Saludos Amigos.

I'm from Puerto Rico. I write in Spanish because it is not English, to understand the forums use the Google translator, but when I use Spanish to English will lose a lot of the meaning of the sentence. I hope you can help me understand a little more that the ROM in Android. T-Mobile I have a few days ago Galaxy Tab. I have long Roms changing my phone. I started with ATT Tilt, then a pro, then Pro 2, etc. Ice some things with the Vibrant, but did not understand much. But if you help me maybe I can help with anything, because I have some knowledge in electronics and communications.

In ODIN.

1-What is the PIT and what it does?

2-What is the PDA, I think it refers to the ROM as such it is the larger file, but I want to be sure.

3-modem is the same as the radio?

4 - What is the CSC and its use?

5 - What is the DUMP and what is its function?

I have the Euro version and runs great. I have tried several modems including the Original VIBRO, but it makes calls but you hear very low sound. Nor have I managed to get data, even if I have a data plan on my service. EURO I know that I just run and not 3G, but even E. Could anyone tell me which data plan from T-Mobile U.S. I have with my voice plan?

I think there are many questions, but believe me, this forum is my life. Sometimes just to reinstall some entertain ROM, jejejeje can answer in English, ahy no problem.

God bless you, really are geniuses.
[Galaxy Tab General] jnutz:
Could be wrong on some of these but here we go.

1. The PIT file contains partition information. I think.

2. PDA pretty much is the ROM.

3. Yes the modem is the same as the radio.

4. I have no idea what the CSC does. Sorry.

5. I have no idea what DUMP does either.

Right now T-Mobile is filtering the use of certain SIM cards based on the IMEI of the device. I don't know if this is just in certain areas or if they are filtering all service areas but in order to do it here in hell with a SIM card that is on a smart-phone plan you would need to change the IMEI of the device to make it avoid their filter.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] bankir:
I installed the Android with the below version:

Android 2.0.1 Eclair (kernel13 (Topaz/Rhodium-only) by Markinus, composed by Shadowline on January 8th 2010)

Everything runs properly and able to boot up, but I do not get the screen calibration which everyone says that we have to tap 5 points (similar with Windows). And my screen now is way off. i.e. to hit "I", I must hit "K" in the keyboard.

Reading from other forum, I have tried to delete the calibration.txt but then it doesn't get recreated. Now, I don't have any calibration.txt anymore.

My default.txt is:

set MTYPE 2293

set KERNEL zImage

#set FBDURINGBOOT 0

set initrd initrd.gz

#pwf dm.txt 0x8e0000 0x20000

#pwf smem.txt 0x01f00000 0x100000

#msmts_calib=0x376.0x3c1.0x6a.0x8a

set cmdline "msmts_calib=0x395.0x3d5.0x79.0xa0 msmvkeyb_toggle=off WiFi.mac=00:23:76:0C:35:AD lcd.density=240 mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480 no_console_suspend"

#mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480

boot

In summary:

- No calibration screen during the first boot up

- Deleted calibration.txt in attempt to recreate a new one, still no calibration screen

- Deleted data.img, no calibration screen, it goes straight to the screen where you press Android (green color) and on the bottom showing Emergency and Next

- Tried other value for msmts_calib= from another thread that reports to be near perfect for Topaz, but not working on mine.

- Deleted the line msmts_calib=0x395.0x3d5.0x79.0xa0 from the default.txt but it made it worst, I can't tap on anything.

[Epic 4G General] idlePulse:
My Epic's touchscreen has gone unresponsive. I had made the foolish mistake of updating (via zip method) from root 2.1 to 2.2. I rooted and then reset using clockwork (since nothing was working i.e. camera, media, etc.) and continued using the leaked Froyo.

Everything was great until last night. I had spilled a negligible amount of water on the touchscreen, and promptly wiped it off. Later that night, my touchscreen stopped working. I tried turning the phone on and off, but the touchscreen was still unresponsive. I tried restarting a few times, to no avail.

Then, suddenly, it was stuck at the Samsung boot screen. I guessed that the phone was bricked, so I flashed back to stock using Odin3. Touchscreen still doesn't work.

So... Did I screw up my phone with the water spilling (it was like 5 mg, collectively about the size of my thumbnail)?

WTH happened?

Also... wut do?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonie972:
I don't think everyone uses external SD card and the nexus will come Gingerbread and get the fastest updates from the big G.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allthrottle:
You want the nexus because it's new and just a hair better. It's the same reason everyone here wanted the g2 then mytouch 4g. It's "new" and "better". The vibrant has great hardware, nearly identical to the nexus, so you'd only be trading up for software and a slight facelift. Not worth it.

It's the new factor. You (and everyone else) will get over it in a month and be on to wanting whatever other new phone is out.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
You're partially correct. But the primary reason that people are interested in the Nexus S is that its a "Nexus" branded; therefore, it will always have the latest version of Android in a timely fashion because it is maintained by Google.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qreffie:
I was considering buying one outright myself but the vibrant is so similar devs may be able to port everything to the vibrant within a couple days or weeks. Plus next year there will likely be dual core phones that come out that are going to be more attractive. I do admit having direct Google support would be great, but I'm going to wait and see what the devs do after it comes out. It's not like the phone is going to disappear from existence a month from now.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scoobyracing03:
A facelift gone wrong IMO.

The lack of the SD card is bad with only 16g onboard. I came from a 32gb Iphone to the vibrant and quickly went out and bought a 16gb sd card to make up for the missing storage.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tarzanman:
I doubt you will be able to.

First off, the Nexus S is only available at Best Buy or from Google.

I went to T-mobile last week and they told me that only Best Buy will have the phone in their stores.

I have a guy waiting to buy my Vibrant off me if I want to sell it... but the loss of SD card storage space, and the extra $230 I would have to pay has me balking.

I doubt I will get one.

[Nook Color General] dsp9753:
Hey guys,

I was thinking about buying a Nook color but I had one question.

Will the Nook Color be able to play 720p mkv files? With subtitles? I noticed that the archos 70 can play 720p mkv files and It seems to me the cpu is similar in both units.

I am pretty uninformed about this topic so I was hoping if anyone could enlighten me? I did not want false expectations that one day someone will be able to get it to work on the Nook Color.

Btw I know that Nook Color can not play it natively, but since the archos 70 I was wondering if the Nook Color could 2 in the future?

Thanks for your help!
[Nook Color General] VillainousVivi:
is there an app?

At the moment, I don't believe the nook will play .mkv files without rooting it. I haven't rooted mine yet (waiting to see if 2.2 really does come out next month and what changes it brings, first) so can't say if there is an app that will play them.

I would think that it could, as long as the necessary app is installed and the codecs are available. The hardware seems like it would be perfectly capable of playing a 720p file, no matter the format, it would just be squished down to the correct resolution of 600 (or smaller depending on ratio).
[Nook Color General] Baka no Kami:
Don't know about 720p, but as long as the video and audio streams are something the NC recognizes it should play an MKV (h.264, mp4 for video, aac or mp3 for audio). Although I had much better luck with just straight up mp4 files.

The built in player only even showed subtitles if they were hardcoded to the video.
[Nook Color General] ws6kid:

Because the nook's screen is 600 pixels so 720 would be the smallest "standard" size that doesn't have to be up-converted.

I play mkv files on my HTC Desire - Rockplayer and others all stuttered and displayed a blocky effect.

[Nook Color General] chisleu:
The chip that handles video on the NC wants to play video smaller than 854x480.

Any video larger than that will not go through the hardware accelerator.

I have a thread where I attached a handbrake preset for the NC.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=992214

If you use that preset, you have to set the video size yourself (defaults to original size)

Use the original size if it is smaller than 854x480. If it is larger (like 720p would be) then set it to 854 width with "Keep Aspect Ratio" and the video file that handbrake puts out will be nook hardware accelerated.

Also, MoboPlayer is much better than the alternatives as far as the player itself goes.
[Nook Color General] reynart:
I read entire thread but I really want to know why archos 70 or 101 (with same GPU!) manages to play 720p hardware accelerated.
[Nook Color General] chisleu:
Interesting. I do not know, except that I do know that 854x480 is the max size for hardware acceleration and anything larger will play in software. If you try to play anything higher in hardware, it crashes.

(I use audio stripped files for testing on CM7 w/ video enabled.)

Maybe froyo would be different.
[Nook Color General] chisleu:
720p is 1280x720. It would have to be down-converted. Anything under that plays well in hardware accel (once they fix the audio bug causing studdering.)

[Nook Color General] muzzy996:
Well it is what it is, a product intended by B&N to be a color e-reader that just happens to be built upon android 2.1 and is hackable. Whatever limitations it may have beyond the intended use are not flaws. Want 720p video playback? Look elsewhere. We needn't belittle the NC for not keeping up with other pieces of hardware it was never intended to compete with, especially products selling for twice the price or more.

I for one am very happy with the NC even with the video playback ceiling. It's not my intent to sit for two hours watching a movie on this thing on a regular basis. It plays XVID encoded TV show avi files downloaded as torrents just fine using MoboPlayer so it suits me just fine. The few movies I carry around I just re-encode into the supported format.

GPU has nothing to do with video decoding, the thing's called DSP(Digital Signal processor).

[Nook Color General] Solandri:
I tested a bunch of players against regular files and some problematic mp4 and mkv files (converted with handbrake using features not supported by the NC's hardware accelerated video decode). Rockplayer was actually the worst performing of all the players, stuttering badly on files that others played with no problem. I don't really understand why it's so popular. I did not try MoboPlayer or Vital Player - this thread is the first time I've heard of them.

Vplayer had the best quality. If you go into its settings, there's an option for "high quality" mode. This seems to supplement the hardware acceleration with software decode for features the hardware doesn't support. In this mode, Vplayer was able to flawlessly play files other players refused to play at all because they were encoded with features the hardware didn't support. There might have been some slowdown in the playback speed -it was hard to tell with the videos I was using. But flawless picture + slowdown is better than refusing to play or playing with decode errors.

I did not try any 720p files. All the files I tried were 480p. This thread has made me curious if Vplayer's "high quality" mode will let you play a 720p file even though the NC's hardware doesn't support it.
[Nook Color General] chisleu:
Unless it walks all over MoboPlayer (which I find to be great) then it won't cut it. I can't even a 1:1 video (1024x600) to play flawlessly in software.

854x480 is about as big as I can go in software, and I get much better results with 720x480. Going to try out VPlayer now.

EDIT: No dice. I still get audio out of sync with VPlayer. It's a problem on big, super fast desktops. Our little risk, without the benefits of hardware accel is going to have trouble keeping audio in sync with modern formats. Interesting that VPlayer has a setting for buffer size and it defaults to 0. I turned it up to 1 meg and WOW what a long ass delay opening a file. 128 is quick, 256 is bearable. Software decoding in high quality is not ok. It's dropping frames pretty hard. Not as bad as the hardware accel bug, but it's there.

On high speed, it is better but even a 256K buffer isn't enough to keep the audio from quickly falling out of sync. I like MoboPlayer better.

I can't wait for the hardware accel to get straightened out.
[Nook Color General] Machine_man:
Just tried a 720p anime file on MoboPlayer.

It was very laggy at first and took about 10 seconds or so for the audio to sync with the video, but once it did there was little to no jitter. I was quite impressed as RockPlayer Lite couldn't even play it in 5FPS.

Also, scrolling through the video is fine and the audio syncs with the video instantly and there's no jitter.

I'm using a NC rooted with CM7 RC2 with tablet tweakes.
