Credits to bernard_photography who initially made the animations and a version for the CDMA Hero

This should work for any device on any ROM

I have not tested the WVGA version since I don't have a Desire or Nexus (or something like that) so please tell me if it fits with the screen

Help me spread this awsome bootscreen: Post it on the theme section for your device!

First screen

Second screen

Instructions:

1. Boot your phone into recovery mode by holding the "home-" and "power" button

2. Go to your backup menu and select "NANDROID BACKUP"

3. Flash the .zip file that fits your resolution

4. (If anything goes wrong) Go to your backup menu and select "NANDROID RESTORE"

If you would ever like to restore the original boot screen flash your ROM .zip on top of this but remember if you've made other changes to your ROM they will disappear (themes etc.)

HVGA: for devices like HTC Hero with the screen resolution 320 x 480

WVGA: for devices like Nexus One with the screen resolution 480 x 800

QVGA: for devices with the resolution 320x240

Hey can you make a forum avatar from the first one with the baseball bat?

I love it...
[Android Themes] Deleted member 2500726:
Sorry for being stupid but "forum avatar"?
[Android Themes] Fermat:
That picture on the left, under your forum name, the blue dolphin. That's an avatar ;)
[Android Themes] Deleted member 2500726:
Haha okay will look into it tommorow :D
[Android Themes] Fermat:
Awesome, thanks!
[Android Themes] Deleted member 2500726:
Here you go :D
[Android Themes] Fermat:
Cool :)

Can you make it animated as well?
[Android Themes] Deleted member 2500726:
I don't think you can do that in an avatar... Also the file would be too big if I did...
[Android Themes] Fermat:
Hm I don't know about this forum but I know forums where you can do it.

Btw. can you see my avatar? I set your picture but I can't see it.

Dude i'm running [FroYo Sense] LeeDrOiD Mod V1.9a (24/08 l HTC 2.2 l Fast! l Stable! l Up to Date) on my desire. Your bootscreen works great I love it.

F*%KING AWESOME

Thanks man! Going to update soon. The animation runs to fast :P
[Android Themes] M109rjohno:
Looking forward to it ;-)

[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
It would be nice if there was a QVGA-edition too ... :s
[Android Themes] :
Just a second will make that too :)
[Android Themes] :
Added. See the first post :)
[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
I flashed the ROM but it won't work :(

I allways get a black screen. What am i doing wrong?

I also tried to make my own version of this one and resized all images to 240*320. Then changed the desc.txt and putted it back in a zip-file (no compression).

Whatever i try, it won't work :(
[Android Themes] :
It's not a ROM (typo?) it's only a bootscreen. If you flash a ROM and flash this bootscreen right afterwards without rebooting then you'll get a black screen. I might also be because it doesn't with your ROM. Could you link me to your ROM please?
[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
Yes, i'm using the Abyzou Pancake ROM (2.1) on my HTC Tattoo. I don't know the exact version of the ROM, i think it's 1.0.0 or 1.0.1.
[Android Themes] :
Wow that's wierd I can't find the bootscreen. This might not work for that ROM
[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
If I check it on my device, it is still located in /system/media/bootscreen.

Wtf! After flashing that bootscreen, my bootscreen files are gone :s
[Android Themes] AmaSan25:
which size would i use for the Vibrant? im guessing the WVGA??
[Android Themes] rexrbgh:
Anyone tried this on a Vibrant yet?
[Android Themes] darkamikaze:
mmmm.. I have a captivate..

if i just take the .png files and renamed them to the ones in my media/ folder,paste them inside as overwrite instead of flashing.. will that work?
[Android Themes] M109rjohno:
The update looks great man. Good job.
[Android Themes] :
Yes but there are some things you have to do first: The .png's has to be 8 bit, when you zip the "bootanimation.zip" again you have to set compression to store/no compression, when you pack it all you have to sign it. You can search google for "auto-sign" or something ;)

@M109rjohno thx man!
[Android Themes] :
Yes WVGA :)
[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
Did you allready found out how i can use your bootanimation? I really love it :(
[Android Themes] :
You could try exctracting it and pushing "bootanimation.zip" to where your bootscreen could be located.

data/local/bootanimation.zip

system/media/bootanimation.zip

etc.
[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
I did that, and the file bootanimation.zip is now located at the correct location. But it still doesn't work :(

I tried to extract the files but i get an error...
[Android Themes] :
I don't get how that Tattoo system works... I really have no idea what you could do:(
[Android Themes] skim7x:
Confirmed

Works perfectly first time with no complications on my phone:

Nexus One

CyanogenMod-6.0.0-N1-RC3

WVGA file

Thanks! Great work!! Keep it up!
[Android Themes] dakine:

[Android Themes] D-GTI38:
I'm assuming you can only do this if your phone is rooted also, correct? I'm new to this..just got Captivate about a month ago.
[Android Themes] :
Yes root and recovery :)
[Android Themes] ADeadlySpoon:
It won't install on Samsung Galaxy S I9000, it just says Installation aborted when I flash the WVGA.zip :(
[Android Themes] elecga:
Thanks for this but the animation seems very fast on the Droid X compared to the animation in the OP. Is there any way to adjust it?
[Android Themes] FuryriderX:
Mine said installation aborted too. No error code or anything, just that.
[Android Themes] exkalibur68:
for GALAXY S USERS

can't do it !

because on Galaxy S the startup animation is not based on BOOTANIMATION.ZIP but on other 2 files in SYSTEM/MEDIA:

bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg

:(
[Android Themes] FuryriderX:
Well thats retarded. So who's gonna port them over for us Galaxy users who want to lay a bit of smack down on apple?
[Android Themes] ADeadlySpoon:
Ah, that really does suck, is there anyone willing to delve into the Galaxy S to port this over?

I would LOVE to have this as my boot screen hehe. :-D
[Android Themes] Rubinski_be:
IT WORKS! I rebooted in recovery mode and wiped all my data. When i rebooted, the bootanimation showed up! I'm so glad! Thanks mate!
[Android Themes] hEaTLoE:
Love it!

Got it on my Inc with SkyRaider.
[Android Themes] ADeadlySpoon:
Is there no-one that is willing to port this to our beloved Galaxy S's :(

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaaT:
Hi everyone.

My Desire's (stock froyo, non-rooted) started acting up a few mns ago. When I try to go into the APN settings I get the error message "The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again", with the option to Force Close.

No matter how many times I try to go back there it keeps giving me the same error and rebooting the phone doesn't help. Any ideas?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android53:
Our phones cannot display more then ~56 fps due to vsync

Test settings: JM2, samset 1.8, mimocans ext4 fix + dalvik cache sent to nand, 8gb class 6 sd, all benchmarks were only run once.

Neocore:

200mhz : 36.8 fps

400mhz : 56 fps

800mhz : 56 fps

1000mhz : 56 fps

Yes, with our cpu reduced by 80% we still beat the nexus one and other froyo omapp/snapdragon cpu's in neocore.

Quadrant: (world & moon, the others are more difficult to test)

200mhz : 40fps : 410 Quadrant

400mhz : 56fps : 789 Quadrant

800mhz : 56fps : 1532 Quadrant

1000mhz: 56fps: 1762 Quadrant

Fps2d is 56 fps at all cpu settings.

-IMPORTANT-

Due to the nature of vsync we have no idea what fps we could be getting, Generally when you scale down cpu performance the bandwidth available for the gpu decreases dramatically as the processor cannot handle the new frames to keep up with the gpu. What this is showing us is that in neocore at 1000mhz we only require 20% of the cpu to get 36.8 fps and somewhere around 300mhz to get to the 56fps vsync cap. For all i know the gpu might only be able to output 70 fps without vsync at 1,000mhz, the question is by how much does reducing the cpu speed effect the available bandwidth to the gpu

This shows us:

1. Our gpu is largely held back by the frame-limit, the cpu also has an impact on the gpu performance.

2. We need better benchmarks to test only 3d performance, many of the 3d tests in quadrant are either heavy on the cpu, or are 2d tests. And neocore is simply not taxing enough on our gpu.

3. Need to find a way to remove vsync

4. Its a powerful beast! looking forward to froyo
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pika007:
Look foward to GLbenchmark 2.0

Even currently in 1.1 it's showing some impressive results, even though it's not supported very well on latest-gen gpu's (SGX530/535/540 mostly)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ostendk:
*off topic*

Would you please link / pm me to the Sd card you are using? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android53:
Its a Samsung 8gb class 6
[Galaxy S I9000 General] djglenn1337:
would underclocking the cpu to 600mhz for example help increase battery performance, or it it mostly the screen that drains the battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android53:
its mostly the screen
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ostendk:
But really really great research there ! :)

Its nice to know.. Hehe..

The next thing i would like too see is quadrant tests where the SGS has undergone the Lagfix and then with different SD cards :D

Hi all,

Amazing work with Android, thanks heaps to the community....

I wanted to ask if anyone has found call recording software that works, I have tried all the free software from market place and I also bought "Ultimate Voice Recorder" from the market place and it also doesn't seem to work.

Any help would be great.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] coolmarkoo:
not trying to flame but why do you need call recording

A wild guess would be to record calls ;)

I'd also like to be able to do it.

if nothing on android doe any one know if there is anything for winmo?? recording a call would be very handy !!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] seal:
I use Vito Audio Notes in WM and it is brilliant, it automatically records all calls. I am out and about alot and don't have pen and paper available all the time so it is so handy to just have the calls recorded and then when I am back at the desk I can either enter into dairy or write down the message.

But Android just refuses to record the calls, It records that the call happened but thats it. I can record my voice from with in the same app so thats all working but it will not record the calls.

Anyone got this working?????
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] voiceofid:
A semi working way to record a call is using Google voice. But it only records out going calls. It will also announce to the called that you are recording the conversation

I am no expert but usually u can try to clean all cache and history stocked on your browser.

And I would recommend you to use dolphin browser HD (free on market) because stock browser has become much slower after the 2.2 update.

But I think the problem lies within the connection settings.
[Desire General] Peikko:
Hi,

I want to remove apps from a rooted (official) HTC Rom and to make sure that I don't delete important stuff or apps which the OS needs i hoped you can tell me which I can delete and which should better remain on the rom.

Calculator.apk

Calculator.odex

HTCCalculatorWidget.apk

HTCCalculatorWidget.odex

The calculator does only the basic stuff and on the market I've found one which is way better.

Calendar.apk

Calendar.odex

Is this the default Android Calendar? The HTC Calendar is nother app, right? So I won't need this one.

com.htc.TwitterWidget.apk

com.htc.TwitterWidget.odex

Facebook.apk

Facebook.odex

HTCFacebook.apk

HTCFacebook.odex

Not using Facebook and Twitter and not planing to. I've found the Twitter Widget but how is the app called? Or is there none? HTCTwitter.apk?

com.htc.StockWidget.apk

com.htc.StockWidget.odex

The app for this is Stock.apk, right? Somebody know what stk.apk is?

teeter.apk

teeter.odex

Gmail.apk

Gmail.odex

Again ... I'm using the HTC Mail app.

HTCFootprints.apk

HTCFootprints.odex

HTCFootprintsWidget.apk

HTCFootprintsWidget.odex

HTCTwitter.apk

HTCTwitter.odex

LiveWallpapers.apk

LiveWallpapers.odex

Can Mode10Wallpapers be deleted too?

What is LiveWallpaperPicker?

What are these apps and do I need them? Clickr, Flickr

And the app called Peep is unnecessary for me too but can't find it in the app folder of the ROM.

Hope somebody could help me. I didn't find an explanation for the every app.

I just tryed my luck with the rom from which i removed quite a lot apk's. Put it on the SD, went to recovery mode, wipded the data and installed zip from SD Card.

No problems so far. But it didn't remove any app. Stock, Facebook, etc. still there. Some Ringtones which i removed from the rom are still there too.

What did I do wrong?
[HD2 General] Phantom1275:
Hi all,

I've been trying both HTC Desire and HTC HD2 just to find out which one I like most. I don't want to stay with both, so I wanna choose one and sell the other.

My plans were to play a little with TouchFLO 3D and SPB MS 3.5 in HD2 and then with Android in Desire. Each couple days I would use one of them to see which one is better for me.

At first I have started with HD2/TouchFLO 3D, using the official 1.66 PTG ROM. And then came the problem. I have a 8gb Kingston card, put 4gb of mp3 in it and try to listen in music tab, HTC Audiomanager. It starts searching for my mp3, starts loading them, loads, loads and then crashes. I have tried reformatting the card within a card reader and copying my mp3 to it, but again I got the crash.

My mp3 are all organized with embedded album art, /artist/album/music.mp3 folder structure.

Here's what I've been testing so far, with a 2gb and a 4gb card:

- 1.8gb of mp3 in a 2gb card, formatted with a card reader. Audiomanager works fine, no crashes;

- 3,7gb of mp3 in a 4gb card, formatted with a card reader. Audiomanager seems to work ok, but doesn't load many of my album art, and some are corrupted;

- 3,7gb of mp3 in a 4gb card, formatted with HD2 Format SD utility and transferred via usb cable (mass storage). Album art is ok now, but again Audiomanager crashes when loading all mp3. Also it crashes after 1 minute of music playing.

I don't know if this is a ROM bug or something like that. I have found some reports on that crashing problem, but none of them pointed a solution.

Is there a definitive solution for this??
[HD2 General] Phantom1275:

I am not getting push notifications on my facebook app..

Anyone else having this problem?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kakwvu:
Facebook still hasn't implemented global notifications, which makes this update completely worthless. The UI update is nice, but I'd rather have functionality at this point (coming from a Blackberry that is archaic compared to media usage.. I find this a bit ironic).

The sync feature is hit and miss as well. You will find two options in your sync options for FB now. One of them, even if left off, is a placeholder for your log in information for the app. Turning the sync on will just load another set of linked contacts, most likely slowing down Samsung's OS even more. I checked it out and then removed all of the links by turning it off (nice touch, FB). The feature will be nice for people who load a stock 2.2 ROM on their phone (when available).

I had mine to sync every 2 hours. Each time it would sync'd, it added another link to the contact. So, after 6 hours, I had 3 more links to my contacts that had Facebook.

I turned the sync off in the Facebook app, and used the sync with the phone. I have a Captivate and for some reason it has two different Facebook options in the account sync settings which do different things.

Does FB synchronize photos for you guys? I'm talking to friends with other androids and they say it does... not so for me. Wondering if its the Captivate or my settings.
