First, sorry mods if this is in the wrong section, I'm still new round these parts

Anyway, In preparation for a radio update and cooked ROM flashing I tried to install HSPL 1.42 using DFT HSPL2 for Leo. All seems to be fine as the phone enters the bootloader and I choose my HSPL type, problem is that the install never seems to happen: the install status bar just goes back and forth indefinitely. Soft reseting the phone returns it to normal.

Details:

Model: HD2 T8585 (900mhz/2100mhz)

SPL: 1.42.0000

ROM: 1.66.405.2 WWE

Radio: 2.06.51.07

What's gone wrong? I've installed as admin, tried rebooting, installing 1.62/2.08 all to no avail. Sorry if it's a simple solution to a common problem, but I couldn't find any previous relevant help.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
enter bootloader manually, wait for serial to become usb then run hspl.

try all different usb ports, especially stay away from ports in the front of your pc. use one around back.

(and just cos you can flash from a particular port doesn't mean hspl will work on that port.)
[HD2 General] groggit:
Thanks for the reply but unfortunately your solution didn't work.

All of this trouble early on is making me think I'm going to brick my baby, especially when you see all those Youtube comments with bricked phones by the barrel full.

To be fair, Youtube commenters often have the reading ability of toddlers...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] marcelotorres:
I was reading and searching, when i saw this:

Some Windows Mobile smartphones have a safety lock that prevents the installation of "non-certified" (eg MIGSoft SmartTweaks) or editing the content of the record. But beware: this block has nothing to do with those that prevent the use of a device outside of a particular operator.

To perform the unlock, just change two registry keys using a registry editor (but read the specific topic on hacks and the care you must have):

1. Go to: hkey_local_machine \ security \ policies \ policies

2. Change the value of key "00001005" to "40" (without quotes);

3. Change the value of key "00001001" to "1" (without quotes);

In my first Motorola MotoQ CDMA Windows Mobile 5.0 could make this change without any major problems. However, after returning from service, which has changed the board and the ROM version of the device, this key Windows Mobile could not be changed. After some research, I found the procedure that allows the release of ROMs where the editing of this registry key can not be changed - by remembering that this is a hack I'm not responsible for any damage that might do to the system. Test at your own risk:

1. Download and install Device Security Manager Powertoy for Windows Mobile 5.0 from Microsoft. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...8c-d587-47e0-908b-09fee6ea517a&displaylang=en

This application shows the type of security policy in the existing Windows Mobile device connected to the PC. Warning:

this software crashes on Vista, but you can use it according to the desired result;

2. Connect the Q to the PC, wait for sync and run the program. You will see "two tier" in the "security policy" if the device has the protection of editing the registry;

3. Download the file secpolicies.cab http://sems.org/content/download/secpolicies.cab amending the security policy. This file is from Telus States

United States;

4. Install the file, moving it into the device and using the file manager of Windows Mobile, click it (run it);

5. Run the application again Device Security Manager Powertoy for Windows Mobile that should now show the value "tier one".

It is done.

Hi everyone i just got Coreplayer version v1.3.2

I was trying to play a avi file getting error message

player\storage card\********.avi unknown file format!

is there something im doing wrong
[HD2 General] argentocruz:
Some video files are mistakingly named .avi but are not... But your computer can still play them cause your computer player will work that out...

Maybe core player won't play that kind of file... Try several .avi files...
[HD2 General] djbinh:
do i just drag and drop
[HD2 General] grvllg:
where i can download core player for free...pls send me link
[HD2 General] ribcage:
You can't, CorePlayer is a commercial program. Do a search for TCPMP and you'll find the freeware version in the forums.
[HD2 General] djbinh:
Hi guys

Avi file does work

but the avi file has to be located in my phone memory to make it work

it wont work if i place it in my stoage card " sd card "
[HD2 General] argentocruz:
lol... none of my video files are on my phone memory...

Where they are located shouldn't matter at all... unless your memory card is so slow it can't stream quick enough...

Hi i dont know if im posting this in the right place but i like the keyboard from froyo 2.2 the black keyboard can any one port this for the evo im not trying to install froyo on the evo thanks !
[HD2 General] yrg:
My HD2 somehow today downloaded all my messages from my Yahoo account, all 7000+ messages from several years! Does anyone know:

(1) How to delete all these messages from HD2? One by one takes too long!

(2) How to prevent HD2 from downloading all the messages again? I checked my email setting. It sets to only download the past 3 days message. I have no idea how it can even download several years messages. I thought my HD2 experienced the sleep of death.

Thank you!
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
go into your inbox by going to your mail tab and click all messages. once there click menu and go to tools and there should be something that says clear "your account name" mine happens to be gmail. It will delete all your messages off your phone but not from the server( Yahoo) now for the second part I have not figured a way, sounds like you need to startt deleting some junk mail or make a new account :)
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
You might want to try moving all your older messages online to a separate folder..."archived" or something similar...which should keep them from being DL'd to your phone again.
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
I've found a nice new use for my N1 and car dock. The camera on the N1 is left exposed while in the car dock, making the N1 a great in-car video recorder.

Here is my first try: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0GB8HObJaM

These roads were really bumpy and make the picture seem lower quality. I have another recording on nice smooth roads and the quality is very good. I'll try to post later.

The video quality is also a lot better on the original file than the converted file on youtube.

EDIT: Another short clip where my dock falls off because I didn't secure it properly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Xe2DVJKExA

you need to get your windshield cleaned. someone put "evalaution copy" on it :P
[Nexus One Accessories] knightnz:
Apart from the terrible audio quality, that works really well. You should run it through a video editor and replace the audio with the intro from Dukes of Hazzard or something :)
[Nexus One Accessories] MSigler:

You could also use time-lapse ( http://www.sheado.net/timelapse/index.html ) , here is my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mX4X8gznYp4 made with my Nexus One.
[Nexus One Accessories] dsixda:
Moved to Accessories thread...
[Nexus One Accessories] BigDamHero:
Does anyone have the APK for Time-Lapse? I really want to try this but it is not appearing in the market for me (assume its because I am running 2.2 and its forward locked).

Thanks
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
Yeah, does anyone know of a good free converter for going from 3gp files to something imovie can use on a mac?

One limitation I noticed is that I can't seem to record continuously for more than 30 minutes.
[Nexus One Accessories] momentarylapseofreason:
Didn't realize just how crawling the M3 is till now.
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
As in slow? This was just a leisurely drive on a Sunday afternoon, and I've never driven these roads before.
[Nexus One Accessories] guags99:
Great use of the Car Dock...Now you just have to post a Youtube video of you pulling someone over and beating the crap out of them for "resisting arrest". :D
[Nexus One Accessories] momentarylapseofreason:
I was just messing with you but yes, the M3s are "slow" for the price tag. Cool looking roads though.
[Nexus One Accessories] MintyFloss:
so to clarify, this is the official N1 dock from google?
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
Yes, Google car dock, and you don't need to do anything crazy to set it up, its essentially mounted the way have it for standard gps usage. In my videos you can kind of see the base of the dock in the top right corner of the video but I tweaked it slighty afterwards and you can get an unobstructed image.

I was most impressed with the stability of the image. These roads were quite bumpy and windy but the image is reasonably steady.
[Nexus One Accessories] coldchillen:
ive used this program to convert the 3gp files to mp4. for freeware, it does a decent job.
[Nexus One Accessories] Tortri:
Been doing this for a while. Use the camera app and set it to 30 minute recording, but if a phone call comes in it'll stop it instantly. Also use MyTracks to record my speed etc. etc. and save the file at the end, as a what if. Also you can import that file into good earth to see your track. Also like to use LISTEN to listen to my podcasts. ;-D

Ended up getting a 16gb card because my other card wasn't enough.. i do have to clean it up after a while.. oh btw, use qik if you don't want that 30 min limit but then you have to remember to disable public broadcast, unless you don't mind people watching you drive ;-D Thank god for tmobiles unlimited internets.
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
Nice, thanks. I am hoping to find an OSX app program but I can use try this on a virtual machine.

Sweet. I've been looking around for an app to record speed, g force and gps tracking. I'll have to try out MyTracks.
[Nexus One Accessories] CentralMoNexusOne:
Have you ever tried handbrake? I think there is a mac version of that.
[Nexus One Accessories] DailyRoads:
The new version of our app - DailyRoads Voyager - now has the option to save mp4 video files. And you can basically record videos continuously, since the app deletes old files to make room for new ones.
[Nexus One Accessories] irishrally:
Thanks, I'll check it out.

EDIT: Downloading now, but sounds awesome. I actually tried mounting my gps on below my N1 in the car dock to record the road and the speed etc. on the gps. I will test tomorrow but wondering if the recorded video will include the speed in the top left corner as shown when using the app.
[Nexus One Accessories] DailyRoads:
Unfortunately, Android does not allow anything to be overlaid on the video sequence itself. That's why you can't see the speed on videos viewed outside the app. I am saving the additional data in the app's database, and pseudo-overlay it, when playing back the video.
[Nexus One Accessories] jimbobalu:
Dailyroads,

Would it be possible to enable 180 rotation of the viewer? The way my N1 is mounted the overlay is upside down.
[Nexus One Accessories] DailyRoads:
Even if I could flip the screen, I am not sure the camera would be able to correctly record videos. From my tests, it records upside down, presumably because it is hard-wired to record only in one landscape position.

Have you tested recording videos with the native camera app when the phone is rotated 180 degrees? The preview looks OK, but the actual video sequence is upside down (at least on the Droid and G1).

[Android Software Development] prateeksach:
I'm starting to develop new apps and I needed to learn to do a specific thing - and there are apps for the stuff I want..

is it possible to look at the code of an apk file and then write own by using the apk as a guideline? kind of like reverse engineering an application???

thanks in advance.
[Android Software Development] Ridelub:
I don't think u can directly reach to the original java code through the apk.

I've read about "disassembling" though.

Try googling "baksmali" for more info on a pretty disassembler project.

Ofc it would be better if you tried to ask the original creator for some help. Easier for you and better for the "development idea" :p
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
Hello..

i've noticed that after applying this one:

i lost Sense UI. i got my Desire from VIP

any idea?

BUT i noticed that phone runs faster than before
[Desire General] xtcislove:
What do you mean? U lost the launcher from SenseUi or the whole look? White or black notification bar?

anyone with same problem?
[Desire General] stingerpl:
You had the menu before or after flashing ruu?
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
I had menu before flashing RUU :(
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
Also is there any chance to put back my previous RUU?
[Desire General] madd0g:
So you have a stock 2.1 white notification bar ?
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
I dont't know where to see that?
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
Aha, i get it.. its not white :)
[Desire General] benko286:
Have you tried restarting Desire?
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
Several times but same thing...

Beside that everything goes smooth. I mean, it runs very very fast.

I have more than 250mb free ram
[Desire General] typhex:
If it runs fast, dont touch it :)
[Desire General] xtcislove:
Look for Rosie.apk in /system/app/ with any file manager.
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
Someone told me that too :)

But if i updated with that RUU ,will i receive 2.2 update?
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
Yes i have that file and its installed
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
I think this Firmware is without HTC Sense
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
But if i updated with that RUU ,will i receive 2.2 update?
[Desire General] xtcislove:
Yes and if Rosie.apk is there Sense MUST be installed!

Very confused about this.... can u post logcat? And can u upload a copy of Launcher2.apk and Launcher2.odex in /system/app/?
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
i dont have Launcher2.apk and Launcher2.odex

can't find in /system/app/

btw: where to find logcat ?
[Desire General] hargibi:
go to settings, applications, application manager. Then look for sense there, open it and press remove default!

Should work. else look if there is any other "launcher" app there and go into that one and remove default!
[Desire General] sashajovicic:
nothing happens. still the same... i think i chase a ghost :S

will try to root it... maybe that solve all problems..
[Desire General] himdeadman:
i installed launcher pro on my desire and i think its better then htc sense plus i was getting bored of sense! :D
[Touch HD General] kubeb:
Hi,

Yesterday I've deleted by mistake a file in the storage card called album.(something)

After doing Hard Reset usually the phone searches for pictures and everything that is in the DCIM folder is presented in the pictures tab.

Now it shows me all JPG,GIF or BMP that's on the card including icon pictures and unused system pictures.

How can I restore the file to focus in the DCIM?

In addition is there a good freeware to restore files from memory card? (there's no recycle bin in WM)

Thanks,

Kubeb

[Legend Themes and Apps] gyedema:
I came from Winmo 6.5 and missed my dearly Coreplayer.

So found and installed Rock Player (which is called Demo Player after install?) but no matter what I do: no video whatsoever is played. I have .wmv files, .avi, .mp4: I tap the filename and rock player goes back to the dir view.

Anyone else know about this issue? Or did I miss something?
[Legend Themes and Apps] Liquid211:
You should use Meridian. It's very nice but only plays mp4.

Xvid and wmv is not hardware supported but you can use xyflash to play them. It just lags. You will have to wait for coreplayer 2.0 for android.
[Legend Themes and Apps] eitreach:
No, he doesn't. Rockplayer Beta works wonderfully with divx, xvid, mkv and the likes.
[Legend Themes and Apps] BicolXpress:
same here i cant get rockplayer to work on my legend. :(
[Legend Themes and Apps] Liquid211:
As far as I know Rock Player is an old project of getting vlc to work on android. Only problem is that is isn't designed to be running on the mobile platform. It works for some but I tried every apk I could find but never got it running on my Legend.

I myself am looking forward to CorePlayer. It is going to do all that is missing in videoplayback on android.

Thats just my 2 cents.

[Legend Themes and Apps] pinxue:
If it shows "Demo Player", then you are installing the logo hacked version of first close beta of RockPlayer. The later URL posted is the official public beta which is much more stable.

I strongly suggest you to have a look at the release announce at www . diffthink.com /forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4 , it helps to understand why some phone cannot run it.

[Legend Themes and Apps] grandioso:
Can anyone please reupload or send me a link to a working version of Rockplayer ? The link here is dead.

I have the Demoplayer version and it keeps crashing everytime I try to play a file (tried avi video, and mp3 music).

edit : I downloaded a version from the market, but it doesn't play my avi files (tried a random episode of BBT, 175MB) - it says it can't play in system mode and freezes in normal mode. This version can at least play audio, which couldn't be more useless to me.
[Legend Themes and Apps] qzem:
@grandioso

Which Rom do you use? I think that if you use Azure rom, the rock player won't work. It has something to do with camera library, if they change it so that the player would work, then the camera doesn't work. So the devs decieded that most users prefers working camera:). I must say it's a right decision, but maybe some one will find a solution to this problem.
