[WIP][Dev Help Needed] Enabling CRT Animation - HTC EVO 3D

I have pulled and edit the framework.res to include the CRT animation on the E3D. I have gotten it onto the phone. There is one problem we have run into... The phone needs to reboot. Doing a fastboot does not qualify as a "reboot" apparently. I haven't actually tried a reboot because I don't think the changes to the framework.res will stay intact. I even tried using fast reboot from the market and it doesn't help any either. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Basically, we just need framework.res to refresh without rebooting. I know, easier said than done.

The animations are already there inside framework-res.apk. You just need to make some smali changes inside services.jar to basically turn on the animations.

Try.killall zygote command. It restarts framework

I always wonder why it didn't have it. I thought it was a 2.3 thing but only phones I seen it was old epic and nexus s cant wait to see ur work

CRT Animation is not included framework-res.apk
It's effect include services.jar(/system/framework/)

To enable the CRT animation you only have to pull, edit and push the framework-res.apk to the phone and then get it to refresh or reload without rebooting. Rebooting wouldn't be a problem if we had actual root but that is the problem I am running into. I have not tried zygote killer. I will try that when I get home tonight.
I have tried fastboot from the phone, fast boot from the market and hot reboot from the market. Do not use hot reboot. Does not work. Screen stays black after rebooting.

All the tutorials online that show how to do it and all the devices that already have it done say that it has to do with framework-res.apk. I had the CRT animation on my atrix.

Why was this.moved to General? I mean..its clearly dealing with a WIP modification. If it doesn't belong in Development then I would think Apostle and themes.
Not general though. Just my thought. Seeks out of place here.

Sorry, not at all. framework-res.apk/res/anim that is not perfect.
Most hTC SENSE ROM! to the services.jar represents CRT animation.
hTC is not Motorola

You are correct that htc is not motorola but crt has zero to do with sense. It is an android animation.

I have added CRT to quite a few things when I was porting DHD, Desire Z & Desire S ROMs to the OG Evo. The animation files are already included in the framework-res.apk but they have to be "switched on" in the services.jar

It was moved because the OP isn't including anything in the form of Work which is the 'W' in WIP. I have an untested services.jar, if you really want to test.

I love to see this bc like I said I thought this was a stock feature for gingerbread but I won't lie I was just in leak stages when I had the epic and it had it. Just shocked me not to see it on the 3d supposedly being one on the top phones on market today us carrier wise so hmm. I would like to help if I can but I haven't messed with temp root bc I reset my phone sometimes in the day it it might die so on but let me know
Sent from my PG86100-EVO3D-using Tapatalk

Since we now have root for the Evo 3d, has anyone figured out an easy way to add/enable this animation?

Yh i was wondering that too, and wether or not virtuous will be pushing it into there next e3d ROM release

Anybody know how to remove HTC "spyware"?

With all of the talk regarding this HTC spyware and loggers in the new update, how do we remove this? From reading Apparently it goes deeper into the framework than being just the icq. Any ideas?

SteelH and flipzmode would be good to PM and inquire about. SteelH, I know that he is on the E3D/3vo/whatever you call it (OG EVO owner here). Flipzmode, I don't know if he got an EVO 3D but he managed to find and get rid of most of it. SteelH pretty much demolished all traces of Loggers and CIQ and everything in the OG EVO Gingerbread ROM release
Main thing is to sever the connection between your phone and HTC.
There is some in the kernel, so someone would need to strip it out of there too.

If what they say is true, everything is stored in 3 folders.

I checked these 3 and had loads of crap in them. I used root explorer to make them read only, and they have set empty since.

Install the kernel & then delete the 2 files out of /system/apps mentioned in the thread, there are more files to clean up but the .apk files actually launch the process.
I used root explorer to do the job.
Sent from my BEASTO 3D using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the tip.. I purchased Root Explorer deleted the files and set folders to read only also.
Though I'm not 2.3.4, this is pretty heavy info
Via root explorer, I see the files in /data/system. I changed permissions to read only anyway.
Also, 4 files "userbehavior." I changed to read only because I didn't like them either. I will report any negative outcomes. Otherwise, no news is good news from making read only.

I really appreciate the help here. Just to start, I went through UOT to grab a file that I could zip. I was thinking of decompiling the framework apk's and modding the stats_sys_battery.xml file, recompiling, and rezipping it up and then flashing that. I wasn't sure if that was going to work, but I'm a noob, so it was my first crack at it.

I think the stats_sys_battery.xml file sounds about right. I know you need to use baksmali and smali to edit them though. I'm in class right now but I'll look at it a little later.

ok guys here is your accurate battery mod. Please test it out and let me know if it works. I am not sure if the zip will flash correctly on your phone but if not just take the files out and push them and set permissions. I do not own a photon so I cannot test this out.
First boot will take longer than normal.

I downloaded a Sensation full app dump and found a htchubsyncprovider.odex and .apk. I am guessing they will do no good unless we have s-off and root. I can post them if someone wants.
I tried popping some of the APKs in and installing them, but no dice.. noob fail... Will just have to wait for root and a stock rom, I'd like to get sense.com back on it!
If the skins work reguardless of resolution, I can load up a sense 3.5 rom on my desire right before I get the rezound and download all the skins and such and then just dump them off my phone. That is assuming I get get the GSM Desire Sense 3.5 rom booting with a cdma patch.
No promises
Not that would really use this much. But, it really annoys the hell out of me. Not as much as the lack of landscape homescreens though.

Curious. Is the hub something that will come in time with or without Verizon block? Via update or something? Or is it only possible with s-off? Do other carriers do this? I'm so frustrated at this point with Verizon. I like this phone but I feel a bit ripped off. I also wonder if I don't know what the hell I'm talking about and just need to relax.

I believe that the RZD is the only 720p HTC phone atm and because VZW told HTC to keep the Hub to themselves, HTC hasn't had any reason to make extra skins for the RZD. Here's hoping that we can use the skins from unreleased 720p HTC phones that don't get ****-blocked by VZW.

It was a built in feature of gingerbread, was even one of the things they demonstrated during the gingerbread presentation. The reason you may think it was special for custom roms is that most carrier stock roms disabled it for whatever reason.

Rom Toolbox working/not working

Finally broke down and bought this app. Price tag is a little high considering you can get all the separate applications free, but not all under one roof. But that brings me to my question.
Have you or anyone else you heard of had issues with any of the programs in rom toolbox? Ad blocker has been a little inconsistent for me. Know he has been working on it though.
Does the boot screen changer work? Had any issues with font changer? Just want to know before I run into the same thing. Some of it is a little dangerous to run without being optimized for the phone. Especially the EVO LTE.
Any info would be appreciated. Please share any positive / negative effects you've had. Thanks!
It all works for me.. Some things such as the status bar icon installer might look a little goofy on Sense ROMs(I'm on cyanogemmod so I haven't tried it) but everything else should work. Its all mostly fundamental android tools that should work on any phone, EVO, GS3, or otherwise.

Another question unrelated to rom toolbox. In titanium backup pro u are supposed to be able to restore all apps & data at once. I've looked in settings and preferences but can't find it. Does it come up when u are restoring?
Pretty much the only reason I bought it was for the one click restore.

Which ROM are you running? I haven't tried it on a Sense ROM so I can't say for sure but that's all I can think of that might interfere with it. The tool basically just takes the animation and puts it into the right folder in the root of your phone.
I know on my old Hero it was stored a little different on some ROMs so that some boot animations with sounds and stuff caused issues.
Point is, its probably ROM based, not hboot related.
Edit: If you check the boot animation installer settings you can change the target of where its installing the animation. If you can find out where its installed on your ROM there's no reason for it not to work as long as you're rooted.
Edit#2: If on a sense ROM change the destination to /system/customize/resource/
And then change from bootanimation.zip to *scratch that, read post below for the right .zip name*
No guarantees it'll work but it looks like that's where its stored on a Stock w Goodies ROM I have on my SD card. I took the bootanimation from it and installed it on my paranoid android ROM and it worked so it should work the other way around.

I bought it yesterday myself. It's an awesome app, but boot animations don't work for me either, most likely due to a prerequisite of being S-OFF?

Boot animations just require root, and you have to tell rom toolbox the path/filename of the boot animation zip that the rom is looking for.
For sense-based roms on evo lte, that is
/system/customize/resource/SPC_bootanimation.zip
That filename is actually mutable. It's defined in /system/customize/CID/default.xml
So go into rom toolbox, boot animations. Then hit menu, Install Locations.
Common locations: "HTC EVO 4G"
That loads the other two settings with defaults that are closest to correct. Directory is correct, and you only have to modify the filename slightly from bootanimation.zip to SPC_bootanimation.zip

Basically, rom toolbox could read the correct values right out of default.xml. I don't know why it doesn't. Maybe the path/name of default.xml itself isn't consistent on all devices or maybe he just didn't think of it yet.

I have been using this since it first came out, bought it back on my OG EVO. It has been loads of help, and is nice to have everything under one hood.
