Guest HoTdiGiTi Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Just recorded video in 720p but details later show 3gpp, which people already realised. But what else i figured out, other video files i recorded on o2's 2.1 build also show all video's recorded in720p also show 3gpp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XsCode Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 That's interesting because it definitely worked on 1.6. is it possible that O2's update screwed it up? Just recorded video in 720p but details later show 3gpp, which people already realised. But what else i figured out, other video files i recorded on o2's 2.1 build also show all video's recorded in720p also show 3gpp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 10xOXR Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Afternoon folks, This is my first posting here and I am still a total n00b when it comes to Android. I've installed 2.2 thanks to all the awesome information that's been posted here so far (my thanks to all of you) and everything more or less works; the only niggle I have is Marketplace. I'm aware that there's an issue with protected applications that's currently being worked on, but I also seem to have access only to those apps developed for the North American market and not Europe. Not once have I seen any paid-for app in the market with a UK '£' value, only '~£', which tells me it's converting the prices from US$. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or is it related to the known protected application bug? Thanks guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LET ME START BY SAYING THAT I'M NOT TRYING TO INSULT YOU OR ANYBODY HERE OK... :) I would like to suggest to Everyone who is "in my opinion" ASKING about this or that, why not just find the APK's for what it is you are missing or just ask around like I have someone will help you or point you in the right direction… Once you get it simply Side load it and then just WAIT for a fix for the Market... This should be a victory of sorts and all I have been seeing is hollow, shallow, pats on the back then the KNIFE appears to slash him in the other side of his back. It's really sad folks this guy has made this device RELVANT when everyone from Apple to ZDnet was writing the it off. And out of 523 and counting replies so to speak most of them are asking him to " add something or fix something or do something more. When is enough- enough!!! I'm just saying. :D Check my "newbie" status I love coming here and all I see are people who don’t read the forms MOST of these type of questions don’t need an answer they just take up space and it kinda sucks. Hey I did not have anything to do with Stephens 2.2 build so why am I defending it? Simple--- AND I QUOTE” HE MADE MY STREAK RELIVANT AGAIN & He didn’t have to do this !!! So, those of you who take offense to this I’m not sorry because it’s not an insult to you, you are probably so excited that you can’t form your words to simply say ---- Thank You - - Stephen….

Guest tonymenocal Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Hey guys! How is everybodys froyo doing? From what I've seen on quadrant benchmarks I'm averaging around 800 to 850.. do you guys think this will improve or are we pretty much limited by hardware at this point. Btw I understand that this is a beta but how much potential do you think we will see with this device? Btw I renamed and moved build prop and noticed no change. Camera still broken and launcher forgets to re position. Batter life lasts 4 hours Anyone getting a cooliris crash?? What directory do we get logs from? Been stable since Friday!

IF so, change it to U.S. Bunch of threads etc on this. You can do it the easy way and install root explorer and then edit the build.prop in /system. Reboot when complete. May need to search. To all: Froyo working super here. Donation sent. Set density to 240 and wow this changes everything for my older eyes and big thumbs. Might bump it back down a bit. Thanks all!

Guest HoTdiGiTi Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I think your missing the piont of a forum here bud, not every post is directed to steve. People have posted info for other people to compare and discuss to see whats relevant regardless if there a noob or not.

Guest phjnky Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Sadly i went back to modoco 2.1 because wpsk2 wifi dont work i rely heavaly for this to work hope to see a fix soon and battrey life was very bad compared to 2.1 so will wait for a great rom to get greater then i will be happier That's a bummer but hopefully a fix will come soon. The wifi problem must be related to the specific wireless router somehow as I'm using the same protocol with my router here and no problems. Glad to see someone using 240dpi 0ther than me :) only thing that doesnt fit is the phone, download (dialerone) and replace it with the original and it works perfectly :) Thanks for that tip! Looks perfect now and I like that dialer much better as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both my home and work networks! +1 I've now better battery life than before. Juice Defender rips on this build. And WPA2 works fine as well, though hand inputing that hideously long key string was an adventure all in itself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnnobts Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 i instaled froyo using both methods (flashing baseband and new-update) on my ATT Streak. The new-update method is definitely the way to go, as I have fully working GPS and wifi/data working correctly too. Just about bug-free. Excellent work, Stephen.

I am missing apps from android market. Can you please see if you can find Barnacle wifi tether or Android wifi tether from your phone? I need to get Wifi Tether working on the streak. I have a old barnacle APK, but that did not work. Also Froyo's built in Terthering is not working. Thank you Stephen and all others that helped us getting Froyo on Dell streak. I think it is the best thing that happened to Streak. Edited October 11, 2010 by jagmohan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
