[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnbhutch:
I am OMJ's Rom on my EVO rooted with toasts method plus the radio update and the led's under the front buttons are not working. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there an app that controls them that was removed?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pops_G:
The lights will be off when the phone is plugged in and charging.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Supermighty:
When exactly are the lights under the four soft buttons supposed to be on?

On my EVO (novatec 003, stock) I have noticed an inconstancy in when they light up. Sometimes they light up when I unlock my phone, sometimes they don't. Sometimes they turn on later, sometimes they don't turn on at all.

This doesn't seem normal to me. What are other's experience with this?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peepeesea:
they are controled with the light sensor and should be on in low light situations and off in bright lights. you can test this by covering the light sensor to the right of the HTC logo on top of the device.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Supermighty:
Thank you @peepeesea that was it exactly. Which is more hi-tech that I gave them credit for.

Also as a side note, since I've been reading the xda forums I feel like a phone hypochondriac. Everythings broken!! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] djoanes:
There was a hack earlier that allowed n1 to record 720p video. Apparently now it's official. Would something like this be possible on our hero?

http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-one-720p-video-recording
[Hero, G2 Touch General] spooke:
I wouldnt think 720p, but something like 640x480 might be possible :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Deleted member 2453909:
i think that hero hw specs are far from 720p requirements.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kad3t:
My old N95 could do it so I suppose Hero can as well... That said N95 had a custom dedicated graphic chip and Hero's Adreno engine's integrated into CPU and not as powerfull, but everything else seems to be much more than N95 has, so some kind of compensation should be possible to get the camera to record 640x480.

I don's see anyone ever giving a shot at it, though. They're too busy cooking ROMs. ^__^
[Hero, G2 Touch General] djoanes:
oh well, i'm happy with 2.1 :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Deleted member 2453909:
maybe audio recording codec can be improved, i don't know how, but a rom that include this feature will be much appreciated as it would enable a "new" usage of hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Cusciolino:
Oh Yes!!

This is the greatest problem of HTC Hero!!

Horrible audio rec and Horrible video rec!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lambstone:
I don't see your point. What do you mean? Or are you just threadjacking to promote your rom ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rafi300:
Would love to see 720P on our HERO's , if not at least 640x480 wouldnt be bad either... Get on hacking the kernel for our camera to record HD style now devs!!

Hanser01, Radug, behnaam,... ;) waiting for you people to develop in your ROMS :)

720p is the future for our HEROS, not Froyo :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lambstone:
Correction 720p WITH froyo. Best of both worlds.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dipje:
the recording isn't the issue..It's the saving :).

Our Hero doesn't has the power to compress the video to anything worth watching if you go above 352x288... the framerate is already low as it is.

So in _theory_ you could make a 640x480, 1280x720 or even higher capture tool. But it has nowhere to dump it's data.

Anything compression scheme that has low enough cpu requirements, probably generates too much bandwidth to be writable, even if you have a high-speed SD card. And I'm ignoring the storage-requirements with this.

Use the NDK to create a simple MJPEG or HuffyUV saver... and write an Android app that uses that NDK library to compress raw 640x480 images and write it to the SD card in any workable format.

I don't know if this works, I don't even know if the SDK exposes direct-camera access.. if it worked, the amount of data generated would be a couple of MB's for just a few seconds of video.

Doesn't sound usable, so it doesn't sound wise to invest the time.

A 'kernel hack' is out of the question with the Hero, I hope you guys realize that thinking a hack like that could work on the Hero is just plain stupid.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] therevell:
The legend has 640x480 video and a 600 mhz processor. Heros can be clocked to above 700 mhz.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sizanx:
The top Pentium 4 CPU was clocked to 3.8GHz, and a Core2Duo E6600 is clocked to 2.2GHz but it's still faster. Clock doesn't mean anything if the CPU aren't based on the same architecture, which Legend and Hero aren't.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dipje:
Well, the legend and hero are the same Cpu architect actually. So the 600mhz 7227 in the legend is almost the same as our 518mhz 7200. The Droid / milestone for example is way (WAY) faster at 550mhz than the legend's 600mhz.

Anyway, why is 640x480 possible on the legend and at least very difficult on the hero?

The 7227 SoC is quite different ! It's flash controller is way faster, and more important: it has (more) hardware accelerated media functions (better media support chip in the package) .

The hero doesn't have a chip like that, so it has to do it completely on the CPU, where the legend has (limited ) hardware support / acceleration .
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lambstone:
Clock speed does mean something. Your example isn't that correct. The 3.8ghz P4 only has 1 core whereas the Core2Duo has 2 cores each running 2.2ghz so that's like a total of 4.4ghz.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] RaduG:
Sorry for the offtopic, but @info5i2002, don't say something you are far from knowing. It does not matter how many cores you have since the "clock speed" does not add up. E6600 is 2.2GHz. This means it has two cores running at 2.2GHz. You can't say it's running at 4.4GHz. And the high-end P4 was dual-core. P4 6xx I think. And also, you can compare clock-per-clock performance only when you're comparing CPUs with the same architecture.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lambstone:
I ain't saying that the clockspeed add up together. What I'm saying is that it is akin to having a combined clockspeed of 4.4ghz. Its like how a dual core 1ghz is still somewhat slower than a single core 3ghz.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] RaduG:
Clock speed is not the only important thing when you compare two CPUs, the CPU architecture is extremely important too.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lambstone:
Yes yes, I understand that too. Like how ARM Cortex A8 is so much better than say our ARM11 processor (i think its 11)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] sanpei:
what someone said is wrong...

HERO/and Sapphire 32A could have 640x480 recording, because MSM7200 has a QDSP5 inside it. and recording is proceeded by VFE functions and not by CPU.

and it is tested with a legend port on Sapphire 32A, yes the fps is low, but I think that it could be improved, if we could get better camera libs and apps to proceed the output frames (which are from hardware and redirected to userspace by Camera kernel driver) faster.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dipje:
Care for the difference between 7200 and 7200a (and others) being used. The whole msm7200 SoC is licensed in different forms. There are boards out there (and AFAIK being used by HTC) that don't have the whole media possibilities. This was the huge storm when the Tytn2 came out (first device with the 7200 I believe) and leaded to the search for better drivers and multimedia support.

the QDSP5000 (not 5 :)) can in theory supply 30fps VGA clips, but it can do only 'video conferencing' up to 15fps. The thing is, I thought not all boards had the QDSP5000, but they all had the minimum 4000 version. And our Heroes weren't using the full 7200 package, hence the missing multimedia VGA support.

I'm looking at a PDF with the spec sheet and chip layout right now, and I remember seeing exactly the same version image, but with Qualcomm backgrounds and the word 'optional' next to the QDSP5000 :).

The 7227 board (used in the Legend) only has one version.

Anyway, please please prove me wrong because it's always nice to get an update like VGA recording :).
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Mikeytjee:
Soooo is it possible or isn't it possible? :P
[Hero, G2 Touch General] BorderlineVX:
One could excuse the crappy video quality easier if at least the audio would be perfect (like it is on my old N82). But with video capabilities of the last century + 5khz audio sampling (are they using the phone codec?) it is hard to still love the Hero.

BorderlineVX
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kad3t:
I'm actually curious myself as the discussion seems to be spliting towards both camps that it is and that it's not possible. ^__^

Let's wait and see. There's plenty of Hero magicians here that can do things that HTC devs never dreamd possible, so I am hoping for the best. ^__^
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Mikeytjee:
Let's hope so:D
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Mikeytjee:

Getting an EVO Friday, so I had a question -

After I get the phone, do I have a trial period where I can return the phone for a full refund and cancel my contract? If so, how long? I'm moving from TMobile to Sprint, so yeah - and with the new iPhone on the horizon I just want to know if I had this option.

Thanks, I'd appreciate if anyone had a answer for me

Hi Folks

With a lot lot difficulty I got this to connect to a WPA-PSK TKIP connection. The router is a netgear - one thats 802.11n capable.

I get IP address from the router so the HTC will show IP e.g. 192.168.1.4

. But the router lists the device as unknown and does not reveal its IP on the router page under "attached devices".

When I try internet explorer I cannot connect.

I did not yet try to change the ROM. Would it matter - what is the ROM.

Initially it would not even connect over a WPA2-PSK connection - though my router supports both WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK connections.

I am totally frustrated. Can someone help.

Also I tried this too - I FORCED it to take a static IP e.g. 192.168.1.25 and put the DNS IP addresses to that I found on the router that belonged to my ISP . ( what ever DNS the router will show me - and thats given by ISP )

Yet No Luck . I can't get on line even though I can connect to Wi-Fi.

Is there a launcher or setting that does that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Teh Dust:
With my 30 free days of Sprint service coming to an end soon I wanted to use my Evo on T-Mobiles network. I tested making and recieving calls and sms through SIP and Google voice on my home network and it works great, all thats left is to tether the Evo to my G1. To my surprise it does not work.

What will it take to get the Evo to recognize Ad-Hoc networks? Cyanogen's roms can do this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sirchuk:
I think there are a few threads around already talking about the EVO's lack of ability to connect to ad-hoc networks. I don't know of a fix as of yet though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tyrnight:
wait, what? you got the Evo to work on TMO? am I reading this wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Teh Dust:
I got the evo to receive calls and sms over wifi. If I can tether it to the G1 than yes, it would be on T-Mo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tyrnight:
problem is, in this case, if your already using wifi for your connection, you cant use it for tethering.. its already in use for another purpose(wifi).

Im still astounded by the TMO effect in this thread.. since this is a CDMA phone and you would need a GSM phone to talk to TMO. So since the cell radio isn't used your gonna be out of luck unless you tether via USB or BT.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nenn:
perhaps everyone is reading this wrong, ot its just me.

His evo is NOT on the TMO cellular network. Its not possible.

His calls and sms are through wifi probably google voice or a SIP provider. Through his home network, NOT TMO.

tmo uses GSM and EVO (sprint) uses CDMA.

to OP ive not tried ad-hoc with my phone so im sorry i have nothing to report to ya. GL
[EVO 4G Android Development] Teh Dust:
To reduce the ammount of WTF T-Mobile responses and clarify what I am trying to do. Here is a quick overview.

I got my Evo at I/O, it came with a month of Sprint service and that month is almost up. I do not want to switch to Sprint nor do I want to stop using this great device so I have found a way to use the phone without a carrier.

What needs to be done first is making and recieving calls. The Google Voice app does not currently allow calls to be placed over wifi so I need a work around for this. The work arround is to tie my Google Voice number to my Gizmo5 account which will let me access Google Voice via SIP. I then use the app SIPDroid to access my Gizmo5 account and make calls from Google Voice over Wifi. Done.

Next is SMS. Google Voice for Android allows you to make and place SMS over Wifi. Done.

Lastly is data. The Evo has wifi. Done.

With all of this I can use the phone compleatly over a WiFi network. But now I want to make the phone mobile.

I have a G1 on T-Mobile's network. It is rooted and running a custom build which allows me to do nothing but use the phone as a WiFi hotspot for a good day on the battery. The app being used to tether is WiFi Tether for Root Users.

The problem is the G1's hotspot is Ad-Hoc and currently the Evo (Stock Android in general.) can not connect to Ad-Hoc networks without modifications such as the ones done in Cyanogen Mod. If theese mods are duplicated for a rom on the Evo I will be able to use my Evo where ever I go without the need of a carrier.

Hope that cleared everything up. :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] dotster:
I don't know if you have a Nexus One but I just checked and the EVO can tether to the Nexus One's FroYo hotspot feature (over 3G).
[EVO 4G Android Development] jeremycindy07:
Sprint

I think the reasoning behind the ROM for the EVO not being able to do this is because Sprint plans to charge for this service down the road and so you would get an app either from them or the market but it would only allow connection if you paid for the service on your plan. Much like how carriers plan to charge to let your phone be a wifi hotspot.

I may be wrong but that makes sense to me, if they can make money off a feature, they will... :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
this is quite clever. i would interested in seeing how you setup gizmo5, sipdroid, google voice, etc to do all calls over WiFi. i have a gizmo5 account and google voice.

im thinking of it going in the other direction, there is a mod for the EVO hopefully soon to be integrated to the wifi tether app which lets the EVO wifi tether work in infrastructure mode, outside of ad-hoc mode.

Could the G1 use this app or something similar to broadcast outside of ad-hoc mode on infrastructure mode? more devices would be able to use the G1 also ... just an idea.

the ability for the EVO to connect to infrastructure networks instead of just ad-hoc networks seems reasonable. perhaps somebody familar with cyanogen's work could look at porting this function over to the EVO?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JBaughb:
Doesn't canceling your Sprint trial involve you returning the EVO? The subsidized cost you got in the phone was for signing up for service. No service means you return the phone or buy it at MSRP.

how to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!

0. please make sure you already flashed stock ROM and radio, because stock SPL flash is *always* the last step before sending the device in.

1. Download the Relocker attachment, extract the zip and run the EXE on your PC

2. if you wish to replace RUU_Signed.NBH that got extracted, feel free to do so, but not necessary (this Hard-SPL will only allow overwrite with a SPL signed by our custom cert). the included one is the 0.79.0000 stock SPL. you also have the option for 0.84.0000 and 0.87.0000, see the attachments. (in the above mentioned url)

and 0.88.0000, see the attachments. (My original SPL added)

3. flash

4. verify if it flashed by checking version in tricolour screen, it should say 0.79.0000 (or 0.84.0000 or 0.87.0000 or 0.88.0000), not 0.85.OliNex.
