[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dreadnought001:
One option you might want to explore is to use a combination of the Air Video Server and Mirage Beta from the Android Market.

Air Video is an app on the iphone/ipad that I used for a long time (before switching to Android) and basically does on the fly transcoding on your PC to stream to your device. This means it can show all file formats without the need for conversion. i've tried the Air Video server/Mirage app out on my phone (HTC Desire) and it works very well. I've just noticed that the Mirage app has now been updated to support tegra processors/Honeycomb. I would try it out myself but I'm at work at the moment and can't install anything on my computer :( . Anyhow, just another option to consider...

I cannot mount SMB share from UPnPlay and I do not have root....

I am trying to stream divx from my NAS server that is DLNA compliant.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] elmasguapo:
How are you streaming from Samba shares with File Expert? When I try to open an .avi file from the network, I can only open it with the Browser or Dolphin HD. (If I copy that same file to my Transformer, File Expert will offer Moboplayer as an application to open it with, though.)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] PublicJohnDoe:
I open File Expert, go to Network, click on the machine I'm interested in, click on the shared folder with the movies I wanna watch.

When I click on the .avi file, the Browser opens for a half-second, and then the system gives me the choice of which app to use to open the movie (in my case, Mobo Player or Rock Player).
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jrichar3:
This is one of the biggest uses I have for my tablet. I would like something like audiogalaxy but had the vlc stream and convert working on my Evo, but won't buffer on the transformer. Werid I know. Also tried using mobo player but it didn't play the mp4 as it fast forward through it. Didn't try any of my mkv files.

I´m wondering if anybody knows any program i can use to have some kind of status indication of the current connection on the phone, forwarded to my computor when i share my phones internet connection with either wifi or usb.

You know when you use like a 3g usb modem, a connection program is often required and bundled with, in which you have a status bar or something..

I rooted my phone a few months back and it's slow switching between a few screens, mostly from calling or web browsing back to home. Painfully slow, sometimes up to a minute. It's always been like this and I just want to know if there's steps I can take to speed it up or if it's just a memory problem. I used Cyanogen 6.1 to upgrade to android 2.2.1

Baseband62.505.20.17u_2.22.19.26I

[G1 General] flyboyovyick:
G1's are just slow!

Try keeping it lite. Uninstalling apps, keeping the essential ones, app2sd?

Don't have loads of widgets on your homescreen.

Task manager, i recommend ATK.

Hope this helps.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
If you are up to it, flash different ROM. There are ROM out there that is lightweight and fast. My personal favorites is SuperAosp. Currently they just released SuperAosp 6.0 that is fast and also best on bettery life.
[G1 General] Chocolate Columbo:
Well, it's slow compared to what's out there, but it isn't "one minute to switch apps" slow for me... without a task manager or auto-killer. Every time I wipe I install nine apps from Market, and ten from SD card. They may sit back and be inactive if I've opened them, but they don't just all run at once and slow down to "one minute each switch"...

I'd agree with the widgets on homescreen though. I tend to avoid them out of preference, but they 'can' eat memory faster than we can down a beer. I don't have anything locked in memory except Messaging. Depending on what I'm switching from, it doesn't usually take that long to switch. If it's something like Skyfire -then no matter what I'm doing, the G1 just dies and Skyfire force closes pretty quickly. It just cannot handle such a memory hog. If I play SNesoid, I never see a force close and it takes seconds to switch. I don't fully understand it, but consider how resource heavy your apps are.
[G1 General] AndDiSa:
Seems to me you have swap enabled and now it's swapping ...

Try to run without swap / compcache and see if this helps.
[G1 General] chitin:
Reducing the widgets helped a lot. It's very usable now until I need to upgrade to 4G. Thanks for the recommendation. What is swap enabled?
[G1 General] Smokexz:
Might I recommend trying a different ROM? On my Samsung Vibrant, I had stock TouchWiz and it went slow as hell, I tried another custom ROM and it works great. Much much MUCH faster, trust me get a different ROM, ask around for the best most light weight one, Super AOSP w what someone recommended here? Try that.

Def check froyobylazlo 5.2 you'll need the new radio/spl hack by ezterry but its soo worth it. Auto memory manager helps out greatly too cuz its based off androids internal tasker instead of just another program made from someone else. With that app your g1 will fly even on default settings, on extreme....lol thank me later
[G1 General] rareasasparagus:
My G1 got slower recently, but not one minute slower. I've been really good about not installing anything except I configured titanium backup to run automatically, but the home screen has been crashing a lot too for some reason.

All I did was create three shortcuts for calling and texting someone. Those aren't the same as widgets are they?

there are a lot 3d mmo's available for android right now (pocket legends, dungeon defenders, etc), but I'm missing something...

the fun of playing a maplestory, dragonsaga, wonderking - like game on android.

there are some sidescrollers out there replica island for example (wich rocked when it was released). but i'm missing the community, guild, party, etc. thing

Replica island prooved that it was possible to build levels and stunning scrolling backgrounds + effects and the speed needed.

To run maplestory as it was 1 year ago (before all the new classes, 1024x700 support and additional layers in the background were released) would only need a little bit more speed and videocard than nexus devices currently have, and considering the fact that screens are not at least 17 inch on phones and tabs... graphics could be stripped down a bit.

if there's a programmer among you who sees future in this, Ill gladly help that person with the design of the levels, characters, objects and interface.

Hello everyone, a few months I have a problem serious enough on my X10i, in short, virtually broke the base of USB so I can not connect the cell to pc cable to charge the battery I solved by buying a Charger table then apart from the inconvenience of turning off the cell and charge the battery separately and then with cell off, then I have this resolved, to exchange data from PC to memory card I bought a USB adapter for the memory card and I can safely transfer of everything, but I am unable to change baseband logically as far as I know you need the cable connected to the PC.

Here I basically explained my problem, now I ask you if you know (and if there is) a way to change baseband in some other way, because I intension to try the custom kernel.

I currently have 2.1.54 and the baseband so I can not make changes to the kernel as for now are still at 2.0.52

Thank you in advance!

Hi all

I am looking at bidding on a Neon 200 on ebay so that I can create a ROM for the Neon 200/Touch Dual 850 - this would mainly be for your guys (but it would also give me another NextG phone as a backup).

Are there enough Neon 200 users to warrant me outlaying for a device to build a Neon 200 ROM?

Please let me know by posting in this thread.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] d_train:
Well all Neon 200 users, I am sorry to say that I was outbid at the 11th hour and lost the auction - The price ended up going way over my budget, so sorry, I won't be getting a Neon 200 to build a ROM just yet.

If there are enough people that may want to assist by contributing, then maybe I will win the auction next time, but when people start bidding over a hundred dollars on a 3+yr old phone, they can have it.

I see another auction that has just started that I am watching - it has 2 Neon 200's, one working, one faulty - but the starting build is $89.00 and even that is too high for me - maybe I am wrong, maybe that is the going rate.

Anyway, watch this space, maybe soon.

Having taken the plunge for my first android phone namely the SE X10 on a standard rom and already rooted it, I'm just wondering if any of you would like to give me some tips on what to do next with this phone having being a wm 6.1 user for many years I'm at a bit of a loss with this one I've never used linux or any of the derivatives of that software which I'm lead to believe android is based, so pretty much clueless with this one kind regards Mcpaddy.

[XPERIA X10 General] Evernothing:
Basically you need to decide whether you want to go with a totally custom ROM, or modify the SE 2.1 ROM.

If you go total custom there are some guides to do it as telmoabff linked above.

I chose to just mod the 2.1 SE ROM and there are many different options you can go with, also many guides which will help you out.

You can get some very good customization / performance out of the 2.1 SE ROM...however, to get the absolute best performance / totally custom you will have to go with one of the user developed ROMs.

(Since I am kind-of new to this as well someone please correct me if I am wrong.)
[XPERIA X10 General] Asa2303:
I would root, install xrecovery and then z's freex10 b4 froyo rom as its the simplest and most stable rom i have tried. Once you have it running good then make a backup and try out any of the roms that float your boat, you can always just restore back to z's rom if things go wrong. Very hard to break the x10 have put mine in bootloop bout 6 times trying out the cool stuff on here but always been able to fix it!

Just my opinion tho :)
[XPERIA X10 General] CMoney87:
FreeX10 is the base for which all of the X10 Froyo ROMs are built, if you want something that has more tweaks and features Wolfbreak's CyanogenMod 6.1.3 ROM is a good one with a lot of support and features. Id go custom if I were you mainly because of the fact that 2.1 doesnt support Flash or app2sd which are 2 features that really make android great.

[XPERIA X10 General] zhoustanley:
If you want to stick with stock you should sysctl and jit along with few build.prop mods. Just search the forums. I would recommend the Z's freex10 rom for speed and stability. Tripmiui rom for something different.

Hi folks,

Been searching for a hack or tool to disable usb charging while connecting device to laptop usb port to prolong battery life. But to my disappointment, there's none at the moment :(

Aren't there any solution for this at all from the developers?

So far, the only tool that I've googled is USB Charge Commander but that doesn't work on Galaxy S :(

It's designed for ZTE Blade/Orange San Francisco handset only.

Appreciate for any tips given. Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterTRL:
Sassy,

there is no need for such a tool. Since you are using a Lithium-ion battery this would NOT prolong your battery life. This type of battery has no such thing as a memory effect. The battery will take no damage if you charge it every time. You don´t have to wait till it is fully empty. Actually, if you discharge your battery completely every time, it may cause shorter battery life in the end...

Have Fun

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rustyx3:
How about this for a reason:

I don't want the phone to charge off of my laptop which itself is running off of a battery, but I do need a USB connection for application debugging. My laptop's battery does not last nearly as long as my phone, so I would prefer that the phone does not charge via USB when my laptop is running on batteries.

No solution?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistachia:
USB charging shortens battery life

Indeed, I've been looking for such a solution of USB connection without charging for my Galaxy S. I also came across a suggestion of clipping the power +5V wire of the USB cable which I believe would not work as that would disable the detection of USB connection.

Back to the battery life of lithium battery, we know that partial discharge is fine as there is no memory effect. However, every discharging cycle matters and counts if we believe the info from the Battery University page, Table 2 (batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries). According to the test and assumptions, if we charge the battery at 10% of Depth of Discharging (or approx. 90% of capacity), we have 4700 cycles before the battery is worn out. Yeah, 4700 seems a big number. It is not that big if we connect our phone via USB to a PC very often.

We don't know the exact no. of discharge/charge cycles a li-ion battery on our mobile phone can tolerates before its end of life. If you believe EVERY CYCLE COUNTS, you'd better find a solution.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garbz:
Typical laptop batteries are around the 4.4Ah mark, the phone draws 95mA from the USB port while charging. This means you could charge your phone continuously for 46 hours off a typical laptop. You won't notice the difference in practical usage at all. This is about the same amount of power as your laptop CPU doing actual work for a few minutes. There are many other factors that have a far greater impact on your laptop battery than charging a phone.

If you look at the table in detail you'll find that 4700 cycles at 10% recharge is roughly 10 times the 500 cycles at 100% recharge. It's an almost linear relationship and there's nothing to be gained by letting your phone discharge further rather than putting it back on charge when it drops to 10%. The cycles aren't a counter after which suddenly everything stops.

Also they are hammering their battery pretty hard. A 1C charge is roughly 4 times higher than what the SGS battery experiences. The faster the charge the lower the life, so expect your phone to last longer than 4700 cycles.

On top of everything with replacement batteries costing a whole $5 it's not worth losing sleep over.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistachia:
Yeah, you're right. If a replacement battery costs that little, even my quoted analysis really matters, it does not worth 'counting' at all! Just use the way you want and make sure you got one replacement before it's out of market.
