Screen on animation? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I always notice a greyed out area for "Screen on animation" but it's never available in ROMs. Cyanogenmod implemented the ability to do that first on my other phones, are we waiting on them?
No biggie, just curious. =]

Turning screen off, looks odd.

When I press the power button on my GN to turn the screen off it doesn't just go straight off like say the iPhone does, it kind of disappears down to a weird white line and then goes off. Its like the days of really old TVs where it went to a white dot when the crt turned off.
Does this happen to anyone else?

It's a feature.
That is how it supposed to be. It is an animation from Google since the Gingerbread builds
Lol, really? Each to his own I suppose. At least I know it's not a faulty display.
Thanks.

No of course it's not a faulty display
It's a really awesome little feature when turning off the device. I love it!
Haha, yeah, when I updated my Desire to CM7 I spent ages just turning it on and off to watch it. I'd be VERY sad if they removed that feature.
(I'm easily pleased)
Unfortunately I do not have this feature with my SGN.
I cannot find the option to enable it also through settings at all.
Anyone got any idea how to enable this?

I don't think u need to enable it... Its already there..... When you hit the lock button, u will see your phone do a CRT like animation.
When I turn the screen off I definitely don't have it. I used to have it on my Desire with Gingerbread (Miui XJ). I used to be able to enable it in the options but I definitely don't have it on my SGN???

That's because the SGS is running a bastardized version of Android, like all TouchWiz devices. If you were to flash CM or an AOSP-based build you would have it.

I LOL'd when I read this post, are you just trying to troll?
You might be able to turn it off if you go into display settings, or just wait until CM9 comes out, it gives you an option to turn it off in the CM Settings as well as the ability to make the animation appear when turning it on.
I highly doubt you bought a Nexus and bought the XDA premium app without knowing about this Gingerbread feature
Lol funny post. I remember when video was leaked of gingerbread and all it was was that screen off animation.
Slickest thing I ever saw lol

Lollll. This has been in Android since 2.3. Its a nerdy throwback to CRT monitors/TV's.

[Q] Unlock screen

Is there a way to increase the sleep time on the lock screen? It goes black in like 5 seconds. Also is there a way to add app to the circle or modify them? I can't find it anywhere.
yes there is. Settings and display.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Uh, ya, no it doesn't. It sets the screen timeout of the main screens, not the lock screen. I have that set to 1 minute, but the lock screen blacks out in 5-10 seconds.
Didn't notice a stock option for this.
Oh that. Screen and security.

AOKP Milestone 5 Galaxy Nexus

I am using a LTE GN with AOKP. My question is about the lock screen settings. I looked and maybe I am missing it. But I can not see a way to stop the notification screen from coming on while on the lock screen. Is this something not supported with this ROM?

If the option is not in settings you can always use WidgetLocker for your lock screen, its infinitely customizable.

Yeah, I could do that. I purchased the app in the past and could download it again. More than likely I will just have the notification screen come down during the lock screen though. Since I don't want to use that app for that.
Thanks for the suggestion though. I forgot that application can do that.

CRT off animation!?

After updating to 4.0.4 today I noticed the CRT off animation doesn't occur anymore when the screen turns off anymore. Is there any way to get this back while staying stock!?
Thanks in advance.

Turn animations back on in the developer menu.
Thanks for the response but I tried this earlier and the only animation options I see in there are "window animation scale" and "transition animation scale"...am I missing something else?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Maybe its under display. Off animation? At least it is in CM9 usually the two are slightly similar.

Window display animation needs to be at least 1x. If you choose .5x or off you wont see it.

Awesome! Window animation at 1x did the trick. Thanks again

Evervolv for the Skyrocket I727

I've successfully ported the evervolv ROM to the SR, but whenever the CPU engages, IE unlock screen, launching an app, etc., this thick red outline appears. Sometimes randomly. Short of building from source, since i don't have the necessary tools, how would one fix this? I can just email that particular dev, but i wanted a broader audience. Thank you for your attention.

All of that is unticked. Fiddled with that crap. Otherwise its perfect. Wish there were a few more features through, mostly status bar stuff, like clock color and date format

I like the lockscreen chooser though. Too bad it couldn't have the status bar widgets or multiple pages in the status bar like in the ICS versions lol

Well I lost interest in this ROM. Screw it
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
That ROM is supposed to have a stock aosp experience
I know. I do like it. But in the ics version the status bar had multiple pages to swipe between. I though that was bad azz. Now with the power widget I guess its a little mundane. Oh well
