I had the same problem the other day. Its weird though because the samsung software would let me copy it over fine, and i could access the file afterwards. As soon as I rebooted I lost access to the file though.

I dont know if it is actually fat32 related though. Does anyone know if we can format our SD cards to be ext3 or ext4? I'd go for that

And for all the people that say to convert stuff: sometimes you dont have time to sit around and wait for a transcode of a 2-3hr 720p video to finish. With a significant amount of hw accel on our captivates the need is reduced
[Captivate General] Unhelpful:
The only supported filesystems on the stock kernel that would help are ext2/3. It might be possible to compile a new kernel with FUSE support, or modules for stock kernel, and use ntfs-3g. I don't know if either of these solutions will work with the volume manager that mounts the storage for internal use, which is probably hard-coded to mount as vfat.

I have used Handbrake to convert an Iron Man 2 Blu Ray movie to 720 x 264 with 30 FPS @ 1500 kbps + Stereo at 160 bitrate (audio) and it played perfectly! File size was around 1.7gb. As long as it isn't over 2g, i should be ok.

HOWEVER

When i tried to do the same with a Transformers movie...same setup and everything.....and when i tried to play on the Captivate...it would flash once, and then not play at all. What's up with that? The Transformers source was also 720 x 262 as well.

:confused:

Any thoughts? All input/ criticsm/ educational bashing welcome, please.

P.S. I also experimented with downloading a friends copy of Avatar also on Blu Ray (about 3.5gb) and was already in mp4 format and transferred straight to my phone and it played perfectly as well.

Hi. I want to my homescreen in HTC HD2 looks like this in HTC Hero with Sens UI. After a couple of hours searching and trying i done something like this (on screen) I got couple of question for you.

All questions are on the screen below:

I use stock ROM 1.66 with HSPL 1.42

Thanks for any help :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrykklasyczny:
Hmm, but i don't wanna use any special programs :)

I change ROM, add a couple of new things and now it's look like this:

Can I change text "Phone" and "Menu" on bottom bar to be transparent (invisible) but to still work as a normal button?

And can I change positions of this text? f.e insert "Phone" text center of this bar?

One more question :) Can I change text under the icon? F.e "Opera browser" change for "Internet".

Thanks for help :)

My friend doesn't have a computer but wants to transfer large files from a droid Eris to me on my N1. We are doing this across the country, so we have to use the internet. GMail won't let her attach the files, it says they are too big to attach, Youcast corrupts the files on transfer.

What solutions do you have to bypass the file size limit in gmail? We want to do direct sending. The files are private and we don't want to put them on rapidshare, etc.

Thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
One of you installs SwiFTP, enables global proxy, the other installs AndFTP and connects to the first one through the global proxy, then you initiate download and wait ages with both phones charging from time to time, because they'll drain the battery very fast.

The smart thing would be avoiding the phones completely, and sending from computer to computer. Or at least using Dropbox or something.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McFroger3:
I second what Jack said.

Just use Pando on your computer.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wumpscut223:
With unlimited net plans on many accounts it makes sense to have unlimited file transfer. Often I have 3G speeds that compete with my home DSL, so the age of personal computer as a necessity is waning.... hence the great specs in the N1 and phones to follow.

I understand FTP as a standard.... what else is out there?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McFroger3:
Then tether your phone to your pc? Its not logical to use your phone to transfer large files over a 3g network, plus your ISP might not like that, since you will be using a lot of bandwidth.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If you like your phone to last less than 6 hours or stay on constant charge - by all means.

The only direct transfer is FTP, and most cellular ISPs don't provide you with IP that can be accessed from internet, AFAIK. Thus the need for global proxy (with phone-initiated connection) to have the phone accessible on the internet.

Nothing else that I know of, definitely not direct transfer.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wumpscut223:
I'm ok with something that is hosted on a server, so long as it is only for the intended recipients. ;) We wouldn't want prying eyes to see would we?

When I said large files, the largest I think we've come across was 150MB, most are in the 7-25MB file size. I'm not talking gigs here, not even a gig a month for sure....

We have been trying to use YouCast, it is in the market... they upload it to their servers via the app and then email the download link to your recipient. It is a good concept but the .3gp files get corrupted quite frequently. Boo. I know the files aren't corrupted before sending because on a resend of the same exact source file the received copy will be corrupted at a different spot and sometimes (hopefully) it gets received with no corruption at all.

With GMail claiming I have 7000+ MB of personal storage, why must they limit my uploads?? whyyyyy?

You both can install teamviewer. Its a RDP software for the PC, but also has file sharing.

http://www.teamviewer.com/products/benefits.aspx

It is a free software for home users. This is the features it has.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdfowty:
AFAIK, mediafire should be able to upload files from your phone directly. It's gonna take a while, and you'll need a file manager from the market, but I think that would be a pretty easy approach

htcleo: Add ColorLED support

We need a modified liblights. We have only a green and amber LED and the control of the LEDs is very simple.

We have only the attributs brightness and blink.

brightness = enabled/disabled the LED ( 0=disabled)

blink = 0-> disabled, 1-Slow Blinking (only Green), 2-Fast blinking (both)

We don't need to set both of them on same time.

So I have found the service mode and under audio\headset\ i cannot figure out which changes the media volume gain

I have adjusted the I2S1 Rx gain and gain analog. I did not make drastic changes, but i was at least hoping for a change.

Can anyone help, I must have sensitive ears because the volume is too loud. Thanks!

I am running CM6 and can't seem to figure out how to delete multiple e-mails at one time using the stock Android e-mail app that comes with CM6. I have 187 items in my trash folder and really don't want to have to click the check box for each one to empty my trash folder. Is it possible? I know I can download K9 Mail but would like to see it if is possible using the stock app first.

Wondering this also since I noticed there is no calibration for it in CM6.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Don't know about on CM6 but on other roms, go to Settings > Display > G-Sensor calibration.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Greenfieldan:
Anyway to do this on non-rooted phones? Ever since I upgraded to Froyo it seems to rotate if I tilt it even just slightly off it's axis

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] BAleR:
If you download, GPS Status from the market and in settings under " Help and release notes " it says this...........

My compass points to the wrong direction or I'm asked to calibrate my compass. What should I do?

Your phone contains a digital compass which measures the magnetic field's strength in three direction with three separate sensors. The orientation of your phone is calculated from these values. Unfortunately the sensitivity of the sensors are a little different. To correctly calculate your orientation your phone must measure first these differences. This is done during the calibration process. To calibrate your phone, simply find a space where no external magnetic field is present (preferable outside of buildings) and rotate your phone 1-2 times on EACH of its three axes (Swinging your phone in big 8s in all direction will also do, but it' less scientifically correct :) ). If you feel that your compass has become inaccurate you can repeat this procedure.

But i dunno if it works or not..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
That just calibrates the compass.

I would recommend against fooling around with the PRI.

The following has happened (after trying 786, 3282 - followed directions properly)

1) It seems that my download/upload have switched. Download speeds avg around 150kbps.....upload ranges from 1.2 - 1.5 mbps

2) Last time I tried updating PRI it said my device could not be properly activated - to try updating profile under settings....or to call Sprint if the problem persists.

Good luck...

Try a different PC, to see if there's somethying wrong in the your usb port.

If even that desen't fix the problem, I'm afraid that your only option is to bring back the phone to SE for repair.

Hi.

I have got the same problem. I have R1BA023 on my X2, but I want MR2. SEUS downloaded software and started upgrading. Status bar is empty and skips at one moment to full. Then add-on says "your phone did not have enought battery", but battery is fully charged. I tried on XP and Win7, downloaded SEUS on Explorer and Firefox browsers, but it's the same. Is it a SEUS bug or is it my X2's fault ? Is there any other way to install MR2 (without using SEUS) ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] u9dbg:
OK so yesterday I had to drive 500+ miles and I was using copilot on my phone, typically copilot decided to crash everytime I actually came to a point in my journey where I needed the sat nav.:mad:

Anyway long story short, my phone eventually died and wouldnt reboot, I tried to recover from nandroid at which point I noticed a lot of folders were missing from my SD card. Including my nandroid backup...

I have now got my phone working with another card, however they one that was in the phone I cannot access from a card reader in Windows or the handset. I did have it partioned with an EXT and SWAP partitions, anyone got any bright ideas on how I can get my 8GB card working again? I am not bothered about the data on it luckily I had a backup:cool:.

Diskpart and diskmanagement wont see the card at all in windows, do you reckon its worth trying an ubuntu live CD to see if I can completely wipe the card and reformat or does anyone know of any low level format tools?

Cheers

If windows can't see your Card using multiple readers in the windows Disk Management prog then its screwed my friend.

Ok so managed to recover my SD card this morning.

FYI if anybody is interested, I used a freeware tool called usbformat (I cant post the link because I am a newb and havent been moderated yet but if you cant find it on google PM me), this managed to detect the the card but didnt seem to care about its current state, it also repartitioned the card back to 1 big FAT32 partition.

After this I was able use the card. :D

Has anyone else had the web brwser crash when the location is turned on(wireless networks) with Wifi only? Its odd.. i have tried a restart and i am sure it did not do this yesterday... any ideas? This seems to be only happening with google.... if i use another homepage i can open the defualt ATT yahoo one np(i noticed a weather wgdet embeded on the page so i assume it too is using my wirless location).. it must have to do with something in how the google page asks for my location accross the Wifi. Perhaps its google and they have changed somthing? Can anyone else use wifi network location with wifi on and go to google(it works fine on the 3g wireless network). Though i cannot for the life of me figure out why the google page will crash when trying to get my location(if i go to settings on the google page and disable get my location everything is fine)... does anyone know of any other sites i could use to test to see if its the google page or the wireless location call?

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] calash:
My Search-Fu has failed me on this, so I am hoping to get some guidance from here.

I have a friend who just got a Droid. Coming from a Blackberry one thing he is missing is the ability to set the phone to wakeup when he takes it out of the holster.

I know the magnets can do this to a point but they put it into car mode or media mode. He just wants it to wake up to the lock screen.

Seems simple to me with the various seniors on the Droid but for the life of me I cannot find an app to do this. The few threads i find about this ether have arguing about how this is a bad idea or point to ways to keep the screen alive and/or bypass the lock screen. Neither of these are what my friend is looking for.

So, does such an app or setting exist to just wake up the device when removed from a holster? It can be a special holster if it is needed.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] [ L ]:
Have him download dock nothingness from the market so that when the magnets put him into dock mode, it instead opens up his home screen.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] calash:
Hmmm, that is not a bad idea. It woul,d require a custom case with a magnet that only triggered when the phone is removed.

So should I assume there is no pre made solution that makes use of the sencers that turn off the display when it is held to your ear??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] [ L ]:
I haven't heard of anything yet, but maybe there is. If he downgraded to 1.5 then there is no lock screen, you just press the power/lock button and the screen turns on with no slider.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] calash:
Thanks for the suggestion but it is not what he is looking for. He is looking for the opposite, keeping the lock screen but having the phone wake up when removed from the holster.

Oh well...next step is to see how hard it is to code an android app :)

I'm a new member here used to come here when I had my ancient G1 and I used to have fun rooting and loading custom roms. At first i didnt want to root my N1 because I loved how Froyo worked but now im running cyanogen 6.0.0 RC2 and its fantastic.

[Nexus One General] nazrin313:
I have to agree with the OP....The Nexus One is the greatest IMO...

I come from a long line of mobile devices, Nokias, HTCs (Winmo), SE (Winmo), Iphones...But non of them gave me the satisfaction from using Android via the Nexus one...updating roms, putting new mods in, mobile flash, kernels, overclocking, themes..its brilliant, I just cant put it down even for a minute....It is hands down the best piece of mobile engineering ive ever owned...

and because of the Nexus one, I will be an Android user for a looong time to come...

(p.s. and although the Nexus one has some drawbacks..but its nothing compared to the benefits it puts out..)
[Nexus One General] avniii:
I knew i wasnt the only one who felt this way haha. Only thing the nexus one does not perform well on is battery life, but it last way longer then my old G1 and Sidekicks. Those god damn black berrys last for days tho im jealous >_<
[Nexus One General] SeEsAw12:
I came from a G1 too and the first thing I did was buy an extended battery for the Nexus. It makes the phone look... different but I love it. I can use the phone as much as I want, all day without having to worry about the battery dying.

If you really care what your phone looks like, don't get it. If you don't, buy it. It'll be the greatest investment in your life.
[Nexus One General] nazrin313:
I think the battery life is pretty good..for the amount of things the phone is doing....example, my phone is bringing the internet to me (updating FBs, tweets, weather, news, etc) and its overclocked to 1190MHz...and im getting around 18-23hours of battery life....my old iphone 3GS which does a lot less then my Nexus one could on avg get 8-10 hours of minimal use...

So again, the battery of the Nexus one is actually really good...
