[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
I have absolutely no idea what you're on about.

So you downloaded VIVID_ICS_OTA_ROOT.zip or whatever and you tried to CWM it?

The instructions from where you downloaded it from should have either given you a PH39100.zip to update your HBOOT before you reflash recovery and then the ICS zip. You MUST lock your bootloader before you use the PH39100 update zip.

If you have only a PH39100.zip image, you MUST LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER, otherwise it will not work. Again, it should have been very clear from wherever you got the zip from.

What sort of crap site didn't tell you these things?

EDIT: Did you get this from ATT Software Update? That's probably the worst way to get this update. I'm also pretty sure you need to relock for that too.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jsramirez27:
I dont think ure understanding what I am saying, I am not referring to the leak, this is the official OTA ICS update from AT&T. I know that I need to relock to install, I dont want to do that because I dont want to lose root. I'm posting so that devs can root and do whatever else with this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Crimson Ghoul:
No, he was just wondering if it is the same one that is one here. because the ones we have been using are leaks. There have been rumors that some are sense 4.0 instead of 3.6
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
There was no leak... The RUU is the official HTC RUU for the ICS update.

The "leak" you speak of was made from an OTA update pushed to one of the first recipients of the Vivid's ICS. Versions .52, .54 and .56 are all essentially identical.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jsramirez27:
This is what I was trying to find out. So this OTA is nothing new.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jirv311:
That's what I am wondering too. Why we have 3 versions of a 2 week old update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_JD:
A while back I was using a ROM (I think Winner's kang), and there was an option to disable boot animation. I checked that. That option has since disappeared and I can't figure out how to re-enable boot animations. I've flashed CM over it x times since then, but still no animation. Any ideas how to get it back?

If I do a factory reset It comes back with a new ROM, but I'm trying to avoid re-doing all my settings. I've already done a fair amount of searching the web and XDA for this, but nothing seemed to fix this.

Thanks for the help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Working on finding out...may or may not be successful.

One minute!

Clear data on rom control and reflash the rom maybe.

I downloaded alogcat.

And enabled boot ani in AOKP M4.

Log cat states that it ran the script system/bin/sh

Maybe try running that in script manager. But I doubt that will work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_JD:
I'll give it a shot. Couldn't hurt!

Thanks

...Just tried it. Nope!

I read somewhere editing the init.goldfish.sh (system/etc) might do it, but i got nowhere with that either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrfenyx:
i know this is not the solution that you need but it might be an idea on how devs can avoid creating this problem from the start:

simply move the bootanimation.zip to another location. This will disable the boot ani and in case a user wants it back, it's as easy as moving it to the /system/media folder :p

as for your issue, in case you decide to reflash the rom, titanium can bring back your apps in a flash and most launchers have an option to backup settings. all in all it takes less than 10 minutes for me to reflash and have my phone as it was before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_JD:
Thanks. I thought if you removed the animation it defaulted to the original Android animation? Maybe not.

But yes, titanium and launcher backups are my backup plan.

Thanks for the help

If I cant figure it out by Sunday I might just do that.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Have you tried Root Tools? It's available on the Market err Google Play.. claims to enable and disable bootanimation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_JD:
I just gave it a whirl-no such luck.

Thanks for every one's suggestions. I think I'll pm the dev and ask him if he knows what that option affected.

I'll post any revelations as soon as I hear anything

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
And you have a known working bootanimation.zip in the system/media folder?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droid_JD:
To the best of my knowledge, yes. Otherwise it would just show a black screen, right?

Instead it just shows the Google logo with the unlocked icon.

Strange, I thought others would have had this problem too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DynamicRam:
open "etc/init.goldfish.sh" in a text editor

-in the end you will find "setprop debug.sf.nobootanimation 1"

-make it 0

also you can try adding those lines to the build.prop

ro.kernel.android.bootanim=1

debug.sf.nobootanimation=0

are you sure "system/bin/bootanimation" exists ?

Yup, that's there. No file extension tho. And I have the animation file in system/media and local/media. Regardless a new ROM should over write all that info, right?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Crocosaurus:
I don't know the ins-and-outs of MTP, but is there a way to present the GNex as a UMS device to a car stereo (I'm rooted, so anything goes)? The car stereo doesn't support MTP, only UMS.

AOKP M4

franco.Kernel M1

TIA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
I haven't had luck with my stereo either.

Have you tried with PTP as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Crocosaurus:
I have not tried PTP yet. I actually haven't purchased a car stereo yet, I was just researching before I settled on a stereo, and was hoping someone had a workaround.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeflash:
I know this is an old thread, but I found a solution for this.

My car stereo didn't support MTP/PTP, so what I had to do was to go to settings, More... (under wireless and bluetooth) and then "USB utilities".

From there you can activate good ol' storage to PC.

That way, your car stereo will detect your phone as UMS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
This doesn't exist. The Galaxy Nexus can't do UMS.

i like an app drawer that is like the touchwiz one, so that you can choose the order of the apps by yourself.

is ther an option to make this in any its rom or any ics launcher?

thank you!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonas9:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I can't tell you which one you'll like. Search the "Play Store" (formerly known as Market) for "launcher". You'll have your pick. Install and test until you find on you like. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonas9:
i would like everything like the ics.. i have flashed the resurrection 9.7

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
*sigh*

Dude, clearly you can't read, either.

Look - if you are dissatisfied with how your app drawer currently functions, try changing the settings. If you can't get the app drawer to how you like it, then INSTALL ANOTHER LAUNCHER to change your app drawer.

This isn't rocket science. I'm not trying to be mean here, but I've basically said the exact same thing in three posts.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonas9:
sorry am a noob...

and how can i change the app drawer without changing the homescreen????
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LJP1111:
Can't I'm afraid. Installing a new launcher will mean that you have to add shortcuts and widgets back to the home screen. However if you switch back to the stock launcher they will still be there. Aftermarket launchers also handle the home screens.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane6374:
Hi Folks,

I just bought an Acer A500 and I'm really disappointed in it. The screen isn't very good, and wifi seems a bit wonky on it. Not that I'm against hacking, because I'm not at all. I don't like the fact that it doesn't work with ad-hoc wifi connections out of the box. The thing I loved about it was that I had it rooted, recovery and a custom ICS rom installed within an hour.

I know the TF101 has a better screen so I'm not going to ask that. I've tried to search for most of this info, but you know how good search is, so I'll ask here.

I see the tab has root, is there a one click method that I missed? I thought I saw one for it at one point but haven't seen it since.

As far as wifi goes, will this thing hook up to our android phones using the tether apps (not pdanet)?

How easy is it to brick one of these? Stupid question I know, but I've been using Samsung phones which are pretty much impossible to brick unless you really screw up on a kernel, so I would just like to hear what you think.

Reason I ask is because I debated between this and the A500. I went with the A500 based on price. I've been theming over on the the Nexus S for AOKP and CM9 so I'm looking for a tab that I will be able to work with the same roms so I can expand into tablets. I've also started trying to do some source builds so I can make some of my own visual modifications to some of the jar files within the framework.

Thanks in advanced for any input you can give! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No_u:
1. Easy to root, especially the earlier models.

2. Wifi tether & Bluetooth tether (I recommend bluetooth highly!)

3. Almost impossible to brick if you have one of the earlier Transformers with NVflash.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweaked:
Vipermod for ICS - Search for it.

I use my inspire 4g to connect to all the time. I just place my phone into hotspot mode and use Wep Security and then just log on with the tab.

On a new model, all you get is CWM. So make a back up and hold it dear. Because if something gets hosed while flashing and you don't have anything to go back to. Its dead.

On an older model they have nvflash and can recover from anything.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Sorry to ask, don't want to be an ass but then why would you want to receive your work mail on your personal device?

The work email contains data from your employer and he will want to protect that from unauthorised access... He has the same right to do so and to ask you to protect his data as you have to decide how you want to use your personal device.

Only one "real" solution: ask your employer a phone that is his and you can use for this purpose or don't get your email at all when away from your desk...

Anyway, to answer your question: I never saw such an apk floating around here so I'm not sure it exists...

I'm all for data security since I work in the IT field I just don't think that I should let someone else control my who, what, and where on what I own.
