Hey guys, new owner to the Tytan here, I got Sprint's version though.
So far so good with the phone but i do have a couple nitpicks...
I already read about the battery life, i think the one i got at first was used or something cause not even using wifi a lot or bluetooth i was avg less than a day! I got another battery, hopefully it works better...
1st Question: I noticed Windows Media Player has no equalizer, what kind of programs out there do you guys reccomend for playing music that have more options than WMP?
2) I tried playing videos through youtube but WMP keeps giving me error messages saying "cannot read file" What can i do?
I got others but i can't remeber now.
Thanks for your help!
NOT sure about the equalizer...Search for tcpmp and the flashvideobundle and you can get youtube.

First of all let me thank EVERYONE who contributed to this site. I'm new to the Hermes world and everything I needed to know on how to flash my phone was documented in a very easy to understand way. My cingular 8525 is now running the cooked WMXL 0.20 relase with an upgraded radio from 1.16 to 1.35.00.11. I couldn't be happier.
One thing i've always wondered about my device is when I go to a site like www.pocketpcmedia.com half the time i try and stream a video i get a blank screen and can only hear sound. Maybe if i stop and start the video a few times i'll finally be able to actually see it. What gives? Upgrading to WMXL didn't seem to fix this problem.
What does the Streaming Media program do in WMXL?
Thanks

The issue with no video but only audio seems to occur when the videobitrate of the videostream is too high to be handled by wmp.
For pocketpcmedia you should try to select to "low" bitrate stream (but these sometimes also have a videobitrate wich is too high)
Do you have any examples for streams where this happens?
The streaming media Program is used for streaming in 3gp format. You can for example select the "3gp" streaming format in Orb. Then when you select a videostream in Orb you will see the streaming media program starting.
Does anyone have a working solution for YouTube on the 6800? I've searched everywhere and tried everything implied, but I still can't get it working. I've tried all the flash video packs, TCPMP, WMP, HTC Streaming Media Player (which won't cook for some reason, I get errors.) Nothing is working. And I love youtube. And i Need it! It's how people that should never be remembered for anything are remembered for something. And I have long breaks of downtime at work.
So if someone has a working solution, would you please do a short writeup or post the files here? Thanks
I use TCPMP and Flash Video Bundle. You need to get the new flash video bundle to do this because youtube changed some stuff.
Found my information here:

Search for youtubeplay it just came out. Works pretty nice, fastest way to play them yet.
I use skyfire browser and it works with no additional DL's, hollowood.com, any trailer on "those sites" and I can go to flash sites with no issue.
I never got any of those DL's to work on my 6800, so I just use the browser.
skyfire.com
ok so I got youtubeplay and it works good. thanks!
kickass
I'll have to try youtubeplay. Looks promising.
The only thing is that it only plays youtube videos, while the TCPMP FlashVideoBundle also plays video from other sites as well.
i def like that tcmp/flashvideo does other sites, and lets u download the video, but the interface of youtubeplayer is nice. def better if u know what ur looking for. someone posted this comment in the youtubeplayer thread, but it would be nice if eventually, the interface was improved to look more like the shhh....iPhone, but im sure it will improve anyways
tcmp/flashvideo best out there!
dont guess you would post the skyfire installer? the web site says the beta testing sign-up is over.
Thanks.
Skyfire requires you to register and asks for your mobile number. When you try it on 2 devices it tells you to deactivate Skyfire on your other device to use it on this one. Sorry or I would post it too.
Try this one, works for me.. also works for watching TV in full screen.

That cab does not install on my 6800. I copied it to my storage card and clicked on it - get an error message saying it did not install.

Skyfire remains as a locked beta and is not open to public use. Your bragging ain't helping one here in the now..
Try downloading vtap, it gets videos from tons of sites, and is easy to use. Its interface is similiar to that of the Iphone, and I have been using it alot, it works well.

Hi,
new to the site, and i gotta say that this is by far the best site for tips and tricks for the htc...
to the question, i´ve searched the site and found many answers to the question, but since this is my first day with an wm6 mobile i need my answer to be fitted to a noob like myself =)
How do i get my mp4 video files not to lag on media player? could someone link to a codec pack that works and give detailes instruction on where to put the codecs on the phone exactly... etc...
thanks..
Charlie
try to open them in TCMCP v8.1 (freeware) or COREPLAYER (shareware)...
Hi!
Thanks for answering...
Just drop the codec files straight in the TCMCP player folder in my dual touch?
Do they need to be in a folder or just drop them straight there?
You whould´nt by any chance have a link to working codecs?
Thanks again...
they just need to be on the same folder as tcmcp, here is some reading material:
http://www.modaco.com/content/htc-k...4597/is-there-an-mp4-codec-for-tcpmp-0-72rc1/
yo,
i´ve given up i get sound but no picture... isnt there a easy media player codec like there is for example windows xp that you just install for the pocket media player?
in anyway, thanks for taking the time!
There's no easy fix - either TCPMP, or Coreplayer are basically the two options.
thanks for your help... but i found a cab file called "Master codec pack 2" to the TCPMP on another forum and it works perfect now... i highly reccomend that codec pack to everyone!
thanks för your help!
I purchased the digital version of Alice In Wonderland. It does play on the HD2 with Windows Media Player. When I tap menu, then full screen, the movie plays in landscape, but does not fill the entire screen. There is black on all 4 sides of the picture. I looked in options, and there is a check mark in the box for "scale to fit window".
Is anyone else having this problem? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
I did search for an answer but found nothing. Why isn't my movie filling the entire screen?
Same Problem
Okay I'm finally getting back to my same old problem. No one responded before so here are more details.
Searches tell me that the HD2 will play wmv right out of the box. That's true if you use Windows Media Player. I can't get HTC Sense to even find my wmv file when I point the album right at the correct folder!
So I play the wmv with Windows Media Player and it won't go full screen.
Is anyone else having this problem? What's going on?
mmm every one knows windows media play is ****...try core player or TCMPC players their the best for watching video files
Thank You

Thanks for the reply. I've seen coreplayer recommended but there is no trial version to see if it will take this wmv to full screen. I'll look at TCMPC. Do you happen to know if either of them play videos full screen on the HD2?
I finally blew off the digital version that came with the DVD. I took the DVD and ripped it to a mp4 using DVDFab7. I have no idea if I've selected the ideal settings but it worked. I can play Alice full screen using the HTC Album.
trial version to see? yes it plays full screen..
1st rule google.com
2nd Search
3rd rule trial and error
3rd ur wasting my time and others time by posting this instead of actually reading descriptions and searching around!
hence why u had no replys
Wow, I cant help in anyway here, but I think the response given is totally uncalled for...
Of course I searched!

Of course I want a trial version to test it out. I could waste a lot of money buying every single app I want to try. I did search around and saw posts here and on other sites that said coreplayer doesn't have full screen acceleration.
I always search, I'm not new to xda.
Thank you Gstq10000, for your reply.
well for ppl who want things to happen things happen...soz i found a trial version of core before i bought cause i actually googled it...
it would be one less worthless thread on xda if ppl read the rules and used google and xda search
To the OP: What it sounds like you're experiencing is a resolution conflict. I've recently been experiencing this as well, and the "quick fix" solution was to reduce my display resolution when watching one of those videos. While I have little doubt that it has to do with the codec used to encode the video, I don't have a solid explanation for why it is that some videos have a maximum resolution after which they simply refuse to fit to the screen whereas other videos of similar resolution are all too happy to scale to fit even if it means enlarging the pixels so the video will fill the screen.
Perhaps a more knowledgeable traveler could shed some light on why this occurs if not also on a more permanent practical solution.

ok. yes, same on my rom- but after a reboot sound cloud works, tunein radio works 1 of 5 trying after boot ....
AND mp4 videoplay?
I think it sone connections problems or nicelly said RADIO problem, because this fix boosts radio and maybe it overboosts some coonections, etc streams and we can't get it work all the time...

To you too Miroslave all best
Radio got nothing in mp4 stuff and mp3.
MP4 (and mp3 in 7510 case) are decoded by hardware, Snapdragon QSD8650 allows to decode it by hardware, so we're able to view full 720p in max framerate.
The fail is that mango needs some changes in drivers, but I got it sorted already, just wait.
I found a TG01 with WP7 and they say everything is working 100%
Hi guys,
I found a phone in my country and the guy say that it has WP7 and every thing work 100%
I didn't follow the development of WP7 for TG01 and I know you have some problem with some drivers!
Do you want me to ask the guy where he installed the WP7? Or all the problem was solve?
Respect
