:?: Oh please, after all this time has anyone out there managed to successfully format an Archos 504 160gb to NTFS?. I have recently bought a Nexus 7 android, and as it has no sd card slot, I want to be able to use my old Archos 504 as a stand alone external hard drive to play large files from to my...

Just tried MXPLayer. Same as the BSPlayer I'm afraid, but thanks for suggesting it.

I recently installed BSPlayer on my Android because it can handle more formats than the preinstalled video player,. I discovered however that certain formats such as mts run too slow and jerky to be watchable. Is there anything I can do to improve things, or is it simply a question of the cpu not be...

I recently downloaded the VLC Player (Betal version) on my Archos 70, but it doesn't seem to be able to find any of my video files, either on the internal storage or SD card. Am I doing something wrong? Incidentally I downloaded the Neon version, which I believe is the right version? Anyone else hav...

gte105u: WOW!! Thanks for that I now know exactly what to do. Thanks for taking the time and trouble to answer my questions. That must have taken you ages to type!

I use Appmonster Pro. I back mine up regularly, and then copy them over to the PC. It will back them up in a folder which the program reads and restores from. You can also select an option for it to back them up as a single apk. Really easy to use. I also use ADW, and backup my settings and desktop...

Open Appslib and download Android Manager Free.

Open it, go to tab Appmanager, select and backup to apk files, any or all the apps you want.

Note where on the Archos they're stored.

Copy to PC.

Thanks but Android Manager can no longer be found.

You know the feeling, youve spent ages downloading all the apps you want, and have your android running just how you want then BANG!, you need to do something drastic like a factory reset, and when you go to find your apps again, some of them have disappeared off the Market Place. My question is can...

I change my unlock password pattern on the spur of the moment to prevent my nephew to keep from playing on my tablet. Now I forgot it, is there anyway to unlock or reset it? Never used password pattern myself so cant help directly, but have you tried contacting Archos themselves by going on their w...

I find the idea of putting emulators and roms games on my Archos 70 very attractive, but havent got a clue where to begin!! I get that I need certain emulators from the Market Place, something like Astro file manager to download roms, to and a place to get the rom games, but what I would really love...

Thanks. That answers my question. I checked my film collection and realise that nearly all of them are 1080p. I tried one I found that was below 720p and it worked like a dream.

Since new firmware update 'bookmarked' films dont stay 'bookmarked'. When I bookmark a film, turn machine off then go to turn it back on later, the bookmark has gone, Very frustrating!

I had an Archos 504 previously, and because I wanted wifi went for the Archos 70. I havent looked back, I apsolutely love it! Decided against the 250gb version though as I heard their rather prone to developing problems later on, so decided on the 8gb and bought myself a 32gb SD card for it (plenty ...

I recently got Archos HDVideo Transfer from the Archos site, thinking I could use this to transfer some of my very large high quality film files over to my Archos 70 (for playing back on TV) without having to convert them. I understood it breaks the file down into several managable sized files that ...

Just a thought, but many people have confused the charger socket for the headphone one. Are you sure you plugged your headphones into the correct socket? the headphone one is mid way day on the left hand side, as opposed to the lower socket for the charger. Sorry if Ive stated the obviously, but I m...

Cant understand whats happening here. Are you using the stock video player that came with the device? should work fine with the stock video player, although of course there are others too numerous to mention available on Android Market place, although in my experience the stock player is by far the ...

Hey all Thanks for reading, I cannot charge my device, and worst of all:- Wouldnt let me register my device, so I cannot goto support, because you need a registered device to have support I also brought cinema plugin, and when clicking the download link, access denied. its an absolute joke. How ive...

The only thing I found the new firmware removed (but not really a big deal) was Appbrain Market, which I just reinstalled. Everything else, like Launcher etc. was running fine.
