Sounds like a hardware issue man, you may be SOL... You can try wiping everything, and re-flashing cyanogen 4.2.5, and see if that helps your issue.

Also, try underclocking your CPU, to help it not overheat as much, as that seems to be what your saying is causing the problem.

Leme know how that works out.

Try flashing a build that did not freeze for you, and stick on it for at least a week or two. If that build starts to freeze, it may be hardware.

Hi everybody! This is my first post here!I'm new here on xda, so fist of all I just congrat. for all roms and other cool stuff,- Thread!

Well, my problem is the next:

I'd have a new rom for my Artemis. e.g a WWE wm 6.5 with the latest m2d.

I've no found rom, which contains HTC opal (that blue theme with digital clock and cool weather stuff:cool:) or HTC diamond (that black theme with digital clock and cool weather stuff:)) theme.

I've found skins for m2d both the opal and diamond. But doesn't work.

So, I wanna install a rom that contanins diamond or opal skin.(or just a rom that works with skinz!)

mbarvian's diamond skin is very cool to me, but my rom (which 6.5 and contains m2d) didn't like it.:(

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenoble06:
Hey!

This might not be the best place to ask this question (a Hero forum) but here goes.

My current contract runs out beginning of 2010 (UK) and I want to get an Android phone next. So question is do i get a Hero or wait to see if the Moto Droid or SE Racheal come out in the UK before 2010?

Ive been waiting for ages for my current contract to expire so I'm tempted to rush and get a Hero but would that me a mistake!?

Any takers?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecodemonk:
If you're on the fence, it might just as well be worth it to wait and see what the other one is like so you never have any doubts. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I concur.

The second you upgrade your phone and take out a new contract, you've effectively made yourself obsolete because the next best thing is always just around the corner.

I got my Hero in July when they first came out, so I'm nearly 6 months down the line, but I'm still happy.

However, if I was in your position, I would probably wait 3 or 4 months to see what happens next because whilst I love my Hero, it is old news even now to a certain extent. I can definitely see HTC releasing a Snapdragon based Android device in the 1st half of 2010, so I would wait if I were you.

[G1 Android Development] marixsmith:
according to http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/15/samsung-unveils-android-equipped-galaxy-spica-i5700/

the new spica comes equipped with built in divx support. Is this a codec or is it an app that needs ported?

Anyone have any idea?
[G1 Android Development] Mi|enko:
Nobody knows yet, as there hasn't been a dump from this device made available yet. Also, this should probably be moved to the Q&A area (or general) until there's something development wise that can happen.
[G1 Android Development] donovanbrock:
What about the LG Eve dump that popped up a few days ago? Now I'm no dev, but I did a little bit of peeking around in it, and there is a bunch of stuff referencing DivX and mpeg4, h264, etc.

Am I wrong in assuming something can be done with those?
[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
Moot

Whether it's a program to be ported or a codec to be included plays no real part in the answer to your question. The simple fact of the matter is that the G1 is too underpowered to do justice to DivX, h.264 or any other high capacity codec. The Spica is coming out with an 800 MHz processor, enabling it to jump through graphical hoops that we can't.

I agree that either way, just codecs or a (hopefully) simple port of a program, that we can at least try watching DivX, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
[G1 Android Development] nyquildotorg:
I bet it's got the decoder in hardware. That'd be a much easier, cheaper way to do it.
[G1 Android Development] Sumanitu:
My 200mhz T-Mobile Wing with 64MB of ram did DivX just fine with TCPMP media player. The G1 can easily handle it if it can bypass the java interpreter.
[G1 Android Development] jmotyka:
Agreed, especialy if there swap running and other tweaks. Playback shouldn't be a problem but encoding and decoding would not be practical. But I guess we will see. But why not just encode to a format the g1 can handle that's what I do, so there is no need for other codec support.
[G1 Android Development] pentace:
The LG dump has divx support as well it looks like an entire media center, video editor and everything. From what i saw its hard coded libraries.

Libmmp_divxreg.so
[G1 Android Development] daveid:
My G1 plays back x.264 video just fine (all of my videos I encode for my phone are x.264 with AAC audio), and when I check on my PC (without hardware acceleration enabled) x.264 takes a little more juice than a similarly encoded MPEG4 ASP codec such as DivX or XviD would. Your argument is flawed.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
And how would playback without decoding the DivX video be carried out? :p

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] tenzin1:
Has anybody tried the yxflash app in the market? It does wmv pretty well and does do DivX video although not convinced how well. Sometimes it's kind of jerky but not sure if that's because it's the trial version. They want $20 on their web site for the full version and I'm not going to pay that without being sure it works all the time every time. But it still gives me hope that we will be able to play DivX on our G1s one day.

Have tried to play divx file- http://www.hpc.ru/soft/software.phtml?id=20980 it did, my htc magic didn't
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
viewing a "divx" file is simple;

1) you need to switch out the fourcc tag to one that is reconized properly (and compatible -- mpeg4-asp i.e. H263) since nobody in the real world has heard of or cares about "divx",

2) use a recognized CONTAINER format (i.e. 3gp)

3) stick to resolutions and bitrates and other encoding parameters that make sense for the particular device.

Note: The device HAS an mpeg4 decoder chip capable of mpeg4-asp (h263/divx) and mpeg4-avc (h264). The CPU is IRRELEVANT since the decoding is all done in a dedicated video decoder chip.
[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
Apologies. I did not realize the G1 had a dedicated chip for such things.
[G1 Android Development] 1wayjonny:
Even if it didnt have the mp4 decoder it still has enough power for divx, every windows phone I had has lower specs or the same processor and played them fine.

The G1 def has enough power I am not sure where you got the information, not being cocky but thats some bad information to spread around.

1Way
[G1 Android Development] fl3xo:
So, having some kind of app decoding h263 when fourcc is divx or dx5 ecc instead, the main problem reduces to the support of common PC "containers" like avi, i'm right?
[G1 Android Development] Paul22000:
Agreed.

My Windows Mobile 2003 Samsung SCH-i730 played any video file I threw at it flawlessly.

Flawlessly.

Saying that the G1 is too underpowered is just complete and utter misinformation.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
Every windoze phone you had also had a decoder chip. So what?
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
No, the trick is to simply *change* the fourcc to h263 and/or be able to RECOGNIZE divx AS h263. Adding in more DEMUXERS (not decoders) would also help with dealing with additional containers, HOWEVER, there really isn't much point in supporting avi, since it is a terrible container that doesn't take A/V synchronization into account, AND it is typically used for video's that are over the resolution and bitrate limits.

Note: there may be licensing issues when dealing with certain container formats. I suggest staying as far as possible away from anything that carries a microshaft label on it (like avi, wmv, etc.).
[G1 Android Development] 1wayjonny:
What? Man you do not even make sense pfff

The point was a phone with less or equal to hardware specs could play the video fine.

Oh and BTW you should also know that the Windows Mobile Platform never optimized ANYTHING for the decoders built in the phones.

Most recent windows phone for the past a few years has a 3D accelerator that was NEVER used nor optimized expect by a Sony game released for the xperia. (which other phone could run with the correct DLL copied over as well, showing microsoft was lazy on 3D acceleration)

So much for not using the decoders eh?

The point in case you missed it is that WITH or WITHOUT the decoder the G1 has enough power to play the video.

Please use google if you need spoon fed information ...
[G1 Android Development] Bedeadu:
Andorb can stream Divx format video files

I am not sure if this is helpful to anyone, I am typing this more out curiousity for myself. Not sure if you are familiar with the program AndOrb on the market. I believe someone did a quick port of the apple app "Orb". Anyways, I don't know how it works, but through the AndOrb app, I can stream all my divx videos shared from my PC. This app is very basic and don't think there are any plans for anyone working on it. It only streams video through Wifi Connection for me not 3G.

Again, i am bringing this up, because I don't know how it allows you to play divx video this way. Because it is going through Orbs propriety software, does this mean the phone doesn't care which type of format the video is?, is it not decoding anything?

I haven't come across an app for android as good as the apple version, but it seems to me this could be an alternative way to view divx files on your G1/Dream, again though, not too sure about how the process works.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
If it is playing files that you have stored on your computer, my bet would be that it is transcoding it before sending. First, doing so will reduce the data size, second, it will change into a format that is *for sure* supported by the device -- i.e. regardless of what the originating format is.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
You clearly have no idea what you're talking about and I'm not about to spend a huge amount of energy to enlighten you. I have given you the facts, and if they don't make sense to you, that is your problem.
[G1 Android Development] toca79:
Lg GW620 firmware dump is available, anyone knows how to proceed from this point on?
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
You should realize that your videos need to be transcoded *anyways* to support the resolution and bitrate constraints. If you're going to be doing that, then you might as well package the files in a supported container.

I *really* can't see *ANY* benefit to divx.

1) it is obsolete.

2) it is proprietary.

The likely reason why the later devices have added explicit support for the container and fourcc used by divx is because divx is a commercial product that wants to propagate itself -- therefore probably provided incentive to the manufacturers to do this. It is also possible that divx is being added because it *sounds cool* (i.e., when it was a top of the line encoding, it was very popular, so people remember it and think its good -- even though it is hopelessly obsolete).

My advise is to use H264 instead.
[G1 Android Development] toca79:
Divx support is good because you don't need to convert movies or video files downloaded from internet, as i'm able to do, right now, on my N900.

I don't always have time to convert movies in mp4 format, and be able to download them directly on the phone and watch them is really interesting to me.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
Only if they are already an extremely low resolution and bitrate, which is UNLIKELY.
[G1 Android Development] toca79:
So far i have no problem playing every movie i downloaded from internet on the n900, i don't even mind the bitrate or other stuff, only copied it in the cell and played it.

Believe me They were just perfect, smooth reproduction like on a pc, i think that the acer liquid and/or the milestone have the right hardware to do the same thing, and i hope this will be possible short, i love watching movies and tv episodes while i am on the train without having to convert them prior.
[G1 Android Development] marixsmith:
I'm curious what the phone can push. I'd also like to know if the divx support includes the xvid avi format. My understanding is that some compatability exists between mp4 and divx/xvid. If thats the case i'd love to be able to dump dvd rips from my computer to my phone without any transcoding. Typical dvd rips are 720x400 @ around 1100 kbps for video and mp3 or ac3 audio at around 300-400 Kbps. Is this something the g1 can handle? Anybody know?
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
Already gone over this;

xvid == divx == h263. Its all the same.

mp4 == container, which contains whatever kind of video you want.

The stumbling blocks preventing xvid or divx from playing are these;

1) container format (supported are mp4 and 3gp),

2) fourcc (supported are h263 and h264)

3) bitrate (low)

4) resolution (320x480)
[G1 Android Development] cashless:
I can vouch for this. I had an N800 with a TI OMAP2420 proc (the N900 has a ARM Cortex-A8 and a dedicated GPU) which played divx in mplayer smoothly without any problems at all.
[G1 Android Development] marixsmith:
Ok, so the samsung device adds container support alone? If it were ported it wouldn't resolve any other issues? What bitrate is the absolute limit for the g1? also if a resolution was greater than 320x480 it could be scaled down, would scaling have a large impact on total bitrate throughput?
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
It's not about whether or not the processor had enough power to do it or not. You can't say that the G1 can do it because phone's with less-powerful processors did it: the other phone's didn't really do it with their cpu's. They used hardware decoders. Which the G1 lacks. Therefore, there is waaay more to be done than a simple port in order to make it work on the dream. If you just managed to write an app that could decode it, it would be almost completely unusable. You'd have to have a very low-res, low-bitrate video to even come close to decoding it in real-time.
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
I'm not really sure why this thread won't die... we keep arguing about the theoretical possibility of dream hardware to handle divx, but no real development is going on, or even possible, here. Just give up, let it pass. Maybe some app could come to be that would convert divx to something playable, and save that new file to the sdcard, then play it... but even that would be extremely difficult to implement. And there's no way it could be done fast enough for real-time playback.
[G1 Android Development] toca79:
Maybe the G1 con't handle divx but what about acer liquid or motorola milestone?
[G1 Android Development] tenzin1:
Did anyone read my earlier post? There is an app out that plays divx.

It's called yxflash. Check it out. Still has bugs in it and apparently isn't

Compatable with the latest Cyan(4.2.7.1) but in the past it played several

Different resolution and bit rate divx files I copied over from my PC. Plays wmv

Too.
[G1 Android Development] toca79:
I read that app is really crappy, haven't tried it myself thou.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
What I said is that HTC DREAM can't decode it IN CPU for the same reason why those old wimo phones couldn't (and they certainly can't). It definitely *does* have the necessary hardware decoders to process H263 video (as did those old wimo phones, which is why the video played on them. It just doesn't have the necessary SOFTWARE DEMUXERS to handle the container or fourcc tag (which is the reason why the so-called "divx" *did* play on them), so 1) It can't generate the compressed video stream to send into the video decoder, and 2) It doesn't even know the video specifications to configure the video decoder.

SOFTWARE DEMUXERS take very little CPU (can do with software update).

SOFTWARE DECODING takes a HUGE amount of CPU (can be done for audio, not video).

HARDWARE DECODING takes no CPU (requires hardware decoder, present for video, not audio).

Simple thought:

If video decoding was so easy to do that a 328MHz ARM chip could handle it, then WHY do modern graphics cards contain DEDICATED VIDEO DECODE CIRCUITS? (I.e. AMD's UVD/XvBA, NVidia's VDPAU). Desktop/laptop processors are SO MUCH stronger than these little ARMs that anything that can be done by these little ARMs is *NEGLIGIBLE* to a desktop computer.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
Why do you bother posting if you haven't read the thread?
[G1 Android Development] toca79:
Why do you bother posting if you are not interested in Divx support?

i don't understand the problem, the new samsung i5700 and lg gw620 can handle divx so i was just asking if it is possible also on a liquid or milestone and maybe other android devices.
[G1 Android Development] 1wayjonny:
I kept telling them that but they don't listen lol

People are arguing technical aspects way to far past the original concept.

The G1 can play divx its as simple as that
