Tried some .mkv files on my Transformer prime and the audio is way out of sync when on HW acc dec, sometimes 5 seconds behind the action. Get that fixed and this could be amazing! Looking forward to updates!

Wasn't able to do anything with my Galaxy S II E4GT. No FC, it would just go back to the homescreen. Used the A9 version. I'll post a logcat when I get a chance (and figure out how to lol).

In any case, thanks for the work! I've been waiting for this for a long time :)

HTC Flyer

Installed the [Cortex-A8, NEON] build on my HTC Flyer / Honeycomb.

Low -res files play just fine (flv, avi,...) but 720p plays very stuttering (unusable)

Hardware accelleration doesn't change much...

I did not have any crashes though.

It's not actually a Beta, but still alpha (as you can see when you launch it)

It looks promising, but it seems to take forever to get a usable version...:(

Yay a new version of vlc to put on my phone :D

I stillhave a build from when cvcps made one long ago haha.

Downloaded the correct APK, installed it just fine. I opened the application and it started scanning my SD Card for media. About halfway through, my phone rebooted, and now it complains "SD Card removed. Insert a new one"

Looks like my phone doesn't like this version.

Hey Buddy I have downloaded and tried the ARM6/ARM11 version on my Galaxy 3( ARM6 device)......but as soon as i open the app only a black screen appears and it closes after about 3 sec.....NO FC thing....just auto Close.....

Can u look into this matter ....Any ways Nice Project and Work Mate:-)

P.S : I am on CM7 Unofficial
[Android Apps and Games] acornkenya:
It didn't work on my Huawei Ideos U8150D running MIUIdeos 2.1. I installed the ARM 6 version. The app opens, seems to be scanning ( a dark grey blank screen shows for a few seconds), then it crashes. I tried rebooting, even moving the app from SD to main memory, but the problem persisted. Thanks for the app, though; I think this is a step in the right direction. Keep on the good work.

I'm sorry, but would you mind explaining those unusual permissions allocated to it? I'm not sure why this app needs access to "sensitive log data" and my phone state.

I also have the same problem on my transformer TF101..... Probably maker is working on a patch or better/compatible version.... I we have to hold on till then.... Even videolan (maker of vlc) saying their own player is under development.... Let's see who comes out 1st with a compatible and stable versions....

I'm such a noob I don't even know what to do with the zip file after downloading it on my Transformer. I downloaded an app to unzip the file but then what? How do I install?
[Android Apps and Games] Leegalaxy:
No need to unzip just click the file and install using ROM manager or package installer.
[Android Apps and Games] adridu59:
Use BubbleUPnP to do this. (thanks vulcanfk)

Yea I'll do this eventually.

Oh its just a selfmade trojan that I wanted to test. :D

More seriously, those are the default build parameters, I'm kinda new to java developement now so stay tuned for further updates.

Well... it reads from SD card as default on my phone but you can set your media files folder in Settings.

[Android Apps and Games] hrk:
B*ll S**t. The default build parameters for an Android app are No permissions at all.

It is true, however, that the official VLC source has them. I'll dig in the source to see why.

EDIT: let me clarify my original point. I have nothing against you, let this be clear. The point is that if I see in the official VLC app on the official Android Market that the app requires READ_LOG (which means it can read anything) I think that the developers could need it for debugging purposes, they're being lazy, or whatever! They are the VLC devs, source code is public, I already trust them. No biggie.

If, however, I download an apk file from Your Average Joe on XDA over a mediafire link... well, forgive my paranoid nature, but I won't trust it (and I didn't).

Having now gone through the official source code, I now know that VLC is requesting the permission to use it only in their CrashHandler, which basically dumps the crash info to the SD. Considering they're not officially releasing the app, I'm fine with it being a private debug code. To me you still are Your Average Joe on XDA, but I'm now going to trust you. :)

No joy on Motorola Triumph

I was all excited, and I downloaded two of the versions to try. (The Triumph uses a Snapdragon MSM8655, listed as a S2 on Wikipedia.)

Neither version worked, though. Both exhibited the black-screen-then-just-exit behavior described by others.

Is Froyo/2.2 not supported? I'll be disappointed, but I'll understand why I couldn't get what is clearly an awesome beta running on my phone. (Also, the OP lists GB|ICS support, but doesn't say NO Froyo. If minimum GB is required, I think that should be very clearly stated.)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] neoss119:
Dear All,

I would like to tell you quiet a scary story that happened to me today involving my View.

I was surfing on my View (while it was charging, probably about 30%-40% at the time) when suddenly without any slow-down/crash/other sign the screen goes dark and the View won't turn on. Nothing works, hard reset, unplugging, trying different outlets, chargers, connecting via USB to my desktop, laptop each for a few minutes- nothing. The only thing showing that there might be still some life inside my View was occasionally blinking orange/red light that caused me a little concern as it apparently often means that battery was overheating. That was certainly not a case as I've used the View in my pretty cold apartment in CT- the device felt pretty cold in my hands.

1 hour of hectic, trying everything to revive the tablet. Eventually even the red light stopped blinking. Like a doctor who's about to loose a patient I plugged it to the computer and typed some random commands through fastboot (of course the tablet wasn't even in a fastboot- but at that point I was in a full panic mode and for my sanity I felt I had to try everything). Eventually I stopped and was just holding the tablet in my hands, still plugged in my computer and thinking- wow, I rooted/unlocked/flashed 5 different android devices so many times so far and often with crazy, long and complicated processes. Somehow I've never bricked any and now my tablet just completely died on me when I was reading a wikipedia page on it at my desk. I was about to put it down and go look for the warranty when suddenly the screen goes on and the htc logo appears. And then it booted right to the OS. And for the last few hours it works like nothing ever happened.

Anybody got a similar story? Any idea what could've happened?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crossover37:
I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus and it has AOKP build 25 with Fugomod kernel on it and this thing still is laggy. I tried many different roms and kernels and it still lags. I'm pretty sure my GSII was faster.

Some people say they have a buttery smooth Nexus and I'm jealous of you because mine feels like a 700mhz single core phone with 256mb of ram.

What's the deal? Why is it lagging (stock keyboard, browsing, app drawer, etc)

And I'm not trying to "bash". I want to keep the phone but the slowness is frustrating.

UPDATE 2/27/11 - I wiped my phone and flashed the Apex 1.02 Rom and now the phone is really fast. Some occasional hiccups but not a big deal.

I'm a very happy GN owner now. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
You're holding it wrong.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crossover37:
I accidentally posted it in a thread I was reading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aridon:
You are either doing it wrong or trolling. My guess is trolling.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crossover37:
So nobody can state their Galaxy Nexus is laggy? If so then you're a troll? I don't understand that logic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cablemike01:
I'm so sick of people comparing the galaxy nexus to the gs2. They are different classes of phones. The gs2 is running on a screen with a much lower resolution and an old version of android. If I take my PC which runs any game great on my 19" monitor and then connect it to my 46" HDTV the same games run laggy because my video card is working much harder to run the game at the higher resolution. Also if I play a game on windows xp and then play the same game on windows 7 the game tends to run slower because as operating systems evolve they tend to need more resources and also add new enhancements that add more strain on the hardware. I'm sure you can put android 4.0 on a HTC dream but will it run well? Not a chance because android 4.0 uses more juice then android 1.5 that the dream came with. I bet if you could install android 2.3 on the galaxy nexus it would fly like a bat out of hell.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crossover37:
Ok I get what you're saying but Google knew this so why didn't they add a more powerful GPU to handle these issues?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crossover37:
I'll try foxhound, thanks.

What's your reason for not using the latest 18.4 Franco Kernel and instead opting for the 14.4 version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmmarck:
Unsure about that poster's experience, but 18.4 is awesome for me, and so far synergises really well with CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aridon:
You said:

"Some people say they have a buttery smooth Nexus and I'm jealous of you because mine feels like a 700mhz single core phone with 256mb of ram."

That is so far outside the norm that you are either trolling, have a defective device or flashed and did something so screwed up that its messing with your device. So either:

1. Do a complete wipe, including formatting data, cache, dalvik and system. Install AOKP, gaaps with trinity kernel (basic one for all devices). Reboot. Download auto start manager and kill anything like maps or talk that you don't want running at startup. Go into settings and set cpu to 1.2, 400mhz with on demand or performance scaling. Set on boot checked. Reboot. Then tell me the phone is slow.

2. Don't use live wall paper. Most of them are not optimized for ICS

3. Return your device and get another one its broken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
My laptop is faster than your GSII.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cablemike01:
because google knows this is already powerful enough and the only place that it would make a difference is in benchmarks. Remember the nexus is the reference phone the developers are supposed to base their applications on. So in theory all app should run perfectly on all nexus devices. Basically any app made in 2012 should run perfectly on this phone. Think of it this way this is the minimum hardware requirements for apps and if a manufacturer goes beyond the specs its all gravy basically bragging rights but realistically this device has more than enough power to handle what google intended it for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudferret:
I'll play since I've recently made the jump as well and I think I'm coming in with an "unbiased" opinion. Keep in mind I'm much happier with my GN than I was with my I9100, which I'm also keeping at least until kernel source is released for ICS. Using CM9 on the Nexus and using CM9 on the SGSII, no comparison for me, Nexus wins, hands down as far as fluidity and feel goes, ignoring the fact that so many things still don't work on the SGSII.

There are ever so slight cpu and gpu advantages that I've noticed on the SGSII. Very occasionally might be felt as a lag or stutter. For the most part however I find the GN "smoother" over all. Alternative launchers (Nova) lag for me on the GN going in/out of the app drawer, but removing widgets from the app drawer cured that. I may have to wait an extra second, maybe two, for the desktop to be fully fluid following a boot. I've never experienced keyboard lag, or alike.

In the end however, I didn't buy the GN because I thought it would kill the SGSII performance wise and the specs didn't lead me to believe that would be the case. A couple of non-performance or Android related things I really appreciate are the feel of the phone in my hand, and the action of the buttons. What I used to jokingly refer to as the "panty liner shape" of the phone is comfortable in my pocket.

It might take some more kernel experimenting on your part to find one that feels good for you. When I was on AOKP I found Leankernel to be absolutely buttery. Slight cpu/gpu advantages aside, I feel that the GN is the better phone overall and it's still a bloody fast unit, and my next device will be a Nexus as well. I'd say 95% of the time the phone feels as fast, and potentially more fluid, than my old phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cablemike01:
So this year we're gonna have all these new quad core phones coming out which is great, but when the new version of android comes out we will get it right away and all those new quad core phones will be waiting up to a year to get it and by then the new version of android will be out yet again. You don't get a nexus phone for it's powerful processor look for it support and long term commitment. I had 5 android phones in the last year and I will never get anything other then a nexus because of all the stress I had trying to get updates for my other phones. My last phone the optimus 3 d was a very good phone butwe just got gingerbread a few weeks ago and lg is saying we will get ice cream sandwich in the third quarter f 2012. By then my nexus phone will probably have the new version of android. And I'm sure that lg will be dropping support for that phone because they'll have a new 1 out. But my nexus phone will most likely be supported through 2013.
