Hi !

Is there a player able to play mkv 720p files ? It doesn't matter if it drop down resolution to fix in the one of the monitor.

I have tried TMCP but it crash as I select the files, coreplayer instead said that it do not support ac3....I think that it would be nice to add ac3 support to core player..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tmihai20:
Why go through all this trouble? Just reencode the movie or just get a normal DVD Rip. I don't think there is a player for WinMobile that can play 720p. It will look like crap anyway.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] light_n_roses:
yea I knew that I could easily ttry with a standard format...but I think that the only problem with the core player is the ac3 audi..I think that it can manage the mkv video part...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tmihai20:
I think the limitation is imposed by the OS, not the hardware. And I also think you won't find a 720p WinMobile video player. You're not the first one asking about this and surely you won't be the last one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] blownart:
hd2 cant handle 720p video, I tried on an android build - vplayer alpha(something like that).

It was really laggy.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ccezar2004:
i don't get it why is anyone even thinking about this... as the native resolution of the HD2 is less than 720p.... it's like watching bluray discs on an hd ready tv set... u can do it... but you don't need it...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
I apologize in advance for starting another thread about Odin connection problems, but all the related threads did not have an answer to my problem.

Okay, I have Odin3v1.0 installed on Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit, I have the latest Samsung drivers 1.3.450.0 for the Vibrant, and I know how to access DL mode, but for some reason I can't get Odin to recognize my Vibrant for the life of me. I tried starting Odin first with the files loaded, connecting the phone in DL mode then starting Odin, rebooted several times, uninstalled then reinstalled the drivers for the Vibrant, tried different usb ports, tried both ways to start DL mode, for my amusement I even powered up my phone and changed my usb settings from "ask on connection" to "mass storage". The only things I haven’t done yet try this on another PC (I only have one) or putting a bullet in this phone! If there is anyone who has a solution to this problem I would greatly appreciate a reply. Thanks for any help.

EDIT: Thanks for everyone's help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tynen:
Try the newer odin.

I had a similar problem but I think it's unrelated. When I plugged phone in it failed to load drivers correctly. I reinstalled the drivers

Over the old set. And then it worked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
Try switching usb cables? If your other pc is XP, I would use that one.

Sent from far away
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
Tynen, so you say try a newer version of Odin? Do you mean V4.252? I have that installed as well it the same problem occurs. If there's a different version of Odin that is more reliable then what version is it and where do I download it? I'm open for any suggestions. Rangercaptain, thanks for your solution but I only have one pc and one usb cable for my Vibrant.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
Okay, so I found other version's of Odin, v1.3 and v1.7. Still no success. I have an old laptop that I'm repairing so I can try Odin on it. I'll keep posting updates.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CzE517:
Same problem happened to me believe it or not after about 15 tries ODIN found my vibrant and was connected.. I thought I was screwed for sure!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
I tried a ton of times, so I'm literally screwed! Unless I get this other computer running so I can try Odin on it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
Bump, still no luck
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyCharlie:
This works for me every time. Plug your phone in to your computer while it's still off. Load up odin but don't load the files you want yet. Then boot your phone into download mode. Your com port should appear. Now load your files install and enjoy! Hope that helps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
I think I tried that, but I'll give it another try, I have nothing to lose.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kgirl:
also try running Odin in administrator mode.. right click on your desktop icon and it should be in the menu.. I had problems to until I did this after a restart of the computer itself..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Donovan_:
Odin always gives me a headache. Sometimes it works fine sometimes not. usuallywhen out does work it hangs at factory.rfs. But to get it working I install samsung kies, for some reason the drivers it installs works better than the ones I download from samsung. Only thing I can say its keep trying, eventually odin decides to work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
I always run it as administrator, but I'll try reinstalling kies
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
[RESOLVED]

Finally I got my PC to recognize my Vibrant. Rangercaptain was right in suggesting another USB cable; the one I was using was defective. I went to a T-Mobile store and grabbed a new USB cable, hooked it up, and bam! So I'm up and running Eugene's JK2 Froyo on my Vibrant. Thanks for everyone’s help!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slimatic:
My issue is a weird one. Very confusing

When I boot the phone to the Vibrant splash screen...nothing happens

I can ADB into recovery and download modes easily

But once I am into recovery or download mode ADB does not work. It does not recognize the device.

It also recognizes ODIN at the Vibrant splash screen but not in the Download mode.

When in download mode, the device is not recognized.

When on the Vibrant screen I get this:

ADB works only when I<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

I have been trying for hours. Any ideas?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dverrette:
I'm not to sure how ADB works, I would check the Q&A for Vibrants or start a new thread there. Good luck!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
i am having the same issue. I literally just recieved a new usb cable in the mail(not from tmobile) and still no connection to odin whatsoever. My phone will charge from the wall charger no problem but the usb to pc will not work on either of the two usb cables i have now. I am guessing i should buy a cable straight from the tmobile store, if that doesn't work then im totally screwed i guess lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mryounghc:
if your cable is new then more than likely your charging port is bad. not uncommon on this phone.you get a "device not recognized" or similar message? there are many posts in this section with usb problems. i myself went through 3. my own fault because i have been replacing them with used parts that i think were ready to go bad anyway. it could be one of my cable causing my ports to go bad because i dont mess with my wifes phone as much as mine and we got them at the same time. she has never had a problem. anyway you can get ports on ebay for a few bucks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
UPDATE/FIXED: I went ahead and got a new usb cable from the tmobile store just as a last ditch effort and voila it works flawlessly. I was ready to throw my soft bricked vibrant in the trash because the other two usb cables i own(one is brand new from Amazon) would do absolutely NOTHING when connected to the pc. I was almost positive my micro USB port on my phone had gone bad but i figured i would buy a $15 cable from Tmobile themselves just to make sure and my phone is back alive! It connected to Odin with no problems whatsoever, so i would HIGHLY recommend going and buying a Tmobile brand USB cable if you are having problems connecting to your pc or charging for that matter.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knicks791:
Any other solution

I'll get a new USB but I don't think it is the cable since adb recognizes the phone. Any other advice would be much appreciated. Also, does your phone have to be rooted to use Odin?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knicks791:
After switching USB cable and removing the SD card, odin did recognize the phone. Thanks....

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smackmethg:
With the stock rom, I was able to answer incoming calls through my truck radio while listening to music via the headset jack. The music would pause, phone would ring and I would hear the caller through the speakers and the built in mic would kick in.

Now with cognition 2.2 and now 2.3b6 incoming calls only go through the normal phone.

Looking for a fix or info on where to look.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConnorDN:
I delete my text messages on a regular basis, but when I went into that file finder thing, and typed in a generic word I knew I had in loads of my texts, and sure enough, loads popped up.

They are obviously saved somewhere, but how do I totally delete them from the the memory, my HD2 is so slow...

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckych:
try going to all messages, then go to option and change to traditional view, and then go delete--> then select all, and finally delete. Hope that makes sense.

That will delete all messages including sent. Then you would need to go back to all messages and then go to trash and empty trash bin as that is where they go after you press delete.

Hope this helps! if this doesnt work just message me :)
[G Tablet General] throtlejock:
So i got my g tablet on black friday and love it so far as long as all i use it for is surfing the net... the tapntap is ok for now except that it does not see or recognize ANY of my media... only way i can seem to get it to work is with the.. es file explorer... it will open/play and see the media :) but in a completely un organized fashion. Id like to know if its just mine or is there a fix?? help?? ... cuz its going back if it is just mine or not fixable.. id love to change the ui like i have seen others do on here but im just not tech savvy enough anymore.. i haven't found any other threads with this issue so any help would be appreciated............. Thanks :)

Im totally new to this android thing.. i have a DROID but its always worked!! so lol never explored past the market...
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Is your media on the microSD? If so, then this is a common with tablets (not phones). The apps are still designed with phones in mind, where the microSD slot is /sdcard. But, on our device, /sdcard is the internal memory and /sdcard2 is the microSD.

The zPad firmware manages to get around this issue by mapping the microSD card as a subfolder under /sdcard, so apps can find content there.
[G Tablet General] mmracing:
roebeet,

Is that a prossiblity in a futre upgrade to TNT Lite? I bought a 16gb microSD card yesterday and it's pretty useless other than a storage device.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I tried doing this awhile back, but failed. I think that the TnT framework expects the microSD to be on /sdard2. It's a combo of the init.rc and the vold.fstab, so ideally we should be able to change it if TnT hadn't thrown us a curveball.

I personally am OK with it as /sdcard2. I play videos off file explorer and music off the app "Andless" (which can scan /sdcard2). And ACV for comic reader can also scan /sdcard2. So it really depends on the app.
[G Tablet General] urbanartfx:
I put the music on /sdcard2 , and /sdcard and when I open up the music player still it says no files found
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Most music players (including stock) expect the music files to be on /sdcard. They can't read /sdcard2.
[G Tablet General] throtlejock:
It doesn't matter where i put the media... it wont load it... ive pretty much decided im taking the tablet back .... i cant justify spending that kinda money on something that cant do what my phone can.... such as play music videos pictures ... and flash player... i cant for the life of me understand why any company would release a product like this that isn't even complete on the software side of things. :(
[G Tablet General] throtlejock:
Never mind i didn't realize i had to reboot the thing after loading media on /sdcard ... opps totally forget that i cant change my card on my droid without pulling the battery... thus automatic reboot... total after thought :) told ya i was new to this lol
[G Tablet General] treenuts:
Any other music players

Has anyone had luck with other music players that can be mapped to access /sdcard2?

Andless works (thanks for the recommendation Roebeet) but it really lacks any fun-factor! I'd like to see album art, use id3 tags, and use play my music from /sdcard2. Poweramp can't do this (folder options are hard-coded).

I'll try the new Winamp beta later on tonight and report back. Thanks All!
[G Tablet General] treenuts:
MortPlayer Beta reads /sd2

After trying 4 different music player apps, I stumbled upon Mortplayer beta. It reads .id3 tags, displays album covers, and most importantly for VEGAn users, it can read files from the gtab's microSD slot. Have fun all!
[G Tablet General] digger44:
I use winamp and the music app in tnt-lite. Both use microsd card, read tags and use album art. The music app doesn't show album art until you pick a song, tho.
[G Tablet General] treenuts:
Were you able to get Winamp to read .mp3s from sdcard2? I tried and failed.

Hey guys it's my first post in this 4rum. :D

Since I just got my G2 2 days ago and currently look for some accessories, I just came across this and thought I would have share for anyone that is interested.

This is a Black Friday deal for Sandisk MicroSDHC 32GB.

EDIT: Since I'm new I can't post the link but you can always go to Sandisk website and look in there.

Price: $62.99 with free shipping

Apply promo code SDTHANKS10 for an additional 10% off.

Final cost: $56.69

Was debating between a 16GB class 10 and this but in the end couldn't resist the price and made the jump, hopefully it's a good purchase. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Flyin18T:
Nice find. Thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] joshlusignan:
Thats a good price...to bad US site wont ship to Canada where they are selling them for 203.99!!!! WTF!!:eek: Someone should tell them that the dollars are almost equal now. lol

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sosquidtaste:
Hmm, I went ahead and placed the order, backorder be damned.

I've emailed customer service to see if they have any idea when it'll be back in stock, and will gladly update this thread when (and if) I hear anything substantive :]

Thanks for pointing out the deal, OP!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ztmike:
I bought this

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003WGJYCY/ref=oss_product

When it was $77 shipped ..I see the price has been jacked up to $79 shipped but still a good deal.

Its a class 2, but from the reviews its actually rated around class 4..and I have used mine, its not slow or anything.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] iTravis:
Should be the same one I ordered from SanDisk, but buying directly from retailer website so the risk of getting a fake one is minimal. Anyway I heard SanDisk never make a 32GB Class 4, it should be Class 2.

For anyone with the backorder status. I contacted SanDisk and the rep said that my item will be shipped on the 13th, so it takes about 3 weeks to get here but well for the price guess I can't really complain.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sosquidtaste:
Thanks for the update, iTravis-- the 13th will be a fine day :]

As regards the Class 2/Class 4 issue, I remember reading on these and other boards that Class ratings aren't always super reliable (especially between separate brands, although to some degree within the same manufacturer as well).

I'm blanking on the exact post, or I'd link the thread. In either case, let's hope our cards pull some Class 9 billion speeds on us, right?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] iTravis:
I did read those threads and that's why I decided to get the 32GB instead of the 16GB class 10, for the price you can't beat it anyway :). I guess we'll be fine if just use for apps and music.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sosquidtaste:

I'm not trying to thread Jack so OP please forgive me...but for my few and fellow Canadians...newegg canada has wintec 16GB class 10 cards for 35 I believe it was. I bought 3 of em.

ALSO regarding shipping from USA...if you don't mind crossing the border to pick up parcels from cross border mail services, just call your credit card company and ask them to add and authorize the US parcel service company address as a secondary billing address. Then you can order from the USA to the parcel company's address if the retailer has to match your credit card billing address with the shipping address!

I just got a used Droid X , and want to know the life timer and refurbish status, what dial code to check that ?

The Droid X is still Android 2.1 and i want to upgrade to Froyo 2.2 and custom rom, can somebody help expalining the procedure to Flash, Root, 2.2 Upgrade and custom rom (I am a newbie to this) ?

Thanks a ton before.
[Droid X General] Ubermicro13:
First you want to make sure you charge your battery to atleast 70% then go to Settings>About Phone>Check for Updates. It will download 2.2 then guide you through the installation. To root your phone their are several methods. One of the easiest probably being downloading the app "z4Root" from the market. It was made by a member of these forums and I have used it many times its a simple 1 tap and its done.

Then you will need to get a few things to flash a ROM. They are Droid X Bootstrapper and Clockwork Recovery (Rom Manager).

Open up ROM manager and click "Flash Recovery" at the top, make sure you click allow when the superuser thing pops up.

Open Bootstrapper hit "Bootstrap recovery" and allow it then hit "Reboot recovery." Don't freak out when your phone restarts its supposed to do that. Then you know Clockwork recovery works.

Once you find the ROM you want just follow the instructions on the thread for the ROM EXACTLY! And you should be all set.

If you need more help their are plenty of tutorials all over the internet.

Sorry for the terrible organization and grammar i just woke up and I'm still in bed using my phone to type this lol.

I have tried reflashing cyanogenmod two times, and tried both amon ra, clockwork and psfreedom recovery. Neither manages to make my Dream look like a mass stragedevic to any computer, and the PSFreedom version doesn't manage to do its thing either.

So something about the usb on my phone seems to be borked. Adb and fastboot works lik it shoud, and it charges, but it won't act as a mass storage or jailbreak device what so ever, and it do seem to be rom independent. Any ideas?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleeps17:
These instructions are for Windows 7:

First, plug in your phone with the USB cable. Try going to the Device Manager on your computer. Find your device (if you can), and right click > Properties. Click the "Driver" tab and then click "Update driver..." Now click "Browse my computer for driver software", then click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", then finally click "USB Mass Storage Device".

Then it shall install the driver. Go back Computer and see if it shows up under the Device and Removable Storage section.

Sleeps17: I'm not that dumb, luckilly, but thanks anyway. :P

It is solved now, after running a comlete wipe script, erasing everything from fastboot, and then reflashing radio, hboot and recovery from fastboot., I'm still a bit stumped as to what could have caused this. The USB icon did appear, and I could choose to mount USB storage, but I would just get errors in dmesg (running linux) onj my computer when i did.

I did try to flash a home-baked recovery image that there was something wrong with, along with a bunch of other recovery images. Guess something must have screwd something up.
