Does anyone know if there is a way to add a personal message to the bootanimation, so i could put my phone number, in case i lose my phone?
I figured out a way that looks like it should be possible, but i havent tested:
in /system>media, there is a zip file called bootanimation.zip. inside are a whole lot of images, which going through quickly or in a fast slide show makes the bootanimation. my thought is that if one were to edit those pictures, say using paint, then the bootanimatin would now include your personal message. you would have to make the exact same edit in each picture, but i think it might work. anyone willing to try it out? if you do, please post your results!
Yes, that would work.

I'm guessing lol, but it would take like 10 minutes to try it out and see. If I get a minute later I'll try it and report.

i'm just worried that if i meddle with the zip, i might get a bootloop or some other issue, and i dont have the patience to backup, stock rom-ify, re flash my rom, and restore the backup! :laugh:

GPS not locking on any sats
I'm sorry if this has been asked, I did try searching but couldn't find that there was a fix.
Thanks for any that is willing to help.

Ok sorry, I got it it lock within 30 seconds to 1min by replacing the gps.conf file from a thread found through a fix for my G2X and it seems to be working for now indoors and out. I guess we'll see how this goes over.

Be glad the gas isn't locking on, I ate spicy last night. Wait, what?
gps.conf ? Could you link this thread? I haven't had any problems with the GPS on my DS7 but it is a little slow it seems.. Almost every time I use the built-in GPS it's about a minute, doesn't seem like it's keeping fresh ephemeris data or something.

what system are you using and where is this gps.conf file?
I am running the honeystreak 2.0R1 and used the file found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1085354
You can unzip the file you need and copy/paste it to /system/etc but I would make a backup of the one in there before doing this. I get a lock within 30 seconds.

Just use FasterFix in the market, you can pick which region you're in. But first off, look at /system/etc/gps.conf, if it's already set to your region and it looks right don't mess with it. My Nexus One was what I expect, and the DS7 is slightly different. Worth a shot I guess.
But again, I'd do it from the market app, less likely to make a typo.

There is no need to edit the file all your doing is replacing it. With the one with your correct region. If the app from the market works that's great. I perfer to edit or replace my files manually so that I know I have a backup incase I need to restore.

Yay! Thank you crawjr. You've been doing an awful lot around here man. Good works.
I think this really aught to go into the development section, it would get more attention and I think it fits the classification.
*internet forum high five*
Thanks much! Samsung gives us a menu option of what log we want to narrow it down to but only as a radial button to pick one. I wish they would make it a checkbox option and the ability to pick multiple logs to show at the same time. That way people could customize for what THEY want to see.

I linked to the wrong one. Its deodexed.
I am experiencing the same issue with force closes when using SMS. I am running
[Odin]Stock EH06 Deodexed with CWM 3.1.0.1/Root/Busybox 1.19/Working Browser and
[MOD]EH06/EG22/themed_8_lockscreens/StatusBar[MOD][Maddoggin][UPDATE 8/16/11] and [Hack] [EH06] [DEODEX]AIO MOD
Is there any way to REMOVE this fix? I'd rather have the SMSs in the log than have the FCs every time I hit the menu button.
And it did wipe out all of my logs when I flashed it.
I'm fully prepared to just ODIN EH06 again, but it would be nice if I didn't have to.
Of course I didn't do a backup before flashing this file.

Since I hadn't done that much, I just used ODIN and started fresh.
I'm debating trying it again, because that phone log including SMS is really annoying. But so far, it's the only thing not working right for me.

Which 8 lock mod are you using? I had the problem with the clean blue version and I tried Shanes version from honeycomb and it still did it. Doesn't happen with his theme and I don't recall it happening on the stock version of 8 lock.

I'm using the mod for STOCK EH06-- EH06_stock_locks.zip
I thought that was the one I had to use, since there is no theme installed. But I'm realizing that if I had used another one, it would have installed that theme... correct?
I then flashed the AIO mod over that. So I still look kind of stock. Except for the themed GoLauncherEX.
Which I'm very pleased to say has working Gmail notifications, since the Stock ROM had Gmail 3.4.1.5 installed and I haven't updated to 3.5!! Yay me.

I'm having the same issue (almost). I'm using the stock deodexed verson from the link you posted. After flashing it, the dialer FC's when I try to open the logs tab. I'm totally stock minus bloatware with no mods or themes.
Have you been able to out what might be causing this? Or a work around? I found people with the same issue with eg22 but nothing about a fix.
Logs Provider Fix for EH17!!
Will prevent SMS\MMS from showing up in the call logs...
You don't need to clear your logs, but any existing messages will remain there after you're done flashing.
Here's the link:

Not sure how it did that... It's just a smali edit in the LogsProvider.apk No additional files.
I tried something... If you want to test out again and let me know how it goes, it'd be a big help.

Great Rom, but a few glithes
Hi,
I used the 12.12.12 build for one full day and I must say that the rom is fast and smooth.
There are 2 things that bother me at the moment:
1. ringtone rings only once and will not loop. I tried most from the list. I now use a looong music as ringtone and temporarily "solve" the problem;
2. cannot sync exchange mail...just showing "Waiting for sync" screen forever. I am sure I have the right settings. Gmail is fine though.
I performed a FULL WIPE before installing the rom. Am I missing something here?
Edit: I didn't have these issues in PA.
Thanks.

I've been using PAC mostly but have tried them all. I can only test during the evenings though, I go back to my daily while my daughter is awake for the video capabilities. I've been spoiled by the HQ camera mod. Hopefully 1080p recording will get sorted out (patiently waiting) and I'll be on board full time...then maybe a few changes to the media_profiles.xml will make the camera perfect.
Thanks for all the work so far though I am impressed with everyone's efforts.

If your ringtones are mp3 files they might not loop....I've found ogg ringtones to work fine though.

ASAP? Cause the conversation you're having in that text is so important? Please don't PM me asking to look at something ASAP, especially when it's something as trivial as that.
Next time I have PAC flashed, I'll look at it, and I'll let you know. I know that I've gotten MMS in all my builds, and not once has the pic overlapped the text like that - so I would assume it's something local on your device. I won't be able to tell 100% til I have PAC flashed though. I'll flash it ASAP...
Also, in forums like this, if someone has an answer, they'll answer you. If they don't know, instead of posting a useless "I don't know" post, they don't answer. I saw this earlier, and once I had an answer I fully planned on providing it. Instead, I was forced to issue this reply.

I just flashed and tested, and saw the same as you. I tried a couple of things with no success, so I may have to look into it a little deeper. Just curious, have you tried a 3rd party messaging app like handcent or gosms? Do they behave the same way?
I just flashed back to AOKP and the same thing is happening. Maybe I hadn't received any MMS before, I could have sworn I had. I'll flash CM later and see if it's doing it too, at least that will tell me if it's something I introduced or something else that's going on.
Another thought I had - try playing with the DPI for the Messaging app, see if you can adjust it to a suitable level. It looks like a bunch of things overlap - leading me to think there might be an issue with an overlay somewhere..
Thanks but nope I've tried so much in the messaging settings I've messed with the looks colors backgrounds everything and still nothing I'll try go sms
Edit---- go SMS worked flawlessly

Yes, that is a good possible solution but also one I try to put off. Re installing and re configuring is an ordeal. I also cannot recount the number of times I went that route and the problem persisted. That's why I post here first. That said, it might be the only option left now. Thanks.
