I'm new to the workings of the RC E100.

Could some kind soul please explain the connections for this item?

If I'm reading this correctly, does it connect directly into the micro USB port (with adapter if it works) but how does it then pick up the Music/Phone call data if it is not connected to the Audio Jack (or is it a split connection with one to the USB port & one to the 3.5 Audio Jack)?
[HD2 Accessories] chrcad:
I don't think it will work, because the mini USB cable from the RC E100 has a special configuration (cable/pin). So i think that a convertor won't work.

Dearest fellow hd2-owners,

I am searching a couple of days to a wired handsfree headset with music control for my HTC HD2. Unfortunately, i cannot find one, besides the original included by the phone, wich doesn't support exchangeable earphones.

The RC e100 is just what i'm looking for.

Can anybody tell me if it is possible with a cable between it:

3.5 mm to mini usb:

If not, can anybody tell me if there is a alternative wired handsfree headset with music control, which is supported by htc hd2... ???

Thanks ..

Kindly Regards M.
[HD2 Accessories] m.dogan21:
For further explaination:

With music control, i mean: song forward, song backward, volume etc..

Answer call / hangup

Thanks ..

I asked htc support if rc e 100 would work with mini to micro adapter and they told me that it won't been working correctly.

They also told me that something comparable to rc e100 won't be in sail soon for micro usb devices. :(
[HD2 Accessories] lilkrim:
This is a JOKE. I have the HTC desire, and the headphones that come boxed are horrible. When you finally fit them in your ear they hurt after 5 seconds. Why would you not have a socket in the damn media control bit? Every Nokia phone i have ever had comes with this basic feature.. allowing you to connect your own ear buds to the multifunction remote control.

so in this case, I’m going to have to cut up the headphones that came with the desire and attach a 3.5 socket, allowing me to connect my sennheisers and giving me the ability to control the music player /sigh GG htc. you build a sweet phone but gimp its audio playback all because u didn’t want to spend the 1 cent it would have cost to put a socket in the damn headset attachment, and not even bothering to offer an accessory.

I should point out that the headset that comes with the desire is not micro usb, but rather a 3.5 plug. It allows play, pause, skip, answer and has a mic.
[HD2 Accessories] -BA-:
I am going to jump on the bandwagon on this one too and comment on how disgraceful it is that accessories aren't interchangeable and that nothing similar is being devised for the newer generation of phones. The headset is one of the failing features of HTC units and a good quality remote would be the answer to just let people use whatever IEMs, heaphones they want.
[HD2 Accessories] R-P:
"Luckily" my right headphone that came with it is broken already. It may have been from the start, it sounds horrible like it's scraping its voice coil and I was about to order the RC E100 when running into this thread... Thanks for saving me :).

I will have no choice and no reservation to cut the earbuds off and mount a 3.5mm socket to it:D. I may even go and experiment if HTC added some not-yet implemented resistorvalues for a future remote control, as I did do some checks and it seems the remote on the standard headphone is a simple resistor network like e.g a Sony RM-X4S (search for panuworld and RM-X4S to see a schematic) caraudio wired remote. I wouldn't put it past them to actually have the volume-control resistor values programmed into the HD2, but simply not implemented in any accessory yet.

A happy but sometimes also disillusioned HTC HD2 owner. Next stop: voice dialing... (last I looked that wasn't solved yet either, but I've been ill so didn't actively look for a couple of months, that's also the reason I didn't get into the wired remote resistor values any further. I did measure the existing values on the standard headset remote and actually have an RM-X4S at home that might get me started with some standard values (or drawers full of other resistors))

Damn, this thread has got me excited, I wanna go home and figure this out! (They'll let me out the hospital on Thursday, but please let me know if someone somewhere has already done this work, cannot believe I would be the first to dive into this!!! "This" being the mapping of the resistor values of the OEM headphone headset remote and searching for extra resistorvalues that might have different functions (10 minutes work in mapping the values, 15 minutes putting it in writing and posting it here and another hour to butcher my headset beyond repair and hook up the RM-X4S to it, guess I might have to sacrifice my headset for science unless someone has a broken one they want to ship me, should have picked up the run-over Nokia headset I saw on the ground a few weeks back that had a 4 pin 3.5mm connector, that's all I need for hooking up other resistorvalues...Oh, I'll figure something out or indeed butcher it and ask the company to buy me a new one, as mine IS actually broken. They'll survive the extra 9€ on top of having to pay me while I am out of the running for half a year due to the illness...)

BTW, this thread is old, and there is a micro-phone 3.5mm input super simple remote available, but it does less than the OEM headset apart from you being able to plug in your own headphone. HTC HD2 Audio Adaptor for 3.5mm to 3.5mm HS U350 (with Stereo Headset + HTC Logo, Retail Pack) for 21 € That's more money than a RC E100 with a LOT less functionality: good call HTC:confused:

RC e100 via adaptor to HD2 possible?

Hello!

There is another threat (german only) which deals with connecting the RC e100 via adaptor to the HD2:

http://www.pocketpc.ch/android-allgemein/118188-htc-rc-e-100-headset.html

Maybe the following idea is totally nonsense, please let me know if I'm wrong:

The RC e100 apparently uses the extendedUSB version of miniUSB.

Does anyone know if the HD2's micro USB provides extendedUSB functionality as well?

Can anyone provide a circuit diagram to modify a mini to micro usb adaptor or cable 'USB-Adapter - 5-polig Micro-USB Typ B (M) - Mini-USB, Typ B (W)' to use the extendedUSB functionality of HD2 for the RC e100?

Thanks for your reply!
[HD2 Accessories] R-P:
Took quite a while for me to test, but using an RM4-XS (or something) does NOT work on the inputs of the HD2/Leo. So it seems the resistor values of this Sony car-audio remote do not trigger any 'hidden' functions, so it is likely the OEM remote on the headphone is all the functionality you are going to get.

Sorry about getting peoples hopes up...:(

Interesting question. Maybe also usefull for gamers on Topaz who misses hardwarebuttons.

I'm not a gamer, but I also never use the zoombar. So, another function would be a good deal... ;)

I have a 4gb card with 450mb(or something like that) assigned to A2SD. I did the A2Sd with the one click system in the recovery menu but now i would like to put in a linux swap partition so my G1 can have access to more ram. How would i go about this. i have seen other tutorials do it but they all did A2SD and the linux all in one swoop. I just want to do linux-swap. Thanks!

all i really need is someone to direct me to a tutorial, btw im running the latest cyanogen build.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsipma:
Just a few days ago, I did the same thing. After seriously bricking my phone, I realized how to do it. I found it easiest to just back up everything on your sd card, then follow the instructions at

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Apps2SD

from the beginning. Then just pull everything back. The first boot up took a while, but it works great.

I tried just adding the partition, but it locked my phone at the boot screen. I had to do it this way to get my phone functional.

Hey guys sorry for producing a new thread but am excited at my finding

i am a huge movie buff and i use my tp2 to watch .avi files

problem was i had to switch off tf3d to use core player(on all 6.5 builds, was playing ok in 6.1 stock roms)

i tried all new roms (all latest builds 6.5.#)

none of them played coreplayer without switching off the tf3d/manila

but the great news is today i flashed energy latest dec4 28008 build and to my utter surprise it plays coreplayer smooth like butter even with manila(that too 2.5 leo build) on!!!!!!

Plz share ur experience!

Is it just me or anyone else also finding this sweet thing!!!!!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
No video lovers here???

no one has marked this????

or i am wrong in observing???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dario69:
Still a problem. Same videos lag after launching Coreplayer. With TF3D off they don't lag at all.

Same rom you are running.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
just watched my sisters keeper

1hr 50mins, 700mb

full movie with tf3d on

battery came down from 95 to 56pc

i think its good too

dont know how it only happened on my set!!!

i tried switching off n on many times benchmarks improve by 1-3pc with tf3d on!!!!!!

its insane really!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Damager:
Running the latest Energy ROM and dropping 40% of the frames on an xvid files.

Any suggestions on improving this apart from re encoding which i absolutely hate doing!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dario69:
Well, in the past I was criticized for not biting the bullet and re-encoding for this particular issue but I see no reason to recreate my video collection when all I need to do is switch the Home screen from TF3D to Windows Default. It still stinks but I am already re-encoding just for the Qualcomm chip problems - even with Coreplayer the chip still isn't as good as the old Xscale chips.

Tried the most current and previous version of Coreplayer. Still choppy play with TF3D. Oh well, NRG are still the best. I don't expect him to fix HTC issues.

My suggestion. Just turn off TF3D. And if you are still experiencing issues re-encode to something like 512x384 or 640x360 depending on what you are trying to play. I see the least amount of skipped frames with these two settings. Bit rates under 1400kbps. From my experience the Qualcomm flavored phones are more sensitive to frame size than bit rate. But that is just my observation. I am sure others would disagree.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
best is to encode into .mp4 format,tat way u can play almost any non HD size with tf3d on!!

bcoz the tf3d itself is the only program that uses hardware acc from the qualcomm chip!!

so tf3d wud recognise ur file nd play it smoothly in Photos n videos section!!

but i hate re encoding!

still dont know wat i installed tat z making coreplayer work on my tp2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
now i am afraid to flash again!!!! coz i may lose the funtion!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kmx:
Can you upload the version of core player you're using. I have a bunch of stuff I'd like to watch also. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dario69:
Good point actually. What version of Coreplayer are you using? Also, did you install any additional video drivers afterwards? Stupid question, I am sure you would have indicated this but I want to get to the bottom of this.

And finally, what video settings do you have? Maybe the smarter this is to copy your config.xml file from Application data\Coreplayer folder and post it up - remove any serial number info first.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
yahoooooo

got it

the latest rom 28014 build has done it finally!!!!

core player remains fluid without lagging even with tf3d on

yes i tried all the 28014 roms to confirm this

(nrg 28014, rre 28014 tested)

for me rre 28014 is best looking and free memory is great

nrg used to occupy loads of space so kudos to the rre rom maker!!!!

thank you
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dario69:
Not on my end. Using 28014 Energyrom, 2.1 version. Are you using 2.5 or 2.1? I see the same lag after selecting a second video. It doesn't matter what video after that. Same problem. Newer builds. I don't see this getting fixed anytime soon at this point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
i am using rre rom with manila 2.1

i hav reflashed thrice to confirm!!!

i hav also loaded the TCPMP techvision also(though its little laggy than coreplayer but still gives more control and benchmarks are close to 100%)

i checked with nrg rom once but mine worked fine!!

but rre rom being wayyyyyyyy better than NRGs bloated rom, i switched to rre again

everything is smooth with 262mb storage memory free!!!

I think i will be away from flashing for few days
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ayaskant12:
the coreplayer benchmarks 624*254 700mb file at 126% with qtv overlay as video driver

tcpmp benchmarks in rawframe buffer mode at 105%

hope it helps

(i select fit best or sometimes 100% zoom coz most files at stretch to full screen or fit best may become laggy) but IMHO its wayyyyy better than previous versions,

actually it was my first rre rom, i was sticking to nrg and others for long but nrg's icons seem very small, and against the black background it was difficult to spot
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dario69:
Thanks for the info. It does help actually. The fact that your video runs at 105% with tcpmp tells me that it should run decent with Coreplayer. So as to keep this response short and to the point - tcpmp never played my videos well at all. But before this problem popped up the videos ran with no skipped frames on Coreplayer. They still do on my Pure.

But with the introduction of wm6.5, TFD3 on the Tilt2 they run like crap and still do. But I have gotten used to using the mortscript solution which turns off TF3D. They run just fine with that workaround.

I think 28014 did help things a bit. I can see that as well but the lag still persists with my videos. Your bit rate probably helps and the resolution us under 640 horizontal and 360 vertical which helps as well. I noticed with the QTv settings even 640x480 lags like crazy. Since getting my Fuze I re-encode my videos down to 512x384 or 640 or less for widescreen variants.

I like the RRE roms but I ran memory issues with his recent roms which is odd because the energy rom's aren't too conservative with memory either. I also like NRG's choice of programs. Bloated? Yes. But my kind of bloat.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dario69:
I forgot to mention this in my last post. The dead giveaway that this issue isn't truly resolved is the Dither option. With TFD3 the Dither option can be checked or unchecked. With TFD3 off you cannot do this. That is the normal behavior of the QTv settings - at least all of the Qualcomm phones I have owned. If it was working the Dither option would not be available even with TF3D on. As speculated before TF3D is hijacking the video drivers on the TP2 only.

CorePlayer + Manila Solution?

OK, I too have had the same problem, needed to switch off Manila, but then I tried the following tweak and so far coreplayer has played smoothly every time I've tried, with Manila enabled and even after the phone has been one for some time with lots of apps opening and closing.

The tweak, which I briefly saw elsewhere, is to set the HTC Resources shared memory to 0 by changing the following registry key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ResProxy]

"ShareMemSize"=dword:00000000

I forgot what the default value was, but it was very large. Reboot, of course, after making this tweak. Back up your old value to play it safe. I have not seen any adverse affects from doing this, and I do seem to have a little more memory available in general, and like I said, so far Coreplayer is working very nicely after making this change. YMMV of course.

Did anyone find out how to use conference dialing numbers with passcodes in calendar events?

Acording to the manual and and new WM6.5 options it is possible to have the phone dial a conference and enter the password if you put it in the body of a calendar event.

For some reason it does not work for me.

If I put in a number like 555-12345p11111# the HD2 breaks it up and shows/dials only 555-12345 if I press the green button on a reminder.

I have not flashed any custom roms from here, all that has been done is the phone has been updated to the latest HTC ROM they offered.

Just to clarify (And no offence) I'm almost done my HND in Computer Networking, and I've been repairing computers and servers since about 14. It is the phone which is faulty =/ I really wish it was the cable though. I have tried everything, it is definately the phone.

I have contacted the eBay seller, and he's willing to swap the handset for another, but tbh if I could simply update the ROM with a newer Stock ROM I'd be happy without the USB port.
[HTC Vox] tobbbie:
I doubt it that the device has a defective electronic component. Most probably the wiggling of the USB when attaching/detaching the cable has over time broken the soldering on the PBA. But first control the socket for dirt or bended or incomplete contacts.

If you are not a noob what delicate stuff is concerned, disassemble the device and re-solder all contacts of the USB socket.
