@keen77

I used this guide to get 3D movies transcoded to my EVO 3D:

www [dot] goodandevo [dot] net/2011/06/how-to-make-your-existing-3d-videos-play-nice-with-the-htc-evo-3d.html (sorry as a XDA newb I’m not allowed to post links).

[By the way, this is a great website to stay informed on developments concerning your EVO 3D!]

I only don't recommend using Handbrake (on which the article is based) but rather Freemake Video Converter (see way down the same article). Freemake is WAY superior, both in transcoding performance (quality & speed), ease of use and user interface (which could arguably be called "beautiful"). Use the same settings as the article suggests for Handbrake (including changing the resolution to 960x540) and you should be good to go! I only used this on HD videos 1920x1080 with half side-by-side, but it works perfectly on them.

I only have a problem with the fact that some videos at my disposal have the left and right images swapped the wrong way (which off course has nothing to do with the to mentioned video convertors). Watching this is a very confusing experience!

Does someone know how you can easily swap the left and right images in (half) SBS video's? I tried StereoMovie Maker (stereo [dot] jpn [dot] org/eng/stvmkr/index.html), but it stops saving the "swapped file" halfway through the saving process... and besides that the proces involves 3 transcodings (original->avi [Freemake], avi->swapped-avi [StereoMovie Maker], avi->mp4 [Freemake]) which doesn't do the quality any good and is lengthy.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Flipping the phone over corrects the 3D in those cases.
[HTC EVO 3D] keen77:
What do you mean "corrects the 3D," and in what cases? Sorry don't follow

Go into the Themes & Apps section for the Evo 3D and loom at the posts stickied. One talks about 3D movies.

I did one up in handbrake today. It was a 1080p side by side. I just dropped the frame down to qhd and then ran it with my normal 3vo settings. It dropped the file size down from 4.7 giggers to just over half a gig.

I have a video folder on my root that I move them info that shows up in the stock gallery app. When playing you need to hit menu and choose view in 3d.

It's a crap movie, but it was the only of the type I could find lol
[HTC EVO 3D] migpol08:
Sorry if I posted on the wrong thread.

I upgraded to the 3d first and decided to give the photon a try but somehow I am missing the 3vo. The sales rep told me that if I wanted to go back to the 3d she was going to charge me $35, is there a way to waive this fee?
[HTC EVO 3D] nunyabiziz:
If there are defectives with the photon then restocking fee should be waived.
[HTC EVO 3D] migpol08:
Well I think that the call quallity is lower than on the 3vo, idk if that counts?
[HTC EVO 3D] nunyabiziz:
Do some research about known issues with the Photon and see if you are affected.
[HTC EVO 3D] jstn76rs:
You could try calling retentions and see what they can do for you.

Today, as i was talking with a colleague ,a apple fan boy, he told me that they can unlock very easy they'r iphones by changeing they'r baseband to a 6.bla.bla ...

Now i know that we dont have many basebands in fact we have only 2 ...but cant we do something about this and crack it open to unlock our phones for free?

p.s: just came up with an idea dont crack my skull open for this... so this is a question to the developers and interested people
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Shofire91:
I just cracked open my V10V baseband, you can do it with others too.

Check out:

Run only steps 1-2 to get the files you need from the Kdz file

And check out:

Once you have your files, replace them with the ones that are given with the 7z packages, flash your baseband, and voila!

Anyone feel free to add on to this. I'm still a bit of a newb, but this method worked for me before.

What "unlock" you mean? SIM lock? Noone sells SIM-locked phones here, NFC.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poppa_john:
Hey Guys,

First off, I love XDA and everything you all have done to improve my phones! Long time reader (from the WinMo 5 days!), but unfortunately I never have much to contribute. Hopefully this post will change things.

I have a Captivate which was running great... until I decided to EXT4 the whole thing. Then in the past 18 hours I had a bootloop (installed Voodoo then Glitch Kernel on Stock Eclair, bad move) and built a jig as the 3- or 2- button combo's were not working . My phone is fine now, I have Stock Sammy TW 2.3.3 from AT&T running (even though this is a Rogers phone.)

What I Want From My Captivate:

- Root

- CWM 4x

- exfat4 on EVERYTHING (Voodoo/Supercurio's fix only fixed either /data or /system. I can't remember which, though the Quadrant score was 1770 on Stock Sammy Froyo)

- Running Glitch Kernel v11 Low Leakage (I found my phone to be the fastest and most stable on Glitch. Bali switched my volume buttons and SpeedMod was ok...)

- MIUI 1.8.19 or CM7. I'd prefer MIUI, the messaging popup is awesome, though I prefer the settings menu in CM7.

- Voodoo Sound/Color

- Launcher Pro (sidenote: too bad I can't create folders in the App Drawer :( )

- Battery life of more than 5-6 hours!!

Questions / How To:

1) I cannot root my GB with Super One Click. I'm thinking of Odin'ing to Froyo, Rooting.

2) How do I install CWM 3 or 4x on stock and just root? Odin? I found this but in which place do I put the package (PDA, Boot, etc.)

3) Do I install Voodoo, convert to exfat4, then Glitch? Or should I update Voodoo, install MIUI, then Glitch Kernel??

4) After installing exfat4, Can I just do Nandroid backup of my data, which will be installed as exfat?

5) Is Voodoo Sound installable is a kernel even when I have Glitch installed?

6) My battery life does not last past 5-6 hours!!! Terrible! I got this phone instead of my BB9700 as a straight-up trade and the Cappy has 10 months warranty left. Should I send it to Sammy?

Thanks in advance!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
First off you can find ALL of this information on xda. Search and read. Ginger bread does not have a 1 click root, you can how ever use this thread for the rooting method on KF1, just for rooting. As for CWM its a kernel usually just stick it in pda. On the Voodoo your out of luck on native gingerbread roms since KF1 kernel has not drooped, however, you can have ext4 format with Cognition 5 and Atomic fusion if you know what you are doing. MIUI and Cyanogen have their own instructions on wich kernel and what not, BUT if your poor battery life is on these roms then they are the culprit since its a bug they have. I average anywhere from 12-30 hours of battery life dependent on usage on KF1 gingerbread roms, Ive been averaging about 16-45 hours with my current clock/voltage settings.

I would recommend you do research on KF1 Gb roms or I9000's ported ones and stay away of Miui or Cyanogen till they fix their battery, if having a long day without a charge is part of your life. Again search and read my friend =)

Another bug to report with the new OTA. If you missed the first one, here it is:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1226052

Multiple users have told me that they have this problem also. I thought it was just me at first, but since this seems to be an issue for others, attention should be drawn to it.

I have a phone-lock issue with the phone now after the update.

Basically, the phone doesn't register my first power button click to put the phone on standby.

I have to hit it twice for the phone to drop to standby.

At first, I thought it was a hardware issue, but I never have a problem waking the phone from standby. Therefore, it's not the power button. It's a problem with the update.

Anybody else have this? Any workarounds? Solutions?
[HTC Sensation] FuzeItUp:
I'm actually having the opposite problem. I sometimes have to press the power button twice to wake it up. And my battery life is so much worse now, other than that, I haven't noticed anything else for now.
[HTC Sensation] DrTanny:
Can't confirm haven't received my ota in Asian region yet.
[HTC Sensation] ohen:
I do not have any such problem on mine. It's the European/International version, though.
[HTC Sensation] DrBrick:
I seem to be having this issue now. Never noticed it prior to the update. First few times I thought I missed the button or something.
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
I have the same as problem as well which sucks as I also have the phone bug. Does flashing a new rom fix this?
[HTC Sensation] zylith:
Have you tried doing a master reset- with the new update? It might clear out some of the bugs? I did the update today and I don't have those problems.
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
I have not tried that yet. I'll probably give it a try. Thanks for the advice!
[HTC Sensation] SensationalAdrian:
I'm having the same exact problem. I sometimes have to hit the button twice to unlock and my battery life is getting worse than what it was..
[HTC Sensation] tbgreen89:
I'm having the same problem with lock and unlock.. takes sometimes 2-3 clicks for it to process.
[HTC Sensation] Over Achiever:
I am definitely having that problem as well, looking for a way to just turn off screenshots until needed.
[HTC Sensation] leffep:
I´ve no problem at all after upgrade. My sensation was untouched before OTA message came and it was installed smooth and fast.

Battery usage are not known yet but after 6 hours it´s act like normal !!

:):)
[HTC Sensation] shammanCZ:
None of mentioned issues on my Sensation after OTA (Central Europe - stock ROM, never rooted/S-OFFed/whatever).

To be perfectly honest, my Sensation went only better in all ways
[HTC Sensation] dominante58:
I am having this same issue- but after the second time i hit the power button to wake up, the phone reboots. Is anyone else experiencing this??

Its dont it like 2-3 times today....happened a couple of other times since i updated a week ago.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Not had these issues at all. Did with my old Desire funnily enough, though
[HTC Sensation] robotnoize:
It has something to do with the home screen capture feature I'm pretty sure. If you press home in between the lock button taps it'll keep on takin shots. Random
[HTC Sensation] m1r4j91:
I have got the same problem, i have to press the power button twice to put it into standby and also sometimes i have to press it twice to turn the screen on, it's wierd, i thought it may have been a hardware problem, but it clearly isn't if quite a few of us have it? Also I am running a custom ROM, Android Revolution HD 3.0.0, which is based on the WWE 2.3.4 rom.
[HTC Sensation] m1r4j91:
Yup, if you try taking a screen shot with home and power button, then try to put it into standby, the phone definitely does show this problem.
[HTC Sensation] Kevinr144:
I have the same problem. Power button is very buggy and doesn't turn the screen on every time and likewise, doesn't turn it off everytime. Screen comes on by itself at random times and sometimes when you press the power button, screen goes off but comes back on immediately.
[HTC Sensation] mexhex:
just a question, is this a problem with sensation owners who went for the OTA from stock or those from S-OFF then installed the OTA, etc.?

no asian OTA as of the moment, i hope HTC pulls out a fix right away
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
So it's definitely not a hardware problem.

It annoys the crap out of me because I have to press my power button 2-3 times just to get it into standby!

I've also noticed that it happens every once in a while when I'm trying wake up my phone from standby, but not nearly as often.
[HTC Sensation] FuzeItUp:
Would this have anything to do with maybe the amount of time that's required to hold the power button for the screen shot feature? Maybe they need to up the milliseconds.... I don't know, just a thought.

Sent from my HTC Pyramid!
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Mine does this occasionally as well, but works most the time. This leads me to believe that the screen shot function is the culprit.

[HTC Sensation] derkie:
re: Bugs 1.45

So far no problems of all the mentioned above in this thread. Europe version rom seems to more stable. I also have no problems on screen/lock issues. Use the phone as normal, charge it to AC or any USB.
[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
Yes! Finally it looks like it's not just me and a few others with this issue but quite a lot of people are showing signs of experiencing it too. It is extremely annoying!!
[HTC Sensation] longside1:
Hi guys,

Is it possible to have scrollable wallpaper, if so how?

Thanks,
[HTC Sensation] stevekixs:
I don't think so. Only if you use another launcher. The 3d home screen would be weird with a scrolling wallpaper.

However maybe if someone uses an old sense launcher or if someone were to modify the apk. Other than that I don't think so. Lol.
[HTC Sensation] Tomekks:
Hello! I know that Google Navigation paired with the GPS is kind of awesome. But, it uses my data plan, in which I have limited bandwidth. I live in Europe - Latvia so many GPS navigation systems don't work for me. But I found this one cool navigation, which I kind of liked. It's called "iGo My Way". But the only problem is that it is not made for the Sensation because all the resolutions available are for smaller screens.

So I'm asking: Could you suggest a descent navigational software that I could use in offline mode with only the enabled GPS? Because I need routes, maps and finding new locations every day and bandwith in my country is weirdly expensive, compared to calls.

Oh, and: Which one of these uses most battery: GPS/3G?

Thanks a bunch!
[HTC Sensation] Tomekks:
Sorry for the double-post.

But is this a dumb question that nobody is answering it?
[HTC Sensation] bigsupersquid:
http://slideme.org/application/mapdroyd

or you can search it on the market (which I don't have installed on my phone, thus the direct download site.)

it requires initial data use to pull down the maps to your sd card and it says it can be used offline after that.
[HTC Sensation] Tomekks:
Thanks for the idea but the sad thing is that it doesn't work as a GPS navigational software.

I am ready to buy navigational software for my phone, just need to know which one will fit our screen.
[HTC Sensation] fifdfifd:
iGO is very good navigation software but it doesnt support resolution of sensation. But if you search the forum you can find skins which make iGO can run with our device.

There are other alternatives like sygic and drive. These have native support to sensation. Route 66 will have support soon. Before you buy make sure, they have good maps

Major map providers are teleatlas, navteq and local providers. In my country local provider much better than the others. Teleatlas is generally better in europe.
[HTC Sensation] Zehlek:
For offline i prefer Navigon
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
I would recommend Sygic - it works fine on my Sensation. I have it for Europe. You can get Eastern Europe for 30Euros, and that includes Latvia. You can download the software from the Market and then buy the maps. Or download direct from Sygic. .
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
I use copilot and it works with sensation resolution
[HTC Sensation] webmasteryoda:
nDrive is excellent and works quite fine with good maps.
[HTC Sensation] pr0x2:
Navigon is the best for offline gps. But soon tomtom will also release a Android app. For now use Navigon it's not that expensive.
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
And I would not touch it with a ten foot barge pole! Their so called customer "support" is dreadful. I knew more about their product that the support people I was emailing! They told me it could not work on my hardware after I told them at it was. Been there done that got that T shirt. I do not want to go there again.
[HTC Sensation] pr0x2:
I used tomtom for years and that thing still works without problem. I cant wait for there app for Android.
[HTC Sensation] Tomekks:
At this moment I am looking at CoPilot. Will look into your suggestions too. Thank you for the responses!
[HTC Sensation] r3v0Lut10n:
sygic is the best so far ... (in my opinion)

tried : ndrive, navigon, copilot
[HTC Sensation] taffypride:
if I'm running Sense, then I use the built in Locations.

If I am running anything else, then NavFree works pretty well. Maps download to the SD card for offline navigation, clear concise instructions.
[HTC Sensation] peterc10:
+1 from me on that. Sygic is the best Android app for navigation
[HTC Sensation] danilo081:
I have to demand u all, i must relay on nav software a lot and IGO is the best

igo my way

most commercial software, top maps and updates every month... all countries to hous number level. 6 3rd pary local providers who also build maps from same source for topm toom ad garmin.

Igo is best form pna and pda...

there is fantastic skin for sensation resolution, which adds many new features.
[HTC Sensation] r3v0Lut10n:
are u paid for this or just joking ? :) the most recent "skinned" version is 8.4 ... Laggy, and not handy to use. (poi system unusable, many many function missing) Telling this that way, i was using it since the win mob 6.0 times .... (till my 1st android phone > than tried it, and than came sygic and others).

and always remember : no official igo for android phones ... (a couple phone got oem version and those were "suited" to other phones). it was a lame step from navngo, but hey ... it was years ago :) i'm happy with my current selection
[HTC Sensation] tzolov:
In my opinion Navigon is the best :} Try some navis and decide what is best for you!
[HTC Sensation] J1Lock:
You can also try "Locus". It's a map application which supports Offline Vector Maps, so it doesnt need much space on SD Card.

It also supports navigation, but i didnt tested that feature very much.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerarts:
Hello

I just published Animify which allows you to associate sounds and animations with a bunch of different system notifications (eg low battery, boot load complete, screen on, unlock, keyboard attach/detach, keyboard slide in/out, etc).

Existing 1.0.0 features:

* reverse animation

* resize animation

* position animation on screen

* play animation slower/faster

* pick from various included animations (star wars, harry potter, star trek, transformers, etc)

* play your own animation file (only animated .gif supported right now)

* It also allows you to play a sound file at the same time as the animation.

** play at system volume or override to always play at a specific volume.

** pick from various included sounds (again, star wars, harry potter, star trek, transformers, etc)

** play your own selected sound file (most formats supported)

My question is about other features that people might want?

Some ideas I have:

* build your own animation a frame at a time

** optionally use camera to capture the images

* add vibration for notifications (intensity/duration configurable)

* support other animation formats (.swf, animate .png.. others?)

* more included animations and/or sounds (such as?)

* ability to easily browse for sounds and/or animations online (I'm thinking something like zedge, though I'm not exactly sure how that is done)

If these or any other features interest you (or you think are a bad idea/waste of time) let me know.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerarts:
For what it is worth, I've added sms notification support to Animify. You can choose an animation and/or sound for a specific contact and you can also choose a default to play for the rest of your contacts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerarts:
FWIW - I've also added a free/lite version of the app:
