That response was to my question in the Cog thread. This has always worked for me in the previous versions of the Cog ROMs but not Beta 9. I'm not sure if he is aware of the change to the start up sound and I'm not sure if he's too concerned about it. I am however, so I'd love to know what you come up with. :D

I'm just glad I'm not the only one experiencing this.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] newter55:
Loving your work!!...I use absolute system from the market to manage and install them (the dev even modded the app to allow choosing to install them system/media so it works perfectly with cog now) as well as the loads of them he has there. I change my bootanimation more often then my underwear now..;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jslee1020:
I have an idea for a simple bootani...

Could you make one that says android.. but like this:

A

N

D

R

O

I

D

and just have the letters rotate once in order?

Maybe add some reflection and stuff? Don't know if it's do-able or not.. just throwing it out there! :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cmbrougham:
Yeah, might be able to cook up something like that. I want to make some more generic/simple ones for folks that aren't necessarily feeling antagonistic :D I've got a couple ideas that I'm thinking about that will involve some 3D, and this might be one of those. I'll add it to the list--thanks for the suggestion!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mralex23xx:
using this method...

Moderator zelendel offered this alternative installation method (thanks for posting!):

Download Zip

Rename zip so its name is bootanimation.zip

Put zip on SD card

Using Root Explorer, copy zip to /system/media/

Reboot

Watch and lol

Do I need to delete the orignal bootanimation that is there?:confused:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] biggem001:
cognition disables startup sound, so thats why you don't hear anything.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] zelendel:
It should ask you to overwrite the one that is there. Click yes
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mralex23xx:
will this work if im using super manager?

A cool idea maybe the original Xbox load screen but with the android robot at the end instead of the Xbox logo. Just a thought

LOL love the new animations! Especially the "infomercial" ... it slices, it dices,...- but will the text be slowed down at the end so I can read it when I load it on my phone?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cmbrougham:
Thank you ;)

Yes, the end text will hold at the end--it's sort of the limitation of animated GIFs. Also, in general, the animations tend to run a bit slower when they're on the phone--even if the frame rate is cranked up in the desc.txt file. If fact, I've had to artificially ramp up the frame rate over what these were originally animated at just to make them play back a little more smoothly. It's not entirely scientific, and takes a little going back and forth between the desktop and the phone to get the animations to look decent. They'll usually play smoothly at the beginning, but toward the end, sometimes they get choppy--there is obviously other stuff that is loading underneath and starts stealing processor cycles.

Fun stuff... :)

Anyway, thanks for trying them out. And sorry it's taking longer to get more posted--been busy with the real job, unfortunately :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] avgjoegeek:
No worries - keep em' coming when you have the chance - these are awesome.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] zelendel:
No worries man we all know this is a hobby and like all hobbies, life sometimes takes away from the time to do said hobbies. Your animations are well worth the wait
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dirtyballoonot:
I've asked this in Cog's thread, and no disrespect, as some of these animations are nice, but, I'd REALLY prefer the stock boot animation and sound. The Galaxy-S animation.

Do you have that file?

[Captivate Themes and Apps] chipsa964:
Yup, works great. I'm just waiting for the new ones...

Can I use boot animations from anywhere or do they have to be specifically made for captivate?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 10tonhammr:
You can use just about any bootanimation.zip file. I have found ones from Moto Droid/Nexus One forums that worked perfectly. Every one I have tried to far has worked.

This site has some sick ones. Decepticon/matrix red are sweet.

anyone know if these work on darky's rom? i know it says that it should work on most roms just want to make sure before i go changing things
[Captivate Themes and Apps] norcal einstein:
Hope you don't mind, I slightly modified a few boot animations for use on my phone and I figured I should share them.

This is a modified "ANDROID VS. APPLE | IT SLICES. IT DICES. | BLACK". I've removed the "It slices. It Dices. It makes iPhone look like a Speak'n'Spell" text.

Download the attached filed "applecut_bootanimation.zip"

This is a modified "ANDROID VS. APPLE | APPLES IS FOR EATING. | BLACK". I've removed the "Apples is for eating." text.

Download the attached file "eating apple_bootanimation.zip"

All you need is a modded kernel that supports custom boot animations. Pretty much every rom that is actively being developed supports custom boot animations- including Darky's, so knock yourself out. :)

It there a trick to this? I've been trying to get the original Galaxy S animation to work on Cognition 2.3b8 for... 4 hours now and still get a black screen with anything I do. I've tried rezipping with winrar and 7zip, rewrote the desc.txt, converted the images to 8-bit, and even used the creation tool in the BootAnimationPreview 1.5 program, but I still get a black screen. The animations listed in this thread work, however.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] 10tonhammr:
The source is bad. I can't figure it out. I was messing with that same file for 3 hours and couldn't get anything going with it. Don't know why. I've got a couple of variations of the stock animation that work great, so let me know and I can upload em or send em to you. Check out my boot animation thread in my sig, find the the full metal jacket animation with stock galaxy s, and the variations are all something similar. Or just d/l that, extract the part1 .pngs, repackage, and compile the desc.txt file to loop it. Hope this helps.

The mod to the playlogo1 file that enables custom boot animation support on custom captivate kernels prevents the use of a custom boot sound. Also, the change bootup/shutdown sound option in the sgs tools app doesn't work when trying to mod the bootup sound (again, for that same reason).

[Android Themes] WhiteiceDMSTech:
So I am trying to find a nice, complete set of text icons for my phone.

I have checked out Birdmans, Kovicons, and the one from Ultralinx.

I like them all, but the first two have things missing from them that I need but arent in any of there sets.

The Ultralinx one is the one I really like, but I don't want to make a paypal account just to purchase this (I don't use Paypal.)

So I am wondering if anyone else out there knew of any very nice, sharp, clean looking icon packs out there that I could check out?

Thank you,

Okay, so there have been 8 million threads about the fabled "Nexus Two" and what it will mean for the development and the future of the Vibrant. So I figured I should just create one thread for everybody (or at least most people) to use for all their specualtion needs.

Common Topics:

Will a Samsung Nexus Two mean we're going straight to Gingerbread?

How will this help Vibrant/Galaxy S development?

Will you get one?

Does this mean CyanogenMod will finally be supported for the Galaxy S?

So speculate away!

Thank You in Advance .
[HD2 General] xnifex:
yeah i'm pretty sure this isn't the place to be asking for that.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Indeed it is not. There is only one reason to ask for a Demonoid invite, and it aint to download anything legal. This violates the XDA rules under the Warez section. Please consult the rules before posting.
[HD2 General] maliks:
I'm sorry just asking invite anyways I'm sorry Admin delete my post if you want
[HD2 General] DaveNavy:
why would asking for an invite code be against site rules? its not posting warez or links to warez? its merely an invite code...not an executable (.exe) Just curious.:confused:
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Because it is soliciting warez, which is also against the rules. As I said up there, the only reason people want a Demonoid invite, is to download illegal material, and we at XDA do not provide methods to do such things.

yes via the integrated facebook contacts
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
This just started for me too, but I couldn't figure out what was causing it. How can I disable the Facebook syncing attempts that cause this? Is removing the Facebook sync account enough, or do I have to disable another apk as well?
[Fascinate General] devlp1213:
just uncheck contacts under the facebook account in settings or remove the sync account all together
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Actually, scratch that. Ever since I got a replacement Fascinate, the integrated Facebook syncing refused to sync my Facebook contacts. I tried everything possible, but it wouldn't work. Since it wouldnt work anyway, I figured I'd just disable it along with TW, but I decided to enable the TW launcher again, and now I see it's syncing properly now. Go figure. Well, since it's working now, I guess I'll just leave TW enabled, since I want my Facebook contacts to sync.

Hi all, I know there are many posts on this, but I have a customer with an i9000 and locked out of phone with pattern, and has forgotten pattern. No 3 button download, and not in debugging mode. so no 3 buttin fix. Am I wasting my time, should I just tell then to send it off to the service centre.

Uhm.. Perhaps you could try adb from a PC and do "adb reboot recovery" and then wipe your phone to default?

If I remember correctly it doesnt work.

But you could flash the 3 button fix - thats a start and maybe ypu can reflash it or something (no idea if it works).

use search function next time, and dont make post in development... its all in the STICKY!

Try to put your gmail login info from all different gmail account you have.

Also try this. Take out battery>wait for 3 hours > but the battery back > press power button for 20 seconds (This method was listed by one guy on other forum).

One guy also mentioned this method.

AGAIN ITS the lamest thing you could ever think of, anyway heres how it goes,

1) Log in to your google account on your pc, the same account you registered for your phone

2) After logging in look at the top right corner of your inbox/email page, it would say your google username. Like say if you name is John, and you have a google id thats registered to your galaxy s as ,john123@gmail.com. Now this google id on the top right corner of the page would be displayed asjohn123@googlemail.com

3) Type in the google id, thats visible on the right hand top corner of your page (likejohn123@googlemail.com) into your galaxy s handset locked page, and type in the password.

TADA AND YOUR ON TO THE NEW SCREEN TELLING YOU TO PUT IN ANOTHER PATTERN.

Thanks

If you cant login by computer then go here

Any way try all the methods and let me know if it works...BEST OF LUCK

or try recover mode and wipe all data

or try

this solution is with thanks to another person on another site...

You need a WiFi connection available for this to work!

1) Call your phone from a different phone.

2) Answer the call. While still connected...

3) Hit the BACK button on the phone (the arrow softkey)

4)This takes you to the home screen (it might take a few attempts, it depends on your timing. It took me 4 attempts)

5)Drag down your notifications bar and turn the WiFi on if it isn't already.

6)Close the notifications bar then hit the MENU softkey, select Settings then "Accounts and sync".

7)Click "Add Account" and select Google.

8)Sign up for a new google account as normal.

9)When the signup process is complete (and it must successfully create an account) you can hang up the call. (Do not sync the accounts)

10)Now when the phone asks you to unlock it using google credentials, use the ones from the account you just created. It will now ask you for a new security pattern, then for the same pattern again to verify.

11)Once you are back into the phone, turn off this "feature" until Google release a fix for the bug.

12)You can now delete the "false" google account which you just created from the phone. You should log into google and delete it from there too really.

13)Now reboot your phone. When the phone starts up and it still says "Phone Locked" don't panic!, Just drag the screen out of the way to unlock the phone, just like you did before you activated the pattern security.
