[Milestone XT720 General] Similya:
Hello, I Finally tested swap support on my KOREAN XT720. It worked great, and I can now play the games that I was craving for.

We all know that doing a fastboot on custom boot.img is only temporary. Is there a way to make it permanent.?

What will happen if I flash a custom boot.img that support swap. Will it destroy the bootloader.? Will my device be unusable after flashing.? Has anyone tried it.?

I'm using the fjfalcon xt720 boot.img

Hope anyone out there would share there ideas about this. Thanks. . .
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Your phone will refuse to boot and you will be forced to flash stock sbf.
[Milestone XT720 General] Similya:
you mean, it will stuck at "M" logo.?

I did try flashing it using OpenRecovery, but I get MD5 Checksum Error. I created MD5 using MD5 Checksum Generator.

Is there other ways that you/they have tried to flash boot.img using like ADB Commands.?

There is also other changes that I observe after fastbooting the boot.img. Before, I always get a message saying "Function not implemented" after using;

swapon -a

or

swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

but after using fastboot, only

swapon -a

works but not

swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

Mioze7Ae, thanks for the reply :D

I downloaded 9mm hd powervr apk along with its sd data but when i run the game it says there is not enough space to download game data, even if i copy the data to sdcard /gameloft/game/ (i even downloaded differnet versions of the game ) note: i'm using the sd swap hack (vold.fstab) for i9003 4gb. so my internal sd shows 16gb all other games work like asphalt 6, nfs hot pursuit and modern combat 2.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gatorhater73:
I'm not sure which forum to be posting this in, so I'm going to start with the general Android forum... I'm an avid defender of Android vs. iPhone enthusiasts, but I've noticed, since my wife got an iPhone (I know, I know....) that there is an MMS feature that I am completely jealous of... When recording a video in HD, the MMS messaging app AUTOMATICALLY re sizes it for sending via MMS. You can actually leave the video recording quality set to "HD" without having to change it manually to some ridiculously low resolution in order to send it via MMS. My question is, is there a setting that I've just completely missed that tells Android to do this? Or possibly an app or a mod?

Hello,

I'm french. I would like to buy an english TouchPad, because, all french retailers, don't have the TouchPad in stock.

I would like to know, if it's possible to change the language of the layout, qwerty to azerty one ?

Thanks for help
[TouchPad General] Tykin:
Yes. In webOS for the HP Touchpad, you can go to Settings --> Regional Settings --> Keyboard Type and change from an "English Qwerty" keyboard to a "French Azerty" keyboard. You can also change the Default Language of the Touchpad to German, English, Spanish, French, and Italian.

As for Android (if you plan on installing CM7), you will have the option of picking your own keyboard, language, etc.

Hope this helps!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zirus69:
hi,

I want to know whats the best way (format & quality, an app) to watch some movies on the nook. It no need to be in best quality but it should work.

;-) just for my wife to kill time before getting the baby in the hospital ....

do you have any suggestion?

thanks for your help!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaysckap:
My wife uses netflix, works great. What is the status of your nook? Stock or rooted?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveZ_PDX:
If you're running CM7...

I just did a lot of this for my wife who was convalescing...To covert to a format I can watch on the NC, I use AVS Tools video converter, but any converter will work fine for media you have rights to; there is an M4v* conversion preset for the iphone (720p) which works great on nook color (I run CM7 & use standard movie player). NO tweaks really needed, but I set the frame rate to 29.97 to match the source. Smaller video sizes don't seem to make much difference in file size. With CM7 the google videos you can dnload work great on Nook Color.

For loading, I suggest transferring via your SD card, wireless transfers of movies takes forever.

* Nice format as I can then load same files on my wife's ipad. Yeah she gets the cadillac tablet, I get the tweakers tab...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angomy:
If running CM7 -

I suggest mobo player with the moboplayer codec for armv7vfp3 (two separate apps on Google Market). I've had extremely smooth playback with software decoded files that I was too lazy to convert to a supported format.

If encoding for Nook Color in general (CM7 or stock):

MP4 container, H.264 baseline profile, up to 854x480 resolution. Technically the screen is 1024 x 600 but NCs have a hardware limitation for decoding higher than 854x480, YMMV with that.

I use DVD Catalyst 4 (paid software, was $10? I think) which has several Nook Color presets (and updated recently for Nook Tablet) as well as other tablets and phones, such as the Xoom. Just easier to click the preset, adjust for subtitles/alternative voice track if needed, then set a whole batch of videos to recode.

I've used free applications like Handbrake, for which you can get a preset profile for the Nook Color. I just like the ease of DVDC4 for converting both digital and hard media.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cruecu:
on cm7

no need to convert anything
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeramyEggs:
The vlc beta works really well. I like mobo too, just had some syncing issues with a few of my xvid avis.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zirus69:
Thanks for all the feedback. I have some DVDs she would like to see (means converting?) . I use the NC with CM7 (1 month old NL version) from SD.

So what's the best way?

Thanks!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spr8dogg:
Handbrake is definitely the best for DVD conversion. It has easy to use presets. I'be had good luck with iPod touch preset. Reasonable file size and decent video quality.

I use Rock player to play my avi's

http://www.appbrain.com/app/rockplayer-lite/com.redirectin.rockplayer.android.unified.lite
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angomy:
FREE: Handbrake with some preset profile, there were a few here. For a basic, no-frills, very customizable encoder, it's very good. And it's free.

PAID: IMO, DVD Catalyst 4. $10. I'm in no way affiliated with the company, just have been a very happy customer with the ease of use/results. With minimal tinkering I've gotten better results for some tricky conversions (e.g., multiple episodes, multiple sound tracks/subtitling options, widescreen) than with Handbrake. For me it's worth the money not to have to spend time tinkering with test encodes, tweaking settings, etc. so I can just batch jobs up and do other things.

YMMV, of course.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fossicker:
streaming videos from share to Nook Color

I "stream" all my videos to my Nook Color via 802.11g using CifsManager and VitalPlayer software decoding. Occasionally the video I'm watching will be hardware decoded by VitalPlayer if the codec is correct. And occasionally, if watching a big .mkv file I get a little chatter with only 54Mb 802.11g, but that's very rare.

It beats the hell out of copying video files to /mnt/emmc or /mnt/sdcard over wireless.

1) grab VitalPlayer from the Market (free version is OK, the ads only show up when the controls are visible)

2) grab CifsManager from the Market.

3) Configure your share on any old computer/NAS and put video files in it. Know these things: the workgroup, the share perms (username/password) and leave the NTFS perms at Everyone Full Control.

4) on your Nook Color, use Terminal to create folder /mnt/cifs

5) fire up CifsManager and connect to your share point, mounting it to /mnt/cifs, remembering to specify the path, workgroup, username and password. When the dot in CifsManager is green, you're mounted.

6) using File Explorer, or Root Explorer on your Nook Color (any Android file manager will do) browse to /mnt/cifs/[share name] and browse your video files. Select the video to play.

7) Select VitalPlayer if asked, and set to default if desired.

8) Wait a few seconds for VitalPlayer to start your video. Usually it will display "Software Decoding" before it starts playing.

I've never met a codec that VitalPlayer didn't like.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unsivil_audio:
OR you could just download ES File Explorer and Rock Player from the market, and browse your Windows Media Server(s) on your network, playing files through Rock Player (which supports almost any file type for wireless streaming).
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al mon:
I use Mobo for the NC.

However, I do have a strange problem. On my Xoom, I can reach my NAS using ES File Explorer and it will stream to the Xoom.

If I use the NC to the exact same file, it will try to download the file and play it locally. I'm assuming that it will also only work for files that are re-encoded for the NC format and if its not, it will just simply chock on playback.

How does an app like Netflix do it? Do they have various encoded versions or is there some transition layer within the Netflix APK?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveZ_PDX:
Not sure - I have used ES File to access movies, and they stream. If it's the wrong file format though ES File will open a browser window. So make sure it's a m4v of the right dimensions etc & it should stream.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unsivil_audio:
The player is what supports the streaming Not the file explorer. Rock Player is the only one I've used that worked for streaming. ES media player would try and cache the file locally first.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveZ_PDX:
OK, makes sense...I was using Mobo when streaming.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fpga_guy:
viewing really wide screen movie

For those born before 1970, there's a great movie called How the West Was Won (HWWW). The aspect ratio is wider that 16:9. When I play on NC, the aspect ratio is wrong. Yet viewing the m4k file with VLC on my PC, the aspect ratio is correct.

TV shows and other movies display correctly on NC.

Why does the native movie player or the ES Explorer view change the aspect ratio. Any suggestions?

[LG Optimus 2x] luka2858:
Are the 0725 v10d and 0725 v20l baseband the same? Because i have flashed acidentley 0725v10d. Does that make any difference or not.. thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
They are probably different, as one is for Froyo and the other for GB. But many people reports that they both work with GB, but we don't know why LG gave them the same ID. It's not very long to restore a backup, so if your ROM doesn't work very well in call quality, etc, you'll just have to flash the proper 20L one.
[LG Optimus 2x] luka2858:
Is there a way to know witch is witch.

I have downloaded getrill app and it says i have 0725(v20l italy)rill and that is a match with my bb. I guess that i have a gb bb,or?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
If you are on a stock-based ROM you can enter the hidden menu by dialling 1809#*990#, then select "Version Info" and look at "Factory Version." That's the real baseband version.
[LG Optimus 2x] luka2858:
It says v10d. I would have to flash gb bb.
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
I am in Temesek's latest kangCM7...how do i know which BB i am in?how can i enter the hidden menu?

Thanks in advance....
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
As far as I know you can't, there's no "hidden menu" or equivalent in CM7. Leaving only two options:

1) Backup, restore a stock-based ROM, examine the hidden menu, restore CM7.

2) Use your memory to figure out which baseband you flashed the last time ;-)

I'd go with option two.
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
Going by the memory, I had flashed V20L and then did a full wipe-Cache,data and dalvik....to remove the bootanimation i had accidentally installed....but went into no signal for the mobile...so i did a restore after flashing the ROM again....

so, i dont know if i have gone back in the BB?

Please advise.

Thanks in anticipation
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
The baseband can only be flashed in the following ways:

o Flashing a .kdz-file.

o Flashing a .fls-file via smartflash

o Upgrading via the LG Mobile Tool.

Flashing a ROM via CWM does NOT change the baseband.

If you have done none of the above then you still have the baseband you've had since the last time you did any of the above. The regular version info will be enough to identify it. (Settings/About Phone/Baseband version.)
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
Then, I am in V20L. Now, if I flash via CWM, a restore of Topo 2SP3 and HP SR1, do i still have the same baseband? Whats the effect on the device? Topo's ROM is based on V20E....isnt it? When I check after restoring...i think normally find V20E....maybe i am wrong...

I am proud to be part of this Forum....you guys really are a great support for tiny guys like me....

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Yes.

Mostly, with some parts from later versions. As for the effects - that's a complicated issue. Basically the baseband controls everything radio-related on your device (and a few other things), most importantly the communication with the cell-towers.

Anecdotally, people have reported all kind of effects from changing baseband, the most obvious one being different sound-quality in calls. For a full explanation of what a baseband does and does not do it's probably best to search and read, search and read.
[Windows Phone 7 General] returned4good:
I, personally, hate the new HTC Hub. I think it's full of wasted space and prefer the older version. I hate how they add a list of cities I've never been to and will never visit. I'm not an international business man, just a regular user in the US. Why the hell would I care if it's raining in Moscow and sunny in Tokyo? Don't care about New York or LA either. And I'm pretty sure that most people don't dabble in stocks. That feature should be optional. I just think they could have done better with the space they had. And the graphic animations were kinda cool in the old one. :)

/end rant

Anyways, I was wondering if other people felt this way. Tell me what you think.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Budniu:
I prefer newest version because:

- weather fullscreen animation and sounds effect (IMO - nice),

- Stocks - I use that for show exchange rates (my currency is Polish zloty eg. USDPLN=x shows how much cost is U.S. dollar (in Polish zloty), EURPLN=x; CHFPLN=X),

- news - I can add my prefers RSS chanels,

I do not need to install other apps (like: Stocks, RSS reader, Weather).
[Windows Phone 7 General] frontieruk:
The cities were always in the HTC hub and have always been listed in the HTC weather app on all HTC's OS platforms so that's not a new feature :rolleyes: it takes about 30 secs to delete the extra's.

It looks to my like they've taken the widget animations from their Android devices to replace the original on load animations, going deep into weather shows the old ones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drocan2:
I prefer the new one except the wheather animations were much, much better on the old one!:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] returned4good:
I never said it was new. But the old one didn't have them taking up most of the home screen. You could swipe up or down if you wanted to see them. And yes, you can delete them. What does it leave you with? A whole lot of empty space. I'm quite familiar with both versions. I still don't like the new one.

[HTC Sensation] Alganon:
Hey guys,

I switched from my HD2 to a Sensation, now running Energy ROM with latest bricked beta kernel and I am very pleased with it.

I want to controll the cpu by writting my own init.d script, like I did eith my hd2, but as the sensation has 2 cores I'm not quite sure what to do.

What I got so far is this:

echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 1188000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo smartassV2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

now I have 2 quesions:

1.) Do I need to do the same for cpu1? like this:

echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 1188000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo smartassV2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 1188000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo smartassV2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor

2.) I found this in bricked kernel thread:

what exactly does cpu1/online =1 do? can't I just set clocks and governor for cpu1 like in my code aboth or shold my script look like this:

echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 1188000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo smartassV2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 1188000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo smartassV2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

thanks for your help in advance!
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
There has been much discussion about the aSMP architecture and the fact that CPU1 will try to be off line (0) if possible and wake up when needed (1). I know someone played with:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

followed by a (or similar chmod):

chmod 400 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

The latter was to try to stop the system switching it off again. TBH I don't know where that technique ended up.

Most folks just use O/C Daemon, FauxClock, SetCPU.... or even the one built into CM7.

You'd be better off asking in the Bricked or Energy forums, I'm sure folks there have tried and/or implmented something similar.
[HTC Sensation] Alganon:
thx for the answer,

I've already postetd a link to this thread in bricked thread, but I didn't want to spam this thread with discussing something that's not kernel or rom related.

i'm fine with cpu1 being oflline when not needed. In fact I like the idea of conserving energy that way.

the quesions is, what happens when cpu1 kicks in? what scalings an governor does it use? the way I see it, the apps you mentioned, can only handle cpu0. and if cpu1 automagically uses the same settings as cpu0 I'm fine with that. But I wanted to make sure of it, so I thought the easiest way of knowing how this stuff is handled, is by writing the app/script that handles cpu myself...
