[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smabbage:
Rockplayer should play your .avi's as they are, however, if you want the stock player or any other player on the market to play them, consider encoding to h.264 or mpeg 4. I believe the maximum resolution to be 800 x 480. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. When transcoding video for my incredible I use Handbrake and select the iPood (<--Intentional ) Touch profile. I simply replace the default height and width with the height and width for the Incredible and let 'er rip. :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techie_babel:
I'm a fan of mVideoPlayer.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yatman60:
RockPlayer - well - rocks. I have divx encoded AVI files and they played like a charm.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igotsanevo4g:
I searched around for it but i cant find the kernel itself.

Has it been pulled yet or am i jumping the gun and should wait for the dev's?

Id like to just use the stock kernel with the true FPS fix on whatever i flash.

Any help appreciated, thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwertz:
I am almost positive it will not work with another rom until the source code comes out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
The stock kernel from 3.29 is in the development section on the virus Rom thread. I have had trouble flashing it tonight, but I think its because of corrupted downloads. Others have flashed it with no problem, and even got 1400+ quadrants. Virus Rom uses 3.28 base (he released one tonight with the 3.29 base, but before he released the ROM, others were flashing the kernel from it he posted). Check virus thread in development.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phatmanxxl:
Thanks I have been looking for it as well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igotsanevo4g:
Thanks. I'm gonna try it out.
[Epic 4G General] Zzim:
Is it possible with out having the $30 bs addon to the plan. I am sure this has bee asked but all I can seem to find is tether with root.

Thanks
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I use pdanet, but there are others too. Only reason I use it is that they have versions for all three oses I think. The other one that I'm thinking of but can't remember the name is still windows only. Yeah to buy the app is kinda expensive but for the price of one month of official service you can have an app that is one time pay
[Epic 4G General] Zzim:
U don't remember what the app was called?
[Epic 4G General] Zzim:
Errrr nm lol read that wrong
[Epic 4G General] spiicytuna:
Or you could go this route: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=756804 MAKE SURE you delete /system/MobileAP.apk and /system/MobileAP.odex (if you have this) before flashing that. Also you'll need clockwork recovery. I switched to this method as (a) it's the stock look, and (b) I have devices that cannot connected to ADHOC networks

If you do not mind your EPIC showing up as a ADHOC access point (which not all devices can connect to) then check out WiFitether: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

As others said PDA.net works as well.
[Epic 4G General] ragnarokx:
A company called "Tether" has an app out in open beta. Haven't tried it myself but at least for Blackberry Tether was better than PdaNet.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] playingeetar247:
With NAND seeming to be so close I wanted to start a poll as to where an HD2 NAND Development forum should be. My personal belief is that it should be under the parent "HTC Leo: HD2" forum, on it's own and not under this forum "HD2 Android Development". I think this way so that it keeps actual future "Flashed" versions seperate from the current dual-boot versions we use right now.

Thoughts?

P.s.

I'm a big boy, and expect to be flamed as I'm sort of a noob but please see this for what it is... a poll and suggestion to start a new forum in the near future.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
I think there should be a forum on its own in the future AFTER NAND is developed, if not we will have a lot of bricked newbies.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zkid2010:
So, before this thread gets deleted :D - let me say that this forum will most likely become the nand development forum once efforts arrive at that.

If you think about it, the dev team and testers working on that aspect of android for the hd2 most likely have a robust method of team communication already in place amongst themselves and would probably be more distracted by the forum signal to noise ratio, and really, who cares about running droid off an SD card when methods to run it from nand become/are available? :P
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] playingeetar247:
Completely agree, definitely AFTER.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] buzz killington:
There's no need to have a separate forum. This one is plenty big enough to handle all actual HD2 android development posts if all the posts that don't belong here (this poll for exemple) are posted in the general android forum.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
I agree that mostly everything with become NAND in the future, but I also think it will take awhile for developers to completely move to NAND. Some people are not going to use NAND at all, they prefer dual boot. So in my opinion there will be both floating around for awhile at least.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
Imagine this....we keep the forums of nand and dual boot together, new people hop on the forum that have NO idea what nand is and they flash it the wrong way. Then we have about a hundred of these posts a day asking why there phone wont turn on. Recipe for disaster.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zkid2010:
That's what the forum stickies are for :D

Also, it seems to me that even with all of the FAQ, stickies, and what have you here at xda, there STILL seems to be an abundance of "help i kilt my phone' posts pretty much in every sub forum in fact LOL

same forum - and gl finding any chefs wanting to make sd stuff when they can cook roms to flash right onto the phones internal storage - fast, clean....

Let me put it this way, if you've been around here long enough you know that most rom chefs have that competitive spirit...that is, each individual is always looking to be the fastest, most stable, most desired rom at xda.

Bud, if a nand flash lets me cook roms that are even a fraction faster and more stable than running off sd and dual boot, guess where I'm gonna spend my valuable cooking time?

jus sayin
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
Your definitely right about people always asking for help (No matter what) but ive heard quite a few people say that there sticking with dual boot. I guess we will have to see, im sure if NAND runs incredibly great it will change there minds.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] buzz killington:
Do you really think the developers will write a loader to write a haret version of android into flash?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lacusxharo:
if you don't know how to work ur microwave, you probably wanna dig up the manual and read it first before you use it.

same crap different pile. people who brick their device because they don't do their own research only have themselves to blame
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrazyEye:
NAND should have its own subforum

Completely agree.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deadey3:
totally agreee :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mokmok:
yes, dedicated subforum .....
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
Yes, yes, I agree. But unfortunately a lot of newbs don't do there research first, which is there own fault. But I think the idea of XDA is to make it as simple as possible. Only time will tell, I just think there will be never ending questions if nand and dual boot are mixed. But who knows.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hav0c:
Makes sense as soon as there is a NAND version. Not before IMO

So, shoot the noob :p
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] motoman234:
Well there is going to be the FIRST nand version for HD2 with in 24 hours :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HectiQ:
imho it should be best to divide the forums like this

this would make things so much easier in search :) maybe ppl. wouldn't make so much unnecessary threads :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jIMMy_11:
like this idea , totally agreement ;) ... but we'll see what is coming in future ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] KrewsialNL:
Can't agree more...
[Droid X General] cxdist:
Anyone else lacking the feature to go from vibrate to silent by pressing the volume down button? This is after the 2.2 update. Also, if anyone has a fix for removing the slide lockscreen before pattern lockscreen, that would be helpful.
[Droid X General] whezzel:
In 2.2 u have to option for either silent or vibrate. U can pick which one under settings>sound>vibrate
[Droid X General] cxdist:
yeah, i was hoping that there would be an option for having both. why would they remove that? what the christ.
[Droid X General] lblacklol:
I agree, I find the lack of it now very annoying. Sometimes I like to have my phone on vibrate (like at work), and sometimes I want it completely silent (like while I'm asleep). This seems like a pointless change.
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
Check out Volume Toggle (Free) on the market. I use a widget to change my sound profiles. When I go to bed I use Night Watch to restrict sounds. When you plug it in between certain hours it will auto start for you if you want.
[Droid X General] Ubermicro13:
Glad I found this I was afraid I messed something up lol
[Droid X General] x.v_:
This is pretty unbelievable to me, why they would do that. :P

Either way, you could try the link in my sig... my volume control app allows you to go into silent or vib. :P It's pretty nooby though.
[Droid X General] Corey@rabbit:
Hate it also, i use dazzle widget. Has a toggle for vibrate or silent.
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
curvefish has one too. nice toggle widget.
[Droid X General] sfreemanoh:
Thanks, I've been looking for something like these for the last couple days, I'll check out the various apps you guys mentioned.

Edit: Actually, I just realized that you get a similar widget with Weather and Toggle Widgets. You can toggle between On, Vibrate, and Silent, it's just what I was looking for.
[Droid X General] chrisanderin:
I have Beautiful Widgets and use the silent button from them.. works great... here is a screen shot for you.
[Droid X General] Barker412:
How did you get that setup?
[Droid X General] chrisanderin:
If you are referrancing my screen... its not my home screen but one of the others... the toggle switches at top are beautiful widgets silent, vibrate, wifi, and bluetooth all from beautiful widgets... the calender is the moto calender widget and the folders I created myself which hold Emulators and all my camera apps.. here is beautiful widgets small weather widget on a rainy day and a cloudy day... you can see the rain drops running down my screen. This only happens when I unlock or wake up my phone.. once you touch the screen it goes away.
[Droid X General] Barker412:
Man, that's wild!
[Droid X General] vudugan:
Why not hold down the top power button and select silent mode?
[Droid X General] chrisanderin:
What fun is that if you have cool widgets lol... just messing with ya
[Droid X General] vudugan:
Well actually, I stand corrected. Holding the top button will only set vibrate now. But, speaking of cool widgets, try widgetlocker! There is a slide that will completely silence or vibrate all from the lock screen. I know this isn't a true fix to what they screwed up but it is an all around better lock screen. $1.99 is well worth it.
[Droid X General] chrisanderin:
WOW what a goof ball... I have that and use it but never thought of it because its not one of my sliders lol
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] OmegaBlaze:

[Epic 4G Android Development] d94:
So i as i was sitting outside smoking a cig i got to thinking, how difficult would it be to implement some of the gestures i loved from the pre? the epic has the necessary hardware..it'd just be a matter of writing the code to acknowledge your gestures and implement them into actions

forward/back: theres 4 touch capacitive buttons on the bottom of the screen, if your finger is detected hitting one button then 1-3 more can a forward/back be implemented?

closing app/screen unlock/show notifications: if you move your finger from one of the 4 capacitative buttons in an upward motion onto the very bottom of the screen and up can closing app/screen unlock/show notifications be implemented?
[Epic 4G Android Development] 063_XOBX:
There is no support in android for the "gesture area" so you'd have to write code for all of that, integrate it into android and then create something functional out of it. In laymans terms it's not happening
[Epic 4G Android Development] DanDroidOS:
Be positive

So how do you know this guy isn't the baddest coder you've ever seen? Don't be so negative:)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rufflez2010:
Because we gots hardware and capacitive buttons that makes gestures useless... plus every app would need to be coded to respond to the gesture... so, yeah, its not happening.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jtmercutio:
buy a pre. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
Take a look at Gesture by Google in the app market. It works wonderful, but could it be implemented in the OS itself, not in just the app?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GuestX00515:
Running regular windows os I find that the speaker when playing music or call is significantly greater. While running android 2.2 darkstone build I find the speaker to be a bit.. pathetic? Are there any builds that fix this problem? or a potential fix? Also I want to know which build your using. Im a noob when it comes to android phones. Recently got into modding androids. So any help is appreciated.

[Vibrant Accessories] Dragoth12:
WoW....that site for real? Those prices are great...$60 bucks for a 16gb Class 6? That's crazy good deal.
[Vibrant Accessories] rUsTyRuSs:
I bought an 8gb class 6 at Target yesterday for 19.99.
[Vibrant Accessories] Dragoth12:
Yeah, I've seen some decent deals on 8 gig cards around. But there is a big jump in price when you go up to 16 gig, especially above class 2. So the prices on that site are great in that respect.
[Vibrant Accessories] tjhart85:
But, for most of the stuff you'd put on the card (music, pics, docs), a class 2 is more than sufficient. Spending a lot of extra money on a class 6 might not be needed (unless you swap out your music collection pretty frequently).

It's not like with the G1 where we were using the SD card as swap and speed was critical.
[Vibrant Accessories] Jaynrb:
I agree... with the on board memory as high as it is on the samvib, if you want to watch a movie just transfer it to your internal memory card and keep pics and music on the external. the movies im not watching at the moment i leave them on the ext sd card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] v-b-n:
I started this thread as a reference to everyone on how to change the system fonts for Android builds (both Sense and Cynogenmod based).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are methods that I know of :

1. Via Recovery Console which is not yet possible on present Android builds as we are running this off SD Cards and not NAND.

2. Via copying to specific directory on the SD Card and then booting Android. I found this the simplest and using this method.

3. While running Android, unmounting system, replacing font files and remounting /system. This method almost always gives me a error during remount of /system...dont know why

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have attached 2 fonts and how to convert your own is simple as illustrated below.

Android Font Folder :

(Your Android Folder on SD Card)\root\system\fonts

e.g. SDCARD\Android\root\system\fonts

Android System Font Names :

DroidSans.ttf

DroidSans-Bold.ttf

DroidSansFallback.ttf

DroidSansMono.ttf

DroidSerif-Bold.ttf

DroidSerif-BoldItalic.ttf

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

So all that is required is copy your favorite fonts to a temporary location on your PC and rename/make copies according to the above names (self- explanatory).

Copy these files to the font folder as illustrated above. Create the folder if it doesn't exist (like Sense builds).

Boot away Android !!

PS : I have tested both Calibri and Nokia font on the Desire HD build and it looks sweet :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] trilogy069:

is there any way you can add Century Gothic font bro?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] v-b-n:

PS : The fontbase is larger than other fonts so may not look good on 240 dpi (Sense dpi)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] @itsboiboi:
thanks man that was quick! appreciate it bro
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brunswick000:
Not sure if it will work on these builds given that they are booting from WinMo but it would be worth a try. Download Typefresh, and Andexplorer from market. Open type fresh, grant superuser permission, make backup of current fonts, then click on font that you want to change from list. Andexplorer will open, navigate to folder that you have placed new fonts in and check appropriate font. Click apply fonts, reboot when prompted (this is where there could be a problem i think) and once rebooted your new fonts are installed. Works like a charm on Android phones ive had in past, including this current phone.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kwill:
It does work as I tried it after reading another thread about fonts in Android here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=717548 and here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=797533. My question is, in one of those threads and mentions only needing to change the DroidSans-Bold.ttf and DroidSans.ttf. But, VBN says to change all listed in the first post. I guess my question is which one ensures all fonts are changed??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] v-b-n:
From what I have gathered till now....DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf are the most used but if others are not changed you may get artifacts in some part of dialogs, etc...

I am not 100% sure but those fonts are definitely there in stock ROMs
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kwill:
Ok, that's kind of what I was figuring. I mean, they wouldn't just be there for nothing.:D Not to mention, if you use Type Fresh to change fonts, it gives you the option to change the other font names you mentioned. But, you're not forced to. Actually, I loaded a font and it I guess Android didn't like it. So, it wouldn't finish booting. So, I had to copy one of your fonts into system...to get it to boot again. Just a tip for those that one to try Type Fresh and other fonts found around the forum.
