Well, sadly, thanks to a lack of certain XNA APIs, this is going to remain a concept for a while. But I still sketched something up in Photoshop to give people an idea what I had in mind.

Basically, it's a two-deck player (refresh button top-right would switch decks), with pitch shift (slider on the left), simple transports, crossfader (bottom right) and scrobbling by finger manipulation on the wave display.

The left hand dimmed side of the wave display is already played content and might act as surface for more potential controls (stuff like bass cut, if I ever figure out how to make an EQ work).

The mixer would output either a single stereo channel with the monitor signal mixed in, or dual mono mode, where one channel is the main and the other the monitor (in case you're trying to be leet on a party and mix using the phone). On top of that, there would be single deck stereo-out mode for freaks with two phones. I guess there may be demand for this, since I've seen evidence of Apple clowns doing something like this in the past with their crop of mobile DJing apps.

Filetype support would be MP3 only, there are no APIs to access the system codecs for frame level decoding, and the only thing I could dig up on the web is a C# MP3 decoder.

Right now I'm only waiting for the XNA's XACT APIs to hit Windows Phone 7, or at least something similar. Without raw audio output capabilities, like what that API allows, this project stays at concept stage.

Anyway, opinions?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] SonicFlare:
Looks good.

Multi-touch will sure be usefull there :)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] OndraSter:
Pretty much similar project I submitted to the wp7req for device :D. But it failed because of lack of the access to the raw audio output. Also, not sure if WP7 allows access to media library...
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Tom Servo:
In XNA, you there's a MediaPlayer class you can make use files from your Zune library, from how I understand it, but it still wouldn't give you straight file access.

WP7 doesn't exactly need XACT, but at least something to do simple stereo raw output. One wouldn't even expect low latency from a phone. And maybe APIs to leverage system codecs, but that'll probably stay a dream for a while.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Tom Servo:
Well, this project is definitely on ice for indeterminate time.

To continue, Microsoft needs to allow access to the phone's codecs. The only available MP3 decoder written completely in C# decodes at only 7x in the emulator, which is way faster than the actual phone.

Since there can be up to four decoding instances running (two decks playing, and up to two proxies for visualization being generated), making this application work is impossible without access to high-performance decoder (read: native ones).
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] mesofly:
So sad to hear.

I was pretty excited when I stumbled on your post. I had the same exact concept for an app in my mind when I heard that XNA has access to the media library.

effects aside though, how were you going to account for beat matching and bpm?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Tom Servo:
I wanted to decode the stuff and then interpolate it accordingly for pitch shift and use my FFT stuff from that other application to detect bass for counting. Automatic matching might have been workable in the long run.

The UI was supposed to get a pitch shifter, speed up and slow down and cue buttons, the ability to scrub/scratch. To have it handle like a real turntable.

But as long Microsoft doesn't supply an API to seek and decode specific blocks of audio files, ideally from the music library, there's no point. As I said, the MP3 decoder written in C# that I have here is slow as **** in the emulator already, the phone's considerably slower.

I would really something this: to 'mix' a playlist to share with my friends. It should be easy to use and have some nice effect, just for casual use:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaveMyBrick:
I attempted to follow the procedure in:

the broadbandgenie blog, entry title: 20100822-how-debrand-htc-desire-update-froyo

and after running the updater (RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe) the device went off and will not startup.

- All I get is a operating beep, black screen and illuminated buttons and upper led.

I started out with a brand new O2 branded phone.

If I try to turn it on and plug in to PC, device makes a bird tweet sound and PC identifies it a an empty removable disk drive (with no inserted disc).

If I try to turn it on while pressing the volume down button, PC

My PC identifies the phone as an "Andriod 1.0" and no drive is added, device does not make any sound this way and nothing lights up.

Anything I can do to restore my phone?

Thanks,

Danny.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefan_lewinger:
I am running SkyRaider 2.5.2 and i recently added some of the goodies included in the Rom Manager. I thought i would really enjoy the 'Wake with Trackball' feature, however, i don't like how it also uses the volume buttons and it bypasses the lock screen.

I like the lock screen and allowing all the buttons to wake the phone makes it a lot more vulnerable to "butt dialing"

So (a) is there anyway to just wake with the trackball and keep the lock screen and (b) if not, how do i revert to my old SkyRaider Settings??

Thanks

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superman2112ms:
Why is it that people can NOT read a forum before posting a question? Every forum i have read answers my question with out even posting a question. Why then do people insist on posting a question here and wasting time these guys can be spending on comming up with the MODS we the people want/need. I can not afford a Captivate for another month or so, but I already have a lot of answers/solutions to my questions or potential problems. Reading forums is not anymore time consumming that posting a question and waiting a few hours or days for the answer. I really hate it when I see that an answer is "Its has already been posted. I have read through this forum many times and I think my only remaining question might be in understanding the technical "How to's". HOWEVER i know where the asnwer of "How to" s Located. Just my pennies worth. I can't afford my two cents worth... LOL

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
The problem exists on all forums everywhere. People want to be spoon fed as it is easier then actually searching for answers. Searching requires work, and most people have an aversion to work.

Those who can, use Google; those who can't, ask those who can.

If only i could get paid for my search skills. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skipper86:
Still consider myself a noob

Even though I have been on this site for a couple of years, and have successfully flashed way too many windows roms, I would still consider myself a noob, because I have not the skills and knowledge that many of you do. I myself have been made fun of for posting a "noob" question, and it is not fun. I always search before I ask a question, but sometimes I don't know the correct term to search for, so have no luck finding an answer. I understand how frustrating it is for you developers and advanced users to have such simple seeming questions, but please give some of us a break, not all of us are looking to be spoon fed, but actually have searched and are still frustrated. I myself am an avid researcher. I have been on this site for the past week looking at the Samsung Captivate that I hope to have in my hands on Monday and cannot wait to get started with it. I may have questions so please forgive me if they sound simple to you, I will always search first, and only post if I can't find the answer.

Just my thoughts. No offense intended to anyone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tytdfn:
Honestly its OK to ask the questions as long as they are posted in this section

Sent from my phone so excuse the spelling errors
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesasone:
Well, it's one thing to ask a question where you need help. There seem to be a fair number of people who just ask questions because they are lazy. There was a thread in the general section where the poster said they were considering getting a Captivate, Vibrant or Streak, and then continued to ask the following questions:

1) Has the Bootloader been hacked?

2) Are there custom ROMs?

3) Which has a bigger developer community?

4) Can they use the international (Galaxy S/i9000) firmwares?

5) What are the advantages and disadvantages of using international firmware?

6) What accessories are available?

When informed these questions can be answered with a cursory look at the development forums for both phones, the OP replies they they are looking for "opinions" from people who own the phones. Sorry pal, the questions you asked have factual answers that can be easily obtained by a quick look at the developers forums. Lazy is lazy, no matter how you phrase it.

I think it's instances like these people are frustrated with.

It may take a long time but taking the extra bit of time will save you hours in the long run.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesasone:
There wouldn't be 12345 pages of crap if you people would stop making duplicate threads for questions already answered and linking to news that's already been posted. Do your part.

Also, pro-tip... use the search function to cut down on the 12345 pages of crap and get a few pages of relevant search results.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chvybeatsford:
Dont wanna offend any one but.....

1.U just posted something in the incorrect forum.

2. As stated above some people cannot find the correct search terms. Also searching from xda app is a pita. Cant select a subform only and searches who site .

3. Some people who answer these questions may enjoy helping others. And it can't be a waste of there time as they have s choice on whether r not to answer tge question.

..now I know I posted a thread earlier in incorrect form. Seems my xda app never updated and showed a Q&A thread. Had to delete app and reinstall.So hopefully it will be switched to correct subforum.

Please no one get offended just ranting like th OP......
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
I agree, and usually reading the first few pages and last few pages gives you 99% of the info you need.

But again, it takes time and work, and most people want to be spoon fed - just like in the real world.
[Hero CDMA General] gurusux:
Im able to run my phone for over 20 hours with sync and data on.

How I managed it:

1. Deleted almost every app

2. Flashed 8/25

3. Switched to Launcher Pro

4. Go to CyanogenMod Settings>User Interface> Automatic Backlight> Enable

5. Go to Spare Parts> End Button behavior > Set Go to Sleep

5. Wiped dalvik cache

6. Recharged to full

7. While at 100% charging, wiped battery stats

8. Unplug and let the phone drain to 0% (let it turn off)

9. Recharge and enojoy

If succesfull backup :)

Im using the stock kerned with NO battery tweak. I tried it but since I didnt see any improvement I took it out. 8/25 is amazingly fast with launcher Pro so I dont see the point in changing anything else to my Hero. Now I only install Apps that I really want or that wont keep my phone awake. I use pure calendar, handcent, beautiful widgets...stuff like that

Now after 10 months of use im really enjoying my HERO. I hope this helps those of you that are trying to improve your battery life.
[Hero CDMA General] markus_del_marko:

[Hero CDMA General] gurusux:

[Hero CDMA General] tomatosoup:
How I got 70+ hours of battery

1. Used CM6 Nightly

2. Used TweakTool(still in development http://tweaktool.com but it is the same as collin_ph's battery tweak essentially)

3. Used Decad3nce's experimental BFS kernel

4. Left 3g off unless I needed it

5. ????

6. PROFIT
[Hero CDMA General] gurusux:
I have 3g on all the time
[Hero CDMA General] REDFOCZ:
The best I have pulled on my phone was 32 hours with twenty percent left this was with light to avg use with 3g turned off, unless o needed it....

I was on nightly 8/24 with uncapped kernel #8

Sent from my Froyo Hero
[Hero CDMA General] tomatosoup:
Why? You can use an app like JuiceDefender to set it to turn on every 5 or 10 minutes to allow updates and set it to keep 3g on when the screen is on, could save you some battery
[Hero CDMA General] gurusux:
Sounds good ill try it. Thanks
[Hero CDMA General] Zardos66:
Juice defender destroyed my phones battery life, even when I configured it all, it just drained, drained, drained.

Auto brightness is a waste of battery to me, i set it to 30% and forget it.

My phone makes it through the day, thats all I need. About 30% at 10 pm, off the charger at 7am.
[Hero CDMA General] gorillainthemist:
Same here. With Juice Defender I was lucky if my charge held through my lunch break at work.

The biggest battery save for me is to turn off 3G until I have to use it. By the time I go to bed I still have 40-50 percent charge on my phone.
[Hero CDMA General] gurusux:
Tried juice defender for	around 5 hours and didn't work. At 30% said I had 2 more hours left. During the first hour after setup it drained 9%. That's a lot. Uninstalled
[Hero CDMA General] tomatosoup:
Well fear not citizens, for soon, tweaktool will be released (hopefully soon, depends on how much time i have laying around to program it) and will work for any phone, any rom, etc. Also gonna have new features eventually like 3g off when screen off, and a few other things, spread the word http://tweaktool.com
[Hero CDMA General] PlagaDeRock:
strange I've always had good luck with juice defender. Lately though with how well cm6 is on the battery I've been setting juice defender to only shut off 3g when the screens off and turn it on every hour for 5 minutes to update. My batter life is pretty amazing right now.
[Hero CDMA General] PlagaDeRock:
Interesting. I want in! :D Love playing with new things and tweaking, sounds like your compiling all the best parts of the best battery saving tweaks. Definitely gonna keep an eye on this.
[Hero CDMA General] Big-O-Devil:
sounds great... cant wait...... :D:D:D
[Hero CDMA General] t12icky0:
man you must have a crappy battery then. all i id was turn my 3g off when i dont need it. I had wifi going, gps going(and used both quite a bit). Made a handful of phone calls lasting about 10 minutes each. i have 16/hrs 49/min since unplugged right now and im at 77%. I must be doing something different cuz i can have my phone off the charger for around 2 days and still have about 20% left before i charge it.
[Hero CDMA General] tomatosoup:
Well really it's more of an upgraded version of the battery tweak featuring a gui and some other new things.
[Hero CDMA General] FdxRider:
Can't wait to try it! I am hard (IMO) on my phone 4-5hrs.talking maybe more 5-10 texts and my music running almost all day tho it switches off on a call,m lucky if I get 6-7 hrs out of it. I am in a truck all day, so charging is no problem. Thanks for hard work! :D

hey all, I'm using the official but rooted 2.1 Eclair ROM, and i was previously using the latest 4.x Froyd Froyo rom, now i loved the launcher pro style launcher on there it was pretty awesome. Now my question is, can i replace the launcher on 2.1 but keep Sense UI? as in something like launcherpro but keeping sense :)

I've asked the question before on theming the launcher/ navbar but never got a response, as a themed navbar would better suit my needs! thanks in advance :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2500726:
I might misunderstand your question because how I see it it's a little (extremely) nooby :p

Anyways LauncherPro can be downloaded from the market :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] sassnowwolf:
thanks for the quick reply :P

I'll try and explain in a little more detail. I LOVE how the launcher pro, ADW launcher etc, changes the look of the stock HTC Sense UI navbar, but i want to keep sense, whereas launcher pro etc removes it completely.

So im asking for a way to change the look of the sense launcher/ navbar, for example theming it, ive come across a transparent navbar, but thats not exactly what i was looking for :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2500726:
Well if you look under the theming section there are a lot of themes for FroydVillain. I know Ganii has ported a hell of a lot of themes and among those there's one called "BlackMod" which looks a lot like Sense :p The only downside is that you will lose your Sense widgets but there are seriously to many upsides of FroYo to think about that :)
