ive been trying to get a boot animation to work. ive tried the test image and it work so i went and replaced it with a new one but it was to small 480X800 so i found a new one that is 720X1280 but all im getting is black screen. im rooted on a stock rom and im running a custom kernel

also im placing it in data/local

permissions are fine

edited in note++

image files are jpg and lables 001-101

tried removing part1 incase it was having issues doing both part 0 and 1 but still no luck just black screen and the default sound

---------- Post added at 07:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

SOLVED, winrar was causing errors had to use 7zip and change encryption type to aes-256 and no compression. still wont play the second part so im just going to try combining them into one longer animation instead of 2 separate ones

combining the two worked.

man all this just because i installed a kernel then messed up my original bootanimation lol
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] neko0nna:
Hi Anbech, i'm pretty noob at this thing, and after going through your posts a few times i've finally managed to get the boot animation i want. But the boot animation isn't created by me. Of course credits would go to jkrough0728 for creating this halo 4 boot animation. He did it for Samsung Epic 4G but his zip file manage to work in S3. The only thing is the resolution is abit off for s3. Are you able to resize the resolution so that it won't look as weird? I've tried changing the desc.txt to 720x1280 but it still looks kinda weird.

Here's the link to his thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1157328 (i've mentioned to him that i would be using his boot animation in his thread and he is okay with it ^^)

Hi my friend!

First of all, thanks for your posts! They are awesome!

Second, i did exactly what you said to do it!

When i flashed the "enable file" it restarted the system, and now i cant get my phone back on system. It freezes at the bootanimation forever!

I kind of lost here! Can you or someone help me out?!

i downloaded from rom toolbox the BAs, then i moves to system/media

then i flashed the enable file

then it restarted.

p.s. i think i screw something. whe i flashed on cmw, i flashed the enable file as an update./

help me out here, please! cant get the phone to home screen. it stuck on boot animation.

Thanks everyone!

Peace
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] justnoone:
No you did it right exactly, try to flash the disable.zip file to return you back on your system. It will disable the bootanimation on your system. In the middle of the previous posts, there was an instruction that you need to edit the desc file looping, you need to replace the zeros(0) to one(1) after the p. It is simple to extract the desc file via winrar or any compression tools and edit the desc file with notepad ++, save it drag the file back to zip files

Help!

Can anyone help me out? I installed Rom Toolbox with the intention of changing my boot screen. When I noticed the boot screen doesn't cover the whole screen but is only in the middle, I went to the options and resized it to the SGS3s pixel height/width, it did warn me that the boot screen might not work properly after, HOWEVER now my whole screen stays black, as in turned off, the phone is booted up cause I can hear the unlock sound when I swipe my finger but I can't turn on the screen... what is this? How can I fix this without being able to see anything on my phone? I can still get into CWM recovery and I can mount the phone on my computer but I don't know how to make the screen be able to turn on again... any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

I have found an app that makes your Android Device Ad Free!

But of course you will need a rooted phone for this. :P

First download AdFree from Google Play Store and install it.

Then allow Superuser Access.

Then press "boot normally".

Check the first 2 checkboxes and then click on "Download and install hosts".

It will take some time and a message will appear saying that your android device will be adfree.....you do not have to worry about the DNS cache.

Reboot your device and now you have an adfree device!!

Hi ! I'm developing an app which uses a webview with a local HTML. First, I need to set the nationality of the user then pass it to a variable that'll be saved in a js onto the SDCard. That part is done.

But for the moment, i put the variable by hand. I'd like to insert the variables thanks to a spinner. And i don't know how i could do that. Shoud I make another layout and then go into the main webview layout ? Will the variable still pass between those two ?

I followed a tutorial but my app crashes when it starts.

I haven't got a freaking clue of how to make it. Thank you a lot !!!

Looking forward to receiving,

[HTC Desire S] DLloyd:
Please help... I've searched for a resolution but to no avail. I took my Desire S for a replacement screen after being dropped and becoming very pixolated. After the initial screen racement the brightness level was stuck on the highest level, with the battery lasting maybe an hour max. I took the phone back, they replaced the screen again and now, the screen is stuck on the lowest level so in sunlight, you can't see a thing.

Does anyone know if this is possibly either software or hardware related, and if it's possible to fix?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Desire S] TatoValverde:
The desire S has a brightness sensor on top of the screen, left from the htc logo (as well as a proximity sensor). it measures how bright it is (daylight, night, etc) and adjusts the brightness according to the measure. It looks like they changed your LCD but the sensor is still broken.
[HTC Desire S] eifelgeist78:
It measures how bright it is if your setting is automatic. Then the brightness would change

go into settings->display ant see if you're not on automatic or lowest brightness. you can configure it anyway you want

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] stevessvt:
So since the TMo update my AlarmManager partial wakelock seems to be going crazy, I have Better Battery Stats, but it doesnt tell you what is tripping the wakelock. But, I charged my phone last night full and unplugged it to see what kind of draw I would get over night. It used only 3% in 7 1/2 hours, but under battery it wakes up every hour or so. I cant for the life of me figure out what is doing it. I have sync off, google back up off, weather updates set to manual. No facebook or anything like that. Im thinking it may have something to do with the recently updated maps app, but all location reporting inside of maps is off.

Would you bother, or be happy with .5%/hour of battery loss?

I should say that this is on a fresh Odin install of the new updated rom. And before I charged it yesterday I had 34 minutes of AlarmManager partial wakelocks.

I'm using a stock rom:S5830XWKP7
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
Link2sd might give trouble in stock roms if the partition is in ext3 or ext4. Cwm makes an ext3 format pqrtition.

With minitool, make the partition in fat32 format, both partitions as primary, and try link2sd with fat32 and ext2 mount scripts to see if one of them mounts succesfully.

If you already tried this and didn't work, i dunno whats wrong, sorry i couldn't help.

Other solutions would be to flash a custom kernel with init.d support (such as cf-root or battery extender) these support all partition formats and give access to other methods of moving apps to the partition (s2e, int2ext script, amarullz, etc)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forcrp:
I had the same problems and I tried switching around the formats too.

One thing that did work for me, twice, was to completely format the card and recreate both the partitions on the SD card

each time

whenever I flashed a new ROM and was going to use Link2SD or S2E. And I used FAT32 for the Link2SD partition. Formatting only the second partition always gave me the mount error.

Hope this helps!

Not all Aces are equal. I don't know the difference, but I had 2 Aces, the ROM info shows same version of software. On one (older one) EXT3 worked, on the newer one it didn't and I had to use FAT32. Strange. I also noticed one Ace (newer one) is a bit THINNER! Same rooting worked for both Aces...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjg2797:

Why don't you just use the move to SD card function in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjg2797:
That works however the phone internal memory isnt increased and apps are still part on internal memory
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
That's how Link2SD works. Internal memory is still the same, and application data isn't moved to the SD card.

The actual app file, dalvik cache and library files are moved to the SD card.

If you go to the application management system option, you'll see applications are still taking all the memory space they're supposed to take. Well, that's what the phone thinks, but they're actually not.

Of course, all of this and more is included in the official [url="http://www.link2sd.info/faq]Link2SD FAQ[/url], but then again, everyone knows FAQs are not supposed to be read, and I won't be bugging you more about this subject because I too didn't read the FAQ at first, and once asked similar questions.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defmetal96:

WHICH IS A SIILY MESSAGE BOX APPEARS TELLING YOU THAT

(MOUNT SCRIPT CAN NOT BE CREATED. MOUNT: INVALID

ARGUMENT)

BUT HERE IS THE REAL ERROR THAT CAUSED THE MESSAGE BOX

AND IT IS THAT THE PARTITIONS PASS IS WRONGLY CREATED

AND HERE HOW CAN IT BE FIXED U R GONNA OPEN APARTED AND

RECREATE THE PARTITIONS THEN GO TO THE CONFIGURATION PART

AND CHANGE THE DETECTED DEVICE FROM (MMCBLK0)

TO(USBDISK) THEN AUTOMATICALLY THE PATH SHOULD BE

CHANGED FROM (/DEV/BLOCK/MMCBLK0) TO (/DEV/BLOCK/SDA)

AND SURELY YOUR PROBLEM SHOULD BE SOLVED

THEN OPEN THE LINK2SD THERE SHOULD BE A MESSEGE APPEARED

SAYING

AND IF NOT YOU SHALL GO TO THE OPTIONS AND

CHOOSE (RECREATE NEW LINK SCRIPTS) CHOOSE THE PARTITION S

SYSTEM AND HERE IT IS YOU JUST GOT YOURSELF A SUCCESSFUL

LINKING

If IT DIDN T WORK THEN YOU R GONNA HAVE TO FULLYSHUTDOWN

YOUR MOBILE THEN REBOOT

AND I ASURE U IT IS GONNA WORK

In Link2SD, the path is /DEV/BLOCK/MMCBLK1p2 and I can't get that to change. I've tried ext2, ext3, ext4 and FAT32 for the 2nd partition many times over, but can't play ball.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leahcimewol:
Because not all apps move to SD card?!!

Hi the point of Links2SD is to override the normal settings of Android

in other words apps that do not allow you to move them to SD Card

can be moved, even the stubborn ones can apparently be force moved!

Not without consequence though so be careful, some system apps can break apparently! Again this is all just second hand news I have yet to find this out for myself! This App is especially handy for those people who have phones like the Moto G 2nd gen which has only 4Gb of space to play with by the time you have all your apps updated fully and thats just the apps that come preinstalled.

4Gb is nothing these days when you consider that on average most apps in Lollipo and above are 35/50Mb some even 150mb like gmail with al its data included.

Think how quickly your internal space would get used to the point where your phone becomes unusable and system apps start failing! much like yea good ol windoze of yore! (Vista comes to mind!) so that is the reason/s hope this has shed some light? feel free anyone who knows more, to comment and either correct me or elaborate if Ive left something out, cheers

Hi ,

currently I'm running CodenameAndroid 3.3.0 on my Nexus S and everything runs smooth and works perfectly well for me, no doubts. But somehow I constantly get the feeling that the newer our operating system gets our batteries drain faster. Either this or my battery just gets old. However I'm searching for a Rom that has battery saving in main purpose. I dont care about playing games, the operating system or showing off how great my phone is. For this I have my Tablet :p The best solution for me would be a rom which is very low in batterydrain but as smooth as jellybean (maybe just port the transitions over). I know it might be hard to find something like this but is there any rom which matches my perception? Also a nice look would be cool, too ^^
