Ok, I think I have this in the right forum? I have been trying to find the ancient nettools_arm.cab or nettools_arm_setup.exe for quite some time.

Does anyone know where I can grab this from?

I am trying to modify the routing table, and need the ROUTE command this thing has!

[Epic 4G General] AndroidMilos:
Okay, just to step back a little, I installed Google Talk to my Gmail on my desktop pc (free phone calls to anywhere any phone in the USA). It works over internet (VOIP) via wifi at home.

I have Google Talk on my Epic 4G.

1. Does it work the same way as on the desktop?

2. Does it work over wifi for true VOIP?

3. If so, are the calls free or do they come off my minutes plan?

I had set my Epic to "wifi" mode and made a test call to my other phone. It went thru but- did it really go thru wifi or did my Epic sense it was a phone call and routed it via 3G?

If indeed Google talk does VOIP phone calls from the Epic, then there would be no need for me to get one of those "Airaves" as I only have 0-1 bars inside my house but 3 bars minimum outside (3G and 4G)

Been looking for HD content to feed my Epic but I transferred a video from iTunes to the device and it won't play (.mp4). The disc I have also has the .wmv version but it looks like the Epic doesn't play .wmv files. Any suggestions?
[Epic 4G General] Aridon:
It plays .wmv files fine. It sounds like a drm problem. You will have to strip out the drm. There are several viable ways to do it with certain drawbacks (usually audio sync issues).

For an example on how one could possible do this check here:

There are other programs, some free, some cost so do some searches and see what will work for your needs.

I don't know if this has been asked but yes i want to know exactly what are the benefits of rooting the EVO since it has 2.2 now and so it sounds interesting and i want to try it but i want to know what i will get out of it

Also, if i root will i be able to use the HTC widgets on LauncherPro

And i saw on this article that u can tether? like use the hotspot? but would it still charge me or would it be free

What are ROMs and why would i use them?.

If so which ROMs are recommended

AFTER following that thread, after using the search button on the top right hand of the screen, if you still have questions about rooting, please feel free to ask a "specific" question.

The "benefits of rooting" cannot simply be answered in one small post. There are dozens and dozens of threads already about this, not to mention full sites dedicated to rooting and why do it.

I don't know if anyone is working on that Hulu app but it kinda really sucks that it can't zoom automatically. So I made a Hulu application but with zoom functionality and a sort of lights out functionality.

any suggestions as to other things I can add to it?

EDIT: It is not finished, but some asked to see it so you can install it and try it out. It has some bugs atm but if you want to see where I am kind of going with it push it to your phone. Also note that this has the same limitations as the other Hulu application you need to have that custom edited flash install.

Start a video, then press the menu button and hit the Zoom button.

You'll probably notice that the background looks strange I was in the process of restyling it.

This app does not seem to work as good as the other one floating around. The video seems to stutter and stop a lot and I get the "the video is not optimized for mobile" which I dont get any of that on the other version. Also the video, when zoomed to fit the screen, is jerky where with the other app, its is 100% smooth.... Also at one point, the video pixelated and then the program shut off and i was back at the sense screen.....

as far as Zoom, on the other APP, I just use the pinch zoom and get it to fit the EVO screen as best I can...

Is there any other twitter app that is free for HTC HD2(leo) ? because Peep, which is the preinstalled app for twitter keeps saying that my account is forbidden from accessing twitter.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JonnieLasVegas:
I haven't found a free twitter app that's even near as good as peep for the hd2 winmo. But when I boot up in android I use tweetcaster & tweetdeck, very good apps, both free for now.

HTC hasn't updated their peep app to work with twitters new configuration, although they've had a few months notice to do so!!!!

it clearly states that that have a problem with htc peep and they trying to fix it. i think this just started because i used peep like 5 days ago lol and it worked. but its not your phone problem its the twitter's server...

oh and a good twitter app its motweets i have that ;)

I'm currently using moTweets 1.84

It works looks okay but the freeware version does have small ads. Find it here
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chrisjasper:
Yes, unfortunately Twitter state that the issue is fixed when it quite clearly is not.

The onus is on HTC to update the Peep software, they have had more than enough time to do so.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dXsL:
FYI: twitter has changed its authentication method, and the the new method is not supported by HTC current Peep package (not in original HTC ROMs, neither in ROMs found here). HTC has to come with a new package.

Failing that (or, waiting for that), someone could answer the question in post #1 :D

Tried out motweets, it's pretty good, especially for free. I still prefer peep on winmo (like the simplicity & look of it) & tweetcaster is leaps & bounds ahead of this one on android, but over all it's a good twitter app. Thanks for the link, lots of goodies on that site!

IM+ worked perfectly on my blackberry the last 4yrs and they have a droid client free & paid. But, it doesnt appear to connect to Skype since I have been trying it.

Besides, the droid is a rough beta compared to the look, feel and behavior of the rim version....

I believe the Verizon exclusive partnership with Skype is holding things up at this point.

Is there any stable Skype chat 3rd party client out there, i can wait for video chat by stressing Qik...

For those thinking about getting the Vibrant/Captivate or pretty much any variant of the Galaxy S DO NOT.

I contacted them via FB and this is the only answer they sent me

"We are working on it. We're sorry about this issue. Please be patient as we know how important this is. Thanks for reaching out!"

I have just received and activated my phone with dum, dum, dum... AT&T and this phone has nothing but GPS issues while I have to admit everything else works fine and is definitely fast.

There is absolutely no way of it accurately doing a turn by turn Navigation with Google Maps.

Ive even resorted to doing a supposed fix and nothing if anything it made the major problem worse.

Same has been reported with the T-Mobile version of the phone.

I highly regret leaving T-Mobile now because the reception was a lot better with them as well.

No wonder tons of people bad mouth AT&T, LOL.

Proof below, stick to the other manufacturers guys... Samsung is testing the waters and these phones should have NEVER been released prior to having it 100% functional.

[G1 General] Ace42:
Why didnt you wait for g2?
[G1 General] rwbarnes67:
Hey OP!

Have you EVER tried the Vibrant or Captivate? I have the Vibrant and I have had no problems with the GPS. I use the turn by turn directions daily!

You need to know what you are talking about! Yes, there is a documented problem, but that doesn't mean that the GPS is unusable, and NO I haven't applied the GPS fix.
[G1 General] legend221:
Ive bought Samsung phone before and I haven't ran into any major issues like this.

The G2 would definitely be a better option.

Thinking Im going to jump to the Sony X10, I hear that they are going to have the CyanogenMod on it pretty soon.
[G1 General] legend221:
You're trying to come at me like everyone is going to have a working unit Barnes.

Just because YOU got lucky doesn't mean anyone else that buys it will.

There is already a "fix" in the works for units that have faulty GPS but whether it works or if its actually able to fix the issue is another story.

Read this and please don't post again if YOU don't know what you are talking about.
[G1 General] legend221:
Maybe you are also confused, bring up an address and press the option that says navigation.

See that big blue area around your position THAT is not true GPS and it is only guessing where you are from cell towers.

Like others have said it will not accurately tell you where you are, you can not trust the voice directions at all.

That is faulty and yes Samsung, AT&T, T-Mobile and any other service provider should not be selling these units until it is fixed.
[G1 General] rwbarnes67:
That Little blue arrow that tells me EXACTLY where I am on the map as I'm zooming down the freeway and accurately tells me every exit as I'm passing them? I know what I am talking about! And the turn by turn instructions work for me and it re-routes when I miss a street.

OK!!!! You all! You know EVERYTHING and I know NOTHING!

That is all! Sorry for putting in my 2 cents!

By the way, I've been on Android since the G1 in November of 2008. Rooted with the first Jesus Freke roms thru Haykuru and Dudes roms to Cyan and have been doing the same with my Vibrant.

But OK. You guys are THE EXPERTS.

And by the way, you guys never stated whether or not you own a Vibrant.
[G1 General] rwbarnes67:

I have nothing to say!
[G1 General] Ace42:
I only own G1 & Mytouch Slide, not interested in the Vibrant like my KB's.
[G1 General] steveruv:
buy whatever you want

ive gone thru so many phones since 09, from the g1(when it first came out), hd2, n900, x10 and finally the vibrant. the hd2, n900 and x10 in a matter of 4 months. didnt like windows mobile from being used to android. n900 wasnt what i expected it to be. loved the x10 but only running 1.6. i didnt root it because I eventually bought the vibrant.

only issues i had were facebook syncing and contacts being tripled and gps in searching for a location while in house, but GPS worked FINE when I was on the road. wish i had a car dock for it at the time but will eventually get one.

OP, if you knew of these reasons, such as lag or because of the gps not working properly, then why did you buy it in the first place? i dont think barnes was getting at you, but damn dude, someone's sensitive. no one told you to buy it despite some of the imperfections the phone has. its like people saying sony shouldnt have released the x10 with 1.6 but rather have froyo but they still buy it. and if your response is to root it to get 2.1 or 2.2, i dont think the avg. customer for phones would have any idea of what you are talking about.

you cant please everyone on here. alot of people on xda either want to be a mod or just bump stupid posts because they didnt get an answer within 3 hours.
[G1 General] legend221:
Returned my Samsung Captivate and is officially back to the HTC Dream/G1 until further notice.

Feeling better already, I can always get that phone when and if the GPS issue is worked out.

That was pretty much the only flaw it has at least on the phone I returned.
[G1 General] legend221:
In that respect I did mess up.

Was expecting the Captivate to rock my socks off but all it did was make me mad due to the GPS issue.

I didn't know of these problems until after my phone arrived.

Its stupid for Samsung to not get those fixes out asap as that is their flagship phone.

I heard the X10 is very close to getting Cyanogen on there.. definitely a major advantage there vs. the Samsung development that's going on
[G1 General] steveruv:
if cyanogen is working on the x10, then the x10 will have alot of potential.

did you switch back to tmobile since you're back to using the g1?

btw, how often were you using the gps on the road? give the vibrant a chance, im sure the kinks will be worked out.
[G1 General] legend221:
The X10 does seem like a better choice for now mainly in part to the CyanogenMod potential.

Im still on AT&T, Ive closed my account with T-Mobile.

I was using the gps on a regular basis thats why it had to be refunded as a replacement was more than likely to have the same issue.

Samsung has always had a bad track record with updating thier phones and I didnt want to be stuck waiting for an update that may take too long to be relevant.
[G1 General] tribalartgod:
I've just gotta jump in with my $.02 right quick here...

Not trying to piss anyone off, but damn you all cry too much! IT's A PHONE!

And on top of all that, it has an Operating System on it! So essentially, it's a COMPUTER! And what do computers have????? ISSUES!

So, quit *****ing. Flagship phone or not...It's going to have issues. It's a new device. Duh. haha

Basically, when it comes down to it, if a device were PERFECT in every standard, then EVERYONE would have one. And sense there is no such thing as PERFECT, good luck.
[G1 General] legend221:
Yeah its a phone that should work my G1, HTC Shadow all work with gps and they are old phones compared to the Samsung Galaxy S.

If you prefer not to hear my advisement to everyone about this phone, DONT CLICK ON THE THREAD!
[G1 General] steveruv:
legend, so you're using the g1 on at&t's network?

the captivate is using bing, correct? there's no google maps on there? maybe that was the problem.

i guess im fortunate to have my gps on point when i'm driving, but once i eventually root, etc, then maybe the gps will lock in almost my exact point, and not off 1 or 2 blocks.
[G1 General] legend221:
AT&T network, Yes I am.

The captivate is using Google Maps but has the option in using AT&T's version of it and they both were not working.

I tested how many GPS satellites it picked up through the LBSTestMode menu and it got me no where even if there were 1 or 7 available.

Once rooted it was the same story unfortunately even with all these workarounds on xda and other sites.
[G1 General] legend221:
