[General Questions and Answers] mpodo:
Hi Everyone,

I recently rooted my phone-Droid Incredible on verizon-and like a dumbass i deleted facebook for htc sense, not realizing that it was necessary to sync your contacts with facebook. i downloaded the apk and when i try to load it using astro it says file size 0 data size 0 total size 0. i redownloaded it a few times to the same effect. Did a factory reset in recovery mode and still nothing. don't know if there is any other solution besides flashing a new rom. would prefer not to do that as i am not that experienced of an android user. am a blackberry convert (6 yrs) and this is my first android phone.

any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

Welcome to the forums and please search and read as most question are already answered. Also as stated in your other post by another member please no double posting as it causes clutter. Just wait for the answer or comments on your first post.

As for the issue I would most likely say to download and flash the stock rom if you don't want to flash something custom. Android is extremely easy to get in to and you could always use this as a push towards doing so. If you have any issues you always have the forums here for help.

I retrieve my emails via POP. When they are retrieved, the emails are being marked as read. Sometimes I check my webmail before checking my phone, so I don't know which ones are new any more. Is there any way to keep emails unread during the Android POP retrieval?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
I'm guessing that it must be a server setting, as that's not what happens with Hotmail, using pop3.

Can someone please help me figure out the best settings for set CPU I just rooted my friends d1 last night and installed the miui Rom and he loves it but I have a hero and I'm not sure what the best settings are for set CPU
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] mack19318:
Try 250 min and 800-1100 (depending on kernel) and on demand for governer. I turn my gps off and am using lfy1.95 for my rom and my battery last about 9 hrs with lots of web,angry birds,twitter and sms,news widget.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Naked Sam:
I have a d1 and I'm OCd to 1.2gHzand my battery lasts the better part of a day with plenty of texting, phone calls, internet and gameboid. It is a lil unstable when too many apps are running in the background however. Btw I just noticed you said you had a hero. If so, you might wanna post your question in the HTC hero forum. Just a heads up for ya.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bierce22:
the question was about a droid not a hero
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] mkw87:
My droid runs good at 250 min and 700-1000 max. If it gets hot, which it likes to, I have setcpu set to scale it back to 600.

I'm using a P3 kernel, 125-1000. I have min at 125 and max at 900, interactive. Battery life is great, heat is great and runs great. (lot of greats, but that is Miui).

Check it out as it looks to be a useful alternative to Clockwork for updating or changing kernels though not on the fly.
[Vibrant General] Master™:
That is for HTC

Correct me if I am wrong, but that will not work for the GalaxyS
[Vibrant General] sader2202:
Hey master how did you change the animation in your axura roms. its really cool i like, how did you do it?
[Vibrant General] explodingboy70:
I guess I didn't read far enough but looks like you are correct. Could be useful though as it does say one of the requirements is either HTC drivers OR adb push. Worth looking into? Maybe.
[Vibrant General] Master™:
Nope, fastboot.

Wouldn't be compatible with Galaxy S
[Vibrant General] explodingboy70:
Oh okay. Just thought it might be a useful alternative since a lot are having issues with Clockwork although I'm not sure why, oh wait yes I am sure why...not reading, and I guess something different would just cause a new set of headaches.

[Epic 4G General] Dulanic:
Hey everyone. So I find I have an annoying issue that is kind of pissing me off. I guess a majority of car makers have this wonderful "feature" that sends a "play" signal to the phone while connecting. This would be nice IF I could pick the app it would play with but the epic and other phones like to pick the defauly music player.

The downside is that I tend to stream pandora or slacker while on the road so each morning I get 2 songs playing at once lol.... rather annoying. I then need to load the music player and stop it. There are some good parts to what the cars do....like if an incoming call is answered it pauses the active player (usually slacker for me) while on the call.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to change any of this behavior? I guess that would have to be a kernel change or possibly a bluetooth apk if there is one? I would love to try to find a way to leave the pause portion there for calls but maybe like a check if there is a active player on top then play or pause is OK, but if in background, dont do anything.

I have searched a lot on this and it seems to be a common issue. But I just wanted to see if anyone has any ideas. I tried the app "autostarts" but it complains about not having root access even though the phone is rooted so that isnt an option it seems. It's probably wishful thinking, but was hoping maybe someone has an idea.

Or is there something I could use to kill Music Player for example "if" it was auto started and not run by me directly?
[Epic 4G General] Silent25r:
I suppose you could use a task killer and set it to kill the music player whenever it starts up. You could always disable it when your not using it. I wouldn't use it for anything else besides the music player that you wish to kill.
[Epic 4G General] Dulanic:
The problem I see with that is with most task killers they use a timer... unless I am missing one that will kill it automatically when it opens? The downside to that is if I use another app to monitor that app I have a feeling I am going to kill my battery life if it constantly monitoring.
[Epic 4G General] megabillzilla:
You may be able to do this using tasker. It's not free (five bucks) and it's a bit complicated, but there is a week's trial on the developer's website.

I'm not allowed to post links, but just google tasker for android. The version in the market doesn't have the trial, though.The one on the developer's website is a buck cheaper and offers a trial.

If you aren't familiar with it, you can basically use it to take any input the phone uses (phone, sms, location data, gesture, bluetooth data, whatever) and make it output any event, so you could have it give a media all stop command every time you connect it to bluetooth. You could even have it automatically bring up a little menu with pandora, music player, last FM.. whatever media players you use.. after that. You could probably even get it to perform different behaviors depending on which bluetooth radio you connected to (so you could have it do something different in your car than in your friend's car for instance).

It's really a lifesaver of a program, well worth the five bucks I dropped on it, it's replace multiple other apps in my life. Not trying to sound too much like a commercial, but I have every reason to think it would do what you want. It is a bit complicated until you get the hang of it, though.
[Epic 4G General] Electrofreak:
+1... was just about to say, Tasker can do it. Tasker has been the best $5 I've spent in a loonnnng time.

I got tired of getting up in the morning for my 1.5 hour morning commute (gotta drop the kid off to daycare in another county) and getting to work late because it had been rainy and terrible. Setting the alarm crazy early just to check and see if the weather was any good was not a pleasant prospect, and with winter on the way, I needed a solution.

So I spent an evening with Tasker. I had it perform an HTTP GET at Accuweather.com after passing my zip code to the website. I then had it search the returned text for words such as "rain", "snow" and storm". It runs this search at about 5:00 AM, and dependent upon the result, sets an alarm (with a snooze function that I programmed in). After the initial alarm, since I knew I'd be too tired to pay much attention to WHY it had woken me up early, I have it speak out loud "Good morning, you have been woken early today because it is [X weather] and [X degrees, after performing a Celcius to Farenheit conversion]. It is currently [time].

I plan on posting the Tasker profile to my blog in a couple days after I'm sure it contains no bugs (it'll probably snow in the morning so I'll be able to test that scenario).

Anyhow, this just gives a taste of what Tasker can do. I have it launch a list of apps when I plug into the headset jack, silence my phone if I get within 300 meters of work, or sound an alarm, vibrate, flash an LED, take pictures, and redirect outgoing calls to my girlfriend's phone if I send it a certain text message, to name a few very useful profiles I've got set up.

Tasker does everything without forcing you to learn any syntax or do any coding at all. It would be a matter of minutes to set up a scenario where, if you connect via Bluetooth, it waits a moment and terminates the default video player application and then launches the other application you want to use. One of the profiles I've forgotten to mention is one that, when I launch Navigation with the GPS off, closes Navigation, enables GPS, and loads Navigation back up. When I'm in the car I just want to touch Navigation, not screw with GPS settings.

Anyhow, enough of my gushing about Tasker. Seriously, best $5 app you'll ever buy. Trust me.
[Epic 4G General] Dulanic:
That might be pretty nice... wonder if it can tell the difference between a bluetooth headset and AD2P. I'll have to try it. Wonder if it could start my car with its application too like 30 min after my alarm hehe.
[Epic 4G General] Dulanic:
I've been playing with Tasker and it will do what I need :) Thanks! I ended up setting up a profile that when it connects to my vehicle only, it will kill music player, wait 3 seconds and then kill it again... it took that due to the fact the car doesnt send the play signal for a few seconds.
[Epic 4G General] jzh797s:
I currently have a couple of problems...

I have a collection of music that is in WMA Lossless on my Windows Media Center. I am using Winamp to trans-code the music before it is sent wirelessly to my Epic. The music will play on my epic, however I get errors sending it over DLNA, saying that the format is not compatible. I have tried WAV and HE AAC for trans-coding. I am running DK17 and the Quantum Rom.

Also, I cannot seem to get handbrake to convert DVD rips to a playable format on my Epic which also function over DLNA.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to which formats I should be trans-coding to, to get these files working both on my Epic and over DLNA?
[Epic 4G General] jzh797s:
Bump... Anyone?
[Epic 4G General] Masterface7:
What you play over dlna is decided by codecs on the playing device not by the phone, whatever the destination device is you need to check the codecs for that. Note that there are more to codecs than just the extension name there are settings that may have to be matched.

Since it seems like a good chance you are using a pretty basic device you best bet is basic codecs. Xvid and mp3.

If those dont work then you should probably start saving for something like a ps3 where dlna playing is quick and pretty easy
[Epic 4G General] acegolfer:
I used handbrake to rip DVD in mpeg4 format (I believe I used H.264 codec with .m4v extension). DLNA streaming from PC to Epic works using allshare.
[Epic 4G General] zman519:
K lite Codec pack FTW

What OS are you running on the PC?

I have been using K Lite Codec Pack for years on XP, Win7 and a few Vista machines its my favorite codec pack, cccp codec pack is another good one to check out most people swear by one or the other.

Just as Masterface7 said its a codec thing on the target machine. DLNA (All share) has yet to fail to play any file i have thrown at it when playing to systems that are loaded up with all the codecs and are set up to play the same files local of there own HDD or from LAN.
[Epic 4G General] acegolfer:
I think OP is trying to do the opposite of what you described. He's trying to play PC files onto the phone. In other words, the PC is the source and the phone is the target.

Unfortunately, even if the file can be played natively on Epic, it may not be playable via allshare.
[Epic 4G General] zman519:
Mmm ic ya that's kinda sucky then. i have not tried to play many video files "On the Phone" But i would like to no the answer also if some one figures it out but i have a feeling we would need a new DLNA.akp :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G General] boominz28:
after searching the forum for my question this one sort of nailed it on the head, I have the same issue

Using allshare from my phone to play video files from my pc using the intel viiv media share I can see the video files but when try and open in my phone to lay the video files it says unspported file format. i record tv through my pc it can play it in windows media center and windows media player but will not play on my phone
[Epic 4G General] boominz28:
does anyone have an answer for this issue?
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
To make a note, All Share will not play any content that has DRM...
[Epic 4G General] zman519:
Maybe I missunderstood samsung but it seems to me that allshare only half works if u can't play files both directions. There always seems to be some video file that will not work but the fact that NO video files work makes me think that allshare sucks. Its to bad xbmc can't run on ARM chips

[Nook Color General] quietglow:
I'm guessing that the reason many apps (i.e. Twitter, Weatherbug etc)won't install has to do with missing location frameworks. In most of these cases, the app even has allowances for functioning without location services. I'm guessing that if this problem has been solved before it's going to be one of the other devices sans GPS which has been hacked (so Pandigital Novel, Cruz tablet etc). Has anyone seen anything along these line? I'm doing some hunting around now.
[Nook Color General] clockworx:
In Settings, there should be an option to use wireless networks for Location. Seemed to work fine on my Pandigital.
[Nook Color General] quietglow:
The NC has a modified settings panel and there's no location setting unfortunately.
[Nook Color General] clockworx:
Huh....well, I'll start looking into this once I get mine tonight as well.
[Nook Color General] quietglow:
It does appear to be the location services which were the problem, and this thread has a fix:

But does location services work?

I installed the suggested files and was able to install Google Latitude w/o problems. Problem is that location services is not working, and Latitude asks me to enable it via the device's settings. Of course B&N was kind enough to leave location services out of the modified settings page. Anyone have a solution for this?
[Nook Color General] ixampl:
You could try pulling settings.db (the same settings.db you have to change to enable nonmarket apps), and enable it there manually... then push it on the device again.
[Nook Color General] Ben74:
i tried this already. in the "secure" table in settings.db, i changed location_providers_allowed from gps to network. this had no apparent effect.

see http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.Secure.html
