[Q] screen should turn off like old tv but dont - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey xda, sorry for my english. i recently updated my DHD into android 2.3.3 and i've read somewhere that there should be a animation which look like an old tv when you turn off the screen on your phone. But i can't seem to get it to work. I've already tried turning on animations but it wont work. So my question is, should it work with that update, and if yes how can i get it to work? if no, is there any way to get it?

The crt animation is not included in sense. It is only found on stock gingerbread. The only way to get it would be to root and either flash a rom that includes it or their might be a mod or manual way to add it.

[Q] Lockscreen slide

Hello I tried searching but I couldn't find anything but I am running cyanogenmod the final release on my g2 and I was wondering if there is a way to set my phone so when I open the screen it doesn't automatically unlock but instead it just shows the lockscreen and let's me unlock it manually. Thanks!

I'm assuming you mean when you slide the screen open it unlocks automatically...
If so, then no, there's no way to manually unlock it
well if you run a sense based rom it may work like that, its how mine does what your asking, unfortunatley cyanogenmod does not
you could put in a password or something that will instantly activate, but that may be more trouble than its worth.

The only way I know to do this is to set a pattern/password unlock.

change the button behaviors on cyanogenmod setting. you must have something on since when i use it the trackpad it only wakes the phone and not unlock it, so i slide it down manually to unlock it.

Yes, there is. It needs to be modded in the framework.
I see. I guess I will have to put some type of pass on it then because my phone sometimes opens up accidentally then apps get launched and all kinds of things lol. Thanks again for all of the helpful quick responses though!

Buy widgetlocker. You can customize your lockscreen and it stays locked after opening.

Tmobile boot screen

Im rooted soff eng off flashed leedroid and i still have my tmobile start screen aint a huge deal but annoying anythin i can do to get rid of it
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
If its the splash screen shown immediately before the boot animation then you will need to flash that separately using a separate tool.
Take a look in the Apps & Themes section, I've used it myself.

Missing Widget? Please help

Ok so that normal widget that has the enable or disable stuff for wifi, 4g, and cant remember the other 2. But for some reason it just disappeared and i cant find it in my widgets.. and when i swap to a theme that does have it, it just says "Problem loading gadget". Someone mind helping me fix it? Its like my all time favorite widget =(
More info pls about ur phone... What are you running, like Rom and stuff like that. That way we can see what's going on

Nocturnal shooter sense 3.0 rom. It was there last night and i woke up and its gone now.. it was the stock widget for 4g and wifi and gps and 1 other thing
Did u recently installed the Rom? If so, did u do it over pc and put it on sd card? Or downloaded from from phone and install from there? I ask bcuz some ppl do either way and that can be a problem. Becomes a bad download. I use to have shooter for a while but did not run into that problem. Have u posted in the shooter forum yet about this problem?

Flipped screen

When I turn my screen off it flips the image vertically. It gets a little annoying after a while. I'm running Caulk's 2.6 with EK02. It also did this with the previous rom. Is there a solution to this besides turning all animations off?

It's fairly common, it seems to happen when you lock it on the homescreen while in landscape mode. To fix it without rebooting pretend it's right side up and unlock it like you would normally (so you would be swiping in the same place even though the picture is wrong). Then rotate the phone and rotate it back.

im gonna venture to say he means it just inverts the image AS the animation plays. it happens on my calk rom 2.6 el 13 also. i agree, its kinda annoying. i actually wish it would play a little static as it turned off like a tv
Seems to be happening on a few different ROMs that use the CRT animation. Maybe its the EL13-based ROMs
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Yeah my EL13 it doing it too. Annoying as hell. I always have to reboot to get it fixed. I never knew what was causing it but I'll have to try to make it do it now.
Its the ICS screen rotation animation. Strongsteve removed it 2 updates back because he wants no issues whatsoever on his ROM. I addressed the fix on Calkulin's thread as well. There are 2 .so files you can push from previous version that will give you stock rotation animation back and clear that up. You would use Root Explorer or similar file manager and push them individually to system/lib folder

Merry x-mas everone. like everyone else is saying it happens when shutting the screen off rather its In landscape or vertical view. its so hard to see unless you stair directly at your phone when shutting the screen off which I don't . its a small price to pay to have the smooth ics screen rotations. I haven't had any stuck upside down screens Like some have had.
I was able to fix my flipped screen problem by downloading Spare Parts from the market and changing to Windows Animation to Fast.
Hope this helps.
I think its just a bug in the screen rotation animation because i get it and im running stock with the aio mod

Sorry but everybody saying its from ics is wrong. Thats an issue too on gb and its from crt animation which i believe all developers add to their roms. And the fix like someone said is downloading spare parts and switching the window animation to fast (which will kill the crt effect when powering on and just leave u with the screen shut off crt effect. Ive been on every ics build and never had the problem. Only time i had the problem was on EL29 when i flashed the aio mod for the hotspot hack which also came with crt..

Actually, it is the ICS animation on GB that does it, pretty sure thats what was implied. Not that it happens on ICS. Just elaborating on what you said.

[JB][STOCK][4.2] Stock Tethering

By flashing these you assume all risks involved. I cannot be held liable. If Sprint detects your tethering and reacts accordingly, I am not responsible for any charges or damages.
That being said, I have had no issues myself. I've used the tethering from this for quite some time and haven't gotten charged or received any kind of cease and desist letters. I don't expect anyone else would either, but I have no way of knowing for sure. YMMV

I have some flashables I made for my own device. I prefer the pure stock experience, but I wanted native tethering enabled. Here are a few flashables that I made for my own personal use, but I figured other people might enjoy it. This has been tested with bluetooth and wifi tethering.
The flashables have only been tested using TWRP. Other recoveries may work but are not guaranteed.
These are only intended for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus.
Flash this at your own risk! I am NOT responsible for any damage caused to your device. Always perform a NANDROID backup before installing anything. By flashing these you agree to accept all risk involved therein and I cannot be responsible for any losses or damages caused.

How do you flash these? Also do they simply enable the stock feature of the tethering and hot spot setting?
Can't flash fix please.

Same here. Clockworksmod shows an incompatibility with the Updater-Script.
I may try to just copy the framwork-res.apk to the rom.
I've updated the zips and tested them on my phone. They work on TWRP. No promises for CWM. Let me know if it's still broken on CWM and I'll try to fix that too.

Oh shyt. I stand corrected! 360° rotation does work with non stock launchers! Awesome man! Its mods like these that keep me stock! Thx man! I was considering a custom rom just for the ability to rotate 360°!
Now if I can figure out how to get the pattern unlock to work with the slide unlock screen so I can keep my lockscreen shortcut ill be set!

They both modify the same resource, so you have to use the combined version to get both. Using one then the other just overwrites what the other one did. That zip contains both tethering and 360º rotation without lockscreen rotation, so you should be good.
Thanks it worked for the wireless tethering on mine. 3g doesnt go away like it used to when I tried to tether.
One question. I went ahead and unlocked the bootloader and rooted for this purpose and, honestly, only this purpose. Im wondering, could I just unlock the bootloader and still leave the ROM secure to do something like this since its being flashed? Id much rather not have things like Google Wallet barking at me because its rooted.

Awesome and I see u modified the OP. I'll restore and flash the combo zip.
Got any other mods often found only in custom roms?
Navi bar size mods?
Carrier name changes?
Maybe ability to simultaneously use pattern/pin lock with the default slide lock screen?!?
Willing to donate for any work u do!
Edit: when using the tether/rotate combo zip, tether functions but the lock screen rotates as well. Not a big deal as I have no problem using wifi tether.

If you want it without lock screen rotation, download the one from the post a few back. It has a mod with what you requested. I don't have a whole lot of time to just play, but if you have a specific request I can see what I can do as I have time.

Using the one u made and the tether results in tether not working. But thaz not important. Honestly if u can pull off the simultaneously pin/pattern with slide lock screen on stock I'd pay handsomely.

I'm using this one and tethering works for me. It has 360º rotation and tethering but not lockscreen rotation.
I'll see what I can do with the lock screen for you.
