Different Rain Animation - HD2 General

Check this video out at 2:15. It has rain animation different to all others I have seen, its may be the same animation but just at a different angle but to me it looks like a more realistic animation to me.
See what you think... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOzNxYVCJ1M

See what you mean. It seems to come in from the side. I also notice that it has 3 options for wallpaper instead of 2. "Weather", "Animated" and "Picture" Maybe a pre release ROM.

Think your right about it being a pre release ROM, I have seen those 3 options before when I had a custom ROM on my HD. I'd really like to know why the rain has changed, I think it looks much better on the video.

I do remember the "Picture" option from a pre-release ROM I installed on my HD, but don't remember the rain coming in from the side. I'm not saying it didn't though, but I wish it did now - that looks a lot nicer!

Could it be the difference between Rain and Showers? I notice when I flick through the weather page to the various pre set locations, some of them show weather that isn't on the 'weather demo' list.

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I only ment the picture option I had seen before on HD ROM, the rain has always been straight down, this video is the only time I have seen it any different.

ATX84 ~~ NRGZ28 energyrom custom boot animation ~~ Updated July 8th

I have made a new boot animation for NRGZ28, it's still in its early stages, and can only hope I have time for more. I'm a huge fan with what he has done to my phone, and he has compelled me to give back to the community.
My goal here was simple. Sometimes I forget(as im sure some of you do to) what it was like owning a stock Rhodium, and i cant even remember what the GUI even looked like. NRGZ28's ROMS, although amazing, does not change dramatically enough for me to be mesmerized everytime i pick my phone up as it used to. Although I'm sure this wont entirely do it either, it will at least remind you of what you hold in your hand! Or something like that anyways, i was never really good at public speeches
This should work for any of his ROMS
P.S.~~if anyone could post some feedback on how far the animation goes on your devices that would be great! that means the leo, rhodium, Raphael... and any other devices that have a screen of that size, on both energyrom and stock roms.. or any roms for those devices. and if you know a way to change the length given for the animations let me know pronto!! I recieved a new warranty phone and the animation isnt playing the same length anymore. not sure if this is due to newer updated roms or the fact that the energyroms tp2 splash screen isnt on there anymore, just shows the ATT splash screen. thanks
Follow me on
Buy me a beer!
​
Updated July 8th!
Cabbed/Shortened/Resized---No more BS work for you!!
Additional Notes:
1) At least on my Rhodium, the last second or 2 wont play. (the fade out) It will simply hang on the image for a few seconds. (which works just as good) The orginal was 14 seconds long and i had to speed it up as i am unaware of a way to customize the time wm gives for the boot animation. So if anyone knows of a registry setting or a program that will do this. let me know ASAP!
2) I will also work on getting a sound file for it as well if this becomes popular enough.
Install
1) Download .cab
2) Installs it directly to windows
3) It will ask you to restart
Uninstall
1) Go to settings->system->remove programs
2) Will automatically put back the default animation
Please be patient as doing 3d animations takes a long time, as well as tweaking issues just to have more arise. And don't even get me started on getting a decent gif animator, and then trying to get it to do what its designed to do

That looks really cool from the screenshots, the bouncing and then the electric explosion looking thing... haha. Cool work.
Any chance of having it just say HTC there instead of NRG? I think you would get quite a few more downloads/donations.
Also, a short video or gif would be cool so we can see what we're getting!
Idea for Startup Animation
Hi There,
I am a huge fan of energy Roms as well!
I thought the following would be cool!
X-mens wolverine blades comming through a screen shot making the famous-x and the at the bottom Energy ROM...
Wish I knew how to but maybe you can do this for us??

Hmm.. that sounds like a fantastic idea! so the problem is.. start up a new thread for more generic animations, or just change the name and make categories in this one?
Will most likely be uploading a youtube video of it today.

Yes, this was my first concept design.. but depending on where the X goes, it might require that i make hands and wrist at least(which is a little bit of work ) unless it slashes with the blades coming through the background..i forget.
i don't know the legality of putting the original wolverine slash in there, (and wheres the fun in that? ) but i will see what i can do
If anyone knows of some good x slash video's, post them up! as i seem to be having a ridiculously hard time finding any. people need to make tags better! you would think there would be hundreds popping up! but no, with the game out all i find is gameplays for origins-wolverine
i like it alot
i think its awsome. wish i had skill like that !

ahh!! didn't test the browser? or multi-touch, someone chop off my right hand and all my fingers on the left except the pointer. no multi touch test, i might as well just keep one finger. the wait is killing me. with no more than one finger multi touch wont matter

Bell Canada Users: Come in here if you picked up an Atrix today!

As we all know, the Atrix comes out on Bell in canada today.... we need to find out if it has HSUPA disabled and has the locked boot loader.
Post up your results of a speedtest asap when you get one!
According to a post over at Atrixforums.com HSUPA is enabled.
Not sure about the bootloader, though.

I'm gonna go fiddle around with one over my lunch break (in one hour)... here are some concerns I'm trying to have straightened out:
1) Are the icons too small because of the qHD resolution + 4" screen?
2) Are the colors washed out?
3) Is zoomed out text pixelated in the browser (PenTile screen)?
4) How bad is the Motoblur lag?
5) How smooth does flash play in the browser? (I realize it's the non-optimized-for-Tegra Flash 10.1 running)
6) And finally, is it true that Live Wallpapers make it lag?
7) Outdoor viewability?

Agreed. Motoblur is not even an issue with Launcher pro installed. Some of the enhancements like the dialer are pretty nice once the junk launcher is hidden.

Screen is great IMHO. Coming from a Dell Streak, Nexus One, Droid X and iPhone 3g this is by far the best screen ive used.

1. Definately not, seems the same as any other android phone
2. Nope, colors are vibrant and look great
3. I havent noticed any problems with text... I read alot of forums and ebooks on mine without issue
4. Not noticable.
5. Quite. Ive watched lots of youtube/flash video with out issue....... very smooth
6. No clue... i dont use them as they're a battery drain
7. Excellent outdoor visability. Probably not the best, but I havent had any issues.
I'll be picking mine up today, gotta do a few other things first though. Gonna head to the gym today in about 30 minutes (as I do every morning), then I have school till 12:30, then I'm off to pick up the phone. However, I'm getting from a Chinatown store (even though I'm not Asian) since the person there gives me a discount on the phones (on top of my renewal discount), but they sometimes do get phones a little late. If they do have it, the I'll get it, and if anyone has any questions, I'd be happy to test out and answer.
One question from me though, what does HSUPA enabled mean? I know what HSUPA is, but if it's enabled, does that mean we get full speed, or does that mean that the speed has been blocked (as with the ATT version of the phone)?

Is there a lot of bloatware on the Bell version?
Just played with one... it's a nice phone. Screen is nice, not sure why people complain about it and I'm very picky with screens. Although they're right about the yellows looking odd, and also green looks pixelated but it's not that bad.
It's decently fast, didn't notice much Bell stuff on it, just the normal Motoblur crap. Put launcher pro on it to test, very smooth so good alternative. Browser pinch to zoom was a bit choppier than my Nexus S for some reason, perhaps it's because it's 2.2 instead of 2.3? Also google maps was choppier when looking at 3D buildings (downtown Toronto) than the Nexus S, probably due to the SGX540 GPU in the Nexus S being as powerful as the Tegra 2's geforce but not having to display as many pixels as the Atrix. Still, it's not that bad, liveable I suppose.
The bottom line for me was do I want a 2.2 phone knowing how much more polished 2.3 is and also giving up 40/mo unlimited EVERYTHING from Wind to pay 55/mo for 1gb of data and only 200 any time minutes on Bell. Right now I'd have to say no, but this is the best phone in the Canadian market right now (I'm excluding the Nexus S).

I think he's talking about how everything looks squished down and stretched a little. I think it's due to the difference in Screen Size, since most of the ROMs started out as ports to the EVO or EVO Shift.
Uber Kingdom
I'm about to download Uber Kingdom which is running Sense 3.0
I'll take a look but I have heard people say that widgets do look distorted.

I'll give you a visual example - the extensions in my Chrome.
Originally, they look like this:

But after distortion, they look like this:

The distortion is off by about 7 percent, so it is a lot less than what is shown, but in real life and a larger image size, 7 percent is a lot too.

Yeah, I've been here since November, so I have no idea how a new leak works. Sorry if I'm being too impatient.
I kinda like the distortion (well don't mind for now). The icons seem a little smaller and yes i can tell they are "squished" but doesn't bother me too badly, other than my girlfriend doesn't like her pictures now because they make her look slightly short and wide....

black clipping, how to see it

Guys, here is a very easy way to observe the black clipping issue.
In your launcher settings, set your drawer to horizontal paginated and the transition effect to card stack.
Now, in a dark room, simply scroll through your app drawer from one page to the next....very, very slowly.
(This works best if you can scroll from a page full of icons, onto an empty one)
Watch the icons as they appear out of the black background, note how they are broken and choppy at first, only taking full form once sufficient brightness is reached.
I also have an sgs next to me, running ics sgs 4.2.... If I repeat the test the application icons fade away and reappear perfectly into the black background.
Its a very sad state of affairs......but it affects every galaxy note.......

I know, I dint mean it to be condescending. But if you searched, you would know, it used to be once oft discussed topic.
The recent CM9 and Stunner ROMs have subsided most of it, though some of it is inevitable. Samsung, unfortunately, dismisses it as normal. LOL
No offence taken. I'm aware of the history.
I'm keen to try the CM9 ROM, to see if it addresses the issue.
