a bargain for less than 10usd or less than 600inr. philips she3590, belive me.. u gonna hate this headset,after u blow out ur eardrums.. what about a 10'boss subwoofer+10" jbl woofer+a philips midrange + a sony tweeter combined in a box ..and fitted on either side of ur head... this is the same shi##.

i own 12 headsets.. including sennheiser, sony,jbl wood,sonyericsson,panasonic,nokia,and htc beats edition , well.. all are midranges.. costing less than 5000INR, now u should be thinking that why this guy went for a 600INR philips.. the reason is.. under 5000.. the only competition it get is from JVC HAFX1X Xtreme Xplosives and some of its siblings like 3580,35xx,8xxx etc. but in its price range, nothing on earth matches to its overall sound perfomance( of course she3590 have its siblings in 35xx series,which have mic too, and all are under 1000INR, and all contains same drivers, so they all sound same or bout 98% same.)

so, if u want to see ur friend who own some sony xbh, or sennheiser cx, or beats, or anything which cost him $100 or less cry.. , buy one of these, plug into his ears, and watch him cry..:victory::cyclops:

I think the only functions working are Play/Stop and Call/Stop Call. Though the design of the button is pretty cool and awkward at the same time. You won't be using it at all for switching songs or change volume without having to hold the earphone which has the button mounted on it. But calling somebody, or making play/Stop on the go is discret and natural, and comfortable.

Everything depends on what you want to do.

Bower & Wilkins and Denon C300 series are nothing comparable. You won't get the same experience. There are very few earphones that compare to the C300 range actually. You're not listening to earphones, you're walking around with a private dimension surrounding you with music (either instruments and singers or a DJ or anything about what you play), and in this dimension lays a subwoofer made to turn your private room into a party room. It doesn't bleed in any way, but it is damn enjoyable.

Durability might also change a lot, since the Denons are very lightweight and well built. I don't see them dying on me anytime soon.

I recommend you to look at the last Senheiser IM50 & IM70 lines too. Though if you want something different, with less bass but even better details clarity and naturality, go for Denon C400 Music Maniac line. You will also like the other line of Senheiser (don't recall the names).

JVC FX1X are cool too, in fact those are the rare earphones that I would try to compare with my Denon C301. Of course they don't match, but the fact that a 15$ pair of phones can compare to a 300$ pair of phones is enough for you to imagine how JVC has hit the sweet spot. You just need to burn them for 150hours to reveal them fully.

Dude those suggestions are costly.. Do u think that these are cute for a phone with no dedicated dac amp chip?? Ofcourse its worth when u have a pair of headphone amp made of tubes. Or atleast htc one phone. Or even a sony android walkman. Which have smaster digital amp. I suggested big bang for peanut's cost. I adore jvc x1x, but they are like solar eclipse, cant get one, most of the online stores say out of stock!!!

Also there is a matter of comfort too, big inears make uncomfortable for prolonged use, tiny less weighted, smooth curved ones are better.

I think like this, dont go for high end ones if ur source of audio ( here - the phone) is not that good, also dont go for scifi type 3-4 driver types bulky costly ones, if u intend to use the rough,or in travel, they are really intended for studio qualities and not worthy unless u own chunky flaac files.

The worst thing about carring headphones- cable damages,loss of earbuds, etc.. Unless u have a carry case, but who wil carry a case, if u can put that in pocket, earbuds are for pockets, i think u get the point.

To sum up i opt for decent pair,which i can carry arround,and afford to loose or damage.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] showlyshah:
@ vanarian. You are right buddy.. Audio clarity demands 85% analog circuits and devices and only the rest is digital. I am an electronics hobbiest for about 15 yrs, and i am an electrical engineer. I have had time with analog amps and circuits a lot. And now in the digital era, i dont see any thing quite pleasant as my old cassette walkman. Now we punch up every thing, but then we lack its natural feel. I love analogs and old electronics.. I have built several amps for myself and others. I always opt for transistors or mosfet than ics( for ic, i choose gainclone ckts), i am much like a purist.

Now i am building a dac based portable audio amp for phones and usb host enabled devices. A dac + amp setup, powerd from usb port, smaller than a pendrive, when i finish, i will post those in hardware hacking thread here on xda.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Vanarian:
I look forward to it, this will definitely be a wonderful setup.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] showlyshah:
If u have an experience in electronics. I will give u a guide:-

1) buy a usb soundcard, there are several with choice of volume control, audio in/out, 2 to 7.1 channel audio o/p etc. I simply went for a normal one with 2 channel audio in/out with no volume control. And it works with xperia z,and z1, but not with htc one 4.2, but no matter, its just a driver problem, and can be fixed if we can manage to put the geniric usb dac driver into the rom. ( or may be its fixed on latest 4.4.2) infact most of the latest devices support it.

2) open the usb soundcard, and trace down the audio out channel circuit, there will be three wire connection, R,L,G.

3) now find a simple audio amp circuit, or opamp circuit, which can be used as a headphone amp,google search it, head-fi forms and other forums have lot of links and references. The thing is the ckt must be capable to operate in <= 5v and should not draw currents more than 100-200 ma at peak.

4) now connect the audio input to audio o/p of dac chip of usb soundcard. And use the same 5v power source from usb to power the amp ckt. Then connect the o/p of the amp ckt to a 3.5 mm headphone socket.

5) done. Now u have a digital amp that can be plugged directly to ur phone's usb host port, and can drive some beefy headsets.. Costing u less than 5 $. If u can manage to assemble the whole thing into an old casing of something like pendrive or netsetter, it looks like some professional device too..

Nb:- Dont use amp ckts that produce more than 1w, or u will burn ur headset. And dont draw lot of current, probably less than 300 ma from ur phones usb, or u will burn the usb chip of phone.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] Vanarian:
Thank you for the steps! I'll try to do one, I need also to build a quick waves measurement kit. I'm trying to mod a pair of headphones with a whole new design (orthodynamics kind!) and if my assumptions are correct, there will be two consequences for the drivers : the sound will get a HUGE leap in term of quality, but the drivers will also become a lot more hungry in power. I can't tell yet, it is a real mess in my head.

So if by any means the cans become more hungry than these are already, having this will help me test them further.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] showlyshah:
Choose some low impedence drivers.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] espe0:
not so low ...I have 12ohm kef m200 and I can say not every device can handle that low impedance (z1 can perfectly) ...best for mobile are ~32ohm which are efficient a lot (eg 120 db)
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] LLars_PL:
i am using Soundmagics e10- very low costs - for me enough quality for a smartfone.

It has enough hearable bass. They are loud. They are small fit good and smart. If i loose them, it was not expensive.

It is truth about the audio source what has been said here so i will stay with these.

it is a smartfone not a portable studio so any soundcards (which would make it probably much nicer) are (too) big and probably (too) battery hungry devices.

If i want everything perfect i`m rushing home and listen to music on hifi setups with soundcards subwoofers and all these stuff

instead of having troubles getting my phone in my pocket on a train because of a soundcard connected :D

Re-posting to correct forum:

First of all my initial problem was solved after much research. My Coby Kyros MID1125 was stuck on the fastboot menu and my computer wouldn't recognize it. I downloaded a recovery img file and quickimg and put it in the image folder, my pc finally recognized my tablet and said "connected". Great, so I clicked partitioned to flash and there were two button options "boot" or "flash" along with a selection of 1. BOOT 2. SYSTEM 3. USER DATA and 4. CACHE. ....I left it on the boot selection and clicked the "boot" and it came up to the clockwork recovery. I wasn't sure which option to push so I pushed "wipe factory date/ reset". It reset itself but again it won't load to home screen. The furthest it will boot is the Android logo. I have a recovery image installed on sdcard in sd slot and my tablet was rooted. I also have abd tools installed but was unable to access my tablet. Any ideas on where to go when it boots into clockwork recovery? I'll need a step by step....TIA!!!

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] avatarx1:
I have a T-mobile LG Optimus L9 that is about 14 months old and it went dead yesterday. I plugged the USB cable to the phone to my phone last night to recharge it before I went to sleep and noticed that the screen didn't turn on. I didn't think much of it and went to sleep.

This morning I tried to turn it on by pressing the power button and nothing works. I tried my wife's full battery (she has the same phone) and it didn't work either.

I connected my phone to my PC with a USB cable and my PC did nothing when it was connected...

I took the battery out for 2 hours and tried again didn't work... tried hard reset by pressing volume down+home+power button for 10 seconds... didn't work.

I don't know why I'm having this problem... I didn't drop the phone or anything like that yesterday. It just suddenly went dead and it's out of the 1 yr warranty period.

Anyone have any idea? and how much would it cost to fix it?

Think you actually need the .net compact framework 2.0

Try here

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...6b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&DisplayLang=en

I found this would not install directly for some unknown reason from the oprovided exe file.

However, you can locate the extracted cab file in:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\CompactFramework\v2.0\WindowsCE\wce500\armv4i

and the file is labelled

NETCFv2.wce5.armv4i.cab.

Copy this file onto your SD card and then install using the program manager.

This installed fine using this method.

Team, I was really enjoying my cm10.2 and i was running out of space.. like 5gb total, maybe 1gb used per storage screen in settings and it says 1gb free.. on top of that it says im running out of space.. i did notice it is showing my sd card music and pictures being listed in the internal memory when in fact its on my sd card.. This seems to be chewing up 3gb+ i need for apps etc..

So I flashed cm11 m3, which i actually really like so far.. but its suffering from the same issue.. can someone help me repair this? googling it has not helped any.. ( ps i did factory wipe before flashing cm11 in recovery)

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Magamo:
Check your application data usage in settings|apps, also check to see if you have any CWM made backups. That's often stored outside of the directory trees that android itself normally looks at (/data/media/clockworkmod) Also if it's saying your music and such is on your internal storage than it probably is. Check using a file manager, and manually move that stuff to your SD card.

Glad you're enjoying it mate.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] PlutoDelic:
I have to say though Freaktab has a bit more freedom and tolerance level, you can get smashed up here in XDA for giving an opinion :P.

The sticks are going to be very Mainstream pretty soon, the Chinese manufacturers need standardize a bit and be more consistent and open. They fear being copied and yet all they do is copy around.

The overall "Android Stick Computers" may need a Freaktab moderator, that way no rights would be disturbed and a proper list of roms for devices would make it even in a single thread.
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] flumpster:
I've never been afraid to give my opinion ;)

As for the copying going on I don't even take much notice of it. You have companies like Minix who are purposely going against GPL 2 and releasing custom versions of XBMC locked to their devices and wont supply the source code. They wouldn't get away with that on XDA for a second. The only thing I can do is inform people of their tactics and advise them against supporting them.

Problem on EVOLVEO Smart TV box Q4

Hi!

Yesterday evening i installed on my box the Beyond XBMC Beta 3.3.

On first run it seems all normaly. But if the startup process was finished and the menu appearing if i choose something the app goes black and nothing..

I waited 5 min and after i go back to home screen. try start again but only black screen.

After reboot i click on app icon it comes a black screen and immadietly close.

I can't start. Only after if i delete the user data and cache for application is possible to start again.

I try'd to "Enable Minimum Specifications Settings". One time i turned successfully this option, but after go back to menu frozen again...

Any idea?

Thanks:Peter
[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] flumpster:
I have absolutely no idea why it would do this for you. I have installed this on over 10 different bits of hardware and it worked on every one for me (except the amlogic playback but I knew that wouldn't work). There are loads of posts over on freaktab also and no one has brought up anything similar. The first install does take a long time and you have to wait it out but after that it should launch quick.

Lets try and find out what is different for you. What machine is it? What OS is it running? What chipset is it?

Hi people, I discovered this version a short time ago, and I've to say it's the best I had trying ever. I strongly recommend to all of you to try it.

But only have a doubt, I can't do the "extrafanart thing" work, I mean, while I am selecting a chapter in a TV show, show a slideshow of different fanarts... I look for in all the settings and not find how it works. Can anybody help me? I hope you can understand me... My English level is awful ;).

Evening all first off thanks to the Dev for a great version of xbmc. I am running this on my CS968 quad core and it's brill. As usual I have a couple of questions and will be reading the 18 pages on here to see if some tweaks can help? Ok my 2 questions are: 1, when in the audio settings I cannot select the later two or three sound output settings I think there are dts and true hd? I have my tv box connected via hdmi and optical to a new gen Onkyo av receiver capable of playing almost anything. 2, when playing 720p or above I have lag on scenes of high action or movement?

If anyone can help me on those two questions that would be appreciated whilst I have a read through the pages so far

Finally thanks again to all that have contributed to this version it is the best I have ever used so congratulations where it's due!

initial caching takes too long

I have an issue with caching when streaming from serviio (IPTV http stream via serviio). When I pick a channel, it shows the first frame, then starts buffering, showing "buffering... 0%", but does not start playing video until the cache is full. Afterwards everything is OK, but this first buffering takes ages. I tried decreasing buffer size (to 10MB) in advancedsettings.xml - it partially helped, but still takes quite some time. Even if set very small buffer size (100kB), it takes ~10 sec to go from channel list to the video playback. On vanilla XBMC everything works flawlessly, without any lag (except hardware acc. :( ). Is there any chance to achieve this in Beyond XBMC?

Thanks for your suggestions!

P.S. Also removed "alwaysforcebuffer" - no help.
