[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandsrules:
So heres the problem. I've been waiting ages for a good phone that can play videos on the go, but after finding out that my HTC hero (GSM) only supports 2.1 android and cant run iPlayer, i thought i might as well try to install it myself. And thats when it all went wrong. I got UniversalAndroot 2.2 and now my phone just freezes on an "android" logo which was never even there before. What can i do? The only thing i can do is hold down the power and volume down buttons and get into a white screen with two options. Help please....
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tfn:

[Wildfire Android Development] s7mx1:
Summary:

If you want to use real-time streaming including voip over wifi when screen is off please give the customised kerenl a try.

If you want to access windows share on your wildfire please give the customised kerenl a try.

If you want to use multicast applications over wifi please give the customised kerenl a try.

If you want a working wifi on your wildpuzzle rom with the latest kernel please give the customised kerenl a try.

Otherwise please go to jacob's kernel builds page.

All the credit goes to Jacob for his kernel source code http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=798471.

Jacob's kernel build is excellent but it lacks some vital functionality therefore I have went some depth to build my own version which adds the following

1) wifi sleep fix. This is a killer problem for applications sensitive to latency when the screen is turned off. This is caused by the default aggressive wifi power saving policy. This is a permanent fix for anyone experiences voice drop when screen is off during wifi voip call.

2) cifs support. This will enable you to access windows share on your wildfire.

3) multicast. I believe not many people use multicast on their wildfire but its good to have an option.

4) network file systems like nfs and aoe. Personally I have not tested them at all.

5) other small changes which I can not remember

I have built three versions so far and wildpuzzle room users (possibly other sense rom users) please try HCDR.Kernel_0593ef9.signed.zip to guarantee a working wifi. They are zip files can be flashed to any rom. Please take a backup before you flash the kernel and I will hold no responsibility for the result of such flash!!!

HCDR.Kernel_v4.2_606a571.signed.zip this is the latest kernel based on jacob's 4.2

HCDR.Kernel_v4.1_a91e73b.signed.zip this is the kernel based on jacob's 4.1

HCDR.Kernel_0593ef9.signed.zip this is the kernel based on jacob's early version of build

== update 2011-05-23 ===

It looks like jacob has moved on with his zte blade and arco has taken over. I have grabbed arcon's latest stable kernel https://github.com/arco/htc-kernel-buzz/ and build my own with similar kernel configs to my previous modified kernels. The attached flashable zip file is called ARCO.Kernel_eaa7283-22.05.11.signed.zip and I have tested it with CM 7.0.3

Working wifi with screen turned off

Working Bluetooth

Working GPS

Working Wifi hotspot (tethering)

Merge most kernel module into kernel. Now only aoe and wifi modules are installed separately.

I am quite happy with this version of kernel and it seems stable so far. For all kernel bugs please report to arco straight. I would recommend use this kernel with CM 7.0.3 as this is what I am using now.
[Wildfire Android Development] hector28:
wow this is great, does it mean my phone will drain more battery when i leave wifi on?
[Wildfire Android Development] infectedtr:
is "HCDR.Kernel_v4.2_606a571.signed.zip " stable for CM 7 RC1???
[Wildfire Android Development] lemmoned:
Many thx and Really nice work!!!

I confirm HCDR.Kernel_v4.2_606a571.signed.zip is stable for CM7.

Regards
[Wildfire Android Development] aioan:
I am using it with CyanogenMod 7 RC1 and it is stable so far.

But I cannot see any improvement on skype.

Skype on wildfire has a very bad call quality when the screen is off, but works ok when on the loudspeaker (so the proximity sensor is not turning off the screen).

Anyone succeeded skype calls on the wildfire?
[Wildfire Android Development] -Howard-:
Thank you for this im using the 4.1 edit and it seems to be working well if not abit smoother for me at the moment.
[Wildfire Android Development] cantona_xw:
how can i wake on trackball
[Wildfire Android Development] s7mx1:
The wifi should not consume more power if there is no traffic going through while idle.

However if previously you were using "always screen on" as a work around for voip calls then this customised kernel will save your battery as now you can really turn the screen off while on wifi calls, i.e. uncheck the "always screen on" from your sip clients.
[Wildfire Android Development] s7mx1:
You really need to ask skype for that. I have never found skype calls to be acceptable quality with wildfire (constant chopping) even when the screen is on. This tells me its very likely to do with something else other than wifi power saving.
[Wildfire Android Development] s7mx1:
I have no idea. You probably should ask in other threads. I have not taken any functionality away from jacob's kernel build. If you can wake trackball with jacob's kernel then you should be able to do the same with this build.
[Wildfire Android Development] s7mx1:
These 3 builds are all stable. Been running them on my wildfire for over 1 week.

I am currently using the HCDR.Kernel_v4.2_606a571 with CM7 build #17 (pre RC) and quite happy with it.
[Wildfire Android Development] katmant:
I have flashed file but cannot seem to get cifs manager to work. It gives the error about module not present or kernel not supporting. Sorry haven't got error to hand. Am I doing something wrong?
[Wildfire Android Development] s7mx1:
In cifs manager you need to specify to location of the cifs kernel module so it can load up for you.
[Wildfire Android Development] katmant:
@s7mx1

Thanks for these modules, been after CIFS for a while. Looked at cifsmanager again and got it to connect!:cool:

Would you describe the steps to generate these files from the original kernel sources?

Thanks again, well chuffed its all working now :D

when i use JIT on CM7 RC1 with 4.1,4.2 sometimes kernel my device freeze :|. but flash 4.1 stable of Jacob it working great
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
Hi there! I got a wildfire with the SUnAaBh v1.1 ROM.

First I first flashed your 4.2 kernel which caused my device to loop boot

Then I tried your version 4.1 and this did sometimes sporadically cause my phone to hang.

And now I flashed the original 4.1 from jakob which didn't give me any issues, I will wait and see if it hangs again. just wanted to tell you my experiences
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asapelectric:
Very Strange: We have two Heros, one was rooted, one not. The rooted one started having Wifi problems weeks ago, other one worked fine with wifi. Went to get ready to shut them down,( out of service for the kids to play with on wifi), and nothing had been changed yet. I was just testing the wifi, and they both had a lot of problems with it. Then I rooted the other and ran the same rom on both, and they're still having problems. This is not a Wifi problem because we have 2 computers, 3 phones, and 4 dsi, running just fine.( maybe not all at the same time but, alot at any given time. ) I don't understand, I thought maybe the rooted one was the problem, but the other one that had never had anything done to it, is also a problem now.:confused: Anybody having this problem?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laie1472:
What kind of problems??? What rom are you using??? What kernel???

Yea it's me again. The one with the -Modified-Hero
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asapelectric:
It's an AOSP rom. But it was having wifi trouble before we ran that. They're having trouble, reguardless of the rom that is on there. One of them was fine till a week ago, non-rooted.
[Xoom General] theahlenius:
Is there an app that will forward my text notifications from my Droid X to my Xoom?
[Xoom General] Alpha Axl:
Use Google Voice? I intend on doing it that way by just installing the app.
[Xoom General] ashura3:
You can't install Google Voice on Xoom yet as far as I can tell. It doesn't show up in the market app and the webstore says the Xoom isn't compatible.
[Xoom General] theahlenius:
Like the guy above me said, I'm out of luck with Google Voice. I was thinking of something else though.

I know there are a few applications that backup text messages to an email address. Would creating a separate email address (so my phone wouldn't get the notifications) and automatically backing up incoming messages to the new email address be a ghetto workaround? You could add the 2nd email address to the tablet and turn off the forwarding on the phone at any given time.

The reason for the ambiguous "is this a question or an explanation" tone here is that my Droid X apparently has bugs with every application that I wanted to try this out with. I'm going to check out the Droid X forums, but I thought I would bring it up here.
[Xoom General] jackoutside:
Yep, it's a free app and it works great - Remote Web Desktop
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lennita:
Hi

Sorry about my english, Some videos on the youtube app that came with energy rom play the videos but sometimes don't play sound and must set quallity to fast download to correct that. Any way to fix this?

thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] howhi50:
Wish I could help but videos aren't even able to connect for me anymore. It's been like this for about 2 weeks now. Any suggestions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Deleted member 1208057:
Most of the time it's due to the channel's settings, there they can set up if their channel can or can't be viewed through mobile devices.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lennita:
But I can watch the videos, but with no sound in some cases and I have to set to fast download quality, think is a codec problem but dont know

thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
The codec in HTC's Youtube app does not support all high quality videos. Some of them work, but it seems that most new videos are unsupported. This is not able to be fixed by the community as far as I know. The solution would be a new Youtube client. You will have to live with the fast download option as we all do, or move to another, more supported platform. Sorry to disappoint you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lennita:
Too bad

Wich platform will be that?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
Pretty much anything but Windows Mobile. Android, Windows Phone 7, and Blackberry all have fully functional YouTube apps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ai6908:
The ROM chef can fix it. So complain in your respective custom ROM thread.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
I don't mean to be skeptical, but I doubt ROM chefs can just create new codecs out of the blue. Do you have proof of this claim, or a link to somewhere that has an updated audio codec for Youtube?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lennita:
It's dificult to me understand that the problem is the OS instead of a codec or an upgrade of the app. and since soreplayer doesn't work in my TP2 . . .
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
Coreplayer still relies on the built-in codecs. It doesn't play HQ videos either. The problem is not the OS. It is the lack of proper codecs, as mentioned before.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mwalt2:
lol, I was just trying to figure out why youtube wasn't working in my ROM anymore. Glad I found this thread before wasting more time.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mwalt2:
What's the fix?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] devoka:
Can you cook your roms in CDMA (RhodiumW)?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mwalt2:
For my ROM, it turned out to be the dshow package. I needed to use a newer version (from leo or oboe) and a couple of modues from the dshow package from a rhodium shipped rom.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Jackos:
seeM_ZA has narrowed this problem to one library.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] JAmerican:
Could you be a little more specific please?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mwalt2:
Sure, I used a new DShow package (ie Dshow_2_0_20212229_00 from oboe 1.18). The DShow from Leo/Oboe contain some different modules than the DShow from a dumped Rhodium ROM. This got me sound, but no picture. I had to use HtcDXRenderV.dll from a Rhodium Dshow (just this module and registry entries referring to it from Rhodium Dshow .rgu/app.reg), along with the new DShow to get video+sound.

Wild Child was very helpful in pointing me in the right direction, though in the case of my ROM this was all I needed (the fix in his ROM includes many other packages/modules/registry settings).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] shadowgerm:
has this been cooked into any other CDMA TP2 ROMS?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] cajunflavoredbob:
Ask your chef. I'm sure the chef will know.

[Droid X General] craighwk:
Hi everyone. New Droid X user here, as I just moved off my Incredible. Setting up the phone and setting up my Facebook and Twitter sync in the phone's settings. On my INC, I was able to tell Facebook to only sync contacts that currently exist on Google. My original Droid allowed me to do this as well.

With the Droid X, I see no such option to only sync existing contacts, so instead it puts ALL my Facebook contacts into my phone book. It's also doing the same for my Twitter contacts.

I tried to disable the Facebook sync from the phone (which removed the contacts) and add the sync through the Facebook app itself. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have that setting where it was on my INC. I only have options to turn off notifications and that's it.

Can anyone give me pointers here? I want my Facebook contacts sycn'd, but only the ones that already exist in my GMAIL.

I have a feeling this is something to do with Moto's customization. If there's no way to do this, I'll just root the phone and go with a ROM.
[Droid X General] superbay:
You have the Facebook app from the market, right?

As far as i can remember, when you run the app for the first time, you'll be asked to choose for one out of 3 choices after signing in (sync all, sync with existing contact, and don't sync at all). If that's what you want, then you should choose the 2nd option. I don't know if it's any help at all but i hope this works
[Droid X General] craighwk:
At first I tried only with the phones version of the sync and it did not work. I've then downloaded facebook from the market and signed in. It did not give me any option to sync and when I go into the settings there are no sync options there either.

Edited: I decided to Root the phone, installed Liberty, and all is peachy. :D
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SNadler:
I noticed on the Atrix 4G that the pull down notification menu does not have the controls for WIFI, GPS etc. as on the Captivates with almost any of the Roms.

Does anyone know if there is a way to put them back? It was very convienient having them in one spot.

If I missed this or it was already addressed somewhere else or a simple setting I missed I am sorry.

Thanks all!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snlu178:
the Atrix dropdown is basically Vanilla android. They did not change it. So the Captivate must have a tweaked interface that the Atrix does not.

I know there are a few apps that will add this in ongoing notifications but I always felt these were a battery drain.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panflute:
atrix

Get an app from the market place called CONTROL BAR. It works with the Atrix and is excellent for turning everything on & off. Also get LAUNCHER PRO PLUS.

It is a must have and GREAT for Android and for the ATRIX. And read up on how to use it. It disables a lot of the motoblur stuff but that's OK. I have my Launcher Pro configured at 6 colums and 6 rows. You can also configure the size of widgets with Launcher Pro and the screen looks really great on the Atrix. I am going to post a screen shot on XDA shortly.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CC Lemon:
Sorry to go off topic a bit, but kind of related. Is there a way to keep the bar up top with launcher pro? I'd rather have these options tuck away in that drop down menu/bar (like the OP described) than have the widget.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SNadler:
I am currently using an app called quick settings which is acceptable and works fine. It is another app though. I would just assume have the pull down notification have access to the items that are on the other roms. I am dying to flash a new rom but will patiently wait for the Dev's to make it safe to do so.

I thought someone might have found a setting or something I was missing to acomplish adding the items back to the pull down.....
