[HOWTO] Enable CRT Animations on all Android 2.3 Devices

5

I was unaware that some device running Android 2.3 were not able to enjoy the beauty of the CRT screen on and off animations. Apparently there are a bunch of you that are suffering. For that I am truly sorry! As usual though, I have found the solution to the problem. Not on my own of course, but thanks to a very generous man by the screen name of Webst3r at RootzWiki.

Since I am currently running the CM7 ROM, I am unable to confirm nor deny the process works or not. Beyond Netflix support, the CRT animation was the only other reason I wanted 2.3 myself.

Here is the short list of what you will need in order to get started,

APK Manager
A .zip manager (I suggest 7-zip)
A text editor (I’ll be using Notepad++)
A framework-res.apk that you want to modify

Once you have all of that up and running, head on over to Webster’s post to see a screenshot and for full instructions on how to finish the process.

Time for an update. I am the proud father of three, 2, 8, and 11. I finally just moved up from the Samsung Vibrant to the Samsung Galaxy S III...... Let me tell you, it is mind blowing. I love Android, I love tech and I love my family. Not in that order though. I work to hard, play even harder and take care of all that are around me when I can.

    Because they are inconsiderate pricks.

    Because they are inconsiderate people. Obviously.

    And CRT stands for? (Surely not Cathode Ray Tube).
