Omega Works Great! Thank you.

This worked Great on my rooted SPH-L710 with customized stock rom.

I just copied the files to the correct directories for boot and shutdown and set the permissions to be exactly like the original files. (uncheck all 3 execute settings)

Great work.

Now all I have to do is figure out how to change the phone settings from Sprint to Lycamoble (runs on T-Mobile network)

Lycamoble works great around here for only @ $20. & change with basic data (though I use wifi for any heavy data) so I never have any issues.

Lyca uses sim cards so I have to configure the on board sim settings etc. I know that's going to be complicated. Maybe I can just give them the specs and they will do it remotely? Will see.

I was wondering if anyone could turn this into a flashable zip? I'm a huge fan of the stock One X boot animations. The down animation isn't really important but if you can get it to work i'll be very grateful. :D:good:

Here's some animations I found. Credit goes to the source.

I finally found this page. I stumbled on it a while back but lost it. Anyways, I had a question about setting this up on my one x international. I'm using venom 3.7.4 and wanted more clarification on if this is compatible? Now from reading the thread I'm seeing that I must find the original boot file. I wanted to know if it's labeled the same? basically just a swap?

This is evo 4g lte forum how do we know? Look for it with a root explorer. It's going to have at least boot animation in the name

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thefsfempire:
Just put bootanimation.zip in the appropriate folder (/system/media maybe? It moved at Android 4 I think). Depending on the resolution of the image (or the device it's coming from) it may not fit perfectly but it's easy to fix by cutting out the logo and pasting it into an appropriate sized black box.

EDIT: Follow Post #2 from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2343377 using the bootanimation.zip you wanted.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I have a very strange problem. I can't decide if there's something wrong with TWRP or with my Nexus 4. Here's the series of events:

1) I want to backup my phone using TWRP 2.3.2.3 that I have installed.

2) Battery is at ~58%

3) I plug the N4 into my wall charger.

4) Reboot into TWRP and start a backup, with everything checked to backup, using compression.

5) TWRP shows battery is "58%+" (I assume "+" means charging)

6) A couple minutes into the backup the screen goes dark.

7) I press the power button and get a battery charging symbol. I press again and eventually boot into Android.

8) Battery is at 1-2%

How can my battery go from ~58% to almost 0% in two minutes, especially when it's on the charger?

To make things even more strange:

1) I wait until battery is charged to 100%

2) Reboot into TWRP and start the exact same backup.

3) It completes successfully, reboots into Android, and battery now shows at ~92%

What is going on here?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asawoszc:
Slight battery loss is normal upon a reboot. As to your first issue... beats me. I doubt it's a problem with the phone. Maybe a one off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I'm not so concerned about the battery going down when backing up. I would expect that. Although with it being plugged in you wouldn't think...

But the part where it suddenly dropped to near 0%... if it only happened once, maybe, but this has happened twice when my battery was not at or near 100%. I suspect it would do it every time.

I was just wondering if anyone else had experienced something like this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asawoszc:
As a constant ROM/MOD flasher over the past 2 weeks of having this phone I have not had any similar issues.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahalford:
Loosing 20-30% at once after doing something like backup in recovery is unlikely, but possible.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
Have you ever flashed/backed up using TWRP when battery wasn't near full?

I have a Nexus 7 and have never had this issue.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
Even when plugged in?

What about a 50-60% drop after two minutes of backing up?

If I'm the only one, I might have to RMA my phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahalford:
Try 2-3 times the same scenario, then switch to CWM and repeat the procedure. Then you'll know where is the problem, for sure.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
That sounds like a GREAT idea. Thanks, I'll try that. Although I was hoping to use TWRP because it compresses backups, and my N4 is in danger of running out of space. But it would be worth trying just to see if it works.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattSkeet:
I doubt you can charge whilst in recovery. I'm sure cwm will not let you charge even of you shat your pants ....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I thought charging would be a hardware thing, so it should do that no matter what your phone was doing. ?? Besides, TWRP shows a "+" next to the battery percentage when plugged in. It's not there otherwise, so...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DangKid:
I've had this issue happen a few times on my i777 S2. The phone would randomly reboot and the battery would drop down to <10%. I've had it happen at an original 90%, 50%, you name it. I chalked it up to issues with the battery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
Ok, so I installed CWM, but then ran into some threads that said it had issues with JB 4.2. As in, it doesn't know how to properly handle the new "/sdcard/0/" folder structure that was introduced for multi-user support. So, I chickened out and went back to TWRP. But then TWRP did another 55% battery to 0% battery crash again. Only when I have a lot of battery left will it actually complete. *sigh* I will try CWM again, at a similar battery level, to see what happens.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
So what did you do with that phone? I'm considering an RMA, especially since I seem to be the only N4 owner on here with this issue.

When mine crashes, it doesn't finish the backup and it goes to a blank screen. Only after having it plugged in for a minute or so will it actually start up. Like the battery was completely empty. And it only seems to happen when the % left is under maybe 70%. It's always completed in the 90% range.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prod1702:
RMAing this early in the life of the phone is a waste. How do you it isnt a bug with twrp. I would wait it out for a bit. I also feel nanodroids are over rated. Titanium Backup makes things so easy. Since the bug happens only when doing that one thing it sounds like a bug with twrp.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I can't imagine a bug in recovery that is able to deplete your battery 50%+ within 30 seconds. Another weird thing happened: I was at ~70% and then rebooted into TWRP, which then immediately had the battery at ~20%. I rebooted back into Android and it had the same thing. I didn't even kick off a backup or anything. ??? See the screenshots here to see the two dramatic cliff drops I've had, one earlier today the other a few minutes ago.

I will wait on the RMA to see how things go WITHOUT using TWRP for backups. I think nandroids are very annoying to make and use, but I didn't want to learn how to use Titanium (it *looks* complicated). I think I'll look into that now though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahalford:
Do us a favor...:cool: There is no issues with CWM & 4.2. Do your CWM checks, don't waste time.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I'm not sure what all the issues were that I was reading about, but one I experienced was not seeing the CWM backup folder when connected to my computer. I like to transfer them there to save space on my phone. CWM puts it in the wrong folder for that in JB 4.2, although I think it can be moved.

I'm looking into Titanium now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I have to say, as a former iPhone 3GS owner, that Apple made all this backup/restore stuff drop dead simple. Completely and utterly automatic even. Your average user would NOT be able to figure this out on an Android phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DangKid:
It wasn't that much of an issue for me since I had multiple batteries. It would happen about once a week. The battery would soon and I would pop in a new battery. Ended up selling the phone to fund my Nexus.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prod1702:
Titanium backup is really easy to use. The pro version of it is even better. Titanium backup is one of those must have root apps.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I have the Pro version of Titanium and have now set it to backup my apps + data and then copy to Google Drive. The latter part was very flaky, but whatever. I just really wish there was a good way to make a full backup of my phone without using up the internal space, which is very limited on my N4. I hate having to use part of it for backups.

So is Titanium reliable when it comes to restoring apps + data to a new ROM? I'm still switching them out every so often to see what I like best. It's what I liked about TWRP/CWM, being able to easily get a full backup and restore everything back to the EXACT way things were before I did a full wipe and install of another ROM. Of course, with this way you have to reinstall/configure everything with a brand new ROM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ostar2:
Yes, that is what I use. And you can create a flash-able update.zip file. I have not yet tried but I would assume it works because every thing else works fine. Also, you try installing TWRP 2.3.3.0. It can be found [URL="http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/129]here[/URL]. Follow the instructions on the page and it should work properly. I hope this helps. :) :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I checked for a new version a couple days ago and didn't see that. Must be brand new. We'll see if it still has the same problem. Thanks!

Also, I posted this in the TWRP forum, where others are having the exact same issue I am. In response, I created an "issue" on TWRP's github page. If anyone wants to comment there:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] very.goot:
OP, I had something similar happen with my phone. I had it at 100%, then started a backup. My phone got extremely hot, and shut off half way through the back up. I ended up with the red LED of death, and have since RMA'd my phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
Hmm, I think I know what you mean by the red led of death. When my phone goes dark after a failed backup, my led blinks red, alternating with an on-screen battery symbol. It always seemed to me that it was stuck in some kind of boot loop, until I plug it in to my wall charger and forced a hard boot. For some reason it takes the original wall charger to work. Plugging in to my computer or using my Nexus 7 charger doesn't work.

I never really noticed if my phone was getting too hot though, like it's a heat issue. I don't know...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calanizzle:
Really? I have never lost more than 5% with my N4 with TWRP and s2 with CWM..

Backups are around 1GB+
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
I'm beginning to think this is some kind of "virtual" battery loss instead of a real one. Yesterday I did a backup when my battery was at 99%. Within two minutes of backing up with TWRP, I was back at the blinking red LED, a screen that alternated between a battery symbol and blank, and (I suspect) 0% battery. This is the first time it's done this when the battery level was high. Plugged it into the wall, waited ten minutes, held down power to boot back into Android. It was at 1%, let it charge for about an hour and it was back up to 100% charged.

That, to me, sounds VERY quick to charge from 0%. I wonder if my phone is being tricked into thinking it has no battery when it actually does. This isn't battery drain, it's a battery cliff, as seen in the picture. Notice that it gained back 50% of it's battery life within about 15 minutes.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlasr:
I have similar issue with TWRP 3.2.3.2 on completely different device (MTK 6575 based). Battery 'drop' is not as drastic as yours, about 5 - 15% immediately after booting into recovery but I strongly believe this is TWRP related stuff since CWM does not exhibit such a behavior. Also, when TWRP just booted, it takes anything from 1 to 5 minutes to update battery percentage and ALWAYS starts with 50% shown.

As a matter of fact, I found this topic by googling battery issues with TWRP. :)

p.s. Just read through the rest of TWRP related topics on the site and it seems for Nexus 4 they just try to "mask" problem with battery by updating the kernel in a way CPU cores are downclocked to 1GHz. I mean, I am using completely different kernel and have the same issue so it must be fixed in TWRP code I guess, not to "mask" the problem with another patch. IMHO, this is not good programming practice as porting to different devices would require messing up with kernels as well. Just my 2 cents.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lupick:
No boot after TWRP battery problem

I had the same issue but I was not able to boot the phone anymore.

I've connected it to the wall charger for a whole night but the red is still blinkng red. I was able only to enter in fastboot connecting the phone to my PC keeping the pwr+vol down button pressed.

then I've restored the factory image; but the phone can not boot. I've also tried to keep the pwr button pressed for more than 2 min bot no luck.

any idea how to recover it?

thank you
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
On top of the "red LED of death" issue, entering TWRP sometimes drops my battery anywhere from 5% to 50%. One time I didn't even do anything and it still dropped the battery a significant amount.

I think TWRP updates the battery stat on a regular interval, not just when the battery actually changes. I see mine drop a couple percentage points every so often. Before it enters the "battery cliff", that is.

I may have to go back to CWM, as much as I don't want to. I can't have my phone entering a near-death state when I back it up.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
My phone was blinking red while also showing the battery charge symbol on-and-off. I was able to boot again by plugging in for maybe ten minutes and then holding down the power button. I may have also held the volume down, I don't recall. Anyway, it eventually came back up.

Sorry, I'm not sure what happened to your phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] very.goot:
That is exactly what happened to mine. I tried for hours to get it to boot, but could only get two seconds into the google logo before it shut off. Flashing completely back to stock didn't help. Fortunately for me, I got my replacement about ten days after I ordered it. But I hear replacements are now looking like 3-5 weeks. Don't quote me on that, though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwappy:
Since I started this thread, I think I better post the solution. I updated to the latest TWRP and my problem appears to have been fixed. I'm now able to make compressed backups without my phone shutting off. Or at least I've done it a couple times without issue. Apparently it was an overheating issue. They fixed it by underclocking the CPU, or something.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razball:
Well this has happened with me and its from literally just going in the twrp recovery not doing anything it immediately says 2% But my 2% lasts like 5 hours so its some how telling the phone that it's low on battery when it's not it just thinks it is.

If anyone has a fix please tell me because I love twrp so much but I do hate not knowing where my percent is and I flash a kernel practically every day.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negativefx:
I can confirm this problem on my mako as well. I ran into this issue around 3-4 months back with TWRP and ended up switching to CW but I recently came back to TWRP. Still a problem. Yesterday, my phone was at 95% and the backup completed without any problems. Today, I was at 91%, ran a backup, waited 5 minutes, looked over and there's a nice red LED of death. I have found that if you let it 'boot loop' on the charging screen for a few minutes, then unplug it from the wall, then plug it back in, you'll get the charging animation rather than the static battery icon with the lightning bolt. That's your key to getting it to charge and recovered without having to flash back to factory.

Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to switch back to CW again. Going from >90% charge to 0% in less than 5 minutes isn't something I want to put my poor battery through again.

Lastly, I think it has something to do with compressed backups. Disabling compression appears to work around the issue.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venborg:
I can confirm the same problem as well, though not on the Nexus 4 but on my Galaxy Nexus. It happened as late as today; I started on 54% or something, made a backup, rebooted the system and my battery was down to 21%. I find it VERY strange.. And it's not the first time, I think it has happened 2 or 3 times totally! I don't get it..
