[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prime80:
No I meant no disrespect i thought i was screwed. you guys are def the best around. so i need what kind of digitizer? i can def do it btw. just seeeing if you could give me a link or title of exact so i dont order the wrong one. And thank you guys again i really appreciate it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Madd-Panda:
Maybe same problem I had

That sounds exactly like the problem I had with my old Dinc 2, as well as a friend's.

What temporarily fixed it for me was chilling it. There is a connection that gets loose/damaged and this fixed it for a time.

Wrap it in hand towel (helps protect it from moisture) and put it in the freezer for 15 minutes. Pull it out and try turning it on.

If it works, you can backup what you need to and move on

If not, it only took 15 minutes out of your day... and maybe some feelings of silliness for sticking your phone in the fridge.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bsmitty83:
I think chillybean is right you need to replace the lcd screen too .

I got mine off eBay , if you look for inc2 parts you can find basically the front half of the phone ( LCD . digitizer, and the plastic surrounding) all you gotta do is disconnect the panels from the board and replace the screen . i think i paid 20$ for the replacement . its alot easier than trying to seperate the glass from the LCD and just replace one of em

Here's exactly what i got , took about an hour to replace

Hello everybody,

I use my MDA III in German, which is fine. However I would like to make a ROM backup from the ROM that is in my MDA. Since T-Mobile doesn't offer for downloading the ROM in the device, I'd like to read it out.

If I would change the ROM to WWE and later would need to be able to put the original German back (because of warranty or anything) for that I need to have the German ROM.

Any ideas for how to read this original German ROM out or where to download it from?

Thanks in advance, bye!

I've used it done an upgrade then reverted back to the rom on the SD Card. You can also then move the backup onto your PC and back to the SD Card using the software described in the above ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/BlueAngel/MDAIII/ntrw.exe

Hey, I'm new to this forum and to android. I have the Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070, it has JB 4.1.2 rooted, and I've installed the CoCore-E 6.2 cwm kernel. I want to install the Pure Vanilla mod, but my problem is that when I'm on recovery mode I can't backup my current rom because the external SDcard is not mounted. On the recovery mode there is an option to mount the SDcard but whenever I trie to mount it, it says "error mounting /sdcard".

I also own a Nexus 7, and I recently flashed a ROM (see link below if you own an N7) with the coolest animations (in/out) that I've ever seen on an Android device. I was able to create a flashable zip (tested on TWRP, not sure about CWM but it should work just fine) using the VillainTheme method that successfully adds these animations to the framework on our S4's. It should also work on any other device running 4.2.2, but I have only tested it on the S4.

EDIT: Here is a demo of the animations in action. Thanks to [MENTION=4616793]123hiten[/MENTION] for the video!

[YOUTUBE]imb9qOdsVDE[/YOUTUBE]

If you don't like them, download the restore zip below to restore your framework to its original state immediately prior to flashing this mod.

Installation Instructions

* Download the zip file: Penguin ROM N7 Animations Port

* Flash with TWRP

* Reboot

* Enjoy your new window animations!

Uninstall/Restore Instructions

* Download the framework restore zip file.

* Flash with TWRP

* Reboot

* You should now be back to your original framework that you had (any prior mods/edits included) prior to flashing the animations mod.

NOTE: I am not a developer, and in no way do I take credit for the animations themselves...I also obtained permission from the original ROM dev before sharing. See "Credits" below for links to the original developers' work that made this possible. Also, I originally posted this in the AT&T Themes & Apps subforum, but figured you all would enjoy it here as well.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
Great!

And really this is truly dependent on user preference...the higher you go on the scale, the animations become smoother at the expense of the device appearing "laggy". The lower you go, your device appears "faster" but you lose animation smoothness.

My personal setup is as follows:

Window Animation: 1.0x

Transition Animation: 0.5x

Animator Duration: 1.0x
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
How odd...the reason for that would be beyond me. I'm guessing your video player has some type of framework dependency that it uses for video processing...were you using the stock video player? If so, maybe try MXPlayer from the Play Store and see if that makes a difference?

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
Technically speaking, the general rule is that the prettier something is on our phone screen, the more juice it eats up. However, the difference here would be marginal enough that you shouldn't notice any deterioration in battery life. MAYBE in a scientific, controlled testing environment someone could find that there's a difference, but I certainly haven't noticed one since I started using the mod.

These animations are slick, (I'm not a teenager, and thats not a typo!), I'm using i9505 with superslimmed MEA pre-rooted firmware. All works lovely.

to keep Apex Launcher homescreen and scrolling down list smooth, I have found I needed the following:

Developer Options:

Disable Hardware Overlays [ticked]

Force GPU Rendering [ticked]

Is there a way to force Apex Launcher to use them for its transitions, this would be greatly appreciated.

Video playback with mxplayer is smooth as always.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] indexmonkey:
The two settings I mentioned keeps Apex launcher quick for screen transitions animation and scrolling down long lists. These animations work great with Apex Launcher.

Touch Wiz is frozen. Maybe this mod replaces all animations with touch wiz...but I gots no love for touch wiz.

What I mean is I how can I use these "Awesome Framework Animations" instead of the animations provided by Apex Launcher for home screen transitions and opening the app drawer?

Sorry for little OT, i'd like know if animations can be ported to all devices using an Xposed Framework module ;)

Inviato dal mio GT-I5500 con Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] CPA Poke:
Actually, yes.

Unzip the installer file, then navigate to vrtheme->system->framework->framework-res.apk->res, and then copy the xml files within each of the anim folders to your computer.

Then pull framework-res.apk from /system/framework on your device and copy to your computer. Use 7Zip or WinRAR to view the apk as an archive. Then navigate to the res folder, and drag and drop all of the xml files from the anim folders in the installer zip to their respective folders in res.

Then close out of 7Zip/WinRAR and push the modified framework-res.apk to /sdcard on your phone.

Then, using adb, run the following commands:

adb shell
su
mount - o remount,rw /system
stop
mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm /data/dalvik-cache/*
reboot

This method backs up your original framework in case you bootloop and need to go back to your original. If that does happen, perform the following commands in adb:

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
stop
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm /data/dalvik-cache/*
reboot
