[Q] CRT screen on/off animation? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
Back when i had my Nokia n95 "great phone", i could download and install a small animation thing that could animate the screen-turn-on and off so that it looked the a CRT screen from the old days?
- Does anyone know if such a thing exists for the Note II, or if its hard to code?

Rooted is easy to install, non rooted, I don't know how. But it's totally doable.

Hey Xnes,
This is exactly what I needed?
My phone is not rooted, and if possible, I would like to keep it this way?
- But if it is needed, then i will do it...!
Any other ideas?

I use Wanam's great ROM. It can be enabled in this ROM. I suppose you don't want to flash a whole new ROM though when you don't want to root though. I think you need at least root to be able to change it.

Hey,
I will try to find Wanams rom.. And hope its easy to install..! But im not sure that i understand the last part of your message? "I suppose you don't want to flash a whole new ROM though when you don't want to root though. I think you need at least root to be able to change it." :$

For non rooted you can use an app.

I have the widget on my home screen. You then have to configure for crt effect. Here are my settings.
I'm happy enough with it.

My apologies, when I read it back it is indeed lousy English. I meant that when you don't actually want to root your device, flashing a whole new rom might be too much. I must say that besides the animation, the rom gives a lot more nice features, yet it stays close to the original Samsung rom, so it would still be interesting to look at maybe. Installing is quite easy and explained in the WanamLite rom thread.

It's called LatinImeGoogle.apk.
Here it is.
If that one doesn't work for you(some people say it doesn't, but it did for me) try the LatinIME.apk.
Have you tried Better Keyboard? I use it and like it a lot better than the stock one and its also customizable

Alright, I decided to try this for myself, and after trying both of these, and half a dozen other methods, I cannot seem to get it to work on this ROM, either.
Hopefully someone more informed than myself(shouldn't be very hard to find one of them) will come along and help us both out.

[MOD] Remove the annoying ongoing WiFi Connected notification

Another I'm not sure why in the hell AT&T or Samsung did this. Its pretty annoying, I'm pretty sure we know that we are wifi, and you guys do not need inform us the ENTIRE TIME...anyway...
Flash in recovery. I have tried to test every aspect of the Settings since decompiling to make sure there are no FC's so If you encounter any please let me know.
This should work with or without being de-odedex. However please delete the "SecSettings.odex" file in /system/app after flashing.
Click Me
Enjoy! - and press thanks
Thanks man! Very annoying "feature" I noticed coming from stock Rogers ROM. Do you know if you'll be working on something similar to remove the carrier logo in the notification bar as well? It's also another thing I noticed coming from the Rogers ROM

I've been asked by a few more people, aside from your selves to crank out a rom, I'm just getting everything in order, and modified how I like it before releasing something.
So in the mean time, I'm just throwing out small things . :good:
thanks for your mods running great so far on stock
On the stock ROM it didn't work until I deleted the secsecurity.odex file. Works like a charm now - thanks so much for solving one of the most irritating minor annoyances on this phone!
Sorry for being a NOOB, But base on the instruction, after flashing it, we are to delete the SecSettings.odex file in system/app.
After flashing it with TWRP, I went into ES File Explorer to look for it and cant find it.....Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

Are you running an odexed ROM or de-odexed? I have determined you need to be de-odexed.

Then you can't have it as no one wants TouchCrap on their Nexus
There is a ROM which uses TouchWiz but at the end of the day you're going to have to root if you want it - or get an SIII
Come on, a nexus without root it's like the sky without the stars... and if you have found an app that require root you've an excuse to make that too, i've rooted straight out from the box just for the sake of it...
Didnt get it but another app and its better...
Well got the feature that i wanted plus this app contains the dialer and the contact app into just one called "Dialer Ex" its good tried it ... and happy ... well i love my nexus now as it is .. dnt want even a tini minie miney bug on my perfect phone...:silly:

Just added some pictures so you guys can have an idea of what I'm talking about!
Mine has always done that
O.k. let me put it this way: is there a setting to turn that big box or square into just a glowing animation or maybe nothing? I don't want to root yet and even though I love the Google now launcher (just upgraded from a Nexus 5) I like the G3's launcher features. So my goal is to explore and enjoy the stock launcher as much as I can, beside, LG with their new UI has giving me the feeling that being skinned is not so bad after all...
Hey I know this is normal, but why can't the icons just behave like the ones above the nav bar that just kind of glow when touched??? Does anyone know how to make this different???

Exactly my point! Thank you for understanding my question! Anyway apparently there's no way to change that other than rooting or with a different launcher... Problem is that I like the G3's launcher and don't feel like rooting

Your welcome I also like the launcher and use it but I am indeed rooted and have done some nice things through it, mostly with G3 tweaksbox. But do you know how I can change this box thing with root access without using another launcher???

Personally I don't. I've read about it, don't remember where though. I don't have anything against rooting, is just that I change my phone very often. The last phone I kept for 2 years, rooted and flashed roms was a droid 2 lol. I used to love it!

I just rooted the G3, got myself the G3 tweaks box, have done some customization but haven't been able to get rid of the visual feedback when you press an icon-app on the home screen (see 1st post attachments for pics).
Is there a way to get rid of the feedback or just change the animation with tweaksbox?
Now that I'm rooted I'm willing to try other methods as well. As long as is not flashing a Rom or some crazy mods since I like the G3's UI.
Thanks again!
Btw can this be moved to the customization page?

A couple of new betas but no fix yet. I've even themed( just a few things cause I love the g3s theme) my phone using the g3tweaksbox, love it! I knew it was a great app since the beginning so I went for the paid version. @P_Toti is very busy working on his new official release but if my request is in that launch a donation will occur.

Yes, it is indeed a great app, I've got the paid version too ? and have also themed only a bit! I guess we have to be a bit more patient but I sure hope to see a real fix via the updated playstore app very soon, would be awesome ?
