Android :: Froyo Media Not Mounting In Time On Boot-up - Works In Eclair
Nov 6, 2010
I have a Live Wallpaper app that is working very well on Eclair but there is a strange issue with Froyo that I can't find any information about. The user is able to select a custom picture as a background from their gallery and it will be saved to internal storage (/ Snowflakes/CustomBG.jpg) and applied as a background to the live wallpaper. That all works fine until the user reboots their phone... The problem is that the internal storage doesn't seem to be mounted in time for when the live wallpaper starts and so it reverts to the default setting when null is returned (see code below). As I say, this problem has only been introduced with Froyo as Eclair works fine (the image is found and used so the internal storage must be mounted before the Live Wallpaper starts).
Here's the code that searches for the CustomBG.jpg image on startup...
CODE:................
Apologies for the code formatting - is there any way I can improve this? Anyway, I'd be very grateful for any help you may have... I can't find any information about this on-line so perhaps there's something wrong with my code?

So I was thinking about the fact that Verizon changed the phone I purchased by adding apps with the froyo update. Can you deny the update to froyo? Not that I know of without getting the popup every half an hour. I purchased this phone outright when it came out and want to get a droid 2 and was thinking about ways the exchange this phone. I guess what I am trying to say is; can I go to Verizon and say that they either need to change my phone back to the purchased item or take a return and give me a refund?I am ASSUMING this and wanted to know if anyone knows of any laws about this?

Lately, my HTC Magic with Android 1.5 suffering problem of unmounting SD card whenever boot up, or leave running for a while.I'd installed a couple of apps lately, but now, I'm not sure what's wrong with my phone.I don't want to Reset to Factory Settings. Is there anyway I could pinpoint what's wrong with my phone?

I have been giving ROM Manager from the market a go this afternoon and I am very impressed. I can swap between Eclair and Froyo within a minute, sweet.

at the moment I am thinking about a new app and need some information to decide whether to develop on Android or an alternative OS. I am particularly interested in "time to first screen", "boot-up time", "time to first Audio" and "app-start" (can be any from the android market or even one of the pre-installed ones) time? Does anyone know a source or perhaps measured those numbers?

So I did like this: I made a backup with myBackup. I reseted the phone to factory deafults. I launched it back and checked tethering - it was working fine, as it should. I restored my backup of apps and data, without phone settings. The tethering doesn't work anymore. Could there be an app which is disabling it and common to all of us having this problem?
I include list of my apps created with MyAppsList:

Anyone know of a froyo alternative for dockrunner? I have bedside, but there are some thing I don't care for with it. Did some searching, but couldn't find anything that worked, so I though I'd ask the community.

Does anyone have any idea how Tango works internally, from the Logcat I came to know that it used xmpp jingle as the protocol, however when I sniffed the data using wireshark I found that the entire data was going over SSL, was wondering if anyone knows anything about this piece of work.

Just updated to Froyo, and my camera no longer works, neither in camera or video mode. Tap the icon and the screen shows the white startup icon, then goes back to the home screen. I'm on 3 in the UK, and have an unbranded, un-locked handset, as sent to me by 3. The phone is not rooted.

Encoding a video to the following specs and loading it on the EVO plays with the included video player perfectly. No jumping and clear, in sync sound. 720p resolution so the HDMI out should work once the cables are available. h.264 at Level 3.1, 3 reference frames and baseline profile. 1280 x 720 AAC stereo audio at 44100Hz, 128kbps Bit rate does not seem to be all that important as long as the video file is less than 2GB.Muxed to an mp4 container in IMSA standard format and optimized for streaming.

I downloaded the free version of Media Monkey on Wendsday to sync songs to my 32g memory card. I had over 2000 songs with missing artwork and tags to begin with. It took me over 2 days to get all the artwork/tags with the built in search on MM. I finished with the library last night andd this morning I plugged the card into my computer (didnt sync phone). MM found the card right away without changing any settings. Took almost 2 hours to transfer just over 4000 songs. When it was done, I mounted the card on the phone. Took awhile to scan. Went to music player and all the songs were there (thank god). And to boot, all the artwork was there also. So if you need a good sync program comparable to itunes, use MediaMonkey Download.

I have a cheap old bluetooth headset that worked great with my Q9c. Now I want to use it with the DX for podcast. It paired and connected just fine. And I can make phone call with it. However, it won't play any media audio (Google Listen, Pandora, etc.).
In bluetooth setting the device is connected to phone audio. Does it need to be connected to something like "media audio"? Is it just the limitation of my BT headset or I can work around it by tweaking a setting on the phone?

This post in AndroidGuys claims that the Epic 4G's Media Hub update will also work on other Galaxy S phones. Not that I care about the Media Hub that much but has anyone tried to apply the Epic 4G's Media Hub update to their non-Epic 4G Galaxy S phones?

I'm having some boot delay in my Galaxy Ace. It runs 2.3.4 gingerbread and takes 1 minute to boot up ! When i bought it, it was very fast indeed, arround 20~40 seconds to boot.
My boot starts with the Samsung words, then an android animation comes, it ends, then something writed Google in the screen and bellow it has the loading circle, the same when you're waiting a video on YouTube.
I can do something to speed it up ?

I wish I was good with animation. Thinking it would be cool to have a stylized "2.2" zoom in and break a pane of glass to reveal a flaming droid eye behind the now broken pane.

I was able to change the boot animation before Froyu using the procedure at http://androidforums.com/tips-tricks-evo-4g/109120-how-install-new-boot-animation-without-root.html.After Froyo, I've tried to push the zip file as VZW_bootanimation.zip and bootanimation.zip to both /data/local and /system/customize/resource (I can't write to that location, I think it's for rooted phones only). None of these four options worked.What am I missing? That native boot animation is nasty.

No major issues, but my startup screen does seem to take a LOT longer before the phone actually loads, and once it does none of my buttons/widgets appear for another 5-10 seconds. Additionally, once in a while when exiting a program none of the buttons are on the home screen for 3-5 seconds, and sometimes a Force Close error pertaining to the home activity will pop up ... anyone else experience anything similar, or even just notice a longer boot time?
