Know?

Droid X performs tons of HTC devices. And that's a Motorola. Droid X is about equal to the MT4g in power.

I hope Samsung makes the Sidekick. Super AMOLED FTW! Plus it's gonna be Andy Rubin's baby. Which means... Stock Android ?! :D It could be like the Nexus S with a keyboard ;) epic win
[General Topics] DanK Ups:
Makes sense to me that it would be running android though not only is it the best os in my opinion but the guy who brought you the sidekick UI is now in charge of Google's user experience department. I hope for one hope HTC busts out the sidekick I never owned one and always wanted one, and although Sombionix and Team Whiskey bust out some great roms for my phone I don't think I'll go the Samsung route again.

Dank Ups

Vibrant Galaxy S

Doin that Voodoo that it do so well with Bionix V5
[General Topics] androidfeen809:
And your wish just came true stock android and unfortunately (for me ofcourse) its made by samsung! With the super amoled btw no offense I just don't like samsung so I won't buy this new sidekick :) you will lol
[General Topics] Vulf:
That sounds pretty sweet! Physical kbs are always nice.
[General Topics] androidfeen809:
Yea I'm not saying its bad its just I like htc better but it looks good for samsung fans at least its better than sharp making the sidekick, and I love that it has a ffc but guess what and this really inffuriates me...... no flash on the cam wtf at this age

who has the Aria unlock code???? I bought a Aria which was locked by AT&T, now I need a unlock code
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
You'll have to go to a site that sells the unlock codes.

I have found a post on the forum Folio100 about using 3G modems. I could not try because my modem is ZTE and Huawei operate only. The file would have to remove the boot image and perhaps work if someone has a Huawei could comment.

[Vega General] Harplo:
AS reported on MoDaCo forums there's a way to make Mobile Broadband dongles work.

C&P from there:

Details:

1. Installed theMoDaCo Custom ROM for the Advent Vega r7

2. Enabled USB Host Mode (USB Mode --> USB Host (required reboot)

3. Inserted the Huawei E220 USB Dongle (mine was a t-mobile PAYG dongle)

4. If USB Host Mode is enabled, the dongle will flash green, then blue

*Interesting bit*:

5a. Go to Settings --> Accounts & Sync --> Add Account

5b. Select 'Google'

5b. Hold down the back button (the physical button) for 2-5 seconds until a 'Wireless Settings' icon appears at the bottom of the screen

5c. Select 'Wireless Settings'

5d. Select '3G Service enabled'

5e. Select 'Data enabled'

5f. Select 'Network Operators' ... You may need to wait 10-30 seconds as the Vega configures itself to read the USB dongle, makes a connection and identifies what providers are available... the light on my USB Dongle went solid blue at this point (if I recall correctly)

5g. Choose your network operator

5h. The Vega notification bar will change to show a "3G" icon, which is animated to show upload/download action; and a signal strenth icon.

6. Ensure WiFi is off and surf to a website... In my case, I got the t-mobile top-up page, which showed me my dongle's phone number and the fact that I had no further credit on my account.

My huawei K4505 doesn't work... yet.

Maybe just maybe it's because it intends to start the cd-rom.

I haven't found the AT commands to disable cd-rom for this dongle yet, but this topic may help to others.

Source http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914350

You must disable the CD-ROM drive with AT^U2DIAG=0 on the modem before you can use it on the folio.

Connect your USB modem to your PC, find out the COM port used by the modem and then connect via putty to the COM port and send AT^U2DIAG=0.

Here is a tutorial how to send AT commands using Windows: http://3g-modem.wetpaint.com/page/ex...+under+Windows

Also disable the PIN check on your SIM card.

not working for me. huawei e220 i´m on POV 10,2 with modaco vega rom r09.

everithing done as written above...

i have signal but no 3g symbol and internet is not working...

any suggestions?

-

am I right, that that zip from lin above is not needed for vega?

I tried to flash it (with cw), but there was an error.

Please let me know about adb shell, how to transfer files from pc to GT, i am totally new on this. Please me how to use adb shell?
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
adb.exe is a program that runs on your windows pc, and is a part of the android software developer kit, sdk, distributed for free. adb, android data bridge, lets us transfer files and execute commands between your phone and pc.
[Galaxy Tab General] wjv144:
thank you rangercaptain for the clear answer.

also I was lacking this piece of info.

now it seems I have new hurdle to overcome, I'm based in Shanghai and it seems that I cannot download SDK. I get the typical 'time out' error when I try to go to both: code.google.com/android/download.htm and developer.android.com/sdk :( in 99.9% of the time you get these errors, it means the site is blocked.

any suggestions for mirror sites....I haven't been able to find one.

thanks!
[Galaxy Tab General] tabing:
thanks rangercaptain i was trying sim unlock as rotohammer says in his post put adb shell code and do big copy paste, will running adb.exe allows me to copy paste code as rotohammer says? thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
Yes, that is exactly correct. It is a very cool, very smart method for us non-coders to unlock our tabs.

Make sure the first command you execute is "adb devices" to verify your connection and drivers. Copy everything from Roto's post. then right click in the command window, and select Paste from the pop up menu. Wait a minute ... done!
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
I googled "android sdk" and came up with a few links. Here is a promising one:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Choose the most recent. Also you will need drivers for your pc if you don't use windows 7. Again, google or search this galaxy tab forum.
[Galaxy Tab General] QueenAmy:
Here is a website that I used to set up adb in general &

which also has a list of commands

http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/

Once you have followed all the steps explained in here to set it up,

whenever you want to "send a command" over to your GT, you ...

1) first run "cmd" on your Windows device

2) and when the cmd windows pops up enter:

cd\

cd AndroidSDK\tools\

adb devices

(to check if your device really is listed)

:)

.. and then, run the actual command

;)
[Galaxy Tab General] wjv144:
developer.android.....is blocked. I googled untill 2 in the night and found a few local stored outdated version of SDK. One of them actually wanted to update itself, so I think I'm ok now :)

thanks again
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
Drivers for pc, and putting adb.exe and any file you want to send to the tab in tools directory are the two keys for success

... either increase or decrease the volume, speaker phone ringtones for himself or any music to go, do not hear anything from the speaker. When i put the headphones, i could hear everything perfectly, regime change (eg when the radio) to change from headset to speaker, again nothing. I did soft reset, hard reset, a new ROM, New RADIO and still nothing. I have a recollection that, before my dying sound, without the 2 files I deleted a directory Windows: index_rus.xml and that under it, which I think was index_rus.xml & 68 (or something). So please someone, if I can upload these 2 files to see whether it will be okay, or just if you remember to fix this BUG, PLEASE HELP!

[Adam General] joshua.lyon:
The Tegra2 chip can play MKV video... however, please keep in mind that MKV is just a container, so it depends on the way the video was actually encoded. That being said, a number of people with the ViewSonic G-Tablet which runs the Tegra 2 chip reported that 1080p h.264 High Profile videos will not play.

Some of you may remember that the Boxee box was originally slated to have the Tegra 2 chip, but they swapped it out late in the game due to lack of support of 1080p High Profile h.264.
[Adam General] inspiron41:
okay i tried have Adam read two different movie files off a USB key. I tried to play back with VideoPlayer (NI), Movies (google), and mVideoPlayer (supposedly support mkv files)

1. a 1.4 g divx files (avi) plays back very nicely

2. mkv files, doesnt recognize the format by any of the three apps above

if want me to try any other video players let me know
[Adam General] goku31640:
Have you tried vplayer?
[Adam General] inspiron41:
NEVER MIND!!! I found out how to play them. Dont use Sniffer to play them. I located the file with Astro Manager and "Open As" ==> video ==> your player

Android Google Video ==> plays the video just fine, no subtitles

VideoPlayer (NI) ==> plays the video, no subtitles.

mVideoPlayer ==> plays the video with subtitles. Shuts off after a minute (maybe because it's a demo version)

vplayer ==> doesn't open my mkv file

and this is all from the USB key
[Adam General] LeviathanPT:
Usually i like to see Naruto Episodes from Taka and One Piece from yibis so far both play fine with thng e default player and have subtitles, even tho i noticed some stopping and desync sometimes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BBullit:
I rooted an EVO 4g using Unrevoked Forever (if I remember correctly) and every time I try to unroot using the PC36IMG.zip method I keep getting the "Main is older" message on the bootloader. Could someone point me to a newer version of this file or a work-around? Any help would be appreciated! =)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] housry23:
I got this same error until I tried the latest OTA. Try the 3.70.xxxx PC36IMG and you will probably have better luck. My 0003 EVO came with 3.29, but that no longer works to unroot my phone. I tried the latest version and it worked for me. Here is the exe: Shipped Roms RUU.exe, or the .zip RUU zip. With the zip just download, then rename it to PC36IMG, place on the root of your sdcard and boot into bootloader mode. The phone may reset itself during the restore process. This is normal! Do Not Pull The Battery! Wait for it to completely finish and it will ask you if you want to reboot. Choose yes and you will be back to stock.

Oh here is a thread on here that lists all the shipped Rom's and links in both exe and zip form so you can try each one til you find the one that works for you: XDA Thread Shipped Roms

By the way, you posted in the wrong section. This should have gone in Q&A or General section. Just for future reference. Welcome to XDA.

Hi all

When emergency occur, most of mobile tracking application in the market require individual to take out their phone, and trigger a panic button to call for help, however, when facing emergency, we often found individual does not have the capacity to call for help, as user:

in panic mode

being force in unwanted situation

force to turn off their phone.

What is there is a service that will automatically trigger for help without any action from user? Even user force to turn off their phone?

secQ.me is a new way of protecting individual (especially for woman and children) by ofter them a "virtual" guardian angel that watch over them, should they being force in any unwanted situation, or in emergency, our service will automatically notify user's friend and family via email and SMS.

3) Once activated, login to our portal, and configure your emergency contacts, and your SNS (Facebook & Twitter) setting

4) Verify secQ.me Android app by key in your email and your register event pin

5) Start using the services

BTW, all new sign up account will have 10 sms credits, which is use for notification purpose..

[General Questions and Answers] bjames23:
1. you download from the market and it gets stored in your apps folder as a .apk file. don't know if thats what you were looking for. you can alway uninstall and redownload from marketplace if you want.

2. As far as I know, no. You could possibly contact google and see if they can transfer them over though.

3. some have serial codes, others have you download the "paid version" which replaces the unpaid version or you just uninstall that one.

4. Maybe? ha ha

Not for sure why yahoo didn't work cause I used a Mac w/ a windows vm installed and the video chat worked just fine between the tab and the computer. Did you install the video plugin for yahoo.

To legally use skype you have to have verizon network (can someone fact-check that?) or the app won't install.

I was mistaken - I downloaded skype from the market, and installed, then set up an account. But it only calls over wifi, not 3g. And you have to pay. I want to learn about voip.
[Galaxy Tab General] jkurl:
That is because skype has not released a version w/ video chat for android.

Those of us with non-stock roms don't have Qik.

Tango in the market works great. My friend installed it on his ipod touch and we were able to have a video conference without issue. I was on 3G he was on wifi.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
FYI - Skype calls work fine over 3G on a Euro Tab on Euro networks. If it is not working over 3G for you it is probably being blocked by your carrier.

O/T though as Skype doesn't support video calling on Android as yet.

[Galaxy Tab General] pawces:
..going back to the title of the thread, where the heck is video chatting?I installed the latest YM and the imVideo plugins but the video chat option is nowhere to be found. Apparently you can make a Video call (i tried it, it used the rear facing camera, was able to "connect" (i got this call timer thing go up) but then neither of us could hear anything over the line. This was thru 3G by the way, calling a PC.

Where indeed is video chat?
[Galaxy Tab General] quackinator:
Video calling between tab and pc is working via oovoo. Install the latest oovoo for your pc and the oovoo app from the market. The screen orientation has been fixed.
[Galaxy Tab General] cellwarrior6:
I use oovoo and it has worked the best. Ive tried as many apps I could find. Oovoo works from app to app, app to pc, android to iphone, all for free unless you want to do conference calls; then you need to pay. 1 to 1 is free.
[Galaxy Tab General] Rogue9:
Nope! Oovoo doesn't work correctly. The orientation of the forward facing cam is 90 degrees out and there's no config to reorient it.
[Galaxy Tab General] sicx86:
Short answer is Yahoo Messenger works, like crap. Oovoo works as well, with issues.. All of the other video chat (handset->pc and handset->handset) programs I've used suck, wifi, 4g no matter. I've tried on my HTC EVO, MyTouch4g and Galaxy Tab with most of the free ones available. Qik's quality is not very good at all but it tends to work between tablet and phone.

The galaxy tab's front facing camera is nice and clear though for it's purposes. You will probably find yourself in better luck using your headset as well.

Also, i'm not really sure if it was installed with cm7 or not but the t-mobile version of Qik is installed on the mytouch4g, seems to work as well as it did with the stock rom.
[Galaxy Tab General] quackinator:
The new oovoo software should have the 90 degree orientation problem fixed. Though, you can only chat in portrait mode, and not in landscape mode. I'm not sure if the problem is rom-specific, but if it helps, I'm using rotohammer's JME v4 rom.
