AT&T R800at CRT / Tube TV sleep ani - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my girlfriend just got her Droid 3 on VZW and when it goes to sleep (the screen turns off) it has a screen animation reminiscent of old tube tv's (CRT monitors). From what I gather, this is a feature of Gingerbread (my old phone was a Dell Streak 5" stuck on Froyo).
My R800at (the at&t version of the play just released Sunday) does not have this animation. It only fades to black like I am used to on Froyo.
Is there a way to turn this feature on?
I'm on
Android Version 2 3 3
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9-perf
SEMCUser SEMCHost #1
Build number 3.0.1.B.O.270
Anyone figure out where the setting is for the CRT animation?

R800i versions had this crt animation with build number 4.0.A[...]. Now with new Android 2.3.4 and build 4.0.1[...] there is no more CRT off but the new one and way better than CRT.

You are saying the 4.0.A release (the latest) has a different sleep animation that you prefer over the CRT ani? And it's different from the fade out? What is the new animation?

My 2.3.3 stock R800at FW on my R800at just goes blank when I lock it.
My 2.3.4 generic North American R800a FW on my R800at fades faster at the exteme edges like a CRT tube. I like it.

[Q]Rotate Animation from 1.5

Hey
Does anyone remember the rotate animation that could be turned on, in 1.5, in Spare Parts? The one that kinda bounced when rotating the screen
I was wondering if it was possible to get this animation on Android 2.2?
I'm running OpenDesire 3.3.0 right now and would love for this animation to come back It gives the UI a more cool/fancy look.
Bump...
Am I really the only one that remembers this animation?
It was removed from eclair onwards!
And I guess it's not possible to hack back?
That sucks..
I can see it's been a long time since this thread was started, but I would actually love to see this too....

Why no CRT On animation?

Just curious but why do non of the ROMs beside CM7 come with CRT on animation? They only come with the CRT OFF animation.
I haven't used any of the stock-based GB ROMs, but I read somewhere that TouchWiz 3.2 changed up some of the stock GB animations, namely A) the overscroll is blue instead of orange, and B) there is no "CRT On" animation. The stock-based ROMs inherit the TouchWiz 3.2 behavior.
CM7 is based on pure AOSP, with very little TouchWiz 3.2 (according to jt1134 they have to use some TouchWiz), thus it inherits the original GB animation behavior, i.e., A) overscroll is orange, and B) optional "CRT On/Off" animations.
Is there somewhere you have to enable screen off animations?

I loved THE CRT animation on my evo.

Lack of demand?
I had always presumed that there simply was no big demand for CRT-on animations. I used a ROM with it available but chose to turn it off (naturally, I kept the CRT-off on though!).
Cool animations are spiff for when your putting your device away, but when I want to pop into my Epic and check traffic.com for traffic conditions at the last second [at already sluggish data speeds] before whizzing by an alternate highway route, I'm not likely to be quite as appreciative of a short anim. sequence getting in the way as I am when I don't have any immediate need for the device.
I think people generally want to be able it get into their phones as fast as possible.

[Q] Is it true that 2.3.4 has a new lock animation?

I kind of really like the CRT animation on 2.3.3, I heard sony changed it on 2.3.4, what was it changed to?
It's called a screen off animation, and it was changed to a fade in/out from middle transition

It's not as good as the CRT. Infact you prob wouldnt notice the new anim if you didnt look for it
Ah ok thats not so bad then, thanks for the answer.
I actually prefer the new screen-off animation. It looks smooth. I have grown oh so tired of the CRT animation and everybody else has it.

How to get CRT animation for turning scree ON

Hi,
I have Calkulin's E4GT 2.8.1 with Venum Minimal Black & White Theme.
The Minimal Theme came in 2 versions, Regular and with 13 lockscreen mods.
I tried the 13 lockscreen mods version but like the Regular one better.
The only problem is that with the Regular version, I only get CRT animation for turning the screen off. I used to get CRT animation for both turning the screen on and off with the 13 lockscreen mod version.
I tried installing Calkulin's CRT_on.zip but it only works for turning the screen off.
Anybody have any idea how I could keep the regular version theme and get the CRT animation for turning the screen ON as well?
My set up is perfect otherwise. It just sucks that I have to choose between having the Minimal Black & White "Regular" version and having CRT animation for turning the screen on as well.

Hey jackka, I am having the exact same issue. I have tried flashing the CRT_on.zip and still nope, no CRT on. The only thing it does after the flash is change my battery icon back to green. Wonder whats going on as it seems to work fine for everyone else.
I was hoping there was a mod I could flash on for CRT on and off animation.
But it seems there's only one for CRT off animation and for CRT on animation, you just have to hope the theme or ROM comes with it.
I'm assuming what Calkulin meant by CRT_ON is that it turns ON the "CRT OFF animation." lol
Can't have everything, I guess...
I'll take a look at the zip later to see if I can figure something out
