Sound For R2D2

I made a wav file to be added to system/etc

Its a warp/r2d2 sound effects that plays with the r2d2 bootanimation

Rename it to PowerOn.wav

Place it in system/etc

Reboot

Enjoy :D
[Vibrant Android Development] mikey98277:
Yes I should have been a little more clear, yes there is an application that allows you to preview on the computer, What I meant to say is that it does not have previews on the page itself, you have to download it to see, and use the preview program
[Vibrant Android Development] ipeench:
thank you.
[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I got the bootanimation and sound working but I'd like to change the shutdown animation/sound. Does anybody know a> which directory to place the shutdown animation and what to rename the animation, b> which directory to place the shutdown sound sound and what to rename the sound?

Thanks everyone!

Boot sound not working?

Hmmm... last night I flashed Macnut R12 with the new B-stock kernel, and changed the boot animation and sound successfully. Today I Odined back to stock Froyo, then tried Obsidian 5 beta with Eugene's B-stock kernel (the kernel which supports bootanimation.zip), was able to switch boot animation, but the poweron.wav sounds do not work, I've tried several wav files. Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this and how to resolve it?
[Vibrant Android Development] DAKIDD236:
Nice addition to the r2d2 animation
[Vibrant Android Development] DAKIDD236:
It has to be PowerOn.wav with an uppercase P and O
[Vibrant Android Development] mikey98277:
Do you know what a power off sound would have to be named and put, I have a .wav file I found that I want to add to the peing on the apple shutdown.
[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
It must have something to do with the rom b/c its named correctly and its the same exact one I copied that worked with R12. I'm switching back to Macnut R12... Thanks for your response...

[Vibrant Android Development] cfvasquez:
I have vibrant with mancut 12 and b_stock_kernel and I have downloaded the bootanimation.zip of many types and none of them engage. It boots to the android stock bootanimation but not the one I have downloaded. The file is placed in the /system/media where the battery animation files are and the video and audio folders are that contain the ringtones and alerts and the shutdown files. Btw the /data/local is write protected i cannot save files to it so I was not able to drop the bootanimation there either.
[Vibrant Android Development] adamcooks:
You need to push the mount r/w button, if you're using root explorer
[Vibrant Android Development] cfvasquez:
Thanks But it didn't activate the boot animation. I now have a bootanimation.zip in the system/media and data/local and neither change the bootanimation what else can I try?

Hello,

Can anyone put the R2D2 boot animation as direct download here? I've tried the PowerON.zip but it's not extracting.

I found that just copy/paste using astro didn't work. You have to use root explorer or use adb.
[Vibrant Android Development] ipeench:
Trying to make my own bootanimation. I have made all the files and named them all trio_00xx (xx refers to number of the image..obviously )

and put the non looping images in part0 folder and the ones I want to loop in part1 folder.

I'm getting confused with the desx.txt I guess? At 1st I was just copying it over from other bootanimation.zips i had downloaded but I guess that will not work seeing as I'm only getting a black screen when I start my phone.

what am I doing wrong?

I know it works because if I use one I downloaded it works fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] d_bot:
For example, with the R2D2 boot:

480 854 15

p 1 0 part0

p 0 10 part1

'480' is the width of the animation (where 480 is the width of your png files.)

'854' is the height of the animation (where 854 is the height of your png files.)

'15' is the desired fps of the animation

'p' defines an animation part

'1' how many times this animation part loops

'0' defines a pause (max 10)

'part0' is the folder name where the animation images are

'p' defines another animation part

'0' defines that it loops forever (until android starts)

'10' defines a pause

'part1' is the folder for the second animation part.

's' (not in the example above)defines a sound desired for that part, sounds will be loaded from /data/local. So what you could have is:

p 0 10 part1

s sound_file.ogg

One thing that will get you is the zip file, make sure you are not compressing the zip.

you want to create a non-compressed archive.

Good Luck
[Vibrant Android Development] ipeench:
Are the pauses what is causing it to be on such a delay? my poweron.wav starts and finished before the images even start playing.
[Vibrant Android Development] d_bot:
my guess is no, my first guess would be you are creating a compressed zip file.

if you are using 7zip, set your compression level to "store".
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
I'm obviously retarded here, but I can't get the file to move. I keep getting an error weather through androzip or supermanager. Both tell me I am unable to move either file. can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Feel free to flame me up for being dumb. "could not move due to system restrictions" is what androzip tells me.
[Vibrant Android Development] d_bot:
anything ins /system is read only, so you will need to "adb push" it, or use a file manager that can mount it as read/write, or authenticate as root. I would suggest RootExplorer.
[Vibrant Android Development] Tonicacid:

I wanna set the language to spanish but i just cant, I've tried with this apks "custome locale" and "more locale" but they dont do the trick,I've tried flashing but it seems the bootloader this phone came with doesnt allow rooting or flashing custom rooms, can you guys be cool and give a bro a hand? Im starting to freakout

Thanks in advance

There should be a few custom ROMs with what you need, take a look in the Dev section. As for rooting, use BTDAGs guide linked in my signature.

If you want something looking the same but in Spanish, try out the stock rom from HTC, or maybe better the Modaco Custom Rom r5. They both work great.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
Good evening gentlemen.

The Galaxy S and all its variants have an unlock tool, working on a simple method of fetching the code from one of the files on the phone.

I have also seen that some folks who couldn't quite get the easy method to work would actually change some things in their nv_data.bin, which also allowed them to unlock their phones.

I was hoping that some kindly dev, with far too much time on his hands, would figure out a way to unlock the Galaxy Tab in the same way (seeing as both machiens are so similar).

I will help out with whatever I can - files, adb commands, logs, etc - because I want to give my Tab as a gift to a friend, but the damn thing is locked up tight to Vodafone ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cocoe68:
Galaxy TAB unlock

I tested variant unlock process from Samsung Galaxy S by generating unlock code but didn't work. Process is based on sgux.exe tool that extract code from nv_data.bin file.

I am waiting for an alternate method to get unlock code for this exciting device.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xexes:
there is a person at android.modaco.com who will get the unlock code for your device if you send him the IMEi no. (he tells you how) and your carrier and location... for a fee... 19 UK... fyi

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] clausnymark:
This unlock method works!

Thanks smithdc and helroz! This method worked great for me on portuguese GT! And it's really easy too...

Especially smithdc's guide is very easy to follow!

One thing though: don't bother to buy Root Explorer just to move/copy/delete files. A little linux command line knowledge (easy things like "cd, cp, rm" or even "mkdir" - google it if U don't know what I'm talking about) will do the trick using terminal emulator (check out at market). Also I'm using an amazing little proggie called WiFiKeyboard (market again) to use my keyboard to write out the commands on the GT!

If U want your GT rooted and unlocked this is the way to go! Thanks to all the people who have worked on this!! Cheers!:)

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] smithdc:
Yes, I does change the serial numbers to all zeroes.

You could probably just roll back your nv_data.bin file/you have the serial on the back of your Tab and there should be a way to just edit it back in, in the future.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TainT:
And the drawbacks to having all zaros for a temporary serial # would be??

I get the warranty issues but I just wanna make sure im not missing something
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] smithdc:
Well none so far, or that I can think of.

Even with warranty you could just restore the original files. Or if you had broken it so badly that they couldn't load it up then it wouldn't matter anyway.

[General Questions and Answers] guppie11:
Hi,

I am thinking about installing :

- Leo_Radio_15.40.50.07U_2.12.50.02_2

- Mdeejay_eVo_Sense_v._1.6_REVOlution_Final

That i downloaded from a friend of mine.

But when i just got a quick question.

At Hspl it says :

1) To install this HSPL there must be any SPL version from this list on your device:

SPL 1.42.0000

SPL 1.62.0000

SPL 1.66.0000

SPL 2.07.0000

SPL 2.08.0000

SPL 2.10.0000

Otherwise the installation will fail!

You can select which SPL version to install in "Choose SPL" screen. To check your SPL version, hold the Volume Down button and do a reset.

It is possible to downgrade to this SPL, by just flashing to an Official ROM with this SPL version.

But i got version :

Rom version : 1.66.404.1 (76641) NLD

So can i install it then or not?

I have never updated the phone .(just got it about 2 months)

Please help me.

Ty,

Thomas

Anybody having problems with the licence of the Orange apps on their WP7 phones on Orange?

Whenever I try and run an app such as Orange Maps it says "Orange licence is invalid" and then uninstalls...

Tried calling orange today and was told Orange Maps is not supported on the Mozart... go figure. Can't install Google Maps either so guess the phone is going back tomorrow....

Unless anybody has suggestions?
[7 Mozart General] chex13:

It's not just the maps but all the Orange applications. While I suppose they're not mission critical - the Orange Sat Nav would be nice since I can't install TomTom....

And no Google Maps or Google Goggles unfortunately...
[7 Mozart General] Omega Point:
Orange Maps isn't working yet anyway. It just says coming soon when you launch it, with the option to view screenshots.

You could try hard resetting the phone to try and sort out the license problems.
[7 Mozart General] breakbystealth:
got it sorted

fixed mine with a factory reset. called orange first and they told me to do this but could not give me a straight answer that a reset could fix the problem. they have also now compansated me for taking a week to come back and tell me they also sold me orange maps when it is not yet ready for use with wp7. from what they told me it will not work on any wp7 device from them but they are working on it. so if you have taken this service out ask for some compansation as they have sold it knowing the service will not work. hope this helps guys.:eek:

[Epic 4G General] y2bangali:
Okay let first start off by saying I have commitment issues. Lol. I rooted my Epic yesterday, i"m pretty sure it is a permanent root. After rooting I did a full wipe of data/factory and cache.

Now I didn't know which rom to install. Bakedsnack or epicexperience. My preferences are better battery life and best looking launchers/themes after first boot without installing any other kernels since I'm a noob. So idk which Rom fits my preferences more (some help with please?)

However, I installed bakedsnack, used it for a few mins and went back to recovery to install epicexperince (I did not wipe data/factory again). After I installed it I rebooted the phone but all i get is a blank screen after the sprint 4g logo. I could hear some notifications like when I connect my charger it makes that sound. SO the phone is on but screen is blank/black. I did get a bit tense so I went back to recovery and again I didn't wipe anything but I just reinstalled Bakedsnack.

Now for the commitment issues, I was using bakedsnack without a default launcher for 3 hours. Didn't know which one to choose (touchwiz, awd or launcherpro). After 3 struggling hours i ended up with launcher pro(and now I found out about the app called home switcher -_-).

So idk if its a problem for me installing a rom 3 times. Did my epicexperience get automatically uninstalled? or is it still in the system?

Another question, when I go to settings>about phone, for my firmware version it says Baked-snack-1.2, and the kernel version says 2.6.29. Is the kernel supposed to say that or is it supposed to show that a custom kernel is installed?

(i think bakedsnack has a custom kernel).

Now can anyone pleaseeee help me about choosing a rom. Hopefully epicexperience will work if I do a clean wipe which I didn't try yet. But i'm open to any advices, suggestions. Can anyone with experience tell me which rom is all around better for battery life, looks.themes/launchers/widgets, performance?

One last question (sorryyy!!!), I leave juicedefender running 24/7 so my data/3g could be disabled whenever the phone is idle. Logically, I think this saves battery, but i've read here and there that literally bakedsnack rom saves more battery without juicedefender running. Is this true? if yes, then how?

I am sorry for such a huge post but I am confused lol.. Thank you very much for bearing with me. I appreciate it a lot and will appreciate any help. Once again Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] skelit0r:
Wrong section, but ill take a stab at these.

When your asking the question about performance and battery life between backedsnack and epicexperience. You really can't compare. The battery/performance driving engine aka kernal is not included in epic experience. You find and flash your own. However the EE (epic experience) rom has quite a few tweaks to it. Including the new reboot from system menu. Backedsnack I can't say forsure about it. I ran 1.3 but seemed buggy to me. And switched back to epic. And for you battery question. Overclocked kerrnals save battery ushually by undervolting the cpu and setting the govener to save you battery. Therefore any program that would run in your backround 24/7 is just going to eat battery. Even if it says it saves battery, it still has to run to do so. And that's just my 2 cents. Next time please post in a different section(:
[Epic 4G General] y2bangali:
ahh sorry for posting here.. just very new to these.. i think bakedsnack already has the cpu undervolted, but how can I do it and set the govener manually just to be sure?

thx a lot for your reply.. increasing my knowledge base.. can you please be a bit more specific to how epicexperience has more tweaks to it? and does it look better than bakedsnack? i'm loving the bakedsnack notification pull down window..
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Alright, well since your new to all of this I wont get into technical detail to confuse you.

But, now that you have flashed Baked Snack, you are running Baked Snacks kernel as well as the ROM. What I suggest you do is go to recovery and than wipe data/cache/dalvik cache (Located in Advanced). And than flash Epic Experience, than reboot. After it boots up, you will be running Epic Experience with Baked Snack kernel because Epic Experience doesn't have its own Custom Kernel so it keeps the kernel you have on the system already.

Now, Epic Experiences theme is nothing like BakedSnacks, and your probably nto going to like EE's theme if you like BakedSnacks, so what you should do is go to the Themes And Apps part of this forum and go to Baked Snack Theme. Download that and put it on your SD card, go into recovery and flash it just like you flash ROM's and Kernels.

Now you will be running Epic Experience ROM, Baked Snacks Kernel, and Baked Snacks theme. Thats your best bet because Epic Experience has a great rep around here because its constant updates.

Theres my two cents. :)

Also, check out the Emotionless Beast theme in the themes and apps section, Mysteryemotionz combined Baked Snacks theme and Androdena Theme together, it looks awesome. :)
[Epic 4G General] y2bangali:
whoaa I didn't know that was possible. So it keeps my bakedsnack kernel which already has the cpu undervolted? how can I know for sure one I install EE? gonna give it a shot now. THANKSSSS a lot man.
