Boot animation for Monster Energy

2 ways to install...

bootanimation zip- do a adb push

monster_energy_boot1.zip- just flash from memory card

I recommend nandroid just in case something goes wrong or you want to revert back

I just rooted my HTC Hero (Sprint) Stock 2.1 and now I notice my Cpu is running slow. If I install SetCpu it speeds it up right away...Upon opening SetCpu I notice my Cpu speed says 245 mhz max/min. When I the refresh it it says 480/528 but after my screen turns off and back on it slows down again and returns back to 245 mhz. I never had this problem until after I rooted the phone. Why does my phone keep reverting back to 245 mhz and slowing down after I turn my screen off? Also it seems like my Battery life has gone down drastically...

edit: I intalled overclock widget and when I open it it also says 245 mhz. When I then set it up to 528 it makes my phone run fast again. As soon as I turn my screen off and back on it automatically reverts back to 245...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lineman78:
What ROM are you running? If it is not a ROM running an overclockable kernel apps like setCpu and OC widget will actually slow your phone down. If you would like to see your clock speed without this side-effect, I suggest SystemPanel.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
The 245 is what it goes too when sleeping, give it a minute or so and you would see that change on the apps, although your phone should be doing it right away. I suggest running a rom with overclock, and setting screen off settings to 245 min and 528 max, does wonders for my phone coming out of lock

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lineman78:
Depends on the ROM. Fresh Toast 2.1 has issues with setCpu and several people have reported issues with recieving calls if the screen off frequency is enabled in OC widget. I disagree with the screen off frequency for non-overclockable roms. Several users of Fresh ROM, not just myself have accidentally left OC widget or setCpu on when switching from toast to fresh and have noticed the same symptoms. Flipz himself has also said the same thing, if you try to overclock a non-OC ROM you will actually underclock it to the point it is unusable.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
I did say to do it on an overclocked rom. If it's a stock kernel, then do not mess with the frequencies, it's a fight, and kernel beats app every time, effectively stopping everything

till they agree

[EVO 4G General] AshMa:
Hello!

I've just moved to Android 2.1, coming from WinMo (HD2 Flashed WM6.5.x). I spent many long hours, tweaking just about everything in order to get the look I wanted. I was told by many, that I would have no problem doing all the same on the Evo and even much more. So I'm in love with my Evo experience so far and have no plans to go back to WinMo even though I was happy with it.

All weekend, I've searched high and low. Ran through nearly a hundred apps out of a list of 150 and growing. Yet here I am still trying to find a few types of apps and mods.

IS THERE:

1. An app like ListPro which is the best Windows Mobile general list keeping app ever made. I'm looking for an app to create general lists of all types, with custom fields and so on. And furthermore, having a desktop app that syncs with it, is also high on the list. Being able to enter data on a desktop and sync it all with great ease, to a matching mobile app, is something I would pay dearly for.

2. On the HTC Evo, the Sense home screen is okay but could really use a touch of xda Co0kies Home Tab. Looking, but can't find any such app. Recently, I downloaded nearly 200 analog clocks for the HD2 Sense home screen. Where are the Android custom analog clocks?

3. Is it possible to change the color of the top status bar of Android? And also how about the bottom bar? Can we not have wallpaper that extends the entire screen so that the bars match the wallpaper?

4. Can the slide to unlock bar be disabled? Pressing the power button is hard enough to not have to worry about the screen being on when not wanted.

5. How about an on-screen power/sleep icon/button? It would be nice to be able to put the phone to sleep without having to reach for that little power button.

6. What is up with the wallpaper??? At first I thought, well since I love my HTC HD2 wallpaper so much, why don't I just transfer it to my Evo. Sure thing but it ends up being cropped and stretched, no matter what I do. I've read page after page and tried a few different things and can't seem to get it right. I tried using a png image that was 960x800 after first trying the 800x480. I tried holding my finger in the crop screen and sliding the selection area but it will not allow me to select the entire image size. So the Evo Sense has 7 screens but why not just one image displayed in full screen, on each screen? What was Google/HTC thinking?!?!?!

I've searched many forums and I just can't seem to find the answers to these questions so far and so I figure it can't hurt to ask around.
[EVO 4G General] AshMa:
Thanks to jmxp69, an answer for number 4: Freeware app called No Lock in the Android market does the trick. Installing it and then activating it will turn off the slide to unlock screen. Furthermore it makes the volume up/down buttons wake up the Evo, the same as the power button does. So far it looks like it does not effect any of the 4 cap buttons.
[EVO 4G General] joeavery2:
You can install Menu Unlock form market [donate] or find it on xda for free. It works for me(I removed HtcLockScreen). I'm not sure I like No Lock yet. It works but it seems like it can be too much. Meaning I don't want it to wake and unlock, just wake from the volume buttons then slide or menu to unlock the screen.

That said I'm trying to get something like trackball wake going that will let the phone just be woke from sleep then you'll need to slide or tap menu.

The other thing I'm looking forward to is full display out on the HDMI. I want to see the home screen and games and anything else on the display.
[EVO 4G General] AshMa:
Thanks but now I'm trying to find a way to only disable the lock screen on wake up and only have it show up when the phone rings. Still looking and hoping to find a way to do this.......
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jus10o:
Your phone going to 245 is completely normal. It only gives your phone power when it needs it, and sitting on Setcpu screen isnt going to make it throttle up. You dont want your phone running at 528mhz at all times. It will KILL your battery. Our phones have a setting of "Ondemand", like gives the power on demand, if its not demanding a lot of power it will go back down saving battery life, CPU life and keeping temperatures down.

If you have problems with the phone running slow, i recommend checking out an overclocked kernel. You can run it at stock speeds, if you dont feel comfortable running OC. But if you want the extra power, the choice is always there.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skanndelus:
Sounds like something to do with conserving battery by dropping the cpu speed.

Well on a stock rom setcpu cant do anything other then read the cpu and it will only update when it is force refresh. If you want setcpu to be able to control or change your cpu speeds this will require installing a rom that is overclock enabled. There are several located on this forum.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifedogg:
For some reason SetCpu was doing this. I just set it back to 480/528 and rebooted it and then uninstalled SetCpu and now everything is fine. For some reason SetCpu was the cause of this. I reinstalled to make sure and sure enough it was happenening again. I'm glad I figured it all out :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lineman78:
Yeah, apparently you decided to create a new thread instead of utilizing the response I gave to your thread last night:

For future reference, anyone not using a ROM based on Toast's kernel DO NOT install an OC program. This is the typical behavior and it is not fun to deal with because you will have to be patient waiting for the phone to start up and open the OC program to set it back and uninstall. I believe that just uninstalling and rebooting is sufficient, but am not 100%.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifedogg:
I actually made that thread at the same time last night. I didnt know where to put it exactly...

now i want to test a 2.2 ROM with new radio. If that goes wrong or is somehow nothing i like, and i restore the nandroid +ext backup i made, will EVERYTHING BE THE SAME AGAIN as before flashing the new ROM ?

Or will some things last, like the new radio or something?

[Nexus One General] BKBRAM:
Ugh!!! why do I have to be the one who says this?? But sorry man, froyo is not rolling out tomorrow 6/7.

Theres something more going on then just trying to piss of the folks at apple....dont know if its gonna be good or bad....but im almost thinking teethering will be disabled along with wifi hotspot

:mad::mad::mad:
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
what do you mean "more going on"?
[Nexus One General] BKBRAM:
I think there's more going on then Google releasing froyo with the new Iphone to piss them off.

Like I said in my other post, I think they will be removing teethering and wifi hotspot.

Why? to please the carriers.

I really hope Im wrong, but it just seems like its taking way to long for froyo to be dropped officially.
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
I din't think they would remove tethering, they know how pissed the android community would be, plus its already in the unofficial version. And a carrier can track whether you are using tethering so its the carriers prerogative to charge the user if they have a problem with it. What makes you think that they are removing this feature?
[Nexus One General] ChillRays:
I ordered my N1 tonight... im so happy =)
[Nexus One General] Buck Shot:
why would they do that to please carriers? T-mo has a site dedicated to show you how to tether? When I had a BB, i called t-Mo up and they directed me to this site... Other carriers charge for this service... I def know Sprint does. What it does is gives you options, which is the point of Android. They should at the very least have a warning screen telling you that you can be charged depending on your carrier. If thats the case, Im rooted anyway.. Cyanogen FTW

http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/Internet-Connection-Sharing/bd-p/PhoneAsModem

as for the date, i dunno and dont care...my real wait is Cyan 6.0
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
I guess you're not familiar with programming at all. Do you really think dropping a feature takes that long? Compiling a build with feature enabled or disabled is about as simple as setting a global def, and the builds are tested in many configurations anyway.

Why are people so busy with dumb predictions? Google scheduled the final rollout in June. Well, June has barely begun, and they're fixing bugs, what the hell do you think they're doing?!

Could you please explain, how does a carrier track tethering? What is it different from phone's own data connection? They get down to IP protocol level for detection?
[Nexus One General] SirLegolas:
Hehe, I do agree with that. Froyo releasing during Apple's keynote should take away some of the people's attention from apple to android! :D
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
Yes, data is data, they cant tell where the data is going, as far as they know the phone is using it, but when data is sent back out through the phone it is sent out in packets (like all internet files) these packets contain everything useful in tracking a computer, based on these packets they can tell if it was sent from a phone or a pc, and the only way a pc signed packet could be sent through a phone is if it is tethered.

it matters because some people dont want to root, and because someone asked, thats why it matters.

[Nexus One General] johnnie93:
anyone think The official FroYo will have a smoother Launcher?
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
i dunno, but ive been using ADW all week and im lovin' it.
[Nexus One General] anstosa:
Yes, it is technically possible to figure out whether someone is tethering using the method you described. It's called deep packet inspection and it's illegal under the FCC's current definition of net neutrality. Granted they are just recommendation and not officially laws yet but any ISP that has employed deep packet inspection for any reason has come under heavy fire from the FCC, FTC, DOJ, and/or the media. The way that carriers usually know if you're tethering is because on other OSs, the tethering program itself flags the tethered data. In Android's case, Froyo's built in tethering does not flag data but the carriers could change the tethering app to flag or remove it entirely. Remember that Android is open source. the OEMs choose what to do with it and then the carriers choose under what conditions to accept the phones onto their network.
[Nexus One General] johnnie93:
I'm switching from Launcher Pro and ADW, Loving them :D
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
well yeah, theirs that

but the point is that they can tell when you are tethering versus not tethering.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
)

Ok, that's closer to what I thought. In that case, tethering from Nexus (or any rooted phone) will remain free, since any carrier modifications can be undone by simply flashing vanilla or custom ROM.
[Nexus One General] HighTech216:
All the carriers HATE tethering. Because they still sell those silly, cheap little USB antennas. The only time they will bug you about tethering is if your data usage is excessive. But I still don't think you'll have the ability to tether when it hits OTA.

They know people are doing it, but smart phones are so popular anymore that less than half of the people that own them know how to actually use them to their potential.
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
umm.... wasn't tethering touting as one of the BIG new features of 2.2? Something tells me that's not going to get dropped from the generic OTA from Google.
[Nexus One General] maxawesome:
You are apparently unaware of PDANet (not free) available from the market that allows you to tether via USB (and has since circa Android 1.5 I believe), and there is even another FREE app that does the same thing (though I can't remember the name).

Let's face it folks. Carriers monitor the volume of data passing through your phone, and if they suspect it is too high for a handset to require (i.e. you're running bit torrent or streaming netflix in HD or something) they will automatically ding you for it, with the exception of T-Mobile, which is WHY I am a T-Mobile customer (and they know this -- it is a point of differentiation with them, and a way they gain and keep customers).

So stop fretting about tethering disappearing overnight. It isn't "too good to be true", it is "the future of mobile", as in: EVERY PHONE FROM THIS POINT OUT WILL SHIP WITH USB TETHERING AND WIFI.

iPhone 4G, Android 2.2+, Windows Phone 7, BlackBerry whatever...they ALL have it. And they will ALL continue to have it. End of story.

Carriers LIKE data tethering.

T-Mobile likes it because their all-you-can-eat policy attracts new customers to them and keeps existing customers loyal.

Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, etc., they all like data tethering because it gives them another way to charge you MORE. They make MORE $$$ for the exact same service.

Why in God's name would they remove that ability? Why would it make them happy???

If they could find a way to MAKE you tether, they probably would. :D

So chillax please.
[Nexus One General] SpyderMS:
Generic OTA? Google doesn't send out OTA's, the carrier does. Google's "OTA" is the source code, which is 'sent out' by rom cooks like Cyanogen. T-Mobile could easily disable tethering, and it shouldn't surprise anyone if they did.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
No, the Nexus One is unbranded, Google send the firmware out OTA and they will not be removing tethering.

How monumentally stupid would they look if something they were shouting about during Google I/O was left out?
[Nexus One General] PacoL250:
To clarify, a HowStuffWorks article gives a nice explanation.

A carrier may only know if you're tethering or not based upon the size of the packets being sent back and forth along with the protocol being used. A protocol is a protocol, no matter what device is using it. So POP3, HTTP, etc. are all the same no matter what device is using it; however, combine that with a constant transfer of data via a specific protocol (e.g. 1 GB monthly data transfer on say FTP), then a carrier may figure one is tethering without a plan.

Also, I don't see how they would know with phones that use the stock "Google Experience" (e.g. N1 and Droid) compared to phones such as those with MotoBlur and HTC Sense that have some of a carrier's "bloatware" on it; with said "bloatware" being a way for a carrier to know if one is tethered or not. That's just a guess on my part though.

Hope I didn't sound too confusing being as it's late and I am about to hit the hay. :p
[Nexus One General] Blueman101:
right, the point is that they can figure out you are tethering though.
[Nexus One General] krabman:
Been tethering for ages on ATnT without hearing a single squeak outta them. Its a non issue so long as you dont pull down silly data. Lets try and find something worth worrying over if were going to get lathered up.
[Nexus One General] musashiken:
Lol. I'm living in Asia, I got my unlocked Nexus One from the google store. And I signed up for my local IPHONE data plan minus the Iphone.

And I got my Eclair 2.1 update 1 OTA just like that a few months back and I did not root my phone.

So if Google's not the one handing out the generic OTA, I wondered who did since the carrier thinks I'm on an Iphone. Or maybe they don't.
[Nexus One General] ram130:
You people are confused. Google is handing out the "update", not the carrier(OTA), its not them selling the phone! Your phone does a check for an update through the internet and when it's available, it downloads it from the internet(regardless of your location or carrier or if your on wifi or not). So all you have to do is just make sure your phone is connected to the internet..I can be in Jamaica right now with no data plan and still get the update via wifi. Don't get these terms mixed up.
[Nexus One General] Teeceman:

[Nexus One General] [IO]ERROR:
I don't have a EVO 4g but I have seen enough advertisements for them to know they say it comes with WiFi hot spot so I highly doubt tethering is getting removed..

I doubt we will see 2.2 today. Tomorrow? Maybe. 2.2 isn't going to be enough to steal Apple's thunder today but 2.2 is enough to drop a few stories about Apple tomorrow. Lets face it, today in the news is going to be 90% about Apple and I'm happy with that since most of the time it's about Android.

On the note of the thread... and comments stated by the OP; why in the hell would Google remove tethering from their unlocked phone?

This is half the reason I spent over $500 cash for a phone, so it wouldn't succumb to the restrictions of any carrier demanding what I can and can't do with my phone and plan I pay for. ATT can suck it and I'm sure Google has the same attitude.

What the heck is starting this stupid rumor anyways? Are you all just so bored you start pulling random crap out of yer butt to start commotion?
[Nexus One General] zippa71385:
I work for T-mo, I know that the average 3g user will use roughly 2 gb of data... If a phone is doing an extreme number above 2gb, you obviously are tethering a computer or sharing your connection as a hotspot. In which case you will be billed accordingly...

*** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ***

As far as the post above with the website for the BB's to tether... Except for the 9700 BOLD the rest are only EDGE not 3G... So, we are talking like 56k modem speed... you wont abuse slow speed! lol
