[General Topics] Phone-newb:
Greetings all,

I have a quick question about video compatibility between different devices, specifically a Samsung Galaxy and an Iphone 3gs.

My brother just had a kid and he is trying to send me videos of my nephew (thats right .. not his son .. my nephew :P), but they arent opening on my phone. If I send him a video, he can open it just fine. Im going to assume its a file format thing.

I went on some Iphone forums and didnt get much in the way of help regarding this (ie. an app that will allow me to view videos from a Galaxy). So I thought I would try from the other side.

Is there an app for the Galaxy that can record a video in a format that can be viewed on an Iphone?

Thanks a bunch guys and gals. Muchly appreciated.

I've looked through previous posts but could not find an answer. I'm looking to purchase a s2 and ship to the states. I'm worried about the warranty and would like to purchases from an authorized samsung reseller. Are expansys or handtec authorized samsung resellers?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stian230:
I would check EBay It's the best solution I think ..I dont think expansys ships over seas .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomisunrider:
LOL. Your answer for an authorized dealer is Ebay???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Is the warranty worldwide or not ??

I understood that buy a Samsung product in the UK its warranted only for the EU . Expansys as a very large company is likely to be authorised reseller .handtech probably the same .

Hi all, its not that I am a supporter of Apple, but just a thought that come across my mind, that has anyone tried the BT wireless keyboard from apple on A500?

was having the thought that if can be used (keyboard) it kinda gives us more variety in how we can use our A500.
[Acer Iconia A500] nuke3ae:
I have one at home, If I can remember I'll try when i get home. Should work no problem since it is bluetooth.
[Acer Iconia A500] n9mtb:
I have tried this and it did NOT work. Pairing was successful but no keystrokes were passed on to applications at all. I tried both the one I use on my Mac at home, as well as a new one from the store.

(I took that one back and got a Microsoft Arc instead, figuring I couldn't go wrong with USB, right? Sadly that doesn't work either, although other random USB keyboards I have around the house do.)

[Acer Iconia A500] gotsnow:
Apple bluetooth keyboard with a500

It pairs by entering keystrokes so the device (a500) is reading the keystrokes from the keyboard but you cannot select to use the apple BT keyboard as an input method...

Any ideas on how to tweak this?
[Acer Iconia A500] reyrey5:
no luck, Still trying to figure this out. You would figure that if xoom could do it then the a500 would.

Hi,i rooted my cell two months ago, nothing ever was wrong with my vibrant, yesterday my camera fails to activate and a window appears and says "warning, camera failed", is there anything I can do to get it working? I'm a tattoo artist and need my camera, does anyone know how to fix it?
[Vibrant General] mastewman:
Power off the phone and remove the battery for about 15 seconds and then give it a try...
[Vibrant General] TatuGrim:
Nah, its still not working, thanks though, does anyone else know what to do?
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
Flash a new rom and try again. If that doesn't work then it may be a hardware problem.
[Vibrant General] TatuGrim:
If its a hardware problem, how do I fix it
[Vibrant General] deadpass:
If your phone is under warranty then you'd do a warranty exchange. If it's not then you could buy a new camera assembly for it but that wouldn't guarantee to fix the problem as the hardware error could be on the main board somewhere. It's most likely a software problem. Since you're rooted you can just reflash the camera firmware.

Have you tried a 3rd party camera app?
[Vibrant General] TatuGrim:
Its been a few months since I rooted my cell, the camera was always working unroll the other day, and which apps are you talking about, and where would I get the drivers for my camera? And would a rom fix it?
[Vibrant General] deadpass:
Goto the market and download Retro Camera, it's free and while I don't personally care for it, if it can take pictures then you can prove that your camera hardware still works.

As for camera firmware you can try this, it's clockwork flashable and should work on 2.2 and 2.2.1 altho it is pulled from an older 2.2 build. Some people have had luck with it, other have not http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10952849/Camera-Stock-signed.zip Use at your own risk, I am not responsible if you phone slips into null space.

Assuming that your camera is not working because of a software glitch then yes, a new rom should fix the problem.
[Vibrant General] TatuGrim:
Thanks for the assistance, but retro camera won't work, said something about unable to set up and report my cell and model number to etc......ok, now that it has to be a hardware malfunction, how do I unroot and get the bloatware back on for the warranty?
[Vibrant General] ColorNapkin:
Just ODIN back to stock.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=848737
[Vibrant General] deadpass:
I would try flashing that camera firmware zip first to just be sure. If that doesn't work, then ODIN back to stock as mentioned above and do a full wipe.

Hello sir,

I rooted my phone with z4root, tried with adb made easy, but didnt work. even super 1-click root didnt seem as rooted.

I rooted my phone after downgrading to (android2.2) V10B_00.kdz, even installed super user. Then i copy the cyanogen_thunderg-ota-eng.mik.zip to SD root. then i copy recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img

Then i rebooted into recovery mode using adb made easy even with recovery key [home+power+vol down]. but it just reset to factory settings only.. i even tried with flash_image & recovery.img.. same response.. i even tried with Megatron-v1.

How can i flash my rom to a custom rom..

I use LG Optimus P500

Also, can i root my phone from android 2.2.2?

Please HELP! :-(

Thanks

1) Make sure that you have collected all needed information about recovery installation

2) Check if you really rooted your phone ("superuser" application should be installed and if you try write command "su" in adb shell or terminal emulator window with question about allowing sudo access should appear)

3) Than follow all steps in manual for your selected recovery.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Clark:
Shamelessly reposted from Modaco, as I haven't found a solution yet.

I've just noticed that quite a lot (but not all) of my music that I've copied to the Transformer is showing as zero length, and won't play.

The file size is correct, but browsing the Transformer's files in Windows reports the length of the track as 00:00 and on the tablet, I get an "Error while playing the track requested" message.

I've tried deleting the music and copying it back (I know the source works) and putting it in the Music folder and on the SD card. Neither make any difference.

Has anyone seen this before?

The tracks in question are MP3s that I ripped from a CD I own using Audacity. They play fine on the Nexus S.

Thanks!
[Defy General] mat7bit:
I've installed the cyanogenmod beta rom on my defy. It works great, very fast and customizable... but since first boot I have randomly some problem with default gallery. Somethimes when I open the app, I get an error (sd not mounted) and it doesn't start if I don't reboot... Also if I try to use camera (after I try to open gallery) I get the same error. Rarelly default music player give me similar error. But with third part app I can access to both gallery and camera... for example with QuickPick I can view all the images on my sd and with CameraFX I can use camera without any problem...

Anyone gets this error? How I can solve? Wipe can help me? I try to format SD and to pass other images and songs but nothing changes...

sorry for my bad English and thanks to all answers
[Defy General] Jaflo:
You could try to wipe the data of the gallery (not the actual pictures/videos). It's somewhere in Settings -> Apps -> Manage apps (something like this). There you can select gallery and then something like wipe data (I don't know the english translation that's used on CM7).
[Defy General] mat7bit:
I uninstall gallery with a root app manager, install a 3D gallery from market... for now seems that works...
[Defy General] mat7bit:
ok gallery and camera don't work, I try also to wipe only camera and gallery data, but I don't solve...

any other solution?
[Defy General] adyrafy:
try to backup your SD card on computer then format your SD card

It could be an error on the SD Card - format using FAT32 system if it`s the original 2GB

I've already tried this solution but doesn't work, I use an AData Class 6 8 gb...

moreover another defy of my friends gives to him similar problem with this rom (this defy crash randomly during video recording and in gallery)

also beta6 doesn't help me

The sd card error lies with the 3d gallery. Use titanium backup to remove it and use quickpic - a far better app anyway.

Hi,

I've been playing around a bit with TNT, and it turns out the USB mouse does not work (keyboard does).

When I plug in the mouse, the pointer appears in the middle of the screen (the cross), but no movement.

I've also checked in logcat that the device is recognised by the kernel, and a mouse1/event8 device is created under /dev/input/

Running "getevent" also returned some activity from the mouse when moved and /proc/bus/input/handlers have both mousedev and evdev..

Does anyone know who to debug from here? I'm guessing for some reason these events aren't captured by eventd? or the android UI?

Cheers! :)

I have a Verizon Galaxy Tab 7-inch with WiFi and 3G running Android 2.2 (Froyo). I mistaking tried to flash the new Android 2.3.3 before realizing it was only for GSM phones. I followed all the instructions using Odin3 (1.7) and everything looked like it worked except it never rebooted and I never got it into the Recovery Mode. I was still able to get in Download Mode so I tried to find a compatible 2.2 ROM to flash. I flashed the Roto JME rom, it didn't reboot. I flashed P1000NUBJM2_P1000NUBJM2_P1000NUUBJM2_HOME and it didn't work. Odin3 seemed to install these, I always got PASS. Now my Tab is totally unresponsive.

I can then flash it and it says PASS. I also just tried Heimdall and it also seemed to successfully flash the original Verizon SCH-I800_VZM firmware.
