[HD2 General] ForgetfulGuru:
Pocket Player

It really does kick the lamma's ass. :)

great sound

lots of controls

including rewind and seek/resume

DSP effects surround sound is just the biscuit.

Video Playback is a software job but then again so are most.

Podcast down load straight from the menu...

The list goes on, for me Music and Audio Pocket Player. Video built in Windows Media Player, then you get the hardware acceleration you paid top money for.
[HD2 General] ddgarcia05:
does pocket player have built in shoutcast?
[HD2 General] ForgetfulGuru:
Shoutcast and MORE

YES :D

Here is a link to their site. You can get a full feature list.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drgoldie:
I've been able to flash custom ROMs onto my HD2 without problems for a long time.

However since recently when I flash a ROM (e.g. radio) it goes into a constant reboot mode:

- Does not turn on without power cable anymore

- When I plug in power, it vibrates and the white screen comes up

- After a few seconds it goes black then comes the white screen again

- Goes on forever...

I was able to get the it to run again by first doing Task29, then installing the latest original ROM (1.66.405.2). However, as soon as I install another ROM (e.g. RADIO_2.07.50.27_2) I get into the endless reboot again.

Update: After another try to get a different ROM onto the device, I'm not even able to flash anything working (endless reboot).

Please help!

bent battery pins.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drgoldie:
Thanks a lot that actually seemed to be it.

I noticed a pin was bent when I finished my flashing crusade but I didn't connect it to the issues I noticed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] relic:
i have the same problem today, but no bent pin. I cant even charge it, when plug into charger it charges for 5 seconds then boots up to HTC logo white screen without any info for 10 sec then reboots itself forever, I cant even charge it at the moment because once it boots up it goes to HTC logo screen and reboots the whole time rendenring the battery unchargeable. I assume the battery is faulty eventhough the phone is brand new.

any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marvlesz:
try this, it might work ;) .

Remove battery for 10 minutes, plug in charger and wait 5 minutes, hold power for 10 seconds then release, insert battery normally, should charge fine now :)

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmrmrmr:
Hi,

I have the app "superuser permissions" on my rooted Dell Streak.

Some apps request superuser permission and when they request, I can add them to the allowed apps list.

But some apps do not request permission.

How can I add superuser permission to those apps ?

For example, there is a web server named PAW. I want to run it on port 80 which requires root.

However, I can't add that to the list...

Also, some file managers do not request permission. How can I make them root ?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dogmann:
Hi mrmrmrmr

Well if an app doesn't request superuser permissions obviously it means it doesn't have that functionality in it so you can't just add it to it just by granting it permission it just doesn't work like that.

Again with File Managers they need to be written to need Root access and be granted permission you can't just grant them access as again thats just not how it works take Astro a great file manager but it doesn't have root access because it's not designed to do that. If you want a File manger with Root access that will on first use request superuser permission you need to look at Root Explorer that will do what you want as thats what it has been built to do.

But i would advise exercising extreme caution when doing anything with Root access as changing or deleting something without understanding exactly what you are doing can have seriously bad consequences. Seeing as you have asked these two questions i would really question if you should go messing around in Root unless you are really sure you know what you are doing or able or prepared to fix any mistakes you may make.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmrmrmr:
thank you for the clarifying post and the warnings.

well, actually being a user of Linux based OSs for more than 15 years, I know what "root" user is and what it can do.

I just didn't know how Android applications gain root access. (Thought they would all use it if somehow they were granted)

Now, for the filemanager , I'll install root explorer as you recommend.

But for the PAW webserver:

This application is listening on port 8080 by default.

For listeningon port 80 , it says it needs root access on the documentation.

But I couldn't find how to give root access.

Any idea ?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dogmann:
@mrmrmrmr

Well it sounds like you have a far better and greater knowledge and understanding then i do as prior to Android i have had no exposure to a Linux based OS. Although i believe Android is slightly different but sorry but i have no idea about the Web sever stuff as thats just not my thing at all and wouldn't know where to even start with it.

Marc
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmrmrmr:
thank you Dogmann.

anyone else whou could give an idea ?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olemartinorg:
I tried the PAW webserver, and it didn't work for me either when i set it to port 80 - even though I have root access. I would suggest sending the developer an email, because that functionality is obviously broken.

An alternative would be to get iptables working (it's not installed on my device!) and run:

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING --dport 8080 -m

state --state NEW -p tcp --sync -j DNAT --to

127.0.0.1:80

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
ROM Manager doesn't currently work on the Streak. This might explain it not asking for permissions.

[General Topics] Azure100:
I have been using Samsung Omnia i900 for last one year guys. Now i intend to get a new phone but there seem to be alot of options out there and it made me confuse. Everyone has an edge over the other in some regard.

I almost went to get an HD2 , My reason being that it can run BOTH OS, WinMo 6.5 and Thanks to dev at xda it can also run Android almost as well. And i am a freak in tryin all the new stuff related to diff OS, so that gives me an edge for HD2, however its touch screen although capacitative wasnt as impressive as iphone 3gs.

And i m not sure how good android is, would the phone still be upgraded.

Please vote for what you think is going to be overall a better choice to go for now with regards to,

OS

Apps

Hardware

Future Development

[General Topics] tKoHaXoR:
I would go with the iPhone 4 simply because front facing camera, hd recording, super amoled screen, great gaming device, sleek new design, and the best new "feature" added.. THE DEATH GRIP! :D
[General Topics] AndroHero:
the iphone 4 dosent have a super amoled screen, it has a ips lcd screen
[General Topics] !PANDA:
or what they call it "Retina display" :D

mate go for the Desire! amazing device!!
[General Topics] AndroHero:
i agree with ipanda, the hd2 is good but its excessively large screen mixed with the type of lcd it has means the colours are all washed out, the galaxy s has good multi touch and games but the gps is crap, the iphone cant get a signal and the nexus one is just a desire without the optical trackpad and less ram lol
[General Topics] Azure100:
umm Nexus One is also abit cheaper i guess.... Optical trackpad doesnt really matter i guess... but currently its official software doesnt support Multi-TOuch which Sux.

Galaxy doesnt have a Camera FLASH... HOW the hell can Samsung miss that ... LOL

I am tilted for Desire.. But tell me one thing. Is the Android stuff really cutomizable? How about apps like superb 3d games in iphone.. Does android market has similar stuff?

And the MAIN Qs for me...... Whats the future for Desire? I mean new ROMs and New Android OS v3.0 or so will be available for desire or atleast custom roms maybe ?

I heard Android 3.0 is comin after xmas... i really want a device which can be updated with time :P
[General Topics] Dany0:
Eh... uh.... HTC Desire HD
[General Topics] numaverick:
hey...

and HTC EVO 4G???

my vote is for HD2.. :)
[General Topics] Dany0:
I see I will have to raise my voice a little, HTC DESIRE HD IS GOING TO BE ANNOUNCED 15TH SEPTEMBER, IT WILL HAVE 4X THE POWER OF HTC DESIRE AND 8MPX CAM WITH DUAL LED FLASH. ALSO IT WILL HAVE AN AMAZING 4.3 INCH SCREEN AND ANDROID 2.2

IT WILL BE MOST PROBABLY CHEAPER AND WILL HAVE BETTER BATTERY LIFE. AND AT LAST, HDMI AND KICKSTAND.

THANK YOU
[General Topics] BenF1:

[General Topics] Azure100:
Wow thats cool... I can wait a month or so anyhow... Lets just hope its price doesnt go to peaks :S

Can anyone still answer my Qs that ... Will Desire also receive future updates from Android like 3.0 Gingerbread or so?

Coz i want a phone i can update/modify ... So that excludes iphone frm ma list :P

http://www.androidcentral.com/sprint-epic-4g-review

Hopefully my link worked. If carriers are not a problem, then I think Sprint's Epic 4g is the best phone out right now. From what I have read there is no GPS problem. It also has a larger slide out QWERTY than Droid 2,it has camara flash, and 4g - if your in covrerage area. Lag problems are also gone. There is the ability to cut off touchwiz in favor of android launcher as well. On my Captivate, the camara takes great photos without flash so camara quality is superb. Plus it has about the most capable CPU you can find coupled with the best gpu available. I bought the iphone4 on day 1 and returned it on Captivates release day and have not regretted it. And yes, its very customizable. Just pick a carrier with options because you can always trade it out within 30 days.
[General Topics] Fr4gg0r:
nope.

Android supports multitouch since 2.0, but the touchscreen sensor on nexus one is too bad to report multitouch.

Completely bull****.
[General Topics] xHausx:
No Evo 4G option? Now that the bugs have been worked out it's tits.

yeah my last phone was a vogue so I don't have much to compare it to, but there are already people saying they took back their epics after having AMOLED burn-in issues, bad buttons, no gps, etc.
[General Topics] DangerPanda:
Out of those phones, I think the HD2 has the best value considering its around $100 cheaper than the other ones, but with similar hardware specs. However, I've never owned any of those phones, so I could very well be wrong.

On a side note, if you are really into putting on different OS's and would like a change, you could take a look at the n900 (slower processor but could be overclocked) or even upcoming Nokia N9 (Though it seems like Nokia phones don't receive much love in this forum) . They're going to have the Meego OS, and developers have also ported Android 2.2 to run on the N900 aswell.
[General Topics] Azure100:
Seems like competetion here is between HD2 and Galaxy S, But there is a price difference of 200$ between these two phones, WHich is kinda alot :P

Extra 200$ for AMOLED 16 M screen, i guess thats the only hardware part where Galaxy/Desire are better than HD2. A small diff in RAM too, but otherwise all hardware specs are similar.
[General Topics] bharris25:
HD2 probably gets bad battery life with android and you could run into some weird bugs, they've done a great job with android, its what prolonged my touch diamonds life. Win mobile is dead, haven't looked back since I got my Evo. Best phone I've ever had, no regrets but there's always something new coming out.
[General Topics] djingonthenet:
HD2. Got 4 microsd cards, 3 running different builds of android the other running win mo. Depending on my mood or need for a particualr app (sat nav/games etc..) I just boot into whatever suits, HTC & Microsoft pretty much ditched this phone after the US launch yet XDA have given it a fresh start and pushed it back to the top of the smartphone list IMO. If you like playing about with your phone then there is no other option, the others are just phones in comparison :)
[General Topics] Azure100:
I have been usin WinMo devices for last 2 years or so, but i guess WinMo is kinda dead end now. Even if i get HD2, i will like to use Android on it for a change, So why not just get an Android set with No bugs :P

Well i am still compiling up my money... got 400$ by now :P That shud suffice for HD2, but i guess i gotta wait and save some more for Galaxy or Desire.

Why are people voting Galaxy and Not Desire ? I mean its almost the same hardware.... and Desire has a bigger community here i guess.... Htc phones usualy get new updates while i m not sure samsung will keep up the updates for their phones :S

The Epic doesn't have it either mate.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] st3chn0:
I had it once go into landscape mode using samset firmware 1.9. This some how happened after a program had crashed. So I guess some dev looks into this properly landscape mode of touch wiz on stock firmware or even modified ones it maybe possible
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
U shud check its manifest and see wht rotation is dependant upon (i.e user, sensor ....etc)

And change it accordingly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zeco:
Yeah! This has happened to me, and in fact I can replicate it. Though sometimes the landscape mode dies after a while, and other times it just continues on and on until I shut the device off.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chrism.brunner:
The easiest way is to buy the donate version of titanium backup. It has a batch process to move all user installed apps to SD card, and back if you want. Have to be rooted I'm pretty sure. Otherwise go to settings, applications, manage applications, and you can move them one by one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] alex_canada:
My suggestion is to go to settings, applications, manage applications and you can select some that are not used very frequently so that will not have an impact on the performance of your phone.

I'm running out of ideas on how to fix this bug...

When i try to Add a Google Account it gives me this error message.

"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"

The error is misleading as it has nothing to do with connections, i tried on 3G/H and WiFi, and simply because the phone sync just fine all the other google accounts in the phone, and can download/upload stuff without any connection error, Android Market and Apps Brain works fine as well.

before it was working fine i was able to add like 5+ accounts in there, i were able to delete and re-add accounts, but the last few days it has been unable to do that, due that error message.

but if i add the same account that worked, or those that failed on another SGS factory reset, then it works fine.

problem is.... i don't really want to re-install my 200+ apps in the phone....

I already tried wipe-ing the caches, it didn't help.
