skssha 8 Report post Posted June 3, 2011 Looks like many of us want to know about fm radio in epic. I was searching in google and read somewhere that fm in samsung vibrant, epic, captivate, fascinate is locked by software. Is it true? Even for rooted phones? Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk This FM radio software is included in a Gingerbread rom posted in xda. By installing that rom you can get FM, but it's not working properly sivashankkar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SantoshRoyal 16 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 Parin bhai makes my day today. Two months earlier my Epic's goes completely dark after a fall. I can say although Epic has gorilla glass on it, but survival of lcd is still on your luck. It can avoid scratches efficiently. Then I asked Hetal bhai what to do now. he gave me a link of ebay from where I can take a new screen. I tried to purchase, but next day I got a full refund and a message from seller, that product is not working fine so We have cancelled your order. :confuse: Then few days earlier I asked Parin to help me on this issue and wholla he arranged one original screen with keypad within 10 days. I also took extra spare of battery for epic from him. Today my epic is back on it's role after two months of darkness. :GirandoOjos: Many-many thanks to Parin and Hetal for help. :signthankspin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 I am trying to do a Reliance boot animation for 480x800 and need the pngs edited. I do not have much expertise so any help would be welcome. Please could someone with photoshop knowledge edit the attached png files to replace SyndicateROM text with Reliance logo http://www.techshout.com/images/reliance-logo-p.jpg . Ensure the font is Precious Sans Book and the font color, brightness, etc. is same as the SyndicateROM text. If anyone wants to try out the existing boot animation, download from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14432798&postcount=21. Copy it into SDcard then using root explorer copy it into /system/media. Rename existing bootanimation.zip in /system/media to bootanimation.zip.bak before doing the changes.

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Reliance logo bootanimation - Noir This and the below animation should work for all 480x800 resolution devices, not just limited to Epic. Please test and mention your device name to me via PM and I will update these posts. Here is my first bootanimation attempt with the Reliance logo. This has been tested and is working on Epic 2.2 Syndicate Frozen ROM but should work for all custom ROMs (stock ROMs do not have deodexed kernels so would not work). As always keep a nandroid. Instructions: Copy bootanimation.zip to SD card. Use root explorer to copy bootanimation.zip to /system/media (this is for galaxy S phones, HTC possibly uses /data/local please check). Ensure mode is R/W. Overwrite the existing bootanimation.zip. If required rename it to bootanimation.zip.bak. Reboot. Please give your comments. Thanks.

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted June 9, 2011 Thanks for the comment Tarun, yes these are basic because they have been done manually with pngs. The better way to do it is creating animation on Flash and then exporting to pngs, but I do not know Flash. Would be willing to try if someone can give me Flash software and serial. For non reliance logo animations, go to XDA e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033274. Ankur, thanks will check if it can be made into bootanimation.zip. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted June 12, 2011 ^ Sorry Ankur for the delay have attached, it is looping fast will need to read how to fix. You yourself can try editing the desc.txt. 480 800 15 - 480 800 is resolution, 15 is frames/sec p 0 3 part0 - p starts the loop, 0 means infinite loop, 3 means pause of 3 sec between frames, part0 means folder name - there must be one empty line at end Edit desc.txt only in notepad++ and in UNIX ANSI mode. When saving the .zip file use 7zip and use store no compression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abhi.r 95 Report post Posted June 13, 2011 Installed Syndicate Frozen Rom 1.1.1 installed Syndicate Frozen Rom 1.1.1 after spending hours backing up apps and contacts and linking all contacts manually..... figured that microphone didnt worked Microphone issue : I can hear the caller's voice... but caller cant hear my voice. @ dipan bhai Abhishek why did you need to backup contacts manually bhai, google sync is easiest way just signin to your Google account and it does it. If you want to have an alternate option, try my backup pro for contacts/SMS/call logs/homescreen settings etc., extremely simple GUI interface, and it also allows backing up online. Worth the 250 INR but apk also on forum. Regarding SRF not having microphone, what is the exact issue? And I guess it is better to post the Epic specific issues in the Epic thread. Let us keep this thread for general Android OS. yeah i used mybackup pro. it showed 13xx contacts (98% of them were repeat from my 2 google accounts) rest 2% were saved in my phone's memory. so had to link them manually took lot of time. my backup pro restores apps to main memory only. so when memory gets full, you have to manually move them to sd card one by one. then again run mybackup pro to restore rest of the apps which will eventualy be installed into main memory .. and again you have to manually move it to SD card.
