Mine has never done this.
If so how do you get it to say Droid when you boot up the phone?
As stated in the title, would it be possible for someone to turn the nexus one bootup animation or even the Droid boot up animation into a live wallpaper?

Looks like the N1 gets to the unlock screen first, but the Droid is done loading all the widgets and ready to use faster.
This should quell all our N1 envy for a while. We don't even know if the Droid is OC'd and it beat out the fastest N1 ROM out there.

I know others have certainly tried this already but I haven't seen it mentioned yet so I thought I'd throw it out there for any interested parties.
Many of us have previously created an app.disabled folder to store unwanted files that could be retrieved if we ever want them back. I've never tried to disable a sound (mp3) before but I was tired of hearing the Drrooooooid every time I boot up the phone so I ditched it using ADB. Animation still works the same, just no volume.
mv /system/customize/resource/VZW_Droid.mp3 /system/app.disabled
(Note the spaces after "mv" and "mp3"). Much more enjoybable now.
I tried to cut/paste it elsewhere with Linda File Manager but was denied access due to read only status. Not sure if Root Explorer would bypass that or not and I don't have it to verify.
I'm trying to pass a bundle of two values from a started class to my landnav app, but according to the debug nothing is getting passed, does anyone have any ideas why?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is a way to determine who passed an intent to my application. For example, I have a service, that I want to act differently depending on who passed the intent (for security reasons). I'm trying to sandbox each calling application, so they only have access to their data stored in my application.
For it to be secure, I cannot trust any application to be truthful about the identifying data it is passing into my service. Therefore, I need some system way of identifying who sent the intent in a way that the calling application cannot change that information. I don't know if it is possible, but I can't find anything in the Intent class, and I was wondering if there may be another structure which does what I want it to. If it is not possible, I would like to get some type of mechanism to do this in the roadmap.
Is there a way to disable the audio that plays when you boot the phone and the sprint "4G" image is coming on?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am writing a music player for esoteric music formats, and have defined mime types for them in my Manifest.
However, the standard music player is always started even though it can't handle the format. Looking at logcat I see;
: D/MediaScannerService( 688): IMediaScannerService.scanFile: / sdcard/download/Cybernoid.sid mimeType: audio/prs.sid : I/ActivityManager( 578): Stopping service: com.android.providers.media/.MediaScannerService : I/ActivityManager( 578): Starting activity: Intent { action=android.intent.action.VIEW data=file:///sdcard/download/ Cybernoid.sid type=audio/prs.sid flags=0x4000000 comp={com.android.music/com.android.music.MediaPlaybackActivity} }

Why below code is throwing nullPointer exception in last line (when accessing javaInterface.mValue) This line through NullPointer, so basically it is not being set. even though the javascript is correct and has been verified using FireBug that it returns expected string.

I have an activity that implements LocationListener in my application and my onLocationChanged method has been working perfectly up until recently. For some reason the Location object being passed into the method is null. My question is, why is it null? Does it pass in a null object if it cannot acquire a location?
My GPS is on and I have it set to pull a location from the GPS, and I know my GPS can get a fix on me as I used Maps and had it locate me.
Also, I have the permission for my app set as:

I don't believe permissions is the issue though, as my activity was working beforehand and I have not altered the permissions since then.
Here is the code that determines the provider of the location object:

I have tested the same code on another device (an HTC MyTouch 3G to be precise) and it works flawlessly with the GPS, however on my Motorola Droid it crashes.

To sum up:
When I click on an item in the ListView, the background color that gets changed is not that of the clicked item but instead of the other item in the opposite side relative to the middle item:
1 <-- I click here 2 3 <-- Acts as a mirror 4 5 <-- This is the one that gets changed
1 2 <-- This is the one that gets changed 3 <-- Acts as a mirror 4 <-- I click here 5
This problem persists even when I use CheckedTextView like what is suggested in the post.
I use the latest stable SDK.
This problem occurs when the target platform is Android 1.6, 2.0 or 2.0.1.
The problem does not occur when the target platform is Android 1.1 or 1.5.
However, the problem will also occur when the program is compiled for 1.5 and run in 2.0.1.
The simple problematic code can be found here: [url]
There I also put the screenshots showing the problem: demo01.png: I click an item. demo02.png: the clicked item doesn't get changed but the reflective item does.
Is this a bug in newer Android platforms?
If it is intended, what is the reason and could you please show me how I should fix my code?
Is there a way to scale the Drawable passed to TextView.setCompoundDrawables ? The following code works very well but of course is set to the full intrinsic size of the drawable. This code is used with the Holder pattern in a ListView where the purpose is to update the drawable without two more Views (LinearLayout and ImageView) to accomplish the same thing. code...
I suppose I can use Drawable.setBounds() and preserve the original aspect ratio with a small function but just wondering if there this a more direct way to do this with the api?
My phone has just presented with the above problem. When I switch it on it won't boot passed the start up screen with the big 'S' and 'Samsung Galaxy S II' below it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am NOT asking how to prevent these apps to start automatically at bootup, I could see that there are already a few threads for that and I read them. I am just wondering: why do these apps start automatically?

Last night I exchanged my Fascinate for the Incredible due to some really poor call quality issues. Well, I am not a huge fan of Sense - mainly due to the swipe down action of answering calls and unlocking the phone but I digress. So I decided to root. I've rooted several phones before (Eris, Ally, Fascinate). I flashed the DInc last night using the unrevoked one touch method. Then I installed ROM Manager - paid version. ROM manager thought I still had the Ally so I went ahead and flashed the CWM recovery image included with ROM Manager and I think that caused a problem. Things just weren't working right so I searched the forum and found an image that I had to rename, put on the root of the SD card and then flash.
After doing that I was then able to flash the Skyraider ROM that I downloaded in ROM Manager. What I'm really looking for is a ROM with a Vanilla dialer so I tried flashing Cyanogen's 6.0.2 from ROM Manager. It downloaded but hangs at the HTC Incredible screen on bootup. Thought there may be an issue with the flash so I downloaded and installed it manually and it still hung at the boot up screen. I thought it was a problem with the cyanogen ROM so I gave up but I just tried another and am having the same problem. I flashed the MIUI ROM manually and it booted up the same screen and hung there as well. What am I doing wrong?
Been trying and trying to get custom rom but always stuck at reboot after the usual 'pink arrow-circle' with vibrate. tried wiping options and installing the radios for the roms... story so far....
-started on t-mob desire
-used Lekky's droid den hboot0.8 guide and rooted without goldcard
-confirmed rooted by installing shootme and autokiller apps which shows on superuser permissions.
-went for the defost 3.0b rom and suggested radio and followed Lekky's install custom rom guide.
-used rom manager and flashed
-reboot... got the usual 'pink arrow-circle' with vibrate and then the four colour turning into 'X' animation that never stopped
-after doing some googling... pulled battery and nanroid restored back
-made a new 1gb goldcard using the goldcard tool on this forum, checked all directories are present before trying again
-tried flashing using the recovery menu + wipes
-tried flashing r8 modaco instead but again stuck after the splash screen
I have a Asus Transformer TF701. I was using it and it was out of power. So I plugged it in and now it is stuck at boot up.Even if I force it to shutdown (long press power button) it again starts and gets stuck at boot up.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid boot modes.I have searched but couldn't get concrete reference.
1) What are the different boot modes of Android?
a) Normal Power up.
b) Recovery Mode
c) Download Mode
i) Fastboot
ii) AP Fastboot
iii) BP SBF Flash
iv) BP Only
v) BP HW Diag & Boot AP
vi) BP Tools
2) What is the difference between these modes?
I think "recovery mode" clears cache, takes "update" from sdcard.But in "Download mode", we can use fastboot protocol to "Flash" the device.
