and for a program to use midi files ?

*raises an eyebrow and smiles at him meekly*

I did try a search for "midi ringtone" AND "midi 2003" to see if I could find the solution but all I got was ... how do I do this... how do I do that... why wont 2003 play midi ring tones.. so I added my question to the bottom of one of those... maybe the forum should have a read only section called F.A.Q ???

btw... the main reason I want to use midi is for what bedammit was saying...

1. mp3s would be god for ringtones... but someone (IE microshaft) wont support the standard (Shocker)

2. midi files are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy smaller than mp3 or wav and so I can fit far more dodgy tones than any current nokia brick.

3. midi files are fantastic for notational purposes outside an XDA... also with a decent set of sound banks (that o/b manufacturers cant include because of cost) you get extremely realistic quality... Sblive plat is what I use the now but if you get a turtle beach or something more than an off the shelf quazi soundcard then you will *NOT* be able to tell the difference. Unfortuantly like many things in life, these superb boards are being priced out of the market because people don't realise they only get what they pay for !.

4. wav is pish as far as signal to noise ratio goes.... so much of those many mbs is just noise and nothing more... you wanna pay $500 for that?

5.WHY THE HELL would anyone pay $500 for a phone that has the pishest speaker on earth integrated in the first place? I dont know... I did...you did... we ALL did... headphones are fine.... but the speaker sucks '.'

6 WHY THE HELL pay $500 for a phone your going to fill the fast flash memory up with wma/wav ringtones (remember how slow it is reading from SD) most multiple ringtone progs dont work correctly unless all tones are in flash. Maybe that's why MS 'forgot' to put it into 2002PE ?

7. talk about quality and then mention WMA ? that's an oxymoron if I ever heard one LOL

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Nossie:
ahhhhh Greg, yir a hero :P

6 instruments eh? bleh....

must be too expensive also to add real midi playback on your $500 phone lol...

god you can emulate an AWE32/64 on a PC these days yet Microsoft dont know how to store more than 6 voices on a $500 phone. What value for money :roll: you can buy a pci soundcard with 128 voices for £20...

that other link to www.acoustica.com seems interesting... I'll give that a go when I have time

although if I was doing it that way I'd be as well using WMP9 on 2k3EE.

Go for wma if you have to guys coz MS really dont have a clue what midi is.

cheers, again Greg

The dispensing of Crack on Xda-developers

Attn:

It appears that crack is being dispensed on XDX-DEvelopers.com.

Reports have been issued that an un-named source from Miami has stated that MP3s are better sounding than WMAs.

As an audiophile and a music producer.. I can tell you that this is a difficult question to answer without defining your basis for comparison. However...

To solve this now...

Most MP3s are encoded with an older compression codec than WMA 9s WMA codec (assumming that is your comparison for WMA if it isnt... well all bets are off previous versions of WMA are not as high in quality as many mp3s). Low bitrate MP3s (as in mp3s below 128kbs) are better in quality in many circumstances, but most people dont encode or download low bitrate for fidelity reasons.

Furthermore... your choice of player has a role in all the confusion. So make sure you ARENT using an older player/ decoder.

So..

Go out get yourself some good speakers AND headphones and test it yourself.

Make sure you have a NEW MP3 encoding codec from a reputable encoder.

Like hmmm LAME running on say.... CDex.

Next go get a good mp3 player (Sorry folks... I cant say Windows Media player is going to play fairly EVER, as they had OS's to sell.

Try Winamp.

http://ekei.com/audio/

http://www.hardwarecentral.com/hardwarecentral/reviews/2606/7/

http://www.mp3-tech.org/tests/wma9/

Now.

Just say no to drugs and WMAs

read about MP3s

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Nossie:
fair enough... mp3 support out the box with Microsoft is pants... but then again the max is 96kbs is it not? wonder why... no anti competitive practices o fcourse... well why would that be possible ? you can pay MS an extra $20 and get 128kbs+

and yeah there are soooooooooooooooooooooo many better alternative players.. I like winamp personaly :)

so what you going to do ? sue XDA developers for providing a medium for users to copy/crack files on? I doubt that... its already been tried and the VCR companies won that one.

I dont see the XDA developers condoning piracy....

and anyways, newsgroups are so much better for that sorta thing *coff*

Re: The dispensing of Crack on Xda-developers

hehehe, you guys are funny.

Nossie, I think he is reffering to the crack that you smoke, not the crack that you hack!

Ok, dudes, cool, to each its own, but we are talking about the tiny little speaker of the Xda!. I knew that the midis file were only 6 instruments, you guys want phone that can emulate AWE32/64????

NAME ONE PHONE that has that feature!.

You guys are making comparison between MP3, and WMA, yeah, in a regular, HI-FI speaker they might be a difference, but... ARE you planning to attach one to the itsy-bitsy XDA, just to hear a "HI-FI" ringtone???.

the only reason to choose WMA over MP3 or WAV, is for the size, which for a regular user sounds around the same each, but the WMA is smaller size.

another feature that the midi doesn't have is voices, and other real sounds, that only a WAV/MP3/WMA can make

Yeah, the midis are smaller, but how many midis are you planning to have? I have like 10 ringtones, and that's more than enough for me.

Of course, to each its own, if you like it.....go for it

anyways are guys planning to give a concert everytime the phone rings??? :P :P

"And now with WM2003 is even better, since supports WMA, hence better quality. "

WMA better quality then wav hhhmmmm

that would be like saying that jpg looks better then uncompressed TIF's

:P

[/quote]
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Yorch:
better quality compared to WAV....and smaller size
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Rudegar:
"better quality compared to WAV"

how would it be better quality then wav when wav is just raw sample data with a header telling if it's stereo, samplerate and number of bits ?

unless WMA support a higher bit resolution or samplerate

then it will be just another lossgiving noreflective transformation of sampled data like mp3 and ....
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Yorch:
SIZE DARN IT, SIZE!

ok, tell me what you rather have, a 1MB ringtone in a WAV or a 100K Ringtone in a WMA

(now discuss with me that that is not the right number for the conversion)

for the Xda speaker phone, the ringtone would sound pretty much the same, the speaker of the XDA is a crappy speaker, a regular listener would not make a difference for it.

I guess I'm either deaf, or I am the only that has a crappy speaker on the phone, and your XDA phones came with HI-FI YAMAHA Surround sound speakers,and 10GB memory and you guys actually can tell the difference of the WAV/MP3/WMA on the phone.

In short, WMA is the best solution for saving ringtones on THE PHONE, is good enough quality and is reasonably small.

Remember guys, this is a forum for the XDA, not for the PC, so: there is no Winamp, no HI-FI Speakers, no lots of memory, no AWE32/64.

The comparison between the TIFF and JPG are not good, if you had to use your digital pictures and watch it ONLY in your camera (as the ringtone that you listen to it ONLY in the phone), you could use JPG anyways, and very little resolution, since the size of the little screen wouldn't matter to the eyes, (now you can dispute that you have not 20/20, but bionic vision, and that you see beyond human). If you were to make a ringtone, to use it in the PC, or some other hi-fi equipment, then yeah, all you guys comparisons will have avail, but again, the XDA speaker is not the best quality.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] GregP74:
I have to agree with Yorch on this one. If I was planning on listening to a concert each time the phone rang, I might be a little more worried about the ring tone capabilities. But face it, for the quality of sound you're going to get out of that little speaker, wma or wav is just fine.

Sure, they could go and add another circuit to give it the same midi capabilities of a pc, but it would just add to the cost, and quite frankly, how often would we use it?

I've got a nice little ~ 10 second wma of some trumpet music as my ringer. It's about 200k I think. Works fine, I can hear it, doesn't sound bad. And it always impresses people when an orchestra starts playing in my pocket.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Rudegar:
i never said that i rather wanted wav or even mp3 for that matter

i just responded to the guy who said that 2003's wma support would ofter better sound quality

as a ring tone i would even go to

mono 11Khz 8bit just because i could not tell the difference

when it's on such a small speaker
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Yorch:
I would like to try it, and post it in my website if you don't mind (credited to you), please send it to skins@yorch.net

Ok, not like that either, don't have to exagerate, a nice and small WMA would do fine 8)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Nossie:
my point on the speaker had little to do with ringtones... but more for the media aspect of it in general....

I have a nice little 256mb SD card that I load up with mp3s on my way out... listening through the headphones is fantastic... but the speaker just doesn?t make up for it... even playing games its crap.

So. ringtones... yeah who cares... but its certainly not up to scratch when it comes down to a portable music player ... so much potential too :cry:

As far as ringtones go, I'd prefer mp3... and I'm not asking for an AWE32 !!! all I'm wanting is more than 6 pathetic instruments.... no wonder your midi files sound pants on it when its having to substitute the proper bank for the crap on the xda... that?s like taking the wheels off a Ferrari and fitting them to a lada.

I think your smoking more than crack Yorch if you think I was wanting an AWE 64.... but you have to admit they have been around for a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time and it wasnt so long ago that 200mhz pcs were sitting on your desktop and not in your pocket.

name one soundcard out today with 6 or less midi instruments? :twisted:

I was being facetious yorch, you may like to look it up... are you American per chance? LOL :D

I'd suggest Oxford... but I see they are putting in 'egosufer' as a word in the dictionary this year... maybe not then

yeah I do wear a kilt, take it you want a look to see if I'm a true Scot?

...

naw, think I've worn one once (school prom).... drafty and you gottta watch those damn gurlies hands !

I guess I'm just miffed that some parts of mobile technology has evolved more dramatically than others... I was comparing the pocketPC to a pc of say 5 - 7 years ago.. the benifit of the doubt being:

16 bit display (XDA 2)

P133 - P200

128mb RAM

SB16 AWE 32/64

I guess you could relate the graphics capability to the very bottom end of that time...

hardisk, mmmm that one I can understand being a problem.

Some of the above tallys up really well.... others... mmmm

You may not believe this but I do love my xda lol.... so dont get me wrong there, but I'd be rather miffed and a little insane to have paid £500 for a 32mb one a year ago..

what kind of performace does the older generation pentiums have over the arm/xscale cpus of today? Thats something I'm wondering... intel tout 206mhz but at the end of day mhz doesnt matter anymore.

anyways, yeah no offence intended ...

I'm just easily amused.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] satven21:
Dear All,

Its been quiet some time trying to do enough experiments with custom ROM, battery life apk and all that can tweak CPU....seems a solution is getting into place. My device started giving a decent battery life, of 3% drop for an idle usage time of 8 hrs. Things done as below:

1. Root - Yes required

2. Good Custom ROM - using currently Ultimate ROM - thanks to the developer, its a great ROM

3. Install Greenify - this is one apk you will love unlike other task killing apk, hibernation is better

4. Install CPU Spy - Come with default with this ROM

5. Juice defender - just to ensure be sure all things are controlled.

Thats it, your device is ready to rock. I charged to 75% battery before sleeping, disabled of course Wifi and other data and removed all unnecessary task killers, battery managers etc. Gave a 3% dip in battery after 8 hrs. Post that a charge of again to 75% with a normal usage of calls( around 10 calls average talk time of 2 minutes), Wifi for reading mails and still the battery 15% after using for 5 hrs !!!. Earlier this used to tank in 3 hrs, so i believe a decent battery time.

Hope it helps readers to address battery issue.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nigi73:
What's a difference if I will use 1% or 3% over night if in 1h of web browsing or gaming will loose 30%?

For heavy users benefits are negligible. Few mA on undervolting few on lowering brightness and black theme but still the screen is the hugest drain and rest is nothing if you do not have wake-locks. Most of the time my screen uses 60-70% with all connectivity enabled and no juice saving apps and no matter how many tweaks applied, we have to live with screen consuming a lot of juice even on minimum brightness. Liked a lot juice defender on hd2, now on note not much difference.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] satven21:
Galaxy Note GT N 7000

Thanks all for your feedback. Yes its true in any case we will have less than 3% drop if left idle, but i tried to check battery usage, "Screen usage" is high if used for a full time, earlier it was "Android" using more. Anyways thanks all for you information. AS Nigi mentioned we just have to live with it - No matter what we do, if for a day it works with 15% battery remaining it would be just sufficient.

Any lo!!!! Hear S4 is on the move - With octacore and DDR3 RAM. May be its going to be a gamechanger in saving battery !!!!

Why are people so excited by a little battery drain during the night while wi-fi and data are shut down?

My matter is not having a long life battery on a phone I don't use and I find the night is the best moment to have my phone plugged and to let all applications updates and massive data exchanges be done.

My matter is to have the best battery life during the day when I'm on the my way and use the phone, browse, take pictures and films, send and read sms and mails, use GPS, read books and magazines, watch movies or listen to music.

I want both.

wakelocks = most common issue in standby battery life. Almost everyone encounters them and once they know how to analyze that (ahalfords sticky q&a section) that can be minimized

When awake, tons of other stuff n tweaks.

Both should not enhibit daily functioning. The moment I dont have the feeling, oh I need to not use the phone because I will have no juice is or I need to charge it/swap batteries is the moment I dream for. Such pda's dont exist yet. Not without changing ridiculously behaviour/usage and/or charging. Devices arent there yet. Soon they will.

However, its pretty good now with new battery and changing. I have had far worse lol.
