Has anyone got to record some 720p video without being so choppy and horrible looking? I tried many options and nothing looks even close to 720p. Everything looks choppy and grainy. When I use mediainfo for the file the highest resolution its taking is 640x480 and I have the setting set to 720p. What setting are you using with your streak that will give you some decent video. By the way the lighting in my room was bright. Another bug I might have found is when I chose custom in the quality settings the app freezes when I hit record. Then I will have to power down the phone to shut it down.
[Streak 5 General] Freakernoid:
Hmm, i personally feel that the streak video recording for 720p was pretty good, it may not be the best quality but it doesn't seem that bad as you describe.

Having read your last sentence, i realized that you have not apply the 720p fix from Stephen that why you can't choose custom and record in true 720p....

This fix has been since 146

Here's the fix and you need to flash with fastboot

Flash this using the fastboot command fastboot -i 0x413c flash dsp1 dsp1.mbn

[Streak 5 General] borijess:
I flashed this file. I tried the video in 720P and still looks horrible very blocky.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Anyone else have any ideas?
[Streak 5 General] Freakernoid:
So what's your setting,

Mine is

Video quality:720p

Video Encorder:MPEG4

And set to custom
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
720p,mpeg4 set to high.

Update: I just set it to custom now its recording in 720p. Thanks for your help. What do u set the other settings to? I posted a pick of my results of my vid. The video still doesnt look that great but much better than before. I expected more from 720p video. Check out my results do they look normal. Thought the fps was rather low. Is this normal?
[Streak 5 General] Spectre51:
I've never been able to get anything higher than 18 fps and that was in the middle of the day, nice and sunny. The fps is always low.

[Streak 5 General] bartsplanet:
I recorded a video and got about 6.7 fps as well. For the first time, at least. While stopping that recording my video camera FC'd and now I can't get it to give me 720 any more no matter what I do. I've tried reflashing to no avail :(
[Streak 5 General] bartsplanet:
I take that back. I reset the settings to default and now I can do 30-seconds of 720p again. That'll do for tonight, I'll take my real camera I guess. Suckish tho :(

then put ur mobile phone in USB debugging mode.

HERE is a video on how to root and install a custom recovery on the motorola defy.

You need to have adb installed here's a video here on how to do that.

And here is the link to everything you need.

I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone I'm just providing a video.

All thanks should go to tenfar for making the recovery and sorensiim for making a guide. I basically just recorded what he wrote.

side note you don't need to use the android sdk to install z4root or the recovery apks you can just put them on your sdcard and install from there.

here's a update video on installing the motorola usb/adb drivers in ubuntu it goes with this video
[Defy Android Development] CleanSweep93:
Are you aware z4root works? I didn't need adb at all...

yeah I used it in the video :confused: I just used adb to install it instead of putting it on the sdcard and installing it. It gets users familiar with adb which they will need in the future.

So from reading a lot on xda I have successfully rooted my galaxy GT-i9000M phone using the SuperOneClick app. I confirmed it by locating the superuser icon in my apps and running lagfix and quandrant bench mark tests.

What rom(s) would be best or recommended for my rooted froyo 2.2 phone?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcarr622:
There is no best ROM. Read around and see what people like, and try then for your self :)

Personally Docs is my favorite. His new v7 base and online kitchen are awesome.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splish2010:
I agree with Chambo. You need to have a look around and find what's best for you. If you click the link in my signature this will give you access to a list of custom I9000 ROMs, generally with comprehensive flashing instructions. As a beginner, I would recommend using either DocRambone's ROM or Darky's ROM, as the instructions are as clear as can be.

Enjoy. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jscurtu:
Thats true... there is no best rom..

But dont forget to backup your /efs folder before playing around, leave one copy on your phone and put another one on your computer.. That could be a lifesaver!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkyG82:
Its true that there is no 'best' rom. I prefer ultimate. Have also tried darkys and tayutamas (although its a bit outdated now.

Id say the best plan of action is root (done), get clockwork mod running and then you can flash roms from there.

There are various ways to get cwm so search xda to figure it out.

As you're not that experienced id steer clear of using programs like odin.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slifer315:
yes you can just flash the i9000 rom you want, but after it boots up at least once, you'll have to flash a reoriented kernel to fix certain problems, including the incorrect screen orientation. there are a few of such clearly labeled kernels in the development forum, so take your pick. simple instructions: one-click flash the stock rom, boot normally, flash clockwordmod recovery, factory reset within clockwordmod recovery, flash your i9000 rom of choice, allow the phone to boot completely and establish a data connection, boot to recovery, flash a reoriented kernel of your choosing, boot normally and enjoy. hope this helps!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MnemonicSyntax:
Hey guys, new to Android and G2, my G2 just arrived today and I'm in the swing of things. Been doing some app picking up on the Market and it's really just awesome.

A few questions though.

What's with Browser? It lets me select a homepage but when it opens, the Homepage doesn't load. Instead it's the last page I visited. Not a fan of that.

What's the best Video Player out there? I'm using RockPlayer, it's great, but I'd like to lose the ads. If there's no alternative, I wouldn't mind paying the ten bucks, but... if I can avoid this, I'd rather do that.

Also, the Music Player is okay, but I can't seem to get the music to stop. I can pause it, but it doesn't just close out completely.

Thanks for your help, sorry about the noobish questions, but please go easy on me, I'm new -.-
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazz9690:
The browser goes to the last page visited because you haven't closed out of the browser completely. You might have just pressed home to get out of the browser, unless you pressed back several times to go to the original page from all the pages that you have viewed, then it will finally go back to the home screens. It will go to the new home page if you press menu, windows, and new window.

I don't have a problem with the stock video player, so I have been using that.

Also, I'm not sure since I don't have a stock rom, but on CM6, if you hold the back button, it forces the apps to close out. You could give that a shot.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashermaster:
The question 1 & 3 are the same actually. The browser and the player still runs in the background, like u just minimize them. They are not closed yet.

To close them the simplest way is to install a thread killer software like ES series or some others.

Q2, I found no better video player yet@@

There are a ton of video players in the market. I've tried the ones that seem to be most commonly used by XDA folks: ArcMedia, Rockplayer and vplayer. Rockplayer is my favorite so far. It is able to play every video I've tried (might have to toggle hardware decoding to play a few) and has the most usable interface of those I've tried.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MnemonicSyntax:
Is that a function somewhere? Or is that just on the Home Screen and applies to all Apps?

I'm not really trying to stop anything from running, as opposed to having a certain webpage open everytime I open the Browser and no music playing when I open up Music. For those two Apps, I don't want to be where I "left off."

Also, I did root it and put on CM 6.1.1. For the first time doing something like this, I think it went rather well.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Android decides for itself whether to leave an app running when you move away from it, or whether to close it. It usually does a pretty good job.

Most people want the browser to stay at the page they were using so they can go straight back to it. There are task killer apps for Android but it's normally recommended that you stay away from these, since they can cause their own problems.

Sent from my HTC Desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MnemonicSyntax:
Right, I'm not looking to close any apps really. I guess it'd be nice to be able to close an app out, say a game, Browser or Music, but only if you wanted to. If you instead just pressed Home, those apps would stay open so you can go back to them later. But if you were finished with say, surfing the web, you could exit out, it would take you Home like normal.

I don't know, I understand totally about Android and it's ability to multi-task. I'm not really even looking to close things out completely, but if that's the distinction between opening an App from where you last had it to opening an App to it's "home screen" then so be it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Yeah, it's kind of a different mentality. Pressing the phone's home button is really more of a "show desktop" than an exit. This means a better user experience for the average user though (since as was said before, everything is back to the way they last had it and the programs will load faster since they weren't removed from memory to begin with). Whenever I want to leave the browser on its home screen, I simply close all of its windows before leaving the app (just like opening a new window, closing the last open one will make it go to the home page).

With a custom rom, you can do more of what you are saying. I know with CM, you can assign a long press of the back button to exit out of the foreground program (so now pressing home will leave the app running and long-pressing back will completely exit out of it). I believe the MIUI rom allows that as well. Alternatively, you can use a task manager to do the same thing (though maybe not as conveniently---not sure if any of the task managers have a similar shortcut key feature).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MnemonicSyntax:
Thanks. This is what I was looking for. I have Cyrogen 6.1.1 on my phone now. Could I ask for some assistance in setting up the long press of the back key? Thanks much!

Sure. It's under Settings->Applications->Development. The last option in the list.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MnemonicSyntax:
Thanks again so much Quinn. I am very happy now! Just a few more questions and I think I'll be good.

1) I'd like to be able to set my Quickkeys to Back, Foward, and Home. Is there a way to do this, preferably without an App? If not, at least a way to clear out the Quickkeys area.

2) What does the Google App package come with exactly?

3) How do I uninstall some of the Apps like Twitter and Facebook? I don't see a way to uninstall those the normal way.

Thanks for all the help!
