CleanRom Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113 - CleanROM WiFi Help

FYI - when I first installed the CleanRom mentioned above my wi-fi would not turn on (in addition to some other funky thinks not working (like the home button)).

The fix is simple.

Wipe the data on the tab using CWM recovery tool (power + vol up)

Select "wipe data/factory reset"

Then re-install CleanRom from your sdcard.

Wifi should start working again.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] rwcatalano:
Allow me to re-phrase - Upon rebooting your tab after wiping the data and installing the clean rom, you will be presented with the system setup screen which will allow you to configure a new instance of your wifi setup. Upon completing the system set-up wifi will operate as expected.

Hey folks.. I have a few questions regarding the boot animation sequence. Right now I'm using the Xi40 rom (which is awesome so far) and I feel like I want a new boot-animation.

So my questions are as follows:

Can we load boot-animations from a different phone onto ours with no issue as long as its 720p resolution?

Is anyone currently owning the One X familiar with the process to

create

a boot-animation? I have a couple .gifs that I would love to create some with, but I've been told they need to be chopped up one way or another? I literally dont know anything about the process...

I would love it if someone well-informed on the subject could lend their knowledge. Thanks guys

This is how I learned. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1096068

Instead of part 0 and part 1 use ATT and android as the folder names. Do the same for the desc file. Then instead of bootanimation.zip use ATT_bootanimation.zip. if your on rogers use the name of you respective folders and sub folders of the bootanimation file.

Both rogers and att are located in system/customize/resources folder on device.

If you use windows make sure you have show hidden files on and delete any .thumbs files windows places in your working folders or animation will have problems, also use notepad++ (free) to build the desc file.

Hope this helps.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jnichols959:
You can also tweak some boot and shutdown animation (and sound) properties by editing /system/customize/CID/default.xml - the BootConfiguration and ShutdownConfiguration elements. Have fun!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xeper:
Is there a default ICS boot animation in native 720p? (speaking specifically of this animation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DLT21a4ddk)

It's pretty much the only one I like.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jnichols959:
I found one and tweaked it to play a little bit slower (12 fps) but you can crack it open and tweak it to your liking. I also attached the default.xml that I tweaked so that I didn't have to overwrite the ATT_bootanimation.zip and didn't hear the ATT sound during boot. The file goes in /system/customize/CID/default.xml. NOTE that I had to attach it as default.txt but you need to rename it to default.xml.

Remember to make backups!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:
lageInte fhalt

Thanks for the tut, gonna dl some programs and give it a shot!

The boot animation I want comes from a gif i have, which i also have in avi format from recording it. So my problems lies in finding a program that will chop up any video format into individual frames in png.

Im using virtualdub but the 'save image sequence' option doesn't seem to work for me..

Am i making this more complicated than i need to?

thanks again

edit*

ah! figured out how to save the sequence. will update again later.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jnichols959:
Guess you got it figured out but I ran across this for Windows that sounds like it will extract GIF animation frames to JPG or PNG (though only a frame at a time): http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-extract-frames-from-gif-animation-image/

if i cant find system/customize/resources can i just create it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:
yea i got it but thanks for this other option!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jnichols959:
It's actually resource, not resources. At least on my ATT HOXL. I imagine you could put the zip in any number of places as long as default.xml pointed to that location.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
Yea system/customize/resource sorry smart phone typo lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:
ok, so my boot animation should work, but can anyone explain the default.xml aspect to me?

figured it out. sorry for all the edits.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:
Keeps getting overridden by the old boot, and now the simple old "classic" android bootanimation.. halp :(

i feel like ive made some progress though!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jnichols959:
Open up default.xml and look at the BootConfiguration element. I'm no expert in these areas but at the very least it specifies the boot animation zip file location. You can also specify a sound to play at boot time. I have a copy of the stock default.xml that uses the sound attribute - or you can crack open the stock RUU and look at it yourself.

I've only started playing with this in the last couple of days so I'm sure there are folks here with better answers ;-)

can you attach your /system/customize/CID/default.xml file (might need to rename it) and then tell me the name and location of your boot animation zip?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:
first of all i just wanted to say im grateful that youre replying

Im editing the file now and I noticed the bootloader tidbit, which i edited to point to the location of my bootanimation, which i guess doesnt work :)

ive got my animation zipped perfectly i believe so im a bit confused..

let me post some pics and tell me what you think
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dufort:
In the first attachment you can see that im pointing it towards my zip, which is in the 2nd attachment.

In the 3rd attachment is what my zip looks like, i copied it to be exactly like that of the previous bootanimation thats in my rom, but of course edited to launch my own animation.

edit- whenever i restart my phone it immediately skips any animation straight to my desktop
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jnichols959:
Are you using the "store" compression type when creating the zip?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esvext:
Hello,

Does anyone know if the Sony Smartwatch works well with the Samsung Galaxy S III ? Has anybody tested it ?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDude1966:
I'll install this afternoon the smartwatch app's on the S3 this afternoon and let you know.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esvext:
Thanks :-) Do you own both the Sony Smartwatch and Samsung Galaxy S III ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDude1966:
Hi, I can confirm the Sony Smartwatch works fine with the S3. Yes I have both. It didn't surprise me since the Watch worked without any issues on the Galaxy Note too.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esvext:
Thanks a lot. I'll probably buy the watch very soon. Can you confirm it is a good product ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wond3r:
Wouldn't the s3 battery drain pretty fast with it being connected to a watch by Bluetooth all day?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keirmccann:
assume its offset by not turning the screen on as much
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDude1966:
If its an good product? I have to say yes, although it comes with some compromises. Small screen, poor visibility in full sun light. However the ease of fetching those important information snippets, like new mail headers, messages, controlling music player etc... make it for me an really usable tool. Often enough I just can't full the phone itself from my pocket.

Regarding battery usage of phone and watch for that matter. It all comes down to how frequent you have those mini apps replicate. Those which must be noticed immediately, phone calls, email, messages are pushed instantly. Other apps I replicate every few hours. I would say the phone gets 10% extra load, the watch runs easily one week on a full battery.

I made a small change to the watch. I took away the clipp and super glued the rubber band directly to the watch. This makes the whole unit a little less high. Sony rolled out new firmware yesterday. The screen is a little brighter and the icons a bit bigger.

Coming from an Xperia S

Hi there,

For the music player app on the smart watch, a small thing but the name of the song and artwork is not transmitted to the watch, although the controls work. I have tried Rocket Player and PowerAmp, but they are not recognized in the Music Player Liveware setting page, it's only Automatic.

My friend complained that battery life for the smart watch is worse after the new update though; I haven't confirmed it yet
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esvext:
Have you tried with the last firmware update of the smartwatch ? Do you still have this issue ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDude1966:
Yesterday there was another SmartWatch firmware update. The previous one did indeed show an higher battery usage. Not that strange, the screen is a lot brighter, icons bigger and much more responsive system. The update from yesterday seems to polish everything a bit more. Battery life can't tell much yet.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esvext:
Do you still have the issue with the song name and the album cover ?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triadwarfare:
I'm interested in buying the Smartwatch because I want to be able to read SMS without pulling the phone out of my pocket at an inconvenient place (Samsung Galaxy Note II.

I wanted to ask what music players work with Smartwatch as I'm not a big fan of the stock android music player as it adds anything it can find in its playlist and I don't have the option to designate a dedicated folder for Music files. Although someone told me that I could create playlists, it's too cumbersome especially when you add several new songs every now and then.

Hi Guys,

Can someone please do a quick test to check if the SGS3 (Samsung Galaxy SIII) battery fits in the GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus?

We just need to check if the battery sits and if the NFC works. We don't care about whether the battery door works at the moment.

I am praying it does because in that case the GSM GN will have a 2100mAh extended battery instead of the standard issue 2000mAh battery.

Thanks guys!

Hey guys ..just to start I love this phone ..but the issues I'm having with multitasking is killing me ..I literally cannot switch between webpages or apps without them reloading..even if I switch and then go right back..I dont understand why such aggressive mem management is necessary since my 3d handled it perfectly..and I don't even run a lot of stuff at once..anyways I've read some ppl are not having this issue....this along with me dropping several calls a day in a good signal area and the dropping WiFi and constant loading screen when I press home button make me think I should look into a replacement phone..just wanted to see if everyone was having similar issues ..

I did search actually for a long time bud..I read that a lot of ppl where not having this issue and some were..I also read that the hox received an update that seemed to alleviate the issue for some of them..I know the issue is within sense..but I was asking if it was as bad for everyone else as it is for me..it kills apps within seconds requiring a reload constantly....but thanks anyways

Try to use the recent app button to switch between apps don't use the home button if possible I found that helps with the reloading a lil

I just got a second battery, but when inserted, it shows the last battery percentage from the previous battery. The G2x is designed to be used only with one battery? Or is that a feature of Android? that's just stupid.

Anyways, how do you guys and girls do it? Do I have install Battery Calibration and calibrate everytime I insert another battery?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
I've had this happen to me, I think that restarting after inserting the new battery does the trick.

Just leave the battery out for like 20 seconds. It'll then recognize the new battery.

Sooo, does that mean that if I let the phone run on one battery until it gets down to 0%, if I put a charged battery, will it turn on?

Hi all and all the GT-I9210 owners,

I'm learning Arabic and I'm trying to use it on my phone, installed an Arabic keyboard but when I type, all the letters appear disjointed. As you know, Arabic is like running writing so imagine all the letters separated but in addition to that, each letter has a different shape depending how it connects to other letters so it's a real pain trying to read or write on the GT-I9210.

I had no issue with my previous phone as I installed custom roms with Arabic already supported in them but the GT-I9210 has no custom roms that I could find yet, especially with Arabic support on top of that.

Does anyone have any solution to this please??? Thanks.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] is350:
I just want to know how different the development will be for the international version compared to either the Canadian/US version (which presumably will be the same with S4 & 2GB RAM). People are posting that Samsung will give the international version updates earlier but is it that much sooner than other variants (or do the NA variants not get updates at all)?

I'm not sure which to order since I'm from the US (I have no use for LTE but price and ease of warranty are factors).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzgod:
This is my problem too, which to get?. I'd love to have more development options, but at the same time I want faster speeds.

At a glance it appears that the internation one is going to be HSPA+ 21Mbit/s connections. But the LTE North American models will have LTE support and if LTE isn't avalible in your area then it defaults down to DC-HSPA 42Mbit/s not to mention the 2GBs of ram.

This is a hard choice :/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Totòòò:
Both will have great development. Look at the intl note and the north america note for example
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tsukurimashou:
I also don't know which version to choose... Less pricy 2gb dual core with LTE or international with more support quadcore better GPU but less ram and no LTE...

I wanna know which one is better for multitasking, also if the battery life is better on the dual core or not and if 2gb vs 1gb really matters...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Totòòò:
Id choose the usa version but i just hate that awful carrier logo on the front of the phone, it ruins all the beauty!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbzgod:
Thankfully my carrier doesn't brand there model number on the phone itself. I think they do this because they sell there phones in an unbranded/unlock versions to other non-major tel companys in Canada (don't know if this holds true for the SGS3 when it comes out though)

I've made my decision I want more ram and faster connection speeds through LTE and DC-HSPA. So now I'm just waiting for the thing to release lol. Also waiting to hear back from them if i can get it cheaper as an upgrade, otherwise their full price will be $599 O.o
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naddie:
Don't mean to drag this back up, but I was going to create a new post until I found this one.

I am in the same predicament. I'm wondering if I should get the Intl or US model.

I'm on T-Mobile, and they will be refarming their PCS band for HSPA+. I wonder if it's a safe bet to get the Intl model and rely only on a single 1900 MHz band for data, or go with the carrier's model and enjoy the potential of 2 HSPA+ bands (1700/1900)...

Plus, there's the development support issue as well. I've enjoyed my Intl SGS2 when I was on AT&T because of all the developer support - love the mods and the ROMs. Then I moved to a GNex when I went to TMobile.

My ideal ROM situation: CM9 ROM, stock Android Experience ROM, and modified Samsung ROM (themed to look/feel like ICS so I can keep the camera app while enjoying the stability and the highly optimized framework). I love using Titanium Backup and ROM Manager to basically change ROMs without loosing much data whenever I'm in a different mood. :D

I'd like to eventually have 1 SGS3, 1 iPhone (the next model, esp when TMobile's PCS band gets refarmed), and I'll keep my GNex for shiz and giggles.

Just not sure which to get - both seem to have their pros and cons.
