Ummm.....yeah...never would have found that on my own.
Bigger question: How do I video chat with my wife's ipad2. We have tried fring, qik,tango, etc... because she doesn't have an iphone there are no contacts in her ipad and when I try to invite her she doesn't recieve the invited because they are email vs. phone number.
If this is off topic, please disregard it but we are about to have a baby and when I am gone I would love to video chat. We can do skype, but phone to tablet would be awesome. Easy solution: buy her an EVO..

Awesome! It works! Man, people are going to be suprised when I show them that!
Great Job!

She could try going to igoogle.com or gmail.com and try the built in chat but other than that I'm not sure.
Just buy her an evo or a Nexus S 4g lol

If I tilted the phone it would appear correct for a second on the computer and then adjust to view sideways again on the computer. The video I was seeing on the phone was correct.

why don't you try the kernel i posted in the OP? See if it helps, if not you could always reflash the one your currently running.

Just flashed. Stuck on the "X" boot animation for about 10 minutes or so...
Worked ok for the time I tested it. Really didn't want to use all my 200mb of att great net. I did try to install adobe flash but the browser just kept crashing with it so I am assuming either a hack or a no go. Seems pretty stable for base os. Wishing you luck on the kernel compile build.
Attn is some kind or aria saviour for the community lol

Thanks, working OK now. Had to wipe all partitions to get it booted.
anyone else having problem pulling up a browser? its FC'ing without an error.
-the Multitouch keyboard from the other thread as well doesnt work and pops up errors to FC in a spam able fashion so make sure you disable it before you flash
-.avi files sound play but video is unwatchable
EDIT
Browser works now after a wipe n reflash
Browser seems to work fine. Can't seem to download paid apps from the market, slingplayer in particular. Will mess with it later.
Something about that headline got me turned on ... cheap and dirty ... mmmm ...

nice, thanks
This is a big double yes for me. First Froyo YEAH!!!! second I don't have an Aria yet YEAH!!!. I'm happy about the second fact because if I had the phone right now I would be so torn on this rom because of the lack of wifi. Now I don't have to feel so anxious since I am waiting anyway for hte phone. So hopefully when I do get it wifi will be fixed and I will be double happy again. Thanks Attn1 and Eugene.
Correction. I can download some paid apps, just not slingplayer. Rom is snappy otherwise.

alright guys. heard sacs is having some trouble with original ruu base for hd rom right now. but i know hes on it, maybe updates tonight. plus cams fixes added. Refer to FAQ.
I flashed this Rom and its pretty nice so far but I have two quedtoons. When I flashed this after going through the setup steps I didn't have a data connection I went into network settings and it wouldn't connect to a network. I rebooted and it connected fine but why would it do that? Second question is what is the 3g connection symbol? Does the 1x represent 3g?

Its a base from IncDoes still, sacs is currently, as of right now, trying to base the build of the latest ruu. So to answer both your questions, i dont know, but i will look into it right now for you.
Ok thank you
Battery drain seems to be pretty fast with this Rom. I have checked and it is sleeping but the drain seems faster than my last Rom

[App] Netflix (Sound, No Video)

Here it is. My room mate actually sent this to me via email. He was using it on his Captivate, and it works flawless on my Inspire. ENJOY!

EDIT: This is hit and miss. It DOES work on my phone (GingerBeast ROM), I am having reports that it does not work for most though. Many are stating they get audio and no video.
EDIT2: Please read post #10.
Just tried it and I'm able to log into my account and even select a movie but, when it plays, there is only sound and I don't get video. Running ace 1.01 if that makes a difference

As dumb as this may sound, I have to rely on someone else to try this method and report back. I'm "uptime" testing a Rom, and can't reboot. :-(
And also, 6 minutes and 23 seconds into Top Gear, and it just crashed on my phone...So it's officially not stable on my Rom either. :-(
**Mods, because this is not stable, can this thread please be merged with the one posted by gunnyman in General?
Well no luck running RCKingdom v0.2 and doesn't play at all but lets you browse. Sill early, I'm sure some dev will get it working in no time.
Here's to wishful thinking!
Inspire 4g on CoreDroid 6.3 with latest LeeDroid Kernal. Sound but no video. Even though it's half functional, I'm just happy the app is finally out instead of them ***** footing around release dates. Soon enough we'll be golden.
I'm running leedroid 3.0.3 and I'm still getting the white screen of Doom
I just tried it in gingerbeast and it doesn't work. I shows a black screen for 13 seconds and then it does back to the movie list.

Is there such a thing as a resource monitor for Android? I ask this, because my room mate has the Captivate, and it works fine. Always. Maybe witha monitor of some sort, we could see what resources are being used on the Captivate -vs- the Inspire and kinda compare from there?
Obviously these are two different phones, but the general concept of functionality should not be too far off.

Top gear is by far the best show on TV. Btw I'm running aosp rc1 and video and audio worked for about 15 seconds and now nothing
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
The room mate and I are gonna try to crack this case tonight! The plan is very stupid, but whatever. haha.
The basic principle of functionality should be equal clean across the board. It has to be the lack of a file or files that is preventing this. The hardware itself is VERY capable of working. This leads use to our conclusion...
I already had drmprovider.apk in my system folder, but did not have drmua.apk.
Tried adding this file and no dice.
Basically, if I already have the file, it will remain untouched. Anything else will be merged in, until it either works, or crashes the phone. I DO NOT SUGGEST OTHERS TRY THIS. I personally don't care, because I have insurance, under warranty, etc.
If we make any progress I will keep you all informed. And well...If I brick my phone, then I'll see you all in a few days. haha

Skype for HTC EVO 4G!

Finally Skype has developed a version for us EVO users. It is supposed to allow to way video calling via 3g and WiFi, although I still don't understand why they don't make it work with 4G as well. In the meantime I plan to test out the quality of the app, and the the quality of the video as well.
Please leave the following details so as to help others who have problems with similar setups.

Nice! Tried it out. Unfortunately only my back camera works when on video call:/ front camera is all static green screen lines.

Works well... running Synergy.
I just got skype from the market to stop telling me to "please re-install skype", and set up a video call between my two skype accounts, but my phone couldn't see the video from my PC nor the video from the phone (front or rear camera), and the PC couldn't see the video from the phone. I'm on CM7.1 RC1.

[Q] Video chat is sideways

I've searched the forums, google etc and can't see an answer to this. I've updated my ROM to the latest from Virtuous Unity running sense 3.0 and android 2.3.4 but when i try and do a video call, either with google chat, or Skype, my image always comes out sideways to me, and to the other person, no matter which way i turn my phone.
Any ideas why? Is there a solution? Tried a couple of other ROMs but same issue.

Is your mirror app unsidedown when you turn your phone to landscape?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
also for me, i can video call with skype without a problem
Yeh so can I. But test your mirror app. What kernel are you on
using 'My Mirror' from the market, no problems in landscape mode.
Kernel is v9.
I'm a bit of a noob with all this flashing lark, i rooted the phone and installed the 2.39 virtuous rom, so no idea if that changed the kernel to the one that the phone came with. How do I know?
Installed latest Skype and you are right video is now correct, but still sideways on google talk which i use more and prefer. So guess it's a google thing?
