[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthulion:
Its bad...as in anything else is waaaay better. I had an iPhone before this, and the mt4g don't even come close. First I thought it was the headphones, but plugged in a receiver it sounds like there's a blanket in front of the speakers.

I had a g2 afterwards, that was an improvement. Now I'm trying a Vibrant, which is better that the other 2, but still can't touch the iPhone when it comes to sound quality. That's weird, cause last time I checked the audio hardware on iPhones was made by Samsung.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArcticWolf91:
It sounds better than my iPod. Really pleasantly surprised as I didn't expect to use this as an iPod replacement, but with how great it sounds and the convenience of only carrying one device has me switch. I also like how you don't have to unlock the device to change the volume (the volume up/down buttons work even with the screen off) and I like how the lock screen shows the current song as well as pause, skip forward, and skip back when a song is playing. All in all I think its great.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
I think sound quality is awful unless you're on CM and able to use DSP.

On stock rom: Sound quality - 3, features - 8

CM Rom: Sound quality - 7, features - 9.

Does that help?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] student.driver:
I would also say this phone is at a 9 for sound quality, but I use PowerAMP (without any EQ settings) with my Etymotics or Sony earphones, along with my Sony MDR-V6 headphones. I've had the 3rd gen and 5th gen iPods, and this sounds at least as good as them (better, actually). I've had a variety of portable players (Sony and JVC portable CD players, and MP3 players back to my Diamond RIO PMP300) and I've found the G2 and myTouch 4G to be wonderful. I will say that there is a slight difference in sound quality between the stock Media Room app and PowerAMP, but I'm not sure why since I was under the impression PA used the stock CODECs for MP3s. I think PA will play FLAC though, if that helps.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthulion:
I really don't get all these people saying g the sound quality is awesome. Not trying to be a douche, but I am a musician and sound engineer, I found the quality of the audio playback on the mt4g to be awful.

If you pay attention to it, you'll hear a lot of white noise on the upper frequencies whenever there's audio playback. It actually comes up bout a second before the audio starts.

For the people saying it's better than an iPod, do a blind test through a receiver.

I'm glad to hear the sound improves with custom roms.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] student.driver:
The OP asked for opinions, and you've already stated yours. Negating the opinions of others does, in fact, start pushing you into "douche" territory. Maybe it's better to just let the other people in the audience (who may also just happen to be engineers and know pro audio people) state their opinions.

If you like, maybe he should state the expected noise floor of the surroundings, along with a specific range of support and any bias(es) he's looking for or against. Or maybe, just maybe, we should accept that this person is HERE looking for opinions (in this demographic) and not in the head-fi forums looking to hook this up to a tube amp with his favorite Grados. You know, just sayin'... ;)

Can some developer make a flashable mod to remove the damn camera lock. I hate when I use my camera and hit the lock button and throw it in my pocket only to discover 4 hours later that the screen was on and my battery is dead.

Thanks!
[Fascinate Android Development] tlogank:
I would actually love for someone to remove the camera disable at 15%....that annoys the crap out of me.

Yeah, not being able to take clutch pictures with low batt sucks.
[Fascinate Android Development] Cezar`:
What about a camera app that would take pics with power button and let you take pictures with less than 5% battery?

Head over to i9000 themes and apps . Is there somewhere
[Fascinate Android Development] taypotts:
Yeah.. but it wont work on our phone. It has to be modded a bit.
[Fascinate Android Development] tlogank:
This is EXACTLY 100% what I want. To remove the battery lock and to use the Power button to snap shots. I would love to know where this is for our phones.

[Fascinate Android Development] GizmoDroid:
It's pretty easy to get rid of the camera being disabled when there is low battery, I think I modified one line in the "AbstractCameraActivity.smali".

However, the camera lock issue involves a little more work. I was actually attempting to change the power button from locking it to it being the same as hitting the shutter button, but I was stubborn and didn't like the results. I had it working, but the code for it wasn't pretty enough for me :rolleyes:

[Nook Color General] foethalove:
As I have posted in a development thread about rooting..

Alright guys, I have a problem. And there is very little info about doing this on a Mac

I have created the autonooter2 sd card using terminal.

My nookcolor is powered off, sd card inserted, nook USB cable plugged in to nook and then computer. (nook symbol lights up on cord), my mac pops up and shows a RNDIS ethernet device

-1 st problem, It says on nookdevs that this RNDIS dialog will pop up and to ignore it...does that mean ignore it, leave it there or click cancel? I have tried ignoring for a while and then clicking cancel.

- It says both here on xda and there that when the autonooter is finished the nook should reboot itself..its been 10 mins this never happens??

any help is appreciated

edit:

alright I just unplugged the USB and turned on my nook and it brought me to the Android setup screen. I skipped the tutorial and sign in and checked both location boxes and then when I clicked continue the screen flashed and it threw me into the normal B&N interface and the nook color user guide automatically popped open and starts flipping pages rapidly. I can close out of the user guide but then it auto reopens :/

edit2: restarted , everything appears to be working alright except I cannot pull up a keyboard in any instance...searching store or through books

edit3: i have tried erasing and un registering my device. my nook is now unregistered. I have been trying to get rid of root. i have cleared data ( power+ volume + nook button) but I cannot factory reset using 8 reboot method.

My device is on, has NookColor settings under extras but I have no keyboard and cannot connect to wifi or re register..

Please.... help
[Nook Color General] doomstalk:
You should register your NC prior to rooting it. You can restore your nook to its fresh state by interrupting the reboot process 8 times or, using the Android Debug Bridge (instructions for enabling it here: nookdevs.com/NookColor_USB_ADB) by following these instructions: nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM. Once you're done with that, register your Nook and then follow the AutoNooter instructions (nookdevs.com/NookColor_Rooting). Note: autonooter will reboot by itself once it's done; don't interrupt it by restarting the nook by yourself!
[Nook Color General] foethalove:
Ok quick question..

I figured I could not do any more harm so I started the autonooter process over from start to finish remaking the sd card but this time on a PC.

Everything worked better, the nook auto restarted itself and I got the Nook Color Dev screen and then to the unlock screen. I unlocked, ready to do the next steps (skipping tutorial and skipping gmail sign in) but I was never prompted. I am just at the normal nook homescreen, I now have much more options in extra( superuser, email, etc) and also the soft keys but I still do not have a keyboard.

Since I did this autonootering from an unregistered device do I need to start completely over?

Thank you for your response
[Nook Color General] wvcachi:
It doesn't sound like you have anything resembling a paperweight, I'm sure you'll get it to where you want it.

Did you try the steps of signing in youtube then gmail, then market? If your only problem is a missing keyboard, that can easily be remedied. Get the apk of a keyboard that's known to be working (there's a thread in the NC section on the DroidX kb), and push it via adb as system/app/LatinIME.apk. Reboot, and you should have a keyboard.

You said you can't do the 8 failed boot attempts... Why not? All you have to do is power-down 8 times during boot (hold down power for about 10 seconds, then hold down again to power on... Repeat 8x).
[Nook Color General] Taser420:
Hey,

I'm kind of in the same position that you were originally in. My NC's firmware is 1.0.0. I used the guide on nookdevs.com, flashed my SD card w/ the proper image, inserted the card, plugged in the USB, and... over 30 mins and nothing.

What did you do once you were in this step to continue? Did you remove the SD card?

-Taser

edit:

wvcachi, that's actually exactly what I ended up doing, and it came right up - thank you!

Also, I ended up doing this (sorry, no linking allowed - nookdevs.com/Installing_the_1.0.1_update_on_a_rooted_NC), re-rooted, and the 1.0.1 root actualy did auto-reboot.

Thanks eveyone for your help, and OP for not getting too ticked I hijacked their thread :)
[Nook Color General] eggman618:
Ya same issue here, except now my nook is stuck at the giant n. It was responding to my adb shell commands to to the 8x reboot for the BootCnt. But after it did the update it still sits on the giant n. I'm not sure what is screwed up on mine. I wonder if the auto-nooter just messed up some how...

I was upgrading from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 to fix my wifi drop issues.

Edit: Just let the n sit there for a good 15 minutes. I've never been so happy to see that intro video with that girl showing you how to use the nook!

Will try to auto noot again...
[Nook Color General] wvcachi:
I've done auto-noot several times now, and it's never rebooted on its own. After a couple minutes of it doing its thing, I just unplugged it, held down power for 10 seconds to power off (it's on even though it doesn't look like it), removed the SD, then powered on. Everything was as expected after that, it just never rebooted on its own.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Mine from 1.0.1 behaves exactly like the wiki described for me. Ran with the screen off for about 45s and then rebooted and was good to go. I followed the post instructions to set up the account and everything went exactly as they described. Only difference was it seemed to me like the instructions duplicated themselves at one point, steps in had already done were listed.

Works great, but might should revise the steps of there are duplicate ones. If I remember or root again I might do it. Adding renaming the phone apps woukdvbe a good thing to do too.
[Nook Color General] KitF:
The version of Auto-nooter for 1.0.0 doesn't auto-reboot after it's done. You'll have to let it sit and reboot yourself.
[Nook Color General] doomstalk:
I strongly recommend you upgrade to 1.0.1 before you root anyway. It's more stable, and when you eventually upgrade, you'll have to wipe your nook to do it. Better to do it while you don't have anything on it.
[Nook Color General] foethalove:

[General Questions and Answers] BlackWhizz:
Hello,

Im getting a bit frustrated about this thing.

On my HTC Touch dual running the stock rom there is somekind of speeddail (when you hold 1 on the phone app it calls to the voicemail.

And thats the problem. When our cow milking robot calls. I answer, need to press 1 (to accept the message). But instead of sending the "1" to the milking robot it calls my voicemail and i cant answer the milking robot.

Anyway, is there a way to remove this? Delete is grayed out in the speeddail menu and i cant change the number of it.
[General Questions and Answers] geronco:
Unfortunately this is set by default in almost every modern phone that you can find. I would suggest going into settings, there's an option to enter your own number. On my phone, if I leave this blank, the 1 speed dial won't work. I'm not too sure if this will also be the case on your phone but you can give it a try

on a Samsung Galaxy S.
[Droid 2 General] MUNDO23:
Hi just wondering if theres a stock custom rom for my droid 2 thank u very much!!
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
Yeah, is called fission, go to the android development forums for the droid 2 and look for it, I have it installed on my droid 2 global and its wonderful
[Droid 2 General] MUNDO23:
Alright thanks is that the only one or theres more?
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
Well there's also gummyjar, its basically stock, but with a gingerbread theme and some extra eyecandy, if you want a fully stock system to build from, go with fission, otherwise you should go with gummyjar
[Droid 2 General] MUNDO23:
Yeah im just looking for the same stock rom it could themed as long as it has the same ui u know like the stock browser, lock screen, etc thank u guys but it seems to be several fission rom r they all the same?

ray
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
I don't know if gummyjar is based off of fission, it might be, idk, but they are very similar in many ways, so its just a matter of whether you want the eyecandy and little extras gummyjar offers or whether you want the completely stock android experience, you can always install the gingerbread theme on fission anyways.
[Droid 2 General] MUNDO23:
Ok as soon as I get a chance I will try the fission
[Droid 2 General] MUNDO23:
Yo rusty I think I didn't explain my self when i said stock I meant to say the stock rom of the Droid 2 u know with the motoblur
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
oh, well i believe the makers of fission are working on a version with blur called fused, although i dont see why you would want it, youre gonna have to wait though as its not released yet
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lumbard:
As title says, I dropped my phone (!! Gahh! Idiot!!) but it still works fine but the gorilla glass has shattered and is currently held in place to stop it falling apart (heheh, reminds me of the episode of the Simpsons where a TV in a shop had a feature called: Durable outer casing to prevent fall-apart) by a piece of Sellotape.

I have found chinese sellers on ebay selling the LCD screen assembly as a unit for £120 but it is unclear whether this includes the gorilla glass.

Does anyone have a similar story with a known resolution to my problem. Don't want to spend the £120 if it doesn't have the glass and bizzarely the seller has not responded to my numerous questions asking this very thing.

In anticipation, sad owner of even sadder looking streak.

Actually having looked closer on ebay there are other sellers that do describe it as with glass, but they are still around £120. What sites can they be bought for for $90 plus shipping? With the exchange rate that sounds much more reasonable... do they post to UK?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subvecto:

I have had an insurance claim for accidental damage accepted, however prior tio sending it off I thought I'd give Dell a ring and lo and behold they are going tio fix it or replace it free of charge! They said it was due to me being a valued customer and a one time only offer, but its definitely worth a shot as I've never had anything Dell before the streak.

Dell ALWAYS ask for service tag, in fact that is the first thing they ask when you call them. I'm gonna have to say that your streak won't be free anymore and it's gonna cost you about $150. But still $150 Streak aint that bad.
