Another option, but not technically "Streaming" is to use CifsManager.

You can mount network shares, and Android will see them like they are on the phone.

I can't remember exactly how i did it, but it is fairly easy.

From memory, after you have configured the network share and a mount point in CifsManager, you can open the file using the Cifs File explorer, and then play it with a program such as vPlayer or Rockplayer

You will need to have Root to do this.

let me know if you need a hand with this.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Elemetrix:
Just got VLC Stream to work.

Seems to work quite nicely once you've fiddled with the settings :-D

Will test out a long video now.

That CifsManager sounds interesting too.
[Desire Themes and Apps] boojay:
VLCSC is a great program. I have it working within my home network and streaming via VPN over 3G, but am unable to stream via VPN over wifi, that is, I can't stream from my home network to another network (say, my work network). Has anyone successfully achieved this?

How can I save my apps when I change ROM? I don't mind downloading the apps again but how to keep the settings and game saves there.

I could not find that info.

titanium backup
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] johnnyvb78:
i use root explorer, there i can go to /data/app there are the downloaded apps from the market. i copy them with this progam to my own app folder to save them. when i want to use a new android rom i put my apps in the android apps folder and they will be instaled at first boot.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pr0x2:
thanks for the reply's :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] asctony:
I backup using Titanium, however, I see the option Backup/Restore, but I don't see the option to Restore? What do you do to Restore? Maybe I am just missing the option when I look at 'MORE'. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Tab General] slimdizzy:
Here is what I have found to be the easiest streaming solution, no root or special app on your tab is needed. Basically it all boils down to format and bandwidth on your connection. Here is what I have found that works the best.

Server:

Windows 7 PC with media streaming turned on and password protected sharing turned off. Put all the videos into C:\Users\Public\Videos.

Formats:

AVI and MP4 work best. Most any divx/xvid file you have should play on your tab without issue. MP4 works nicely as well. You can use H264 video amd AAC 2 channel audio as surround is not needed. MKVs do work but depending on your wifi setup, you may encounter streaming problems due to the amount of bandwidth coming over the air to your tab.

Software:

On the server side just the builtin windows streaming is good. All your avi and mp4 files should show up on your device without issue. If they dont, open media player and let your library populate. On your tab just use the allshare app.

Known Issues:

- if you have a lot of videos, initial allshare discovery will take a bit

- scrubbing isnt instant but it works

Other Info:

Here is one more thing that I have found. No matter what the format, once you start hitting the 3-4 mb/s area that when stuttering starts. Also take into account that the screen is only 1024*600 so why even bother with the 1080p video you have, its simply overkill. Also, for some reason videos are listed five times when using my windows home server unlike once when using my win seven pc hence the recomendation of using a pc above.

Happy streaming!
[Focus Accessories] iamjonso:
Is there any store that sells third party battery covers for the Samsun Focus? Something that maintains the same shape/contours but made of a different more durable and less fingerprint-magnet material. How hard can it be to create a mold of the current battery cover? Wouldn’t it also be nice to have a battery cover without the “Samsung” insignia on the back too? It’s already plastered on the front of the phone, why do I need the same logo on the back too?
[Focus Accessories] olurumsana02:
This is exactly what i'm looking for, anyone find anything?
[Focus Accessories] vermelo:
It would be nice to find a white cover. Then I could have a "White Samsung Focus". ;)
[Focus Accessories] keisuke_z:
Hmm... I switched to the Focus from an Xperia, and one thing I *really* liked about the Xperia was the soft-touch rubber back.

Anybody think about plasti-dip spraying the battery cover of the Focus to get this same effect?

[Omnia 7 General] ascottuk:
just recieved my new handset, excellent bit of kist, very impressed

just connected to the pc via zune to see only 5.9gb is available as useable space? is this the norm?

i expected about 7 after the operating system but not under 6
[Omnia 7 General] at45:
I think mine started with 6.8-ish free. It's a T-Mobile one.
[Omnia 7 General] Chimp Safari:
That's because it automatically has 5% reserved for phone content. Emails, photos, office docs, apps you want to download on the go etc. You can increase of decrease this amount in the zune settings. It's not really needed as you don't need any reserved space to do any of the above but it just acts like a buffer.
[Omnia 7 General] ascottuk:
well i just spent the whole weekend converting all my MP3's from 256, to 128 bit rate, and i was suprised just how much space that has saved, i can live with the difference in audio quality,

one thing i will never advise is if you have over 400 albums to do this, its pain staking!

lol, anyway im happy with the phone, 600 songs on it and still 3gb ish left over!
[Omnia 7 General] m8tix:
Yeah, mine was about the same available space. It's more than enough for me :)
[Omnia 7 General] mwako:
Yeah, just drop it down to 0% reserved and it still gives it around 600mb for all the apps/emails/pics ect, and leaves 6.5+GB for whatever else. I Sync daily whenever i'm charging and it takes them off the phone and syncs to online storage/skydrive ect so i can view pictures wherever in a browser. *love that feature*
[Omnia 7 General] Dazzla:
I had a similar problem. I wiped and set it to 0% and it reserved 800MB. It's still sat at 0% but now it has reserved 1.4GB!

It's pretty bad that I have no way of reducing the reserved space. I can't set it less than 0%...
[Omnia 7 General] mwako:
That is strange. Guessing you don't have over a GB of e-mails or pics or apps :P as apps/e-mail/pics ignore the reserved space i thought if needed and gos over the reserved space anyway.
[Omnia 7 General] gc48067:
Messing around with my phone today, seems to be Games that are using the reserved space, really annoying that they label it so oddly.

Based my findings on not being able to copy media to the phone as I was out of space, resetting everything I could find and no change but then eventually deinstalled some of my games and low and behold suddenly more storage was available.

Think I cocked up getting an 8Gb Omnia, thought it was 16Gb when I bought it but was my mistake so not much I can do.

Ho hum....

Think this OS has a real future but really depends on how MS approach the next update. If they lock it down and ignore feedback it ain't going anywhere, if they open it up a bit and listen to feedback they could get the stability that is missing from Android and add some real kick ass performance and functionality. MS - are you listening.....?
[Omnia 7 General] mwako:
WP7 is new, and as i have said before i think cost is the issue, this phone has SAMOLED, 1ghz, *buckets of ram*, these are amazing devices you shouldn't mix up quaility with quantity.... this phone of the WP7 range is the only Nand style storage and is the way forward as it's getting large enough in a small enough space, but it's expencive for these devices *HTC took the cheap route as they know what "most" people want, even i love htc, but nand does it for me, 16 sec game load times, vs 40+ htc on SD storage*. Give it a while and cost will come down and storage will go up, This first wave of phones are built around the Zune function mainly for content. *delete, redownload. whay* no having to keep songs anymore on the device. 3G downloads, 2 min, got it again :D *fasttttt ziiiiiiip woooooolop*

Someone pose as Stephen Fry on the board and they will listen :P

But MS will i think listen this time as even him above said himself. "If MS listen they will go far this time around..."

So there is allot! of eyes on this one... and MS future image is at stake now i think so this isn't going to be a light battle from here out, There is LOTS of choices now, and between the heads of these corps a good few years of creative "fun" change is on the cards i'm guessing :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vapor0312:
I tried installing the OTA update on my phone, but it didn't take. It didn't even reboot. The phone is rooted, but I had everything else stock. The problem is that in order for me to manually install it on my phone, i have to flash a custom recovery. The stock won't help me much cause I get the blank screen. So if I flash a custom recovery, and then install the update manually, won't it unroot my phone which would keep me from flashing back to the stock recovery? Anyone know how I can get around this? Seems like a vicious circle to me. Maybe I am just not understanding it.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soopafly Incredible:
That depends....I will assume you have S-off with unrevoked, correct?

If you have that you should always be able to re-flash the recovery.

There are a couple different ways I was able to make it work.

1) You can reflash the stock recovery to your phone, then apply the update. The reason it stalls on reboot is that it's looking for the stock recovery.

2) Or you can go to androidcentral and download the zip file linked in the thread:

http://forum.androidcentral.com/droid-incredible/43198-nov-8-2010-maintenance-update.html

rename the file to update.zip/put it on your sdcard/boot into recovery.

That's the method I used, and it ran through the update process without a flaw.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vapor0312:
yeah, s-off with unrevoked. Not unrevoked forever though.

I had the stock recovery on the phone at the time i tried installing the OTA.

If I flash the stock recovery to my phone, I can't use it to flash anything because i get the black screen with the white lines down the side. Something to do with the new screens and the drivers. Anyway, only a custom recovery works on my phone.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soopafly Incredible:
I usually fall back on the 2.2 RUU when I get stuck...that will clear all data off of your phone, as well as fixing bootloader and recovery.

I think there's a thread buried here somewhere with the file hosted in case you don't have it saved.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vapor0312:
After you ran your update manually, were you able to re-flash a custom recovery?

I am running defrost6.0e and I love it but I cant get H Data signal just 3g or g.

I have tried 3 different radios but none seem to make any difference.

32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14

32.48.00.32U_5.10.05.30

32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

currently running 32.44.00.32U_5_09.05.30_2 Origional Orange Radio

I can get H OK when using a Sense Rom though

Any 1 else have any ideas or are on Orange can tell me what raido they are running.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobandroid:
it is most probably a ROM side issue, nothing to do with radios, or maybe a minor relevance only

hey guys. now that i've learned how to mod apps to match my liking, i wanted to mod the one app i use the most.

i can't seem to find where Mixzing's installation folder is? i've searched /data/app, /data/app-private, /system/app, /sdcard/data, /sdcard/Android...where do the .apks for these apps that aren't under /data/app go???

and which apk should i be editing, the basic .apk or the upgrade .apk? (i assume basic).

thanks:D

I use Apps 2 SD to move it to the SD card....so where in there?
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
I guess /sdcard/app or something along those lines.
[Android Themes] Max_Pain:
just did that. uninstalled. reinstalled. went back to /data/app and it's not there. organized it by date and it's not there.

i have Move2SD enabler, so it's installing apps directly on the SD card. that's why I asked in the OP where else besides /data/app apps get installed.

i can use the .apk you posted, but when they update the app in the future i'll be in the same position. i need to find my own .apk:eek:
[Android Themes] Max_Pain:
couldn't find where it was being stored in the /sdcard, so i just moved it back to the phone's memory and then got the .apk from /data/app.

here's my first skinning attempt. pretty much what i was going for. matches my black windows 7 look:D
[Android Themes] Max_Pain:
guys i'm having an ISSUE...anyone know what's going on?

please read...

tried the regular method using .apk manager. if i unzip/edit/zip/sign and try to install, i get "Application not installed"...if i do unzip/edit/zip as system app (no signature) and try to install, same message. if i do unzip/edit/zip as regular app but dont sign it, same message. if i edit the file with 7Zip and try to install, also get the same message...

if i unzip/edit/zip/sign and try to copy/paste over the existing .apk in /data/app i get force closes when i try to open the app.

now, if i edit the .apk with 7-zip and i copy it over the existing .com.mixzing.basic-1.apk in /data/app then it works! the widgets work, the app works. all is well....until i reboot the phone. then i come back and the app wont launch, as if it wasn't there.

i go to /data/app/ the .apk is there, but it wont launch. if i try to install it from there, it also gives me "Application not installed"...interestingly enough, when i try to install it, it tells me it would overwrite an existing application. yet when i go to the Market, it shows as Mixzing NOT being installed and lets me install a new copy just fine.

if i install again from the market, and copy/paste my copy over it in /data/app, it works again...until I reboot...and the cycle repeats.

what am i doing wrong here?:(
[Hero CDMA General] Rickinfl:
Hi,

I was a steady user of Windows Mobile phones. Setup and flashing ROMS for YEARS I lived on XDA Forums!. NOW I'm on Metro PCS and I have a HTC Hero and I'm sick and tired of running this to someone and having it fixed and them Charge me. I want to know or be pointed to the information that I can use to do this. DO NOT point me to a website or person that will charge me to do it. I WANT TO DO THIS MYSELF!

It seems nobody will tell you anything! Someone has to know what it takes or point me in the right direction so I can learn this. I know how to root it and Flash the ROM that is easy! What I want to know is:

How do you setup the phones settings to work with Metro PCS? What is required to program it for Metro PCS? Is it a file? software? What I'm asking is if I have a Hero flashed with say Damagecontrol v1.0 what are the steps at that Point to set it up on Metro PCS from there?

And YES I've search Google and every site with every combination or keywords for some kind of information to do this. Even the XDA site and I get Nothing.

Thanks,

Rick

[Hero CDMA General] Rickinfl:
I just want to know how to do my phone. I want to know how to do it from scratch. I have a HTC Hero NOT flashed to Metro. I know I need Damagecontrol v1.0, BUT how do you set it up for Metro.

I have another HTC Hero flashed and it needs to be reflashed (Acts weird now) , BUT I'm not going to pay someone to do it again. If they can do... So can I. I just need to find out how too.

I also want to know If I can only use Damagecontrol v1.0 / 2.1. Or can I use something higher than 2.1 on the Hero flashed to Metro?

I'm just asking for help or even point me to a site with the step by step process. All these people do this on CL so I know it's out there.

[Hero CDMA General] BuTTcHiPs:
I don't think you should have to get a new number or anything like that.

I'm not completely certain, but I think your problem lies in one of the following settings:

HDR AN AUTH User ID/Password

PPP User ID/Password

M.IP NAI Profile

MMS Server URL

Dial ##778# and ##3282# to access those(you will need your MSL/SPC code to change any settings). I think QPST Service Programming can also alter these settings if you're having trouble with ##778#. Configure them to match your service provider. Hopefully this will point you in the right direction.

You should be able to search the forums to get a better answer...

but I believe once your Streak is rooted, you can use RootExplorer to go into system>apps, mount as r/w, and delete the .apk file.
