[Nook Color General] BGrutter:
For clarification, the desktop YouTube site also works fine. Its just got something to do with the app not functioning properly, I believe.
[Nook Color General] timekeeper:
Not the app exactly, CM7 doesn't have DSP/hardware graphics working, which the youtube app relies on. It is being actively worked on, and seeing as it is a nightly - not even a release candidate...
[Nook Color General] Admiral Shovel:
Live wallpapers

I flashed the lastest nightly version 3 and now I no longer have access to live wallpapers, even new ones downloaded from the market don't show up anywhere long pressing on the home screen and selecting wallpapers gives me the option of either cyanogenmod wallpapers or gallery any help?
[Nook Color General] bassrebel:
Edit:

Found the answer
[Nook Color General] newellj79:
Hi guys. Been following threads in development section for a long time. I'm running nightly v3 oc'd at 1.1ghz. Everything works great except the known bugs; market, you tube, and video not fully functional. I thought I had seen a post in the dev forum for tweaks to settings (animations and such) to speed things up, but I can't find it. Anybody have recommendations? Thanx
[Nook Color General] Admiral Shovel:
I believe the tweak you saw was under spareparts change window animations and transition animations to fast or instant
[Nook Color General] dtownsend:
Looks like the live wallpaper packages aren't in the nightlies though they were in the original RC. Not sure why.
[Nook Color General] newellj79:
Anybody familiarwith the backup/restore procedure for cm7. Is it done with the included rom manager, u can't save on the ext4 card u made for original install, where do u save, etc? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[Nook Color General] jd95:
I am new to the nook color but flashed my phone a lot. What I was wondering do I have to boot cm7 from my sd card, or can I boot it from the phone?
[Nook Color General] BGrutter:
You can write CM7 to the internal storage. The easiest way is with the SDcard Bootable CWM.

From what I understand, there are currently issues with the EXT2 and EXT3 file base that is native to the NC and the fact that Gingerbread (and therefore CM7) runs off of EXT4. The only CWM Recoveries that you can flash via Rom Manager are 3.0.0.2 and 3.0.0.5 which don't function with EXT4. Whereas 3.0.0.6 does work with EXT4, but must be run via bootable SDcard (there is a way to trick the system into working as stated elsewhere, but that takes extra work).

I should state, I really don't know anything about these file conflicts, but this is just what I can surmise from what I've read on the forums. To be honest, I was sort of hoping for a more concise and accurate explanation. So, perhaps someone with greater understanding will chime in ... ;)
[Nook Color General] lafester:
anyone able to take screenshots with cm7?

tried 3 different apps. all i get is a black screen.
[Nook Color General] timekeeper:
You can save on the CWM microsd if you picked an image with sufficient space. I'm not sure if you can do a nandroid backup with the internal cwm though, you might, considering it backs it up to a series of images. Your best bet would be to use a large enough microsd and 3.0.0.6 image, then use the nandroid off that.
[Nook Color General] BGrutter:
This is what confuses me:

When I use CWM on my phone, it knows to save a backup to my SDcard since. The SDcard is essentially the slave drive. However, if I'm running CWM off of a burned SDcard, will it know to write the backup to the same SDcard or will it look for a slave of its own?

That might seem a bit 'out there', but just the way my mind works.
[Nook Color General] liqn7:
What's battery life like on CM7?

cheers :)
[Nook Color General] painter_:
I have done backups, they are saved to the bootable sdcard.
[Nook Color General] hboot2.02:
cm7

ok ive burned my sd card with the cwm inamge for ext4 and flashed everything successfully but my question is.. wil i have to flash updates the same way? just replace the nightly.zip with the updated one and boot up and flash via cwm 3.0006 and then be done?
[Nook Color General] newellj79:
Copy the nightly over to your ext4 SD card, boot into recovery, flash it over everything else. No need to format anything, this will preserve your data and settings. After nightly is flashed u will have to reflash your overclocked kernel if u r using one.
[Nook Color General] hboot2.02:
now where can i find the most recent nightlies again lol. ? thanks for the great help
[Nook Color General] hboot2.02:
fyi

just an fyi to everyone trying to burn an ext4 sd. i am using win32 disk imager to burn it and i kept getting error 8. so i had to reformat my sd card a few times still to a fat32 but i flashed it three times before i was able to burn the ext4 image. i dont know if anyone else had that problem or not but it worked for me. hope it helps.
[Nook Color General] newellj79:
I used win32img for a 4gig card and it worked fine. Here is the link for all cm7 nightly.

Doh! It wont let me post an outside link. Go over to cyanogenmod.com, its easy to find. The development name for the nook color is, encore.
[Nook Color General] hboot2.02:
Sweet thanks. I tried looking there before but nothing ever came up when I clicked on the encore link ill try it again though. And I don't know why I had a problem then but it worked so I am happy lol.
[Nook Color General] newellj79:
Hope you found the link. I'm really only writing to get my post count up. There is a bunk rule that you have to post 10 times here before you can in the developer forum.
[Nook Color General] newellj79:
Does anybody know how to add Widgets to the lockscreen in cm7.
[Nook Color General] Chahk:
There are options to add battery percentage and music widgets to lockscreen right in settings. For other widgets you'll need to use a 3rd party lock screen app.

Old news. Do a forum search before posting. Thanks.
[Desire General] Meaple:
Indeed old news. Get a 2.3 custom rom then you don't have to wait :P
[Desire General] vjmcdonnell:
I'm using gingervillian and its fast and stable. Not bad on battery with the right kernel
[Desire General] mayad79:
Imagine 2.3 with SENSE. Wow.
[Desire General] eddiemerckx:
Yes, Wow :p

I've had my share of Sense and I'm seriously considering another brand just to avoid Sense (although Moto Blur and Samsung's skin isn't really better)
[Desire General] erklat:
Please define how sense tired you? I hope that aren't just widgets?
[Desire General] madd0g:
- ROM takes up valuable internal space

- more RAM usage

- launcher is a joke (3 shortcuts, one of them is to put on shortcuts and widgets? yeah like i do that every 5 minutes)

When you see that the most presented features about newly announced HTC phones are "notification bar power control shortcuts" and "drawer that scrolls per sections", then you know they're just fiddling about. So Sense, please **** off.
[Desire General] getan:
I thought they said that they'll have gingerbread out for the desire around Q2 of this year?
[Desire General] T3D0nG:
do inform me how to do this. would like to have a change.
[Desire General] eddiemerckx:
Sense (in my opinion) is just bloatware. The widgets are a nice extra but the overall graphic make-over is unneeded in the Android revisions currently rolling out.

It may have been needed in 2.1 and 2.2 but 2.3 really doesn't need a new graphic layer.

The social network integration into the contact system is nice but nobody uses it the way HTC intended it to be used (I.e. someone calls you, you check the social network status and have a topic to talk about).

Facebook as a standalone app can also add pictures to your contacts.

I'm terrified about what HTC is going to do to Honeycomb! Imagine them throwing a Sense layer on top and adding that ridiculous pen input.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
You don't have to use the pen with the tablet if you don't want (that's how I understand it anyway)

In some instances it would probably be good - i.e. drawing pics in paint or whatever - or for handwriting notes - I find it frustrating on notes on my desire at the moment, where on my Touch HD it was easy with the stylus!

It's nice to have the option anyway...
[Desire General] FastPete:
Would be nice to get the official update asap. I tried the gingervillian rom but it got stuck on the villianrom boot screen :(
[Desire General] sindresv:
Quit *****ing about Sense and buy an Nexus S! HTC has Sense and I love it! I'm really looking forward to get Gingerbread with Sense, but I really hope they skip the 2.3 and go straight to 2.4 Gingerbread :D
[Desire General] FastPete:
Agreed! :D, I have only had the desire for a week now and i love the sense ui. Just wanted to have a look at gingerbread
[Desire General] Epsis:
"Great news for HTC Desire family owners – it has been reported HTC will be releasing the Gingerbread (Android 2.3/2.4) update for the HTC Desire family after the new Desire S goes on sale.

Wow it hasn’t been officially announced by HTC, the information was apparently coerced out of an HTC rep at the Mobile World Congress this week. While it’s no confirmation, HTC has been proven to be pretty reliable with their Android updates and there should be no reason to why it won’t stay that way. The HTC Desire family includes the HTC Desire, HTC Desire HD and HTC Desire Z (hopefully this means the G2 as well).

With no other phones announced to have official Gingerbread updates and the Nexus S remains the only phone to have Gingerbread, it’s about time some phones started getting Android 2.3/2.4. At least Desire users aren’t still stuck on 2.1."

Not what Ubergizmo is saying. :D Keep the faith, people - HTC have been good to us. :P
[Desire General] erklat:
I use Sense roms only. No one forces you to use sense launcher if you don't like it, every sense rom has default Android launcher too. I tried a few aosp roms until I found out that sense doesn't have to be used, but you still get the rest of the great stuff like name prediction when making a call, or a slight vibrate when call connected for example. Only thing that sucks is that we are stuck with 2.6.32 kernels at this moment.

About memory consumption they are equal or sense even more efficient, and the same goes for speed. You don't get aosp related bugs either.
[Desire General] madd0g:
Basically not 1 plus over AOSP (T9 dialing apps on market, vibrate when connected is in CM), EXCEPT you get more internal space with using a AOSP ROM. Now extra 200MB+ over a crappy interface ? Anytime.
[Desire General] bustervic:
Is there an ASOP rom that has face detection or touch to focus though? I am a heavy user of the camera and video and so far have been pretty disappointed at the lack of those in the 2.3 roms.

I would say that the email and text widgets are better thought out than the standard 2.3, or market ones.
[Desire General] erklat:
Heard about a2sd+ scripts? Data2sd?

Internal memory size is more than irrelevant with either of those. And the epickest are those who resort to changing partition tables to get moar internal space. Kudos. :rolleyes:

Hope you didn't do that :D
[Desire General] esk02k:
Me too. These people hating on sense, did you not read the back cover of your

phone when you bought it? Its pretty clear "WITH HTC SENSE" lol.

Ive got nothing against vanilla android, my first android phone was one

and I had become bored of it so when I got my desire it was a breath of

fresh air. Thats just my opinion though, each to their own.

Anyway, Gingerbread sense does look a little disappointing. I prefer the

power control mod i already have in my theme, also in the videos it looks

like they removed the CRT style screen off animation. Thats disappointing

if its the case.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chewedpup:
Just rooted 5 days ago with AOSP baseband version 2.42.02.10.29, Kernel Version 2.6.29.2, Mod version aospMOD 0.9.9.2 and am just finding my phone is bugging out!

OK!

1. The lock screen. Initially to unlock the phone, press on it and slide it to the right. Now, when I press on it, instead of being able to slide it, it jumps around to the left back and forth and is VERY difficult to slide to the right. It acts like it's avoiding me and trying to escape. Took me over a minute to unlock my phone this morning. When I first rooted, it was easy. Now, not so much.

2. Thrilled that I can now voice-dial with my motorola blue-tooth, I am getting the weirdest thing. When my blue tooth is paired and connected, if someone calls, the phone doesn't ring at all, it just rings through the bluetooth (well, the voice notifies me) and I get "call on line one". I have set my contacts for individual ringers so I know who's calling by listening to the song, but now, no ring at all through the phone. Phone is completely silent. If I unplug the bluetooth, the phone rings, but when bluetooth on, no ring. This never happened before. I have triple-checked all the settings and cannot make sense of this. Before, I could have the bluetooth on, and the phone would ring according to the individual ringers.

3. When someone calls and I talk to them through bluetooth, if they hang up and I don't immediately end the call through the bluetooth, my music player leaps into life and starts playing through the blue tooth. Not fun to get a deafening song blasted through your eardrums - this is the music player that was loaded when I rooted, I have again checked all settings and cannot figure out why this happens. So now, if I don't end the call immediately manually, a song starts blasting, and I have to unlock the phone (which is tricky at the moment), open up the music player and manually stop the song and exit out of music player.

My loaded apps are as follows (ones I got from Marketplace):

adobe reader

alarm clock

Astrid tasks

B-Folders

Barcode scanner

convertpad

google sky map

home switcher

latitude

maps (google maps)

memory (game)

Multicon

Shootme

Swiftkey

Titanium Backup

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
try a full wipe and reflash the rom/gapps, etc.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chewedpup:
Thanks. I might try that if I get desperate, but it's such a hassle, wiping everything and then getting the phone back to the way I like it. As a last resort, sure... but I'll see what happens. Just so you know, suddenly, after not using my phone most of the day, the ring tone suddenly started working, so that with the blue tooth on, the phone's ring tone actually rang - so that's a good thing, even though at the moment, I can't unlock it at all - the unlock button just leaps away from me when I touch it. oh well.

[HD2 General] ConanMan:
Hi I am using the 3.15 ROM so my SPL is 3.03 and I need to downgrade to something in

this list below

SPL 1.42.0000 SPL 1.42.HSPL
SPL 1.62.0000
SPL 1.66.0000 SPL 1.66.HSPL
SPL 2.07.0000
SPL 2.08.0000 SPL 2.08.HSPL

However when I go to the HTC site for the uk and pick the earliest HTC HD2 VODAFONE (UK) ROM (version 1.74) it won't install it says the usb cable is not connected even though it blatently is fine. IF I simply use my SN I get a list of *one* from HTC. If I go up a level to all available downloads I can scroll through and hand pick about 4 or 5 roms. So. I am going to systematically reapply all the HTC UK VODAFONE ROMS tonight to see if ANY of them take but I fear they will not.

So...

How can I downgrade? People talk about it but to be honest I think there needs to be some clarity aon all of the following issues.

How to downgrade SPL when it isn't available on the HTC site

How TO install HSPL

HOW To uninstall HSPL
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
Go to HD2 WinMo Development, there is a thread lists all the OEM ROMs .. Pick yours (1.42 or 1.66) and run the exe .

If it still says cable not connected then rename .exe to .zip and extract the rom and rename it to leoimg.nbh, put it on your sd card and boot into bootloader.
[HD2 General] ngocop:
My way

Before I went to work today, I had deliberately flash my HD2 with the latest ROM. and consequently, my SPL was upgraded to the 3.03... I downloaded the old one from HTC..ROM 1.66 and flash it like normal on my HD2..as in just running the program

To my surprise...my current SPL after the ROM downgrading is back to the awaited 1.400

so..please find a way so that your HD2 can connect with the PC/Laptop and just run the program...

hopefully..it will do wonders..

So RockPlayer has almost never failed me - would play anything I threw at it.

Last night I tried to play a video, which is a 720p AVI - approx 150MB, and it lagged like a beast.

I updated to the new "Rockplayer Lite" - same issue. Tried several different video players in the market with the same results.

Is this a hardware limitation of the SNS or Android as a whole? Or have I just not found the right app?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csmall:
I've been experiencing lag/jitter in pretty much all multimedia (videos/games) since the last Gingerbread update. It's nothing horrible though. I'm not sure if I installed an app or a widget that is having an impact on my device or if something changed. It was a lot smoother before the last update for me. *shrug*
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fchipm:
Hm it's tough to discern then I guess if I'm having an issue like you or that this particular file is just too much for the apps to handle. That's why I like Rockplayer - no need to convert anything.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csmall:
If you have a pretty powerful computer and you're always on wifi or have good 3G/4G (unlimited) you could try the new Plex app and stream all your movies to your phone.

Will always lag until we can get proper video codecs implemented into android...then you can run rockplayer in hardware decoding mode and will run/look perfect

ATM you're running in software mode for anything other than mp4
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uralpongkhi:
Hi,

Can you please guide me on how I can implement video codec in my SNS so that I can play 720p without lagging
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsunami1609:
I used to use Rockplayer and it was pretty good, but on my SNS it barely held up while playing a 480p mkv(matrosaka) videos. I'd say try moboplayer. It's definitely better, and it even can read and display embedded subtitles if your watching a movie/show in a different language. Plus the interface is so much cleaner. And best of all, it's free in the market.

It can barely play 720p mkv and sometimes freezes, but when it does play it the video and audio are right on the mark. I haven't tried 720p avi but from what I've seen, it's harder to play mkv than it is to play avi.

Try it out.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
with Rock Player you can use it to play 720p using hardware decoding.. no lag but no audio is being outputted

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritalin:
I think you should try setting the bitrates for 3g, wifi and remote wifi manually.

Here are mine, bare in mind I have a 35/35 FIOS connection.

3g= 720kbps or 1.5Mbps -depending on my connection at the time.

Remote Wifi = 2Mbps

Local Wifi = 3-5Mbps

I am on the beta team for Plex. As of right now the Auto feature is for lack of a better word DUMB.

I can watch a high bitrate 720p file over remote wifi on my Xoom and it looks nearly perfect. There are a few quality issues but nothing that kills it.

NOW if you have a file thats 720p or 480p that WILL play natively on your Nexus, you can turn on Direct Play and Direct Stream in the settings. If you have enough bandwidth to support it, the file WILL play without transcoding, thus no quality loss at all.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewisgalea:
Quite often (few times per day) when typing SMS, the keyboard stops responding for a few seconds then goes insane and starts typing random letters by itself, even sometimes holds backspace itself and deletes the whole message. I have to leave it alone for a few minutes/force close because otherwise it keeps on doing it. This only happens when typing SMS, no other app/activity is affected.

I have tried calibration reset which didnt work, and have also reduced the number of messages per thread from 100 to 30 which also hasnt worked. This is very frustrating, as sending SMS sometimes takes more than twice as long.

The phone has not always done this, just the last few months.

Running Froyo build 2.29.405.5 (latest one I believe)

Any solutions?

Has anyone else had this issue?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icysoul:
Well, you might first backup your messages, contacts and any other personal data using your favorite app (sms backup and restore on the market, for sms, and for contacts just sync them using your gmail account - titanium back-up for the rest - as suggestions), then do a reset to factory defaults.

Another solution would be to root then flash different roms, of course :)

This is a last resort if all else fails.

The problem isn't keyboard related. I have tried Handcent which did not have the issue, but (suprisingly) I didn't get along with it, it was far slower than the stock HTC messaging so I switched back and stomached the issue I'm having. What is htc_ime?
