You are correct--720p is 1280x720 and the EVO's screen is 800x480. So it will play 720p video, but scaled down to fit the EVO's screen resolution.

As far as playing video on the EVO screen, I think it will play any resolution (although you may get performance issues at very high resolutions) but scaled to fit the screen.

quite a fan of this myself anydvd HD isnt cheap tho unless ur using cracked version they had update for avatr BD day after it was out worked great for me i have over 1.7TB of movies and TV shows in mkv or avi mostly mkv h264 i would like to play on my Evo when it comes in is there a like VLC or KMplayer type that will play these files on the android OS if anyone does know of such software whether paid or free id appreciate it
[EVO 4G General] ChrisDos:
It's not cheap, but I figure that is the cost of having the freedom to copy blu-ray to my other devices. It would be nice though if it was a one time cost, but alas it is not.

In order to use the device as a Wifi spot for 'up to five connections' as sprint claims. do you have to pay the extra 29.99$ (or w/e it is) for the PAM plan? or is this an Android software utility that comes built into the device?

I currently run AT&T's HTC TILT 2 with a WinMo Vanilla rom, i've installed "CM Internet Sharing" and it works wonderfully. Allowing me to connect my laptop (etc), without causing an extra data charge.

I want to make sure before I switch to Sprint, that i will not be limited in this "free" source of mobile wifi i have been using of late.

Please assist :D Thnx
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] looneylu:
sprint has their own wifi service they would like their subscribers to use. however, most of us on this forum, have rooted our devices and are using wifi tether for wifi access. This circumvents having to pay $30 a month to use our devices as a wifi hotspot.

Hi people, I have just purchased an HD2 Vodafone Spain, and I wanted to know if it is possible (just as in the Xperia X2), to change the region settings, in order to be able to flash a different language ROM, through the official HTC program?

I know that if I want to use custom ROMs, I need to hard_spl first, and then choose one, to flash, BUT if I want to use an official lets say Portuguese language ROM, can I do it without the spl, just changing the region settings of the phone and let HTC software do the rest?

Thank you all for your help.

[XPERIA X10 General] aqw955:
Well... this is a persisting issue of X10 for a long long long long long long period of time, and we are just getting tired of answering this kind of question.

Simply because the manufacturer locked the device, so the devs need to "root" (unlock) the device before installing any unofficial rom. Our beloved X10 cannot be rooted at the moment, so we cannot install any unofficial rom on it.

For why it cannot be rooted, please dont ask us, ask Sony. :p

Does anybody knows how to change the default color of the different calendars. These colors are used to differ the entries from different calendars such as goolge, exchage, weeknummbers.

I found that in 2.2 exchange entries are getting a color which is hardly readable (bad contrast). For 2.1 it was o.k to me.

I know that for "Cal widget" the default values can be changed but for "calendar pad pro" as well a the stadard calendar application the color can not be selected in setting.

That's a bit weird, there is no automount option.

Normally you have to pull down the notification bar, tap on USB and tap mount. Unless it's 2.2, in which case you get a huge screen with a mount button.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
What exactly is it that makes you think you have leak-V3?

Check your bootloader version (power phone up holding Vol-down+End/Power).

If it says 1.47.xxxx (S-ON), you can root

if it says 1.49.xxxx (S-OFF), you have already rooted

if it says 1.49.xxxx (S-ON), you have put a "leak" (V1, V2, or V3) on your phone and can not root.

Then, reboot and look at Settings->About phone->Software information. If you put a leak on there, you should be able to decipher which one it was by looking at this post on Androidforums.com

Note that you can not tell the difference between the OTA-2.1 and Leak-V3 from the O/S software information alone - determine that by looking at the bootloader (HBOOT) Version number and security status (S-OFF vs. S-ON).

bftb0
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crax0r:
I have HBOOT 1.49 and I have S-OFF and I'm currently not rooted.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
There is only a single 1.49 S-OFF bootloader "in the wild" - and it is from the ROOT ROM.

That does not mean that you must have a rooted OS on top of it - you can "root" the Eris, in the sense of installing that very bootloader (1.49 S-OFF), and then back-install any OS you like on top of it (manually).

For instance, I have had stock 1.5 running on my phone for experiments, but with the root (1.49 S-OFF) bootloader sitting there as the bootloader. The "O/S" is not "rooted" - but the bootloader is there which would allow me to write anything I want to the phone. So, calling that "not rooted" is semantically accurate - if you are only talking about the OS on top.

Having said that, there is not a single chance that you have 1.49 S-OFF on your phone without it having been touched by the root-PB00IMG.zip HTC ROM at one point or another in its past. Either that or you work for HTC.

can this be rooted?

And why/how do I have Hboot 1.46 with 2.1 I havn't done anything but the OTA
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Yes.

Your phone has the 1.46 bootloader precisely because it is an "older" phone (in relative terms), and also because it has only seen OTAs in it's operating history - the OTA process for the Eris has never replaced the bootloader. (There have been 3 OTAs now, and none of them replace the bootloader.)

Good luck with the rooting!

[Desire General] chrisjroyce:
Oooh, I think I'll be rooting very soon for this then!!
[Desire General] Phorz:
Judging by the quality of the sample video, its pretty clear why HTC never enabled 720p on these cameras, it just isnt real 720p, its just upscaling the already mediocre video quality of the camera to a higher resolution, which results in even more fragments and color distortion.

I seriously do not understand why people freak out because of this.
[Desire General] 007shaolin:
Post up video, before and after?

We could post up videos, before upscaling and after upscaling, that would be very interesting.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
tbh, it's not exactly the reason I bought a Desire...it's a phone so as long as it can make calls and receive SMS messages it fulfills it's purpose IMO. Email, Internet, etc. are just bonuses :)
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
I guess if that is the video mode doing 720p it would annoy people as they said it would be included in a future update, so you would only expect it to be proper hd recording.
[Desire General] El Massman:
Not entirely sure about that. It's well known that the HTC cameras don't work very well in low light conditions and unless I've missed one, all the sample videos are taken indoors without a decent light source. I'm not saying you're wrong, it could very well be as you said. I'd just recommend withholding judgement until we've seen a sample taken under optimal conditions. It'd be great to have 720p even if it only works outdoors in blazing sunshine.

[Desire General] MacCarron:
It would be nice to have the original recorded video to properly analyze it..if this whole 720p thing is some sort of upscale imho it is pretty useless..
[Desire General] GlenH:
Since the camera's (alleged) native resolution is 5 megapixels (ie. has way more than 720 lines), there is no theoretical need for upscaling (in fact you could go much higher than 720p without upscaling.

If the camera actually isn't 5 megapixel (and upscales photos to that resolution), then who knowsif it's worth it....
[Desire General] hensk:
I think this is next step what dev guys will give us,supprise
[Desire General] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
Why would you get a smartphone just to make calls and send text. Plenty of decnt feature phones serve that purpose. Personally I don't use the camera on a phone and it's not a selling point. But beng able to hack my phone to take 720 video would be cool, even if I'm not going to use it. It's about the being able to and having fun. Also showing off to all my mates who have closed iToys! ;-)

Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
[Desire General] ZoZo2:
720p is less than 1mp, so even if the camera were 1.3mp, it could still do 720p without upscaling.

5mp is more than twice as much as 1080p, the real limitation is processing power for encoding and storage space.
[Desire General] Phorz:
Well, while you are right in some ways, you are so wrong from a technical point of view. Capturing Video is a totally different story than taking photos because taking a picture with autofocus every 2-3 seconds, and capturing 25-30 pictures every second... you cannot compare that, so dont let yourself be blindfolded by megapixels. The size of the CCD elements, and the time theyre exposed to light PLUS the optics is what makes pictures/videos. And when you look at the size of those things in a mobile phone, you get the idea why smartphones are still miiiiiiles away from even midclass digital cameras...

Which one do I copy & paste in startup folder, OCT_RUN or OCT_RUN.exe?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] 5318008:
This is possibly a very dumb question, but are you guys having problems with this OC app, after completely disabling all the other stuff first (NetRipper's, scripts, etc.?)

It looks to me like the program and all shortcuts force-install to main memory with no option for SD install, but the startup shortcut still has to be manually copied, so here's my personal suggestion. Copy the startup shortcut to the SD card, then make a shortcut to *that* in your Windows' startup folder. That way everything but one shortcut still resides in main memory, and removing SD before reboot should still stop it from loading. Or manually move the whole program folder from main to SD storage? I don't know really, but it looks like it's a run-once thing and doesn't need to keep referencing any local files, so shouldn't make much difference where the app or its shortcuts are, as long as you've got a failsafe-boot option somehow.

I put the OCT_RUN.exe, of which there appear to be two copies (one in the Start Menu and one in the Start Menu's OCT folder) in the Startup folder. Both copies of OCT_RUN.exe appear to be .lnk shortcut files pointing back to OCT_RUN, which is the main .exe. The OS is just hiding the extensions from view. It seems the OCT_RUN files in the Start Menu are the main program files, installed there rather than to the Program Files folder. *shrug*

And hey, if you haven't thought of it already, probably a good idea to disable all your other OC stuff before trying this new one out!!!! Just sayin'. EDIT: And maybe just run the executable a while to make sure you're stable before dropping a shortcut in Startup. ALSO EDIT: Anybody using SPB Pocket Plus has access to the awesome (in my opinion anyways) 'Safe Mode' where it'll offer the option to boot w/ all Startup items disabled if two reboots are detected in 3 minutes. Good for testing this kind of stuff. It's a pay program, but if anyone has it already, maybe consider activating Safe Mode.

Hi,

thanks for testing/using the programm and for all reports so far.

There are 2 users reporting reboot loops, both with Sprint ROMs, so there is work to do.

I will release an updated version, which should prevent the reboot loop, but I doubt that this alone makes the OC run on Sprints.

First...when you try these kind of tools if you brick your machine you are the only one responsible for it (yeah that's a pain to admit but it's the painful truth (Trust me I bricked a phone and fried a PC before so I know what I am talking about))

Second... this software is designed for TP2 and has been advertised only for TP2. Trying it on another device is at your own experimenting risk

Last: trying to help you. have you tried Task29 ? Just in case the overclock corrupted something in your Imagio... That could help. And then flash a stock Rom. Just to try...
