[Acer Iconia A500] chlballi:
As the name suggests, I'm having some issues with audio playback on my new Iconia. I transferred all my music from my HTC Evo, to my PC, then to the Iconia using Acer's downloadable drivers. If I open the folder via a market downloaded file explorer...I have no issues. It is when I try to play the files in absolutely anything else that I get errors. Just FYI, the files are a mix of .mp3 and .wma files. Any thoughts?

Chlballi

Edit: I'm using File Explorer HD, and only the .mp3 files are playing within the explorer...the .wma files prompt for an app and fail
[Acer Iconia A500] snailium:
you can use windows media player to sync music
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
As far as I know, the WMA format isn't supported in Honeycomb natively.
[Acer Iconia A500] 84z28:
I had the same problem but its was with google music. I tried power amp from the market and all my music plays fine now. And all my files are wma.

[Acer Iconia A500] chlballi:
i ended up doing something similar with MortPlayer--still wish it would've worked with Google Music...I was realling digging the UI of that one. Oh well, at least my music plays now. :-) If anyone ends up with a thought or a workaround for the native Iconia app, keep us posted here. I'd love to see a device where all of the stock software worked as it was intended!

[Acer Iconia A500] chlballi:
Has anyone tried to sync music to our Acer's using Windows Media Player? If that can be used to send all the music to the device AND be able to use the default app...I'd be in good shape.

Chlballi
[Acer Iconia A500] snailium:
Yes. I did mention WMP above.

But I only did sync MP3 files, not WMA files. So I don't know about WMA part. MP3 is recognized and played flawlessly using stock music player.

Another note, if your music info (ID3 Tags) is not in English, make sure you have proper character encoding before syncing. Otherwise, they will be displayed as garbage. I think all ID3 Tags should be converted to UTF8, not sure, just used Foobar2000 to fix all my Japanese-title music.
[Acer Iconia A500] chlballi:
After exchanging my first Iconia to BB for some other issues, I did as you mentioned with using the tablet as an external mp3 player in WMP and everything worked flawlessly! Thanks :-) I also found a great .apk to be able to mount my NTFS HDDs to the tab without issue. So I'm in great shape now!

Chlballi
[Acer Iconia A500] chlballi:
I tried an experiment with the music -- after syncing the music to my tablet using WMP, I noticed that it placed all of the files into the music folder within the root sdcard (internal memory) and google music pp worked great. I moved all the files from that folder to a folder created on the external_SD, and the app fails like before. Apparently the Music app that comes with our Iconias cannot see anything outside of its native internal memory

Hi there. Why am i getting only about 1000 quadrant score, while everyone getting somewhat like 1500 on the same roms?

Do i have a different hardware or what?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopdogg:
Different roms will get you different results. Gingerbread roms appear to run around 1000+ while Froyo roms run closer to 1300+. Run it a few times and you should get a better score. Quadrant doesn't really matter too much though. What's important is how the phone feels for you not what a graphic tells you.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litaskull:
Thanks for reply, but the problem is that i'm having different results than people on the same rom.

And does the quadrant score affects on how smooth the games are running?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopdogg:
Do you have a lot of apps installed on your internal memory? The "cleaner" the phone is the more optimized. Junk apps will definitely decrease performance. As for running games, quadrant doesn't affect how smooth your game is running but does show performance measures that could be related to efficiencies of your phone. Theoretically, the higher the quadrant score the better your phone will be at running your games.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rudolf895:
What file system are you using...quadrant takes your free space for apps in score consideration..

If your using data2sd and have 2gb for internal(ext2,3,4) then quadrant is going to show a better score than those on rfs.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litaskull:
No, i have taken stats from fresh install, also tried different roms, but never got higher than 1000.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litaskull:
rudolf895

No, i am not using data2sd and i guess those people who get higher score than me not using it too.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prodigy:
Build.prop

Need to edit.

refer to reinderro's build thread, which I can't find now.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rudolf895:
Oh ok..

But my point was having lesser apps and having more. Internal space will increase the quadrant..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopdogg:
Which rom(s) are you using?

FYI - Fresh install of 2.1 will only get you around 500. JIT enabled gets you around 600+, removing additional junk apps will get you 700+. 2.2 Roms will get you over 1000+ easily. Z's Froyo beta 3 got me around 1500+. Others including Gingerbread hover around 900-1300.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litaskull:
I have tried CM7.0.3 J020c and trip's froyo.

In both roms my quadrant is about 1000, but for other people trip's rom giving them about 1400-1500.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
I am on wolfbreaks rom..(as per my signature)

The only other thing i do is move all aps to the sd card that can be moved and leave the ones with widgets on my internal memory.

I average about 1450 to 1550 with my best score of 1609.

Run it a few times as well..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopdogg:
On J's rom I run around 900-1200. Never tried running quadrant on Trip's froyo but on his Arc rom I get around 1000-1250. Again, quadrant isn't that big of a deal. Your games will run fine on your phone. Remember, try to have more free internal memory and get rid of junk apps you don't need.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psharifi.3746:
on wolfbreaks rom. i move all apps to the sd card (except widgets)

1300 - 1400
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litaskull:
Okay, thank you, guys, quadrant isn't important, but it's kinda wierd that i'm having lower stats than other people.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CMoney87:
Its not weird at all. Everyone has different apps and settings which affect benchmarks differently. Higher Quadrant scores don't neccessarily translate to better performance either so why does it matter. Also in order to get reliable scores in quadrant you need to run it twice in a row as the OS will kill apps and adjust as the test runs the first time and the second test is always higher and more consistent.

[Xperia Play General] liaoip:
Hello Everyone,

This post is, more than anything, just for peace of mind (and some of you will probably think it's not a big deal).

Anyways, I just got a Google I/O version of the Xperia Play and noticed that with the slider closed if I hold the phone with the micro-usb facing up, and tap on that edge of the screen, it will exhibit slight looseness. Also when the slider is open there is a very slight movement (but it probably wouldn't move unless you were testing it). I'm just wondering if all this is normal since all the reviews I've read call the slider one of the best ever made "solid as Stonehenge on a windy day" as one reviewer called it. Any thoughts?

zac
[Xperia Play General] ammarcool12:
Hmm mine doesnt shake
[Xperia Play General] metcard:
mine kind of wobbles, if I push either corner up it'll wobble maybe about 2mm.

Every slider phone I've had wobbles a bit even the aino which was possibly the most stable slider I've ever used.

I was hoping that the xplay was a little more stable.
[Xperia Play General] liaoip:
Yeah...maybe it's my inexperience with slider phones but I almost thought it would be completely stiff (like no wiggle). It's not like it's "shaking" persay, just that there enough movement when pressing it in certain areas, to make it noticeable. I finally found another thread on the sony forum which had a conversation about this...the crowd is divided on whether this is a manufacturing problem or just designed that way...
[Xperia Play General] metcard:
The problem seems to be that the hinges are at the very top (when the slider is open). So there is nothing holding it down towards the very bottom when the slider is closed.

I only see wobbling when the slider is closed btw, when it's open its very solid.

I think a long, thin rubbery strip underneath the analogue thingamajigs would stop a lot of the wobble. IMO
[Xperia Play General] FrAsErTaG:
+1 mine wiggles a little bit
[Xperia Play General] svenk919:
The side where the usb port is wiggles 1mm.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] se7en10:
I love music, so my TW Music player is constantly playing on my Vibrant. And Voodoo Sound just makes it fantastic.

Two questions:

1 - How do I

exclude

some MP3 files from the TW Music player?

I have some Podcast and Audio books that I do NOT want to play while listening to music. I have try placing them in the external SD as /books and /podcast but the TW player still adds them.

2 - Is there a way for Voodoo Sound to work through Bluetooth headset?

I like to be wireless, so the phone stays in the pocket or on the desk. And I'm still able to talk or listen to music while roaming in the office. My bluetooth is from Jabra, link below.

Vibrant on Bi-Winning V2 :cool:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ld006:
1. Put the mp3's that you want to play into a playlist, or move them to another folder and put a period in front on the folder name, for example ".other mp3 songs" or just create a blank file named ".nomedia"....that's right, no name, just the extention .nomedia

2. I don't think so, I think bluetooth uses a different sound aligorithm when broadcasting...I might be wrong though :/
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
You could put a .nomedua file in the directories you don't want the music player to access, but then other apps may not see the files.

As for Bluetooth, no it's not possible as that doesn't use anything voodoo sound related (i.e. voodoo sound uses the analog headphone sac, while the sac for Bluetooth is located on the headset and is different).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicknowsky:
YOu think its possible if we can split up the Nexus S DEV section, its really getting littered with ROMs (which is good) but its now a bit confusing to see all the different ROMs mixed up. Not that that its HARD to to really distinguish which ROM goes to which device, its more annoying than anything.

Anyone agree? maybe get a new sub forum for the NS4G, they are really 2 totally different devices if you think about it
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shabbypenguin:
i think its fine, i just think the titles need to be changed, have the phone tag all the way to the left to make it easier to scroll by
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stillblood:
I say no. I have had a lot of help from fellow NS owners some things are the same. Just read the OP before flashing. Or test on your own to see if new (2.3.4) roms work with your device. And as always have a good backup.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicknowsky:

[Galaxy 3 General] kRishtalysis:
I use a Galaxy 3 I5801, with DDJP2 stock and rooted.

I tried to apply kyrillos' new Honeycomb theme by flashing the zip file provided in the v5.0_Extra_package by renaming the file Honeycomb_theme-signed.zip to update.zip, and putting it in the sd card root folder.

But, in recovery mode, if i select SDCARD:update.zip option, it says :

E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0

E: Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip

Any solution to this?

Note: I was using kyrillos rom v4.1 oc before this, and I had used Madteam app2sd to partition my 16GB sd card, with 1GB app2sd space.

Would that be causing this problem?
[Galaxy 3 General] Rapier07:
You need CWM recovery to flash update.zip files .. DDJP2 has stock samsung recovery .. Flash any of the custom roms with cwm and you will be able to flash update.zip .. If you don't wasn't to flash a custom rim ask mumbozver for his cwm installer and run it for your phone...
[Galaxy 3 General] kRishtalysis:
thanks for the reply!

oh and one more thing, how do i get back the 1GB partition I made using Madteam app2sd while using kyrillos rom? or can it still be made usable in the stock rom?
[Galaxy 3 General] Dharam_Maniar:
It can be made usable...flash any fugumod 2.4 kernel...then use lestatious Data2Sd...that shuld do the trick...
[Galaxy 3 General] kRishtalysis:
i just flashed fugumod 2.4 beta3!

ran mount in terminal emulator (after su ofcourse), i see that all partitions (data,cache,system,efs...) are rfs file system..

what partitions do i need to convert to ext2 or ext4?

and how do i see and use my 1GB partition mentioned above?

thanks in advance!
[Galaxy 3 General] Dharam_Maniar:
Convert system and cache to ext2...and data to ext4...then use data2sd enabler of lestatious..and reenable data2sd
[Galaxy 3 General] kRishtalysis:
I converted the partitions data ext4 and system and cache to ext2!

But when i use EASS partition manager, i cannot see the swap and data2sd partitions at all.. It just shows a single FAT32 partition of 13.04 gigs!

And when i used data2sd enabler, and tried to reenable data2sd, it says path not found!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PrimeNemesis:
I was reflashing my Vibrant to stock using Odin3 v1.3. It seemed that everything went fine. When the reinstall completed, and went to boot up, my phone would not turn back on. No download mode, recovery mode, or regular boot mode screens at all. The battery is working and charged and still nothing.

I was given the really good suggestion of upgrading to Odin 1.7 or 1.8. And follow the plug in, hold, battery in instructions for several hours with no results so far.

Any other suggestions?? Any and all are appreciated.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xan_Kriegor:
Maybe one of the files you used was corrupted or was for another Galaxy S variant. I can't think of anything else that could've caused your phone to brick like that.

Have you tried getting into download mode using a different computer?

If it works I suggest re-downloading all the files including ODIN from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1047087
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PrimeNemesis:
Thanks for the response.

After rereading the other suggestion I got, I think I may not have added the PIT file when I reflashed to stock. That's the only thing I can think of. It won't power on or be recognized by any computer. There is no response from it at all.

I'll keep trying.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kacee Cooley:
I have bricked my vibrant many times playing with different roms. I almost had to build the cable jig. I have found without fail though if your phone will not do anything that there is one easy way to get it back into download mode for another attempt.

1)pull the battery from the phone and make sure the device is not connected to a USB.

2)hold both the volume up + volume down buttons in until the loading screen displays at the end of the steps listed.

3)slide the battery back into place in the phone

4)with the USB cable plugged into the computer, attach it to the vibrant.

5)press the power button

this method has worked 100% of the time for me. The only time i had an issue, i had loaded the wrong bootloader onto the phone from the i9000. In that case, search for the button press combo to get into download mode for the intended phone. (im still have a dsylexic phone - it displays i9000, then vibrant )

Hope this helps, i have found the vibrant to be unbrickable (thankfully, because im learning android with this phone)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
Do you get anything at all like the spindles when you plug it into a charger or PC? :confused:

Also what are the .pit and .tar files you are using in ODIN? link maybe?

- You need to be able to see either the spindles or the batt charge icon to do the button method if not then you will need to go the usb jig route to get into download mode. Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PrimeNemesis:
No, I get no response from my Vibrant. No spindles or battery charging status. A complete brick.

I'm using the proper PIT and TAR files. The problem (I think) was that I didn't load the PIT file when I ran ODIN. Now, I can't get anything. I have all the proper files to do the ODIN flash now. I just can't get a response from the brick.

I have seen the the usb jig method mentioned. It looks like it may be over my head. I have no idea how to use an iron to make those connections. FML>

My touchscreen on my TF has completely stopped responding to touch. I've tried resetting the device and wiping the data, but nothing will bring it back to life. I've been stuck at the Honeycomb Start screen for 2 days now, where you select your language when you first activate your device.

I called Asus support and they issued an RMA. When I got the email I realized it said that I had to pay to ship the device to Texas to get fixed. I refuse to pay to have this fixed after I just spend $400 on it last week. I called Asus support and was told only level 3 support would have the authority to override the policy and pay for the shipping both ways.

Now I can't decide what to do. Do I pay to ship it to Texas to get fixed, which I think is completely ridiculous? Or do I go to WalMart and return this thing? Does anyone know if I can go to WalMart and exchange it for another one when one comes in stock?
