[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
If you look at the media info though it uses x264/h264 and AAC which i read should be playable along with the container MKV. Or is there something in there that can't be played?

Is anyone able to tell me what it is so i can avoid putting stuff like it on my phone to play?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] November13:
Hi10 bit is a rather "new" and "unknown" compression, so there you have your problem. I can't even play those on my computer. If you're able to, download another version. If not, wait for a player to support the compression system.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
Is hi10 something that must be decoded software or hardware wise?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russ18uk:
If it's too new (within the timeframe the S2 was developed), it won't have hardware support to decode. So you will have to use software or re-encode the video in Handbrake to something that you can decode with hardware support.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renren1403:
Thanks for the information.

In your opinion has S/W decodign ever been bad for you? Or slow for the S2?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russ18uk:
I have no issues playing an mp4-AVC 720p video in software using MoboPlayer.

[General Questions and Answers] pritimay106:
This may be a silly question.But I can't stop asking -What is the difference between 'GloftSDHP' and 'GloftSDHM' ?

Actually when I install BACK STAB V1.2.3 ,the sd file was named as

'GloftSDHP' but when I install BACK STAB V1.2.6 , another sd file was created named as 'GloftSDHM'.

Any one explain this Plz...THANX
[General Questions and Answers] chenaou:
I have the same question... I think that the GloftSDH"P" is the data but at a lower quality, and the GloftSDH"M" has a better quality, one is created with the "Backstab" and the other with the "Backstab HD"

My guess...:rolleyes:
[General Questions and Answers] CamoGeko:
HP is the normal quality version.

HM is the high def one.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
Hey Everyone,

I do this every now and then, wondering if everyone else does.

Let's say I'm using the phone one handed, web browsing or something and I need to reach a button on the opposite bottom corner.

Rather than stretch across the screen, I just rotate the phone 90 degrees for a second. The screen rotates, and the button is now directly under my thumb. I click it, rotate back and move on.

Yes, the Note still sucks sometimes as a one handed phone, but this does help out every now and then.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] david.huwyler:
oh thanks nice idea :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] an123:
another way is to curl your finger around the back of the phone...I did try this, and looks really funny if you're watching from afar :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LemonPowerForce:
I guess I just have big hands. The way I hold the phone, I can touch everything to the right of the blue line.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ddeath:
Ha.. same here. I've got big hands too. One overseas colleague once asked me if that is a S2 I'm holding. :p

If I'm holding the phone, you can only see 1/4 of it from the back. And only 1 cm separates my thumb to the closest finger when I hold it. :o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
This is particularly useful if you're reading in landscape.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] k!DDa:
another trick for zooming during browsing with the stock samsung browser is to simulate 2 fingers. usually you can zoom in and out by putting them on the screen and overturn the phone.

so instead of using to fingers, just put your thumb on the left side of the screen, so that a small part of your palm touches the screen on the right, which simulates an input^^

i hope u understood what i mean :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DPMAce:
I never hold my phone 1 handed. I'm too afraid of dropping it. But I'll try your advice if I ever need to
[Samsung Focus S] katamari201:
I didn't see a focus flash forum and it is very similar to the focus s internally so wanted to try posting here. I just got a focus flash from ebay as well as an unlock code and put my t-mobile sim in the phone. However, when I enter the code and tap enter, it says "sim error". I can cancel the unlock prompt and go to the metro ui, and there's a little sim icon with a lock on it. If I take out the sim card and restart, instead of the unlock prompt, I get a little box that says "sim error" and a message about missing or invalid sim. The little sim icon at the top has a little (/) instead of a lock. What could be the problem? It also says no network found in the cellular section of the settings.
[Samsung Focus S] bilal811:
same issue

i am having the exactly same issue with my focus flash, can any one help ?? and if the op user found out the solution please share
[Samsung Focus S] AnyMal:
How many times have you tried to enter the unlock code? Id used to be (and probably still true) that trying more then five times will lock your phone permanently. You should get back to the person who provided the code and inform them of the issue. Double check your IMEI number when you contact them. One wrong digit in IMEI will generate a wrong code.

[HTC One X] TheAndroidSwap:
Hey, probably a seriously newb question here, but I swear I did search:

My HOX I got from newegg.com says that my language is English (France), and it set all my defaults to Celsius, Kilometers, etc. So I'm assuming the ROM or some other setting is telling the phone I'm French.

Is there a way to change this? Is there even a stock rom for the tegra3 in the US?
[HTC One X] dragon546:
Do a Factory reset within settings storage.
[HTC One X] TheAndroidSwap:
I actually just used MoreLocale 2 to change the locale to English (United States). Should I still do a factory reset? What will a factory reset fix?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
For some reason, I really enjoy it when someone else asks me if I'm using the Note. I'm not talking about the 'Wow, that's a big phone' type of stuff stuff. Just a curious 'Is that the Note?' and I just go 'yeah!' enthusiastically and flash a big smile back.

Got it from a security guard today - was showing my e-ticket on the phone to the other guard.

It's no joke that I don't attract any attention when talking on the phone in public - I really wish I got more to be honest, so I could tell more people about it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] darkinners:
honestly, I feel really weird why would you feel this kind of pleasure when you receive recognition about you using Galaxy Note?

I love my Note but it's just not more than a tool, it does make my life easier , like what a good tool does.

it's like you feel really honorable when people give you recognition about you using a really good drill when you drilling hole

"hey sir, is your drill Bosch?"

"yes it is!"(oh stop it you :$)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ~~Tito~~:
I hate the common questions I get DAILY at work (Work at a cellphone shop, new people everyday...). The list is

"WHAT!? What is that thing a TV? WOW OH WOW"

"WHAT IS THAT? Is that a Tablet? WOW"

"Oh is that the new Galaxy(Common Speak :eek: )?"

"Oh wow the note? Can I see?"

"How does that fit in your pocket?"

"Woah, that thing is huge"

It goes on and on and I really am starting to get annoyed, just let me use my phone! hah.

Same here:

1) 60% of "You could beat someone to death with this brick"

2) 20% "It's too big, I would never use such a big phone"

3) 20% "It can't fit in your pocket" (while I'm slipping it out of my pocket easily)

Everybody who got forced to use it (like some people in my company) do all love it in the end. Even girls like it here in Switzerland: A girl i know and her mother just bought 2 SG-N7000 and both loving the screen size. And girls can fit it in their bags ;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] andreww88:
Some of my friends jokingly say, "where's your laptop?". I just laugh. I love this phone. As for the pocket "issue", it's not one for me. I typically put it in my back pocket, but it will fit in side pocket too.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CreepyDroid:
My friends always call it a TV and according to them I look so silly having a phone call with it. But I don't really care because someone who didnt used will never know how cool this phone is.

Besides, they don't know how silly THEY look with their tiny i****.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Preordained:
EVERYONE!

You tell those that ask/make fun about size that it's thin enough to fit in the front pocket.

This is true.

I've had it long enough(months) to be honest and say that truly... it is too big as a phone.

I speak PRACTICALITY for a phone,

it's too big. I've almost dropped it soo many times.

But, I Love It! The screen is in my face! Yeah! If the next iPhone is NOT 4" or more, I may get the 'Note' II.

Also, when ever I text/use a friend's smaller phone I say to myself, "yuke, what is this?!"

Yes, I cannot go back. Who can?!

And especially silly when they are watching videos on it. Then I whip out my Note and watch fantastic HD videos on it and I get dagger eyes staring at me. :D

And another funny thing is when my colleague keeps saying the Note is too big while he squints at his Iphone screen, reading only 5 lines of huge text. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
Being a one handed device, which the note is not good at, is really a different thing than being a phone, which the note is perfectly fine as
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] voyager_s:
I'll admit it was nice and fun at the beginning but now its kind of annoying. It still happens even after over 2 months of having the note.

Just random people will come up and ask is "is that a phone?" Or "is that the note?"

I get tired and a little bit fed up with repeating myself all the time to try and explain to them. I love my note tho. Its my big baby...haha
[HTC Rezound] JeramyEggs:
So I achieved s-off on my first try, and was feeling cocky. So, I downloaded Newt's new 4.0, with the patch for old firmware from Nil's Rom. I am writing this from my rezound now, but whenever I try to go back to chingy's gb Rom, it hangs at the 4g screen. I have tried to use the image the Rom produces, pm98img from another gingerbread Rom, incredikernal, and fast l

booting the boot.IMG file from said sources. What am I doing wrong? Besides messing with stuff I shouldn't. I thought going back to gingerbread would be simple if I stayed on old firmware. Does anyone know where to go from here? I can install Newt's xXx Rom and boot with no problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I fixed it by using the PH98IMG ruu, then using the juonutbear hboot patch. Then reloaded Amon Ra. Flashed Chingy's rom, then my back up. There was alot of drama in the middle of all that. Mostly caused by the user. I flashed so many different things, that i would have trouble telling you what i flashed to get back. I scoured xda for several hours before attempting to try this, and hours more before i asked for help. Thanks to those that helped.
[HTC Rezound] csong95:
easyy fix

the 2.1 is just a patch you need to do 2.0 first which is newtoroot rom then 2.1 for the patch and yes you do need to use the sense4_boot.img again
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
The old ROMs didn't contain firmware. So if you installed the ICS leak RUU then you have the new firmware and need to flash the "old firmware" patch. As far as kernels go, you should always flash the kernel that came with the ROM(except for GB ROMs where you can use incredikernel).

I think this will work for you. Backup your current ROM(if you want), then flash a GB RUU, then flash a GB ROM/kernel. Make a backup of that. Now you should have a GB firmware backup and an ICS firmware backup.
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
He was saying he just installed Newt's rom,but still on GB firmware. I think all you have to do is reflash Chingy's rom, but wipe first and then make sure your installing GB's kernel. I have had similar issues , where I had to install a rom with the stock kernel first before going back to custom kernels. So maybe install Scott's earlier GB rom first or Nil's GB business sense rom they both use the stock kernel.

Not sure why that seems to work, but for awhile I had the exact same issue going from ICS to GB and back. Only solution I ever found was to wipe a few times install a rom , then stock kernel.
[HTC Rezound] JeramyEggs:
Mjh got it right. I have back ups of both. whenever i try to go back to gingerbread now, i get stuck at the 4g splash. i have tried several gb kernels and still no dice. i think a ruu is in order. I have the exe RUU on my pc. It is taking forever for the PM98IMG Ruu to download. Can i run exe file on my S-off phone and then use recovery to load one of my older gb roms.S-off was easy compared to this. Thanks for any and all advice.
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
Yes, you can ruu , just remember if your on stock hboot you will have to relock and that will affect what your bootloader says. Otherwise, also make sure after the ruu to reflash amon ra recovery.

Did you try the stock ota kernel ?http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1476152

Try the GB kernel on this page and see if it works before RUUing.

Then you get no custom lock screen.

I'm in the same boat you are. I rooted my phone, but at least for the time being, I don't want to use a custom ROM. With that choice comes sacrifices. I'll likely never get a % battery mod or a custom lock screen. Life is full of choices.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] a1exus:
for me stability of my phone is very important and custom rom doesn't really give me that feeling just yet, there is always something issues going on...

back in the days the reason why i went w/ cm7 vs stock rom is because it was cleaner, now that I have ICS its pretty clean as it comes, developer puts in his own tweaks what he feels is important (may not be important to me) and with that comes some unstable/untested code which i'm not ready to do beta testing

so i'm fine w/ stock rom and i'm loving it, of course someone may not think this way and want to go w/ cm9 nightly or some other custom rom its up to this person (who am I to tell otherwise)

i just wanted to know if maybe i missed something and it can be done with stock rom, but apparently thats not the case (or at least doesn't seems so)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I think you might want to try out one of the custom roms first. I thought that too. But these roms seem to be a whole different level of professionally coded compared to the cm7 days. Aokp to start with, then expand if necessary to paradigm etc. I think you'll be surprised, you're getting stock stability with extras.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] TGOGTO:
Flashed this the other day. Very happy with the results, especially the improvements to the stock web browser...except it randomly hangs. IE: I can browse to several sites with no problem, then for no reason the browser will stop working. It doesn't crash or force stop, it just won't load the page. The status bar will get stuck like 1/4 of the way and stay there forever. All other internet conencted apps work fine, just the browser stops working. Even Dolphin browser works...it makes no sense. The only way to fix it is to reboot the tab. Then it will be fine for a little while and it will happen all over again.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] schotte:
I was having this problem and only had to close the browser in the recent apps list and then restart the browser and it was ok. Not perfect but workable.

This was on latest Megatron and kernel 16b, then I installed Guevnor 17c kernel last night and so far I am not having this problem but I havent used my TF that much. Lets hope that the problem is gone.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] TGOGTO:
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. Yeah, I tried removing the browser from the recent apps and it doesn't work. I believe one time I closed the browser, and went and messed with some other apps and came back to it a few minutes later and it worked...but that's not a workable solution lol! No other app loses it's internet connection. I've installed Dolphin HD but I prefer to use the stock browser since there are some compatibility issues with the Dolphin on sites like facebook.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] scottyf79:
Go into Settings>Apps and find the browser (it doesnt have to be in the "running" list) and hit "force stop"..........

should get you running without having to reboot. experience the same thing aswell.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kevhuff:
same issue for me every now and then. Advanced task killer in the quick apps is working for me plus its convenient having it right on the bottom of my screen at all times
[Eee Pad Transformer General] schotte:
I can confirm on mine with kernel 17c that it is giving me no problems - I also put my sdcard back in the dock because all other kernels I was having SOD with the sdcard, now it is working fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
This was the main reason I went back to the stock based ROMs, All the AOSP roms exhibited this issue for me. None of the kernels made any difference. I am using v22 on revolver now with no issues. Hopefully the AOSP build will figure this out soon.

Honetslty constantly task killing is not a good answer
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bkmo:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] scottyf79:
Try Gummy rom with ics browser+ (free on the market)rather than the stock browser........almost identical browser but better. And Gummy doesnt have any issues for fast browsing, its the fastest of Aosp roms out there - works well with Guevor 22.

Heres a link to the latest nightly 11/06/2012 Gummy Nightly

Flash the kernel straight after the rom then reboot before flashing Gapps

Well, I tried the few different recommendations here and nothing worked. Not only that, but even Dolphin and Chrome (which sucks anyway) would

become unresponsive and stop loading pages after a few minutes of use. Luckily those didn't require a full reboot to fix but it was still highly annoying to have to kill the browser and go back to whatever I was looking at....which was usually several clicks in to a page. I couldn't deal with it anymore. Flashed revolve 4.1.1 last night with guevors 22.6 kernel. No bubbles no troubles. i tried really hard to like megatron...but after months of dealing with this dumb issue I have moved on. : /
