It is due to the "stop all playing sounds" gesture which you can deactivate in settings>motion
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dynamiclynk:
Wonderful thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] M0D1441:
Can you clarify your second question? I'm thinking of adding back the samsung clock, maybe in addition to the AOSP one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] M0D1441:
Did that fix it? cause i can't seem to replicate your issue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] M0D1441:
I personally prefer the AT&T version since it tends to be more polished and a teeny bit better battery and it just runs better on my device, but it might just be me. It comes to if you care about CIQ or not, because i don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fishlipsboy:
the way you can disable an alarm in the stock app was by sliding a big red bar. it is easier to turn off than to tap the dismiss button on the popup dialog, but adding back the default clock that came stock should work too, as well as AOSP, options are nice.

I forget what it's called, but it's a way to ease into waking up, instead of your alarm going off, it has different audio files in it, like rainforest, river, etc. things of the nature sort with chirping birds and rain falling. by having more alarms i meant instead of the 8 or 10 we can choose from in this clock app, like say i have a song on my SD card that I'd like to wake up to, then i could choose that, so it would search the whole media card for files to play.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] M0D1441:
Smart alarms? its my reason i want the stock clock back :p look forward to it in the next update

Does anybody tried to connect over joikuspot as your wireless connection?

That's an application for symbian phone. As far as I'm concerned, if you will use that application it will turned it to wifi hotspot. But the problem is, when I tried to use that application, it didn't works for me.

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] -HellRaiser-:
you mean that you are using joikuspot on your symbian phone to use the wifi in ur android phone.

if yes then have you tried to use the wireless connection on any other device because once i tries joiku it never worked for me when i tried to use it with my pc.

so better try something else
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] nhervitz21:
Yeah! I've tried to connect joikuspot with other phone similarly with symbian phone as wlan connection, it searched and it works. While the nokia s40v5 series e.i. C3 when searching wlan from the symbian it can't find a connection same with Samsung.

[LG Optimus 3D] cezzarmicu:
hi guys,

just tried the newly released cm7 and while the performance was defintely better than the lg software, i believe it still has a long way to go as the camera department is very much still lacking :(

on another note, while on stock/custom lg firmware, i have always attributed the not-so-fluid playback of captured videos to poor camcorder performance. but i was completely surprised to see that the videos i have captured before (with thiaiz and acura roms) played fluidly on the cm7 release and appeared to be really 30fps.

so does this mean that the released lg firmware has trouble playing back its own captured videos and that its camcorder is actually good and takes 30fps indeed?

ps,

i'm back to thiaiz 2.3 rom now
[LG Optimus 3D] Meemo23:
Yeah i was loving it till i recorded a video of me and my mate then came home to find there was stutters in the shot damn angry now lol imma go back to 21a then i suppose damn loved how quick it was and etc...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NintendoSpy:
To be honest, the sound quality on the Nexus is nowhere near something like an iPod Touch and while I am not complaining (as that is a dedicated music player) I was wondering if there was some way to raise the quality of music playback through headphones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidstyle:
Search sound+ from market or here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NintendoSpy:
Searching sound+ on the market dosent turn up anything. Did you mean Volume+? Searching it here turned up voodoo control but its got a price and I want to be sure it works before I buy it.

yeah I too actually thought the sound quality of this nexus was really good. Just tried using my good pair of 150 dollar headsets and I was impressed. My iPod touch is good too. That GSM arena review is impressive.
[Kindle Fire General] bb-gun:
SOLVED I have done something very very stupid. I tried flashing a galaxy nexus kernel to my kindle fire. I've been flashing roms/kernals all day to my G-nex and for some reason i was thinking i was on my gnex and i just flashed it in rom manager on my kindle fire (DUMB). Now my KF will only boot into TWRP. I have adb working on my computer if someone could just help me figure this whole shinanigans out.
[Kindle Fire General] bb-gun:
I was on cm7 when i flashed it. then i tried flashing cm9. it looks like it flashed it right but it wont boot up. it just goes straight to twrp.
[Kindle Fire General] ghost_og:
Did you select reboot into recovery at any point? From reading other threads, it seems like people get stuck in TWRP due to bootmode settings after choosing that option.

*EDIT* I'm guessing if you used ROM Manager the app defaulted to booting into recovery in order to install the kernel.
[Kindle Fire General] bb-gun:
Yeah. I even knew i wasn't supposed to do that. I was half awake when i did it. Is there any way to recover it?
[Kindle Fire General] ghost_og:
Pretty sure. Search the dev forum for how to switch boot modes. I think the Kindle Fire Utility thread would be a good place to start.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] davewuvswaffles:
I put a bunch of videos on my new MicroSD that I got in the mail yesterday, and while all of them will run in Moboplayer (except for American Psycho which is in AVCHD in a .m2ts container), they all seem to stutter a bit.

So, I was wondering what is the most reliable video codec and container for the NT?

It says that it supports:

but H.264 seems to stop running every few seconds for me.

Quick edit: Just finished uploading an MKV file and it seems to be the best so far, although the subtitles are coming up even though I disabled them in Moboplayer.

Any other recommended video players perhaps?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lenardo:
i use mx video player personally
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
yea mx video player is most smooth IMO. If available SW Fast decoding provides best playback of HD files 720p or 1080p. Of course it drains more battery so yeah...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] davewuvswaffles:
Just installed it and it's running much better than Mobo was for me, thanks you guys.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lenardo:
Any time. Btw handbrake is a great way to convert your dvd's to mkv or mpeg4 format. Blurays will be too large to play,but most dvd,s will be about 700meg. I also use anydvdhd to strip the drm. On the computer i also use media browser for listing the movies. Bluray dvd's i have are played with media player classic hd with shark 007 codec pack
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] OMGitsShan:
I grabbed 2 Youtube music videos - one 720p and one 1080p - both mp4 files. They work with no issues with the B&N video player but mx video player installed from the market wont play them. I don't get any errors or warnings its just stuck there at 00:00 with no movement and a black screen with the video controls - all i can do is exit. If I am to install one of the codec packs from the market - arm6/7 etc - which one should it be? Not sure what the processor is!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
From what I understand you shouldn't install ay codex pack unless mx player tells us to
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] davewuvswaffles:
I think its ARM7 you want to get.

Also, mp4 is only a container filetype. The codec used for compression is also important, for example HuffyUV, H264, X263.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Doctorword:
yea i have a video thats an avi but it closes out any media player right away...just opens the player then closes lol
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
i have an avi on my NT and it loads fine. i think the previous poster was right about the codec. the codec is more important than the container. you might want to email the developers who made mx video player and ask them about it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Doctorword:
I need to run g-spot on it, it might have a weird codec or something
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DipDog3:
Been using Mx Video and it has worked with every video that I have thrown at it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nook_lover:
h264 codec is hardware accelerated in MX Video player. Even FullHD videos are played smoothly.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jomamasfat:
What container are you using? I can't get HW acceleration to work for any h.264 files in mkv, mp4, mov, or m4v. I use MX player and it kicks over to the SW decoder every time.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] PepeladZ:
Here are my discoveries about HW video decoding in MX Player:

1. originally I uploaded some 1.5 gig MKV file downloaded from the web to SD card and tried to play it, but nothing happened - MX played it in SW mode.

2. Then, I created/converted some small video to MP4 (H.264 and AAC) and tried playing it with MX - and it worked fine

3. Strangely, but after playing hand-converted video MX started to play MKV, but with glitches...

So I think MX has some bugs when run on NT or it is not fully compatible with NT.

EDIT: ArcSoft Media Converter was used...

I'm not going to lie to you...from a technology standpoint, Siri is pretty excellent. I do hope Google catches up in regard to setting reminders, calendar events and non-email notes via Voice.

On the other hand, who wants to pay an exorbitant cost on a dated framework, unreliable service and 100% liability device? Anybody...anybody...Bueller?

Didn't think so.

Plus the screen is just so gosh darn teeny. Feh..

All I see is an app drawer when I look at an iphone. I always said there's more to a phone than just apps. Yes widgets, extended batteries, expandable memory, hacking, launchers, keyboards, fonts, themes, live wallpapers, huge screen, not having to use iTunes, endless customizing. Only Borg type people are iphone users. Plus your supporting shady business practice.

The biggest turn off is the tiny screen. Ive also told people I couldnt deal with such a small screen.

Tiny screen is unacceptable.

Slave to apples dictatorship on how your phone will look and operate.

I've used both platforms extensively and there are definitely strengths and weaknesses to them both. The arguments back and forth can be pretty funny especially on forums like Engadget. The statement that iPhone users are dumb though is one argument that I find ridiculous. Out of all my friends i am definitely the most tech literate. I flash roms, theme my phones, even write some applications. A lot of the people I know that use iPhones are doctors and lawyers, but don't have that much interest or the time for technology so simple is good. To think you are smarter than someone because you can switch out your launcher or overclock your phone is pretty stupid to begin with. Most of this is just effort. You are probably kidding, so not directed at you... this just always comes up in these "discussiond" especially when folks starting getting personal. Cheers.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
I'd suggest that the best way to illustrate the comparison is to hand them the Epic, suggest a couple things and let them explore. I say this because most of my extended family worship at the church of iPhone and during Christmas I mentioned having a device that is faster, has more features and does more than the iPhone. After the laughter and doubting comments died down, I got my Epic and handed it to them.

The screen size and incredible resolution amazed them. The speed of the device in finding GPS, using the Web and overall performance had them reacting like a kid on Christmas morning; especially since before I mentioned the Epic they all were having various iPhone issues.

Then I introduced them to Google Music and explained how my entire lifetime music collection is available, none stored on my device and watch how quick I can get any song, switch songs, etc.

Finally I clicked the YouTube app and told them to play a video; they were blown away by the picture quality, big screen and bufferless video stream. Additionally they all want Swype which they thought was the greatest thing ever.

This device really impressed them and they all agreed there was no comparison but they were too invested in their history of incarnations of the iPhone to make the switch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] riassan:
you can run with this in so many ways

phatmanxxl pointed out my favorite smatphone for dummies, it is that somewhat in the fashion of its not as technically inclined as an android handset. to do most of the great stuff which over the years apple has stolen from third party/cydia apps to incorporate in yto its OS. people like it really bc its simple yet gives that thought of "i have an iPhone". that setup is like this the iphone is the addict, itunes is the middle man, and cupertino i s the pusher!lol

my biggest one i always throw at them is damn for you to switch your phone you got to syn all your stuff through itunes, for me grab another phone sign in and keep it moving.
