Have xbmc android running on many of my android devices but having issues with my galaxy s3 (d2vzw) on stock rooted 4.1.2. Most of the builds that I can think of cause a flickering or strobing of the image being played on the sides/black crop bar area. The actual video plays fine but the black bar area on sd content for example freaks out. Anyone know of a fix, or a hwa build that resolves this issue? One that does not use an external player preferably.

[Android Apps and Games] IamLugo:
Tried those builds too. Everything works fine even hwa, except for the issue with the cropped area on the sides and top/bottom like ther others. Messing around I found that rotating the phone temporarily fixes it but comes back once you open any menus. That's not ideal especially when connected to my hdtv. Looking for a permanent fix. Guess I'll skim those 44 pages in that thread to see if there is a solution. Thanks for your help

Update:

Well messed around some more, and found a solution to my problem this issue for the time being by switching to CM10.1 M2 3/4 build. Maybe its an issue with TW, not sure. But I ran the same hwa builds as I was running before and the problems with the flickering/strobing of images on the black areas/crop bars are gone. Doesn't hurt either that CM10.1 is a lot more stable now. So this is just a heads up to anyone who's had the same issues as me.

Not that I am aware of. Another user pined the EOS ROM developer about XBMC but I've not heard anything back beyond "he thinks it's related to lenaro optimizations". Given I don't have a XOOM and am unfamiliar with what is being done on the hardware I don't think I'm going to be the one to find or solve the underlying problem...

official gotham alpha working on xperia play

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Development_builds

Tried Gotham alpha 1 official for laughs and it works pretty well. It has a problem I've seen on some of the builds from here I've got to kind of work, where the interface is not very responsive to touch. Ironically, it seems worse with the touched skin than with the base skin... The touched skin isn't really that amazing on a small display anyway, unfortunately.
[Android Apps and Games] u50r:
Havent tried Gotham but as far as skins go I've found re-touched is a much nicer skin the touched, highly recommend it.
[Android Apps and Games] drinkypoo:
I'll give that a try if I can track it down. I've also seen some references to a skin called Joggler which is designed for touch devices, but I haven't tried that either.

Frodo is the version of XBMC for android.

You can get it in this thread, in oficial XBMC site or other foruns... works well with almost all addons of xbmc that you use in windows or other systems...
[Android Apps and Games] u50r:
Ok New problem, I uninstalled my XBMC XAF build and installed the "Frodo" build from xbmc and now the 1 channel add-on doesnt work, when I try to install it says "Dependencies not met" also no skins show up when I search for skins, even with the repository installed from fusion I dont see any skins. How can I fix this?

Edit: So I went through and force refreshed everything I could force refresh and well that froze everything up but after a couple restarts it seems to be working properly now, fingers crossed.
[Android Apps and Games] u50r:
Well I tried Sio2 and I gotta be honest, its a broken mess, didnt work at all with my remote, the icons were un-responsive, there was a menu in the middle that would constantly pop up if I moved the cursor near the middle of the screen and beside the home screen I found the other screens to be very um-attractive and just plain ugly.

I've tried just about every skin now and Re-Touched is by far the nicest IMHO, it works 100% with Frodo, its fast, its clean and it looks nice, I wish the home screen had more customization options allowing you to place your own icons but oh well.
[Android Apps and Games] mcord11758:
I guess it depends on the device. The skin is light weight and simple so that devices with lower power can handle. I have never had issue with remote or touch response. Ive used it on my android device and my raspberry pi. That being said if it is not for you then it is not for you.

I am not sure there is a true touch skin that allows allot of home screen modifications

[Android Apps and Games] u50r:
It just completely bombed on mine, but then so did several of the other skins so mayby they just dont like the remote pointing device, Re-Touched is really nice tough and its the one I would choose anyways, if Sio2 didnt have such ugly menus and screens and didnt go all haywire I would use it because I like the home screen, I dunno maybe it looks OK on a small screen but on a TV not so much.

You wouldnt happen to know much about the xbmc video player would you? When I had the XAF build installed it used MX Player which ran nice but the video quality wasnt all that great, with Frodo it runs the internal player and while the quality is nicer it likes to jump and stutter, especially when the camera pans, is there any way to fix this? Is there a way to force hardware decoding or tweak it so it runs smoother? Or is there an external player that is superior?

I tried asking some questions on xbmcandroid but no one there seems to respond, are there any other xbmc communities where people actually help?
[Android Apps and Games] mr.haket:
thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
MX Player has a number of knobs you can tune in order to get better performance / quality out of it. The internal player does not have hardware decoding available yet. There is an expirimental build on forum.xbmc.org that uses libstagefright for hardware decoding but it may only run on some of the more recent versions of android.

There are a number of external players that can function as an alternative to MX Player. If you look at the playercorefactory.xml file that the XAF build puts in the user folder (link to file) it defines a number of players that people have reported some amount of success with. Of the players defined in that file tplayer and wondershare seem to be very popular next to MX Player.

There are only so many hours in the day for us to respond. We try to keep up on the posts but it can be difficult with a day job, programming as a hobby and other "real world" items.

There are a few forums out there, but be mindful of the forum rules. Some add-ons and items cannot be discussed on some of the forum sites. For example any add-on released by xbmchub and any of the XAF android releases cannot and should not be discussed on the official XBMC forums.
[Android Apps and Games] u50r:
Well I'm runing Frodo now, I think I'd like to keep to it as it seems to perform a bit better over all, does frodo work with external players as well? If so, is there one you can recommend? Also my android device is running ICS, would that work for the experimental build?

I do appreciate the help, XBMC has a pretty high barrier for entry and alot of the time it feels like you just have to know how to do stuff, for years I ignored it completely because the whole thing just made no sense but finally took the time (a lot of time lol) to figure everything out and its actually pretty good, though I'd really like to make my own skin as I haven't found one that fully satisfies yet.
[Android Apps and Games] u50r:
Well I've played with it more and the xbmc player is definitely not working right for me, every second or so the video speeds up or skips some frames or something for a fraction of a second, so it will be going normal then jump forward then normal then jump forward, I dont know if its not keeping up with the uadio and speending it up to catch up or what but its really annoying.
[Android Apps and Games] drinkypoo:
What happened to builds?

I'm not complaining, I'm getting my money's worth ;) I'm just curious. I can't (easily) find information on it on xbmc's site either, but their nightlies seem to have stopped so I'm thinking there's a deeper problem occurring?
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
The official nightly builds should include external player support, it is not present in Frodo 12.0. Not sure if this was included in their 12.1 release, but the code should be in the mainline nightlies at this point.

If you want to use an external player I'd recommend heading over to xbmcandroid.com/forums and going through some of the external player threads there. It has been discussed there in much more detail.

I have noticed that whenever i play heavy 3d games, my cpu only runs at 800 mhz..even though the scaling is from 200-1200 mhz. First i thought it was a problem with a specific game(The dark knight rises), but now i tried Mass effect infiltrator too..same thing happens..

I wouldnt have bothered too much but i get some fps drops..i expect 'smooth as a butter' experience from S2..which i aint getting..while playing 3d games..

Some one might argue that maybe the game requires only 800 mhz to run..but i seriously doubt it..in 3d applications(heavy) , the processor should be used at higher frequencies. Also, i tried scaling my cpu from 1000-1200 mhz, but still while playing games, the cpu goes back to 800 mhz lol..

Please someone explain this and also Try it on your device..do u notice the same results while playing a heavy 3d game?

I tried running stock kernel as well as siyah 3.3.2. getting same results on both.. tried different governers too..but same thing

I am on neatlite rom currently..could it be the rom thats the culprit?

Please someone do help me, i am getting frustrated with my S2 lol..

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
for ur 'Smooth as Butter' experience with 3d gaming, i would suggest u to flash a stock official ICS firmware and then see for the same:)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviral1990:
If you noticed my post properly...i did try scaling from 1000-1200..but still the processor goes down to 800 mhz...

It only happens with heavy 3d games( which ironically require the processor the most)

2d games run at 1200 mhz but not the 3d ones lol..:|
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimateAnas:
Sorry! Try using chainfire's 3D app for the S2, install the drivers and see what happens then?

If I helped you press thanks! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksilver89:
It could be due to smooth scaling setting bug from earlier siyah kernel, or throttling due to cpu temperature.

Try flash the latest siyah kernel and set smooth scaling level to 1200mhz.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviral1990:
i have set smooth scaling to 1200 mhz.. and yeh i guess it could be the throtling issue but why is it happening? :(

I mean i can run a 2d game like mutant roadkill on 1200mhz but when i try to run heavy 3d games..they just run at 800 mhz..

I did read bout this throttling issue to 800mhz but what can i do to avoid it? The phone doesnt get too hot either though..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkc1976:
Hi I'm running at 1600mhz on my galaxy note (stock is 1400) everything is running damn fast thumbs up.... But every single time I load a game which contains heavy 3d graphics then it goes down to 800mhz I just can't find a solution. Anyway running smoothly at 1600 just as long I don't play games.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saywhatt:
wrong thread and wrong forum my friend :D:D this is for s2

also, perhaps you should use setCPU to check some clock settings
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakicamm:
I just tried infiltrator, and my device uses highest 1200mhz normally, so i guess it must be kernel/rom related. I'm running rr 2.6.1 with latest dorimanx 5.67 kernel. It might be something about neat rom that prevents your device from using max clock, since neat rom is very battery friendly, but i'm not sure... would be nice if someone using the same rom as you could try and confirm.

Hi, I had the excact same problem, but camera app fc or took the pictures a long time after I had actually pressed the camera button (or the pictures didnt even got saved to the SD card).

I recently rebooted into recovery mode and there wiped dalvik cache and cache partition several times. When I booted up it was definitly working better.

You should think about removing some apps though if u have many installed.

How is Holo Launcher working for you after a reboot? Is it there or do u have to set it to the default launcher first to get it back?

Yesterday, Entropy512 said:

I don’t want any details, but after reading all the threads, information from Ken Sumrall and posts on Samsung official support forums, I think that they don’t want to admit, that there’s a problem with their eMMC chips. I know that it is almost impossible to recreate brickbug situation on stock devices - so there is no problem for Samsung at all (custom rom - not their problem) .

I just don’t know what to think – Samsung is currently Rolling-out the Official ICS 4.0.4 Update for Galaxy S2 and we all know, that each of them contains unsecure kernel (all they need to do is disable emmc_cap_erase, right? )

I may be wrong, maybe fix is a lot more complex than just disabling emmc_cap_erase in kernel, but this is the difference between secure and unsecure kernel…so why they didn’t ? Everyone knows about eMMC bug, but Samsung is rolling out new updates and don’t care…
