I added a few videos to my Sensation, they are in the .avi format and are over 100mb each and I play them using the MX video player from the market. The pictures lag badly and doesn't keep up with the sound, is there any way to get around this?

The decoder for HTC's are usually crap, I use Vplayer (probably the best imo), but Rock Player is also good.

Why would you want to? THere is a gmail app mate.

Yes, I am aware of that - and I'm using it, but I was just wondering if there was some obvious reason you couldn't use the widget also/instead.

On a phone or browser? On google chrome use the app store and get the gmail app :biggrin:

It looks neat.

I don't think there is.

Also Google recently severely restricted outside access to the Gmail app (Launcher Pro can no longer show you the number of new emails on it's icon, for example) so I don't think you'll see a gmail widget unless Google adds one itself.

ahh okay, thank you. I'll just stick to the app then.

Hey guys, how much do you think I could get a Nexus One for? Pre-owned of course! I have had my Hero for just over a year, and today in particular I feel that I should upgrade lol

I like the trackball and the fact that I can stick with my current favourite dev :tongue:

and my Hero is still in really good condition, so maybe I could make most of my money back :colondollar:

Thanks in advance!

but I'm on a computer now so I can :gangster:

Thanks. I found one on the market called MoboPlayer and it's working a lot better.

Rock Player has worked well for me on the few times I have used it.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1031 - See the threads in here, it happily gives you the tools needed to unlock the bootloader if your device is S-ON. :biggrin:

EDIT: More specifically: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186401 - you'll need to S-OFF BEFORE root if not done already.

You may be best off going to them with your issues in a new thread, stating vital stats for the phone. Sorry I couldn't be much help. :biggrin:

ARrgh I remember having his problem after doing S-off. I fixed it but can't quite remember how :angry:

. It was something to do with the phone/card being mounted on the computer?

Basically I've decided I'm going to unlock my HD2, move to a £10 3 rolling contract and wait for the next big thing.

I'm going to wait for next weeks Samsung/HTC announcements then decide :smile:

For which phone?

Have a look here on xda-devs.

MIUI is my absolute favourite (after having tried Sense, stock, CM6 and CM7..). It takes a bit of getting used to because there are some differences to stock Android, but it is definitely the most polished ROM I've found.
