Not all apps are working! - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi,
I'm running MDJ Froyo Z v.10 on my HD2.
Perhaps already discussed.
Not all installed apps work perfectly.
Google skymaps ,starts up but then stays black.
Dolphin tv, starts up but shows no video.
Some youtube video download apps, only audio, no picture.
Even video on storage card only have audio.
Is this common with all Android on HD2?
For the rest it works perfect, except for the lousy battery life.

Thanks for answering. Bye!

Afaik there's a fix for the skymap if I'm not totally wrong..
But for the other apps I can't say something, don't use them.
Edit: Which kernel are you using?

[Q] mms issues across the board?

After reading a post in the vanilla 2 forums about someone else having problems with mms...I got to thinking I wonder if mine still works with my wife's env3. Send a small video msg to my phone and low and behold, while I receieved the msg just fine...when it tried to play the video I'd see the first frame..then nothing. The progress bar would continue to run through but the video itself was not going, nor was the sound. I tried kaos v32, nonsensikal 5.4, celb 2.3, vanilla rom beta 2, tainted tenzo, ALLL of which had the SAME issue. While I had kaos installed I thought maybe its the messenger app so I tried chompsms...SAME exact issue. I DO have some videos on my sd card that play just fine. I changed the resolution that my wife's phone sends at still to no avail. ONLY thing I found that DID work is I installed xtrRom 4.0.6.1 and that DOES show the mms video properly. Any ideas? While I'm not knocking xtr but any chance...it'd be nice to know what the issue is and/or be able to use other roms.
The issue is specific to AOSP ROMs..
xtrROM has a vanilla feel but runs the stock HTC framework and messaging app. The HTC libraries and decoders are largely proprietary in my experience so they are not easy to just port over to AOSP...
Nice testing & feedback and I know tenzomonk is looking into it...

Yes this is not really an mms issue but more likely a video codec issue....do you know what file format the video messages are sent in? Although I would think the messages would be sent in 3gp if recorded on a cell phone so they really should play. Is there an option to save the video to the phone and then try to open it?
I was thinking it might be a format issue as well but they're 3gp format so should be able to play. Someone on irc did mention I could save the video and it might work but shouldn't this be able to be done by default? Hopefully someone can figure out a fix without having to save or install an additional app

Music player 3.0 (official Google)

here it is:
http://techfrom10.com/2011/04/the-android-test-market/
works like a charm on Cyanogenmod 7 RC4, even lockscreen commands, replaced old music.apk with new one in system/app (s-off or via adb)
enjoy!
cheers
I agree it works great - a big improvement from the previous leak.
This is also being covered in the general Android Apps and Games forum:

Larger than Winamp (7MB as opposed to 3MB once installed)
How did you get the lockscreen commands working? I had nothing. I'd maybe use it then as it does look nice, but Winamp has a better widget, plus lock screen.
It is force closing on my desire using gingervillian... any ideas?
it is working on my Viewpad 10s not optimal but useble..
Mine keeps saying "application not installed". I'm using oxygen 2.0.3. Any ideas?
I cant get it to install. I says application not installed everytime. I read somewhere that i has to do with the fact that i installed the older leaked version. How do i remove the old version completely?

Yes. That would be nice.
Not good... tried a few things.. looks ok .. uninstalled
buggy on oxygen 2.0.3
I really liked the interface though it is quite minimal so it's a shame that:
interface is slow to load and lags (not just on first load)
scrobbling gets very confused (last.fm doesn't know what to do and flashes scrobbling notification repeatedly).
uninstalled.
edit
downloaded a different version from some forum after reading an article about syncing music with latest music app. seemed to work very smoothly indeed.
I installed the one from here: Official Android Music 3.0 Beta! Get It Now!.
It works fine with the MIUI 1.4.8. But I'm missing some features like sleep timer, editing ID3-Tags. But I like the interface.
Is there a way of making this the default music app and having it work with the HTC Lockscreen? I Like it other than that.
I don't like it at all. It looks quite cheap compared to the older version... and compared to other players, including the stock HTC music player. Also, why so laggy?
thanks for this...
gooooooooood

Skype now supports video chat on Android, but..

It isn't available in the market any more on my Transformer, and it lists a very specific set of devices for said support. I wonder if there is a way someone can hack this into a working state?
LOL Skype doesn't support video call for android except for the Thunderbolt haha. And devs have been trying to port that over for months but unsuccessful so far.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
No, there is an update today that changes the UI quite a bit and apparently adds video calling for the Nexus S, Desire S, Xperia neo and Xperia pro. I copied the apk over to my TF and it works, but no access to video calling functions. I am wondering if I can trick it somehow.
Holy ****... The OP is right.
Skype has been updated to version 2.0.0.45, which includes video calling for selected devices (Nexus S and several others). It's no longer visible on TF in the market, but I updated it on my Galaxy S. It works on SGS, much better interface but no video calling.
Haven't tried this apk on TF yet, and I really hope someone can do something with it.
Edit: Beat me to it!
Gotta remember here.... "Android" doesn't really mean "Every device that runs every version of Android".
I believe there are some hardware issues to be solved to support front camera video on every device, you can't do it globally in one go for every android.
It appears honeycomb support is dropped at all, maybe they release a seperate version.
That's very strange, because I can find it in the market even if a lot of people said that it is no more available... but when I try to install it is saying that it's impossible to install in my device.
Is it normal to find in the market apps that you can't install?

I think you are referring to the online market while the others used the market app...
I just downloaded the app to my desire S and video called my friend , the video was actually pretty impressive. it started off a little pixelated but about a minute it in its was very clear and very responsive. the call was made over wifi.
happy.
Here is the info from the apk, if that helps. I tried changing my build.prop to match but after that skype just crashes.

I posted a working version without video calls on the previous page eh
Just a side question that I always want to ask.
How do you copy out the apk downloaded from the market your phone to the tablet?
(Like this Skype apk, its not longer visible for the tablet in the android market), but from your phone, you can download it from the market. Where its stored in the phone and how to copy it out?
Thanks for the info!
if you install appinstaller from the market it has a backup feature that stores your selected .apk file on your sd card in a folder called back up i believe. I'm sure there will be other back up apps out there but this one has worked great for me in the past.
Just got notified of a new Skype version on my tab. Seems like maybe they've allowed Honeycomb installs... anybody tried it?
Ye. Just installed. NO Video. Better UX imho

Problem with google search and playing videos
Hi! I want to report bug with google search app (GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk) on enabled tablet ui. I'm on m5 v2 build with latest camera + youtube fix with LCD Density set up to 128. When i press it, it fc. It doesn't work at all. And second bug, when i record video witch Camrecorder, i can't play it from gallery. First time when i press play button it shows error, i press ok, and when i press second time play, it runs, but only sound - video is full of artifacts. By the way, this rom is exelent! It runs perfectly! And I'm sorry for my bad english.
it is a known issue with the video as we dont have full hardware decoding so the workaround is mx player arm v7 codecs and set the encoding to software as for the search bar first time i hear about it i will try it out now
Hi this thread is a great Idea. I actually have a couple of questions
if I use youtube and camera fix from the third post, Youtube app will work properly and panorama mode in camera will work but I won't be able to record videos more than 30 secs right?
also what resolution does the video camera record in? and can I change it?
thanx in advance

Huge Issue:
Sometimes (after a while of usage) my apps are not starting when i press their icons. The app drawer isnt working aswell then. The Icon just glows up, but nothing happens. I cant get into settings aswell. After this happens, my screen gets a SOD if i turn it off and want to wake up my device. Only solution for that: Pull out the battery or if there is no SOD yet, reboot the device.
This problem does NOT belong to the launcher, since i have tested apex, nova and trebuchet.
This problem does NOT belong to a specific a2sd script, since i have tested Link2sd and darktremor script.
This problem does NOT belong to a bad flash or sth like that, since i have made 3 installs from scratch for now (task29) and always had the same issue after a while.
My config:
Bootloader: Tested with clk and magldr
CWM: latest
ROM: [04-05-12][ROM] Unofficial AOKP for HD2 [Milestone 5 v2][HWA][4.0.4][tytung_HWA_r1]
Kernel: tytung_hwa_r1
This issue seems to be more rare since i have only heard of a few others having these issues.

YouTube app play back with screen off

Hi does anyone have a apk for YouTube so I can playback with the screen off thanks
Try Viral:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Mata.YTplayer
It has 1mil downloads, but it looks like the recent update from YouTube makes it crash.
Ok thanks so much
Just downloaded it yup I can confirm it crashes any other suggestions thanks
that's weird, it works perfect on mine.
make sure it's on hardware acceleration under settings.
and try setting the video resolution to 360p.
Ok I will try that thanks
I've been using this one for a long time. Still works great for me. Just remember to refuse the update (every once and a while when you start the app it will say a newer version is available on app store, just say no...)
