Thanks for the info. Do you use the same igo8 version? Maybe ill try a hard reset of my HD2 later, maybe some of my mods prevent TTS from working.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] methree:
I also can't get TTS to work on my Igo8, after some research I just thought it wasn't possible on the HD2.

pitjes could you let me know which version of Igo8 you are using and which voice works? Much appreciated...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] -Vulture-:
Hey there: I made some progress. After a hard reset everything worked including TTS in igo8. So i tried uninstalling some of my programs, mods and so on...it was Dutty's Taskmanager which caused the trouble. After uninstallation TTS works fine.

Same problem with the X2 task manager. Killing the taskmanager executable file with another task manager...and TTS works again...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] methree:
Very interesting, I also have Dutty's Taskmanager running and can't get TTS working. However I would probably rather have the taskmanager than have TTS...

Decisions... decisions... :confused:

How to get maps into IGO 8? Where to get? When i open IGO 8 my HD cant find the mapfiles
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] -Vulture-:
Try the one from X2...works the same way as duttys, but TTS works sometimes when the task manager is running. But it works ALWAYS when you kill the exe of the X2 task manager, even without a soft reset.

I use IGOAmigo 8.4.2.95590 voices tts v3.0a/Amigo fihmq and dutty's with no problems :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pitjes:
Hello,

I am using Duttys Taskmanger too and it is working. But when I use s2p it doesent work. After a hardreset it works again. I think some apps or tweaks disturb TTS.

My version 8.3.4

pitjes
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] methree:
After a little research it seems the TTS requires ALOT of memory, so anything running in the background effects it I guess...

Will try X2 later to see if it helps.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] -Vulture-:
Yeah thats true. But my old omnia worked with igo very well and the HD2 has even more memory...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pitjes:
Happy new year at all,

I uninstalled Dutty´s Taskmanager. I opend a lot of apps. S2p, Solitaire, Bubbles, taskmanager, active sync and the calculator. Then I opend igo8 and tested TTS, I was surprised. It was working. So it seems there is a conflict between Dutty´s taskmanager with other open apps and IGO8 tts. After Softreset Dutty´s isn´t open with any apps and that the thing why IGO8 tts is now working.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] BigE:
igo8 and TTS

Folks,

TTS requiers only 78M free memory. Should not be a problem for HD2 to get there, even if some other apps are running. I run iGO (latest 8.3.4) with no issues. i actually run it on HD and HD2. please make sure your sys.txt file contains the right memory management for it.

under [tts] :

tts_buffer=131072

(check the sys.txt in the program files/iGO8 . Changing the one on the SD card makes no difference, unless you re-install)

bigE
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] -Vulture-:
Yeah i know that, im working with iGO8 for over a year now ;) . I tried a lot of sys.txt's, none of them worked. Still, after a soft reset TTS works, a couple of "usage minutes" later its dead. I just upgraded to ROM 1.48, still the same behaviour.

And Duttys Taskmanager is killing TTS completely on my device, at least with the old 1.43 ROM.

Another strange thing: After a soft reset TTS works UNTIL i play a song with the sense music player. After that its dead. Playing music with Coreplayer, Nitrogen prior testing TTS after a soft reset DOES NOT kill TTS. I guess its something related to sense using the loudspeaker in some ways...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] toyjeep:
I've got the same issue!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mideel:
guys,

I'm running a german 1.61 rom, got igo 8.3.2, my sys.txt is showing the same memory-setting as suggested here in this thread. Touch X Taskmanager is installed (downloaded it from the sticky sense tweaks and cabs thread). My TTS is working. Got approx. 180mb free memory. So I can not confirm, that the problem is withing the taskmanager.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] toyjeep:
Now run a music by the sense tab, and try again Igo8 TTS

I've the same taskmanager
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] -Vulture-:
Yeah, would be very interesting to know. And for your info, my igo is 8.3.4.102680...maybe i should try an older version...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] toyjeep:
Like my 8.3.4.102680

I've tried even reset LEO, open IGO and TTS ok.

Closed IGO and Start again and OK

Reset LEO, open music in sense and IGO TTS fails

Uncheck HTC Sense from today and run IGO, TTS fails

Reset again and everything ok

Hello.

Is there a possibiliy to make e backup of an installed rom? I'd like to flash for testing another rom, but the one I actualy have like me.

I'd like to extract the current rom so in the future I can flash again it and have all settings and programs already installed and configured.

Is possibile? If yes how?

If you have flashed then you have the *.nbh file... This is the rom file and with this you can flash as many times as you want!

Sorry for my english

2 Options to do this:

1) find your stock Rom <<HERE>> ....save it and also right down your SPL in bootloader so that you can come back to it <<HERE>> Post #1 to get your HARD SPL and POST #2 to get your device back to stock.

2) Dumping Your Rom.......<<HERE>>...in POST #3.

Hello guys,

I noticed something strange this morning, my phone was simply dead... no response whatsoever.

Battery was 90% charged before I went to sleep, but I thought that maybe I had active data connection and that drained my battery. Anyway I plugged in charger... orange LED indicator lit up but phone would still not turn on.

Finally removing battery and waiting 10 sec helped.

Has anyone experienced that as well?

Also I didn't have any 3rd party apps runing in background and I'm with stock rom... any ideas guys?

Regards

Pete
[HD2 General] MasterTP:
Had this happen to me yesterday, I just had to soft-reset the device with the re-reset button and it rebooted. In my case it may be related to .NET 3.5 and BSB Tweaks which I had just installed for the first time and was using to tweak some stuff. It never happened before (more than 1 month of use).
[HD2 General] petexx:
Damn... this is a bit scary... I mean what If you are waiting for an important phone call and your phone is simpy off?:/

In my case I did not install any 3rd party apps apart from palringo and spb wireless monitor... no tweaks anyway:/

Hopefully it won't happen again.
[HD2 General] __BlackEyed__:
The same thing happened to me 2 hours ago. Absolutely no idea why. Only removing the battery helped.
[HD2 General] ChefChaudart:
There are already threads about this. Please search before posting ...
[HD2 General] regi7:
since i have a Leo Rom on my HD (1) i had this problem too. So i think there is a bug in Software.
[HD2 General] Filipek88:
Same happened to me guys... Also after installing BsB tweaks 1.6 and changing some things...

I think I know where the problem might be, because my green led light was flashing when I tried to unlock my phone...

I had changed the led flash light blinking time to unlimited and I am pretty sure this was the cause of it, because it happened two times to me, both of the times the flash light was blinking but I couldn't get a response from my phone!

I've turned that off now and hope it will help cause I was awake 1 hour too late today!

Guys,

Again, there is already a Topic which covers this here.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Cret:
Last night I tried to play a video on my phone with Coreplayer (v1.5) and whilst it

used to

work perfectly and play videos REALLY well, it was now awful quality. Was as if the settings for video had reset to default so I tried changing them (smoothing and GDI or Directdraw output) but it keeps making the program crash when I try this, or immediately afterwards.

I've reinstalled Coreplayer (tried 1.3 and 1.5) and it just keeps crashing when I change the output settings, except for once when it let me change them but was still very jerky video, and then it crashed anyway a couple of seconds later. This is using video files that HAVE played fine in the past.

I've removed S2U2 again and rebooted as I had just installed it the day before, then reinstalled Coreplayer again and still get the same issues. It just seems incapbale of playing video properly now for some reason. I know the settings that work well for it as I did have it working perfectly before, but it just crashes now if I try changing them. :(

I can't think of anything else that I've added recently which may cause this. Not sure what else to check but there must be something I've changed on the phone that's caused this?

Videos work well if I play them by double tapping them in Total Commander, but silly as it sounds I don't know what player this is using to play them! It's not wmp anyway.

Looks like an HTC player maybe but I can't find an actual video player in winmo apart from WMP. There must be a place in the start menu somewhere for this player but I can't find it. It's not in the Multimedia folder in the start menu either so I'm confused!

Annoying because I'm halfway through a film this morning and after going back to home screen, I now don't know how to resume playback without restarting and trying to find the place I was at.

Any ideas? I've looked at other coreplayer related threads but they all seem to be along the lines of just the output settings being wrong and I got no results when I searched for the words coreplayer & crash.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jibreil:

You sure it is 1.5? Can't find a hint anywhere!

Duh.. ok, try the 1.3.6 yet?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ianjd:
Thought I was the only one to see this problem, though it did occur with previous HTC devices and Coreplayer for me. Occasionally the database file (Application Data\Coreplayer\library.db) seems to get corrupted (I think when Coreplayer is running, you attach the device to a PC in USB disk mode and say yes to a prompted database rebuild). If you delete the library.db file with File Explorer or an equivalent program. it should rebuild it OK. Quite annoyingly, this file doesn't get deleted when Coreplayer is uninstalled, so an uninstall/reinstall doesn't resolve this.
[Off-topic] leobox1:
thanks... this is with regards to windows PC..
[Off-topic] leobox1:
anyoneeee?
[Off-topic] Rudegar:
don't even think it's possible

most games blt directly into the framebuffer and bypass everything real windows

so overlays are not an option

so all you got is the program could try and blt it's clock text on the framebuffer very often this would require a good deal of cpu power compared to it just showing the time

and if the game it's suppose to access's framebuffer is locked by the game it's not possible at all

I once made a vb6 app that painted a red dot on the center of the screen, and that worked with games so yeah its possible :)

[Off-topic] Kristaps-K9-Lv:
Its possible -- I remember that there were some apps that are like Vindows Vista Widgets and display clock on the desktop in XP -- maybe some of these work in games(set them to be on top of other apps)!!!!

About the framebuffer things... fraps (the game recorder) overlays stuff on the screen, so it should be possible, and it would be a great idea!

I just installed the app..I'll give it a whirl tomorrow outside. I did a test recording indoors and I noticed something weird.. the video doesn't show what I'm looking at, it shows everything rotated 90 degrees.But the video that gets uploaded to the site looks fine.

edit: Have you checked Qik? They're kinda your competition..they don't emphasis location as much, but it's an option there too.

Works fine on my Liquid :-) A bit lag on the video.
[Android Apps and Games] Phil Bishop:
Thanks for the feedback.

Could post details of which Android phone you tested on please and also if you have cooked or the OEM ROM?

On the Tattoo when you rotate the phone the video view rotates too, however, I did code both the broadcast and record screens to stay in portrait mode, which could be the cause of the problem you reported.
[Android Apps and Games] Phil Bishop:
I'll try to give you a couple of examples:

The broadcast option is intended to be used for live tracking, for example, a phone mounted in a car and broadcasting can be tracked and viewed live on the web by other people.

Here's a link to how the US Navy used the app for asset tracking.

http://www.microsoft.com/casestudies/Case_Study_Detail.aspx?casestudyid=4000005831

The record option is generally used by people for social media - here's a good example from the website

http://www.ix-m.com/gps?movieID=20713_08122009114312

Hope that helps?
[Android Apps and Games] B1ny:
Its exactly the same on my Liquid, with 1.6
[Android Apps and Games] Phil Bishop:
I've uploaded v1.1 which might fix this - please give it a try when you have time.

The new version is not fixed in portrait mode, so I am hoping you will get the default camera rotation - fingers crossed.

Caveat: on the Tattoo when you rotate the phone during a recording or broadcast it terminates it, so best to say either in portrait or landscape until I can resolve both issues :)
[Android Apps and Games] B1ny:
The GPS doesn't work on my Liquid.

I get fix and everything is ok when I go into "GPS - Enabled".

But when I start to record either in "Broadcast" or in "Record" mode, it loose fix after about 15 seconds.

And when I check the recordings it seems that the GPS data freezes at the start of the recordings, since the speed doesn't seem to change.
[Android Apps and Games] B1ny:
V1.1 seem to have fixed my GPS bug.

But the 90 degree rotation of what I see on my display is still there. As long as I keep the phone in portrait position the recording comes out correct on the web page. Will go out for another test drive now to be sure it keeps the GPS fix, and check if it updates the GPS data while I drive.

And the background is white on my Liquid now in v1.1, then its impossible for me to see which file I have marked in the Geocast folder.

Edit: nope, still the same GPS problems, can not keep fix.
[Android Apps and Games] Phil Bishop:
Thanks for feedback above and also for your post #13.

FYI I've coded the app to drop the GPS connection after start-up to save on battery usage, so when you select broadcast or record it will re-initialize the GPS receiver, which depending on weather conditions etc, could take a while to get a fix.

In the Windows Mobile version we have an option "GPS always on", which might help (if I added that), but that doesn't help if the GPS receiver cannot fix on enough satellites (less than about 5 and you can get some random locations)

[edit] explaination about the number of satellites required for an acurate GPS location - if there are less than 3, then your location data might not change or be quite random - 4 to 7 satellites and you get resaonable accuracy ~10 satellites and then it's pretty acurate on the map.
[Android Apps and Games] B1ny:
I don't think this is the case. Every other program I use gives exact location and speed, at the same locations as your program looses fix.

Your program also takes very long time, and sometime can't regain fix at all until I turn it of and restart it. So it must be a bug.

The Liquid also have very good GPS receiver(much better than the one on the Hero), and also have A-GPS so it get fix very fast.

If the problem is that you have set the limit for how many satellites it need to approve it as good enough for your program, then at least it shouldn't affect the other GPS programs I have running at the same time.

After your program messes up my GPS, the other programs take a very long time to regain fix after I have shut down your program.

So as I said it must be a bug, and if its not then its useless since you can only use it as a video recorder, not a logger since the location you get on the map jumps all over the place, and the speed recordings show everything from N/A to 1000 kmh.
[Android Apps and Games] Phil Bishop:
Yes, sorry it probably is a bug in the beta, but it does works fine on the Tattoo and as that is the only Android phone I have to test with I posted the link here to try and get some feedback to improve the app for other phones.

FYI there is no code in the app explicitly setting a limit on the number of satellites - my previous comment was generic about GPS, the higher the number of satellites the receiver aquires the more acturate the positioning is.

For example on the Windows Mobile version of the app it shows you on the website how many satellites the receiver has aquired throughout the tracking -- I'll need to delve into the Android APIs to see if that is possible to add to the app and that might help with debugging problems like this.

Many thanks for the feedback.
[Android Apps and Games] B1ny:
Ok, and if more guys can test it out on other devices maybe that can help too. I am subscribing to this thread and will test out a new version as soon as you have one out.

My girlfriend is using the Hero now and I don't have access to it until friday, but I will ask if she can download and test it on that.
[Android Apps and Games] Phil Bishop:
Thanks - I think the next thing for me to concentrate on is the GPS issue, because you say the app is useless if that doesn't work correctly on all Android devices :(

I'll upload a new build tomorrow with some additional GPS info displayed so we can see what happens on your phone - from looking at the API I will be able to display the accuracy (in meters) that the receiver is returning - but I can't see anything in the location API that gives the satellite count.
[Android Apps and Games] hybridb:
There's an app called GPS Status that shows you how many satellites you are connected to (it shows position in a radar view and also the count). I don't know if the source code for it is available, but maybe looking at that app will be helpful to you.
[Android Apps and Games] B1ny:
GPSTest and Tricorder also show number of satellites.
