Hi everyone im new here to XDA and just got a quick question
I flashed Cyanogen 4.0.4 rom and everything works amazing!
only odd problem I have is that when I lock screen I see Rogers (operator name)
twice! really odd....
example
ROGERS
ROGERS<-----------this one never changes
-----------
Time/Date
some help with this would be greatly appreciated!
guess no ones gives a flying F***.....thanks...
ill try another rom then....
I dont want to sound like a mean idiot but, youre gonna try a new rom just because of that? How often do you study your lockscreen? If your gonna change roms just flash again id say and see what happens

Maybe it's because no one that viewed the thread knew that answer to the question?! This isn't £3/minute tech support, people are volunteering their free time to help others...
Some people.. *sigh*
I reflashed it and it didnt help...
im currently using xROM [v1.4r3], works like a charm!
its funny how people only respond to negative things....phhhftt

If I knew a solution I would have told you, regardless of whether you were being an ass or not. Just saying, no reason to get pissed off because no one that's seen the thread knows the answer...

Honestly I had the same issue on my phone. I flashed 2 other phones the exact same way and they did not have the same issue. Pisses me off. Its the reason I moved to Hero ROMs that don't give me the issue.
As outlined by Droid dev Steven Bird: http://stevenbird.info/2010/07/10/the-droidx-security-and-discovery/
I know absolutely nothing about Android development, but here's hoping that another dev here can make sense of it.
I love the confidence.

An "efuse" hardware chip? Wow Motorola!
I like the screen of the droid x, I like the size, but there is no way I could in good conscience buy this phone. Motorola has just slapped the dev community in the face.
Even Iphone doesn't have this BS , i guess Motorola one upped apple by kicking customers twice in the balls.
couldn't they run into some legal issues with this efuse method?
what about women?

What we need to do is setup a site called "WeWant2RootDroidX.com" and make all tech blogs in the world link to it.
Well, just an idea.

The Droid X is already rooted though. The bootloader is what everyone is concerned about.

Link to news of root?
http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2010...-the-droid-x-may-not-lead-to-a-bricked-phone/
Apparently the original Droid has the same "eFuse". I think we need to reserve judgement until we find out if Moto is utilizing it or not. Just because it's there doesn't mean it's in use.
I was about to say the same thing, this chip is nothing new and doesn't stop you from rooting, get real, they even advertised the ability to root this phone in their ads

I don't know if I've seen an ad talking about root, but...
I talked to a device tester today and apparently there is something VERY different about the Droid X bootloader. They had VERY specific instructions from Moto that if the bootloader (MBM) didn't match exactly what they required to send the phone back to have the MBM updated. If it wasn't it would corrupt the phone.
Not sure if this is the same as the "eFuse", but should be interesting to see what happens the first time someone tries to mess with the bootloader.
Sorry for any misunderstanding. I dont have anything that works.

I have an X and rooting files(I wont say what they are) ready to go, but you know what? Im not gonna be the first person to try this. Im sure someone out there will take the leap off of the proverbial cliff for us. Lets just hope moto didnt cut that persons parachute strings!

I was wondering if anybody could please make a DBZ boot animation? Ive been trying to create one following the steps on youtube but they never seem to work properly. Lol call it the inner child in me, but dam dbz used to be my favorite show back in the day. If someone could do this i would really appreciate and i know a lot of others would probably to. Here is a link to a gif a whole site with tons of dbz gifs.

I think it'd be funny if someone took this one and, in the end where he's just standing there, replace him with the Android Mascot.
ROFL!!! That would be pretty funny. XD

I +1 this topic cuz I'd like to see something like this.
at least with a little android branding.
DISCLAIMER!
I DID NOT BREAK YOUR PHONE. You did. You chose to flash this. You chose to read this. You chose to follow my instructions. Erego, You broke your phone. Why? Because you chose to skip ahead a step, not read correctly or maybe even ignore a step altogether. When it all boils down to it, I am not liable for any of the mistakes you make, break or fake to get you a new phone. All i can say is, if you come at me with allegations and grief, you will get nothing but laughter.
On that note, i recommend buying phones from Best Buy and pre-paying for Black Tie Protection. They replace phones that have been bricked or whatever...even if you caused it or flashed something wrong...they have even replaces 3 of my Thunderbolts during trial and error tests.
I have made a couple boot animations for now. I always do my best to make them high quality and work properly.
If there is something i cannot do, I will tell you! Otherwise, take a look at some of the stuff ive made, submit a request for what you'd like, and ill see what i can do!
And of course, you can feel free to use the ones ive made! Just show thanks and let them know who made it!
Note: I do not know how to upload these animations in the form of a .gif to display them. If you know how, please let me know via PM or something. Also, if the links do not work for downloading from this/these descriptions, i will always attempt to include them in new posts or at the bottom.

Big thanks to ZiggSeVo for this Star Wars: The Old Republic boot animation. He made it for the Epic 4g, I am modifying it for Thunderbolt users! (Yes, the gears one is coming too)

hi I appreciate you offering to put together some custom boot animations. I feel like a very good one would be the .gif of Sam Jackson just staring at you from the movie "black snake moan" shouldn't be too many frames to do either. If you know how to do the sound you could have Sam's. "say what one more time"
let me know what you think.
thanks.
Are you only making boot animations out of videos, or are you able to make custom ones from scratch?
Would love to see a gears of war one similar to the epic 4G one... I've tried to use and no avail with sound would be cool too.

For now, Only out of videos. I am reading up a little bit during my free time on how to use Adobe after effects and stuff. Ill announce when i feel comfortable enough to make some from scratch. Though i am certain those would be VERY much harder, longer and tedious to make and perfect correctly.

Ill get on it. Though the sound doesn't really have much to do with that part...maybe like crickets or something, since he's giving the "not amused" stare.
Here's a Link to Android central where I found the boot maybe a way to combine both versions or just do both if not too much trouble. Thank you in advance

I found it ahigginotham, and ill start messing with it as soon as i get my Dawn of the Dead one working...going to be my best yet.
TURN DOWN YOUR VOLUME BEFORE PRESSING PLAY.
Having this as a boot animation would be SICK. Ive yet to find anyone that has been able to recreate it. Id like the sound and all. I even contacted the creator and asked if he would be able to do it and he said he didnt know how. lol.

That is the problem. You want to do things that you don't fully understand. Anytime you try to flash something there is a chance it will brick a device, no matter how many others haven't had that problem.
Read up on it and if you feel comfortable then do it.
And it is "know not no"

That's what i meant. Several experienced users hard bricked their phones. You no what I mean?
know verb (used with object), knew, known, know·ing.
1. to perceive or understand as fact or truth; to apprehend clearly and with certainty: I know the situation fully.
2. to have established or fixed in the mind or memory: to know a poem by heart; Do you know the way to the park from here?
3. to be cognizant or aware of: I know it.
4. be acquainted with (a thing, place, person, etc.), as by sight, experience, or report: to know the mayor.
5. to understand from experience or attainment (usually followed by how before an infinitive): to know how to make gingerbread.
no
1. (a negative used to express dissent, denial, or refusal, as in response to a question or request)
2. (used to emphasize or introduce a negative statement): Not a single person came to the party, no, not a one.
3. not in any degree or manner; not at all (used with a comparative): He is no better.
4. not a (used before an adjective to convey the opposite of the adjective's meaning): His recovery was no small miracle.

How about this... since you seem to be unable to read and search and learn for yourself, just box up your phone, send it to someone like Gotroot, Koush, or any of the other devs and ask them to do it for you...
OR.... you could bop over to the development section and freaking READ FOR YOURSELF and find out what is available.....
