Chrome to Phone - Hero CDMA General

Just a link to a tutorial to set ChromeToPhone up from the Nexus One threads. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687436

I got it set up earlier and it seems to be working perfectly on the alpha version of Froyo I'm running.

Weather problems

I'm using NAND build Gingerbread v1.5 (non CWmod) at my HD2. Everything works fine except any weather widget. I live in Poland. In previous SD based ROMs stock HD2 and modded both winmo and android it worked but in this ROM it doesn't.
Heve You guys nay similar problems solved or it is about develop build bug in this case?
From what I believe...all 3rd party location based apps are broken in the Gingerbread builds right now.
You can set the location manually and it should work fine...its just not going to "follow" you if you travel.
between that and a hand full of pretty important apps (to me anyhow) that are not yet Gingerbread compatible, I went back to froyo for the time being. Im sure the devs here and the app devs will have everything sorted out and running smooth here shortly.
For sure. I have in my mind that is some app which may don't work proper at this build. I hoped that some body got solution for this till now. When not, I can live without weather forecasts it is nothing important of course.

[Q] CM7 & YouTube

(This probably belongs in dev forum, but I can't post there yet.)
I'm wondering about the status of CM7 and the YouTube app. I've heard comments that it doesn't work... but it works for me *after* opening a video from Opera Mini.
1) Open YouTube app, play video == sound, but no video.
2) Tried in standard browser, only plays in browser if I change user-agent
3) Tried in Opera Mini, clicking a video launches the YouTube app and it plays.
4) YouTube app now appears to work fine.
Any idea what's going on with this?
EDIT: I'm running Ladios' CM7-RC4-KANG ROM.
I just opened the YouTube app for the first time since a clean install of CM7 RC4 (w/ Ladios's kernel). I had installed the YouTube app days ago when I did the clean install, but haven't run it until now. (I know for sure because it just asked me if I want to accept the agreement when it started.) I just clicked on the first video I could find and it played with video and sound without any problem. I'm not sure why you're having problems.

+1 - new install of YouTube on CM7 N37, no problem playing any videos.
Interesting. Maybe I was just experiencing a glitch then. I'll update the thread if I encounter the issue again. Originally I was thinking that Opera may have caused a particular module to load that the YouTube app hasn't. If I'm able to reproduce the situation in my original post and stock CM7 works then maybe it's Ladios' kernel.

I don't think its ladios' kernel, I've been running his kernel with the latest nightlies for several weeks now, and YouTube works fine for me.
YouTube works fine for me and im running ladios's rc4 rom on clean install.

Navigation Volume too low

Hi guys, I have an issue with Sat Nav volume. I will try to break it down simply:
Sat Nav [CoPilot and Navigator tested]
Music app [PowerAMP and HTC Music tested]
Audio cable [3.5mm audio jack - plugged into car stereo]
Sound settings all full [set in Quick Settings and also manually set Navigation Volume when Google Navigator is running]
Audio is fine when any music app playing [with or without cable]
Audio is fine when any Sat Nav voice playing [with or without cable]
Audio is fine when any Sat Nav + any Music app both playing (music cuts out and voice becomes audible) [WITHOUT CABLE]
--- Sat Nav voices becomes too low to hear when both Sat Nav and Music playing with cable plugged in ---
This was working perfectly fine on stock HTC (both Froyo and GB) with kernel Buzz OCUV 1.0.6.
I have only seen this issue since flashing Android Revolution HD 5.1.9 > 5.1.10 > 5.1.11 . I have tried different kernels ( Stock ARHD > UnityV2 > UnityV3 ) and also retried Buzz OCUV 1.0.6 but the issue still remains.
Does anybody have any ideas as to what could be the problem?
Anybody have any ideas at all?

I've always had this issue too, All I have been doing is lower the music volume to half, set Navigation Volume to Full and then increase the car volume instead
According to google support forum, It looks like the issue is caused by GB 2.3.3, 2.3.2 does not have this problem so it seems downgrading is the only fix.
I have the same exact problem unfortunately.
I'm guessing you're using Google Navigation instead of HTC's Locations Premium Navigation?
I'm currently on 2.3.3, and I don't really have a problem with any bad navigation volumes. If you're not okay with paying to try out Locations Navigation, don't worry, you have a 1 month worldwide navigation license which you can activate and use for free without any restrictions.
Thanks for your 'input' Vious, but the issue remains no matter what satnav is used, premium or not.
It is a confirmed 2.3.3 issue with multiple threads on the google code forums

I hope they fix this soon. Such a GIGANTIC issue... i can't believe this isn't at all critical for them.
Same problem for me, Copilot support could not fix it for me also, claiming it was a problem with android not them. Used to work on Version 8.x.x.606
If this affects all versions of Android above 2.3.2 then it looks as if I have little choice but to buy an iphone or wp7 phone next, Google are unbelievable sometimes!
6 months and still no fix, I love Android and would hate to switch but this is a complete joke!!!

I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to share my solution for this same problem that I've been having since upgrading to the new gingerbread. Note though that this is no longer an issue if you're using the latest google navigation app, but if you're like me and you like to use an offline nav app like CoPilot, then this solution should work for you.
Since this problem was introduced in gingerbread 2.3.3, I thought I would try replacing the libaudiopolicy.so library with one from a gingerbread 2.3.2 rom I had laying around and voila, that seemed to have solved the problem! I haven't tested this thoroughly, but it seems to be working so far. I hope this helps anyone else out there that is still suffering from this issue.
Could you post the file? Also, have you encountered any issues so far?
Perhaps post this in the previously mentioned google code pages for more testers....

Here you go! This one is for sense based roms.
No issues so far!!
Perhaps when I have a little bit more time, I'll post a link to this thread in those referenced google pages.

Nice one I'll give this a try
I presume the libaudiopolicy.so file you posted is from a Sense ROM, it didn't work for me as I'm running BlackIce which is CM based.
Downloaded an early CM7 nightly based on 2.2.3, copied that file over and it worked!
I have updated the previously referenced Google pages.
Attached is the CM7 2.3.2 libaudiopolicy.so if anyone wants it.

Yes, sorry, forgot to mention that. I've updated my post so now it won't confuse anyone else.
I'm glad the one from CM7 worked for you!

Thanks hexion, you see this is exactly what I have been trying to say all this time - it must be something slightly changed in some audio file somewhere between 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 . I just have no idea about Linux / Android so never knew where to look for such things.
Now all we need is to compare these to see where the changes lie and try to patch the most current libaudiopolicy.so with only the previous Navigation settings, leaving all other new things as is.

Hey rgrover, I'm also on CM7.1 Nightly. I tried renaming old file to libaudiopolicy.so.bak and copied the file you supplied into system/lib but now my device will not load past white HTC screen after reboot. Any advice?
UPDATE: it's OK it seems it was just a permissions problem. Everything working fine now
Hexion, you f**king treat !
My DHD is now pure perfection, with CM7.1 installed and this Sat Nav fix. Everything works at it should and I need nothing else from a phone (apart from battery life, but hopefully I can get Daemon Controller on CM7 at some point with better kernel).
If I had mone I would buy you a bottle JD (actually I would buuy myself one lol, maybe share with you XD )
Apparently, this fix for sat nav apps does not work for Google Navigation and TuneInRadio according to chykal1 on the google page. Music will not be lowered when the nav voice comes on. So if you use TuneInRadio a lot, you probably shouldn't apply this fix. Maybe when someone patches the latest libaudiopolicy.so, then we'll have a true solution.

Netflix for us!

Netflix V1.3
Just tested and it works good but i think the audio might not sync up. testing some more.
ok i'll try if last time I tried the general one it had issues with a green bar at the top and the colors looking funky.

I believe that is cause you are running Bumble bee? which is froyo and netflix doesn't like that. if you run gingerbread it should work.
I'm running Inferior Humans CM7.1 I have problems running version 1.3 on my Optimus V. It goes to play the move and then crashes back to movie selection menu. But this version runs fine on my EVO running CM7.1. I have a previous version of Netflix and it runs fine on my Optimus V, except for it asking to update when the program starts.

Lightpack (Prismatik) and Nexus Player

I have a Lightpack box that I was using on my HTPC runing Kodi. However, I wanted to replace that with the Nexus Player. I've rooted and installed Prismatik 0.4 on my Nexus Player, however it doesn't seem to be able to use the screen capture, though it will show the mood lighting or solid color.
Has anyone ran into this issue, or even gotten the Lightpack working properly with any android 5.0 device?
Hi, I'm also trying to capture screen with Prismatik 0.4 on ODROID-XU running the aplha of Android 5.0 , but ran into the same problem - requesting root access (granted), then Prismatik complains smth. about "new capture server cannot be used, use the old one instead", and nothing happens.
However, IIRC, on my previous CM11 4.4.4 with ODROID-XU, Prismatik behaved the same.
There is github for prismatik-for-android for issue reporting and google+ group... I beleive we should post our logs there.

It sounds like I've done all the same things, with the same output. I can't get the screen capture to work, though I can get the mood and solid color working through the app just fine.
Have you had any luck finding a solution?
You have got futher than i have so far.
It seeing the lightpack and has root access but cant it do a thing not a single light comes on
