Ok, I'm having lots or problems with the first (htc_logo) splash screen. I can create an image and run htc_compress on it, and it goes to 65536 bytes with no problem. But if I use that image, its all screwed up on on the phone (top 3/4 of the phone is just white and black horizontal lines, and then at the bottom of the phone will be 2 or 3 tiny duplicated sort of gray scale images of the splash screen. To work around this I have to save the .bmp to a .jpg and put compression down to around 50% which makes it look terrible. Then convert it back to BMP and it will then work. I see others posting the exact same image and they aren't having to do this jpg compression like I'm doing, so apparently something is different / wrong and I'm at a loss as to what (other than the graphic program doing the converting). I'm using GIMP to work my images, so now wonder if GIMP is the problem. Anyone else using GIMP and can you get nice looking first page splash screens?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] the-equinoxe:
Hey mfrazzz,

Do me a favor, please try opening it in MS-Paint and save it as JPG (98%-99% quality).

Then reopen it in paint and convert it back to BMP..

Now the bmp is almost as nice, but mathematical a lot simpler, and easier to handle by the compression tools (used for the splash-screens).

Best regards,

Yes, it works with locked and unlocked G3 and G4 Wizards (and ONLY Wizards, so don't go bricking your shiny new Tytn).

I also found that your factory ROM will gladly reset your startup screens back to normal should your phone require warranty service

Hello, a fantastic guide but i'm a little stuck :S

I cannot seem to get the file sizes correct etc. so I was wondering if someone could save the trouble of explanation and create the startup screens for me?

Easy way out I know! Well done its a fantastic guide otherwise.

I have G4 (Cingular 8125) and just did this tonight, awesome, I have tried lots of others way to do it, but this one is the ONLY one that worked the 1st time :) and was VERY EASY to follow step by step.

Only problem I had was the ROMUpdateUtiity_Wizard_NoId.exe that is in the .zip file said it was to old and it didn't work, and I needed a newer verson. I just moved the nk.nbf file I had just made to the dir with the Wizard Love "newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe" and ran it. Worked like a charm.

problems at step 2

Hi, I'm having real issues reelated to creating the signed.002 file. I just can't get that step to work at all.

Could somebody please create the files for me?

I'm a bit cheesed off to be honest. I don't know why it won't work. Splash 2 seems to do nothing when I try to use it. I'm not blaming anyones efforts, as this seems to work for others, I'm just gutted I can't do it myself.

Is there a long winded way of creating these files?

All comments/help greatly appreciated.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itechengine:
Thank you for the reply, are you talking about only 4G or all the bands/frequencies for these providers? I think 900F is the only 4GLTE Model available for Samsung S5, am I correct?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
No that assumption isn't correct. There are half a dozen S5 variants that have 4G coverage. But 4G /LTE is not just one band, so you really have to search to find out what bands a specific carrier uses and then compare that to the model in question. You can either look for a list of bands that the carrier uses.. which can take a bit of searching. Or approximate it by looking at which S5 model they provide to their customers and looking up the specs of that variant.

In most cases you will find overlapping band coverage between models. Meaning that you will probably have partial coverage with a different variant like the 900F.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Again, Google found me this:

LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 - SM-G900F

LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 - SM-G900M

LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 - SM-G900A

LTE 700/850/900/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 - SM-G900T

There are more but none match the current Indian frequencies afaik.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
You can search each carrier as follows

e.g. you want to know if the 900F will work on BSNL, etc

Do a Google search: specs sm-g900f

Now open another browser tab and

Do a Google search: bsnl india s5 site:samsung.com

That would tell you that BSNL uses the SM-G900HZKAINU variant

Do a Google search: specs SM-G900HZKAINU

Now compare the bands for both

At a glance (you should confirm this yourself) it appears that they match on 2G/3G, but have no 4G/LTE compatibility at all.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itechengine:
I had done the comparison on the Samsung website for these two models but then they seems to be working on same frequencies expect 4G, as 900H doesnt have 4G capability. But If i search over the internet it just gives random results...

[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
Hi All,

I have a non-DE XT1060 with an unlocked bootloader. I am attempting to flash a custom recovery, but I am running into issues. When I go into fastboot, it shows the device is indeed unlocked, but says Status Code: 3, where it would normally say Status Code: 1.

I am guessing this is part of my issue, since when I run the command ADB DEVICES, my device does not appear on the list. However, when I run the command ADB FASTBOOT DEVICES, it will list my device out. Because of this, I am having trouble flashing a custom recovery and obtaining root.

If anyone knows what Status Code: 3 actually means or has other ideas what might be going on, I would appreciate your help. I did a fair amount of searching online already, but nothing seemed quite the same as the issue I was having. Thanks in advance for any help.
[Moto X Q&A] Jeff5241:
I recently unlocked my device with the same status code 3 and had difficulties flashing the recovery also... In the android development section theres a post called recovery unlocked they mention that the correct command to flash would be mfastboot instead of fastboot (i guess its a motorola thing) also Adb commands don't run while in fastboot...
[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
I think I had a misunderstanding of what fastboot was, but your reply prompted me to read more and I get it now. That being said, when I attempt to flash the recovery via fastboot, I receive the error: (bootloader) Variable not supported!
[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
For the record, it does respond to commands such as fastboot devices and fastboot reboot-bootloader
[Moto X Q&A] Jeff5241:
Never had that outcome but having the latest adb/fastboot files would make things easier... If it still occurs

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Unfortunately you didn't give us much information to go on. For instance you didn't say if your phone restarted just the once or how often, if it is recurring. It's hardly worth worrying about a one time glitch if it doesn't repeat.

The first thing to try to solve a persistent restart issue is as was already suggested, try clearing the cache and data for the app in the settings menu application manager. And then boot to recovery mode and wipe the cache there too. Past that, you can try reinstalling the app or starting in safe mode to narrow down the cause. You are essentially trying to narrow down the possibilities and watch for any pattern in what might be causing the issue.

If you are sensitive to lag, then search for some posts about debloating your phone or installing a custom ROM that is better optimized. It's all of the superfluous Samsung junk and carrier apps that cause most of the lag.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebrandsberg:
I have noticed on my OPO that the application "Battery Monitor Widget" doesn't appear to have access to accurate battery information, including the size and the recharge/discharge rate. Instead you have to configure it manually for the size and tell it to estimate the discharge/recharge rate. From a bit of testing, it doesn't even appear that the OS itself has a good view of the battery, where if you have enough applications drawing enough power, and not enough power feeding the phone, it won't even show as being connected to USB power, and it will estimate if it is on AC or USB power apparently based on how much the recharge rate is.

My first question is if anybody knows if this is a software only issue, where additional hardware support needs to come in an update. Alternatively, are there any other tools that allow accurate monitoring of power state? Thanks!
