Bump, I'm on the same situation. Even the app for the bootanimations wont play the selected animation.

I'm trying via terminal, pushing the zip through the ADB, I've just modified the stock bootanimation images and saved as PNG-8, zipping the folfer with 7-Zip and selecting store instead of compressing...

Thanks for the help!

try flashing another rom, which supposts them
[Venue Pro General] gaborr11:
So, the other day my DVP felt into water, and I took it out quickly from there, and everything worked fine, except the volume down button, which didn't work. On the following day, the volume down button worked sometimes, but very often it still played the same as the day before: Set the volume down to 0, and when I want to set it up, slowly set itself to 0 again. Now, after 3 days, the volume down button doesn't work.

Is there a way to software or hard reset my phone?
[Venue Pro General] Technosquid:
You can reset your phone, but I don't think that's going to help. It probably needs repair.

You can reset going to settings > about > reset your phone.

You can also read the thread "How to unbrick a Dell Venue Pro" and flash the stock ROM again.

In the hidden EM (Engineering Mobile) app, there is a hardware key test. You can use this to confirm what seems obvious to me... the hardware cannot register the key presses of the volume rocker any longer, so no software reset will be effective.

-Enter the EM app by dialing ##634#

-Double tap the area below MMS settings, slide the keyboard up, and type "qwertyuiop"

-Tap the selection under MMI - English.
[Venue Pro General] gaborr11:
Yep, thanks, hardware problem, although it's really weird, that sometimes the button works, sometimes doesn't.

How much the repair would cost?
[Venue Pro General] Technosquid:
Assuming you live in the united states, I would ebay the broken one for parts. Even DVPs with broken digitizers or screens go for about $80. The going rate for a newish 8GB one seems to be about $130-140. I doubt you'd find a technician to perform the repair for you under that $50-60 price differential. Remember that you can perform your own SD card upgrades, so only get the 8GB model and upgrade the SD card yourself if you want additional storage.

You could also order one with a broken digitizer and simply swap digitizers. Just a suggestion! I'm sure you'll have your own ideas. In my mind, though, having a technician repair the phone is out of the question.

Here's a disassembly guide if you want to try and perform the repair yourself.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leoingle:
A friend I work with just got the EVO 4G LTE and he is coming from the OG EVO 4G. He got 4G on his old phone where we are at but he can not get 4G on the new EVO 4G LTE. Is it because the old EVO did wimax and the new one doesnt have a wimax chip in it, only LTE and they have not upgraded to LTE in our area yet? And he has LTE/CDMA selected under mobile network settings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bonebeatz1234:
you are right this phone has no wimax only 3g that's why people who got wimax capable phones still using then cause sprint 3g is a joke they should be ashamed at calling this 3g. I just came to sprint three weeks ago from TMobile. TMobile edge/2g Network blows sprint 3g away i mean if you compared the three g speeds of TMobile it's faster than wimax and if you compared TMobile hspa to sprint Wimax it make that look slow. I didn't know sprint was thus bad our i would of stayed i just got tired of TMobile not getting any good phones.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leoingle:
then that is probably the deal. i have Verizon, so dont really keep up with what is going on with Sprint around my area, but i have not heard of them getting LTE around here yet. i am just north of houston, they may have it down in houston, but houston always gets new things, then my area gets it shortly after as they start to expand out. i know verizon and att have their LTE working here. but you are right about Sprints 3G speeds, i downloaded speedtest on his phone and it took like 3 minutes. haha
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
Which is ironic, as every carrier should be ashamed of calling whatever their top service is "4G". If you had actual, true-to-spec 4G service, you'd need a new pair of pants.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
Technically Sprints WiMax was closer in terms of Spec than any carriers LTE or hspa+. But with almost no backhaul improvements over 3g, piss poor rollout speed, and craptastic implementation, it was doomed to fail. LTE gives us 3.5G. LTE advanced will bring us true 4G with LTE tech. Sadly I'm not sure we will ever see it, or be able to afford it with the way carriers are treating data plans.

With true 4G you'll be able to burn an AT& T data cap in 10 minutes and Verizons in 30 minutes. By this time I assume network vision will have failed miserably and Google will have purchased Sprint for pennies and made a prepay carrier full of Android badassery.... At least that's what I'm hoping for.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engson:
I don't know whether this question has been raised, but i have read in some other thread that flashing through mobile odin doesn't raise binary counter.

I am on N7000 ICS LPF stock rooted. I am interested in flashing speedmod kernel. My question is, will flashing thru mobile odin speedmod (custom) kernel increase my flash counter thus voiding my warranty? any response from you guys is highly appreciated. Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SugarFreeMilkTea:
no! it won't increase counter.

But someone tried to flash speedmod from mobile odin pro and it can't reboot...

The safer way is flashing thru odin3. You can use Triangle Away to reset the counter.

For myself, I flashed it thru cwm recovery with no flash counted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engson:
But i read in the speedmod thread that flashing via CWM may also cause problem. I really want to flash this mod but unsure which one is safe and won't increase my binary count. thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
I am currently using speedmod kernel, but had to flash it with odin PC. Mobile wouldn't let me flash it. Odin PC is safe although raises the binary counter. Odin mobile should be as safe as the PC one and won't increase the binary counter...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engson:
could you please walk me thru the exact procedure you took to flash speedmod via cwm. thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
It is not recommended to flash anything thru CWM right now...u are risking your phone. Is better to have the yellow triangle that having a brick...

Of course is your call, but be sure of the risk u are taking before doing it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engson:
now I'm a bit more confused :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
Binary counter and the triangle are no longer an issue. You can reset the counter and remove the triangle with Triangle Away on ANY ICS Rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mR.fR34ky:
you could flash with Mobile Oding, download the odin verison or cwm .. anyway you have to exract the zImage file and put hat into mobile odin &flash

Hi folks, since Win 8 is starting to get a bit more popular with the locals and there are already dozens of posts on similar things I figured id start a new one that we can use for general help related questions so we don't bog down the board too much, perhaps it wont work or is a waste of time, Ill try keep on top of all the questions and answers and will stick a link to the person who answers the question first so they can get the credit

This isn't a place to get in to the right or wrongs of Windows 8, there are already a couple of other threads for that.

Nope, this is a place to ask; How do to do something, Where to find something, can we do this that or the other, that kind of thing

Remember if someone helps you out don't forget the thanks button! It costs you nothing an gives them a wee pat on the back for their trouble, To find the original author please visit the links if they are available , they may have more detailed info and screen shots to help you.

If this gets bigger ill try and divide it in to sections or group similar questions together.

:)

Q1, How to change the volume on the music app?

A, You cant currently change the volume independent from the system volume

Here and Here

Q2, Where can I find my start Menu? and Do I need to pin shortcuts everywhere?

A, All your legacy start menu entries can be found by right clicking in a non-tiled area and pressing All Apps, you don't need to pin any of the internally used Start Menu folders to your taskbar or such.

Here

Q3, How do I shut down my Computer?

A, Shutdown is found by pressing either WIN+I or by holding your mouse in the upper or lower right hand corner of the screen, then pressing settings on the Charm Bar. Click power and choose what you want.

Here

Q4, Where can I find the old run / search command box?

A,You can open the run window by pressing WIN+R or by holding your mouse in the lower-left corner of the screen and right clicking, then click Run. Search can be found on the Charm bar on the right side, by simply typing in the relevant screen or by pressing WIN+F for files or WIN+Q for apps, WIN+W for settings

Here

Q5, Where can I find the control panel settings and other power user commands?

5.You can also open Control Panel by right clicking the Start Hot-Corner overlay and clicking Control Panel. (This is the Desktop version of Control Panel, not the PC Settings app accessible in the Settings Menu on the Charms bar.)

Here

Q6, Were are all the settings for my apps, I cant find any way of changing things in my apps?

A, Many of the settings within metro and for metro apps can be found by opening the Charm Bar on the right hand side by moving your mouse to the top or bottom right corner of the screen. Some settings and options can also be found in the options bar at the bottom by right clicking on any blank space within Metro or a Metro app.

Here
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
So in the interest of kick starting this off heres my Question

Does anyone know if theres a way to change the volume within the music app?, I cant see it in audio mixer either so have I missed something?
[Windows 8 General] NastyNasdaq:
Scroll to the right of your screen and open the settings wheel, from there is a system volume slider.

The following isn't a question but a possible answer for a future question:

To run a program as administrator you must search for the program via metro and then right click it and the option will be there.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
ah but that changes the overall system volume, so yes it does work, but it effects everything, its also a backwards way of doing it, (action>click>click>adjust) Seems a tad long winded for a simple up down volume command,

thanks for your reply and tip
[Windows 8 General] hanswurst24:
I think what dazza wants to have is a volume seperatly for the music app and at the moment this is not built in. You have to use the system volume (like Nasdaq said or just in case you have volume +/- on your keyboard with these).

I'm not quiet sure if in any metro app out there today you can change the volume (except some that are playing i.e. youtube videos, cause the youtube player can do that).
[Windows 8 General] NastyNasdaq:
No problem. Its the only way I know about adjusting the volume at the moment.
[Windows 8 General] ShadowEO:
If it's on your desktop or if your feeling complicated, you can always right click the program's executable and press Run As Administrator. Or if your scrolling through the Start Menu entries using the tip below, you can right click and the option will be there too :D

For future references: (I'll be updating this post with more.)

All your legacy start menu entries can be found by right clicking in a non-tiled area and pressing All Apps.

As per previous versions of Windows, all your start menu groups and shortcuts can be found on the previously mentioned All Apps page. (Your start menu is still there, you don't need to pin any of the internally used Start Menu folders to your taskbar or such.)

Shutdown is found by pressing either WIN+I or by holding your mouse in the upper-right hand corner of the screen, then pressing settings on the Charm Bar. Click power and choose what you want.

You can open the run window by pressing WIN+R or by holding your mouse in the lower-left corner of the screen and right clicking, then click Run.

You can also open Control Panel by right clicking the Start Hot-Corner overlay and clicking Control Panel. (This is the Desktop version of Control Panel, not the PC Settings app accessible in the Settings Menu on the Charms bar.)

EDIT: If you want, I can make a screenshot that shows what I mean for others. :)

BTW, This thread should be stickied once we get enough information. I think it's a good idea. Also I think Metro Apps are exempt from the mixer. So I'm not sure that there is a way to change the volume in any of them unless the App gives it's own soft-volume control.
[Windows 8 General] KahulBane:
Also in all Metro apps:

Right click in dead space (empty) and a menu will post at the bottom of the app with options/buttons. Right click again to dismiss if not needed.

Moving mouse to upper right in all metro apps just as on START will bring up the settings and preferences for each. This will contain some common preference options too.

Moving the mouse to the left side will bring up the task bar to close apps and for switching.

All WIN-(key) shortcuts still work as before, as some listed above.

Same with command line as well. (admins and power users =])
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
feel free to put screen shots up, ive linked in to your posts so if you want to provide supporting information then all the better :) ill not put them in the first post tho to keep it simple.

How do you pin apps to desktop taskbar?
[Windows 8 General] mcosmin222:
right click app >pin to taskbar.
[Windows 8 General] ChrisKringel:
Does anyone know how to show up the Media Apps controls in desktop mode without pressing the media keys? When the media app plays music (and consumes around of 300MB RAM btw.) and you are in the desktop view you can press the volume keys on your keyboard to bring up a mini player that shows the current track and allows to play/skip/rewind/etc.. Is there a mouse way (or keyboard shortcut) to bring this up without the media keys?
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
but that doesn't allow you to pin "apps" specifically metro apps, it just lets you pin desktop programs.
[Windows 8 General] hanswurst24:
So far I know it's not possible to pin metro apps to the desktop taskbar.

Would be interesting to know if there's a way, but I haven't found one (and doubt there's one ^^ )
[Windows 8 General] mcosmin222:
Sorry, didn't know you were asking about "specific" metro apps.

So far, this isn't supported. YET. Remember this is still beta. The problem will probably be fixed in the future.
[Windows 8 General] ShadowEO:
Anyone know if pressing the Metro App Bar "Uninstall" button uninstalls non-metro programs if you press it on one?

Also if your in a metro app while Music is doing it's thing and you open the app bar, there's music controls there too.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
Uninstall button on a non-metro program seems to bring up add remove programs
[HTC Sensation] valefour:
I flashed this and it's great but claims to have free tethering but when I turn it on it connects but doesn't let Internet pass through. Should I use a downloaded tether app like open garden or does the htc hotspot work for anyone else?

Thanks ahead of time.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
No mine does not work but its a known issue with ordroidn but I'm tethering again thanks to a wonderful app called WiFi tether. At first I thought it doesn't work but found out it was my settings that were incorrect. Once I got the settings correct I was up and tethering in no time! It's a great App! If you need help with settings just let me know and I'll help! But this application really works! I'm finally tethering again! I'm so happy! You might want to try this app if you want to tether, remember get the settings right and you will be tethering also in no time!
[HTC Sensation] valefour:
I tried that app, didn't work for me.

What setting did you use?

I tried what was mentioned in the app description off the market.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] pinky059:
I have seen many many articles on smali/baksmali and I get confused by all the different ways it can be done and the parameters used.

Now, my question to all the ROM dev's: Do you typically use any additional commands other than smali, such as, -b -l, to for debugging and/or changing registers to .locals?

Or do you most just use the smali command??
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g440i:
I have a Defy, installed the 4.5.1 DHT25 rooted SBF.

Then I install CM9 using the instructions stated in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1618904

When I reboot, it goes to flash rom screen, showing error:

Should I install the CM9 kernel as stated?

or as I'm using the 2.3.6 Defy+ SBF, I don't need to install CM9 kernel?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjgowtham:
Ya u should install

I think cm9 won't work with 4.5xx kernels
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksy+:
You are using a 2.3.6 DEFY+ SBF? It's bl6 or bl7, either way you can not flash those kernel zips, they are meant for lower bl versions. Make sure you are flashing a Gingerbread (or jordanplus or DEFY+, it's named in many ways) ROM and skip the kernel flashing step.

What the hell? See this - link. Can you see 4.5.x in the middle of the name of every of those stock sbf files? Any ROM built for Gingerbread will work with any of those kernels.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kayyappan:
Hi,

That partially answered my query. I would welcome if you could answer my query in some detail.

On my defy with green lens I first ported original stock Froyo then installed GGL ROM. After that I installed CM9-NIGHTLY-120617-Defy.zip but did not install any kernel.zip as suggested by other forums. And then installed gapps-ics-4.0.3-20111217 and most of the things including Opera Mobile, Camera except panorama/FC on stop thereof and GPS and few apps that I use. Opera Mini is not working where I live even via 3G.

Now my question was whether any GB kernel marked for Defy (or even Defy+) work for such CM9-ICS update.

My current kernel via GGL is 2.6.32.9-ga28fcc4fdc376@zch68lnxdroid12 #1 Wed Apr 6 15:55:29 CST 2011.

Is there any other better kernel than the above that you my suggest?

Thanks.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksy+:
If you flash a Gingerbread kernel (also named CM9 kernel) your camera won't work. Green lens doesn't have compatible drivers on Gingerbread.

Why would you want Opera Mini when you have Opera Mobile working?

If you want a fully functional ROM, I suggest you switch to some of the CM7.2 builds or MIUI Pikachu Edition or WIUI GB. These are all great, stable, fast and pretty much bug-free.

As for the kernels, changing them doesn't help much in my experience, but I do know that Epsylon somehow added some libraries (thought they are onlu meant to fix wifi tethering on CM9 as far as I know) in the Froyo kernel available on his site. You could try it - http://defy.wdscript.fr/kernel/ . (This one: kernel-froyo-222-179-4-signed.zip)

I see that you used the oldest gapps possible, I'm not sure why. Get the latest zip from here (ics version is for CM9, yes) - http://goo.im/gapps/

So, what I suggest to you if you want to stick with CM9:

1 - get the latest gapps, get that kernel and you already have the latest CM9

2 - full wipe (data/cache/dalvik)

3 - install zip - kernel

4 - install zip - ROM

5 - install zip - latest gapps

6 - wipe cache and dalvik (not necessary)

7 - reboot and see how it goes

Panorama still won't work after that, that's for sure, but I don't know what other problems you've experienced....
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjgowtham:
But why doesnt it work with 4.5.x kernels?

Mine s defy ...I'm using cm9 ( defy + gb kernel build) so cm9 doesnt bootup wid those kernels...why?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksy+:
I really can't figure out what you are saying. Which CM9 build are you talking about exactly? Which kernel(s?) are you talking about exacly? Would be good if you could give me the links to both, so we can resolve the confusion :p
