    Thread Music players not saving playback position - SWM8802

    I'm looking for a music player app that will successfully restart playback from (approximately) the position where it was when I switch off the car. In the past, on my old Android 2.1 unit, I used Music Folder Player, and it did pretty good. But on the SWM8802 I'm fiddling with, it only seems...

    Thread Navigation "Next Turn" indicator widgets (or launcher that can do it)?

    99% of my driving, I know where I'm going and I only need music and GPS speed info displayed on my head unit. On longer trips, even if I know where I'm going, I'll use Google Maps to help me keep track of how the journey is progressing, but I don't really need the entire full screen map. What...

    Thread Bakc to stock?

    Just a quick (stupid) one - As long as I stay on the same major version (pie), I can safely reflash the Xiaomi stock ROM in the normal bootloader mode, right? Problems only come up if you try to go backwards?

    Thread Unlock bootloader on non-booting device?

    I updated to Pie today using OTA. This resulted in a bootloop. Since my bootloader was already unlocked, I booted TWRP (not flashed) and swapped slots. This resulted in booting to the recovery "no command" prompt instead. So I downloaded the only ROM Xiaomi has on their site - 8.1 - and flashed...

    Thread Grouper ROMs with multiwindow/splitview?

    Just wondering if anyone can direct me to a specific grouper ROM (including version) that has a working multiwindow/splitview system built in... Are there any? The ones I thought should have it didn't seem to. I've also tried XMultiWindow once, but it just didn't want to work right.Can't...

    Thread [Q] Disable "useful" tip popups?

    OK, just got my Note II yesterday... First thing I'm noticing that's driving me insane is the amount of "help" it's giving me.... Is there a simple, single place to switch off Samsung's helpfulness? I went through half of them once already and decided to reflash with a more local ROM (instead...

    Thread Replacement LCDs?

    Does anyone know if/where I can get a replacement LCD+touch panel for the XDA IIs cheapish? I've found a few places, but at $300-$400 (Australian) it seems cheaper to buy a new phone! Why do I need this? Well, I kind of ran over my phone and the screen broke. :( Everything else functions...

    Thread Connector pin 19 speaker mode in 2005?

    I connected pin 19 on my car holder connector to 5v hoping to have speaker mode in calls immediately. It appears to not work though, and I have a feeling it's due to the ROM I'm using. Can anyone tell me if it's supposed to work on Blueangels? The connector page doesn't say, and the blueangel...

    Thread Start program on plugging into car kit?

    Is it possible to have my device start a specific program (or collection of programs) when I insert it into a car kit? The CAR_ON# pin for example... Can I have this detected and trigger a program to run? Or the Sense pin?

    Thread Connector serial type?

    This has been asked on here before, but no answers.... Is the serial port on the BlueAngel RS232 or TTL? If it's RS232, does it have the power to drive a MAX232 style adapter off the connector, or will I need external power?

    Thread Can bluetooth do this?

    I go bike riding (pushbike, not motorbike) with groups of people sometimes, and we've been listening to music using the built in speaker of my BlueAngel. Of couse the volume isn't great especially once it's safely back in it's holster. So while we were out the other day, we started thinking of...

    Thread Bluetooth headset recommendations...

    I'm looking at the idea of getting a bluetooth headset for riding my bike (the self propelled kind, not a motorbike). I'm not keen on the idea of paying ~$AU100 for something I find is useless, so Im after people's experiences and suggestions. I'm mostly looking at this for listening to music...

    Thread Backing up with WinMob2005??

    I notice MS have removed the Backup and Restore options from activesync when connected to a WinMob2005/5.0 device. I dont really understand why they think we dont need to backup, but I'd like to still... So does anyone have a recommended method for backups that doesnt involve paying for a 3rd...

    Thread Wifi on/off shortcut

    At one point, I used to be able to tap the connection icon at the top bar (the one where it shows activesync, GPRS or Wifi) and in the bubble that it brings up, I got an option of "Turn Wireless On" (or Off). I no longer get this option ever since a random hard reset I had one day. I cant...
