View 2 RepliesI see similar threads says this is normal for the Moto Droid. Anyone have this with their Dinc? Is it okay? It never did that until I had to remove my cover a handful of times during one day. It does it when it first turns on, if I change between taking a photo and viewing photos, etc. I want to be sure I didn't break it or something.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter setting the overclock widget to reduce the CPU when my screen is off I find the mp3 player distorts the music when I listen. I have had to increase the screen off min speed to 480000 to stop this happening. This of course means I'm not getting the battery saving bonus that setting to 112, 160 or 245 would give me. Does anyone know a better way to set the overclock widget to give me the battery saving effects without distorting music? Or perhaps an mp3 player that uses less CPU? I'm running SenseHero 2.1 b4 and using the stock HTC music player.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi havea bunch of AVI video clips that i ant to watch on Hero. unfortunately it seems AVI is unsupported and there are no video players out there that support it. so it seems i have to convert to MP4. What are the exact settings i need to make it in order to playback on Hero? i am using Format Factory to convert .
View 5 Replies View RelatedI tried a few different players from the market including a few that I had to use an app installer to install. So far I have had no luck playing AVI's & MVA's, does anyone know if Android 2.0 includes a universal player like VLC? If not is anyone working on a player? I understand you can convert files to MP4 & 3GP but I would rather find something that can just play the standard format my camera records in.

View 5 Replies View RelatedStrange behavior on my Sprint Hero - apps I haven't asked to start, suddenly appear in my Tasklist, after sitting on a charger for extended periods of time... Example: Today, while the phone was sitting on my desk and I had just force-closed a few apps, the Navigation, Calendar and Clock apps all started to run. The phone screen was off, sitting on a table and I had just confirmed that NONE of those apps were running before I turned off the phone.
Is this a bug in the Hero overall, just the SpLint implementation or something with just my phone?
I've had my Hero for a few months now and it has been wonderful. However, the other night, the phone wouldn't charge all the way, so I unplugged it, restarted it, and charged it and it charged up to 90% through the night. Last night it only charged up to about 50% give or take. This morning at work, I plugged it in and instead of charging, it got extremely hot and then it died.
This afternoon, I took it to the Sprint store and they put in a new battery and the phone worked again, but it got REALLY hot again. I took it back in and they looked at it again and said the phone has definitely got a problem and the cause of this is water. It has been raining, but I don't recall ever having any water get in the phone - just the occasional rain drop hits the screen and I wipe it off. I never keep it out in the rain. They are saying I'll have to do an insurance claim to replace it because of water damage. They say there are 4 water marks in the phone. I find this so hard to believe and don't like that they want me to spend $100 on a new phone.
There was a post about camera app (paid) that makes better picture.
That post had a pics with Hero's app and that one.
However, i can't remember the app's name, nor i can find that post.
Is there anyway to edit the items that starts up with the Droid OS?

View 3 Replies View RelatedBasically when connecting my phone to my car's aux in socket, the music player starts up & plays over whatever else is happening. As an example, if I want to listen to a podcast on Beyondpod, the moment it starts playing, the music player kicks in & plays whatever track was last being played. I use Taskiller to close it down but it's starts up again after a few mins or even seconds. It also occasionally dials the last number I called, just to really wind me up. It also occasionally does this when watching a video with headphones in.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if we can compile a list of apps that makes the awake time higher on the phone or makes the battery drain faster? I just got my hero today, and am trying to figure this out? It could potentially help others too!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have taskiller and it seems that I have to always close programs and they wont stay off. Is there a better program out there that I can get to pick and choose what starts up when I turn the phone on?
My main issue with this is my camera. I have to turn off almost all of my programs in order to use my camera smoothly other wise its all choppy and sucks!
This is a strange problem, Whenever I plug in & unplug my ear piece my music starts playing (ringtones I have downloaded) How do I stop this? Seems to happen almost every time I unplug my ear piece, Its anoying! And sometimes it will start playing them when i plug it in also. It happened once when I was on a call and I lost the call because of it..
View 18 Replies View RelatedIf I go into the sounds and display and select my ringer its loud enough that I put the overall ringtone volume at one notch before the max. The weirdness starts when someone actually calls me. When I get a phone call the ringer sounds like its about half volume, so after the call I go an check and its still one notch from max. Now even weirder is all the clicks and noises throughout android are even quieter. The only way to make them as loud as they should be again seems to be opening voice to text then everything is the volume it should be. I don't have quiet ringtone when picked up turned on, and all my volumes are adjusted right.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI would like to be able to set an appointment, and have it use a loud, noticeable, annoying tone (i.e. to wake me up!). Currently it is using the "On Time" tone, but when I change the notification ringtone, nothing changes. I can change the notification volume, which makes "On Time" louder, but I would like a different sound.

(like a bad ground sound). I know it is my charger, because as soon as i touch the charger to the phone the sound starts. Does everyone else have this same problem or is it just my phone? (I am using a bestbuy rocketfish usb car charger)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just received an MP4 video that plays really well on my Hero. But it is not visible in the photo gallery of my phone. It's grayed out. When I go into my SD card with a file manager and click on it the movie will play perfectly but it won't play though the photo gallery manager.My real issue is that I have to go into a file manager to find the file and play it instead of using a widget to call up a program that will play it. There is obviously something in the phone that can handle the MP4 format and I just need to know what program to use.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo we've had the Droid since November, I used it, no problems, then it got passed down to my technologically challenged husband after he "accidentally" broke his flip phone in half.
He put some apps on it, and now it's constantly making sounds confirming every action, despite making sure that was unchecked in settings. (It's quiet when he has media volume turned off, but then he has to manually turn it back on every time he wants to play a game or watch a video.)
I factory reset once, and it was fine, then he put all the same apps back on it, and it started up again. I have now done three more resets, and not only is it not going away, but his same wallpaper keeps coming back, despite it not showing anywhere in the phone's internal memory through Astro, and making sure I had the memory card taken out while resetting. Not only that, but when I attempt to mount the phone to the computer, the memory card shows up, but not the internal memory.
Did he get a virus? Does anyone have any other ideas of how to resolve this?
What i did but now my phone makes an annoying type writing sound when i text. I looked though everything and cant find what turns it off. And also the spell check when u type is off too how do i turn that back on?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor the life of me I couldn't get any of the players besides Doubletwist to play my m3u playlists! Doubletwist worked but it was just waaayyyy to slow. I come from the iPhone and iPod where it was super easy to get your music on your device. So with that said, and this may be knowledge that most of you already know, but Im gonna post it because it may help someone.
I created a folder titled "Music" in the root section of the SD card. Opened up iTunes and found the playlist I wanted to have on my EVO. Right clicked on the playlist title (in itunes) and exported the playlist as an m3u file on my desktop. Opened the Music folder on my EVO and simply dragged and dropped the m3u file into the music folder. Then, I went back to iTunes, selected all the songs in that playlist, and dragged and dropped those songs into the Music folder on my EVO.
Disconnected the EVO after the transfer was complete and fired up Btunes. BOOM! My playlist and all corresponding songs were there! I checked Doubletwist and the playlist showed there too! So I hooked the EVO back up and transferred a bunch more playlists (about 6 gigs worth) and Btunes and DoubleTwist showed those too! So right now, Btunes and DoubleTwist (the only two I tried) work with this method. While it may not keep track of playcounts and things like that, it does work for now.
What does everyone think is the best mp3 player out there in the market? Personally I like the one that came with the phone as it is very slick, although it doesnt have great audio set up features. Also, does anyone else find that some of the songs on yoir phone can sound excessively "bassy" at times? Like it has bass boost on to the pepsi max?
