CM7 unlock animation won't work. - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've ticked/unticked the box multiple times, and rebooted. But nothing will get the animation to work. The lock one works fine though.
Any solutions?

You mean the lockscreen or the on off animations? If its the lock screen try flashing cm7 ontop of what you have now see if that fixes it.
If its the animations make sure in spare parts animation speed is not set to fast, when mine is set to fast the on off animations don't work for me.

If this doesn't work, perhaps try Fix Permissions in ROM Manager?

I turned down the transition time in spare parts and its working again! Thanks guys.

Through the regular settings menu I adjusted the Animations to "No animation". As much as I love the animations on pretty much any phone/rom I've ever had, I'm running the Stock 2.2 release and it's whippy as hell if you just turn off the animations! Haha, it's odd but nothing too much you really miss. Stuff actually kinda pops up quicker, which a cool tweak I've never thought to try before.

Thanks guys that did the trick! Any other quick tricks I should do?

Paid app called system animation has a slider to speed up system/anis.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.

gingerbread crt screen off animation on ANY build

theres people asking for this....and i don't think people should flash a non stable rom just for this animation....so here:
screen off and lock
doesn't use lock button, but you can remap long press of search button (i don't use google voice actions that much) to lock the screen with an animation.
hope this helps some people
oh....and if you're rooted (which most people on here are) you can pull the xml animation file and rename it lock_screen_enter.xml or lock_screen_behind_enter.xml, then push it to your frameworkres.apk/anim, it will be your animation for unlocking your phone. it's ultra fast and fits perfectly with the unlock sounds.
i'd include a video, but i dont have a digital camera....
Hmm, Im going to wait to see if someone tries this. Could be pretty epic.
Hmm I was under the impression that the frameworks prior to ginger bread had no support for that kind of animation.
Might when I get home, I really do like the tv animation

I guess pre-gingerbread, the sdk doesn't call for an xml when hitting the power/lock button. So that's why I use the feature to remap long pressing the search button.

doesn't give me screen off animation like in gingerbread on my Vibrant..... uninstalled.....
You guys have to configure it first, you know..... Look in your apps for "configure screen off and unlock" it's not that difficult.

I'm using a vibrant too....and it doesn't require root....so whoever can't make it happen: you're doing it wrong

Thanks for quick responcse, but also I'm not dumb. I've configured it and still nothing.
Do you have all animations turned on in settings/display?

I didn't call anyone dumb. Just said that it's being done wrong. I'm just trying to help, buddy. And it doesn't use the power button...read the op

alright, sorry , it sounded like ya think i'm a moron. I tried 2 times, reinstalled, restarted, and still no Gingerbread style tv off animation. There seems to be a slightly different animation when putting phone to sleep when I set it to "old style TV", but def not gingerbread , not even close.
So I guess I'm must be doing something VERY wrong with the simple instructions and setttings... IDK man. Not sure what to say,
Thanks for the app, unfortunately tho it does not give that GB style tv off animation
EDIT: yes I have all animations turned on, always do
I figure it's close enough for those who really wanted the animation like me. And it works in landscape. So that's a plus to me.
I just wasn't down to install an unstable gb build for this animation.

I'm not bashing at all. Just reporting back from my use of the app. NONE of the animations I select work , so maybe it is the ROM I'm using. IDK.
Ty anyways
That's weird man. Sorry it's not working for ya. What rom are you using? I'm using original bionix v.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Working very well, thanks man! Are there any ways to speed/slow down the animation?
EDIT: Can you also elaborate on unlock animation? Does this mean when we hit the power button the screen will turn on that way in reverse? I'd like to get that going, but would I have to know how to edit and recompile an apk? I've never really messed with xml files.
I mean the transition from your lock screen to your home screen/open app.

can we do this using root explorer?
What I do is take this app from data/app and bring it to my computer, and extract scale_old_tv.xml, and rename it to lock_screen_exit.xml and take your framework, and drop it into framework/res/anim

Questions about lock aNimation

Has anyone ever figured out how to get the gingerbread crt lock animation on a regular 2.2/2.2.1 rom?
Because I really do not feel like odining back to JFD just to flash a gingerbread rom
Can't be done.
It can't be done because the crt effect is located in the kernel and can't be back ported.
Also, this question has been answered numerous times since the effect was first shown off.

Check out "screen off and lock" in the market, it has built in animations, including the gingerbread crt one.

[Q] Anyone have a Honeycomb-ish unlock screen?

I'm using stock nooted 1.2. and I'm looking for either a ported version of the honeycomb unlock screen or a similar replacement. I found Ripple Lock, but it doesn't always work right and it usually disables the NC's battery-saving sleep mode. I liked how Ripple Lock adjusted screen orientation though. Anyone have a somewhat functioning .zip they've been working on that I can flash in recovery? I'll beta test for someone if I need to.
I use lock bot pro.

Smoother transitions?

If you all haven't already noticed, T-mobile changed something in regards to window transitions,( such as opening and closing an app) And they're extremely fast and choppy. Is there any way to change the animation speed to that of stock jellybean?
I've tried lowering them in developer options, but windows still open too fast and somewhat choppy. I've also tried changing the launcher and it didn't help either.
I know it's not that the phone is to slow or anything as some app windows open and close as if they would on stock jellybean (Like settings and opening a notification from the panel)
As long as you are rooted, try Framework tool. I modded mine and the animations are perfect for me.

Thanks!
Can you tell me what settings you used?
I used slide animations and changed the toast notifications. YMMV. I also changed the animation speed to .5 in developer's options.
A little tip: clear your dalvic and cache when you make changes. This prevents the stock ui from giving you warnings when you boot up.
Keep a backup in case you don't like the changes.
