[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] chaoscreater:
I need help with this too. I live in Auckland and use Vodafone NZ. Originally, my milestone came installed with Froyo (v2.2) and it was the Europe version I believe......both 2G and 3G works fine on it, however I have problems with the wifi like many people have.

So then I later flashed to the New Zealand v2.1 SBF, and now wifi works fine but I can't get any connection to Vodafone. The reason is basically because Vodafone doesn't support Milestone, only Telecom XT does. However, if I switch the network from 2G to 3G, then I can connect to Vodafone. I can also connect to 2Degrees, I can see all 3 networks (Telecom, Vodafone, 2Degrees) when I'm on 3G and I get about 3/4 bars constant so it's stable.

But when if I switch to 2G, I get completely no bars and can't detect any networks at all. Not a big deal but I wanna use 2G to save battery. When I was using the Europe SBF (the v2.2 Froyo that came pre-installed with the Milestone), I was able to use 2G no problem.

Anyway, I think a simple baseband change should be fine, but I'm not sure which one I should use that works well with Vodafone NZ.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] consolation:
The baseband has to match your handset's capability. Xt units lack the Vodafone 900 band, they have 850 instead. Both carriers use 2100 in the CBD. Vodafone has also 2g network that has crap coverage. I'm using my xt set with Vodafone, but there's no point changing the bb as xt ms can't do 900 anyway. Basically get ****ty GPRS except right in town. It's only used as car GPS/stereo so no biggy for me.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] chaoscreater:
but mine isn't originally an XT Milestone, I bought it 2nd hand on Trademe and the original owner of the phone got it from somewhere else. It's just that I flashed the New Zealand v2.1 SBF, which just so happens to be for Telecom since there isn't one for Vodafone......

Plus, it was able to work fine on 2G when I was using the Europe v2.2 (Froyo) SBF, so I don't see why a simple baseband change isn't possible?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] consolation:
Check the exact model number, most of the ones floating in nz are telecom models, no matter what the previous owner was using it with. You can change basebands as much as you want, if it doesn't match your hardware it just won't work. I.e. you will not have 3g outside of main centres. Afaik, 2g is the same on all models.

So, install OR, then one of the cyanogen based roms (it has all nz apns). Boot into or, there's a list of basebands - try till you get one that works.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] agent17liuhanqing:
Have you set your APN setting right?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] consolation:
Cyanogen based roms have all the nz apns, otherwise, you have to put the correct one in.
[General Questions and Answers] sitoekim:
Seems like I am having a little bit of a problem with tethering. Problem is people can tether off me but I can't send a signal to them. My question is the problem that I am having the kernal that I am using or my rom perhaps? I am using the nameless rom now with a overclocked Hydra kernal. I have looked every where for help no answers as of yet. I don't think its the tethering apps that I am using because I able to receive a signal just not give a signal. Any advice or help would greatly be appriciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zadusimple:
Hello Everyone

I read numerous threads on XDA , where people are happy of what they get in a custom ROM, however still (like every human being) they want some additional features to be incorporated in a custom rom. So i decided why not check with people out there on XDA what they want if they were the primary stake holders when someone created a custom rom. So what features you think are still missing or needs improvement in the custom rom out there on XDA?

(P.S.- I respect all developers out there on XDA for putting coutless hours and days to make a custom rom. I also appreciate their efforts, but there is always a scope for new features and continuous improvement. )

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ecclesiatic:
Decent player although its surely another galaxy s video player ripped and feature packed. That said Rockplayer being the other galaxy s rip will likely copy all features found here.

sent from my Nexus S XDA Premium App because I'm worth it :-)

Thanks.

Unfortunately, it doesn't see the video taken by my Nexus S....

It does you have to select the camera folder on SD card and will search for media files in that directory
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zadnica:
Thanks. Best player!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] zephiK:
Works the same as Rock Player for me. RockPlayer decodes 720p (mkv) fine but theres no audio. Regular .avis have sound

Definitely nice video player though, I'll keep it :)

As usual, can't play anime mkv videos without doing slow-mo. I think vlc is the only third party app that can compete with the galaxy player.

Can someone help me, I have installed moboplayer on my Nexus S and I am have a few questions.

1. When I connect my Nexus S to my computer what folder/directory should I be putting my video files in?

2. When I start moboplayer on my Nexus S, I am also confused about which folders I should choose. Also, when I start moboplayer I get "there's no SD card, make sure it is usable".

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] demo23019:
Highly recommend using dice player for best HD playback becasue it uses hardware acceleration unlike mobo, rockplayer..ect

But to your question

you manually select what folder you want it to scan i made a folder called Movies..also dont use the one in OP its now available on the market
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Bodin12345:
I got the one on the market...

You were really vague in answering my question though. I am not new to computers but I am new to this. Do I have to modify (root) my Nexus for this to work?

For instance I connect my Nexus S to my laptop and can get the "removable disk (H:)" option in my computer. Can I make any folder within there and call it "movies"?

OR is there a specific sub folder I need to be in?

Thanks for your help.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Bodin12345:
The folders as seen in moboplayer don't mirror what I am seeing on my computer. That's is why I am confused.

Thanks for the help.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Bodin12345:
Bah, no wonder I couldn't see the files. I needed to disconnect the device from my computer.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Deleted member 3029789:
MX Video Player is by far the best video player on Android IMO.

It was the only player that could play 720p MKV with subtitles without any kind of lag, problems with subtitles or sound. You can also change between audio-tracks.

It also got a the prettiest interface.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] roshan567:
hey but where do i add the movies on the phone???i added it in a seperate folder but when i open mx video player i couldn find the movies?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] demo23019:
diceplayer is easily best player especially for nexus s and this is a fact, still the only player that plays pretty much everything with true hardware support

MX Video Player is just another software render player and is not capable of true hardware acceleration the only codec it supports for hardware decode are the ones already provided by the OS and stock player will also plays these videos fine ...this shows its not a true hardware player these guys who make these video players and claims are misleading people.

edit

just for giggles i tested MX again since i haven't tried in a while and thinking maybe they actually broke free from the same old traditional software player

But its still the same as before cant play my HQ HD videos with hardware and with software its extremely laggy with sync issues and color banding

http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/07/odroid-a-tablet-fits-1366-x-768-res-on-a-10-inch-screen-dual-co/

First up is the delightfully dense 1366 x 768 resolution, a rare sight on a 10-inch display, followed by a transparent rear panel that bests anything out on the market right now in terms of sheer sex appeal, and then there are also two MicroSD slots, a HSPA+ modem, HDMI output, a USB 2.0 port, cameras on the front and rear, and a crazy

9000mAh battery

. How all this is supposed to only cost $750, we don't know, but then we also don't know how to qualify to get one when it becomes available later this month. So many mysteries. Jump past the break for some hands-on and benchmarking video action.

That will only cost you $750 ....

Sure, this is still dev kit or something for dev only? Don't know if we can buy it later.

Just see that for your own viewing pleasure ... dream it ... and then look into your Xoom .... and think about the price you have paid for it.

... *speechless* ... (about the Xoom price)

Yeah, no Honeycomb ... not sure if it will have update ... or the spec is NOT compliant. Too bad.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Wait, isn't this a Xoom forum? This isn't a general tablet forum. Post this in a general forum or something, not a device specific one. This is no different than you posting this link in a forum for the Nexus One.

This product is a complete dev platform prototype system, nowhere anywhere near anything resembling consumer level sales.
[Xoom General] DarkDvr:
What does this have to do with xoom?

This isn't a "look what I found on the internet" forum.
[Xoom General] ChongoDroid:
What's the resolution of our xooms?
[Xoom General] gogol:
This highlights the cost of Xoom compare to other device.

Most people think Xoom is too expensive, but how expensive?

Some people want to know how low can the price go?

Then we need other device for comparison.

If you frequent visit into this forum, people often post COMPARISON.

Threads like "Which one to choose, Xoom or Galaxy Tab 10.1?".

There are tens threads like this here, do search.

So yeah, I could change the subject like that.

And btw, not only Xoom owners will go into this specific forum. But people who are thinking or planning to buy one.

People ask advice for comparison. Sometimes we learned that way.

"Don't go with that device because of <technical explanation>"

"Xoom has advantage because of <technical explanation>"

That helps, really helps to make up buying decision.

So yeah, this is for your information only.

If you cannot see that way, then sorry, that's you.

For MODs, feel free to delete, move this thread.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
The thing is, different companies have different costs of components, R&D costs, marketing costs, target profit margin, etc. that all factor in to what they charge for a device. You can't just simply add up the cost of 1 processor, 1 stick of ram, etc. etc. and determine how much a piece of hardware should be sold for.

Not to mention that this other device isn't even a consumer device... like I said its a developer prototype being sold in very low quantities no doubt, no one here who is looking to buy a Xoom is comparing it to this in a buying decision. There really isn't much comparison to be made.

And just because its a tablet doesn't mean you should be just posting in a random tablet forum imo. Like I said, a general Android forum would be much more suitable.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Mods need to delete this un-xoom related post.
[Xoom General] bogatyr:
This isn't much of a comparison, no honeycomb and the tablet looks like a brick. Not really in the same league, imo.
[Xoom General] tsekh501:
This is a reference platform. The design (or no design) is ugly, the thing is thick as hell, and there is no tablet UI on it. This thing is built for developers and other manufacturer as a hardware reference. Not intended to be a consumer product.

theres people asking for this....and i don't think people should flash a non stable rom just for this animation....so here:

screen off and lock

doesn't use lock button, but you can remap long press of search button (i don't use google voice actions that much) to lock the screen with an animation.

hope this helps some people

:D

oh....and if you're rooted (which most people on here are) you can pull the xml animation file and rename it lock_screen_enter.xml or lock_screen_behind_enter.xml, then push it to your frameworkres.apk/anim, it will be your animation for unlocking your phone. it's ultra fast and fits perfectly with the unlock sounds.

i'd include a video, but i dont have a digital camera....
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] trill12:
Hmm, Im going to wait to see if someone tries this. Could be pretty epic.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] aznpandaman:
Hmm I was under the impression that the frameworks prior to ginger bread had no support for that kind of animation.

Might when I get home, I really do like the tv animation
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I guess pre-gingerbread, the sdk doesn't call for an xml when hitting the power/lock button. So that's why I use the feature to remap long pressing the search button.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
doesn't give me screen off animation like in gingerbread on my Vibrant..... uninstalled.....
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
You guys have to configure it first, you know..... Look in your apps for "configure screen off and unlock" it's not that difficult.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I'm using a vibrant too....and it doesn't require root....so whoever can't make it happen: you're doing it wrong
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
Thanks for quick responcse, but also I'm not dumb. I've configured it and still nothing.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
Do you have all animations turned on in settings/display?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I didn't call anyone dumb. Just said that it's being done wrong. I'm just trying to help, buddy. And it doesn't use the power button...read the op
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
alright, sorry , it sounded like ya think i'm a moron. I tried 2 times, reinstalled, restarted, and still no Gingerbread style tv off animation. There seems to be a slightly different animation when putting phone to sleep when I set it to "old style TV", but def not gingerbread , not even close.

So I guess I'm must be doing something VERY wrong with the simple instructions and setttings... IDK man. Not sure what to say,

Thanks for the app, unfortunately tho it does not give that GB style tv off animation

EDIT: yes I have all animations turned on, always do
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I figure it's close enough for those who really wanted the animation like me. And it works in landscape. So that's a plus to me.

I just wasn't down to install an unstable gb build for this animation.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
I'm not bashing at all. Just reporting back from my use of the app. NONE of the animations I select work , so maybe it is the ROM I'm using. IDK.

Ty anyways
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
That's weird man. Sorry it's not working for ya. What rom are you using? I'm using original bionix v.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] joe.kerwin:
Working very well, thanks man! Are there any ways to speed/slow down the animation?

EDIT: Can you also elaborate on unlock animation? Does this mean when we hit the power button the screen will turn on that way in reverse? I'd like to get that going, but would I have to know how to edit and recompile an apk? I've never really messed with xml files.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I mean the transition from your lock screen to your home screen/open app.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] joe.kerwin:
can we do this using root explorer?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
What I do is take this app from data/app and bring it to my computer, and extract scale_old_tv.xml, and rename it to lock_screen_exit.xml and take your framework, and drop it into framework/res/anim
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mr.orange303:
Well I say thanks. Anyway to make this flashable?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] dcpetterson:
Works great, love it, great job, gl, hf, gg.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
I'm on latest trigger if that helps ya. Since they just updated it I'll give this app another go
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] dcpetterson:
Im on latest trigger too, and it didn't work for me til I remapped it to the search button long press.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
I just tried it again and as long as you remap search button it does work. But won't work from notification button. So I retract my original statement that it doesn't work. Good job man
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] eminembdg:
If I push those XML files into the frame work does that mean that the hardware button will give same effect as long press on the search button ?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] joe.kerwin:
That's not even true. I have voice search tied to my search button and have it setup to lock when I slide my thumb over my app drawer using LPP
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
Anything before gingerbread doesn't affect locking the screen. so changing your anim files in framework only affects unlocking. Just make sure you change it to lock_screen_exit.xml. I also changed it to lock_screen_behind_enter.xml and pushed it too, just to be safe.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I prefer to use long press search button...cause you can lock from any screen....not just the home screen. I did email the app developer to change the remap to long pressing the menu button, since it just brings up quick search, which we already have a button for.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] malevolent000:
Would someone be so kind and make a flashable zip? I would love to test it.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
You do realize that making it flashable would only change the animation on UNLOCKING, right? Not making the phone sleep....

And I dunno how to make things flashable....i personally like making changes myself instead of constantly flashing things to make framework changes.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] joe.kerwin:
What if you could do a reverse so it's an opening animation of the tv turning on and replaced lockscreen enter XML?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
I don't know how to make these animations...this is just a hack from the program being used in framework
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thachosenone:
So I emailed the app developer...and he says there is no way to use long pressing the menu button w/o making it a rooted phone app....so I asked him to make a rooted version. :) real fast response from him too.
