Animated GIFs + 2.2 - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a reason why the default still won't play animated .gifs even after the 2.2 update?

Default what? Browser? Gallery? Need more info.

Bonsai v4.0.1 and the Modded Gallery..

Hey everyone.. I've done a little digging and I can't seem to find a solution. I am currently running Bonsai 4.0.1 and love it.. but I noticed that their modified version of the gallery doesn't allow me to set my own photos as scrollable wallpapers. Static single panel only. I tried pulling the Gallery apks from Syndicate and Midnight.. but they both have the Gallery Sensor bug. I can live with just rebooting my phone whenever I change wallpapers, just curious as to the existence of a Modded Gallery 3D apk that doesn't drain my battery and can set scrollable wallpapers. Thanks in advance!
Cheers,

I have Bonsai 4.0.1 and the modded Gallery and mine scrolls just fine. Never tried a photo but am using a jpg of a Thor movie poster that scrolls. I made sure I cropped it in landscape size. Have you tried quickpic? Maybe it is the order of how I did it. I long press on a blank homescreen or blank area, pick wallpaper, then the Gallery comes up to pick the picture. Crop what you want and set it.

Hmm.. I just flashed in the original gallery apk from bonsai 4.0.1 and cropped my photo in landscape and now it scrolls, but with black bars above and below the image. When I use the Gallery from SRF or Midnight I can crop in either portrait or landscape and wont get the bars..

That is strange. I don't get any bars. I had to actually add some black edges to my Thor background so it is visible above the launcher icons.
I can't imagine that they would have packaged to different galleries between the time you flashed it and when I did.. would they?

I doubt it, although I did had an issue where Gallery icon was labeled "false". I had to remove it with sdx app removal tool, download Gallery 3D from the market, then replace that one with root explorer with the apk pulled out of 4.0.1 install. Don't know if that changed the way mine handles pix and wallpaper or not.
I've never had any problems using the included 3D Gallery in Bonsai to set scroll-able wallpapers. I just tried it again to make sure and it still works, although I normally use Quickpic as my go-to Gallery app.

Same with Midnight which uses Bonsai as its base. I use QuickPic and erase Gallery with Root Explorer. Works perfect

Sounds like something flashed incorrectly or got funky during the download. At anyrate, I've used Quickpic and Just Pictures before. Suppose Ill just go back to using those. Thanks a bunch for all of your input.

As far as I know you can't fix it, its just how its coded or what not. Did it to me stock even before I rooted and flashed ROMs I dont think there was a fix or anything for it either.
Ok thanks I was really hoping for a fix tho. Modded version of qik mabay?

What are the requirements? I am on RandomRom and Geonicide kernel. I get the log in screen for netflix but as soon as I enter my usernme and try to log in it closes the app.
You need to be on EE03 or EF02 (Gingerbread) for it to work at all. I'm getting good everything from EF02Plus if you wanna mae th switch.

You may have the modem, but make sure you are also running the gingerbread rom EF02. If not you will need to flash it with oden like you did with the modem.

Skype now allowing video calls, not for Epic.

Is it possible for us to spoof as one of the allowed devices and use it?

Maybe by editing the build.prop you can achieve this.
I tried spoofing the Nexus S 4g, but unfortunately no luck on the video.
Edit: Actually it does not look like the Nexus S 4G is supported either..
This worked for me using EF02:

Stick the launcher app into system/apps
Btw this should be on the acs site on the bamboozeled forums

the memkill setting are set too aggressive.. and ^^ works! Really suggest to upgrade to the latest leak tho. Runs just as smooth.

I was going to wait for a theme or 2 to come out and for the CRT and overscroll glows but I might as well since I'm hearing so many good things about it

Wow that worked like a charm...smooth as ever with no reloading...much appreciated!
Does this only apply to that particular ROM? Also, does making it a system app in Titanium do the same thing?
Thanks,

I don't think so...I've experienced it on a smaller less frequent scale even running EG22...I think it has somthing to do with less RAM being available in Gingerbread...and I also have a lot of apps (100+) installed...could that be apart of the problem?

In Launcher pro I select to keep in memory on the preferences and it works fine not reloading. without it would reload as you describe quite often.

I think we can cross that source off the checklist because I'm still having the issue even though more sparingly on EG22....Bamboozle is a great ROM.
