Anyone have any further info on this? I would really like a startup sound again.
[Droid 2 General] Archangel:
Ok if the boot animation is on the system media file like the D1 why cant we just take a boot animation and delete it out of the system media and replace it with a new one? Do you have to ADB push it?
[Droid 2 General] theecho:
The boot animation is kept in the system/media folder. If you can replace this by another means, it will work. I chose to use adb push as I was already in my command line due to an application i was writing.

help

hey guys, sorry for the noob question, but what r u guys using to zip your finnished product? (not a flashable zip) just the zip u can push or use root expor to just place in correct spot. i know you cant use anycompression, but ive tryed everything and i must be doing something wrong. to make sure my zip methods are not adding any compression, i pulled my orig bootanimation, which zipped is 6114kb, i unzipped, then rezipped, and i keep getting dif sized zip files.. if done right it should be the exact same size right?

using the following this is what i get

ok oring is 6114kb, heres what the others do, 7zip 6124kb(bigger) PC zip client 6086kb and winrar is the closest at 6119kb

any advice would be greatly apr
[Droid 2 General] silverfang77:
Does doing ADB push require you to plug the phone into the computer in PC mode?

Also, can you change boot animations on stock ROM, or only on custom ROM?

I downloaded a bootanimation.zip file that's 480x854 pixels, the same as the D2's screen. I also looked at the default bootanimation.zip file, which is 480x480. Does the resolution matter at all, or can the phone display it either way?

Since this is bumped anyway, for whatever reason sounds will not work on boot with the default Rom. MIUI and other Roms are necessary for this mod.

It seems that when I try to connect my n1 to my CPU, my CPU can not recognize my n1 SD card while its in USB mode.

I am currently running window 7 32b. I thought it was my windows that was faulty so reformat my CPU with fresh copy of windows. However that was not the case. So I tried my other computer running windows XP and it picks up the SD card instantly. So I tried a new SD card in my N1 tried it again. Didn't work. I am confused. Everytime I need to transfer files from my CPU to my n1 I have to pull out the SD card. Its strange. All the drives were installed correctly but it will not detect. Other CPU will detect. Is anyone having this issue with windows 7 on your computer. I wan to fix this. Its really getting annoying. Please if you guys have any ideas let me know. I even called HTC and they figured out its my CPU not the phone. And I agree. It works on other windows but not my windows 7.

Try another PC. My Home PC that I built used to recognize it... then stopped... then wouldn't for weeks... and just the other day I noticed it found it (after a minute).

Today on my netbook (EeePC 1000HE) it gave me fits a few times before coming up.

Nothing really changed on my Home PC really and USB sticks would read just fine, but not my N1. I know I reset the thing many times without success so finding it working was surprising.

One thing I use are my existing mini-usb cables and I picked up these little mini-micro usb converters. Perhaps those are flaky?

Being so new at this - only a month with a rooted hero - I didn't think to change my folder permissions on the phone level - so I went into Root Explorer and changed it to R/W - and it gets further than I had before - but no file transfer takes place

This is what I'm typing into cmd

adb push c:\bootanimation.zip \system\media

then I get: 950kb/s - (0 byes in ###s)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Big-O-Devil:
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Big-O-Devil:
Go to you c :/ drive then into your sdk folder then into your tools folder and put it in there...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Vandelay007:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Vandelay007:
no such file

I attached an image -
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Big-O-Devil:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] helfrez:
How do we get from point A to B with all of our other devices. My Telechip 8902 tablet can play unaltered 624x352 standard xvid files without a hiccup, right from the Gallery. Obviously they are including a codec or something somewhere that gets this working. Where do we start to extracting that info and cooking it into ROMs. The latest crop of players like Rock Player are ok, but even RockPlayer plays WORSE than the native gallery on my tablet. Even thumbnails work....

Maybe I am just being naive, but what's missing that we can't extract. My tablet is running 2.1 and it works perfect. For giggles I tossed in some mkv samples with aac and mp3 and they worked as well.

[XPERIA X10 General] Aarstad:
Hey guys, tried searching, but didn't get me anywhere.

So I rooted my xperia x10i with the universal android root 1.6.2 beta 5 (i think), it worked well.

Then I downloaded titanium backup and uninstalled an app there (not system file, it was shapewriter app).

After that, I tried out the denser LCD Brightness density 3.0 app, I set it to 200 (current was 240), it asked for a soft reset, I agreed.. But when it came back on, nightmare occured.

The Sony Ericsson logo shows, after about 15 seconds it instantly pops into this black image of my xperia x10 and a warning sign. Won't do anything after that. I tried repairing it in SE PC companion, but everytime it tells me to hold back while shoving in the usb plug, it won't download a repair file it wants. Tells me I don't have a working internet connection, even though I am writing this as we speak.

Is my phone bricked?

Thanks for all help.
[XPERIA X10 General] mmk92:
first of all, it is an LCD density changer(resolution) not an LCD brightness changer, i had ur exact same problem as i used that application without having busybox and su installed, and got the yellow exclamation of death after the reboot

go to the newbie rooting guide in the android development forum and do the 5th step(u need to start from the begining of u dont have the files needed), then after u finish it, ur x10 should boot generic 16, just use pc companion or SEUS to update to os 26
[XPERIA X10 General] gavriel18:
You can also use the flash unbrick tool in the decrypted rom thread. With a bit of tinkering u can flash straight to 026.

Btw don't worry if that pops up. It means u messed something up but its repairable. I have done that to my x10 so many times I created a custom image when it happens so I can at least have a laugh before I reflash.
[XPERIA X10 General] Aarstad:
My bad! What a nice way to show everyone I'm a total moron the first day at school. :)

I'll try the first advice with all those steps first, here's hoping I'll learn some more when rooting the proper way instead of just clicking a button on an app!

but when i record video in whatever format, it stills says 30FPS or 29FPS.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] richardbroder:
Hello there.

I just recently purchased the beautifull widgets app and I´m getting this strange problem. Somehow the temperature status got "locked" to 24C and it always displays "Sunny" - although it´s night and 20c, and the weather skin is correctly displaying a moon.

What´s funny, when I enter the accuweather site and look up for my city (Curitiba - Paraná, Brazil) the website shows the CORRECT temperature (adound 20c) and status (clear). So it´s not accuweather´s stats problem, somehow the app got stuck in that status/temperature and will NOT update it, even though the icon is correctly updated.

Checklist

-Yes, I do use "Accuweather" as my weather service

-Yes, I do have the latest 3.13 version

-Yes, I did try refreshing the program in every way imaginable, in fact, just for test, I changed my location to a neighbour city (less then 30km from here) and it displays the correct message (clear instead of sunny) and the correct temperature (20c and dropping as of now)

-For testing sake, I tried lots of diferent cities and all of them displayed correctly in the widget, only my city, for some reason, is wrong, it´s just as if the app has locked the stats and temp on my city for some reason, maybe something went wrong?

-Yes, I did restart the phone

-Yes, I did reinstall the app, no success

The last thing I could do is to reflash my phone, although I really do not feel like doing that for such a small thing. Beautifull widgets is awesome but having such a serious problem is really sad.

If someone has this program installed I would kindly ask to try setting up "Curitiba" (it´s in Paraná, Brazil, although if you just type in "Curitiba" you will get the correct result) as the location, to know if it will also display the "locked" Sunny - 24c stats, or if it will display the correct status, then I will know if the problem is with my specific device or if, somehow, magically, my city is displaying the wrong stats.

Thanks for the atention

[Epic 4G General] Roisen:
I'm trying to use my new Epic to test an application I made a while ago but I can't seem to get Eclipse or the Android Eclipse plugin to recognize my phone.

The android documentation says that I need to install the USB driver package from the list of available packages in the SDK and AVD manager, but there is no USB driver package. In addition, I am unable to even mount my EPic to my computer to do simple file transfers, regardless of whether I use the drivers that Windows downloads from Windows Update or if I use the official driver package from Samsung.com. Although I will get a drive to show up when I plug my phone in, it will be a light grey and attempting to access it leads to it timing out after a few minutes.

I've attempted this on 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Windows 7, and I do have USB debugging enabled. I'm probably missing something since this is my first Android phone, but I sure can't figure it out and I consider myself pretty proficient with this type of stuff
[Epic 4G General] Aridon:
Try one of the USB ports on the back of the CPU that are directly connected to the MB. Stupid? I thought so too until it worked for me.

Also make sure you are using the compatible version of Eclipse IDE and that you went through the steps in there to install the SDK plugin properly.

The plugin doesn't work with the newest versions of Eclipse properly. That said if you cant' mount your SD then your computer isn't recognizing it. The EPIC specific drivers were posted yesterday if you aren't using them do so and try the different USB port.
[Epic 4G General] Roisen:
I originally tried the front USB ports, and then tried the rear ports and got the same results. I am confident that Eclipse and the SDK plugin are playing nice together because I used them extensively in developing the application a couple of months ago, including using a virtual android device for testing.

The Drivers that I downloaded from Samsung were specific to the Epic and were last revised today, so they are the most recent.
