I've just realized a big problem with opera 10.

Indeed, if I surf the web using opera 10 while listening to the music using the HTC music player, music lags and, in the worst case, the telephone crashes.

This problem doesn't happen if I use opera 9.7 in the place of opera 10.

Do anyone has the same problem?
[HD2 General] hardspartan360:
hi,i notice this on my HD2 too.When i'm using the HTC music player and open Opera 10 sometimes the music stops for 2-3 seconds and some kind of lag appears in the browser.This happened to me only a few times and never to the point of a system crash.Maybe you have more apps in background.I'm using the last version of Touch Extreme rom if it helps you.

With Windows media player the problem not happen.Pd:excuse me for my bad English,i'm a spanish user.Regards.
[HD2 General] beyondthought:
Testing................. No lag for me, everything works fine.
[HD2 General] hardspartan360:
Maybe the problem it's 3g related.In my case the hiccup occurrs surfing one heavy website and when the 3g connection turns to GPRS.When the website was completely load the music player worked fine and it only happened on more time under the same circunstances.For me it's ok.
[HD2 General] thenomadsoul:
Which ROM do you use?

I use Michy's 1.2, based on windows mobile 6.5.x

I've just done another experiment; I have the lag problem when heavily scrolling the page. The problem occurs even when the internet page is completely loaded, even when using wifi, so I don' think it is 3g related..

I'm using Vodafone 1.66 rom.

[HD2 General] HouWWari:
Hi!

I got Music player crash for ~2 secondes too :confused:, i did not try Opera.

And this crash is very often.

Rooted G1 UK

CyanogenMod 4.2.15.1
[HD2 General] vanpeltje:
my HD2 crashes with opera 10 + music player

My HD2 freezes when i'm listening to music and when i'm surfing with Opera 10. Can't figure out why, i hardreset a couple of times. Don't have much apps.

Every time it gets stuck and then it reboots. Pretty annoying!

I use

Dutty creme de la creme V5 NLD

radio: 2.12.50.02_02

little note:

Got the same thing with Android marc 1.5

I just tried flashing another rom (artemis) same problem, maybe HPL or radio bug?
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
After loving Opera 10 for a while, I've gone back to 9.7 due to the random crashes.

If it is set to full screen, when minimised and then maximised, the start bar (including all the network, battery icons) disappear, leaving a black bar.

If it is in landscape and the screen switches off, the phone locks up or freezes for a few moments only to have the phone stuck in landscape.

If I use 9.7, I don't have any of these issues.
[HD2 General] vanpeltje:
I don't want to switch back to 9.7 :(
[HD2 General] Archange1:
Music will pause/skip for me when I browse heavy websites (eg: Engadget, Kotaku, pocketnow) in Opera 9.7.

I've been putting it down to Opera being too much of a CPU-hog; when it's busy rendering the page or doing javascript, I suspect it uses up 100%, starving the music app (the sense music player in my case) of CPU time.
[HD2 General] pedroxxx:
Same problem here

I am listening HTC player and browsing in landscape in Opera 10 pretty often, and when I touch accidetly back(<-) HW button, middle of the screen freezes, on the bottom and top are black bars, bottom menu is changing when i press MS button, but nothing else. I can't even turn it off, I have to pull out battery. I never noticed it with 1.66 ROM, but now I am on Duttys Redemption.

Probably the reason is some ROM tweek in register which has these consequencies.

It is pretty anoying. Since then I am extra carefull when I am browsing :-)
[HD2 General] therudster:
I'm getting a weird error with the music player also, for some reason it only plays the first 10-15 seconds of the song and then nothing. I have to fast forward for it to play another 10-15 seconds.

Don't recall changing any settings on the phone, using a stock tmo hd h2
[HD2 General] vanpeltje:
something wrong with HTC music and surfing?

What i tried:

ROM Dutty's Creme de la creme V5 NLD

radio: 2.12.50.20_02

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with opera 10 = HD2 crash

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with Opera 9.7 = HD2 crash

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with internet explorer 10 = HD2 crash

Rom dutty's creme de la creme V5 NLD

Radio: 2.10.50.26

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with opera 10 = HD2 crash

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with Opera 9.7 = HD2 crash

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with internet explorer = HD2 crash

Rom Artemis V28.0 NLD

radio: 2.12.50.20_02

Playing music with HTC music and surfing with opera 10 = HD2 crash

What should ik do? What is the f*ck problem with my HD2?

Also upgrade HSPL from 2 to 3, nothing works.
[Hero CDMA General] chemical25:
Hey, I have been looking forward to the 2.1 update for our Heros because I thought it was going to finally give us simple VPN access... *to Cisco concentrators*. Unfortunately, it only gives us IPSec/L2TP PSK or CRT... whereas I need a pure IPSec client that supports Group Authentication in order to connect to my corporate VPN.

So, I, and I am sure many others, need to revert back to the Get-A-Robot-VPNC client to connect to our corporate networks, but apparently do not have a correct tun.ko module. Trying to insmod a tun.ko module, I get "invalid format" or "failed executable" - So, can someone provide a tun.ko that we can use, or explain how to get one installed in these new 2.1 ROMs?

I am currently using the ZenHero 2.1 ROM

Thanks! Once I get VPN access again, the Hero will really be something pretty damn awesome again.
[Hero CDMA General] chemical25:
Or, does anyone know of any VPN clients coming down the pipe for Android? or any other projects in development?

I heard Shew Soft was coming out with a mobile variant... not sure if it'll be on Android though..
[Hero CDMA General] danaff37:
I have no use for it or way to try it, but I did find vpn connections in the market when searching for something else and remembered this thread. It said on the comments though to go to the site for the latest version. http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/

actually, a search for vpn in the market turned up a few options. Take a look, I don't know exactly what you need.
[Hero CDMA General] dwertz:
I have been trying multiple ways. I even tried the tun.ko. I have not been successful but I would like to hear if anyone is successful.
[Hero CDMA General] chemical25:
Unfortunately, none support, what I think to be the most popular VPN type, from a corporate stand-point: pure IPSec that supports Group Authentication. Most in the market are just for VPNC.

Thanks for your post though.
[Hero CDMA General] kkruse:
Yes the android app is lacking.

I have a Cisco concentrator working with MY phone. I just dumped all Group based auth. We wanted a device that would work with 99.999% of devices on the market and our little Asa-5505 does the trick.

You should be able to configure policies on the cisco to handle either clients, that is really your or your admins choice.

Otherwise the stock android vpn client MY only complaint is it will NOT let me vpn over mobile network.. only wifi. Kinda pointless if I have wifi I would use my laptop to vpn to work. WTF?:confused:
[Hero CDMA General] lorenr8525:
Sprint is the problem

I realize this post has been sitting here for a while, but I thought this might help some others who may run into similar issues. At my work, we have all Cisco equipment and have a Cisco ASA configured with PSK mobile VPN. We are having basically no luck getting in using Sprint-connected devices (Sprint EVO 4G) on anything but Wifi. I CAN, however, connect just fine on my Samsung Captivate over AT&T 3G signal using the same built-in android VPN client. We've gone the rounds with the Sprint Engineers on this and they have nothing they can pinpoint that is causing this outage. I would really like for either Cisco or Sprint to come up with a good explanation as it shouldn't matter if you're on Wifi or 3G, it should work either way. The point is that it works on AT&T for us, but not Sprint, as far as 3G/4G data connection is concerned.

[Desire General] carrige:
Well, title pretty much says it all.

Up to yesterday, I could play YT videos fine from the full website [just click the video and it opens in fullscreen], now it says that I need to upgrade my version of Flash. And when I click the link to 'upgrade' it says that Flash 10.1 for Android is coming in 1st half of 2010.

I know I can use the standalone application, but still. Other flash video sites like College Humor work, no problem.

Is it just me?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pgonza02:
Hi,

I have narrowed down my problem to the music player attempting to update album art.

After some time, it just hangs and stops playing. Eventually it comes back and music can continue.

I think the problem is with it trying to update the album art (I see the spinning circle on the top left)

I have read some issues with the files being read-only but that is not my case.

I also don't have any of the Update Album Art settings checked so not sure why it is even trying.

My music all has correct art. I've done it on my PC.

Any way to stop the player from trying to get the album art?

Thanks very much.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
You can't stop it, a process is started when it starts loading the album arts, when that is killed or you reboot your phone you have to load them again. I never had to load the album arts 2 time.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pgonza02:
Any idea why it causes the player to hang?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
Well.. for me I can't even play the music until the album arts are 100% loaded so I just wait till they are lol. You should do the same or use another media player such as PocketMusic Player, S2P or Nitrogen.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pgonza02:
Please excuse the ignorance but how do I know they are loaded? Once the spinning ring stops?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
Yes, that's right.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pgonza02:
I think I understand now.

I thought the Update... were toggles that meant to update as it went, but they are just actions.

Thanks a bunch for clarifying.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pgonza02:
I left the phone on the music tab overnight, and even after that whenever I come back to play music it still seems to try to update the album art.

Is there any way to batch complete this?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
That's strange. What I have done is like this: Storage Card\Music\Artist\Album and there I put all the songs from a release together with the album art and name it "Folder.jpg". After you update the library in WMP and go to the HTC player it will create a new .jpg in all folders.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pgonza02:
I don't go through WMP, just copied my files manually but they all have the album art in the same file structure you mentioned. I use Media Monkey to clean up my media.

On a separate note, I noticed that you are from Sweden, a friend is going to Stockholm on Friday. Do you think flights from the US will be making it in by then?

Thanks.

Want to provide more information about your phone and how often does this happen? It only has happened maybe twice on my phone, but I was experimenting with diff ROMs and kernels which caused other funky things to happen on my phone.

I'm looking for a charging speaker dock ( al a ipod / iphone ) for a HTC Desire.

Ideally to charge the phone and play music via, then the phone can be used as an alarm clock.

Any ideas ?

Thanks :)
[Desire Accessories] FloatingFatMan:
Well.. I don't think the Desire outputs audio through the USB port, so you'd have an ugly audio cable running from the dock to the top of the Desire...
[Desire Accessories] mesaka:
I'd also be looking for one of these. I guess it could use bluetooth to avoid the cable issue?
[Desire Accessories] quicksite:
Don't you think we will soon see a device very similar to the Nexus One dock -- which has both wired audio out, and also bluetooth audio -- once paired, it plays through your speakers without the phone in the dock. It also is set up to be used as a bedside clock for alarm, with dimmer display. You may know all this already, but just in case you don't, here is the Desire's first cousin's (Nexus One's) dock... just to show that what you want is probably coming very soon.

[Desire Accessories] flitjes:
It could work if the dock charges the phone while it's sending the audio thrue bluetooth hope some 1 well go further with this idea...
[Desire Accessories] al89nut:
Why couldn't I use the Nexus One dock for the Desire then?

Because the Desire doesn't have the extra pins on the bottom edge to connect with the dock.

I really really love my HD2 but the only thing that I have a problem is the alarm clock. The alarm goes off and plays the notification but then doesnt repeat or a long pause between the notificatios. Is there a way to have the notification repeat till you turn off the alarm or a free alarm app alternative?
[HD2 General] ohhyeahh:
I'd love to know a good alternative app too because it doesn't seem I can select anything but the default alarm rings. I'd love to be able to play music instead

The best alarm I have found is G-alarm (not Free) but well worth the money. It allows for mp3 as alarms. do a search and you will find it
[HD2 General] cu2cool:
My problem with the stock alarm is that the pop up notification box no longer shows unless I tap on the notification bar first. I think it used to before I did a hard reset. Basicall when the alarm goes off I want to see that pop up box on the bottom where I can dismiss or snooze. It was so much more convenient then having to tap on the notification bar after unlocking. I also have BSB tweaks installed and have the dismiss x time option enabled.

EDIT: Found the solution in All Settings. Just had to enable the pop up.

settings - menu - all settings - sounds and notifications - notifications tab - select reminders - tick display message on screen

NOOOOOOO! My cousin tried to partition my sd card for me and said he knew what he was doing. Next thing I know, everything is missing from my sd card including nandroid backups, PLUS it cut my memory down from 16gb to 13gb. Is this normal or what? He did it through the boot menu and did 512 for the swap and 512 for the other. Not sure what that means, but I'm pretty sure I got ****ed here. Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Sounds like he formated as NTFS or something with huge Allocation Units or something.
[Hero CDMA General] riggsandroid:
When you partition your card it also formats it.

The reason the capacity dropped is because it has been partitioned so that only the partition that you see, is only 13gb.

You have never made a backup of your SD card? You could tell your cousin to not touch your things.

A good piece of advice:

Always make backups of backups, on different media. Hopefully you have some nandroids saved to your desktop/laptop.

Sorry about that. Might be better in the future to do it yourself and follow guides on here. They are pretty straight forward and usually indicate when backups should be made. Sorry but those files are gone.
[Hero CDMA General] jonnythan:
Partitioning a drive or card erases its contents.
[Hero CDMA General] KBizzle:
You are F'd in the A! I feel your pain, I accidentally partitioned without saving all the stuff on my SD card first. Sorry for your loss.
[Hero CDMA General] MuzikJay:
damn. looks like it was my mistake then. well did he at least partition it right? so I don't have to again? lol. Im currently going through different file recovery programs in hope lol
[Hero CDMA General] drummingfool:
Keep in mind, you can use a partition manager such as paragon partition manager to partition without formatting. Thats how I did it.
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
You should have lost 1 gig, not 3 if he formatted it correctly. Also, 512 swap is probably not a good idea.

Like the poster above recommended, use a partitioning program to sort your card out.. and yes it will format it again.
[Hero CDMA General] Droidish:
Get Test Disk (Opensource Disk Recovery) It will likely be able to recover everything no problem.
[Hero CDMA General] MuzikJay:
damn, so should i partition it again? and lower the swap to 512 or will that just take even more space away from the 13gb?
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
Not through recovery, sounds like you have several ext partitions already. I use Paragon Partition Manager and you will have to load the card in a card reader outside of the phone.

Personally I don't use swap at all, the heavy read/write cycles kill sd cards at a much faster rate than even a2sd. Most guys that run a swap use 32 or 64 megabytes and 512 is fine for a2sd.

If your card really decreased 3 gigs in size then you will probably find that you have 3 swap partitions, 3 ext partitions and one 13gb fat32 partition. It would literally take 5 minutes to delete the extra partitions and restore the card with a partitioning program.
[Hero CDMA General] kurigowa:
data recovery

If you add files or data to the card it will be very hard or impossible to recover. Run data recovery software on the disk immediately and it should find most of your data.
[Hero CDMA General] thesparky007:
http://www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.HTML

connect the card as a removable disk to a pc and try that software, you should be able to restore most of the stuff
[Hero CDMA General] MuzikJay:
worked great! thanks!
[Hero CDMA General] MuzikJay:
So if i go to boot menu and choose, "Wipe SD:ext partition" will that get me back to 16gb or can I never get back that extra space?
[Hero CDMA General] Las_Vegas:
No, but if you simply select the option to 'partition with ext', it should recover most of your space other than that used for the ext (a2sd) partition.
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
If you don't want to use a2sd you can get all of it back with a partition program.

Otherwise do what the last poster suggested and reformat your card with 32 or 0 swap and 512-1gb ext3 from Recovery.
[Hero CDMA General] MuzikJay:
thank you both so much
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
Don't forget, most companies sell cards in increments of 1,000, where a computer would read them in increments of 1024. So it's very likely your 16GB card would be read at about 14.5 to 15GB under normal circumstances.
