Hi All,

Just wanted to let you know that since its quite dull and rainy here in the UK right now, I decided to make a video to show bluetooth mouse and keyboard connection, USB-OTG connection, and MHL connection to my TV. Hopefully it helps those that are still deciding or questioning features of the SGS2:

Hi,

Nice vid.

I am waiting for my Rii mini keyboard (24.44 Euro http://www.dealextreme.com/p/handhe...ss-keyboard-with-trackpad-and-red-laser-35354).

Already got myself an MHL adapter + HDMI cable (19,95 Euro incl. HDMI cable @ http://www.gsmpunt.nl/accessoires/s...to-hdmi-adapter--zwart-gratis-hdmi-kabel.html)

What I was looking for to do is watch HD video's from the phone. Unfortunately it doesn't like the WMV files I've got. Does anyone know what the file format/codec should be for HD videos on the SGSII?

I did search the forum but found nothing on this subject.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] vitalij92:
I use .mkv, it works great with stock video player.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] David Roosendaal:
Thanks!

And do you have or know of a good tool to convert to mkv's?

Cheers,

David
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mmarius:
Divx plus converter has mkv creation and it is free (mkv profile).
[Galaxy S II Accessories] plazzTT:
What are you converting from? The stock player seems to support lots of formats.

MKV is just a container, MKVToolnix can package your video into MKV, instead of re-encoding it with DivX or similar.

Is there any adapter which would allow MHL and USB OTG to work at the same time?
[HTC Sensation] Ozam:
Does anyone know whether any of the new ROMs have a stock dialer and/or contact manager. While I do not mind Sense 3.0 I just cannot stand the teenie font size of the contacts above the phone dialer and how awkward it is to use. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC Sensation] trovatrice:
Agree completely! Coming from an N1, these are what I HATE first and foremost about the Sensation. The Stock Dialer and Contact Manager are the two most basic functions that make a device a "phone"... On the Sensation they are glaringly ugly and counter-intuitive to use. [Why ruin something that is so perfect on stock??]

Every time I try to use it as a phone, I'm tempted to return it to T-Mo! Received the OTA update this morning... ready to move on now... will be interested to see replies to the OPs question... thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Ozam:
my thoughts exactly....the stock contact manager / dialer works perfectly......the little handle on Sense 3.0 used to move through the alphabet is ridiculously small and the button touched to gather more information about a contact is teenie as well. Given this is the most basic part of the phone, I am rooting the moment I find a ROM that solves this frustrating issue!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dieabolo:
We in the field in the army have no place to recharge the battery, so i have a second spare. After the first battery out, second battery i should calibrate or simply change it? Milestone generally maded to hot replace the battery? Second question: The battery is terribly wasted when data using. when browsing in the internet in dolphin 6.1. Even if 2g on and i in im+ messenger. A couple of sites get away even 1%-2%. An hour in nonstop browsing can drain 60%. YouTube has to look at all when the phone charging for viewing video over a length of 5 minutes, eats about 6% of charge. And i bought a new battery yesterday. And with the same old time of discharge. New battery calibrated. And tried to change the firmware on froyomod same. Right now sitting on the cyan 7 and the same flow rate. Last DSIfix 2..34.

PS. When data off - phone not using too much 2-3% when talking half hour. In the night can drain 3%.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Svid:
You better calibrate the new battery after the new one charged to 100%
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dieabolo:
It calibrated already. Same ****.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] quynhnt:
I got same problem with my MS. Maybe it's high time to change to a new phone
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] PsyCl0ne:
Dieabolo,

What settings do you use for your display, your current frequencies with vsel, are you using this phone in areas with great reception, do you have programs that ate always updating running (Facebook, twitter, weather apps, Widgets, news /sports apps) ?

Also I do like dolphin HD but try the opera mobile browser it'll help by compressing data so therefore less data transferred which ends up with less power being consumed.

~PsyCl0ne
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cammiso94:
i know for a fact, because ive tested it, that i can pull 11+ hours out of my droid. what you need to do is port MIUI to it, then get a lowvoltage overclocking kernal on it. i have a kernal that is 18 slot, and it can run stable at 220 mhz/1.26 ghz on userspace. run it at 220 mhz/900 mhz. if you clock it lower, then the battery life will decrease because it has to deal with a larger load, therefore, giving you battery heat damage, which means no more battery for you! i found that if i run the hight at 900 mhz, then it will have a chance to deal with all of the load. if you put it at 1.0 ghz, then it will ahve the same effect, but if your going to game with the droid, then i would put it at 1.06 ghz. my phone specs: OG droid, OC to 220 mhz/1.0 ghz, running MIUI 108050 on android 2.3.4. have fun!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] trestevenson:
Two things I would recommend would be to perhaps try a low voltage kernel, and to make sure you don't have any battery-intensive apps running in the background (Ebay, Lookout, etc.). You can check this by going to

Settings > Applications > Running Services

and seeing which programs are running.

Also if you set profiles withing SetCPU or another similar app, you can have the kernel drop to a lower speed when your screen is off or when the battery drops below a certain percentage. Doing these things should help you save some juice.

EDIT: I just read on another thread that the milestone has a locked bootloader, meaning you can't change the kernel. If this is indeed true, that sucks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] darkhole:
I calibrate my battery with this method:

1. Plug the charger in the phone, and charge at 100%

2. Delete /data/system/batterystats.bin using Terminal emulator or whatever tool

3. Restart the phone, and when it start to boot, and before the soft keys shine take off the battery.

4. The phone will run without battery, after a few minutes (2-5) put the battery in.

5. Left the phone charge for another 30 minutes...

But with CM7 for Mileston RC13 my radio don't work, and I have to restart it again to have phonee signal.

Hey,

Has anyone had any experience with Gearzap? They look like a pretty good vender, and have a lot of Transformer accessories.

http://www.gearzap.com/tablet-accessories/asus/asus-eee-pad-transformer-accessories.html

I was wondering what people thought about the Car Charger and Travel Adapter, and if you think they will provide enough power to charge the tablet?

Thanks

Adam
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GeminiRx:
I don't think the car chargers will work because they all seem to work on 5V..
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] LR_Jordan:
As the output is only 5V you will have to have the tablet turned off whilst charging - and even then it won't charge too quickly. However, it will still give your Eee Pad some juice when needed!

As for GearZap, I've used them a few times - really great service, never had any problems and would recommend them to all.

[Trophy General] tigran80:
I have HTC Trophy with sim lock.

How to insert unlock code? Phone does not ask for code with non accepted sim card. Only message on screen "Invalid SIM".
[Trophy General] unknown797:
Hi Tigran80,

I can only think of 2 ways that you might be able to do this:

- Try removing the sim card and turning on the phone then select emergency calls only and enter the unlock codes (by dialiing the number?)

- Otherwise you may need to flash your phone with an original firmware etc... This means you will lose all your saved phones etc unless you backed up your stuff (synced with zune). Yyou will need to look up what type of carrier your phone has and then using Ansars roms (some of them have issues updating to the lastest phone update so you can also try looking up wickedpengiuns guide to HSPL and RSPL (I've given him a quick guide on to use this tool which should help you).

P.S. Some phones can be traced using windows phone live so I hope this phone is yours (not that I'm accussing you)

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C0dy:
Hey all, I wanted to buy a cheap (good) Android tablet, and the Galaxy Tab 7 seems to fit my priorities. But I have two questions.

Can you CM7 on the Galaxy tab? I looked in the development section and I only see GSM and CDMA ROMs.

Does it play .mkv out of the box like the Galaxy S phones?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seamus1:
The various models of the 7 inch Galaxy Tab have various levels of development.

The GSM tabs have a lot of development, and some real options for custom roms, etc.

The CDMA tabs have significantly less development, but they are starting to see some more action. There is a CM7 project for the CDMA tabs right now that Spacemoose and Oldmacnut are collaborating on.

The WIFI tabs don't seem to get much development. I can't recall having ever seen a rom for them. From the hardware perspective, as I understand it, the WIFI tab has some pretty notable differences. If you are interested in using custom roms, your best option is to go with one of the other tabs.

As for MKV, my tablet plays them now, but I can't say for 100% sure that it did straight out of the box. The only thing I have added in that regard is Mplayer, so I think it is pretty likely that they would.

Hi,

I would like to use a certain 2.3 rom, but it does not have init.d support built in. The only tut I can find for enabling it is the link above, but thats for froyo roms. Can anyone help me enable it on a GB rom, or would the froyo method work? Someone has posted a flashable zip on that thread but like i said its for froyo.

Any help or direction would be gratefully received! I can use basic ADB/Fastboot and have a little experience of modding.

Dear All,

This is a development forum so lets be clear about one thing right away,

any posts

will be deleted

to prevent clutter:

"Waiting for new rom...."

or

"Will we have a custom rom for 7720 soon?"

or

"please when should we expect it"

If you have nothing to contribute to this thread or you are not developing then please do not post here.

Sounds harsh?

Well, its not. Development forums are for developers and not a place for posting "useful" comments like the ones above. If you know what you are doing or wanting to learn then do lots of reading and have a go yourself ;)

If you already have 2.3 loaded on the phone, there's no way to root it right now. You have to flash the 2.2 SBF, root that, buy and install the Droid 2 Bootstrap from the market (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.koushikdutta.droid2.bootstrap&hl=en), and then buy the Team Black Hat app here - http://shop.teamblackhat.info/Software_c3.htm. After you install the Team Black Hat app, you can install a version of 2.3 that's pre-rooted.

Also, all of this information is in the forums here, spread out in different threads. Since the Droid Pro forums aren't the most active around these parts, it wouldn't take long to flip through a few pages and find all of this out in much more detail.

[Huawei Ideos X6] nX3NTY:
Just installed and tested a couple of games, Dungeon Defenders and H.A.W.X. Both game rock stable at 1.6GHz and game runs with smooth framerate, front and back of the phone exhibit unusual warmth though but it suffers no problems at all.

I just use for testing though, the vast frequency selection is just what I needed, now I set at 460MHz max for day-to-day usage like watching video and playing light games such as Angry Bird, not too slow that the GUI suffers and save battery at the same time.

EDIT: 1.9GHz stable in Dungeon Defender, but the touchscreen started to go haywire after prolong use because of the heat I suppose. Phone gets really REALLY warm now. So it is VERY dangerous to use it. Quadrant gives a score of 2602, not too shabby. Like DooMLorD said this high frequency is only usable for short benchmarking and not for long run, its pretty much the same story for overclocking in PC
