[Q] Hulu Application

I don't know if anyone is working on that Hulu app but it kinda really sucks that it can't zoom automatically. So I made a Hulu application but with zoom functionality and a sort of lights out functionality.
any suggestions as to other things I can add to it?
EDIT: It is not finished, but some asked to see it so you can install it and try it out. It has some bugs atm but if you want to see where I am kind of going with it push it to your phone. Also note that this has the same limitations as the other Hulu application you need to have that custom edited flash install.
Start a video, then press the menu button and hit the Zoom button.
You'll probably notice that the background looks strange I was in the process of restyling it.
NOTE You need the modified flash file, you can get it from this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752582

Can I be a tester?

Contains a modified flash file. So uninstall your flash, and then install that one.

problem i'm getting with hulu and other flash stuff is the sound is slowed way down

There's a fix for that. Look in themes and apps for stagefright fix. I let it play like that to scare the **** out of my son with my demon phone lol.

This app does not seem to work as good as the other one floating around. The video seems to stutter and stop a lot and I get the "the video is not optimized for mobile" which I dont get any of that on the other version. Also the video, when zoomed to fit the screen, is jerky where with the other app, its is 100% smooth.... Also at one point, the video pixelated and then the program shut off and i was back at the sense screen.....
as far as Zoom, on the other APP, I just use the pinch zoom and get it to fit the EVO screen as best I can...

Anyone try this yet?

New home shell app available on market
Type in search bar mx home. It will populate with 2 versions download the one that's ces2011.

I can't find anything with what you gave to search.

Search for MXHome, one word. As for the actual mod, I agree with raylusk. Though I can say from the limited amount I saw, I hated it. I'll take another look when someone takes the plunge and buys it but until then I won't lose any sleep thinking about how it might work. I despise the single clock screen with set icons.

Tried it. Aside from the 3D clock, the app list is a bit more structured. If you tap the app icon or slide up from the bottom, it brings up an app list that can be sorted by name, date or category. It looks okay, but it seems pretty limited especially when compared to a shell like LauncherPro.

Tried it. Imo they are trying too hard. Its neat but over the top bloatware.

CM7 help.

Ok this is the first time I ever used CM anything. I figured out how to get the gapps but how to integrate my DB contacts with my reg. Ones? I've been on myn's so I don't know what I have been missing. I even read the wiki on this.
1. Fb integration
2. Changing toggles in notification bar.
3. Finding a red/black theme
4. Swype for cyan ?
5. Anything else useful I should know.
Please and thank you! (I'll be sure to hit the thank button if you help me.)

By DB contacts do you mean from a microsoft exchange account? Best to export them to a .vcf file and import them to your phone.
1. install facebook, under settings, accounts and sync, check the sync contacts box. That'll link it.
2. Settings, cyanogenmod settings, interface, notification power widget.
3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11760329#post11760329
4. Go onto swype's website, sign up NOW, they'll send you an email with instructions. Do it now because its a beta that will close soon. Its still free.
5. Enjoy it.

I flashed the themes from the destroyer ROM over CM7 and they work great as well. They will give you a lot of options, about 13 in the theme manager.

Contrary to what the person above me said, most themes you no longer need to flash. CM has the T-Mobile Theme Engine now, which just lets you side-load an APK, then select the theme in the Theme Manager app, then reboot. That's it!
No more flashing crap that breaks on every other update.

where are they? My CM theme manager only came with 3 options. Love to get more easily

I mean fb contacts lol and I'll try these. I was gonna say I'm getting horrible battery but it's hard to judge cause my phone was in the coat room with no signal 58%.

All over the place! There's some in the Market, and dozens posted in all of the Themes sections here on XDA. You could give BlueBuzzer or Honeybread a try, for example.
Remember, just download the APK, install the APK, select the theme in the manager, and then reboot. No flashing or anything. Taking a backup beforehand though wouldn't hurt.

The red CM7 THEME is amazing. I would like to know why my juice defender isn't working though. I cannot accurately judge my battery life but I know Juice would help me.

I don't use it personally, but not all apps are compatible with 2.3 [gingerbread] yet, so you may have to wait.

It's probably cause I'm running an older version. Don't really like the new UI. I am gonna try installing a different version to see if it makes a difference. Now I understand what all this GB hype is about.

Yea, I went gingerbread when it came out soon after I first rooted my phone and refuse to look back.

I can see why. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get my name on the lock screen in cm7.

Well I think that is what you're looking for. You do that method, except he used "karadorde" for his phone, and I put it teh roxxorz on mine. You can make the text say whatever you want it to. And mine shows up like that on the lock screen and notification bar.

It worked. I used AndroZip and Terminal Emulator. Wasn't hard I just didn't read the second set of steps cause I thought it was an adb only thing. It effin' worked I'm "pimpin'" now hahaha.

[Q]Screeshots

Hi,
How can I take screenshots from my phone? in ipods U hold pwr and home button together, so in HTC Wildfire there is a similar way to do screenshots? If not please tell me the way to do screenshots.
Thx

You need an app to make screenshots. Search the Market for it but i think they don't work without root.
Maybe there is one that works without but i'm not sure.

There a more ways to take a screenshot:
1. If you are on cyanogenmod, the screenshot option is build-in. Just press your power button for a long time and in the menu that appears, you will see the option to take a screenshot.
2. You can take screenshots with the use of adb (i.e. with the use of your computer). An excelent how-to can be found here. This way doesn't require root access to your phone, and works very well.
3. If you are rooted and you want to take screenshots without the use of adb and your computer, you can search the market and/or google. There are lots of apps that do the trick.
4. If you are not rooted, than it is complicated, as most apps require root access. I have found one ("Screen Capture"), but I haven't been able to test it. It requires a long set-up, and I haven't found the courage to do it
Hope I was any help!

Besides Screen Capture another name of apps? Cause I dont have time to look 10 pages in google to find the right apps. So if someone knows, please give the name . I'll appreciate. Thx

Drocap, ShootMe are among the more popular ones.
I use ddms.bat in the Android SDK, so I cannot tell you which of the above two is better.

Sorry i don't use those apps anymore because i have a customrom on my DHD where the screenshot function is built in.
All you have to do is to type "dro cap.apk" without"" in google and search for a site to download. Than copy it to your SD Card and install.
Make sure that "unknown sources" is checked in settings - applications.
This takes maximum 2 minutes.
Edit: I did the most work for you. You have to do the rest.

you'll need to be rooted, and use an app like Root Explorer, or any app that has a file manager that can access system level. go to System>App> and find two files, one is SamsungCamera.API and SamsungCamera.odex either change the name of both of these files (eg: SamsungCameraOLD.API and. odex) or delete them, either way SamsungCamera.API and SamsungCamera.odex should not exist anymore. now that you've done that, use that root file manger to place his hacked SamsungCamera.apk and place it in the same folder (System>App>). then restart your phone.
note* you may need to mount your R/W card, you can simply do that by the giant button at the top of Root Explorer.

If you're on a deodexed rom, then you won't have those files. Just reboot after dropping the apk in there, make sure your permissions are correct, and you'll be good to go.

What are the correct permissions? I tried flashing the zip through CWM but no go. I'm on a deodexed Rom also tried dropping the Samungcamera.apk file into system/app...
Thanks

I hear there was a camera mod that made shooting videos a much higher quality but it only worked for the international version of the GSlll. Perhaps doing it for this would be possible at a later date?

I am actually working on the higher bit-rates also. I have a few versions right now, in testing, the only issue I am running into right now is that when you use the power button for the shutter, it also triggers the power menu. It still takes the picture and all, but its an annoyance.

Has the video recorder always had that click-click sound whenever the ringer volume is on?? That's really annoying. I thought shutter sound in the camera controlled both.

CWM and TWRP installs are interchangeable in most, if not all cases. Definitely when you're talking about a simple script like this one.
