[Desire General] AnttiV:
Hi.

My Desire is now a couple of weeks old, and so far I'm loving it. But I've bumped into a weird and really annoying problem. Occasionally it stops play any kind of music (ringtones, mp3s, etc). Videos stop working too. Unmounting/Remounting and/or powering off/on the phone SOMETIMES works, but not always, and before long, it returns to the state where no music can be played. It worked perfectly the first week or so, but then this happened.

I use a 8Gb Transcend MicroSD card in it. But it can't really be the card (at least 100%.) As it is ONLY the music (and video files), mp3 still show up on the player, all tags and album art show up properly. Camera works. and so does downloading and using different files (PDFs, roms for emulators etc.) everything else works, but when it's time to output something that makes a sound, it doesn't work. Not with built-in music player, not with 3rd party apps or widgets. (tried several Video Player, Ringdroid and MixZing come to mind).

Strangely, "Musical Lite" plays the piano sounds ok, but I'm assuming it has it's own playback engine/decoder.

I'm assuming anything that uses the internal APIs for sound does not work.

I can connect the phone to a computer, mount the SD card and play the videos/music just fine (and access all other card content).

I have an EU version of Desire:

Model A8181

firmware 2.1-update1

Kernel 2.6.29-97da29ed

Build 1.15.405.4 CL155070 release-keys

I'd appreciate any pointers or suggestions of what to try/test/tell.

EDIT: Just to clarify. It's only music. Sound effects (from keys for example) work all the time, calls work as supposed. It's only music (incl. ringtone) that doesn't work at all.
[Desire General] AnttiV:
Anyone? I've tried removing and re-inserting the sd card, but it doesn't help. Also as built-in ringtones do not work either, it is probably not the card at fault.
[Desire General] dexteral:
have you checked the ringer volume and the media volume in settings. otherwise get it replaced or repaired under warranty
[Desire General] AnttiV:
Every separate volume is set to full. I forgot to say that everytime I try to access a music file (player, ringdroid. But not in settings when selecting ringtone, or when the phone should actually ring) I get an error "unable to play this type of music file". Videos don't give that error, they just don't work. No errors.
[General Questions and Answers] JaredMarino:
Hey guys,

I have EnergyROM with the GTX theme and I love the new lockscreens, however my exchange server requires a password protected lockscreen and I cant seem to use the good loking screens, only the ugly one that came with Energy.

Any help?
[General Questions and Answers] TheDeadCPU:
Have you tried S2U2? :p
[General Questions and Answers] JaredMarino:
I believe my ROM came with it, I can use the s2u2 but I have two lockscreens the one that asks for my passcode and then a second unlock screen lol

[Droid Incredible General] kesparate:
well, i'm not really sure what i did but i seem to have managed to stop autofocus from working. this is a real problem because it means the barcode scanners can't focus.

i haven't been monkeying around in root or anything (obviously) just installing and uninstalling random apps, but i'm at the bottom of the android learning curve and don't really know how to begin trouble shooting this.

any advice on where to begin would be appreciated.

thanks
[Droid Incredible General] rkaplins:
I actually think I may have a very similar issue (as it ONLY happens when using a bar code scanning app) but I thought it was just me. Is this what is happening to you...

When I am using a bar code scanning app, the camera starts focusing on the image and just as it gets in focus, it goes out of focus again and then repeats this cycle endlessly. Sometimes it is able to get a lock before it focuses again but not always. I thought it might be a low light issue. I tried turning up the light and it wasn't much different though.
[Droid Incredible General] bahill:
I have this problem, too. I can't focus the camera, it makes the sound, but there is no change at all in the focus when I tap to focus. Also, barcode reader / shop savvy is useless, as the focus on the barcode never occurs.

It seems like this happened when I went to 2.2 via one of many ROMs I've tried.

I suppose it could just be a hardware issue?
[Droid Incredible General] bilbobrian:
What rom and radio are you guys using?
[Droid Incredible General] bahill:
Virtuous 2.7 with the default adrynalyne Kernel

Radio is 2.15.00.07.28
[Droid Incredible General] infotechsailor:
in virtuous 2.7 the focus on my camera sux, especially for night pics w/ flash.

radio 2.05.00.06.11
[Droid Incredible General] a65lopez:
Just sharing my two cents. I'm running virtuous 2.7 with king's kernal #4, rooted with s-off and 2.15 radio, also on 2.2. Just checked camera after reading this thread and not experiencing any probs thus far. Auto focus working, using touchscreen to take photos.

Im a newb, so I didn't do any modifications other than following directions on this site for rooting, adding roms, etc.. Not any help to you guys, sorry.
[Droid Incredible General] bahill:
I tried downgrading back to stock 2.1, then applied the OTA Update.zip to 2.2, still no luck with the camera focus.

I have a new DInc coming to me under a warranty claim with Verizon.
[Droid Incredible General] smtom:
Hold 'er steady...

Same story for me - won't 'lock on' to the image in order to scan the barcode ~ stock camera. Also tried the EVO camera available in the one of the ROM Manager d/l sections - not much different - for me.

Anecdotally, oddly, I let someone else try w/ my handset, and it worked for them.

SO...... either they have a more steady hand, or.....
[Windows Mobile Themes] campbell.0:
I found this iPlayer .ico file online and converted it to a PNG so I could use CSMI to replace the myPlayer icon.

It's not a bad resolution within Cookie's Home Tab or Start menu. Maybe someone here knows how to tidy it up or could possibly recreate it as a a proper WM icon?

To download: Right-click icon at the bottom & save.

Hope you find this useful and pls don't hate cos its not high quality. I wouldn't know where to begin with creating an icon from scratch.(Plus I'm hoping someone will take up the challenge ;) )
[Windows Mobile Themes] wordsworse:
Icon made nice

Was looking for an icon for Myplayer and found this thread - took your icon and added a little jazz. here to share :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] biernes_atrece:
you can also try these

i will be including it in my icons collection, if you don't mind.

[Desire General] PseudoReal:
well done! Thanks!

Do you happen to know how to install serbian latin/kyril characters for using with the HTC Keyboard?
[Desire General] skrki:
There's an application called Serbian keyboard in the Market. Works well, as far as I can remember.. it's no HTC IME, just the plain Android keyboard.

I'm on a MT3G, so don't know if it'll work on Desire, but you can try and report back.
[Desire General] PseudoReal:
yeah, I have seen that. It works quite good! Wish there was something for HTC IME or even HTC IME mod

The answer is that no one really knows for certain; it's possible but not guaranteed. If you're dead set on it I'm sure that someone will make it available on here if not.

Most of us here will be holding off in the hopes that a root solution for 2.1leak comes out (unless a root solution for 2.1official comes out first).
[Droid Eris Android Development] chaous2000:
Yes you will, on the official VZWsupport twitter, they are saying they are pushing the update to all eris owners, regardless if you have the leak or not.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] neomagik:
Being a long served WinMo user i'm quite lost when it comes to Android.

I (and others) have a problem in that the recipient of a phone call via our bluetooth connections to our Nokia CK-7W car kits experience bad echoing.

I have started a thread in the HTC Desire forum and it is clear that I'm not the only one who suffers. Here's the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=676175

A user in a WinMo forum posted a solution by changing the Class of Device (COD) in the registry so that the phone identifies itself as a normal phone rather than a smartphone and it seemed to work.

Is there a similar thing we can do in Android so that the device identifies itself as a normal phone?

Thanks

Rob
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] neomagik:
We've found the following text in the '/system/etc/bluez/main.conf' file

# Default device class. Only the major and minor device class bits are

# considered.

# Local device class

# 0x400000 - Service class: Telephony

# 0x000200 - Major class: Phone

# 0x00000C - Minor class: Smart phone

Class = 0x40020C

I've tried all sorts of ways to edit this file to change the Class but nothing seems to work.

I've tried editing the file directly from the phone using root explorer, but every time I save the changes the phone reboots itself and restores the original file.

I've tried adb in recovery mode to push the edited file from my pc to my device, this appears to work but again when rebooted the original file is back.

I've tried adb file explorer but this will not find the /etc/ folder in the /system/ folder.

I'm running out of ideas, can anyone help?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] acolwill:
If I'm not mistaken, because the Desire isn't fully rooted (no access to /system) you are unable to make the modifications you are looking to do...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] neomagik:
Thanks acolwill,

I didn't realise you could only partially root a phone.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] goralpm:
HI

I was clean my XDA with software call "pocket mechanic"

And after delete temp files and clean registry, I can't install any software.

Any try finish after while with "install unsuccessful"

Any body help?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Hard reset:rolleyes:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] goralpm:
I don't want do it hard reset!

I have too much software, any other resolution?

What could be missing?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Kalgon5:
Yeah, and how can we know it if you don't even stated which windows mobile version are you using?

Also - make sure your device (actually, your wm version) is capable of runing software you are trying to install.

Anyway - just hard reset your device. It will be most likely impossible for us to guess what is missing. Propablly there is a big mess in your windows mobile now and I don't know of any method to return it to original state except of hard reset. It will be fastest method, and your software won't be deleted if you installed it on your sd/mmc card. Most of it will be still working too - you will only have to make shortcuts.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Simon_WM:
true, true
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] goralpm:
it is WM 5.0

I have CoPilot 7 installed

Do you think it will be working after hard reset?

(I have all software installed on SD Card 4GB)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Kalgon5:
No clue. But I'm pretty sure that installation will take much less efford and time that any attempts of fixing os.

Did you make sure, that it's not becouse of your os version, that you cannot install software? For example, try totall commander, if it won't install, then hard reset your device.

By the way, why not give wm6 a try? wm5 is in my opinion outdated, and the cooked wm6 roms are not really unstable or anything.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] goralpm:
unfortunately total commander not installed.

So, only hard reset left...

I will do it in next month cos I need CoPilot for few week now.

ps.

I have (I think I have) same backup from last September (:-o) do you think is worth try?

Any way thanks for reply it is nice to now is someone in "outer space" who try help you ;))
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Kalgon5:
I'm not sure. It depends of what backup contains.

If I were you, I would just leave device like it is for now. If you really can't afford to have CoPilot corrupted, then it's the best solution for now. Just do hard reset when you will be able to.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Simon_WM:
backup then hardrest...

the quickest way to work around the problem :rolleyes:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Simon_WM:
easyiest thing to do is: =]

Step 1: Start -> Settings --> System? --> ClearPhone / hardres

Step 2: type in: 1234

Step 3: What till the ROM has reloaded

Step 4: Formate your SD card to default settings But change the formate to: FAT32

Step 5: Reload Copilot 7, and see if the problem is fixed or persists

Have fun :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] goralpm:
OK, problem solved!

I made full backup, and reset my xda to factory seating and ROM.

Then I restored backup and every thing working very well now.

Thanks

These Are For WM 6.5.x Only!!!!!​

For Installing 6.5.x. See my Guide Here:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7199356&postcount=202​

Install sdkcerts First!!

This is a collection of start button icon cabs i made. They have been tested on Miri roms using the default HTC Black theme but there is no reason they will not work on others. They will not work with some custom softkey mods. This is due to the install location.

I have split the icons up into sections in the next few posts. I hope to add to them over time.

Any Suggestions are appreciated:)

The first is one based on my favorite chef's avatar. Miri!

Edit: I have started to pack the individual cabs into .zip packs to save space.

Now i have added a no border cab and a blank start button cab. So if you dont want the border for round ions etc you can install the no border cab and for a HD mini look, install the no border cab, and then the blank cab. See attached thumbnails​

Install Instructions:

1-Download from first 7 posts.

2-Extract .cab if in .zip format

3-Copy cab to device or Storage card.

4-Install to device.

5-Soft-Reset.

6-New start button icon:)

It appears that newer ROMs use a new version of HTC black theme. To make these icons work with newer ROMs a simple file rename needs to be made:

1 - Download and install WinCE cab manager Here: http://www.brothersoft.com/wince-cab-manager-download-86909.html

2 - Open the cab you would like to edit with WinCE cab manager.

3 - Click on files in the left plane.

4 - Right click on classicblue_bubble_flag.png and click properties.

5 - In the General tab rename classicblue_bubble_flag.png to HTCclassicblue_bubble_flag.png and apply then click OK.

6 - Click file and save. Job done install edited cab as usual.

Thanks to backlashsid for pointing out they no longer work on newer ROMs. I no longer own a WM device so have been unable to test on newer ROMs.
