[Q] Which is worse, broken CRT or screen-off flash? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry, there is no need for this poll.
The issue is that the fix for broken crt animation causes the screen-off flash on amoled.
Edit: fixed

Crt is the animation that looks like the old tv? Please do not fix and make sure the screen does not flash. That's really annoying!

[REQ][Animation] Gingerbread/CRT style animations

I'm sure everyone has by now seen the cool animation that Gingerbread uses when the screen is turned off. What if the same animation was played in reverse when turning the screen on? Is such a thing even possible? To me it does seem a bit strange that this animation is only played when turning the screen off, because real CRT's used to do the same thing both when turning on and turning off.
If it is possible, I'd love to see it implemented. Further on down the line as an added bonus, I also think it'd be cool to replace the animation for launching or closing an app with a CRT style flicker, similar to what happened when you changed the channel on an old TV.
Edit: Looks like most custom ROMs are already way ahead of me for the screen on animation. Good work!
This is on CM7...
(except its really not as good as you'd think)

LeoGinger v0.8.4 has this implemented for both screen OFF and screen ON animations. Here is the link for ROM if you want to flash it and check it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10518585&postcount=1
Okay, that's cool that CM7 has it. What about other CRT style animations for the transitions? Something similar to the Pip Boy 3000 from Fallout 3 would be awesome.

[BUG] No CRT Lock animation if "Window Transition" in Spare Parts is "Fast"

[BUG] No CRT Lock animation if "Window Transition" in Spare Parts is "Fast"
I don't think I can be much more clear than the title. I just installed Apex 6.4, and went to change the speed of the phone's animations to how I like them using the Spare Parts app. Now, I can set the Transition Animation to however I like with no ill effects. However, changing the "Window Animation" causes the CRT-Off animation to stop working whenever you lock the phone.
I realize this is a terribly minor issue, but I didn't find the Spare Parts thread, and I apologize if this is in the wrong section
and the screen on effect will be affected by the transition speed.....

Your problem is that the animation for screen off only works at one speed. If you change the speed it no longer will work right. That app was made before the animation was added so it might not work with it. So you can either leave them or lose the screen off.
I changed the speeds to "fast" and lost the animation.
I wondered how i lost that feature. Thanks!

[REQUEST] Old TV screen on off animation for lock screen

Hi all, Do any one have old tv ot TV animation for lock scree.
Like it will show TV animation while locking your screen.
i've looked into what i think your asking about "like the animation of a tv turning off when you lock your screen (like the nexus)" anyway the closest ive been able to find is a down animation that does the green andro gears then a staticy screen which turns off like a tv... i found it on youtube... searched htc sensation down animations....
Did you mean CRT animation?Try to search it in the Development thread.
No..I am talking about when you lock your screen you get tv animation...that i want.

Does CRT animation hinder or have any effect on the battery life of the phone?

[Q] B5330 CRT Animation

I did some mod to a phone (Galaxy Chat B5330) which is a crt mod.
I know I did it good enough.. just modifying the framework-res.apk
My problem is.. is the phone not really rendering the effect?
The screen just disappears (without any fade effects or crt). I guess in that case I have modded framework-res perfectly.
Transition/Window animations are already set to 1x
Another thing, there's not too much about gpu on build.prop. I can't even find #debug.sf.hw. Even so, that line should still work if it doesn't have a comment (in the case of my s duos)
Is this phone supports the crt effect?
thank you!

[Q] CRT Animation

Well this seems like an odd problem I'm having. The CRT animation that is displayed when you turn off the screen is sort of broken. What do I mean? It seems a lot less fluid. I'm running Cataclysm and I can confirm that CRT is definitely on, but the animation is either skipping a lot of frames or incredibly sped up for some reason. Any possible reasons or solutions?
Thanks in advanced.
