Hi,

I want to know if someone can change the background of the miui player

Hereto have a transparent one?

And if you know if its compatible with [Cyanogen6.1.3]GingerBreadv01 by Rendeiro2005?

Thanks for your help
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tdeljr:
I received an unlock code for my hd7 from t mobile and instructions say insert foreign SIM card, my question is what do they mean by foreign? I've tried an inactive t mobile SIM but it doesn't work.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick109:
lol well in the wildest sense of the word, try a sim card from another country ;) lol

but i think even using an att sim would do (for your unlocking purpose)

also: if you asked for the unlock code and got it, the whole point is that you can go abroad and still use the same phone

if you want to flash to another rom, then just ask a friend for a non-tmo sim to proceed with unlocking
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tdeljr:
I am planning on using the phone while on vacation abroad I just thought that it would be better to get it unlocked before.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gordy_2001:
Is there a app that will allow me to backup my SD on CN via FTP?

I want to schedule backups at night via a ftp server I have running inhouse.

I saw a few apps that would backup to a subscribed service, but I want to use my own servers.

ANy ideas??

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] linkandzelda:
Hello,

I've been playing around with Overclocking my Milestone over the past few days and i've been setting the max clock speed and the vsel values. In order to test if they are stable or not I run SetCPU stress test for 20-30 mins. If it crashes during that time then I deem it unstable.

Now the question is, is running a stress test to test out stability comparable and actually an effective way to check stability rather than using the phone for whatever you would use it for?

Thanks in advance,

Kris
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Caz666:
I have read (several times) that the camera app is the most sensitve to bad overclocks and lack of vsel. I used this to find my best vsels and it worked fine. I dont know if this is better, but it is certainly shorter.

My camera would crash IMMEDIATELY with bad settings (force close or strange focus freezes).

My 2 cents.

Sent from my Milstone running CM7
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] linkandzelda:
Ah well thats really good to know! I'll have to use that in future as i got a few random reboots after running a stress test for 30 mins with no problems. Opened the market and it rebooted!

Thanks.
[Thunderbolt General] ilogik:
I consistently get 20Mbps down and 30Mbps up on average using speedtest.net but when I tried to upload a 14 meg video to youtube it took 5 minutes. So I tethered my laptop and transfered files during various times of the day, the transfer was about 300KB down and about 200KB up which does not reflect the speedtests.

How are your speeds while tethered?
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
Speed test app is not reliable . haven't had a chance to tether
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
^ that

If you want the real LTE speed test, go to the actual speedtest.net website on your phone and run the test. Be sure to turn off mobile view in the browser settings, otherwise going to the site directs you to the market app.
[Thunderbolt General] Lipmonger:
Remember - the 30MBs up on the speedtest.net app is incorrect due to a glitch, and not representative of even Verizon's own 4G LTE upload performance specs. More realistic speeds are about 6MBs up, with 12-16mBs down being average (until more devices come online).

See national test results... http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_7-20045376-251.html

Also... how are you tethering? Are you using the Verizon hotspot app? A USB cable? An app on a rooted Thunderbolt? You will get varying results depending on your setup, so more details are needed.
[Thunderbolt General] ilogik:
I am using the Verizon hotspot app. I was kind of disappointed at how long the uploads take to youtube from the phone itself.

On a side note, how do I upload 720p videos to youtube from the phone, the maximum playback resolution is 480p on the stuff I uploaded.
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
I haven't found the up speed to be as fast as they claim. I get like 1.5mb up
[Thunderbolt General] distortedloop:
I'm getting excellent speeds to most of the services speakeasy offers to test against from Los Angeles: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS7ZV39Hdp8

20-30 down, usually about 3 up.

I get occasional lack of service though, haven't pinned down if it's location related or not, though.
[Thunderbolt General] SuperFly03:
I used it with my laptop and it felt as fast as the speedtest would indicate minus the upload glitch.
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
I lose a tiny amount tethering, but it is very negligible. I think I was getting 6-8 down on ST.net w/o tether and 5-7 w/ tether. I really don't pay that close attention to up speeds. Honestly, I might dump my government run crap internet(cable MI-connection) and just tether. It's better than anything my crap cable company can do.
[Thunderbolt General] Russ36363:
I ran a few tests tethered and I was pulling 15 down but only 6 up. At edge of 4g though. 2_3 bars
[Thunderbolt General] GrdLock:
I get around 20-30 down and 5-10 up in the browser-based speedtest.net, or when tethered.
[Thunderbolt General] aznxjz:
Tethered using Mobile Hotspot.

Both Speakeasy and Speedtest, I get ~16mbps down and ~6mbps up

Actually download tests i get about 1.2 mb/s (torrent) down and 250 kb/s (dropbox) up
[Thunderbolt General] milan03:
Between 20-40mbps down off peak and 7-20mbps during high usage peak hours here in NYC. Upload between 2.5-7mbps.

See my sig.
[Thunderbolt General] distortedloop:
Use a hub if you're out of USB ports....?

Will the USB port charge the phone while it's tethering via cable? Some phones I've had in the past it wouldn't.

If it does, is it charging at a fast enough rate to match the drain of being tethered? Again, one of my previous smartphones couldn't keep up with the drain when plugged into the USB port...I had to wall charger it and do the wireless tethering if I was going for extended periods.
[Thunderbolt General] WhiteSites:
My buddy got 46 Mb/s down, and 26 Mb/s Up. Is anyone else experiencing these kinds of speeds? This was using the Speedtest app for android. See my blog for visuals
[Thunderbolt General] engagedtosmile:
App is bugged. Use the website.

My speeds in downtown Seattle.
[Thunderbolt General] machostallion:
Here's another option for speed tests in the browser.

http://testmy.net/mobile/download
[Thunderbolt General] milan03:
The SpeedTest app is unusable on thunderbolt. See my signature for usb tethered speeds.
[Thunderbolt General] r68camaro:
Another issue could be the speed of the source site. If their connection is slow, doesn't matter how fast LTE is.
[Thunderbolt General] fwhomeboy:
With that test, I get between 150kbps and 650kbps. My phone is horrible. 3G should be faster I think. Help.
[Thunderbolt General] milan03:
I'd recommend non mobile version of that site since 12MB may not be the appropriate file for LTE speeds. On regular site you can get 50MB file to test with.

Also upload test crashes the browser regularly.
[Wildfire General] yiannizi:
Hi guys. I use WiFi a lot but I have 500MB for free to use now so I tried using it by enabling mobile network and nothing actually happens. Why is this? Is there a problem ?
[Wildfire General] ketomin:
if you want to use mobile networking instead of wifi, you need do turn wifi off.

if both mobile networking and wifi are enabled, your phone will use wifi.
[Wildfire General] yiannizi:
Thank you for responding. I found the issue. I had WiFi off of course but I had to reboot my phone. Many wildfire users have this problem. Thank you anyway

[Windows Phone 7 General] Floods7:
I have not unlocked yet since I found no real reason too. But when I heard about the reg edit that enables a type of mulitasking I am really intrested. I am busy as **** with school work until Thursday but I want to get that multi-tasking. My question is that when you install NoDo it disables Chevron and re locks the phone. When it does that will you loose your multitasking as well? (if previously installed before NoDo)??
[Windows Phone 7 General] rajivshahi:
Nodo already comes with it i guess.... not sure but... still waiting for my update to show up...
[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
If the pre-update is any indication, it won't re-write your registry. I had numerous registry settings set before the pre-update and they were preserved after it was installed. I don't think NoDo is going to remove apps or re-write registry if you Chevron-unlocked, though I could certainly be wrong.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Floods7:
Is there another way to unlock besides Chevron?
[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
Being a developer whose identity has been verified and using the official unlocker tool.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tanders04:
I'm pretty sure you're going to lose all of the homebrew stuff.

At this point I'm not sure that its worth it just for copy and paste...
[Windows Phone 7 General] blacksoul0:
NoDo is more than just copy/paste. It has some important bug fixes/stability improvements.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
i Have nodo update,before i Install it i do the hack to Have desydratation & change the value (3=>to 0)

after my phone update when i open games,tap the Windows button to return on the home screen and come back to the games,it don't resume instantly.

so Nodo kill the hack resume
[Windows Phone 7 General] tanders04:
Eh... its mostly cut and paste. None of the other stuff is really that bad IMO. I'm not waiting that long for programs to load and not much of my time is wasted in searching for apps. IMO, what I'm losing isn't making up for what I'm getting.

Now maybe when mango comes out...

But hopefully by then there is either something to replace chevron or an official MS solution.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Firetop:
Hey how did you get the Registry editor and where did you find the path in the Registry?
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
Actually you don't lose any homebrew stuff, the registry editor still works.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
This is different from my experience. I did change the registry key before uodate and my games still resume instantly after Nodo applied.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thealanshow:
Maybe it differs from phone to phone, but my phone feels like a completely new phone. Apps run faster, the marketplace search is smarter, stability is unmatched, and who can forget how amazing copy and paste is. Different strokes for different folks I guess, but I think it is well worth updating. Plus, if you developer unlock it you don't lose anything. Chevron is great, don't get me wrong, but every student should take advantage of the fact that developer unlocking their phone is both free and supported by Microsoft.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoulon:
I recently stumbled across this while looking for clock widgets. And was wondering if its possible for the Dev's and or someone to port this mod.

1) Just a port for now?

2) Maybe all the dev's Can begin adding this as a default mod included in their ROMs?

Any suggestions?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentdr8:
You'll want to use the epson-escpr CUPS driver.

EDIT: If you've got root on your webtop, you can install the cupsddk-drivers package which should support your printer. You may need to configure it manually in CUPS though. Very easy to do via the CUPS web interface, that can be enabled if you uncomment the Listen line in /osh/etc/cups/cupsd.conf and restart cups.

Please tell me someone is interested in updating the SuperNova Rom to EC05. This is my favorite rom by far. Any takers out there?
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
The original developer is the only person who should be updating it, or in the event they have moved on to other projects they should be contacted by someone who wishes to take charge of it.
[Epic 4G General] ruze:
Also, what happened to Quantum ROM?

???
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
If you want to know why a ROM hasn't been updated ask the Dev.
[Epic 4G General] Neptune5k:
Well in hopes that Nova sees this, I couldn't agree more. I tend to float between Supernova and Midnight, but I really love the theming work and little touches Nova puts into his Rom.

Nova, lets hope you're hiatus isn't permanent!
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
People, instead of bumping this thread endlessly, send a developer a PM if you really want to know if there are going to be anymore updates to a ROM.
[Epic 4G General] KL4V1CL3:

As for a454nova and Supernova, he has been posting every now and then. Look up his profile.
[Droid X General] jrobin:
I was surprised to find that the My Verizon app shows the amount of data you have used from your tethering allowance. However I don't think it is completely accurate. :p

I have just activated and used it very little just making sure it works. So far I have used .018GB. This seems reasonable. However after drilling down I see "Warning data allowance exceeded!" Apparently Verizon thinks I have downloaded the internet since I activated tethering last week (over 1 million GB). :eek:

Think I will have a problem on my bill?
[Droid X General] mattmartin77:
well that blows. call verizon and ask em about it. or root and tether for free using wireless tether
[Droid X General] jrobin:
I think its just a bug in their client app. The details show correctly and the web page is fine. I may go ahead and make sure I dont have a 20 million dollar bill coming.
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
I don't think that amount of data is even possible in a week over 3g. Even with many users connected
[Droid X General] mav3rick478:
Holy moly batman, that's a lot of data! It reminds me of Office Space when they out the decimal in the wrong spot if the worm they wrote.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reaverofdawn:
I have noticed a few small issues with my phone and was curious if anyone else was experiencing the same issues or not.

First off it appears dust has settled behind the glass on the front facing camera, doesn't seem to effect the picture, but still annoying.

And as for my second issue, it involves the main camera. Some of the pictures I take, probably every 4th or 5th image, ends up as a broken file, unreadable by the phone or my computer. They show up in the phones image library, but I am unable to view them, and when I attempt to view them on the computer, i get this message "Windows Photo Viewer can't display this picture because the file is empty."

Is anyone else experiencing either of these issues?
[XPERIA X8 General] Aiduharan:
Yesterday there was some update on my phone and i updated and now i cannot update anything. I tried flashing roms and everything but it aint working anymore!

jk, but if there is gonna be an update then do not, because any update se is gonna offer is not gonna beat these custom roms and it might lock ur ability to flash roms!

Did you re-root your phone? After the update you need to root it again.

hi,has anyboby upgrade to the new O2 (UK): 3.14.206.1 rom if so,could you please kindly tell us if there's any difference or what that improvement between this and the privious one which was 1.72.xx

most rergads.thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyin_fish:
So far i've found:

New QuickGPS

Update to Email - can now delete messages from main screen options

New radio - Better

New Opera - Worse, it crashes a lot, ive gone back to 9.7 v35810

Seems quicker overall

Battery drain for me is slighty worse, but manageable

FlYiN
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otigoc:
So far I've found the opposite, I'm finding Opera (10, admittedly) faster and more stable and I'm finding that the battery life has actually improved due the tweaks in the way that it uses the system resources more efficiently.

There's new volume options when using the hardware keys, you can change the system and ring volumes separately. The "screen" option has been disabled in the system settings menu, after a little probing HTC revealed that this was because the new ROM was improved to a point where screen alignment and cleartype were no longer needed! I didn't believe that for a second, but after a quick change in the registry to bring back the option, I found that re-enabling cleartype actually made fonts look worse :eek: So HTC were definitely onto something there.

As mentioned above QuickGPS has been updated, the new version is a minor improvement but an improvement none the less.

I've also found the Twitter tab to be a lot more reliable when it comes to updating as I was having problems before.

There's also been some minor speed improvements. Before the only time I was having any slowdown at all was when viewing the year in the Calendar tab... Possibly due to the sheer number of items in my calendar, but now it's as smooth as anything else.

So overall, it's more reliable/stable, speed/smoothness has been finely ironed out and there's several minor improvements across the board resulting in an overall more usable experience free from niggles I previously was only half aware of. I'm glad I upgraded, that's all there is to it.

:confused:thanks to all of you that shared the experience but,unfortunately the new uk o2 rom 3.14 didn`t work for me as it surppose to because,i had few issues after i installed it where sometimes we could barely hear each other when on call,memory never changed as it remained 448 other than 500+,responding on the tourching screen was very poor that i was getting fastrating sometimes that even when you end fone call you realise the fone doesn`t respond untill 4seconds later,the scrolling wasn`t good enough especially on the setting menu.So i had no choice but to switch back to 1.72
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
because its a stock rom, it doesnt unlock the hidden memory

you probably still have an spl that isnt 3.03.xxxx (2.08,hspl for example) , , 3.14 roms are totally unstable without spl 3.03.xxxx

problem solved.

Nice story! I feel your pain. There's a Cliq xt waiting to serve backup duty in the event that my G2 meets an early demise. If I ever need to put it into service, rooting will be a necessary step.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tun4f1sh:
Nice read, and my condolences on your loss :P Hopefully they overnight that RMA to you ASAP.

Before the G2, I was using a $20 prepaid phone right off the shelf. I was super frugal and never thought it would be worth it to dish out the extra coin for the data plan. There's no ****ing going back now.
[G2 and Desire Z General] nandesho:
Excellently composed! I believe you have summed up the feelings most of the community here! I hope you get your replacement back as soon as possible! I too had a dreaded briq, divorced it for a MyTouch 1.2 and arrived here at the G2. Unfortunately I have no backup phone.. All my old devices move to greener pastures where less the less tech savvy roam.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Deleted member 2182971:
I do feel your pain! I recently traded my Vibrant for my G2, and as I had no previous trade history on XDA, I had to send my phone first. The week with my cliq xt was interesting! First thing I did was rooted it and got 2.1 running on it. It still wouldn't play Angry Birds, but it was enough droid to get me through the week.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhilberg:
Thanks for the story. I have a Cliq too, which I finally got tired of in January and picked up a G2. If it wasn't for the devs like HandlerExploit, Travis James, toxigenicpoem, J_r0dd, adlx, sudoadam, kb7sqi, and others, I would have dumped it long before. Most of the devs were walking away from it, so I figured it was time to move on. Although I follow csolanol, br3ttu, and ngiordano on Twitter and see they are still working hard on it, getting CM ported over (CM4Morrison).

Motorola really screwed up on that device. Worse off though are the international Cliq users and the CliqXT users. They're stuck on 1.5. What a debacle.

I chose the G2 specifically because of the manufacturer and the dev support. Will probably be running this device for some time, love it.
