[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyh703:
Hi all,

I am looking to put a customer boot animation and everyone is showing directions for using SDK. Can you instead of using SDK do this on a terminal from within the phone:

mv /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource

mv /sdcard/SCP_animation_Final.mp3 /system/customize/resource

this is assuming I have already remounted the drive with rw access and the files that I am looking for are there.

Is there anything involved in removing files from the resource directory when placing new boot animation? Also, when you "adb push" is that just moving the files to that directory and removing anything that may be there?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyh703:
I am receiving the following error:

# mv /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource

failed on 'bootanimation.zip' - Cross-device link
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nief1313:
an easier way i found of doing it is to try:

download 'Boot Animation Changer LITE' from the market place

Using a file manager like ASTRO Navigate to the /sdcard/bootanims/STOCK folder

Delete the file 'bootanimation' in this directory

paste your version of the bootanimation.zip file

Open up 'boot animation changer lite' click on animations->Stock->change to boot animation->select 480X 800

reboot phone and u should be able to see your bootanimation :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyh703:
thanks, I ended up doing the SDK tools way, it wasnt that hard it was just stupid I couldnt do it from my phone. Thanks for the tips
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nief1313:
Using the way i posted, you can change the bootanimation using nothing but your phone.

i am working on trying to figure out how to make my phone lock and unlock like the mgs codec. i have got the files on the phone and it works but is way to loud. i have attached the files i used if someone with more audio editing experince wants to take a crack at it.

the files have to be in .ogg format and be labeled Lock.ogg and Unlock.ogg. i used advanced wma workshop to convert the files from mp3.

to put them on your phone if anyone wants this

1 reboot into recovery

2 mount /system

3 open cmd and nav to your sdk/tools folder

4 pull system/media/audio/ui (this will backup the files before you replace them)

5 copy the backed up ogg files from your sdk/tools folder to another safe location and put the modified ogg files into the sdk/tools folder

6 push Lock.ogg system/media/audio/ui

7 push Unlock.ogg system/media/audio/ui

8 unmount /system and reboot

also if anyone does do this could someone upload the backed up files for me i didn't think about doin the pull till i wrote this up and i don't feel like doing a nandroid restore to get them back.

edit my buddy confirmed that i had these backwards i guess that is what i get for not listening to the files first. i reuploaded with correct file names
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bonzai299:
what if you just took the audio files and decreased the volume of the actual file?

http://www.hlss.us/index.php?p=8
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] undeclared:
that is what i was thinkin just didnt know how to till my buddy told me when i showed him the lock and unlock on my phone. i am gonna go work on this somemore and i'll report back.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] orion0924:
I was wondering if you could walk me thru the steps in more detail... I'm not sure how to proceed past step 3! not sure if its cuz i have a mac... sorry this is my first post
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] verse187:
Nice will try this
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] invisiblek:
using audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

i used the amplify effect and dropped both ogg files down some

seems to be where i want the sound at, but you can use audacity (which is free btw) to drop it more if you want

http://www.mediafire.com/?etknj3uiv55ql99

fwiw you can adb push these while the phone is running if you adb remount before it (need s-off)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Zero0ftheArk:
so i tried this through the mount/system through clockmod and was able to push this files but it will not switch to the files i pushed, just uses the system defaults any suggestions? im thinking of just overwritting the rom zip with the new zip sounds and reflashing sounds good?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
I used root explorer and just put the files in the system/media/audio/UI and did a restart and it worked.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Zero0ftheArk:
right on ill give that a try
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] orion0924:
hey I used rootexplorer as well but i have a question because it does appear to be working. so did you MOVE or COPY all the files (mp3 + ogg) into the UI folder? It does not show up.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Zero0ftheArk:
i firsted removed the defaults and moved the new files works like a charm but for some strange reason the two sounds merge when i lock phone and the unlock works great not sure whats up may restore originals and try again but first attempt worked fine with the deleting and moveing, i was adding a boot animation and before i knew it both play? no biggie really they overlap each other so its not some drawn out tone
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Make sure you did not put the .mp3 and .ogg file in the same place just the .ogg
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Zero0ftheArk:
nah, i converted the mp3s to .ogg files since i lowered the sound volume since originals were enough to give me a heart attack lol

Hi

I am thinking of using a custom ROM and was wondering which Rom is best?

I have searched the forum but can't find much comparison of the find roms available.

I suppose what I am really interested is what they don't do.

Thx

[Desire General] max_carpenter:
As everyone says there is no 'best' rom different ones suit different people but I think a comparison chart between them would be great. I can design and host a chart on my web server if need be but I can't fill out what each one has but if people are willing to help out then we could create a good comparison chart?
[Desire General] muteor:
A chart would be great sadly I don't know enough about the roms to help much...

Some way of rating stability would be cool, or some sort of issue tracker.
[Desire General] matisamd:
thats a great idea and of course its more for those old dogs wo have donate for beer money to do hint hint :D apparently the new official froyo might well be the way to go as apparently it will allow you to save apps to sd which is all i wanted but any froyo rom would be the way to go i guess i am on 2.1 custom rom from the locker.com just cause there tutorial was simple enough for me to follow and didnt make me read as i have issues with my brain ;)
[Desire General] pascanu:
Your question is much too vague. You need to tell us what you expect from a ROM. There's no "best" ROM (we would all use it), people have different preferences/tastes/needs.

P.S. Check my signature for the best ROM :cool:

Hello Guys,

before Froyo it was possible do "disable" the Car mode by deleting the CarHome.apk.

But since Froyo, if you delete this apk, the Phone still switches to CarMode in the CarDock....

And maybe thats a reason for the loudness problem in the Cardock...

Does anyone know how i can disable the Carmode Completely?

thanks a lot

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nonomaybe:
I'm so happy to KILLED the evil Car Mode - here's how

Car Mode would pop up constantly on my HTC Incredible 2. It had nothing to do with the usb. Most times, the phone wasn't even plugged it and Car Mode would still pop up and Yes, I could click on it and disable it. For about 5 secs, then it was back. The worst part was that it would force-close the program that I was in to launch. It took me about 8 hours of research. Car Mode is a system app, and therefore can not be removed like other applications. You have to root your phone then delete, freeze or rename. Ok by me, but rooting apparently isn't stable yet for the Incredible 2 if you have a later os version than 2.2. Guess what? I have 2.3. No problem, how do i revert. Oh, i find out, you can't without resetting the phone to factory, which by the way is what verizon support suggested. I thought not before I back up, but lo and behold you can't back up more than contacts and pics without rooting. Arrrrgh! Next, I looked for an app to help me battle this devil Car Mode, so I tried apps from Amazon and market:

Advanced task killer Free

Astro

Gemini App Manager

Dock Nothingness

Dock no-op

Disable car home

and NONE of them worked, at least not for the Incredible 2.

I had a new idea, if you can't beat them, join them so I installed the latest version of Car Dock Home, hoping that at least it would give the option to not launch. Nope, didn't work. Luckily, I'm good at my job just because I don't give me 'easily'. Anyway, finally on my 14th try, I used 'DockNothing Free' from Amazon. At first, I didn't think this worked either. There was no input screen or settings but that's because the app doesn't initiate until the Car Mode launches, then it allows you to choose to select DockNothing as the default program. I had to do that 3 times: 1) Car Panel 2)Car Dock 3)Home Dock. Now I actually see a little popup that says 3 tasks killed. YEA!

Sorry for the long post, but I'll bet if you're here, you are going crazy because of Car Mode. And I read a lot more than just this much to get mine fixed. :)

ps. Car Mode actually looks pretty neat and seems useful IN THE CAR. But I have been too afraid to release the monster to check it out. I might at the next update. Might....

Im having the same issue here on a desire z.. The Dock nothingness and simmilar applications doesn't help with the "car mode" at all

it just replaces the "Car Home" App

It's the "Car Mode" that is the problem for me atleast.

when the phone enters/exits car mode the phone always returns to the homescreen.

Any progress on disabling this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moshbeard:
I got rid of it on my Desire by adding a shortcut to the homescreen and choosing Settings > Car Dock and then unticking Auto Launch. I never saw car mode again so it either fixed it or it was a coincidence.

I have a strange behaviour of BroadcastReceiver when trying to listen

incoming call. I set up the BroadcastReceiver to listen to both

incoming calls and sms. The BroadcastReceiver run after the booting is

complete. When first i fake a call into the emulator, i can not catch

the call. I try again with sms and my Broadcastreceiver can catch the

sms correctly. I try again with the incoming call and now the

BroadcastReceiver works. I restart the emulator and try again. It

seems that i always have to fake a sms to trigger the

BroadcastReceiver. After that the BroadcastReceiver behaves correctly

as i want.

Hi all,

Something weird is going on with my 2 yr-old tytn 2.

I changed my rom about a year ago, for windows 6.1. Since then i never changed anything anymore.

All of a sudden the phone said there was no sim-card in the phone.

I didn't open the sim-card holder or anything.

So, i took out the sim card, and inserted it again after cleaning it.

Nothing. Tried it a few times, and one time it worked for 5 minutes, and then again nothing.

Yesterday i wanted to use tomtom, and i found out the phone doesnt recognize my CD-card either..

That's why I think I have some kind of virus instead of a hardware problem,

Any solutions?

If necessary, i would like to do a hard reset, and install windows 6.5.. but where to find?

Thx in advance
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stylez:
Have you tryed a hard-reset?

Rule out virus as there are so few for PPC and the ones that have don't effect the system.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] howhi50:
Sorry to break it to you man but I had the same problem and it turned out that the main flex cable had gone bad.

So I *228 and it says its programming but the spl unlock message doesn't show and it doesn't tell me its going to reboot... and still shows

I'm using skyraider 1.9 with Hydra underclocked w/ n... showing the 65144 prl...

Even when I switch back to stock rom it shows the 65144 prl and not able to update it...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mellojosh:
The Sky Raider roms dont seem to have the EPST components included. Usually, ##778 will allow you to check the PRL and manually program the phone, but on this ROM, the EPST files are missing. I think whats going on with the *228 is the phone is receiving all the information (SID, NID,PRL, MDN, etc.) and then just quitting when it can't apply the information due to the missing files. I suggest making a backup and then restore some other rom (like the 2.1 binny rom, for example) and then update, then do a restore back.

65144 - hybrid (use alltel towers first)

Thats the difference. If you live out west or up north you may want to stick with the hybrid since most of that footprint is alltel.

Hey everyone,

I got this phone yesterday, very familiar with Windows Mobile. I'm using the latest OEM TMobile ROM and I manually uninstalled applications since they're part of the ROM they don't show in remove programs. I installed Opera Mobile 10 and it's not working the way I want, the problem is that I've deleted ONE file belonging to the old opera, the one located in Windows\Start Menu\Programs, called "Opera Browser" or something. I don't want to do a hard reset just to get one file back, especially after having tweaked the phone so much. Can someone just upload the file here so that I can move it onto my phone?

Thank you so much for all your help.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] downsay:
I am an original Motorola Droid owner. I love my phone. The one thing that drives me crazy more than anything? The inability to easily move my on-screen cursor to the proper location.

Why not use the D-pad you might say? I hate typing on a physical keyboard. I am sold on touchscreen keyboards through and through. In fact, I strongly prefer texting in portrait mode via touchscreen. Portrait keeps from taking up the entire screen (more viewable therefore imho more interactive, and easier to use than a physical keyboard

due to its superior access to the keys (no depressions such as on the physical keyboard)).

I was using a friend's HTC Evo 4G the other day and although I wasn't sold on the Evo's keyboard, I was definitely on board with the navigation arrows located below the normal bottom row (the one including the spacebar). This is enough of a reason to make me want to switch to the HTC keyboard as my default.

Has anyone looked into porting the HTC Evo 4g Keyboard over to other android devices?

How difficult would this be to do? I'm a newbie, but this is something I have been desperately searching for since I first got my Motorola Droid.

I switched from an iPhone and the ease of cursor changing is the ONLY thing I still dearly miss from my iPhone. It is also something my friends still hold over my head as a better solution than the missing D-pad for the on-screen typing on the Droid.

"Everything iDon't, Droid Does." Unfortunately this is not entirely true

Thanks in advance! and in case you don't want to read this entire post, here's the main question:

Has anyone ported the HTC Evo 4g Keyboard to other devices? If not, can it be done?

Hi,

I'm using the standard People widget at the moment on 2.1

What I'm looking for is something more like Outlook, where I can list people in the Address Book by prioritizing their first name, last name, or company.

I also find it frustrating that in the current Contact you cannot view the entire address of a contact. It shows the first line or so and then if you click it, it just opens google maps.

I also find the sidebar scroll throught the address book difficult to use. A simple alphabet down the margin would be preferable.

Any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks

I have problem to manipulate and access to internal storage of my Desire (/system/app and /system/lib/). Even though Root Explorer/ Estrong Explorer/AndExplorer can see the system file but I cannot move/edit/copy/paste files to those above mentioned folders. And the Droid explorer on my PC can also see all files on Desire but not make me copy files into system folder. I'm using root Desire phone with the LeeDroid 1.3a ROM. Newest super permission users 2.2 is also included in this room and the Read/Write permissions have been set for any explorer. Is there any way for me to make PC recognize internal storage as drive (like external SD card) or is there any solution to copy files into system folder on internal storage successfully? Because I would like to install Java for my Desire but ADB and some method require to copy file into internal storage. Pls advise me about installing Java to run MIDlet Java Games and show the way to show the problem of internal storage recognition and root permission. Thanks for all. Hope to hear good news from all of you !!! :)
