[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
Hi all,

I'm the new with this 4rum. yesterday, i upgrade my phone with [ROM] LGP500 AmberHome V1.1.

This rom 's perfect & work like a charm (thanks to corwin42). but for a while, i found that my music player & also video player does not work. Although i have many music & video files in my sdcard. But whenever i open music or video player, they do not find anything.

I searched our 4fum, but found no clue. please help me solve this issue.

Do i have to reinstall music & video player? Where i can find the apk file??? And how can i install, via adb? i guess ? I used root explorer to copy music & video apk file from GT540, and try to paste in P500 system/app via root explorer. But i got "install error"
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Maybe stagefright is enabled. Try disabling it via the tweak script. You can download the script from the thread in the development forum.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
I 've just tried the script, but nothing solve. The same thing happen with music & video player.

please help me ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ciolnadu:
try another music player
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Okay, try this (for a little troubleshooting): Open your file manager and go to the directory where you have your files. Try playing one of them. If it plays, I think your player can't find your music for some reason. If it doesn't, I bet it's stagefright.

By the way, after you disabled sf from the script, did you restart your phone?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
after try the script , i restarted...

the music player can play the file, but in the screen it show no thing... i mean no album art, no artist, no song's name ... although my files have full information and show normally before i do upgrade. it's so strange...

Thanks for your quick reply

edit: btw, i do not see the music.odex in system/app folder? is it normal ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Strange. I have this problem for only some of my files. Do videos play? Do the same thing just like the music.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
the same thing happen. When i use file manager to open, it open & play as normal. But when i open video player, it say "no video"
[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
update: i installed another music & video player. The same thing happen. They say no file in sdcard.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
I'm not sure and this is just a guess, but I think something may have went wrong with the partitioning process. Do you have a backup of your files on the memory card?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
yes i have, so i will try to re - partion ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Yes, try to repartition. Then restore your backup to your memory card. Make sure you copy your files to the FAT partition, and not the ext one :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] niczzi:
update:

Things were solved. I do not know exactly to explain. When I mount the sdcard, I noticed that there's a file which was named ".nomedia". I did not know where it come from. Just delete & things were solved. I do not have to re - partion, now my music & video player work like a charm !

Any ideas abt the file".nomedia" ????

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jacksilverburgh:
Firstly hi...

I just made this LWP of Nexus S Neural LWP and Honeycomb wallpaper. Hope you like it.

Just push/paste it to your /system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk, change permisions and reboot. Works fine on my Nexus One.

If there are some bugs, I'm sorry.. I'm not that skilled.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] liam.lah:
Sweet as. trying now

EDIT: hmm, couldnt get it to show up.

EDIT: Fixed the permissions, got it working thanks.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jacksilverburgh:
Did you edit the permissions and reboot?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Axefield:
It seems to work fine on CM7 #33, but only with Androidian and System themes. With Cyanbread theme the background is the same ase the theme default.

edit. OP seems to be on FroYo, so that might be the reason...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sino8r:
It works fine CM6.1.1 G2
[XPERIA X10 Accessories] badhobz:
Well I got my matte screen protector today. I bought it from Netimes.com and so far its working quiet well at keeping the fingerprints at bay. Before when I was using the stock screen protector and then without any protectors I always had a ton of ugly looking fingerprints and face grease.

It's also quiet good at cutting down the glare, but there are a few downfalls

1) it causes the screen to look more pixated. It's especially noticable on white backgrounds

2) it causes your contrast to drop 5% or so from the normal

still worth it so far, but these problems, especially the first one is quite annoying
[XPERIA X10 Accessories] Tony84:
yeah same problem with the one I bought on brando.com, it's perfect for its resistance and quality, but the screen looks as yours. maybe I'll try the other one not matte
[XPERIA X10 Accessories] Kelvin0007:
Anyone has tried Zagg invisible shield? i bought one but i havent installed it yet, i want to know if its worth the effort.... and the money too lol
[XPERIA X10 Accessories] mezo9090:
The stock one is much better, Zagg is kinda hard on the screen makes it more difficult to swipe or slide something.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bay_wolf:
New Program which makes this obsolete.

Link

Bay_wolf's ROM Installer:

This is just an intial release but should be fairly bug free. One known bug is that in Windows 7 (possibly Vista), sometimes after finishing the application it asks if the program installed successfully. Just press that it did successfully install and it'll go away. Just for safety on my behalf: I'm distributing this program as-is and no guarantee that it will not hurt your phone. So, use at your own risk and don't blame me for bricking your phone.

Now that the legal (save my butt) stuff is out of the way...

Before Using this program, backup using Titanium Backup if you so desire.

To use this program you need to:

Be on the stock Captivate ROM or have flashed back to it using ODIN. This most likely will not work with Captivates running Froyo.

Enable USB debugging mode- Go to settings> Applications> Development> And then check the box next to USB debugging.

Have the USB drivers for the Captivate installed on your computer. You can get them here.

Have the ROM of your desire downloaded to your hard drive.

Know a little bit about flashing and ROMs.

And that's about it. Most of the instructions are given to you by the program and are not needed to be written out here. If you find any part confusing, please comment in this thread and I'll try to implement it in the next release and I'll tell you what it means as a temporary solution.

Download: ROM Installer 1.1

Bay_wolf's Recovery App:

Also included here is an app that's just designed to reboot your phone into recovery mode. It's great for not having to press buttons after flashing to stock. Just make sure your phone is plugged in and not mounted and it'll reboot you into recovery mode when you open the program. This can be used with any Captivate and possibly more phones (can't test that as I don't have any other ones).

Download: Recovery App 1.0

Donations are appreciated if you found this program helpful:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] xtremekilla09:
Very intresting, will test it out and let you know how it goes.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bay_wolf:
Thanks! If you find something wrong, please let me know and I'll fix it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
Looks very interesting. Can't wait to try it out!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bay_wolf:
Updated the ROM Installer. Made some of the wording of the steps a little easier.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] smokestack76:
So this is like a easier Odin? Good idea ;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] xtremekilla09:
I like it, it is very good for beginners as they can be assured of the steps to flash a ROM. Great Job
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bay_wolf:
Kind of. It's what you use after ODIN to get the custom ROM installed. Hopefully in 2.0 release it'll all be integrated.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] smokestack76:
Thats cool. I dont use Winders or i would check it out. But sounds like its going to help out around here.

can you guys tell me where i can get some high resolution wallpaper for my g2 i been looking for some 480x800 for the g2 but they dont seem to look that good on the g2 seem like they lose the high resolution effect.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] willham:
Download zedge from the market. I get all my wallpaper there.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] wayde187:
Zedge works pretty well and has a decent selection. Most of the nice looking live wallpapers on the market don't lose their crispness when applied to the screen. Zedge does like to force close every once in a while but its no biggy.

There are numerous images, many with pre-sized for Android phones.

[Android Apps and Games] modest_mandroid:
Hey dudes, I decided to try my hand at Android app development recently. This is actually my first foray into any sort of app development that isn't for my own personal use, so it's kind of exciting for me to have other people actually using my app.

Anyway, if anyone is interested and wants to give it a go and leave me some feedback, it's an SMS encryption doodad. Essentially, you can encrypt some text and send it by SMS, email, post it to facebook or twitter.. If you send it by sms to someone and they happen to have the same program, their app will automatically detect the incoming encrypted sms and notify you to decrypt it. Pretty basic, but it's handy.

You can grab the free version here:

Any feedback about what you like, don't like, what I can improve on or what features I should add are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JFMFT:
In the (likely) event that the Thunderbolt is rooted, will 4G data be able to be transmitted through the Wireless Tether app on the market, or is that app limited to 3G? I don't know how it works with the Evo and Wi-Max, but I assume it'll be the same for the Thunderbolt, no? 4G hotspot sounds awesome to me...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Flying_Fox:
4g gets utilized on the epic 4g on sprnt with wireless tether

But it has to hve wimax enabled before you open the app, it doesn't make the transistion from 3g to 4g on its own even if you turn 4g on afterwards so I'm guessing itsgonna work the same

Also, I haven't used wireless tether because of sprints hotspot app (they say it requires $30 but it works great for me :P) but that's what I unerstand about it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JFMFT:
Good insight. Thanks for the information!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCX Designs:
If its like the Incredible and EVO, EPST access should work to make tethering free with the official app that comes pre-loaded on the ThunderBolt. Which I assume works with Hotspot switching from 3G to 4G and vice versa when its in range without having do anything special.

rumor has it that the LTE handoff issue that was found to cause the delay of the phone as tweeted by black_man_x, was possibly having to do with the Hotspot app not handing off data control to 3G when 4G was not available and vice versa for Wifi.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JFMFT:
That... would be sweet. Usually built-in apps for tethering/hotspot are among the best. Well, in the case of the Droid X, that was true until Wireless Tether supported infrastructure mode... now that's a lot better, too.

Sounds good to me... waiting for the phone to come out is the hardest part for many of us now.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exeodus:
If you attempt to use the built in app, and they charge extra for that, do you get any kind of warning beforehand? Or do you just get a surprise on your bill? :(
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richB7:
Sprint does not charge for the use of wireless tether but if you use their hotspot they do charge. I don't know if they have the ability to figure out whether you're using tether or they don't care. Now with Verizon LTE who knows?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coontag:
Kinda offtopic but what happened to the most where you can simply delete part of the email address identifier that vzw sees? To use the stoxk tether Does this no longer work?

PS. I forget where those 2 ids are so I'd someone can chime in to refresh my memory that be great
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devoncoon:
You will get a warning if you are not subscribed to a tethering plan. When you tether with the built in app (unmodded) the first webpage you will see from your pc is a VZW page to subscribe to mobile hotspot tethering plan. At this point you simply stop and no charges. From my own experiences.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redsleighdown:
On a somewhat related note, we have some time to figure that out. As a promotion, vzw is allowing free use of the hotspot app on the tb until may 11th!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engagedtosmile:
They told me that the mobile hotspot feature is free for now. I tested it out and it is. Not sure if this is just for new customers or not.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WINGZERO619:
I just finished rooting my TB about an hour ago and finally got the wireless tether app to work. I'm currently running off of it while typing this post on my laptop and it appears to be using the 4G without any issue. It's pretty quick if you have bars showing. I also installed the setcpu and changed the setting to performance. Gotta love this device. Next thing I want to do is hook up my Xbox to my TB while using the wireless tether app and see how well it performs. Cheers!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] destroyerbmx:
when I got my phone they included tethering for free, and my xoom can see the tether, how smart are they?

I am a long time verizon cust and I have been through many android phones with them, this is a promo if you buy the phone before may 15th or something, they told me it will continue to be free but anyone who buys it after may will have to pay for tethering. Always ask for promos anytime you are in the store, sometimes they can just apply it without buying hardware, if they like you.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WINGZERO619:
It's a promo that will last until April or May 15th. I forget. After that, I believe it's an additional 20 dollar charge with a 2GB cap. When you get the tethering app working after rooting your TB, then you don't have to worry about using the hotspot anymore. You can use your tethering app without any cap.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jitajt:
Are you talking about the M.IP setting that has yournumber@vzw3g.com and @dun.vzw3g.com? If so try ##778 send enter 6 0s (000000) and go through the settings till you find username and take the dun. Out and save it. If it is the same as all the other HTC phones that is. It might be a different username because of 4g but the concept is the same, make the dun password the same as the regular one.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HorsexD:
So is the Promo for Free Hotspot Free forever or just now untill the end date? Can comone confirm this? :eek:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WINGZERO619:
I believe the free hotspot option ends on May 15th.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headcheese:
I hope wireless tether is faster. Mobile hotspot I was getting 3 mbps.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProTekk:
I can personally confirm wireless tether from the market works on the thunderbolt once rooted.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lorijuan1024:
I can confirm that the best buy and verizon guy told me this they will charge after the day
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
With the free (for now) built in wireless tether xbox live works great. I played modern warfare 2 for an hour or so. It doesn't use much data at all - the issue is the ping times. On Sprint they were terrible, so much lag, unplayable. On Verizon 4g the speeds are awesome and there was only one second in the hour I played that it lagged and then it was fine. 3 green bars of reception in the game :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Sade:
If I write a text in Word Mobile, any portion of the text can be selected, then copied, pasted, etc... However if I open a document imported from the PC, the same cannot be done. I can select the whole of the document or nothing at all.

Interestingly though, if I open the same file using MyMobiler, I can select anything using the PC cursor. So, why can't the same be done just on the device???
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Android Development] hajloo:
I want to create an application that let user select between diffreent languages (English, Hebrew, Arabic, ...) and when he accept the language, phone (reset, or do something to) change the entire language of the system.

It should be able to change the resource file and calendar.

It would be be nice if user be able to change some resources for hisself, and replace it in resource file.

I'd never work with android applications before, so please explain in detail if it's possible.

And is it possible to do this generally for all android phones? or I have to do it only for topaz?

any idea to do this will appriciated.

Thank you in advance

[Nexus One General] xguntherc:
Hey guys. Phone's been good for a long time. Ran cm6 and CM7 nightlys for a long time.. Tonight is real first big issue

WTH.. I already tried Wiping, and nandroiding.

Now booting with old builds, and new build #33 when the screen goes to sleep after initial boot. I can't get it back on no matter what. Needs a battery pull first. Odd.. I'm hoping something isn't wrong with my nexus one. It's really acting up now.. Basically the phone turns on and runs, but the minute it falls asleep it's done for. I can wake it with my Power button, but only the soft capacitive key's light up. No screen. but I can turn the screen/key's off and on with no problems with the button. Just the screen never comes on. but I can watch those softkey's do it. So the power button is working, but it could be going out. but seems to work every time.

I've officially wiped tonight. I tried a nandroid to a past build, I'm thinking I might have a hardware issue.

Any idea's. Screen wont come on after falling asleep. At all, requires a battery pull. (saw this in CM forum) guy said fix permissions fixed it. any idea's?
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
This might be happening because of the WiFi/BT connectivity bug. If you watch the logcat (or maybe it was in kmesg), you'll probably see lots of errors regarding mmc0.

On the other hand, anything that would get the CPU stuck at 100% throughtput, might do the same, and it might be some other bug.

Try to turn off WiFi and BT and do the same, see if it helps any.
[Nexus One General] xguntherc:
Neither are enabled.. Now it is doing this For sure, completely everytime. I can pull battery and boot phone. Seems to run ok, can open apps. go to market. whatever. but when I go into settings I get Activity FC and it freaks out. I just tried to power off my phone. It's been at the Shutting Down spinning circle part for over 15 minutes. Is it possible the build it 512mb went bad and thats why it can't resume from standby, and stuff?

I'm still testing things. but I've completely wiped and had no luck. and also nandroided to a good working version also. Basically if my phone goes to sleep at all. I can't turn it back on. I have to pull battery.
[Nexus One General] praetorian639:
Same thing here..

Screen will not wakeup from sleep unless I do a battery pull... Any updates?
[Nexus One General] soylapinta:
Its been 1 year since nobody posted, anybody came up with an explanation/solution?

This Issue just appeared in my phone after two years of use.

-When the screen goes to sleep it won't be possible to switch it on again. Either via the power button, time up or proximity sensor.

-The phone and the touchscreen work as always, haptic feedback reveals my unlock slider is still active and the phone can recieve calls and notifications.

-Plugging in the phone or using another button won't revive the screen either.

-The backlight of the screen turns on, but the screen remains black.

-Only removing the battery and waiting at least 10 seconds before putting it in again will let the screen to come back.

-Shouldn't be a software problem as i have wiped several times everything that could be wiped and instaled diffrent Roms, even tested ICS.

-In my case, removing the microSD doesn't change anything.

-Swapping batteries also doesn't help.

Anybody out there with the same problem?

Programmed obsolescense on HTC?
