Hi there.

I have been trying some new ROMS and came across a pv player(or video player) which I found on the 1.56 orange stock ROM. I find this very useful as it cn play videos that i cant play with the htc album. I tried to cut and paste the pvplayer.exe and pvplayer link unto my storage card but i get a message saying it is either signed with trusted certificate or one if its components cannot be found. Is there a CAB file for this program or any other way I can get this program?

Thnks

Hello,

I have some problem for cooking the rom, I have sucessfully translate all the menu with the *.040C.MUI and some files come from an HTC Original French ROM. The physical keyboard work fine in Azerty but the Virtual keyboard still in qwerty (I have make some Registery tweak for the physical keyboard)

The 2nd problem is the shorcut for camera for example, I add the Package from the Frenc HTC ROM (WM6.1) (CAMERA_6_01_32976_00). The mxiupdate_Package File have the good way for shorcut but it doesn't work

Thanks you in advance for your help

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
TF3D is cute, but IMO not useful.. You're right, that stupid "flipping numbers" thing is beyond stupid. What the hell is it really doing? Every time anything changes, it flips random numbers around. Perhaps if the device and graphics were uber fast it wouldn't be bad, but it's.... well, daft.

If your phone is dropping calls, that's hardware/radio, not Wm 6.5...

Personally I had my Tilt 2 about 3 days before I moved my SIM from my Tilt to my Tilt 2. In that time I was setting it up, adding my programs, updating random stuff to go from QVGA to WVGA. Along the way I used TF3D a little, but it was mostly just aggrivating so I went back to Pocket Plus where I can use my Today Screen plugins that I love.

There's a whole thread about not using TF3D, I think you should just read it, I think it covers most of your gripes ;-) TF3D is just a Today Screen plugin, you realize that right? If you want, disable it, use what you used in WM 6.1. It should all work, assuming resolutions or other compatibilities, but personally all of my today screen plugins worked.

If you're comfortable flashing ROM's - try some of the offerings from the chefs here. I used my T-Mo TP2 stock for about 2 days before flashing. They make a huge difference in both performance and usability. I'm partial to AthineOS and NRG's ROM's, currently on the latest AthineOS with WinMo 6.5.1 (Start and OK on the bottom - very finger friendly) TF3D 2.1, as of last night. I use a product called Sashimi (Google it) which automates flashinbe by auto-configuring all my apps, wifi, ActiveSync, customizations, etc. I can now flash a ROM and be up and running as if nothing happened in about 30 minutes. The custom ROM's are all mostly tweaked for speed, and are absolutely faster than my stock ROM was.

Opera is head and shoulders above IE these days, get a copy of 9.7, it compares very well to the Safari browser on the iPhone - the best mobile browser IMHO.

I've had a Tilt (numerous WinMo's actually), iPhone 3GS (still have it), Android G1 (still have it), and think right now this phone beats most.

The one area I will agree is very buggy still is the landscape flipping. I just make sure I'm in a very compatible program (Opera, Mail, Garmin, etc) when opening the slider, and then stay away from TF3D while landscaped. It's a bit of a PITA, but worth it for the awesome keyboard.

Don't give up, this phone has a ton of potential.

God! this is too much!! I've had this damn problem pretty much fromt the start (since I bought x1). Sometimes (in fact loads of times) x1 gets stuck and I'll have to soft reset it. When I do, it gets stuck when it says Windows mobile 6.1. And nothing else happens and then i'll have to soft reset it again!! Today it happened again and I had to soft reset it nearly ten times before It got normally switched on!! What should I do??! Plleeeeeeeeaaaase help. I'm getting fed up with this.

I also did a software update using SE. followed by a hard reset. Problem persists. :(
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickysio:
Flash another ROM? Sounds like some system file was corrupted to me.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:
That still happens to me - 6.1 or 6.5 ROMs made no difference. Though I have noticed now that the less you install on the phone, the less chance there is for the need to soft reset over and over again. I also noticed that if I turn wifi off before I turn off the phone, it's easier booting back up.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koffeemachine:
does this happen the same with the memory card removed?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoXerO:
Happened to me. Hard-Reset fixed the problem for me.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irfanulla:
I already did a hard reset: Wouldn't do ant good. I haven't tried with mem card removed.

BTW it happened again but this time It came good at the 2nd attempt.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:
I've never tried. Do you get an error when you use it as drive mode? I sometimes get an error saying that the card is corrupted.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickysio:
Corrupted memory cards might cause issues too, so try another card or remove the card, as another poster suggested.

Hi volks

I have unlocked my t-mobile mda Vario 3 (aka kaiser) and everything working fine, it work with all sims(f.e. A1, telering, ...) but not with "Hutchinson 3 Austria" it is an umts network and the kaiser should work whit it!

when i put in the 3 sim i can enter pin, device searching for network, but the kaiser will not connect to network, always searching for network. i live in Vienna, a big city, there should be enough signal strength *gg*

i also tried another 3 sim but will not work tried to change band settings and network settings but will not work. i also brought the kaiser to t-mobile and they send it to service, the service says that the device works fine and is unlocked

so anybody an idea?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] 4jamie4:
i also have the same problem with my o2 sim card. it acquires a connection briefly then cuts out again and just keeps searching for a network
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] chinomoreno:
it happened to me too, i resolved the situation by inserting a piece of paper on the top of simcard, to make pressure because with time kaiser loses pressure needed to read the card...

For the last 2 weeks, customer reps at O2 have been assuring me that the HD2 would be released week starting 19th October. (This week)

Having just got off the phone to them for the 5th time this week, I have just been told that they have pushed the release date back to early November!!!!

Does anyone have any release dates for any other networks yet?
[General Topics] Shasarak:
I've heard the date November 6th mentioned in connection with T-Mobile.
[General Topics] Pantaloonie:
Mine is due for despatch on the 11th Nov.
[General Topics] Dark Fire:
I think it's likely that O2 and T-Mobile will be releasing the HD2 at roughly the same time now, so early November looks very likely.

Hi, I wanna flash the haykuro SPL since it make wider the numer of room's I can flash on it but I'm not sure to follow a easier way to flash it I thought but I've not found any report on it.

Since newer Recovery Images let you flash any *.zip on the uSD card, It may not be necessary to use 2 uSD's or use de uSD reader.

I mean, I can jus paste the , radio, Haykuro SPL's and a ROM *.zip's, boot into recovery, flash the radio, then flash the SPL, and then flash the ROM?

THANKS!

But i have some trouble to set VSCREENINFO. :mad:

Maybe wrong video fromat.

So I have to check some different video's.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aksd:
what about audio? looking at some posts in the MPLAYER discussion VSCREENINFO issues appear to be something to do with framebuffer of the kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
I've been trying to get audio working, although in a Magic 32B, but I have failed so far.

Do you Hero owners see /dev/dsp or /dev/snd0 ?

Do you get any audio at all? If so, using what device?

From the very limited information I've managed to get so far, Dream owners do get sound, though I have no idea how and why.

I've used the how-to mentioned in the first post, no success so far.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] us1111:
Perhaps this helps: read-write access for /dev/msm_pcm_out

So chmod this device file and use it as audio out?

I'm actually curious about how a native linux app would render video on android. There is no X so framebuffer would be the only way. But then, how do you get user in/output?

@all

follow things i have tryed:

- Crosscompiling svn-version mplayer, there i have some segmentation fault's.

doesn't work :mad:

- Crosscompiling Mplayer1.02 (old version) there i have trouble to set VSCREENINFO. :mad:

So it takes time ;)

If anybody have some hints, about crosscompiling, feel free. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
I managed to compile a working (by working I mean no segfault :D ) version of SVN-r29796 with the following config:

./configure --enable-fbdev --host-cc=gcc --target=arm --cc=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc --as=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --ar=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ar --ranlib=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ranlib --enable-static

The resulting binary can be found here:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=142QK29B

Together we can solve this, sandmen :cool:

What we need now is a Dream user to confirm that audio works on that hardware...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sandmen:
@Djhg2000

you can play a video without sound?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
No, I get the VSCREENINFO error. It does decode video though if I use "-vo null -ao null", but what probably won't get us anywhere...

I've heard the VSCREENINFO problem is a kernel bug, can anyone confirm this?

I don't have the time to look into it now, but maybe we can make a patch to workaround the problem?

Edit:

It seems like this piece of code in libvo/vo_fbdev.c is causing the problem:

if (ioctl(fb_dev_fd, FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO, &fb_vinfo)) {
mp_msg(MSGT_VO, MSGL_ERR, "Can't get VSCREENINFO: %s\n", strerror(errno));
goto err_out;
}

These lines can be found at 685-688 in r29796.

The problem is that my C skills are very limited and I have no idea what "&fb_vinfo" should be... C coders please help?

Typing "ioctl FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO" returns "ioctl: too few arguments".

Typing "ioctl FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO 0" returns "cannot open FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO"

From the information I can gather, ioctl seems to be a tool to pass instructions directly to drivers?

Yeah, it finally seems like we're getting somewhere :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
I've tried this, "-ao oss:/dev/msm_pcm_out" gives "Can't set audio device /dev/msm_pcm_out to s16le output, trying s16le...".

"-ao pcm:file=/dev/msm_pcm_out" hangs MPlayer at the "Starting playback..." message.

"-ao pcm:file=/dev/msm_pcm_out -v" hangs MPlayer with the line "Increasing filtered audio buffer size from 0 to 65536".

So yes, it might be the right device, but I can't get it to work.

Perhaps you could download the binary and see if you get different results on a Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sandmen:
@Djhg2000

Did you get the "get VSCREENINFO" error or the "put VSCREENINFO"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
Wow, do I feel stupid :o

Of course it's the put VSCREEN error, here is the correct code from libvo/vo_fbdev.c:

if (ioctl(fb_dev_fd, FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, &fb_vinfo)) {
mp_msg(MSGT_VO, MSGL_ERR, "Can't put VSCREENINFO: %s\n", strerror(errno));
if (fb_tty_fd >= 0 && ioctl(fb_tty_fd, KDSETMODE, KD_TEXT) < 0) {
mp_msg(MSGT_VO, MSGL_ERR, "Can't restore text mode: %s\n", strerror(errno));
}
return 1;
}

This is at lines 814-820 in r29796.

It seems like the problem mostly remains the same.

However, I can't debug it properly (yet!) due to my lack of skills in C :confused: .

I'm making slow progress in understanding the real problem, but at least I'm learning some C while I'm doing it :D

Edit:

I've looked through the sources and I just can't figure it out:

static struct fb_var_screeninfo fb_vinfo;

means that fb_vinfo should look like fb_var_screeninfo, right?

But fb_var_screeninfo itself (defined in linux/fb.h) looks like this (copied directly form android kernel git tree):

struct fb_var_screeninfo {
__u32 xres;	/* visible resolution	*/
__u32 yres;
__u32 xres_virtual;	/* virtual resolution	*/
__u32 yres_virtual;
__u32 xoffset;	/* offset from virtual to visible */
__u32 yoffset;	/* resolution	*/

__u32 bits_per_pixel;	/* guess what	*/
__u32 grayscale;	/* != 0 Graylevels instead of colors */

struct fb_bitfield red;	/* bitfield in fb mem if true color, */
struct fb_bitfield green;	/* else only length is significant */
struct fb_bitfield blue;
struct fb_bitfield transp;	/* transparency	*/

__u32 nonstd;	/* != 0 Non standard pixel format */

__u32 activate;	/* see FB_ACTIVATE_*	*/

__u32 height;	/* height of picture in mm */
__u32 width;	/* width of picture in mm */

__u32 accel_flags;	/* (OBSOLETE) see fb_info.flags */

/* Timing: All values in pixclocks, except pixclock (of course) */
__u32 pixclock;	/* pixel clock in ps (pico seconds) */
__u32 left_margin;	/* time from sync to picture	*/
__u32 right_margin;	/* time from picture to sync	*/
__u32 upper_margin;	/* time from sync to picture	*/
__u32 lower_margin;
__u32 hsync_len;	/* length of horizontal sync	*/
__u32 vsync_len;	/* length of vertical sync	*/
__u32 sync;	/* see FB_SYNC_*	*/
__u32 vmode;	/* see FB_VMODE_*	*/
__u32 rotate;	/* angle we rotate counter clockwise */
__u32 reserved[5];	/* Reserved for future compatibility */
};

Which is identical to the same struct in Ubuntu's kernel tree?

My conclusion so far is that one of these parameters are unsupported by the HTC Magic's graphics driver, but not the HTC Dream graphics driver?

I have no idea why the driver would even differ between them; they both use the same graphics chip, don't they?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Jesterz:
I assume you have root ?

try

chmod o+rw /dev/msm_pcm_out
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
Already tried that, I usually use root when debugging inside of Android, but not even "chmod 777 /dev/msm_pcm_out" helps.

I noticed there might be some relevant libraries in android:

/lib//libaudio.so

/lib/libhardware.so

/lib/libhtc_acoustics.so

/lib/libmedia.so

/lib/libmm-adspsvc.so

/lib/libopencore_player.so

/lib/libsoundpool.so

/lib/bluez-plugin/audio.so

Surely at least one of these libraries can provide a way to output audio?

Except maybe that bluez thing :D

1: pcm is the way to go. If you run mplayer -ao help, does it list pcm?

2: you can try compiling mplayer along with support for a sound server like pulseaudio, which would mean that you would need to add that package too...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
Great, finally a Dream user (maybe thread should be moved to the Dream Development sub forum, as that's where people look for general android discussions).

Anyway, it's publicly available here:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=142QK29B

Version SVN-r29796 for now, will probably upgrade later and post link here.

Save it to a SD card and use 'sh mplayer mediafilegoeshere.example -ao oss:/dev/msm_pcm_out' and post the results here.

Since you have a HTC Dream, it would be great if you could confirm it working/broken without the '-ao oss:/dev/msm_pcm/out' part.

Thanks for your help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
We got oss, mpegpes, v4l2, null & pcm.

I have no idea why I compiled in mpegpes, but I'll probably remove all but the working one and null when we get that far ;) .

I've thought about alsa, but android seem to lack alsa anyway...

I highly doubt pulseaudio would perform well enough on a CPU this slow, it was designed with powerful x86 machines in mind so no wonder why :D .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krasimir:
result after "sh mplayer" :

mplayer: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
Oh yeah, I forgot...

Assuming you've got mplayer at root of sd card:

Do this to try mplayer

su
mount -o remount,exec -t vfat /dev/block//vold/179:1 /sdcard
sh /sdcard/mplayer

Do this to install mplayer

su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/mplayer /system/bin/
chmod 4755 /system/bin/mplayer

After install, you might want to reboot in order to make sure /system is remounted propertly.

Hint:

If available, use bash instead of sh, that way error messages are easier to understand :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krasimir:
Using bash, mounting without errors, but after execute "sh mplayer" error is the same mplayer: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

i'm doing something wrong?

@Djhg2000

I found a small dirty hack for "Can't put VSCREENINFO" error, now i can play video's.:)

But i think the output is to slow. :o

Here my doing.

1. checkout mplayer svn.

2. change in vo_fbdev.c /dev/fb0 to /dev/graphics/fb0

3. change

fb_vinfo.yres_virtual = fb_vinfo.yres;

to

fb_vinfo.yres_virtual = fb_vinfo.yres * 2;

in line 808 and 850

4.

./configure --enable-fbdev --host-cc=gcc --target=arm-linux --cc=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc --as=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-as --ar=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ar --ranlib=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ranlib --enable-static --disable-dvdnav --disable-dvdread-internal --disable-libdvdcss-internal

5. make

Play movie :D

So, now we need a guy how know something about refresh the screen, or else.

Start mplayer with:

./mplayer -vo fbdev -nosound vf rotate=2 test.mp4
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Djhg2000:
For some reason it doesn't work for me either, I must have screwed up somewhere.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sandmen:

copy the file to /data folder.

then chmod 777 to mplayer.

than you can execute the program.
