets the finish off.

Hey guys, I really like this idea and probably will try it out as well :D. But I have one question: Is it possible to paint the plastic parts? I'm asking because the upper one kinda lost its colour around the camera and it really doesn't look nice. :(
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
i haven't tried it yet, you mean the 2 rubberized parts on the back?
[HTC Sensation] s3nsation:
Yes. I thought it might not work because of the rubber kind of paint or even affect the antennas :confused:
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
i'm not sure about it, but one thing is for sure, you mustn't sand those parts cause this will destroy your antennas
[HTC Sensation] s3nsation:
Ok, thanks, I won't :good:
[HTC Sensation] Criton:
I did this on friday, must say my arms were hurting like never before. And I wont even try to describe the pain in my fingers - I do not know such words in english.

But the results were stunning!

I started with 800 for the paint removal.

Then I got to 1000 and removed the scratches from the 800.

After that I followed with 1200, 1500 and finally 2000 for the final touch. Autosol made the thing shine like there was no tomorrow.

Next I'm gonna use some nail polish to make the HTC letters red. And the camera lens red too.

Thanks for the helpful guide, wouldn't have thought of this "mod" othervice :D

Yesterday i founded a new camera software even better then all the soft of camera and named U-cam. Try it.
[LG Optimus 2x] iulian89:
Looks really nice. I made some tests some time ago but i didn't see any big difference.

I'm gonna try camera 360 again!
[LG Optimus 2x] Dac0908:
Optical sensor is quite good, made by Sony. But also we have second "glass" on back cover, which can get dirty inside and out. Then at the end I think software is to be blamed about most of the bad results, even though we have some options that other can dream of. Like panorama mode or even simple flash for photos :D

But lousy brightness and white balance on auto mode can ruin all that. Can be fixed by manual setting which is is pain in the ass, but there are software fixes for later.

Every photo editor has it. Paint.NET has "auto-level" under Adjustments for easy fixing, but I do it with Picasa. Use it for managing my photo collection anyway, and there are a lot of auto or manual editing options. "Feeling lucky" usually makes wonders out of my not-so-attractive photos, sometimes it even looks like lite-HDR effect. Try it: http://picasatutorials.com/2009/04/picasa-tip-im-feeling-lucky/ :)
[LG Optimus 2x] mike-o2:
Camera 360 is a great App. I use it for 2 years now. But your comparison is not about photo quality but rather about settings.

Compare the Camera 360 HDR Light photos to the LG stock camera "Vivid" option.

Also I cleaned my back cover glass with laboratory grade alcohol and microscope wipes last year. There seemed to be residue from the glue holding the glass smeared across the glass. Mainly on the inside. Once this was removed I never had dramatic differences between cover on and cover off.

There is dust in there sometimes and there are fingerprints on it, but they are wiped off easily.

I recently receieved a replacement phone from T-Mobile, refurbished of course, well I went through the typical rooting/soff process like I always do. That went fine. But the first night I went to sleep, I plugged it in. I woke up the next morning and it was dead, no power, no hboot. I thought okay maybe it didn't charge etc. Long story short, I haven't been able to get of back on, at all. I've called T-Mobile. They said to send it back and they'll send another.

My only worry is, if they see I have s-off will they attempt to charge me or what?
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
Did your battery not charge? Have you tried another battery?

They dont look for that, They JTAG then reflash the software then send it to someone as a refurb

I've tried, I still have both Sensations. I tested the charger, the batteries, everything is fine. It's definitely the device.

Glad to hear that! Thanks for the response.

What can we expect when we buy from moto ? A device that is no longer supported 3 months after release. A locked bootloader insuring that we will be left with a $350 paper weight when we buy our next tablet so we can run the next os that comes out. Its time for consumers to take a stand and say enough is enough . Support your devices or our next device will come from a company that does. Stop trying to make your customers pay for a new device every 3 months and support the devices that are already out .

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eraursls1984:
If your rooted then autokiller is great (but not needed on devices with 1 gb of ram) it adjusts your ram settings. If your looking for a true task killer they are not needed and cause more harm than good, make sure not to set it to auto kill, only kill apps manually and only if you know they are a problem, if so they should also be uninstalled. If you have it set to auto kill, or you manually kill all apps it will eat up more battery and slow down your device because its working to restore the apps into memory (apps in memory are not using resources or negatively effecting the device unless your down to under 100 MB which should happen mainly on devices with 512 MB or less ram, and occasionally on devices with 768 mb)
