I just posted a TCPMP player in this forum with all the plugins needed to play youtube and google video, search for that and youre good to go
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Or you can always use Kinoma Free play... I been using this for a while and it is promising so far.
[HTC Excalibur] joeskull:
Dude... skyfire is the one.... How come such a software is not a hit? It's almost perfect.... I'm curious about it. I'll try to search for it later, but so far... what a great browser! the best experience I ever had. I wanna say thank you all, for all suggestions posted here, but I'll keep with skyfire.
[HTC Excalibur] dxter:
I use skyfire, and it plays the youtubr videos, but without sound.. any idea?
[HTC Excalibur] Axiomkid:
I use a Program called Vtap. The Program is small and simple it searches youtube videos, myspace videos and more and streams without any problems. If you would like to give it a shot go to http://www.smartphonefreeware.org/download/vtap-0.143
[HTC Excalibur] joeskull:
I´ve tried TCMP and Kinoma before creating this post... both unsucessful, but Skyfire is the one.

But again, thank you all for your suggestions.

[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
If that floats your boat. Skyfire is a memory hog, it has over heating issues (battery and processor) it will be ad supported (as soon as it is out of beta testing) so look forward to clicking through an ad every page click... na, not worth it to me.
[HTC Excalibur] ETCMCC:
Vtap

I use Vtap by Veevo. It not only shows YouTube but tons of other video on the web. Plays great!
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
I have to agree with Bupahs... TCPMP is definitely the way to go (if you aren't using Skyfire w/ a high-speed connection). I have yet to experience a player with more crisp, clearer playback than TCPMP. I found that the trick is you have to access the Desktop version of YouTube instead of the mobile version. The mobile version won't allow you to use TCPMP, but the other version will. How can you tell the difference between the two, you may ask? The mobile version will use a black background, but the PC (Desktop) version looks identical to the one you're used to.

I installed HTC Streaming Media and I access my browser through the Java application that should be on your phone (it came with mine) and go to youtube and I'm able to watch videos perfectly fine.
[HTC Excalibur] enigmas4u:

there is a youtube app on m.youtube com, but for some reason i only get the audio, no video on it. which is ok because i just listen to music on youtube.
[HTC Excalibur] kungfubass1961:
am useing skyfire youtube works well for me, but if i wanted to do a lot of youtube viewing i go with the setup with tcpmp that bupahs has posted works way better then any other app out there,
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Can anyone link to the setup that Bupahs suggested? Also, is there any need for HTC Streaming Media if we have TCPMP?
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
NRG's new rom has a youtube app in it, from the HTC Snap.

I don't know if it works, but it's there and does open xD

However, when I created this thread, such thing was not available. Now it is. It´s simple like that..

Hey, I know a few of us registered for seeqpod when it was free, but have run into trouble after flashing a new rom.

Well, I contacted seeqpod and they just reset my email in their database.

They responded after a few hours. I reflash my phone A LOT, so i know this is gonna be a problem. However, they're looking for a way for this to become automated, so patience people.

Also they informed of a new version they have, so if you haven't downloaded seeqpod since you got it, check it out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] judasami:
So I have problem, I updated rom from sd card, it worked nicely, but when I try to update Radio, sd flashing app freezes in 'Update in Progress' state, in about 10 percents.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
It takes about 1/2 hour to flsh radio rom. DON'T interrupt the flash or you will get a brick...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] judasami:
:) I will try it to leave flashing for several hours even status is not moving.. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Black6spdZ:
I think what he is saying is if this happened the first time you tried flashing the radio you might have a brick at this point..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
Best idea would be to try and flash shipped stock rom, you might get lucky and fluke it... WM06 from the carrier you originally had would be ok too as the radio might be able to be fixed but don't count on it...:(

Theres been limited success...

Good luck...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] judasami:
I managed to flash rom called Manilla 2d, sometimes I have no gsm message sometimes not, I tried to use mtty to access radioloader but there are always error message. It is possible to check physically(by opening case) if the radio stack is destroyed?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] judasami:
I installed WM5 via sd-card with radio rom, it was going really slowly, I thought it freezed again, but then finally it started moving, and finished instalation. Even now I cannot remember how many procedures I have done :D many different roms, radios, mtty procedures........ and finally :) radio works, wm works :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
Cool, glad to hear it.

Now would be a good time to flash Hard SPL V7. It can help you out of perilous situations. Please remember though, even though it worked this time round, it may not again. I personally DON'T flash the radio rom unless I REALLY have to. Either use cooked roms or edit the originals using Rom Koch. You can remove the rdio part and flash just the os.

Cheers...:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Wam7:
Great advice there. Find a radio you like and stick with that. With the Hermes being end of line there, you won't see many if any new Radio's available. In my experience the best ones to date are either 1.47 or the 1.56 radio.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Xophile:
Every single time I want to use the phone in vibrate only I enable that and get an annoying vibration. Isn't there a way to turn ON vibration without having my Diamond to vibrate once and then shut up?

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Xophile:
Anyone have an idea about this? It annoys the hell out of me ;)

thank you!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Davey101:
I don't have this problem but it sounds like it could be caused by the HTC volume control. You could use the standard WM volume control instead, or use some sort of profile switcher to set the phone to vibrate mode.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Xophile:
Davey:

Are you saying that when you enable vibration mode your phone does not vibrate once just after vibration mode is turned on?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Davey101:
That's right. What method are you using to turn on vibration? The volume down button?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] AdamHC:
Hes not using the hardware volume buttons.

My phone does the same thing, what Davey is saying is that he uses the Windows Mobile program to switch his phone to vibrate.

I don't get how this is such a problem though...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Davey101:
Which program do you mean - the one in the settings tab in TF3D? I don't use TF3D or the HTC volume control and I don't have this behavior, ever. :D

My point is that there are plenty of other programs that are capable of switching vibrate on and off, the OP should look for one of those or write something in Mortscript.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Xophile:
I use the sound settings tab within TF3D mostly but I also hold down the bottom right button on the phone to enable vibration mode.

Can you give me a link to a better program for this?And can you simply disable the HTC volume controller?

Thanks for your time!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Davey101:
I use SPB Phone Suite to switch profiles automatically at night and during office hours. It's a great little program but it's not free and it's a lot more converient when you're not using TF3D so you can use the today plugin. I'm sure there are free alternatives here for the Diamond.

Please see this thread for disabling the HTC Volume Control:

My HTC ROM is 1.93.442.4 WWE

Radio : 1.00.25.08

HTC Diamond P3700

Changing the ROM ? with a modified one ? How to change the rom ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pacharru:
Make some tweaks on registry or install a new rom.

You are in the correct place to learn how to change the rom, and is simple.

But b4 you start read several forums about how to do it or you will get your diamond bricked.

Good luck and use "SEARCH" function of this forum. Is the best tool you will ever get.

Hi all i hope you can help me, i have a rc8 which i wanted to root so i followed this tut http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442480 , everything went fine until i upgraded it 2 the patched rc8, now it wont let me sign in using my account details. says that it cant communicate with google servers.
[G1 Android Development] samurai-holt:
Ok, Since my last post iv tryed flashing it again and again with both rc7 and rc8, and im still getting the same problem. it wont let me sign in to google, i cant connect to google server, so im guessing 3g's not working on my phone as the 2 little arrows arnt flashing, iv also tryed different apn's with no luck.
[G1 Android Development] Seanambers:
You should check to see if Data roaming is enabled or not, sometimes if it is disabled the phone wont connect to the data network. After a system update/downgrade. This happend to me after i downgraded my G1.

Just reboot the phone, try to login and you should get a message saying you have no data connectivity (or something like that, its been a while since i messed with that) then just enable 'Data Roaming' and try again. It is important to wait for the message concerning connectivity to appear as i belive it is the only way to access that menu(correct me if im wrong).

It is ofcourse also important to make sure you have all the right APN settings and whatnot right first. Good luck :)
[G1 Android Development] samurai-holt:
Hi Seanambers, thanx for you r reply.

I have no way in checking or changing the roaming settings on my phone, as im at the signing on screen all im able to do is create a google account to sign in with, use my current account to sign in with and change my apn's. I really dont understand whats happened. iv tryed my sim in my old phone and the data services are workin.
[G1 Android Development] Seanambers:
Well yeah, thats kinda what i mean there is no way to change the data network settings before you have logged in unless this dialog pops up. I am not familiar with the UK firmware but on the US firmware it gives you a message about connectivity where one is able to access the network menu and enable Data roaming.

You should note that this connectivity dialog dosent always appear at least from my experience, but when i rebooted the phone and after 1 or 2 attempts to login in it appeared.

This may not even be the solution to your problem if you can see a edge symbol og a 3g symbol on the status line then this isnt gonna change anything for you.

If you still arent able to get it to work did you buy it at a store? If so flash the original RC7 onto it and take the phone to them and ask if they can fix it =)

Good luck

Cheers =)

hey again, is there a way to compleatly restore the phone to rc8 uk i mean so it reinstall boot recovery system every thing, if not ill try rc7, also link to said files would be nice, thank you
[G1 Android Development] djind:
Had the same thing with connecting to google servers, but I found out it only works when I'm on GPRS. 3G somehow wouldn't let me connect, but when I got into the phone it worked again (I think). I have wifi at home, so I'm usually on that. And there was a time when 3G completely stopped working. Only GPRS worked. I installed RC8 (had RC30) and after a few tries it suddenly worked. I don't know I had 3G or GPRS when I connected to google servers. But you should try.

Also, I think there is a way to connect to the servers using wifi. But it's messy and you have to have root. I read it somewhere on the forums (activate without dataplan or smt)

Hi guys,

Question for blackstone owners. Do you have a ring delay like there is on the diamond?

I mean how many times it rings before you really get the blackstone make a ring?

thanks,

Drack
[Touch HD General] camro:
1-2 times = ~ 4sec
[Touch HD General] Pierced Soul:
I found it was worse when i used a custom ringtone or mp3 till someone suggested moving that ringtone to the ringtones folder or the phones inetrnal memory. since that time it's significantly improved
[Touch HD General] X3Mdesign:
where is that exactly ? my device/my documents/my ringtones ?
[Touch HD General] Pierced Soul:
the ones you edit go into the folder you mentioned (i think).

what i did is move them to Windows/Rings this seems to make the phone find the file a lot faster
[Touch HD General] inspireme87:

Thanks Camro. So that means this is not a lot better...I am still thinking is it worth to replace my diamond for the blackstone, but the ring delay problem seems to remain...

[Touch HD General] drack:
Hi Pierces Soul,

On my Diamond, my ringtones have always been in the windows\rings folder ...it doesn't change anything. People who are calling me hear 2 to 4 rings before I get one! ..and if the blackstone is not better...there is not reason to change for it...

[Touch HD General] Pierced Soul:
I'm not familiar with the diamond and the blackstone is my first winmo device so i'm unsure if the issue is a winmo one or an htc one

[Touch HD General] SomethingWicked:
one thing i found out: if you leave your custom sound files in \my documents or \storage card\my documents, you can use them for notifications as well, such as announcing an incoming text message. this doesn't work if you put them in \my documents\my ringtones. i haven't tried \windows\rings...

Turning off the HTC phone dialer and using the standard WM6 dialer made the biggest difference for me. This can be done within HD tweek.

Hi Adsar,

Of course there is workaround, but it is important to know if a device will work correctly out of the box. Also , changing the dialer will remove some charm of the device...

Hello guys,

since some weeks i got something like a pressure mark / dark spot on my xda orbit2 screen.

I dont know what happend to the screen but i think it is some kind of a hardware defect.

The touch-function works without problems and the picture displays normal but on the mark it is a little bit more dark.

This size is about 0,7 centimeter x 2cm.

Does anybody know what it is or got the same thing?

Is there a way to fix it.. but I dont think so :( .

How is it with the warranty? (Damn, i dont want to send it back.. the last time it toke 6 weeks).

Thanks

[Touch Cruise General] isellmidgets:
I have the same problem. I believe it resulted from someone grabbing my phone, not knowing how to use a touch-screen, and pressing MUCH too hard. Doubt it's a hardware defect; if the screen is pressed too hard, like any other screen not covered by a layer of glass, it'll get that sort of mark.

Hi,

I recently installed spb Mobile Shell on my Alltel Touch Pro and enjoy it thoroughly. It is much faster and user-friendly than the Touchflo 3D interface.

However, I am not fond of having to use coreplayer or WMP to play my music, I really liked the music player in the touchflo interface. I'm curious as to whether or not theres any way I can utilize the music player (I like how similar it is to the iPod Touch/iPhone music players) from touchflo 3d in spb mobile shell.
