Live Media + GPS (looking for beta testers) **Stream video from your phone - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

** UPDATE 16-JUN-2009 **
Introducing Geocasting with Inca X (Video)
http://www.ix-m.com/
GPS Website
http://www.ix-m.com/gps
Latest CAB is always available here
www.ix-m.com/downloads/livecam.cab
The app is no longer in beta.

This program seems really cool, and I was watching shogunmark's video for a second, but wouldn't this absolutely destroy your battery? Activating a 3G connection already triple's my battery drain, and GPS throws on another 200-300 mA.

This is really good app and is very promising. I have been testing for phil for a while on this. Yes it can put quite a drain on the battery, however when im driving i have it plugged into the charger so as long as i stay topped off then it does alright.

i had experienced this before with some of dutty's roms, if the .net isnt cooked into the rom correctly then it throws major errors like that. try re-installing netcf and see if that cures your problems!
*i will note that on some cooked roms re-installing netcf doesnt help because of the way it was cooked in.

Mogul on Sprint
I've had a couple of reported problems about running the app on the Sprint Mogul, if anybody has sucessfully (or otherwise) run the app on a Sprint mogul it would be helpful to know if this is generic problem or not.
Many thanks
Phil

I have a mogul and it seems to work flawlessly. I was able to broadcast two separate feeds with gps.

Does this software work with WiFi, and cache the images & GPS coordinates, for upload at a later date?
I dont have an unliminated data plan, and uploading multiple images would require me to take out a loan
Cheers, Mike.
EDIT:
I've just gave this a try with WiFi, and it seems to work well.
GPS shows me moving from my office to my lounge, very freaky, very accurate
Just the question about the cache left.
I guess since it does "broadcasting" then it probably cant (yet?) cache the video and GPS data?
Cheers, Mike.

Since I posted lot's of people have emailed asking for a cache then upload option along with the ability to be able to disable the speed tracking
I've been working these today along with several other feature requests and hope to have a new build available sometime tomorrow with these updates in.

would there be a way to lock the screen while broadcasting?

Lock the screen how? You can always map a button to the phone lock.
Hey phil, any chance you can do an overlay and display speed somewhere on the screen?

I am unable to add AOL buddies. I have tried to add a few buddies, even my own. But every time it says that the name does not exist. Anyone know why???

I am getting the same error when i try to do a broadcast. I am running "[Apr 16] Dutty's WM6.1 5.2.19209 Release [User Guide & ChangeLog in Post 2] UPDATED" which has 3.5 installed already. I tried re-installing netcf 3.5 and i get an error about memory and closing applications, to restart phone and try to re-install. I tried that and got the same exact error. So i re-flashed with Dutty's rom, as listed above, but tried installing netcf from the get go and got the same exact error. Anyone have any ideas???

Would it also be possible to have an option to enable the flash?
The camera flash light on my device is only half decent, but having it on would be a great option.

Sorry, the software isn't linked in to other IM systems at the moment. Only other Live Media users can access your broadcasts, because they need the Live Media client to be able to see what you are broadcasting.

If you mean - stop the screen from going to sleep when broadcasting?
Then yes I am looking into a solution for that for handsets that don't stay alive while the camera is active.

greetings phil. very nice program. its working great on my sprint mogul.

Hi Phil,
Yeah, shortly after posting that question I messed around with it a little bit and made a test name. Everything is working great now.
Now, anyway of making the feed fullscreen on computer?

Version Update
There is now an updated version available, with some of your feature requests in.
Record Mode
Allows you record your broadcasts with GPS offline and upload them later.
On the Broadcaster's setting screen there is a new item "Live broadcast" - tap/select and the Broadcast menu option changes to Record.
If you have a storage card, then the files are saved to the livemedia folder, otherwise under \\appData\livemedia.
On the website, login and under My Broadcasts is a new link to upload your broadcasts.
Please note this is only applicable for GPS enabled broadcasts.
Disable sending speed data
On the GPS enable/disable screen there is a new menu item called "Include speed" uncheck so speed data is not recorded.
Check for updates
From the main menu this can now be used to check for and download furture version updates.

unable to browse web pages properly ???

Hi
i am having a problem with browing any website on my PPC, the problem is that when i try to open any webpage it stalls on 1kb and it only opens the page partially.
I read another post and they managed to solve this by selecting the correct encoding which was Western European. is there any other possible reasons why this type of behaviour will be experienced on the device?
hope te hear from the superior knowledge of the forum members.
regards
reo
I had that problem when I used one of the custom roms. When I flashed the stock t-mobile ROM, it went away almost completely. Once in a great while it'll happen but I'm talking like twice since going with a stock rom. Couldn't tell you what the difference was as the stock rom performance was fine and I didn't really care enough to look into it further.

I'm pretty sure it's a connection issue (I've had similar problems with, say, non-CrEme 4.1 + Toonel pre .54 combinations - see http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/ConfigureToonel45.asp for more info).
BTW, what ROM do you have?
MTU settings could it be the reason ??
Hi
Just to let you no, recently i travelled to another country and i decided to get a sim card and test my device in this country, surprisingly it worked fine i could browse with no problems.
only from in my country on my network do i get this strange behaviour.
Do u think its related to the MTU settings ? if i adjust this then mayb it will allow me to browse, judging from your response i noticed that this option that you suggested is to reduce bandwidth usage therefore allowing to view pages faster.
Thanks kindly
reo
Yeah, this seems to be a problem with your wireless operator. (You could still give a try to it in a, say, inexpensive, GPRS-capable "dumb" phone like the S-E t68i / t610 connected to your PDA / notebook)

You can surely give a try to Toonel (I've BTW linked in Toonel because, under WM5, the (old) Java version has exactly the same problems with old(er) Java environments - I've elaborated on this problem a lot in my articles. That is, the problem was similar to that of yours).
thanks for your help it is most informative, i am currently loading the toonel to test and i will post my results here.
thanks again

setup using newer versions of the program, i hope it does not create an incorrect behviour.
setup toonel have just a quick query
Hi
i have managed to setup toonel version .50, using creme 4.21. i have pIE and this all on a WM5 OS.
i did not utilise the link i just executed directly from the toonel.jar file.
now it is running but i would like to just clearify that i done it correctly.
about the connections i used the method u suggested and created a new connection under the top selection which is used for programs to connect directly to the internet and named it toonel, and made all the adjustments on proxy, i also put the details of the modem which is the GPRS connection for my country.
now i am ready to use.
i have a question about the tab in Toonel called WEB, is there any setting that i should have setup in here, it has a an option called Parent Proxy address.
Regards
reo
HI
ok, i had to reset the device for things to start working properly.
now i hve to use the link, it doesnt set creme as the default JVM. so after i execute i get an error saying **cant find class client.WebUI
im sure there it is a path issue, but not sure about where is the web.ui
reo
Don't struggle with the Java version - use the new PPC-based one. See http://pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/ConfigureToonel54.asp .
(Sorry, I've linked in the older Java version because it produced exactly the same symptomps under WM5 as yoour case, not because it's the Toonel version I recommend for you.)
hi
ok, i see. the behaviour i am experincing you noticed it using Toonel java version.
have you get any ideas what could be causing my problem ?
Now we no that it is probably a problem at my network, however is there any way to over come this ?
i actually noticed 1 thing, Magician S100 QTEK works on my network properly!!
any ideas what could be the difference ?
what are the chances that it is related to the UAProfile ? if so how could it effect the browsing ?
regards
reo
no luck with toonnel with "unlimited internet tzones"
now that tzones offers "unlimited internet" ( http://jkontherun.blogs.com/jkontherun/2006/12/got_tmobile_tzo.html ) I tried to use toonel with my wizard to speed up the connexion but didn't have any chance ... I tried the 3 versions on http://toonel.net/downloads.html (I even installed the Creme JVM) though ... some ports must still be closed ...
any idea/comment anybody ?
PS :
the good thing with "tzones unlimited internet" is that I can now use opera mini, gmail java, google maps java, etc ...
i had the same problem with uk tmobile. i called them and they said it would be fixed soon-and a few days later it was!!
maybe call your network provider before messing with your phone settings

Few Questions.

i know im a noob but i have a few important questions i need to know.
1st. Can you use wifi without the data plan? I bought a unlocked qtek to use on cingular and i was wondering if using the wifi on my home router was free. I really dont want to see a surprise data charge on my bill lol.
2nd. If i bought my qtek unlocked, does that mean it comes already pre registered with the wifi G or do i have to install the cab i found on xda forums to make it G. Thanks again!

Hi ipodlover77 - welcome to the forum. Using wifi as you describe is free. With some of the newer roms it is already set to G, but if you have the same rom as me (see my signature) it will not and then install the cab you found - if you use the one i made it will affect the wifi settings only
oh, then can you please give me the url of the wifi settings you made? will the settings work on a unlocked qtek, used for cingular? thanks. and also, is it possible to stream youtube videos form the site on ur qtek? and finally, (sorry, i always have a lot of questions ) how would i know if im using cingulars data charge on wifi or my own? when i scan for networks on wifi, will it says like "pay"? thanks again for all the help.

My cab is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=254420&page=15&highlight=wlan
Yes the settings will work on an unlocked qtek used for cingular. You should be able to stream youtube videos via your wifi router although only those that suit your screen size will prob work properly.
You should never have to pay to cingular for using your wifi on your home router - to test this you can switch your phone to flight mode (phone radio off) and wifi will still work. The only time you would have to pay for wifi is when you connect to a pay wifi hotspot and then you would have to subscribe to the service first.
so what is the difference between the wlan g tweak and the wireless plugin tweak? and also after downloading the right one, do i just move it to the memory card via usb and open the .cab over the phone? thanks

With the registry wizard this can do the g tweak for you, so you wont need my cab if you are going to install registry wizard.
Sorry dont know mms setting for cingular as i am uk - do a search it will be on the forum. What is book up? - do you mean look up? = google.

Try this then - (from coolsmartphone.com) TinyTube.net continues to get better and better. They've now made it even easier to find, send and watch your fave YouTube videos on your mobile. Take, for example, this YouTube video. Notice the URL - it's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCLYGoM1GrU. Now, if you'd like to watch that on your mobile all you need to do is type http://tinytube.net/watch/RCLYGoM1GrU into the address bar. Just copy the "RCLYGoM1GrU" bit and stick it on the end of http://tinytube.net/watch/ - this can then be used or forwarded to any mobile user via text or email as the address to get the video.
TinyTube fill a very important "gap" that other sites such as Google video have already plugged - being able to convert the Flash-based videos into 3GP format for viewing on mobile devices. TinyTube.net have now added an "SMS this video to a friend" feature for the USA with plans to roll out elsewhere soon.
Boot up software = how do you mean? for what purpose?

Hey you have set up your own thread for Q's lol. First change your name to Wizardlover77 and we are in business!
If you just turn your wifi on via comm manager it will automatically search for you. Others use wififofum http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1020
Plenty of roms out there - which rom are you using? i.e. the numbers
There is molskis rom that gives you 30mb free ram and farias new 3.2aku rom just to mention a couple. Browse the wizard upgrading for a week or so before deciding to upgrade and you will need to decide if you have a g3 or g4 chip - ipl numbers - .001 = g4
Change your notification settings for messages in settings\sound and notifications not to have vibration.

Sprite is the only app that can restore after a ROM upgrade
ok. So when i turn off my phone, it says some data will lose? which exactly will the device lose?
and also if i turn off my phone. does meschles Wifi G tweak, erase? it says its still installed but are the settings messed up or is it perfectly fine still?
ok I thought of another problem. like I said before I don't have any data plan on my package so I'm surfing wifi over my own home router. ok so I found this really cool site that actually streams the videos to my phones WM. is this costing me data I don't have? the videos streaming url was like mms something. just want to make sure its not costing me money. and lastly do they charge me for downloading stuff from the internet straight to my phone while using my router connection? thanks in advance!! happy thanksgiving everyone!

Ok, running it for one day
- After battery exchange (i have 2 of them), the password (simple PIN) i couldnt enter the device. The correct code just wasnt working. Made hard reset + cleaned up registry and storage and it was ok.
- Sometimes the radio just dont wake up. Maybe it is just problem with my BA as sometimes after the battery was taken out and colored stripes appear the radio and *next* version number are showing none (anyone knows why this happens?)

- Sometimes the radio just dont wake up. Maybe it is just problem with my BA as sometimes after the battery was taken out and colored stripes appear the radio and *next* version number are showing none (anyone knows why this happens?)

I do not recall the exact reason this happens, but it is a known issue that happens after the battery is removed/replaced. The only workaround is to soft reset the device after this appears.

First off ... have the "R NONE / G NONE" appear after changing the SIM and/or battery is relatively common. My phone does the same thing.
This is due to the GSM radio taking longer to 'cold boot' than the bootloader is giving it time for. Simply let it get a few seconds into the boot (before it starts loading the OS & redraws the screen). Then, hit the 'reset' hole once ... and everything will boot fine from then on.

Flightmodus
Hi,
I have a problem with the Flightmodus. After turned off Phone in Commanager, the phone is off for about 10min. Then the phone turns automaticly on. The same when I do a softreset. Has anyone a solution?
Christian
i don't have some problem with flightmode.Everything is very well!
Ok... another problem... sometimes (cant figure out what triggers that) my phone is not "online" on gsm network.
Everyhing looks like it is working ok, but it cant be called from outside and when i try to call out, it immidiatly disconnects. Then i have to reset it, after that it becomes accessible again (and i can make calls too...).
Highly annoying, i hoped WM6 will fix this but the same **** happens...

Hi, thats interesting. It may be caused by some software? Can you "recall" the problem with with clean ROM?

Yes. WM2005 helmi and WM2006 helmi. It just happend. And i am not using additional software for now, well... miomap, but it is not loaded in mem. It looks to me like radio hangs.

Geo-tagging photos

Does anyone geo-tag their HD photos? I can't find a way to enable it in camera settings.
I had to download an app to enable it on my TyTNII.
Can't find anything by searching this forum or Googling
You can enable it with HDTweak, as far as i remember
Brilliant! Thanks
I have enabled the option in HD Tweak, and have even tried Shozu and locr, but even with a GPS lock, it doesn't seem to save the GPS data to the photo.
I'm using the Orange ROM, and don't really want to reflash it just to make this work with the hacked footprints tab, so has anyone got any ideas?
TIA
My problem is GPS doesn't start.
I've been using the free GPSToday (www.geoterrestrial.com) and their GeoTagger plugin which monitors your photo directory. When it sees a new file it tries to get a GPS fix and then embeds the location in the file. So far it's worked flawlessly.
Can you try uploading one of the photos it's tagged too google picasa to see if it can see the gps data and map the piccy please?
So far, these things tell me they are tagging them, but when you upload them, it's not tagged.
locr and shozu both work flawlessly on my N95, so I know the platforms and google picasa work.
I attached a GPS photo taken with my HD (bike trip with my girlfriend ) with the 'GPS-photo' option. I'm absolutly sure it has GPS info in it, because I upload all my pictures to Flickr, where they automaticly show up on the map at the right location. Good luck
*EDIT* When uploading a photo as attacment to the XDA forum, all GPS data is stripped. So here's a direct link to download the original file:

Just tried uploading one of my photos tagged with GPSToday to PicasaWeb and it's recognised the GPS data perfectly. Here's the photo

Very simple but you have to edit the registry.
go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\P10
and set the value of "Enable" to 1
Thank you'll find a new camera mode in the standard HTC camera program that is "GPS". It activates and deactivates the GPS automatically.
Enjoy
Do you guys want to have gps info on all photos or what? I didn't get the point.
Touch HD Camera has a "GPS Photo" mode..which can be selected manually by going in to "advance" options in the "camera mode" .
right clicking on the image on windowsXP and checking the image property doesn't show the GPS info..but if opened with any other viewer..XNview..lightroom..photoshop.. in EXIF data u can see the GPS info.
so please tell me whats the point of using tweakers to enable GPS tagging? or i'm missing somethig

Not on some stock ROM images, such as mine.
I personally choose to use it because when I share photos online, with things such as Picasa Web, it shows people on a map where the pictures were taken.
No real serious use for me, but it's a little more info for people, and you can also view public galleries and it will display all pictures taken in a certain area.
EDIT: OK I found the option, everywhere I looked and in PM's people were telling me to look in advanced settings for this, it's actually an option on the 2nd page of "Capture Mode" and not in settings, or an advanced tab at all. No wonder I couldn't see it lol.

Yes, almost all m pics are taken on motorcycle trips. It's nice to be able to see where on the route they were made.

The tweak is necessary to enable the GPS photo button in the advance tab when using a stock ROM
How long does it take for you to take a photo this way? Mine just says "starting gps" and nothing happens. I even tried waiting 3-4 minutes, the time it takes Garmin XT Mobile to get the gps signal here, but nothing.
i get the point now! i bought blackstone with a diff language than i'm using ..and installed cooked rom straightaway.. so i didn't know the diff(to the minor details) b/w a stock rom and a cooked one. Sorry for taking things as granted!
thnx ppl for the info!

It takes about 10 to 30 seconds, depending on where I'm standing. It indeed should take about the same time as Garmin.
But 3 to 4 minutes is a LONG time for any GPS app to get a fix... If you get that working right, GPS-Photo will probably work fine too.

- Well, offcourse the obvious. Try it outside, with no high buildings etc. around you and that sort of things.
- Then, try to update QuickGPS with new satelite info (makes a lot of difference).
- DISABLE AGps. Does more harm then good.
- Maybe try a different radio. I'm using 1.12 and get very quick GPS fixes. Faster then 1.9 and 1.10.
Let us know how it turns out!
Anyone know any thing new on any effort to port Footprints to Blackstone? all posts are a bit old. there's a standalone that sorta works on Blackstone but the resolution is wrong so text is misaligned and its not very usable. anyone made any headway at porting it to a tab or at least a usable standalone? It would REALLY rock if anyone could port it to an manila v3 tab!!! i'd donate for the effort. sure many would!

I can't do that cause i still don't know how to backup the original radio. I would like to backup everything i need for warranty sake. I posted a thread here, but got no answers. I know it's all been explained here, but it's just too confusing. I know how to backup ROM, but i need to know what else i need to backup an HOW, before i flash a new radio and ROM.
The current device info is:
ROM: 1.14.479.3 (25874) WWE
ROM DATE: 11/12/08
RADIO: 1.09.25.14
PROTOCOL: 52.49a.25.26U
ExtPkg: 1.14.479.302

I did all you said, and nothing helped. However, i did notice this - i started Garmin, got a lock in a matter of seconds (after i did the fast GPS thing, so i'm guessing Garmin is using that), turned it off and geotagging worked instantly. So, i'm guessing camera has a problem using quick GPS or starting GPS by itself. Any ideas on this?

Pandora and TP2

I've read that others are able to run Pandora. Well, I can't run it on my tp2 (the cab file was the PandoraVga+Ivan1 that's circulating here in xda). I keep getting a C++ debug error. I've removed and reinstalled the app, ran memmaid to clean out bad files/registry, but that didn't work. So I installed the same cab to my husband's tp2 and it ran without any problems and no error messages.
Can anyone help? I'm very close to doing a hard reset.
Thank you for your input,
Theresa
Pandora works now!!!
So the C++ error must be because of conflicts from other previous software installs. I did a backup restore to a few weeks back and reinstalled pandora. Works like a charm!
I attached the cab that works on the tp2.
Good to know my TP2 gets here this week and I've been eagerly awaiting using Pandora on the go. Thanks!
i actually just installed the SP version of Pandora and it seems to work jsut fine the only problem is that the keys are hard to press because they are too small
Song stops before end?
I just installed this on my TP2 with Sprint stock rom.
Works mostly, but the song stops before the end and then says connecting and starts a new song.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!
Found my own answer!!
Do this for fully working pandora!!
http://fluffyphones.com/how-to-wind...-htc-touch-protouch-diamond-plays-full-songs/
My bad! It does not play full songs still!
Anyone know how to fix this issue???
probably have to do the advanced config 3.3 fix where you set the network packet size at 98xxx. Can't remember the value. The question presented was whether or not this would slow down the TP2's internet speeds. Give it a shot and report back!

I have not noticed a difference. All seems well
Does anyone think Pandora will release an official application on their website for us to use?

Pandora debug error fix. Took me awhile to find it but there is a topic here at xda
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4629192&postcount=83
Here is the credit
Well Pandora works on T-Mobile's network with the TP2, at least.
I've been trying to make the text for the menus bigger, but hadn't had any luck yet.
Installed, but where is it?
I've installed both cabs. However where is the shortcut or the program entry point?
Thanks!

Sadly no as WinMo is now dead thanks to WP7...
for this reason i switched over to slacker for my phone. there is a cab file, the buttons are big enough to press and the sound quality is way better than the hacked pandora one
