[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazultra2000:
I think this is an issue with playback of videos on the phone, not on the computer...

If the file plays back fine on the computer, then it's not gonna be a codec problem (from the computer's side anyway).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyleuk:
Having this problem too. Is someone going to contact HTC?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzymc:
I have very similar results. Using Windows 7's Media Player Streamer I can browse all my videos , music and photos , but none of these can be played (the server works ok,'coz I still can play videos and other media from other PC). I've some better results with XBMC's media stream (UPNP server) the photos works fine, but still can't play other media.

I can't manage to open the DHD's video, audio or images using DLNA connection.

At the beginning I think that the problem is with codecs, but since this media is opened with no problem once it copied on the phone I'm sure there is a problem with the player playing content over UPNP connection.

I had that kind of issues with an old ubuntu install, but all was fixed when installed VLC Player, so I hope someone can make a good port of VLC to android.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazultra2000:
I've managed to playback mp3s and looked at pictures stored on my computer via my phone, so that part is OK, but videos are a no-go, which is a shame.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l1nuxfre4k:
Very simple answer to this people.

The Desire HD and Z does not support "Play To" Receiver

Because of this AVI wont work.

Just check DLNA's website.

Compare it to bluetooth,

Both are very sensitive to compatibility and such

Avi seems not to work, but I've managed to stream to my phone .mp4 files.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawrence750:
some avi files have actually started playing. most stop within a few seconds though.. if it can do this, why not the whole video?

Also i did check DLNAs website, and they've actually certified the Desire HD as a M-DMP device. I know they've only tested it with images (according to the certificate) however the description of a M-DMP device is:

These wireless devices find and play content on a digital media server (DMS) or mobile digital media server (M-DMS).

Examples: mobile phones and mobile media tablets designed for viewing multimedia content.

So it must be a HTC bug? (based on the fact that it DOES play the start of some files and that it is M-DMP certified..)

EDIT: well it must be a codec thing.. rockplayer plays all these files fine.. even locally the 'Videos/gallery' app can't play them all. Maybe HTC should use ffmpeg like rockplayer.. then it might just work :)

Me too, but if only there was a way of making vplayer (since that plays everything so far) the default player when a video is clicked on from the connected media view
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmloo:
Same problem here.

1. Connected Home on Samsung Omnia 2(Win6.1/6.5) works

2. Doest work on Samsumg Galaxy Tab (froyo 2.2)

3. Doesnt work on Desire HD (pic, music, video)

So can I assume its something to do with Android?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gascomm:
same problems here with the HTC Media Link. far too many video files play ok on my htc desire from win7 pc using Skifta.

i've been attempting to find successful filetype/bitrate settings through freemake video converter (which allows hard-coding of subtitles) with little success when pushing to the media link.

Q. does anyone know a guaranteed filetype, bitrate, size which works through media link?

Q. are there any XDA devs working on a rom to fix this thing? excellent hardware in need of a little homebrew tweak if ever there was

Here are a bunch I made this morning... These are all clickable thumbnails. I'll probably make quite a few more as this tends to be a hobby of mine. I've been making Kindle screen savers for more than a year, and I have more than 3000 posted to my Photobucket account. Making wallpaper for a color device is quite nice for a change. ;)

Try this for random wallpapers... you'll have to click it to change the wallpaper, but that's it. See the instructions on the appbrain page for which folder to use if you're going to use this app.

That's it in a nutshell! ;)

Try to find images larger than 640x480 to start with. Try not to "stretch" the image one way or the other, crop it instead. Ummm, that's about it. :)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naz78:
My father in law in visiting has an X10i (on 1.6) that he purchased from the Middle East. I've been trying to update through SEUS and no luck; it keeps saying that I have the latest software.

Questions:

1. Is the 2.1 update available for all X10i? or not yet all?

2. How can I check the phones region?

3. Should I update using one of the decrypted roms in the forum? if yes then can someone who's done recommend one please?

Thank you so much in advance.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJ_QaT:
first on the lock screen press ( Menu, Back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back )

then service info>Software info>

then you can see which software you got in your phone, if it says World Generic then it means that you should get the update.

My X10i is from the Middle East and my region was world generic, so I managed to get the update.

Tip: sometimes the SEUS says that you have the latest software (1.6) but when clicking on re-install it will install the device to 2.1 update
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naz78:
Thanks for the response. I did the the menu back thing, and it shows that my software is "Generic" not "world generic". I did a search for update on SEUS and SE PC Companion and still nothing, then I did a repair and it downloaded 1.6 again.

How can I update to 2.1?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TommyHD2:
Have had Android working and booting fine for the week, battery went flat last night , now android wont boot, goes to the grnn HTC icon n then stops, I have waited half an hour still with nothing, as ive said its not the first time its been booted. I have searched on here but they all seem to be new installs that are having problems. Any idea ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hidnface:
I am getting same issue. Android was very nice, fast boot and so on. But since tomorrow, when booting to Android it stays on startup screen with green htc. :eek:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jmmmmm:
Sounds like possible data corruption if system did not shutoff gracefully. Not a good idea to let low battery shut off system... you should shut it off manually. I have had this happen on WM where the phone get into a weird state and data get corrupted.

I would backup the data.img file, let Android create a new one to see if it boots properly. Then restore the original data.img file and see if it boots with that one.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jmmmmm:
Which build are you using?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fluidz:
Same Here!

Battery went flat, tried booting android a few times but didnt succeed. So rebooted the phone to find..

The android boot screen repeats itself. Over and over. Was fine yesterday.

Going to try backing up the data.img and restoring it after it rebuilds as mentioned above.

UPDATE :

After backing up the data.img file, and letting it rebuild, one hour later, still not booted.. So restarted the phone, put the old data.img back, started up haret.exe, and its now stuck on the Green HTC logo.. and isnt moving.. at all.

This isnt my first boot.. usually it boots within a couple of minutes.

Android not rebooting after flat battery

Hi TommyHD2,

I have just had the same problem, actually a couple of times. What I did was to delete all the new entries that had been made on my micro SD card and only leaving the original 8 files that are in the FroyoStone 3.2.7z Android folder and of course I did not delete the media folder that is also included in the build. Well twice now I have done this with a successful reboot of Android whilst not losing any of the settings that I had made ie. Wallpaper, shortcuts etc even apps (unless they are on the card).....Obviously this will now be a case of trial and error to establish which of the deleted files it is that cause a conflict in the reboot. I am also new to this but reading this someone may be able to idntify the problem easily. Other than that it runs superb....EVERYTHING works....well battery drain but I think that is even solved now thanks to XDA.....I will let you know in about four hours

Good luck:)

HI Hidnface,

I don't know what sort of smile that is ....sarcastic or friendly but thanks all the same. Bit dumb of me but then I am still learning.

By the way I found that when you boot into Anroid you are left with a folder calle Android_Secure....I dont know what thois does but this is the one I delete to enable successful reboot.

Thanks mate.:p

Hello all,

I have been searching the forum but could not find an answer to my question. I have installed a TightVNC server on my dekstop in order to remotly control it by my HTC desire. It works great with the android VNC app.

But the thing is, i only want to send a command line to my PC without using the whole app. I'm designing my own app where i want to send a command lines to my computer. It's just a simple app with a few buttons in order to switch my lights on and off in my room. I have running it on my PC right now with winlirc, which can be controlled by entering a command line.

Is there anyone who can provide me with the Code that connects to the server and can send a command line? If it is not possible to send a command line, then maybe just a way to send a keystroke so i can use autohotkey to act upon it.

Thanks

Hello everybody,

I just bought my Flipout ;) thought the design was kind of funny !

I am quite happy about it except the screen resolution (but I knew it before the purchase)

I need your help :

after a full charge I run out of battery after two hours of use (not standby), could you eventually help identify what is wrong ? is it because of the apps running in background or because the battery capacity is bad ? (or both ;))

The apps I am running: nimbuz, gtalk, several mail accounts, that is more or less it.

Another point, I have noticed that on heavy loads the Flipout becomes an oven, have you experienced the same ?

Many thanks for your help,
