[LG Nitro HD] LiViD:
Anyone else noticing this? I caught a few threads in the Xperia forums stating the same thing. I had no problems viewing HD content on my Legend, yet the screen resolution was smaller. Perhaps it's something to do with the new 720x1280 displays?
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Confirm. It looks choppy for a sec, then it skips frames and jumps ahead to compensate, then it starts choppy again, repeat. Regardless full screen or not - looks like not because of 1280x720

Stream is fast and buffer is full, not network issue.

Not seeing it... have a link of a video that doesn't work for you all?
[LG Nitro HD] LiViD:
I don't have a link, but lookup FPSRussia and watch his SA-80 video. That should give you an idea.

Edit: Gave it a go in Dolphin HD and the video plays without any form of stutter. Must be a crappy version of YouTube for these phones.
[LG Nitro HD] PearsonDKA:
Happening for me sometimes. I can use the desktop version of YouTube and everything runs fine. Even if I watch a movie I recorded at 1080p and play it back in the video player, it's sometimes choppy.

not trying to revive a dead topic , but i have the same issue on Bell lg optimus LTE , i have tried deleting youtube and resinstall from the market. everything works fine 1080p etc on mx video player . maybe the youtube player has not been optimized for P930 ? if anyone has a solution to this, please reply !
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Most likely it's just Youtube being broken or not optimized for the HD screen on this phone. I also have the same issue, and I even tried Screen Optimization. I feel that works a bit, but very little bit hehe.
[LG Nitro HD] cleancutx:
I went ahead and uninstalled the update from the Android Market in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Downloaded > Youtube. It went back to version 2.1.6 from 2.3.4 so I restarted the phone and gave it a go. It seems to perform a hell of a lot better, still not perfect but at least it doesn't drive me crazy.

Give it a go and see for yourself, you could always update it again on the market.

For me it looks like you are looking for a keyboard phone rather than a phone with lots of development going on. I think it's a good choice.

Hello all. I have a hd7 which i recently upgraded to mango 7740, and i have been always afraid to unlock my phone so i could install homebrew apps or deploy stuff, but im starting to gain interest in doing it. the only problem is that i dont know how to.. i´ve read around the forums but still havent understood how do it. can some1 help me?:s
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaitanya91845:
Either install a custom 7740 DFT ROM for HD7, or flash a stock ROM.

If you flash a stock ROM, you need to unlock the phone using Chevron method, upgrade to NoDo and use the "provxml" method to retain your unlock in Mango 7720. I donno if the unlock is retained when you update to 7740 though.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moviecouple:
I haven't opened my Nook Tablet yet, but was wondering about the over the air updates.

Does the tablet automatically update, without your knowledge, to the newest OS... or is it more like the iPhones over the air updates that tell you there is one available and you then can download and install it?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PlacidCat:
It does so automatically and without your consent as long as your device is "on" (e.g. asleep) with WiFi on. Turn off WiFi and you are apparently safe. My interpretation of other posts is that it won't happen while you are actively using the device but I've seen no hard proof of this.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moviecouple:
Then I have a follow-up question. If it does this automatically... then how can I prepare my device for rooting and sideload apps. You need to be connected to the internet to do this at certain points. Won't it auto update before I have a chance to do all this?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] -UnitMonster-:
Although mine is still sitting under the Xmas tree, you would have to connect to a router first before you could recieve a FOTA, so you should have the opportunity to turn off Wifi.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] albertwertz:
takes 3-5 minutes to download OTA update. Only turn on wifi long enough for downloads needed for root or just sideload them and you should be just fine. Follow video's on my channel if you need a walk through. I am uploading one now on how to block ota using indirects titanium backup apk patch
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moviecouple:
Since I already have Fotakill.apk on a SD card (transferred from my Galaxy Tab), couldn't I just sideload that into my Nook Tablet first before I do anything else to block the OTA? Will that work and then start the rooting/sideload steps?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CapsLockKey:
Someone posted that the Fotakill apk didn't keep them from getting the update. Need to either freeze devicemanager or edit the settings file for it. There's an easy tutorial in the development section that does the settings file change for you using Titanium Backup.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moviecouple:
So then what's the overall best way right now to Root/Sideload and kill the OTA's? I can use either windows or Mac and I also have a Galaxy Tab to grab apk's.

Too many threads on what works or doesn't work.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mazmes:
Can anyone confirm that the update will not hit will actively using devise. I can side load the five apk's that I want in short order. Then if I understand how the update works, I will still have access to the pre-update apps. after 1.41 is downloaded. I'm just not comfortable rooting right out the box at the moment. Long time member but first time poster, thanks to everyone for all info. on this site.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] moviecouple:
So if I just wanted to sideload apps without rooting... all I would need to do is

Enable "Unknown Sources"

Enable "USB Debugging" and other USB debugging further down

Untick Automount
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CapsLockKey:
Windows Root

Mac Root

Block OTA
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] curtym:
I don't think anyone truly knows. I got hit by 1.4.1

Sucks...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] clnook:
Ditto. I wish we had a moderated sticky post at the top of the forum, with no commentary and no questions that provides the current known state of affairs with respect to preventing the over the air update. I know many of the devs here are tech wizs and while it may be obvious to them and think it is reasonable to squirrel through multiple forums and threads to figure it out, it would be so much easier for everyone concerned to have a one-stop location that a select few folks could keep updated.

Thanks and keep up the good work
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] succulent:
If you were smart, you would've backup your apps and data with Titanium backup or similar app. If you got 1.4.1, do factory restore, reroot, and block the ota update.

OTA update are automatically. It happen when your NT is asleep and charged. Same with NC. You can do manually update too by copying the update zip to the media folder, I think from NC experience.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] albertwertz:
I have been nagged enough times, I am shooting a video today on restoring back to 1.4.0 and rerooting then blocking OTA
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ricochet11:
Hey Everyone!

OK so I'm a bit new to flashing but I did it before without a hitch so I felt a bit confident to try again lol. I should have quit while i was ahead.

I flashed Darkyrom 10.2 Extreme final edition from CWM in darkyrom 9.2. RE

I thought it was brilliant until I realized that my darkyrom tool didn't have ANY apps on the install tab, My market and gmail were missing, I couldn't go into recovery mode and my computer didn't recognize my phone any longer. I put my phone into download mode to try to flash another rom (10.2 Re) via Odin, but even in download mode my computer has no idea that it's connected. so basically my phone is stuck in developmental purgatory.

So I'm pleading with you wonderful rom masters, developers and geniuses. Help me save my phone Please :o
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ricochet11:
Hey Thanks.

I went through each one in an attempt to get into recovery mode. I was unable to, most likely because of the rom. I got the phone into download mode easily, but I cannot get into recovery or connect with the computer :-(

I can however browse surf and download things directly to the phone as long as it's not through the market as I don't have market access. Any ideas?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
What happens when you try to get to recovery?

Just a guess... Is there a messed up screen that looks white noise? If so its because, 10.2 is gingerbread and 9.whatever was froyo (not sure though, never ran darky)

If so yo will nerd Odin or heimdall as yo do not have the proper bootloaders.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Just curious, do you have the Android SDK installed on your PC? If not, I would try downloading that and make sure you download the driver pack. I'm not familiar with the Darkyrom but also make sure you don't need the drivers for a different device. I'm running ICS now and had to install Nexus drivers to connect.

Anyway, when finished with drivers and SDK install, try to use ADB to reboot into recovery. If you're not familiar with the process of setting up the SDK and ADB, go to the Dev section and check some of the stickies. Lots of good info there.
[Nexus S General] michalurban:
Hi, I have a problem when listening to music:

An incoming notification used to stop my music when a notification arrived. Now, I downloaded a music player with more options - I disabled the options which stopped music after headset was unplugged. It helped a little:

Now, when I listen to music and a notification comes, the music plays loud from the speaker for about a second or two, then going back to headset.

Happened on ICS, so I jumped back on GB. Same effect.

Also, I found out notification sounds are played always through the phone, not the headset.

EDIT: Found out this one is normal.
[Nexus S General] mkoch820:
Try PowerAMP. Pauses at unplug, starts again at plug. If you get a notification, music stops playing a few seconds, speaker plays the notif. sound, and the music continues on headset.
[Nexus S General] michalurban:
PowerAMP

Poweramp is what I meant by "Now, I downloaded a music player with more options" ... :)

Thats the player which disables pause-on-headset-unplug, but it makes the problem I described (the second one) ...

[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
I am using the standard email app set up to access my email POP account and leave messages on server to be downloaded on home computer later. I also sometimes look at my list of emails on the email provider's webmail interface. I have seen on several occasions there had been an email on the server and then I access my email with the phone and most of my email downloads to the phone but 1-2 messages do not download, and are deleted from the server. This means my android phone could cause me to never receive an email, if I am not aware of such email from the webmail.

This problem is very sinister in that most people having it will not notice. They will just never get perhaps 2 percent of their emails. To catch it, you have to be aware of an email existing on the server by other means such as webmail, then access email from the phone, observe a message that does not come down to the phone, and then see it gone from the server. I never had this disappearing email when accessing email with iOS devices, so I think it is this new Sensation phone doing it.

I have InsertCoin 3.4.4 ROM.

Anyone else see this and know what to do?

Any good alternative email clients for Android?
[HTC Sensation] tk_xda:
Any comments? Could this be due to insert coin ROM 3.4.4. A developer of another app I sent a log to over a bug is blaming my ROM.

Odexed is faster on first boot, not subsequent boots.
