anyone getting luck with KaosFroyo and this boot? :) Love the classic look. Also is there any posts for getting the standard boot animation back? Just in case I go ***** at Verizon one day
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] magnethart:
I've never had any problems with boot screens on KaosFroyo.

put bootanimation.zip in your tools folder.

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

to check to see if it worked

adb shell bootanimation

use ctrl^C to end
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2698279:
hmmm how do I get root while pushing files? I have root but its mounted as R/O by default for adb

Edit: Nevermind had to remount hahaha me = dumbass

Edit2: Except now it doesn't seem to want to run bootanimation...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] magnethart:
sorry i forgot to include the remount line first.

adb remount

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

(you'll see some information about file sized pushed if it worked)

adb shell bootanimation

(to check install)

ctrl^C

don't know why it wouldn't run your boot animation. Use root explorer to look in your system/media folder and make sure you've got bootanimation.zip in the folder (and only one copy of it).

From looking around xda forums, I've seen comments about boot animation in data/local but I've always placed mine in system/media when I've used kaosfroyo or any other froyo based rom.

I really like this a lot.

So much so that I have been working on modifying it for the eris.

Does anyone know any specifics of what the png files need to be?

I created mine in photoshop 7, saved each one as png files and named them in numerical order, but I just get a blank black screen. (I also made sure they were 320x480)

Do they have to be a certain color depth?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] patches152:
no clue, but i want one updated for my eris in the worst way. also, maybe make the font a tad bigger so it's easier to read? idk if this is possible without having the text cut off or wrap or something...but i'm willing to help if there's anything i can do.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] sbarne3:
eris animation

I figured out what the problem was... I wasn't saving the zip correctly

You have to create a zip with no compression ("store" in 7zip)

If you want to make your own changes, I have attached the psd file I used in addition to the bootanimation.zip (which is ready to be uploaded to your eris)

My photoshop skills suck so don't laugh too hard.

Also note that the animated gif below only shows the part that I modified, but the bootanimation.zip contains the full sequence.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Duffman3005:
Hmm seems like I'll have to modify it to show V27. Other then that great work!

For anyone on KaosFroyo heres the fixed Bios boostscreen for ya.

It can be found in this topic. Big kudos to sobsmb for taking the time to fix it.

My advise: Stick to Stock......

Dit gaat erg lastig zijn....

Enerzijds omdat er bij het flashen van custom roms nogal voorbereidend leeswerk komt kijken en er behoorlijk wat dingen fout kunnen gaan, waardoor je met veel vragen en/of een dooie telefoon blijft zitten. Anderzijds omdat dit een engelstalig forum is, juist vanwege de internationale gemeenschap hier en er van je verwacht wordt dat je een minimale mate van engels beheerst om de standaard dingen zelf te zoeken, op te lossen en uit te sluiten.

Persoonlijk lijkt het mij verstandiger dat, aangezien zowel de techniek als de taal een probleem zijn, je veilig bij de standaard ROM blijft. Dan heb je in ieder geval een functioneel toestel. ;)

Overigens adviseer ik je wel om als je een vraag hebt deze slechts 1 maal te posten en niet meer. Zo blijven zowel zoeken, als een eventueel antwoord terugvinden te doen en het forum overzichtelijk.

-------TRANSLATION--------

This is going to be difficult.

Firstly, because flashing custom ROMs is something that comes with a fair bit of required reading material before you even start. Even then there are a number things that can go wrong leaving you with many unanswered questions and/or a "brick".

Secondly, this is an english language forum due to the international community here. We kind of require a minimal level of understanding of the english language in order for you to read up/search/solve and rule out the already well documented things you can run into.

Personally I would advise you, since both the language as well as the technical part are problematic for you, to stick with the stock rom that came with your device. This way, at least you'll have a functional phone. ;)

Finally, I would advise you to post any questions you do have only once and in the appropriate forum. This will make it easier for you to find answered questions and help keep the forum clutter-free.

CDMA FM Raido SPRINT& VERIZON

According to advanced tech support at HTC, they were instructed to disable the hardware in the TP2 by SPRINT & VERIZON for their own reasons at the hardware level. AT&T, T-MOBILE, and all other USA GSM Providers requested the FM Radio be disabled at the ROM level. So, if the rom is altered then the FM Radio will work in the US. HTC Advanced Tech Support don't know what the US Carriers reasons are, but they build the phone for the specific carriersper their requested specs. Just like ALL US Carriers requested that the Front Camera be left out of both the HTC Touch Pro & HTC Touch Pro2.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mboguc:
Sometimes i am just curious if you guys cant read..

This thread is not to complain about FM Radio not working on our beloved CDMA TP2 so please be so kind and do not post unless you decide to help me with this!

which part of that you dont understand?

Can you help w dump of registry or not?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Gatecrasher R/T:
What part aren't YOU understanding? He IS trying to help you.

If HTC support is being accurate with this, the FM radio is disabled in HARDWARE. Like they purposely left a resistor out or didn't connect an antenna to the input on the Broadcom chip.

If this is true, then no amount of software analysis is going to fix this. Before you go tearing apart software and getting other people to do the same, you or somebody else should confirm that the HARDWARE is connected.

Before you go on about the specs on the Broadcom chip, I already know it supports FM radio. But if some pin on that chip is not connected to anything, and that pin requires a connection for FM to function, then you will not be able to fix this in software.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mboguc:
Just sended u pm.

Don't get me wrong. I appriciate all info. I did countless hours of research on that subject and i have read that already. Dump of Registry doesnt take more than 1 min. All i need is a .reg file to do some looking.. I am not asking anyone for anything else.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sak211l:
if no one can help you did you try downloading the official rom from shipped roms website if it helps here are links to the roms

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mboguc:
Thanks

I will look into it.

One of the reasons why i need reg dump is so i can compare reg files while FM radio is running in backgroud.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gamescan:
Chances are quite good that the radio program won't touch the registry while it is running.

As others have said, if you are serious about this, then the first step needs to be a board level analysis. Ignoring the most basic level is a waste of time for both you and anyone else that is interested in helping.

People are offering solid advice on how to best move forward. You would do best to listen to it, rather than repeatedly telling people to go away when they offer constructive help.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] highc:
The radio is turned off in the bootlader.

To get it enabled to let software work with it you must find out what comands to send to the FM radio hardware at bootup level.

All this is in the bootloader but I have no idea what to modify.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Rip the boot loader from a few TP2, GSM with, GSM without and CDMA models (sprint and vzw), find a program to compare and find out the differences are, I bet this would lead to the differences and a few trial/errors later, it might work...

I'm sure this is not even near as easy as it sounds but, it might be possable this way ????

How about in QPST ? There was so many options for every feature on my titan, wondering if this is a option in there (I have not taken my TP2 and tried it yet, even if I could).

This is something I really want to happen, I listen to sports radio all the time and not to have to bring a radio with me when I want to listen would be priceless. The hardware is there we just have to figure out how to turn it on.

Crossing my fingers that this goes somewhere....
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gd761:
To MBOGUC;

I was not complaining or venting. I was just fowarding info to you that I was given directly from HTC ADVANCED TECH SUPPORT. If you just thought that I was complaining, then why don't you contact Them yourself and see if they can assist you in such a way that you will be happy with. For all the other people who read the post for the percise info that was given to me from them, I hope that they are satisfyed. I hope that you can get a better answer from them that will solve the issue that you are so fustrated with. Have a nice day.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Bump...anyone doing anything with this ?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] naughty6t9:

is there any chance, hw abt ppl saying there is no FM RADIO hardware in CDMA model of tp2
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mangomango:
the radio is there though
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Lilak85:
Bump

Has anyone had any luck looking into the hardware/software for this?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dcmedic:
Look here for further info:

ht tp://pocketnow. com/software-1/touch-pro2-does-have-fm-radio
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Yep, saw that before, they are correct, The GSM version of the phone does have the radio. The CDMA version (Verizon/Sprint) is claimed to have the hardware but, it's software disabled.

Search all around, the same thing is said every where, and everyone who has a TP2 would like to have that feature as well.

I would use it all the time, even more now that it's baseball season and football is right around the corner...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ai6908:
I dont think CDMA radio is capable of receiving FM radio signal. FM radio works only with TP2 GSM radio.

Its not software level, its hardware that is not compatible.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] NeoMatrixJR:
Before someone stomps on this again. It's partially hardware compatible. The chipset is there. Something (either a missing resistor or other hardware component or some burred piece of software) is missing. Give the author what he's looking for and maybe he can at least confirm what is missing. That's all he's asking for.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] defaultdotxbe:
the OP seems to want to find an easy fix, but think about it, if it was a registry tweak or some piece of ROM-level software dont you think the CDMA chefs here and at PPCGeeks would have found it already? the OPs unwillingness to look at the more difficult possibilities such as it having been disabled via hardware or in the bootloader indicates to me hes not serious about

i dont think looking at the registry is a "different approach" as he says, someone probably looked at the registry the first day and found that wasnt it, thats why all the discussion since then has been about whether the hardware was compatible
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
I know it might not be a simple as a driver or reg setting too. Someone says it's at the bootloader. How is hardware enabled ? What can be done at our level to enable it ?

If it is in the bootloader, couldn't some take a look over the GSM and CDMA versions and compare ?

I wanted to bump this one, and will sub to it. There has to be a way to enable this feature or at least figure out what is needed to use it on a CDMA version of the phone.

Is the GSM hardware that much different ? I wouldn't be shocked if the front camera(there is one over seas, not for the US) is marked out on the system board on all versions, HTC would not make 5 versions of the phone, 1 version, some missing chips/hardware but, mostly disabled via software, it's just how to enable it.

After all the posts on the hardware being there, I would love to see some action here to try to get this done !!!!!!! Plz help !
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] bunvilla:
I owned a sprint diamond with fm radio enabled and i remember that it would not work unless u had the headphones plugged in( it acts as a antenna) . Is this the same for the TP2 gsm fm radio? the app wouldnt start unless u had the headphones plugged in. anyways i thought maybe this might be somewhere to look.

sorry if this was useless info:D
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Ok, is there anyone serious interested in trying to get to the bottom of this ???? I posted some of this over at PPCgeeks. I really want to open this subject back up to experts who want to look into it.

Facts that I have found out...

I opened a ticket with HTC and have been hitting them up with questions about this subject (CDMA Verizon Touch Pro 2 FM radio)

1. The CDMA Phone is the same exact phone as the GSM version accept for the cellular antenna.

Quote from HTC "The hardware in your device is identical to that of the GSM sister with the difference of the Cellular antenna. "

People even questioned it, so I asked again "As I previously mentioned, the hardware in your device is identical to that of the GSM sister with the difference of the Cellular antenna." (this was directly asking if there was any hardware difference that would cause the FM radio not to work or be degraded in performance)

2. The FM radio was disabled because CDMA carriers wanted it DISABLED, not because of a hardware related problem.

Quote from HTC "This feature was disabled on the device at the request of the carrier."

3. The FM tuner on CDMA versions are NOT disabled in a PRL or bootup command, they are disabled via Windows Mobile (not clear on at what point)

Quote from HTC "This is a modification to the Windows Mobile software. " and "The FM Radio is locked out of the Windows Mobile software on your device. "

4. HTC locked out the FM tuner on CDMA models, false (very interesting).

Quote from HTC "Verizon made the modification of removing the FM radio to Windows Mobile."

5. Do they know how to do it ? Yep...but, will they tell us...Nope...

Quote from HTC "Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how to enable the FM radio as it requires modifying the device outside of the normal function and specification set by the carrier."

Anyone know anywhere we can start looking ? It's part of Windows Moible that is disabling/blocking the FM tuner from working...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] naughty6t9:
thanx for the great info mate, i m sure sum great chef will make up with this.. jus want them to take it seriously n thank them in advance, will surly buy them a coffee :D, lol ... but seriously missing FM :(

hey i was wondering wat if v try to plug in properitry jack of headphone n try FM by installing tat cab, has ne1 tried tat way...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] defaultdotxbe:
im not sure i believe that its disabled just in windows mobile, if that were the case it should be enabled by default in any custom rom that isnt built directly off a sprint or verizon OEM rom
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Only thing I can think of.... Depending on what system files are used for each rom, there is core files for each rom. If for example, the kernal was recompiled for each different phone, those customizations would be there and not much we could do it about it....

There is a reason why we can't put a GSM rom on a CDMA model....Just no one is 100% sure why...(at least what I have seen/heard)accept that it will brick it.

Another thing to that might be possable here.... Android, I tried the newest version the other day, neat, slugish but, neat. If the loader actually shuts down Windows Mobile and opens Android, the hardware should be available.

If FM is enabled on Android GSM, taking that "app" over to the CDMA version should prove if this is correct or not.

Maybe ???
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] rocketmail.com:
i agree with you on that suggestions,

and as it has been confirmed that its not hardware issue,

what has come to my mind is that ,

`what makes a GSM ROM not work with CDMA and verse versa`?

maybe, maybe a look into that can bring some issue out.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Tripp-phpBB:
I've been following this thread so I will go ahead and throw my two cents in.

I think IT IS disabled at hardware level. Why? When I first got my TP2 several months back and read it has a possible FM radio I was very excited as is everyone else. Through a lot of searching here, at PPCGeeks and Google, I found a post of basically an eltronic engineer who took the phone apart and messed with it and found that a transistor or whatever it may be doesn't actually connect the FM chip to the speaker (or something close along those lines) He soldered the missing piece in and was able to pick up a few stations but even then wasn't worth a hell.

Not sure if anyone will believe me but I'll try to find the post and link it later today.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Please find a link, We need to some proof on this. There has been a lot of claims with this so with out proof, it will just be like ever one else.

Interesting though, everything else points the other way but, maybe
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] pelermon:
With WunderRadio and Slacker, I don't even know why its an issue.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
This is what I have been wondering myself...I can't find any real solid info on this for a TP2 at least

1. Because, not everywhere has cell towers or Wi-fi, or just Dead spots (dropping your interenet connection when your driving drops your music/talk radio)

2. Some stuff is NOT streamed over the interenet, like baseball or football games on your local sports radio stations (this is the big reason for me).

3. Local news, etc

4. Streaming radio for a chunk of the day will KILL your battery a lot faster than any FM radio would.

Not everything is all over the interenet, there is a lot of local stuff that I find to be more important sometimes than streaming content, FM covers that and... The biggest one...

The phone has the feature built in...the hardware is there, we should be able to use it...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] txrider:
It well could be. I had a GSM TP2 and...

1) radio would not work unless headphones were plugged in as the headphone cord -is- the FM antenna. It could be not connected to the internal phone speaker.

2) It didn't pick up stations worth a darn.. I was able to hear a couple but reception was pretty pathetic.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
I know the headphone thing but, as for stations, I heard it worked pretty well accept the software was buggy. I guess it all depends on how strong the FM signals are in your area.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] txrider:
Well I do have a dead GSM phone, or rather one with a non working display (fell off the top of my SUV onto the road) I could take apart and look at...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Do you have a CDMA version (or detailed pictures of one) to compare it to ? If your looking to find the differences, I only have one, my main phone, no offence, I don't want to pull it apart and void the warranty on it.

All the info that I have found points to not hardware but, software (start up commands) but, of course I could be wrong...

Hey, I hit 200 posts...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] JDog2pt0:
I'd like to see if maybe I can push this further. My father got the TP2 from Verizon (so it's obviously CDMA) but he also got it with a GSM SIM card in it (I'm not sure if they all do this) and the phone came stock with a FM Radio app (I don't know if the CDMA's do or not). The app would launch and ask for headphones (he never plugged any in so I don't know if that's the message the CDMA phone gets or not). I now have possession of the phone and was, at the time, unaware of the radio issue. I have since then flashed my own custom rom; I'm thinking about installing the application (if I can) and seeing if it works. Any thoughts?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Install it to see if it works. If you have a Verizon phone, it should have the headphone jack.

Install the software, reboot phone, plug in headphones (so you see the icon on the top bar) and run the software, if you can tune channels or hear audio, your good. If you can not tune channels or hear any audio, your like the rest of us Verizon/sprint users.

If you can hear audio or tune channels and it's a Vzw phone, we need some proof, then maybe a dump is in order.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] JDog2pt0:
Can tune, no audio. I'm assuming I'm in the same boat as everyone else.

Found this from another radio thread, would be nice if he continued his work.

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=1650673&postcount=249
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
You can tune in stations ? (in a seach it locks on a channel ?), it's better than I have gotten.

Yea, I know that thread very well, I do also wish he continued his work, I think this is our brickwall with this FM radio. It seems... he holds the key.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] JDog2pt0:
Ah...I just thought you meant cycle through the station. No, no locks.

Has anyone tried contacting him?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
Yep and he has not been on in a little while...

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/member.php?u=57361
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] diamondfuel:
Someone should give him a ring! I would surely like to have radio as well
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] JDog2pt0:
We've tried, he doesn't seem interested in responding.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Miami_Son:
That's because it is not accessing the radio hardware. The program will run on any TP2/Tilt 2 and cycle through the frequencies, but without actually accessing the hardware that's all it will do.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] NeoMatrixJR:
I'm going to try and check with some of the folks working on Android development. It will probably be a long time before they can get anything on this since FM's on the BT chip and the android port doesn't have BT working yet. But once they get that maybe they can find the inits to get FM working on a GSM phone and we can check that against a CDMA. It's a long shot to be sure....
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sh4d0w86:
i was searching through my oemdrivers folder.

from my at&t 2.10 rom.

noticed two fm radio related files.

fmradiosdk.dll and fmsdkwrapper.dll

both application extensions.

might be worth a look..?

let me know if you need me to upload.

best of luck.
