[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zdrux:
Why would anyone encode to a proprietary format like WMV? At least do H.264/MP4 which will provide with much better quality and smaller size. And there are plenty of free encoders on the net.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] curiousGeorge:
I don't think it's possible to avoid the 250ms skew with a general purpose encoding program. I don't think it's encoder-side at all--the TMOUS HD2 produces this audio skew (lip sync problem) on ALL audio it plays, from games to the stock Transformers videos.

I suggest you reexamine your video and see if you can't spot it--it's subtle, and you might not have seen it there before. I'm sure it's not a settings issue for me--if all programs, games, and videos (every video I put on here, some of which I didn't convert, some of which I play with Coreplayer, etc) all have the issue...and accross multiple ROMs, and other TMOUS customers have the same, it's a problem with the HD2. I suspect drivers.

I doubt any "converter" can fix the problem with our HD2's. All audio on the HD2 is 250ms delayed.

[Touch Pro CDMA] Fred Doolie:
You guys are geniuses but all the ROMs I've found so far have that ugly T3D in them or no graphic interface at all. Are there no other choices for interfaces? Yes, I know I can install something over that but isn't there one with something else already cooked-in to replace TFlo3D?

Thanks
[Touch Pro CDMA] egzthunder1:
The reason why chefs don't cook "extra" UIs in the roms is because everyone has a different preference or taste. Some people may like TF3D, while some others like SPB Shell, while some others like Wisbar, while some others like IPT, while some others like Androkkid, while some others like Winterface, while some others.... I guess you get my point by now :D

Long story short, it is very difficult to please everyone. If you do not like TF3D, simply deactivate it from the Home Addons settings page. You will see absolutely no difference if cooked in or not simply because it is cooked in the rom, which is space that you will not get anyways. Besides, many UIs are actually paid apps (ie. SPB), so if you get them cooked in a rom, you will only have it for 15-30 days before you have to get yourself a license.

I hope this helps to clarify a thing or two.
[Windows Phone 7 General] WhyBe:
I am interested in knowing what features you expected in WP7S OS that aren't there (yet).

These are already well established (in no particular order):

1) Copy and Paste

2) Full unrestricted multitasking

3) OS Skins (such as SPB and Sense)

4) File system access

5) Sideloading apps

6) Restriction-free app market

...what else??? :confused:

Please justify *****ing and moaning with substantive ideas or solutions

For starters, I was hoping to get system-wide Voice navigation. If this were integrated into the OS, all 3rd-party apps could take advantage of it. I would love to voice my text message replies instead of typing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
thats a good idea send that to the wp7 dev team, maybe somebody could add in as a app

whats missing tho is xbox live without real time multiplayer & there is no sending of messages to people on xbox either which is the most disappointing thing ive heard so far
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Lots of important APIs seem to be missing - i.e. you can't manipulate internet or bluetooth connections directly from your program (thus no realtime multiplayer for you), SNAPI and POOM seem to be missing, no Power Manager/hardware access, etc. I'm not 100% sure about these, it's just stuff I didn't find in the docs/emulator. If this is true, I'm having trouble imagining many useful apps beside fart ones. Native APIs would allow to circumvent these limitations, but they aren't available either.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
That doesn't make any sense...all you need to do to send someone a message on xbox is to log into MSN Live Messenger...Even if there is no MSN Live Messenger client, just use meebo.com to log into MSN Live Messenger, and send a message to anyone you want.

[HD2 General] Spike15:
I have a problem with rotation to landscape that cropped up a while back and I haven't gotten around to posting about it.

I use Artemis ROM, and a while ago upon updating to v2.5 I started to encounter this weird rotation issue (details later). I figured it was just an issue with that version of the ROM, so I waited. Plus I don't use landscape that much, so it wasn't an issue.

6 hours ago I flashed v6.0, and now I'm having the same issue still, so I don't think it's the ROM.

The issue is this: When I turn the phone on, everything is fine, for 6 hours to a day. After that whenever I turn the phone to rotate it to landscape (in any application under any circumstances until I reboot the phone) it'll rotate for ~1 second, and the flip back to portrait.

The device is still rotated to where it should be in landscape when this occurs.

I became suspicious that it was a problem with the accelerometer, so I experienced the problem, and then immediately played Teeter, and Teeter was 100% normal.

Any solutions, I'd really appreciate it, as it's bugging me now that it's cropped up in a much later version.
[HD2 General] spippo:

[HD2 General] Kalavere:
I did a hard reset a few days ago and had exactly the same problem when browsing Opera 9.7 in landscape. It would sit in landscape until I touched the screen to move it, then it would switch back to portrait immediately.

I recalibrated the G-sensor and did a soft reset and it's been fine ever since.
[HD2 General] Spike15:
Have you soft reset it since then?

Because the problem -- for me -- isn't there when I first power the device on, it appears sometime later and won't go away until I soft reset.

Other than that the ROM is perfect.

BTW, I switched to EnergyROM from Artemis, and the problem occurred again this morning...
[HD2 General] C0qRouge:
for me with artemis 7.0 same problem
[HD2 General] Scrtcwlvl:
Make sure a program that only works in portrait is not running in the background.

This happened to me when I figured out it was actually the Flashlight app running in the background still.

Try closing the programs you have in the background, if needed with a task manager.
[HD2 General] Taco123:
Maybe it comes from the Flashligt. Try to close the Flashligt with taskmanager.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Aye, multiple times, the recalibration and first soft reset fixed it for me and I haven't had the problem since.
[HD2 General] Spike15:
Thank-you so much!

Artemis 2.5 was where the Flashlight app was added -- before that I used TorchLight, which I'll going back to now -- and because of its long "warm up" (that stupid animation...amy way to disable that?) I would leave it open in the background.

I just tested, opening the Flashlight, trying the rotation -- which caused the problem -- then closing it and trying it -- which solved it.

Because I like landscape for the calculator and typing, this was crippling to me, now it's figured out and I can get back to loving my phone!

Does the nandroid only back up the software and settings -

If i just download the rom from HTC then that will put it back to the latest official rom wont it..

i was under the impression that a Original hero was only 1 rom away?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] KAwAtA:
You don't need a nandroid backup at all. I use it all the time though.

You just asked a question that Dan330 had already answered in his previous post... yes it backs up basically everything. There are a few things that it doesn't back up but they aren't too significant (They are left out to prevent further problems).

If you downloaded a rom from HTC well, Duh. Of course it will put it back to the official rom. If it's rootable, then you can just restore a nandroid backup if you wanna go back to what you had before. Hopefully the HTC rom doesn't prevent you from rooting otherwise you won't be able to.

What the heck do you mean Original Hero was 1 rom away? Huh?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] cbailey:
HTC Rom image will restore the rom.

A 'normal' data backup will store the data, ie drag from the SD card.

You can reinstall any marketplace apps from the marketplace.

The Google cloud will store calendar, contacts, mail, etc.

For the average user, nandroid is not necessary. But I understand the usefulness to a rom cooking enthusiast and the speed of a single backup. All the averages do not need to worry about nandroid though.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
thank you cbailey

and sorry KAwAtA i was rushing to work - and talking crap at the same time...

I never even thought that HTC would try and stop you from rooting the phone....

just always thought that having a unbranded HTC ment i can install any rom at any time, and still install the latest HTC Rom if i wanted.

Very New to Rooting. so i need a few weeks to catch up.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Lennyuk:
Nandroid takes like a "photo" of your phone at the exact time you did it and will rstore everything exactly like it was at that time, e.g. rom, data, apps EVERYTHING.

you should always do one before flashing or removing anything on your phone that you should not "officially" be doing as that way if something goes wrong you can easily get back to your working rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
Nandroid backup keeps installed apps aswel?... I was under the assumption that I needed to use Titanium or Mybackup Pro for that.

So just to clear up, if i dont mind losing contacts, sms and calender, but want to back up current ROM with apps and games, Nandroid is the one?...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Lennyuk:
Nandroid takes a complete image of your phone as it is, will restore it all exactly as it was at the time you backed it up.

if your looking to change roms then you need to use another app to backup your data and apps.

Hi Guys!

I am trying to root my nexus, unlocked it, installed the right usb drivers, I can see the phone and everything looks right.

Downloaded Superboot for ERE27 with himem enabled and ran this. no problem.

I put the img file on the SD card and when I boot the phone in Fastboot / Recovery it does not find and img files on the SD card.

I tried 2 different cards and also different img files.

When I do this I get first the message no images found than I see the droid with a triangle and a ! in it. - Have to pull the battery.

Ideas anyone?

Thanks
[Nexus One General] anosis:
What are you trying to do?

1) you had to unlock the bootloader which enables you to install a new recovery image (which is needed to allow you to install new roms)

2) you had to apply the recovery image Amon RA via a command prompt and a batch file if you use Windows. The phone's USB connection needs to be in development mode and once the batch file executes and successfully finishes you need to reboot the phone.

3) you restart the phone into bootloader mode, use the volume rocker to select the recovery console. If you end up with an andriod and exclamation symbol the Amon RA recovery file was not installed.

4) the new recovery console allows you to clean the SD card. Install roms from the SD card and some other commands. The Roms for the Andriod are in ZIP format and do not need to be unziped. In other words all you need to copy to the SD card is the full ZIP file (approx 75MB) and install that directly from the recovery console.

If your android stays in the booting sequence which is shown as the X with flying little pixels, it's most likely because you did not wipe the device clean first. That item is in the recovery console as well.

Hope this helps. I am just as new to this as you are.
[Nexus One General] tribalmunky:
You didn't unzip them did you?
[Nexus One General] tonyx3:
You're trying to root with superboot. Great, but the recovery is not capable of flashing .img files, only .zip updates and roms and such. .img files have to be flashed using fastboot, not recovery, and are flashed from the connected computer.

If you read the superboot instructions from wherever you got the file, you'll see that you have to put the .img in the same directory ON YOUR COMPUTER as fastboot, connect via USB, boot the phone into fastboot, then enter the appropriate command line on the computer to flash the file.

If you've done that, then you are officially DONE with the rooting process.

Also, make damn sure that the superboot version matches the software version on your phone. They're both ERE27, right?

I'm not sure what anosis's post is talking about, but that looks more like the process for installing a custom rom (ie cyanogenmod), than rooting.

To root your phone, you DO NOT need Amon-RA's recovery. You only need that if you want to install custom roms, etc. It wont hurt to have it, as it includes many more functions than the stock recovery, but just to root, you don't need it.

Summary:

If you flashed the superboot.img from your computer via fastboot, your phone is rooted. Done.

You don't need to do anything in the recovery at all for rooting. Only for installing update.zips and custom rom.zips.
[Nexus One General] Daboxk:
Hey, So I have been scouring the forums trying to find some answers about this and you seem to be the closet to my situation. Here is what I did:

So I was running a CM9 Aplha, reverted back to stock 2.3.6 [1ada25375426.signed-soju-ota-189904.1ada2537]) so that I could then apply ICS update [VQ8PQk_V]) which I sucessfully did. This was about a month ago and it was all going well.

Then yesterday I wanted to upgrade to 4.0.4 [hR7QFEtn] so I did and superuser wasn't working properly but then I reinstalled it and got it to work. However I got to the point where everything was working fine EXCEPT for the Google Play store kept on force closing. I spent hours trying last night and could not find a solution.

I tried restoring the previous ICS update that I had and it worked, and then I tried updating again. Also side: My clockwork was on the fritz lately so I was using Zedowmaxs force into clockwork recovery image [fastboot boot recovery3101.img] to force it in sometimes.

Anyway bottom line here is where my REAL ISSUE begins. I decided just to wipe everything and start anew. I factory reset/ wiped properly [cache partition and davliche cache] and then locked my bootloader again. Then tried rebooting. Got stuck on Google screen. Then I unlocked my bootloader again. Tried again, same issue.

So, here is where I am at. Cannot get into recovery from fastboot, takes me back to fastboot. AND, everything is wiped because I locked/unlocked my bootloader. All I can do is adb commands.

I don't know what to do from here and there is a lot of things going on. If you could help that would be great!? What I am going to try next is to flash some recovery on, but I don't know which one/ try to mount a file to my sd card from adb commands.
