+1 for MX Player

Sent from my Mobile :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Babis_ECE:
Right now I believe the best player is MX Player's latest edition.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro

Dice Player is also good, but MX player rocks. It's the only one for me that can play 720p .mkv video files (series mostly).
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpith.fbi:
yup...MX player did the trick..i watched two 1080p movies without any lag..well lil lag in b/w but nothing major :) Thanks guys for your response :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannyb0i:
BSPlayer?

Might wanna give BSPlayer a try - very similar to dice and mx but what I like about is that it automatically tries to fetch appropriate subs and that it actually works surprisingly well :)

Either way u can't really go wrong with these three.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister1:
Here is a question that's been on my mind. With WP8 dropping Zune and moving to XboX Music will us 7.8 users be stuck with Zune? Will we get XboX Music or some lame MP3 player? I know people say that all XboX Music is a re-branding of Zune but that is not so because XboX Music and the App Store will be seprate from eachother wheres Zune is intergated.I would like to hear comments, ideas and concepts weather possotive or negative.:good:
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeuroXT:
Since 7.8 is kind of a major upgrade, that is UI changes and hopefully includes a bit of WP8 features, I'd say there's a fat chance on this one since Microsoft wants a streamlined service across their devices.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
I would be quite shocked if Xbox Music and Zune Pass weren't the same on the back end. Zune (marketplace and pass) have existed since well before the WP7 Marketplace, or even before the Zune HD app "store". It is "integrated" into Marketplace on the phone only in the sense that the same UI is used to access both of them, but that doesn't really mean much - for example, near-identical UIs are used for Facebook messaging and SMS. As for authentication, all three of Zune services, Xbox services, and WP7 Marketplace are all tied to the same identifier: your Gamertag (Zune used to call it a Zune Tag, but it was just another name for the same thing). There's no reason to expect rebranding from Zune to Xbox is going to change anything; they'e already the same on the back end!

Anyone else's front facing camera really red?

I know there is a fix for the rear camera being so red. But my front camera is horrible and adjusting settings doesn't help at all.

Attached a pic to show you.

LOL you've been here since 2009,

Search ;)

http://xdaforums.com/search.php?searchid=37755909

If you did the Google Wallet fix, or your ROM has the google wallet fix, it is the cause.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
LOL you've been here since 2007? Read ;)

Adjusting the settings aren't helping. So unless you've seen a thread I haven't then we aren't talking about the REAR camera being red. We're talking about the FRONT camera. And adjusting the settings aren't helping.

But I get it, you read "Red" and "Camera" are done and think you know the answer.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] caspertodd:
Edit your build.prop back to its original state. You probably changed it to fix Google Wallet, right? Just change it back.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
What in all hell does the device model have to do with the camera?

Oh well I'll revert.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
Still red after returning to stock. Wondering if its not the camera hardware it self, it seems to be really choppy with motion too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
If all 3 entries in the build.prop (EVO, jewel, jewel) are back to norm then yeah, more than likely it's a hardware issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regalpimpin:
One of the entries still isn't correct. or you haven't rebooted after reverting to the stock build.prop?

I doubt its a hardware issue if you have done the build.prop mods.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
I've rebooted twice now, once with evo, jewel, jewel - once with all 3 jewel.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wytecaztle:
htc_jewel on all 3 build.props and you will be golden.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
Just tried, still fail.

Sorry for the Smart Ass replies earlier - having a bad friday. :(

Thanks guys.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
For Google Wallet yeah, not the front camera

As much agony as it would be, I'd wipe Google Wallet & do a Hard Reset just for giggles & even then, if nothing; I'd take it to a Sprint Repair Center & hopefully a replacement will follow.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] caspertodd:
I went through this EXACT same issue. Your picture looks just like mine. Did you back up your original build.prop?

Here is what I have, and it fixed this exact issue. Make the changes to the build.prop in the system folder, reboot, then go back in and verify that it is still there.

(Near the top)

ro.product.model=EVO

(About 4 pages down)

ro.product.model=htc_jewel

ro.product.name=jewel

By the way, after you do this, your Google Wallet will be broken again. Hope this helps. I understand about the bad Friday. Today has SUCKED here at my work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bighuta:
If you've done the build.prop edits for the google wallet fix correctly, you SHOULD have made a backup. Using the backup should fix it after a reboot.

Heh, I edited twice (missed the second model) over wrote my first back up. Oh well.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-BlueKnight:
Hi, I have a few questions about the Xperia Play.

::Information about my situation::

I have a no data T-Mobile plan.

I want an unlocked phone so i can just swap the SIM card into it.

I do not want to spend much more than $300 USD.

I'm interested in obtaining a new android phone to be used as a music player for 4-5 hours a day and has high emulator/game compatibility.

::Questions::

1. Are there any major problems with this phone?

2. What is the best model for unlocking the boot loader and using the many kernels and roms here (noticed a lot of you have the R800i)?

3. What would be the best place to buy one (currently looking at amazon.com)

Thanks
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akhomerun:
Before I start, no data T-Mobile plan? Have you checked out these options?

$30 T-Mobile Monthly 4G with 100MB unthrottled data, 100minutes, unlimited texting.

$45/month Straight Talk - Unlimited everything. Runs on AT&T network. You can get a SIM on their web site only. Actually, they have a T-Mobile version, too, in case you go with a T-Mobile phone (as far as the 3G frequencies go).

AT&T GoPhone - $25/month 250minutes, unlimited texting, then you can add a $15 data pack with something like 200MB, or $25/month for 1 GB. The GoPhone's data balances roll over. The minutes probably do, too, but I always ran out.

All these options will require the phone to be unlocked, which is usually how it comes on Amazon anyway.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipeknot:
Hi.

I've installed ICS - OPEN GERMANY on my Brazilian Galaxy Note. After update, the phone's screen color is pink.

Anybody know how can i solve this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alvinasnow:
No offense, but it sounds really weird. never heard of a screen going pink. May be related with some custom boot animation glitch. Have you tried to use CWM for a factory reset. Might solve you problem. though am not sure.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipeknot:
On Download mode, the screen colors are normal!

On First boot, the samsung boot logo colors are normal for 1 second, and turn pink again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alvinasnow:
All i can suggest that try to go back to a stable stock GB Rom (preferrably matching ur stock one) using Odin. Afterwards u can update to ICS, through kies. Alternatively Kriskelo and PA Roms are excellent, if you can follow instructions carefully. I guess you are experiencing a soft brick. Seniors, please correct me if i am wrong. Browse Forum for dealing with soft bricks and hopefully you will solve it.

Good luck:)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2k-inc:
Something interesting ... i have tried to flash the GB bootloader -> No change, color is still pink/red and darker, note boot up and works fine.

Now, i have trying to flash the stock GB Kernel to be exact, this one: KERNEL_N7000XXLA3_CL880036_REV02_eng_mid_noship.tar

The note boot up and hang at the Samsung screen, but the color is still perfect white ... so there is something on the new ICS Kernel that render some screen with pink/red tint.

I don't have knowledge to poke around the kernel, hope some genius can figure out what was changing? maybe the video driver?

Can you explain why?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Ditbardh:
you flash xxkpe two times beacause to have clean xxkpe firmware its more succesfully, and than u flash ddlf2 via odin as pda and thats it, flashed it yesterday and i can say that this i the best rom that i had with bam kernel cf rooted ext4 rocks!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Taxman.:
If you flash KPE only once some issues may appear. For example, you may encounter a black image when you open the camera app. This is solved by flashing KPE twice.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chriz74:
Well, but what's the point in this? If you flash a new one the old one will be erased.

And what does kies do? I don't think it will flash xxkpe two times and then upgrade you to ddlf2, so?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] fornix:
It is better than XXLE4! I used XXLE4 and now flashed to DDLF2. There are a few changes like the swype keyboard which is included is different. (At least looks different). Also, whenever a call arrives, the screen where you answer it is revamped in DDLF2. Instead of rounded rectangles for Accept and Reject which is standard android, you have circular accept and reject buttons. There might be other changes. This is what I observed.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
Just a random thought, not sure if I should have started a new thread on this.

I'm presently on miui 2.6.22 or RemICS(switching) and wanted to try this new value pack.

I have a nandroid backup of my stock firmware DDKP2, and would love to restore the same data onto the lf2.

Should I flash kpe twice>lf2>cf root> restore data partition from nandroid

Or directly flash lf2 here.

I am on dhiru's cm9a8 with vurrut kernal. Can I directly flash the zip from recovery or need to use PC Odin for ddkpe->ddkpe->cfroot-lf->bam kernal.

Also can some one plz tell will it be worth downgrading from ics alpha to stock. I m happy with that but minor lags, gpu performance suggests me to downgrade.

Can any one give a link to latest kpe ,pit and latest cfroot with fix and any other file required. I will be very greatful if someone can guide how to downgrade to this value pack and can upgrade back to ics if required..

Sent from my SL powered by Dhiru's cm9a8 and vurrut kernal.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] alexecus:
I tried both but I feel that CM9 is much smoother compare to the value pack... If you need your phone for video recording then I suggest you do a downgrade...

And by the way.. Its "kernel" not "kernal"...:D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Gahlawat:
:-) thanks buddy for pointing mistake :-P and a great suggestion .. I will continue to use cm9. Video rec. and other bugs are about to be fixed as soon as KERNEL 3.x releases.

All stock ROMs here: [xdaforums.com]. XXKPE zip includes latona.pit.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Gahlawat:
Thnks buddy, in developers forum for sl i found a post which tells that direct flashing can be done but installing after kpe is the preferred way. Still it need to be verified by an expert or experienced person.

I love the blue cm9 and a lot nice features of cm9 and most probably i need to come back to cm9 after checking ddlf2.

So a nandroid restore is all i need or something else would be needed to come back to my favt. Cm9??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Well yes, but flash the kernel you made the backup ith before restoring to have an almost guarantee restore.

My phone is working fine but every time when there is data flowing, the network connection cycles from 3G to HSPA to HSPA+, then go back to HSPA, but the speed never be interrupted. Is this a design for the phone or this is actually defect? Flashing modem will solve this issue or not? Please advise. :(

It actually means your connection quality a bit like signal strength, which is perfectly normal under different environment.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DKNUCKLES:
My phone has been prompting me to install 4.0.4 update as of late. I was running a stock 4.0.4 flash w/ root and about 2 weeks after installing it via CWM it prompted me to install. The installation failed so I yanked the battery and it successfully booted back into the phone. After this it won't prompt again until after the phone is rebooted again.

I just flashed to the 4.1 Jelly Bean release figuring that would alleviate the problem and it still exists. My phone is constantly telling me to update the phone (even though now a 4.0.4 "upgrade" would infact me a downgrade). This is driving me crazy...is there any way to stop this from happening?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Let me guess, you are running a custom ROM?

This will fix it: edit the line that starts with ro.build.fingerprint in your build.prop file to read like this:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android 4.9 Marshmallow:
Hi People

I am new to the world of custom rom. I just rooted my phone and i am looking into proceeding with installing ICS through a custom rom.

After some research i have narrowed it dow to two choices.

Paranoid Android vs. KingDroid NoteMania

Paranoid Android is fascinating but after correspondence with a member from here he has told me that:

Is that true?

About KingDroid now i have nothing to report or ask. It looks perfect, except for the fact that it doesn't have tablet mode which i really want to get the feel of.

Now some general questions.

I have heard that custom roms have minor but frustrating glitches in various things.

I was wondering what i should expect...?

Anything other noteworthy that i might need in order to make an informed decision?

Ps. Right now i have a problem with my Note. It breaks off deep sleep spontaneously as if awakening from a bad dream.

Will a custom Rom fix that? Will it bring me other nightmares?

What is your experience with these two roms?

Thank you in advance people.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotaphone:
I suggest you go throughout the respective post in the development section. For PA, it is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1662802

Start at posts after June 27, then you skip problems of previous versions.

I went through almost everything and it appears there are hardly any issues. I personally do not have any, except that I have not yet figured out how to change the sort order for my movies in the Gallery app; it appears it always sorts by file date or so. Anyway, off topic and not really a bug I guess.

PA is quite unique in the sense that you can have phone mode and tablet mode apps simultaneously. I like that. On ICS, I was very disappointed about the email app. In PA, this is simply great.

To install PA, you go back to GB or any other safe kernel, hence there is no emmc issue as someone suggested to you. PA itself uses a safe kernel of CM9, so no issues here either.

About Kingdroid, no idea. I will stick with PA as it fits my needs.

I suggest that's exactly what you should do: try for yourself to see does it fit. It's like with shoes. Asking someone else whether they fit is pointless...

Just try all the roms out here.

Only after you have tested a few roms can you tell which one suits your needs.

I've tried almost all of them here in xda: Rocket Rom, Kingdroid, Asylum, AOKP, ParanoidAndroid, Ganbarou, Cassie's, AllianceRom, LiquidSmooth, Criskelo, Chrack. Although CM9/AOSP/AOKP roms have a million possibilities of customization i found that tw based roms suit my needs better. After many flashes i'm currently on AllianceRom which i think it's the best for me, smooth, customizable, stable.

Well before i used to use DarkyRom (for NOTE is alliance ). Gnex was with paranoid android.

But for me know for the first time one question crossed my mind. Do I really need to avoid TW for example and the benefits I have and love from use of S-PEN.

So I am now looking for a good Stock rooted ROM. not AOSP or AOKP anymore.

I am loosing too much with them. And I need NOTE mostly for business so my choice is obvious.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msedek:
Clear answers to clear questions.. It only depends on your own likes.. Try both and see..

PA its as safe as any other safe rom as it uses cm9 kernels (well known to be safe) Also Kindroid its safe because they use a safe kernels in aroma installer...

And Kindroid DOES have tablet mode just it does not support any kind of touchwiz ui they use apex launcher (aosp looks like launcher) for this mode
