easier way

Well neither of those suggestions work on my HTC HD2 especially considering m3u is not native to WMP

so..

You can either create your playlists in Windows Media Player on PC but obviously with the files on your phones memory card, and choose File -> Save Now playing List as...

then choose 'any type' and call your playlist 'untitled.asx' or whatever as long as it ends in asx

otherwise i used Winamp its much easier to create playlists (m3u) and/or if you already have .m3u's just drag and drop them into the now playing in WMP and save as above

- save any .asx to the root folder of music drive of your phone

hope thats clear enough

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnydopemsr:
Okay so I have been flashing new stuff left and right... now when i went to flash CM-5.0.6 (which does not have the google apps installed yet) my google apps are still there? now thats not really a bad thing but when i am flashing i dont want to have to go through the setup wizard all the time. anyone know what i can do i tried fastboot erase system and it wouldnt let me. i am going to try the passimg when i get home being that my internet here at work will not let me download it... but if anyone has a work around that would be great.

thanks!

EDIT: NVM it looks like Cyanogen's backuptool.sh is working just like it should be... although it doesnt make sense since when i upgraded before it didnt work and then even after i applied the google apps and then wiped and reflashed the rom again it never backed them up until today some how... anyways got to grab a 5.0.5.3 so it doesnt back them up and reflash it that way. lol...

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleeepy2:
What recovery are you using? the alt L thing makes me think you are still using stock.

If you are using RA you don't need to rename it to update.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgb101:
im using recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.3.img

ihave just tried to use the one u are using but flashrec wouldnt see it, imreally at a loss now.

i just tried to install android stoc 1.0, so that i could start again but that to wouldnt install. so it looks like i may be stuck with 1.5 for now atleast.

edit- it wernt the one u have it was the recovery-RA-dream-v1.6.2.img i tried second
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamb:

start flashrec / in the box type something like

/sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.6.2.img

then flash it dont interpt then process and u got root ...

note : put img file in the root(main) of ur sd card
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgb101:
thanks for your help jamb, but i seem to have damaed the boot loader somewhere on my rooting journey :(,

i think i know where i done it as after post one, and before post two, i did (i think) get root and managed to flash superCSDIv14, (i got the custom spash with the android bot peeking from behind the A) but after the splash the phone just went black.

when i got your first post i decided to follow that post, i managed to flask android 1.0, then update to 1.5 then from that point i couldnt flash nothing, i even tried to flash back to 1.0 at one point.

last night i went to bed thinking that id be stuck with 1.5, but when i woke, i made the QTA upgrade msg on my phone so i ran it and now am back to where i started 1.6 (which is good cos google nav was released yesrerday:o)

as the OTA update worked all must not be broken so i decided to start again and tried to flash 1.0, it just faid so. my friend i am giving up, thank you for your time.

Hey man, your graphics driver packs were more than appreciated for my Diamond / Touch Pro / Touch HD ROMs! They made a difference.

BTW ... I'm dsixda, who got his life stolen away after starting on the Windows Mobile 6.x Onyx ROMs for the Elf/Elfin ;-)

Now that I'm on Android I really want to get back to doing actual development work. (I don't think writing Mortscripts for my ROMs count, do they?) However, the stock Android ROMs in my opinion are useful enough for my day-to-day activities... I'm just a file pushing guy for now ;-)

Hey,

Does anyone know if there is any way to get a winmo device to rotate it's screen automatically once connected via usb?:confused:

Only my X1 docks on it's side, would have posted in X1 forum but seems a more general question.

Thanks!!!:D
[General Topics] Rudegar:
a mort script would do that
[General Topics] ListerStorm:
Thanks, I'll look into that.

did see a demo script for rotation for tomtom;

Switch (question ( "Rotate screen before running TomTom?", "TomTom Launcher", "YesNoCancel" ))

case (1)

Rotate(90)

Runwait( "\Storage Card\Program Files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe" )

Rotate(0)

case (0)

Run( "\Storage Card\Program Files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe" )

case (2)

EndSwitch

Seems simple enough, rekon it could be as simple as changing that directory to active sync and removing the *question* part?

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
So... after install A2SD 2.5 last night (never had A2SD before)

Now I have no ring tones, neither custom or "factory"
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kyouko:
To if see your "factory" ringtones are still there check the /system/media/audio/notifications/ directory. But as for your custom ones they got wiped off your sd when you partitioned it.

adb remount

adb shell

$su (**if needed)

# cd system/media/audio/notifications (or /ringtones)

# ls
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:
hows that qoute go? a2sd demanded my wallet before stealing my girlfriend...? all ive heard is complaints about the new a2sd
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Las_Vegas:
If you have sounds in /sdcard/media/audio or /system/media/audio then restart and check again. If it's still empty, wait a couple of minutes. They will suddenly appear.

If they still don't appear, try moving one sound into /system/media/audio/ringtones and reboot again. When they all show up, you can leave the one sound in system memory or move it back.

This frustrated me for hours last night!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tkirton:
Most of the people complaining don't know much about a2sd or partitioning. That, and I'm thinking some of them also are creating an ext4 partition, whicn A2SD 2.5 doesn't recognize.

I'm working on another version that will recognize ext4 as well as attempt to be smarter.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tkirton:
This has nothing to do with A2SD (on any version, including mine)...A2SD doesn't touch /system/media. Could it be the ROM?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Las_Vegas:
This problem didn't exist before installing A2SD 2.5. I was using A2SD 2.0 previously with my sounds moved to the memory card and had no problems.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kyouko:
I think this guy knows what A2SD does and doesn't do considering he rebuilt it to 2.5.

Did u check the system/media/audio/ directories?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Las_Vegas:
Nobody said it does touch those files. I'm suspecting a slowdown in reading/changing the cache file(s) used to maintain these lists.

Having been a programmer for 30 years, I know that it's not uncommon to get unplanned and unusual side effects that don't seem related to the code. Just because I wrote it, doesn't mean I know how everything that someone else wrote is going to react to my code.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kyouko:
yeah my bad, i've been an ass lately on here. try clearing ur caches then and even the dalvik, i had a prob with things not showing up b4 and that helped me
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tkirton:
I think I got a little too defensive on it. You're right, each environment is different.

I think you may be onto something. The difference between 2.0 and 2.5 is the moving of the dalvik-cache. DamageControl uses the 2.0 version.

On 2.5, if he executes the following command on his phone: /system/bin/a2sd nocache, it will put the dalvik-cache back on internal memory.

I tested the program using a Class 6 card...not sure how the dalvik-cache reacts with, say, a Class 2 card. The write speed may be too slow to keep up.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
Well....

/system/media has nothing but the bootscreen folder in it, and everything that was on my SD card prior to partitioning was put back on there. I really didn't have but a few songs for ringtones that I used ring tone trimmer (HTC). I was content with the "factory" ring tones.

Anybody feel like pulling the HTC ring tones and zipping them up? I'd appreciate it. A helluva lot easier than nandroiding back and forth some old ROM.

Thanks,

Jonathan
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tkirton:
Here you go:

http://www.darktremor.com/upload/htcmedia.zip

1. Unzip the contents to a folder

2. Open a command prompt or a terminal session. Navigate to the directory you extracted the contents of the zip

3. In the folder, remount the filesystem to read-write mode by typing adb remount

4. Create an audio file by typing adb shell "mkdir /system/media/audio"

5. Change the permissions of the folder by typing adb shell "chmod 777 /system/media/audio"

6. Push the files to the phone by typing adb push . /system/media/audio

Hopefully, that's it.

If you need help, let me know.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
thanks. I pushed them and everythings back to normal.

Just for ****s and giggles... I re-flashed and installed A2SD and it did it again... dont know why but it deleted the /system/media/audio folder. Very strange.

I wasn't aware that the MotoDroid could be unlocked in the same manner as the N1.

To the best of my knowledge, Verizon has no plans of letting any phone they release be rootable out of the box. They have the most stringent controls of any network carrier and given the size of their network in the US, they don't have to compromise.

[Droid Incredible General] fallingup:
The moto droid does not have an unlocked bootloader like the n1. and this will more than likely follow the same suit as the desire and legend, so whatever paul did to root the desire and legend will more than likely work on the incredible. hold tight guys, im hoping to start developing on the incredible as soon as i can afford one ;)

[Droid Incredible General] itpromike:
I really do hope that this is better than the N1... I had the N1 two weeks and returned it... the features were cool and all but they were laggy most of the time and the touch screen experience was horrible. Not nearly as responsive as my iPhone which is unfortunate because I was really looking forward to the N1... I would have thought with the 1GHZ processor it would have been much quicker than the iPhone. Anyhow I've ordered the incredible and it should be here today. I'm REALLY REALLY hoping to have a good Android/HTC experience... There are little annoyances of how the HTC Sense UI works but I'm willing to overlook those if the phone is super fast and snappy even with widgets running.
[Droid Incredible General] suzook:
The incredibles touch screen is just as accurate as the iphone...and its actually quicker with apps and such. I am NOT an iphone hater...i am stating my experience with the incredible the last 2 days.
[Droid Incredible General] itpromike:
LOL you had to qualify yourself by saying you're not an iPhone hate. That's hilarious, it's cool dude anyone who can actually "hate" a company or a device when it has help create and foster an environment where other manufacturers make their products better to compete is crazy to me but they don't bother me either way LOL... But yeah thanks for the comment. I've had many Android devices so far, Sprint Hero, Canadian Hero on AT&T (I liked the design better than the gay sprint one), and the N1; they've all failed to impress me so far. All have had GREAT features like true multitasking but the phones perform so poorly when utilizing those features it seems pointless to me. I want my device to run just as quickly with 5 widgets running as it does with no widgets running and I think it's possible with the right level of care and attention to hardware AND software... I'm hoping that the incredible will be what I'm looking for... If not then I'll keep using my iPhone until I find something else that works for me. I am excited about the incredible though :-)
[Droid Incredible General] suzook:
HMMMM before you judge me, I own NO pc's...all mac since I can remember.So, NO I am not an apple hater. Believe it or not, i like android phones better than an iphone.I dont know why thats so hard to believe.

[Droid Incredible General] coolbho3000:
You're still going to be sorely disappointed if you expect the fast frame rates of the animations on the iPhone to be on the Incredible. The N1 is not a "laggy" phone just because the animations are a bit choppy.
