I created a custom boot animation for my Dinc last night and figured I would share it with the good folks of XDA.

It is basically an Apple logo being shot a few times by the Android figure, then blows up. This was my first attempt at creating a boot animation so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't been able to set it out on my Dinc due to some issues accessing the system folder on a new ICS ROM that still needs to be worked out. But, I did test it using the Boot Animation Previewer and it worked fine there - so I am making the assumption it works on my device.

Here is the link to the bootanimation.zip file

Updated: So I realized that this file is never going to work because the original is 151MB, so I severely cut down the size, the links above now post to a new file that is 3.8MB. This should work now.

Hello, the thing is that I have an Atrix 4G from Claro, Nicaragua with Froyo. Claro doesn't have released the official GB update. So I was wondering, is there any other way to update to GB? The phone is locked to Claro, and I don't want to pay to unlock it.

Thank you!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IcECo0L:
There are two different locks,

1. SIM lock (you can't use a different provider) this one can't be bypass without paying for an unlock code.

2. Boot loader lock. This one is the one that doesn't allows you to change you OS. Be careful because you could brick your phone unlocking the boot loader. Read a lot before doing it. Good luck

Hello,

I have been running froyo based roms for a while now and have just decided to move to a gingerbread rom. I have tried two different roms, and if I turn my phone off I can not get it to power back on unless I pull the battery. I have tried reinstalling roms, and not installing any apps just to make sure it isn't an app causing the problem.

Has anyone else had issues like this or know what the problem may be?

Thank you.

Are you wiping dalvik-cache, boot, system, datadata, data, and cache, thru recovery before flashing?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowman7:
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I have wiped the dalvik-cache, boot, system, datadata, data, and cache. Have you heard of anyone else having these issues with gingerbread roms? I am starting to think this is my issue, but I don't know.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
I have never heard of anyone else with this issue. Do you have fastboot enabled in menu - settings - applications? If fastboot is enabled your phone dosent really power off it just goes in to a sort of hibernation, making starting up the phone faster. Mabey its not able to wake from this hibernation for some reason, requiring you to pull the battery and truly power off the phone in order to power it on again.

Unfortunately if rom manager fried your motherboard too... it's the only solution.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Accessories] TheSaint77:
OKay I bricked it :S

:o After 4 hours of reading and finally taking the steps I bricked my ACE sadly following these instructions...

:(

What I did was seeking for the software 'clockwordmodace' in the Marketplace, caus i did not find it elsewhere. Then, after installing it, I said Backup current ROM and it whent dead in my hands and never woke up. Even after pressing the home-power-volume up combination. Noob me..

So I guess I will bring it back to the store....or does anybody else have a suggestion.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Accessories] ross231:
look at my signature.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Accessories] TheSaint77:
Thanks ross231. Appreciate your reaction.

The ACE is back to Samsung for inspection...lets see what they say.

I told the store that the connection between my PC and the ACE was bad at the time I did an upgrade. They found that a plausible. :)

Hopefully they (Samsung) will send me another ACE because its not powering at all and this one is not even a month old.

I'm new on SGA section.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Accessories] QNBT:
You DID NOT really follow its instructions, looks like ur bad mouthing the thread xD

Anyways just to avoid future problems like these, if it says .zip it's probably not gonna be on the market since all the apps are apk files.

The zip file is suppose to be flashed via recovery-mode. When I was using froyo you werent able to chose and select which zip-file to update from, so I rename the clockworkmodace.zip to update.zip and chose the updater (in recovery mode). That's one way to get CWM properly.

edit: oh and you can download CWM via that thread, it links you to this thread:

The instructions on the cyanogenmod wiki for the galaxy ace suggest using ROM Manager so I assumed it was fine. It just goes to show you shouldn't trust wikis!

Any advice on getting this fixed if outside of warranty? In theory could I send it to Samsung?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Accessories] memity:
Fixed - In case anyone reading this has the same problem

So I downloaded the right version of Odin for the Ace (4.38) and had better success, but whatever version of the firmware I loaded didn't work...

I then tried to flash the cwm as described in the post I can't link to, but titled 'Clock Work Mod Recovery v5.0.2.6 Flashable via Odin'. With the new recovery mode, I was able to install the firmware I'd downloaded to my SD card (cyanogenmod) which worked.

Good luck to anyone else who's having the same problem!

I am considering clockworkmod but put off by the 'bricking' situation. I see there are a couple of versions - V4 and V5

I take it downloading the .zip file and running from the Galaxy's default recovery mode is failsafe rather than from the Play market?

You can press Vol up+Vol down+Power+Home in case that doesn't works too. This is the EMERGENCY method. I hard-bricked my ace once too and took it the service and those geeks change the board for free:rolleyes:(Just don't tell them anything about rooting.)

How to unbrick my Galaxy Ace Duos? i cannot go into download or recovery mode. its just a blank black screen.

I cannot go into download or recovery mode. Its just a blank black screen? - I rooted my galaxy ace duos then flash cwm. Then reboot the device till then everything went blank. I cannot get it into recovery mode at all. I have tried the all 3 buttons methos but no luck. Please help ::

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Accessories] SMillerNL:
You probably hard bricked it by not reading properly. Just like you didn't read that this section isn't for Q&A.

The solution is to get it to a Samsung service center and act dumb and say you updated through kies when it bricked.

Next time, read before flashing stuff that wasn't intended for it onto your Ace duos.

No one wants to spoon feed people who don't even attempt to read the stickies. There are atleast 2 stickies that tell you how to root your phone that i found within seconds.

Especially when his question is answered in the first post of one of them which is fairly prominently labeled.

However, I agree, if you couldn't even find the clearly labeled sticky on rooting, or creepy's general flashing guide, you need to leave your phone stock. You WILL screw up your phone in a way that is difficult to recover if you can't even follow his guide, and I'd say you have a very good chance of being one of the few people who manages to hardbrick an I777.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] melder52:
Creepyncrawly is correct. I was very overwhelmed when I first found this forum. While there are only a few stickies many are very deep in the number of posts to read through. Patience is a virtue here for sure. It takes a lot of time to read through a few stickies that are 400 - 1000 posts deep but it's worth it as you can skim a large number of them for important keywords and highlights.

I was converted to 2.3.6 (stock) and needed a fix for the battery issue. But as recommended I read every sticky (many times over) until I started getting a better grasp of the rooting concept. I was an iPhone user that jailbroke it many times over and felt that process seemed so much easier. After rooting my phone a couple times now and using a couple different kernels and flashing ICScrewD a couple times I'm comfortable with saying it's just as easy.

I just redid my phone yesterday morning (1) because I felt it wasn't running optimally and (2) because I wanted to redo the process for the sake of learning. In no time flat I was back up and customizing my screens again with a fresh ICScrewD install.

CnC and Entropy among many others have done great work here and are very informative. I greatly appreciate the work they've put in here and a few other forum sites.

Hi,

-Camera is the same quality as in CM9, video quality of .mkv using MX Video player and S/W encoding is very good, we can still not use H/W encoding (same problem as CM9)

-MIUI themes do not work properly (known MIUI bug), 2 Editions available one of them themed.

--Battery life seems good, same as CM9

--No, the one before that.
