In the main video menu, you have the "mms video" option selected.

There is a camcorder icon in between the settings cog and the album icon, you can change it in there.

Camcorder Resolution Stuck on S (128x96) VIDEO AND NOT MMS VIDEO option

My 'Camcorder' application resolution is stuck on "S (128x96)" also.

This is when I go into the settings->Advanced page on 'Video' option - (MMS Video option is actually set to M (176x144), ie a Higher resolution than Video option).

Changing between MP4 and H.263/4 format doesn't help, the resolution is always greyed out.

I have a stock 1.43.206.4 WWE ROM and have only applied the official HTC Patches.

Does anyone know of a reg edit to fix this???, I've installed dotfred Task Manager with RegEdit built-in.

Hope someone can help, please.

Thanks.
[HD2 General] fatmonk:
You had me excited there, thought it was going to be that simple, but alas, that's not it.

With 'MMS Video' selected - the envelope with a camcorder at top right - the resolution is fixed at "M (176x144)".

The proble is when I have 'Video' selected - a camcorder on its own - At this point going into the settings cog and then advanced, the resolution is fixed at 128x96. Its greyed out so cannot be changed - just the same as with MMS Video selected bu an even lower resolution!

Very odd.

Any other augestions?

[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Do you guys have any tweaking apps installed?

The reason I ask is I have MPEG4 as a format option, which I think is only accessible with a tweak app, like BsBTweak (or reg file of course), I notice Firestorm33 does.

The only things greyed out on mine are metering mode and prefix, both of which I can guess the function and doubt they are related to this.

What options do you have selected in the Advanced options for video?

I have:

Resolution: VGA (obviously this is the one in question)

Review Duration: 10 seconds (I have tried all options in here and cannot reproduce your issue)

Capture Format: MPEG4 (which I think is only accessible with a tweak app, like BsBTweak (or reg file of course)

Recording Limit: No Limit

Keep Backlight: On

Record with Audio: On

Shutter Sound: Off (have toggled this, no difference)

Under Image Properties: +3 for all

Effect: None

Metering Mode: Spot (greyed out)

Prefix: Default (greyed out)

Counter: 52 (unlikely to cause issue though!)

Flicker Adjustment: Auto

Help/About are unnecessary.

Do these match yours? (bar the MPEG4 option)
[HD2 General] FireStorm33:
Camcorder stuck resolution - S (128x96)

I don't have a lot of time right now, I'll get back to you rp-x1 on settings and apps later.

Initially I was just re-iterating that I have the same problem as FM, but to explain my problem in more detail, the first day I owned my HD2 I recorded a video (at a higher resolution, ie an acceptable quality for everyday use, will try and get the actual res later) than I can now, so something I've installed since then, whether it be the the official HTC Patches or some other app must've locked down the resolution to the S 128x96 setting. :confused: I've not installed a whole lot of 3rd party apps yet, will post more details tonight.

I have thought about doing a Hard Reset to take the phone back to factory settings, but hoping I don't have to.
[HD2 General] fatmonk:
I do have BSB Tweaks installed, yes.

And to be honest I couldn't say either way whether this problem started around that time.

I'll post a mesage in the BSB Tweaks forum as well to see if anyone there has seen anything similar (there's no mention as I did a search there before posting here just in case).

-FM
[HD2 General] Trollskillerz:
Hi guys,

I've exactly got the same problem, have you found a issue yet ?
[HD2 General] fatmonk:
Haven't been able to find what caused this, so yesterday I took the plunge and hard reset.

Camcorder, of course, came back all good and I've since installed all my apps again (I think they're all on now) and the problem hasn't come back.

One thing I did notice, though, is that 'mobiletag' no longer seems to work. This possibly stopped working around the same time that the Camcorder issue started - though I'm not sure about that.

Even after the hard reset and re-install 'mobiletag' throws an error that it's 'unable to load camera library'. The error details aren't particularly helpful either as the charcter set appears to be odd. The errors are:

at #.#.#()
at #.#.#()
at #.#.#()
at #.#.SpecificInit()
at #.#.#()
at #.#.#()
at #.#.#()
at #.#.#()

where each of the # characters above is actually a square character like you get when a character is missing from a articular font.

May be related, may be not.

Would be interesting to know if anyone else who has had this problem also has 'mobiletag' installed - it uses the camera so there's some logic to that being to blame.

Guys,

I have been searching for a few hours for the Google Reader from Google or HTC.

Earlier I used a custom ROM (do not know anymore which one) with this Google Reader application.

I want to add it to my current ROM, but cannot find it.

Who knows where I can find the APK of this app. (I do not know the real name anymore of the app)

Thank you in advance!

I have confirmed the alarms in Clocks & Alarms is not having this problem, so I think it must be the SPB Time program???

Thanks for any help!

[HD2 General] hollinshead:
Settings > Location

Ensure location service settings is on, HTC location service is ticked, and auto decline is not ticked.

tried this, they are both ticked, tried unticking them and reticking them,

still showing as london, this is so irritating im getting the wrong weather location updates,

i dont know what to do
[HD2 General] hollinshead:
You could try opening google maps and letting it use GPS?

I'm not sure if that will fix your weather problem though.

il try it and see if it works, god damn it !! I liked having the latest weather depending on where I was !!

have you left your weather screen showing a fixed city (london) instead of "my location", I've read where that can cause location issues. also on the weather screen , menu - enable my location.

perhaps updating satelite list via QuickGPS could help - just guessing though as i only notice such stuff when i dont have a gps signal (like indoors) then it takes the nearest mobile signal carriers location (cellphone antenna mast or whatever its called)

Sorry folks, but the location service does NOT work in Edinburgh. HTC know about this but won't do anything about it... very frustrating.

Wrong Location on weather

Hi,

the same problem on mine but me had me in India!

I was getting false 3g & HSDPA signals.

I contacted T-Mobile who confirmed that my area was being upgraded from 2g.

He then suggested that I change my phone band to GSM only, I had a similar problem with my MDA pro a few years ago.

Anyhow seems to have solved that problem, hope that helps.

By the by phone / menu / options / band / network type - choose gsm.

it hasn't solved the mystery of my disappearing contacts (sim & phone) but I guess that is for another forum!!
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
I just wonder if there is a way of blocking/preventing other people with different sim-cards to access my mail that I configured on my phone?

Example:

I configure my mail on my phone with all settings like username and password. Then I accidently lose my mobile and someone finds it. But this guy who finds it want to use it for bad things. He can't get my PIN password so he puts his SIM-card into my mobile. Therefore he can access my mobile and go into my mail that's already been set up. So now he can read everything in my mail and even send mails from the phone.

How do I prevent this?

C
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
Change the password on your e-mail account if you know that your phone is lost. He cannot see it or change it from the device, so once you change it, he will not be able to access it anymore. Also, you can set a personal password lock, which is independent from the SIM card. Finally, there are a couple of apps that can do certain things if your device is lost/stolen. They are in the D&H section.
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Thanks :) But I tried to whatch my received mails with my sisters SIM-card, and it worked :S so if I lose my phone... the person can read the mails that I've received... and that's not good. Do you have any solution?

Btw, I'll check the D&H section!
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
Mostly everything you can use will depend on whether the device is connected to the internet, which might not be the case depending on the knowledge of the thief. You could probably add an app for tracking in case the phone is lost or stolen though (if your device is GPS capable, that is).
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
One more thing..

When I want to receive my latest mails - like the one I've received within three days ago. I go to my inbox and select receive/send. But what it does is that it recieves every single mail I got in my "real" inbox. And that's not what I want. I want it to just dwnld the newest messages. Because if this works... I can manually delete my messages in my mobile Inbox, so it doesn't store the mails to long. Because if I lose my phone, the theif will only have accsess to around 5mails :)
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
I think that there is either a setting or an app to automatically purge the saved e-mail if they are in the device for +3 days or so. I will look into it.
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Thanks, but do you know what's the problem is with that I get all my messages from my inbox when I press "receive/send" in my mobile inbox? Because I've set the setting to just get the mails from 3days..
[General Questions and Answers] Dark Ninja:
just a thought, to prevent that you could just put a password on your phone? So the person who takes it cant access your phone let alone the mail etc.
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
Had already suggested that, but the OP seems to have different concerns.
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Okay, but how do I enable such a password?

AND I also wonder this:

AND don't forget this:

Thanks :D
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
just wanted to see if someone know the answers :)
[General Questions and Answers] Bulldog:
I am not sure whether I really understand you but as suggested previously why don’t you use “Auto lock” with a password.(settings--->Lock..)

You can set after how many minutes or hours the device will be locked. After that time run up you need to input your password in order to able to use or see anything on your device
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Hmm, it's more like an app that does the following:

Locks the phone (require a password) when turning on the phone. In that way, it doesn't matter if you have an extra SIM-card, because you can't access the phone. And then it's just a hard-reset that will restore the phone, but then my problem is solved - all my private files etc is gone with the wind :)
[General Questions and Answers] Bulldog:
exactly! Even better if you use Microsoft exchange server mail then you don’t need to wait until the guy make hard reset you just simply remotely wipe your device
[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
Use the lock function so go to start/settings and look for lock. Choose either 4 digit or more complex and set lock time as you wish. - i dont really knwo what more you would want because even if u switched sim, you would still have to crack the lock code.
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Haha, so it was that simple ^^

Sometimes easy settings seems to be complicated :P but thanks for your replies ;)

But the question about my email still remain :/

When I press "send/receive" my phone downloads every single mail. But when I go to Inbox-Tools-Options-My Account-Edit Account Setup I've already set the "download message" to from the past 3 days. What's the problem?
[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
:D No probs, easiest solutions are always the best ones :D

mm not sure why that is doin that, setting the period should only download the relevant days...... what email provider u using? pop3? gmail? all work fine with me and i use exchange too.

If you cant sus it out, i would delete your email account, soft resest and set it up again.

mm that is strange, with those setting you should not be getting older mail?

Might sound odd, but have you tried a different setting, so like 1 week, or 1 day mail, save it and soft reset?

If not i will have a dig around.
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
somehow it seems to work now :S :P so I just hope it remains like that :)
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
But I take the chance to get another question answered..

How do I copy some special message that I want to save - onto my SIM-card? It works for example with Sony Ericssons mobiles, so it should work in some way on the HTCs in my opinion :P I've searched xda, but I havn't found anything to use :/ just PIMBackup... but when I restore from my PIMBackup, it just restore the messages that I've sent and not the messages that I received as answers :S
[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
have you tried using MS myphone, look on market place for it ;)
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Yea, I know that one, but I don't like the idea of saving your sms on a internet server :/ and therefor I use PIMBackup... but it doesn't save my received SMS, just the sent SMS :S
[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
mm there should be a setting to save all messages im sure, ill check tho as i have used PIMbup for ages! And dont be paranoid about using myphone, its very good!
[General Questions and Answers] Bulldog:
if you using energy ROM, is the ROM without the HTC messaging? because the MS messaging gives you option to save/copy a SMS to your SIM card. I am personally using this option( The best) http://www.jeyo.com/
[General Questions and Answers] Cir0w:
Now I figured the problem out... I use Sashimi to restore my mail account and I've also choosed to pre-set the settings. And it seems not to work out with HTCs mail. The settings are set, but it doesn't take affect..

Ok, but I use the ROM in my signature.. and I can't find any option to save sms to my SIM-card :/

I'll use MyPhone from now :)
[Desire General] DonClemento:
hi all

i've preordered a desire, it's my third htc device but the first device with capacitive display.

does anybody have experience with a capacitive display and invisible shield?

is this going to bite each other? maybe it's a stupid question, but i want to protect my brand new phone..

thank for replies!
[Desire General] Jeppfi:
I had Invisible Shield on my Hero, and it's useless. You won't get scratches on your screen, unless you try to make scratches.
[Desire General] pphillips001:
I've tried this product on two phones - one capacitive multitouch - the other a bb bold. A waste of time and money for both. You'll be peeling it all off in a number of weeks as the edges get frayed and any speck of dust you trapped when 'installing' will drive you nuts!

Just stick with the phone - you'll be fine.
[Desire General] cpam:
Yes is a waste of money and time. I have it on my HD and the stylus constantly get stuck cos is the shield is too soft... Don’t bother.:)
[Desire General] Staticsoul:
The desire will have a teflon layer on the screen. It makes sure you dont get fingerprints on your screen. If you put a screenprotector on it you will have fingerprints on your screen again. So I think it's even worse to put a screen protector on your screen.
[Desire General] salahag:
Wow everyone is against the protective layer. I have had it on my Hero since minute one, for 5 months now, and until now you can't tell it's there. I also use the phone and play with it constantly.

I'm sure we all hate to see the screen get scratched right? so it's better safe than sorry, in my opinion. You just need to be extra careful when installing it to eliminate any apparent dust getting trapped.

I would also recommend buying and extra one for the long run. ;)
[Desire General] DonClemento:
thanks for all replies.

hmm.. i love my invisible shield on the diamond. it's no as slippery as the plastic back cover and if i write with the stylus it helps to. also i can put the desire on my car's dashboard and it's not slipping away (for navigation).

i think i'll buy a shield. if it's not good, i have removed it within a blink of an eye and my desire costs very little, so i can absorb this 30 $ ;)
[Desire General] pphillips001:
So four 'no's and a maybe has translated into a yes??

So you either work for a certain protective screen supplier (as you specifically mentioned a brand) and are after cheap advertising.

Or you had made up your mind irrespective of people's time and opinion - which is just plain rude.
[Desire General] zaphyr:
Agree with the others. It's a waste of money.

I had a shield on my Diamond, and I think it was needed on that one, but on my Hero it is absolutely not needed.

I've had my Hero for almost 8 months, and not a scratch. I've dropped it on the ground several times, but the screen remains as shiney as the day I got it.
[Desire General] DonClemento:
me? oh.. come on! i just want to know how other people think about this.

and a scratch-proof display is just a fairy-tale!! i think you work for a display company with this (really) scratch-proof display..

no way, buddy, really

edit: anyway, not every screen protector is equal to another and my first question was, if a protector stops the electrical field of the touchpanel... that's it..
[Desire General] O and O:
I have a a Zagg one (same product) on my Zune HD. No isses here at all. Also put it on a Omnia HD this was a bit more problematic as it was my first time and the edges did fray but my Zune HD looks good as new :D.
[Desire General] salahag:
Guys just watch this video to the end and I'm sure ALL of you will use the invisible shield.

At least with it on the screen you can confidently clean it when it gets to that. :)

He is sitting at a dinner table that has clearly just had dinner eaten from it and there is lot' of evidence that the food was sticky finger type stuff in fairness to the poor fella!

I will use a screen protector but defo not paying $30. When I got my G1 I used a razor blade to cut the little pull tab thing off the transit screen protector and left it in place until 2 weeks ago. 17 months! I still have the other one that came in the box! anyone want to buy it? ;)
