i have been tring this for the last hour. THANK YOU FOR THIS POST!!!

i am running deodexed froyo 2.2 stock... i used pushboot2 and all is well!!

THANK YOU X 11tyBILLIONZ
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
Maybe its a Cyanogen thing not a FroYo thing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] letsgoflyers81:
This worked, thank you! You might want to update the original post just to avoid confusion.
[EVO 4G Android Development] weidong:
Both Pushboot2 and PushbootFroYo failed for me, Fresh 3.1.0.1 or whatever the latest one is on my Evo. I'm trying to flash the BIOS bootscreen over the Fresh one. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] emulatorx:
worked great for me on htc evo with fresh 3.1.0.1 w/ toastmod 3.7.7 also running the manup theme AND the battery % modified CIRCLE icon

where can i get more bootscreens for the future?..the included nexus boot should hold me for a bit though
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
on dc 3.5. pushbootfroyo would not work. pushboot2 worked.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Neither the 2 or the Froyo work on Fresh 3.something
[EVO 4G Android Development] jcjr81:
So do I have to run the bat file from a windows computer or do I do it on the phone? I'm hoping this can be done on the phone because I only have Macs.

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
hmm, I will look into that.

has to be from a windows computer.

I'd make an app for it, but I have no clue how to make an app...lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Try the pushboot FroYo on fresh.

Also, I just made an audio delete bat for those who want NO boot sound. Will be uploaded shortly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NVETHIS:
I first used the Pushboot2, but that didn't work. I tried the Pushbootfroyo and that worked to change the animation, but the sound doesn't play. I only had the 1 .zip and .mp3 file in the folder? Any ideas??? I'm rooted and Full NAND, running Calkulins 1.0.2. Thanks.

[EVO 4G Android Development] iTouch24:
great tool !!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] lucidvtec:
why doesn't my EVO show up in ur shell???
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
to get a quiet boot everytime...

some of the tools would only change the boot sound *if* there was an mp3 in the folder to be pushed.. so no mp3 = no change. and some of our custom ROMs have undesired sounds. so this was my solution...

i went into the PushBoot folder and did the following:

- right click -> New File -> Text Document

then i renamed that txt document SPC_animation_final.mp3

it is 0KB in size and thus silent.

-

NOTE

: make sure you can see file extensions else this won't work properly. ex: you should see PushBoot.bat (not just PushBoot) and bootanimation.zip (not just bootanimation)
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
The bootanimation.zip has to be set a certain way for sounds to play, Post what you used and I will look at it.

I don't know. Do you start it in htc sync mode?

Or...you could use the sounddelete bat I included in my latest update...much easier.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
or that. :)

sorry, not trying to jack ur solution. just providing back a lil of what i've learned. the reason i liked your solution was that it was in plain bat files that i could read.

oh...and by the way....

Thank you. I appreciate the tool you provided.

HALP!
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
weird, what are you trying to push if I may ask?
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOKeith:
I am trying to push the two attached files.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOKeith:
Any ideas on this? I am at a loss at this point.
[EVO 4G Android Development] corelle:
Perfect your the Man!

Some smart dudes over here at XDA I just did it all by myself cuss of (evanscnce) I feel like i can make my own roms now hahaha!
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
which bat are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOKeith:
I tried pushboot2 and pushbootfroyo
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
your rooted right?

which method did you use to root?
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOKeith:
I used the idiot proof way, well, because I'm an idiot sometimes.:p

Also running BakedSnack 1.2.5 if you want to know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
I think that might be the issue. Based on the error its doing it when the bat tries to mount the system in shell.

I used toast's method
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOKeith:
Boo, I try to do things the easiest way without much room for me to mess something up. Is there an alternative way to load custom boot animations that will work with my root method?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
give me a couple minutes, I think I got something easy for ya =D
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
you wanted a sound too right? email it to me at imthadisturbed420@gmail.com
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOKeith:
You are the mother effing man. Your fix worked like a charm.

AAAA++++++ will buy from again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Glad to hear it! First time using that method so I wasn't sure when I was testing on my phone =P
[EVO 4G Android Development] pdaddy:
I have been trying this for a while and going through the thread. I can get the boot animation to play and then other times it wont. I cant get the sound to play at all. I have used all the methods provided. Tried about 20 times now. Please help. Its a simple animation and the sound file is good to go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
post up what your using and I can look at it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Can someone please lend a hand here? I have created a very cool png sequence and sound to use as a boot screen. How do I load them now? I have zipped them up... but now I am lost...
[EVO 4G Android Development] colourfuze:
What folder do we put the boot animation.zip in ?? The unzipped push bat folder?? I tried to upload one. Instead I lost the boot animation altogether.. When doing the pushbat2 or pushbatfroyo it says 0 of 206?? sent two times. So i would guess the folder is in the wrong place and its not pushing?? HELP please! Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Post it up and I can make sure its all zipped up nice and right.

Yes, it goes in the same folder as pushboot2.bat

It should push to the device and then you should have a bootanimation, that is of course, if you used a properly zipped and designed bootanimation.zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] keishou:
No sound with CM6 RC2? Before I used pushboot2 when using netarchy's rooted stock 2.2 and it worked fine, boot animation with sound. Now flashed over to CM6 RC2, used same .zip and .mp3 files except used pushbootfroyo. Animation moved over fine but no sound??
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
i am updating the files now. Then I will change the instructions.

There will no longer be a "pushbootFroYo" Now its PushbootCM6 and it is fixed so it should work with their rom. If not, let me know. Also make sure that the bootanimation.zip your using is properly done.
[EVO 4G Android Development] keishou:
Yea, it's the same bootanimation.zip that worked with sound when on rooted stock 2.2... waiting for download link :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Well its up in the OP. Let me know if it works for you

Sent from my Evo fo sho
[EVO 4G Android Development] keishou:
I saw the edited text but no link for download... :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
still no links in OP?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Very sorry. I don't know what happened to my upload.

Anyways, its up now. Sorry for that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
no worries - ended up using root explorer. Love the edits - that desire on first bootup always bothered me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iiiiaann:
any chance you could make anything like this for a mac?
[EVO 4G Android Development] keishou:
DL'd... Still see pushbootfroyo.bat in the zip not pushbootcm6.bat... Still tried it anyways, but no luck, still no sound on boot. Flashed back to rooted stock 2.2, used pushboot2 and it works fine. Flash to CM6-RC2 again, no sound. :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
If you're having trouble with the bat file, use astro or something to search for your bootanimation.zip file (should be in the system folder somewhere), then use root explorer to replace it with the new one (renaming the new one to bootanimation.zip). Then use root explorer again to remove the mp3 file from the same directory, and you should be good to go.

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
This is crazy, I am following exactly what has been told here in this fourm... First off. Someone please tell me why there is no "pushbootcm6" file like it was stated in the beging of this thread... Next... can the pushboot2.bat be used if your running Cyanogens ROM, because there is no pushbootcm6.bat?

Next, I am putting my bootanimation.zip file in the same folder as the pushboot.bat... following the prompts.... rebooting.... and I get nothing.... well I shouldn't say nothing.... I'm getting the same boot screen that came with the nightly rom.... What am I doing wrong?? Once I get this figured out I have a few really cool boot screens I made that I want to post !! Someone help please! I should point out that I am fully rooted.

I'm a television special effects editer... not a developer... but I know a lot and learn fast...
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
read my last post - the one right above yours, for what might be an easier solution.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
I've made some progress. Using the pushbootfro file. I am able to push the files to the phone... But the problem I am running in to now is the screen just goes blank when the boot screen should be up. If I take the orignal bootanimation file and push it... it works just fine... so what doesnt it like about the other file I have created?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Superboot animation

Here is the file I am trying to work with.... someone help me !
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
You got help - see my previous few posts.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
The file has been replaced... Its still not working... Thats is why I have come back to you...
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
lay out step by step what you're doing, and I'll see if I can help.

edit - if that was directed at me, anyway:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Thank you Thank you. Ok from start to finish what I've been doing... and getting no where. I've unziped the Nightly rom and found the bootanimation.zip file. I've unziped that and found the files inside. I've replaced the files with my own, making sure that they are exactly the same in everyway! ( I work with png sequences all the time) Once I make sure that everything is the same, I zip it back up and push the file to the phone. When I reboot the phone I just get a blank screen where the boot animation should be. What am I doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
no worries, here's what you do. first step - scratch the processes you were using (this is what I've been trying to say in my prev posts - I think you got confused somewhere ;)). And note that I'm not using CM, but this should still work.

Load up the nightly rom as-is, without any changes. Once you flashed the rom and everything is working right, then you can change the boot animation.

1 - Copy the new bootanimation.zip to the phone, somewhere where you won't confuse it with the original.

2 - run either astro or estrongs file explorer and run a search for bootanimation.zip. it will find your new one, as well as the original - the original will probably ibe somewhere in the systems folder. remember the location.

3 - using root explorer, navigate to to where you put the new bootanimation, and copy it to clipboard.

4 - still in root explorer, hit the button at the top to switch to r/w, and navigate to the folder where the original bootanimation.zip is, delete it, then paste the new one in that folder.

5 - optional step - you can also delete any mp3 files from that folder (if any) to remove any boot sounds

Basically what we're doing here is essentially a simple cust and paste job. I would still suggest doing a nand backup before any of this though, since I always get nervous playing around with the boot routines. Hope this works for you - let us know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
For some reason it won't let me delete the files from the system/media folder. Also I cant paste in my new one.... Man this is becoming a pain !
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
what are you trying to use to delete the file? if root explorer, did you press the mount r/w button first?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
I was using astro
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
I have tried to delete and replace the file with 3 different apps now... and no luck... its like the file is locked there by default. Let me know what you think.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
I specified earlier what program you have to use - it's a system file, so astro and the like won't work. You're only using astro to do the search to find out where the original bootanimation.zip is located - you need to use root explorer with r/w checked to do the copy and pasting. Refer back to the 5 steps I spelled out in my prev post and follow them EXACTLY - otherwise I can't help you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
Ill be fixing the download tonight so try to be patient. Sorry for the wrong one, **** gets confusing lol...
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
no worries - good luck
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
fixed. sorry for that
[EVO 4G Android Development] fachadick:
its all good - hope you didn't mind me helping that other guy out on your thread using a diff solution...
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Thanks for all your help again, I had to call it a quits for the day. I'll pick it up again tomorrow. I really hope moving that file works. Buy the way, is there a free root file manager out there?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
I am pretty sure your file is ****ed. PushbootFroyo shoulda worked as it just wasn't renamed.

I will check the file out and see if I can get it workingggg
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Thank you, I would love some extra help on this. I asure you that I made that file exactly like the one that comes with the nighly roms. Its not in any way ****ed. I also have a nice mp3 that goes with it that really makes the whole boot screen pop! Can't wait to see it working ! ( Now that I got the master involved )
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
I have it kinda working. when you zipped the file it was also compressed. The zip has to be "store only" mode so not compressed at all. IMO though it played a little funny the way its set up. I can send it as is, or I can see if I can make it smoother. Your call
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Just tell me what I should do on my end. I'd love to see it working smooth though... Once I get this working nice... I have the means to make some very nice boot screens for everyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evanscnce:
use winrar. When you zip it, make sure it says store under compression mode
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Thanks again. I'll let you know how this works
[HD2 General] Zhibbhi:
Hi there.

I've had problems with my HD2 since I got it shortly after release last year. I've upgraded it to the latest ROM 1.66 and I still *had* problems with extreme sluggishness and freezing. "Services.exe" was a program that often got problems. I also had the "sleep of death" syndrome.

After I updated it and did a hard-reset I used PIMbackup to backup my contacts, SMS messages, appointments and such. No programs were restored. It still had the same problems. So I tried different things, but with no luck, until I did a hard-reset and restored everything except for my SMS messages. There were about 1600 of them, which I personally think is not that many. Now it runs fine, no freezing nor sluggishness.

So my question is, is it normal for an expensive smart phone like this to get that slow and unstable just by having a little too many SMS messages?

Thanks in advance.

/Zhibbhi
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
i've just gone an deleted 5000 SMS's and i was not having any problems with slowness.

I just deleted them for a bit of house keeping, thats all.
[HD2 General] mon_money:
i weekly take backup of sms's using pimbackup. if i dont clear the sms then it will b very difficult to text and open the application. it takes around 10-15 seconds to open a conversation thread with mor than 2000 sms's and around 8-10 seconds for 200-700 sms.

I weekly send around 4-5000 sms's and this fone have only one BAD point.. that is Messaging client.
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
is that using the HTC Messaging client? or WM SMS?
[HD2 General] Zhibbhi:
So if you can have triple the amount of text messages than me, that must mean that there is something wrong with my phone, right?

If I send it to repair, they'll probably just hard-reset it, take a quick test on it, and sent it back saying they didn't find any problems on it. Isn't that right?
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
What messaging client are you using? HTC or WM?
[HD2 General] Zhibbhi:
I use the HTC messaging client.
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
thats may be why, i dont, i found with HTC messaging client that with as little as 100 sms in my inbox the client would lag, so i reverted to WM messaging client and runs like a dream, on its not the best looking client but still, does the job as they say.
[HD2 General] Zhibbhi:
Ah, ok. Where can I find the WM client?

Thanks for your help!
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
im not 100% sure but i think there shuold be a way of dissabling HTC client and it will default to WM SMS, maybe someone else could shed some light on this
[HD2 General] Zhibbhi:
Nevermind, found it =)

A million thanks for your help djchubbs! =D
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
no problem, like i said, its doesnt look great but performance wise you should notice the difference.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] StaitEdgetEdge:
Hey all,

I really liked the fact that i could see the facebook status of the person that i was texting at the top of the thread in 2.1. Is there anyway that you could get that same functionality in Froyo?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] nephron:
haha i just noticed its not there! LOL nice catch. Bump to this :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] helfone:
i still have it o.O
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] StaitEdgetEdge:
Would porting the messaging app from 2.1 to 2.2 be the only way we could do this? Would this even be possible? Because i know a lot of people use Handcent but the reason i dont use it is because i like being able to see the persons most recent facebook status at the top of my thread
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] uberingram:
The new messaging app is better.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JediMasterASD:
Why is it better?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Android Touch:
Can anyone confirm it's not there anymore?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Tito2007:
Not there just checked.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] torchedlh:
I hate the new messaging app. So cluttered and messy with pictures for EACH message. Not to mention the gray box for me!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] blunden:
It's a gray box for you because your sim doesn't list your number. If you see your number under Settings -> About -> Status. If it lists your number under My Number you can just add yourself as a contact with a picture and it will show up. Otherwise there are some phones that allow you to add the number. I personally used a simcard-reader/writer for my computer.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] StaitEdgetEdge:
Yeah i have seen the messanging app on my freinds phone and i dont really mind the fact that there is a picture for each message, but I would really miss seeing the persons most recent facebook status because I might not necessarily see thier status on my news feed. The lack facebook status on the messanging app is the only reason I havent flashed the froyo test build
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] StaitEdgetEdge:
Bump for help/info
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] uberingram:
What info or help do you want? It's gone.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] StaitEdgetEdge:
Idk maybe some info on a possible backport? The new messanging app is not as clean as the old one in my opinion
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] torchedlh:
I know, but thanks for your help. I had to use an old SE phone to change my SIM number. But seriously this is a really large oversight on Google's part. Like I am suppose to make a contact of myself just so I can have a picture there?? That's ridiculous.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lazzzara:
Is also like this. Much prefer the messaging app from cyanogenmod /:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] StaitEdgetEdge:
Well my friend tried yesterday to simply uninstall the 2.2 messanging app and to simply install the 2.1 APK using ASTRO and it failed to install. Im not sure if pushing with ADB will work but just trying to simply delete and install definitely didnt work
[HD2 General] bswinton:
Whenever I have a text comming through, my HD2 lags a bit until the message is here. Any help would be appreciated.

*I am using the stock rom with the 2.13 update
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
the stock roms are pretty laggy throughout the whole phone. I know I had the same issue as you had. I suggested you flash a custom rom onto your phone if you are worried about the lag. I can tell you from experience that after a while you want to pull your hiar out, luckily for me I barely have hair to pull :D
[HD2 General] bswinton:
ok thanks. What rom are you using?
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
i am using an energy ROM i used a couple others but to me this is the most stable and doesn't over do it to the rom like some of the others. don't forget you need to put hspl onto your phone before you flash custom roms
[HD2 General] speoples20:
If you don't want to flash a custom rom try deleting your text every so often. Don't let your text threads get larger than 200. It can slow the phone down if it has to load that long thread every time you get a text.
[Desire General] Sidewindr:
I've searched and searched and cannot find where to get the .zip version of the rom??

I tried running the RUU and then copying the rom.zip from the temporary directory the install creates but when I try to flash it with the various recovery utils I get filename.zip (bad) ... what am I missing here where have I gone wrong??~!!

I have managed to root my Desire no problems .. but it's rooted to 1.15 an I originally had 1.19 on it .. I want to install the latest 1.21 rom but cannot work out how to get the .zip file I need for the flash.. :*(
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dinhy34:
So the CDMA TP2 has a sim card slot in them so they would work as gsm devices if unlocked. I bought one for a month and now im having some issues with it lol. Everything runs fine but this one problem. When i go somewhere and lose signal for over 1min or so i get a 1x. once i regain signal and receive some bars the 1x is still there instead of E or G. The 1x is a problem for me because i cant receive or send messages and phone calls with it. Only way i know that fixes it is to reset the phone but does anyone know how to fix it, fix it? Like a change of settings or installing a .cab file that would fix the problem? or would this be a radio issue?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dinhy34:
sorry lol i feel stupid. Its my first time having a cdma/gsm phone so i started exploring the phone settings. turns out i didnt change the baseband to GSM.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] djteotancolis:
change your network settings to gsm and not global
[Desire General] Judge584:
Hi,

I have an Orange Branded Desire.

I have made a goldcard for it, and then had flash it with latest HTC stock rom with success.

What I would like to know is since my Desire is now flashed with a stock htc rom, will i need my gold card for future flashing and/or rooting???
