[Galaxy S II General] Crucio_:
I seem to be having a problem with the tagging on my FLAC files. i have tried using KIES to insure it was a problem with media monkey (which i have been using most of the time), basicly it isnt displaying the tags for FLAC properly if at all. most annoying thing for me is track order, it just puts them in any order it wants and it is really annoying :(

i transfered over an album in mp3 format and the tags work fine ;/

anyone have a fix or an idea about that :)

thanks

[Galaxy S II General] NZtechfreak:
I'll bne ripping one of my albums to Flac to try it out for my review, will let you know results. Have you tried another player, PowerAMP maybe?
[Galaxy S II General] KLoNe1:
I've always had trouble with FLAC on my Galaxy S; only PowerAMP could show the tags correctly. I'm insanely meticulous with my tagging as well.
[Galaxy S II General] Crucio_:
Same i hate things that are tagged baddly, i dont understand it i think it takes more time to tag something badly than to do it right :P

I used power amp to play my files, it displays track information and coverart and the usual stuff.

The odd thing is if i long press a track and go to info i can see the track numbers listed there and they are correct, they just dont display in the correct order and i cant see a way to sort them in to the right sequence ;/

thanks for the replys also ^^

Hi so about a week ago I flashed the 2.3.3 gingerbread bootloaders and stock gingerbread rom using this method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045734

Then I flashed GR-11, then Continuum v5.3, and then Perception II Beta 3. Then I decided to flash back to stock 2.1 using Odin one click. But now I want to flash the 2.3.3 bootloaders and gingerbread stock rom again by using the same method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1045734), but now everytime i try to reflash them, it fails.

Just wondering - did you have the phone in download mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsilvan55:
When i had it plugged into odin, yeah. My phone doesnt have the 3 button fix so i had to use adb reboot download and then i disconnected it and opened odin and plugged it back in. Should i just use my jig to put it into download mode instead of using adb because that could interrupt it or something?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] boricuajj:
I did a search, and I couldn't find anything on it.

But I wanted to use my G2x as a memory device for the xbox 360 (to move game saves and such). But when I plug in the phone and enable usb mode, it doesn't show up under "storage devices", where it should be if the xbox recognized it.

I already tried formatting the drive to fat32, and still no luck... Any help? :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
you need to install drivers to mount storage on a pc, so I'm guessing it won't work on a 360 for that reason ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lightning Blue:
Try "mass storage only mode" under SD Card and Phone storage in settings!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] boricuajj:
Ah. That does make sense. :/

I did try the solution that the poster above mentioned, but it still didn't work. Looks like I'm off to walmart to go buy myself a sandisk usb. :p

If anyone else has a solution or any ideas, it's never too late to post them. Maybe someone else will try in the future. :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lightning Blue:
Ah darn, I had heard that would mount the external SD card on a PC without any drivers, but haven't tried it myself yet. You are using an external SD card?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spoo76:
Its not just the drivers. I know for a fact My 360 would read my stock G1 and with the earliest cyanogen roms, posibly as well with my N1.

once the rumors started about the "zune phone" which became the windows 7 phone media sync broke and xbox wouldnt see any of the phones. long story short M$ blocked you so W7 phones have an advantage
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vad710:
My car has a USB port and I can plugin to it USB thumb drives and I could also plugin my old MyTouch 3G to it and I could play music off of them.

I cannot play music on my phone through the USB port. I assumed it was because of the drivers issue, which is REALLY unfortunate because that was great functionality...

Anyone know if these issues persist after rooting and loading a Cyanogen rom?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spoo76:
That isnt what this thread is about. this is about the ability for xbox to read android phones. it used to, but now it does not.

your issue could be one of a few things. anything from your specific rom to making sure mass storage mode is checked or mounting the USB when prompted. Im not sure how yours works as I prefer the AUX on my head unit
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vad710:
Apologies, I searched the forums and stumbled onto this, as I read through i thought it could be related and put in a reply.

I never get the prompt on my phone to mount it...which is what prompted me to search the forums. I'll keep looking
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dcam1075:
Is there an application that will put the G2X into car mode? Where the phone goes into landscape, the phone defaults to speaker and the screen doesn't time out?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mapin0518:
Not that I'm aware of, but if you have stereo bluetooth in your car (A2DP), you can set the car home app to launch automatically when the phone connects to the car's bluetooth.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] boldfacelies:
You can do this in Locale. Its a poweruser software and well worth it if you use your phone as a business tool.

Greetings fellow forumers. I would like to thank everyone who reads this and responds, for taking time out to help me out.

I am a very happy Droid X user and I am loving it everyday. I have a few things to make my experience a little better and I am hoping someone could help me out.

I am looking for a case that will fit the extended battery and also fix in the Moto car dock.

I currently do not have a case but looking for something that will give me a firm grip while I use the phone. I have read great reviews on the extended battery and I am going to get it.

So to round out what I am looking for:

Case with a firm grip that works with the extended battery

Case that works with extended battery and fits the Moto car dock

Again thank you for helping out a poor newb. I just can't find the right information by searching the web.

Should I wait for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 which comes out June 8th. Or should I get the acer a500?
[Acer Iconia A500] lrs421:
I'm not a Samsung fan but their new tab looks promising. I love the A500 but the Samsung will likely be an easier nut to crack if you want custom roms and kernels.

Sent from Desire HD or Inspire 4G or whatever this thing is called via premium XDA app.
[Acer Iconia A500] michaelg1030:
Depends what you needs are. The Acer is a nice tablet, but if you can do with out the full USB host and don't mind paying a little more, the tab 10.1 looks like the better choice.
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
I wont be installing anything custom on it. I think overall samsung is better than acer. Is that correct?
[Acer Iconia A500] lrs421:
Not really. Running stock they're pretty much the same. Samsung is a now an update partner with Google so updates may come quickly.
[Acer Iconia A500] michaelg1030:
I wouldn't read to much in to that, everyone knows Samsung has been the worst with pushing updates, not to say that can't change.

But yes HC is all the same, so the overall feel will be the same, but the Samsung is much lighter and features IPS I think.

With that said, I returned my Acer only because of the lack of customization for the time being. If this changes I'd buy it again. Until than I'm hoping a rooted nook color will suit my needs.
[Acer Iconia A500] bog3nator:
According to acers website an update is suppose to be coming in june
[Acer Iconia A500] lrs421:
There you have it.

Yeah doesn't it say that for the specs in regards to playing 1080p video?
[Acer Iconia A500] michaelg1030:
Just read the Samsung doesn't have USB out, HDMI out, SD, nor microsd.......fail
[Acer Iconia A500] lrs421:
Ugh. Fail indeed. The hdmi and USB were big selling points for me.
[Acer Iconia A500] cdkizzle:
I'm in the same boat as you. On one hand, I really do love the Samsung's form factor. At the same time, it doesn't have HDMI out, USB, or microSD. However, Samsung is supposed to be a part of that new policy Google announced today which would guarantee updates for 18 months, plus it will be easier for the devs here to crack. I don't know how good Acer will be with updates.

Ugh, I don't know what to do either. I was GOING to buy the Acer today, but saw the Samsung and decided to wait....AHHHHHH
[Acer Iconia A500] panda.bear:
I would wait for the 3.1 update with better USB support. When it lands I think a lot of people are going to regret not buying a device with usb functionality like the a500.
[Acer Iconia A500] Dalrimple:
You're gonna want that HDMI... its mirroring on your TV. Lots of ways to use that besides watching movies...
[Acer Iconia A500] sgdossey:
I have debated all this myself. Always new devices on the horizon. I really like the Acer and am keeping it. I just got the case from staples and love it. USB is huge for me.

Is DLNA the same or at least as good as HDMI out?
[Acer Iconia A500] edgie168:
sigh.

the 10.1v is confirmed to not have a microsd slot, however the 10.1 more than likely will.
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
it has a micro sd card. You are looking at the 10.1v
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
There's no harm in waiting. If you can wait, wait. When the Samsung comes you'll be able to make a choice based on what's actually there vs. rumor and speculation.
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
Well its not really rumor. It has a set release date and specifications.
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
Rumor in terms of how it works/operates. Since it's not in the general public's hands except for the limited editions gone out to Google IO attendees, we don't have an idea of the performance, quirks, etc.
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
The iconia a500 quirk is the gps. Which I think is a major flaw in till it is fixed properly.

I just confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 has a micro sd card slot.

This is a nice link http://androidcommunity.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-revealed-20110322/
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
The galaxy tab 10.1 says it has a (aGPS) Not GPS but aGPS. So is it different than GPS. Does it require a Internet connection?
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
aGPS just means it's assisted by a data connection. Although the Acer is advertised as having GPS I have a feeling it's aGPS as well because of how much faster it locks on to satellites when data is enabled.

aGPS should be able to work fine without data, it will just take longer to lock on to satellites, a matter of 3m vs. maybe 6 or 7 or more depending on clouds, etc.
[Acer Iconia A500] cdkizzle:
Okay so I thought about it and decided that i wanted the USB. Today I bought the a500 from staples and am loving it so far. Posting now from it, via browser-. So far, good impressions.
[Acer Iconia A500] lrs421:
Enjoy. It really does have a great out of box experience. I rooted mines but just to freeze some bloat. If Acer comes through with 3.1 Ill be happy for a year :)

Not to rain on your parade, but the WiFi only version of the GT 10.1 does not have a microSD slot. It looks like the GT 10.1 3G model sim slot will have a microSD slot. The GT 10.1 given out at Google I/O is wifi only, no sd slot and is the same modell # GT-P7510 that cleared FCC last week.
[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:
In general, my answer to "should I wait" for tablets is Yes.

Tablets are still pretty much luxury items, so if you don't want one RIGHT NOW, wait to see if something better comes along. The new Samsung look sweet but a bit pricier. The Toshiba look too expensive. The ASUS looks too out of stock :rolleyes:

By early summer more tablets will be available, and we'll have a much better idea of how well Acer's going to support the A500.

I on the other hand had have it NOW! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
Yes it does. Looked at phone arena. And just saw a video of the wifi version with a slot. But if the three places that said it does are lieing than it will be a android iPad.
[Acer Iconia A500] yhzhrm:
Sorry about, that's the big question over on the xda Galaxy forum. Indications are wifi only does not have microSd slot. I guess we have to wait for confirmation from Samsung. The microSD slot is what makes it different by allowing user to add their own extra storage.

I would not buy a tablet without the SD or microSD slot.

Here's hoping for the best.
[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
I agree. Its just getting on my nerves that I can't find a tablet with out something major wrong with it. It wouldn't make since to put a slot on the 3g and not the wifi. It would cost them more money to have to produce 2 physically different 10.1s
[Acer Iconia A500] Vintage144:
Theres all this talk about the special google only club,sorry folks if Acer made a computer with googles OS they have the support of Google ,the update will come ,i love getting updates fast too but until the devs open this baby up we will have to wait,its brand new,relax Junes like 20 days away

Well, I gotta tell ya , I run Windows 7 and Ubuntu and if I had every update I dont even think my desktop would run correctly , Just because theres an update doesnt mean you have to have it !

Some updates are really needed , I agree when an OS is new , many times there a small issues that need fixing , in general though , I think the tablet functions well enough to keep , its the same as my WP7 phone , I really didnt need all those updates that people cried about , most were security related fixes , important yes , but unless your in on the engineering you wouldnt notice it!

I say enjoy it ,unless your beta testing the product , just have fun with it! I see people rooting there devices only to find out ("what was the purpose of rooting it"), someone posted how ,so many did it, Android has a notorius following of noobs who have no reason to even root it, once there they are lost!

[Acer Iconia A500] outdooz:
If there was a android tablet than ran as well as the iPad everybody would go for the android tablet. But theres no android tablet that doesn't have a major problem. Apple does really good job on making sure there are no problems. Their policy is too push updates out altleast every 6 months. There is no android tablet manafacture that does that. But in end the iPad still sucks due to the lack of custimization. Icons get boring after a day.

Thanks in advance.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bauxite:
I think it's in the update.zip package, as bootloader.bin
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ydaraishy:
NO, that's the bootloader. The boot.img is the kernel.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wsbsteven:
I saw that in there but I decided to flash back to 3.0.1 without wiping my data (the apps really don't like that) and I'm reupdating to 3.1 now. I'll post the boot file when I'm back up and running in case someone else needs it.

Well I forgot I lost root in the manual update so I can't extract it yet. At least you can revert to 3.0.1 if you make the mistake I did and reflash 3.1.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekuru:
One problem

I get Permission Denied, since I lost root when I applied the 3.1 update.

I was curious, about to try flashing koush's rootboot.img and getting root back; however I wanted a backup of the 3.1 boot.img as well, and only found the boot.img.p in the update and I'm not quite sure if that will do me any good.

At any rate, hope someone can run that command for you (and me)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ydaraishy:
The boot.img.p is a binary patch that's applied to the original boot. There's an applypatch tool in the Android sources that can apply binary patches, so if you have the stock boot from the previous version and can apply the patch, you have a 3.1 boot.img without doing anything.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wsbsteven:
Don't flash rootboot, that is what I did that screwed me up. We'll have to wait for another root img to flash that is updated for 3.1.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekuru:
Excellent, thanks. Going to be on my way doing that, will return if successful.. assuming applypatch can be run in windows, if not I will have to dust off an older ubuntu notebook and get started.

boot image

*EDIT: Thought I should point out that this is from the Verizon 3G Xoom*

Okay so here is the boot.img that is the result of the patch.

http://www.multiupload.com/LFUP6NY7A7

Since applypatch needs the SHA1 values of the source/target files, I took them from the updater script:

apply_patch("EMMC:/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/boot:8388608:17c91cba04ae40ebdc28cd7a5cbd9eb5e9bb33fd:8388608:e95341ff1b5f5cb2e246f028cc127083f14e0a40",
"-", e95341ff1b5f5cb2e246f028cc127083f14e0a40, 8388608,
17c91cba04ae40ebdc28cd7a5cbd9eb5e9bb33fd, package_extract_file("patch/boot.img.p"));

Then I wound up with this command, which I ended up running on my evo with the applypatch from the cyanogenmod update package, since my linux notebook wasn't happy being unused for so long.

# applypatch boot.img boot31.img e95341ff1b5f5cb2e246f028cc127083f14e0a40 8388608 17C91CBA04AE40EBDC28CD7A5CBD9EB5E9BB33FD:boot.img.p

And that resulted in the file I have uploaded, boot31.img. it matches the CRC from the install script, so we should be good to go.

Yeah, I'm a doofus, the android sources build a native binary, not a host binary. (You don't even need CM, because it's part of the standard Android tool suite).

But I'm glad you got that working. :)

Guess it kind of worked out then -- I never even got to try on my computer, just thought about using the CM version since thats what was on the handset and I didn't know if I would have issues with an official build or whatnot.. and it just sort of worked. I can luck out occasionally it seems.. now back to OP's original thought, how to get root back :D
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ydaraishy:
Easy. Split the new boot image into kernel and ramdisk, and change ro.secure back, then wrap it all back together.

(Given that your 'nix machine is out of commission, I'm trying to do this for you now.)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ydaraishy:
Here, I hope this works for rootz, usual disclaimers apply. I can't test it myself because I don't have a device, though, sorry :(

(But you should have a stock image to work with, though, and if all else fails, flash HRI66 and reapply the update.)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dch921:
Just flashed it and booting now will let you know if this works

Thanks

Edit: That works. Once I rebooted I just was able to adb remount and push su to /system/bin and chmod it. Now have root on 3.1 Xoom.

If it is in fact the Verizon 3G XOOM, you flash this file root31.img: (thanks ydaraishy!)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13673863&postcount=18

Make sure you are in the bootloader (adb reboot bootloader) then once you are, fastboot flash boot (filename). So:

fastboot flash boot root31.img

And once you reboot, you can fix the perms/push su back.
