I'm after (read-only) 40+gb of storage for the universal, mainly as a WMA/MP3 player in the car and at work. How about this:

Cheap pentium-class laptop from ebay, wifi access point and Personal Web Server or IIS? Would the streaming audio application just work with files hosted (ie put in shared directories) on the laptop or would I need something a little more clever?

Any thoughts on the matter?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Pyrojester:
WL-HDD

A MUCH cheaper option is a WL-HDD with an external PSP battery (or a car adaptor for in-car storage). Files are accessable with resco file explorer easily or from windows file explorer with a little more difficulty. There is also a huge WL-HDD community with rom updates and so forth. Using it myself with great results, battery life is good for 4 hours streaming, but a bigger 5v 1Amp+ battery could be purchased. The battery I recommend is good as it comes with the USB-Barrel connector you need to power the drive.

(or ebay it but less reliable)

Battery I use, others could work.

Interesting... Wireless Snap server...

Not too expensive either!!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
Nice piece of kit. The only thing, though, how will this cope with streaming? I mean, won't this just present files to download completely before playing? And I guess I wouldn't be able to use playlists or a next track/next album type function in media player :(

Or is there any way to mount the partition as a drive (like a storage card) on the Universal?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
Just to add, one of the MP3 files I have is 10gb (don't ask) so it really would need to be streamed.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] skywriter:
i did exactly this at home with my first iPAQ so i could lie down and listen to any music i had on my network at home. back then 64mb flash card didn't store much music. early versions of WM needed network playlists to get the files, i haven't tried it on later version as local storage of 4gB is enough... finally.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
If 4gb was enough I'd be happy, but another 200 CDs arrived yesterday and I won't get many of those on a single SD card
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] techtalkonline:
I just found this item which looks interesting, especially as it appears to be able to utilise 2.5" notebook HDD and USB Pen Drives!

http://www.qtds.com/products.asp?recnumber=855

Not a bad proce either, although you would obviously need to add in the cost of the HDD or Flash Drive.

Regards,

Colin.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Pyrojester:
The WL-HDD allows direct streaming, can act as a Wireless Access Point, and has a usb port so you can plug in USB storage and either make it network accessable or automatically copy the contents to the internal drive (which can be up to 100gb, IIRC). You can even plug in a webcam and set to take a photo when motion is detected, or at an interval. It can even email the photo to you!

Honestly, it is the best bit of kit I have, but you will need another power source or extended battery for the exec to handle the constant streaming for any length of time. I get about 4 hours out of it, same life as the WL-HDD :D.

This seems very similar to the WL-HDD, but the power consumption is 3A. This would be a challenge to run by battery. It also has no homebrew software/bios.

As I said earlier in this post, it automatically streams files unless you choose to copy them.Through Resco, the drive is mounted just like the storage card, under the "Network" heading. To access it you simply have to log onto the drive using Wi-fi, and map the network drive by tap-holding and choosing the option "map network drive" over the network icon in resco. I use Wisbar advanced desktop (which I also recommend) so I have an icon on my desktop that goes straight there. Listening to music off it is just like from a storage card.

This is interesting.

My point is, my daughter fried my ipod but i am thinking of using my "spare" M5000 as an alternative, i currently have a 1gig sdd in it but was thinking of using its wifi technology to aceess my music from the pc, is this possible with this wireless drive or is there a drive that the M5000 can hook up to and access my library.

One point i would like to mention though, my ipod was hooked up to my hifi unit via its dock (which basically is the headphone socket) when i use the same lead coming out of the headphone socket of the M5000 and into the aux port of the hifi the i have to crank the volume right up to hear anything. Is there something i am doing wrong hear, just thought it would be same output as the ipod??

Another Option...

I use this device : http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews_vosonic_xs_drive_super_vp6210.php (review)

I originally purchased it as a backup device for photos, as you can insert a memory card and copy its contents to the internal hard drive.

The 6210 uses laptop hard drives (any size) and it's easy to swap drives (it's supplied with a keyring screwdriver to open it up and detach drives).

It can also format your memory card.

Unlike most devices of this type, it can also write from the hard drive to your memory card, so just pop your SD card in and transfer any files you want to it, then pop your SD card back in your Universal.

Also, it has basic MP3 player functions, so I have it hooked up to my car stereo, using a standard 3.5" connector. No more listening to moronic radio jocks, bliss! Mine was supplied with a car (cigarette lighter socket) charger.

The device normally lasts about 3hr on a single charge and it has a sleep function, that switches off the screen and/or the hard drive if not being used, so it can last a fair bit.

It can also connect to a tv and play .avi or .mpeg-2 movies...

The company that makes these is bringing out a new version with an 8hr battery and a 3.6" screen, so I'm saving my pennies!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] southernint3l:
That is kind of pricey.I like the idea of being able to travel and change the options of what is stored on my SD card.Thank you.What does the amount transfer to in US dollars?

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Pyrojester:
I bought mine from a friend, but as I work for micro anvika I know they are reliable :D. As for shipping to america, i would recommend scanning ebay, or just googling it to purchase.

Best Mp3 player for streaming

By far the best mp3 player for both songs and audio books including streaming through wifi networks is Mortplayer. You'll love it. I imagine it will work perfectly with your wifi HD drive also. Big buttons for no stylus use. For net work drives to show up just map drive in built in file explorer first then Mortplayer picks it up. Mortplayer is free but i recommend donating as it is one of the best apps i have seen.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deezy_Le:
So I recently got myself an HTC One M8 Google Play Edition.

I tried to root it and unlocked the bootloader with ADB Commands.

Everything worked fine until I tried to install a custom firmware. It kept me in a bootloop and kept going back into TWRP Recovery.

I found out afterwards that my phone was still S ON.

For some reason, I was able to install Skydragon 3.0.1 custom rom for GPE and I finally got the phone working and usable again.

I thought that it was my chance to try and get S OFF with firewater.

Again, I tried doing so with ADB Command and I got the message that my device is patched by HTC, I am out of luck.

So now I'm stuck on Skydragon 3.0.1 rom. Not to say that it's a bad thing. The rom works GREAT!

But I want to revert back into stock rom and restart anew so I can maybe try and get S off from the beginning because SkyDragon has an OTA.

Apparently it's the OTA that is preventing me completely running firewater.

Is there any way to fix this? Can I still get S OFF from where I am or is there a way to go back to factory settings before all the rooting?

I haven't found any other roms that would install on my phone.

Please help!!!!! =(

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deezy_Le:
It says that I cannot run sunshine because of my kernel/rom combination. I need to flash a sense-based rom.

Problem is, when I read online, I saw that I cannot flash a sense-based rom onto an GPE because of the partition difference or something.

Thus why I wanted to get S-off :(

I'm on skydragon GPE v3.0.0 with SkyDragon V2.0.1 kernel by the way
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android The Greek:
Did you try a 4.4.2 ruu? It might be in the gpe conversion thread if not I can send you a Drop box link.

Yes go in Setting/Applications(select tab All) then find application called Camera(or just look for Camera icon).Tap on it and scroll down and find button that says Clear deafult setting(or something like that) and click on it, then click button that says clear cache
