[BOOTSCREEN] quietly brilliant

credits to RaiderX303 for putting this on the other forum. he didn't have the bootanimation working and it wasn't signed though, so i just finished that for him.
flash like an update.zip
see post 6 for the animation
i made the one that should have sound (quietly_brilliant_boot.zip) a bit too quiet... so you can really only hear it if your ringer volume is higher than the halfway mark. oops!
edit: okay, i fixed the too quiet issue. it isn't too loud when it goes full volume, but you can still kinda hear it when its at low volume.
SEE BOTTOM OF PAGE 3 FOR BLACK VERSION.

umm.. what is this?

... a bootscreen.

Screenshot plz

Any screen shots of what is looks like...?

This is what the boot screen looks like:

Battery died at work today, when I plugged in and rebooted it.... LOUD noise

hmm... really?
it wasn't loud at all when i did it... that's weird.
sorry bout that guys :/

i edited the boot.mp3 to make it quieter... hopefully its better now!

Just installed and works great. Clean animation and no loud sound. Thanks.

anyway we could get a version with the background black?

Does this work with eclair roms? And does the bootscreen replace the "Hero" Part of the boot, or the "KaguDroid" part?

i doubt it works with eclair roms, but you can give it a shot. and yes, it replaces the 'hero' part of the bootscreen, it just shows the white background and the drawing animation.
as for creating a black background... its possible... but it'd take me quite awhile. i didn't actually make this gif, i just took it from RaiderX, who didn't have the file animations done quite right, if i'm right. its definitely possible to make it a black background, but i'd be editing 78 frames, and it'd take me a pretty long time to do it. considering how busy i am with schoolwork, i probably won't be able to do it till this weekend or next. sorry!

you wouldnt happen to have the orginal gif, so i could edit it?

download either file attached (the signed zips), open them, open system, media, boot, blah blah. there's a gif that says 'boot.gif'. extract it.
there ya go.

Making my HD2 vibrate harder

is it any kind of way to make the phone vibrate harder than it does?

What are you planning on using it for?

im not a ring tone kinda guy so i keep my phone on vibrate...me personally it doesn't vibrate hard enough for me and sometimes i miss my text msgs and phone calls...i took it to a t-mobile store and they told me thats as hard as it could vibrate and it was nothing wrong with it

"missing text msgs" sure.......................
if u want it to vibrate harder for another reason just say so.

naw thats wut it really it is...imma grown man wit no reason to lie...i hate ringtones...my tp2 used to vibrate wayyyyyyy harder than this Hd2

Ha Ha, thats comedy! You beat me to it!

i c yall got jokes on here...boi i get mo butts than ashtrays...but all bull**** aside is it possible?

Longer maybe, harder no.
The difference between software and tweaking vs hardware.
The little motor can only spin as fast as it was designed to.
There are some other sites on the intertubes that cater to your needs

Actually most consider the vibration is too vigorous.

Is it Your girlfriend forcing You to aks for this ?

LOLzzz
Bro use G-Profile to set reminders. If you miss phonecall or message it will remind you about this with vibration that frequently as you wish.

there is an app called Vibro v11 use google

hahahahah
This is just tooooo funnnnny!!!

Too true. I had mine sitting on my table top & couldn't even hear it vibrating there!!! My old Samsung Epix would rattle the **** out of itself on a table top when it vibrated. My HD2 just doesn't have that good vibrate, but with how sick this phone is, I think I can overlook it for now.

Tilting SCreen

Is there any way to disable that annoyng tilting effect og the sense 3??? I don't know why but most of the time I turn on the phone the screen is rotated left or right.

yeah settings then display then auto rotate, turn that off

Maybe I made a wrong question. When you hold the phone on hand and you move it from left to right, objects on screen remain alligned with the floor. It's quite annoyng and it doesn't work as well....

Ha ha that sounds great. It didn't happen with mine

The home screen tilts if I move the phone. I hate thing thing!

any chance of a vid or photo of this? I've never known anything like that before.

from what i gather, he's saying that the software image is staying aligned with the horizon when he moves his phone. so if he tilts his phone at 45 degrees, sense will still be in line with the horizon, where as you or I would need to tilt our heads at 45 degrees to see it aligned properly....get it?

two days ago i tested on the dhd a coocked rom, Rmix i think, that came with sense 3.0. It has the same thing, that I assume is a standard feature of the sense. I cannot believe you don't see it. Try to move the phone from left to right in the home screen: I can see the edge of the clock, in the meteo widget you see the moon or the sun in 3d. At a first sight it's amazing, but now, when i switch on the phone the screen is not aligned.....

Been Testing The New Phone ..

Did you get your new phone ?
I thought I would give it a try ..
Its OK .. Nothing That Great I Think.
However seems everything works lol
Whats Your Thoughts ?
Found a few things I do not like ..
1. Volume Not that great - notifications kinda soft.
In-Call Not that great for a old fart like me.
2. The screen is a tad smaller then the hd2
So everything .. the icons and text are smaller
hard to read ;( Again for us old farts
Like CMY'S res on This ROM WAY better! 240 I think.
Also Because Of This The Keyboard Buttons
Are Soooo Small You Cant Hit The Right Letter!!
( I have Big Fingers! ) Swype Is Even Worse! Dam It!
3. The Screen is not as bright as the hd2 LOL
And Seems Not as Good! As The HD2!
Un-less you crank up the brightness!
4. There is no call history icon ??? FFS
What Really ???
5. The Icon For NEW Text Message is WAY to small!
Open New Messages and there is a icon Upper right
corner .. tiny ****ty Little thing. ( Big Fingers! )
6. There is a Program that comes with called Mirror
The Front Camera Looks Like **** !
However with all that said .. Its Mostly Seems Fast ( Kinda )
And everything I have Tried Seems to work and WIFI calling is nice.
Every program I have installed works well.
What DO you think ?

With all due respect, but did you have to start new thread for that? What about initial thought thread?

I think the moral of the story is to get booked in for sight and hearing test ASAP!

You do realize that the screen size is identical to the HD2 right? Items onscreen appear smaller because of the vastly increased resolution.

ashasaur, i told him exactly that in another post he started, but it seems people don't bother reading these days, only post new threads.

If you hit the settings button you will see call history. Not mention every call activity is log right in the main phone app screen.

Not true.
HD2 screen = 5,6 cm x 9,4 cm
Sensation screen = 5,4 cm x 9,5 cm
I have both phones and have measured the screens on both.

The screen is smaller width ways so it can be a 16:9 aspect ratio, instead of HD2's and Desire HD's, which was 5:4.

why do old farts like you get this kind of phones then ? small icons and textures hahah ur funny

The only thing missing now is an app that kill old peoples farts.
The size of the screen is what it is, but i love it

WarlockW: How about testing the device before you buy it?! For me in this case it seems it's not the phone that's the problem....
Reminds me of a story at a local dealership: An lady in her 60ies came in with a high and device with some problems. The shop owner looked at it for five minutes, than looked at her and said: "It's not ment for old hags like you!" True story!

1. Your ears are clogged from your old age.
2. Your hands are too fat due to low metabolism because of your age, and your eyes are too old and is not as good when you were young.
3. Again, your eyes are way too weary nowadays. I heard they come with age.
4. Your brain is too old to pull out short term memory.
5. Again your fingers are too fat and eyes too old. Age related issues.
6. Uhhhh....When I look at mine a reflection of a gorgeous guy is staring back wrinkle free. You are a tad too old to be using it. They have wrinkle creams and surgeries nowadays....They can certainly help you.

I see 'respect your elders' never was beaten into an idiot like you...
The volume IS low vs the HD2, the screen is narrower and harder to type on and see, and the front camera does have a crappy resolution. Those are facts, and he was merely pointing them out. You just had to be the arrogant ass that had to post to make himself "look cool."

Lockscreen Response FIX!

So I have been reading on all the "problems" that this device has, and I've stayed pretty quiet about all the griping over minor things. (coming from the Vibrant and the G2X makes me pretty resilient to "bugs".
Sadly no one ever really talked about how it is a software problem. Everyone wanted it to be hardware related even though the touchscreen works for every other app.
(hops off soapbox)
Here's the fix, it's quite simple.
1) go to HTC hub and download a new theme (mine was music lover)
2) apply the theme
3) reboot phone
4) pull the ring to unlock
5) go back to XDA and hit the thanks button

I've replaced mine so I don't have it right now.
Unresponsiveness is not just lockscreen issue. It was effecting every apps on mine. I couldn't type, get carousel effect etc. Does this solve all of these?

Looks like you didn't read carrefully As I said I've replaced mine so I don't have this issue on my new device. That means I can't test this.

I never had unresponsiveness in any other app. Maybe I just got a perfect Sensation... well almost perfect (s-on)

Mine is so damn responsive, sometimes when I scroll the application drawer a little bit it opens an application

I saw the 'unresonponsive' threads, and was somehwat amused, since my screen appears to behave normally...but for the heck of it, I tried the carousel, and could NOT get it to rotate fast AT ALL! Other regular nav/touches worked fine. I just tried this 'fix', and can now get fast rotation on carousel easily! It was worth clearing defaults (LancherPro) and playing with it to get this 'fix' working. Now, back to LPro!

Can you just apply one of the themes already on the phone? busted did not work, no thanks here. Just dloaded and installed music lover, no go. Who said the problem works in every other app? mine does not. Anywhere you try to swipe/scroll. home screens, contacts, pictures, LOCK RING, fruit ninja.. registers as a touch( a lot of touches) instead of a swipe. I dont think a software update will fix it. If it would then it should work when i restore phone to factory defaults, it does not, yet it worked fine at those same settings when it was new.

That is the problem! lol that is NON responsive. Swipes are not registering as swipes, instead registers as a tap. Thats why an app opens. I open an app almost every time i try to scroll through the app drawer. NOT how it should be.

Ok let me be positive and see if that helps. brb.. Nope, still no carousel. All i did was inform you that what you think is actually good, is in fact one of the issues. Our sensations should not be opening apps when swiping. My evo didnt, my N1 didnt, my iphone didnt, but the newest latest and greatest device does. I have a right to be negative. Sorry if i offended you.
