You will need to download the android-sdk located www.android.com

1st)Go to http://www.flexjunk.com/2010/05/01/installing-htc-incredible-android-sd-drivers/ This will help you setup your Droid Incredible to be recognized on your computer. After do this step it will tell you to reboot your computer.

(If your droid is is already setup to be recognized skip step 1)

2nd)Run terminal or (command prompt), point it to your (<sdk>directory)

3rd)With you Droid Incredible-

: go to settings, applications, development, *(Check) USB Debugging*

: plug in your Incredible to the usb, select "disk drive" option

: inside terminal (or command prompt) run

adb devices

if it doesn't not recognize your device then you did something wrong.

(tips- reboot computer, make sure adb debugging is checked, reboot phone)

4th)Download any custom bootanimation.zip you want and place it inside your 'tools folder' located in your SDK

(you can find many custom bootanimations inside many custom roms <located inside /system/media>)

5th)Now type

adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local

: If you also want audio to play with your boot animation find the mp3 audio file you want and type this

adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local

: If the command worked, you should see a prompt with "bootanimation.zip filesize 4,470 kB" or some file size (yours will be different)

6th)Now type

adb shell reboot

Please Note: not any audio or bootanimation.zip will work-no one is responsible for your actions. Hope this helps enjoy!!!

Thanks for this. Will update on how well it works when i finish making my animation.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] DeeBG:
This is very cool ID, I was j/w if you had any tutorial/example boot animations... I will check out the ones that come with the SDK, that may be enough to learn from (I'm very interested in creating my own, not just using other people's work without understanding it) for the Incredible. If there is a tutorial in the SDK, feel free to say "RTFM", lol, my phone is 15 miles away but I won't be able to get it until next week =/, but I want to be prepped to go at it before then.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Joe92T:
thanks for this, been wanting to put the nexus boot animation on my phone for awile now
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dincodee:
I cannot get any mp3 to sound during boot up. Anyone have any ideas. I figured it was because of the size of the mp3 but I even tried a small one and still no luck.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] money226:
More than likely you'll need an ogg file for sound. I'm about to change mine so I'll let you know.

android_audio.mp3 works as the file name :)

edit: sorry for the double post :(
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] NCX Designs:
your missing a very important command

cd foldername/tools then hit enter (make sure that your files "bootanimation.zip" and "android_audio.mp3" are in the tools folder or this won't work it will you give you an error)

then type

adb devices

it will list whats connected

then type

adb push bootanimation.zip data/local

hit enter

adb push android_audio.mp3 data/local

hit enter

your done!

restart your phone and enjoy your new boot screen

here's a how to video of how i figured mine out

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIBk1-NB_ZM&feature=player_embedded

and here's my result! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SnsXKFvGQs :) i had some help with the audio syncing, Santod from PPC helped with that part since it was off by a few seconds

Note: this is NOT my boot animation, it was made by a member on Phandroid forums, i'm sharing the files i used to get my result nothing more.

DO NOT unzip the bootanimation.zip to put onto your phone

UNZIP the android_audio.zip to the tools folder where you need to have both files stored to do the file push to your phone

Edit: Just to clear up some confusion, make sure the following files are in your Tools folder for the SDK

bootanimation.zip

android_audio.mp3 (be sure to unzip the zip file to the same directory as the bootanimation.zip file or this will not transfer)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] DeeBG:
haha, that's awesome m8. Now I am really inspired to create my own Bootanimation from scratch, but first I am going to work on something a little easier (working on 2 different live wallpapers atm... might put them up on the marketplace if they turn out as good as I envision them in my head... anything I make for the Android platform will of course be free to XDA Senior Members/Moderators/etc).
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] parkson:
sorry for the noob question but how do i remove the boot sound after I installed it via ADB in the instructions? i really dislike the one i put on...

thanks for any help
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dincodee:
you can just remove it from the the directory, rm "file name" But i am still not able to get my sound to work during boot up. Any one have this problem
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Reddog80p:
Dincodee..

Make sure you unzip the audio file and drop only the .mp3 into your sdk tools folder then push the mp3. Worked for me this way.

parkson...

I believe you can just push another mp3 named the same and it will write over the existing. If I'm wrong someone correct me pls.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Joe92T:
is there any way to do this via terminal emulator or astro on the phone itself? ADB does not work for me
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jsharp5680:
BootAni Loaded - Now What?

Hi there - so I get the whole process - piece of cake. However, Where does this data now reside on the phone? Using AndExplorer to view the directory structure, but can't seem to locate where the zip file contents are pushed to, or the *.mp3 file is residing. What if I'd like to revert to the old (and boring) Verizon Wireless boot ani?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Also, kudos to all who posted this.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Sko0baQueZ:
i followed the direction directly but when i reboot i get no boot animation at all, just a black screen until my phone actually boots to the homescreen. whats going on?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mav3tan:
I'm having this problem too. Rebooted twice and still no sound. Milestone btw :D

Not sure if it will work through emulator but u can do it through Root Explorer

edit: I'm referring to the Droid X boot animation
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bnavqm:
I have read a lot of threads about the sound on boot. I can't get the sound to work on my Skyraider 3.1 RC3. Tried to adb push in to system/media and adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local neither worked.

On a side note, Picasa opens every time i plug in my phone to the computer.

First post, thanks for the help
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] clambert11:
In 2.2 the path changed in the stock ROM.

Try /system/customize/resource

The new names in the Stock 2.2 ROM are now:

VZW_bootanimation.zip and VZW_Droid.mp3

Not sure if that will help in SR or not. Be sure to mount /system.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bnavqm:
Thanks, i got it working. Mounted in recovery, adb push to the system/media and it worked fine. Changed boot animation and splash screen. thanks for the help.

still cant figure out why picasa starts up on my computer every time i plug my phone to the computer and mount as a disk drive.

[Nexus One General] AndroidPerson:
I read that developers prefer and gravitate towards Apple and develop for Android more out of necessity. I do wish more companies could find value in Android so we could get more branded apps like bank of America, NBA, Facebook, Pandora, etc. I don't mind individuals entertaining themselves with their own development but 9 times out of 10 those kind of apps either don't work or don't serve a purpose. I didnt post this in apps section because my main interest is why developers prefer Apple over google other than the obvious that Apple has a larger and well established following. I see why devs would want to develop for Apple what I don't understand is what it is about google that would turn developers off. Is Android not developer-friendly?
[Nexus One General] newjaruz:
Yes this is partially true at the moment but with Android beginning to gobble up market share like its nobody's business it will be hard to ignore and the developers will have to put more work in.. in the long run Apple is starting to shoot itself in the foot. With lack of the ability to use flash tools to code apps or port apps that work on multiple platforms they are making devs make a choice and in the long run if they continue to practice business this way dev's will migrate and rather make apps for market places i.e. (android/BB/windows) rather than just apple who will be a small percentage of the market especially with the on handset/ one carrier approach... locked in with AT&T until 2012...

Android will destroy the market if this happens to be true... android will be like a plague... Apple simply cannot keep up on one carrier..
[Nexus One General] Amrosorma:
Yep. It's not just market share either, it's market tempo. Android's rise has been damn near meteoric and completely unexpected. Give the developers a bit of time to figure out what's happening to the market :)
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
I don't understand why you think developers are not coming to android. Isn't android just sky rocketing in the last few months? 50k apps and rising. It just takes time.
[Nexus One General] krabman:
It always comes down to money. With finite time you look to get the most profit per man hour invested. Realistically not too long ago if I'm trying to pay bills Apple would have been a better bet. Now that Android has hit critical mass the audience is there and I would expect the apps to follow. You can see it happening already with some of the more popular iphone apps starting to show up.
[Nexus One General] AndroidPerson:
Actually it was the article I read that suggested this, and yeah I was a bit confused by it so my first thought was to get some input fom folks here. And the replies have proven helpful so thanks to all. Some more branded apps would be great but I think its just a matter of time. I'm on t-mobile with n1 but luckily the other carriers care about doing business and advertise for Android so its steadily heading to universal popularity.
[Nexus One General] jamesyb0i:
I find it really *easier* to get Android apps I want from the internet rather than the market. Also I notice a heck of a a lot of spam and useless apps. Without moderation theres a sense of anarchy

Can I update spl after radio2.22.23.02?

I update radio2.22.23.02 first,and I want spl now,can I?

:confused: thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robertgibson:
Sure you can, I used the same radio, then flashed "danger spl" after. No problems as long as the spl you use is compatible with the radio.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sowhite:
thanks

thanks,thanks,thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mejorguille:
If you have adb installed make sure that you are flashing the SPL using fastboot. There is absolutely no risk at all by flashing through fastboot. 1.x radios have been shown running with danger when using fastboot, what was previously a guaranteed brick.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3s-rt:
That wasn't from just using fastboot. If that was the case, that would have been known a long time ago as a lot of people use fastboot instead of flashing.

The problem is an incompatible recovery image with the SPL when trying to boot again. ;)

Edit: Actually, that's just one a few guesses why it messes with a boot - that's not exactly why.

You can still soft brick from fastbooting it, it's technically just.... harder is only word I can effectively think of.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Thesniperz:
ok so i bought a universal car charger (link: car charger) and when i plug the charger to the 12V port of my car, my phone shuts off and it wont turn on. when i unplug it it turns back on automatically.

plugging into wall charger or computer usb works fine, so i dont think its the battery.

anyone having the same problems with car chargers? is there any setting for this? or is it just the charger i bought?

- Rooted phone, using CaNNoN202 Eclair ROM.

thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] raduque:
Probably it's a generic POS charger. I would either buy a Magic-specific charger, or buy a lighter socket > USB converter. That's what I use and it works perfectly.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Thesniperz:
yeah, that's what i was thinking.

i guess i'll have to return these and get a USB converter for the ligther socket. your phone doesnt turn off when you plug it in right?
[Touch Pro CDMA] JNeutron:
This is what I do:

Start>Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications

and then in the drop down menu I select:

Messaging: New email message

Messaging: New text message

ect...

I check the box "Display message on screen"

A few hours later the messages stop popping up on screen and I have to go in and recheck the box.

What gives??

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

[Nexus One General] player911:
My TMO Nexus One should be here Tuesday. I've played around with various android versions on my HTC Pure. My neighbor/friend has the N1 and 2 things I think I am concerned about is the Dialer and Keyboard.

The HTC Dialer and Keyboard is really nice. Can I just install them as packages vs having to flash the whole rom? Being a WM chef I know the Keyboard and Dialer can be complicated packages to move from device to device... but figured I'd research it before hand.

All my searching points to its not out yet... but they were from like Feb. Any update?
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
The HTC keyboard can just be added by installing an app. And a better speed dialpad called dial one is free in the market.
[Nexus One General] krabman:
Dialer one is a kick ass dialer and installs and uninstalls like any other app. Swype would be my choice of keyboard. Check the thread down in apps for the latest download links.
[Nexus One General] player911:
yea I found Dial One. Seems like a good alternative. I don't like Swype. I used to cook it in my roms for a while there but found the HTC keyboard has a better dictionary.

I can probably get by with Dial One and the HTC keyboard app. Thanks!

do you know how to do a restore for the LG Ally with this system dump?

if so, how? i've been looking and googling for days and this file has been the most helpful in my search for my missing files, i just need to know how to restore the phone cuz i reaaaallllyyyy messed mine up with deleting important things.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] skylarscar:
Ally apps from dump

I'm on a nonrooted Captivate using Android Central Sideload Wonder Machine, and have also tried Droid Explorer, neither can install any of the apps from the dump, does anything need to be done to the apk files before they can be installed?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Raadius:
I'm sure the Ally dump isn't de-odex'ed? To get these to work on another Android phone you need the odex files as well (apk and odex) and than they can work. As of right now the dump can only work on that particular phone, in this case the Ally.

EDIT: I was looking forward to this too. I want the clock/weather apk :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] skylarscar:
I know it's a bummer huh, can't find too many good alternatives to these official widgets and programs, a lot of 3rd party ones work OK but they just don't feel as clean. :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Raadius:
OP, can you get the odex files plz? That's the only way we can get these to run on a non Ally phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] skylarscar:
there is an odex file for every apk file in the app folder of the dump, if that's what you're looking for. like the weather widget you and I were both hoping for there's the apk for it "clockweatherwidget.apk" then an odex "clockweatherwidget.odex" right next to it. Forgive me if I'm not being of much use I'm just now venturing away from windows mobile.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LegionTHEFecalExcretion:
The .odex's are included. Could you elaborate?

I have only been able to get two Ally app's functional on other phones. I had to resign them, they are Socialite and Divx Registration. Both have been posted in other threads.

I think the clock/weather widget will only work with the LG launcher.
[EVO 4G General] 0okami:
The reason I ask is because I went to both verizon and sprint and i asked:

--at verizon--

Me: If I buy an Evo from sprint, full price and bring it here to run on your network will it work? being that both of you run CDMA I dont see it being a problem? am I wrong?

Verizon: No, it will not work. You should get our "incredible."

--at sprint--

Me: If I buy an "incredible" from Verizon, full price and bring it here to run on your network will it work? being that both of you run CDMA I dont see it being a problem? am I wrong?

Sprint: No, it will not work.

So I asked them both why not...?

Verizon: different hardware. And settings.

Sprint: Legality.

(they also said they have not had their training yet at that location for the evo... and they are only a few weeks away of a release. )

Can someone explain whats going on here? They made me doubt my understanding as to how cdma worked. It is to my understanding it should work on both networks. Question is, getting verizon to accept me as a customer with the evo. Someone correct me if im wrong.

Im set on the Evo, but I dont want Sprint. I want verizon. Not planning on getting the "incredible." For that I stick with the iphone 4g and att.
[EVO 4G General] kyleblakepeters:
There are ways to do it, but they are quite illegal (as in rape you in the ass prison felony). Look it up online, but don't expect to find that info here.
[EVO 4G General] 0okami:
Any chance for a little more clarification? A keyword at least to find my answer. I just want to know actually why they would reject a potential customer. I'm a little tired of smoke and mirrors.

I wouldn't want to do anything illegal like cloning. I just want facts. No big deal.
[EVO 4G General] adeyo:
tried it twice...no go

only way would be to hack the phone and change a whole lotta stuff...then change the esn to another verizon phone you own (which is illegal, i believe). then it is possible. however, i have two phones (one alltel, one sprint) and have requested verizon to add my esn's to their database (after i changed the 'whole lotta stuff' myself) ...eventhough the phones work on verizon, i could never get them to add them to their database enabling me to legally use the phone on their network. i griped and griped, they 'caved' in on more than one occasion, and said it would be done, but never did it. 15-20 total calls? and still nothing. i can't wait to tell them i am leaving...and for that reason :) i am not on contract. they tried to tell me numerous times it "wouldn't work, different hardware" but i have even tested it and made calls successfully, so it all seems to be a game. the one department that was designed to allow this, apparently closed. bottom line, don't waste your time. by the time someone posts instructions on how to do it, their will be 2-3 verizon phones more powerful -it is still a long way off.
[EVO 4G General] kyleblakepeters:
It's ESN switching. Sprint and Verzion never put each others ESNs on to the other's network. I don't think even Jesus could manage that feat.
[EVO 4G General] 0okami:
Thank you! thats the answer I was looking for. Much grateful!

What about the users that pay full price? Why would they do that if they cant take it elsewhere? Does it mean Even if they pay full price, the ESN belongs to sprint? It sounds wrong to do that. Im not complaining. Im just trying to make sense of this.
[EVO 4G General] kyleblakepeters:
Welcome to the world. Don't let the door kick you in the ass on the way out.

:p
[EVO 4G General] tricknasty:
theres a form you can fill out to take a cdma phone from another carrier and activate it on verizon, you need to ship your phone to vzw HQ though, and they say it can take 3 weeks to determine if they will allow it on the network or not.

its an official verizon form just gotta find it.
[EVO 4G General] 0okami:
I'll check with the verizon rep. She was really friendly and what ever she didnt know she dug for papers. :) Maybe we can work something out.

I'll keep everyone posted if something results.

Thanks for the information!
[EVO 4G General] johnsongrantr:
will not work on verizon, they have a policy of not taking sprint branded phones, the esn's are registered to sprint and they know it's an evo.

sprint doesn't take anything other than what they've registered... it's a sticky thicket I know.

esn cloneing would work, but we don't talk about that kinda stuff here apparently, gotten scolded on more than one occasion for doing so =P
