Change your bootanimation zip files to QMG files is all that will work so far and the QMG editor required is very very expensive .Saying that someone did for SGS1 manage to make QMG boot animation Android Astronaut .

jje
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Avilove.Cullen:
Ok you mean the boot animation should be in .qmg format? ?

Si usted le da respeto luego de tomar Respeto .. Cuidado con él .. ;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] JJEgan:
Stock boot animation is QMG format fro Samsung.

SGS1 and SGS2 both had a kernel mod to allow home brew zipped boot animations to run instead .

SGS allow boot animation via zip file not as of yet its being worked on .

QMG files require a very expensive QMG editor >> Samsung Theme Designer

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Avilove.Cullen:
Ok then it should be something like this, bootanimation.qmg? ?

[Samsung Captivate Glide] FireFury:
Bluetooth voice dialing was working on the AT&T firmware, but it seems that since updating to the Rogers firmware it doesn't - pressing the call button (1 second press on my Jabra Extreme 2 headset) does nothing at all. Redial (double-tap on the headset) works as you would expect.

Some searching found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1558776

But this doesn't seem to help in my case - I've installed Bluetooth Launch, but the call button still does nothing. Even more strange, if I run "adb logcat" then nothing is logged when I press the call button (I expected to see something from the bluetooth subsystem at least saying it had been pushed, even if it couldn't launch an application to deal with it).

Voice search is installed, and works as you would expect when manually launched.

Any pointers would be appreciated - thanks.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Maruzko:
From the previous thread did you disable any security lock on the phone ?

As that was the clincher for me, once disabled security code to unlock/wake up phone the BT button then actually does something when pressed.

Edit: Actually I supposed if the BT button doesn't do anything while the phone is already awake then its something else.

Is there any way i can use the 3d pictures i have taken on my phone to be used as a wallpaper or cant i use hem as wallpapers
[LG Optimus 3D] BigBadSheep:
Normally no

Because the parallax barrier (the one that gives 3D illusion) must be activated through certain programs. And if it would be possible would be a big power eater - just consider how much power is needed to view 3D photos on your phone for 5 minutes...then think about it a whole day.
[LG Optimus 3D] scouse83:
Ok thanks just wondered would be kinda cool to have propa 3d wallpapers tho but yea would kill yea battery big time

PC Companion contains the same update capability as SEUS, just with a few other features too, so use that if it works.

hey, i have xperia x10i and is too slowly , lags very often , so i have Q. about reinstalling android 2.3.3, is it possible to reinstal it legally from official website of sony? or it is possible only, when a new version of android came. Will reinstalling help to boost my cell phone? thanks a lot for answers.
[General Questions and Answers] DD-Ripper:
Since Xperia X10i is an outdated phone with specs lower to current xperia phones, so speed will remain the same even if u reflash firmware.

Install a custom rom for your needs. Or try overclocking.

Or maybe you have tooo many apps installed ? If yes, then remove the unneccessary apps as phone memory also plays a vital role in terms of speed and the less the apps, the less the stress on RAM.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mammt:
Once in a while (I think it's an issue with the reboot option mod) when I reboot my st15i Mini, the apps in the SD card are not recognized properly: they are there, but instead of their usual icons there's a grey icon resembling an SD card. If I turn off the phone normally then turn it on again everything is back to normal, BUT in the launcher menu the icons are rearranged in an awful way. First, the custom order I had is totally scrambled, second (and most important), they are not arranged to fill every "screen" of the menu (12 per screen, was it?), but there are random amounts (from filled screen to 2-3 icons per screen), leaving a lot of holes, and clogging up my menu with 4-5 screens more than needed. Needless to say, if I change order (eg alphabetically) then back to custom, holes are still there, so I have to manually move EVERY icon back to its original place.

Is it a launcher problem, or the fact that something about the apps in the sd card is not loaded correctly? I noticed that the stock apps not installed in the SD (first 2-3 screens of the menu) are never scrambled, nor moved, so it's more likely an SD issue.

(I have rooted st15i with GB/.62 and stock rom/kernel/launcher btw, if that can help)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zxp:
I noticed a similar behavior in my sk17i launcher, with stock (rooted) GB .58 ROM.

Holes started to appear here and there in the launcher out of the blue: I thought it had to be related to installing/updating/uninstalling apps. Oh, and I wasn't using any custom ordering, I was still using the default ordering it had when I bought it (which was by order of installation I think).

Then a couple of days ago I wiped the Dalvik Cache with CWM, and after reboot many more holes appeared (and also some home screen shortcuts inside folder disappeared).

At that point I switched to the Most Used first order.

This means I have no solution for this problem, but I can confirm that there is indeed some strange behavior in the stock launcher.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Yeah, that happens to me sometimes also.

I noticed that it happens after disconecting the phone from PC when not connected as MTP.

The grey icons mean that the apps are loading from the SD card (OS is mounting the card).

I know it's annoying, especially the mess in the drawer, but i also noticed that the problem disappears when connected in media transfer, usb debugging, and since i flashed CyanogenTimescape (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1748576) it never happened to me.

Seems like some roms have some kind of a problem with that, you can try that one (it's also very responsive, fast, and stable), if you're up for the change.

Cheers!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
That grey icon while booting means the app is not loaded yet. Since it is stored on the SD, you have to wait some seconds for the SD to be mounted.

If you plug your phone in MSC mode, for example, SD card is completely unmounted and you'll see the same effect on SD-stored apps.

If you reboot immediately when you notice this, you probably screw up things, and (as you noticed) the same apps will be rearranged because the phone can't load them properly on boot, and it takes some time to "realize" they are on the SD. Therefore, they'll reappear in the last page of the app drawer.

This also happens if you turn your phone on after removing the SD, and maybe even if you unmount manually your SD.

Just use and connect your SD properly, and this won't happen again.

Also: come mai ho la sensazione che tu sia di Napoli? :p
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] motorazrv3:
Create a sd ext partition and move the apps to it. Even in msc mode the apps will not turn grey. It's so, because the sd partition keeps being mounted. That means that all your apps are still usable.

You can read this at the faq section from link2sd.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] najodleglejszy:
thanks, I was having the same problem, connecting in MTP with debugging helped :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
glad i could help :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Twodordan:
I have the same problem on my sk17i (mini pro). Both in the app drawer and with the on screen shortcuts and in folders.

I've had it since day 1.

And you can't get rid of it just by changing the usb connection mode. Because you will eventually want to unmount your sd card, and when you do, your app drawer gets screwed (by how much depends on your luck).

I've also found that this problem can occur after simply having booted the phone. If it takes too long, or the phone is busy with stuff you're in a hurry to do, your SD crap gets screwed up again.

I really don't understand why the app drawer can't just reserve a particular position for the particular app which was occupying it. I mean, on a desktop operating system, your shortcuts remain where they are, regardless if their target is there or not. On Android, they turn to the gray sd symbol, but they also disappear at the slightest breeze like some kind of wusses...

I wonder if it's possible to hard code a custom app drawer with proper persistent positions.

Also, I personally love the 4 corner UI in the minis, as well as the stock timescape widgets and whatnot. So I can't use a custom launcher or rom which doesn't accommodate them and with at least 2 of the 4 rings in the 4 corner UI.

[Acer Iconia A500] jiteshkumawat:
You can follow http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622425 and use Blackthunder's tool if its ok with you. Or I can tell you one more method:

1. Download After OTA from forum section. Search for it you will find a .zip file of about 103 mb.

2. Download and install the Acer a500 drivers.

3. Attach your tablet to the computer.

4. Unzip After OTA and run it.

5. From standard tab select your desired Bootloader and recovery, you can select any except HC Bootloader for running ICS. Remember to select A50X.

6. Remember if you are having ICS rom its OK, but if you do not have ICS Rom than keep one in your sd card to flash after installing the Bootloader.

7. You might also brick up your tab if anything went wrong so be carefull.

[Acer Iconia A500] jiteshkumawat:
Ok, if you are stuck and are unable to run any rom first of all reinstall your boot loader using update.zip file from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113878

Remember select bootloader which you were having previously, i.e. if you were having 3.2 honeycomb than select any one from the lists of 3.2 updates.

Now you can use after OTA, remember your Tab should be running safely for After OTA to work.

Last two days ago, my prime fell off from our bed, my daughter somehow accidentally kicked it. Never thought about checking the camera right away, busy checkin f theres a dent made, fortunately not. However, yesterday, just realized that the camera was busted. Tried to press the back of the prime somehow fixes temporarily, but still it's annoying.... though i am not so fond of using this tablet as a camera, but seems it's incomplete. Should i return this for service or just leave it like this with bused camera. I know it's my call but i wanna hear some of your opinions. Thanks guys....

I doubt the reason the camera quit working is due to the fall, I baby my Prime and it has never taken a lick, yet my camera quit working about a week ago, I get the green scrambled screen like many, many others have gotten with theirs. Either they have poor connections to the board internally, or the software drivers are bad. Only my front works, and I live overseas so getting service is going to be a huge pain.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skarfreak:
This is really sad for some of the prime owners... lets just be hopeful that someday somehow they can find a way to fix this....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoteriX:
It's most definitely hardware. Squeezing the TFP by the camera brings back the camera for a second which makes it 100% hardware. It's likely a loose connection or poor solder joint.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nonpaq:
My rear camera went green and I have never dropped it.

Unfortunately I have unlocked my Prime and therefore "technically" I am out of warranty. I may have to try to RMA it and see if they will fix hardware even if I unlocked it. I also have an LCD Mura and all the weak WIfi and BT issues. I may just wait until any other hardware issues popup and try to get them fixed all at the same time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
yep, this is most definitely hardware related. same thing happened to me and i had to RMA it. they didn't try to pin it on me for CID though, so you should be all set. I had my prime repaired and back in 12 days from sending it.
