[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] python08:
Hi everyone,

I built Gingerbread from latest AOSP source. All is working except as usual the Video Recording..

But there's a strange issue that other people I know also have : no audio recording... very strange because nothing anormal in the logcat... voiceVolume is set to 0 during call but it's the same thing on other ROMs with audio working...

Have you an idea ? Is there a secret that only devs know ?

Thanks in advance,

Renan.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] python08:
No idea at all ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] 001mic:
I'm guessing (hoping?) that the current WP7 solution for transmitting stuff on and from the phone can not be the final concept. Its fine for now, as a workaround to send e.g. word and pdfs files per email onto your phone and vice versa, but forever? There must be a better solution.

I think the best solution is either through zune or through a dedicated folder plus mass storage mode.

An other program (and I include outlook) is a really bad idea in my opinion because users don't want to open more than one program to sync their phones.

Zune is a little bit awkward because its the dedicated Music/ Pictures/ Vids Part of your Phone. If everything would be synced through zune it would break with the separation that Microsoft build with the different hubs.

What do you think - where will Microsoft go with this topic? And does anybody know how Apple solved this with their iPhones?
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
The fastest way would be Zune and Bluetooth send/receive.

It's necessary to have it to stay with the platform.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jeffgeno:
Skydrive and Mesh is almost certainly where they're headed. I'd be extremely surprised if Zune ever supported Office file transfers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
The cloud, nothing is faster than the cloud.

Edit a file on your desktop and it updates on all devices.

Need to share a file? Just share the link.

Cloud synchronization will be the norm.

.....edit...

Jeffgeno beat me to it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] iwantnokia:
nothing is faster than cloud??? crazy.... upload to cloud and download to phone or upload direct from PC to phone.. which faster??? and safety??? upload confidential file to skydrive??? more crazy.....
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
We need a place to sync outlook files but aside from that what other files do you want on your device.... they're not necessary... I dont really wanna set up this whole cloud business :-p
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Cloud is great but in many scenarios IDIOTIC.

To put a doc on my phone I need 2 devices with connection - PC and phone. Sick!

And it's the first time I can't send anything by bluetooth to any other dumphone or phone without any data transfer. Sick too.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
Right, let's just clear this up shall we?

Currently there are several methods of getting a file such as an Excel spreadsheet onto your phone.

1. Email it to yourself, then open and save the attachment on your phone.

2. Use the Live Mesh sync included with Windows Essentials to sync your excel files to Skydrive. Then navigate to your Skydrive on your phone and download the file(s) you need from there to your phone.

3. Download and run one of the many small free Webserver apps on your PC. then you can serve your files over your home network and download them to your phone just by browsing to your mini website.

I don't use 1, I tend to use 2 and occasionally 3 as some apps like 7Pass (a password manager) use web servers to obtain the (in this case a password) file from your PC.

The way forward will actually, IMHO be 2. But instead of navigating to your skydrive in a browser, it will become a native function, just like it is now with OneNote. The kind of instant two-way sync that OneNote has will be replicated for Word, Excel and Powerpoint, and possibly for any other types of file as well, which will hopefully allow any app to obtain its own filetype over Skydrive and indeed sync with it.

I'm optimistic this will happen in the update coming soon, but it might wait until the fall.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
I think this is the best way to go and hope microsoft will do it like that sooner or later.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
I understand that and it's a valid point.

I too would like to have the possibility to sync files _without_ having any network connection because sometimes there simply is no network or you're in a foreign country...So hopefully there will be a way microsoft makes this possible.

But besides of that, syncing over cloud is important for me at least as long as i am at home or something.
[Windows Phone 7 General] rsacipher:
I use a combination of email, DropBox and Skydrive, I would love to have the ability to sync directly with Outlook since my company doesn't have Exchange or if they had a sync tool like Google that will update your calendar through the cloud.

On a side note how do you save a PDF that I emailed to myself? I tried to open and save as and it doesn't give me that option.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Once you open it it's automatically saved to the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
Er, if there's no network connection or you're in a foreign country, then you would just be using the locally cached copy of the file, until you either returned home or entered an area with coverage, at which point your phone would sync up.

The point is, your phone would be syncing on-the-fly whenever it could, and using local cache whenever it couldn't sync. Strikes me as the best of both worlds.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kabumm:
Okay, thanks for explaining. I didn't know that. :)

Well then it's good news. Except you will have to stop your phone from syncing when roaming. But i assume, that is possible? (couldnt test it out)
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I'm not offended. I don't think no one else is either.

Its silly that they provide you with a cord for media, but that same cord is useless for one of the other touted features.

[Windows Phone 7 General] krjcook:
Your talking about from phone to PC right? I think MS should give an option to allow an adjustable amount of your phone's memory to be used for USB mass storage functionality. Like make a slide saying, Maybe I want 2GB available, or maybe 20mb. You know to copy file formats WP7 supports. Atleast for what you can't sync via Zune Desktop software.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] bobzx:
I installed Google Voice Search v 2.1.1 on my fresh new wildpuzzle rom.

Now, as much as I try, it doesn't recognize my voice. Even though my accent (Indian) is not that bad....still??? :confused:

I heard about personalized voice from Google, but couldn't find that option in settings. Is it available only in US?

Any suggestions (apart from practicing US accent) is welcome! :D
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] WillKennerley:
I have an English (non US English) accent and it seems to work for me.

I'm not certain about search but for voice actions you must change your language setting to 'English (generic)' from English (***). The setting can be found under Voice input and output settings> voice recogniser settings> select English (generic)

Give it a try and lets hear about the results.

I used it for about five minutes and it lagged the heck out of my phone. Like, my phone became nearly unusable. A lot of people like it though, so apparently I'm an exceptional case.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] clubtech:
Strange it is one of the only Live wallpapers that does not cause the phone to lag.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] foxehkins:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 3Shirts:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ajftl:
Yea u need a phone with cojones to run this. Not every phone would run it smooth. I tried it on my evo and scrolling was terrible ...on my NS it doesn't affect anything. It runs like if Im not running a live wallpaper ..this phone is crazy or gingerbread? Or the hummingbird CPU? Or wtf? Lol
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 3Shirts:
Same here. I tried it on my Nexus One and although it was still perfectly usable there was a noticable lag to the scrolling and app drawer. The gpu on the S makes a lot of difference I think.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zorak950:
I have a Nexus S. Stock 2.3.1 unrooted. I guess I should have mentioned that, I just didn't bother since it's in the Nexus S forum. >.>

Touch effects, like touch the screen, and a new stream shoots out or something like that (sort of like the nexus LWP)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] fchipm:
Sure is pretty. And smooth. But a little busy for me. Am I missing it or is there not a way to customize colors? Would love just white particles.

touch effects would be a real burner...but the LWP is young, maybe theyre adding it...email the devs to force ^^
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] konman795:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footballpics.info:
hey i rooted my nexus s and installed clockworkmod 3.0.0.0

i have installed rommanager 3.0.0.2

when i open the rommanager it says that there is a update to version 3.0.0.5

i tap on install after a wile it says that is installed correct

BUT

when i boot into recovery ... it dont work ... i boot the nexus s again an step back to clockwork 3.0.0.0 an i can boot to the recovery ...

so what is wrong?????

thx
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
you may just have to install CWM manually like you first did
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footballpics.info:
ok ok ... i will do that ... thx for the hint

BUT

what for is the updatefunction in the rommanager then if it is not working???
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
You could probably flash it from fastboot, but the OP is correct, the 3.0.0.5 update "breaks" ROM Mgr and CWM.

With 3.0.0.0 you can open ROM Mgr, then select Reboot To Recovery, and the phone will quickly reboot into CWM recovery.

Upgrade to 3.0.0.5 and when you select Reboot To Recovery, the phone gets stuck on the white Google on black background screen. A battery pull is required.

Downgrade to 3.0.0.0 and the expected behavior returns.

Seems to be a bug to me with 3.0.0.5. Need to let koush know.

To the original poster, you're aware that if you're on Android 2.3.1 that any fresh normal boot of the phone restores the stock recovery to the device unless you remove/rename the appropriate script in the /etc folder, right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footballpics.info:
i have Android 2.3.1

which file i have to remove/reneame in dhe "/etc" folder?

is this different to the way to update the clockwork as on the HTC Desire?

thx
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
/etc/install-recovery.sh

Be aware there are some who think it's risky. I'd advise reading this thread before proceeding, at least the last few pages of it.

I'd also be leary of messing with the recovery until you're sure you're able to get into at least CWM to make fixes if needed (e.g., have CWM 3.0.0.0 working).

Also, I just went to the Market, found Rom Manager (Premium) and scrolled down to the email the author link and sent a bug report. I'm not encouraging spamming him with complaints, but those anxious for a fix might want to report the bug as well if they have it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footballpics.info:
i installed Clockwork again from: http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html (Nexus S 3.0.0.5)

an installed it manualy with: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

after taht i loaded the recovery and it told me that i have 3.0.0.5

rommanager told me i have 3.0.0.0 and there is a update for me *g*

but when i tryed to reboot an go to the recovery again its not possible ... i got an error and had to hardboot - its possible to load android ...

so now ... whats the problem ... i downloaded the right CW and installed it like i did 1st. time ...

i read the link you gave me - found that:

That's all there is to it. It's that simple. Root explorer is a file explorer with root access. When you browse to the file, click the button to enable read-write access in root explorer, and then long press on the filename and rename it.

when i have 3.0.0.0 as recovery and i reboot and then reboot to recovery anything is working i kan go to the recovery menue - i have root rights and i can install what i want .. so what is set back with this "bootscript"?

for me everything sounds a little bit wierd ... i am sorry ...

thx

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luxferro:
My 3.0.0.5 recovery wasn't there as well. I reflashed it in Rom Manager, and then it worked.

Rom Manager had a problem on Droid 1, where you had to flash the recovery a couple times. I'm hoping that bug doesn't apply to Nexus S as well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] footballpics.info:
so now its not possible to boot into the recovery ... its 3.0.0.0 or 3.0.0.5 ...

I found numerous threads about this by searching, but no solution. Surely there's a way to disable the slide lock mechanism so that the phone goes straight to pattern lock...? I found widgets that will remove both, but not just the slide one. I'd prefer to do this without root, but also would be interested in how to do it if root is the only method.

CM 7 has the pattern lock screen with no slide to unlock. You just press the unlock button on the top of the phone, and it goes straight to the pattern unlock screen. You do the pattern, and the phone is unlocked.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tina333:
You may find you need to wipe cache and dalvik cache but no need to do a full wipe. You need to either freeze "market updater" using titanium backup or rename it in root explorer (system/apps) also delete the current market app which is listed as "vending" if you want a different version. The just flash the market version you want then run it and finally flash the colour mod you want :D

Now that Android can be installed from NAND, I had assumed that the problem with the screen only displaying 65k colors would be fixed. It still isn't, is there a known way to fix it or any progress being made to fix it? At the very least, is it known what the issue is? I thought it was a problem with WM utilizing only 65k of the screen and that carried over to android when it was run over WM, but now that WM is eliminated that's obviously not it. Anyone know?

I hope someone sheds some light on this, gradients look awful on my screen.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ShotSkydiver:
Seriously, it's the only thing holding me back from using this phone full-time. You can see a great example of it in the widgets.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ntollemache:
I agree, widgets look terrible, specifically news and weather widgets (genie.apk), power control, etc (anything with the black gradient background).

However, they only look bad on some launchers (on launcher pro, for example, with high quality scrolling turned on, widgets look exactly how they are meant to look - somehow launcher pro manages to 'smooth' the gradient).

I think this should be made a priority as the banding is very visible in many apps, and especially when watching videos on the device. It is very noticeable in the new gingerbread ROMs, which make use of more subtle gradients (take the notifications bar, the phone application for example) - fixing this issue would bring android on the HD2 up to a whole new level!

I'm going to do some digging and see what I can find...

But isnt that always MS's way of looking at things, being conservative opposed to using the capabilities? MS has never used anything to its fullest capacity, they are always on the reserved side so to them less means better compatibility and less issues.
