[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Mystik:
likely possible, just depends on how many frames you would like per second...

The camera seems to be high enough quality to capture the pixels you require but the phone may not be able to process/compress the video stream, given the frame rate you may desire.

I'm not totally sure, but I imagine that's going to be the overall consensus.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DannyDroid:
Cannot be done.

I believe the phone itself couldn't keep up.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dorol:
No enough hardware for 720p on milestone
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] iltimonster:
I believe once you root the phone and overclock the hardware, it should run video at 720p
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] samus777:
is this true?

how would u go about enabling 720p video recording?

that would be awesome!

i have already rooted and overclocked to 900mhz
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Babis_ECE:
I don't know if is it possible since we can't even play 720p .mkv videos, which I believe needs less cpu/ram power than recording 720p videos in high frame rate.

Furthermore, Milestone's camera isn't that good at all, why you would want to record a 720p video with a bad camera sensor? :rolleyes:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] overdigo:
with camera.apk change this is possible?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cry3200:
Playing 720p files is perfectly possible, but recording, hmm maybe at 24 or less FPS so why bother I prefer D1 at 24+ FPS, than laggy 720p,
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] add119:
It should be 720p video recording min requirements are 30 fps rate. Nexus one at best have 25fps. Our phone runs from 30 without root even motorola has specs sheet.. I think it was Verizon who told Motorola not to add 720P video recording. Just to make users upgrade to Droid Incredible and Droid x . In the Froyo update to Droid Last Summer. Milestone will get 720 p video recording in the new update 2.2 os in Europe. You can always talk to Matt from Motorola to verified my statement.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Babis_ECE:
Hi cry3200, could you tell me how do you play 720p .mkv videos??

It's the only thing I wish my Milestone could do and can't get it done. My videos don't play flawlessly whatever video-player/settings I've tried. :(

I only get 720p+ videos and I would love to play them in my Milestone without having to encode them in lower quality...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] scholbert:
Hi there,

first off all i don't need this feature on my phone...

It doesn't make sense to me if the video resolution is higher than the display resolution.

Anyway, no doubt it is quite interesting thing from the technical point of view.

At least some things should be fulfilled:

- hardware support for 720p

- enough bandwitdh on the memory subsystem

- application to handle HD video files

So i took a look into the processors datasheet:

· XGA - 1024 ´ 768 VESA timings at 60 fps (pixel clock = 63.5 MHz)
· WXGA - 1280 ´ 800 VESA timings at 59.91 fps (pixel clock = 71 MHz)
· SXGA+ - 1400 ´ 1050 direct drive of LCD with minimal blanking at 50 fps (pixel clock = 75
MHz)
· HD 720p - 1280 ´ 720 CEA 861-D timings at 60 fps (pixel clock = 74.25 MHz)

Looks like hardware would basically supporting this.

From my point of view the rest of hardware should be powerful enough to handle it as well (at least it is a SoC with PoP memory).

There's also a high speed connection to the display.

Last but not least the CPU is very similar too the one used on beagleboard.

AFAIK you may play HD on this hardware.

IMHO there might be some trouble on the milestone because of the resolution missmatch.

Please correct me if i'm wrong!

Regards,

scholbert
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cry3200:
Just use VPlayer, set the quality in options to Speed or High Quality, and experiment with the buffer for different container types, MKV files should not exceed your card speed I use a class 10 card but the stock is a class 2, but usually I use MP4 720p files that I encode from MKV 1080p, I encode on the GPU so by the time I drink a coffe and smoke a cigarette its almost encoded, original MKV 720p has some audio/video sync issues with VPlayer so I dont use them, but if you overclock to 1.2 or 1.25GHz the sync problems are gone, I dont really remember a bit rate to tell you for encoding, but try with 2000-3000kb/s and see if it works I usually use between 3000-4000kb/s with my card

Just experiment, :D

EDIT: Forgot to mention, not all of the movies encoded play flawlessly but I'd say that 90 percent of them work, but keep in mind you need to overclock to 1GHz minimum so if you don't want to do that it wont work, and use FroyoMod cause its the fastest and most stable rom available, Gingerbread has problems with VPlayer it just crashes; but the problem is VPlayer itself
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Babis_ECE:
Thank you for your answer.

- The only reason i wanted this to work out-of-the-box is to not have to encode, etc.. Just copy the files in SD Card and press Play..

- I am always in 1.1GHz, I will try 1.2GHz..

- I encoded a couple of 720p .mkv files in MP4 with excellent (same I think..) quality with Handbrake and they played absolutely fine in Milestone. I just want to avoid this encoding process.

I will follow your advice and see what happens. First of all I guess I have to change the stock mSD with one faster.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] hefonthefjords:
Thanks for all the replies regarding this. I just figured that since the camera sensor has the pixels it should be able to fire out the extra res. I'm not concerned with the screen mismatch as the videos don't get played back on device, they get put on my computer and youtibe, both of which will benefit from the extra pixels.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms79723:
So...I'm using 2.1 and for some reason when I'm not even using the phoone..the battery drain is ridiculous. Since I'm new to 2.1, does anyone know what is causing this? Any processes I need to end? Any thing I need to remove?

I'm straight up rooted stock 2.1. No custom roms, just a custom kernel. I only downloaded Pandora, Wordfeud and SetCPU.

Edit: I also wanna add that I leave on 4G as well and I see it idle out and when I turn it off and leave it off I still experience the same amount of drain so I dont think its 4G.

And for more details on the drain...I went to sleep for about 3 hours and during that time I went from 91 to 42.

Edit2: Im gonna actually see if maybe it was just the kernel...I was using the first version of a kernel, not its latest version so Im going to put on the latest. But still, Id liike to know if it was a common problem and how most people fixed it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Kill the omadrm process with each phone reboot. (Forgot exact name, but that is close) If you aren't always in a 4g area, having that radio always on will drain the battery.

Edit: Also double check your phone standby time and see what percentage your Time Without Signal (TWS) is at. Toggle Airplane mode after each reboot will correct that bug.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastmikey1969:
Also fyi you can use Tasker to toggle airplane mode for you automatically every boot

It you can just.install spare parts and.look. also check your time without signal. If you don't reset your radio its prolly 50%. Whether.that is.cosmetic or actually does cause a battery drain its still good to do.

Battery life even with removing a few apps is pretty bad.

I think the most I got after a week of tests was about 18 hours and that was with almost no use.

Try downloading JuiceDefender from the market. It's free. What it does really is enable/disable your 3G/4G/WiFi connection when your phone is not in use. It also enables it every 15 minutes (default setting) to get email other updates such as weather. I am not kidding when I say went from an 18 hours to 72 hours hours. Granted, that was with little use.

Can download JuicePlotter as well to get an idea of how your battery is dropping and holding.

Side note that WordFeud constantly runs in the background, so that WILL rape your battery. JuiceDefender will keep it in check. Best app I ever got.

For reference, under 2.1 with JuiceDefender I would lose only about 1%/hour at night when I was sleeping.

Under 2.2 it's more like 2% per hour >.> and I've yet to figure out what's draining it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mi7chy:
I thought I'd chime in since the OP mentioned Pandora. After installing Pandora I noticed my battery drain had gotten significantly worse even when properly quitting out of the app. After uninstalling Pandora battery drain has normalized to the way it was before.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
Also, setting your network to sprint only helps with battery too.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sniperwitagun:
maybe where you live it does, but thats an awful idea if you are in a town with little service because it will spend more time searching for service because it can't roam (i live in the middle of nowhere in new hampshire).

instead try to update your PRL. download the SDX stock app removal apk. remove the drm crap. and reboot. then charge your phone all the way, reboot into cwm, and reset your battery stats. then let the battery drain all the way and recharge. that should improve it significantly. thats what i did and it worked pretty damn well. battery life is upwards of 36 hours nominal charge now. and my phone used to drain battery WHILE i was charging it if i used it at all. and that was with a 1 Amp charger. also dont let your battery overcharge, mine seems to drain easier when i leave it plugged in all night.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Androxyde:
Hi all,

Here is a new beta version of the flashtool that, this time, I hope it will fix the Optimize(JIT) feature bricking phones in 0.2.6 versions

It should install the 0.1 release of xRecovery for E10 too.

FlashTool 0.2.7.1 (beta)

beta.zip to apply to the 0.2.7.1 version : better device detection

beta2.zip to apply to the 0.2.7.1 version : improved again device detection

I don't own a mini or mini pro so I couldn't test it

If some want to give me feedback, it would be great.

I hope this 0.2.7.1 will be the last before release

Thanks to all testers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PressEsc:
bricked it on a fresh installation of 211a06, root didnt work either. did soc root and tried optimize and when it rebootet it got stuck on SE picture
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] movelbit:
jit v2 is optimized to arm7 phones.

x10 mini and x10 mini pro are arm v6, so you should optimize arm v7 phones with JIT v2, and arm v6 with JIT v1.

thats why phone freezes on SE logo.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pedrocel85:
But the creator of the program is working to make it for every x10 in family.

It was a test and dont work, pityfuly.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:
The only thing I think will be ever be useable for the mini/pro (besides flashing firmware) is the Root option as this is basically the same for X10 and e10/u20.

But trying to install the X10 version of JIT and xrecovery on the E10 or U20 is never going to work. (you will need an option to install mini/pro versions in a popup) or another button.. "Optimise mini/pro" (now its getting complicated and messy)

Remember the rule.. Keep it simple (keeping in line with the original Flashtool the main thing is that flashtool can flash firmware, decrypting is nice too.. and root is useful, everything else is too device dependant and there is other software out there to do it simply already) I for one would love a lite version. :)

I have so much software that does so many things but nothing really well because people want to try to do too much. Keep it simple!

Thanks to you and Bin4ry for a great "Flashing" tool.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pedrocel85:

Xrecovery already works for all xperia family(minis, pros, x8 and x10).

Its unified version from Zidzu in Big xperia foruns.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kiwiBratwurst:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Androxyde:
Thank you very much :-)

Another thing about xRecovery :

the charemon script replaces an existing binary that usually do the offline charging.

On X10, this binary has been renamed to charger and is called inside the chargemon script (so that this feature is not lost).

Could I have the chargemon binary from X10 mini ? (the original one before it is replaced by the chargemon script) ?

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Tab General] gregmcs:
I have the verizon tab (US). It has worked great for months then a few days ago it drained the battery in a day with no usage. After a recharge battery is ok, but virtually all programs are constantly crashing. Getting a ton of forced close reports, and the thing is so unstable it is virtually unusable. I have tried soft and hard (factory) reset, and nothing seems to work. Though even after factory reset I see most of old programs still there causing problems.

Any ideas?

I'm afraid It's time to flash.

If you hook up the Tab to Samsung Kies, does it offer any OS updates? if not, I'd take a look at the ROM development section and research the least troublesome method for flashing a fresh rom on a verizon tab

As the title says I think I killed my GSM hero.... I need your help!

here is what happened

I'm new at this and I got a Hero with android 1.5 so I wanted to upgrade to a newer version

I followed instructions on this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645253

I successfully rooted the phone then I tried to flash this ROM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=932377

After reboot the old rom was still there but wiped so I did everything from scratch a couple of times and didn't work.

I did notice the last time that there was an error that I'm sure I didn't see the first few times while wiping SD:ext so I looked for that on the forum and fund the following thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=679991

I followed pseudoremora's instruccions and then tried to flash again, but got stuck on the boot screen...

Now somehow I lost my nandroid backup... I'm not sure what happened but is not with the rest of the things I backed up...

so here is the current status:

Can't boot

Can't flash the ROM

Can't restore the backup.

Is there anything else I can do to fix this? I found another thread that talks about using someone else's nandroid backup (but removing the pieces that contain personal data such as usernames and passwords) if that is possible, would anyone be willing to help?

[General Questions and Answers] CODISDABOMB:
to fix anything clockwork scroll to the very bottom of the app, then click flash alternate recovery. Then when its done then click all clockworkmod recoveries right below it, then select 3.0.0.5, and that should fix most/all problems with clockwork anyone has, and give you the newest update. and to get to recovery easier just use mikfroyo v4.4 like i am. when you hold the power button just click options under power off, and click recovery, and it'll open clockworkmod.

note: i did this while i wrote it to double check it still works after i updated it.
