Going to try and fool a bunch of people just for sh!ts and giggles. Running MIUI and want a iPhone boot animation so I can take the Nexus to some of the bars here and trick some silly iPhone users (mainly girls) into thinking that I have an iPhone 5 or 6 prototype. Changed the battery cover to have an Apple logo on it. Also, does anyone know if it's possible to change that "pre-bootanimation" logo with Google and the little lock at the bottom?
Thanks
I'm not even gonna say it.

To answer your question, yes you can change that Google image, it is called the splash screen and is done through the bootloader.

What's the pre-bootanimation on a iPhone? Is it that white screen? Also, I think you have to modify RLE files(or something like that).

I'd probably just want to make it completely black or have the Apple logo like on the iPhone bootanimation. I was able to get the bootanimation so mostly everything is in order. MIUI for the Nexus is so very much in Alpha that a lot of stuff still doesn't look right but I've managed to make it look 85% like an iPhone. It would probably work now but I'm a perfectionist so I'll probably work on it for a few more days or so. Probably until I realize that I'm no longer interested.
Wow, a Galaxy Nexus owner who wants an iPhone boot animation has some serious identity issues. Perhaps you need to set a reminder to talk to your therapist?
LOL you guys are ridiculous. Isn't the reason we all got a nexus so we can customize it the way we (each INDIVIDUAL) wanted to?

Slight hiccup in the OP's plan haha
+1
EDIT: You'll have to get in and change the Flash image (the white on black Google that appears as soon as it's powered on) then just get a dev (I might actually do it, with the pin wheel and everything) to post one and you'll be sweet - getting all the Atlantic (is that what you call them?) girls thinking you've got your hands on the newest iPhone prototype.
If that works, while you're there, also tell her that it needs to sit across the other side of the bedroom in landscape mode with the flash light on to charge - also to ignore the noises that sound like the camera re-focusing
Pathetic. Can't use any other word for this.

First you need to be a star in making a custom case to fit the galaxy s2 camera module (because its smaller) second it might or might not use less or more power you don't know. It might draw more power but where does that power come from (controller) would that be stable. etc etc. Practical absolutely not, with enough money you could, but then again you could design a new phone.
~Or wait for the galaxy S3 in a couple of months~
Lol just wanted to know lol my gs2 is just sitting on my table I feel a frankinstien moment happening lol its alive alive ..... owe f#@k its bricked lol owe well another paper weight lol.
I don't think gs3 will look as sexy and have a full screen display.

So my Nexus has burn in. Nothing new there on an AMOLED based screen. However, the other four Nexus I've seen that are more than a month old have the same issues as mine.
My question is simply this: how many of you who have a Nexus have burn in? Please include age of Nexus and when you first noticed burn in, if possible, as I'm looking to put together an objective look at time between purchase and initial occurrence.
If you are using color mods, please mention that as well.
Thanks.

I'm like...mega OCD about screen-burn.
I don't even enable my nav bar %95 of the time.
It's only open when I'm going to need the back button repeatedly as I change settings or something.
So annoying having to do that to keep your screen looking decent =[
I also use the full-screen browser option to minimize status bar burn (as I'm primarily in my browser during use).
No burn yet though!
Phone is a few months old now.
And the only color mod that will hurt your screen is the color multipliers...
Which I leave at default.

I got no burn in at all - I've had the screen since launch but the internals are new-ish. (washed my first one on accident so bought a new one, swapped my original screen in since it was much better quality ) Stock everything except rooted and leaked 4.0.4 ROM. I don't leave my screen on unattended though.
I have major burn in, even from my keyboard being up.
Really sucks and makes me sad.
May try a burn in reversal app on the market, if it works i'll make a fullscreen version for us nexus users
If the burn-in is that bad, wouldn't you be able to have the phone replaced under warranty?
Is it really that bad? :O
I bought my Gnex three days ago and I use the phone quite a lot, so that'll probably happen soon.

Can this be reversed or should I consider returning it for replacement?

If and when my screen "burns-in", it would still be good for daily use, right? Is it something that would bother me much? I have this phone on a two-year contract and would hate having it fail me halfway.

I think my girlfriend is going thru my phone when I'm in the shower, going to grab and bite to eat, or anytime I leave my cell phone around that gives her the opportunity to look thru it. BTW..I'm not cheating on her.
Is there an app out there that will log when someone uses/unlocks my phone and or sends a pic of her when she tries to access my phone. I don't believe in unlock passwords, cause I have nothing to hide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!

You could always clear your recent app history and check it when you think she looked at it unless she would know how to clear that. Then you would know what she opened too.

Get the app with the password but give her the password. Set that app up but use nova launcher to hide it. Give her the password upfront but just tell hr you want a secure. But in all honesty, crazy girls like that are hard to deal with. Unless you're very patient and love her you might want to reconsider. I once got in trouble for two girls talking about my small ears in Korean on a subway. Though I am Korean I don't know the language but my crazy gf at the time did. Un****ing real the situations you can go through with women like that.
...
Best advice is ask her.
Yeah people lie, but if you have nothing to hide she should have put that together by now. If you've proved trustworthy and she still has issues then talking about it would be far better then trying to bust her looking for something that isn't there.
Wife and I have open phone policy. Look at it all you want.

This is by far the best idea, simple easy and free.
Another option would be starting a logcat > logcat.text command (can't remember thr exact code) and that will show the screen go up and what apps are loaded and such

Use face unlock. It's not as telling of suspicion as switching to a pin code, but if you're having to assume she's snooping, as opposed to blatantly picking it up in front of you and cruising around it for sh!ts and gigs(my wife) , then it stands to reason that she's not going to confront you about it, if you just decided to use a "nifty feature you like on the phone"

...who loves the animation of the old CRT tv shutdown effect when your enter sleep mode/hit power button? I dont know why, but I look forward to it. Its a neat touch. Just wish it would do the same when you power it on.

Many custom ROMS have that feature.
It's not a new thing, my old moto defy has this feature from circa 2011. It is neat looking though.
I really like this animation.
It was introduced in Gingerbread on the Nexus S and Nexus One, and carried over to 4.0+. I'm so used to it now that I forget that other people might not have seen it before. I once read someone complaining that he thought something was wrong with his screen (on a Galaxy Nexus, I think), not realizing it's just an effect
I didn't realize the first Nexus 7 didn't do this, but I'm glad to hear the new one does. I think I'd be disappointed when mine shows up if it didn't...
Nah, you aren't the only one
When I see unrooted phones without that animation, I get really really uncomfortable.
Yep,I'm diggin it too.
