How do i load mp4 videos of my son and family on my phone using the root menu? Where do i put them to go with the videos that i have already taken with my phone? Also will they play with the stock video player? I have my phone rooted with cognition and know some what, what i'm doin in the root menu of my phone, Any info or directions on this would be greatly appreciated. On a side note would this be the same method to install videos or movies to my phone, would that even work? thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geokhentix:
You can drop them anywhere on the /sdcard/ directory. Your pictures/videos that you already shot are in the /sdcard/DCIM/ directory. As for the stock video player, .mp4 is a very broad container. If it doesn't, there are plenty of free media players out there that will. (rock, act 1, vplayer, etc)

Recently I installed the Eternity 2 build003a Rom and it removed the Backup and Restore app. The problem is my most recent (and most important backup) is saved with that app. I tried reinstalling the app with root explorer, package installer, ADB shell but it won't let me install it. With the package installer it keeps saying "Application not installed!" and with the ADB shell it gives me this error:

C:\Android\Tools>adb install -r Backupandrestore.apk

486 KB/s (2386714 bytes in 4.794s)

pkg: /data/local/tmp/Backupandrestore.apk

I downloaded the APK from the Sony website so it should be compatible. I would like to know is there a way of forcefully installing an app? If not is there any other apps out there that can use the stock backup and restore app files to restore the phones data?

Hey,

This question has been asked a few times but with new roms comming out all the time I would like to ask again!

Currently I'm using baadnewz hd rom and the kernel that comes with it, using juice defended and setcpu, my phone will die by the time i go to sleep if it was at 100% when I wake up. This isn't good enough for me :/ I use my phone quite a bit.. Was looking for something a little better! :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jul644:
battery life

I use the latest stock rom with underclocking mod root and setcpu with some tweeks with sending around 200 texts 15 emails a couple tweets 1 hour talking and some doodle jump I get from six am to ten pm at 60% left.

What do you do on your phone playing games destroys battery life
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukyjay:
I am on OpenDesire now, it seems a lot better. But still, I throw it on charge and in 1 hour it will charge 10%, but off charge it will drain 10% in 1 hour. It just seems so pathetic. People brag about 3 days battery life with their phones.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borat38:
which eats up batt life more: games or surfing the net? I always thought it was the latter.

Also, what's the main difference between underclocking and undervolting? Won't underclocking mean a perpetually slower processing speed?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jul644:
battery

I can get two days before dying if I just email text and an hour of calling, but agian how do you use your phone what's eating up your battery?

And with set CPU I set it to 800mhz and when battery is below 35% I set it to 600

At 600 MHz I notice the browser it slower if I have more than one windows open

But the best is when I lock my phone the CPU scales down to 224mhz to 386mhz or something and that were I noticed the best battery advantage

games like angery birds destroys battery browsing is less consuming than calling.

Just to a quick Google servh on how to extend android battery life its pretty basic, keep brightness at 20 % Bluetooth and wifi off when not using use less Widgets and use advanced task manager
[Desire HD General] eyeofthetiger:
I have recently had some problems with some web pages force closing when browsing.

As an example I have been browsing on BBC sports I have clicked on the football latest scores and after a couple of seconds the application FCs. I then unchecked javascript on the settings and the page loads fine!

I have now been left with 3 options:

1) Look for a fix(if someone can help please)

2) Always browse with no javascript and therfore no flash enable websites.

3) accept that some websites will behave this way and continue.

Any suggestions please?

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZodiacPhoto:
Happy New Year everybody!

I bought my Streak from BestBuy with 1.6 installed.

The OTA 2.2 update supposed to be before the New Year, but my System Update still shows "No software updates available at this time."

What's going on here? Who (Dell or AT&T) is delaying the update, and, more importantly, why?

Are they working on rectifying earlier bugs before releasing the final USA version, or just lazy? Or the update takes too much data bandwidth, and AT&T is trying not to overload their system ;)

So, did anybody who bought Streak from BestBuy or Dell with 1.6 received the official update?

Best wishes in the New Year!

The official word from Dell was...

...December 2010:

http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/mobile-devices/f/3824/t/19353639.aspx

I wonder why they couldn't deliver - are there problems wit the current 2.2 update they are hoping to fix?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p51d007:
Just read the QDL-Repair tool tutorial, download and install the 309

version of 2.2 that comes with the QDL-Repair tool, then update to

the 318 version via the update. Takes longer to read & watch the video

than it did to actually update :rolleyes:

QDL repair tool video & download>> http://streakdroid.com/?page_id=92

Dell 2.2 318 update>> http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A121100

You'll obviously want to be on wi-fi when downloading...it's a 150 meg update.

The link will pop you right to the 318 update.

Unless you want the at&t version of the 2.2, personally, I think you would be better off with the non carrier version. The at&t version most likely won't have Bluetooth file transfer, wi-fi teathering and a few other features locked out, and also has all of the associated "value added apps" (bloat) that comes with having an at&t version of a rom.

The only stumbling block some have had, is getting the QDL tool & drivers to see the phone, if your OS is x64 windows 7.

I did the instructions TO THE LETTER, with my home & laptop version of x64 bit windows 7 and had absolutely not one issue.

You need to uninstall Dell PC Suite and download the newer Dell Mobile Sync from below

http://support.dell.com/support/dow...dateid=-1&formatid=-1&source=-1&fileid=432022

The sad thing about the new software is that it's a bloated POS (it is made by Nero after all) compared to the old PC suite, however it does work and it adds Wifi Sync with 2.2.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eastdeal:
Thanks a lot for the help! I installed Dell Mobile Sync but:

1) When I plugged streak Windows prompts me to install device driver (where can I find the driver?)

2) I then launched Mobile Sync but got "your mobile device requires the installation of updated hardware drivers...". After it took long time to update something I was finally able to sync with Outlook. But the sync of contacts is very slow (maybe through wifi instead of USB cable?).

So how can I fix the device driver issue? How do I know Nero is syncing through wifi or USB (how to configure it to use wifi?)? Thanks!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sukemecuke:
I ended up bricking my first streak through QDL, soooooo careful. I will say I used a different QDL tool that someone sent me a link to. So chances are the original one wouldn't have done it......who knows. Some folks have managed to brick their phones using QDL, so careful. Fortunately I was able to return my phone and get a new one since I just bought it. I'm going to hold out now on the official update. If the 12th comes and goes and nothing.......I'll start looking to get a microSD card reader in case I brick this one. This is to be my work phone, and currently can't get exchange natively. 2.2 will fix that. SO I've either got to have the official update OR need to manually do it. :mad:
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschaffer:
probably not Dell's fault this time

Well, it's not like Dell has ever had shoddy customer support, but it looks like AT&T is at fault here. After all, how many AT&T branded devices have 2.2 yet?

The rest of the world (with a few exceptions) has the Streak with 2.2.

So, instead of Dell, we should probably give AT&T a giant heartfelt "up yours" on this one.

Did you do any further update from the version QDl installed? I used the QDL tool to update my friends then manually flashed 309 and 318 to it so that it had the most current version. I would saw get those two builds and flash them just to make sure you are on the most current.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre51:
Go to Settings - > About Phone and look for your baseband version/OEM version.

Mine is GAUSB1A131800 Yours will probably be 305 instead of 318.

So if you are on 305 you can flash build 309 and 318 to get the most current official dell release or install DJ_Steve's build. If you need help with getting the official let me know. I can post links to download those files tomorrow morning if you can't find them on here. To flash them I just renamed the file to update.zip and put in on the root of the SD card and booted into recovery and flashed the update.zip file.

I haven't installed dj_steve's so i don't know the process for that.

Would someone be willing to walk me thru the process via one of the Messenger programs (Yahoo, MSN, AIM...)? I think once I do it, I will be much more comfortable in the future.
