Maybe you could see in the Hero CDMA forum?!? Here!!!!! Doesn't hurt to do a little search, you know
It also doesn't hurt to provide a little direction to somebody without being snide about it! Normally I search myself - but you never know exactly how busy the asking the question is. If I told you all I've been doing just this weekend your head would explode.
Thanks for the pointer. Next time try doing it a bit more kindly.
Usually I'm not that difficult when people ask questions. But when it seems like they haven't tried to search for minimum five minutes, I can be a bit rude. Especially about questions like yours, where the answer is so obvious.
Indeed and I'm the same way so really, I do understand. But what you don't understand or haven't acknowledged, is that while I usually search for answers I've been totally swamped with my new multimedia laptop between working in Windows 7 and trying to get Ubuntu 9.10 to do what Windows 7 just seems to do seemlessly (fingerprint scanner - Windows? Check? Ubuntu, no driver. Bluetooth? Windows - just works; Ubuntu no go (go after reboot), Windows Media Center hook up to HDTV? Piece of cake. Ubuntu - can't display on both at the same time. Plus on Ubuntu the sound is not sent out the HDMI cable. Sound on Ubuntu? Mono! Windows? 5.1. Windows responds seemlessly to IR remote - Ubuntu? Doesn't know it's there!!!). The thought of reburning my phone right now is a bit too much for this weekend. Plus I've found a few threads where there's mention of 2.1 for Hero and I queried "Does that work on CDMA" only to hear silence. If I dropped the other 20 things I'm doing right now and concentrated on this then I'm sure you'd find I'd be up to your standards.
This all could be labeled "Hey dude - cut me some slack will ya?".
Back to the laptop, mediaserver issues...
It's okay. Good luck with your setting-up-ubuntu-project! I've been there myself!

Hi altogether,
I want to buy a bluetooth GPS Mouse to use with my Wizard.
Actually I ogle with the CMJ-1000.
Has someone experiences with this one or can recommend me another one?
Should be not that expensive.
I want to use it in the car, while biking and walking/hiking.
Thanks in advance.

Search just a little please... this is a thread just a few down from your new one... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=295300 I personally have given up on recommending accessories as someone will always have a new/better/different suggestion. Read the thread, you'll see some ideas. Let us know what you end up doing so others can benefit.

Sorry, but I read this thread before I posted this one ;-). First, the thread is quite old and did not contain the information I am looking for.
Perhaps I didn't specify my question good enough. "This device xy works fine for me" doesn't help me, because I don't know the needs of the user who is posting.
Perhaps someone who knows, could give some information, which Specs are needed/recommended/needless to different usages.

Well... just about any BT GPS receiver will work, so look for the form factor that suits your needs. Buy a receiver that has at least a SiRF III chip. Here is a site that has a bunch of receivers http://www.usglobalsat.com/ I use the BT359, I drive, I walk, I use it biking but not while I am riding (electronics, biking, death...all too related ) Someone else suggested the iBlue 737 as seen here http://www.gpspassion.com/fr/articles.asp?id=175&page=5
Something you'll have to decide is whether you want data logging. That is useful if you are using the receiver without a live BT-phone connection.
Mostly you need to think about what mode you are going to use it in most frequently. For me, its the car (where I have power so I can overclock the phone), but I do use it elsewhere but it just "depends".

PS you could have added to the old thread and it would have "become new again".
just thought I'd give an update
BT-359 with TomTom 7 works absolutely perfect on WM 6.1 ROM

Hello all,
If you are like me and have been using the Slacker Radio ripped fom the HD2 for awhile, you will want to know that Slacker Radio has gone offical for WinMo 6.5!
I have tested it out and is much much quicker for me and doesnt have that annoying stop in the middle of the song issue or horrible graphics issue.
Requires :
The Slacker mobile application is optimized for smartphones running Windows Mobile 6.5 with a screen resolution of 480x800
Edit: Member's are reporting that it also works perfect on 6.1.
Edit: Member's also reporting that it works on QVGA and VGA (but there are graphics issues)
Edit: Added cab for that fixes the problem of the music shutting down when phone sleeps, or when power button is pressed.
Just install and download and your music will no longer stop when you hit the power button
I cant find who created the original cab or tweak...I just recabbed it up
Edit: sirphunkee hooked us up with a cab that will fix:
I think it is my wifi that is closing when I turn off the screen, killing the connection and streaming to the TP2. Is there a fix for this that anyone is aware of?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Edit: 04/15/2010 New Build of Slacker Radio. Build Number 1.0.148
There is a new UPLOAD LOG feature, which uploads your data/changes to slacker Radio.
Please report any other changes...
Slacker Cab File also included
Here is the Cab File
thanks, installing meow!!

I am not to sure...thats QVGA right?
It might work just might be some graphics issues because its lower res...
I would think it would as long as your running 6.5.
I know there was already one floating around that did work but the screen was cut off on my touch pro vga, will this one be the same way?
Just wondering
I appreciate the post and will be taking it for a test drive. But where is the "official" release? I went to slacker radio to go check it out. Nothing about WinMo on the home page or the mobile page. Just the same old support very every single device except WinMo (iPhone, android, palm, etc).
So just wondering if i missed something.

+1 for stepping up and doing the right thing.
Can anyone report if its working better or worse for them?
it works about the same as the ripped one on my touch pro, everything is still cut off but you can push down 2x to pause, 3x to skip...the only thing the rip had that this doesn't (at least on my vga screen) is an exit. the ripped one had a "Force Close" (i think that's what it said under sign out), in the settings, and this doesn't so I have to close with task manager
Other than ofcourse Wikipedia, which was hard to understand..my Google search results came up empty!
From what I've seen Galaxy S is th only phone with Bluetooth 3.0..
I'm just curious as to what this will bring to the table that other phones will not be able to...
I hope there are some nifty bluetooth gadgets in production for our vibrant!
faster data transfer through bluetooth.
You will be prevented from using the Ryan Frawley's Wiimote App! Congratulations on your bluetooth 3.0 phone!
(And to provide at least some helpful information, he has not responded to any questions about the galaxy s line, our future froyo update may fix this for us).
@PathogenX, Yes I knew that...
@SquareBare yes i'm also aware of that.. i'll just have to wait... i'm liking the multi touch control... which works perfectly so i don't mind waiting til froyo to see what happends ...
i guess i was looking to see if this will mean video streaming or something... i think i saw an article like that b4.. but can't remember
anyways Thank you both for ur fast replies ...!!
The SGS family is the only smartphones in the world (if i'm not mistaken) to have BT 3.0. Okay, the Samsung Wave had it first.

Well, more of the blame lies on samsung than Mr. Frawley.
I read somewhere on these forums that Samsung implemented the bluetooth standard in a somewhat bizarre way. Kind of like how you have to swap wires around when you are connecting the video cable to your TV.
From what I see though, Samsung has acknowledged the issue and will correct it with the upcoming froyo update.

Samsung gets the blame for using the latest technology? How does that work?
I read in a press release from January of last year that the two main features of 3.0 is faster transfer and better battery life. In addition there is suppose to be some security enhancements.
It uses 802.11 to transfer the files like wifi does to transfer files to and from you phone.
http://www.gsmarena.com/bluetooth_30_specs_revealed_goes_up_to_11_thanks_to_80211-news-885.php
This isn't the article that I found before but this is one from the source.
http://www.bluetooth.com/English/Press/Pages/PressReleasesDetail.aspx?ID=16
The article I seen explained the bt/wifi thing better and said that bt 4.0 should be out by the end of this year.
I have googled the possibility and existences of an app that allows your phone to be used as an earpiece for your tablet/computer/ps3 but although i have found alot of interest in the topic, no one has an answer. so now i'm asking the great xda minds for their help. i will donate 20 dollars to working app that i can put on my tablet that allows my phone to take calls and be use as an "earpiece" for the tablet. i don't care if it's an app that turns the phone into an assessery or simply uses BT to transfer the voice data to the phone via two apps. my final goal is this:
have a tablet with my number/data plan
use tether to my phone/laptop
use phone to take/make calls on the lapdock
simply leave the tablet in my bag to use as a "cool" assessory but use the phone and laptop to do my work.
and, yes, i know i can use a BT earpiece as a replacment for for all this, but i hate something attached to my ear and i think that people talking to air is kinda goofy (i would say nerdy but this is obviously more nerdy ).
thanks for your time
this is NOT a question, this is a development request. please don't move to thread that developers won't read...
So essentially an a2dp app? Or... can't recall the protocol name. Starts with an H. Its like HVDO or something.
Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G on the network with the most backhaul, whatever that is. This post might have errors as I hate touchscreen keyboards.
Aha!!!??!!
So your Tablet is your Networked device, you tether a laptop for internet as-well as your phone......
This is because you only want to pay for one internet/calling network account i guess???
You'll find some interesting stuff on SourceForge.net essentially your windows laptop is capable of doing this, so i'm definite there is a linux version witch you can port to your Android device... And then simply code a nice GUI in Java......
Well Im studying atm so I can't help lol

Hi everyone
Everywhere I see the Acer Chromebook 15 is on the list of getting support for Linux, but not the 15 spin, while from the Chromebook 11 for example, I always see the spin version. Technically, I suppose there the same kind of device, with only a bit different hardware for the screen, but just to make sure, will the Chromebook spin 15 be able to make use of Linux apps?
Hopefully there's anyone who can clear up my dog about this.
Thanks in advance

We share the same affliction it seems. maybe someone will know soon enough
Very strange as my Acer 15 (non spin) now has it in beta form. I think the hardware is nearly identical to that of the spin.
Not going to lie and say it runs well as it doesn't. Very slow to get on its feet and crashes often.
Maybe a blessing in disguise as you might get a more stable version.
