[Q] Removing CRT On Animation - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Hey all.
I recalled seeing a thread about the CRT On animation causing the phone to be unresponsive / slow when pressing the Power button. I also feel that this seems to slow down the phone a bit.
Is there a way to keep the off animation, while removing the on animation? I know that builds before KH2 don't have the on animation, so is it possible to just rip a file out of them and overwrite it in my current ROM?
Thanks!

Download spare parts and do window animation to fast

I just tried that, but that only seems to improve the speed the screen unlocks. I want to remove the CRT On animation, because it seems like it's slowing down my phone when I press the power button.
Applying those animations do give a good illusion of speed during regular use though.

I was just wondering the same thing. I like the CRT Off animation, but not the On animation.

The Final Valhalla ROM has on/off toggles for the CRT effects. It's also a badass ROM in itself and I would recommend to anyone not already using it.

No screen off animation in CM7

Just finished installing CM7 and realized I dont get the cool screen off animation. I do have it checked in the CM settings. The odd thing is I flashed CM7 the other day before going to a different ROM and I did have the screen off animation. Any ideas why this could be happening?

Did you wipe data/dalvik before switching back to CM7?
I found out that if you turn the animations to 'fast' in spare parts, you wont get that cool animation.. try turning it to normal ^_^
Yep, works

Thanks for this. Was wondering why it didn't work.
If you turn "Window Animations" to normal, you can get screen off animation working.
You must turn "Transition Animations" to normal as well to get screen on animation working.

Lock wallpaper

Anyone having issues changing your lock screen wallpaper? I'm running Synergy r55 and anytime I try to change the lock screen wallpaper it says SecWallpaperChooser has stopped? I don't think it's a ROM thing cause I couldn't change it before th eroot/unlock/ROM. It didn't crash before though it process like it was going to change but wouldn't.
The other weird thing is I flashed CleanROM and it changed to the default lockscreen wallpaper it has???? WTH

I dunno if this has anything to do with your problem, but if I try to change my wallpapers any way except going into system settings>wallpaper it get's screwy. I'm also running Synergy.
Try doing it that way to see if it makes any difference, as opposed to long pressing the homescreen etc..

That was the way I was trying and it was failing, but since the flash to r60 it works...

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10 crt lock animation works sometimes. Help?

I really like the crt lock animation, I got cyanogenmod and it never worked for me. I though "oh whatever" and carried on. Today I locked it after doing something and the crt lock animation worked and played. I tried it and out of 20 times it worked 8 times. How can I get it to work every time?

Wait until they fix it. Seems to be a race condition between the animation and display off...i.e. the animation plays every time, but you only see it sometimes. Probably should have posted in the CM thread.

Its more general than that, It seems to be happening with any cm10/jb based rom I've tried. It generally works if you have an app open and hit the power button, but if you're just sitting on the homescreen it blacks out instead of doing the crt.
wifi on = crt animation

Don't know if i have ever posted on this forum. but i did have a login. surprised myself.
anyway....i noticed that the crt animation wasnt working for me either. i found this thread and worked thru the suggestion of application open. so i opened facebook and it took forever to load. i noticed i had my wifi off...hence the long load time for FB. i turned the wifi on and the crt animation worked again. turned wifi off.....no crt animation. this was/is the case repeatedly, regardless of app open or sitting at homescreen.
so for my situation:
wifi on = crt animation
wifi off = no crt animation

It has been fixed for some time. Using the latest nightly, I get the animation every time.

Droid Ultra Screen Flickering / Refreshing

Hey guys. I'm having an odd problem. I'm not sure what the proper terminology would be to describe it but my screen randomly "flickers?" or "refreshes?" itself. It's pretty similar to the effect you get when you click on a link within an app and it does a Window Transition to either a website, opens a new app, etc. It is doing this without being triggered by any user interaction. I can be within an app or looking at my home screen (not touching the screen at all) and it will do this transition animation thing with the result being itself. Unfortunately, I am unable to recreate the scenario at will. It is completely random. Sometimes happening within minutes of itself and other times it will happen hours apart.
It started happening again as I'm typing. Since it looks a window animation, I went into Developer Option and changed "Window Animation Scale", "Transition Animation Scale", and "Animator Duration Scale" all to OFF. It is still doing it but now it just looks different when it does it. It's more like a flash now.
Have any of you experienced this before? If so, were you able to resolve the issue in any way? I apologize if my description isn't that great. If you need more info just let me know. Thanks a head of time for anyone who can offer even just a suggestion.

i think something its wrong in the system, this may sound too heavy for a solution but you should reflash your firmware.

Thanks so much for the response! After a few days of pulling my hair out about this...Would you believe that after I froze "MotorolaOTA" in Titanium Backup (I was tired of getting asked to update to 4.4.4) that I haven't experienced this issue anymore. Not a single flash, flicker, etc. Does that make any bit of sense lol? I can't believe that would cause my device to do that. Of course, it could just be coincidence that it stopped after I froze the OTA reminder. I don't know though, it sure does make it seem like that was the problem.

looking for info on boot animations to clean up our v20 start up.

I came from the note 5 and there were several ROMS and an aroma zip that totally modded the way androids looked just starting up. No Samsung logo. no t mobile. no triangle. I wish i even knew how to start out or who to pass the information along to. To have some overall pleasant experience. There was the boot splash, boot animation, and shutdown animation.

that will all come in due time. The V20 is still very young in terms of how long root as been around. once the kernel gets sorted to get rid of the static people will start caring more about the boot animations. As far as the start up triangle and warning, not sure if that will ever get fixed but I really hope someone figures out how to disable it.
I'm guessing most of these boot issues will slowly be sorted over time.
If you're rooted you can get rid of tmobile video and annoying jingle. Here is stock android boot video and rename poweron.ogg in /system/media/audio/ui

There's an app called BootAnimations you can use. I use the Joker one from there and it looks good.
