[Windows Phone 7 General] ServError:
"Dude", no offense, but I'm pretty sure I was just using my mytouch 4g as an emulator for various platforms with the help of my bluetooth connected Wiimote.

Phones are becoming more and more powerful, and to act like like there's some sort of lack of power to run something as simple as an old emulator is bullcrap. I sold my hacked playstation portable, with every emulator up to nintendo 64, and find emulating on my phone equally useful, if not better (1ghz cpu vs 222/333OC cpu)

Xscale processors? really? this is a new age, showing us those ancient CPUs means nothing.

now, lets look at the hardware. On screen controls aren't pretty, but are totally functional. A bluetooth gamepad? now you're in business.

Also, WM has plenty of emulators, I had a bunch of them...

the only "problem" I see is getting microsoft to approve of any of these apps officially. THAT'S the reason nobody develops them, not because of a lack of skill among developers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pupakota:
My personal opinion:

I can agree with you, this "approval" indeed is quite a problem(this is why there's no emus for i.e. Blackberry devices).

But like i said, almost nobody is making emus for portables novadays. Lets say - i do not need "approval" to start programming, right?

So it is not mian problem there.

Bluetooth controller, ok, it is partial solution, but good luck with demanding emu + bt and actual batteries.

Please, i do not agree, onscreen controls maybe are functional, but tell me why they stripped buttons/dpad from actual devices?

Not price is a reason, that's for sure. Imho, onscreen buttons are just last resort desperate solution, that's all.

Especially new age of salary, sorry;/ I am still happy with performance of my device - raw power is not just bunch of cpu optimizations for twitter handling nor HD mov playing, lol. Have you ever had 624+ mhz xscale device, or you are talking about samsung feebles sold by HTC?

What, lol?

You are one of these guys, that still are counting ghzes vs real power?(you know, like these who were telling me, that they have 1ghz cpu in phone, so diablo2 should run fine, because it ran on 800 mhz duron).

Anyway i REALLY wish, that someone will make such emus as i have for that old machine for wp7.

Then i would switch. But i just doubt it.

Ok, have fun with your phone.

I'll stay with PDA.

topic unsuscribed, until someone can pm me with price for wp7 device up to 120$(i paid for actual one). :)

Please keep discussions like these in WP7 General. These kinds of topics usually don't bring forth actual results. So I am moving it to WP7 General since this isn't development just discussion.

Hi all

I have been looking for a video player for my HTC HD2 that can play all type of video including flv and mkv. I have tried tried different version of TCPMP. But the version i have 0.81 crashes for all videos and 0.72_netDrg crashes if i play .flv. I know too many people have posted regrading this on XDA but have got fed up after trying at-least 10-15 solutions. Has anybody faced same. Is there any other free video player is available?

Thanks in advance,

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ruudfood:
Hi Everyone

**** I Posted this in the Q&A thread and didn't get a response so I'm starting a new thread in hope! ****

I'm thinking of switching to Nandroid soon as I'm bored with WM6.5 and want something new to play with. However, I use my phone for business and it's essential that I can do the things I currently do with WM and get back to working condition as quickly as possible. So I need answers to the following questions before I take the plunge:

1) Exchange/Outlook synchronisation: will I be able to sync my calendar, mail, tasks and contacts? Will anything be amiss and will it continue to sync automatically once it's been setup initially

2) SMS/Call Logs: will I be able to back up my existing SMSs and call logs then restore them to my android build? If there's some incompatibility between the formats, is there a tool that I can use to convert them into a format Android would be happy with before restoring them?

3) Bluetooth: I use my bluetooth headset (Nokia BH-905) for everything - phone calls, music, etc - so I need theis to work. Are there any general bluetooth problems?

4) Internet Connection Sharing/Tethering: does this work as easily as it does with WM? Does it work at all? Is there anything I need to know about it?

5) Volume: I've read that this is an issue with some Nandroid builds. How serious is it? I'm hard of hearing so I need the call and ring volumes to have a lot of range.

6) Office apps: from time to time I use Word and Excel. Are there equivalents out there for Android that would do the same job?

I'm know some of these questions have been answered elsewhere (yes, I have done a search but it's a bit of a minefield!) but I'd appreciate them all in one place if possible.

Thanks for your help in advance.

I have been trying to install REVOlution DHD theme but it's not work. So just use the "Factory Reset" function and everything seemed fine till when its going through the steps to setup (or sign in) for a google account I get, process com.android.setupwizard has stopped unexpectedly... etc. Force Close. Then it restarts the google set up process again. Very pitty I don't have Nandroid.

Please show me suggestions to solve problem. Thank in advance
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
if you don't have a nandroid the only way to fix this is to reflash your ROM, to remove any traces of REVOlution theme
[Desire HD General] AndroHero:
you could also try pushing setupwizard.apk and htcsetupwizard.apk to /system/app/. you dont need setup wizard imo, it can all be done from the settings menu :)
[Desire HD General] lainhunguyen:
Can you show me more details? Thank you
[Desire HD General] AndroHero:
download the rom you using, use winrar or winzip to extract the .zip, inside there is a folder called "system" open that and then the folder called "app" find setupwizard.apk and htcsetupwizard.apk, copy both files to your sd card, boot into android, and use a root enabled explorer to copy both files to /system/app/ (overwriting originals) then boot into recovery and wipe the dalvik cache, reboot and try again :)

[Captivate Themes and Apps] Jirv311:
My favorite "Cog" branded animation so far. Simple and clean. However, at 14MB, I wonder if the images need optimizing?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 10tonhammr:
Agreed. Looking at your pngs, I'm guessing their in RGB color. 400,000+kb is pretty big for black and white. Convert the color profiles to grayscale and I bet you'd be able to cut the image size in half. Or, since the bootanimation can also be built using .jpegs or .pngs, you could convert them to .jpeg and reduce the quality to medium (or even high) and really reduce the file size without a noticable impact on image quality. Great job btw. Very clean. I like that look on bootanimations.

EDIT: Here is an example.

First image is the original, Part0, Boot_0030.png size: 394 KB

This is optimized. Part0, Boot_0030.jpeg size: 52.7 KB

Smaller size you helps create a smoother presentation, and its just easier to manage.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] nbs11:
For my boot animations I first use a photoshop action to convert each image to a quality 3 JPEG. It cuts a 500kb image to around 20-100kb. Then I run it through Image Optimizer and it cuts a third of each image. Then I run it through it again and it cuts around 1% off each image. I have managed to get around a 600 image boot animation to work in under 7mb with no major quality loss.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] AtariBorn:
Sorry I haven't responded, I've been away for a while.

I'll work on reducing the image sizes and update the download link as soon as I get a chance.

[General Questions and Answers] Hitch_Itch:
So I thought I would give IncRom 1.2 a try. I have used skyraider and virtuous.

So far I love IncRom, the animations are really cool.

My only small gripe is the clock color on the lock screen is white and is rather hard to see especially in a bright room unless I use a dark wallpaper.

Is there a way to change the color of the clock on the unlock screen?

Thanks

[Captivate General] boardsportsrule:
used to be able to flash any combo...even I-9000 roms(darky's...) with proper kernel and modem combos.

Had no problems ever!

Now, ANY combination kills my signal. Paragon; perception, pheonix, the list goes on and on.

The only ROM i can run is Cognition. If i flash to a different kernel/modem combo,(even while running cognition) I have problems.

Now atleast I am stuck with a good ROM, but I would love to fine-tune with a different kernel/radio and I have NO idea why my phone is acting this way. I am thinking maybe it's a SIM card thing(I pulled the SIM out one timebefore the phone was fully shut down...

other than that I cannot think of anything weird I have done.

In between flashes I have ODIN'd back to H2 and then Master Cleared.

Flash via CWM. Root with 1-click.

PLEASE give me some idea of what I have done?!?!!?

Or is it warranty time for the phone due to 'GPS' issues.. ;)

Thanks
[Captivate General] Deleted member 2758866:
Find the modem cognition uses that gives you the least problems. Are you flashing to stock before each ROM?
[Captivate General] boardsportsrule:
Yep, back to stock & master cleared between(only once problems arised..back in the day I could just flash to what I wanted and never really had a problem. Went back to stock once when the new flash responded strangely.)

Looking at cognition, I get minimal information, I THINK it's stock radio/kernel..

[Captivate General] Mac11700:
I would..check your usb plug/cable/port first..make sure it isn't bad and effecting your data transfer..Make sure your not plugged into a external port and plug into PC directly..

Re down load your roms and kernels again..keep them separate from what you have already used..

Flash back to stock..master clear delete all data on your internal and your data

Re-install everything over again..cause it sounds like something got corrupted along the way

[Captivate General] boardsportsrule:
Thats how I am leaning, but i dont think it's with the roms/kernels/radios i have downloaded...since I have tried so many damn copies that wouldn't make sense. also tried downloading directly to phone, eliminating the "3rd party" computer, and have used drop box in the past...

I have flashed to stock and master cleared, i could do it again, but i am tempted to go back to stock and try to exchange it for a new one due to either random shut-offs or GPS(both of which mine are effected by..) but i would like to avoid this hassle...

If something did get corrupted, any idea how I'd solve that? I am at a loss as to what could have gotten corrupted that a odin'd stock + master clear wouldn't solve...?
[Captivate General] opcow:
It's possible that your phone has a hardware issue making it more finicky. Try stock for a bit and see if the problems go away. Maybe try Andromeda 1.0 and see how the KP1 modem works (or just flash KP1 on some other ROM).
[Captivate General] boardsportsrule:
hopped back to Stock... Gonna run things here, see which problems arise, and go from there. Can you flash a different kernel onto the stock ROM? I'd assume you need a 2.1 kernel, and i don't think many are retrofitted to 2.1, but the KP1 modem is a good idea, ill let things pan out on stock and see what happens if/when i flash kp1 modem.
[Captivate General] boardsportsrule:
funny fact: fire fly made problems for me... it's based on rogers 2.2, same as cognition. that seemed odd to me.

"Can't find misc" should only appear if you don't have a misc partition in NAND. (which is created when flashing CWM)

And nand kernel open failure probably means theres no zImage or initrd.gz in the boot partition.

Try flashing CWM from the CWM thread and then a ROM.

150mb for sense rom is definitely to low!

Read the rom's thread carefully guys!

It says there what CWR partition is needed.

Sense roms need SD CARD PARTITION so read the thread (it's first page).

If you have read it and your CWR partition looks exactly as it was given in the rom's thread then do task29, hspl, magldr 1.13 and CWR.

If it still doesn't work try different roms or try CLK.
