Does anyone know how to delete an e-mail account that is displayed but doesn't really exist...I'll explain...I have a gmail account that worked fine and one day it just stopped getting e-mails (to the phone). When I went to delete it off my phone it basically told me I have no e-mail account yet when I go to the email tab I can see it. When I try to click inbox it just brings me to the accounts screen, and it does NOT display it. So I had to set up another link on my phone to my gmail account. Now it displays two accounts, one that I can't access and can't delete, and another perfectly working one. Is there anyway I can get rid of it?

I ran the Unread Fix count script and it goes through BOTH email accounts yet my phone doesn't seem to think there is two, it just decides to display two.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Seattle Rat:
This happened to me as well... If I remember correctly what I did to get rid of the ghost account was to create a temporary email account that was not gmail (i just gave fake credentials)... then I reset my device, deleted both gmail accounts, then reset phone again, deleted fake account and finally added credentials for the gmail account that had been giviing me probs. Not sure how important resetting device is, I suspect that the key was adding a non-gmail account. I hope this helps and sorry if my explanation isnt clear... I am still waking up! Good luck.

the yahoo settings are not included in android for one reason or another.

i know theres an app for yahoo mail but its not the greatest one, and its not embedded in the system messages.

i found a setup instructions somewhere on the internetz but this is the 5th time i change the android build and im sure many people has as well.

is it possible to include the working settings for yahoo mail in the future builds or update the current ones with yahoo settings.

this is a request for android builds, its related to android development...

Yahoo mail works fine...the only snag is the free account (that I'm guessing you've got) doesn't support POP3...you need to upgrade to a Yahoo plus account ($19.99 yr) to enable it to work properly...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
well there are settings online that i have to enter from pop 3 to IMAP.

but it would be cool to have them already built in
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chromiumleaf:
I figured I'd start this thread as a place where we can all post and share our custom splash screen images.

The splash image is what you see as soon as you power on your phone (the standard one is solid black with "htc" in white/silver).

Thanks to tehdarkknight for showing us how to add a custom splash screen at bootup.

See his post here to learn how to do this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765429

He also has the tool needed to convert the image to .rgb565 in that post.

Image sizes are 320w x 480h.

The OPTIMAL image format is 72 PPI, and saving it as a .PNG. JPGs work too but not always as well.

You'll have to zip your .rgb565 files to attach them to your post, and then if possible please also attach some kind of preview thumbnail (.png, .gif, .jpg) so we can actually see a preview of the image. Follow my first post as an example.

Here are a few I've already made. I'll add many more so keep checking back. And others feel free to take a post and add your own stuff too. (You can only attach 8 files to one single post, so feel free to take multiple posts if you have lots of images to share.)

No bashing each other's work -- let's keep it open for any type of creativity out there.

Enjoy!

WARNING!!! DO NOT FLASH THESE .ZIPS TO YOUR PHONE! THESE ARE NOT FLASHABLE ZIPS!!! They are just the compressed .rgb565 graphics that you will need to unpack on your computer.

Mods -- could we soon consider making this a sticky perhaps?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chromiumleaf:
A few more

Here's a few more.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chromiumleaf:
And more w/ "htc" text

Added "htc" text in these.

EDIT: This birds one came out kinda grainy. I'll come back and fix it later.

Man that EXP one is tight as hell.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] wtphoto:
Ok so ill ask this one in here, I made one really quick from a wallpaper I made awhile back and I mean this it a high Res image. Its 320x480 and its 300ppi but after using the tool to create the. Rgb565 file it looks like crap like I took an image and streched it too far. Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chromiumleaf:
Try reducing the original down just to typical screen resolution of 72ppi maybe? Perhaps that tool doesn't like super high-res graphics. Maybe that's what happened to my "htc birds" one a couple posts up, too.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] wtphoto:
I tried that as well because that's what I thought. Maybe tonight when I get back to the hotel ill make it again from scratch to see if that helps. Btw what program are. You using?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chromiumleaf:
All my stuff was done in Photoshop and saved as a JPEG.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] wtphoto:
thats what I did to and yes the effect that you got with the birds is the same thing that I am getting.

Edit: ok so I tried saving the image out of CS5 as different formats and found that jpg was the problem its probably something with the compression that jpg has but if you save it as png its perfect.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] MrJustAGuy:
After going to the trouble of rooting, flashing Cyanogen, and flashing SPL, I should put on a splash screen that's flashy and unique, but for some reason I just felt compelled to put this back on after the 2.1 RUU killed it. (Though I think my version is actually slightly nicer than the one it came with.)

Since there are only a few hundred of us pre-release employee customers, and only a small percentage of that group are going to bother with this type of thing, I suspect there are probably no more than five people on earth who would want this.

But I might as well share.

I've been using gimp to create them but have had no luck flashing them! :mad:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rejectedkid:
Did you use darch eng spl or unrevoked forever. The way I flash them is by packaging up into a hercimg.zip and flashing it unsigned. I also rename the .rg565 (or whatever) to .NB0. For the hercimg to work you must have an android.txt file in it.

Sent from my S-Off fully customized Super Hero
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] zachslavin:
Yeah I've tried both, with unrevoked it doesn't do a thing. I wonder if the wrong android-info.txt would do that? As far as darch's eng spl I am able to 'fastboot devices' and get back a serial but when I fastboot flash splash1 splash.rg565 I get sending...300k...FAILED (remote not allow). I've also tried it in both OSX, Ubuntu, and Windows 7.

I use photoshop CS5 to make them and then save them as .png before converting. then using Darch and Toasts eng spl I boot into fastboot and

On these two, the original background art is not mine -- these are made from wallpapers done by SxiDevil (blue wave one) and Keur2Lion (cool machine one), both found on Zedge.com. I did add the HTC logo and some other cool Photoshop effects though. Enjoy!

See the thing is I make it the right size but. It always. Gets. Distorted ..... I'm using gimp. Any tips
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chromiumleaf:
Make sure the image is 72ppi, not anything higher or lower. Also, we've found the best format to save the original image is a PNG. I will add this to my OP.

tehdarkknight removed GIMP instructions from his OP (the how to flash splash images guide), I think because he was also running into problems with GIMP. I don't use it so I can't help, but make sure your image is in the format above.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] D4RKJ3D1:
how do you animate one like the current CM6 splash?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tomatosoup:
You're thinking of a boot animation, these images replace the green HTC logo on the white background before the boot animation
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] HeroMeng:
You can't animate a splash screen, you can only animate a boot screen.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
Wrong screen. :) No splash screen can be animated, only boot screens can.

Thanks,

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] randalldeflagg:
you dont flash this from recovery. you need to flash darch spl first to do a s-off the hboot loader. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765237&highlight=darch+spl download and flash the file from recovery. then follow the instructions from the first post.

download the splash image you want. unzip. should end in a extension of rgb565. save it some where on your computer. I created a folder in the same location I have adb.

so in my case it my structure is as follow

d:\droid\tools\splash

so when I want to replace the splash image I do the following:

plug the phone in

open up a command window console whatever

d:

cd\droid\tools

adb reboot fastboot

fastboot flash splash1 d:\droid\tools\splash\splash.rgb565

you will then get the successful flash message

fastboot reboot

TADA! enjoy

Holy crap that's awesome! I'm so gonna use that lol

Nice, I wanted 1 of those images. Just so everyone knows, every iPhone wallpaper is 340x480. I actually grabbed several and they look great. It's also pretty easy to make those into 640x480 images into non-scrollable wallpapers. (I use irfanview and create a solid black 640x480 jpg, then paste the 320x480 on as top layer and it centers it by itself.) I'll post up a few for the splash though when I get home. And I didn't point out iPhone for any other reason than Googling 320x480 wallpaper gives nothing but sites providing "iPhone" wallpaper.

anyways..here's a few i like. i take no credit for them, and my picture editing skills are pretty limited so i've just been using them as is.
