I've been toying with the idea of using my laptop as a DLNA / uPNP media server. I have most of my video/audio assets stored on an external USB memory drive (it's actually a MP3 player with custom RockBox firmware...but I digress), so I could also use my little NSLU2 Linux server, providing I install all the required software on it.

At the top of anyone's list there should be at least: AllShare, AndroMote, Twonky (and iMediaShare for those wanting to share media *from* the tablet device). I tried them all, with varying degrees of success due to the type of media server I was running on my Mac OS X laptop. Plex doesn't seem to provide this feature so I ended-up using TVMOBiLi instead, which provides a not-so-user-friendly web-based interface. There are other advanced servers, such as miniDLNA, uShare, FireFly or MediaTomb, but this was getting far too time-consuming so I stopped there.

In fact, I ended-up using VLC Player with its built-in "web interface" feature (essentially a streaming server that can be controlled remotely), and VLC Stream & Connect on the Android tablet. It works great, and the live transcoding of the video was pretty satisfying (only minor glitches due to re-synchronizing the A/V streams from time to time...probably some settings I can tweak in VLC-S&C). The nice thing about DLNA / uPNP is that it is a discoverable service, that clients normally automatically detect on a LAN. VLC offers the same level of "it just works", and allows me to browse my media files directly from the tablet. Nifty.

A more advanced method is to share a folder on the media server via Samba / SMB / CIFS (works on Windows, Linux and Mac), to mount the shared directory on the Android tablet via a custom-built CIFS kernel module. Then any basic file explorer will "see" the remote files as local files, which results in video/audio players being "tricked" into thinking they are working with local files, when opening media assets from the file explorer. Conversely, using Astro (with SMB support) or ES File Explorer we can access network files via the smb: protocol, but video/audio players are unlikely to support opening media via this kind of URL (most players only support local files). Also note that the transfer speed may be problematic depending on the required media bitrate...anyone to test full HD video streaming ?

Hi.

I use VLC Stream & Convert and it works nicely except audio-video delay.

For me is more important to understand how to stream my video in internet to watch them when I'm outside of my home network.

Previously I use HTTP protocol in Maemo OS , but in Android OS and RTSP things are different.

daniel.weck, do you have experience with this?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] daniel.weck:
VLC Stream & Convert supports both HTTP and RTSP I think, there are many options in both the server (VLC Player) and the client (VLC S&C). Streaming content from a source within your LAN to an external destination on the internet requires a particular setup:

* fixed IP WAN address at your home broadband connection (or a dynamic one that is identifiable).

* router with NAT and firewall configured so that some ports are open to the local LAN IP address that serves content. See the VideoLan documentation for UDP/TCP protocol ports.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] ftgg99:
Vlc-based solutions are not really solutions. I for one have the vast majority of my media on a ion-based htpc which just doesn't do well converting on the fly. What we really need is a good dlna client for the tab, like allshare but better.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] daniel.weck:
Have you tried Andromote and Twonky?
[G2 and Desire Z General] phantasybm:
So my autobrightness sucks. It hardly ever changes and I have to turn the screen off and then back on for it to take effect.

Am I the only one with this problem?
[G2 and Desire Z General] byrdman164:
I just got my G2 yesterday, and I've also noticed that the auto brightness doesn't seem too quick. Or, it doesn't seem like it's changing at all. My Nexus changes really quick to adapt to light, and you can see it happen when it needs to...

But then again, I've only had the G2 for less than 24 hours. And it was nighttime so maybe I'll have better luck in the day with light? I doubt it though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hectorinwa:
"why auto brightness is effectively useless."
[G2 and Desire Z General] ibemad1:
Root and go to cyanogenmod RC1. It gives you absolute total control over how often your autobrightness adjusts, gives it the ability to adjust brightness downwards, let's you set the brightness levels, and even let's you set a moving average on the light sensor output lulz.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2 running Cyanogenmod.
[G2 and Desire Z General] SiL3nTKiLL:
change to cyanogenmod....brightness is a 100% better

Hi all,

Can anyone try to install HTC Sense on T-Mobile G2, is it possible?

Pls tell me how can and how I get HTC Sense for G2.

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Look for a custom ROM with Sense built into it on the dev forum.
[G2 and Desire Z General] meltedmoops999:
Root your G2 with the rooting procedure back in the Development Forum for the Vision/G2.

Go to this and find one that your comfortable with: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=758#

He'll need S-OFF as well, won't he, not just root ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] tbssimp:
I had to turned S-off when i did mine... I think I had to in order to get rom manager to back up the stock rom. I didn't have any prob though.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] suyama8:
you can use the button trackpad for unlock?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kevin2516:
Learn to use the search function please. You can use trackpad to unlock if you run a custom Rom with that mod. E.g. cyanogenmod or wild puzzle.

Installed widget locker on my Buzz and enabled easy wake in its settings (meaning pressing any hardware buttons will wake the phone). Hope this helps. ;)

Hi, I installed trackballunlock.zip from wildpuzzle on my 2.1 stock ROM with OC kernel. For most of the time it works but sometimes you have to use both power and trackball to unlock.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] goldbeard:
Try Lockbot pro

Try Lockbot pro..it works seemlessly..the screen gets unlocked on any key like volume button, trackball etc...

On the down side of all these apps, the incoming call lock screen too come up with a NO LOCK, with only Answer and Decline buttons which might accidentally make us to answer/decline the calls
[Networking] k9nadav:
Hi There,

when surfing the web through our smartphones we frequently use WiFi free networks, the problem is that there is an add on for firefox, 'FireSheep',

that reviels our login info for our facbook, gmail and even bank accounts

is there any firewall or anything else that can avoid such info theaft?
[Networking] pulser_g2:
Yes, install the plugin "blacksheep" which can alert you if someone is using it, by spoofing cookies for it to "steal".

Use a VPN though if you are concerned. Wifi without encryption isn't secure, and you can expect any cookies to be sniffed when using it.
[Networking] Mobiplayer:
Not for Android nor WP7 nor iOS AFAIK.

Just try to avoid using any app that doesn't encrypt communications. How would you know that? I don't know of any studies or papers about this... so test at home using wifi! :-)

For browsing the web just avoid to login in any web through http, do it all over https.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
The Transparent status bar will only show up if you use ADW launcher, for some reason Launcher Pro doesn't show it as transparent (but the theme does still work, and I am still not sure why)

I have modified the status bar and the background, but currently using the standard icons, and I haven't yet figured out how to change the network provider text and date text colours to change the full theme (will research this tomorrow)

Will be changing the icons fairly soon

Still, here is the very first, mod from me for the new custom ROM or the X10

The status bar for AOSP is using a gradient, I like it, but let me know if you think a solid transparent colour would be better...

(You can see it best from the last screen shot in the market)

To install, you will need a rooted X10:

For Custom ROM (AKA AOSP) :download the transparentAOSP.7z and unzip.

For SE Standard: download transparent.7z and unzip

From the unzipped location, run the transparent setup.cmd file and choose the options you want.

Please be sure to select the correct theme for the version of 2.1 you are running. If you flash the wrong one, you will need to reflash with SEUS or update manager.

I would also advise you take a full backup with titanium, just in case

Release:

V0.1 Initial Release, black transparent mods to framework-res.apk

V0.2 Black mods to Conversations.apk, updated installer

V0.3 Red mods made to framework-res.apk and conversations.apk, updated installer to include black and red selection

V0.4 Blue and Green now added

V0.5 'Blank' theme added

V0.6 AOSP theme added
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nfizree:
do i need to root my phone in order to perform this installation??
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] AussieWolfie:
Looks good going to try when I get home :) i'll post how it looks on my mini pro
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Yes, you will.

I've used the super one click rooting method, as it is the best I have found so far, but if you root through another method makesure you install busybox and super user.

I have used Chewitt's installer from his theme, and modified it for my theme
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] _calum_:
Nice man :)

Added a link in the themes reference.

You might want to change 'Opaque' to 'Transparent' though ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Yea, that's probably wise... I started with an opaque idea, that changed to transparent, but the names didn't :p

No idea why I stuck with it here though

hurmm...i put my phone on debug mode n my phone is rooted and now it said mount: operation not permitted

cannot open for write: permission denied
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
OK, from a windows command line, with the phone in debug mode, try the following:

adb shell <press enter>

su <press enter - assuming you have super user on your phone, you will get a request for super user permissions, click allow>

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system <press enter>

chmod 4755 /system/bin/sh <press enter>

exit <press enter>

exit <press enter>

Then try again...
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nfizree:
sorry...but where can i found the windows command line?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
you will need to do this from a computer, rather than straight from your phone and for this I'm assuming you are using windows on your PC (I don't know the specifics for linux or mac OSX)

but, go to start and run, type 'cmd' and press enter. Then you will get the command line, then type as posted in the last post from me, then, finally, try to run the cmd file in the zip you downloaded from the first post.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nfizree:
again...

ok i run cmd n this come out after i typed adb shell ''adb is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.''
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
OK, do you have the Android SDK installed?

If you have, then you will need to change directory in the command window to the SDK path - e.g. should you install SDK in C:\Android-SDK_windows then type cd Android-SDK_windows

Then run the adb shell command from there.

If you need the SDK, download from here:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

There are also a few ADB guides around on the XDA forums that will have more details step-by-step guides and should help with trouble shooting

(for example, this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=821022)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nfizree:
yup i have sdk n now ''chmod 4755 /system/bin/sh <press enter>'' not permitted

*stucked again >.<
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
but the first line worked (so you are in adb shell and have been presented with the message on your phone asking to give unknown super user permissions)

Try taking a look at this guide (should help you through the whole process)

Oh yea, just noticed my external card doesn't mount anymore too. It mounts as a cd drive and I can't write to it.

Confirmed. I am running stock JK2 and could previously mount my external sd to the computer. After flashing ULF kernel and converting to JFS overkill it now mounts as a cd drive.

As far as everything else goes it's amazing. Great work guys. I was using i9000 version a couple months ago; so nice to finally have the correct buttong mapping ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] JeremyNT:
If this is based on the I9000 sources, they don't include support for our GPS chipset - right? Did you port the GPS drivers from the Vibrant 2.6.29 sources?

[Vibrant Android Development] Ashex1:
Link back to the thread as I had not heard of this kernel before and wanted to read on exactly how it works before using it.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashless:
Is the boot animation supposed to flash between the stock T-Mo animation and one that looks like a pc booting up?

I doubt it, but that's whats going on for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
Use Root Explorer and go to /system/bin and either delete "playlogo" and "playlogos1" or add ".bak" to the end of them. That will get rid of the TMO boot up animation. If you are using a kernel that supports boot animations with the unofficial stock TMO then you will see both boot animations simultaneously until one or the other is deleted.
[Vibrant Android Development] asane:
Thanks

Cheers!!!

Is it possible to enable multiple lag fixes with this? Like OCLF and Voodoo at the same time?
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
What would be the point of this? To answer your question, NO.
[Vibrant Android Development] JeremyNT:
This thing includes pretty much every variant of the loopback filesystem hack. What people call "lag fixes" are just different combinations of filesystems and techniques to create them, and "combining" them has no real meaning.

Really, this supersedes all the existing standalone lag fixes and provides an easy easy to switch between filesystems.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
Delete the bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg from /system/media. DO NOT delete the playlogos1 file.

see above post

see above above post

nope
