Root Old TV style animation for DX Gingerbread!

[Deleted User]

The animation is pretty badass, too. Someone took some time on it - it even does the color shift that tube TVs did when you shut them off. If you look closely, you'll see the colors on the screen get blues and purples around the edges.

Maybe the President can include removal of TV remotes from homes in his fitness initiative.

There are times my family gets more exercise moving around the room looking for the remote control that what it would take to walk to the TV itself. The problem is back in the day there was only 3 to 6 channels that you could get on a TV so it was not hard to turn a dial or two to get to the channel you want. Today with 300+ channels it can take forever to manually get to the channel you want manually. Another reason I love my X, the dishnetwork app on my phone and I can change the channel from my phone!

I have actually come across a few TV's that didn't have channel/volume buttons on them, just a power button. I guess they figure if you lose your factory remote, there are plenty of universals out there to be had. Still, I was pretty well flabergasted when I looked for the controls on the TV set only to find it didn't have any.

I guess back in the day remotes weren't quite as necessary when there were only 3 channels on the air. lol

Anyone gotten this going with froyo?

 

[Steven58]

My nephew, Evo owner noticed the crt-off. Likes it!

 

[Bugly]

Is this included with GB or just something that has to be incorporated? I know Blurrybread has it, didn't notice if the gingerroot or GBdeodexed had it.

 

[GandalfTehGray]

lol any guinea pigs out there? Froyo supported or no?

 

[Steven58]

I have gb, but I'm gonna guess no crt -off on the froyo. Just an educated guess.

So if you decide you don't like this or get tired of it, how do you get rid of it?

The easy way is going into Spare Parts and setting your transitions to "Fast."

That doesn't get rid of it, but it stops it from being used.

Otherwise, probably the easiest way is to just re-flash the GB leak over the top of your existing install. Since I'm sure you probably didn't back up your framework-res.apk before installing.

Just for confirmation...the original "CRT off" mod works on the new GB leak? I still have the one I flashed on the original leak...can anyone confirm that it works fine??

 

[Deleted User]

Yes, it works fine.

I wouldn't use it, you will revert the new framework back to 4.5.573 version.

EDIT:
Unless you're asking if it's modded in the same way, then nevermind

^this^ +1000

edit: yes it works on the new one but your framework-res.apk will be replaced from the one from the previous leak
