Sorry if this has already been asked (i did look but found nothing). Can i flash this straight if im on Cherryblur at the moment?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] daywalker04:
Of course you are correct. But I didn't know anything about people bricking their phones until after the fact - even experienced devs brick their phones. First post edited with warning.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cnewsgrp:
Thanks

Thanks for adding the warning in first post. I totally understand your viewpoint. And really appreciate the SBF.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Kirkaiya:
Hi daywalker -

Apologies in advance if the following is a stupid question - I've read thru all the posts in this thread, and I'm still not absolutely sure.

I just got an Atrix (sim-unlocked), after I foolishly broke the camera on my Nexus One (stupid clumsiness, argh!). So I'm not used to dealing with locked bootloaders, or baked-in crap like MotoBlur.

Is the ROM you posted the same as the OTA 2.3.4 ROM from Motorola? That is, does it have the same MotoBlur apps and MotoBlur control over accounts, etc? It sounds like the answer is probably "yes", even if I'm hoping it's "no" (I'd really like to get the vanilla gingerbread UI/experience I had on my Nexus One, which was 2.3.4 also).

Thanks in advance, and sorry if the answer is obvious, and I just didn't "get it".
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SGTShark:
Can someone confirm that this can be used to reflash 4.5.91 on an OTA 4.5.91 locked bootloader ATRIX? Just in case something gets broken in the process of trying to do the simple things like webtop hack, HDMI, deodex and such. I'm notorious for messing up simple instructions? Lose or delete things regularly.lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] darthmalus:
so im already running 2.3.4 - 4.5.91 so if i mess something up or make a noob mistake i cant use this file to sbf my phone ??? the phone was already running this when i got it new from at&t.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Just flash the 2.3.4 fruitcake, if you already unlocked your bootloader... less risky.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjayflo:
^^^this is probably my answer above to my question , but ill ask anyways. I flashed a rom without backing up my stock settings. Is it safe to sbf 2.3.4+pudding+root to get back to stock....or just fruitcake?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Fruitcake... you'll still be on unlocked bootloader (and root??), but other than that, you're stock.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] darthmalus:
i did not unlock my boot loader, when i got my atrix brand new from the at&t store it was already running GB 4.5.91
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Then your answer is yes, use this sbf. Do not flash a earlier sbf file version though, less you brick your phone.

A couple days ago I came home to find the tab powered off. This even though I left it on from the night before. When it booted it still had 34% battery.

Last night I left it charging and when I came home from work today it was powered off again! Even though it was plugged in.

Also, the wi-fi locked up completely twice the first day I used it.

Should I exchange it for a new one or does everyone experience these problems? I'm about 7 days in my BestBuy return period. I might return anyway because it's $100 cheaper at Staples with that coupon in another thread.

[General Questions and Answers] Oscar Alaturka:
Hello,

I've tried emergency mode, and then updating for LG Fathom. After the phone goes into "Downloading... Do not unplug!" mode, the update begins but fails at the % 94. It does not complete the updating process and does not reset. I replaced the battery but it still says "Downloading... Do not unplug!" I've tried to update again but the LGMobile Support Tool actually detects it as "Model: VS750, Version: VS750ZV7" and the text box says "The Cell phone is the latest version already. So you don't need to update." but it still says "Downloading... Do not unplug!"

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I've tried emergency mode, and then updating for LG Fathom

Hi,Have you got the soltuion, if so, please let me know.
[General Questions and Answers] WeAreNotAlone:
Can you expand on your question?

Please explain what you are doing, and at what point you are running into problems.

I don't have time to do a walkthru and I'm on another computer that contains the files and it's VERY late, but the below should get you off to a start:

Are you running the official LG updater LGMobileUpdate.exe? (it sucks)

Did you download the flash file to your hard drive, or are you relying upon the (crappy LGMobileUpdate.exe) official update program that goes online for the flash file? and usually crashes right at the end?

Did you remove the SD card?

Battery fully charged?

Configured USB mode /PC sync mode correctly?

Using the cable that came with the phone?

Have you installed the USB drivers?

IIRC I think these are the ones - Google to find:

LGUSBModemDriver_Eng_WHQL_Ver_4.9.4_All.exe

CRC32: 17CFF6EE

MD5: 18710A96C1B08C9CD91872B746F8A647

SHA-1: C4B85224A36CD317B3FF6BF331E0431C82D1B939

Are you using LG-Utils-0.4.2.zip -from-bhast02_xda-Developers

CRC32: C24F872B

MD5: 97DEDB4437DEBC80CF92B90B93DED0E3

SHA-1: 53AEEBB3E6E2B03A3B45D557A62DF2EE39D44482

Did you put the "Official" LG updater and rom flash file in the same directory as the files you extracted from LG-Utils-0.4.2.zip?

Did you configure the exe KP500 to run in SP2 mode, full admin rights?

Which OS are you running? and at what SP level?

Running as Admin?

Answered you on Howard Forums- Please follow-up /leave feedback.

RE: LG Fathom VS750 Emergency Download Mode exit

Depress the RESET button located near the micro usb port.

FYI: Run the update tool in XP SP2 compatibility mode, remove SD from slot before flash, make sure battery is fully charged... and use LG-Utils-0.4.2 to point the updater to local file on hard drive for best results. (Put LGMobileUpdate.exe, B2CAppSetup.exe in same folder you extracted LG-Utils-0.4.2 to.)

VS750 USB drivers (I think): LGUSBModemDriver_Eng_WHQL_Ver_4.9.4_All.exe

PS: VS750ZV5_06.SV5_06.P58006.R5.cab with the addition of SPB SHELL 3.5.5 or some other launcher /shell gives you more customization options.

Far more than V7 does (V7 appears to be running a OEM version of SPB Shell)

V7 = Causes the Mute incoming call ringer app to crash. When the phone is ringing if the vol up/down key is depressed it crashes. Ringer does not mute....

[General Questions and Answers] subircozy:
I can see many people got stuck in "Downloading... Do not unplug!" mode on LG fathom VS750,

while updating or after an update is over,, and i am one of them now.

My vs750 was unstable so tried updating it to v7 through KP500 LG Utilis - 0.4.2-N

but end of update,, phone got hung didnt reboot n since then it got stuck in emergency mode forever.

basically the phone doesnt reboot to windows leaving the "Downloading... Do not unplug" screen

tried almost everything even removed the phones main hardware board CMOS cell to clear RAM ROM,, but no luck!

Disabled modem in device manager then re-flashed various BIN files in emergency mode using LGNPST 1.2 Lab version,, flashing done 100% but phone never reboots to windows,, real strange piece of ****!

HTCs are much more stable and reluctant from such unwanted disasters when someone is least expecting them.

if any one has tried anything different or got a fix from LG customer care,, please share.

Thnx in advance!

Personally, I did not get to upgrade to gingerbread due to the S/W screen. I wanted to see if it's worth getting the update when I get a new G2x this Monday. For those of you who did, what do you like better? The custom ROM's or the LG update.

If anyone wants to help me with the S/W issue. I was on a non rooted phone with stock recovery. I have tried the Kdz thing, but it always freezes up when I launch it with the phone plugged in. I have tried to start it with the phone not plugged in and it launches good, but doesn't recognize my phone.

Thanks to anyone who replies on either question. :D

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Invisman:
Can someone check the playback of the following video clips, using Diceplayer? These clips are taken from this thread here. This is what the OP of that thread says:

This is a survey to see how well current tablets can play 720p and 1080p H.264 movies. Attached below are 6 sample clips from Avatar, each is of the same scene, encoded in H.264 high/main/baseline profile and 720p/1080p resolution. Please try all clips.

I've selected Avatar since it is full-frame and requires more bits than a normal wide-screen movie. This particular sequence is very high action, and serves as a worst-case test. (For playback, please minimize system load by closing down other running apps.)

http://mediafire.com/?15ec78k8s57db1z 1280 high MP4

http://mediafire.com/?pylvj2fa9kzynh2 1280 main MP4

http://mediafire.com/?9uk4z06ig651x3u 1280 baseline MP4

http://mediafire.com/?ge1nwgd5003s3ak 1920 high MP4

http://mediafire.com/?7yqwhma8yhrhusq 1920 baseline MP4
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] bd85:
The above video 1280 high profile play just fine with stock player. Android 3.1 handle highprofile mp4 with the right spec.

The 1920 highprofile freeze my tab and only gets audio. And when do people want to play 1080p? Better to use 720p with good quality and bitrate.

The thing that's stand out with diceplayer is that you can play .mkv.

It Evan plays videos with dts.

If you want use to test and see different between diceplayer and stock you should upload videos that don't run on stock player

Have tried some highprofile mkv and its almost ok, for the most time it runs smoothly, but sometimes the picture hangs,studder.

It's almost there but it don't reach all the way, hopes that we will see updates so the playback gets better.

Also think that mp4 baseline and other video plays smoother in movie's when there is alot of movement and panning.

Got Diceplayer playing back a 720p .MKV file (not sure if it was high profile or not) - not buttery smooth but better than anything else I've seen so far on HC3.1

Got a couple of questions, I was wondering if anyone can answer...

1) Diceplayer claims to offer hardware accelerated video decoding - is this for .MKVs?

2) Is that hardware acceleratation for Tegra 2

3) IF so, how are they managing it where so many others have failed? (Wasn't the core problem with offering HW acceleration for .MKVs down to lack of support from the nVidia side of things?)

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] juami:
1) Diceplayer claims to offer hardware accelerated video decoding - is this for .MKVs?

=> Yes. it use hw accelerator at any format with MPEG-4/H.264

you can play MOV / AVI files with HW accel.

2) Is that hardware acceleratation for Tegra 2

=> YES.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] krips2003:
It plays 720p high profile mkv without any issues. With 1080p, The video stops playing, but the audio still works for some, but wont for most of the 1080p videos either mkv or mp4. I think this might be achieved in the future. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jeandujardin01:
720p playback is great !

1080p just freeze the tab but hey not even my Galaxy S II cant handle Full HD :p besides the resolution is useless for now anyway
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Itaintrite:
I don't think it (Galaxy Tab/Tegra2) can handle level 4.1 or higher. But plays the rest better than anything else I've tried.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Awesome.. which leads me to question 3.. *How* are they managing to implement HW acceleration where the other software vendors have failed? e.g. the reliance on core NVidia software library support (or lack of it apparently) ??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] juami:
see my interview.

http://blog.clove.co.uk/2011/07/20/focus-on-apps-dice-player/
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Great interview, although it doesn't go into any more detail how the Diceplayer devs have been able to do HW acceleration where the others (e.g. Moboplayer, Rockplayer etc) haven't..

I realise there may be some "trade secrets" so perhaps the devs don't want to give too much away, but any more info on how they managed this would be most welcome - and I think give potential buyers much more confidence... I'm sure if it was

easy, many others would have done it.. but clearly Diceplayer seems to be the only app on the market right now that does, so there must be something special going on?

As I said above, wasn't the real problem that there isn't HW Accel and support across more formats/containers etc. due to the fact NVidia themselves haven't implemented or provided the right libraries or something??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] styxx:
This app is a perfect start. It plays 720p mkvs nicely. I tried avis and it did not play the files (no video no sound). But I am sure with time this app will also get better and if the Honeycomb optimised version comes out that also plays avis I might actually buy it.

So the only thing remaining is a way to get around the file size limitation of the P7510. 720p mkvs are often larger than 4 gb... let me know if anyone has a solution for this please (and don't start the sentence about converting videos please -.-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Vlad_z:
I've tried Dice player and it can play less formats then my rockplayer. As an example : if sound is in

mp3 format - diceplayer just hangs.

As I can see dice player first trying HW mode then fall down to software mode. So, there are still no magic player for android.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] palur:
I have f ound QQ player is excellent and it played many videos, which other players could not. try and see.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Vlad_z:
Bottom line... there are only that much of hardware decoders format support as nvidia will provide... I don't believe (and please prove me wrong) that someone other then nvidia develops native tegra 2 GPU chip code... All players, if it not supported by HW decoders will use kind of GPL type of libs doing software decoding. Sure it will play most of formats but is limited by ARM 2xcore 1Ghz CPU performance. Which is not enough for 720p high profile and up...

I've tested lots of android video players and non of them is a match for a standard PC player.

How did you explain Nexus-1/S can play 720p H.264 High Profile MKVs ( + DTS/Flac Audio).

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] meeekael:
Any way to hide the status bar in the same way that the default player does?

It's pretty impressive. Was quite disheartened when rockplayer failed miserably but this is a great alternative.

Now for the typing lag haha.

Interesting, its not streaming any avi's

More testing, it's quite hit and miss for me with streaming x.264. Will play for a while going great then freeze and either catch up or force close. Could be my wireless though, have had problems in the past.

Sweet, have tried streaming a big 720p file from my computer, girlfriends computer, and directly from the router (should have started there lol) with no success. Unless my router is **** (it shouldn't be, it's only 2 months old) this isn't quite up to scratch for streaming 720-1080 yet. File starts, I get sound then it force closes.

Confirmed that it is on the GTabs end as I can stream from router to PC no worries.

Early days yet I suppose, it is definitely a great start.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Plague_CZ:
"Changed the rule", you sound like a salesman. I don't think there is a way since the chip does not support opening the MKV container. And I don't see an API for streaming data into the decoder. So I'm still convinced that diceplayer does SW decoding.

That said, I tested the trial few minutes ago and it DOES play smoothly, so the SW decoding could be done via CPU and GPU which would explain everything (like CUDA-accelerated games or stuff).

I tested 720p test file and they do work nicely, so I guess I'm buing. I'll test full movies and report back here.

Edit: So I tested movies <4GB and they work too!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] juami:

Diceplayer use HW video decoder in AP(Tegra2/Samsung S5PC110/111,Exynos/TI OMAP/Qualcomm chips).

After testing Diceplayer a bit, I've found that Vplayer actually plays my 720p mkvs better and with less stuttering than Diceplayer does. Surprising since I didn't think Vplayer had any hardware acceleration... But maybe I'm wrong.

Plus, Vplayer seems to play more formats so I guess I'll be sticking with it for the time being. Shame it's too late to get a refund for Diceplayer.

Everyone should just STOP encoding with MKV. There is absolutely no reason to be spreading files wrapped in MKV containers around. Enough is enough.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] sassafras_:
That's stupid. .MKV is a much more versatile format than any thing else than can carry h.264 content. Not only that, but if WebM makes it (Google has a strong hand in that, so my money is that it's here to stay) then .mkv certainly isn't going anywhere.

As to the people who don't think this can play back using hardware acceleration, you're wrong. I've dug into this a little bit and found that it contains it's own ffmpeg libraries the container, and proprietary ones for the OMX decoder. In other words, it uses the same technology to open the .mkv container as RockPlayer, Moboplayer, etc but instead passes the video stream to the OMX decoder for GPU decoding that the other players can't. In other words, it bypasses the built in Android libraries (which the other players rely on for hardware decoding) and goes straight to the source to decode the raw video stream.

If it doesn't work for you, then :(

Recently when I updated the diceplayer, it stopped playing any video and the app will just exit out. Since I have the paid version, I sent an email to the dev.

Also, it plays avi files without any lags or issues.
