Develop Bugs

as the sun said to the black hole I have a few odd Questions about my orbit.

Hi all thanks for all yuor help.
Does anyone know if i can get sky on deman, 4OD on my XDA orbit ? Also when i try and stream radio off i player i have to open it in real player wont play in browser any ideas ?
Cant seem to get iplayer working on the video side either.
Also when i try and watch a utube mobile video i get errors and it wont play.
Can it handle any kind of Direct X ? might have to go find that old doom game i had back on my simbian thing.
On the overclocking is there any kind of stabiility tester ?
Also is there any way to hack a normal XP exe file to mobile compatible installer / program.
anyone recomend a really cheap tarrif no txts needed no more then 60 mins needed but unlimited web access would be the aim.
Oh and for all of you that havent tried it ( i havet tried it on this device but i beleave it should work will update) have a look at orb.com its a way to stream all yuor PC media to any device with a browser kinda nifty
Oh and i know the answers no on this one but wares the video out ? just a composite out would have been nice via the usb.
oh and anyone use a radio transmitter thing for ipods to radios if so recomend a good one and the same for stereo bluetooth headphones.
Oh and though i will try this later i have a blue tooth mouse mogu, think it will work ?
its not essential i am just explorring the limits of the device.
only dissapointment was no IR was going to be auniversal remote for my home and work and many other places i guess i should have checked more but i read on one review it has IR :/
thanks any ideas hear say thoughts welcome

oh and anyone know of a way to get the radio on without the headphones in i realise it uses as an aerial but i guarantee it can work without it, i had a lobster with DVB that worked with just a paper clip in it and as long as it was in one place ie put down while i worked it picked up a few stations so FM should easily trump that.
Also a good case that will stop it cracking when i drop it which i will. Just trying to get all my questions out any thought are welcome.
oh yea anyone got information on what the mini usb can out through put ie i guess 2 connectors of the 4 are power and 2 data ? i ask as at my work we use a GUI interface with touch screen and if i had that running on this little XDA i could slack for a motnh on the praise alone hehe ( the gui works on registry entries so i guess it probably wont work but that leads me back to earlier questions..
How much does WM6 differ from XP or should i ask is there any similarities ?
Yup i think thats all the questions that i have ben mulling

lol not quite i have thought of 6 or so questions since, can this thing join my local netwrok lan and can it have shared folders and resources.
i'm sorry i know people like to go into depth on one subject but thats far too slow for me and you ya realise how short life is lol i am investigating all these but any help welcome
oh and orbit deffinetly better name the artimes sounds like an art room cleaner or a failed gladiator :s right thats it i am going to do somthing not connected to xda's lol. i think its kartrider.com time online mario kart wicked - oh fyi i want this on my xda if i figure out earlier answers

Jeeeez man, dont ask for much LOL. Ill try to answer as many as possible for you as best I can.
1 - SKY on Demand = Nope not yet (check out which you should have done.
2 - iPlayer not working = To what end. I take it you having issues streaming media? Dont think it will work.
3 - Youtube = Dont bother, seriously. Artemis (Orbit) doesnt srteam it properly, and if you can get it to stream, the video will very VERY choppy.
4 - DirectX = Why? What you wanting to run? As far as I know the Orbit should support Direct3D OK.
5 - Overclocking = Sure, overclock it until it stops responding. Seriously. Peoples results vary on each device. Mine I manage to get to 273.
6 - ??? = Why?
7 - Web Tariff = Think Vodafone Pay n Go do a good tariff which gives you unlimited browsing for small price. Dont keep me to that though, I dont bother with GPRS/EDGE browsing.
8 - Orb.com - Dont need it, I have my home network connected to my PDA and I just stream what I want via wifi through Coreplayer.
9 - Video out = Dunno if there is one. There is a diagram around here of the out outputs, Ill see if I can find it (or maybe someone else can help).
10 - Radio transmitter = Just google for one man. (example) (Google results)
11 - Bluetooth Mouse = Again Why? Surely for you to be able to see the screen decent enough, you will be holding the Orbit anyway. Seems like a it would be a pointless/lazy bluetooth add-on.
12 - Radio without headphones = YEs you can obtain an adaptor that will plug iinto your mini usb and act as an aerial. Some/most also have a headphone jack so you can use your own headphones (probably your iPod headphones in your case) example
13 - Good Case = Try GPSforless, they usually have good deals on all sorts (probably have that FM adaptor too).
14 - Attatch to monitor = Dont think it would work anyways. Dont think it would be able to output more than 240 x 320 pixels anyway so itll be the same as th Orbit screen (pointless).
15 - WM6 different than XP = Ehm.......in what areas?? Its a mobile platform so yeah it differs alot, or is quite similair (in respect to using a registry, etc..).
16 - Access Network - Yes it can definately access your network and shared folders. Dont think PC can access it over network though.
Phew !! Well thats me. Please feel free to correct me on anything thats not right (Im sure there is plenty LOL)

SlingPlayer on HD

Now this is a new issue...Once started, on portrait mode, the slingplayer screen takes half the screnn of the HD.Also it is impossible to change channels as the buttons seem pressed there.
On Landscape mode the screen is filled up almost to the 90% capacity of the HD , thus making it very very comfortable to watch.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix the portrait mode???
Thanks

slingplayer impossible to use (touchscreen version)
has anyone managed to get slingplayer mobile working well on Touch HD? The buttons are impossible to use for the remote very small and not mapped correctly, also the full screen is not the whole screen only part of it.. anyone got any tips? I searched but noone seems to have solved this?

Hope it's sorted soon, asked the wife for a Slingbox for xmas :/

its just about usable although slow to use the menus for remote control functions but the streaming and PQ are excellent so its worth having!

I have it working.
I cannot however hand out the version I am using.
So, please wait. a version that does work perfectly with HD is on its way. I can also state SlingMobile version coming out soon works perfectly on Omnia and on the X1.
Sorry I can't hand this out, and please do not ask, as refusal may offend.

Ah... wonderful news indeed as this is one of my favorite apps.

awesome, figured out I can get the current version usable with Sky plus by using the favourites buttons to set the most common remote control functions but it would be good to have a version that works with WVGA properly!! Any idea on timelines for the newer version?

Any News?

WMTorrent is clunky, but works fine. If you're using Linux, then Transmission is very lightweight and simple to use.

So installing the Linux Rhobuntu on the tilt 2 Id be able to torrent then?
If so sounds good to me! Ill mark this as solved once that is verified.
Only considering this as my Laptop is no longer usable and im kind of looking to see what I truly need on for, I can use my G/Fs or the ubuntu for any word processing, I rarely if ever need the computer for other items that I cant do from my work computer.
thank you for your response!

[Q] Samsung TV Remote not connecting

Hi guys,
coming from windows mobile I´m pretty much a noob in bada, so I have still questions about the standard behavior of the phone. first of all, is there automatic backlight adjustment?
I´m having further problems with the samsung tv remote app. i downloaded it on the appstore. It says that it is working with the wave II s8530 and my tv (samsung le37b650). sending videos and pics through allshare works fine (tv found), but tv remote app won´t find my tv. help is much appreciated
cheers ede
ps.: funny thing is ... using the htc-diamond for about 3 years the wave II is weak at all the points the diamond is good (outlook-sync, navigation, gps) and extreamly strong on all the negative aspects of the htc-diamond (battery, photos, mp3 & video playback). appstore, and widgets are pretty poor but i hope there is a possibility to create own widgets (or maybe i find a non-childish-looking-calender app somewhere) ... hopefully someone can give me a hint on how to delete all the vodafone apps on my phone or on how to flash the latest fw with social hub premium working

is you phone branded???
if not there is alot of modified fws floating around on our thread choose what fits you and flash it

thank you for your quick reply
yes it has a vodafone branding ...
this seems to be the only fw with social hub premium working http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=920 but it is for the Wave 8500 not for my model.
any suggestions on what fits me - or help where i can find info to make up my mind?

oh sorry for late reply
i can't help you
you must (Debrand)unlock the phone first because if you flashed the phone now it will brick
if you did that come to this thread again and i will help you right away
i am not sure if you can flash a branded phone or not but no one tried as it is dangerous

mhh ok i´ll see what i can do. thank you.
ps: it has a vodafone branding but no simlock or netlock
SW ver S8530BUJK4
CSC ver S8530VFGJK5

ok i got the JKA firmware, no-branding anymore and shp ... samsung tv remote is still not finding my tv ?

good for you man
i don't use that app as i don't have a wifi tv wait for anyone else to help you out

Could someone post the last apk for Samsung Remote app 2.1.3? I dont seem to be able to get it from Market...

Life streaming from TP2? bambuser/livestream/ustream/qik/livecast/justin.tv etc

Hi guys, been a while since the 8525 days, now i'm looking at doing something new (to me) with my TP2. Anyone have a working life streaming solution? I've looked through and tried a bunch, and so far best I've been able to find is ustream or bambuser apps which work well on xdandroid FroYo (Can't get GingerBread to boot all the way..) other than the mike, they do not seem to pick up any sound. . .please advise
some stuff i found, but still no cigar:

Thanks!

Do you want an Android or Windows Mobile solution? If you want an Android solution, you posted in the wrong section.

Well, either..I would like any solution that works on TP2; either on WM6.5, or XDAndroid runnin off my SD card (see top two threads in android dev). Maybe someone even knows a mike fix for the latter. Ustream is nice cause it includes chat capability in the mobile client, but neither it or bambuser pick up any sound.
I just tried Quik4.2 on WM6.5 and it works ok, but Quik kind of sux, crappy website features in comparison and there is no channel chat at all .

XDAndroid requires updated acoustic libraries in order to pick up audio when recording video. Please search before throwing people off on tangents like that.
