hi guys, I need some help here. I broke my phone and got a replacement. I flashed DCD's latest rom to it. I used to be able to play m4a files on the phone, but suddenly I can't. What do i need to change/install so my ringtones work again?
Actually, that's a good question! I think something changed with the latest DCD 3.3.4 release because I remember them working in 3.2.6. I don't know if I have the CD to re-encode the files.
m4a files
Yea, I noticed that too...I used a program called Switch to convert my m4a files to mp3.
Just drag and drop the files and then select what format to convert to.
Cool thanks. It seems to have worked on my Mac

Ha, Did that before, but not my bosses phone, just my own. You have to tell us what ROM version you are using. The AudioPara files are different amongst ROMS version (GPS or NonGPS). I am going to take a guess and assume your boss is not running a 3.xx ROM? THe GC AudioPara is for the 3.xx ROM.
You can copy the CSV file from your phone to his phone, assuming the are the same ROM version (GPS vs NonGPS). To do this simply go to File explorer on your phone and copy it that way to the memory card or to a desk top computer using active sync. Then just copy it over to his phone then reboot it. It will be in the "windows" folder from the root of device. Remember when you are looking for the file you need to select "Show all files" as it is considered a system file and will not show up unless you do that.
Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
had it floating around on computer along with the gc version..believe this is version with louder speakerphone

is this the one that works with the original verizon rom?
The copy of the file that you put there is simply 'hiding' the original file that is in system rom. If you delete that bad file, the original system rom file will reappear.
So just delete the bad file and the ROM copy will reappear. (copy it somewhere first if it makes you eel better)
Help, I have just installed this AudioPara.cab file but now I have no audio?

Audio Para Files
here are all the files
Hi all,
I'm the new with this 4rum. yesterday, i upgrade my phone with [ROM] LGP500 AmberHome V1.1.
This rom 's perfect & work like a charm (thanks to corwin42). but for a while, i found that my music player & also video player does not work. Although i have many music & video files in my sdcard. But whenever i open music or video player, they do not find anything.
I searched our 4fum, but found no clue. please help me solve this issue.
Do i have to reinstall music & video player? Where i can find the apk file??? And how can i install, via adb? i guess ? I used root explorer to copy music & video apk file from GT540, and try to paste in P500 system/app via root explorer. But i got "install error"
Maybe stagefright is enabled. Try disabling it via the tweak script. You can download the script from the thread in the development forum.
I 've just tried the script, but nothing solve. The same thing happen with music & video player.
please help me ...
try another music player
Okay, try this (for a little troubleshooting): Open your file manager and go to the directory where you have your files. Try playing one of them. If it plays, I think your player can't find your music for some reason. If it doesn't, I bet it's stagefright.
By the way, after you disabled sf from the script, did you restart your phone?
after try the script , i restarted...
the music player can play the file, but in the screen it show no thing... i mean no album art, no artist, no song's name ... although my files have full information and show normally before i do upgrade. it's so strange...
Thanks for your quick reply
edit: btw, i do not see the music.odex in system/app folder? is it normal ?
Strange. I have this problem for only some of my files. Do videos play? Do the same thing just like the music.
the same thing happen. When i use file manager to open, it open & play as normal. But when i open video player, it say "no video"
update: i installed another music & video player. The same thing happen. They say no file in sdcard.
I'm not sure and this is just a guess, but I think something may have went wrong with the partitioning process. Do you have a backup of your files on the memory card?
yes i have, so i will try to re - partion ?
Yes, try to repartition. Then restore your backup to your memory card. Make sure you copy your files to the FAT partition, and not the ext one
update:
Things were solved. I do not know exactly to explain. When I mount the sdcard, I noticed that there's a file which was named ".nomedia". I did not know where it come from. Just delete & things were solved. I do not have to re - partion, now my music & video player work like a charm !
Any ideas abt the file".nomedia" ????
anyone knows how can I restore de stock alarm widget??
On my g tab running any version of VEGAn Tab, even the newest gingerbread one consistantly deletes video files from my sd card. Neither cyanogen and TnT lite do this. Is this a known issue or just me?
I had the same problem. Someone stated that it was a known issue. The solution was somewhere in the Vegan forum. Create a ".nomedia" file and save it to the folder you keep your movie files in. It seems to have worked for me since I did it a week ago.
Thanks, I'll try it, but I don't have any videos after they got deleted while I am on vacation. How do you create a file with no extention? Is there a file manager app? Im pretty sure you can't create an extentionless file with windows.
you can create extensionless files in windows.
Just make a note pad file that is blank and save it as .nomedia
Its a known issue and only effects some people. The why is not known but the fix is pretty simple. It just tells the os not to try and load video and pics on the card into the gallery app automatically.
I have a problem with my mp3's on my harddisk, or rather, the problem occurs when I try to copy them to my phone (on the sd-card if that matters). My cd's are ripped and for each cd, the is a .pls file indicating the order of the files (the files are not prefixed 01, 02, etc.).
My problem is that I have found no player on android (S2) that can use my .pls files (they are just text files with 1 file on each row, relative path) and the .pls file is placed in the same folder as the mp3 files. Then each cd has their own folder.
I have tried winamp, poweramp, builtin prog, video players and more. No program can understand the contents of my .pls files, but many do accept .pls files. How must the files be built in order to work? (format)
I have also tried with .m3u files and .m3u8 files, but it is the same story as with .pls.
I am at a loss. How do I transfer playlists from my pc (.pls or .m3u) to android?
Also, why is it that winamp cannot even see my mp3 files? Is it because I place them om the SD-card? It only finds a couple provided by Samsung.

You might give AudioPlayer a try.
- free version has ads, but runs ok without internet connection
- available on SlideME (direct download apk file, no google account needed) or Market
I tried AudioPlayer 1.10 on Android 2.3.6 (Samsung Galaxy Player 4.2). It will read m3u playlists with relative paths, whether opened directly in player or passed from file manager.
Playlist editing is limited. You can't view the list or reorder items, but you can remove the current item. Saving a changed list seems buggy. When I saved right away in the directory that comes up, I got relative paths. But when I back out some levels and come back to that same directory and save, then I get absolute paths that begin "../../../../../../../../sdcard". So it seems like it works best if you already have your playlists made.
I also tried renaming the m3u list to .pls (and added .pls as a playlist extension in player settings). This .pls list worked if the player opened it directly, but not if I went through the file manager.
For now, I'm keeping it as one of my installed players. It is simple to use. I like it for what it does. It has multiple seek buttons (you can set the time interval) which are handy for navigating long sound files. And it opens the now obscure RealAudio format for me, once I added .rm .ram file extensions in the settings (though this decoding might be dependent on hardware).
Okay, here's the back story, it's short. My SD card fried on me yesterday. I had a nand backup of my stock setup on that card. That backup contained a couple of voicemails from my 2 year old daughter (not saved/forwarded, just downloaded into the voicemail app) which i hadn't gotten around to saving in the forever style yet. (was going to restore the backup and save them, then jump back to current ROM)
Anyway, i got a utility that will scan the card and found a whole ton of files on there. What's more it looks like it actually pulled a lot of it from within the backup files (no kidding, i'm seeing icons and temporary internet files and that sort of stuff) in addition to stuff stored on the root.
Was hoping someone could tell me what format these files would be in (3gp, mp4, etc.) so i know what to tell it to pull out. it's a trial software and will only let me restore 10 files before it chokes (could probably just run again on another pc though) but can anyone help me? it's doesn't give me a folder structure at all, just files, and they're even named genericly. So if i know what file type i'm looking for i can just grab those and maybe one of them will be it.
thanks!!
I looked before, and believe its something proprietary. Try using ES file explorer or something similar, store a vm and check which folders updated the time and date..start there..only thing I can think of currently.

Mine are located on sdcard/smvvm
They are AMR files
I use ES Flie Explorer to find them
Hope this helps

sorry, just circling back to see this. i ended up giving up on it. wasn't able to find any reliable way to recover the card, so i guess it's just lost
