Actually, if you would've read the popup when downloading from the market; I'm sure it told you the game would keep the phone from sleeping...
[Nexus One General] bennettm89:
Stupid devs? Pretty crappy thing to say considering there are literally tons of terrible wallpaper apps and alarm clocks out there. More power to the devs that are actually utilizing the power and performance of these phones.
[Nexus One General] rcxquake:
Just because there are even stupider devs doesn't mean these devs are less stupid. I appreciate all the work devs do, but little annoys me more than pulling out my phone far away from power and finding it at 30% battery because some app didn't release the wakelock.

how much time it takes to boot your device? i hav some prob. when i reboot all applications are atomatically get started and hav to kill them by advance task killer. any soultions? it takes too mch time for my device to boot.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Contrarian:
That's android.

You can try something like Startup manager:

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] masterotaku:
Only been playing with it for a little bit, but there's a new VLC compatible streaming client available on the Market called VLC Stream & Convert.

It allows you to run VLC on a client on your lan (be sure to add the Web control interface from VIEW/ADD INTERFACE) and connect to it. You can either remote control VLC from the phone....or..you can stream video to your phone from the client side app with a simple filesystem browser.

Though the realtime conversion and streaming isn't the best quality it's most definitely handy and orders of magnitude more seamless than dealing with DLNA.

Maybe everyone else isn't a hardcore media geek with terabytes of video spread about a home lan like me. But this addition to the market makes me happy!

Thought I'd share. :)

This looks really cool. Will definitely try this tomorrow after work!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
You may have just solved a problem for me... I am having some issues though.

I have it installed and working. I find my VLC player through the app and can start videos no problem, but there is no audio.

What AAC encoder are you using on your system? Im running on Win7 and cant seem to get it working.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] masterotaku:
On all the PC's on the home lan I now only ever install VLC, Media Player Classic Home Cinema, and FFDSHOW. VLC's built in AAC decoder generally handles things fine, but if it gets confused (in the case of some encodes with weird FOURCC headers) FFDSHOW usually picks up the slack externally.

I'll run through my collection (it's well over 3 terabytes now so it might take a bit) and see if I run across anything with AAC that this stumbles over. I'm running Win7 x64 on this laptop, so it'll be my guinea pig.

I have a good idea of a few known encodes I have with weird AAC audio header info, primarily because they also won't play natively correctly in the phone's built in video player or rock player. I'll let you know what I find out.

EDIT: Well that didn't take long. It seems that the same encodes with .AAC audio that give the built in player grief (as well as Rockplayer) also refuse to have their audio play correctly in this streaming app. Even more interesting, these all play natively within VLC on the desktop. However, VLC, FFDSHOW, and my universal backup plan when encountering weird stuff that won't play (KMPlayer) all use LIBFAAD for .AAC decoding. Upon further investigation it appears that some .AAC profiles (there are actually six baseline types of .AAC audio...go figure) aren't properly supported by Android's native .aac parser (found this info on DoubleTwists support forums).

Looks like this is a native flaw in Android itself at this point. Going to investigate further. Thank god that there are literally only a handful of encodes in my collection that have this problem or I'd be pulling my hair out. :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] vcxzfdsa:
Can someone show me how to use this to stream over 3G??

I opened ports on my router and got my WAN IP entered but it won't let me connect.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] masterotaku:
Did you enable the Web Interface in VLC on the client PC? It is not on by defaut.

Start VLC on a PC on your lan, go to the VIEW menu....ADD INTERFACE...WEB INTERFACE. With that selected the android client should automatically find the VLC instance running on your lan connected PC. This assumes no additional firewall is blocking the app on the PC.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] vcxzfdsa:
I got it working pretty good using wifi inside my network, so I think VLC is setup properly.

What I'm trying to do is to stream through t-mobile 3G.

I did the port forwarding in my router, but couldn't get the app to connect my home PC via 3G.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] masterotaku:
I've been able to get it to connect via 3G here, though only HTTP audio streaming seems to work. RTSP video streaming seems to be broken via 3g, and again this appears to be an Android issue from what I'm reading.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
From the dev's site, found here

"Why does rtsp streaming not work over 3G?

Some operators don't allow rtsp on their network. Http streaming should work instead but for videos you can only stream the audio track."​

If its true that t-mobile is blocking RTSP then that sucks. Im going to play with it tomorrow and see for myself.

If this doesnt work then Im back to square one. I really wanted to find a way to use the Twonky media server I already have setup and streaming. I have been streaming videos to friends and family for about half a year now. My Fios 30mb up 30mb down even allows me to stream 720p content over UPNP without so much as a hiccup.

First person that can manage to remove the wifi only option in AllShare gets access to my collection. :p . I have been trying to find it but im not really sure what im looking for in the code.

[Q] Backing up Contact-Facebook link? [can a mod assist to move this to Q&A forum?]

Just wondering, does anyone knows how to backup the link between your froyo contacts and facebook if they are manually joined? I know the official app will link contact to the fb contact but it only works if the name is very similar. For the rest, I had to manually edit each contact and "join" them with the fb contact.

My "links" were gone when updating the ROM. Hope to avoid doing this manually again for the next ROM update. :(

I know sense (people app) make use of the notes, but can't figure out for froyo. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT: apologies, had meant to post this qn under Q&A forum. could a mod kindly move this topic over for me? Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rammsky:
How do you join the links? Can you enlighten me please? I'm using Cronos 2.0.2 btw. Thanks in advance!

make sure you have set to display FB contacts in your contacts app

- Edit the contact

- press menu button

- select "Join"

- select the FB contact

- Save

[Windows Mobile Software Development] DoubleYou79:
Hi there,

I had a discussion with my brother on his new iphone and he showed me a software to keep track of his sit up, push up, .... and what ever sessions. It would use the gsensor to count and also check the angle of the situps and correct if necessary.

Now it annoyed me I don't have anything like that on my HD2. Is there anything similar somewhere?

Thanks

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Senax:
Sure dude, you've come to the right place. Its packed using UPX !

Sure dude, you've come to the right place ;) Its packed using UPX !

Simple :D

UPX4PPC

UPX4PPC is a utility for you to compress & optimize EXE/DLL files, just like the desktop PC version.

Our machines have few memory and we are always trying to save the RAM. This program helps you in this task, but it is reserved to power users. It allows to compress up to 40% any EXE or DLL file and, better, the consequence is an improvement in performance.

Attention: do not forget to make a backup copy of the original file. Sometimes, the compressed file just do not work and you need to put the original back in place. For instance, you cannot compress the PocketInformant EXE file.

Despite this warning, it is a very good solution to save RAM.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El_Nino9:
flash clockworks latest recovery instead. can be found in a zip file to flash or can be found in the newest version of unrevoked. the recovery developer has a full list on his site which im sure you can find if you search for it and you can flash that.

once you flash that do a full wipe of the system from the recovery menu. and flash any zip. it should work.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KieranTheRed:
Could be that those roms use a2sd+ and you will need a ext3 partition to use them. Have a search on here to find how to partition your sd card.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El_Nino9:
a2SD+ is optional.

for it to work you need an ext2/3/4 partition on your sd card depending on what rom you are using. i think a full wipe should do the trick. im just trying to get the user to update to the latest recovery image.

Edit: P.S. in wrong section of forum. dont mind helping but it should be posted in Q & A.

[Vibrant General] Hrshycro:
Dear Carbon Fiber Skins Vibrant Customers,

I have some bad news for you tonight. I've stayed up quite late several nights over the past week, doing and redoing the vibrant battery covers. While the 3M 94 di-noc primer does indeed help, it still doesn't seem to be strong enough to keep the vinyl stuck to the harsh corners of the battery cover. I've tried several different ways of applying the material; sometimes its come out well and the corners didn't ripple (yet), and other times they've rippled within 2 days. It doesn't seem to be heat related, but more-or-less time related. Personally, I'm tired of trying and don't really want to sink anymore time than I already have. You should have all gotten EVOs! ;)

I will send the 4 that I currently have done back to you the way they are, however, I can't guarantee that the corners will stay down. I don't feel as if this is a quality or lasting product (like my evo covers), therefore, I'll send the covers back to you and issue a full-refund, unless you specify otherwise.

My Evo's skin is still doing perfectly fine 3.5 months later; I've picked at the edges to see if they were beginning to come up, but no sign of that thus-far. The exact same story goes with all of my local friend's evo battery covers that I've done for them. The only probable reason I can think of as to why the corners ripple up on the vibrant battery covers, is because they're to small and harsh to allow enough bonding between the vinyl and cover.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in this thread and I'll do my best to reply. I'm very busy this week and will be traveling for business over the weekend. I'll mail the covers back tomorrow; please email me when you receive them and I'll issue your refund via paypal.

Regards,

-Sterling
[Vibrant General] Mark271:
Is there any practical use to this?
[Vibrant General] SykesAT:
Op,

We do have an accessory section, best to move this thread there.

Great product. Expensive for what it is. Can get the material from a wrap shop for under $1, or free if they have some scraps. A shop would probably install for $5.
[Vibrant General] talltexan:
Wrap shop?
[Vibrant General] vuvsion:
Double post.
[Vibrant General] vuvsion:
Not everyone has the time nor the skill to do this. You are paying for someone to go buy & stock the material, custom cut the pattern, then meticulously install it to the cover. You are paying for a handcrafted service, and I think $25 is a fair price.

If you can find a shop that can do this for less, let us know. Otherwise thanks for stopping by.
[Vibrant General] larryccf:
if you're using real carbon fiber, that isn't a bad price but if it is real, CF blocks radio signal

i work with CF - CF will conduct electricity, and block radio signal - has some other interesting properties in addition to it's strength, but just so folks are aware

if you're curious of the effect, cover the back of your phone with aluminum foil to see the effect - and watch the radio signal strength drop, and also see what happens to the GPS signals as well

if it's faux CF, just ignore the above
[Vibrant General] SykesAT:
The material is 3m Di-NOC, a vinyl wrap, it's not real cf. It's available at most custom car mod, vinyl wrap shops. It takes under 5 minutes to apply.

If you think it's a fair price buy it. Just know the materials cost less than $1, time required is sub 5mins and with some research you can source materials and labor locally.
[Vibrant General] jkcheng122:
OP, can you provide more pictures of the corners including close-ups?

I'm not 100% satisfied on my DIY and am wondering if I send you my current battery cover with my own current 3M Di-NOC on it you can take it off at no extra charge.
[Vibrant General] larryccf:
mods - pls delete
[Vibrant General] Hrshycro:
Wow. You vibrant users got some *****y ones over here in this forum. Out almost 25 pages on the evo thread - nothing like this has been posted.

If you think you can get this done for $5 bucks, go do it, take pics and post it. I highly doubt anyone, anywhere is going to wrap the battery cover, and hand cut it out to perfection for you.

You're right, the vinyl doesn't cost a whole lot (when you buy it in larger sheets), but besides there, there is a new xacto blade, the return shipping, gas to the post office to ship it back + time, and about an hour to apply it to the cover. If you add that all up, it's less than mem-wage. But hey, since I'm making such great money off this, you can take it over and do it.

Thanks. At least you understand the costs related with business. I'm really doing this more for the community, because I'm definitely making less than mem wage doing this.

Lets see a video of you doing it in 5. Get to it. ;)

Yes, I'll post more corner-focused pics later today. The botom two corners are completely smooth - the upper two corners only have one very small ripple in it, which I've smoothed out. The upper corners are about twice as curved as the bottom.

I can remove it. It's not hard. You can even do it if you'd like. Just heat it up with the hair dryer and peel off.

It's now $20. Which I think is a pretty fair price for something that's hand made.
[Vibrant General] StefanB86:
Thanks for sharing your work OP, it looks great good job. :)

I think it's a good price, i might go for it.
[Vibrant General] SykesAT:
First things first, as I said in my first post, "great product." Your workmanship neat and I'm sure there is demand for it. I just commented on the price.

I don't need to post a vid of it being done in 5mins, a simple search on you tube returns many application examples. As for your suggestions that I "take it over," even with the margins I think you have, it's worth my time. Just an observation, if it was not worth your time you would not be self promoting your product nor would you have created a website for the same.

I did not want to start an argument, nor insult your skill level or integrity. I think its honorable that you reduced your price and I hope you do well with it.
[Vibrant General] talltexan:
Hrshycro Good job, do you offer any more colors or styles? Also this is a Forum so you will have lots of people who will tell you how you can do it for better, just best keep on scrollin while they are trollin.
[Vibrant General] jkcheng122:
Besides the hating stuff from Sykes, this thread does belong in the Accessories section and I believe you'll get more exposure there too as there are ppl aplenty there looking for cases and such, though this one in particular does not offer any protection it also does not add bulk.

Can you PM me the address to send the battery cover to?
[Vibrant General] Hrshycro:
Thanks. I did see that you posted it from your phone, which sometimes leads to more cuticle speaking. While there are lots of videos on youtube of stuff being covered in 5 minuets, not very many of them are real-time. Most are time lapsed or cut together. Also, it's usually bigger items, like cars, tables, ect., which require a lot less time to perfect because they have bigger edges and sharper corners. At least from the ones I've seen. It actually takes me about an hour to do one (30ish for an evo because they don't have any corners at all). This is by no way a money making job for me. I do other work for real money. It's more of a hobby: if people want to pay me todo it, great, if not, I have a DIY for them.
[Vibrant General] Hrshycro:
Thanks. Check out the site. (I haven't had time to add a page for the vibrant) If you're interested in doing it, great. Use the paypal link on the site and I'll send you my address. I'm going to post some more photos today, so you might want to hang out for those. ;)

I only have black, however, since I just used up my first order of vinyl, I'm going to see if their is any interest in the other colors and maybe ordering some in a different color this time. See pic below.

Yeah, right it does. I had a long day yesterday and forgot about posting it in there. It does add some protection from scratches when dropped, and feel/grip (feels like carbon fiber). While it's no where close to being an invishield, it's going to have some of the same benefits, and look cool, too. ;)

Just use the paypal link on carbonfiberskins.tk. I'll send you my address thereafter.

Is anybody interested in another color? If so, let me know.
[Vibrant General] StefanB86:
I'll wait for some more pictures then and i will let know. Thanks :)

Black and white my top favs.
[Vibrant General] Hrshycro:
Great! I'll probably end up ordering white and more black.

I can't believe nobody wants some brown-zune lovin' color on their phone :P
[Vibrant General] eff0rtless:
Hrshycro's thread for the EVO looked amazing so I think I was the first one to get at him to do this on my spare back cover.

btw, I'm not good at DIY wrapping, so I definitely didn't mind the cost to have him provide his service and ship finished product back out to me for one flat rate. I guess for me $20/30 for a phone accessory is normal and isn't a big dent to my wallet. For a one of a kind look like this I'll definitely buy this instead of a generic incase/casemate.

Thanks for the great job though Hrshycro. Waiting to recieve it and take actual pics of it on the Vibrant!
