I seem to be getting that impression too. on a worse case with any of my HTC phones i ever had i could do something to get it working. and i have had some **** ups happen. this was a stupid mistake and im sure on a forum where we have oms posted for both i cant be the first person to click the wrong one as im getting the idea they are simular but hey its a brick now. so carphonewarehouse i go. and just hope they cant switch it on and see the at&t screen lmao.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
I had a similar result a couple of weeks back after trying to flash hardcore's speedmod kernel CWM version in Odin - not very sensible...

Couldn't get into download mode at all. After panicking for a couple of hours, I removed the battery for 2 hours, reinserted it and all was good - i.e., got download mode back.

Worth a try, you're not going to make it any worse. Hopefully... Good luck.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshua3109:
Hey, im sorry if I used the wrong term (hack) but I am not knowledgable in this field. I was wondering though what benefits there are to using "custom roms" (I think thats right).

The main complaint with my Desire is the extreme lack of internal memory and slow software updates from telus (froyo and honeycomb for example in case I used the wrong term again). If either of these issues could be fixed from hacking my Desire (primarily the memory one) I would more then likely go through with it. (I have 15 mb of free memory and its a Huge annoyance)

You see, I hacked my psp back in the day because I could play games for free , get cutom themes and all that cool stuff. I was wondering what special things you can do with a "custom OS".

Im sorry if I said anything wrong, blatantly obvious or if this topic has been made before. I just want my phone to be all it can be, thanks a million and all the best.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehtcdesire:
i do have desire too, have rooted recently , have tried, various roms , like , leedroid, starburst, coolz etc, now using gingervillian ,

i felt like you before but rooting will give you choice of OS to install and you dont have to wait OTA update to use gingerbread or latest OS.

if you need more space then starburst might be your choice.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fireon123:
I never regret rooting my phone, it is awesome! Really do recommend it!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aca85:
Of course :)

It's better,faster,smoother,more space for apps :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Yes, you should've.

Take a look on Leedroid ROM, its fairly easy to start with. Ofcourse you need to Root your phone first. (lots of guides on forum just search)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z3r0n3:
Yeah, you can "fix" your main complaints rooting your phone and installing a Custom ROM. The lack of internal memory can be fixed using App2SD+ or a clean AOSP ROM (like Oxygen, my current ROM) and a custom HBOOT partition (giving less space to the /system partition and a lot more space to /data). Of course, in this case you lost HTC Sense, but if you really like Sense just search for App2SD+. And Custom ROMs are updated a lot more than oficial, you can already have Gingerbread on your Desire and even Honeycomb (early and broke port, but it's getting better).

And a rooted phone is way more fun IMHO. You can use some great apps that will never work without root (like Titanium Backup, Root Explorer, ROM Manager, ShootMe, SetCPU etc) and you can do almost anything to the system. It's great.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
There isn't a single Desire running an official version of Honeycomb so you're not missing out there. 2.2 is out on Telus now so really don't know what you're on about!!

Anyway, yes a custom ROM is good but it's not the be all and end all. I've got over my ROM-flashing days and now only change when something is worth switching for. Otherwise I use my own ROM. That way I can add/remove what I want and not what someone else thinks I should be using

Read up a lot, ask questions (if you can't find answers) and don't let others dictate what you do. Root it because YOU want to, not because everyone says to
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItsDace:
I unrooted my Desire recently, i realised that i dont need root anymore.

Froyo A2SD is good enough for me and i prefer Sense. Currently im waiting for the GingerSense update that ships in June. The leaked Saga ROM looks very promising - it even has a build in notification power widget.

You could use a GoldCard do debrand if you dont want to wait for Telus to push OTA updates.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bono2804:
The simple answer, in my humble opinion, is root your phone! I agree with the comment before mine and you should only mod your phone if your want to and are happy to tinker with it. Like the old days playing with PSP's and the like all mods carry risks of bricking but most answers I needed were in this forum somewhere. I have never regretted rooted my Desire and have helped several friends do theirs. Along the way I've tried different roms and made a few mistakes but I now enjoy my phone more than when I first got it. For rooting I would recommend searching out unRevoked it's one click rooting is brilliant although make sure you have the right adb drivers for your computer before starting! I first started with LeeDroid as the Apps to SD Card is already implemented for you so very little fiddling to do, you will need to be able to partition your SD card to use this function tho but you sound like you have some base knowledge so that shouldn't be too tricky. I'm now using GingerVillain 1.6 and love it, its quick smooth and meets all MY needs it might not be the one for you tho. Biggest tip? Read research and ask before starting anything there's normally someone out there that has done or about to do whatever you're thinking of so find out first before pressing enter and swearing for several hours!

Hi

What is NoDo?

Thanks

Amedeus
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Patric1972:
NoDo is an update to WP7 by Microsoft scheduled for March 2011.

Next big update is called Mango and is scheduled Q3/2011. This should bring multitasking an other stuff...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Amedeus:
Does that mean that NoDo is 7.7008 as this is an update just released ?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Patric1972:
No, as I know, the 7008 is an Update to improve the update capabilities to install further updates.

NoDo is 7389, I think.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] VirtualRenzo:
So what does NoDO stand for?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Gustopher:
Specifically - it is short for 'No Donuts'. Actually, it means nothing - it's just a name. It could just as easily be a reference number.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] T-Macgnolia:
It is a poke at Android as all of Androids versions have had a name to do with pastry. You know Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, and now Honeycomb. It is just a way for Microsoft to make fun of Android publicly and not get sued for it lol. Look at the name of the next update, Mangoo which is a fruit. Fruit is suppose to be good for you and pastries are not get it? I think it is funny myself.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Gustopher:
It's reasonably common knowledge why MS called it NoDo, but the poster asked what it meant, which is nothing really - it could have been called 'charlie', 'R2D2' or 'Hon Lionel Prinkinville III' - it's just a means of identifying it rather than imparting information.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] T-Macgnolia:
You are correct it is just a means of indentifing the update. But it is a poke at Android and that is the reason Microsoft named/identified it as NoDo. Therefore I equate the NoDo or No Donuts to mean that Microsoft thinks their Windows Phone 7 OS is better than Android. Thus making NoDo mean WP7 is better than Android. I guess it is all how each indevidual looks at it. I just find it very comicial and had to post that as VirtualRenzo obviously had no clue about it. Microsoft and their silly word games :p
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] theguy:
Actually NoDo is a reference to a meeting where a microsoft employee forget to bring donuts when he was supposed to.. it was not a jibe at android.

A quick google will tell you that.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] T-Macgnolia:
I did a quick google and found this. I also found this qouted straight from the search page.

I could not find a article on the guy forgeting the donuts but I have read about that as well. But don't you think them making fun of that guy is where they got the idea to make fin of Android in the same way. But thos is not worth arguing about it is just a name. But the truth is the truth.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] theguy:
The link you posted said the following:

"

rumors

have it that windows new firmware name "No Do" is a punt for Androids "doughnut" firmware"

I highlighted the crucial word. The blogger, like you, is only guessing what it means.

Here is the official response by Charlie Kindel, a WP7 developer, via his twitter :

http://twitter.com/#!/ckindel/statuses/22498194759884800
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] T-Macgnolia:
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...................... That is so funny

Do you really take that as proof?

That sounds more like someone covering their butt from lawsuites to me. Somthing somebody said on twitter give me a break.

AlsocI am no blogger never have been never will be. The only reason I sited that link and quote was because you told me to do a quick Google search so I did and that is what I got, ot toke all of like 1 minute to pull that up. I never had a MySpace page, I don't use facebook matter of fact can't stand facebook, and twitter is even worse of a joke and a falacie in my opinion. I don't want to read whatever someone wants to just vomit out, or something they are writting to try to look cool. I try to stay grounded in facts and not fantasy that the corperate world would like for people and strive for people to stay in. I mean really do you think they would publicly admit to the name NoDo being a slight of word against Android. That would be grounds for a huge corparate lawsuite, and maybe even cause Microsoft to lose ownership of therlir precious new OS as a outcome of the lawsuit. At minumal it would cost them a very large amount of money.

Why are people diffending Microsoft anyway? Microsoft has never been called a saint. But the fact still remains call it a rumor or not the truth is the truth. Especially when it is so obviouse that a blind man could see it.

Beleive what you want to beleive, and continue to be blind if you want. I originally posted in thos thread because I thought others might get a good laugh out of it just as I did but I guess I was wrong.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] youngdaddytc:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] T-Macgnolia:
Ok seens you don't think I can use Google (which you are torally wrong) here is a little article I got by using Google. This article does more than just says it is rumored it breaks it down just a little more, and shows it is a direct link to Android with the name NoDo. Funny thing is it was the third link on the first page of links Google pulled up and all I had to type in was NoDo, hmmmmm!

Also you think I can not search XDA, wrong again check out these post from XDA. Link #1, Link #2, and Link #3 And best yet one from you showing you really did not know for sure yourself not long ago.

Also check the link in my sig about "Becoming more familiar with XDA"that is all about how to use search.

I just wanted to point out that Froyo is Frozen Yogert... Don't forget Gingerbread and Icecream sandwich. Android is named after deserts. The Donut release was about 2.5 years ago... who runs that version?

The name nodo comes off as stupid when you realize they thought android was called pastries.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
you guys are quite funny, there isnt anything that says what NoDo means, other than opinions, the only firm thing from MS is a few blog and TV comments which is about as official as your going to get but that gets branded as lies and a big coverup, im getting the feeling some of you think the whole Moon landings were a big lie too? an anyway why are you all getting so worked up about it ;)

I could think of dozens of reasons they called it that but at the end of the day who gives a ****
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] silverwind:
You may be right :)

But I enjoy reading all comments here :D

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] JVH3:
Wow did the conversation on this get side tracked.

The OP was asking not what NoDo meant or the history of the name, but what build. See post #3 with the response from the original poster.

I realize this is an old thread, but it is what google finds for

"What is NoDo"

New Windows phone 7 users reading the threads see NoDo, Mango, RTM, etc.

Users want to know if they have NoDo, so they google what is NoDo?

I am assuming 7.07392.0 is also NoDo, with some other updates / fixes.

This was just recently pushed to my LG Quantum that I have had for less than a week.

Been reading from multiple sources that Mango will be pushed out on the 15th. Hoping that is true.

Thanks for the preset! I've only tried one AVI conversion, but it worked perfect and plays smoothly, with no sound sync problems. It did make the file slightly bigger, but not much.

[Xoom General] funnycreature:
didn't want to open yet another thread...

Does anyone here know what causes the lag between audio and video? I ripped Avatar from Bluray using 2kbit video MP4 iso v.2 @1280x800 with 160kbit sound (AVS video converter) . When I play the file on my PC everything is fine but on the Xoom the sound is a few seconds ahead of the picture. Trying to convert using Handbrake and the posted settings. Will post if it works later!

@OP: would you mind providing a list of the settings that the preset uses?

Thanks!

UPDATE: The conversion worked fine! However, I think I have to enable hardware decoding in Rockplayer now. This is all very confusing *sigh*
[Xoom General] spitfirerx:

[Xoom General] jokeyrhyme:
Anyone tried WebM on the Xoom yet? I doubt there's hardware-acceleration for it, but the CPUs ought to be good enough for any codec without special hardware support.
[Xoom General] iceytea:
Just use baseline profile h.264 for your HD needs. High profile pretty much just means better compression than baseline.

[Xoom General] onicrom:
silly quesiton, but how do you use/install this preset? specifically ubuntu.
[Xoom General] packruler:
To use this file you must import it into handbrake which is available here: http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php
[Xoom General] onicrom:
thanks, i figured it out... i imported and didnt realize it until i just tried to convert a video and it worked.

but it does still seem choppy to me after converting.

[Xoom General] smilepak:
What's a typical file size for the conversion anyhow? I am around 1.8GB average on a DVD extract to use on my NAS DLNA stream right now.
[Xoom General] eatonjb:
can't wait to test it out!
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>What's a typical file size for the conversion

My DVD encodes vary from 600MB to 1GB-ish, normally under the 1GB mark. My settings are full-res anamorphic, high-profile, with stereo MP3/AAC, using one-pass CRF 21. If you use AC3/DTS, it will be larger. If using main profile, size is +5-10%; for baseline, about +30%.

My 720p encodes range 2-3GB using 5.1 AAC. Avatar is a notable standout at 5.6GB, for its 3hrs length and many hi-bitrate scenes.
[Xoom General] djthread:
Thank you!! I was looking for this earlier, but then just stumbled upon it here. :)
[Xoom General] djthread:
Actually, this preset did not appear to load on the linux Handbrake:

[Xoom General] palmboy5:
The OP posted preset isn't proper as it simply uses MPEG-4 (FFmpeg) which creates H.263 videos rather than H.264.

iceytea's link says how to properly make a H.264 Baseline video. The main thing to follow from the link is

So, on the Video tab choose Video Codec: H.264 (x264).

On the Advanced tab set

Maximum B-Frames: 0

CABAC Entropy Coding: unchecked

8x8 Transform: unchecked

Weighted P-Frames: unchecked
[Xoom General] hickslv426:
Xoom handbrake preset still not the best?

I used this preset for a 90 minute blu-ray movie and it compressed it to a file size of 1.6 GB, but the picture was grainy and blocky. I've had DVD files encoded with less size but with better picture quality.

I was looking over the instructions to flash this when i read this part....Then, reboot into recovery (power and volume up) and allow the update to run - you can hit the Home button to toggle the visible status, btw. Once completed, it will reboot,

update the BCT partition

, then reboot again into TnT Lite 5.0.0.

[G Tablet General] lsu205:
Quickest answer willcome fromthread that has that ROM...or pm roebeet he usually is very responsive
[G Tablet General] Butch1326:
BCT is the boot configuration table. It's part of the NVIDIA Tegra configuration. If you end up using nvflash your gtab one day, you will see that a number of partitions are formated as part of the nvflash including boot, system, as well as BCT. NVIDIA provides a generic flash.bct file. There is also a bct files specific to the gtablet (and other devices as well). You don't need to worry about this. Roebeet and the XDA Developers take good care of us so that the rest of us don't need to worry about these gory details.
