mine showing how the screen protector looks like?


anyways, tried converting a H.264 file to mp4 using Super Converter
it's actually quite easy to use, though i would say speed wise is definitely not the fastest, but who cares?

one thing you have to take caution is that for all the videos you convert, please make sure the FPS is the same as the source. if you try to bump up or down the FPS, it'll look quite wierd resulting in choppy video (and your sound may or may not sync too well). how can you check ur original source FPS? go media player classic, then Shift + F10
go to details and check the source FPS.

i'm gonna convert more now

hey guys, need some help here
to those who encounter problems with the earpiece problem, how often does it occur? every call you received or dialled? or it's more of random basis?

also, if i were to send it to a care centre, would it be sending it to the one at Berjaya Time Square? or the one at Sunway Pyramid would suffice?

i'm suspecting my earpiece might have that problem as well but it does not seem to happen too frequent (it's only happen to one person that i dialled out quite frequent to, but the others doesn't seem to be affected :S)

hmm, maybe i might just visit the one at pyramid (though i recall they are not open during festive seasons :s
my only concern is after they fixed it, it might just gather more dust as in the past upon opening the front casing for the 1st time, it'll just gather dust till no end. i wonder if NCC would do a better job than me

haha, i think doing it myself will just end up the screen collecting more dust
maybe i should ask smashpop after his repair did it resulted in more dust collected, since he did send it to NCC

thanks mate, how long did it took to repair it? 1 hour?

lol, i guess it just all depends on luck
i'll need to emphasize to the dude who's gonna repair my phone about dust

anyways, was checking out the martin fields screen protector, notice the mock display doesn't have a hole for the proximity / light sensor. can anyone verified if it's just an illustration error?

btw, just gotten a skool as a temporary solution since my current SP is about to give way after accidentally washing it

you dude, care to share where you got the pouch from?

very interested here as the default nokia pouch do leave a little bit of a scratch mark (if you care to squint properly like me )

put in a few converted videos to watch when nothing to do and no pc to use
can't put in all of it as i've only less than 3GB now

p/s: gonna try GarminXT later, kekeke

damn, managed to install the garmin xt, but the button assignment for scroll down is just craps due to the shutter button having 2 point pressure and the settings did not have the 2 point pressure in mind........ARGH~!!! or maybe i should try install it on another S60 phone and see if i can change the settings from there

a question to all that managed to install and use ur garmin XT.
which map are you all using now? malfreemaps? or malsingmaps? which is better eh?

yup, i saw those lines as well. but i still have to make do with the current one though.....
still finding for a nice replacement
pfft

w00t, finally gotten a pouch for my phone
say bye bye to the plastic pouch!

p/s: but no doubt the plastic pouch is really nice in protecting the screen due to it's solidness

yo dude, sorry for the late reply, was out for most of the time (still CNY mood ). picture as attached below


mind showing what settings you are using? i suspect you are using h.264 for the mp4 format which is not supported on the phone
also, you converting from what format? mkv? or avi?

ahhh, no wonder
happy converting

hehe, i've tried that, not bad
i suggest you download the keymap that assigns Menu button as "scroll down" and camera button as "scroll up"
since you need scroll down more often than scroll up (and there's problem with the camera button as it's a 2 pressure point key, therefore it'll send 2 registered key to the Garmin XT when searching address which will screw it up)

the link is here : http://mytechnews.info/b/2009/01/updated-c...-mobile-xt.html
please use the keymap that is posted on 29th January
why i suggest this? because if you use camera as scroll down while you are searching for the address, it'll auto insert some unknown symbol into your address which caused it to be no address found
while if u use menu as scroll down (and u dun use camera as scroll up), you could just scroll down till the most bottom, and re-spell the same address, and it'll pop you back up to the first found list. please do note this is only for when scrolling down addresses that you just spell it out
if you are scrolling up and down at the main menu, this scenario will not occur happen

this is because the camera button is a 2-point pressure button which will register 2 keys (1st pressure point was meant for auto-focus, 2nd pressure point for snap picture). hence why you scroll down or up using camera button, it'll register weird symbols in your address (due to keymap did not map auto-focus function)



just now i encounter problem that the GarminXT did not initiate the GPS properly....odd. i guess it's just software error, i force GPS to activate via Nokia Maps, then run GarminXT again

use the link i provided above

if you really want to install mapsource, you have to extract it out via winzip / winrar
if you have multiple drives, extract it to the last drive
double-click main.msi
and it'll install the rest

you have to unlock it to fully utilise the AGPS in your phone
you'll have to buy the code from Garmin

oh, and malfreemaps is the best because it's updated more frequently compare to malsingmaps which you have to pay if you want to get the latest (and it's still not the most updated)

my only pointer to you is that if you convert to the mp4 format, please make sure is MPEG-4 and not h.264
bcoz both also carry the extension .mp4 which always misled people into thinking it's compatible

i doubt it's able to convert mkv format or rmvb
but i maybe wrong as i have not try yet
i'm using SUPER which suits my requirement perfectly fine (as i can extract audio only as well using that )
= p

v2.3 Gold is actually locked. and you have pay to get the unlock code from them if you are not contributor
unless you managed to rip it from some where else which i also managed to
however, i've compare the POI of MSM and MFM, MFM is definitely better IMO (that is for Selangor area )

welcome to the club!
can you check your pouch if it's hidden at there? it comes with the handphone stand as well
