[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjrmd:
Funny, my wife is using the rooted stock froyo, first leaked build and all wma look fine with embedded art using HTC player. I am using cyanogen latest nightly and it still can't read wma tags at all. But I do like playing with the new DSP settings--worth the switch. As a workaround I converted the wma to mp4 and they read just fine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
I'm surprised anyone had success with wma on any version of android. For me, on 2.1, wma files wouldn't play (but a few DID, which confounds me to no end). Now on rooted 2.2, I experience the same behavior. Just for fun, I used astro and simply renamed the file type of some wmas to .mp3. Surprisingly, it seemed to work. I thought I was on to something. Then I tries that with some Audioslave songs. No worky. So probably the ones I did 'get to work', were some of the few that for no discernible reason, to me, already worked.

I would like to hear more about this issue, actually.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timehunter:
Its a problem in Froyo with both WMA and AAC encoded files. Reported in Google Code, so please go there, sign in to google, then star the issue so it gets some attention:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PianoSam:
Hi,

I rooted my ROM today with Unrevoke 3, and loaded the following Rom and Radio:

Official_FroYo_Market_fixed.zip

and the radio:

32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip

both taken from this board and resulting in:

Baseband version:

32.43.00.32u_5.09.00.20

Kernel:

2.6.32.15-gf9c0527

htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

Build:

passion-user 2.2 FRF91 43546 release-keys

Software Number:

2.09.405.8

Now I cannot login to the Market and internet access seems to be randomly very slow or fails. I get the message when trying to sign into the Market with my pre-existing account that I do not have a reliable data connection.

This is a concern as I can read BBC News Pages on the Internet quick as a flash.

Access to Google and executing searches at Google.co.uk seems to fail.

Has anyone else experienced this? Can anyone help?

All the best,

Sam.

ps. I only acted today to try and resolve the VF branding harm that was done.

[HTC Aria General] booloobunny:
Hi guys, new to the Aria forums. Just wanted to say how impressed I am with this little device. I have an HTC EVO and just received an ARIA as my work phone and I am really loving it. I catch myself using it more than the EVO for a lot. It's definitely a snappy android device!

Craziest thing I noticed right off the bat is how nice shots are on the Aria. The Evo has a pretty lousy camera IMO but when I compared it to the Aria I was really shocked.

Same thing applies for video clips. The Aria wins. Definitely a cool device! It's nice to see a good little smartphone that's not getting as large as the recent devices out.
[HTC Aria General] sillyxone:
it seems like the Evo's pic has wrong focus (the bottle is out of focus) and it's a little overexposed.

Anyway, I have only the Aria, it's good to know how it's compared to others. Thanks.
[HTC Aria General] booloobunny:
You are right. But I've had the evo since launch, took a lot of pics. Aria still nicer imo. I should snag a more focused shot. Thanks.
[HTC Aria General] booloobunny:
It is definitely tough to grab a good focused shot on the EVO.

ARIA:

EVO:
[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
awesome comparison :) looks like they focused too much on EVO's "speedy" hardware and not enough on the camera quality. i know majority of smartphone buyers want 3 things...1. resononable battery life, 2. easy mass texting 3. and camera quality good enough to replace a digital camera.
[HTC Aria General] booloobunny:
I should post two videos in comparison as well. The EVO owners all agree, our "720p camcorders" are lousy.
[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
please do man. i would love to see the comparison and what the hype is about having 720p capabilities. so far as youtube videos go...recording with the standard video recording Aria is fine.
[HTC Aria General] booloobunny:
I love HTC and Android devices, and the EVO is a slick device but it is really lacking in a few key areas. Anyway I am away from my PC now so I won't be able to load any vids up. I should do some outdoor stuff because the low light vids I have I would say are borderline unwatchable.
[HTC Aria General] matt_b:
seems to me the weakpoint of the arias video capabilites come not from the actual video, but from the audio capturing.
[HTC Aria General] cinnamon327:
I just got my Aria, and the camera takes horrible pictures - very blurry (and I hold still and hold my breath). Are there some settings you would recommend?
[HTC Aria General] Nutshell69:
unfortunately , i agree with you cinnamon - i have a very difficult time even getting semi-quality out of this camera

Those pictures of the Rolling Rock are some of the best i have seen from an Aria.
[HTC Aria General] brswattt:
The aria has a lot of potential. Despite it's processor. It's a snappy little device :)
[HTC Aria General] cyberblue:
my Aria takes reasonable quality pictures, esp. outdoors.

i once had blurry/foggy pictures turned out that the lens was dusty.
[HTC Aria General] kaschenberg:
I recommend Camera 360 Pro - hands down AWESOME for taking photos! You can apply effects that'll make it look like you own a DSLR. And you HAVE to have a very steady hand - there is virtually no image stabilization for these devices despite what options you may see - the "software" image stabilization plain sucks. I usually find something to rest the phone on if at all possible for the best shots.
[HTC Aria General] kaschenberg:
Here ya go.....
[HTC Aria General] Elishallen:
Once i let my camera gather enough dust to yield this picture

I dominated your screen; thats right.
[HTC Aria General] CheddarPuff:
After taking a few pictures with my Aria I was amazed at how crisp my pictures were.
[HTC Aria General] Nutshell69:
Agree - i like Camera 360 Pro +1
[Desire General] Afro Az:
Remember a few weeks back when I posted the rumour about the HTC Desire HD?

Well it appears that it may have been more than just a rumour.

http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/07/htc-desire-hd-spotted-in-the-wild-with-evo-like-form-factor-and/

Looks kinda crummy to me. I much prefer my Desire to this one. (If it is the Desire HD).
[Desire General] faddys123:
i want 1 :P it comes out in the uk they wont let me swap it lyk the iphone :(
[Desire General] shure2:
that doesn't look like a aluminium unibody to me, saying that i never thought it would have one anyway, that would just make it far too good looking and competitive lol
[Desire General] aalviedo:
I want one too... I prefer bigger screen.
[Desire General] tuatha:
The hardware is basically identical to the Desire. That 1GHz Snapdragon is looking a little long in the tooth at this stage, especially if you're interested in playing games on it (I'm not, but still). If I was going to lock myself into a 12 month phone contract I'd wait for something a bit more future-proof.

Apparently the dual-core Qualcomm cpus started shipping to manufacturers in June. So if you're smart, you'll wait a while longer...
[Desire General] kilohercas:
damn, i thought that HTC Desire HD will be better resolution ( like IPhone display, maybe even 720p ), dual core 2x800Mhz and better GPU ( better that then Samsung Captivate ).

My next phone will be dual core for sure. but as i see i have to wait for it a little bit longer :(.

But it look like HTC desire :) (well, back look like same color :D )
[Desire General] aindow:
The HTC site now has a new model listed, the HTC Aria which looks very similar to this phone..

http://www.htc.com/www/product/aria/overview.html
[Desire General] Dr.Sid:
It's more like HD2 then Desire IMHO. Which is good, since I won't go to smaller screen then my current HD2. :D

New info, video: http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/09/htcs-4-3-inch-desire-hd-shows-up-on-video
[Desire General] steve228uk:
The Aria is basically AT&T's version of the Wildfire.
[Desire General] dragonithe:
Where are the hardware keys and the optic trackpad?
[Desire General] Dr.Sid:
Good question .. I'd say nowhere.
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Yess.. physical buttons much more desired + 4" screen is also ideal size in my opinion like on Galaxy n SE-X10 rather than 4,3 since it is still a cell-phone, not tablet. You can add wifi-n, native divx support and tv-out (both dlna and wired) to existing Desire features. Then we can mention it really desirable, even -almost- perfect!
[Desire General] gogol:
Yeah, cant wait the announcement (September 15?).

But, I might not upgrade if it is only 4.3" + internal memory (4GB).

Add the new dual core snapdragon and MUCH BETTER video capture (current 480p and 720p are jokes!), I will buy 2 !!!!
[Desire General] Dr.Sid:
As a HD2 owner I say to you: you will get used to 4.3 inches in a day and you will never want go back. Trust me on this. :D
[Desire General] dingdong3000:
looks like its available on oct 1st. amazon had it priced at £415, but took the page down.
[Desire General] CONTACTMC:
Funny, thats the one main thing I miss about my old HD2, I love my Desire, but it took a bit of getting used to going back to a smaller screen.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
Sounds like the flash didn't work properly. Try doing a doc format then reflashing the ROM again. You must not disconnect while flashing and make sure device is not plugged into a hub but USB on PC.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 00gayan00:
meaans???? can u please xplain a bit mor. i jst nd to knw wat do i hv to mk dis thing wrk. thnxx fr ur effrt bt if u can plzz tell me mor stepwise... :S

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gquipster:
Have you gone to the Wiki?

It contains all the information you need.

G

p.s. I could barely read your post - is that some kind of new language or is it just butchered English?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 00gayan00:
oh im really soory. i was using broken english.

i read the wiki and no use.

any other option?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 00gayan00:
i will reflash the rom again. but how to do this doc format thing? can you please explain?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] 00gayan00:
or if anyone can please give me a working link of Helmi_UNI_AKU3.3_v1.2 ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Hope the link on my signature help you
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
Orb, don't know if you've seen the Wiki, most of it seems to be missing - at least in the Uni section. A lot of stuff I posted isn't there, and stuff I remember looking at is also gone. It's very hard now to find things like 'doc format' etc.

Anyway, 00gayan00, I have uploaded the doc format here.

Disable virus protection before unzipping mtty

1. Disable ActiveSync (and also USB connection) at PC

2. Set the device in BootLoader mode and connect the USB cable to the device

3. Run the MTTY tool and select the USB connection during start

You'll notice the prompt - USB> (may need to press ENTER)

4. Type the following command one by one (DO NOT use copy paste) and then press ENTER -

task 32 <press Enter>

task 28 55aa <press Enter>

5. Exit MTTY tool

6. Flash a good/working rom to your device

7. DO the Hard-Reset!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Hi Jonny,

yes I have visited very quickly but must agree with you, a lot of stuff is just simply gone!:eek:

At least some of that info is on my FAQ thread

As you know we have a new Mod on Uni, Leepriestenator, we should put him to work inmediately:D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
Hmm, never heard of him nor seen him around these parts. Why do they give us a moderator who has no interested in the Uni?.. also I see they don't include it in the Advanced Search anymore. Anyway, I can talk, leaving for the Rhodium!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] leepriestenator:
@Jonny... It has nothing to do with interests. A moderator's primary job is to keep the peace and make sure everyone follows the rules.

@orb3000... Its not upto you or anyone else for that matter to "put me to work". Anyways seeing how much you wanted to be forum mod for the Unversal, I have deffered control of the same to you.

Back on topic.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
He´s a great guy Jonny, so we can feel happy to have him around!

And also I will be Moderating Uni section:)

How serious!

Lol

I was joking only

Nice you shared you Mod with me:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] KSandbergFL:
What is step 8.. when you do the hard reset, do you press 0 or X? Or should I do something else, like take the battery out first? I'm missing something...

I have followed your instructions, but my phone still just sits there -- it doesn't boot up. I can see that it does still enter bootloader mode... but it doesn't seem to want to boot, no matter which ROM I use to flash it... I've tried three different ROM's now.

Thanks!

--- KSandbergFL
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] KSandbergFL:
I kept trying ROM after ROM, until TML v8[1].7.1 21028 regular 64MB actually worked!

However, the phone won't connect to my AT&T provider... when I do a manual network search, the phone only finds a TMobile network. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
The two attacments in the first post are different. One is UniversalAndroot.apk 153kb (1st) and the second is X10Root.apk 626kb (alternate). Will the Mini get rooted with the first file or second file or both ? (I cannot test as I have a rooted phone with "Exploid" method).

Secondly this has an option to unroot the phone. Did anyone test that ? And lastly can a phone rooted by "Exploid" or "Bin4ry method be unrooted by this?

Lastly thanks to the orginal developer & account1 for making "Rooting" such a hassle free job.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rollbar:
Installed X10Root.apk from the first post and i have root permission on my X10 mini last night and i'm glad to confirm that's working very well.With Titanium Backup i had removed some apps like Wisepilot and Rollcoaster and it works for all.

As far as I can tell no it can't be unrooted with the apparently, it is slightly different to the screenshot posted but it does work to root the phone and is by far the easiest way to do so, also, doesn't seem to be spyware or malware as far as I can tell, no suspicious processes running that I can find

I used the app. From the alternative link, not the universal root from the first link, thought it didn't work for ages until I realised it doesn't seem to install busybox, used titanium backup to download busybox and from then on its been fine, phone now devoid of all bloatware :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] landy88:
Does it work also on the MiniPro?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] meegs:
Certainly should do, its just the exploid root method but in a one click app and we know exploid works on mini pro

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] banafaen:
What batch backup did you do of your phone? I did a apps+system, then uninstalled some stuff. When i tried to recover Roadsync app, it had no backup of the app itself, only data. Could that have something to do with this:

"10: Why is the "Restore" button disabled for some system apps ?

* System apps are part of your ROM, so Titanium Backup will only backup their data (not the apps themselves). For this reason, if you backup a system app, and then switch to a ROM where that app is missing, Titanium Backup obviously cannot restore the data for it."

Anyone who's done a full backup, managed to recover say; Roadsync or edge? (just as a test, and ofc after u've uninstalled it with Titanium backup)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] parthabhatta:
I rooted my mini with universalandroot.apk. It rooted the phone allright and gave root permissions to all the apps I installed. But then when I tried to get root access from PC by using "adb shell" command the root permission was denied. There is no problem with the apps to get the root permission within the device though.

Anybody facing the same problem and can come out with a solution?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gilfredpaul@gmail.com:
I too rooted my mini with universal root. when you trying to access from PC through adb for first time, your superuser in mini will ask for root permission...allow it.

try it, hope this will solve your problem.

I was a little skeptic using that program and the first one didn't work:

I've just been through the process of getting root on my mini pro,

I used universal androot, no problems.

I d/l'd titanium backup, and clicked on "problems" to download busybox.

Set up sdk tools, there's good guides around so I won't go through the process..

to get su in adb you must have usb debugging set up on the handset, Settings>Applications>Development

and you must allow the su access on the handset when it prompts you.

I hope this helps a few of the people having problems
