[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erakko:
So, I am thinking about putting custom ROM to my SGS i9000. Its currently with Android version 2.3.3.

I've been reading through this forum and most of custom ROMs are for Froyo? I mean many of instructions say that you have to be on Froyo if you want to use this ROM.

My question is must I get back to Froyo somehow or is it possible to put custom ROM for my current Android version?

Sorry about my noobishm. And I hope my english is good enough for you to understand.

Many thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
Wrong, most of the custom roms are based on gingerbread. Stay as you are mate :) more excitement to come :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A.G.:
You can always switch between 2.2. and 2.3.x. The only thing you need to pay attention to is that you need to flash the proper bootloader.

Flashing a bootloader is risky insofar as if the bootloader is not flashed properly, your device is thoroughly bricked and can only be revived by Samsung (or someone with the proper hardware). Furthermore with Froyo you may erroneously flash a locked bootloader which would make you stuck with that one ROM for the rest of your device's life, so make sure you only flash unlocked ones.

This said, there are actually few ROMs out there that still rely on Froyo (Insanity comes to my mind as an example). So you probably won't need flash Froyo just because of custom ROMs. Simply follow DonVito2020's link and choose a Gingerbread one.

Look at the fifth comment. Nice instruction, but is it safe one?

I'm gonna try it if it is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A.G.:
It looks like a good how-to. Whether it is safe or not I cannot tell without looking into the files, however since the post links to Gingerbread ROMS, not Froyo ROMs, it is most certainly safe, as far as the bootloader is concerned (at least I have never heard of locked Gingerbread bootloaders for the Galaxy S).

Though since you are already on stock Gingerbread, take a look under at the Baseband Version under Settings - About Phone. The last three letters will tell you which release of Gingerbread you have. In my case the baseband is I9000XXJVR, so I have JVR.

If you already have JVQ or JVP, you can flash the kernel and then Darky's Rom directly. Just don't forget to backup everything. ;)

Hi,

I am a newbie here, so I hope I posted in the correct thread.

I have unlocked and installed the Oxygen ROM on my HTC Desire.

It is working successfully. I have one small problem/query however.

When I am connecting it to the USB, I cannot read the drive from my computer.

Has anyone experienced this problem? Do I need to format the SD Card?

Thanks in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x Taz x:
have you restarted your computer and your phone? That's what has corrected this for me in the past.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infonote:
A stupid thing. In the Oxygen ROM notifications screen, there is an option to enable the USB.

That solved the problem.

Thanks for reply.
[HTC Desire S] narinderghir:
Hi guys,

Hope someone can help, my phone seems to have lost the ability to update for example i use 'whatsapp', unless i open the program i will not get any messages which kind of defeats the purpose. I also am not notified of when i recieve a email (gmail) and last but not least my googletalk app shuts down almost instantly, as soon as the splash screen is up its gone again :(

Any ideas??

The best task killer is not to use one.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Dorkington:
Normally I don't need to, but I like to have something easy and quick for times when apps cause an issue (more often than I'd like, unfortunately).
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] zephiK:
Maybe you should look for alternative apps then? Task killers are not the solution.

If that is the case, just use the defualt Android to force close it.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
Just got my Transformer yesterday and overall I like it but one of the biggest issue that I found is that I cannot stream mkv files from my HTPC to it (or haven't found a way to do it).

Is there a player that supports streaming of MKVs ? Also, other than using Plex is there any other option to do streaming ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] angerized:
DicePlayer can stream MKV files, on a CIFS/samba share. I suggest you try the trial.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] SteamTrout:
While Dice player can't play a single MKV I've thrown at it (and I tried a LOT of different files) and is, IMO, a complete waste of money I second the CIFS mount suggestion. that's the only way I found to reliably and painlesly watch movies from my NAS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
I tried Dice player and it did not even play my AVIs so I don't know why it is regarded as such a great player.

Is there a noob friendly guide of using CIFS somewhere?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Mr Paul:
Dice player plays all the MKV's I've thrown at it ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] david279:
Dice player work for me as well. Streaming using upnplay.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jim13524:
Dice player works great on my htc sensation, i can play all my hd stuff, was rather annoyed to find out that my phone can play video better than my tablet though. Apparently tegra 2 struggles with high profile h264.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Backwardsblade:
DICE plays all my anime mkv's, It's by no means the perfect application but it does a good job with support for certain audio streams. I don't regret the purchase.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] steini81:
No problem with Dice Player playing mkv. For streaming from HTPC i use Bubble UPNP or UPNPlay but i think Bubble UPNP is more userfriendly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Diamond360:
I just download the two apps. Bubble is more honeycomb friendly, but it will be a paid app in september.

But, Dice Player through Bubble or Upnplay can't show the subtitle included in the mkv movie file. I have to download the mkv file in order to have the subtitle. Is there another way to do it through UPNP streaming only?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
After a lot of trial and error I was able to stream mkv with the following combination

TVMoBili + Bubble + DicePlayer/Mx Player

Only with Dice player, the video does not shutter but Mx Player is the only one that shows embedded subtitles and unlike DicePlayer, I can skip ahead the video.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Diamond360:
I use PS3 Media Server which work for ps3 and the ASUS tablet!

But MX Player (free version) is laggy when it come to play a 720p mkv video file. Dice Player is perfect with 720p file. It is a shame that Dice won't play subtitle when it play streaming videos.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Gtj94:
Just saying. I'm watching a 720p video on my transformer right now using mxplayer and the armv7 codec for it and its running perfectly and no issues whatsoever.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] newtybar:
Streaming wise, I use Qloud and it is awesome.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] RAMBO29:
I still cannot stream MKV.DICE was lagging even for normal videos when Rockplayer was able to make it work well. Will try mxplayer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] SilentMobius:
Please remember that MKV is just a container, inside that container you can have almost any combination of video codec and audio codec. MP4 is also a container but it has a very limited range of allowed video/audio codecs, so it's much easier to support.

If you are using the Android system video decoding (The only way to get hardware accelerated playback) you will be able to play some 720p h.264 video streams. If you are just using the CPU to decode then 720p will never be smooth.

All these video players can do is try to unwrap the containers (Like MKV or AVI) and _maybe_ do soft-decoding on the audio if the android system doesn't support the audio codec (Like AC3/DTS)

If the player does full CPU decoding for the video stream you won't be able to play HD content smoothly, ever (Things that claim "Optimised for the Tegra 2 CPU" are still just doing the work on the CPU).

This means that there will _never_ be a Tegra2 Android app that can play _all_ MKV's it's simply not possible. This is why people are saying "Plays my MKVs fine" and other are saying "Won't play any of my MKVs"
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
After spending many frustrating hours trying to stream my mkvs, the only 100% working solution that I have found so far is to use MyCloud app an remote desktop into my HTPC. This way I not only have access to all my movies/tv shows I can play them with subtitles.

I know its not the best solution but at least it is a working one :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Drybonz:
I'm using Plex to stream movies, but I can't recall if I have tried any .mkv files. Can anyone confirm? If so, OP might want to try Plex... it's pretty slick.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] SilentMobius:
Plex re-encodes on the fly so it'll play anything that the server can transcode in realtime. But the quality will be notably lower.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] xbs:
For SMB streaming I use ES File Explorer.

MX Player for avi's (SW).

MXP loads subtitles from the tablet.

Dice Player for mkv's (HW).
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] shakenfr:
all are good players but BUT how to mount samba drive to use one of this player ???

is it need a rooted android ???
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ajamils:
Tried Plex today and it works quiet well. I specially like the interface. The only issue is that it is considerably slower and I have not been able to get subtitles work on my mkv files.

Other than that, I'm still digging playing files directly using the remote desktop app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] rmbell:
Rockplayer is a really great media player app. Download the tegra specific apk from their website.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] me88me:
Hi there,

Been having the same problem with MKV files. When i soft code it, it plays the video find but no audio at all. If i hard code it, everythings smooth but pictures starts to get very pixelated and also small square boxes start flying everything. I've tried all the apps that were listed and i still don't have a good player to play any mkv files. Is there no solution at all to this issue other than converting the file?

Thanks a bunch!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dagrim1:
My main issue seems to be my wifi connection when streaming... The movie starts fine but then starts to stutter (this is with just about any app). Seems like my wifi can not keep up with it, but appearantly it IS possible?!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] juami:
Diceplayer can play mkv(+DTS/AC3/Flac) with full Tegra2 HW video decoder ( NOT Tegra2 optimized SW decoder ).

Diceplayer can handle HW video decoder directly. other players(ROCK,MX,Mobo,vPlayer,Arc....) can not do this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] johnnygink:
I've been having pretty good results streaming mkv files using ES File Explorer to browse to and choose files on a NAS SMB share and open them in the free MX Player w/ARM 7 codec and sw decoding enabled.

Haven't tried any of the paid apps since I didn't want to buy something that might not work. But tried Mobo and a few others before MX finally handled the variety of mkv files I have.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] TGA_Gunnman:
ES Explorer and Dice. The only way to go. imo

Google buys Motorola mobility. Guess we'll have to wait and see who makes the new Nexus.
[Nexus S General] tmcquake:
The latest rumors according to BGR is it will be the Samsung Nexus Prime. Google's acquisition of Moto won't affect this. They would've been developing the Prime with Samsung for 8 or 9 months and if they intend a Q4 2011 release, then there would'nt be time to change hardware vendors.

Don't matter to me Google will do it justice no matter what manufacturer makes it...I disliked Samsung for the longest but now after the Nexus S they are making the best phones IMO...I just can't wait and I do hope Samsung gets the next one again...Motorola might get a crack at a nexus in the future for sure tho
