Hi Arsradu

I hope you can help me

I wanted to change the boot animation of a custom rom (Epic rom 7.8.24 on Xiaomi Mi Mix - MIUI 9 -).

I remplaced five stock pictures by 5 others, .pgn, same size (1080*2040), same name (01, 02...05).

Compression method to Store. Renamed in "bootanimation.zip".

But the animation isn't functionnal : black screen

The code is the same than stock bootanimation :

1080 2040 5
p 0 5 part0

Permissions file are 644.

There isn't the third line "c" like you.

When i try with the c line, after reboot this line is deleted automatically.

Do you know where is the problem ?

I uploaded the stock zip and my zip.

Thank you.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Hi,

It's been a while since I've written this tutorial. lol.

I took a look at the files you provided. So, the stock animation works, but yours shows a black screen? In my experience, this occurs because of the compression method not being set to Store. Or the permission not being 644. If you say the only thing different about your zip, compared to the stock one, are the actual png files, then I really don't know what to say. Can you check the compression method on the original zip? Maybe that particular one is not set for Store... Maybe it's set to something else? I don't know.

For the c line, I think you might need a second batch of frames added to a part1 folder. Since you only have 5 frames, I don't think there is a point for that. To be honest, I can't test this anymore since I'm no longer using that phone, and I don't use a rooted phone anymore. :)) But that doesn't mean I can't try to help you either way.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] m.gllmt:
Thank you for your reply !

Yes i was in 2013, sorry ^^

But you make me realize on thing : if the compression and extension are ok, and the desc file too, the problem comes from pictures.

I was using 1080*2040 because it is my screen size, but the stock MIUI boot pictures are 1080*1920. I don't know why, but i used this dimension and IT' S FUNCTIONNAL ! I'm Happy :highfive:

Thank you :p
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
LOL. So, I guess there is one more reason why you could see only a black screen: the frames sizes. The more you know. :)) 4 years later, I'm still learning new things.

I'm glad you got it fixed. Great job!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Ra. one:
I have a problem. My system boots up a lot faster than it it is want it to. So is there a way to forcibly execute all the parts even if the system is booted up. I mainly want to know about how should I use the descriptor.

(I know the last descriptor should be 'p' descriptor)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Ra. one:
This is the desc.txt of a bootanimation zip which executes all the parts at least once even if the system has booted. I don't know how that works. Maybe it has something to do with the '0' and '1' written after the part numbers.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Nico Bröse:
Problem with 3 parted bootanimation

So I have the problem that my Bootanimation consists of 3 parts "part0", "part1" and "part2" but part2 is never played. I have also numberd every single picture right and the "desc.txt" file shouldn't be wrong too.

desc.txt file:

1080 1920 30

c 1 0 part0
c 0 0 part1
c 1 0 part2

I hope some one can help me with that.

HTC Sensation 1.27 stuck at boot screen after rom change

Yes yes, and another noob reporting for duty after screwing up the rom proces, it took me about 6 hours today after dozens of guides, broken links, outdated software and offline sites to get my phone rooted and i thought, well, a custom rom would be nice too.

So i tried the rom for Sensation from codenamelungo.net copied the zip on my sd card, installed it from recovery and now im stuck at the htc screen and being the noob that i am i ofcourse did not make a backup and have no clue what to do now

If someone could explain to me in simple words how i can fix this?

My recovery is CWM v5.8.0.9

*** UNLOCKED ***

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.27.000

eMMC-boot

I did the:

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Wipe Cache Partition

Wipe Data/Factory Reset

formatted everything.

Tried relocking it and factory reset but all it does is then booting in recovery menu nonstop on every option i choose.

Another day:

Been on the internet again since i woke up and this is driving me insane, i read many posts with solutions but ofc they dont work for my version or phone damnit. I always have this kind of stuff, why didnt i have the Sensation where stuff go easy, at this point i am hoping to get it to stock again and not ever gonna try flashing custom rom.

I just finished up a couple readings about RUU files which ofc is also driving me insane.

My cid is HTC_e11

version-main 3.33.401.55

So i googled and typed in what was suggest on a post on this forum RUU Pyramid 3.33.401.55 and the only result it links me to is this website in showthread.php?t=1919969

I dl the zip file and what is in it, not 1 .exe file while all posts talking about restoring through ruu talk about a ruu.exe

Pfff, ive read so many posts now on this website and other solutions over the internet i can't even think straight anymore so gonna take a break, was really happy getting a smart phone but i enjoyed 30 min so far ><

Surely hope some1 can assist me with this dilemma
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
relax mate.easy:cool:

do extra 1 step from this guide(flashing boot.img)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631861

or from the same guide do step 2(flashing recovery)

format all parttions except sdcard from 4ext

enable smartflash from it

flash the rom

done
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
As expected, still on bootloop.

I already unlocked it again so i did step 2

when i type adb device it doesnt find anything even though i am connected with usb fastboot

adb server is out of date. killing...

*daemon started successfully*

List of devices attached

Blank, so no devices

So i did the alternative and typed fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

sendig 'recovery'<6116 KB>...

OKAY [ 1.491s]

writing 'recovery'

Okay [8.510s]

finished. total time: 10.004s

Then when i reboot i get stuck in the HTC screen again
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
Ah i see what is done, im in the 4ext recovery menu now, i did the format you said but i cannot find the smartflash, can you point me out where i need to enable that?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
tools

at the bottom of the menu

enable it then install the rom
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
I was too fast, found it but even so thanks for you reply, ok i enabled it, so instal the rom i take it i have to reboot, put it in fastboot usb and than type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img again in cmd?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
no wait!

enable it

flash the rom

reboot normally

done

my previous post was giving you 2 ways to choose

not use both of them together

you missed the word or hehe

edit:the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img is to flash 4ext recovery

so no need to use it again
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
I feel such a noob as those small steps are probably easy for you guys.

I havent done it yet, i enabled it, but how do i flash the rom? i see no option for that, i am sorry for those simple questions but ive never worked with 4ext or any other android programs.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
install zip from sdcard

choose zip from sdcard

navigate to the rom zip

press on it to install
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
i had such high hopes as everything was installing without problems but after reboot, stuck in the htc screen again :(
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Now read carefully and do the extra #1 step from the same guide you've used

That should solve the issue
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
Rz86 and ganeshp, THANK YOU!!! :good:

I was getting a serious headache over this but i got it working finally.

I guess custom roms dont really work with my phone which i am not really happy about but i AM really happy i got it fixed again.
[HTC Sensation] Far_SighT:
This is not a big issue. Just remember that every time you flash a new rom 4ext should say "A pending update to boot parti...........". All roms will work fine.
[HTC Sensation] Kayiro:
Are you sure about that because i've read that alot dont work on s-on with 3.33.401.55
[HTC Sensation] KaiJun:
You shouldn't be getting that with s-on since you don't need SmartFlash
[HTC Sensation] Far_SighT:
You should be able to flash any Rom based on your current firmware.

Regarding roms

the only difference between s-on and s-off is that you cannot flash boot.img from recovery.

For s-on, either you need smartflash, or a manual flash of boot.img via fastboot flash boot boot.img

This is applicable as long as firmware is same.

Happy to help.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
about "A pending update to boot parti...........". appears only when you are changing kernel or flashing a new rom with a different kernel than your current one
[HTC Sensation] iameg:

hey guys, i have the same problem, but it can't install the rom, it says "make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p. Also, E:Error in "rom".zip (Status 1). I have searched the whole internet but to no avail. Need professional help. :(

HELP ! Xperia U ST25i Does Not recognize the SIM CARD !

Hello, please help me, i have a sony xperia u st25i ICS and it doesn`t recognize the SIM Card. I didn`t kicked my phone.

Firstly started to loose signal when i was talking at the phone but, immidiately recover the signal, but from around 4 days it started to not recognizing my sim card, i tried with another sim card but not working, i repaired my phone with PCC but for nothing, same problem, i downgraded the firmware to gb but same problem. The contacts and pins from the mainboard of the phone are good...i don`t know what else to do please help !!! I searched the entire forum but not find a solve to this problem !
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
I suggest you to take out the SIM card and clean the place where you insert the SIM card with a cotton.

It might be so that due to dust.

Hope works mate :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alijaah:
i already did this i also checked and measured the pins from the main board...it`s all good but not working, i read that more people had this problem with xperia phones but noone knows the solution :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
I was thinking about a factory reset but since you downgraded you firmware it's useless.

Did you try also cleaning internal storage?

Are you sure your phone is not on airplane mode?

The other option you have is to sent the phone to Sony mate.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mokiwipeout:
Kind of happened to me too but I fixed it by blowing some air from my mouth to the sim tray... Also, if possible, swap sim cards with a friend of yours for a couple of minutes... If the other sim works, u need a new sim if not... Lets hope ur guarantee has not expired

after the paring i could sync with bluetooth to the sync on my pc and even get internet connection ...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3RO2K:
Had my Kindle rooted last week and been using fine then decided to put TWRP on it which also worked fine and prepared to install a ROM. I did a factory reset and wiped SD, rebooted and then my computer would not recognize the device or mount the SD.

I searched for a method to partition SD so I could get my backups on there (I backed the whole system up) following this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424784 after that my Kindle has not been able to power on at all for 2 days.

Charged it overnight via USB and still nothing, got a factory cable this morning and nothing, currently have it on charge at the wall in case it needs a full power charge.

Any ideas on what is going on please?

Thanks.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
OK I'm going to bed by thought I'd throw in 2 cents of info, I skimmed that link and I am pretty sure it was for kf1, the kf hd from what I know u don't want to mess with the partitions because they have to have a security header like thing in the partition or your kindle will brick. We usually fix the brick by flashing backups or using the kfsystem image restore, but in your case u can't seem to power it on so I don't know what exactly u did to the partitions, but I think the kindle may be hard bricked just because I saw that u said u were messing with partitions. Like I said though I'm half asleep and I only skimmed that article. Post some more info on exactly what you did and I may be of some more use tomarrow (about 5-8 hours).
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3RO2K:
Did exactly as described in original post, the guy in that thread seems to be using HD version but even so it was just an adb command to partition sd card so can't see how it would brick the device to the point of not even turning on!?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Okay, first things first...

Other than the information in that user's signature (which can be changed BTW), I don't see anything to suggest that he is referring to a KFHD. Having said that...

This is the partition layout for the Kindle Fire HD:

xloader -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
bootloader -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
idme -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
crypto -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p4
misc -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
dkernel -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
dfs -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p7
efs -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
recovery -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p9
boot -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
system -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p11
cache -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p12[COLOR=DarkRed] [COLOR=Red]<--Partition 12[/COLOR][/COLOR]
userdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p13

This is the partition layout for the Original Kindle Fire:

xloader -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
bootloader -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
dkernel -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
dfs -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p4
recovery -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
backup -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
boot -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p7
splash -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
system -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p9
userdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
cache -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p11
media -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 [COLOR=Red]<--Partition 12[/COLOR]

Now...Can formatting the cache partition to fat32 cause the OMAP ROM to halt the boot process? I guess it's possible, but I'm more inclined to believe you accidentally formatted a signed partition like the 'system' partition (mmcblk0p11), or even worse, the whole emmc (mmcblk0).

Nevertheless, since your device does not show any outward signs of life (no display, no LED, etc.), I'm sorry to say, but it is highly unlikely you will ever recover it. If you are lucky enough to get it replaced, be more careful next time, and be sure to ask if something is safe to do before doing it if you don't know what it is that you are doing (I doubt anyone will blame you for doing so).
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3RO2K:
Nothing at all? Where is Kindle data actually stored as it refers to internal storage as SD Card obviously this is not your usual sd card so can the storage not be replaced?

I have tried a ton of things, just been looking into the Firekit Live USB using Ubuntu and the usb boot shortening thing by opening up, can these not be done on the HD 7"? Or any other alternative method?

In TWRP I used the factory reset menu to wipe clean from Amazon/root crap I previously had- ready to install an Android rom. I have seen mentioned other people using this without problems, don't understand!?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
The kindles sdcard isnt even an sdcard, its a partition of the internal storage, so u cant just replace it. No the tricks from earlier kindles don't work on the hd's. And as to what u did is different from most people, u repartitioned the internal storage of the kindle, that bad. If it won't power on at all now I think u should see if amazon will exchange it for a new one, though technically u voided the warranty, but occasionally they will forgive this.

Read q2 I think it pretty much sums up wat both of us have said.

It's not that no one knows how it's done. It's that no one outside of Amazon has the digitally signed images and boot tools needed to do so.

Hi there!!!

when i charge it to 100% it drain fast to 98% and then normaly to about 40%, then fall down to 14%.but for example when i charge it to 100% and use it and restart it, it drain about 10% and when it come to 40% it dont drain but when it come to 40-10=30%, darin quickly to 14%.
