MediaMonkey

Hi!

First of all thank you for the post :)

I just wanted to say that mediamonkey (at least the 4.0.0.1393 build that I'm using on a x64 windows 7 vaio) synchronises your music and playlists to the phone or to the SD card with almost no setup required and I had no problems with the id3 tags or album art until know. I use the stock music player and tunewiki on the phone. I have never tried but it also has options to automatically convert incompatible files, including video...

The only hassle I had was with the genius mixes and I solved it by creating proper playlists using itunes DJ by choosing the genius mixes as sources and importing them to mediamonkey.

By the way I have an unbranded SGS2 with the KE2 stock rom :)
[Galaxy S II General] Sean1218:
This seems like a lot of trouble. Do you find it annoying and tedious? I use a MacBook Pro, and am trying to decide between getting the Galaxy S2 this summer and waiting for an iPhone 5. I'm just concerned with how much trouble it will cause me to do simple things (lack of compatibility?) using an android phone with a mac.

Maybe it would be easier if I just ran Windows 7 (already have a license) on bootcamp or say, parallels, when I want to deal with Galaxy S2 things?
[Galaxy S II General] bothfly:
All that stuff works fine, but I am all apple and I found two Mac programs to take care of everything I needed.

I used BusyCal for iCal syncing, it works with the new Mobile Me Cloud, so no problem there.

Second I'm using The Missing Sync, this program sync's iTunes music and movies, as well as iPhoto to and from the GS2.

Both these programs cost money but a small price to pay to have them work as well as they do.
[Galaxy S II General] viva.fidel:
Why not use Kies for Mac?
[Galaxy S II General] clonednull:
nice posting thompps!

it will for sure help ppl when switching from ios to android.

but is'nt it obvious that syncing between devices of the same manufacturer is more simple then between varous systems?

apple will allways put hurdles in the way when it comes to syncing with other devices, thats the way they keep their customers dependent... (i must confess its not only apples procedure, but they are master in this discipline)

anyway thumbs up for your effort and wish ya fun with your phone!
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Yes thanks good post even though Apple is not a product i have ever used .

Should be a sticky for ex IPhone users .

sadly DT on my mac doesn't read my iPhoto library. :( Missing Sync and FoneSync doesn't see external SD... how can I fix this?
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
i must say, although i don't have a mac or an iphone, i thank you for your post, i really appreciate when junior members decide to give something back to the community and your guide is well thought out and structured. good work.
[Galaxy S II General] rava15:
hi, thanks for the post peter. i have registered on xda today, just so that i could reply to the post. so your saturday night 2.5hrs sacrifice is appreciated!

in south africa contract upgrades are only 24 monthly. i was actually the biggest symbian fan and was very reluctant to move to the iphone 3GS. i was sold. but then i found all the nice apps were paid (something which i am against) and it was either jailbreak the iphone 4 or sg2. obviously if i am posting here, i have gone for the sg2.

i have not fully used the syncing properties on the iphone...and was mislead when the usual "connecting to itunes" states "step 2 of 3 backing up" - i upgraded my software after the pdf loophole was discovered - started with blank apps, lost all my photos etc. the contacts somehow remained.

so here is my question. i dont have an imac, i ahve an ordinary dell laptop. i also use my mobile device (either with cable or bluetooth) as a modem to connect to the internet. (this was one of the features that sold me on iphone - swith internet tethering "on" and you surfing in seconds).

having said that: i mainly need all my contacts to be synced.

the rest i can sacrifice, but pics, texts etc will be nice.

so now that you using the sg2, how is the touch screen sensitivity? messages also in chat form? i didnt understand the part of the blog if it allows for push email notifications? i use gmail.

thanks for post once again and thanks for helping me out on my journey to android...

regards

[XPERIA X8 General] kostass123:
Is there any way to enable muting the microphone while on a call?

It's a quite common bug in many roms. Racht's floyo 0.20 had it and the rom I'm currently using (gingerbread cm7-108 by racht) has the same bug as well!

Is there any way to fix it? With an update.zip or something like that?
[XPERIA X8 General] deedii:
I dont get it, why do you want to mute your mic? Don't you want to hold the call instead if you want to pause the conversation.? :)
[XPERIA X8 General] chewdaniel:
use the search... mute button bug has been fixed a LOOOOOOONG time ago... =.= for ANY rom...
[XPERIA X8 General] kostass123:
Sorry but there's no such thing in the forum! I searched the word "mute" at the xperia x8 forums and the only thread I found was this one :S

@deedi I need to mute the call when I talk to my girlfriend! hahaha
[XPERIA X8 General] chewdaniel:
fine then... =/ here ya go.

as for putting it into your phone, find out yourself if u don't know how already :)
[XPERIA X8 General] kostass123:
Thank you!! Now tell me how to put it in my phone!!!!

Just kidding... I think I can do that by myself:p Thanks again :D
[XPERIA X8 General] chewdaniel:
haha u're welcome. not sure if it works with floyo tho esp 0.20 since i'm using FB... if u get FCs in the phone app it might not be compatible with floyo 0.20 in which case u need to get the fix from elsewhere (like in minicm), altho i can't see any reason why it shouldn't be perfectly working. cheers :p
[Acer Iconia A500] xendrome:
Hey Guys,

Quick question, when the updater checks for an update, has anyone checked that app to see where it goes out and checks, and what data it sends out.. I am guessing to an Acer distro site and it checks something in build.prop. But does anyone have any full details?
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
I will be a tester for any ROMs built for this. Developers, let me know if I can assist you in any way.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid X2] Saint Isaiah:
Ditto for me!
[Motorola Droid X2] wdenker:
Same here
[Motorola Droid X2] Zaf9670:
Somehow I don't think this is how you become a beta tester... Pretty sure they want people who know to look for certain files and monitoring stuff. Not just running their build in your day to day...

Not trying to burst any bubbles or be mean. Just the honest truth. And I also don't think this belongs here but again I have no idea.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
I see developers asking for testers all the time on Twitter. It's worth a shot.
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
I would love to be able to assist by beta testing also. Please contact me via PM for direct contact info when and if any developer is looking for beta testers!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr. Clown:
Thanks for your offers, but this is not a place to post these kind of posts.

hi how everyone im new here and had no clue what i was doing at first but by reading all on this forum i was able to flash my phone with no problem so thanks to everyone for there hard work here at xda.forum!

but i have one question is there a way to update a nand stock rom from android 2.2.1 like 2.3.1? i hope im not of base here..thanks in advance
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] YZ:
You need to flash a rom that has that version. Check my thread, I have links to gingerbread roms there :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kds4aday:
thank you for your quick reply i will check it out thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Just flash/install the rom you want, sorry but I dont understand the reasoning behind this question.

Also, "noob question" inst really a descriptive topic title.

Yep Swedish and Finnish use these symbols, so they would be on the physical keyboard of phones from those countries (Probably on all Scandinavian Mini's).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JediWing:
All I want to do is odin my phone to EC05. It's currently on DK28.

I've tried and tried and browsed and browsed. I am at my wits' end. The Samsung drivers don't work on either of my 2 Vista laptops. Tried all 3 ports on them with 2 different stock cables.

I've uninstalled and re-installed the ones listed on the Samsung site. I've tried the ones from multiupload on the Youtube video that's in the sticky thread of the main forum.

Neither work and actually my progress has gone BACKWARDS. At the beginning of the day it would pretty consistently recognize the phone when it was on normally. Now it only ever recognizes it as USB mass storage.

Has there been any definitive answer on how to get these #$@@#$@#%#@$$$@#% awfully written drivers to WORK CONSISTENTLY INSTEAD OF SPENDING ALL DAY PLUGGING AND UNPLUGGING USB CABLES????????????
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidApprentice:
Although I'm an XP guy, one thing that helped me was while installing, having the phone plugged in. Also, you may need to disconnect and reconnect it several times for the driver package to completely recognize all the phone devices. HTH.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
Also, make sure you have usb debugging on. And use a non samsung cable.

[HTC EVO 3D] DiGiTY:
Just picked up a EVO 3D (upgraded from EVO 4G). I had my EVO 4G rooted so I did a nandroid backup and a full Titanium backup (all apps + data) for safe measure. I know the EVO 3D isn't rooted yet, but is there a way to get my stuff migrated over to the EVO 3D? My main concern is the app data.

Thanks in advance
[HTC EVO 3D] MrTrackZed:
Hello fellow XDA users...I just wanted to spark up a good debate about screen colors between the two...I love the 3D, but on a full brightness side by side comparison, the 4G seems to have richer colors, especially reds and yellows. The 3D seems to wash and dull colors out. Either way, the phone is probably my favorite Android to date, just wanted to get some other opinions?

Sent.
[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
When I compare side to side the 3D has the rich colors. My EVO 4G has vibrant colors, but they just don't match. I have the novatec screen on my EVO 4G also.

I notice my EVO 4G has a cool feeling to it whereas my 3D has a warmer tone.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmalu:
I saw the same thing when I compared my eve 4g and 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
When I compared my 4g to my 3D it seems to me that the 4g screen is wider. I know it stats that they both have the 4.3" screens but the 4g font and screen looks brighter, crisper and wider than my 3D. Swypes even bigger on 4g. O Well!! I love my new 3D anyways.
[HTC EVO 3D] bgchz:
the 3d actually has a taller screen. it's still 4.3 inches diagonally. its just taller, also meaning it's more narrow than og evo..

Anyone able to load cifs module on 10.1?

I had no luck with the following log from mount manager app, i got the cifs.ko from lib-2636.4.tar.gz

su: insmod (......dir.....)/cifs.ko

execute-result: exitcode:255 stdout: stderr:insmod: init_module '(......dir.....)/cifs.ko' failed (exec format error)

wondering whether the issue here is from mount manager or from cifs.ko?

BTW: tried cifs manager also, not working too.:(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] danielsjam:
There is no cifs modules for the stock kernel.

You will need one of the custom kernel done by pershoot or supercurio.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] rainby:
just updated my original post .... see if that helps describing issues more clear
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] danielsjam:
I have uses cifs with both of the custom kernels and it loads without problems for me.

I also used lib-2636.4.tar.gz - created /system/lib/modules and placed the module there, but should be able to install it anywhere. I am using cifs manager.

UPDATE: I am using the supercurio kernel and just tried

su

insmod /lib/modules/cifs.ko

the module is loaded - checked with lsmod

[Motorola Droid X2] AvatarOfFrost:
I just got this phone. I love it except for the fact that is not very smooth when scrolling through list, home screens etc.

I just figured with dual core CPU and all, that it should handle that like nothing.

Anyone else experience this and any ideas on a "fix"?
[Motorola Droid X2] slagar:
Once gingerbread is released I am sure that these issues will be solved considering froyo isn't multithreaded
[Motorola Droid X2] spr0k3t:
My X2 is really smooth, no jerky transitions or anything. Of course I ditched MotoBlur and went with ADW Ex for my launcher. I also rooted and removed quite a few of the bloat apps... still no problems. The MotoBlur software is horrid. Change to something MIUI, ADW, Go Launcher or anything different from the stock/default. The different launchers are all available in the market.
[Motorola Droid X2] justpastfinish:
Agreed. Go launcher and smooth as butter
[Motorola Droid X2] ihavenolife008:
yeah, sadly a software issue. One thing is Tegra needs its own optimizations. Gingerbread should help, while custom ROMS if/when they arrive should do wonders also. Mines mostly smooth (with BLUR) but does have its moments.
[Motorola Droid X2] hax0red:
Agreed, it's very jerky. With any luck motorola will unlock these phones and the devs will have the roms out in weeks vs the months we face waiting if it's not unlocked :(
[Motorola Droid X2] slowz3r:
I wouldnt say its "jerky" but its just not so responsive
[Motorola Droid X2] rushless:
Though I think the Blur UI provides handy features that Gingerbread has (ability to uninstall apps directly is an example), I agree that Blur may be a part of the issue with performance.

I returned the DX2, but miss the things it did great (IMO) like nice display, build, call quality, N64 and PSX butter smooth, hardware buttons are MUCH better for avoiding gaming accidents, etc.

Though the V6 script rocks for rooters, it would be nice to have no low ram issues, audio pops or random reboots- out of box. That said, the script does not appear to fix the audio pops or reboots, but does help in reducing accumulated performance lag.
[Motorola Droid X2] digital0verdose:
I noticed the same thing. Particularly after loading the phone up with apps.

Using this (SuperCharger Script) and selecting option 9, the phone is smooth as butter now and no more redraws of the home screen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] redrecordplayer:
Is this supported on Honeycomb? If it is not, is it going to be in the future? It doesn't make sense that Flash is supported on Android but not Java.
[Dell Streak 7] bluesy_92:
StreakDroid7 and HoneyStreak are both great roms, but not perfect.

StreakDroid is a 2.2.2 ROM, and in my opinion, just an improvement on the stock ROM. HoneyStreak is based on 3.1, which was designed for 10 inch tablets, not 7.

I was wondering if any of the developers here have plans to relase a 2.3, 2.4, or 3.2 ROM, and I would rather run something like that rather than another 2.2 or a 3.1 that was never intended for a 7 inch device.

With the first 3.2 tablet coming soon, I expect a 3.2 ROM to be made by Dell or some XDA members to be coming within the next few months, but it would be nice to know if there are already plans for it.
[Dell Streak 7] DJ_Steve:
3.2 is planned once i have a syatem dump of a 3.2 device
[Dell Streak 7] AWD FTW:
Hopefully you can get that soon. Loving the latest version of Streakdroid HD7 tho. 3.2 should be even better!
[Dell Streak 7] bluesy_92:
DJ_Steve, if you can get 3.2 working, I would worship you. HoneyStreak is great, but the display errors are annoying. Getting a 7 inch version of honeycomb would be incredible.

EDIT: I shouldn't really say errors, as the rom runs fine, more like display "issues."
[Dell Streak 7] DJ_Steve:
Yea i agree. So if anyone can get a dump off the new huawei tab or has contacts possibly able to do so get on to them
[Dell Streak 7] arleybarros:
streak 5

Since streak 7 heave the same screen resolution as streak 5, is possible to port 3.2 to streak 5?

Please, correct me if im wrong.
[Dell Streak 7] bluesy_92:
Since the Streak 5 has the same resolution, and the same LCD density (160) if there is a port, I doubt the screen would cause any problems.
[Dell Streak 7] metal1f3:
I doubt it. Dell still hasn't released the necessary drivers for the streak 5.
[Dell Streak 7] DJ_Steve:
Not to mention 3.2 is first hc to support qualcomm cpus apprently
[Dell Streak 7] arleybarros:
not that it is absolutely necessary, is just curiosity, I never even saw any device with HC.

1.90 is a great build, for the record.

Thank you!

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Lennyuk:
I am working with Zepto Labs on a fix for the gift box bug and we are making good progress.

Basically it seems the the sound effect for turning the wheel causes the crash (whether or not you have volume on). I have been given a test apk that I am not allowed to share that has sound removed and it solved the bug.

I have given my feedback to them now and am awaiting on their next move.

My guess is they will not try to identify why this is happening and attempt a real fix with sound before releasing an app update.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] bocosrs:
Me too. Have sent a message and info to the devs last week. Maybe if they hear from a few more people they'll bump up the priority. They did say an update was coming, but if you got this from getjar instead of the market how will this work?

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waqypaqy:
Hey guys

Got a problem here regarding my GT-P1010

Basicaully I've followed a guide to install Froyo using Odin onto my Tab. The problem is the Tab now starts, goes to the home screen and after a few seconds automatically restarts. This cycle will keep on going unless I hold the power button and turn off the device.

I used a p1010 firmware from samfirmwares which I thought would be compatible.

Anyone else had a problem similar to mine and found a solution?

I've got access to recovery so I can wipe and install a zip, however I can't find a ROM in .zip format anywhere. Development seems to be concentrated alot towards the GSM or CDMA versions :o
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexgogan:
ok you have gone into bootloop there cause it was the wrong version, (don't think there is any others that can bar stock. You need to get stock back onto your device.

Did you take a copy of it before you flashed?
