Where do I sign up?

Was thinking about building my own mp3 but your player pretty much rocks.

I use it all the time on my g1. I rather contribute and help to improve it.

I can help in the design & coding.
[G1 Android Development] fabrantes:
cool! send me an email (filipe.abrantes / gmail.com). ill be setting up a google project in the next couple of days.
[G1 Android Development] Wii60:
I'd strongly suggest making your widget take up the whole screen and provide a lot of function. That way you could slide over to your music player and then slide back.
[G1 Android Development] RaiderX303:
bought this on the market earlier, and got a refund saying item discontinued
[G1 Android Development] fabrantes:
its free now :P, re-download it :P
[G1 Android Development] RaiderX303:
ah ok, that sorted that, now would there be a reason that im not getting the transparent background?
[G1 Android Development] mr.r9:
Good luck man! I see your point of view. It's really weird that essential apps aren't being made and improved open source style on Android. I salute you! :)
[G1 Android Development] fabrantes:
Translucent background was removed back somewhere in v1.2.x for performance reasons. The UI would get really laggish. I thought of making it an option, but never got the time to really put it in place.
[G1 Android Development] torturedsoul802:
Really hoping that RockOn evolves...it has alot of potential, but at the moment I use TuneWiki... smooth interface (although not as flashy), integrated lyric search, community interaction, etc... TuneWiki would be a good template for features to integrate into RO.
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
That would be fine for most of us since we have 5 screens (or however if using rogros launcher) so we have extras screens. Everyone else out there has only 3 screens and probably using it atleast alittle big. So if you would really want a full screen widget then you'd also need a smaller one as a second option.
[G1 Android Development] Woodard2589:
a full screen widget would be really nice. Would be great if you could get it to play similar music like mixzing does or the itunes genius playlist.
[G1 Android Development] razmalai:
fabrantes - Really like your music player. Awesome creativity and functionality with your app.

I use an HTC adapter to plug in my headphones and it has a button I can press twice to skip to the next song

On the default music player I can press the button once and it pauses the song.

It would be cool if you might add that to your app as well.

Thanks again awesome app.
[General Questions and Answers] marquk:
I keep my phone always in vibrate (i like it this way) but everytime I use AudioManager to play music I need to turn the volume up in the system for music to be played through the earphones and then turn it back to vibrate when I finish.

In all the devices I have used before (Symbian, iPhone, simple phones, etc) playing music over the earphones always worked in silent/vibrate mode but in the HTC Touch 3G the speaker/earphone volume seems to be linked to the same control. Is this at all possible? maybe with a reg change?
[General Questions and Answers] sheennick123456:
you should be posting questions in "questions and answers" thread

please take care

for your question keep ring volume zero and system volume full

and set your ring style to "vibrate and ring"
[General Questions and Answers] marquk:
thanks for your suggestion but it does not seem to work fully - I did what you said but when I receive text messages or the battery is low the phone still plays these tones in loud mode, i.e. the phone is not silent. I would like to have the phone fully silent and still play music through the earphones (just like every other phone does; symbian, iphone, crappy phones, all phones)
[General Questions and Answers] sudist:
If you make a ".MP3" or ".wav" with nothing (no sound) in it.... you're phone should play the sound (nothing!) and vibrate.... and lateron music starts playing again at normal volume.... not so ?
[General Questions and Answers] marquk:
that would probably do it - it just seems like such an effort to do something which is so obvious and all other phones can do :P

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotkaeqpchen:
I dont know, im asking myself, why the dates für european countries differ that much. yesterday amazon.co.uk said august 15th. but i dont believe it, because orange is already shipping the hero, dont they?

@Rotkaeqpchen: Did you yet get a status update on your Amazon order regarding the delivery date? I'm still (nervously ;)) waiting for any hint from Amazon itself that I'll be able to hold my Hero in my hands comes the weekend.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotkaeqpchen:
Hey foosel ;) Also ich hab extra deswegen ja direkt bei HTC nachgefragt, weil ich schon am 16. Juli vorbestellt habe und Amazon.de seitdem den Status nicht upgedated hat. Ich glaube WENN ein Releasedatum wie von HTC gegeben ist, dann ist Amazon der ERSTE der sofort ausliefert, weil der wichtigste Shop.

Ps. Kein Samsung Galaxy kaufen, das hat nur 128 MB Ram und ruckelt ganz schrecklich.

Translation by Google
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foosel:
Heh, nope, certainly no Samsung Galaxy for me.

I'll try to calm my nerves then a bit -- I so want to get my hands on that phone, already reading up on android development while waiting for stuff to compile at work, and it's getting more and more difficult to keep my patience the longer I have to wait. Will be some more tough days I guess ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foosel:
Just got a mail from amazon. The release of the silver gray Hero (which I preordered) will be August 6th (website) or August 7th (my order state) with delivery on 8th. No update on the white one as of now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotkaeqpchen:
This is exactly what i have read now. I preordered the white one so i really hope that mine will be available sooner.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foosel:
Well, the later release date is not what I hoped for, but at least it is a definite date. The last days spent keeping my fingers crossed that amazon will make the 31st while fearing and suspecting they wont really drove me nuts. *sigh* At least I have certainty now. Added bonus: First day of my vacation ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotkaeqpchen:
Ok amazon.de finally set the date of availability to 5th of august. Yeeha! :)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Curehead:
Hello everybody,

Since the best phone ever died (or better: drown) on me (HTC Universal OFCOURSE!). I had to look for a replacement and TP2 seemed like the best of bad things. LOL!

I noticed that the wall charger had a 5V -1A(mpere) output. My (standard) car charger has a 5V - 0,5 A output. So I got the notice "your current power supply... not enough ...close some ...."

Besides the fact that e.g. tomtom uses more than the charger can give, i was wondering :

is it BAD for my battery charging at 0,5A instead of 1A ?

how much A does a laptop give when charging my TP2 trough USB port?

HAs this got sth to do with the fact that in some programs there is an option like "do not charge while connected to PC?"

I know this is more of an offtopic question, but I hope there is somebody with enough electrical knowledge to help me out! I posted it also in the general section, but since it is an TP2 issue maybe it is better placed here.

Sorry for possible inconvenience!

THX!

Kjoere
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
Each USB port churns out 5V at 500mA max (i.e., 0.5A).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Curehead:
Thank you mesquire,

Do you have any idea what the effect is of charging with different AMpere?

E.g. my BT-earphone has 180mA - so better not charge this through laptop I suppose (too much is never a good thing:rolleyes:) - but the otherway charging with less A, that I haven' got a clue ...

C.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ronh:
You can face problems that it starts to charge, but stops after x minutes.

I have replaced my carcharger with the original HTC CC C100 which delivers 1Amp.

Never had any charging problems with that one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Curehead:
Hi ronh,

replacing is ofcourse an option, but I was mainly wondering what the possible effects could be on the battery. On a Dutch site I found that Lithium-Ion batteries have no memory effect so all ampères below should be "theoretically" be ok.

Greetz,

C.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
You can expect longer charge times through USB port than with the supplied charger.

A USB flash drive draws only about 100mA from the port, so the port should provide just enough power to charge your Bluetooth handsfree (but do make sure the device needs 5V to operate or you could fry it).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Curehead:
Hi mesquire,

thanx again, but I am still in the dark. You seem to make a difference between a USB port (500mA) and a USB flash drive (100mA), but i don't understand this (maybe my english isn't good enough :)).

Do i understand you correctly is i say that the device connected also has sth to say in how much power comes out?

I thought the ampere is sth like a 'flow of current' and when more comes out than wanted by the receiver, it euh likes ... flood (too much current) the device (and does damage). Does this make any sense?

Ciao,

Kjoere
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rosebud:
Your device will only pull the amount of amps required,

as long as the input voltage is the same you should be fine.

you will be OK to charge the phone at 500ma however this will take longer to charge,

I charge mine using my laptop regularly - that matches your car charger at 500ma,

you may find however, when using gps etc, that you are draining more power than being supplied by the charger and the battery will begin to discharge.

hope this makes sense,

Steve
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] crazy talk:
they do have a memory, but the software/charger will not let you damage the battery.

anyway, assuming the battery can be charged at 1C (up to 2C is possible with some batteries, but can adversely affect battery life) you can theoretically charge the battery at a maximum of 1.5 amps safely. (assuming 1,500Mah battery)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fraser:
TP2 doesn't have li-ion, it's a LiPo which doesn't have memory. They do have a limit on how many times they recharge as well as a shelf life, figure on buying a replacement every 1-2 years I'd guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] somethingdope:
are you sure ?? i went to the power settings and it says main battery: Li-ion

which i presume stands for lithium ion ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
Lithium Ion doesn't have memory.

Nickel Cadmium and Nickel MetalHydride have meory: i.e. if you charge it when it's at 70%, the next time it gets down to 70% it will think it's empty as it "remembers" that as the charging point.

With Lithium Ion you can charge them at any moment, ergo no charge. Adn they too have a life of about 500 charges.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] frogfoot:
The battery in my TP2 says LI-ION on the back, so perhaps some are LI-Po and some LI-ion? may go some way to explaining why some people are happy with their battery life and some not so.

Tom
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
Shouldn't really matter truth be told. As long as they have a rating of 1500mah they should last the same amount.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fraser:
Are you sure it doesn't say "Li-ion Polymer"? There is a distinction, particularly in cost! ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] krisez:
my australian TP2 says Li-ion in big letters, and Li-ion Polymer in the fine print
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
The difference is in cost, and weight, but the end result in a cell phone or pda is more or less the same due to the low power demands.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
My TP2 battery says Li-ion on the actual label itself.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Curehead:

Hi Steve,

Thx man! So now i Know i only have to worry about voltage. So I can charge my earphone in my car (which only wants 180mA) and my phone (1A). You are right that it sometimes (navigation, BT) uses more power than it gets (500mA), I get some message saying that by the way.

Any way thanx a lot !

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] singing hound:
Hi there, good question.

Pocket Informant "PI8" from WebIS does have a Touch Mode, and it's very good indeed.

Calender Touch also is good, and looks fantastic, but it's not flexible, especialy if you work with multiple, changing categories. (You can't delete them once you've reated them!)

PI8 isn't as pretty, but it looks very professional, and is incredibly advanced.

The other one I've used is AgendaOne, which is more flexible than CT, and is certainly much much better than the vanilla version. I used that for about 2 years, but have changed to PI8 because it supports Steven Covey's methodology, which I like...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] piannetta:
Thanks for that - this applications looks excellent. The only problem it's really slow on my device, which is a shame. It's too slow to be useful for me I'm afraid, but appreciate you bringing it to my attention.

[Touch HD General] verygrumpy:
I'm starting to struggle with my T-HD, I seem to have more fixing & patching applications on it than the nice day to day stuff you would want or expect on a high end device competing against the iPhone...

My current source of annoyance is that the bluetooth connection between the T-HD and my Landrover Freelander 2 that has been working fine for 6-months now either (a) doesn't connect or (b) does connect but when I dial out through the MMI saying "dialing" but then drops out or (c) we make a sucessful call but at the end the MMI states "phone disconnected" and when it reconnects it re-sync's the phonebook which all takes time...

Based on advice from the forum i've...

deleted and recreated the "pairing" ensuring everthing is visible,

used HD Tweak and Advance Config tools to fine tune the BT settings,

tried different BT COD values,

removed PhoneEX

installed JETware Mobile

All to no avail, the phone connection still drops.

My Nokia 6300 works fine by comparision and I can't fathom why, after 6-months of operation, this fault develops.

I've searched high and low for BT fixes, W6.1 drivers and HTC hotfixes but the options seem to be more "fixing applications" or a custom ROM nieth of which I'm keen to undertake as my T-HD is fill up with applications to fix basic functionality that should work.

Anyone else have any ideas? Can the BT drivers be replaced or updated?

HELP...

:confused:

ROM ver 1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE

I've only made it work if I connect the streaming on the BT configuration, but it have other problems as all the PDA sounds are routed through the car stereo, which can be uncomfortable if you are listening to the radio or a cd.

Could it be that problem is related to a 'power saving' configuration?

There seem to be plenty of fellow sufferers, strange that HTC don't seem to recognise their BT is flakey.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] PryorDaniel:
There's a fix you can find somewhere that disables T9. That's what causes the Fuze's weird word completion.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] imaginarynumber:
To the best of my knowledge there is no working solution.

I tried the registry changes ages ago that turned off the crappy t9 but it fecked up the full size software keyboard, when I clicked on the numbers tab it refused to go back to the abc option and I had to hard reset, changing the reg keys made no difference.
