It’s the setting on Pocket DivX Encoder. If you set it to archos 604 series, there are more than 1 archos. If you look at Pocket DivX. Below video quality below audio quality below brightness and sound it says the output dimensions. Change the archos device to the one that gives480x272 and it may get rid of the purple line.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tersagun:
Hey guys,

I just started using Touch Pro 2 (my first ever PDA) and installed the Divx Player for PDA's.

When I run a divx file, it's kinda stuttering, not very fluent and smooth. Also some minor lag between video and audio.

Is it usual, considering the relatively slow CPU, or I should be using some other decoders/players for a better performance?

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bmhome1:
AVI/Divx are ancient, inefficient codec containers.

MP.4 (h264) make far more efficient use of CorePlayer's capabilities.

There should be zero tearing, stutter, etc (with Sense running) with proper settings.

Try PSP profiles for 368x208 resolution (higher wasted and bog down playback) and at as high bit rate you can manage.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ideedeequeuedee:
Alright, so let me start off by saying that i'm a complete noob in the world of smartphones! I think i'm ready to throw a custom rom on my phone, but before i do that i'd like to have a couple of things clarified before i start screwing my phone up ;)

So, in order to flash a custom rom onto my phone, firstly i need to downgrade my HBOOT from 0.92 to 0.80. No questions here really, seems pretty clear.

Then i need to gain root access to my phone, basically a 'protection' built in by most operating systems so that regular users wont screw things up by deleting/changing settings.

After that, i need to flash a custom recovery rom. This is basically a replacement for the original recovery screen which allows us to flash backup-images that we made (as the original recovery screen does not allow this). Correct?

Then i can flash a custom rom, which is nothing but a customized operating system by having certain things optimized and/or removed.

Now lets say everything worked out well and i have a custom rom on my phone, this means i have; Custom ROM + Custom Recovery + HBOOT 0.80.

If, for whatever reason, i need to send my phone back for repair. I would have to;

- Flash the backup-image that i made before starting this whole process.

- Flash the original recovery rom (is this possible?).

- Upgrade the HBOOT back to 0.92.

Correct?

I think thats all, thanks in advance!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
1. You cannot make a backup image before starting the whole process. Nandroid to backup the whole system is only available after root.

2. You can flash the original rom, IF it is available.

3. The hboot would be upgraded automatically if you flashed an official HTC rom.

So basically if you are concerned about warranty issues and reverting back to stock, I'd have a look in the dev forum for official untouched roms, and see if yours is there. If it is then you just download it and flash it when needed. There is a thread listing official untouched roms for this very purpose!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Here's where you can get the stock HTC ROMs - if your current ROM is listed there then get it in case you ever have to unroot...

http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/

You can only downgrade the HBOOT from 0.92 to 0.80 if you have an AMOLED Desire - if you have an SLCD Desire you'll need a bit more work (at present, should change once unrEVOked gets updated)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ideedeequeuedee:
Alright, thanks for the heads up! Just one more question, where can I see which rom I currently have installed? I have an unbranded HTC Desire with the 2.2 OTA update.

edit\

One more question, when downgrading my HBOOT from 0.92 to 0.80, do i need to make a GoldCard, or is this only needed for branded devices?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
A goldcard is normally only needed for a branded handset so you should be fine without one.

Your software version is found by Pressing menu, then tap about phone > Software information.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ideedeequeuedee:
I knew where to find my software version, just wasnt sure which i had to download. I think i found it.

I have version 2.09.405.8, that should be this one:

Thanks a bunch! Going to play with it today :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ideedeequeuedee:
Alright, so i installed a custom rom, didnt like it and decided to go back to stock 2.2 FroYo. My nandroid had a backup of a rooted 2.1 image, but using the system update from there didnt work as it whined about signatures.

So i ran the RUU update from my pc, everything is back to stock. 2.2 Froyo with a 5.x radio and 0.92 HBOOT.

Now i wanted to see if Clockworkmod Recovery had been removed aswell (read: see if the original recovery image was on there), but when i boot in to recovery mode, i get the red exclamation mark. After pressing Volume Up + Power i get the following message:

Is this normal for phones that 'haven't been messed with' (if you know what i mean ;))

I just don't want to get warranty issues incase something happens :)

Thanks in advance again!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolfd:
Yes, that's totally normal. If you ran the ruu then you are back to an out of the factory handset.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ideedeequeuedee:
Alright awesome, now i can go arround messing with ROM's again without having to worry that much. I guess i just had to go a bit of a trial and error to find out how it works, i've learned alot.

Just need to find a rom that looks close to a 2.2 stock one. I tried OpenDesire but didnt like all the custom stuff :)

Thanks!!

I have tried serval roms and experiances differwnt issues with each including battery meter not reading onscreen, which i currently am still trying to fix.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiddo_artist:
Hello everyone,

I'm having problems with my HTC Desire and would appreciate if anyone could help. The HBOOT version is 92. None of the RUU is working. How do I downgrade it to 80 if I have no access to the Android boot screen? When I turn on my phone it only shows ta black screen with a HTC logo in the middle and and exclamation point in a triangle in all corners.

Please help me revive my HTC Desire.

I'm still positive though someone will be able to help. Thank you in advance.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensi_:
hi, i had a small problem last night whereas my phone got stuck in a restart loop after installing a developers theme via MetaMorph

After this problem i now want to be able to fix any changes to themes that i make, and if i mess something up i want to be able to restore it without reflashing my device.

Im sure that if i backup the files that are being changed in modifications i download, or ones i make myself, then i can restore these files or packages in download mode via ADB?

so in cmd i can backup with:

adb pull /system/app/framework-aes.apk

and then restore with

adb push framework-aes.apk /system/app

i can possibly even back them up just using Root Explorer, but when pushing files back on my device i get the error, 'insufficient permissions'. I have read about opening Root Explorer and adding the permissions from there, but they dont allow me to change the system folder, as its read-only

Any help appreciated!

Edit:

Off-topic im also interested to know if its possible to extract the .dex files to get the .java classes out, im guessing they are compiled

thanks

[Droid Incredible General] marcmarshall:
Haven't installed 2.2 yet Is bluetooth dialing in it? I miss out.

Yes. Unlike blackberry, it doesn't confirm the name before dialing, which leads to some misdialed calls, but overall it is very nice.
[Droid Incredible General] marcmarshall:
Great. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible General] KidJoe:
Bluetooth dialing in Froyo is the same as the regular voice dialing app, just available via bluetooth. So I experience the same accuracy via BT now that I had via the phone's mic before.

Its not as accurate as Nuance on the Devour, X, BB, or LG feature phones, BUT its better than nothing!
[Droid Incredible General] NYC Coyote:
So if this is based on the same function, can you instead if saying "Call Joe Shmo"..... Can you say "Email Joe Shmo SUBJECT Test MESSAGE blah blah blah".....

Hello folks,

This is my first post here so I am glad to be here. I just installed the Autoboot program for my build as specified below. I was testing the ChuckyDroidROM (which I really love for its simplicty) with both Matt's Froyo with Sense UI (which I enjoy quite a bit) and the Cyanogen Mod version with shubCRAFT 1.4 and I am finding that I am getting a much better battery life with the latter.

So basically I would like to get a reference for battery life with the tweaks here for each type of combination out there so that we can get an idea of what people are getting.

After all, I am sure that we can get longer battery life that of the EVO can we?

Thanks, Albert :cool:

as long as you put the android on sdcard, the answer is no
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deli_gt:
battery

It doesn't matter so much if it runs on sd, because mainly it's running on memory of the phone and it's same as other android phones.

In ways it's even better/faster than phones nand if you have quick sd card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Tydi:
Android need to access to sdcard to launch and work. Sdcard access has a power consumption ... So Power consumption is higher in Android, but when a Nand Version of Android will be released, it'll be proximately the same between Android and Wm.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] markmarkr:
I'm not convinced NAND will help battery life all that much, my battery use is dominated by cell standby when I'm not using the phone, and screen when I am. NAND won't reduce either of those.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dornstar:
I'm using TMOUS Energy Reference, Leo_Radio_2.12.50.02_2 and Xcelsior's with great results. Battery easily lasts an entire day.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] qipengart:
I tested it out with the build in my signature and got about 12 hours of heavy use using 3G but tomorrow I plan to use only EDGE and hopefully get better life for sure.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] willgill:
There are too many variables in everyone's configuration to do a comparison of battery life(twitter, Exchange, POP, IMAP, Facebook, web usage, talk time, WM ROM, Android build etc). However, it might be useful to show what works for individuals and share ideas.

I don't buy into the "NAND saving battery" too much. It's still memory that needs to be accessed. It will be faster on NAND, but better battery life? I don't have the specs on power consumption per access but I would think an Android build that utilized hardware more efficiently would have bigger impact.

Take for instance your example.... why is your shubCRAFT using less battery than mattc?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] stirkac:
battery won't improve very much in final versions, maybe -10% or so (+sleep)

but will never get as good as in WM, because android doesn't have very good optimized PM (even when they finish as much as it can be done). look at any android vs. WM device with comparable internals and you'll see that wm has much longer stand-up time ;)

but hey if you take into consideration hd2's tiny batt i think htc has done some great job with hardware :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] qipengart:
I plan to downgrade my radio from 2.12 to 2.11 and I suspect will increase battery life a lot. Will post more later.

Hi I would like to know if there's any good players for the galaxy s (android apps) that plays .asf files and would allow me to listen in the background, and while the screen is off?

I know I can play the files using the built in video player, but since it's a video player it wouldn't allow me to have it running while the screen is off or play it at the background. Also I want to avoid conversion of the files to other formats.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I am experiencing some unusual Gmail issues the past week...

The problems have been seen running CM6 RC3 as well as FRF91 STOCK. I've also tried both the latest "official" radio as well as the Korean radio.

Gmail delivers to the phone without issues, but after marking emails read, Gmail on any PC I've used does not show those emails as read.

Also, any reply or new email that I send sits stuck in the outbox. Checking on the PC does not show that the message sent.

The phone has plenty of available memory. It has been rebooted time and time again. Caches have been cleared out.

Any ideas as to what the issue might be and how I can remedy? Needless to say, this is rather upsetting, not to mention is defeating one of the purposes that I got the phone for.

Hi all..

Just as the title says really.. and further to this thread.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=762033

My partners Desire will not come out of Safe Mode, I took the phone into a T-mobile shop (UK) today and they were useless. They amazingly advised me to try reflashing the ROM because all their tech guys would do anyway and I'd have to wait 28 days.

Frustrated by this I thought I'd reflash anyway with a signed T-mobile ROM and used version 1.21. The flash was fine but the Desire still boots into Safe Mode. I am going to try the WWE ROM in the hope that there might be a difference in it to the T-Mobile one. It's really frustrating because I know the buttons have worked when I managed to once get the phone to boot normally.

The next option is to root and install a custom rom, however if that fails I need to be able to put everything back to stock so that T-mobile will still replace it under warranty... any advice or suggestions please folks?

Performing a factory reset using phone buttons

If you cannot turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.

1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button.

2. Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button..

3. Press VOLUME DOWN to select CLEAR STORAGE, and then press POWER.

4. Press VOLUME UP to start the factory reset.

Have you tried getting the zip of the rom putting it on the root of you sd card and changing the name to pb99img then booting to recovery and selecting fastboot?

This wipes everything and installs the rom, you need the zip to do it though, not sure where you can get it for the TMO rom, you can get the generic WWE zip from shipped roms, you might need a gold card.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busterdan:
I can get to the bootloader and clear storage/factory reset but this is for TMO UK ROM 1.21.... which in itself is probably fine except there is this persistent Safe Mode problem.

However I have screwed up I think... basically I had Unrevoked running, what I didn't know or expect was that the Unrevoked app would update my bootloader immediately after I updated the hboot USB drivers... oops!!

So now whether I like it or not I have the Unrevoked boot loader.

The Desire still start TMO 1.21 but again Safe Mode... as a result Titanium will not run and neither will BusyBox so even if I did now decide to try and install a custom rom it would appear that two of the key steps can not be carried out because of Safe Mode grrr! :mad:
