i remember a statistic i heard on the radio back when the 20gig ipod was 1st out....

"assuming each song is 3 minutes long - it would take 13 years to listen to your library by listening to a different song each night...."
[G1 Android Development] gurnted:
I read where SDXC was mentioned so I read up on it and found this while doing so. There is another way this could be done. The HTC Dream has support for SDIO. So in theory you could make an adapter similar to the USB to CF ones that can be found for sale.

It would still require an alternate power source for something that uses that much power though. Not to mention you would have to create a driver to support the use of such a device, and you couldn't use an SD card if you were to do so. Guess you wouldn't need SD with as much space as the drive provides, but it would surely be slower.

All and all it's not a very practical solution, but still an option. So leaving your tunes at home and letting the network do the heavy lifting is still the best solution so far (aside from a head unit that supports usb mass storage).

I know coverage is awful in the upstate, unlike down here in Summerville (where we just got 3g this week :D) but I have caught full strenghth EDGE even out in Clinton/Enoree. So streaming music shouldn't be too bad.

I did also happen to see an SDIO VGA out adapter while researching this. How cool would it be to just plug our phone into a projector and stream movies to it from our collections at home? We are still probably a long way from being able to pull this off, but stilll. It shows that with all that has been done, we are barely scratching the surface of what these things can do.
[G1 Android Development] ScottGood:
Just a Note about this

I am all for a better way to get music from pc to G1 to Car Stereo. I for one hate listening to the same stuff all the time, I have over 750GB in MP3 Format and another 100GB or so in MP4, WAV, WMA, M4P and Flac
[G1 Android Development] MasterCLC:
This is a great idea. Not sure if the kernel has support for NFS client in it, but it wouldn't be difficult to recompile. The difficult part would be updating/signing and flashing the ROM with the new kernel. Maybe you could just go with a module?

[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
I know the ExtUSB port in Android can be used as a standard UART device, but I wouldn't expect it to support USB host. You can't simply reverse the USB port and hope things would work out. They won't!

I think, the most practical solution is to connect the G1 to a laptop through WiFi or bluetooth or USB cable and mount a shared folder. CIFS definitely work on Cyan builds. Not so sure about NFS.
[G1 Android Development] josevtome:
Come on! the man is giving an idea!! maybe for someone 8GB of music is enough for the rest of his life, but not to others! This guy just want to have a solutions so he can have all the music he wants in the truck. Instead of telling that he's crazy, let's put the minds to work a little bit! this is a forum for developers/projects, and an idea is an idea, everything can be done. Maybe not right now, but maybe sometime later!

Maybe 40GB of music is too much, ok (for me it is), but what if I want that external harddrive to store videos and watch them with my G1 while I'm on a traffic jam?! what if I want to download something from the internet while I'm on the car and I can store it on this external harddrive instead of using my small 8GB SDcard!

Maybe I just want it because I want to record a conversation that I'm having with my boss while I'm driving, or a video of a Bear that is crossing me by on the street.... I don't know! whatever uses you can give to an external drive connected to a powerfull device like the G1!

The NAS idea was quite nice by the way, it's a matter of plugging that in the car and create a network with it... maybe it's an expensive idea.

Something coming on to our minds?

Edit: Don't get me wrong, maybe this can't be done due to hardware complications, maybe the phone is not design to do something like this and there's no way to get it done. Still I think that this is a very good idea! :)
[G1 Android Development] ready4thebreak:
This is such a great idea. Now if it's possible than this would be extremely helpful, but for your peticular instance, there's a much easier solution. You're already looking to install a new radio, get a good one. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend getting a Pioneer(or Premiere, their higher series) radio with bluetooth and a USB port. It will save you much time and money. I personally use an iPod for mine, but their models can read an generic USB storage disk(my friend uses a 16 GB flash drive and his WD Passport on his). I don't know what you're price range is, but they have BT(stereo, by the way, so IF S.C. ever gets 3G you can stream Imeem or Last.FM and all just as I do) and USB equipped models starting at $260(retail but Amazon sells all their models for much cheaper obviously).

Hope that at least takes care of your situation. Now onto external hard drives...
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
I have a premiere deck in my truck right now, and I almost hate to get rid of it because it is a phenomenal head unit. It was $750 new as it is top o' the line when I bought it... but, no bluetooth, and no USB... (5 years old)

I think I've concluded the simplest solution would be to hook up an external drive straight to USB of the head unit...

I still don't want to give up on this idea though as there may some useful way to connect an external drive to a G1 that I haven't thought of yet...

I will definitely stick with premiere though... I'm an audiophile, it's gotta sound good..

Oh yeah, thats why my collection is so large. Much of my library is FLAC...
[G1 Android Development] soloxp:
Or you can do what I did 3ys ago. (Carpc)...I have all my music bout 200g and about 300g of moves and it have gps and HD radio.

Hell I can get XM satellite radio...but HD is better. And I can do alot more.

Now I use my G1 for internet

AWESOME

i just got my tmo tp2 and i wanted to know whats the difference between winmob 6.1 and 6.5

and what the benefit of putting a custom rom on my tmo tp2 thanx guys for yours and help?

does this void warrenty also?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] skyler17:
You can always flash back to your standard ROM in case you need to get it checked. It should not void your warranty, but who knows with carriers these days.

As for the difference between WinMo 6.1 and 6.5 the MAIN difference is an upgraded user interface. This becomes irrelevant with most HTC devices (including the Rhodium) because it is most likely skinned with TouchFlo (Manila)

However there are other things as well:

-An Improved mobile internet explorer w/ flash support and therefore

-Widget support

I may have missed another major difference- but those are what came to mind when I typed this up quickly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cwee477:
so what rom do your recommend?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pcboyy:
Energy Rom by NRG

flashing cooked Rom will void my warranty.. it happened to my previous Touch Pro by my distributor warranty.. i wanted to re-align my hard sliding keyboard and tight-up some keyboard buttons as they got irrenponsive but the SIS distributor refused to do it and they claimed i flashed cooked rom.. is that got anything to do with keyboard hard button? @_@
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] labbbby:
One of the thing that changes a lot with 6.5 is the Kinetic scrolling.

I just can't stand the 6.1 scrolling especially with finger Menu.

The start menu is also a huge improvement and with the newer build there's even more differences with buttons and everything.

As far as warranty goes, just flash back the SPL and the stock ROM they'll never know that you changed something...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
hi everyone.

it's kingo, from my blackstone with energy rom 3.0 (nice rom!),and this is my first post.

i was wondering... is there any way to run ubuntu arm on our beloved brick? i assume it would be under haret, and would need some controllers for its linux kernel, isn't it?

if it is already possible, i'd be happy. if its not, would it be possible to create an ubuntu image for haret using the controllers thata re being developed for android?

thanks in advantage. i'm sorry if my english sounds like an autist monkey. blame the spanish state school...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nirpaudyal:
I personally think thats an insulting reply from a senior member. A question was asked genuinely, no need for such remarks.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
er, ok. you must be very fed up of people 'asking before searching' to anwer this way. I was the fool, so I'll keep MY sarcasm this time.

If it's been asked here before, it must be the first topic I google for and don't find xda treads.

I'll search to find out why mine is a 'stupid question'
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcdull:
I would personal like to see PSP OS on HD, both are using arm... right?

haha....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] crypta:
the question is reasonable in my point of view.

if theres a way for android... why should there be a way for (other) linux based OS.

k, maybe theres no need for it.. but hey, why reacting so harsh?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kingofslide54:
Obviously the HD doesn't fit the hardware requirements for the PSP OS.

¿Is it obvious that it doesn't fit the requirements for Ubuntu ARM? I don't know. That's why my post was a question. At least ubuntu code is free and many people try to port it to any suitable platform... And it can run on a 528 mhz and 288MB ram desktop computer, can't it?

I didn't expect to have compiz running smoothly on the HD. But Ubuntu Mobile, Ubuntu ARM, Ubuntu Embedded (I don't know the difference) are suposed to run on "embedded devices"...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 4ntonios:
Hey guys... when i flash any rom i am getting stuck on the align screen. It tells me to tap the target and so on... when i do it the cross (target) appeard again at the beginning on and on. Can't do anything with it... please help! sorry if this thread has been solved somewhere else... i couldn't find it via search.:(:(:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
Sounds like you might have a bad digitiser. Did you flash because the touchscreen was a problem?

If it wasn't, try flashing a different rom and see if that helps. Otherwise you might need to replace the LCD and digitiser - the digitiser is a thin sheet that fits over the LCD, it registers the touch of the stylus so the Hermes knows where its been touched... If it goes, it usually opens the start menu no matter where you touched the screen.

Good luck in fixing this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 4ntonios:
well as you said... i was trying to flash the rom because of this problem (that you have described). I was just curious because the screen aligning was working and it recognized when i touched the target in the center of the cross. So if there's no other way how to get through this problem. I'll do it. Thanks a lot!

I had the same problem ones, and its not the fault of Vista it was also on a linux machine.

i format the sd card and everythig was normal again. the sizes where even 9GB I was shocked when is saw it, if you counted the size you got so many GB that you needed a 1TB HD for the files.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orelsi:
I don't think the X1's cards are hot swappable. Especially if you ahve apps on them.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
i have a similar thing, i have a folder with whats called [] [] []

i think its a bit buggered, going to copy all my stuff to the pc and format the card when i get time.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harveydent:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_XPERIA_X1

http://news.softpedia.com/news/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-X1-Review-102182.shtml

These websites CLAIM that the SD slot is hot-swappble. But then, I only trust Wikipedia as far as I'm willing to throw my Xperia (which is less than an inch :D )

Although for us who migrated from Sony Ericsson (K, W, C series which had hot-swappable SD card slots) to HTC, we assumed that the same would go for the X1 :eek:

@Ganondolf:

If you have a backup of the files in the folder with [] [] (for example, mp3s or apps) better restore from the backup rather than copy the corrupted folder to your pc and restore from there. :)

Would coreplayer fix this and play it smoothly?

Why is the video playing so poorly? Is is because it is being resized?

I was on the SENA website last night looking for cases for the HTC Touch Pro 2 and it's variants. I did not find any. I sent a message on their site asking if they had plans to make any. I received a prompt response saying they did NOT have any plans for these phones at this time, but would consider it if they received more requests for it.

So if you like SENA cases, (I do) you may wish to drop them a line asking them to support the HTC Touch Pro 2 and it's variants.

Thanks.

I sent Sena an email as well. Given the almost matching sizes of the iPhone, T-Mobile Google G1 and the TP2, I am wondering whether the TP2 would fit into one of those Ultra Slim pouches. Asked Sena to check this in case they will not produce one for the TP2. Keep you posted.

ok, i cant find the answer anywhere, can mobile defense work without a data plan?
[G1 Apps and Games] MasonGL:
Yes & no. The mobile defense app usually runs off of the gps and the text message that is sent that has a special code on it, but some features wont work but the important ones will
[G1 Apps and Games] momentarylapseofreason:
Long story short, no it will not. The only thing that will work is it will send the phone an email. After that, the phone will look to connect to the server and time out.

The email sent to the phone does nothing but tell the phone to contact the server. It does not lock, wipe, track, or anything else.
[G1 Apps and Games] Fingerlickin:
I agree with this except it's text messages not email. And they are simply commands to connect to the server.
[G1 Apps and Games] momentarylapseofreason:
Sorry, but it's actually an email sent to your TMO email address (as opposed to your Gmail account). This is why it comes up as "noreply@mobiledefense".

Send an email to XXX-XXX-XXXX@tmomail.net and you'll see what I mean :)

Since I am being nit-picky on details... technically it "does" go through T-Mobile's SMSC but it originates as an email.
[G1 Apps and Games] Fingerlickin:
I realize it was sent via email but your phone is receiving an SMS, just so people don't get confused here your phone receives an SMS message and you WILL be charged for an SMS if you don't have a texting plan regardless of how the message originated.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
So I purchased my sony x1i about 5 months ago. About 3 weeks back I started having problems with the xperias keyboard in which I was advised to send the phone to the repair center. I did so. So It reached them on august 18th. I got a call saying that the x1i I purchased could not be repaired and therefore they would send me back the x1a as replacement. Well I requested that I be given not only my x1i back(which is unrepaired mind you) along with the new x1a replacement. The representative along with the supervisor said such a thing could not be done. And that the north american region simply doesnt have x1is. At this point im furious. The reason why is because prior to my xperia purchase I was made aware of the specification differences between the two phones. i am aware that the x1i and x1a differ in Video quality as the x1i records vga/qvga at 30 fps and the x1a in qvga at 24fps. So essentially the sony repair team is trying to send me a phone other than the one I purchased. Im pissed off at this point because not only am I inconvinienced by the fact that I have to send in my phone for repair (which through inspection of sony is at no fault of mine) but now they are telling me I have only two options. Taking the phone which is different in specs or recieving my old phone unrepaired. Am i being irrational or is this ridiculous? To me the repair center is being inconsiderate. How are you to tell me after I paid 700 dollars for this device that you are not gonna repair it but can either just live with that or take a phone that isnt the phone i purchased originally?! I understand the North American region typically deals with x1a's but I know for a fact that x1 users here in the states have varied versions. So as x1i users are we just supposed to just live with the fact that we simply cant be helped? If i take my phone back im left with a unrepaired phone yet if I take the x1a im left with a phone which personally in my opinion is slightly lower. Yes this may be a minor difference but the fact that sony dealt with it this way is honestly pissing me off. I got the corporate number for sony and will talk to them tomorrow. This is a bit of a rant but I also look for insight from fellow x1 owners. So please share!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibeQuint:
SE is a hassle but don't fret. they will repair it, you just got stuck dealing with one of the many idiots there.

first of all SE has about 90000 "supervisors" all of which can do absolutely nothing, don't know anything.. and don't actually do anything.

I think they just have a surplus of new/refurbished units they are just trying to push on people.

I'm not sure what corporate number you have, but I'll PM you the right number to call and explain the situation to.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothal3v3l:
They said upfront they cant repair it. If i want my x1i then I have to be given the unrepaired one i sent in. But yes please do send me the number. Thanks!:)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibeQuint:
sent.

Trust me I know how the whole SE repair things work.. I had to send my phone in 7 times because of their mistakes. (Including them sending me back an X1a an saying it was going to be a new X1i.) NEVER believe anyone that tells you they will send you back a new X1i.

I'm trying to flash my unlocked Rhodium from MicroSD. It gets through the tricolor screen, to the white screen that says "Loading..." and just stays there.

The SPL version says SPL-0.79.0000

Do I have to upgrade the SPL for this to work?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] twisted:
hi,

have you installed hardspl to your device?

are you trying to flash stock/shipped rom or custom roms?

read these threads first:

1. hardspl

2. flash your first rom
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dementio:
Mine came unlocked, so yes, it has HardSPL.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] emwdava:
Do you mean Sim-unlocked?

That's not Hspl.

If your TP2 has Hspl it should look like in the attached picture.

You get to the tricolor screen by shutting the phone off (hold powerbutton until promted on screen and choose shutdown) and then press and hold the volumedown button and press the powerbutton. Release both buttons when you see the tricolor screen.

If not.... Then you have to install HSPL first and then flash stock/Custom ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dementio:
Yes, it's hard unlocked.

Without trying to sound pissy/cocky, I've done this quite a few times with my old Kaiser, but I had it totally unlock it myself, this one came that way.
