Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2014 20:35:30 +0100 Thanx, and that is interesting rockbox as an app? Yes i use a Motorola Devy plus, but it is too heavy/and cumbersome for outdoor activities... but if rockbox use a music player that is more stable than the Motorola one, which always crashes... that might be usful for travelling. as for bluetooth headphones I can recommend "Soundsters sport" (momentarily not available, but should be again soon). a brilliant set I have been using now for a few weeks, that links beutifully both as a hands free, head set with mic, to the phone and the music with very good features........

Many times it only seemed to be a display problem = rockbox running but impossible to use with tiny unreadable screen. Hopefully more screen resolution being available, rockbox will run on more phones. > > Rockbox as an app is not stable but still very usable. My advice is to create a list of shortcuts including AT LEAST "SHUTDOWN" to make sure you can easily and definitely shut the app when you don't use it and want to save battery life > > As for bluetooth earphone bear in mind some "phone call/hands free" bluetooth may not work with a music app (not only rockbox, any app including android native media app). I have this problem with my Samsung SBH650, shame as it would allow me to connect many of my "cable" earphones. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > Unsubscribe: http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rockbox > FAQ: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GeneralFAQ > Etiquette: http://www.rockbox.org/mail/etiquette.html > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > Unsubscribe: http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rockbox > FAQ: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GeneralFAQ > Etiquette: http://www.rockbox.org/mail/etiquette.html ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rockbox FAQ: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GeneralFAQ Etiquette: http://www.rockbox.org/mail/etiquette.html Received on 2014-01-26 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
