That may be the primary problem. That is, I haven't yet found a way manually set these parameters, and as a "unsupported device", the Telus person may not be Xperia-savvy any more than I.

However, if I read you reply correctly, I should be able to choose to manually configure the phone for Telus HSPA, voice & data(?) All that I've been able to find is an options list that shows all the Canadian carriers, and I'm supposed to choose one (which presumably automatically configures the phone for that carrier). I was hoping to see "other", the selection of which would take you to a dialog that would allow manual configuration(??)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
you can manually do the connect setting by going to settings - connections - connections and then enter information desired.

Do not use the connection set up because that wull give a list of recognized providers from the xml files.

Hi all.

I have, in this moment, an ACER S200 (WM) with some hacked rom. The phone is honest, good autonomy, honest signal, fast, stable as it can be stable a wm phone. But it is far to be perfect.. radio signal can be better, stability need to be neat to absolute, autonomy can be better, and i need real multitasking, because lot of my work is use the phone with TomTom active, when i'm phoning and occationally i'm giving a look at notes and contacts.

And the Acer have good power (Snapdragon 1Ghz...) but it is not enough fot to manage this work without problems.

So i'm evaluating a new phone. But, is there a better phone than S200 with a reasonable price? my priority is radio signal, multitasking, price.

Thanks in advance for the help
[General Questions and Answers] orb3000:
HTC!

Personally I do not consider S200 as a business phone, for that Leo is far better. This line I see it more as multimedia phones.

I have a Rhodium and despite it´s small processor that is a really a business phone with a real keyboard and another capabilities.

I am waiting to see what HTC comes up as successor of Rhodium...

Check my last signature link to see another business option.

Hi,

I've been searching the net for any information about MKV playback on Android and found this one:

mobilegadgets-review.blogspot.com/2010/04/htc-desire-plays-mkv-divx-videos.html

Can I trust this source? Anyone tried this one?
[Desire Themes and Apps] simpty:
You can also get the yxplayer from Android Market and I would recommend this.

But I don't know whether it has mkv playback. The only tool I know is called "RockPlayerBase" which is able to play mkv but not very smooth (averaged 16 fps on my Desire). I assume, you can get this tool from here... anywhere^^ just search.

I hope, I could help you. Correct me, if I'm wrong ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] ledaz:
16 fps doesn't sound too promising.. Thanks for advice though:)
[Desire Themes and Apps] rovex:
16fps if you are lucky! more like 5 most of the time. I think the rockplayer is a software player so its using just the brute force of the CPU. Thats not bad considering most Atom based netbooks cant play MKVs smoothly without an HD decoder card...

Maybe one day we will get some hardware assistance..
[Desire Themes and Apps] Archer:
Not sure if this will help at all, but mkv2vob converts mkv files to either vob or mpeg, and does it very quickly. (I don't normally recommend conversion apps as they're usually really slow.)

If either vob or mpeg will play better then I really would recommend giving it a try.

http://www.mkv2vob.com/showthread.php?tid=1

Also highly recommended for PS3 users who want to watch mkv files ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] JohnSteveDoe:
Try RockPlayer. It's awesome.
[Desire Themes and Apps] adventure1001:
That is yxflash and an old version at that a newer one is available in market works a treat for all i throw at it:)

Also using RockPlayer aka: DemoPlayer:)
[Desire Themes and Apps] ledaz:
Considering time wasted converting files and saving space, when viewing movies, better idea is to stick with divx/xvid/h.264?
[Desire Themes and Apps] th3:
There's nothing that currently plays MKVs properly in all I've tried incl. the aforementioned apps. The RockPlayerBase cannot play H.264 vids. It will however play XviD/DivX totally fine upto VGA resolution (plays upto 1.2Mbps VGA vids fine that I've tested).

Act 1 player, Meridian, the stock player - all play H.264 vids perfectly. HD 720p vids at that, and in some vids, upto 10Mbps plays well. But they don't play AVIs or MKVs.

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

- Sent via my HTC Desire -
[Desire Themes and Apps] JohnSteveDoe:
Plays 1.5 MBPS full WVGA videos just fine, too. And you can just use Rock for XviD/DivX/MKV/AVIs and Stock for H.264. Don't be a lazy bum :P

Afaik, you can't set different default programs for different video file extensions. All types of videos are Videos.
[Desire Themes and Apps] juami:
Try diceplayer

Try diceplayer.

My nexus-1 ( patched libOmxVdec.so )

can play 720p High 3.1 MKV+DTS file flawlessly.

Desire use same AP, i think that desire can play 720p MKV.
[Desire Themes and Apps] aca85:
I've tried this too,on numerous occasions but with no success :/

I also use RockPlayer :) But what i do i convert all my Movies (that i watch on my Desire) with Badaboom (Nvidia's official vid converter) to a h264 file in mp4 format,and it plays perfectly :) [so if u have a nvidia gfx card...i strongly recommend this method,since it's ultra fast :),if u have an Ati,try xvid4psp 5.0+ converter]
[Desire Themes and Apps] birdfoot:
I, too, recommend MoboPlayer. It's simple to use and supports embedded subtitles in .mkv files.
[Desire Themes and Apps] festa20:
Id try arcmedia on the market it always works for me mate and its free
[Desire Themes and Apps] acidxtreme:
I also use Moboplayer.
[Desire Themes and Apps] jimmkind:
I can confirm this. All solutions above, (rockplayer, mobo etc.) are crap in comparision to diceplayer, (that if you patch your existing lib as suggested).

I previously postet a thread on this in the general section. It really makes the phone to a "almost" perfect hd media player.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] karq:
Hey everyone,

lets keep it simple.

3. Place everything you extracted into the root of your sd card for Raphael and Everything in your internal memory for Diamond.

It should look like this

--root--

\conf

\media

-haret.exe

-initrd.gz

-rootfs.img

-system.sqsh

-zImage

-modulesXXXXXXXXXXX

-startup.txt

Did that and started haret.exe, after I calibrated my touchscreen the android boot screen appeared and thats all, nothing else happened. I tried to restart the booting proccess, but it still only runs the boot screen.

Where's the problem?

I used the latest andorid build for my touch diamond(diam100) from the connect-utb site.

[Android Apps and Games] fiskadoro:
Wondering if any developer folks have noticed a problem with the Google News & Weather widget yesterday and today? I installed this on my EVO (GenieWidget.apk) because I love its simplicity and elegance, but it has been telling me "Sorry, unable to connect. Please try later" with a "Retry now" button.

I've discovered it's not just me, but other Android phone users too, so it could be an issue with the Google servers, but the thing that I'm trying to work out is who to contact about the problem. Is this a Google-developed widget or is there someone else who can be asked? Has this happened before and is there a fix?

I'm guessing there isn't much that can be done, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] petrochemicals:
I have the same problem. Can't find any info on who to go to on this.
[Android Apps and Games] callummr:
Same problem here, it's got to be at Google's end (it's part of 2.x). I expect they're aware of it by now though.

Interesting. On another forum, I saw mention of a company called PalmarySoft who are apparently the provider of the backend of the widget (though I can't confirm that). They have had some kind of DDoS attack. Not sure if that'd be enough to kill the widget entirely, but who knows. Miss it already, one of my favorites, let's hope it gets fixed soon.

Hey all.

im sitting and trying to flash the Energy ROM on my Touch Diamond.

Tried HTCFlasher but it cant find my device, says device not found.

Tried putting the DIAMIMG.NBH on the card no difference, the phone wont install it.

the

Put Diamond to "USB Trigger Mode" through holding VolDown+Back while pressing reset

- After a few seconds Diamond will ask you to flash DIAMIMG.NBH

wont work for me, nothing happens either with the phone turned on or off.

if i do power button + back+volume down i get the phone to start some mode and it searches the internal storage(the 4gb) but it gets stuck at loading :S

Suggestions?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0tt3R:
I have searched everywhere and can't seem to find a answer to this...

I use a phone cradle in the car, using my topaz as my music player, connecting my phone to my car stereo with a male-male 3.5mm audio jack.

I want to be able to steam music via bluetooth from any other compatible phone / device to my phone, meaning I don't have to trail cables everywhere when a passenger wants to play something.

I would have thought this to be a simple-ish thing to setup but cannot find any information on how to do it. Is it even possible, and where would I start if it is?

I also want to use my on-board mic when the headset is plugged so I can have call audio over car speakers, although iv been led to believe this isn't possible because of hardware reasons, can anybody clarify that?

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, not really sure where it should have gone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
If I understand you correctly, you want to stream music TO your phone over BT from another device? Not possible.

For hearing call over speakers and using mic, you need to get the M-F w/built in mic.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitsi:
I too don't think it will be possible to stream music from another device to your phone except if you transfer the entire music mp3 file via bluetooth to your device and then play it from there.

Regarding the possibility of using the device's microphone whilst using the car speakers for sound, again I'm afraid I don't think this is possible. I have a similar set-up to you in that my TD2 is connected to an FM transmitter which also charges my TD2 at the same time in a nice cradle. The TD2 thinks it is connected to a headset when cradled. The microphone is inactive in this state which is a shame as it would have made a good hands free system if it were to be active....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
I use this set up as well. You just need the cable with the built in mic.

My RF Transmitter has a male plug, So I found the HTC cable that has the HTC USB to Female with built in mic. This is my basic set up.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitsi:
That set up looks great Bruce, but I don't want to be fiddling about plugging in so many cables with so many wires visible. Brodit does something similar too, all in a cradle with an extended wire so you would be able to hide all the cables....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthro:
Great phones like Evo 4G have been released and we're looking forward to devices like Samsung Galaxy S, Droid X.

Here's a list of reasons why I'm considering replacing my Nexus One:

Better screen because this could be the single most important part of the phone, like what Jobs said (larger screen, no multi-touch issue, Super AMOLED)

Front-facing camera for video calling

Nexus One can be sold at a good price today, especially in some areas in the world

Physical Keyboard (if there is an option with this all)

Why Samsung Galaxy S?

4.0" seems to be the most optimal size

Super AMOLED

Price

Front-facing camera

I'm most compelled to get the Samsung Galaxy S, because of the price, screen, and availability in my area. EVO 4G is great, but it's CDMA and we don't have 4G here. Droid X is also great, but I don't have details about it's availability.

However, I'm not 100% sure about upgrading now because other phones, especially Samsungs, may not have big Android communities. Imagine the lack of CyanogenMod. Also, custom versions of Android like TouchWiz UI and MotoBlur usually suck. Some versions of Sense UI may be better than stock, but a guy like me is a sucker for stock Android.

What can you suggest?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quelltextfabrik:
I'd stick with the Nexus One until Googles next baby comes out.

This is the #1 hardware platform and will have the best community support for quite a while.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namuna:
And don't forget, the GalaxyS is DivxHD Certified!!!

I'm really liking the DroidX too, the Dell Streak looks just a smidge too big (I've got big hands and really like the idea of a big screen, but not TOO big), and this X at ~4.4" might be in just the right spot!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thechump:
The Galaxy S sounds cool from a spec perspective but I'm worried about the lack of support from Samsung. They've essentially shunned their phone user base in the past and I'd rather not go through that, especially since Gingerbread is going to be quite a big leap forward for Android.

Also, check out Engadget's preview of the Galaxy S. They have some concerns about the build quality. While the specs are great, and the UI is actually pretty nice; the questionable build quality and dubious manufacturer support history have left me in "wait and see" mode.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
Next months DroidX (motorola) looks promising too.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OutlawPro:
I will give you this single warning. Do NOT get a Samsung phone. The phone is garbage, the support is worse than garbage. For example, the last Samsung phone that I had *never* got an update. It has a bug that it won't give an audible alert that the battery is low. Called TMo, they said it was Samsung's problem, Samsung says it's TMo's problem. Bottom line, I could get a refurb phone that they said would have the same issue since there was no firmware update.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoa23:
I agree with everyone else. The N1 will continue to have the greatest developer support and google support. I personally love my N1, I can customize pretty much anything. Even the keyboard can be changed to something more friendly. The screen is beautiful, it doesnt need to be a monitor. The contrast ratio the N1 screen cannot be compared to any screen. The EVO has a big screen but it cant compete with the colors that the N1 puts out.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
At least it's smaller than the Evo or Droid X.

[XPERIA X10 General] lqbweb:

[XPERIA X10 General] ddewbofh:
The most amusing bit really is that accelerometers do the same thing as a gyroscope. Unless you happen to be in space or pull heavy G's as part of your daily life. For the purposes of figuring out a device's orientation accelerometers do the job just fine.

Apple have a nasty habit of adding old features and hailing them as revolution just because they make them sexy. "Look here, you can do videochat...it's a revolution!" Problem is that it's not over the phone like people have been doing for years but only over Wifi, and you can forget chatting to people with devices other than the iPhone. So they've taken a feature people have been using for years, cripple it and then sell it as the second coming. Brilliant marketing.
