[Motorola Atrix 2] dzr:
I posted this in the old Atrix 4G forum, before this existed. I now have an a partial answer to C. More comments / questions embedded.

I just came from the Windows Mobile world and needed to research how to listen / watch live streams.

A) Trying to listen to streaming audio (mp3) from a webpage. Leaving the web browser stops the audio. Besides trying to find the stream in a separate program, is there a browser (or other way) to keep the music playing?

B) Is there a way to keep the music streaming with the screen off (to save battery power)?

>>Item A/B I have yet to find a webbrowser which will continue to play in the background or stream with the screen off. Other music programs do work.

C) Is there a way to get embedded WMV/WMA (http/mms/.wmv/.wma/.asx/.asp) to stream, embedded or kicked off from a webpage?

I still can't fine a program which a browser will kick off if the browsers doesn't support it internally for an embedded media file. Any ideas?

Regarding entering in URLs directly. Using XiiiaLive I am able to stream a *.pls file and *.asx file. And in order to get the *.asp file to work, I'm able to open the file in a webbrowser, which then kicks off XiiiaLive and it works.

Unfortunately, it only plays the audio of video streams (even an *.wma) and on a recorded stream, you still can't fastforward or rewind. This is the only program I have found on the market that seems to support the various playlists / wrappers. I haven't found such a player for video.

In order to play WAV voicemail files in email, I used Remote Wave. It currently has a bug, that you need to kill it between uses. They are working on it.

I have been using the phone during my runs and out of 6 runs I have yet to have music last the whole time. I have used iheart and I have used the radio and both times after about 15-25 mins it will stop. Don't know.if lose signal or if runkeeper is doing it but it pisses me off.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Do you have task manager set to kill any apps or your music player. If so that could be the cause.
[Motorola Atrix 2] ghettopops:
No. Why would that help? Think too many going on so system shuts it down?
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
No I had similar problems with my OG. When I set it to kill a few apps I had accidentally set it to automatically shut off my music payer also and it drove me crazy till I found it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Hoodeddeathman:
Just a quick thought, whilst flashing the misus' sensation I found that it's running the notes application similar to the flyer. I love how it works. Any chance of a port in the near future? I'd love to do it myself but don't have the knowledge. Hopefully it won't just benefit me.

Thanks for your time.

[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Anyone here a fan of Catan? Bought the app and have a problem with it rebooting my phone every 20 minutes of play or so. Emailed the dev team only to get a response telling me to use a task killer to free up memory and included a link that says why Android doesn't need task killers. I find this kind of answer unacceptable as my wife's fascinate runs the game fine. Maybe there's a memory leak in the x2? I refuse to run task killers since they are not needed.

*Update 11/24

Attempted to use the V6 SuperCharger script to manage the memory better and lock the app into memory etc. It was a no go. Going to call the customer service after the holiday and see where that goes. I'll keep this posted when I find something.

X2 on liberty 31 using golauncher / stock launcher

and on liberty3 stock launcher

and on Eclipse 1.3 stock launcher
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
so either no one knows what Catan is, or cares...or thought this was a free app for people?
[Motorola Droid X2] dust.:
Have no idea what it is... sorry man.

[Motorola Droid X2] atomikhippo:
I have the Catan app but i have yet to play it for 20min. When i do i'll give you a heads up. It might be the Liberty rom you're using.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Thanks. I'll try it with Eclipse today. I did also try it on the new Liberty with the same results...but Liberty is Liberty I suppose.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
No worries. I figured that was the case for most people. It's a euro board game, very fun, that got created for ios and android. I play the physical game all the time, check it out sometime if you like board games...think civilization, but WAY faster to play and WAY less complicated.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
So, I flashed Eclipse 1.3...still rebooted after ~20 minutes of play. What I can't determine is if the X2 has a memory leak or can't manage apps good enough, or if the catan app is bad. Problem is, it works fine in the fascinate and other apps work fine on the X2 so which one is broken....one of them has to be
[Motorola Droid X2] genpat:
Didn't realize they even had a Catan app...I might download this and let you know how it goes for me too
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
run V6supercharger and do the oom groupings fix option. u very well may be surprised with the results.. it will change what priority Android kills apps ...I have found it to be a major help with things like this...
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Thanks ash, I'll go try that now.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
be sure to make a nandroid first just in case. usually everything is just fine. but just in case u bootloop u will want to restore.

I recommend V6supercharger update8 to be safe. the newer versions are great but if u never used it b4 u r gonna want to use the "basic" version first to get used to it. and all the newer ones are just RC'S anyway(release candidate) they are not finals like update 8 was.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
I ended up getting update9 rc4...having dome issues, but hopefully will get worked out. Issues:

1. From terminal emulator I get either permission denied (after an su) or file not found (spelled correctly in the correct directory)

2. From root file manager it seems to take over 10 minutes to run? It does add a supercharger folder and HTML file, but this seems like a long time for a script. (Hopefully I'm wrong and it's installing stuff too making it take longer)

3. Dled romtoolbox and added the script. It ran...but apparently I didn't copy the whole thing. I'll try that again if this pass of #2 above doesn't work.

Question: how do I know it is installed, and will the changes be there after every boot? I haven't needed to run scripts before this phone. Thanks.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
sorry I should have specified.

get script manager from market and run it using that.

be sure to check run as root.

before running it u are going to want to go into script manager settings and turn off the "extra gestures " setting so u are able to scroll correctly. and u also want to turn on browse as root.

if u made a nandroid before running what u did I would restore that then do these things to be sure u have a clean install.

then after u reboot just run supercharger script again and it will tell u if it is installed and running correctly.

script manager has a free and a paid version in market.

that is the tool u want to use to run the script trust me. it makes it very easy

oh and by the way...since eclipse has init.d support there will be no reason to use script manager to run anything at boot. it will run every time.

if u happen to use one of the options to change minfree values((u don't need to do that.)) but if u do you will want to go ti system/etc/init.d and edit the 98tweaks file that comes with eclipse. u will want to delete the lines in 98tweaks that refer to minfree values(says something like "aggressive values etc...") but it isn't necessary if u just do the oom groupings fix and htk launcher.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Awesome, thanks. I did see reference to script manager, but thought I'd try it without first...guess I know what I'm doing next :)
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
yeah just make sure u change the settings I mentioned. if u don't turn off extra gestures setting it will type a bunch of random characters when u try to scroll. its VERY simple to use.

feel free to private message me if u need any help as well.

my gmail will alert me quickly so I can get back to ya

let me know if u need any tips ;) its thanks giving...don't forget to hit thanks button...Hahaha ...just kidding ...im a thanks whore Hahaha...

also. I usually change the file type from pdf to .sh...just rename the file with whatever file explore u use. its bot necessary but I do it ;)

when running it using script manager u will see an option to choose to use terminal emulator if you prefer it but script manager is very simple/easy to use. have fun with it. its an awesome script for making our x2 run how it should. enjoy :D
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
That's funny, I tried saying thanks...but the xda app doesn't let me. I'll do it later. Got the script working. The problem was that my file browser was executing the script...without any way for me to see the output and make selections haha. Script manager did the trick.

On another note, the Catan app still crashed. The first time was in 10 minutes, but only brought me to the home screen. The second one made it reboot after 20 like before. I think I'm going to try the oom group fix with bulletproof launcher instead of hard to kill. And change to the 513hp aggressive setting.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Oh, and I made sure to have all the settings correct ;)
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
bulletproof launcher will lock home app in memory. kinda takes up ram by not allowing home to be killed. .

maybe try option 9(used to be on.older version) for different minfree settings ...
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Well, thanks anyway ash. It was a good thought. I tried every setting, including different minfrees and even bulletproofing the Catan app itself. It still reboots after 20 minutes. I even went into the script after reboots to make sure the settings were sticking...they were.
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
And I unbulletproofed the launcher to get that memory back
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
all I can concur from these results is that it is a problem/conflict from the app itself against the X2 and gownit operates..and due to the dev response to ur issue I feel they don't understand enough about what's happening here. maybe they have different levels of support(like vzw) where the first tier don't. know jack and u gotta fight to get someone who can help ya out...

sorry...hope u get a solution soon bro
[Motorola Droid X2] hitman_dreams:
Yeah, at least I got a nice script running out of this :beer:

I found a contact phone number that I'll try after the holidays and keep this updated for others just in case. Thanks again.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BetaMan10:
So I made the dumb mistake of trying to install CWM Recovery through Rom Manager. I chose the Epic 4G Touch as the option. Now when I boot though it boots into some odd recovery saying update file is backed up: reportedted manual mode updating appliction installing apks. successfully updated application. I can move the volume up and down that works, but when I hit the power button it doesn't do anything when I am on the options. I have tried flashing the Stock EG30 that didn't work, I tried flashing the kernals with recovery and those just bring up that recovery all the time, but I still can't hit the power button because nothing happens. Anyone have any idea what I should do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] psych2l:
The newer CWM recoveries use the capacitive touch buttons for selection, did you try pressing those?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BetaMan10:
:) Ok now I feel like a noob that seemed to work thanks. It's backup and running
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] psych2l:
Glad you got it all sorted out :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gqstatus0685:
It took me a bit to figure that out. How do I boot into recovery then? I flasged CWM through ROM manager and can't boot into it to flash my ROM's?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] No_Nickname90:
Some ways are:

ROM manager, when you choose to "Install ROM from SD Card" then it'll let you choose and boot from there.

Using ADB run

[adb reboot recovery]

make sure "USB Debugging" is checked

Power Off phone.

Hold (Power + Vol-Up Key) That boots into Recovery.

Supposed there are some apps that do it as well.

This is one I keep hearing about.

P.S. You should install that directly from a computer. It's so fun doing that. :p

Confuse why anybody using Rom Manager for anything other that maybe fix permissions... Sorry just my thoughts on the subject..

Just a heads up to anyone looking at screen protectors. A couple of people have recommended these on the forums. They definitely do not fit edge to edge compared to the previous wet application screen protectors I have applied......but they are close enough.....they appear and feel very similar to the naked screen.

[HTC EVO 3D] lchupacabras:
From my experience these are great, except they do attract a lot of finger prints + oil. I'm running naked right now and I love that I can wipe off any smudges or fingerprints w/ one swift wipe on my tshirt.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
So......would you recommend them?
[HTC EVO 3D] lchupacabras:
lol yeah definitely; the oil issue is present w/ pretty much any plastic screen protector. However, these are glass-smooth and perfectly transparent; no rainbowing or anything like that. For the price, really, there is no better deal.
[HTC EVO 3D] stanglifemike:
The FLSuperstore screen protectors have been mentioned on here for quite a while. I am still using them an highly recommend them!!! Best $1.50 spent!!!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LycaonX:
I just swapped my Samsung Galaxy Tab with a Xoom and I'm a bit miffed. I understand that the Xoom has 32GB of internal storage and does not come with an external SD card (or at least the person I bought it from kept the card).

With my SGT, when I plugged it into my Win7 64bit PC, the SD card would come up as a USB mass storage device.

Is there any way to do this with the internal storage of the Xoom? It's aggravatingly SLOW transferring files through the Personal Music Player icon that Win7 tosses in My Computer. I (as well as several other apps I use) would rather have a physical drive letter to copy to and from.

Not afraid to use a custom ROM or a modded apk or other system file. Yes, I did search and I also read the suggested topics that came up on the posting page, nothing was specifically related to the Xoom.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaytex24:
Yes. The Tiamat Rom, as well as the official 3.2 update activated the SD card slot in the xoom. No, the Xoom didnt ever come with a sdcard already in the slot like phones do, so you didnt get ripped off. the xoom file system is a little funny, "SDcard" is a seperate partition in the internal memory. If using Tiamat, and you have a sdcard in the sdcard slot, its labeled "external1" in the /mtn partition. When first placing an sd card in the slot, the system does take f o r e v e r, to recognize it (make sure you are also pushing the "mount sdcard" button in the storage settings menu). I generally just reboot the xoom after mounting a new card, that usually speeds up the process. When its all said and done when you plug the xoom into your pc you will get two hard drives that pop up, internal and sdcard. And heads up, you still cant put apps2sd like phones can, and you have to use root manager to move files from internal sdcard to external.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LycaonX:
Yeah, that's the problem. At the moment, I don't have an SD card to put in it, but I was still expecting the internal storage to be mapped to a hard drive. I don't mind the Xoom showing up as a PMP but a lot of the apps I use as a developer (and some I use recreationally) need an actual drive letter :( I was hoping that even without an SD card mounted, that the internal storage would show up as a local disk. I've got 3.2.2 if that helps any.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LycaonX:
Bought several SD cards, seems one of the contacts on the inside is dead, so I'm out as far as SD cards are concerned :(
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
If that's the case, you got a bad deal. Generally, the Xoom is excellent and though you can work around it, having the sdcard feels pretty essential to me. Hopefully you can get it fixed or get your other tab back.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LycaonX:
The contact wasn't dead, it had a piece of clear plastic tape over it (not intentionally, it was a corner of what looks like shipping or packing tape). Got a whopping 4GB SD card plugged in, shows up fine under /mnt/external1 but neither of them are showing up as drives in Explorer :(

I've got 3.2.2, 4G build (HLK75D), tried this with and without root, no luck with any config.

Edit: Okay, lots of searching later, and it seems Google thought it was a wonderful idea to not include such functionality with Honeycomb. I am extremely well versed in c++ but I have never written a driver before, but I will be downloading and studying the Windows Driver Development Kit and seeing if I can write a replacement driver specifically for the Xoom to create an MTP to Logical Disk bridge driver.

In effect, you'll replace the standard Windows MTP Driver for the Xoom with this custom driver, which will bridge MTP to a lettered drive in Windows Explorer. Yeah, I know it's a complicated step but I want my damn Xoom to have drive letters in Explorer and as a programmer, I usually end up solving my own problems when the software giants pull retarded stuff like this.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Cool. Let us know when you've got it. I'm sure there will be interest for such a driver.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LycaonX:
Just an update, the MTP side of the bridge appears rather simple to do. I may see why Google decided on MTP instead of the old unmount/mount dance. MTP allows the device to basically 'share' the storage without isolating it to a single device. Although if a hobbyist programmer like me can feasibly believe that they can program an MTP bridge, I don't see why the college educated, career programmers at Google couldn't do the same.

Basically what I am looking at is a driver that will bridge the MTP side of the Xoom over to a virtual hard disk device in Windows. It looks like I'll need to implement a way to present the virtual drive as a FAT32 (or maybe NTFS) formatted device, since software-wise all a virtual disk handles are pointers to what amounts to the 'raw' areas of a disk. Still working on it, as mentioned before I'm a hobbyist and have never dug into driver development.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
I forgot that Team Tiamat had implemented usb mass storage in an earlier verion of their Xoom kernel, but decided to remove it as it caused many complications. Look in the back pages of the Development section, for tiamat kernels and also dinomite's mass storage watcher thread. You may be able to find something you can use.

[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Just tried watching a movie on my phone on the girlfriend's tv and got nothing... it's really annoying me now too.

-Plugged hdmi into each of the 4 ports on the tv in case was a bad port

-Tried 2 different phone chargers into a power strip AND tried extension cord from wall (nothing was open directly in the wall)

**Got nothing from those steps**

-Plugged adapter in to pc monitor with hdmi input and charger directly to wall, got picture

-Plugged hdmi into dvd player to test the tv, got picture

My first thought is the charger isn't getting a good connection to the powerstrip because the plug in front of it kinda prevents it from going in all the way - HOWEVER the phone does receive power and charged through it.

But that's why I tried an extension cord right off the wall, so not sure what it could be.

Does the TV have to be newer and support an mhl adapter? I thought you had MHL which required the TV to support AND then there was the adapter that worked with all hdmi (thus it being an adapter).

I have a problem with my Galaxy Tab! Εvery now and then my Galaxy Tab give me a black screen with problem name: sim detach notifier and then my tab restarts alone!! Is there any solution for this problem?

Edit: I searched on Google to find a solution and i found that is a problem from the Sim card....., it is dirty or something like this, and now i'm using another one and it is ok....! Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniele.bonfiglio:
suggestion: freeze sim deta chnotifier with titanium backup

This problem happens to me too, time to time.

Freezing sim detach notifier with titanium backup should fix this. In fact, I have just checked that after freezing, if I really detach the sim card nothing happens and the tab does not reboot.

EDIT.

It is still possible that the sim card becomes "detached" after freezing sim detach notifier. This happened to me one time yesterday. However, the tab does not reboot, you just see the "no sim card" icon in the notification bar and of course you cannot place and receive phone calls, surf the internet, etc.. To enable this again you just switch to airplane mode and then go back to normal mode. By the way, when looking at the alogcat messages I noticed that the system keeps on calling sim detach notifier forever after the "detach" event: as soon as sim detach notifier is unfreezed, the tab does reboot...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teacher1960:
This problem was big for me and I had to get a new one in the end. I've heard other tab owners who had the same problem, so maybe the tab is sensitive for problems in this area.
