I also tried Ndrive, but the new version just does not want to run ... The old one (9.X) is running but it can't get GPS lock with the new radio... Catch 22 :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vudiq:
If it helps, NDrive 10 works in Radu's VanillaEclair 4.0, which is based on CM 5.0.7 (stable). Maybe it is just a library failure... As I'm leaving this evening and will need navigation, will have to switch back to VanillaEclair, but will come back to your ROM next week or so...

Good luck with development :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Elemag:
The update is up now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Thanks for the update! I'll download it directly to my phone so that I don't have to plug in the USB cable and reset the battery usage status. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] szalay16:
u should try Igo it works very well :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vudiq:
But keep in mind that downloading such file may eat up of the battery... I guess less via wifi (as it takes shorter), I usualy download via EDGE and it "eats" about 5-10% :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
The whole update progress, including a Nandroid backup ate 5% of battery, from 95% to 90%.

When I first started I got a warning "Process System is not responding". I clicked Wait and nothing seems broken. Also, did you fix the Wifi not sleeping?

EDIT: Restarting reseted the battery status. Before that I went from 100% to 95% in 6 hours with 10% running. Seems pretty good to me. :)

wired tethering

Same issue here. Same message "cannot create /sys/devices/virtual/usb_composite/rndis/enable: directory nonexistent".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I had a chance to do some testing outside, with clear sky and close to 30°C. :cool:

GPS:

- Google Maps takes a long time to get a position fix, around 20 seconds. After that it works faster though.

- Camera didn't get a GPS fix

- When exiting the two programs, the GPS icon stayed in the menu bar flickering for some time.

Camera:

- There is a time stamp on every picture, which cannot be disabled.

- Zooming doesn't work at 5 MP (probably not a bug, though)

- Auto-focus seems a bit off. Tried taking a picture of a tree 20 meters away, it didn't focus on anything it seems.

Hope this helps. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Elemag:
I will push another Camera app soon and have a look at the GPS thingies.

As for the wifi -- It goes off after 15 mins of inactivity.

Have you followed the instructions from "GoldCard Procedure" at section 2 of the link I gave you? Got adb installed and working? Once you have a goldcard made, you need to run the RUU file from your computer and install it to the phone. The instructions should work so long as you work from section 2 onwards.

Hello im looking for simple app if anyone cancreate this will be awesome.

There already have many free litle apps that Turn your Screen OFF but.. they only Turn the screen backlight off and your device is not really into sleep mode.

My sugesstion is if someone can create a simple light Sleep Model Togler we can install it and assing some of the softkeys to SLEEP and when you press it just the device go into sleep mode.

So this will be good because you dont need anymore to press all the time the power button if you want your device to sleep, and after long time of using this power button often get broken.. so when we can turn into sleep model by pressing the assigned softkey will be perfect and easy to use with One HAND no need to press the power button anymore.

Im talking about the Blackstone but this app will be usefull for all others too...

P.S Sorry i didn`t know that the app Is Already Avalible and Thanks to virgilp to pointing this out:)

[Desire General] psycho.ro:
The first time it happened I though it was something strange I did.

Second time it happened i had bluetooth headset on when i answered the call.

Third time I've answered the call normally.

The first two times I had to eventually shutdown the phone.

The third time I asked the called to call me back again, and after i answered the second time it stopped vibrating.

When the screen was on, it vibrated at normal intervals, just as i would when someone is calling.

When the screen was off, it vibrated continuously.

Anyone had this problem ?

Hi guys.

I have a wierd problem my xperia X1 touch screen keeps "failing" every 3-4days ok more explenation:

The touch function on the screen is not working this happens like every 3-4 days then i take out battery over night and the next morning its working 3-4 days again. Now the screen is not totally "failed" when its going into power save mode (the screen darkens) and i touch it it lights up again. Any idea what can be causing this? Oh and ive tried many different ROMS im now on the swedish stock R3AA....something rom and still the same problem, ANY help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I never turn it of (see below for explenation) can this be the problem maybe?

Oh and another problem i´ve had since the beginning is when i put in charger and the phone is turned off it emties the battery, seems like i have to charge it turned on, is this normal?

Hope somebody can help me

Sorry if my english is bad :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comeradealexi:
Sounds like a hardware problem.

I'd flash the stock ROM and SPL and send it back to sony for repair because if this is happening everytime you flash then its unlikely to be a problem with the roms your using.

Give sony a ring and they should be able to help.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] oluwaponmile:
I have been trying for the past few weeks without success to backup / restore the following two files

1. eT9Rudb.Rdb

2. eT9Asdb.Adb

The two files are located in \Windows\ET9IMEDB.

This is where my custom words are stored e.g. when you composing an sms/email, these words will be suggested. I need to be able to backup & restore these files in case I need to flash to a another rom.

I can successfully backup & restore the following three files in windows directory "eT9Rudb.Rdb", "eT9Cdb.Cdb" and "eT9Asdb.Adb" using a Mortscript but those are not the files I need.

Has anyone ever successfully backup & restore those aforementioned file that can share how they did it with me.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bigdyl69:
Sounds a good idea but I just wish someone could find a way to get WM to save custom T9 words after a soft reset or switch off-on. Have you tried backing the files up using Total Commander or Resco File Explorer and restoring them afterwards? Just wondering, what ROM are you using and does it save custom words?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] oluwaponmile:
Yes, it does save custom words even after a soft rest and I am using Xannytech rom, same on Energy etc.

No matter what rom I use, my custom words are always saved even after soft reset, I only need to use HD Tweak to enable T9 (option 20) and all custom words / phrases will be save and suggested later when I am typing similar words or phrase (see attached). The only problem is how to backup & restore these custom words / phrases.

anyone of you here is using any of the above headphones? i have tried the CX300ii but not the Vibe Duo. i would like to know how are these 2 performing compared to each other. the clarity of the sound and the bass response? any help is greatly appreciated! thanks!

i have the Vibe Duo in mind because of the design but the CX300ii's sound quality is really brilliant! :)
[HD2 Accessories] Jalaluddin:
i have the cx300 ,and they are just perfect , fits perfect in your (I wear them while jogging, and they dont fall out), further the sound quality is superb ,

Btw , For optimal use , use the Audio booster (For the bass effect)

thanks for your response.. i tried cx300 yesterday and i agree that it is brilliant. would love the response for vibe duo! :D:D
[HD2 Accessories] rwt4jc:
ear buds

I use the CX300 buds and for the price I'm satified and I'm pretty picky about sound performance. I'm sure you may be able to do better for around $100. CX300 was only about $45. I tried them on a recommendation from one of the tech magazines. Not disappointed. I'm getting really good sound out of my HD2 by using the free app SRS WOW HD.
[HD2 Accessories] BillTheCat:
I own the Vibe Duo (Nero) and love them, but fair warning - they're heavily weighted to the bass frequencies so I doubt you'll need the bass boost feature on the phone. Just hit their website and listen to the type of tracks they use and you'll get the gist. That said, they''re VERY well made, comfortable and I have no complaints. Another thing is that the cords are wrapped in fabric, which helps avoid tangles. Easily the nicest head 'buds' I've ever owned. You might also want to look into the Klipsch Image S4's, which were very well reviewed by Cnet. As usual, YMMV...
[HD2 Accessories] darkriderz:
I have used both... They are both good but i prefer the clarity and the bass of the cx300II... Even without audio booster they sound excellent on the HD2.... :cool:
[HD2 Accessories] chvvkumar:

[HD2 Accessories] TyRaNiDeX:
Hi !

I had the CX300 and now have the CX300 II and there are very good !

But I think CX300 is better for hard bass (I listen PsyTrance music like Infected Mushroom or Electro like Vitalic (<3 :p) ).

Maybe prefer CX300 ;)

-----------------------------------------------------

Salut !

J'ai eu le CX300 et maintenant j'ai le CX 300 II et ils sont vraiment très bon !

Mais je pense que le CX300 est meilleur pour les basses assez lourdes (J'écoute de la Psytrance comme Infected Mushroom ou de l'électro comme Vitalic (<3 :) ).

Prends le CX300 ;)

I'm actually using the CX300 right now only because I forgot to grab my NuForce NE-7M and in comparison the CX300 seem horrible when it comes to sound (but they do win in the around-the-neck cable design and I shaped jack (7M have the L-shaped jack and are not around the neck....but way better audio quality)).

Hi

Any ideas on how to adjust the a2dp bitpool settings. I am coming from windows mobile where this was easy to do in the registry. The stock bitpool seems to be 32 as per the logcat readout below. This is coming from an Evo 4G:

W/BTLD ( 1677): ### :: codec open ::

W/BTLD ( 1677): ### mtu 512, 660 bytes/frame, bitrate 229, nbr ch 0, freq 240

W/BTLD ( 1677): ### alloc : 3, blk len 240, chmode:15, bitpool 32:2, subbands 12

the sound is ok but could be better.

Another interesting part of the logcat is:

V/A2dpAudioInterface( 136): setParameters() bt_headset_name=DRC-BT15;bt_headset_nrec=on

E/AudioHardwareQSD( 136): setParameters() bt_headset_name=DRC-BT15;bt_headset_nrec=on

I/AudioHardwareQSD( 136): Using default acoustic parameters (DRC-BT15 not in acoustic database)

(I wonder what the acoustic database is.)

Any suggestions would be welcome. I did search around and found nothing easily implemented. Also nothing on the market.

Thanks

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jonboyuk:
I have been following this too. There must be a way to edit this somehow!! The a2dp quality of the evo/desire is awful! Must find a way!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Tutti-frutti:
I'm also disappointed in the audio quality on my Desire. I use my phone to listen to music in my car or mobile speaker via bt. But there are many tracks with high frequencies (or frequencies in some range), that causes some really disturbing clicking noise! Which I don't had on my Nokia N82 and SE K800i.

This really annoys me, and I consider to change to a different phone if there will not be a solution :( I'm currently using the original HTC firmware/radio, because I haven't rooted my phone yet. Is it possible that flashing a different radio will help?

I'm not sure if this is caused by the bitpool setting.

I will try to capture/upload some fragment with this clicking...

Edit: The microphone isn't good enough to record the clicking, but this fragment illustrates it very well (the clicking was actually in the track itself, but it sounds almost the same):

fragment (mp3)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mirko935:
Has there been any kind of an update on this one? A fix or a setting that could be changed?

I'm thinking of buying a Desire Z, but I will certainly stick to my ancient Touch Pro if the A2DP quality on Android is as bad as you all say. Bitpool of 32 is unlistenable, and I can't believe that neither Google nor HTC care about it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] naorion:
Now that Cyanogen has fixed this in their ROM, I don't understand why no one has released a method for people not running Cyanogen.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mirko935:

And will they make a ROM for Vision with that fix?

I'm having issues with an epic I just got (luckily in the 30 day return period). The a2dp audio sounds like garbage. The a2dp audio on my touch pro stock (before tweaked) was much better.

This could be a dealbreaker for me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jonboyuk:
This is good news, but surely Mr.Cyanogen can pass on his method to Cotulla or one of the other primary Android Devs.... Hmm!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tee2nu:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bex0rs:
I had a look at the bluez source code posted on HTC's developer site and I believe this is where the bitpool value is being set:

supersonic_bt.zip/external/bluetooth/bluez/liba2dp.c:

static uint8_t default_bitpool(uint8_t freq, uint8_t mode)

...

case BT_SBC_SAMPLING_FREQ_44100:
switch (mode) {
case BT_A2DP_CHANNEL_MODE_MONO:
case BT_A2DP_CHANNEL_MODE_DUAL_CHANNEL:
return 31;
case BT_A2DP_CHANNEL_MODE_STEREO:
case BT_A2DP_CHANNEL_MODE_JOINT_STEREO:
return 53;
default:
ERR("Invalid channel mode %u", mode);
return 53;
}

Changing the "return 31;" to "return 53;" and recompiling -or- hex editing the binary liba2dp.so on the phone ought to do the trick.

The same code block also appears in ipctest.c, pcm_bluetooth.c, sink.c, and source.c, so one or more of those files may also need to be modified.

I just got my Evo and I don't know enough about it yet to try this myself, but if someone else is able to then I think we'd all appreciate it if you could give it a shot. (Not all of us are interested in running a custom ROM just to fix this one problem.)

Edit: Another way may be to just force your desired min and max bitpool settings in the function bluetooth_a2dp_init():

cap->min_bitpool = min_bitpool;
cap->max_bitpool = max_bitpool;
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bex0rs:
Disregard that last post of mine. I had another look at liba2dp.c as well as some D/A2DP log output. All of the log output I could find posted online contains "channel_mode: JOINT STEREO", which according to default_bitpool() means the "default" bitpool should be 53. I originally thought the problem might be the bitpool setting of 31 referenced in that function, but I could not find any log output that contained "channel_mode: DUAL CHANNEL". (It shouldn't be too hard to verify this.)

So why is a lower bitpool value used? Look at this code snippet from bluetooth_a2dp_init():

min_bitpool = MAX(MIN_BITPOOL, cap->min_bitpool);
max_bitpool = MIN(default_bitpool(cap->frequency,
cap->channel_mode),
cap->max_bitpool);

cap->min_bitpool = min_bitpool;
cap->max_bitpool = max_bitpool;

The max_bitpool value is set to the lower of 1) the "default" bitpool and 2) the max bitpool reported by the audio sink (ie. your headset). If your headset reports a max bitpool of 32, then that is what will be used since it is less than 53. My understanding of the bluetooth spec is that audio sinks are supposed to accept bitpool values higher than 32 in order to support up to 512 Kb/s audio. Lower bitpool settings are more reliable, though, so perhaps that is why many headsets are configured to report artificially low values.

The actual bitpool value used is simply max_bitpool. See bluetooth_a2dp_setup():

data->sbc.bitpool = active_capabilities.max_bitpool;

The a2dp code isn't set up to take bitpool parameters from a configuration file, so liba2dp.c will need to be modified and recompiled. Possible quick fixes would be to change the "max_bitpool = MIN(" line to "max_bitpool = MAX(" or to manually set your desired bitpool value (ie. "data->sbc.bitpool = 53").
