[Vibrant General] xavice:
When putting a video onto my Galaxy S Vibrant the video works but I have no audio. The audio works on my PC but not on my phone. I followed the below instructions after:

[HOWTO] Convert videos for Samsung Galaxy S using Handbreak.

but the audios still doesn't work. Instead of pure silence however it sounds like the audio is distorted and extremely slow sounding to the point where you cant make anything out. The following is the Audio format:

Audio #2

Format : AAC

Format/Info : Advanced Audio Codec

Format version : Version 4

Format profile : LC

Format settings, SBR : No

Codec ID : 40

Duration : 1h 53mn

Bit rate mode : Variable

Bit rate : 318 Kbps

Maximum bit rate : 474 Kbps

Channel(s) : 6 channels

Channel positions : Front: L C R, Rear: L R, LFE

Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz

Resolution : 16 bits

Stream size : 258 MiB (15%)

I am able to put other videos on my phone without any issues. Any thoughts?

Hi all :)

I'm new, and i'm glad to be a member of this great forum! :D

I've lot of confusion about the sim unlocking on my HTC Tattoo branded Orange.fr to my Wind SIM (italian)

After a series of research on google, i've understand that i've two options:

- The first one is buy a sim unlocker in a shop like Dealextreme

- The second one is root the Tattoo and install a ROM that doesn't have sim locking

But... i've some questions:

1. Have I well understand what i've to do?

2. It's better to have some crapy chinese unlocking stuff or doing some tricky hacking software procedure? :)

3. Wich ROM do u suggest me? :)

3.1 Is true that if i flash other roms i lose the radio and the camera?

3.2 Is it better use a rom based on android 1.6 or android 2.x? Why?

Thanks in advance for your help

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] southernunlocker:
Hi there

The debranded firmware on the Tattoo doesn't solve the unlocking issue.

We have one in store that is still waiting for a solution. To root/debrand is the same as the Hero, but the sim unlock code still doesn't get accepted after flashing. That's as far as i've got with it!

Unless something has occurred recently that i've missed that's all i can help with for now!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravange:
Howdy! :)

I am currently pulling my hair out because I tried so many roms and I lost control over my HTC Desire. I am guessing I am currently on Android 2.1. I want to use a ROM that has no HTC Sense and is rooted. But all those roms are coming with so much annoying extra's I just don't want. And some of those roms tells me that some things are working and some not, that olso scares me.

When I click 'About my phone' I see the following information:

Firmware version: 2.1-update1

Smallband version: 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2

Kernel: 2.6.29-0cb9f166 (htc-kernel - and18-2 #1)

Build number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys

I hope somebody can point me in the direction I want because I am fairly new to the android phones,

Thanks!

Tossing this idea around if anyone has any input, it would be a huge help!

I would like to take a logitech usb gaming controller take the usb end and find a female usb input to micro, put that into my evo to run my emulaters on. I find it difficult with no keyboard to play the games, so I figured this would be a good option. Im sure I will need to get a linux based driver and upload to my sd for the controller. Is this possible, can this work and if not, is there any other alternitive??? Thanks for you help!!!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] falcon3754:
Hi,

I'm currently trying to remove my main google account from my HTC Desire. I changed my gmail adress and deleted the old Google account, now my Desire always asks me for the correct password for the old gmail account (which doesn't exist any more), thus I'd like to make the second Google account the primary one and delete the old (non-existant) account from my phone. I'm running a Froyo custom ROM (That means the Desire is rooted, shell instructions are also welcome). Removing all Google apps data in the Applications Menu didn't help. I don't want to do a factory reset as I've installed a few purchased apps I'd like to keep.

Thank you for your help!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] falcon3754:
Just FYI (and for search engine users): Just solved it. Instructions:

- Boot phone into recovery mode

- Mount /data partition

- Pull /data/system/accounts.db to local computer using adb pull

- Use sqlite3 to update the account name (UPDATE accounts SET name='asdf@googlemail.com' WHERE name='old@googlemail.com';)

- Push accounts.db back to phone

- Reboot

Works like a charm. No problems so far. :D

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] edgar270787:
I found another way, this is to remove all the accounts saved to the phone

First you need Root Explorer

-if you get any error with Superusers just close all the running services try to update SuperUser, turn phone off and back on, keep going to Root Explorer until it ask you to accept something related to SU (u might get frustrated but be patient you will see the permission)

-Once in Root Explorer Hit the hardware button and select SEARCH

-We are going to search for the word ACCOUNT

-Now the is going to search the whole phone for the word ACCOUNT make sure the sd card isnt inserted in the phone

-Once the search has been completed just delete all the files or text files in the search results. it probably say that the file is being used or is only for reed,again just make sure all the apps are closed as well of the proccesess then keep trying to delete until it gets deleted

-Just turn the phone Off and Back on and all the accounts should be Removed even the main one

Hey

Just downloaded Navigon 2.6.1, and wanted to test it out, but when i try to download maps i get an error, no matter what method i try.

PC can't find any navigon device when i connect phone to pc trough Navigon Fresh, and if I click WLAN it just says Connection failed try again later, and then closes..

When using WLAN I have wifi turned on, and even tried standing right next to the router for perfect signal, but still the same.

When using the pc method it says i need to mount sd card, but when i do navigon complains about that no sd card is inserted.

So no matter if i select charge only or mount card, navigon fresh on the pc can't find any device.

Anyone got a solution for my problem? (:
[Desire General] Chang:
I am aware that the BBC have removed the real player option they used to have for listening to local radio and replaced this with the iPlayer, as a Desire owner I find this pretty frustrating as we await Froyo to be delivered. I have a real gripe in this transition to iPlayer as I want to listen to my local BBC radio station while out of the transmission area and away from my PC. From my understanding you need a WiFi connection to use the iPlayer for the video stream, is this the same if you are just after the radio transmissions as they do not require the video.

If this is the case is does anyone out there know of an app that will allow live radio streams for BBC Local Radio via the tinternet using android.

Arriving Customer

- Customer name

- Time

- Kilometerstanding

I am working on an application, which communicate through a Bluetooth Socket.

It runs in the background, doing Device discoveries and connect to know devices.

The Bluetooth devices is programmed to not Bond to other devices and not to use "Man in the middle" security.

On HTC devices using "only" Bluetooth 2.0 i can programmaticaly connect to these devices and communicate, without interrupting the user.

(testet on HTC Artemis, TYTN2, Herald, Diamond, Pro, even an old Eten M700)

But on Bluetooth 2.1 the user have to accept the connecting all the time.

(tested on HTC Pro2 and Desire)

The app. is ported from J2ME where i am able to connect all the time without a popup.

(tested on Nokia 2730 (BT2.0), Sony Ericsson Elm (BT2.1) and Nokia 6700 Classic (BT2.1) all working)

I have found thread saying, it all about security in BT2.1, but then why does it work on new Nokias and SEs?!?!

Is there a way to connect without the confirmation popup (WM + Android) ?

------------ added --------

I should properly mention, that all the working HTC devices uses a Microsoft Bluetooh stack, and the Pro2 uses Widcomm Bluetooh stack.

Hi,

I looked through the stickies and could find an answer, I am getting a bit sick of the chinese symbols that pop up whenever I reboot my handset and also, I would liek to change to WWE rom as they seem to have better benchmarks.

So, I would like to change to WWE rom, but I dont want to root my device or invalidate my warranty. The device is unbranded.

Is this possible if so, can you please point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance.

Ps. Im new to Android, so sorry about N00b questions.
[Desire General] ahsan.mughal:
Yes, it is possible. I flashed the WWE Official ROM on my new HTC Desire last night (It had the Asian ROM on it by default). To do that, you need to have a Goldcard.

Follow this guide of making Goldcard: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696189

Once you have the Goldcard, download the official wwe ROM you would like to have, from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667

Put the Goldcard in the phone and run the downloaded official ROM RUU and DONE :D
[Desire General] wickedpenguin:
But my device isn't branded, I thougth gold cards were oly needed for branded phones?
[Desire General] ahsan.mughal:
Even mine isn't branded :p. If you try to flash an official ROM of another region you will get an "Customer ID" error. To avoid that you need Goldcard.

That's how I did it. I was trying to flash WWE on the Asian ROM and it was giving me customer ID error. Once I made the goldcard, the update worked fine :)
[Desire General] wickedpenguin:
SOunds like you were in the sam situation as me, I will have a look at making a gold card and flashing WWE rom.

Where did you get your WWE 2.1 rom from? All I can find is WWE 1.2 etc.. but no 2.1 Update 1

Also, is there a risk bricking the handset doing this? Also, do think this will void my warranty?

Thanks
[Desire General] ahsan.mughal:
I don't think there are chances of bricking the phone. Just follow the steps carefully and make sure you have the HTC Sync installed.

Get the latest ROM from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667

this one: RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe

1.21 is the software version, it is still the firmware 2.1 :)

As for the warranty, I don't think there would be any problem since you are not rooting the phone and you can always put the HK ROM back on it.
[Desire General] wickedpenguin:
