Well, you can try the Spotify service directly on a Windows PC, but you won't be able to test out the Android client without a premium subscription.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Sausageman:
I've being using it on my pc since the trial, but I wanted to see if reception was good enough for me to use this on my commute. I'm not quite sure what the offline listening people have mentioned is. Hence a few days trial would be enough for me to decide one way or another.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] foxmeister:
Offline listening means you can sync your playlists to your device, so you can listen to them without having to stream them from the net.

Your best bet is to buy a subscription, and cancel it if you are unhappy with the service.

Sorry to sound a bit cynical but whats up wi just plugging ya phone to pc and copy and paste :):)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] foxmeister:
Copy and paste what? The desktop version of Spotify doesn't allow for offline play, so you've nothing downloaded to the PC.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Sausageman:
I'm sure I'll sign up to this when I know I can afford it.

How long does syncing take? Would a playlist of 100 songs take hours?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] woobit:
Depends on your internet connection, of course.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Sausageman:
Does each song take as long as it would to download for example a 3meg mp3?

Edit: I've just seen a great video on YouTube that explains it all. My main query now is how much space do the tracks take up, as I need to get a new sd card and don't want to go too small!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] veejayjameson:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
I have a 4 gig sd card with it partioned ext2,ext3, and a linux swap. To be honest I don't know really what that means exactly, just followed the tutoriul to have my apps to go to my sd card. When I go to sd storage info it says.

Total space- 3,255mb Available space 1,875 mb.

Under Sd card secondary it says Total space- 457mb Available space- 292mb

For Internal phone storage it says 78mb available.

My question is where are my apps actually going? And where does my other stuff such as music, movies and other files go? From what i am guessing I have 1875mb for files and 292mb for apps. Correct? Thanx in advance for explaining this too me.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
It should be fat32, ext3, linux-swap. 78 megs sounds right for apps2sd. Your apps go to ext3 along with your cache, movies and other files you can browse on your phone go to your fat32which is your normal storage and swap is a location where your phone puts operating memory to hold more processes in the background(helps out you ram)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jashsu:
This is a warning flag that you will probably brick or otherwise disable your phone in the future.

Nothing in the dev subforum should be performed until you fully understand how it works.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
I doubt everybody here knows exactly every technical detail and aspect about their phones. In addition I knew I was partioning my sd card just wanted to understand where all my files were going. I have successfully rooted my phone the old fashion way and installed numerous roms and themes after many hours of reading and following directions in these forums. I'm sorry i am not expert in linux or coding. All I asked was for some information of the subject, if you can't help then don't post. Thanks gridlock for your answer.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
You are welcome but I must defend jashsu, you have only been a member since last month and made a few posts, he was just staying on the side of caution because there are a lot of people who just dive in without knowing what they are doing and no offense but your ? Was a common type of ? That a noob who did not have much knowledge would ask
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jashsu:
I tried to help, you weren't receptive of it. Maybe a second time with some added emphasis will drive the point home?

Nothing in the dev subforum should be performed until you fully understand how it works.

Are there people in the dev forum who can/should do things that they don't fully understand? Of course; they are the hackers and experimenters who are not afraid of bricking their devices. I assume (perhaps wrongly?) from your comment "I don't know really what that means exactly, just followed the tutoriul" that you are not one of those people. I'd be happy to be proven wrong. :p

I stand by what I wrote.

Edit: by the way the asking of questions (although searching would be good too) is part of the process of learning and therefore understanding. I was not at all trying to discourage you from asking the question, I was just pointing out the danger of proceeding with dev modifications without proper understanding.

[Dash 3G, Snap General] dougvan:
I used the cab file found in another thread to fix the ICS tethering issue i was having and can now tether using ICS via USB or BT. It works great but whenever I make/receive a call, i lose data connectivity. My co-workers AT&T tilt will drop back from 3G to edge during a call but will still allow a data connection, mine will not however.

Is this just the way it has to be with Sprint and/or HTC Snap or is there a way for me to fix this?

Thanks!
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Jas0nMack:
cdma cannot do voice and data at the same time so there is no fix.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] zipswich:
Hi dougvan,

Is the cab file you referred to the following?

I used toast.net to find its speed 550kb, not bad at all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hayer:
hi guys, im planning on getting this phone and have one question is the screen glass i know its capacitive but read somewhere its a HARD PLASTIC can anyone verify?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ClintonH:
Nope not glass, plastic.

Clinton
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chefgon:
It's the same hard plastic screen that the G1 has. That said, it's pretty scratch resistant. I've been carrying mine loose in my pocket with no case or screen protector at all for about four months (and the G1 for about six months prior to that) and the screen looks identical to how it did when it first came out of the box. I wouldn't worry about it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hayer:
thanks, and how is the sensitivity is it like iphone i know you guys hate having to compare phones to the iphone but ive used the htc elfin for a year and just hate the screen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ClintonH:
About the same depending on which screen protector you use. The VKB seems a little less sensitive, HTC one is better but still not quite. You'll get used to it quickly though.

Clinton
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] nmesisca:
...and the Elfin (HTC Touch 3450) had a resistive not a capacitive
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hayer:
to the above post yes i do know that but its been mentioned that the screen is plastic so i assumed it would be like the elfins in a way.. sorry for misuunderstanding
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] lbcoder:
Don't know where these guys are getting their info. I can't speak for magic since I don't have one, but the screen (digitizer actually) on DREAM is DEFINITELY GLASS.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kchau:
engadget says its plastic
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] origins81:
I wouldnt listen to engadget if i were you, they have been saying a lot of baseless things lately:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] naplesbill:
I know that my cousin has a G1 with a cracked screen. It certainly cracks like glass.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] n1ck75:
It is a tempered and laminated composite, laminated so it can make use of the capacitive screen. That's why it has that plastic feel to it. But it is glass hence pretty scratch resistant

(therefore its both)

when i try to make a connection with my router, it connects just fine, but then the Internet Explorer acts like theres no internet connection,

[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] billabongstaff:
Hey guys, I've just finished all XIP and SYS procedures, kitchen is up and in running in Portuguese, so I can build this ROM for you right now, but I'm currently translating ALL of HTC Mega Packages into Portuguese using PE Explorer and I could use a hand or else it's gonna take me forever to do this on my own. If anyone cares to help, I'll be uploading this custom ROM with latest XIP and SYS for Iolite enterely in Portuguese, even with those HTC applications.

If there is no soul willing to help me, I'll just be able to pick this up again on the weekend.

Hope someone volunteers soon. I rebuilt the packages into their correct structure and I'll send you just the files you need (.exe.0409.mui) to make this as quick as possible.

Oh, and I'm going for a flawless Portuguese translation, so easy on the slang.

:D

Best regards,
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] g77:
You can count on me to build this thing up bro! So let's see: the problem is SYS_Lang_0816 packages for wm6.5 right? I never cooked a wm6.5 rom but my experience with 6.1 rom is that it would be better to port the whole SYS instead of replacing Lang_0409 for Lang_0816 packages.

Still one thing: where to find wm6.5 SYS in PTG since MS didn't released the 0816 emulator image?:confused:
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] billabongstaff:
HTC only

Hey, g77, thank you for taking interest.

No, I have already ported XIP and have got the PTG SYS files required, along with the COMMON ones, which are not language dependent, I got them from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=544445

The only thing I am translating right now are the applications in the EXT folder, the ones that were written for HTC Mega - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=541625 - which are in English. I want to translate HTC's applications such as Manila2D (TF2D) and the only thing required is that we edit the resources of the .exe.0409.mui files with PE explorer and replace English text with Portuguese.

Still care to help?

Best regards,
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] g77:
Sure I will :) Now dumping PTG Iolite for OEM pkgs... Got HTC Mega from link for cheking versions and new software.

And yes, HTC only, no ****! I'll PM you later
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] billabongstaff:
Let's get to work

Great, let's get to work, then.

I already dumped the Iolite OEM in PTG too. My kitchen is already up and is only missing the HTC applications translations, so all the work is done except for that.

We'll go 50-50 on the .exe.0409.mui files that I haven't translated yet, how does that sound?

Be sure to PM me, then. Oh, and by the way, you can PM me in Portuguese, 'cause there is really no need to write in English other than the Forum itself.

the other day i realized thay my treo 750 with the standard windows mobile 6.1 update was auto soft resetting itself!!

i tried to soft reset it by poking the stylus on red button by the miniSD card and nothng happens!!

any help?
[Palm Treo 750] junglemonkey:
solution

i did a hard reset....

i had spb installed and it has a soft reset button...so luckily i could soft reset it using software so i did a hard reset and the problem went away

i could only think it was some kind of software conflict causing my problem

i didnt reinstall all the apps and games i had in before...and so far so good
[G1 Apps and Games] TheUriel:
Ok so i installed Cynogens ROM and its good , after words i installed a theme and it had a bunch of apps that i didnt need so i had removed it but then i had checked the widgets and it contains some widgets i do not need. So the problem here is i had read something about not being able to remove stock apps/widgets but i was able to remove stock app with Terminal so is there any code for Terminal to remove widgets ?

Didnt see any "Apps Question/Answer" thread so i made my own thread. Thnx in advance , and for those of you who like to get many post by saying "-link-Search button-link-" your out of luck , yes i used the system search.

can anyone recommend a quality fm transmitter? dont have an aux input in my car radio (damn thing has everything else but no input!).
[G1 Accessories] pistol4413:
I believe belkin might make a mini usb transmitter. But u can use on of those tape deck converters with a headphone attached. That's what I use from time to time. I'm not sure if ur radio has a tape deck lol considering its dead tech lmao
[G1 Accessories] damngood98:
lol! My radio's not that old. Couple of years but was one of the better pioneers. Quite a few bells & whistles, sat. radio, ect., just no stupid aux input!
[G1 Accessories] random_username_:
this one is £4.99 ($8.15656) it is really good once you find a free frequency and powering it from the car cigarette lighter is a must because it is SH*T when running it from batteries
[G1 Accessories] AdamPI:
Are you sure it doesn't have an aux round the back?

I picked up an FM transmitter from Netto for £1.99 or £2.99 a while back, quite big though. They were selling it as "Wireless headphones" as it came with some FM headphones.

just buyed this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230364641674&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT hope that can works good. I'll update about it!
[G1 Accessories] atsic:
In Italy is not possible to use it as described. The problem? No free fm freqeuncy, and even if found one in the car is mandatory to change frequency to find new frenquently. So useless, the only solution can be to remove the camble of the antenna and to put it near the fm trasmitter but in this case we have to rennunce to the fm radio.
[G1 Accessories] cedricberger:
Same for me. I have the Belkin transmitter, but never could use it.

You just struggle to find a free frequency, and a few kilometers later, it is all jammed already.

I even tried to find something like 3 different frequencies for different parts of my daily trip... and I failed...

And even when I found some working frequencies, sound was rarely free from perturbations.

Note that country legislations are different (I am in France) and maybe in us you can have a transmitter with stronger emission, which might improve the situation a bit.

( linked Belkin product : "This product is compliant with the EU standard for Band II Low Power Devices for use in Germany, Switzerland and Iceland" so maybe try a US version instead ? )

I did not try unplugging external antenna. If it did solve the problem, you would have to find a way to have a switch to plug/unplug it... (not so easy !)
[G1 Accessories] atsic:
for me the only solution that can let it work properly is to find the cable of the antenna in the car. After discovered out where is located try to put the trasmitter very close to the antenna cable. It can work. Another solution can be to reduce a little the power of receiving signals of the antenna, that can let to listen good the frequency well trasmitted and at the same time to

free some others.

update: I tryed to use the fm trasmitter buyed without the battery but only using the alimentation from the car. The things seems to work really good now. Even with a not clear radio station is trasmitting with more power and the signal of the fmtrasmitter is going over other signals.

If is possible to reduce a little the power of the car's antenna it will be really really perfect!
[G1 Accessories] plazmagog:
Here is one from Dealextreme.com.

Pros:

Cheap

Puts out a strong FM signal

Remote is nice, even though it's goofy looking

Charges and transmits at same time.

Cons:

Low Volume

Bad bass output

Takes forever to arrive.

Cheap plastic.
[G1 Accessories] evilkorn:
Yep, just got mine today as well. Works fine, remote is goofy as hell (have yet to try it though). It could fit a little snugger, but it holds will concidering the extra thickness with my battery.

No weird hissing and strong output with pandora and music on my sd card.

4/5 for it "just working", but doing it well.

Hello everyone.

Is it possible to get Market updates on apps that are sideloaded?

Let me start by saying Yes, I Google (and forum) searched for a solution...probably for the better part of 2 hours and I couldn't find an answer.

I recently went from cupcake to CM 4.0.4 (great ROM). But before that, I used ASTRO to back up almost all of my apps to my SD. After flashing, I used ASTRO to restore my apps, but now none of them show in My Downloads in the Market. Also, when I search for an app that's installed on my phone, the Market doesn't recoginze that I have it installed.

Is there anything I can do, or do I have to download them again?
[G1 Apps and Games] maxdamage2122:
search for "atrackdog" in the market
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
Market will not care at all about sideloaded apps. It will only update the apps that it has recorded in its local database. Wiping deletes that database. It would definitely be nice if the Market had some kind of bulk reinstall, but you have to keep in mind that the AOSP team never intended for users to wipe their data/cache very often.
[G1 Apps and Games] xidominicanoix:
i guess learn how the market database works and then add all the entries back into database after reinstall?
[G1 Apps and Games] AdrianK:
aTrackdog is your best bet. I use it all the time and always tells me wehn there are updates for apps on my ext3 partition.
[G1 Apps and Games] oophlamer:
aTrackdog works well for finding the updates & once I install the update, it appears to register to the built-in notification system, but my purchased apps still aren't working.

I'll see what I can figure out about the Market database files & share whatever I find.

Thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] kizer:
I'm pathetic because I just goto the market using my wifi connection and search for all my apps and update them manually and then later I get notices. Sure it takes some time and its work, but I don't flash my roms a lot like I used to.

if i hard reset my treo 750 ...that already has the upgraded WM6.1..will it erase the WM6.1 and restore it back to WM5 that it originally came with?
[Palm Treo 750] einsteinecker:
Oh it definitely will not erase your WM6.1 upgrade, only personal data, so rest assured WM6.1 is there to stay. The only way you would erase WM6.1 is if you flash another ROM, naturally.

I myself have hard reset many times one after the other (to test program compatibility with this Chinese ROM I'm using) and WM6.1 has returned to life again and again. There has got to be a limit as to how much your device will appreciate continuous Hard Resets in a row, though. I relate Hard Resets similar to formatting a memory card, there's always consideration for how many file deletions flash memory can take.
