High Speed Micro HDMI to HDMI adapter for HTC EVO 4G - eBay (item 130412880785 end time Aug-21-10 04:28:52 PDT)

anybody buy one of these? thoughts? if not where did you buy from for a similar price?
[Droid X Accessories] wizang:
I haven't tried any micro hdmi adaptors but a trusted source for cheap but quality cables is monoprice. It won't let me link directly but they have one for $4 before shipping. I bought a mini displayport to hdmi adaptor from them and it works great.
[Droid X Accessories] LexusBrian400:
Not bad...

Micro HDMI To HDMI

I'd go with the cable for the same price rather than an adapter, any day.
[Droid X Accessories] wakebrdr066:
Got mine cable off ebay for $4 with shipping. 6 foot cable
[Droid X Accessories] Jeffrey687:
Yup. I bought two of them. I watched movies for 5 1/2 hours on my 82" Mitsubishi DLP TV and still had about a 1/4 charge on the battery. The adapter performed flawlessly!
[Droid X Accessories] LexusBrian400:
I have one also, but the720 output is terrible. It s like vhs quality
[Droid X Accessories] megaman81:
That quality degradation is either the codec used in the phone to decode it or just a bad quality movie. The hdmi cable has no effect on quality of the movie. Its digital.
[Droid X Accessories] MrDanger:
Here is where I buy ALL of my cables for my phones and accesories.

I got 3 gold plated 6ft usb cables and 2 10ft hdmi cables for my droid x for about $20. Shipping included.
[Droid X Accessories] JustinD2473:
+1 for monoprice.com

i just got my cable from them too
[Droid X Accessories] antirice:
+2, 2 usb's and 1 hdmi 10 bucks with tax and shipping
[Droid X Accessories] JimSP:
+1 for Monoprice.

They have the best deals on any cable you might need.

I have managed to add my account via Accounts & Settings but only options to sync contacts and calendar. BUT when selecting synchronize -nothing happens - says its been synced but no contacts nor items in the calendar appears!

When going to Mail app and adding my mail account same way it says that it cannot connect to the server. WTF - does the exchange not working at all?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Roy Ngan:
Did you try

Settings > Accounts and sync > under Manage Accounts > Sync Calendar / Sync Contacts "Touch to sync now"

you can set your sync settings here, did you enable Push and auto-sync?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] masi0:
I did that but still nothing syncs :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Roy Ngan:
You might need to confirm if there is any issue at your Exchange server (but Your Exchange Admin will never admit :p

ok, let's take 1 step back, and do some fundamental check

1. did you manage to login to your Exchange in the phone? (you should get a pop-up notification if you failed)

2. did you send any email out?

3. did you manage to receive any email?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] masi0:
It is working with HTC Desire so the answer is yes, my Exchange server is fine

I was just wondering if there is more than just kaos working on the new Froyo kernel, is he the only one all the other devs r putting all their marbles in to get it working, or are there other people trying to get it going as well? What is the process of compiling A new kerenel, how to?

If I can help in anyway I'd be glad to help get things going, I'm sure other people would 2
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
It's probably being looked into on the IRC but I have no idea.
[Droid Eris Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
It's also being worked on by Darch, over at the hero forum, and I would GUESS it's on Conap's to-do list as well (but do NOT quote me on that, as I don't know if he actually is or not).
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
I believe Conap said he's leaving it to the other dev's but I may have him confused with someone else. And the Hero has a ton of work on Kernels that will not apply to us, our kernels aren't compatible.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
ya but Darch is active with the Eris kernel too ... he has provided alot of help to the eris devs

I am not saying he is working on a froyo kernel ... but he did help and actually made a kernel for the eris already

I am not able to get the full controls and the Display text for songs to show up on my wireless Bluetooth Audio in my car that I used to get no problem on my Blackberry Storm..

I just noticed the new update when I opened the Kies in the PC and happily updated in my XP machine hoping that my long pending FW update which I was unable to do can now be done.

But you will not believe, my xp still struggles to detect my device even in this new update, I wonder what kind of update Samsung makes and if you see the version number there is a huge jump between .10071 to .10074 but for what.

Now I am trying to update my Windows 7 machine and let me see if I can succeed atleast there.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tuxing:
i had good device detection in previous version of kies

but in the new version it sucks

also the download said 123mb but went to almost 200mb

in both versions samsung apps store doesnt work, maybe its just for bada os.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sany:
UPDATE: yes finally I succeeded with the update from Kies. The upgrade worked fine like a breeze on my Windows 7.

People try the new update, as far as I can see the new update is not available in the samsung websites. When you open your Kies on your PCs it automatically notifies of an update. Goodwork Samsung atlast, Kies works and now I am ready for the froyo release.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Harts@J:
I would try, if I could download it some day in the near future. Now I have got 266 MB of 123 MB and sit several hours to watch those little pieces to flow from internet to my hard disk. It is senseless waste to update it for downloading a file at a time. Doesn't Samsung anymore can make an installation package? :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] The.Opethian:
Installed the Android SDK and now after the update on KIES, it won't go past 'detecting phone'.

My phone won't connect completely via Kies mode anymore. Oh my.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ancient_One:
Same lost my connection but not sure it was an application installed previously or Kies.

Uninstalled Kies and installed the previous version but still no go same problem.

Has to be something on my Galaxy causing the issue.

I read someone said to format the internal SD and external SD to ensure no files are on it then sync.

That would mean re-installing or backup restore all my applications again.

This is just nuts.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] getaways:
Hi All, I've been trying to get this phone working since Monday. I have installed and uninstalled the different versions of KIES a number of times. Still no joy. Once, today, it recognized the connection, but wouldn't sync to outlook, for me to be able to transfer my contact details across. Great phone (I think!), but awful software. I hope there's a 'breakthrough' soon!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hanzi54:
Kies works fine if you proceed like this:

Check: Galaxy > Settings > About Phone > USB > Kies (ask for BlaBla will not work)

WakeUp the phone from sleep mode

Plug the bloody thing...

... and wait

... and wait

... and wait

... and wait UNTIL you can see the device in Windowz (about 2 minutes)

Start Kies

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Prankey:
Not necessarily. Kies is one of the WORST applications I EVER USED! Terrible from the word go, NEVER been able to sync from phone to Outlook. Also, Outlook to Phone might happen once in a 100 times you try. Else it will give errors like "value does not fall within expected range". What the hell does that mean, hopefully Samsung knows and better improve the product.

I can't resist asking... have you used Nokia PC Suite or - even better, a lot better - the latest, freshly compiled Ovi Suite?

Tears flood my eyes just thinking about using it once again. And I know I'll have to. Kinda like that nasty job you hate but keep having to shuffle yourself to since you depend on it due to lack of skills, education or any fu"#$ing alternative ideas/options....

Yes. You hate it. But you'll use it again. And again. You all will.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] GuestX0057:
Nokia PC Suite is/was horrible and slow but at least it connected, can't say the same about KIES... personally I've only had little trouble with it but there's a whole lot of people who haven't been as lucky. Thank god we can use mass memory without starting up KIES

I have encountered the connection issue as well but that was after i installed Launcher Pro. into my i9000. Once i remove it, the connection run smoothly without any problem.

Hope this help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] thebazman:
when i updated kies i couldnt connect either , my phones said it was connected but kies begged to differ.

i uninstalled kies and all reg keys and downloaded the full kies and voila it worked again.:D

to the above poster get homeswitcher from market and you wont have to uninstall launcher pro , just switch when you want to connect to kies

regards
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ancient_One:
I think it's software conflict which are causing the issues.

I had a fully working Kies with the exception of the Calendar sync but after several application installations I can now not connect to my computer by USB.

I'm thinking of noting down all my software installations and resetting my phone as well as formating my internal memory. See if Kies comes back up.

Then I will install my software bit by bit testing each time to see which software might be causing the conflict.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TheCarl:
I installed home switcher so i can use the default launcher when i need to use kies.

Yesterday i updated kies and it took over 3hrs to download using the update function.

I wish Samsung would learn the magic of OTA.

(and remove all kinds of bloatware like touchwiz)

I wish i still had my old N1.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Beowulf_pt:
Yes mine did connect last week. I'm glad I installed the latest suggested upgrade build with the "Several Stability Enhancements" on the change log. It did connect fine this time.

And after the nicely animated Synch I'm now busy deleting the several randomly-added duplicated entries to both my calendar, notes and contacts on both the device (E72) and Outlook 2007.

That was useful, because it connected. And plus, sorting out all the mess manually will be a great past-time and distraction while I await for Samsung and Broadcom to figure out why gps tracks look like something your 3 year old drew on the living room wallet when you left that CD pen forgotten on the table.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NamelessGRL:
Its been like 2 hours now downloading kies from the update popup while trying to run previous kies. Says its 100% dowloaded but still keeps downloading files like 980mb/123mb o.O and to make it worse i keep having this popup from kies saying "The Internet is not connected. Do you want to check the connection and try again?" theres a Retry button i press in order to continue the download. I have windows 7 x64 and internet speed of 16mb so i dont get it. I thought of going to sleep and let it download all night, but its impossible since i need to press the retry button every minute when i get the pop up. :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
Thanks for the home switcher suggestion, for whatever reason i don't actually have to switch out of launcher pro when i use KIES.

Also, someone i correspond with here in PMs since we are both English speakers in Korea, hasn't installed KIES because he's on a mac. Yesterday we were talking about Swype and since i had asked him about his fw he brought up that he received an OTA update. I was shocked to say the least, and his firmware is as current as mine, however he didn't get the first three updates that i did through KIES.
[Desire General] keramidas:
Hello to all,

just wanted to point out something interesting about the combination of unrevoked3 and ota update.

First of all I have a factory unlocked desire, in greece and had used unrevoked3 to gain root and install pdanet so i could have bluetooth tethering.. i had not installed any roms just unrevoked.

tried to install the ota update but it failed in clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.1 (this was installed with latest unrevoked).

i donwloaded the ota.zip from the link posted here in xda, renamed it to update.zip and put it in root of sdcard. then rebooted from clockworkmod recovery and applied sdcard:update.zip.

now i have froyo normally, version 2.2. the phone is still rooted (superuser permissions still exist in my phone and can run overclock widget) but !! clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.1 is gone .. if i try to reboot into recovery i get the red triangle.

just my $0.02, found this weird and thought to share
[Desire General] gnolihp:
sorry, already get the links, thx.
[Desire General] Kameo:
Hold on, you mean that we can have Froyo + ROOT ?

Not getting back the Root is what prevents me from updating.

Can someone please confirm that Froyo can be rooted, please?
[Desire General] keramidas:
i did the exact thing i described, and now can run superuser permissions.. but no clockworkmod recovery

edit -- i can also run rom manager but it says i don't have clockworkmod recovery installed.
[Desire General] keramidas:
ok, so strange things continue..

i can confirm that i still have superuser permissions installed in my phone but it doesn't work..

it doesn't give permissions to other apps as it used to .. and i cannot boot into recovery.
[Desire General] wargy:
So I guess it's not rooted after all...
[Desire General] keramidas:
seems so.. and there is no way to remove superuser permissions from the phone.

another strange thing! i can install rom manager fine .. even though i shouldn't be able to if i am not rooted .. strange strange strange

My experience with Unrevoked and Froyo OTA:

My phone is a Telstra branded. I got root with latest Unrevoked method, after that I made a Goldcard and runned the RUU for Stock ROM 1.21 WWE. Then downloaded the Froyo OTA direct from the phone and using the Goldcard installed it. So far no problems found. Got HDPA network, GPS fix, WiFi, Bluetooth, thetering, etc everything is working just fine.

My two cents.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnolihp:
I think I found out the problem. In Singapore, the Eclair version is considered branded, build 1.19, which include the chinese keyboard and other stuffs that normal version does not have. And hence, the OTA update downloaded does not fit to it.

So I guess, either we wait for the OTA upgrade or we try to flash some other stock rom and do the manual update ...

So troublesome to try since need to redo all the settings, installing software ...

You guys got any ideas.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rico8787my:
I think is because of the roms u guys using now. For now, only WWE or Europe Rom is eligible for update.

okie, after a lot of readings, confirm that Asia rom got no update yet. So if wanna get the update, need to flash the WWE rom 1.21.405.2 first, then upgrade. Or else, wait for HTC to launch the asia rom upgrade.

So sad, since Asia rom got chinese keyboard (I think this is the only difference), if we try to use WWE general rom, we need to find the way ourself. So, either wait or itchy do, it's up to us. :(

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] annafil:
OK those from Asia who want to do the update to froyo:

I don't know if it will work directly from 1.19, you can try, but you may need to get your phone to WWE v 1.21 first. For this you WILL need a gold card, you will also need a goldcard in order to upgrade to froyo from the update.zip

I am doing this as we speak, for the nth time rebooting hoping it works this time.

IF it works, and it's a big IF right now, I will post detailed instructions.

Edit: GOT IT! :) Woo hoo.

SG user here.

I have been using Froyo for 2+ weeks now. No problem whatsoever for me. But there are stuff that I don't use.

I am using the Official Froyo HTC Sense ROM from AdamG (this is based on a leaked HK test rom which is very stable), with some additions I put in myself.

I tried to use the hacked official 2.2 released yesterday, and I had some problems with one of them. So I decided to roll back to this test rom which had never crahsed on me.

In fact I did a Quadrant Standard test, this leaked HK rom (2.06) I am using scored better than this official 2.09 version. But 720p video recording-wise, the 2.09 is better.

So now my hands are not so itchy any more. I can wait forever for HTC to release the official version. :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pehkblui:
Do you have problem with data ? I saw that in one of the 2.2 hacked version based on this Europe release the APN for our region was missing.

But not a problem, you can always enter them yourself if it is missing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnolihp:
I got to flash 1.21.405.2 WWE Rom hence sync all data first and have clear install, upgrade to Froyo and install and do the settings accordingly. So my Desire consider clean and clear.

And yes, for Froyo, need to do some settings for quite a lot of things to get it work, 3G is one of the issue, need to set the APN manually yourself.

So far so good, except for Google Map, the accuracy is quite bad and slow to find "my location". I use Google Maps a lot since on the street all the time, I found it quite troublesome and still finding the answer for that problem :(
