Dude, you have no idea what HTCDev is, right?

What you have put up, is a screenshot of the Revolutionary tool... can only be used for the older hboots, not the newer one. HTCDev is a website by HTC which allows unlocking of the newer bootloader as well.

So you've gone through a lot of exercise for nothing... :p:p:p

Your "effort" to help is appreciable my friend. But by doing so, you're just encouraging this kind of undesirable behavior on the Forum.

What's the point of rules and regulations on a forum, if some members decide to flaunt them brazenly? And it gets worse if others join in and answer the thread anyway. What's the point of relocating the thread later? This will just set precedent for others to repeat the same thing over and over again, and desecrate the DEV forum, because they get what they want anyway... while well-meaning members who complain about "wrong thread" are dissed away by people like you for being less willing to help.

Come to think of it, the "wrong thread" posts, in reply to inappropriate threads, are actually more helpful in the long run, than the equally misguided "helpful" answers by like-minded myopic members.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
You're obviously never going to let this go. I can see now, why it is so important for you to win this argument. So i'll let you satiate your ego and have the last word.

[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
To illustrate the point about no moderation, I flagged the post to be moved when I made #4 (yesterday night). Which I've done again today at #8 when I mentioned the Report button in an attempt to educate others - however the thread still exists..

Effectively the DS forum is self moderated with external moderation provided when and if needed (via use of the report button) with some delay.

While we were all Noobs at the start, even though it may be nice to provide answers to all questions - when they posted in the wrong place - it doesn't set the right example.

I created the thread [DEV][14 OCT 11] DEV naming convention (plus more) READ BEFORE CREATING THREAD! which is a sticky within this section, which explains all about new threads and the DEV section just for this reason.

Now lets all take ten.....breath, I'm having a cup of Tea.

See, both of you apologized and didn't stretch this silly fight any further. It's better when you do the mature thing and let the small stuff go.

While my View seems to be able to handle most video formats using e.g. MX Video player, they all seem to use a software-based decoder.

A hardware-assisted codec would probably be easier on the battery and allow for longer playtimes.

So I've upgraded to CM9(cm9-droid3-20120216-2345) which went fine.. However I have no service, no market, and for some reason the USB/Portal doesn't work the same with CM9.. So I can't flash my phone, and when I try to use backup/recovery to Clockwork Recovery through safestrap I am getting "Couldn't open directory. No files found."

I know the files are there, I can see them when I go to 'Install zip from sdcard'.. At this point I just want to get back to SuperCharged_V_5 and I have been beating my head all morning over this..

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
It does not work for our phone yet. lfaber06 and I have been working on it and CM7 for SEVERAL months now. The issue with CM9 is finding a radio for our phone that works with ICS (which is what CM9 is based off of). Go take a look at the post in the development section on it.

For those that would like to take a look at flashing it, you MUST use safestrap, which is having issues right now, and is very low priority since we have CWM through bootstrap and the CWM on boot hack.

Here is where the CM9 post is located, but I advise that you read the WHOLE thread, and if you would like to help you can start looking for a working radio that is similar to ours that is already on ICS.

The port does not work period. It was only posted for our dev team to help get it working. It is not going be working anytime soon.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] fjuniper:
I have some high quality video (BBC Frozen Planet - "H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1) 1280 x 720" according to VLC Codec Details) that really stutters with the standard video app. I tried DICE Player and it was no better. I tried MX Video Player and I finally seem to be getting somewhere - but I am puzzled.

MX Video Player has a choice of decoding modes at the touch of a button:

H/W Decoder

S/W Decoder

S/W Decoder (fast mode)

H/W mode is still stuttering, but the other two seem to work perfectly. (Wow - I love this screen!!)

So why doesn't H/W mode work?

And does anyone know which of the other two is the best (by which I probably mean uses least battery)?

Will S/W modes use more power than H/W?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] teiglin:
1. I can't give you any details about why the HW decoder would have issues without the video in question, but I assume it has some unusual settings in the encoding that confuse or bog down your decoding hardware. It's not something that comes up a lot, honestly--usually hardware decoding either works fine or fails outright, in which case you can fall back to software decoding.

2. I honestly don't know exactly the difference between fast and normal software decoding in MX. I assume the "fast" flavor is optimized for speed at the cost of quality, but I haven't been able to discern any differences between the two modes.

3. Yes, SW decoding uses massively more power than HW. The tab has fixed-function video decoding units that use relatively little power for the codecs it supports, while the CPU can sit idle. In software mode, the CPU is doing the decoding, so you're going to be taxing it heavily, which is a very large power drain. I almost never play software video on mobile devices, but I'd expect your battery life to be about half as good with software decoding compared to hardware.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] bdroc:
stuttering has to do with bitrate...especially since the format your file is is what I rip to and I've had no problems...even in software...I've found that you lose no quality with a bitrate of around 6k for 720p...I haven't tried higher because you get close to the 4gb FAT32 limit with a full length film

Have you tried the file on your pc? And if your bitrate is too high...use format factory to bring it down
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] fjuniper:
Thank you for your detailed answers teiglin and bdroc.

@teiglin (3) Confirmed what I thought about H/W versus S/W.

@bdroc The attached image from VLC suggests that the bit rate is around 400 kb/s, which seem an awful lot less than the 5k you mention, so I am not sure how low I should go if I re-encode in Format Factory. I am trying the Mobile Devices preset -> HD AVC(H264) 1280x720 which uses 1500KB/s. 1% complete so far...

The file came direct from the BBC btw, using get_iPlayer. It plays perfectly on a laptop. With the window sized to 7.7 inches like the tablet, the tablet looks so much better! (ThinkPad T400).

I like this program to look at video info

http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] fjuniper:
Thanks for that. So my original files was:

Overall bit rate : 2 467 Kbps

Bit rate : 2 367 Kbps

Maximum bit rate : 3 500 Kbps

And the same file after conversion in FormatFactory using the preset mentioned below is:

Overall bit rate : 1 617 Kbps

Bit rate : 1 489 Kbps

The second file seems to play perfectly well in MX Video Player in H/W Decoder mode, so that is good, though it is a shame to have to convert what seem to be perfectly good files to be able to use them on the Tab... It took 1hr 47mins to convert the 58 minute file!

I`m from Serbia, I made a backup with nandroid on my LG P990 , after that i`ve updated using kdz to v20m version. As i had some problems i flashed back the v20l i had via clockworkmod. Now i have unrooted my phone, connected to pc, fired up the updater, and it says that i have the latest v20m, duobble checked the phone, it reports v20l. How could i force the updater to perform the update to v20m ?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
You need to flash an older baseband.

Flashed 1035.21_20110614 baseband. Now the phone reports LGE version v20l, but the LGMobile Support Tool is reporting Version V10C, and says that the cell phone is the latest version already, and that i dont need to update.

Is this means, that for my phone the latest update is V20L ?

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
I'm on V20g here in the UK so I would of thought that if your phone say V20L you will have the most upto date rom.

[LG Optimus 2x] toxie87:
Most probably i will have to wait for an update. Tried to flash the v20q.kdz tried both methods, with and without http server. It is always asking for internet connection... Now flashed another baseband, updater reports v10d phone reports 1035.21_20110725 iirc this baseband version is in v20l. I desperately want to solve the GPS lock problem, but maybe i still have to wait. Unless i try to flash the V20M via clockwork, i`ve done before, but i dont remember is it working there.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] simu_lacrum:
I've got a weird problem. I successfully rooted my new HTC Flyer and installed CWM. When I rooted my new device I only had a very small sd card at hand which I replaced a few days later by a fast 32 GB sd card.

After the replacement I reinstalled CWM 4.0.1.4 but every time I try to do a nandroid backup nothing seems to happen. A progress bar is displayed but there doesn't seem to be any progress.

This is what CWM tells me:

Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4

SD Card space free: 25496MB

Backing up boot image...

Backing up recovery image...

Backing up system...

Backing up data...

No /sdcard/.android_secure found. Skipping backup of applications on external storage.

Backing up cache...

No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext.

Generating md5 sum...

Backup complete! (obviously not!)

Using file expert I can see .android_secure in /sdcard (probably internal "sd card") but not in sdcard2 (probably my 32 Gb sd card). In /sdcard and /sdcard2 there's adirectory clockworkmod. The first one only contains a directory called download and a file .settings. The latter one contains a directory backup and under it directories for each backup attempt.

The question is: Can I trust these backups in case something is going wrong and I need to do a restore? Given the above error message I doubt that. So my next question is: What can I do to fix the problem?

Thanks in advance.
