[Q]CRT turn off on eclair - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi my friend dont want to change eclair and he wants CRT animation is this possible
If yes just tell me what files are and i will make update.zip
thanks

Nah it's impossible. AFAIK, the code is hidden deep within the GingerBread system files. Your friend must either install FroyoBread or a GingerBread ROM.

Unfortunately, only Motorola can do this by either releasing a 2.2 update or unlocking the bootloader.
You aren't alone, a lot of people are in the same boat.
At least we have root/overclock etc!

Im OT but ..
actually it shoudl be at least we have
pseudo root ( witch basically ONLY allows us to theme and mod sytsem files) and Overclock , there is no ETC unfortunately ..
but yea cant wait to have Flash running . maybe someoen will succeed at porting a pseudo rom of froyo .. who knows ?
How about flash_for_21.apk?
I heard that someone hacked it for HTC EVO but it may not work with MS.
Anyone tried with it?

We have full root. We dont have an unlocked bootloader.

This only works for devices with Flash Lite 3.1 already installed. It replaces Flash Lite with Flash 10.1.

Htere is n o pseudo, root is root, means root privilages. Means we can do whatever we want with system folder. What we can't do is boot another kernel, so only custom roms on same kernel allowed, means no froyo for example. But someone could maky Cryogen ROM but using this kernel, that would mean quite some work.

Actually, No.
We can boot a kernel, Sort of, Inside the current kernel (Kexec)
We can't write anything past the bootloader. Nothing. We have to do everything during runtime.

flash lite, doesnt work on the milestone, its linked in by code with the HTC browser and well i manged to get the APk for flash lite or (hero flash) but it doenst actually work.
unless anyones knowlegable on how to edit the browser i cant see it being available.
but saying that it cannot be that easy, ive had dolphin HD, which states that it is very very flash friendly, and neither apk will allow the flash to work.

Seriously? This is turning into the 'ask the same questiln without reading answers' thread.
Milestone can'T have Flash 10 because of the locked bootloader.
The download people have that works on 2.1 with Sense UI, which isn't native on milestone. Use lite.

Yep. I've easily installed Flash 10.1, but as already mentioned it doesn't help. The problem is that the browser itself doesn't support Flash plugin.

[Q] Best ROM to Flash?

Just wondering but which custom ROM do you all suggesting flashing? I flashed CM6 stable yesterday but it didn't have the Market preinstalled so I'd prefer to use a different ROM. Thanks!

Market preinstalled? Is it so hard to download and apply Google Apps?
Try FroyoMOD 2.6.1b, Google Apps are preinstalled there...
Sorry I'm a noob haha not really sure how to push apps through adb.
Do you have Androidiani Open Recovery? There is a link in CM threads that leads to Google Apps(if CM7, download CM7 HDPI, if CM6, download CM6 HDPI). They are in .zip file, and all you need to do is to put it in /sdcard/openrecovery/updates, reboot in recovery, go to Apply update and choose gapps-yes. And reboot. Simple is that x).
Oh okay thanks a lot!

I'd think you will hardly find a rom that has market (gapps) preinstalled. I think it has something to do with licensing issues.
So:
making a rom without market(gapps) is ok,
making a rom with market(gapps) gets you into trouble.
Thats why you have to go through the hassel of applying the gapps.

Oh by the way, what if I'm using Clockworkmod Recovery? Under which folder should I put the CM6 HDPI .zip file then?
If you use CR on a Milestone, be prepared to start everything over again from 0.
Was there something wrong with the method that worked when you installed CM6 or do you enjoy making life difficult?

Which CM7 Rom should i flash?

Hi all
I'm interested in trying out cyonagenmod, but i have no idea which rom to flash.
I thought i would just try the latest nightly build, found here -
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=galaxysmtd
but then found this -
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/24052-cyanogenmod-7-for-the-samsung-galaxy-s-v710-rc1-26-june-2011/
Which looks almost more official, like it might be more stable, but i have no idea. there is no description on how it differs to a nightly rom.
Which one should i try? Hope you can help.
You should flash the latest nightly, but remember the Nightly #82, need a Gingerbread Bootloader to the best work

Not just any ROM, it must include the bootloader. that means the PDA-file (.tar or .tar.md5) must contain boot.bin and Sbl.bin
check the ones marked with Sbl here
I prefer this thread with bootloaders flashable to odin.

You putting your bootloader in PDA, dont tick re-partition

[Q]Cyanogenmod 7.1

should i install a froyo rom before i flash cyanogenmod 7.1???
No, cm 7.1 works better when your install base is Samsung gingerbread because of the bootloaders.
P.S. you don't need to create a topic when there is already thread for Q&A regarding CM7

okay i tried to install it on jvs 2.3.5 now the phone shows cyanogenmod icon and keeps rebooting :S

The very same thread u're referring to says one needs to running rooted Eclair/Froyo Bootloader.
My question is, Do i really need to Downgrade to Froyo if I'm already on stock Gingerbread?
and also, How would we know if Gingerbread bootloader becomes "safe" in future, if ever?

No need to downgrade, GB bootloaders are safe.
In the early(er) CM7 days Froyo bootloaders were needed for CM, for the last couple of months both bootloaders are supported, and GB bootloaders are preferred because of lower batt drain.
If needed you can always go back to Froyo bootloaders using Odinn/Heimdall.

Can't find a source stating this, but i'm running CM7 with GB Bootloaders. Only risk you were running installing CM7 on GB was that your external SD-Card wouldn't be recognized, and there was a Loadscreen glitch when the phone booted.
Those issues was fixed a couple months ago, so there is no problem flashing CM7 over GB Bootloaders.

[Q] Need a better unrooted ROM

HI Friends,
I was using custom roms before, but now i have reverted back to LG ROM v20G(india) android 2.3.4.
Since, i was not able to install some applications(for my office email and communicator) due to rooted device error, so i reverted back to LG ROM.
But after installing few applications my mobile became very slow, every time i have to clean RAM using task manager.
Is there a better ROM(unrooted ROM) suggestion ?
Thanks in advance.

No way... Except for removing them before even flashing the ROM. But I think you are a bit wrong though. What ROM did you use before? I mean, while you were rooted? And what apps exactly havent you been able to install? Sounds strange to me...

Bcz of this i was unable to configure the MS Exchange email and Microsoft Lync 2010 apps(bcz they are dependent on zenprise to get my enterprise server details).
Now i have reverted to LG stock ROM v20G and able to configure everything successfully and all are working.
But my mobile becoming damn slow, and it is showing only 23 mb RAM is free. :crying:

Hmm maybe you could still use Zeus ROM, but with a minor change in kernel, that is to change
ro.secure=0 to ro.secure=1 in ramdisk. This will pretend, the cell is still unrooted and thus everything should install just fine. Though you might get some problems with some apps, that need root.
Can some1 upload a flashable zip of this, since I dont really have time currently? Just decompile the boot.img with dsixda's android kitchen, change that line and recompile it. Flash and your done

Did you already try a rooted stock ROM, which has to be flashed via Smartflash? It's quite simple, since there also is a video guide (check my how to, post #3 includes the link to the thread with the video). Then you ll have root, but kernel will still state ro.secure=1. So you can almost do everything you want, but the phone will still think, it's still unrooted. Just pick the same version as you already have in kdz format (e.g. v20n, v20O, v20s,...) extract it with the tool mentioned, inject cwm, flash superuser.apk, dont wipe anything and you ll have root and all your data still. If it still detects the phone as rooted then, you ll have to go back to stock and reinstall everything, but it's still worth a try Then you can uninstall all LG crap apps and will have more free ram. Or you wait for anyone to provide an unrooted ROM with all unnecessary apps removed and maybe some tweaks enabled

It will probably still be recognized as rooted, because the kernel will still state: ro.secure=0, which equals a rooted device. Of course, I dont really know, how this app detects, if the phone is rooted. It might also be the superuser.apk, but I dont really think so...

There is two ways. Look at ro.secure or call /bin/su and see if it works.If a app only wants to check and not ask for permissions then I think they'll look at ro.secure
