Pls guys... dont tell me none of you had this issue.....

help me out here ... i really need it .....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy_fozzy:
Hey,

I got mine sorted.

I bought something very similar to THIS

My one is slightly different. Only has one button on, which isn't going to get used anyway!

The above one would do the same I'd imagine.

Cost me £11 from Best Buys :D

Works an absolute treat. And sounds much better than my old iPhone.

Just need to run another cable from the adapter to the phone, and away you go!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmdeathwish:
Hmmm... that is a good solution for this....

But then again i think there was an HTC phone review where i saw this option pop out when u connect anything into the jack... lets see...

As for that .... ya that is a good option...

But lets hope someone comes along for another solution...

Ill have to check if something similar to that Jack is sold here in my country in India...

Thanks for the heads up man... appreciate it :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harpocrates:
wanted to post this as a seperate thread..also posted it as an answer to another nrelated thread where the question came up..

these are stereo headsets for music and calls...the ear bud options might work for you guys while driving:

I own 3 bluetooth headsets (yes i own every tecky geeky corny cool gadget I can find...usually I just test them out and sell them for a profit on ebay :P).

I bought these Samsung SBH600 on woot during a one day sale for 55 bucks (shipping included) and you cant find them anywhere now (sorry...if you wait anywhere between a couple of months to a year woot may have them again..its one sale a day there). They are 30% passive noise canceling and really good quality. Can be used both for music and calls:

http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=14521

These also have a wire for a 3.5 mm jack so you can use for music only if you ran out of juice.

This is the amazon listing in case it ever become available again:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002CX03PA/sr=8-2-fkmr1/qid=1286355036/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1286355036&sr=8-2-fkmr1&seller=

For comparable ones you can find the previous model but i cant vouch for those:

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SBH500-Bluetooth-Wireless-Headset/dp/B0016I6GUS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=mobile&qid=1294670770&sr=8-1

You will have to check reviews and I do not think those have any noise cancelling properties. I think they also lack the 3.5 mm jack.

i also have the moto rockr headset:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001LXR0BW/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=1278548962&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B001EKQQ5S&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0D7YT72QD8CD9NMWYTKH

This one is more of a startreky kind of look like a backwords visor. They have earbuds and it hangs behind your head. Good quality and has volume control and answering calls etc. Does not have 3.5 mm jack so bluetooth is your only option or noise cancelling.

Finally I have the very first version of these sony bluetooth headsets which also have a little led display on them. They can connect to more than one device so you could have them connected to your ipod and phone together for example (I think the samsung has that too but I havent tested it out).

http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset/dp/B003DQ1DCM/ref=pd_cp_cps_0

Other options I do not own and cannot vouch for:

http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-S305-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset/dp/B002BH3I9U/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1294671987&sr=1-1

http://www.amazon.com/Sony-DRBT101-BLK-Bluetooth-Headset/dp/B001QXDSMW/ref=sr_1_8?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1294671987&sr=1-8

hope this helps...its usually the stero headsets which will play music and then answer calls...the ear muff style is good for planes etc..the earbud style for driving and stuff...

[Touch HD General] willcor:
my advice is for you is to read the XDA..WIKI PAGE relating to

the HTC BLACKSTONE @ touch hd.....link here

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Blackstone

regarding your activesync problem it is a common problem and discussed in this link

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Blackstone_Tweaks_Tricks_Tips

..halfway down page you will see heading.....

" ActiveSync Auto-Run Fix

[edit] How to stop ActiveSync from turning itself on all the time"....

follow instructions ..

it works .(i have done it a few times after a hard reset.>!!!)

i would also advice you to used a decent task manager ..the one you use is very limited .plenty 3rd party.. task manger around ,..just search..!!

if you read the wiki carefull ..you will see answers to your

eg...ringtone, alarms..sounds question !!

... but here, just to consider ,is some advice..

some 3rd party alarms ,use mp3's..

but otherwise drop a .wav file( think it is less than 30 kb, in size ?? ) in device/windows directory ...then select it as normal in you sounds options

good luck

[Touch HD General] willcor:
for a reliable task manager i use ..DOTFRED's TaskManager..version 3.3

http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm#v3.3

(it is a free software )

it is finger friendly and i have been using ,previous versions ,for a long time

very good taskmanager ..with a lot of functions..eg processes,.regedit etc.etc

and make sure it is for.... WM6/WM6.1 ..( cab file )

..if you have original ( stock ) ROM ..on your device /phone

otherwise, plse check other version...available ?

...but i know of a few others ,that is just as good ??...

e.g MMTaskmanager ,SHOWCASE,ARKSWITCH,XTASK ..ETC

3rd party... alarm applications

eg.."G-ALARM". but is paid software..(very good ) uses mp3

you can also read this thread about alarm....

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GantMan007:
So, let me describe the vision to you in a few sentences.

You're walking around the house, and your office, your media center and your laptop in the kitchen are all playing the same song. You're getting ready for BLAH and the whole house playing the same song (like they're all tuned in to a radio station) but the song isn't really a good one. So what you do, is you pull out your android phone and hit "NEXT SONG" and then suddenly the song softly transitions to the next song on your playlist.

Someone tell me how to make this awesomeness happen. :cool:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] minus30:
I guess this should be fairly easy if you have a setup in your house already (Windows Media server + streaming devices or similar).

Then the only thing that has to happen is you sending 1 command.

I think this can even be set up with free apps like Gmote.

As Bluetooth is a standard protocol, all keybords should work... IMO
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] barbarisch926:
I am trying to implement a simple system call hook. My method was the same method used by standard linux rootkits like adore. this method worked for hooking sys_open and other file IO system calls. but when i tried to hook sys_fork and other process related system calls my android phone crashes (Nexus one, Motorola Milestone, and emulator). Something inherently different about Android either ARM or android kernel is different from basic linux machines which wont allow me to use the same method to hook the system call fork. Basically my method is below, this is implemented via a LKM on a phone that i have root access on.

//save pointer to original function

orig_fork = sys_call_table[__NR_fork];

//point sys_fork to my my_fork function

sys_call_table[__NR_fork] = my_fork;

//call original fork call (simplest case)

asmlinkage int my_fork(struct pt_regs *regs)

{

pid_t pid;

pid = (*orig_fork)(regs);

return pid;

}

Some how i think the stack is getting messed up. I looked at the source code for the kernel and found that the sys_fork isnt actually in the system call table. Instead it is a sys_fork_wrapper. This wrapper is an assembler function with two commands which lead it to branching to sys_fork. Sys_fork in turn calls another function called do_fork. Through debugging methods i was able to confirm that my call to the original fork function was returning correctly, but when i try to return the pid within my own function the crash occurs. Now whats interesting is that I was able to confirm that do_fork is called many times without calling sys_fork for many processes on the phone. So when i do the simplest process i can think of by starting up a shell the phone didnt crash. But it wont open up a shell. The terminal locks up when i try to open the shell. Starting up a shell will call a sys_fork_wrapper->sys_fork->do_fork like expected. Starting up another more complicated process such as calculator it will call sys_fork_wrapper->sys_fork->do_fork->do_fork->do_fork->do_fork.... so bacially i am left with lots of questions about why hooking sys_fork is not working.

In reality I am hooking an assembler "function" and not a c function. The sys_fork_wrapper does branch command without link which led me to believe that there is no return from it, from the program counter perspective.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] michaelmotes:
Did you ever resolve this issue?

Maybe you could try some inline asm in your code to just jmp to the orig_fork, if it is an assembly function that doesn't return, i.e. just a jmp stub itself.

I would like to hook sys_fork as well, to present a dialog box every time a new app runs and to allow me to block certain apps from starting.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Furinax:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTNIJO:
Hey all. Apologies if this question has already been previously answered. Ever since installing the Skyraider 2.2 Sense ROM, my signal strength and 3G connectivity have been acting a little funky. Phone will flip flop between 1x and 3G in areas where it never used to, as well as loose signal in those same areas. I'm wondering if this has to do with an outdated or oddball PRL. I can only assume it's not a safe idea to perform an automated PRL update on a modded rom, but I don't know for sure. Anyone out there have any advice?

Thank you all in advance for your help!

[Android Software Development] Innova133:
Our user profiles are stored on a networked share (\\shared-server\clientdata$\username). When I create an AVD through the SDK and AVD manager everything seems to appear to work correctly.

When I try to start it I get the following errors:

emulator: ERROR: unknown virtual device name: 'test_avd' emulator: could not find virtual device named 'test_avd'

I am assuming this has something to do with our user profile being on the network.

If I copy \\shared-server\clientdata$\username\.android to c:\Users\username\.android, after creating the AVD I can then start it up.

Is there an easier solution to this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYRican:
Hi,

I searched around but can't seem to find any help with why I can't flash ROMs from 32GB cards. I've tried it with a class 4 Topram card then after I returned it I tried again with a class 2 Sandisk . Everytime I load the bootscreen for it to search the root of the card for leoimg the screen just flashes and continues to bootscreen without finding the ROm file.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WIzard200x:
May I suggest you try a maximum size of 4GB microSD card and format it with FAT32.

I honestly couldn't reproduce the threads right now, but I seem to remember reading about this issue before, concerning both 8 and 16 GB cards - So it seems logical it would apply to 32 GB cards as well. I don't know whether this is related to memory addressing issues or some other limitation - FAT 32, perhaps? (please, someone enlighten us both if you know) but using a 2 or 4 GB Card prevents the problem from occuring altogether.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
as above said, most 16gb cards don't work(only know one person who has said the successful y used a 16gb card) and many 8gb cards don't work, so its a safe bet that a 32 is not gonna work. 2gb seems to be the optimum size, but 4 should work too.

for me, i have a 512meg card i use on the very rare occasions i use sd.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NYRican:
well since I got my HD2 I've used its 16GB sandisk to flash ROMs to the phone and have never had an issue before but both 32Gb cards I've tried just don't seem to respond.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkoper:
Thats rather strange.

Theoreticaly you should only be able to flash from SD cards. During booting a driver is loaded so that SD HC cards can be read by the phone.

i.e. everything non SD HC up to 4GB should work fine, everything SD HC above 4GB should not allow flashing.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ClydeB1:
My Sandisk 16GB SDHC card also works perfectly for flashing on the odd occasion that I use it for flashing that is ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
hmm, that is interesting, I can't flash from my sandisk 16gb, class 2. Not sure why others can.

I can flash from 8gb class2 and below though. I use a 2gb sandisk just for this purpose.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doward:
So I'm searching and coming up somewhat empty handed.

Is it possible to engage Car Dock mode on the Evo via magnets, ala the Droid?

I'm also finding information regarding shorting pin 4 of the MicroUSB port to engage Car Dock Mode, but I'm also finding information saying that shorting pin 4 just tells the phone it's on a 'proper' USB charger.

So what's the deal? Do we even know how to engage Car Dock mode via hardware?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafroehlich2:
I believe HTC uses a 5th pin to let it know it's on a car dock.

Sent from my PC36100
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doward:
USB Micro B calls for 5 pins -

Pin 1 is 5+, 5 is Signal ground

Pins 2 and 3 are Data+ and Data-

Pin 4 is listed as an 'ID' pin - if connected to ground, it's supposed to show a detection of 'Type A', if not grounded, then 'Type B'

I would think if pin 4 is utilized as 'grounded means 1000mAh charger vs USB's usual 500mAh' then how would the Evo differentiate between 'wall charger' and 'car dock'?
