[Touch HD General] Hookani:
Hi All,

Is there a certain setting I'm missing for good video/audio quality? The video i get is pretty grainy and choppy and the audio is kind of garbled. I know it's not a video camera but you should be able to get something half way decent. Right now I'm using Mpeg setting but i don't see anywhere where you can choose audio recording setting.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] banderberg:
I modified my kernel to add additional clock speeds, and I can choose them in SetCPU after I flash the kernel, however SetCPU continues to report the clock speed of the Droid at 550 mhz.

I assume I am missing a kernel config setting but I cannot figure out what it is.

Anyone help?
[Touch GSM General] RRibeiro:
Hello all.

I have one ELF and since some days that my device is very unstable. It just hangs when I press the power button, and the only way is to reset or sometimes remove the battery.

I try´d flashing diferent ROMs but is the same.

I can't install one original ROM because I have a Portuguese ELF and I didn't found my ROM anywhere.

Thanks for all the help.
[Touch GSM General] ciuc007:
Mine has some issues when pressing the power button, it goes black as it supose to do but i can not revive it back.:confused: (only somethimes not always)
[Touch GSM General] RRibeiro:
I have that problem too, and ontill now I found no solution. :(

I try'd flashing diferent radios, but no go.

I know there are comments about froyo scattered through some threads but I couldn't find a dedicated impression thread. Would those who have the latest froyo please chime in with their overall impressions? Thanks!
[Nexus One General] pwoolston:
crap

[Nexus One General] BoostedSR20:
Yeah I wouldnt mind hearing from someone that came from say CM5 to the latest stock Froyo. Is it better? Is it worth flashing now seeing as how CM6 is about a week or so away?

I would try it now myself, but I can't give up the dumb little things. (such as trackball wake)
[Nexus One General] irishrally:
I've used every CM version and every leaked version of Froyo. I was surprised that the final Froyo release seemed faster and smoother than FRF83. The browser seems really fast now and app switching is great thanks to JIT. I like my FRF85B Froyo final setup right now more than I did CM5.0.8. I can't wait for CM6 though.
[Nexus One General] clickwir:
Super. Wonderful. Amazing. Thank you Google and anyone else on the OHA that contributed to this.

It's great. I love it. I love it even more when someone hands me a HTC Touch Pro2 with Windows Mobile on it... Microsoft shouldn't even be in the mobile business. They should leave it to the experts. It was sad.

If you ever get a chance to put your hands on Windows Mobile... do it. It will make you appreciate your Android phone more than when you bought it.
[Nexus One General] BoostedSR20:
Look at my sig pic, WM is all I ever used for years. I dabbled with android with emulators on my Fuze, then finally made the jump when the N1 was released. After using it for 1 day, I was emotional. :eek:

I really can't think of one single thing I miss with WM...
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
I don't think the JIT would have much impact on app switching. The highmem kernel OTOH makes a huge difference. My launcher was always relaunching when switching from big apps such as the browser or navigation. Since upgrading to froyo I haven't seen the launcher restart once.
[Nexus One General] irishrally:
Yeah you are probably right. I just thought I read somewhere that JIT had benefits for loading apps, it might have just been for 3rd party apps because JIT converts to native code before processing (something like that).
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
The JIT actually wouldn't have any impact on loading times. The standard interpreted code is always run initially. It's only once the app starts running that the JIT is able to locate frequently accessed blocks of code that would benefit from compiling to native code.
[Nexus One General] OrganizedFellow:
I too have used CyanogenMod since I had my G1. I DID play with, and greatly enjoy the Froyo ROM when it was released by PaulObrien.

But I did miss some of Cyanogens special additions, so I went back to it a few weeks ago.

Now with the latest Froyo out, I may change over - AGAIN!

hahaha, funny you mentioned that.

A co-worker of mine approached me, and said he bought this Android™ phone from a friend. He heard that I know about Android, rooting, apps, etc. so he had some questions for me. He hands me the phone, and I was thrilled to hold this LARGE HTC DEVICE in my hand. I haven't held an EVO, yet, so imagine my joy!!! My first time ya know ;) so I was honored.

It was branded T-MOBILE though ... hhmm, this can't be right!!! It should say Sprint!!! :eek:

After seeing the homescreen and tapping/flicking/swiping for all of 1.0 seconds, I handed it back to him and told him he has a Windows Mobile device - NOT ANDROID, and boy oh boy, was he pissed!!!! LMAO

Poor guy!

"If you ever get a chance to put your hands on Windows Mobile... do it. It will make you appreciate your Android phone more than when you bought it."

:)

I let him play with my Nexus for a few minutes. He offered to buy it from me for $450 .... nuh uh homeboy! This is my baby!
[HD2 General] chaoscentral:
I know this probably isn't the place for this, but I definitely need a place to vent where people can understand the frustration lol.

Yesterday I accidentally killed my HD2. The story goes as follows

I decided to clean my room and be productive for once, my phone was securely placed on my desk. I moved a glass of lemonade from the desk onto the floor so it would be out of the way so I could clean better.

So I started moving some things around on the desk, and next thing I know I see my HD2 falling like in slow motion. It landed in the glass of lemonade so I quickly fished it out. Both the water damage mark on the phone and battery were gone, so there goes my warranty call, and insurance was out of the question since T-Mobile's insurance only covers 2 insurance claims in a 12 month period regardless of which phone.

I had made a claim in June of 09 on a Sidekick LX I had damaged, and recently in May for losing my HD2. So they dropped me from the insurance making it impossible to make a claim.

So I left the phone out to dry and took the battery, sim, and sd card out it never turned off when it went into the lemonade, but the buttons became stuck on. More specifically the Volume up button became stuck on even if I pressed volume down.

So after letting it dry and blowing out every hole with compressed air it still wouldn't become unstuck, so I tried the one thing I knew would work. Electrical contact cleaner... Bad move on my part, that started to dissolve the plastic parts on the phone thus killing it completely.

Now I have no phone and can't justify spending another $400-$500 on a phone since I just bought that not 3 months ago for $450(I buy all my phones off contract)

I am very angry about what happened although I can only be angry at myself because of it... So anyone have any stories like this they'd like to share?

EDIT: Yay! 100th post!
[HD2 General] SecrtAgentMan:
Man that sucks, I watch over my HD2 like a hawk and have it with me all the time, either that or I will leave it in the middle of a table and far away from the sides.

Also what's this watermark thing you speak of?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Wow chaos, that sux big time, sorry to hear that! (yes, it was kinda painful just to read that!)

The only ray of sunshine I can offer is the fact that it's much easier now (following tmo's father day promo) to find new and near-new HD2's on the open market for less than they were before...in fact, there's at least one member here (atxdrift) who's selling his (only slightly used) one for $350. So, you might be able to find an acceptable one for a bit less than you expected. I know it's not the best answer, but there might be hope for you yet :o
[HD2 General] samsamuel:

[HD2 General] chaoscentral:
I wish I had renters insurance, what's most likely going to happen is I'm going to have to spend a month with a cheap pre-paid phone until I can get the money to buy a new phone.

I have a hard time trying to justify spending another $250-$300 on even a used HD2 since it is still the same phone, so chances are I might be leaving the HD2 community unless I find a really good deal.

I'm gonna hold out until the T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S comes out and give that a shot, so it's going to be a very long month lol. I've always had a smart phone, so it's gonna be weird going without one for a while.
[HD2 General] maxpower097:
1st try soaking it in clean fresh water then opening it up and drying it out. See if the suger is gewwing up the buttons. As long as no power is on or in the phone it shouldn't damage it. About a new HD2. Don't worry about it. I see them for same 2 weeks old on CL in mint condition for $225 - $250 almost everyday. I always go that route because even if the phone breaks I can still buy another for cheaper then buying it new with insurance. Since you already own the SD card you could proably sell yours for $30 or $40 and get the price under $200. Plus a digi/LCD combo is $150 so you can recover that too. So think about parting it out too. Once you part it all out, sell the sd card, and get a deal on CL your gonna probably make a couple dollars or pay like $50 for a new HD2.

I'm currently selling these two phones on ebay.

If you are interested in either let me know and I can probably give you a discount on the auction if you win it. I can't give it away but I don't mind just covering my costs.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
if you always buy your phones out of contract, why not just bite the bullet and renew???
[HD2 General] Showtime7:
I bought my HD2 this week on ebay for $330 flat, brand new condition and everything included but the SD card (had my own anyway)... I'm sure there are similar deals out there and probably better, a lot of people were disappointed with HD2's software (lol guess they didn't know what Windows Phone was all about) and want to get rid of it for an Android device, so keep an eye out for those deals. Some people really don't know what they've got. Sorry that happened to you, I was really bummed when I dropped my TP2 and the speakerphone jacked up. But I made the call anyway and they replaced it with a brand new one for free, so now I have a new HD2 and a new TouchPro2 as a backup. My suggestion is always try to keep a nice backup so that you're not completely devastated if the inevitable happens... But every time I drop mine or have to pay or make a call I learn a lesson, lol... Take it as a learning experience.
[HD2 General] Tm5078:
There going for 250 on craigslist :D
[HD2 General] maxpower097:
I got mine off CL with a total of 5 hours of use in mint condition. Guy was asking for $300 for phone alone at 2am. I texted him offering a trade and cash and he said cash only. So jokingly I said well if its in mint condition, you have the box, the SD card that still has the transformers on it, the charger, the case, and headphones, I'll give you $250. He texted back 5 minutes later saying "When can we meet?" Turns out the new Iphone was $300 with a new contract and he said he could come up with the extra $50. So I met him and got it and sure enough it was mint with not a spec on it. I bought it and turned out his girlfriend was there selling hers for the same price for another iphone. Unfortunately I didn't have another $250 on me and they sold it an hour later. The fact is the HD2 while being the nicest phone around is just too much phone for many people, they don't understand you have to install apps by cabs, they don't get the 10 years of upgrades and mods we have. So they just want to get some money back out of it and get an iphone or android. Most are listed from $285-$400. But most will take around $250 cash. All the ones you see for $300 keep getting posted over and over, just offer them some cash and they will bite. I would avoid posting offering $250 for one because you will probably have someone with a stolen one or messed up one try to sell you one. Just email each seller with an offer.
[HD2 General] KharmaKills:
I know that I shouldn't laugh, but this reminds me of the time that my buddy used Goof Off to clean a stain on his sink not realizing that it was made of a plasticky material! He cursed himself for mucking up the plastic and then read the warning on the can that we are ALL too familiar with... "Please test product in a discreet location first to make sure that product does not damage XYZ" (<- Obviously paraphrasing)
[HD2 General] a_ok2me:
My friend spilled soda on his crt monitor and it still worked. I can't see why it won't work after you clean it out and dry it. Then again I can't see why the lemonade glass didn't get knocked over.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Jykinturah:
When I try to find the Froyo boot animation they are either:

1) The Nexus One boot animation.

2) The Froyo boot animation which is natively 256 X 256 expanded to 480 X 480.

As I am in a way afflicted by an obsessive desire to see things only in their native resolutions, I modified the animation to work correctly at its native resolution.

So, here you go.

This is not a flashable zip. If you want to use this bootanimation, search for the instructions. They are pretty much all over the place.

EDIT: Wasn't looping. Pulled till I fix that.

EDIT 2: It should work now. If it doesn't, God hates me. Just let me know.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JCrooz:
Alright, so I'm gonna start off by saying this could be something really obvious, maybe too obvious to turn up any results in a search because I've looked, but here's my problemo:

Got a G1 (obviously), running CM5.0.8t4. I've got Apps2SD enabled, 1gb out of a 4gb micro sd card, haven't used up even half of that. But today I suddenly got a "low internal memory" warning and I was thinking huh?? I had only 8mb free out of 88 mb (or around there) So I looked around and someone who posted a similar problem was told to clear the system cache, so I figured "Oh, that makes sense". I downloaded CacheCleaner from the Market ('cuz I'm lazy) and I figured it would free up some crazy massive amount...but no, it cleared up 1 teeny mb...

It's not my apps, and it's not the cache: so my question is...where the HELL did all my internal memory go?? :confused:

Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lieu10ant:
it is the apps "data" being saved on your phone, and not on the sd card. "data" such as, your high scores in games, or settings of an app, log-in info for an app... etc... u have to go into each app that you have installed on your phone (by clicking on them from the applications setting menu) and then hit "clear data" or some **** like that for each app.... that should clear some space up. and make SURE the apps are being installed on the SD card, and NOT on the phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SolemnWishing:
It is true hitting clear data will clear up SOME memory, however I don't believe that is the typical way people gain memory back. If you choose to do this REMEMBER THIS. If you clear data for the Messaging App, you will lose your texts. Same with the Contacts app, you will lose your contacts and call log. For the Launcher, you will lose everything on your home screen.

And as for the guys that replied, thank you very much, I haven't gotten around to trying the method of deleting that app data yet (got another issue, atm), but I'm POSITIVE that that's the memory-hogging culprit
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theartar:
I will second what Lieu10ant said.....clear data/cache of apps (I usually sort by size - browser and market are huge culprits) and also double-check the apps are saved to SD and not to the phone.

Also clearing cache will not delete bookmarks, log-in, SMS, etc, only clearing data will.

Does anyone out there know of a way to remap or assign a key OTHER THAN the power button to wake the screen?

The reason I ask is I am an avid fisherman and I use the evo / navionics app for water nav. I recently purchased a waterproof/resistant otterbox for my EVO and realized you can't wake the screen with any button other than the power button. The only buttons available for me to push without putting the phone at risk are the home, menu, back, and search buttons at the bottom. Otherwise I have to open the box to wake the phone. This defeats the purpose of keeping my salty / rainy hands off the evo (Florida weather and fishing).

Any help would be greatly appreciated !!!!

Thanks for the speedy reply. I think I figured out how to wake the phone. Ill just use my bluetooth to wake it by doing a redial with the headset. This wakes the phone and I can use it through the case. Thanks again.

I didn't see this posted but, this was a huge deal for me. IMDB finally released their fantastic app to the market (for free). I used the app all the time on my 3GS and truly did miss it on my Evo. It is pretty similar to the iPhone version with a slightly redesigned UI for Android. Top notch stuff.

For those that don't know (I'm sure there are about 7 of you) IMDB is the ultimate reference tool for movies and TV shows. Ratings, cast, episodes, pretty much anything you can think of that is related to the genre is available. Arguing with a friend over the name of the Spanish maid from Family Guy? IMDB will have it and whole lit more. Plus, it has a showtime feature that gets you move times around you.
