and im telling you your options. android does not have a 1st party video chat option...only 3rd parties...and so far the best lightweight vid chat app is tango...when you call them,it'll be just like a voice call thru data and there's a button on the screen to activate video chat.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kewlguy:
You have a inbuilt option for making a video call directly over the network instead of IM networks. Have used it on my Galaxy S. Again the service has to be enabled by the operator.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gizon:
hey

i'm trying to find a solution for a problem with the FM app volume.

the lowest volume is too high !!

ok so I've done my research and the problem is that the volume levels we change is linear and the actual change is by a logarithmic table.

bottom line -

the change from level 1 to 2 is much much bigger than from level 9 to 10.

now how do we fix this?

windows has the same problem and a nice dude wrote a script that rebuilds the table with a better curve. i found the part that holds the table in android source code and i need ur help to import the fixed table.

it's just copy and paste! i'm not a dev so im not sure what values are correct.

here is the scripts that creates the table (no download needed)

((XDA WONT LET ME POST LINKS LOL))

google " logarithmic volume control curve generator"

its the first link.

here is the table in android source code:

Hey guys I just unlocked my phone using that galaxy s unlock app that was just created (thanks dev). I'm with rogers and tried a Bell SIM. Phone calls and sms worked fine and the service provider changed to Bell. I encountered a problem when trying to access the internet via 3G and it didn't work.. The 3G symbol was in my notification bar, and all other phone functions worked, anyone know a potential problem? Thanks
[Captivate General] peachpuff:
You need to input bell's apn settings before you can use its internet, do a search on google for them.

[Fascinate General] Rick ross is boss:
Hey everyone I just recently rooted my phone and I'm new to the while roms and flashing roms. Can someone give me a breakdown on how and what I should use to flash roms. My friend told me its risky business
[Fascinate General] dustinface:
Look in the sticky on this forum "Fascinate Sticky Roll-Up Thread **Check this thread BEFORE posting**"

It has all the links and info you need to get started.

You're going to need ROM manager and cwm installed.

P.s. for future reference this kind of post belongs in "general" not "development" :)
[Fascinate General] dcow90:
1. You need ROM Manager. It can be downloaded from the market. Free or paid both work.

2. Use ROM Manager to install the ClockWorkMod recovery. NOTE: after you install the recovery, there will be something named update.zip on the root of your sd card. Don't **** with that..

After you have CwM (as you'll see it called, and not to be confused with CM -- or CyanogenMod) you can 'flash' ROM or kernels (or anything else) via update_packages.zip. You find the package you want, put it on the root of your sd card, and then use ROM Manager to reboot into recovery.

You can put things on your sd card by simply mounting it on your pc and dragging the file over. This may also be a good time to download the android sdk, or at least adb (android debug bridge) and install it and get it working. This is strongly recommended as it can save your ass. For this to work you must also enable usb debugging under Applications (strangely) then Development in your settings menu.

Finally, I strongly recommend the voodoo lagfix. It makes your applications load faster and puts a permanent CwM recovery on your device. This means you can boot into a useful recovery just by holding both volume buttons and the power button. Alternatively, if you have adb set up you can type "adb reboot recovery"

This is the general outline of things. It is safe so long as you read everything 3 times over before you get greedy and start messing with your phone and most importantly, don't do something if you don't know what it's going to do..

All of this is documented on this site and in these forums for get digging through the stickies!!
[Fascinate General] Rick ross is boss:
Sweet thanks. How exactly do you put on the the voodoo lag fix and where can I get it cause I have seen a ton different voodoo kernals
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
The Voodoo lag fix is installed automatically when you flash any Voodoo kernel. Just make sure you flash a Voodoo 5 kernel, not an old version 4 one, as those have issues. I would recommend one from Adrynalyne or jt1134, which can be found in the dev forum.

Posted from my DL09 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate General] Kevin Gossett:
You will also need to flash CWM using Odin. Flashing through ROM manager alone won't install
[Fascinate General] Rick ross is boss:
I think that's why it hasn't been working then cause I haven't flashed through odin I tried that jt voodoo kernal and it kept on failing when i attempted to flash it
[Nook Color General] vap0rxt:
I'd like every book I side load to show with cover on each shelf. I've been playing around with Calibre and the metadata setting, converting from epub to epub and I cant seem to get it right. It seems hit or miss to which covers show.

So what I'm asking is there a standard practice to convert to a hassle free format?
[Nook Color General] svennn:
I get all my covers using Caliber and epub. It may have to do with how you edit the metadata. What are you doing? I download the metadata based off ISBM then search for a cover.
[Nook Color General] ewong90:
Sometimes you have to convert the ones that don't show up to Mobi first and then ePub.

Aldiko never has a problem showing the book cover, I highly recommend it.
[Nook Color General] shawn605:
I load every file in Calibre.. make sure the cover shows in Calibre, then I convert it to epub (even if it started as an epub)... I should also note that my export setting is set to NookColor. Then I LOAD it in Sigil, and SAVE it. That seems to restructure some of them (a little cleaner).

Then I convert it again in Calibre, and I have no cover issues with the NookColor.

I read this from another thread, and it's worked flawlessly since.
[Nook Color General] vap0rxt:
Thanks, I'm liking this App. I don't know why the default B&N Book reader doesn't allow you to use as many colors for pages. I like a black background with grey text for some reason. Maybe because I think it'll help battery life or something.

Thanks to everyone that commented also, I'll look into those til I find the sweet spot. I'll be reading on the NC for quite some time. Four books read since Christmas. :)
[Nook Color General] vap0rxt:
I think I tried every way I thought possible. Even as far as searching down the covers online and adding them manually. Then proceeding to convert to epub again.

Curious if having the ISBN inputted is the key. I'll have to tinker some more.
[Droid X Android Development] andyandy6464:
UPDATED - NOW INCLUDES HOTFILE AND DROPBOX LINKS

I wasn't sure whether to put this in development or themes, seeing as it's neither...

Anyway, I just installed ApeX 1.3.1 for my Droid X and I love it.

However, I did not love the transitions that fabolous put into the ROM.

Also, after I Installed the battery percents (From fabolous's Goodies .zip), I decided they were difficult to read and needed a black outline.

So, attached to this post you will find 3 zip files, each that are slightly different. These .zip files are the same as the ApeX goodies zip that can be found with the ROM, except I edited the Framework-res.apk file to include the stock Android animations (links 1 and 2) and to include battery percents inside the battery icon with a black outline on the percent (links 1 and 3). Also included is appWidgetPicker 1.2.1.

In case you have a problem, or want to download more than one file every 30 minutes, use the dropbox links.

Link 3 leaves the stock ApeX animations, but includes the black battery percent outlines for those who like the ApeX animations.

credit for the battery percent icons goes to tom108 over at androidforums and Johnclevenger for this post that gives the default animations and how to add them manually to a ROM, as well as several other animations: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849963

How to Install:

-Place .zip file on your sdcard.

-Bootstrap recovery and reboot recovery

-install .zip from sd card

-Choose this file, and install!

Just to be safe, you might want to make a nandroid backup of your current configuration in case anything goes wrong.

Let me know if you find this useful!

I have being a user of this site since my HTC FUZE, and from that day on I'm hook. Because not only it allows me to have my phone how I want it by flashing Rom's or

make my life easy with new member made apps.

And from day One it plagued me that wonderful chefs and people would upload there work to Mega upload and other Upload services, which don't get me wrong Is free and well they do there own thing. But what grind my gears was that you had to wait a few seconds and or you could only download one file per IP or whatever.

I friend and I are working on a service for all you chefs or people who have files to contribute to xda developers and then sum. Basically what this is, is a file hosting site for roms and kernels and other files related to flashing modifide phones. Currently I'm testing the site on my own server at home make sure things work well

Here are the features.

1. Free Because, you people(insert Robert downy jr joke here) do this with out charging us the users.

2. upload space of 500 megs (more to come)

3. when file is uploaded in your GUI there will be a link that will send you a email with the url of the file so you can share it with the world, Or here.

More to come. also please tell me what you think of this Idea and also I hope the mods put in a sticky or something so developers/chefs can see this and be updated for when we roll out the site. Also you may ask your self "why would they do that and lose money on server space and all this crazy shenanigans. Well We plan to put ad's (I know horrible frickin ad's :0) and if they hearts are willing donation would hurt. But please in no way is necessary.

Anywho I'm off Is late and as Im sure I misspell half of this post for lack of sleep please forgive me.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
So far, I have not found a way to turn off power management.. Usually it goes like this -

iwconfig eth0 power off

I did notice wmiconfig and thus tried wmiconfig --getpower which gave me:

eth1

Power mode is rec

Power mode can be rec or maxperf..

If any of you have used the broadcom drivers in Linux, you'll know that they slow down big time when power management is set to 'All Packets Received'. On my laptop with a 300mb/sec 5ghz 802.11n connection, I get 2MB/sec with PM on.. 19MB/sec with PM off. It matters..

I haven't been able to find much on wmiconfig due to MS having an identical name for one of its utilities. I'm going to try the iwmulticall binary from my g2 now.... ok.. got errors. it listed lo, tunl0, and gre0.. then it died.. heh.

Has anyone turned off the PM or been able to interface with the bcm wifi chip? It'd be even cooler if we could turn up the tx-power a little.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
Nothing? Do you guys think the bottleneck for wifi transfer speed is the emmc?!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borkata81:
Any progress?

I have an Adam, which uses same wmiconfig and BCM4329 wifi.

wmiconfig have options like --power maxperf , but when I use it and try --getpower it reports back rec mode and not maxperf

Also there is option --txoptbursting 1 but not sure if it worked or at lease I don't know how to check if it has changed.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blades:
Yes. I can get 4-5MB/second (receive via ubuntu ncftp as client, gtab server) with power management turned off. CIFS has slightly lower speeds - but that's normal. SFTP is also decent (allows me to access / in its entirety as if it were mounted locally).

Anyways... put this in /system/xbin/

http://home.comcast.net/~ibladesi/iwmulticall

and start symlinking to it... like so

# cd /system/xbin/

/system/xbin # ln -s /system/xbin/iwmulticall iwconfig

Here are the symlinks you can create in addition to iwconfig:

iwgetid iwlist iwpriv iwspy

My normal use for it is-

iwconfig wlan0 power off

So I made a script and named it fstwan so its quick to type.

Don't try to set the txpower, that seems to be broken with all android devices.

And yeah, wmiconfig seems to be complete horse****.. that's even worse than bs. I don't think that this will change the tame nature of the wifi radio's power output.. I think it has more to do with system utilization.. its such strange default behavior. For example, using a ssh client to connect to the device is brutal in terms of responsiveness, turn pm off and viola, its like you're using adb.
[HTC Aria General] Dacian:
I am about to buy a bricked Aria, it won't load past the ATT screen, is there any way to root it without going through Windows? Like with my Evo, I was able to root that either through Windows or through the HBOOT screen.

EDIT: Does anyone know if this method would unbrick the phone?
[HTC Aria General] ioft:
Can you access the boot loader?

Ninja edit -- if you can't access the boot loader, than you probably won't be able to unbrick the phone.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
If you can get to the att screen then you should be able to access recovery by shutting off the phone and using volume down + power buttons to boot up. If you can do that then you SHOULD be able to fix it.
[HTC Aria General] guido3300:
Just wondering... How do you brick a phone that's not rooted? It's not like you can brick it by installing a new ROM to a non-rooted phone.
[HTC Aria General] Dacian:
I haven't bought the phone yet, I'm assuming he probably tried rooting and failed, I can't think of any other reason it wouldn't load past the att logo. And as you said, if it can get to the att logo, you should be able to get to the boot loader, right?

If I can get to the boot loader, I could probably load the stock rom to get it to load into the os to root through revoked.
[HTC Aria General] CallMeAria:
Correct. As long as you can get to bootloader you can restore the phone.

BUMP: Microsoft again has changed the policies! Chat seems to be working again!

Thanks to members for the tip. I had a little talk with one of the fellow MS employes and he said, actual WP7 customers were suffering due to the policy change. People were finding it frustrating to have to send scanned copies. So, they made it easier.Enjoy!

BUMP: Microsoft has changed the policies! Now they need scanned copy of IMEI number and product purchase proof! If anybody is able to get key by any other method, do post in this thread!

Hello, people!

I see lots of people asking for unlock keys for there HD2-7, just because their country doesn't seem to have the call center. However, I have found that, Microsoft is supporting all the big countries!

If you find this guide helpful, don't forget to hit the 'Thanks' button.

Here is the guide.

1. First of all, you need the contact number of Microsoft call center in your country.

Go here and grab it. http://www.microsoft.com/worldwide/

I have found it working for India!

2. Now, I think calls in most of the countries will be answered by the IVRS (Interactive Voice Response System). Most probably, you will get lost in choosing menu options.

3. Simply wait for the last option where the system says that press __ to talk to our technical support person. (In India, you have to type 06)

4. Now, the person will receive you. Tell him your Windows Live Id and all other things. (you need not fake!) And tell them your issue. He may say that you are in wrong section! Ask him to transfer his call to product activation section for WP7. (All this is to avoid getting lost in IVRS menu!)

5. Now, your call will be transfered. Tell the person that you want to activate your HTC HD7! (Make sure, its launched in your country.)

6. That's it! The person confirms your Live ID and gives you the key. (Its kinda difficult though to get 25 characters correctly through phone. Make sure you take down everything correctly!)

7. If step 3 onwards doesn't work (like technical support person doesn't know what you're talking about) tell them the link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2431699 and tell him that this is I want.

8. Alternatively, you can navigate to Xbox live support and ask them for key. (You have to tell them that you were asked for the key when you tried to access the Xbox live from your HD7)

9. Method of Skype is good but won't work on poor connections. (and most of the connections fall in this category, as far as developing countries are concerned!)

Again, I need your feedback. Comments are most welcome (and so are thanks!) Please, buy me a cup of milk, if you wish! (I don't like beer! :p)People in India can use SBI net banking. (PM me for account number!)

Hope you enjoy it.
