Quadrent is just a crap number and means nothing in real performance. I was getting 1500 with TnT lite but it felt snappy and responsive. I got 3000 average with gadam but it felt clunky and unresponsive with long app loads. Don't worry about quadrent s much. The data2loop hack for vegan 5.1.1 boosted I/O read writes so that ups the quadrant but is very prone to data corruption and the only benifit I saw was watching flv video from internal memory was smoother. Lots of random black screen shutdowns with the hack. I would reccomend against using it.

Hmmm, seems like they've released a microUSB to USB adapter for supposedly transferring pictures.

Here's the link

http://www.motorola.com/consumers/X...toid=74686948cc47d210VgnVCM10000081bbb00aRCRD
[Xoom General] SmokeMasta:
dumb question ... if it pulls the data trough usb .. what stops us just hooking up memsticks etc to it ?
[Xoom General] konman795:
It shouldn't affect anything at all. And even if it does, I can see the awesome xda community making it work with flash drives and such since moto didn't lock down the xoom :)
[Xoom General] SKaustin:
So then presumably Honeycomb has camera profiles, so it will recognize when I connect a camera and offer to import pics? If this is what it does, then this is a relief. I could just get a generic microUSB cable for my camera and skip buying this almost-certainly-overpriced dongle from Motorola.

Although apparently the Toshiba has a built-in full-size USB that wouldn't require this dongle or special cable. I'm going to continue to see how things shake out over the next month before I decide which to buy.
[Xoom General] arrtoodeetoo:
Some more info from an engineer who worked on the XOOM. (Link)

keith_4g:

"I am the engineer who designed the hardware for USB on the Xoom. I can confirm that the hardware is capable of supporting any USB 2.0 (or earlier) device using the host mode adapter cable. The software will, however, have limitations. The software that will be shipping on the Xoom will only have support for USB keyboards. I cannot guarantee this, but I have been told that support for camera connection will be available at some point. This should enable the Xoom to also detect some phones as digital cameras. As far as flash drives and external hard drives are concerned, I don't know whether or not they will be supported.

For those of you looking to buy the adapter, please do not buy a standard micro-USB to USB adapter. It is not going to enable host mode on the Xoom. The adapter sold by Motorola has the ID pin set to host mode, and the generic adapters you can buy online will not."

I'm confident that the great minds at XDA will have this exploited before Monday. :)
[Xoom General] joeski27:
I second this! This feature is very important for me, and I hope it gets squared away in the next few weeks!

After using UOT Kitchen, my lockscreen tabs are messed up. I found the culprit files, jog_tab_bar_right/left_pressed.9.png, and I replaced them with the ones from the stock framework, using apktool, however, the resulting file still had incorrect lockscreen tabs! Can anyone help?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
Use apktool 1.3.1. You are probably using 1.3.2.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] NickHu:
Ah, thank you, but.. Why? :P

EDIT: Didn't work :(
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
apktool 1.3.2 tends to do such things, there's this weird bug. do a search i'm too lazy to find the link lol.

anyway its probably because the stock framework also has ugly sliding tabs nowadays. get it from an older nightly, it will probably work.

edit: btw, is that the mario live wallpaper? i need to get it again loll lost it a long time ago when i was switching to cm6
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] NickHu:
I tried with apktool 1.3.1 (All previous versions are on the googlecode page) and it still didn't work :/ And I have the suitable replacement graphics, it's just, it won't stick after I recompile. The Mario live wallpaper is on XDA.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] nhnt11:
Strange... are you sure you're replacing the right images?

And yup I kno abt the Mario wallpaper :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] NickHu:
Definitely sure, I replace, compile, decompile, images different :(

Does anyone have a good picture of the microUSB port on the Thunderbolt? I have been searching but haven't found a clear picture. I am trying to figure out if I need a right angled microUSB cable or a left angled microUSB cable. I would like the microUSB cable to go down. Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for that link! If I'm looking at everything right, it would seem a left angled microUSB is the way to go.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] contractkilla:
no problem glad i could help. yea if you want the cord to go towards the bottom of the phone it seems like that would be what you want. :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ITGuy11:
Where do you get the right angle cables from?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rotorocker:
I would assume a site like monoprice.com has them
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rednoved:
Unfortunately, it does not look like monoprice has any angled cables. That was the first place I checked. The cables I found are made by StarTech. They sell them directly from their website, or they can be purchased through other sites like newegg.com.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rotorocker:
You're correct
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
I will be looking to get one of these also
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychomaniac189:
why do you want one of these? just curious i might want the benifit of using one of these too!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rednoved:
I personally want one for my vehicle. I have a phone mount to the right side of my radio. Since the charging port is on the left side of the phone, this new cable will allow the phone to charge without interfering with my radio contols, and it will look nicer when charging.

The new cable will go straight down and into the 12V adapter. Should look nice. :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oxirane:
My friend had a samsung impression (not an android) with an unlimited data plan. She's looking into getting a captivate off craigslist as her phone went spazz... Will her data plan be compatible or will at&t force her to upgrade to another kind of data plan?

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liveify:
Because thats not a smartphone I am assuming she has the feature phone data plan. So yes she will have to go to either the $15 for 200mb or $25 for 2gb data plans
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] white00gt:
Depends what type of data plan it is because I have the unlimited data plan that included all options for a smart phone on my wifes line because she was getting one in the very near future and didn't have to make any changes although they will try and get you to drop it, walk into a Best Buy store if you have one near and let them check it out for you- I have used them for my last few upgrades and have had no issues- They ironed out the issue when ATT tried to convince me my unlimited data plan had to go
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJC3 Designs:
I have heard from different sources that ATT will force you on the data plan they think you should have
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bennijai:
Your friend already has the unlimited data plan so under the grandfather rule she will continue to have it unless she decides to cancel it for another data plan. But once you cancel it you can never get it back.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curti.nogg:
It needs to be the smartphone data plan to be grandfathered.

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MaXAiRO:
Only phones with native mkv video format support can play .mkv videos efficiently. So, forget about mkv, it doesn't matter which player you use. But anyway, the best video player for me is RockPlayer.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] budyn2h:
Try Vital player. It supports SMI and SRT subtitle files.

But i don't try mkv files. It should work coz rmvb works.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] LOocifur:

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] lewrydiboys:

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] ZetaiZetsubou:
Mediacoder

I think the best method would to just burn the subtitles into the encoded video...

Furthermore, MKV container can support a lot of different video (most commonly h.264)...

either way, it would be beneficial to convert to h.264 video and aac audio in mp4 container... Then virtually all target devices can play the file. You'll run 720p that way a lot better too (480p ideally to save space)

So, if you have a nvidia card with PureVideo2 I definitely recommend this method...(or a decent cpu)

mediacoder has cuda encoder bundled with it to make quick work of video->mp4

Here are some of my settings that I use in Winmo, plays back flawlessly on android too.

Video:

Avg bitrate - 1200 (you can set it higher if you want... you'll just get a bigger file size with marginally better quality imo)

Format - h.264

Encoder - Cuda (NVidia cards) , ffmpeg (cpu encoding)

Audio:

Format - LC-AAC

Encoder - FAAC

Avg Bitrate - 128 MPEG4

Container - MP4 (select it in both audio and container tab)

Picture:

Resize - 800x480

Aspect Ratio - Set pixel AR, 1:1

Crop - Disabled

Subtitle

Renderer - Default

Scale, position, outline, blur) - adjust for subtitle appearance

ID - 0 to # (set according which subtitle you want to use from the source video

These are just some loose settings to get you into ballpark range...

make sure you preview before you encode a bunch of files and make sure it works on the device.

I also think there is a "portable device" edition of mediacoder

Sorry for the long post.

[Samsung Mesmerize] jdieken:
Hey Gang-

Looking at getting a new 2011 Chevy Silverado. One of the new features is bluetooth. As I look at the truck bluetooth specs, US Cellular isn't listed as a service provider, nor did I see any provider that sports a Samsung Mesmerize in their phone list (gm.com/bluetooth). Wondering if anyone has a new Chevy and uses the bluetooth. This was one feature I am interested in. Any info would be great!

Question short version: Is the USCC Mesmerize compatible with the new Chevy bluetooth?

-Deke
[Samsung Mesmerize] AndroidTipster:
Even if it doesn't suport bluetooth for the mesmerize, "but I'm fairly sure it does" most new trucks come with a	AUX connector.
[Samsung Mesmerize] sageDieu:
There's no reason why it shouldn't. USCC is just a smaller carrier, usually only big name brands show up in lists like that. The carrier doesn't have anything to do with the Bluetooth anyways... that would be like a wifi router listing computer brands that can connect to it, it isn't related.
[Samsung Mesmerize] JayRHamlin:
It will most certainly work to some degree. The bluetooth interfaces that newer cars have do not only audio but caller ID, contact lists, etc through the factory radio. I used to be in the mobile electronics industry and I have noticed that some phones that "weren't compatible" still worked, they just did not utilize all of the features. That generally happens with older phones though. I would be very surprised if any Galaxy phone didn't have full functionality through any new car BT system. I have an aftermarket BT radio in my car that is 6 years old and it works mint. Go to the dealer and test it out, it only takes a minute to pair it up.
[Samsung Mesmerize] jdieken:
I appreciate the encouraging info. I am headed to the pick up a new truck tomorrow, so I will be able to answer this question with certainty and will report back! :D
[Samsung Mesmerize] sageDieu:
I'm sure they would let you sit in the truck and test drive it, at which time you could play with the Bluetooth.
[Samsung Mesmerize] jdieken:
Bluetooth works like a charm! It pairs very easy (actually speaks the pairing instructions through the truck speakers during set-up). No problems at all! Thanks for the info!

[Epic 4G General] incisivekeith:
I have Odined back, yet again, to the Stock ROM, waiting for the OTA update, as I read several posts claiming they did not have all or many issues that others, who had manually updated, have.

I found this post from Boardreader.com and the OP claims to have found a way to force and update for Samsung Vibrant. I was wondering if someone with the right knowledge can confirm this for the Epic. An extract of the method is as follows:

"I have searched around and I couldn't find anyone that has mentioned this before. If you really want the JI6 and don't want to use Kies and when you hit the "software update button" it shows "no firmware" I found a way to force it. 1) go into the launcher pro activities shortcut 2) scroll down to device management 3) select "com.wssyncmldm.wssAppDmUiMain" and hit ok 4) Open the shortcut and hit ..."

Is someone aware of a working method for forcing an OTA on the Epic? I have read conflicting reports about how the server prioritizes the devices for an update, but, just for the purpose of information, I have been with Sprint since October and am in Upstate NY.

[Epic 4G Themes] sfal8705:
Where did u get the icon set that you are using for the app n is that launcher pro?
[Epic 4G Themes] dreamsforgotten:
The icons are based on a pack called Delta Icons but we (me and Zhkilla) modded them to suit my theme. The icon pack is included with the ADW add on. You download the apk in that link, install it on your phone like any other, then goto menu-more-adw setings-theme preferences-select your theme and select Dreamsforgotten Crystaline, it installs and sets up everything no need to press each icon and tell it to change to a custom one. If you haven't tried the new ADW, I'd give it a shot you can uninstall it if you don't like it. If you are dead set on LP, then I can provide a zip of all the icons seperate so you can mimic what I have done in ADW but you won't get the clean dock bar I'm using. It's not one image it's actually 12 .9pngs that turn blue when you touch each section of the dock bar.

I chose ADW launcher cause I can write a theme for it that you just install instead of having to goto each setting and set them individually. I'm going to adw theme every theme in the future so the market and system apps match what I'm doing with the flashabe.zip.

Also any updates to this theme, UI tweaks, code changes will be delivered via metamorph so I would install it if you haven't yet. I put daily updates out on twitter too, if you want to know where I'm headed next. Anything else, just hit me up
