IMEI

this recently happened to me over the weekend. I simply flashed back to stock KK4 and i had my IMEI number back to what its supposed to be. I never had to call AT&T to unblock it. once I got my IMEI back, I flashed a custom corn kernel and installed root. while I still had the original IMEI I downloaded an app called Galaxy S Unlock and in this app there is an option to back up only your efs folder and its contents. after making two back ups I decided to flash the latest Helly Bean from Der Teufel whilst leaving my SIM out. once all was said and done I still had my stock IMEI number with CM10 Helly Bean. the only number that I notice changed is the IMEI SV. it went from 00 at stock KK4 to 05 on cm10. I don't know what that number represents but it doesn't seem to affect me. good luck to anyone with this issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scythekain:
The "SV" is the Software version, it doesn't affect your IMEI (your device identifier).

Hi peeps i purchased a Samsung Galaxy S 2 Years ago via private sale, Last week it got blocked via 3 network so i ring them up.

first they go ring the police get a crime ref number, and we will unblock the phone as we have proof that you have been using the handset via your sim.

So i ring the police get a crime ref number i give it to 3 so a few days pass the police ring me saying that why would some one put a claim in 2 years later when there contract is about to finish

i go i dont know its a bit lame isn't it. she then goes i wont put in a crime report as it dont make sense so i go ok, so then i ring 3 back up 3 go the person you purchased the handset hasn't paid his bill thats why we have blocked the handset.

So i go what options have i got 3 go none so i was wondering has this happend to anyone else if so is there a way round this as 3 do have proof i been using the handset ?? Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beardedwonder:
This is why I'm always wary of buying second hand contract phones. I'm not sure there's much you can do, maybe sell it overseas, but that could be viewed as handling stolen goods.

Hope you can sort it out otherwise I guess you'll have a personal media player.

Was trying to set up a wifi hotspot but I can not get it to start.I keep getting not supported by Sim.Did AT&T block it in the ROM? I used to use it with the stock Rogers ROM all the time. Can anyone else try and see if it works for them.

Yeah doesn't work for me either says the same thing

I used to love that feature to be able to share the WIFI to friends with no Data and to connect to my Tablet! Guess will have to look for an app that can do it instead. Anyone know of any off hand?

Hi guys,

Is anyone able to play 720p videos smoothly with the GT-P7510 running ICS? cause no matter what player I use.

The 720p videos lag way too much, but with Android 3.2 never really had such issues as the same 720p videos used to play fine.

Does ICS take more resources than Honeycomb?

Obviously would like to stick with ICS due to its features, but if it takes more resources than Honeycomb, that it doesn't even allow me to play 720p videos smoothly, then I will have to consider going sticking to Honeycomb, but 1st need your advice.

Thanks in Advance

Anyone alive?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokpog:
Well, "720p videos" by itself simply isn't enough information to tell either way. What videos are you trying to watch (encoding, profile, bitrate) and which player do you use?

720p mp4s in standard h.264 high profile work just fine.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwazyivan:
Well.. to answer that, all my 720p videos have been downloaded from youtube using tubemate.

Also as I explained before, these same 720p videos, play absolutely smooth with Honeycomb, but not with ICS.

I even installed the [Kernel] - 2.6.36.4 - OC-VFPv3-d16_FP 1.4GHZ - Galaxy Tab 10.1 (07/11/12), Overclocked it to 1.4Ghz, which became slightly smoother but the video was still laggy and noticeable.

Due to this, I reverted back to Honeycomb, and now all the videos play smooth again.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kishorsidu:
Try flashing to jellybean

I had the same problem with honeycomb.now totally smooth and totally cool.

The problem is with the tegra 2 chip inside.

Now thats interesting, I have tubemate installed on my tablet that allows me to download any 720p videos from youtube, just do the same for a few videos, such as street fighter x tekken cinematic videos, also some music videos and test these please.

Let me know the results, and which rom, player and kernel you are using.

Thanks Mate, Much Appreciated
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jus1haz2:
I had problems playing 720p+ mkv in both honeycomb and ics until i tried BS player. I'm hoping VLC will eventually surpass all the other media players. MX player works for me with software decoding enabled and DICE player works as well, with Hardware Accel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akarshfrevr:
all these players can't play videos properly ......I would recommend u to convert video into mp4 or avi using formatfactory for

PC .....once converted copy to ur tab and play using mx player or v player or stock ...........the resolution and bitrate

adjustments make videos look lot smoother and plays without any hookups ......always use high bitrate as it makes video more sharper and also vivid...........if u are a pro in video converting then use mediacoder hq for pc

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nopnopnop:
This is happening to me too. Stock and Overcome Honeycomb, many H.264 videos play smoothly. Stock Samsung 4.0 and CM-9-2012-09-30, hardware acceleration is broken--either slow, or full of random misplaced blocks. These videos were specifically encoded for Tegra 2 devices. Let's pick an unobjectionable one:

mediainfo -f bun.mpg
Format : MPEG-4
File size : 292 MiB
Overall bit rate : 1 203 Kbps
Duration : 33mn 56s
Writing application : HandBrake 0.9.8 2012071800

So far, so good. Now for the video stream:

Format : AVC
Format profile : High@L3.1
Format settings : CABAC / 5 Ref Frames
Bit rate : 1 000 Kbps
Width : 1280
Height : 720
Frame rate mode : Variable
Minimum frame rate : 17.114 fps
Maximum frame rate : 29.970 fps
Writing library : x264 - core 120
Encoding settings : cabac=1 / ref=5 / deblock=1:1:1 / analyse=0x3:0x113 /
me=umh / subme=8 / psy=1 / psy_rd=0.40:0.00 / mixed_ref=1 /
me_range=16 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=1 / 8x8dct=1 / cqm=0 /
deadzone=21,11 / fast_pskip=1 / chroma_qp_offset=-2 / threads=6 /
sliced_threads=0 / nr=0 / decimate=1 / interlaced=0 / bluray_compat=0 /
constrained_intra=0 / bframes=6 / b_pyramid=2 / b_adapt=2 / b_bias=0 /
direct=1 / weightb=0 / open_gop=0 / weightp=0 / keyint=300 /
keyint_min=30 / scenecut=40 / intra_refresh=0 / rc_lookahead=50 /
rc=2pass / mbtree=1 / bitrate=1000 / ratetol=1.0 / qcomp=0.60 / qpmin=3 /
qpmax=69 / qpstep=4 / cplxblur=20.0 / qblur=0.5 / ip_ratio=1.40 / aq=1:0.60

You will note the weightp=0 and weightb=0.

So, no weighted prediction, bitrate below 2Mbps, Level 3.1. These are the specs Motorola gave for the Tegra 2 decode capabilities in the ATRIX 4G (and indeed the video plays fine there on CM 7.2 in HW+ mode in MX Player and BSPlayer.)

What may strike you as a little strong about this is ref=5 and bframes=6. (This is from the x264 tune=animation.) On the Tab 10.1 on ICS using MX Player or BSPlayer, the video in fact looks like intermediate frames are not being rendered correctly; flip to the menu and back and you get a bunch of black blocks being slid around by the motion compensation code. So I'm wondering if some amount of video texture resources (or something) got eaten up in the ICS accelerated drivers for the Tab 10.1, and nobody told the hardware engines. Perhaps 2D acceleration scribbles on the textures used for reference frames.

This is as annoying as hell. I knew when I bought a second Tegra 2 device I was going to have video problems, but I thought I had them all figured out. Unlike the ATRIX which gained capability when updated, the Tab 10.1 seems to have lost it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djangology:
Same problem on the 10.1V after the OTA update.

Where 3.2 played HQ youtube videos without any problem, 4.0.4 manages to destroy it. Un-believable.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nopnopnop:
After staring at this a while, I've noticed some problems back on 3.2 A few thoughts:

The items up there are the most suspicious to me.

2pass does a good job of saving up bits for the hard scenes. Peak bit rate could be a lot higher. When Motorola said 2Mbps, it's possible they implied a peak bit rate too.

Nothing except BSPlayer likes Variable Frame Rate very much, especially the aggressive way it gets used in some animation. I'd bet toggling between 24fps and 30fps would be OK. Stuff filmed at 25fps and mauled on the way to broadcast at 1080i 60 fields/sec drives HandBrake kinda crazy, and I can't say I blame it.

One particularly brutal thing seems to be heavily motion-vectored scenes. Those could also be ones with high use of bidirectional prediction and multiple reference frames, so a symptom, not a cause.

Where the symptom on 3.2 is slowness, 4.0 is just broken. It's possible 4.0 on the Tab 10.1 actually did improve frame rate, but bugs in the code made it unwatchable--and somebody flipped a switch to put it back in software mode in order to have *something* work.

Audio Issues

Hi all,

I am running CM10 4.1.1 Preview with Pershoots Kernel 2.6.36.4 on my Gt-7500

Before I upgraded, I was using the stock HC ROM that came on my tablet.

Using Ultimate media server on my PC, and Bubble UPNP and and Daroon player on the tablet, I was able to stream DVD's from my DVD-ROM via my WIFI to the tablet, and all was working quite well.

But ever since upgrading to CM10 experimental preview, there is no Audio playback on the video. I can play mp3's the same way no problem.

Does anyone have any idea as to the problem? Perhaps some audio codecs were left out?

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Randomly and habitually in the middle of the night, my S3 download the same message from the POP3 server again and again.

Example : I'll open the message, mark as read, and then next night the app checks for new e-mail, the message is back again as if I'd never opened it in the first place.I know, i can choose the option delete from server, but I dont want this. My desktop is in charge to delete from the server, not my phone or my tablet

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zipr:
Hello all --

I'm trying to check if a problem I'm having with my S3 is hardware or software (and see therefore if it's possible to fix.)

If you're running a custom ROM and have a car with Bluetooth and a stereo with an Aux in:

-Connect your phone to the stereo via the proper cable and start listening to music

-Turn on Bluetooth

Try to make a call (or receive one) via Bluetooth.

With the stock firmware, the music cuts off when a call comes in or goes out, but you can't hear the caller (and they can't hear you).

I'd like to know if this is the case with custom ROMs for the S3, or if it's a unique problem with the stock software.

Thanks for your help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zipr:
Can anyone confirm? Seems like a pretty common issue, but I can't get Samsung or Sprint to give an answer on whether it can be fixed or not...

Apps stay in memory but do not use cpu so they're not using anymore power. Task killer is just a running process that will continuously use cpu that will shutdown apps over and over again which'll use more and more cpu which uses more and more power.

hello, thankyou in advance for your help. im running synergy rom on my verizon s3. First custom Rom, and first time unlocking my phone so im really new to this. anyway i made a backup using clockwork mod of my stock rom and all its settings using cwm recovery and saved it to my computer. i also made a backup of this synergy rom. i was trying to put the backup of synergy onto my computer however it always gets stuck at "calculating time to complete" or something similar. i noticed (while comparing my synergy backup to my stock) that my old stock backup only has clockworkmod>backup>stockrom but no blobs. my new backup gets stuck at copying the blobs(i tried everyfolder individually to see what the problem was), i can copy the backup folder fine. is this my computer or is there something else i should of done to make a complete copy of cwm backup Rom(programs needed, ect.?). i read on some forum that you needed some shell script but i didnt find that on here which i trust more than the other site. my other question is what would happen if i did do a recovery in cwm of my original stock rom without my blobs?

thankyou and any help is appreciated.
