[Motorola Photon 4G] ADiamond75:
I am having the same problem - continually get an error with the Wireless tether app when installed saying that access is not granted.

I have run root checker and it says I'm rooted. I try to connect and it just never seems to connect - and then my wireless connection on my laptop has to be turned off and then back on to function at all - its like the ad-hoc network just doesn't want to work on my phone. I have also tried various other tethering applications to no avail.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Tdogg0406:
thanks, that's one of the first things I did, just to be sure. I have tried each of the betas, including the latest (beta5) that just came out. I have tried tethering to my laptop (win7), my touchpad, and my hackintosh dual boot, both the windows 7 and osx side. None of them can connect. Whenever I start the wifi tether app, I do get the Access control denied error, but I assume everyone is getting that due to the kernel?
[Motorola Photon 4G] car_lost:
Make sure you guys have the superuser app installed. You can get it in the market.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Tdogg0406:
Already installed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Coop486:
From what I've read on support pages of tether apps, they haven't included the drivers for the Photon so rooted devices will only give you adhoc tethering. Some devices can't make an adhoc connection, such as android tablets.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Tdogg0406:
Makes sense to me. I'm new to Android, is this something (the drivers) that will eventually be incorporated into the various wifi tether applications as the phone is "out" longer?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Coop486:
It's not always the case. It's completely up to the developers of those apps to. There are plenty of phones that have been out much longer than the Photon that aren't yet supported.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PieceKeepr:
I read in a lot of threads where people recommend wiping "cache and Dalvik-cache" to fix a variety of problems. I know apps have their own cache but does the Eris have a cache other than Dalvik? I'm using GSB 3.8 and I don't see another cache, but maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MongooseHelix:
Dalvik-cache files are split up into two different locations. The dex files for your system apps are in /cache/dalvik-cache and the dex files for your installed apps are in /data/dalvik-cache. The popular cache2cache script moves the files from data/dalvik-cache to the cache partition to provide more space on the data partition.

Besides dalvik-cache files, the /cache partition is also where market apps are temporarily downloaded before being installed.

Hope that helps.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PieceKeepr:
OK, I use Zach's C2C script so clearing one dalvik location clears both and I was aware of the temp download location also. I guess I'm not missing anything, but I wanted to be sure. Thanks.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechKidTarek:
yes all the internals will be the same just with a white paintjob it may come with new firmware not released yet if so it might take a few days or weeks for devs to root it
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mcabx0:
I have been having this this problem for a few months now, where I can get it charged to 91%, but that's it. It seemed to start when I installed the 2.3.3 update then I installed the 2.3.4 update and same thing. then I down graded rooted then flashed cm7 still had the same problem. So I ordered a seidio 3500mah 3.7v extended battery and read up on the best way to cycle the charge and the charge it fully then clear my battery cache, drain it fully, then charge all the way with the phone off. but I can never get it to fully charge. I thought maybe the stock battery on my g2 but I guess not any suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Spastic909:
Try to delete battery stats in recovery
[G2 and Desire Z General] ChocBoyWonder:
I actually just had this problem but couldnt charge past 41%. lucky my phone was 10 months old and my provider sent it to HTC to look at. They replaced the system board.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mcabx0:
ok i called t-mobile they said that the will replace the phone so i guess i gotta downgrade back to 2.2 to send the phone back

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] couto607:
So I picked up my tablet today and started fooling around with it installing apps etc. I read that this tablet has support for .mkv video files so I tried a couple of those but noticed that the playback was very choppy. I then tried converting a few into .mp4 which didn't seem to help much because those were also quite choppy.

Had anybody else experienced this? Are there any solutions for fixing this?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antic604:
I'm assuming you're using stock video player, right? Why don't you try e.g. MX Video Player and then experiment with software / hardware decoding options? Since I've been using it I've seen no more stutters in video. The app is free.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattSkeet:
I've downloaded 720P film 4gb and it plays smooth on stock and Diceplayer. I think it's the way it's encoded. But your best choice is to buy Diceplayer that uses hardware acceleration its totally worth it and its constantly updated...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] couto607:
I tried diceplayer but it didn't make a difference. How are you encoding the video?

I noticed that it's smooth when the video is 720p, but it lags when it's 1080p. I thought it could support 1080p video?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattSkeet:
Now why would you play 1080p on screen that does not support it? It is hd screen but not full hd.

720p will be easily playable up to 600Kbits.

I downloaded (from a dodgy source if you know what I mean) Indiana Jones and somehow i cannot play it its only 2GB, whereas 4gb pirates of the Caribbean runs smoothly even on stock player.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dario69:
Because it rescales the video and depending on the codecs and bit rates it can run just fine. Same reason why I play 720p on my Captivate. Because I can and it looks great and fits the screen nice.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] couto607:
Last i checked this tablet is supposed to playback 1080p videos no problem.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5thElement:
Another video thread and more confused people.

The Tegra 2 is NOT capable of playing most HD video. The video accelerator which decodes the stream (this is separate from the GPU) is too slow to decode most HD video.

People need to understand the encoding profiles to understand why. The Tegra 2 is only capable of decoding 1080p stream ONLY if the video was encoding using Baseline setting profile. The problem is NOBODY uses Baseline profile to encode h.264 video because its obsolete and offers poor compression.

So what do we have left? We have Main profile and High profile.

Tegra 2 can only decode 720p Main profile at LOW bitrate only. If the video is encoded with Main profile over 4mb/s bitrate you are out of luck as the Tegra 2 is simply too slow to decode it. You can forget High profile encoded video unless its encoded in super low bitrate.

So what the problem? The problem is NOBODY encodes in Baseline profile.

You have to understand Tegra 2 is a VERY old chip. Almost 2 years old now and the GPU and video accelerator is the same as the ANCIENT Tegra 1 from about 3 years ago.

The moral of the story is Tegra 2 is NOT fast enough to decode most of todays HD videos. The best you can do is re-encode the videos you want in Baseline profile. Ya, what a PITA....Thank Tegra 2 for that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattSkeet:
Every time I see something you posted makes me vomit.

You write such bs that im starting to believe that you don't own any android device at all.

Pirates.Of.The.Caribbean.On.Stranger.Tides.2011.720p.BRRip.x264.AAC-ViSiON

Limitless.2011.UNRATED.720p.BRRip.x264.AAC-ViSiON

Both of these play perfectly on stock player and Diceplayer

This is max what you can get out of 4gb file that will fit the honeycomb filesystem
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nextract:
Oh god more troll nonsense, listen at the end of the day we have a fantastic tablet that plays back most everything ive thrown at it using the stock player and dice/mxplayer. Bottom line these devices are not designed to replace a media center, they are portable devices that are designed for convenience, and i think the Tegra2 is a fantastic chipset. The screen itself is 720p, there is no reason to be watching 1080p video on the device. It will give you a slightly sharper picture assuming the internal scaler is effective but nothing more. I dont know what this guy is talking about the tegra2 being an old chip, its probably the most advanced CPU/GPU combination on the market, considering we have 100's of people in the dev community continually finding ways to push every bit of power out of it beyond stock.

Stop trolling threads dude, people want answers not smart ass speculation.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5thElement:
I am sorry but your post offer no useful information. I checked the Limitless movie and its only encoded at 1840 Kbps. Thats pretty low bitrate and as I stated the tegra 2 can play that back in Baseline or Main. If that movie was encoded at 5mbps Main profile it would choke the tegra 2.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRatJr:
I am unsure what options I should choose in the NAND backup section. I usually just leave it on the default (data, system, boot). Backing up only these three will make the ROM to like I had it before correct? Or do I need to select extra options? Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlazinThat:
I do em all just to make sure, but would be good to know.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Backing up .android_secure will back up apps that you've moved to the SD card using the built in apps to SD that was introduced in FroYo. Backing up sd-ext will backup your ext partition if you have one. If you don't know what an ext partition is or how to use it, you probably don't have it and don't need to back it up. I have a separate backup of only wimax and don't back it up every time. It isn't something that you need to restore every time, so I'd make a wimax backup once and keep it safe. I can't remember what other options there are, if any. I usually just backup boot, data, and system since I never move apps to my SD card. If they install to my SD card, I move them to internal memory. They run better there, and I've never even come close to running out of internal memory.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khilbron:
When doing your firsr backup always do 2 backups. One backup with everything unchecked except WIMAX. You always want to keep this backup incase your 4g ever stops working. After that make a backup with only boot system and data checked. Do this and you will be all set. Also I recommend downloading titanium backup and making a backup of every app that you use on a frequent basis.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRatJr:
Thanks man. And I have a backup of my RSA keys that I got through a root method. It has wimax.img in it. Same thing correct?

[DISCUSSION] WebOS APPS

Amazon Cloud Player tip

Other than the music stopping when the screen turns off....amazons cloud player is perfectly compatible.

Load the web player website in landscape mode. After it loads...put it in portrait mode and you should be able to scroll through your lists.

this clearly has to do with the cloud player detecting the screen resolution...but without an app or SD card...I have to rely on the cloud player for music....would suck if it didnt work
[TouchPad General] Gigabytex:
I'm also from Puerto Rico ad I can confirm not all apps load in the Catalog. This is sad :( Anyway to bypass this location issue? I want kindle App :(

wipe your tablet and tell it you live in USA during setup and the whole market will be available. Search the forum, this was already covered.

During that setup i did tell it English, USA but the it recognized I was from Puerto Rico and didn't give me much of an option.
[TouchPad General] lynyrd65:
Here's what I think might work,

Connect a laptop to ethernet on your home internet connection then use VPN to connect to a vpn server in the lower (upper?) 48. Then set up your laptop to share internet over wifi (hotspot). Connect your touchpad to it then start over with registration etc.

[TouchPad General] yareally:
Static libraries could be imported without changes most likely, but Java is not officially supported in webos (it uses javascript based on nodejs I believe), so you would have to do a complete program/ui rewrite other than perhaps any c/c++ compiled libraries included (but the different libc version may require those to be recompiled).
[TouchPad General] Droga:
For all fellow puertorricans, heres how to get the US App store to work:

Option A: If you HAVENT set up your HP TouchPad

1. Go through the normal TP set up.

2. When you get to the part where it asks you to set up the web store, it will list Puerto Rico as the top option, followed by Qatar, etc.

3. On that very screen, scroll down and find United States.

4. Choose United States as your store.

5. Continue setting up the TP.

Option B: If you HAVE set up your HP TouchPad.

1. You will have to full erase your TouchPad. (Settings, Device Info, Reset Options, Full Erase) :(

2. Set up your TP with a new e-mail account (the old account settings will stick if you set it up, therefore not letting you access the store again).

3. Go through the normal TP set up.

4. When you get to the part where it asks you to set up the web store, it will list Puerto Rico as the top option, followed by Qatar, etc.

5. On that very screen, scroll down and find United States.

6. Choose United States as your store.

7. Continue setting up the TP.

This is the way I did it (second method), and I now have access to the US HP App Store. Also, just so you know, if you want to get in on the free app packs that HP is giving away, you MUST input your credit card information on your profile (here you can choose a PR credit card with no problem) in order for the screen where you input the promo codes to appear. Hope this helps anyone that is in the same situation (this should work for any other country as well, so feel free to test away).
[TouchPad General] Gigabytex:
Thanks a lot I'm gonna try that Option B, but with the erase apps and data option ( I loaded 10GBs of music to it :\) And report back to see if it works, if not then full erase it is. Thanks.

IT WORKS. No need of a VPN or anything, I just wish I had scrolled down the first time around. totally worth it, so many more apps. Thanks!
[TouchPad General] UntoldGlory:
Or, and here's another possibility, they're actually really, really good at marketing and are artificially creating a fever pitch among consumers. Whether this is to boost their own business (i.e. continuing to produce WebOS products internally), or to raise the value of WebOS before licencing externally, I have no idea.

Honestly there are only three reasons I can think of why a free digital download would have limits, and none of them are HP underestimating demand:

1) Developers of the apps would not agree to unlimited downloading, perhaps HP is even paying license fees.

2) Limit server overload.

3) Create/continue that firesale/after thanksgiving day doorbuster "OMG GOTTA GRAB IT NOW" feeling. I mean, right now, the Touchpad and WebOS is grabbing more media attention that ever before, even staying in the spotlight despite the announcement of Steve Jobs stepping down (timing seems a bit odd doesn't it?).

Again, I think they're making tactical marketing decisions to turn around a division that has not been performing up to expectations.
[TouchPad General] Droga:
Cool!! Im glad it works for you! I was bummed that I had to erase it, but in the end it is so much more worth it.
