[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I like the fact that you can re-order your pages, which I've not seen in any other build (I don't think it's in the Evo build).

When you click home twice, it brings up the pages and if you long-hold on one you can drag it round to re-arrange them.

That's a very nice feature that I'd like to see introduced into other launchers.

I'm with FrAsErTaG though - vanilla Froyo FTW!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
^^yes, ordering of pages is nice...but its mostly a one time thing...atleast for me..so once its set...its all set...

Funny, I'm not able to see higher pixel density or such...its appearing exactly like sense clean which i used earlier...i'm on core droid HD v0.2 btw
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rogerG27:
Indeed, this build is exceptional :)

Fast, smooth, no glitches..

And this particular one has the g-sensors enabled

How can i develop a customized keyboard on Windows Phone 7?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Ren13B:
You can't replace the SIP or modify it on WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mSafdel:
so how can i have a keyboard in different languages?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] The Gate Keeper:
phone > settings > keyboard. what's listed there are the languages supported on your device at present. more will come as MS expands the platform and enters into other markets.
[G Tablet General] lostpilot28:
I have downloaded a few apps trying to convert a ripped DVD (the latest Star Trek flick) to MP4 format. I am looking for something that is freeware. Does anyone have a recommendation?

I tried "Any Video Converter" that I downloaded from CNet, but the formats available don't seem to cover the G-tab. I converted Star Trek using 720x580, but it's too small on the screen. The video plays nice and smooth, though.

The other thing I would "like to have" is a converter that converts all the .VOB files into a single .mp4. Right now I have about 15 .VOB files in a directory. Watching 15 minutes of a movie then having to double-click the next .mp4 isn't ideal. And yes, I tried selecting all of them and executing, but it only plays the first video selected.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :D
[G Tablet General] timehunter:
I use DVD Catalyst, and have through many different devices now. It can convert to pretty much any popular format, and it has device profiles, many already preset. If it doesn't have a device preset for your device, you can easily create one. It is payware, but it is not expensive, and have have been very ahppy with its results.
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
I use Handbrake. It is free, and you can use presets, or can pick your own.
[G Tablet General] billmarquette:
Handbrake works really well and it's default preset seems to be working fine for the tablet (only tried one video so far).

--Bill
[G Tablet General] lostpilot28:
Thanks, fellas! Handbrake works great! Exactly what I was looking for.

;)
[G Tablet General] HKChad:
What settings did you use in Handbrake? I can't seem to get anything to play on this thing.

thanks
[G Tablet General] lostpilot28:
I just made sure that I was converting to MP4 format. I think it's the H.264 format.
[G Tablet General] aaron19953:
handbrake

i used these settings..

http://www.funtechtalk.com/motorola...mat-conversion-settings-using-free-handbrake/

however i upped the res, my handbrake topped out at 720 though.. read the whole thing including the comments, something about handbrake and custom cropping, halfway down i think..

-=<> aaron <>=-
[G Tablet General] billmarquette:
I noticed some of the movies I ripped came out with an m4a extension which I couldn't get recognized. Renaming to mp4 had both Rockplayer and the native player play them with no issues. Both DVD rips at default resolution as well as a 720p MKV transcoded with Handbrake at whatever the default setting chose.

--Bill
[G Tablet General] jdnyc:
I use handbrake as well.

Is there a player with subtitle support?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
Do you use a spare battery and if so, is it the same brand and capacity or different?

If it's the same brand and capacity, what's your experience on how Android handles it?

If it's different brands and capacity, what's your experience on how Android handles it?

In my personal experience, Android is very poor at "handling" different brand/capacity batteries. For example, one of the batteries will perform very poorly (like at only 20% of its rated capacity).

Never had problems like these with Windows Mobile. Not that any of us would want to go back to Windows mobile, but a major advantage of Android phones is the ability to swap batteries, but this doesn't seem to work as well as it should.

Hopefully, maybe I'm the only one experiencing this and everyone else's phones work "normally" as we'd expect.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
I've got two eBay/Chinese 3500 mAh batteries. I only bring the second with me to work if it's going to be a >12hr shift.

I've also got five eBay/Chinese 1500 mAh batteries (4 + the stock battery). They all work fine, and the only time I'll use them instead of the bigger ones is if I'm getting tired of the 3500's additional size.

But, as far as I can tell, they all work as expected, even after going through the laundry once or twice. ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devnulldroid:
Stock and OEM extended batteries from Sprint/HTC. One of each. They do quite well. Usually extended battery is enough to get e through the day. Stream lots of music through Plantronics Pro bluetooth headset during the day.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
I have a seidio 3500 and a hong kong 3500, both seem to work about the same, I also have 2 2000's from china that are the same size as stock but do last a bit longer, maybe a couple hours more than stock in similar usage situations. 3500 seems to be fine for a complete day of medium/ some heavy usage
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
That's good! What ROMs do you guys use? Maybe it's my ROM that has problems.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devnulldroid:
My ROM and Kernel info is in my signature. My battery issues were usually an issue with kernel. Tried Virus ROM AirBorne and ziggy 11\13 kernel which was great, but currently am using what is in sig.

Also found 4g to be running and doing a continuous scan (even though I dont have 4g here) through logcat so I made some changes there too.

Seems some 4g widgets can activate 4g, on startup or otherwise, and cause it to scan for 4g when not in use or even after you turn it off.

If you toggle on 4g and toggle it off it may not be enough. Reboot phone and it should really be off then (verify through logcat). Also make sure 4g doesn't activate itself on startup or reboot, unless you live in a 4g area and want that of course.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenniech:
stock battery and two 1500mAH china battery..

I don't like extended battery.. makes my EVO looks fat.. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebu:
I'm getting ridiculous battery life as it is on my rom. I can go two days on heavy usage, 3 on medium. I always play music off my phone when driving, at least an hour on the phone, and 200 texts a day. Throw in craigslist, engadget, and nfl apps and about an hour of games a day too.

Battery life on 2.1 was actually better though, with fflokes old kernel on 2.1 I was getting 80+ hours/charge. Haven't fully tested as the newest fresh rom has been the best battery life since then, but I'd guess it could top that now.

Twitter, fb, google, weather, and news syncs on, never turn 3G off, barely use 4G or wifi. Only bt for long phone calls.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
I don't notice how crappy my battery life is until I'm on the etchings battery. They only last about 4-6 hours for me. Got autostarts, juice defender and most of my radios off..i just don't know, any suggestions?

I have a USB splitter cable coming from HK, in the next few weeks - want to see if I can split off to use both a USB keyboard and mouse on VEGAn.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lavcoles:
Hey I was trying to install Axura final the other day and couldn't. I would go to Rommanager, install rom from sd, pick the room, then it would go into clockwork recovery and it looked like it would start downloading. It would then quit downloading almost immediately and take me to the main clockwork recovery menu. I would then just try to reinstall system packages(after renaming it update.zip) and it would come up with an error saying that it couldn't mount my sd or something like that. Any ideas why? I know its probably something simple that I'm not doing
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lavcoles:
Anyone else ever have this problem, or have any idea how to fix it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEFINITIONOFREAL:
Where you running a lag fix? If so disable it. And its always better to odin back to stock before flashing a new rom

[Android Apps and Games] mikef1182:
Thought this was not in dev any more but it looks like they are still working on it and have released a new beta with Google Voice support. Looks pretty sweet!

http://larvalabs.com/blog/android/slidescreen-2-0-beta/
[Android Apps and Games] InitialG:
so, is this some kind of home replacement??
[Android Apps and Games] mikef1182:
Yep. Its a home screen replacement that gives youa quick glance of most important stuff on one screen. Pretty cool idea.
[Android Apps and Games] InitialG:
Used it for a good hour...it's ok...
[Android Apps and Games] mikef1182:
Yea the beat has no way to launch apps so I uninstalled it. You have to hit the hm key to leave SlideMe and go back ou tto the reg home scree. The non beta app you dont have to do that.
[Android Apps and Games] h_zee13:
you can set it as a home replacement, so a launcher....or you can just use it as a normal app

if you set as a launcher then it will have it's own app drawer
[Android Apps and Games] DaveHTC200:
I think its brill, could do with a K9 plug in though

Sent from my X10i its
[Android Apps and Games] mikef1182:
They took out the built in app drawer in the 2.0 beta.
[Android Apps and Games] TooSlo:
I noticed that when trying it out. It was quite disheartening since I REALLY love the app and enjoy being able to modify which items are where on the screen layout, but without an app drawer, it's kinda.... useless.
[Android Apps and Games] TooSlo:
Update: Looks like Beta 2 has been released, and app drawer functionality has made it's way back in.

Horray for the updated features as well as being able to use it as my launcher replacement!

I'm not sure if this is a bug, so I might file it as a feature request on the bug reporting page - Pressing the "Home" button on an HTC EVO doesn't bring you back to the main launcher page, instead leaves you either in an app drawer view, or in a settings menu. To get back to the launcher, you need to press the "Back" button several times.
[Android Apps and Games] mikef1182:
Awesome new about the app drawer, going to get the new version now!
[Android Apps and Games] DaveHTC200:
I also find this frustrating, but overall the launcher is excellent.

I do suffer with FC's at times which just seem to not stop, but I'm overlooking these while in beta stage.

Sent from my X10i
[Android Apps and Games] TooSlo:
I've posted a bug report about the home button and got a response. Hopefully they end up getting a fix out for it relatively soon.

I think some of the FC's you might be getting are from the Android version you're running. You have a Sony X10? Aren't you running 1.6? I'll have to look further, but I think that the app is compatible with Eclair or above currently.
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Great home replacement app! I do have some pet peeves though:

- As others have said, you cannot return to your old homescreen even when pressing the Home key several times. It would be nice for it to revert to a previous home launcher (e.g. ADW, Launcherpro) unless prompted again.

- Is it possible to make use of K9 Mail instead of GMail for the email client? A plugin of some sort would be mighty fine.

Other than that, this might be my next favorite app for Android.
[Android Apps and Games] DaveHTC200:
The X10 has been given the 2.1 update, so thats cool.

It turns out the FC's i was getting was due to a google voice beta i had installed, so removed that and its been fine since! :)

This is being looked at so i'm informed
[Android Apps and Games] TooSlo:
If you enter the App Drawer and press Menu -> Home Settings -> Home Switching -> Toggle "Switch Homes"

I think this is what you are referring to? This should allow you to use the Home button to toggle between SS and your main launcher.

EDIT: Beta 3 was released. http://gsfn.us/t/1yjjb

Fixes "Home" button while using SS as primary launcher. I <3 the devs of this app, they REALLY listen!
[Android Apps and Games] neotericpiguy:
Has anyone received the version expired warning? the error asks the user to look on the forums for a new beta but I can't find any.
[Android Apps and Games] DaveHTC200:
I've not experienced that error, but the link in the post above yours takes you to the info/download page.

Sent from my X10I
[Android Apps and Games] PeRRiiN:
I absolutely love this home replacement app!
[Android Apps and Games] madAdam6LOVE:
Same here. I'll try reinstalling.

UPDATE: Just uninstall and reinstall beta 3. Works fine.
[Android Apps and Games] neotericpiguy:
I ended up installing beta 4 to fix the expiration error. http://getsatisfaction.com/larvalabs/topics/slidescreen_2_0_beta_4
[Android Apps and Games] DaveHTC200:
Beta 7 out

Sent from my X10i
[Android Apps and Games] HeDone4eH:
Beta 8 out :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] Freddan80:
Beta8 sucks, they have removed the launcher and it just takes you back to your default home and you have to use the launcher from there.

I have no need for using 2 launchers at the same time.
[Android Apps and Games] TooSlo:
From ss, hit menu and select home settings, then home switching.

You can set ss as the main launcher and the home button will bring you to the main ss launcher.

Less anger please.

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] iMushu:
The music player plugin for Slidescreen Beta 8 is great btw.

[HTC Tornado] Michaelbukachi:
hi, im a new user and i have a problem connecting my spv c600 to my pc(windows xp)via usb. every time i try to connect my device the pc detects at first but then says"a problem occurred during installation your new hardware might not work properly" i have activesync 4.5 installed but it does not detect. i was wondering if there is a free driver i could download to sort this problem .please i need your help because i want to upgrade the rom
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Windows Mobile devices are connected either via RNDIS or Serial over USB. Usually the decice is in the mode to connect over RNDIS, but when the drivers are missing on the PC they must be installed there. Look for generic RNDIS drivers on windows XP. You could also try to switch the device to Serial over USB mode. This hides in a something like "enhanced functionality" on the USB connection. On is "RNDIS" while off is "Serial" mode.
[HTC Tornado] Michaelbukachi:
where can this "enhanced functionality" be found, on the device or on the pc, please guide me i'm kind of new on this things
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
It is on the phone, probably somewhere in the settings menu. No clue about the menu on your phone as I use a cooked WM6 ROM. Possibly it is even only hidden in the registry somewhere. You will have to search XDA for this a little yourself - I cannot guide you through this.
[HTC Tornado] Michaelbukachi:
thanx for yor help
[Defy General] julschau:
Hi there, both problems crop up more and more over the internets.

hmm wanted to post links to both motorola support forums and the german forum android-hilfe. but alas i can't. i'm too new here i guess.

Anyone yet?
[Defy General] Higgsy:
12 days and no issues apart from ones caused myself:D
[Defy General] julschau:
do you use the headphone jack regularly?
[Defy General] tim440:
Dead earpiece here.
[Defy General] Higgsy:
ive only used headset twice to listen to music for a total of about 3 hours
[Defy General] scrannel:
Supposedly use of the stereo jack aggravates the problem. I see this a lot in Europe and very little in the US. So far.
[Defy General] danbutter:
Yeah it would be helpful if you post saying you are having an issue if you would also say what version of the phone you have. US or UK or whatever else is out there.

Seems mostly like there are two hardware versions, but I could be wrong.
[Defy General] SteveChou:
i am not buying this phone until I get more info on this problem. many people on the net have this problem.
[Defy General] :
less than a week of ownership and no issues so far
[Defy General] scrannel:
Honestly I only see the reboot on the non-US Motorola forum: three or four people in the UK. They are claiming it's related to loss of 3G?
[Defy General] julschau:
i think it has something to do with specific SIM cards (3n or 5n). theres more info on the german forum of android-hilfe.de
[Defy General] scrannel:
That's the info that the UK guys are pondering.
[Defy General] jk1234:
Sorry for my n00bishness but what is the difference between an 3n and 5n sim card, also how do I tell which type I have?

Thanks
[Defy General] necrolyte:
Broken earpiece here. Phone wasn't even a week old. Had used the headset a few times.

Now I have my second Defy and hope that it doesn't happen again.
[Defy General] tim440:
Where are you? I'm hoping they'll replace mine as opposed to sending it off to get it repaired.

How long have you had the new one?
[Defy General] SlightlyAmused:
Less than a week and no issues as of yet. I have had two random reboots so far but both were when my battery was under ten percent. Only issue I've had this far is battery life but I think its in part to me running launcher pro and not rooting yet, and the fact I use my phone ALOT. Overall I'm happy though, so much so that I will pay full price for a second one for the wife!
[Defy General] necrolyte:
I am in Germany. They wanted to send it in for repairs first but i had them exchange it on the spot. The second one is on it's first week now. Didn't play around with the headset but am calling myself every now and then to check if the earpiece still works ;)
