I'm having similar issues . One video will play audio just fine but will freeze playing the video a few seconds in but continue with audio. The other video is just extremely stuttery. I don't have codec specifics or video specifics at the moment but it is an issue .
[HTC EVO 3D] kmd1970:
Grrr!

Funny enough, some of my videos start off blocky or have that green video effect for the first 2 seconds, but then play fine afterwards. I don't get any freezing during play. If a video starts to play, it continues fine for me. (Although, I haven't watched a full length movie as yet).

Did you get the 2 HTC updates? I did a check for HTC updates and factory reset my phone as soon as i got it. (lost the stupid hornet movie)

I am downloading more 720p video samples for testing. it may be the internal subs causing my issue, which would be strange.

(EDIT: xvid has the same problem, some video plays some don't)

1Ghz hummingbird puts all of these dual core ***** SOC's to shame. Long live Galaxy Tab 7 and Galaxy S! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Junon:
Wow, this app seems really nice. I was using the latest rockplayer because it had hardware decoding, but I noticed that it wouldn't play audio on any of my 720p mkvs. This app looks much more polished, and the video plays back every bit as smoothly, but it appears to have the same problem of not playing any audio along with the video. God, we're so close!!

Oh, I tried samples with DTS and some that were just 720p rips from broadcast tv, and neither had audio. For that reason, I didn't test enough of the video to verify your issues, sorry for the threadjack.
[HTC EVO 3D] kmd1970:
It wont play DTS audio and that is expected. Only my Archos 101 could play DTS audio out of the box, but Archos added that decoding feature.

Try encoding with Handbrake, the default setting will convert the DTS audio to MPEG AAC stereo.

So I tried more random MPEG4 AVC with DTS videos and I am very confused:

video #1 1280x720 had subs, didn't play

video #2 1920x800 no subs, video played

video #3 1280x534 no subs, didn't play

video #4 1280x720 no subs, video played
[HTC EVO 3D] kmd1970:
More tests:

I used mediainfo and compared codec data between several video files that played and some that didn't play and they all look the same. :mad:

I even used mkvmerge GUI to remove the audio and subtitles out of some of the videos just to see if that would work, but they still didn't play. :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] juami:
try dice player.

diceplayer can play 720p H.264 High + DTS +MKV flawlessly.

with gesture control ( brightness / volume ) + external subs + embedded subs
[Defy General] theherkman:
I walked my friend through rooting and helped him flash a custom rom. Then he decided he wanted CM7. So he booted into recovery and deleted cache, etc, flashed CM7. Now he is stuck at the Motoblur sign in page. He has tried resetting password and creating a new account, all to no avail. He has service and has even tried while connecting to wifi. When he boots into recovery he gets the stock recovery screen so he can't flash an unsigned ROM. I am okay with ADB and Fastboot, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Anything specific to the Defy, please go easy on me. I use an HTC Thunderbolt. =D
[Defy General] grannyrogers:
Cm7 does not have motoblur. So what sign in page you talking.?
[Defy General] theherkman:
Then we have a bigger problem because after flashing the cm7, we are stuck on the motoblur login/setup screen and he has only stock recovery...
[Defy General] salingpusa:
did you follow a guide in flashing cm7? what are the steps you did to arrive in this? you can skip motoblur set up, or you are refering to moto logo(bootloop)?
[Defy General] mlkz:
it's bull****..

after you install cm7, there is no motoblur setup at all,

even after you wipe your data and cache.

what are you talking about man?
[Defy General] theherkman:
No guide in flashing. I am a crack flasher for my phone, so I knew how to flash correctly. He had a zip that he claimed was CM7. The name matched. He put it on his phone and cleared the cache/factory reset/etc, before flashing. Flash seemed to work. Then he booted the phone up and he is stuck at the MOTOBLUR setup page. He has tried his hardest and CANNOT skip past it. He is not bootlooping, either. I am an advanced rooter, so feel free to get a bit technical if you know what is going on. I can't reach the phone through ADB/SDK because I can't turn on USB debugging. The recovery mode has reverted to stock, and as you know, the bootloader is locked down... Do you think a bad flash could have caused this? I'm really at a loss. Would the wisest course of action be to start the whole thing over again by putting the stock rom on the SD as update.zip and flashing stock?

And you... STFU.
[Defy General] marhensa:
first of all, you STFU!

thanks for being rude.

i personaly agree with mlkz, there's no motoblur setup.

and there is a effing page of FAQ installing CM7 for Defy.

and no whatsoever things related to motoblur setup!

my guess, your friend have a wrong step of installing CM7.

i know you are not defy user, so maybe it be little bit different.

defy cm7 only can be installed with something called bootmenu.

bootmenu consist of:

-special custom recovery, built for defy

-2nd Init boot, to trick motorola's locked bootloader

installing CM7 ONLY can be done inside that bootmenu,

can't be installed on other defy custom recovery, because there's a lot defy custom recovery out there.

remember, only on that bootmenu custom recovery, because there is 2nd init there.

i will sum up the too detailed faq for you,

since you are well known advanced rooters you should know these steps.

first thing first, just because now your friend stuck on motoblur setup.

create motoblur account then,

or simply reflash defy with full SBF which doesn't have motoblur, i prefer to do this.

basic knowledge of motorola android phone: SBF is official flashing package from motorola.

USE nordic froyo SBF for best result.

how to flash full sbf properly:

-turn off the phone,

-wipe data and cache first from stock recovery (MUST DO)

and this is how to go to stock recovery:

press and HOLD vol.down + power, until android guy with exclamation mark appears

press vol.up+vol.down, to get the menu appears, if this can't be done, tap lower right corner of screen.

-wipe data then wipe cache

-reboot phone now, BUT IMMEDIATELY press and HOLD vol.up for about 5 seconds, then release.

-now you are on bootloader mode

-connect usb to computer, make sure drivers and rsd lite installed. driver for 32 bit, driver for 64 bit.

-open rsd lite, flash nordic froyo sbf

after new fresh froyo without motoblur are set up,

-turn on usb debugging, get root with gingerbreak 1.2, reboot

-with usb debugging still turn on, then install bootmenu with bootmenu installer 1.7 (do not use 1.8), reboot

-you should ended up automaticaly on bootmenu now

-on that bootmenu, select custom recovery options, do wipe data & cache.

-then install cm7 zip.

-then install gapps

-select reboot system now, all done!

after this,

tell your friend to read the faq before installing cm7 again next time.

nicely done mate..
[Defy General] Gymjunkii:
I tried this up to the flash nordic froyo sbf...but when I reboot it still takes me to the same motoblur account. And i cant skip or cant even make a new account. Please help..
[Defy General] salingpusa:
Just hit settings, there is am option there.
[Defy General] farsight73:

[Defy General] MCFarmfresh:
When I get moto errors after entering my motoblur Id and pw I KNOW is correct I usually factory data reset and then it lets me log in correctly. I've had blur do that alot to me when I'm setting customers devices up for them for the first time.
[Defy General] K3n H1mur4:
Honestly? Impossible. SBF files replace ALL the phone's ROM files (and RSD Lite formats the ROM partition before doing so), so, if you flash a deblurred SBF (like the Nordic Froyo), it WILL NOT load a BLUR setup simply because the BLUR's setup files ARE NOT THERE.

So, unless, your friend's phone is a new Defy model with a fake ROM partition to piss off developers (besides the kidding, I won't be surprised if Motorola actually do this someday), there are two possibilities: 1) You did something wrong; or 2) You're lying.

Make sure that: 1) You wipe BOTH /data and /cache via stock recovery; and 2) You're flashing a deblurred SBF.

Here you can find ****loads of ROMs (complete index of Defy's SBFs), make sure you're getting a deblurred ROM, flash it in bootloader mode, using RSD Lite. There is no way to miss: in a deblurred ROM, there are no files who could lead to a BLUR setup.
[Defy General] Kiristiba:
hmm, if you flash cm7 the first thing you get is the Google Account Setup.

Perhaps you mixed something up and thought it is the motoblur one?

Hello all I'm new to the rooting and custom ROM community but I'm sure i have the hang of it by now...but my problem is that i am using CM7-RC1 and before this i used CM7 NIGHTLY # 60 and with both i have not been able to use or see a 4g network

As of right now all i have is 1x or E

i have searched the forums and have seen that there are some APN issues but, i have not found any solutions to my problem...

any input would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrharvey:
You dont ever see H? H is the symbol for HSPA+ or 4G which is basically the same (according to t-mobile). If you never see an H then that is odd. Was it a fresh install and did you do a full wipe of your last rom before flashing?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] avetny:
it's no "4G" icon....but it's 4G speed when you see "H"

I like to see 4G icon too :p;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
if your seeing 1X thats cdma lol probably simple, i had this problem, do this go to settings, then wireless networks, then mobile network, and then access point names and make sure u see it on tmobile not simple, if it is on simple tap on the dot next to tmobile. then after that back out go to phone hit *#*#4636#*#*, then u will see a menu, go to phone information and scroll down , make sure it is on wcdma preferred.... let me know how u make out buddy
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
When i installed this ROM i went through ROM manager and cleared cache, delvik cache, wiped data, and back up...so from my knowlege it was a clean install.

I also dont ever see 3g or H or H+ sadly, i want this problem fixed :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
my bad for the double post but, i have done all the steps here and even tried rebooting the phone and i still get 1x.

Just in case you are wondering before, with the original ROM, i did have 4g signal
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Aaron636r:
I have the "H".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
hmmm, do u have an older style simcard? in another words did u take it out of ....lets say a g1 and stick it in the g2x? or did it come with g2x new? cuz older sim cards are having problems with newer phones u would have to grab a new one from tmobile they would give u one for free if that was the case .....also did u skip the sign in process? (google acct) cuz for some reason u cant do that u have to sign in rite away... ok try this first hard reboot, hold vol up and power until it reboots and see what happens if a nogo then also try one more thing go back to settings , wireless networks, mobile networks, then network operators and hit search network like 5 times it might give u an error let it say it then try again then go back to access points and click on tmobile not the dot part on the actual word tmobile and then u should see the list hit your menu and see if theres a reset apn try that then save, also minor thing to try go into ur browser go to setting and delete cache , history, cookies, and form data.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
i got this sim card right out of the box "New" i also have tried resetting APNs and things but how would i go about restarting to see if google accounts is the problem? Factory reset?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
well first back all your apps up with titanium backup then do the factory reset honestly i would reinstall the rom then log rite in bro
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
Thnx bro...if the 1st way doesnt work right ill try reinstalling the ROM
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
Well...im stumped, nothing is working.

i have cleanly reinstalled the ROM and i am still only getting "Edge" and "1x"

-_- :cry:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Sorry I might be missing something. What is 1x? Isn't that related to CDMA networks?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
Yea I'm sure that's what it is but I can't seem to get it to change no matter what I do...I don't know whatelse to try
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
What I mean is that these are GSM phones, not CDMA (Sprint and Verizon). Is it possible you're roaming on another network, not T-Mobile? Maybe you don't even have 4G signal where you are.

Open your dialpad and dial *#*#4636#*#* then go to phone information. When your phone displays 1x what does it say is your current network, and then look down several lines and what does it say is the network type?

Anyone know does this phone support GSM1x??? It's a technology to allow roaming between GSM and CDMA networks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
Well under network type it says unknown although i am :

Network: T-Mobile

Roaming: Not Roaming

GSM Service: In Service

GPRS: Connected

Network Type: Unknown

I am also under WCDMA only
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Googling my fingers off here lol. The only references I can find to 1x have to do with CDMA networks (Sprint and Verizon which the G2X is not compatible with) and GSM1x which seems to have been experimented with about a decade ago as a possible evolution for GSM providers to utilize CDMA technologies or something like that.

Nowadays GSM carriers here (AT&T and T-Mobile) use UMTS/WCDMA for their 3G data whereas Verizon and Sprint use CDMA2000 (which includes CDMA 1x). The 2 technologies are not compatible but GSM1x was designed to be some sort of a bridge between GSM and CDMA2000.

Have you ever had 3G/4G access thru T-Mobile where you live?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] googleme1:
Yes with the original ROM i had 4g access 4g icon and everything
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DanDigity:
I haven't been able to find a fix either, it might be my sim, slight chance cause i had it in mytouch 3g slide brand new and just switched over to the g2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
Quick question Sarni84 had recommended doing a hard reboot that is holding volume up and power at the same time till you see the LG logo on the screen, did you do that? I am using Eaglesblood 1.08 which is based off cm7 and I did have the same problem a hard reboot fixes it everytime.

Try this forget about ROM manager and just use clockworkmod thats the first thing. Second thing redownload cm7 directly to the micro sd card not in the phone put it in a card reader or sd converter and directly into the computer I know that should not make a difference but thats what I did to get this working so I am recommending it.

Next boot into recovery and start fresh wipe everything and go to mounts and storage and select format/system then install from sd card make sure to install gapps. Then reboot phone and if you dont get it do the gapps sigh in with wifi if you can if not dot worry just skip it and hard reboot the phone as I said earlier and it should work. It takes a few minutes to get the reception but it works every time for me so give that a shot and let me know. I would definitly not bother with rom manager it is just CWM for dummies and I dont trust it. Good luck

[Wildfire General] bx19:
That link approaches the beta key errors too.

Ok, check ur serial number carefully. It will contain all the capital alphabetical letters and numeric digits. If u have adb or fastboot working, then u can have serial number without errors. Connect phone in debugging mode and enter command "adb devices". Or connect phone in fastboot mode and enter command "fastboot devices". It shows ur serial number in command prompt. Right click inside the command prompt and select "Select all". Then press CTRL + C to copy that. Then create a notepad to paste that. Now u can copy the device serial number from this notepad. Then go to alpharevX website and paste this serial number. U will get beta key then. Select that and right click and copy. Then open the alpharevX program and right click inside the command prompt and paste.

Will solve the key errors (assuming you are on windows PC).
[Wildfire General] peterpclarkson:
Thank you so much .

How long till the tool haz dun its thing
[Wildfire General] bx19:
Mine got done within 30sec after entering the beta key. That is the best time I think, under 30sec. Used Ubuntu live CD. Under Linux, drivers not needed (since they are inbuilt) and gives maximum compatibility.

Anyhow it shouldn't take more than 10min I think.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotelmrrsn:
I'm new to the TB but I've been on Android since the original droid release. On my moto devices all i had to do was set the screen to stay awake when charging. I have set that on my TB but after a few seconds the screen dramatically dims, technically it stays awake yes, but is there a way to prevent it from dimming when it's charging or docked? Thanks in advance for your help.:)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macdanif:
It would really depend on what Mod you are running. If you are running stock there should be a setting in display for screen dimming. If you are running a custom rom each has it's own settings for different things. Cyanogen has it turned off by default but you can turn it on via the settings to allow the screen to dim.

Try unmounting and mounting your sd card within android, that´s what´s happening anyway during a reboot, due to that you can see the files the second time around.

I have heard of an app, something like dual mount or so (i´m really not sure, sorry), try using that, maybe in that case the file system updates right away and not only after the next reboot.

[Acer Iconia A500] rshetye:
Executive summary:

1. You need to get root (super user) access on 3.0.1

GingerBreak 1.2 http://androidflip.com/how-to-root-acer-iconia-a500-with-gingerbreak-v-120/

2. Install "Root Checker" from the Android Market (run it to verify that you do have root access). (All such Android Market apps can be installed onto your device via your PC. Visit website, select install, select device, click ok, check connected device)

3. Install "Busybox by Stericson" from the Android Market and then invoke the app to install busybox.

4. Install "Acer Recovery Installer" from the Android Market and then invoke the app to install a CWM Recovery image (don't use the stock recovery image)

5. Do a backup of your current System Image (because your country-specific factory ROM may not be available on the Internet in case you decide to revert)

Advice from Achristocat: use ClockWorkMod's (a.k.a CWM) backup function (CWM itself is a seperate entity as compared with ClockWorkMod Recovery)

Alternative Advice from rquinn19: Do a nandroid backup (TBD - I am not familiar with this)

6. Backup current android apps (TitaniumBackup -> "Backup all user apps + system data", or alternatively use Astro file manager's tool)

Advice from Euclid's Brother: use "Titanium Backup" which saves the data with it (ie. you don't lose your custom app settings or even your progress in Angry Birds, etc).

You can use the Internal SD card (/mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup or /mnt/sdcard/backups) to store/restore backups as long as you don't do any partitioning.

7. Pick a ROM image (I chose Virtuous Galaxy, there's Dexter's Iconia Px, Virtuous Picasso, Taboonay, HoneyVillain etc). Boot into Recovery image to flash the System image - "Booting into recovery" means to power up with VolDown + Power Buttons pressed (VolDown is the volume button closest to the power button)

Virtuous Picasso v1.0.8 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1129826

WATCH THE VIDEO BEFORE YOU PROCEED

Advice from FloatingFatMan: You cannot flash ROM from internal memory. You can use external SD or a USB stick

8. Restore android apps: TitaniumBackup -> "Restore missing apps with data" and "Restore all system data", or Astro file manager's tool

If your System image is already rooted, along with CWM Recovery in place, and you just want to try a new ROM, you only need steps 6, 7, 8.

Extras:

1. Install "Drive Mount" from the Android market for accessing NTFS USB hard disks

2. Install "LCDDensity for Root" from the Android market for changing LCD density. Default = 160. Lower value (e.g. 120) implies smaller widgets
[Acer Iconia A500] bparvin:
This should be useful for the new users or even experienced users that are new to this device.
