Do you think I can just flash a US version over it? I'm wanting to flash the official ICS, US version over it. I'm afraid I'll brick or it'll be unstable. What do you think?:/
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmoore:
I'm on stock ROM with tablet mode enabled (changed DPI in build.prop) and this is my home screen. I really like the app launcher being the discrete little icon in the top corner but I have no idea how to change settings to get that there on another ROM. I've loaded several different ROMs but always end up restoring my backup just for that launcher!

Can anybody tell me what that is and how to configure it on other ROMs?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redmonke255:
That's the stock launcher in tablet mode.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmoore:
I knew the answer would be simple. Thank you! So if I want that on another ROM I can just extract Launcher2.apk from this one and install elsewhere? Or do I need other files too?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redmonke255:
Just put the other rom into tablet mode via dpi and it'll do it automatically. Or use paranoid android and select everything to be tablet without changing DPI.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmoore:
I had tried that on Paranoid but was still left with the phone launcher. I'm going to play around a bit tonight though. I've got 3 or 4 ROMs downloaded and I'll see which one I can make work. Thanks again.
[HTC One X] mattswart:
I'm an X ios user, pun intended :eek: In a Jailbroken ios environment all 3rd party/unsigned app development is housed under an app called Cydia. Within Cydia you can add developer repositories that host their apps,tweaks etc... Cydia takes all your repositories and creates a directory where you can search or browse by category. Essentially, all tweaks/apps are available for all phones; you just need cydia.

After fiddling around with custom roms like Android Revolution HD and ViperX, I'm starting to see access to tweaks universally is not a reality in the droid world. Though I'm hoping that I'm completely wrong and somebody can show me the light.

Am I able to install the following features on ARHD? or are they solely available in ViperX? are there other tweaks or apps that offer these features?

-Remapping capacitive keys for short hold

The recent HTC update enables this for the menu key, however viper enables all 3 keys.

-Quick Setting, and the ability to move and remove quick settings items.

-Disabling the HTC script that buggers the wi-fi and network between 12am-7am

-Quad Core Cpu usage info Notifications

-Quick theming abilities

Any help is much appreciated!
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
It's all tweaks, especially the WiFi-killing one that was first developed by J4n87, which also makes the ViperX ROMS. It's also available as a separate app in the Themes and App forums :D

For Home and Back, maybe why many ROMS don't offer fully costomizable remapping is cos many are satisfied with what those buttons already do, while the ViperX team just gives you everything to mess with, and you gotta help yourself if you mess it up. :)
[HTC One X] mattswart:
Are there ways to achieve this tweaks without a custom rom?
[HTC One X] sun_strings:
If by 'without a custom rom' you mean you want these tweaks on the Stock rom then as per my knowledge the answer is No. I might be wrong. But

I had suggest flash the new version of Viper i.e. 2.0.1 . In my opinion it is as stable as the stock ROM and definitely much better with all the tweaks you get. It looks just like the stock rom with no visible changes. Has just an addition 'Viper tweaks' section in the settings where the extra tweaks are available. It never crashes or gets stuck, is much more smooth than the stock rom and the battery life is also much better.

Let me know if I helped by clicking thanks :)

i am using 12/08 buid. i have some questions. When the phone is turned on level of charging is showing 35%. If I imidiattely turn it off whit the charger pluged in then shows it 56% !!!!???? I tried every battery fix and every rom i found on the net.Before this i had latest cm7 and it showed always the same level of charging whenever is turned off or on.

Thanks in advanced
[Defy General] nidhish91:
Try a clean flash and then see if it still stays.
[Defy General] andrijaaki:
what di You mean Clen flash.?
[Defy General] kdarknight:
Try to wipe everything before flashing your new ROM. Like delvik cache & battery stats also. Maybe it helps :)
[Defy General] neo.ank:
Maybe your battery has worn out which is one of the causes for battd/cc_file to read incorrect battery data from battery daemon and display it.

In that case the sudden bump it shows can be reduced but technically it won't help much.

Failed to boot 4 Starting RSD Mode

The Story:

I started having issues with the phone becoming slower and slower and crash prone so i figured this would be a good time to flash an alternate rom. I have had root for some time and i unlocked the boot loader probably about two weeks ago. I had tried a few roms by Th3Bill and i kept having issues so i thought id try to re-lock the boot loader as i couldn't flash any of his roms even with is recovery in place to see if unlocking it again would solve my issue. Also i was running 2.3.4 NOT 2.3.5 so it wasn't due to that.

I just followed the steps outlined here from Link:

Relocking without Full SBF flash

Factory reset phone Menu/Settings/Privacy/Factory Data Reset DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP

Reboot phone into fastboot mode: VOL down/Power. Use VOL down to scroll though options til you see "fastboot" then VOL up to enable. and connect phone to computer

Open command prompt in the moto-fastboot folder and type the following using the <enter> key after each command:

moto-fastboot devices

moto-fastboot erase recovery

moto-fastboot flash recovery stock_recovery.smg

moto-fastboot reboot

Disconnect phone from computer

Start RSD Lite on your computer

Reboot phone into RSD mode: VOL down/Power. Use VOL down to scroll though options til you see "RSD" then VOL up to enable.

Connect phone to computer.

Flash nopudding4u.sbf.

Close RSD Lite and disconnect phone.

Reboot phone

Once i completed the Flash nopuding4u.sbf step it failed giving the status: "Failed flashing process. Failed Flashing process. Phone[0000]: THe "Secure_Motorola_Flash" Interface could not be found. The super-file is secure and for re-flash; the phone needs a super-file that is not secureand not for reflash. (0x7066);Phone connec"

It is not just booting to the first Motorola Dual Core Technology splash screen and showing:

Failed to boot 4

Starting RSD Mode

I've been looking for a solution to the issue for about 30 minutes and have found nothing helpful.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Doballa:
Nopudding4u.sbf relocks your phone, however I would recommend using the 198_7.sbf file instead. U can still unlock with pudding.sbf but you will be able to get back running.. after u flash the stock sbf u will probably need to go into recovery and do a factory reset.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jayalaba:
Did you fix,

Hello, did you fix your phone. i am in the same issue now.. please guide me or help me to fix the phone.I have been trying for 3 days,, thanks.

Tried to flash MIUI without unlocking the bootloader

It is was initially stuck on failed to boot 2 and Starting RSD mode. Then I used RSD lite to flash the stock sbf, and my computer went to sleep in the middle of the flash and failed. Now it is stuck on Failed to boot 4, Starting RSD mode, Battery is too low to flash.

I am not in the US right now, so cannot take it to the Sprint store. PLEASE HELP!!!:(

After leaving my phone to update itself, I can back to my phone not working. There is nothing on the screen. I tried turning it it back on - nothing happened. I tried taking the battery out - nothing happened. I tried plugging it into a wall charger - nothing happened. I googled this problem and it says I should go into recovery mode. I tried that but it doesn't even go to recovery mode. PLEASE HELP. WHAT HAPPENED TO MY PHONE? And what can I do?

I had a variant of this on my old Evo 4G OG, and the nerd in me really loved it. I couldn't find a version for the S3 yet, so I upconverted the old images to 720x1200 and slagged the text and rewrote them to match the S3.

Do i just rename it to bootanimation.zip and put it in /system/media?

Or do I put it somewhere else?

I put it in /data/local after renaming it to bootanimation.zip and it works great. Very nostalgic.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
/data/local/bootanimation.zip is preferable, since you don't have to remount /system rw.

And there's still hundreds of millions of PCs with this traditional BIOS, so there's nothing to be nostalgic about yet. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Adminkiller:
Yeah figured data/local was better.

One time I think i wished my boot time was longer to get to part1

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crash822:
It never loads part 1. After part 0 finishes it shows black screen until phone finishes booting.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheScaryOne:
I have no idea why it won't play the second part. I've tried renaming it, changing settings in the desc.txt file, merging both parts together to form one large part0. Either it fails to load completely, or stops at the end of part0. Maybe there's something wrong with the .png files from part1? I redid them in the same batch as part0 though, in GIMP, so I don't know why they won't work.

Edit: Something was wrong with the second batch of files. I reopened them and rexported them in GIMP and now it works. I think maybe 7-zip was compressing them? I'm not sure, but the .zip is larger now.

New Link

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crash822:
it did play the second part but it isn't looping. Shows the android logo once then goes to a black screen.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
Yeah, if you want to loop you have to modify it.

FWIW, I pngcrushed all the images in the .zip so it loads faster, and that reduced it to 8.4M from 12M. I also changed the FPS to 24 (phones should be 24; tablets 30) and made the last part loop.

720 1200 24
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1

I might keep this one for a while. :)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MCKang25:
Do you think you can post a zip with the modifications you have.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
Thanks to TheScaryOne for doing the hard work of actually modifying the initial version with our S3-specific info! All I did was tweak it & repackage it.

UPDATE (8/22): version 3

- fixed resolution by changing canvas size from 720x1200 to a proper 720x1280 HD, and centering vertically. ImageMagick snippet: for i in *png; do mogrify -extent 720x1280 -gravity center -background black $i; done

- fixed 1pixel offset in bios screen text

- split into more parts to allow for better timing & pauses

- tweaked pauses between all transitions, and added a 1second pause after the initial energystar bios screen

- added very quick fadeout from bios & quick fadein to android with extra pause

- added ClockWorkMod flashable zip version

UPDATE (8/20): version 2

- pngcrushed images to reduce file sizes

- changed fps to 24 from 30 to be more phone-friendly

- removed the redundant ascii-android in the first part (since he's in the next part that loops), so now the zip is even smaller (6.6MB)

- added a 2 second pause after the bios screen finishes so you can actually see it before it switches to the andy loop

- added a 1 second pause between each andy loop so it's less spazzy

Downloads:

Bootanimation.zip manual install: S3Biosbootanimation_v3.zip

To install this, simply copy it to /data/local/bootanimation.zip using adb or your favorite root explorer-ish app.

ClockWorkMod recovery / TWRP flashable version: CWM-S3Biosbootanimation_v3.zip

This CWM zip simply installs the bootanimation to /data/local/bootanimation.zip, which overrides your ROMs bootanimation, but doesn't OVERWRITE /system/media/bootanimation.zip. Just delete /data/local/bootanimation.zip if you want to go back to the ROM's animation.

When flashing it you'll see proper credit given, as below:

Hey - TheScaryOne... sorry to 'step on your toes', but maybe use this revised version in your OP?

Also, I think may remake this with my own twist. Stay tuned for a 720x1280 native version (not a blurry upscaled version).

EDIT: Nah... I like the current version (With tweaks). Thanks scary.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheScaryOne:
The only upscaled part of the part0 file is the Energy Star logo, and the lines in the second half. Everything else was scrapped and rewritten in the PerfectDos font. I did enable AA and Hinting on the text, all of the dots over the i's were touching the bottoms unless I did that.

I got really lazy on part1 and just upscaled it. I didn't want to have to recolor each individual letter and I think by the time I finished the first part it was two or three in the morning. :silly:

I tried going through and pngcrushing those files, maybe I'm just not getting the implementation of the tool. I like the flexibility and broad support of PNG, so I guess I'm gonna keep messing with it until I learn it properly.

It looks great and not blurry on my phone, but I bet on a tablet that would change greatly. Crap. I can't believe I did all of that and didn't double check that the display was 720x1280, not 1200. >.< Oh well, live and learn.

If you'd like my .xcf files of the last frame of both parts of part0 with all of the text you're welcome to it. You could even customize it to your particular roms and SD card, but it looks like you're rocking a 64GB card too. Did you score it on the Amazon father's day deal?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
No worries - looks good. And 720x1200 is fine; it just means there's 40 pixels of black margin at the top&bottom.

That was the same perfect dos font I settled on when I started (and then scrapped) redoing it. Had to use an authentic VGA BIOS font :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheScaryOne:
It does have to be authentic. I think the original animation was done with the windows Console or Lucida Console font, and it just didn't look right.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] escknx:
Is it flashable with recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Adminkiller:
Not in its current form. Just rename the zip to bootanimation.zip and place it in /data/local and set permissions.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ScudMuffin:
This is my first bootanimation mod, what do you mean by set permissions (and how)? I'm guessing I need to use an app with root access to add the file? I normally use AirDroid for moving around files.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
It is now. Added a CWM-flashable version to my post above.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] electech13:
Was wondering what deviation I could use to install this? I don't know if its my rom (kyan) or kernel (ktoonez) but the boot animation uses a different set if files/method to run... it doesn't use a bootanimation.zip in data/local or system/media. I tried both methods here but then found out my bootanimation does load from system/media but is a couple of files. Ie, bootsamsung.qmg and that's the file that runs my boot animation.

So in my situation what option (if any) do I have to install and run this boot animation?
