[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
seriously, and i mean it.. did you guys have trouble multitasking with youtube?

When you buffer anything inside youtube, and you switch to ANY other app for example browser or calendar or whatever, all the buffer you have done, will gone back to zero !! Wtf!

How stupid this is?? And i wonder why nobody has ever noticed this and complained about it somewhere over the net.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oshogg:
Yes, I have even basic problem with youtube. When I switch to another app, why does the video stop playing? Sometimes, I am only interested in the audio!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adaba:
Hi, I'm having same prob and I don't think we can do anything to it ;/
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
you mean the video stops playing but audio still play? I dont think so
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oshogg:
No, the video can continue to play but in the background. For example, on a PC, if I have youtube video playing in a browser tab, and I switch to another browser tab - the video continues to play back. So, I can at least listen to audio (which is useful for music videos).

Thanks,

Osho
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vauxhallastra:
I have this problem and it annoys me, as I have very slow internet,so last thing I need is for it to restart again.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
Yea, i know that if in pc, you switch to another tab, youtube would still continue buffering. But this did not happen in tab's youtube. If I buffer any video, and then i switched to browser, then switch back again to youtube, all the buffers would have gone to zero.

Are you 100% sure you dont have this problem with your stock youtube app?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
Are you talking about p1000 or the new gt with honeycomb?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sassafras_:
Don't be fooled into thinking that Android's multitasking is that much more robust than iOS. When you move away from an app, the system sleeps the VM that it is running in to devote clock cycles and memory to your current working application. The only way an app can continue to persist alive in the background is to specifically request to remain alive and working on something with background processes. The YouTube app doesn't do this, so when you move away from it the application sleeps.

The only advantage Android has over iOS in terms of multitasking is the easy ability for an app to run background processes if it so chooses. Fortunately no sane app developer is going to write an app that tries to stay completely active in a non-windowing OS.

sassafras
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultanbrunei:
Okay, i know it make sense to not write an app that tries to stay completely active in background. But wouldnt it make sense for an app such as youtube that needs a lot of buffer (since not all country in the world have fast mobile connection), to be partially active in background, such as the buffering ability?

I think that make sense! And i still wonder why wouldnt honeycomb developer realize this .
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jake-CT:
Be careful, Playbook owners might start feeling smug about their device if they see things like this ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labovski:
I would also like Youtube to be able to play in the background, just like on a PC. Why not? It can't be too hard to programme either.

Swedish national radio, Sveriges Radio, has a good app that allows you to listen to all their programmes and the app runs smoothly in the background while I surf or do other stuff on the tablet. You'll find it at Google Play (former Market) if you're interested.

An other thing that Youtube on Android does not do is to run playlists. Again, why not? :)

I can't really see the point in removing great features when you develop a new OS. The goal can't really be to make it worse compared to the PC, can it? :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quorn23:
A solution would be using OverSkreen (Browser) and just open youtube in a small window.

does anyone have idea how to make spb tv work on cm7?

works well with any other roms only on cm7 it stops streaming after one frame.
[Defy Themes and Apps] otto2009:
I am having the same problem.

I have spb tv on my MT4G running cm7, and it plays only prerecorded video channels, Deutsche Welle TV, or somtimes I get sound or I get video but not at the same time. Strange. Please heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp somebody! I want my SPB TV back. Thanks in advance.
[HTC EVO 3D] corybucher:
OK everyone please excuse my noobish question but who the hell is s-off and why is this dude so important to have for our phones to make it function?!?!?! I thought buying through sprint should be enough to make my phone function but apparently that's not true? Also why would anyone want to see there phones get s-offed or f-offed or what ever y'all calling it. Does this also mean that I can't play angry birds without this dude s-off or make prank calls? Someone with a little more intelligence please explain why s-off is so important and where does he live so we can just go to his house and beat his door down for not coming out.

[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
+1

Also, everyone who asks for s-off annoys the crap out of me. It's like they don't realize it takes time to get to that point, even more so with a locked bootloader - I realize ARX has s-off and I'm not trying to diminish what they or teamwin or any dev working on it but until its public we still don't have s-off for all intents and purposes. But back to the OP, feels good to laugh.

PS - for every one post asking for an ETA god kills an Android dev. Please, think of the devs.

Well we may have to wait just a tad longer. I read in the sensation forums they were waiting for the mytouch slide 4g (which was released today) and was shipped s-on and fully locked.

[Acer Iconia A500] :
I bought mine at Best Buy in the US, and it's a GEN 1. That being said, the .40 release has a GPS.conf file that's set for North America, so if it is an Australian update, they messed up big time! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Here's the gps.conf straight out of the .40 update that you state is an Australia release:

"NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org

SUPL_HOST=supl.google.com

SUPL_PORT=7276"

If this is an Australian update, then Acer screwed the pooch for the ppl getting this update in Australia ;)
[General Questions and Answers] usafrmajor:
I am having a problem getting my list view based on retrieved data from a database to show the full screen and scroll. For some reason neither the fill_parent or wrap_content values for my layout height setting is being recognized. Right now my view only shows about a quarter of the screen. However, if I put in a hard codded number for the height it works, but that is not a good solution because the user can enter unlimited number of entries into the database that could be displayed on the list. Without the hard coded size I can see that something is being displayed behind the list for a couple seconds. I am assuming it is an error message but cannot figure out how to see what it is saying.

It worked correctly at one time but I cannot figure out is now is preventing the screen from using the whole size with scrolling if needed. I wanted to add the code to this post however for some reason I cannot.
[HTC Sensation] McWolffo:
Hi there, long time lurker but first time posting.

I've just got the Sensation based on the feedback a lot of users here have given it, and so far it's a fantastic handset except for one thing: the volume rocker is extremely flimsy!

I took the battery door off yesterday and when I went to put it back on the volume rocker had slipped out from its opening and snapped as I was replacing the phone.

Is there anywhere I can get a new volume rocker? I've already called HTC UK and they've said the only way to replace is to send the handset in to get repaired. I was hoping I might be able to buy an OEM battery door from eBay but none of them seem to explicitly state that the volume rocker does come with the case, and i'd rather not spend £30~ for a tiny piece of plastic :P

If anyone has any suggestions they'd be greatly appreciated

Cheers, Dave

Get back onto Htc and they should send you a replacement back. Ive had it do it on me and ive seen a few others on here with it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King Shady:
Hey guys sorry If this has been asked before, but I have only briefly browsed the GSII thread and am on my iPhone so its hard for me to search. Anyways, as the title insists, if I buy an unlocked GSII, can I still keep my unlimited data plan? And, in order to use my sim in my iPhone 4, I must buy a micro sim converter correct? Thanks all!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3waygeek:
You should be able to keep your unlimited data plan; I have. I've had the EU version of the SGS2 on my AT&T plan for 2+ months with no complaints. I can get about 7 Mbps on HSPA+ if conditions are just so.

There is a 4G unlimited plan (billing code HSDPPB) you can convert to -- it's supposed to get you faster speeds on HSPA+, but you need the IMEI for a "valid" 4G phone (i.e. one that AT&T sells). I haven't bothered with that yet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King Shady:
Ok thanks, I have a weird situation, - grandfathered unlimited- which was used on iPhones, but then I got an HTC inspire so I believe it's a 4G plan also.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Wrong section but will help anyway.

After you S-OFF'd with AlpharevX, it prompted you to install recovery, if you did then skip the first step, if you didn't then follow from no. 4

Reboot into fastboot and plug phone in with USB cable (turn off, hold back + power)

1. Download fastboot.exe, and put it C:

2. Download recovery, and put it in C: rename it to "recovery.img" (for simplicity & without the quotes)

3. open cmd (press windows key + R, type "cmd" and press ok). In cmd type:

cd c:\ [hit enter]

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img c:\recovery.img [hit enter]

fastboot poweroff [hit enter]

4. with the phone off, hold "volume down" and "power", this will boot you into HBOOT, wait for the phone to look for some files (which it won't find), use thevolume keys to navigate to "RECOVERY", select with power.

5. phone will reboot, show splash screen, go to "backup & restore" and select "backup", and wait for it to finish. Go to "advanced", select "wipe dalvic cache", then go back to the menu and select "wipe data/ factory reset". Now go to "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard", and locate the ROM you want to install, and wait for it to finish, then reboot.

everything was fine till now with the charger,lately i have this strange charging problem which goes like this..

previously when we connect the wall/usb charger charging used to start immediately but now it takes time..i need to wait for 45 seconds then the light appears..??

previosly it used to attain 100% charge quickly..but now its slogging??i mean very slow trust me...

responds late to the power n then slow charge??????????????

its the same even when i try with usb and the worst part is it doesn even detect usb connection but charge at slow rate??

any ideas?thanks in advance!!

right now im on cobratos 2.3.4 awesome miui rom!!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beau420:
So you are using APP2SDcard? You are going to have problems mounting it to USB, if the SDCard is already being used.

For the 45 second thing....I donno....do you have any Task Manager app where you can make sure you don't have like 10+ apps running? Check that. Turn all apps off and then try.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagrockz:
Noo im not using app2sd..the phone gets charged but not able to mount when connected thru usb????
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beau420:
Can you unmount the SDCard under Settings->SDCard and Phone Storage?

If you can unmount it....do that....then plug the phone into a computer (using the original USB cable that came with the phone)

And try using different USB ports or a different computer.

It not charging for 45 seconds after you plug it in would make me want to reflash and start from scratch again. Not a good sign.

That is probably what I would suggest next.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagrockz:
Will try with a different computer and let you no...

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llama69:
Have you tried changing the usb cable? I was convinced my usb port had gone, as it took ages to recognise the charger, and I often had to wiggle the cable where it was plugged into the phone to get it to start charging.

Then I left my cable at home and had to buy a cheap £1 blackberry charge cable from poundland to charge my phone at work - and all problems went away!

After checking the ends of both cables, it looks like the usb pins have become bent inside the small end of the usb cable (mini-usb end).

I'd doublecheck this before doing anything more drastic as it's a simple thing to overlook (well, I did!)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagrockz:
Yep tried with different cables too..i don't think its the problem of usb port too as there is a late recognition ..slow charging but no sd connection

hey,

I bought the nexus s (9023) about two months ago, stock rom, not rooted, and for the last week or two, it started making problems.

about 1-5 times a day, i can't here the other side at all. as if it's on mute. not even the ringing tone, before I'm answered. the only thing that solves it, is to restart the phone.

in other forums i've read that it's a mess, and that i should use my warranty. the problem is i bought the phone abroad, and shipping it should take about 3 weeks.

is it a common issue?

can i solve it alone, mabye by switching to a non-stock rom?

i'll be very happy to read some good news here, but bad news is better than non.

thanks a lot,

tal

p.s, iv'e downloaded system info to monitor the temp, and it doesn't happen necessarily when the phone is hot.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TF1984:
I don't know... I am rooted, I have used 5 different roms since purchasing my phone.

Stock

CM 7

Savaged Zen

Oxygen

Soju

I have also used several kernels

CM Stock

Netarchy

Matrix

James Bond

Trinity

So far, on all roms and kernels I have experienced the same problem. You make a call and it connects, looking at the screen the time counter is going but there is no sound; it will sit there and hold the call for 30-55 seconds then ends call. A quick redial and bam it works. Some people have reported that they answered and there was nothing. I don't know, it's really obnoxious.

The other, more annoying problem is that randomly on calls throughout the day the phone will just reboot itself. Right in the middle of a call. AHHHH like 3-5 times daily!
