[LG Optimus 2x] tExl:
I tested some h264 formats on the LG2x. Baseline profile works fine for 1080p video, I tried that up to 10mbit/s. Main profile works, but is too slow on 1080p and I think 720p also. It might work with SD resolutions, but I didn't test this. High profile simply isn't even recognized by the LG media player. I did try all profile levels, it ate all of them. Perhaps someone else can figure out the maximum bitrate the device will play smoothly, and what the "maximum" resolution for the main profile is (and at what bitrate).

So if you're putting h264 HD material on there, put it in an mp4 container with AAC audio, and use the baseline profile. 10mbit/s worked fine for the 1080p source I tested with (Looney Tunes Short Fur of Flying).
[LG Optimus 2x] fen_nyc:
Hrms, can an app do this? Like for instance, on a desktop/laptop, Window's default player is not the greatest- however, here comes VLC player & it damn plays anything. My point is, can there be a App out there in our future that does this too for Android?
[LG Optimus 2x] Walvater:
An app on Android can not use the hardware acceleration! On a computer however, a program (like vlc) is able to use your full power!

Hi all

Read this guide "How to make videos to Optimus 2x using Handbrake"

http://www.knowyourcell.com/lg/lg-optimus-2x/optimus-2x-guides/697986/how_to_convert_videos_and_transfer_them_to_the_lg_optimus_2x.html
[LG Optimus 2x] element332:
Hi.. THX that is great help.. Very interesting.... .

Do you think that we can expect some 3rd party video player using hardware acceleration of Tegra 2 in Market soon.? Playing .mkv and other HD formats.? Or it is not possible.?
[LG Optimus 2x] Mittaa:
I do not know, but if Tegra 2 will be used in other phones than Optimus 2x ... drivers might be upgraded to support more video types.
[LG Optimus 2x] fen_nyc:
RAWrrrRRR!! WHY?? Okay, I kinda get it thanks...:D
[LG Optimus 2x] Mittaa:
Its a fact that HW acceleration can only be used when/if Nvidia Tegra 2 drivers supports it.

But any app can play any format if it have the right SW decoder (using CPU).

Optimus 2x should be fast enough to play quality video (DVD resolution 720×576) using sole SW decoders :)

Isn´t Full HD on a mobilephone a total overkill and kind of waste?

If I want to se a movie on my Full HD Flatscreen I use my Media Center or BluRay player :)
[LG Optimus 2x] gintas111:
im not sure what you guys looking for but all movies i downloded from internet just fly :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Mittaa:
What kind of movies :)

YouTube videos ?
[LG Optimus 2x] element332:
Hi Mittaa,

how does it work with big files..? You can only put files up to 4 Gb on the SD card can't you..? So there is not enough room for 1080p movies..???
[LG Optimus 2x] Mittaa:
As I said ... "Isn´t Full HD on a mobilephone a total overkill and kind of waste?"

FAT32 SD card can't handle files > 2GB

Maby you could split files and maby Android supports filessystems other than FAT16 and FAT32 ... I don't know :)
[LG Optimus 2x] element332:
I think it is not a overkill. I don't have any way of getting HD content on my TV (BlueRay, Playstation, etc) so i can sure use this.

Or when I travel I can just plug my phone to the TV in the hotel room and watch the movie.
[LG Optimus 2x] HerrKuk:
Overkill? Whats wrong with that?
[LG Optimus 2x] fen_nyc:
I agree. This phone has the specs to run it, & space is up to the owner to use. I remember a headline from Engadget stating that the "the 2X has a crazy amount of codecs for video media" when it's released in S. Korea. .mkv is probably the most popular container for HD videos- disappointing the 2X does not support this...:mad:
[LG Optimus 2x] Mittaa:
How is it possible to play 1080X1920 on a 480x800 screen?

It might be possible to use 1080X1920 when using HDMI mirror, but then how much space do you have on your phone? And do you want to split files > 2GB?

OK ... if you use hard compression file size drops ... but then quality also drops to something that you can compare with DVD resolution!

What I ment was that I personally prefare a lower resolution in a good quality :)

DVD resolution 720×576 ajusted to my phone (MPEG4) take up about 1-2GB and I use to have around 6-8 good movies on my 16GB SD card.

I too hope that more formats will be supported ... at the moment its just not good enough ...
[LG Optimus 2x] libehv:
optimus 2x supports baseline profile 4.1

basically it means that most of the 720p media files you'll find in the internet won't play smoothly because they are encoded according to high profile or even have been encoded after specifically more quality wise settings

if you need to encode for 2x you basically need software such as handbrake, set on the iphone and ipod touch profile on the right and change the resolution to your preference up to 1920 width and then set the bitrate so that the maximum won't go over 20Mbit

basically avg 15 would be fine though because of the fat32 limitations 4 gigabytes, it would be wise to calculate the bitrate according to the maximum file size

i do not know if Android supports ExtFat, which supports much higher filesizes, but because of the baseline profile limitations it doesn't really make any real difference between 1080p 15kbit/s or 5kbit/s video stream nor does those additional settings in Handbrake software

there is no "almost lossless" settings for optimus 2x, only thing matters is the speed for reencoding the bloody internet :(

One year later, they release a new phone with a GPS that s**ks again...

Well, I'll be really waiting for guinea pigs to jump on the i9100 before moving....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] xchasa:
My i9000 is awesome for GPS. Better than my iPhone 3g and my 2.3 nexus one.. I sold my navman. Different region's I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] dakost:
Can't say I am satisfied with the i9000 gps, my old glofish 500 beats it hands down but with a couple of tweaks the i9000 gps works ok.

The i9003 battery is 1650 instead of 1500 and it should also fit in the i9000.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] stuclark:
The i9003 is the SAME PHONE as the i9000, just with different screen technology. Therefore, its perfectly reasonable to expect the GPS to function in EXACTLY THE SAME WAY.

If yours sucks, then that's the perception you'll have of the i9003. Personally I don't think it's that bad, but it's not as good as the i8900; which goes to show that Samsung *DO* know how to do GPS; they just got the antenna wrong in the i900x range.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Valeo:
Totally agree with this. Although since loading JV1 onto my SGS I'm of a somewhat different opinion - 3 days in and my GPS is working "great" and I'm getting an accuracy of between 8-16 feet every time, something which I never had with <= JPY. Makes you wonder why it's so hit and miss...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gothfebrio:
no its not just the screen. different gpu(sgx530 instead of sgx540), different chipset(OMAP instead of hummingbird). And its thicker.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Blaaargh:
Maybe you should do a little research before posting. Like someone has already pointed out, the hardware is quite different.

In any case I bought a GT-9003 last week and I havent faced any GPS issues like you mention, whether under open skies or inside a building.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Auzy:
Have you actually used it in the past week?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jonny_ftm:
My i9000 GPS is ok, unless you drive in areas with high density roads. The issue is with accuracy, really uneven and sometimes just not enough to avoid jumping through roads while driving.

Fix in steady mode, no driving is a very bad way to test the GPS.

Actually, when driving in a city with many close roads, I pare it with my external Bluetooth GPS. Accuracy is unbeatable (3-16 ft all the time) and I spare my battery

PS: googoo Bluetooth GPS v0.5.9a works like a charm, no crash with JS7 (unlike Bluetooth GPS Provider v1.2.6 which crashes in froyo)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] herbert1:
Bluetooth GPS doesn't work anymore in some new kernels from Samsung :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kelvs:
based on the specs... it's just a crappier version of the i9000. seems like what ended up with excess materials not used by i9000.

why the hell would it have better GPS then ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jonny_ftm:
JS7 is a very new kernel. I don't expect the soft not working on JS8 as no major differences

However, "Bluetooth GPS Provider" is another soft and yes, it doesn't work anymore.

On the other hand, Bluetooth GPS from googoo works
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] snapper.fishes:
Would flashing a custom kernel help?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ryouza:
is thiccker because of the bigger battery... the worst of this phone is lack of custom rom or kernel mod, is just a simple samsung phone with stock options... and no more. but performance is good and the screen is not bad.. i've got it couple of days,and i'm well impressed.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] nipunj:
GPS not working on my i9003 also :(. Even tried GPS aids,GpsFix, GPS Status and FasterFix apps also for GPS but of no use. Any Idea how to get it working. Mine is an India version

FROYO.DDKB2

Baseband version I9003DDKA5

Firmware version 2.2.1

Please help me how to go about it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] fooman123:
My GPS on i9005 was terrible using Arabic JPKB1 Firmware.

Installing European XXKB3 Firmware solved the GPS issues. GPS now works great -- A Cold fix in under a minute and hot fixes in few seconds. Accuracy is very good.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thaikinh:
Mine is i9000 manufactured in October 2010. I bought it as a secondhand one. For the first two months I was crazy with the GPS and I really wanted to sell it to buy another one (like Desire Z or Droid 2 Global). The reason is it was really hard to get fixed, If I were lucky, sometimes 2 minutes with maximum 3-4 satellites, but most of the times I had to give up after 5 mins without any locks.

But after I upgraded to the latest 2.3.3 European ROM AND installed GPSfix, now it's just easy for me to get fixed under 20s outside with at least 6 satellites, sometimes 9 or 10. Once the satellites get locked, if you restart the GPS even after a while, it takes only 5-10s to get them locked again. It works like a charm with all Navigation apps, such as the buit-in Nav, Google maps or Osmand.

The accuracy is normally 30m, but sometimes it goes up to 10m. I've been testing for 2 weeks and never had a problem since then.

I don't know what fixed the problems, the Gingerbread or the GPSfix, but now I don't dare to try anything, even uninstalling the GPSfix.

It's quite funny that I live in Vietnam and I flashed the European ROM via ODIN, and now my GPS is working flawlessly.

PS: my firmware is XXJVO

yeah its great we got nodo very early and are now the first to get the official nodo

my bet the only thing changed is the version number. this is now the real final.

now let me ask this question.. a de-branded phone means you can use any carrier right? the so called "open market phone" or open-line one right?

because mine is like that.. I got it from the HTC contest.. i just don't understand why I still don't have the update here in the Philippines... :(
[7 Mozart General] Infuriated-Germ:
Hi eqzgkxokwa, can I ask what ROM version you were previously on (if you know) and also did you receive your update from 7004, 7008 or 7389 ?
[7 Mozart General] eqzgkxokwa:
Hey,

I'm not sure what ROM I'm on. What has actually happened, is I got alerted of an update, but it apparently can't update while syncing. I had the update wizard come and go, and I haven't heard anything more. I've restarted my phone, constantly checked for updates, and nothing. I'll see what happens tomorrow. I'm currently on 7008.

I got the update after debranding my UK orange device by flashing the europe rom leaked by football.

If I did a rom, would I lose all my data and settings too? I would be tempted, because this is getting ridiculous.

FYI, Malaysia's HD7 open market user already updated with 7390 build.

There is also news that Maxis (One of the Malaysia's Carrier) bundled HD7 can get the 7390 update by applying the registry hack to remove carrier.

While 7 Mozart open market user still on the wait...(at least for me)

Good news is,

there is someone say that his 7 mozart already updated to 7390,

Refer Here
[7 Mozart General] Infuriated-Germ:
Looking at the evidence so far...

People who have Original Unbranded Mozarts and those who have used the "unbranding" reg hack are only able to receive 7008 build update and nothing more.

Anyone who has changed their ROM from a carrier branded 7004/7008 build to the unbranded 7389 build has received the 7390 Official NoDo build.

It appears the update servers do not want to update Unbranded 7008 Mozarts (Orginal unbranded or those which were Unbranded by flashing). So it appears the 7389 unbranded build must have something in the reg that allows the update to be triggered (im only speculating).

Changing Zune location to those who have reported success doesn't have any effect either.
[7 Mozart General] matrixcs:
Yes Infuriated-Germ I agree with you.. or maybe MS should at least check their update servers so they can fix this thing.
[7 Mozart General] eqzgkxokwa:
I did the proper debranding method, on 7008, no update. Do you think I should flash to 7389?
[7 Mozart General] Infuriated-Germ:
Right ... I tried an unbranded 7389 build yesterday and it triggered the update.

My guess is the update servers are probably seeing 7389 build as "Not Up to date" and (obviously cannot go back to 7008) therefore triggering the update to the latest "stable" known build in the catelogue.

I'm also guessing the reason the 7008 isn't triggering the update yet because it's marked as "latest release" in the catelogue for your region/IP etc. It's the only thing that makes sense and fits the observations currently.

Updating a branded UK device

Hi all

I am right now in the process of updating an Orange UK branded device via Zune. I did not receive any notification on my phone and had to manually check for the update in the Zune software.

I did install the unofficial 7389 update via a ROM flash (couldn't resist!!!) but stuck with an Orange UK branded ROM.

So, I am updating from a branded 7389 ROM to a branded (I hope!) 7390 ROM.

Cheers

I'm probably revealing my ignorance regarding what a ROM is but do any of the leaked ROMs come with the complete Orange Maps? My phone came with an Orange Maps icon - I would normally just download the full version but can't do so as I'm connected to the US marketplace, not the UK.

For what its worth, he said feel free to post the one clicks, just give credit. I dont honestly care however, copy, paste, seemed simple enough. Was no where near as hard as the original root method for the DInc.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ShanDestromp:
The only legitimate reason I could buy about not wanting a one click released, is if SOMEHOW it would make our phones vulnerable to some sort if attack.

As background, I've ben using custom roms since my old g1 was new and JesusFreke was just getting started and I dont ever recall ANY dev with holding something that would make the users lives easier. In recent history I've done a ton of flashing roms with both mine and my wifes old vibrants and the only time I used adb was if I wanted to push a file to the phone without mounting it on my computer.

PERSONALLY, this whole mess sounds of ego and elitism. I am incredibly greatful to the devs who have paved the way, but fearful of what they are trying to do. No one should have the right to prevent another from releasing something, it's in gross violation of the gpl. If a dev wants to code something under a different license, fine. However it needs to be clearly annotated as such, and devoid of any gpl work itself. In other words, it basically can't contain anything related to android unless it was developed 100% blind through an emulator.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
Can't step on my toes, I got stealtoe boots...

I want a chance to review any one clicks before release. I REALLY want new users to understand what they are doing BEFORE they try one clicking.

I already stopped the release (until fixed) of one 1click root that would of been REALLY bad for the community and anyone using it.

Ppl need to stop blaming me for this crud.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
Are you a troll or do you really believe all that crock you just posted?

The issue with one clicks was an increased risk of bricking with this method. And where does the GPL even come in here at, any GPL code we used as released before the root was even up.?

I stopped a one click from being released today that not only left your phone vulnerable to an attack, but also left you with an outdated, faulty radio and other faulty firmware.

Either you are a troll, have a personal issue with me, or have a seriously problem.
