[Nook Color General] Darkomen64:
From what i understand (and thats not much =) currently honeycomb still has NO hardware acceleration for video.. nither does froyo so the best video playing on a NC you can get is currently running a rooted stock rom.. encoded at 800x480 or below.. the iphone 3gs and older all have a screen size of 480x320 so they SHOULD work as long as they were encoded properly (right codec and such)
[Nook Color General] ministersin:
Although I understand the excitement, this seems like a very premature discussion. Despite the repeated statement that honeycomb is available on the NC, out is in fact not. What you are seeing is actually an SDK build. Software Developers Kit. For development. And the first SDK at that. You are essentially seeing an emulator running on the nook screen.

Before everyone goes nuts I know that is not technically correct, but it is as correct as saying we are running full honeycomb.

After an AOSP build is released we will see a more functional version and eventually probably see better integration with the video hardware. And for my final rain on this parade...I am a professional video content creator. And if you think you are able to see the difference between DVD quality and 2100 stream HD on a 4.3 inch screen, you are mistaken. Or have vision above that of mortal men.

For the record I owned an HD2, now use the Evo and also own a NookColor.
[Nook Color General] Darkomen64:
Ok i'm confused by this part...

No one was really talking about the 4.3 inch screen..

ANYWAYS the dvd quality vs 2100 stream HD by that do you mean a 2100/kbps steam?

if thats the case then its not a surprise seeing as 2100/kbps is enough to stream at 480p.... which is dvd quality
[Nook Color General] ministersin:
OP's original question was about "I will be converting 720p .mkv movies to .avi format with 1024x600 resolution and 2,000 kbits rate to get the best video quality."

Later after some responses he comments he gets better resolution on his HD2 (that is a 4.3" screen) so he will skip the nook.

You still point out a misunderstanding I had now that I go back which is that he is starting with a 720p source but ending up 1024x600. But really this is just makes my point stronger because then we are looking at an even smaller difference in the resolution.
[Nook Color General] a.fenderson:
On the off-chance the OP or others here are still interested in the possibility of true 1024x600 playback on the Nook Color, please see this thread so as to discuss one possibility. Thanks!
[Nook Color General] nolook:
video just sucks on honeycomb....it will playback but there are sound sync issues on every player i have tried (rock player, vital player neon, etc)

i have only tried sd xvid (tv shows) files so maybe others work better...

i sure hope this will improve in the future....

Hey there,

I would like to patch my phone with the touchscreen fix, but I want to know exactly how to do it and if there is a safe+easy way to do it?

i'm using the stock rom.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] irondevil:
to flash touchscreen fix you must have root permission and custom recovery a yes it is safe at 99%
[Optimus One, P500, V General] eichos:
I still haven't come across a clear guide on how to just apply the update, maybe someone should post one as it will be used a lot
[Optimus One, P500, V General] irondevil:
to apply touchscreen you take the "fix".zip put it in your sd card than access to recovery and select option flash zip from recovery select the "fix".zip and confirm

it's done!!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dongimin2:
you need a custom recovery. Its a small operating system (ish) that runs alongside ur main os (android). Install it how you would do when u get a custom ROM (search forum plz.. there are TONS of tutorials.. even a video!) and then go to Flash from zip in the custom recovery menu, and get the zip file (dont unpack it) from the patch that u are talking about (dont rename.. it should be 'signed_kernal' or sth) and select it from the custom recovery menu. wait, go get a smoke, then ur done
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CajunChicken:
I live in the uk and am eagerly anticipating the release of the motorola Atrix. However, I don't really want to wait ages for an orange release and would prefer an unlocked phone anyway (no contracts and the like). What should I do? I know there's expansys etc. but I am concerned about a warranty. Should I be? I am really just looking for some helpful advice.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shady_lanem:
i heard you can send it to any motorola services centre for the warranty no?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vido.ardes:
Doesn't mater where you buy it from, you will have a warranty with the manufacturer. I have had to send stuff back to Expansys before and had no problems
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CajunChicken:
Thanks! i was just a bit worried i would lose out on something. now all i have to do is wait for an unlocked version to be released, or even announced :/

Any news on UK release dates yet?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WRAITH07:
It's slated for a Q2 release in the UK (Most likely to be around mid May), I'll try find the source I got it from.

This is unconfirmed though.

Any ideas on what the price might be for it? BTW this is for the regular Atrix and not the 4G
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Kirsh:
I'm from Israel and we use 3G bands similar to Europe, the Artix 4G supports HSDPA at the 2100 MHZ band and so do some European carriers (including mine). Does that mean I can just order the U.S version and it will work ok? if so, no need to wait for UK dates or any other European release :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azamatka:
It seems you'd better ask a friend of yours in US to bring it over. That's what I'm going to do. USD399 is way better than GBP399 (surely it's going to be more than that).
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trickyhenry:
Atrix 4g and atrix is the same phone. In america they have verizon lte 4g so t-mobile and att started calling their hsdpa+ 4g which is nonsense. You'd need to check the bands to ensure it works. Should be ok as im sure moto support most. You'll need to wait for an unlock in anycase as only on at&t i think if coming from america. I would buy from expansys although they can be expensive. If you import you need to add the vat which you'll get billed for 2 weeks after purchase by the courier.

I can't wait to get mine!

Btw. I bought a droid pro from usa and it worked fine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imperticus:
According to this it will be released in May 2011 in the UK, and exclusive to Orange.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercuryzzz:
The difference between atrix 4g and atrix for europe could be regarding frequencies: 4g shold be 3g on frequencies 850/1900/2100 while european version 850/900/1900/2100. This should be not a problem because almost in all europe 3g works on 2100 Mhz frequency. What do you think about it?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoogWeed:

BUt Expansys have changed there site to show a price of £474.99 SIM free, which seems very reasonable, really. But no release date, now

Monkey see, monkey do.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercuryzzz:
I quote you, it's a good price 475£ seeing that expansys usually is very expensive, and 475£ become for me using my valid italian vat number 395£ (460 euros about) which is a great price. I don't think release date to uk is july, july would be too late. At this point I will buy it from USA the same day it will be available sim free ( I think mid or late march).

Nope, flashing won't re-lock it, and I've never heard of anything that does.

Your radio is fine for Android, you can try others if you're not happy with reception or possibly battery life. There's also no best radio, it's very user specific so just try whatever works best for you.

at present i don't believe so. i don't think you can any APIs have been released for it. if a dev made an agenda app they would have to come up with all their own things like connection to exchange and that.
[Fascinate General] bartorob:
So far DL30 is working without any real issues. The only weird thing that I noticed is that Adobe Flash 10.1 stopped working. It worked when I tested it, but now the same site isn't working.

I tried...

Updating to the latest Flash via market place... no luck.

Renaming the install_flash_player.apk and installing from the market place... no luck

Most sites have a warning that flash is not installed. This is using the android browser.

If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated.

EDIT: I should have stated that I wiped the data and cache. I also went from a stock DL09 rooted phone to the DL30 leak.

Sorry, slightly off topic, but browser related. Anyone actually get the default search engine selection to work correctly? Neither of the two other choices - Google or Yahoo works.

Typing anything into the top URL / Search bar and then pressing the right arrow button to initiate the search always yields bing search results. Maybe I am missing the real function of the default search selection, but one would figure that's what that setting was for.

Everything else in DL30 has seemed to function perfectly.

Good freakin god, I came here back when WM4 was a hot topic. This place is popular. I figure I'll pop up a two parter.

PART 1:

So I've got my froyo from tmo over minikies, and the performance is abysmal. It's worse then eclair if that's at all possible. The voodoo guys thread is a mess and it's impossibly hard to get straight answers since the newbies use all sorts of bizarre terms for things. And frankly, I'm shocked that we're still dealing with journaling + ACLs on vfat.

Clockwork - does it work or not? I've got 3e for my recovery version. I'm reading no, but his site appears to be a blog so there's no real information per se.

Voodoo - There's nothing voodoo about it, I think it's freaking braindead that we're using vfat. I am interested in this.

Finally if I install clockwork + voodoo, will I be able to accept another kies update from tmobile or did everyone get their pants shot off?

PART 2:

So my wife got the froyo from tmo over minikies, and the performance is abysmal. It's worse then eclair if that's at all possible. Yup, I did both the phones back to back. I flashed mine and tossed it on the charger and didn't really mess with it, she went right to work. Her phone is noticeably worse than mine in both performance and force closing issues. Whatever is supposed to happen after that update (and I've read on the boards now not to touch it for a half hour or so), it probably got all banged up on her phone. How can I force this to happen again? ODIN back to stock and do the upgrade again or is there something else to be aware of?
[G Tablet General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I searched around a bit on the forums and saw a few threads semi-related to this, but no answers. Thought this might need a dedicated thread.

I've been using my G-tab connected to a Bluetooth GPS (Both an external GPS mouse, and through my DroidX using ShareGPS) and it works great for navigation.

I can use WiFi tether to the Droid for Data, but as you probably know WiFi and Bluetooth don't play well together. If I get a call while tethering, my bluetooth headset is very scratchy due to the WiFi Interference.

I would like to tether the G-Tab and DroidX via bluetooth for DUN/Data, but can't quite figure out how.

Anyone done this?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LarryLars:
Yes

You can flash from rom to rom although it is not recommended. I have personally done this many times (cog to precep and vise versa). I would however wipe data and cache (assuming you are using Rom Manager).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tintillo:
Thank you LarryLars. I do have rom manager, which data and cache are you referring to? I sync the phone with my gmail account and I use the the external sd card for data, meaning that in the sdcard of the phone I have programs and their preferences.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJ133169:
he means when you save the new rom to your SD card, and then you go to rom manager, and select the option to install a new rom, after you click that, there will be a box coming up that says backup, then it will say wipe cache and data.

So make sure you select the BACKUP otion to backup rom first, then go back and sleected wipe data and cache.

I have flashed about 5 roms using clockwork mod ( ROM MANAGER) And I didnt have any problems until I tryed to go from COGnition to stock. other then that everything is fine.

Just make sure your backed up.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbcollins:
Wipe data and cache are options presented to you in rom manager when you select a rom to flash. The additional option rom manager gives you is to backup your current rom, which is probably a good idea.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tintillo:
Thank you JJ133169 and wbcollins. My approach was to boot into CWM to do the change, and did not see the backup and wipe as a single step option.

I already did my backup with TiBu, later on the day I will flash the rom via Rom Manager, to do the upgrade without going back to original, and later add firebird 2.

I will report back on the results.

Thank you!!

[Android Software Development] Lakers16:
In your layout file, give your layout an id:

Then in the activity code:

rl.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.myNewBackground);

Or are you asking about the homescreen wallpaper for the device?

getApplicationContext.setWallpaper()

should do it... But check the documentation for proper syntax.
