[Touch 3G General] welshbloke70:
I've been trying to change the splash screen on my jade and have managed to make an nbh file and flash it with the customRUU.

the splash screen has changed but seems to 'cut off' near the bottom where the boot info comes up and shows some of the old splash screen under the info.

Its really wierd :confused: I'm sure my image is the right size (I've used several stock ones from this forum)

I'd really like to know where I'm going wrong.

Cheers

the annoying orange

Hi Welshbloke70

I too would like to change (the annoying orange) splash screen on my Jade.

I presume you are talking about the very first splash that appears on start-up?

I’ve successfully done this on a herm200 but you know how things can be different!

Can you explain what steps you took and I’ll try the same on mine to see if we get the same result?

Cheers
[Touch 3G General] welshbloke70:
Well I flashed the HTC stock ROM and thats changed it.

The stock ROM works well for me so I'm pretty happy, and I guess that the splash screen is changed for good.

Hi Welshbloke

Can you tell me if the stock ROM is available here? If so can you provide the link or version?

Hello,

all you need is a GIF file 240 x 320 Pixels in size.

Place the file in \windows folder.

You might need to use the Total commander to place this file as otherwise you'll get write protection error.

Soft reset after replacing the file.
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
If you're talking about the HTC screen splash ...

on my set it's this file - animated.gif (240 x 320 pix, 46.1 kb) in \windows.
[Touch 3G General] hoaxdream:
how do i enable and chamge the animated.gif? and disable the splashscreen?
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
AFAIK... Get any gif file (animated or not) of your choice, edit/resize it to be of the same pix size with animated.gif (240 x 320), save it as "animated.gif", dump it into \windows. Softreset. Rem to keep the default file, just in case.

I have no idea.
[Touch 3G General] hoaxdream:
i put in the windows folder and follow all your instructions but still no luck, what is the problem?
[Touch 3G General] MvBoe:
Only to tell: I do not have the file "animated.gif" on my phone. :confused:

But I do not want to change my splash-screen, so it does not matter for me. :D
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
Trying to understand better ..

After you dump the new file and softreset, when you boot up, what happened ?

Does the splash screen still show the default animated gif ? or No animation at all ?
[Touch 3G General] hoaxdream:
nothing happens, anyway thanks...

btw guys here's the step to change the splash screen.

I am looking for a theme with a top bar that looks like in this picture: apple silver background with black letters.

I don't want all the other IPhone stuff, just a WM Today Theme with a top bar like this (the colors, not necessarily the icons) and maybe the rest of the Theme similar: "Apple" silver background (or white?) with black letters.

I did look around but only found IPhone themes and all that I don't care for. Thanks very much.

Hi all

just want to see if anyone else has this problem and what it might be. i have a horizontal pouch for the fuze. when it rings with an incoming call, no matter how gently and carefully i try to take it out of the pouch without touching any buttons, it answers. well more specifically it hangs up on the party and i invariably end up with a voice message.

does anyone else have this problem? it doesn't appear that i am touching anything but i suppose that the pouch could actually be touching the screen to activate something.

[XPERIA X1 General] X1_Kemist:
Hello everybody. I've got two unrelated questions...

1)In a number of programs that use list views, e.g. contacts, messaging, notes... you can select more than one item by either dragging your stylus across the items you want to select or click on menu and then edit> select all or several. but what if the items you want to select are not in order? I wonder if there's any way you can do that akin to Windows desktop use of control clicking the items you want to select. in my previous E90, you could do that by holding ctrl while selecting the items....

2) I can't seem to paste any rss URL in the appropriate field in the Sony Ericsson Panels, I find myself having to manually type in the address even though I copy the address in Opera and go to the field and hold-tap the screen untill I get the "paste" menu item then i click on it, but nothing is pasted, is this a bug?? thanks in advance......
[XPERIA X1 General] ring-bearer:
If the manipulations you want to do are on files, Total Commander (a file explorer) has a ctrl button along the bottom of the screen. Just use it like you use in Windows.

I want to send back my diamond for my seller (for warranty).

I remove my custom rom, and put the official rom on the diamond, flash the original radio and finally put my "original" SPL 1.37.

But when i go the bootloader, i can see SPL 1.37 and "SECURITY UNLOCKED" on the top of the screen.

Is there a way to remove the message ?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris2004:
I am currently using Touch Cruise. Would it be a serious upgrade to TD2? I am very much concerned about the lack of D-pad. Even with the D-pad the use of cruise is difficult. Is the screen improved?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adeltaY:
From some reviews I read that the screen is so large and finger friendly that it negates the use of a D-Pad.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetgaz:
You should go for it. I upgraded from a Touch Cruise and the D2 is a far superior phone. It is far more responsive than the laggy Cruise and the screen is very high definition - almost excessively. You can read web pages even when zoomed out if your eyes are good enough.

I still reach for the dpad sometimes out of habit but I don't really miss it. Everything is do-able without, you just need to get used to it.

The D2 didn't feel much smaller than the cruise when I first upgraded but now when I look at my old cruise it looks fat and bloated and the screen pixels looks very blocky.

I do miss the rubbery feel though of the cruise since the D2 is very slippery.

If you use programmable buttons much you will be disappointed with the D2's single button compared to about 5 on the cruise. Although there are free solutions to this available.

Honestly, there's no comparison! The UI is instantaneous with everything you do. Press a number on the dial pad and it instantly registers. Press call end and the call is GONE! No waiting 2-3 seconds anymore. When you slide your finger in the photo album to swipe to the next picture the photo moves WITH your finger. With the TC you made the swipe and then waited for the next picture to appear.

These are just the benefits I can think of now.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deechte:
I'm coming from a cruise too, and just loving my D2! The UI is indeed perfect. I was affraid of the accessability of some functions, when not having a D-pad, but it's just no problem in everyday use.

All daily windows menus have been replaced by larger ones, easily clickable with your finger. That includes the menus that are used in third-party programs. I was affraid about having to do a lot of actions to block the phone, when putting it in my pocket. But actually you just press and hold the end-button to block the device very quickly. There are big improvements like for instance the great TF3D, but also small ones. For instance, the D2 displays a small bluetooth icon in the taskbar, when BT is on. It even shows a different icon when the device is connected to a headset or carkit. On my cruise I always wondered about BT-status. The start menu is replaced by a bigger icon one. That one is adjustable, you can place 24 of your favorite apps there, 15 off them fit in the screen directly, for more you have to scroll. The other apps are accessable when you hit 'all'. Then the whole start menu appears, but again: larger. The TF3D home screen shows the next 3 appointments, whereas TF2D versions for the cruise always showed only 1. The TF3D calendar doesn't fit my needs though, so I'm still looking for a replacement.

On my cruise I was using a tiny program called taskswitch, which I assigned to a hardware button, to switch between applications. I use that when driving. I'll typically have at least two apps open (navigation software and Opera for live traffic information) and want to switch between them easily while keeping my attention on the road. The lack of buttons prevents that solution now, but there is a better one: AE button plus. I assigned the built-in task manager to the hardware back button and that works great! Then I assigned the function "OK/enter" to the same button, but when pressing and holding it. Now it all works fantastically.

On my cruise I have tried several ROM's. No one was perfect at all. Opera would crash often, the Youtube apps I tried would be slow and crash often. I was using the stylus all day. The Topaz isn't just better IMO, it's a whole new era.

Just one addition: a downside is the poorer radio reception. Radio reception for GSM and wifi is worse than the cruise. I'm hoping it will improve at some time with a radio ROM update. It's not bad, but it's not as good as the cruise.

I managed to flash a old proto (origional button config) with a image designed for the dream

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=507151

The device boots fine but issue I have is that the touch screen now doesnt work...

Any ideas?

Flashed the device by downloading TheDudeAbides0.6.zip.signed

Renamed update.zip

Placed on root of MicroSD

Entered recovery mode (home + menu when restarting)

Pressed home + manu again and it started updating

When it the boots (takes ages), the tough screen is now working - Roller and hardware buttons are, just no touch screen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Joushou:
You're not giving a very detailed explanation...

Does logcat tell you something about init problems?

What about syslog (dmesg)?

Have you checked that it included the hardware interface for that touch-screen? (It's a dream build afterall)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] IseeBrickedPhones:
Also tried the Origional Sapphire images which have been used to build the Dream images - same problem.

Where are hardware drivers stored - Which *.img contain drivers? hboot or boot?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Joushou:
"boot" is the partition that stores kernel and ramdisk ("hboot.img" is the radio if i recall correctly).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kryaventh:
Touchscreen driver are different for Dream and Magic. Can you try to add at your update.zip the boot.img from http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html ,twice driver are compiled, and don't forget to sign your zip file before install.

If in low memory mode so that camera will work you loose 5-7mb.

In high memory mode you gain mb but cannot use camera.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Avatar28:
So far I haven't had a lot of luck with 6.5. It seems that these phones just simply don't have enough RAM to handle it properly and give me everything I want. I guess I will have to go back to 6.1. Although, really, it probably isn't worth my time. A lot of people here at work have been complaining about their Moguls. They want their precious crackberries back (ugh!). So they're getting rid of these and swapping them out now. I'm going to wait as long as possible before I swap mine though. There's sure to be a line and, honestly, I'd just as soon keep my Mogul if I can get it stable. Otherwise I'm gonna have to come up with $350 to buy a new personal phone to feed my WiMo addiction. I can't believe AT&T has jacked up the Fuze to $350 though. Yeesh. I'm tempted to just wait until their next one comes along at this point, hopefully one that will support 6.5 officially.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] PRBajista:
If I read your posts correctly you have found some of the cabs for the programs you want for your build, but I saw no mention of a memory card. Have you tried building your rom and then installing the cabs to the programs you like on the memory card? Not all programs can be installed on the memory card but alot of the ones you have listed can be. I recommend at least a 2 gig. (I have a 4 gig on my phone). Just make sure its not the HC memory cards as they are not compatible with this device. Like I said Im not sure if you have already gone this route but its just a suggestion. Hope this helps.

PRBajista 9: :cool:
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Avatar28:
I have a couple of apps that I have done that with. But, really, the problem isn't storage so much as operational RAM. I finally decided that I could either use WM 6.5 or the camera and that I would rather have 6.5. Putting the phone into high memory mode helped a lot with it, but it still quickly memory leaks down to about 12 megs free. I'm working with the chef of my current ROM over at ppckitchen trying to figure it out. I'm starting to wonder if some of these devices don't have a hardware issue that causes some people to have memory leaks or if it is possibly related to the bootloader (2.40 vs 2.47) because some people seem to have no problem with them while almost every custom ROM I have tried running seems to have a memory leak.

You might have to do it in ADB.

adb remount

adb shell

[your command]
[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
besides that, you cannot mv across file systems either. mv is essentially a renaming tool, if you want to move something use cp and rm.
[G1 Android Development] mystica555:
I presume you have little *nix background... 'mv' essentially performs both cp and rm functions in one fell swoop. I use it on my desktop and laptop daily. It will copy before it deletes as well, so if you are interrupted, the source files wont be gone with a corrupt destination.

[Palm Treo Pro] CPL Tack:
Hi folks,

I am new here, but I have read through most of the forums and cannot replicate my problem, so here goes.

I installed SPB Mobile 3 over the air last night, and it worked like it was supposed to. I didn't like 2 because when you hit the power off button it went back to the today screen.

SPB M3 worked like a charm last night, when I hit the power button, it was there waiting. When I turned it off, it turned the screen off (without going to home) When I hit the icon I placed on the nice new display screen, it went to the today screen, and I could start dialing an unknown number.

After crashing SPB twice trying to set default ring volumes, I figured I did enough damage, and hard reset my phone.

The mobile shell will not come on now unless I hit start (pain) and after I hit power off, I must power off the today screen also (or wait the 1 minute timeout) Does anyone have any idea what I screwed up or did not configure right? I understand this is more of an SPB mobile 3 problem (more than likely) but I figure there are pros here.

I have hard reset since, removing spb

I have tried using spbwatcher, which almost eliminates making a phone call not from contacts

I have tried replicating what I did last night (installing SPB over air, and through desktop)

I am just a little frustrated because the new SPB looks great, easy to use and very productive.

Any thoughts?
