[Q] Television style powet on/off - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm unable to post in the rom forums (-10 posts) so I will try it this way. The way the screen "fades" away like a television is class as in the CoreDroid rom. Is this also possible as a single download or mod while using a other rom? Like Android Revolution HD?
If so, please send the link within your reply
Thanks in advance!

It's called CRT animation, and there's not a flashable zip or anything for my device - that doesn't mean there isn't one for your device. Check in your device's forum.
There is an app that has screen off animations, including the one you're talking about, but I believe that you have to use the app/shortcut to turn the screen off. I've never used the app so I don't know the name, just seen it mentioned.

Lock screen

Hi all,
I'm interested in the Nexus One lock screen fot my rooted Hero.
Is there a way to install this?
I don't need a complete ROM, cause mine already got Android 2.1...
Hope there's a seperate package for this lock screen cause the standard HTC lock screen is boring.
Thanks in advance
There is an app for that /apple fag from TV..
But seriously, there is an App - it's £10~ I think.. I can't remeber what it's called... Someone back me up on this.
Im pretty sure this should be in Questions/Answers...
But the app thatn00b100 is talking about is LockBot... there is a free and paid version available on market...
Or the best way to have a functional 2.1 lock screen is using either Villain Rom or Sensehero 2.1 and using the packaged script
MOD EDIT - Moved to correct forum
Sorry for posting my message in the wrong section.
Is the Villain Rom (5.4) also with Dutch language?

As long as your image is 480*800 (w/h) you can use this thread to create your own splash images.
however you must be using the engineering hBoot.

[Boot Animations] Custom Movie Themed for Photon (9/7/2011)

This will be my first foray into any sort of Andriod development and I will be starting with boot animations here with down animations to follow.
All animations will be tested on my handset prior to my posting, zipped with no compression, and installed to /system/media using Root Explorer, permissions set to rw-r-r.
If you experience flicker or any difficulties please let me know!
Please post requests for what you'd like to see!
Animations
Happy Feet Intro Dance

As corny as this sounds, I'd like to have the Moto Bionic boot screen, with sound.
I've tried several times to make it on my own, but I can't get it to work.

I am unable to take credit for this, but if you go here you'll find what you're looking for.
anything chicago bears will be pretty damn sweet.
Could you modify the stock boot animation to just repeat the "pulse" animation that it starts with? I was trying to do this but I can't seem to pull it apart correctly and put it back together.
Regarding the stock animation, yes I should be able to do that. My apologies for not replying sooner as I've been on the road for business.

Is it possible.

Hi.
Have been reading in t I have upgraded my Xperia S to 4.04CH, and it is a joy.
However, google / Sony have not optimized the usage of the screen of the smartphone, so the number of icons & apps available on every screen is limited.
Is there any way, that one coul "rearrange" the icons and free space on the different screens.
To illustrate i have taken a couple of screenshots.
Yellow boxes are items that ought to be moved
White boxes are umused areas that could be brought to use.
Anyone have any idea of how to do the above ?
Furthermore - is there a way, to get the phone to display a number 0-99/100 instead of the battery icon ?
Hope you have got some ideas
Thanks

you have to have root (and recovery is essential as well if you don't know how to use adb) and modify system files to achieve that. look in the Themes & Apps section, someone has already done that and made the flashable zips available for download.
regarding the home screen issue, again, you have to modify the apk file itself; edit the layout then rebuild the apk and flash/push it back to you phone. there's also a modded home screen app in the Themes & Apps section, though i haven't check what has been changed, so take a looky there.

Preaty sure you can achive what you want with any third party launcher, most have the option to sett the grid size of the hs.
As far as battery icon goes, il take the question further and ask: does the uot kitchen work with sxs files?

Wakelock problems
Hi everyone! I am using CandyKat Rom. Does anybody "suffer" that when you press the screen turn on button ( I forgot what's its name) it does not turn on. Can anybody suggest what to do? It's the best rom, but I this irritates me. Thanks everyone. ????

Wake lock
2 possible fixes.....
First you could disable HD overlays, I know that works
The other possibility could be Pollution patch. I have never used it as I haven't had the need. But I know many swear it will cure everything but cancer. The patch I believe is more of a Kit Kat cure all, not necessarily specific to Kandy Kat.
To the OP, due to the lack of development with our beloved but aging device, not sure it is necessary to create a Q&A here for the rom. Sorry, but I don't exactly believe that the thread is blowing up over there.

I have no idea what or who Q&A bot is, I try to look up profile and it says "invalid".
If it is a rom specific question it is fine to post there. If it is a device specific question, I would take it here. There is not so much development going on here that the thread are blowing up.
If Mr.Bot was upset about my response, he would have surely had something to say.

if u are having wakelock issues..the two possible fixes are as follows
1) set governor to wheatley.
2) check out my thread about an xposed module that helps with kernel panic related to system. Link
The issue the above member is referring to with hw disabling is the screen flicker...and yes. Disabling hw overlay will solve that issue,as will pollutions aroma patch or a simple build prop edit.
I use both the above fixes ( 1&2 ) and wakelocks are a thing of the past for me. As for the screen flicker. Most devs bake the build prop edits in now.
I'm not a dev, i'm just a flash junkie. if i knew what i was doing i would attempt to build it myself, but is it possible that the fast charge feature of the diablo kernel from the hellybean rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2457323 could be built into the uber kernel? am i posting in the right place? sorry if i'm not. i love this rom and have no bugs so far but battery life/charging time suck. thanks to those who put time and effort into doing something that makes me feel like an idiot. thanks in advance.
Hi ,, apparently I cannot flash anything yet.
I have Gingerbread with TWRP installed. I have tried a couple of roms but they fail.
Any ideas?

Hi there. You cannot flash kitkat roms in gingerbread. You should have the jellybean, you can do that by using kies. Note that you should also have cwm 6.0.4.3 and up to flash kitkat roms: )

Carried over from the Dev Thread.
Recently flashed this ROM on my Note. Very much enjoy it.
I have flashed the camera fix, stopped my cam from FC'ing. The camera takes great pictures. The recording delay while annoying is something I can live with, however.. It doesn't record anything. Acts like its recording, and such, but doesn't seem to write anything anywhere.
Any ideas?
Just installed CandyKat-quincyatt-4.4.4.release.v1.6.0-Official-20140922 on my note, but now the hard navigation buttons on my device do not work at all, and there is an extra navigation bar on the screen with the same functions as the existing buttons on the device. I found in the candykat options a checkbox to turn off the software navigation bar, but when I do this I still do not have any functionality with the real navigation buttons on my note.. How do I enable the real nav buttons?

ok.. more problems with nav bar: I tried to turn off the navigation bar in the candy interface options and reset the device to see if it would re-enable the hardware buttons, but now I cannot use the hardware buttons and trying to reenable the on-screen navigation bar does nothing. Clicking the checkbox for navigation bar and nothing shows up on screen. Also, in the same candy interface > navigation bar menu options, if I click the "Show landscape" checkbox it crashes the process com.android.systemui 100% of the time.
EDIT #3:
So I was going to try and manually edit the build.prop file to see if I can reenable my hardware keys, only to discover that this ROM does not support USB file transfer. The device charges fine when connected to USB, but does not even appear in device manager on my computer.. changing usb ports does nothing, enable/disable usb debugging on device does nothing.. also the device randomly freezes, shows a pinky-orange screen and reboots when going into the settings menu. This ROM is too broken, I don't know how anybody is using this. I'm going to have to switch to something more stable with working USB and options.
Android L
Will there be android L in this Rom ? I
