I've tried Dice Player, VPlayer and MX Video Player.

I didnt like Dice Player as the soft buttons always stayed on the screen, regardless of how big you made the video. The Hardware playback was jerky and software seemed to be nice and smooth. When I was watching a video, I'd have to pause the video first (which wouldnt work straight away). But when I clicked the home button and opened the video back up, it wouldnt remember where it was last paused.

On the other hand, MX Video Player is fantastic. It's on V1.5 at the moment and I've already watched 2 BluRay rips (4-6gb each!) and it's performed flawlessly. The screen expands to remove the soft buttons, you can increase the size of the video with pinch-to-zoom. If you slide your finger along the top of the screen, it fast forwards/rewinds the video in small increments. Along the left controls the brightness, along the right controls the volume.

When I pause, it remembers where I left off, and it's not crashed on me once.

All in all, for my purposes, MX Video is the best....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
Interested as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] str355:
I'm using MX player to play my AVI's, it goes full screen, seems fine (some play better under software mode rather than hardware mode).

I used to use rockplayer on my desire, but that didnt go full screen on the Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Retro-DK:
@ arun1uk

I just gave it a try. Its amazing :)

I got 1 question

What are these Decoders? And which one should I choose?

H / W Decoder

S / W Decoder

S / W Decoder (Fast)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WorldIRC:
Wishing VLC had an app!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wiggz:
don't get your hopes up...they've been "developing" one on and off since Android launched.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bierfreund:
The decoder settings seem not work for me.

If have 2 xvid avi files and an 720p mkv (h.264 video codec) lokally on my GNexus.

Independent from what i choose in decoder settings (SW, SW Fast, Hardware is not selectable, i hope this is normal) the avi file is ALWAYS played in HW Mode and the mkv file is always played in SW Fast mode.

Even if i select SW, or SW fast, the avi is played in HW mode.

The mkv is always played in SW Fast mode, even if i unselect the Fast mode option. (HW mode can't be selected, but even if i disable SW mode completly it is played in SW Fast, so it seems not to be able to play it in HW mode).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] L60N:
I used mx player to play an avi it worked perfectly! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Knolly:
Diceplayer is the only one I've found that could play all of my video reliably, in terms of audio and whatnot, as well as handle playing 1080p videos with zero lag or any other issues. MX would be able to play the 1080p, but it would be playing so slow that the audio would get out of sync immediately.

If you just give it a second once the video is fullscreen the buttons will go away

VPLAYER

VPLAYER is a good one
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nuumuun:
anyone ever tried mobo player?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mbroeders:
Yeah, use it on my Xoom tablet. It's awesome and definitely one of the best (if not the best). But it's not optimized for ICS yet I believe. So for now, MX player and Diceplayer are very good alternatives.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wiggz:
I loved mobo player on my Xoom. I use MX Video Player on my Galaxy Nexus...however the "decoder" options are just for show for me....hardware never seems to work as well as software....bit mad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Dice Player. Seems to work for about everything for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dnlsmy:
MX Player is a great free player optimized for ICS and the GNex, but make sure you use Software Decoding for best results. HW Decoding slows it down and SW FAST just destroys picture quality. I tested a 720p MKV file with a generous bitrate, should be fine.

Dice Player is better than MX Player by options only, giving you brightness control and other tweaks. Unfortunately, it's a 3 day trail and the full version has been pulled because they are having problems with setting up their payment account.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jaqb:
MX Player has also brightness control.... you need to swipe your finders on the left side of the screen (up or down)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bierfreund:
As i already posted here it's not always spossible to use software decoding. At least for me. my xvid avi files were always decoded in HW mode and are not played smoothly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nuumuun:
mx player seems to be the best option for now (only use sw decoding tho).

mobo player requires me to download some codec that doesn't work. can't get it past that installation screen.

tried on galaxy nexus with modaco custom rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kecinzer:
I found MX Player, and I love it. But when I recieved 1.5 update, I can't reach setting menu (no SW button, no button on screen).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyase9:
I love Mx player as well...works great on whatever I have thrown at it thus far
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kecinzer:
How can you access settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AlanPorter:
Yes, MX Player is working fine for me too.

I have not tried it on any broken yet, but will post results when I do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CasseTrop:
Dice works flawlessly for me.

I bought it months ago so I still have access to it on the market.

Works much better for the same files then on my TF101.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bcote311:
MX player works for me but it seems after I scroll to fast forward the audio gets all messed up and sounds really slowed down...

This was while playing an mkv file

Is this happening for anyone else?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paOol:
yea, i swipe the middle of the screen left, and it corrects itself usually.

or i'll press next, load a different video, then go back, and that works too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arabdrifter:
just downloaded dice player, and wow..am very impressed:) I have a Gnex w/stock jelly bean rom. I was using mobo/act 1 video player. Both have hard time playing different formats. I usually have to convert all my videos on my laptop w/any video converter to comply with the formats that the Gnex uses.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CHINESKATO:
Dice
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arabdrifter:
So far Dice , is the best player hands down!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khrushy:
MX player. I've tried Dice, mobo and a few others, but MX is the clear winner currently.

Set HW+ as video default codec and software for audio codec settings and it will play everything flawlessly, and it has the easiest UI out of the good players as a bonus.

MX Player Pro is the best android has.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemoon:
Well, Once I got MoboPlayer and RockPlayer, but MoboPlayer crashed on my GN several times, so I gave it up soon. Then the RockPlayer, it never crashed on me so I guess it's better than MoboPlayer. However, it still have same issue with remembering the place where I stopped. Same frustration.

Last also got MX video player. Same rating as other two players. It's free, and it is just amazing! So far I have tried so many AVI and MKV files, it all played extremely well. Plus the video converter I got from Aneesoft, now there are nearly no problem to play any video file on my GN!

Highly recommen Mx player, cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
This, dont use anything else, this plays anything you throw at it(i think)

MX Player

Usually I use MX Player. But sometime it fails to play .avi format. When that happen I always have VLC Player Beta for backup. It does play .avi but the gui not as best as MX Player.

Count me as another vote for MX Player. Used a few different ones but that one never fails me.

I'm currently using the MX player on my tab and it works super great.

Specifically for the galaxy nexus DICE player is the best, the only one you can play 1080p on the nexus with zero lag :D true story
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hirs:
MX player is for me the best, I just only miss a upnp browser.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndIKnow:
V Player is pretty good. They have a trial version which you can use for a week and the pro unlocker is pretty cheap if you like it. It plays any format without lag and has every feature you'll need.

I was using MX player because of the hw+ codec before. Now thanks to you guys I am also adding DICE to the list, it also uses hw decoding to videos that standard player can't properly play, but for me the killer feature above MX is windowed mode.

Can someone post the live wallpaper from this ROM please? thanks.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] eraursls1984:
You could download it and pull it yourself, you'd probably get it faster that way.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rashad1:
Good idea, I would just have to download the zip right?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eraursls1984:
Yeah, then extract/unzip the file. If that is the default wallpaper it'll be in framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk. It's great to learn where things are located because it makes it so easy when you see something you like from a Rom or theme and want to steal it for your personal theme.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rashad1:
Now I have to wait 2 hours for a 141mb file to download, just to extract a 3mb wallpaper :-/
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Archangel:
I keep getting a parsing error when trying to load the apk?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eraursls1984:
Change the file from apk to zip and extract it, then you'll have access to the the wallpaper and can move it where ever you like.

First you will need this recovery

Just put on external sd card and flash your folio normal (power + vol up)

then u can choose roms 2.2 2.3 and 3.1 (4.0 is to buggy yet):

best 2.3 (in my opinion)

update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-Folio100-KANG-signed.zip

ORIGINAL THREAD

best 2.2 (in my opinion) Foliomod 1.4

ORIGINAL THREAD

best 3.1 (in my opinion) Folio3xx v0.4(Honeycomb for Folio 100)

ORIGINAL THREAD

TO INSTAL IS JUST DOING THE NORMAL STEPS

WIPE DATA

WIPE CACHE

INSTAL FROM SD CARD (u can choose internal external or usb with this recovery)

and thats all simple and usefull

any question or sugestion is just ask

I DON´T MAKE ANY OF THIS ROMS I JUST ORGANIZE THE ITEMS IF U LIKE PLEASE PUSH THANKS BUTTON

Hi,

At Winrumors found an alarming article about an SMS-Bug.

A virus?

A simple way to access fundamental OS functions?

What else?

Have our developing guys there any advantage from this?

Have a look:

http://www.winrumors.com/windows-ph...ed-reboots-device-and-disables-messaging-hub/
[Windows Phone 7 General] downloaderintruder:
Its hardly a virus, hell its not even a virus. SMS only holds texts, characters and small byte-sized attachments (MMS).

Can't access windows phone contents unless its possible for SSH which is most unlikely done over SMS.

Jeez did not you read what you sent here, they said

Besides I wouldnt consider this one as a major bug unless they show a video of multiple windows phones receiving the same message.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
DOS attack for a E-911 device by receiving a sms sounds like a pretty big problem to me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Snake.:
err...what?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
DOS = denial of service (i.e., you cannot use your phone)

E-911= the emergency call number for US residents, summons police, fire, rescue, emt's (emergency medical technicians), or other qualified life saving type folks.

attack= someone/something sends a specific sms to your phone/phones, and you cannot call for help.

sms= self explanatory

problem= see DOS

i thought it was fairly easy to understand.
[Windows Phone 7 General] snuttis:
You are simply not able to get into the message app after recievin this above mentioned "SMS". So denial of service yes but you can still make a call...

Any one know the code to send? There is no fix atm
[Windows Phone 7 General] Snake.:
I know what DoS stands for, but probably you don´t understand the circumstances, first - the compromised text is NOT known, second - device will not recieve any SMS after being locked down (DoS then? Unlikely), and the third - you can still make calls.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
The device reboots upon receiving the text/sms/message. If the tile is unpinned immediately on startup, the phone will function until another similarly crafted message is received.

i looked in settings and noticed i had XW KF3 kernel so i downloaded CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4 put into Download mode and tried to flash using odin. i kept saying failed 1. i searched around for a while and found GT-I9100_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3 this successfully flashed but gave me a yellow triangle so i took battery out and flashed it again but its still the same? i keep getting this yellow triangle? my phone says its a GT-9100 ive since tried numerous kernels but cant seem to get it back to normal now :(

please help.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Why do you start rooting when you don't feel confident about it?

Anyway

1. Flash a stock rom to get back to stock. You probably want the KF3 stock rom.

2. Try CF-Root again and follow the instructions. It almost can't fail if you followed the instructions.

3. Dont use GT-I9100_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3 again. Stick with CF-root.

Don't worry you will be fine. Just take your time and read.

My last advice: if you get a failed error again, try to find out WHY it says failed instead of jumping to an other method.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KevandLynds:
Thanks for replying,

i can flash I9100XWKF3_Kernel no problem but it gives me a triangle

i then disconnect the phone and take battery out and put back into download mode and plug in usb cable and run odin and then try

but this gives me this error :

yeah kies is killed by control alt and delete,

unplug phone and put into download mode.

plug phone in

open odin

select pda and point it to c:\I9100XWKF3_Kernel

flashes no problem and then phone restarts to triangle

i then unplu take out battery and put back in then go to download mode and plug cable in and open odin and pda and point it to

CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4

then it comes up with failed.

dont know what else to try?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hughfollett:
If you don't want the yellow triangle you have to flash a stock rom(a wipe one I think it's better).

if you want root but no yellow triangle you can flash an insecure kernel, the cf-root kernel and then an original kernel....

Hope this helps! But don't worry about the yellow triangle...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KevandLynds:
ok so i just tried all this again using the stock then i flashed the CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4 which this time worked but im still on the triangle? how do i now flash a rom becuase i cannot get the phone to start past the triangle?

I rooted my LG-C660 by LG Esteem:

1.- You need to install the phone USB drivers (They are usually in the SD Card when they are new).

2.- If your pc has Windows 7, restart it, press f8 when starting and choose the "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement" option. Your pc will load normally. (If you don't have windows 7 just skip this step).

3.- When the computer is ready, put the phone in USB depuration mode (Settings-> apps -> Development). Connect it to the USB port and be sure your computer recognize it well.

4.- Download LG Esteem. I can't post the URL but go to google and paste this "LG_Esteem_Root.zip mediafire" , you will find it in the first link.

5.- Unzip and run "Run.bat". The program will start. Just follow the on-screen instructions and after seconds it will be rebooted. After this, your phone it's going to be rooted and you will find the Superuser app.

Try it, hope it helps you.;)
