[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whattheh:
Yea goes into download mode never see a progress bar on odin or the device jus says do not turn off target. The bar at the end says pass and is green. I guess ill try again using a different usb port. O and yes it does recognize the device. And i am using motherboard usb ports.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whattheh:
Lag fix is disabled but system lag fix is on should that b off too?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Should not matter
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
Using odin. I know you are probably doing it because people have wrongly convinced you that it's required, but the instructions for Darky's say nothing about flashing stock before installing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whattheh:
Well now that im running darkys ur right and yet im still worried about not being able to go back to stock with odin. Hmm guess ill have to try again and c what happens
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] VampireRollen:
First off, Do they work? I have one that I've used in three different phones and now I've put it on my Shift. It seems like the signal is a little bit better, but this phone seems to have a harder time getting a signal than my heroc did. My dbd is 99 on my hero with no sticker and about 92 with it. I don't know how to find the dbd on my Shift and also the sticker says this side up, but shouldn't I point it down towards the antenna in the Shift? Isn't it in the bottom of the phone? :]
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
LOL, um, nope. In fact they can actually BLOCK signal.

1. You're not making any contact with the REAL antenna.

2. Antennas are tuned to 1/4 or 1/2 wavelength of the signal being broadcast.

If you paid for it, you just qualified for the "sucker born every minute" line from P.T. Barnum. Sorry.

I know a bit about antenna theory and design. My amateur radio call sign is KG4AIB and I've been licensed for quite a few years.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] kenvan19:
Did you also know that putting a convex clear plastic covering over your license plate it will make it so traffic cameras can't take a clear picture of your plate!

Oh and eating grass will make your allergies go away.

Its called the placebo effect; if you believe something will help, and I mean really believe it, your mind believes it to and will act as if it does regardless of all logic to the contrary. Its how those balance wrist-band things work. They tell you that it works and its amazing because it uses anti-sufferage-super-misogynist waves to help you stand up more straight and then you naturally stand up more straight when wearing it. Bingo, they're right.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] VampireRollen:
It was only a few bucks and I just wanted to try it. Thanks for the replies. I didn't think it would actually hurt my signal though. :/
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
Actually.... Getting "grass" injections over time will build up your immunity to grass pollen allergies. Tho won't make them go away. But anyway, this isn't about allergies, nor how many injections I get a week due to allergies. ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] BuddahWolf01:
haha you get a "thank you" for that awesome post.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
Haha, thanks for the thanks but it wasn't really meant to be funny. In all seriousness, I'm majorly allergic to dogs as well as most pollens. I get 2x weekly injections to build up a tolerance. Sadly, I'm over 40 yrs old and will probably continue to receive them until the day I die. :eek:

oh, and did I say I hate needles with a passion????
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] BuddahWolf01:
I knew you were being serious, because only someone that got "grass injections" would know that info haha. A close friend of mine is a farmer and he is allergic to most things that come from the outdoors... pretty strange.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] herbthehammer:
I used to smoke grass back in the day...
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
I almost want to thank you for the LAUGH.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] emkorial:
If they actually worked, why wouldn't HTC put them in the phone when they make it?
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] SAlpIche:
because they would have to charge you more for the phone? $.35 for the thingy, $.05 for the person attaching it to the back of the phone, $.03 for the person opening the package in which they come, $99.99 for the three lines on the phone's hand book describing the new feature...
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] friar96us:
I definitely want to thank you for the laugh it just made my day and sadly I just had my gallblader removed yesterday and even though I may be in pain. It was definately worth it:)
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] llvengancell:
i have to disagree. It dose work and its not placebo affect. I have documented proof it helps when placed right. The antenna ont he shift is located at the bottom of the phone and thus when ur hand is covering it it knocks down receptoins. the booster stickers made my bars on my phone go up by three. Before i had the sticker i was getting cruddy reseption when i held it now i only go down one bar. I dont know how it improved it but at first it didnt.

I placed in the wrong location the first time the second time i put it on the actual antenna and boom instant increase in reception. not placebo affect at all. I do have to say though the best thing for increasine your phones receptoin is super power in the market and switching your phone to a 2g or 3g only band.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
NOT. you're not making a physical, electrical connection. Therefore, Placebo effect. But if you want to believe, feel free.

No disrespect, but you should also "believe" in a spell checker too.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] llvengancell:
kinda hard to spell check from the phone.... and how can this be a placebo effect since i have a much higher db and more signal? It works the same way as placing a cd behind a wireless antenna. Please don't make me have to make a you tube video on this just to prove im right. I know all about placebo effect and this dose not fall into that category. Explain this to placebo affect.

[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] danaff37:
I saw this one where they unlocked a car with a tennis ball
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Kirby Baker:
Just a quick observation on that video. First half without the sticker, he held it with left hand. Second half with sticker, held with right hand. Should have done both tests identical.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] llvengancell:
2 dollars witch is the cost of these stickers isn't much. Most people blow 2 dollars on really silly crazy crap. If you can blow it on candy bars and McDonald's sweet tea then why not spend 2 bucks and try this for yours self. I honestly see a improvement. If i didnt i would not post it on here. This is not a forum to say something when you have no facts. Here are the facts from my experiments.

With out the sticker at work facing the glass window in the direction of the cell phone tower i got 3 bars.

With the sticker facing the same direction with the same variables Full bars.

With out the sticker with only three bars facing the window and the cell tower i could down load at just under 1 meg on the 3g network.

With it i had full coverage and could download at fluxes of under 1 meg and well over about 1.3 to 1.6 and yes wifi was off

I could not tell a difference when making calls how ever and i did notice that with out the sticker if i stood behind the wall can got online i got better reception and with it i got less.

So my Hypothesis is this. With a clear view and to electromagnetic interference you can get improved cell phone coverage with he sticker but if you are near EMI and have the sticker on its like it amplifies it and you have horrible reception.

Don't take my word or the word of any one else just go spend 2 bucks and try it if it fails then stick the sticker on your forehead and see if you get smarter by staring into the sun :)

[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
First, your testing methodology is horrible and wouldn't pass ANY kind of test.

2, your grasp of antenna theory is horrible. Don't for once consider parasitic reflection to be anywhere close to the same as these joke stickers.

Here's a blind test of the same joke stickers.

http://www.andybrain.com/extras/cellphone-antenna-booster-sticker-review-and-test.htm

http://www.suite101.com/content/dont-use-a-cell-booster-sticker--to-boost-cell-signal-a283222

But, again, believe what you want. America is full of the gullible, lemming class of folks that refuse to accept scientific evidence to the contrary.

Someone once marketed a miracle antenna that plugged into your wall outlet to turn your "whole house into a TV antenna". Hilariously there were NO metal conductors, the prongs to make the connection were plastic and the whole thing was bogus. But they sold a million of them "As Seen On TV". There's a whole crapload of "miracle diet pills" out there too.

I know that McDonalds Sweet tea will "work", no lame claims there. I know that Candy bar for $2.00 will "work", no lame claims of miracles there either.

Not worth arguing over any longer. It's your money. And like the saying goes, "a fool and his money soon part".

these signal boosting SCAM stickers have been around for a decade. Sucker still buy them.

Save your $2 and Donate it to the Red Cross for Japan or something.

I also have a rock that keeps away tigers. How do I know it works? I've never been mauled by a tiger.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Kirby Baker:
Nice rock! Got any to sell? I would buy one to go with my sticker and that magic balance bracelet too! :)
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
You know, as a kid, back in the 70's, I had a pet rock. Amazingly it kept away tigers, lions, bears, monkeys, snakes, lizards and if used correctly, even my little brother.

Mine has yours beat.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] grandebob:
Man, I wish I had that kind of money. Tigers were an immediate worry, so I went with the single function rock. I know in the long run the high end model would save me money but at the time couldn't afford the upcharge.
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] Compusmurf:
Let me slap my most favorite tag line on it. "New and Improved" and sell it to you cheap.

What moron combined THOSE 2 words. Well??? Is it NEW or is it IMPROVED?
[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] ttown:
I had a tiger that kept away rocks. Sold it to Mike Tyson!

Too bad that lemmings don't really go off the clip. That phrase was developed after a group of nat geo filmographers chased the lemmings off the cliff. They just chose to only use footage of the actual cliff diving.

[EVO Shift 4G Accessories] notsointeresting:
Lol first of all you do realize the LAST post in this thread was made 6 months ago right? and the thread was orginally made when the phone came out. So to honestly start a rant over a six month old thread is a little pointless...Just saying.

Also, the reply that you "quoted" was actually very useful information, but also surrounded by a little humor to lighten up the "bad" information. (and he stated a good point about placebo effect :D)...Just saying

and third if the ONLY thing we did in these threads were give out facts, upon information, and showed no personality in our posts and demonstrate courtesy to everyone else (which your not doing) these threads would be very boring (like some of the other threads on xda-not saying anynames) and nobody would want to participate and share information in that type of enviroment....just saying

I understand a couple of posts in this thread were a little useless. (and i only read the first page lol) but it helps lighten the mood. Plus this was the first month after the phone was released,and im sure everyone was still meeting, and greeting people in the "new" thread at the time...Just saying

Lighten up a bit, enjoy the flowers (except for the guy thats allergic to them :D). and enjoy the forums:cool:
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] fone_fanatic:
Thanks to GLa'DOS for creating the originals. See the original thread here

3 Options to install.

First step: Extract downloaded .zip file to reveal "bootanimation.zip"

1. ADB

Navigate to the folder containing "bootanimation.zip" in terminal/command prompt.

Type the following

adb push bootanimation.zip /Data/Local

Then to test, set your device so display is in landscape (will not display properly if you have it on portrait and test it but will display fine either way on boot)

adb shell bootanimation

2. Root Explorer

Copy "bootanimation.zip" to your SD card

On your Streak open up Root Explorer (or any other app that allows you to copy paste to the internal memory)

Copy "bootanimation.zip" and paste it to /Data/Local

3. Terminal Emulator

thanks nickshertzer, his directions are for drop box but can easily be manipulated for simply copying the bootanimation.zip to your SDcard

Enjoy :D
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] krazman325:
Installed the red one with option #2. Looks and runs great on DJ Steve's 1.6.0.

Thanks fone_fanatic!
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] lufc:
Nice work will give it a try.

Its nice to change the boot now and then thanks:)
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] ixi81:
Thank You - Very Nice
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] krazman325:
@ fone_fanatic

If you have the time, would it be possible for you to combine the first 1/2 of your Bios animation with this Scribble animation?

Thanks for your consideration!

bk
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] nickshertzer:
These are great! Thank you so much for sharing!

Really would be cool to write up an app that randomized the bootanimation.zip so you never know what you'll see on next boot...
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] fone_fanatic:
That's not a bad idea... I'll try to mock something up in the next couple of days
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] krazman325:
Thank you! I appreciate that.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] z4ck38:
Is there anyway you could make a version of this boot w/o the flare that is oriented for booting in landscape mode or is there a way to do this??

I love the animation, but i always hold my streak on it's side.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] fone_fanatic:
For landscape, head over to the original thread, and download it from there and try that. i think they will work in landscape.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] borijess:
Do u just install this using clockwork recovery?

[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] zgmf-x322a:
the pics wouldnt load :S
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] Foxhoundep3:
just install one of them and you will see awesomeness :D
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] No_It's_Not_An_iPad:
I know it's been mentioned before, but I'd really like to get a download of this in landscape optimized for the Streak. (the no-flare version, specifically...) If you get the time, could you rotate the images real quick and post it? Either way, this is a great boot animation!
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] rsalib:
If you can make one with a white light that would be awesome.

I am trying to compile any goodies to compliment my white streak.

Thanks in advance.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] sukemecuke:
so you don't need to extract out the zip info?

you just need to place the file as a zip into Data/Local?

Am I reading the below correctly?

2. Root Explorer

Copy "bootanimation.zip" to your SD card

On your Streak open up Root Explorer (or any other app that allows you to copy paste to the internal memory)

Copy "bootanimation.zip" and paste it to /Data/Local
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] defcon.666:
awesome thanks so much I will try it now
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] dflohr:
Very slick and a nice change. Thanks.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] defcon.666:

Hi guys, here is the theme I've been working on for the last couple of days.

None of the elements are made by me but many of them are modified.

Thanks go to R64, HTC (yes, the company), Reefermattness, Jumba and D3StRoY.

Most of the elements are from R64 and from a Desire HD framework.

Install it from ClockworkMod recovery. MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!!! I am not responsible for anything that might happen to your system!

Update: Due to the fact that the theme now supports multiple ROMs and system applications are changed quite often by ROM developers, I stopped "themeing" applications.

Enjoy ;) - Downloads at the bottom -

Quick question... I'm runnin' on the Firebird ROM, and since it's an i9000 ROM, will it be compatible with i9000 themes? Thanks in advanced.

Yes, it should be compatible.
