deleted boot_animation_xml

Hey guys, I was messing around in my phone and delete the animation xml.. can anyone upload that for me.

Steps to do that would be

adb shell

su

cd /system/media/bootscreen

cp boot_animation.xml /sdcard

thanks a lot guys

EDIT: It has to be from this rom

Did you ever get this fixed? Mine is doing the same thing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Seanc13:
Can anyone please tell me why when I leave an application, I get the black htc screen and then sense loads back up for me, it happens every time I leave any app
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
I noticed this too. I just trash the shortcut and drag a new one from launcher to my home screen. It's a crappy work-around but it works.

For people who want to see live wallpapers, push LiveWallpapersPicker.apk to /system/app/. You'll get them for awhile but the background will revert to the last static wallpaper eventually.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jmxp69:
I used the HTC Quietly Brilliant bootscreen from elsewhere on the forum. So no guarantees this works for you.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] LuisPotato:
Same happens to me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
maybe try a wipe and reflash?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrTrip:
.........And then what? Installed....and I see no options for it. Trying to launch it directly does nothing either.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] goku14238:
No audio when booting DC v1.0?

I figured it out. I downloaded the ROM again and just pulled it from there.

Also, If you don't know why you dont hear a boot sound while the phone is booting, it is because it has been disabled.

open up the boot_animation file and change the useAudio="0" options to "1". That will enable the boot audio.

Woot for finding things to change that we dont really need, lol :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] usaar33:
No one seems to know. It is just one of those things broken in this ROM... hopefully it'll be fixed in the coming weeks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danaff37:
If I try to partition my sd card to use apps2sd, on reboot the rom freezes at boot. Removing the battery and removing the sd card partition will not even let it boot then without a re-install of the rom. I've searched here and other places, and no luck or fixes. Any ideas? Just as a note I've just been partitioning in the recovery program, and upgrading the ext2 to ext3 to ext4. Even ext wipe did not help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] robchaos:
No fix yet.I'm going to flash back to 2.1 today and see if I can recreate it again and captive a log.that is the only thing keeping me from using this permanently. I can deal with the broken webkit function for certain apps. i loved having this and showing it off to my friends with eris'.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] epiphany9x:
Sorry if this has been posted, search doesn't find anything for me. I have no Wireless Tether in my All Programs menu. Where can I find it? Did something bug out for me? If I need to install it manually do I use the version for Hero (1.6) or for Nexus One (2.1)?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] looneylu:
put it on your sd card, and select through a file file viewer like ES File Explorer
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dcdave63:
Ok, love this ROM, very fast. Only problem I have is I am not receiving any incoming calls. I can make outgoing calls. Every one who calls gets a message that my voice mail is not setup. Which is odd, since it was setup before, and I know the visual voice mail is not working on this ROM, however why would that effect the phones ability to receive calls? Any one else seeing this issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
can you make calls??? if so go into your settings and see if for some reason you have it set to EVDO only if not then im not sure but I had this issue before when I first got the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hmlion:
thank you for it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dcdave63:
Checked the settings, was on automatic, turned off the wifi, bluetooth, gps and data and tried, and still not receiving calls. No idea what to do next, other than going to my nandroid backups and trying the previous ROM. Ugh!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chirag2f4u:
Apps2SD

How can I check if Apps2SD is working properly? or even if I set it up correctly

32mb swap, 512mb EXT2, rest FAT32

Is there anything else I need to do? like install an application to enable it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blindfaith76:
For bank of America, just point your browser to 'www.bankofamerica.com' it recognizes you as a mobile user and sends you to the correct 'app' page. If you need it as an icon, then just set it as a bookmark then go to 'edit bookmarks' and select add shortcut to home screen. Bingo bango.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
anyone know of a RSS reader that works with this rom? Blue RSS doesnt seem to work with this one. it must need whatever is wrong with apps accessing the net.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
you obviously didn't search, cause it has been answered numerous times, install a file browser and look in /system/sd/ if files are there, it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
I see no option anywhere to add it to your homepage on the Hero. I have that on my Palm Pre but not on my Hero I checked for a half hour,lol. Where do u see this option?

I stand corrected I found it. You have to have your bookmarks in list view not thumbnail.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fixxxer2008:
jesus..over 100k page views on this rom? :eek:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Probably just from all the people constantly pressing F5 around ROM release time. :-D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fixxxer2008:
still, if he asked for donations he would make some good $$. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
True, even a penny per page view, Damage would be RICH!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruben8448:
So I encountered my first noticeable error early this morning. I had to wake up early because someone was trying to reach me, and when they called me a second time the phone no longer rang, it just vibrated. When I answered it I couldn't talk to or hear the person on the other line. I tried calling them back multiple times and it was still the same. I had to reboot my phone and then it worked. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Having this problem real early in the AM is frustrating but that'll teach me to leave my phone on before I go to bed. :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Street_Knowledge:
To try out the live wallpapers, you have to disable sense. go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications> HTC sense and click clear defaults.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] networx2002:
I can find the answer, so thats why im asking. My home button wont work, wipe flashed still have them same problem. When i hit the home key nothing happens. :(:(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] robchaos:
Teach you to leave your phone on overnight? That is a pretty crippling bug. What if the next call you miss use from the hospital our police.maybe this wouldn't have been such a big deal a few years ago but something like 1/4 of all americans use cellphone as their only means of communication. I hope no one tries to jump on me for saying this. I have nothing but respect for damage and currently would not have the knowledge to do half of what he can do. i am trying to learn linux and i have all the adb stuff down pretty good. If i had the knowledge I would be doing all I could to poke through code and help because it happened to me too but I haven't been able to recreate it to see if I could get any insight into why. As it stands now this rom is not suitable for permanent use.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
i have done that but cant get the live wallpaper option to come up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Try pressing Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications> Home

When Home opens, scroll down and clear the default. Once you've done this, try pressing the home button and hopefully it'll work. If not, wipe and re-flash or Nandroid back to a version when it was working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Street_Knowledge:
I havent installed it on this rom but on previous roms long press on the homescreen, choose wallpapers then live wallpapers, again, however i have not tried it on this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
yeah i tryied that cause thats how its on the 2.1 roms but for some reason it doesnt pop up i have even gone under settings>personalize> and did the wallpaper from there nothing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jpeepers:
Bump... Anyone?

Still can't get this to work. Even tried to apply the "fix" and still nothing. All I get is a black screen when I launch quickboot.

.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Screen Orientation

I would love to make this screen be able to turn either direction when you flip the device that way. I know this is possible in some other 2.1 ROMs that I've used (don't remember which ones) and was wondering if it's possible to make this one do it? Is this something in the Framework or is it another file(s) elsewhere? I know I'm not the only one that is interested in this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zswilkinson:
it only worked in fresh's first rom. where the heck are the rotation settings even found?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rufflez2010:
awake time

my awake time is 100% while on the charger. I haven't been able to fully charge my phone overnight yet on this ROM. I'm having battery life issues too, but that could be from me not putting my phone down (;))

I managed to kill a 3500mAh battery while I was awake yesterday.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] networx2002:
For some reason as soon as i play with my exchange settings it started to work. :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rufflez2010:
On other phones, you could change that setting with Spare Parts
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Not for rotating right or left, just for rotation animations AFAIK. I was asking about being able to rotate the phone both ways.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] okcppcnut:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he is talking about the 360 deg rotation that Cyanogen's N1 ROM does. Ex. If you flip the phone upside down the display flips 180 deg.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] doeboy711:
I liked it when we could rotate and the home screens would also rotate as well. I think that was in darchdroid
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
I was more talking about this. I realize that with Sense we probably won't be able to rotate the home screen either way, but I'd like to be able to rotate other programs such as browser, texting, etc. There has to be a way, it's just going to take someone smarter than me to figure it out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] collegedude10:
I need some help

boot screen just keeps looping... I try to get back into recovery (holding home while phone boots up) so that I can wipe and start over but doesn't work, just goes to the normal boot screen, which then freezes

how do i get back into recovery?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rufflez2010:
Volume down plus power button.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] collegedude10:
got it! thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
does anyone know if i will get any better battery life and or performance if i just run home instead of sense on this rom..or does it not make that much of a difference...just wondering if anyone has played with this
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedekhoi:
I have wiped everything and have tried to flash multiple times, but it keeps on freezing at the boot up with the Nexus logo. Have no idea what's wrong because I can flash the fresh ROM and it boots up fine. Anyone have any suggestions please?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] linkinx64:
Corrupted download?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rootwind:
Do you have any programs that require root working? You might have USB debugging disabled.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
have you tried to do everything it says to do on the original post?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedekhoi:
I thought so too, but I have tried all three download links of both version. Do I need to update my radio or partition my sdcard even if I dont want to use apps2sd?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JsChiSurf:
Did you have apps2sd already running on your previous ROM? I know you said you wiped, but it has been mentioned that having a previous EXT2 extension creates problems on a fresh install, and you have to delete and recreate your partition as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedekhoi:
Nope, just rooted my phone last night, my sdcard is blank except for this ROM renamed update.zip. Just tested fresh ROM to see if that would work and it does. This ROM just refuses to go pass the Nexus logo.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
How long did you let it sit at the Nexus logo screen? Can take a looong time sometimes. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Shouldn't take that long, but it can.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedekhoi:
Is it normal for the Nexus logo to stop loading? And yes I have waited 15+ minutes before giving up and pulling out the battery. Thanks for the all the replies, maybe I'll just stick with the fresh ROM for now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dcdave63:
Well, I guess I have to go back to 1.5, since no one else seems to be having the same issue, which is odd. No one else has checked to see if they are not getting incoming calls since moving to this ROM? very strange.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kadukuchelu:
You have to partition you sd card for it to load because of the automatic a2sd app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] djjenso0n:
I've looked and looked but can't find

i have 2 very small issues not affecting the operation, just the look. i've looked for a fix in the thread, don't mind doing the work. so is there a file to edit that will get me out of chicago in the desk clock app? i delete the city the weather shows up as fargo which is where i am, close it reopen it and i'm back in chicago. not a big deal just a nag for me. the other weather apps show me in the right place.

2. a file to edit to change the wording this is sent from my verizon phone. i edited the build.prop is there another one to edit? thanks for any help.

happy late b-day damaged...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jzmjr:
Maybe a dumb question. But how do i make tr sprint visual voicemail work. I got the app but the voicemails dont work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Sorry MrTrip. That's what I get for posting and then going to bed.

Get Home Switcher from the market and you can use it to toggle between the Sense and the Android home screens. Live wallpapers only work in the Android home.

Long press the screen (or press menu) and pick wallpapers. You should see an option for Live wallpapers. Hopefully, you have downloaded some from the market. I can't get some to work (starfield, nexusmod, some others) but some do work. Good luck.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danknuggz:
i partitioned fat32+ext2+swap to get apps2sd to work .. it isnt should i have just done only fat32 which is it and yes to the assholes out there i searched the ****ing thread
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Pyro8:
You're kidding me that ithis rom is 100% complete? because it's not 100% complete. Look at this thread.. and data roaming isn't working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] derekstory:
No we here at xda do not have the ability to be funny

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Wasney:
A little dumb...seeing as is is stated in the first post that Visual Voicemail does not function...on this or any other 2.1 rom...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fixxxer2008:
agreed...this is why ill wait until the official comes. i think the devs have done all they can with what they have. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] -Apollo-:
Same thing happened to me. When I flashed the android 2.1 keyboard I lost multi. So I just started over and all is WELL!!! Here is the order I did it in:

1. Wipe (factory, ext. partition, and that other one dalvik)

2. Flash Damage - do not log into any accounts yet

3. Reboot phone

4. Next flash keyboard and restart

5. Flash mms fix

6. After restart, set up Google, next Facebook, mail

Kicks ass!

Thanks Damage, Flipz, Jerrry and everyone else, you guys rock!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
This is as close as it's going to get until Sprint releases some stuff that we can use.

This is based off of a leak from Eris, and some stuff doesn't even work on that release.

Go make your own ROM that works as well as this does based on what we have right now, then come talk to me. Most people do not have problems with this ROM and can use it as their daily. I am. I have no problems and I'm not sacrificing anything by using my own ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fixxxer2008:
as i said it won't be fully functional until we get the 2.1 update. you devs are doing what you can!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scott2020:
A small problem I have isn't so much as I don't get incoming calls, but it takes forever for my phone to ring on an incoming call. When I call my phone, I hear the ring in probably 3 times before my Hero starts to ring. The Hero rings maybe one time and by that time, the voicemail timeout hits and the caller is transferred to vm. The phone is kind of asleep and it takes 3 rings to wake it up. I am wondering if increasing voicemail delay somehow would allow more rings, although irritating to the caller I suppose, if they wait a million rings to get something.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lgevo:
where it says u might want to wipe everything dose that mean in the recovery menu hit wipe then hit all 5 diff wipes?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JsChiSurf:
Amen. We're working off of a leak that isn't even built directly for our phone. I don't pay attention to the Eris forums, but I was curious about this. Do the Eris uerss suffer from some of the same issues? Especially curious if they have the facebook sync problem. Reason being, if they do, even after an official release, we may still have problems until a patch is released by HTC/Sprint.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jpeepers:
That was it, I feel like an idiot now :D

Thanks.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Guys,

I am getting pretty sick of all of the criticism. I originally did not plan on maintaining a ROM, however I decided to because of all of the support. If you would like me to continue, then I expect people to not post their negative comments about why they won't use it. I really don't care why you won't use it and why you want to wait. Just keep it to yourself. I have worked hard on getting this to where it is now, and I realize that there are still problems and they will be worked out in future releases, but I expect everyone to be supportive while I spend my free time on this.

Thanks to everyone who has been supportive. I even realize that is the majority. However, to those whom are posting negative comments about the ROM, please stop.

I realize that this is NOT PERFECT. There are some things that just need to be leaked in order for us to get everything we need. I AM WORKING ON GETTING IT AS CLOSE TO PERFECT AS POSSIBLE. I didn't name this 100% because I am 100% done, or because it is 100% complete. Maybe I was even a little premature calling this 100%, but I believe this is pretty much as close as it gets until we get something from Sprint.

Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] looneylu:
+1 even those complaining have to admit that this is probably the most stable ROM out of all the 2.1 roms out there. You were the first to put out a 2.1 that can be used as a daily while uniting the community. You're work is definitely appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Best if you just ignore the people who expect perfection for free. The people that use your ROM and are able to work around some of the bugs inherent in a leaked release won't criticize your work, while the ones who wouldn't bother to pay for an app they could steal for free off the net will consistently ***** that you're not doing enough to help them. Sometimes you gotta just sit back, take a deep breath and say, 'f**k it'. Pay attention to your supporters and totally blow off your detractors.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SooooneR:
Awesome work Damage Don't Listen to the Newbies!

It's Damn near perfect and thats alot more than anyone else can say at this point! You have all these little kids that are *****ing about this or that and it mostly comes down to not following instructions. I have been over and under this ROM and the only thing I have not working right now is... the weather city in Desk Clock wont change and the logging out of your Google account every boot! Im sure there is a fix for both I just need to go look. The rest is flawless so far I love it! Great work Damage!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrTrip:
I get an FC every time I select a wallpaper :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DanWalker:
Nandroid Backup Question...

I have read a bunch of threads but have yet to find a definitive answer. Can I rename a nandroid backup to whatever I want and still be able to restore it through the recovery boot screen?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
Dont use Gallery to select your wallpaper, use the normal photos one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] krazeekirk:
ok I need help. i searched the thread for this didnt find ant solutions. my google voice...well every thing works dont have any issues beside when i call using the app it still goes thru with my real cell number.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
The way I see it, if you don't like this ROM or have no intention of using it, stay the hell out of this thread! Do you think you are doing a public service by saying that you think this ROM isn't what you expected?

Here's another idea... if you are experiencing a problem that nobody else is having then the problem is on YOUR end. That means that YOU need to go do the research to find out how to fix your phone so that it behaves normally. If you can't do that (or don't want to) then, again, you have no business flashing this ROM or posting in this thread.

If you are experiencing a problem that has been reported to be an issue and you post about it without searching, you just look like an idiot and deserve all the ridicule that comes to you.

EDIT: This wasn't directed at anyone in particular but if it offends you then yes, it was directed towards you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrTrip:
No, Live Wallpaper.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kraminc:
I don't believe you can. I tried this a while ago and it didn't work for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scott2020:
Whenever something gets this much attention, it will attract many different types of people. Most of the negative people are jealous because they can't do it themselves. Focus on the positive and keep going! I was about to go back to my Blackberry before getting this ROM, but my Hero is so much more usable now. It does hurt for someone to bash something you put your heart and soul into, but you are doing more good than you know. For every jackass who posts trash, there are 10 people who are happy but never post a peep. Drive on!
