thx for the app suggestions, I will try them all

as for the above instructions... each site I try to grab 2.2 from.. says it no longer exists? thx

here is the update

here is how you update it without rooting.

you're welcome :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amritttt:
well i just found a video this might help installing froyo there is other way aswell but first get to know everything about stock phone then froyo it:D

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
froyo IS stock, lol.

may as well have him getting used to the new toy. you don't need to unlock the bootloader to do this, let alone get root access.

warranty is intact with my method. play with the new OS. you'll like it more anyway
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Kakarot:
thx bro, I agree... if I can do it without voiding warranty.... I will be all over it, once sober ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Kakarot:
also, is this backed as working? lol... this scares me, alas cause I am a few beer in... and it says:

(I HAVEN'TE DONE THIS YET AND THIS COULD POSSIBLY RESULT IN A BRICKED DEVICE EVEN THOUGH THE DOWNLOAD IS FROM GOOGLE.. BE CAREFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!):
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Kakarot:
I get some weird e: cant open cache recover command

error in sdcardupdate.zip status7 aborted

i tried 10 times now, redownloading the file, extracting it, having it named .zip, just update... at the install part, it goes about 20% and gives the above error? should this work on a rogers phone? not sure what else I could be doing wrong.. unless the image is no good? thx
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
What build are you currently running? Find that from your Settings --> About phone menu.... Build will be one of the last options at the bottom. I believe that update.zip is for updating from ERE27 to FRF50. Being on a Rogers phone, you might be running EPE54 (or something similiar). There should be some information around the forum for updating from EPE54 --> ERE27, and from there you can update to FRF50. Should be able to do all this without unlocking the bootloader.

EDIT: Did some more looking around.... looks like you would have to unlock the bootloader in order to flash the ERE27 update for your phone... which means it looks like you can't get FroYo running on your phone without voiding the warranty.

Sorry :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluezz:
You mentioned in one of the first few posts that "also, should I have mentioned it is a *rogers 3g phone (att&t)" which means your nexus one build is EPE54B (like me) and sadly there is no way you can get the unofficial Froyo without unlocking the bootloader (voids warranty).

Like codesplice mentioned "you would have to unlock the bootloader in order to flash the ERE27 update for your phone".

This long thread goes over the this problem in detail: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=686613
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Kakarot:
figured as much, after failing multiple times... I will just wait then, not in a big hurry to void the warranty. thx

and you are correct :/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Kakarot:
wow, a week or 2 has come and gone... what is going on? I just want to try 2.2, lol....

If I flash to that other version and then update... what happens once the official update comes out? Is it pretty easy/safe?

thx

Hi,

I am new to Android (from winmo) and can't find any thread here to my problem. How to configure to let Desire connect to 3G automatically when the application I am using need to use the internet? For now, I need to manually connect to my 3G network before i use the internet.

Thanks.
[Desire General] sh500:
You may want to check 'Wireless & networks' in Settings, then ensure Mobile Network is on (obviously) and check the option under Mobile networks and check that 'Enable always-on mobile data..' is also on.
[HD2 General] glcK23:
Hey games, I have an HD2 with T-Mobile's latest rom. Also tried this on NRG's 6.5.5 rom.

Device: HD2 is stable, very stable, rarely crashes, no problems besides the one described below.

Problem: Sometimes when playing games, you get a call or minimizing the games causes the device to lock-up when relaunching the game via the task manager.

Has this happened to anyone else ?
[HD2 General] glcK23:
I must have the rarest phone to have this only happen to me lol...
[HD2 General] glcK23:
So no one has had any kind of crashes or lockups with this phone?
[HD2 General] speoples20:
Games typically use most of your phone resources so its not for it strange for it to lock up when you do something else.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
cool beta - I hope that with this app can be supported more portals than only this one like tube8.

Search works,but "play" as also "save" doesn't work.

fot play it tries to open tcpmp instead of core player,and tcpmp can't handle it.

For "save" it opens opera9, and not my opera10.no flash there.

I didn't find anything to configure it to core player or opera10.

thanx for the 1st release

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bboyalan:
It installed and opened fine on my TP2. The search feature works, but the "play" and "save" options do not work as mentioned above. It tries to save using my Opera10 browser where I receive a "403 - Forbidden" page. It tries to play on TCPMP but "Could not open URL!" even when setup as suggested here:

Hopefully this feedback will help you :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chelsea_fc:
future request add xhamster :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Thanks for the feedback guys.

It sounds like I need to change the way it finds the installed video player. I already have an idea how I should have done that, so I will make that change.

It also sounds like I didn't account for people having default browsers other than IE, so I'll take care of that as well.

As far as adding additional sites, that is definitely in my plans. My first priority is to get it working properly with one site, and once that is done, I don't expect it will take too much to add additional sites.

I'll try and get an update out later tonight.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mistaagress:
sounds very good .. because dont working on samsung omnia.. :-( searchin yes playing no but i have tcpmp , coreplayer installed

best regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
I'm always happy to see this sort of project :) WVD was one of a kind but it seems to have died out without leaving it's source behind.

I've not been able to use your app though... I get a "Cannot start process because a file name has not been provided" message... Don't have a clue about the cause...

As for suggestion go:

1- Add Youtube support... With WVD gone we either use GETYTV to download or YouTubePlay to view (I won't count the official app as it sucks, HTC app as I'm on a Samsung or CorePlayer as they lost all my consideration when they killed TCPMP to turn profit)...

2- Add catergory browsing to all websites.

3- Adapt/fix the resolution (currently it seems to expect for all devices to be VGA...). My device shows only 1 image per line (as oposed with your screenshot).

4- About the app structure I suggest the one thing I've always suggested when it comes to this sort of app: make it in such a way that one can add and maintain websites using external text based files (xml and the likes). Websites will constantly change and people will nag the dev ad nauseam for updates (reading the WVD thread it's easy to see this)... This way maybe other people can contribute.

PS: About TCPMP versions do try the one in my signature... It's basically a bundle of bimbam69 (link in my signature) with rmvb plugin. Make sure you delete TCPMP registry key before you use any new version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
A generic approach that can be maintained without code changes would be great. Unfortunately, most sites (other than YouTube) do not provide a consistent API or WebService to access the videos. So you are kind of at the mercy of the site layout. I will think about ways to make the app easy to update though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
2 - is in the plans.

3 - is also in the plans as soon as I figure out how to detect the resolution of the device. This is my first Windows Mobile App. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wardh:
Works great on HD2 with Coreplayer 1.3.6. Good video quality. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Wow, I'm glad it works for you. I was beginning to think I was the only one. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
This means it can't find Coreplayer or TCPMP on your device. Not that they aren't there, just that the app is looking in the wrong spot.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wardh:
I installed it on phone memory (same with CP) if that matters...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
getscreenx() and getscreeny() are the commands, you find them at msdn.

but: for vga and wvga it's needed that you made your app Highres-aware, otherwise you would get the false results.it's described at msdn how you easy do this (only add a resource)

please consider that most people have opera9 and 10 at the same time.also tcpmp and core player.sometimes in main storage, sometimes on storage card - and all of this language dependent. therefore a choose by user is better than an automatic detection.

just ask, if need something.I think we all had/still have to find out the "specialties" of winmo :)

thanx for your hard work

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
Impressive first app

You've got a hell of a first project here :)

Indeed most web video sites don't like to publish the API... But if you're looking for some examples the GoTube scripts (javascript) and XMBC scripts (python) may be of assistance.

About the running error it may be indeed the failure in detecting the players. I have TCPMP but my system is not English (and my SD drive has a name with uncommon chars which means full unicode support is needed). An easy temporary solution would be adding an options page where one can browse for the player exe.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zinconnu:
Works for me too, thanks..!:)

I've WinMo 6.1.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Thanks for the comments!

The XBMC links are interesting. My approach isn't too far off.

Yes, a non-English system would be an issue for the way I implemented player detection. I'll definitely rework that part of the application.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] captobie:
Works as advertised on my TP2. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frmariam:
About the player detection

I remebered how WVD did it.... WVD doesn't quite detect the player... It writes an m3u file with the url and sends an open command. This way the link opens in whatever player is associated with m3u files.

PS:You can check code from WVD.exe using Reflector.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Yes, I saw that's what WVD did. I am going to try to get the player path from the registry entries for 3GP and FLV associations. If that doesn't work out, I may try the m3u approach.

Thanks for the Reflector link. That may come in handy.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nehpets:
Got a question.

When I was using WVD, I had no problem playing flv files on my TCPMP. For reasons I don't understand, I can't get them to open with the latest mVu.

Will the TCPMP-fix file I downloaded elsewhere on this thread open up mVu flv capabilities? Or should I just install the latest TCPMP player (from the same post I got the fix-file from)? (Whoever you are, thank you!!!) Or is this a fix that the next update may solve?

The flv files I am downloading are good. They play on my laptop. They just don't on my TCPMP player. 3gp files, from the one site where they are available, play perfectly on TCPMP.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Can you browse to the site with a web browser? For example, can you browse to http://www.tube8.com? Sounds like something is blocking the site...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Which site? If it's YouTube try one of the older flv formats. There are some links in earlier posts in this thread to a version of TCPMP that seems to work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] carhigh:
Just trying this out. I noticed that the search button is not disapearing when i go to another page, such as the downloading page or if i got back to the search results page. The search button is shown on those pages
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Strange. I haven't seen that myself and haven't heard of anyone else with that issue. What kind of device are you using? Which version of Windows Mobile?

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
I should have another new version out this week sometime. The major new piece will be enhancements to the download functionality with a preliminary download manager that will allow you to download multiple files at the same time. There will be some other minor fixes as well.

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nehpets:
Thanks. I DL'ed that TCPMP version along with the fix file. After your next update, if I still have the flv issues, I'll give it a try. I'm slow to change because until now I've been happy with my current version of TCPMP. It took a lot of screwing around with add-ons and fixes to get it to its present form.

Which site (has the flv problems)? Actually, all of them. None of the flv Saves or Plays from mVu work with my WM6.1 Touch Pro -- except the Tube8 3GPs. Like I said, all the flv files from WVD and YouTubePlay (another downloader with an MP3-extract option built in) still play OK when I watch them and as DLs.

Also, I'm able to view all mVu downloads on my laptop, convert the file formats, send them back to my TP, and then play them from there.

I'll get it worked out eventually. I'm still really enthusiastic about your app and your ongoing dedication to improving it!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
The new version (0.7.3.0) crashes, or all versions crash? The only major changes between 0.7.2.0 and 0.7.3.0 are related to the download manager, and so should not cause any problems when not downloading.

It should give you an error message when it crashes. Did you see any messages?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zahurtex:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nehpets:
TCPMP suggestion please

The latest 7.3 version rocks. The Downloader additions are great. mVu has come a long way and I am ready to make it my dedicated viewer/downloader.

For full functionality though, I need to install a newer TCPMP player.

I downloaded and have files for:

TCPMP & Master Codec Pack 5 (Zero no-skins version)

TCPMP Tekla version

TCPMP-bimbam69-rmvb

And TCPMP-0.72RC2-ARM-WM6-latest

All seem to be the latest versions linked from this thread. Would anyone like to suggest the best one to install in my TP/WM6.1?

I understand that I need to uninstall my present player and remove the TCPMP entry from HKLM-Software in my registry. I am not a noob but I'm a long way from being an expert! I have the latest ffmpeg pack also DL'd but I'd prefer an all-in-one installation. Skins options not needed...

TIA.

Did you set the file associations in TCPMP for .3gp, .mp4, and Flash Video?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Using the latest release on my att tilt2 device running sense 2.1 on 21000 series build. Works great except downloading is odd. When downloading it starts off great with up to 70kb/sec! Then it dwindles down of course and settles around 15-20kb/sec. Then about half way through the download i get an error saying another app is trying to use the file or cannot find the file? Im saving to sd card if that makes a difference. So all in all i cant download the full file. These are from pornhub and files around 60mb so u can imagine how crappy it is for me to wait forver just to get to 30mb downloaded to get an error and only have half the vid!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
CorePlayer Settings?

Whats the best settings for att tilt2 device? Stock buffering sucks, plays maybe 10-15sec of a vid then has to load again! I upped the buffering to 8000kb and still no difference! Even tried microbuffer mode but still no better.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] imakul8:
Good tip. I never set the file associations for CorePlayer. Now that I have, no more Win32Exception error. Youtube video plays wonderfully in high quality. Of course, there are some video that will not play even with all file associations selected. This is to be expected. I did a test by disabling all file associations and it always results in "could not find video player" error. It is crucial to set the file associations. At this point, I'm satisfied with mVu.:D

Just wanted to first say that this is an amazing app and is much faster and smoother than WVD! It also does not take any CPU resources when idling :) I promise to donate something as soon as I can!

I'm not sure if it is just me, but while using v0.7.4.0 and finishing a "Save" download, mVu gives a system notification and only has the option to "Hide". The notification stays in my queue and will not let me dismiss it. Is this fixable/removable? It could just be my ROM, but just wanted to throw it out there. Running WM6.5 with Sense 2.1.

As a request, after a "Save" download, can there be an option to disable the vibrate?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
You're right, I wasn't removing the notifications. The next version will remove the notification from the queue when you hide it.

As far as turning off the vibrate, maybe someone else knows of a way to disable vibration on notifications. I'm thinking it's an all or nothing thing. You couldn't disable vibrations just for mVu notifications.

-- bik2000
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bik2000:
Is it faster if you download to phone memory instead of an SD card? I find when I save to my SD card it's much slower than saving to phone memory. I probably need a faster SD card. I've also noticed that pausing and resuming the download seems to give it a speed kick.

-- bik2000

Guys, I found this setting in particular affects Youtube playing. Go to CorePlayer>menu>tools>settings>select page>file associations and make sure

'MPEG4 files(MP4,MOV,3GP,M4A,M4B,K3G,MQ)' is enabled. I thought checking the

FLV box was sufficient, but would always get the error. This should remedy your problem.:)
