[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstrkvg:
I have looked around for a while now for the solution to this problem, however everyone can only seem to come up with a way to alter the files. I was hoping that the Android system would just be able to pick up media files like any other device.

The problem is that the Media scanner will split up an album (from the same artist) into different folders, so Album A with songs 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 will be split up into Album A 1,3,4,5,6 & Album A 2,7,8,9. Not only this but I am experiencing albums with Same and or Different artists being split up with 1 song per folder, so 40 song album gives me 40 folders. This apparently is due to the id3 tags and the way that the media scanner reads each album. For some reason the older firmware updates for android could only read Album and Artists then got changed to Album Artits.

I am running Ice-Cream Sandwich and was hoping by this firmware Google would have fixed this problem as it's quite an annoying issue, I dont want to change the ID3 tag for every album before I put it in my phone as it becomes tedious, dragging and dropping is what i feel should be the only step to get Music on your Android device.

Thanks for anyone that can provide assistance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
It's a feature, not a bug.

http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1262090

If you're going to the trouble of downloading an album (presumably from a questionable source since the tags are messed up) is it really that much extra effort to drag a folder into your favourite tag editor to auto-populate/clear the Album Artist tag?

Edit: From a quick glance, there's plenty of ID3 tag editors on the Google Play Store too.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstrkvg:
Yeah fair point, I just feel life if there is a folder with the same Album name the songs within should automatically be created within them, removing that extra step to change the files yourself. Ill have a look at the ID3 tag editors on Google Play, thanks alot for your help.

Even if there can be a change made to the scanner through the SDK even, that would be great for a custom rom.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luminoso:
anyone managed how to make this work like it should with ICS?

I have the following:

different %title% and %artist/ for every file

same %album% for all files

what I've already tried :

1) %album artist% with the name of the album

2) %albumartist% with the name of the album

3) blank %album artist% and %albumartist%

4) %compilation% tag set to 1

none of the make it work like it should. any suggestions?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] papaj42:
Hello all. I've got a problem. My phone is Xperia Mini Pro. I did everything in this tutorial to install custom rom. First I downgraded my firmware, then rooted, installed CWM, unlocked bootloader and at last installed kernel from this rom, but forgot to move the rom on SD card. Now when i launch my phone I can see FreeXperia logo, but it stucks on Sony Erricson logo. I can enter Clockwork, fastboot etc. What should I do?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
turn off your phone

take out the memory card and copy the zip using a card reader or some other phone.

then power on> go to CWM and flash the ROM.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Is not needed.

Connect USB cable to your phone and computer, enter the recovery, then go to mounts and storage and mount USB storage.

Your SDcard will be available in your computer as removable disk and you can place the .zip file to the sdcard. I do that all the time :D

hey guys i just made a Zelda ocarina of time high res intro bootanimation^^

respects go to this video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8DbnGlpq5M for the base of the boot animation and the sound. Nintendo for the amazing game and me for my time

the video is set to just play, my phone usually boots about half way through it but oh well:rolleyes: first time making one ^^

push both files to data/local and all should be grand

edit. depending on which rom it could also be in system media (cm7 type roms) or in system/customize in some sense roms ^^

also for the wildfire i know the audio cuts. nothing anything i can do :(

and for users that cant get audio to work with cyanogenmod 7 roms try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1364636 although im not sure if this will work on cm7 derrived roms.

that being said i have went back to the drawing board and i feel i have improved these greatly, i removed the n64 intro to improve the sinc with the audio and they are far less choppy ^^ but should anyone want to make it faster or slower open the zip, edit the desc.txt file. the last number on the first row if frames per second.^^ so download time :cool:

wildfire V2 240-320 http://db.tt/VNEvLgo8

wildfire V1 http://db.tt/0wyKg0GI

sound audio http://db.tt/blDMgM9I (right click and select save as )

vid:D http://youtu.be/nunWXJbIMdw

have been tested on sensation and wildfire by me ^^

if anyone wants this resized for their device pm me and ill do my best :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] :
oooooh :D ASUS TRANSFORMER WILL BE TESTED ON ALSO!

but should the audio be ogg or mp3 ???

will check how this will be :D

worked fine (however i no audio, due to i can't say if its need to be ogg)

and i saw the video to the tunnel ! :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
hmmm i'd like to test this on my g2x... whats the size of the animation? anything like 750x424-ish?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] :
should be working as OP had a HPDI phone :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
the link here has been resized just for the wildfire, go to here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25887422#post25887422 for the sensation sized animation one, which was 960h 540w :) if you want i will resize for you if your willing to test :)

and the file should be mp3 for htc models, im not sure about other devices. not to sure what a ogg file is lol if your on cyanogenmod you may need to add the sound script.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
sweet :D very happy people are taking an interest :D
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
Sure im at work and cant resize it now.. if your willing to resize then ill test for sure! :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
ok buddy just for you :D i have made this to 800 by 480 as this says that is your device screen size ^^ http://www.gsmarena.com/t_mobile_g2x-3888.php

http://db.tt/9qV4X6vR audio remains the same. hope it works :cool:
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
sweet! lol thanks ima download it now and report back. Thanks again!
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
Btw way question for you, how many fps do u have the animation set to?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
5 ATM pal.

You could slow it down but it starts to get choppy.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
lol no I was thinking of increasing the speed as it seemed a bit choppy for me... but looks cool.. thanks again! :)

edit:

I forgot to add that with it the way you gave to me it ends as Link rides Epona by the tree and as it shows the front of the castle it ends..
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] :
I know this worked perfectly on wildfire, I love it, it ends when they enter the tunnel :D
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
sweet ^^ feeling well chuffed now

thats the same as it gets with my phone, i think newer phones ignore the boot animation somewhat and boot when they are good and ready too :p and its a bit choppy as the vid to pic convert was at a pic per every ten frames. i could try make you one with every frame, which would be alot less choppy but its 2000ish images :/ i dont think even our phones could take it.

everyone getting the audio ok as well?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
lol dang 2k images... that would be a big bootani file.. but no audio here btw.. also unrelated here but just curious since you're in my beloved Land of Scots... are you a Rangers fan or Celtic?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
no audio? hmmm. are you on a rom that needs sound to be enabled? afaik cyanogenmod ect needs to be configured for sound at boot. more info here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1364636 although please check with your rom before following that incase your rom as some specifin instructions.:D

and tbh pal im no into football, far to busy with my beloved android ;):cool:
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
ay ok but your a Scot so no worries! My mom was born in Glasgow... but cool i'll check that out for sure... the rom im on is pure cm7
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
groovy :cool: well i think that script applies to all cyanogenmod 7 roms so if all goes well that is what you need ;)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
updates ^^

check the op;)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
lol thanks! Im maxed out on thanks today so you'll get some on the morrow. When I get home im going to increase the fps to test it and see whats up...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
groovy :cool: i get the feeling that the device booting in the backgroung may be slowing it somewhat. i definatly get some lagg when my device is ready to turn off the animation and do its stuff. usually just as link gets to the top of the first hill.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
cool yea mine is just laggy the whole way thru.. the previous boot animation I had was done at 75 fps.. so I got lots of room to play with.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
I'm beginning to have concerns on how much you can bump up the frame rate, I don't think it can go past 30 buddy. I dont think the phones can do it. I think if you put it above 30 it only reads the first number, so if you put 75, it only reads 7.... If someone wants to prove me wrong feel free, but I put the frame rate up to 270 and it was still lagging a tad.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Scratch0805:
I thought different phones have different framerates. I may be wrong though as this is the only android I've had, if a wildfire is capped at 30fps I'm pretty sure a more advanced phone will have a higher framerate.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
That's what I thought but I've been testing on my xe.....
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
Yea my phone can handle it. Since ive last posted I'm testing a new ICS beta for the g2x and the custom boot ani that comes with it shows in the desc.txt:

450 725 70

p 1 0 part0

the animation itself has 599 images btw..

So no worries, it will run it. just worried about the images missing in between.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] heavy_metal_man:
Well, I have spent lots of time trying to get the best video I could from that. I have tried using every frame but at 2000+ its a lot for the phones to take. I also tried to strip it down somewhat so it would only go to the hill as that is where my phone boots anyway. Buy still no avail as it was still around 1000 images. I can pm you the total images file if you want to have a crack at it yourself but that v2 is the best I could get for my device and it runs well for me :D
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] da-pharoah:
Cool man that will work for me. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nighthawklude99:
I am looking to modify my phone.apk to change the color of a few buttons and the android guy that shows up when in a call. I have done this in the past and it seemed like then it was as simple as deleting the files in 7-zip and replacing with the file I wanted. Am I missing something or is it not that simple. Every time I try to move a file or delete it its says "not Implimented" or un supported compression method. I know how to push and pull files through adb so if I could just get the .png images where I want them then I would be all set. I have looked everywhere but cant seem to come up with a solution.

Thanks Jason

PS. the files are from another rom I am simply trying to use them in my current rom so the .png file should not be corrupt or broken.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Albinoman:
You can't edit apk's with any zip extractors
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Not true, regular image files can (should) be able to be draged out, edited, and droped back in an apk using 7-zip.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
My guess would be that the apk was decompiled at some point before, but not recompiled right, or with the right program. Which phone.apk are you having issues with, the one on your phone or the one your pulling the pngs from?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nighthawklude99:
I am having problems with the phone.apk I pull from my phone with adb, with the phone.apk that is in the original rom, and the phone.apk that is in a nanadroid back up. The rom I am running is anthem 3.3. I am starting to think that there is a problem with 7-zip on my computer. Is there a setting I need to change? I have even ran 7-zip as administrator to see if that helped.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Sounds like your install of 7z may be messed up. I just tried it to make sure something didnt change in an update and it works fine for me still with default configuration.

[HTC One S] Leviathan2k:
I'm looking for a docking station for my One S. My gripe with the current offerings are that they all place the phone horizontally, which renders most of the interface useless, since Sense won't rotate the homescreen and a lot of other screens.

I understand that it's sort of difficult because the USB connector is on the phone's side rather than bottom, but are there any useable vertical docks for the One S or similar phones in existence? Maybe some generic dock or phone holder, even if it's without a cable connection - something to place the phone properly on the desk would already be better than just having it lie around randomly.

There's an app called Android Hardware Info on the Play Store that you can use to check the resolution of your cameras. What you're looking for is the "Picture Size" which will give you the resolution that corresponds to your camera's MegaPixels.

We can always just try to come up on the camera apk, lib files and just try it. Doesn't hurt.

[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I've done a lot of research, there is an actual hardware difference in the htc one that makes a few new functions possible, even if we DO get that working on our phone, there won't be ANY different function because we are missing that chip.

Anyways, just go read this, at the very bottom, is explains the new image chip, and what it does.. without that chip(and sense4.0) there would be just about NO difference between our camera app and theirs. http://www.htc.com/www/htc-sense/camera/#page-navi

[HTC Amaze 4G] bige914:
idk i just want the new camera app lol

really i dont think we need the freakin 30 shot but what we really should have is the panorama piece in the sense 4.0 camera, that would be nice, the 30 shot thing is meh unless you intend to use a phone like a pro camera sumtin wrong with ya :P go and buy a 3K camera then lol. thats just my opinion, panorama would be a decent upgrade for our phones, and to have an actual beats app even though thats not even related <_< .
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
We have panorama, just tap scenes and select panorama.
[HTC Amaze 4G] yrv_13:
I agree we dont need a freaking 30 shot just the ability to control when to start and when to stop the burstshot at will. Just sayin :rolleyes: and why would i need a 3k cam if i got a Smartphone that is intended to fill that necesity as well as many others :confused: ne ways thats just my opinion....

Wondering if there is a 3rd party launcher that has notifications for the native email application, sms, calls etc like TouchWiz has where there are numbers stating how many have arrived or been missed. I was using ADW Notifier with ADW Launcher but since upgrading to ICS ADW Notifier doesn't work.

Someone has a link or something? Does it track your eyes with the camera or is the RGB sensor somehow used? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maverick777:
I think you're referring to the RGB LED on the front which is the notification light. It means the light can change to practically any color to have different colors for different notifications.

As for the software features that utilize face tracking, I'm sure it uses the front facing camera to do it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcam117:
On gsmarena it's listed as a sensor.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rj3005:
The RGB sensor is the notification led, probably the word "sensor" is a translation errror. and yes R stands for red, G for green and B for blue so you can expect the led can display a rainbow of colors and using the right apps you can adjust the color for each type of notification to your liking.
