Hello everyone
There is a small problem with android 4.2 JB and its pretty annoying IMO. For some reason, when I press the power button, whether its turning the screen on or off, there is a slight delay between the button being pushed and the phone actually doing what its supposed to do. Is it just my phone or is anyone else having it? When I switched back to 4.1, the problem was gone. Is there a way I can fix this issue?
Thanks!

I have the same issue
Me too.. is it normal or what?
It's not the phone. The 4.2 crt animation was changed to look better on LCD screens. The new speed seems to lag. Turning it off gets rid of the issue.
How to switch it off? Can't find any separate option in settings or developer options. All other animations in developer options are off already.
I have that lag also since 4.2

I also want to know how to switch it off ... Annoying :/
I have that issue too and lime others I want to get rid of it. How can i switch that crt animation OFF?
A build.prop or local.prop edit should get rid of the CRT animation. debug.sf.electron_frames=1
The default is 24 if you want to go back.
Could you be more specific please? What app should we use? How exactly I can edit that file? Where I can find it? Is it in stock roms?

It is in all ROMs, you will have to be rooted to edit it.
local.prop may not exist by default, it would be in /data
build.prop will exist though, it is in /system
via adb something like this should work:
Code:
[I]adb remount
adb shell
cd /system
echo "[I]debug.sf.electron_frames=1[/I]" > build.prop
reboot[/I]
^ that mounts system as r/w
enters shell
changes current directory to /system
sends the extra line to build.prop
then I assume a reboot would be necessary to see the change
It can also be done via terminal emulator, or a file explorer with root permissions. If you want to edit build.prop you will have to mount /system as r/w prior to making any edits to it.
well,this is something thank you verry much!
Edit: My phone is stuck at the Google logo and won't turn off

Hi guys,
I recently rooted my Galaxy S (JF5) and installed ROM Manager & applied lag fixes, I managed to brick it and somewhere along the line when I got the phone working again, the "S" start up animation disappeared when I switch on my phone, all it displays is the Samsung Galaxy S GTi9000, then screen went dark until it reappears with slide to unlock screen and then asking for SIM pin code.
Any ideas why this happens? I tried factory resetting it but doesn't solve the problem, any help would be appreciated please?
well can't really help but can say the exact same thing is happening to me. I mean it does the shutdown animation but no longer does the startup animation.
Just stays on the static Galaxy S, Samsung white text on black background and then plays the boot up sound but no animation and then goes to the "slide to unlock" screen.
Really rather strange, i mean its not harming me in anyway as the phone works like a dream just no animation, but i do kind of miss it and also it always scares me that my phone is just frozen/looping when it stays on that first galaxy s screen for a while lol.
Why do you even care if its not there. The reason is because you installed lag fix. It moved it

Because it looks nice most likely lol, anyway of putting a custom boot animation in its place?
Pro boot changer from market sounds right but have no idea where to get the anims from.

same thing happened to me...
but i think there is a way to get it back. We just need someone who has got the default bootanimation and is kind enough to make a back up using Boot Animation Backup from the Market ( file wil be placed on your sd card) and then just upload it on forum

If you grab my one click lag fix app off the market, it has an option to restore the default boot logo.
EDIT: If you just want the file, it is the 'playlogosnow' file that you can find here:
http://code.google.com/p/oclf/source/browse/#svn/trunk/QuickFixLagFix/res/raw
were should i move the file (is it /system/media ?) and how should i name that playlogosnow file?
May have found the file under sdcard/ase/resources/playlogo1, is this the right one? If so where should I move this to?

if done the lag fix 2.2 using the old way (via pc) how should i go about restoring this boot logo then?
*ADDITION* Decide to "unlagfix" via the way i lag fixed it (using pc) caused me a bootloop. Sigh... had to flash again and decided to re-partition everything. need to now install everything again, least i got my animation back hahaha. Always look on the bright side huh?

Easiest way would be to install the app off the market, then in the menu select 'restore boot logo'
Other than that, the boot logo should be here if you have no lag fix/start scripts:
/system/bin/playlogos1
or here if you have a lag fix or similar:
/system/bin/playlogosnow
And make sure that it has execute permissions.

Yep... although depending on what lagfix you are using, copying the file to /system/bin/playlogosnow should work.
I guess I should make my restore boot logo thing a bit smarter to pick that up and do it for you... hmm..
hi folks,
i have rooted and lagfixed my I9000 and JPC Firmware...
it works fine (quadrant means ~1950 -at JM1 it was > 2100 , but it's okay for now-),
but i miss the bootanimation!!!
i tried the "Restore Boot Animation" option, but it only says:
"You appear to have a lagfix installed! Replacing the bootlogo in this case could cause your deice become un-bootable. (free space on /data matches/data/data)"
Is there no chance to get the beloved bootanimation back?
Thx for answering

Today, my notifications bar disappeared and I can not make her appear again at all, have tried everything.
Do not use any launcher, or any modified ROM.
Can anyone help me?
Try restarting your phone ; are you rooted? You may have deleted you systemUI.apk or messed up its permissions - they should be rw,r,r
Yes, I have root access, possibly have deleted this file.
have restarted the device several times, and not back to normal, now what? what do I do?
What rom is your phone on and what model is it?

you should try the modded apk then cause not having any of those issues with that apk.
but u have to force install that apk file by coping it to system and changing permissions
that is to hard for some people
Es file explorer, super manager are easy to use not hard at all
if you want to post the file link to the other apk and detailed instructions i will add it to op
is the link in the OP the modded apk?
no

Hahaha couldn't help but laugh. Playya is right OPs are not responsible for what happens to your phone.
Should I revert back to the old build.prop before flashing a different rom?
Edit: So I did some reading and figured it out. Sometimes it's better to look for the answer on ur own. Ignorance is not bliss!
Fix Model
This will install a script to fix ro.product.model, CM 10.1 uses GT-N7105 for the model this can cause a few issues with play store and what not. It also shows on xda app and tapatalk. With nightlies coming out every night its a pain to keep changing build.prop to fix so just flash this and run one command then you are set. This will help those not sure or wanting to manually edit build.prop.
This will work for any rom but it seems this issue is only on CM 10.1 because they are supporting other carriers too.
Usage:
Flash in recovery right after flashing/updating CM
Open up terminal emulator and type su be sure the $ changes to #
Then type fixit
Reboot
Profit !
On a side note you can make model whatever you want by editing the script /system/bin/fixit, change SGH-I317 to whatever you want it to be...
Enable/Disable OnScreen Keys:
These scripts will enable or disable onscreen navigation keys.
Usage:
Flash zip in recovery right after flashing/upgrading cm
Open terminal emulator type su be sure $ changes to #
Type keyson to enable onscreen keys or keysoff to disable them
Reboot
Profit !
Note: These will work with ANY rom Touchwhiz or AOSP builds !!

OP, is it possible to get PCs to recognize our phones as 317 instead of 7105? If there's a way, I'll be all over it.
I unfortunately heavily rely on Kies to sync my Outlook contacts with my phone, and no, I don't like having my contacts only in GMail and running the risk of my address book going blank somehow if data or reception in general cuts out for me, since if that ever happens, I can at least use my phone as an address book to make phone calls through another device. And Kies doesn't seem to want to finish "establishing connection" with my phone... :\

Just FYI, once your contacts are on Google and synced with the phone they won't ever disappear, on the phone or online, unless you delete the account or make changes. Even with no connection you can view them on your device, and they can be exported to a csv file if you want an actual hard-list on your computer as well as the phone. I made the switch from outlook about a year ago & have never looked back. Although I did set up a separate Google account so their location & ad data doesn't ever mingle with my contacts.

I am brand new to android and recently rooted my M8. I was trying to change the /system/customize/acc/default.xml to hide the NFC icon and when I attempted to save the file the phone rebooted and later asked if I wanted to send HTC an error report.
I have tried this with several file managers which all have root priveleges. It seems as though this happens when trying to modify anything in /system. Am I missing something obvious?

I did the mod that exists currently and while it makes the icon transparent it still takes up space on the status bar. I was trying to set the nfc_show_icon setting to zero. Nothing is screwed up I just can't change the file.
yea i tried to install xposed and it did the same thing, at least i didn't have to restore my backup, but curious that the phone reboots and restores when system is modified...
the m8 has system write protection, wait for an insecure kernel/module to be made or use custom recovery and adb to make changes within /system
