I've installed MX video player but unfortunately we don't have OMX for ARMv6 so, only s/w decoding is possible.

I did the following settings-

1.OC to 480-691 conservative.

2.Open MX video player and go to settings>Decoder>check S/W decoder(local and network both) and color depth to 32 bits.

3.Added the line "video.accelerate.sw=1" to build.prop.

Got these results-

1.Tried 3 videos of resulution 320x480 @25FPS and they were perfect smooth on MX.

2.Tried 1 video of resolution 640x480 @24FPS and it was also perfectly smooth on MX.

3.Tried 1 video of resolution 640X480 @30FPS and it was also perfectly smooth on MX.

4.Tried 1 video of resolution 704X576 @24FPS and it was also perfectly smooth on MX.

5.Videos with 640X480 resolution and above were not smooth with stock gallery but were perfect with MX.

6.I was happy :p

Battery tweak-

My device on ICS gets a lot of wakelocks. I want to know that will adding the following lines to build.prop

"ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1" and "pm.sleep_mode=1" improve deep sleep ?

My questions-

1.Does the line video.accelerate.sw=1 has any effect ?

2.Can we also mod the youtube.apk to render using s/w only ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ashishv:
Can u tell which video format did u use for testing?cos only mp4 lags in software decoding,avi plays perfectly.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
I used mp4 only
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
I think that those battery tweaks are working well, I'm on cm9.1 flyme by hehappy and sleep wakelocks are minimized, drained only 4% in 8hrs while me and my phone were sleeping.. I got one day backup with moderate usage and still 40% is left, expected backup is above 40hrs :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Souron29:
I didn't know that videos played smooth even at S/W decoding!!!! I ll try this in ics miui and report back
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mike_24_11:
Battery runs same without any tweaks for me!! And it really has been the same for all the times I was on tweaks and without tweaks.. Tweaks have been proved to be Placebos!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
No tweaks can improve the battery life... The only thing those tweaks do is improve sleep. So, less battery is drained when phone is in sleep.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Syd_M:
Video quality is the only thing holding me back from using ICS on my O1. That's an interesting idea about modding the Youtube.apk to use s/w decoding; I hope someone takes up the challenge. HQ videos on ICS? Hell yeah. :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ikunalgautam:
Finally ! A new hope ...:beer:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
Not hope actually, modding the youtube.apk for this purpose imo looks impossible :rolleyes:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] BulazPieca:
Yes, but what about watching videos using browser and mx player? Is it possible?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
yes, that is possible if you uninstall youtube app and whenever you will play a video in browser, it should ask you to choose a player..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vikasb32:
No need to uninstall youtube just change user-agent to desktop.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] BulazPieca:
What browser do you use?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
stock ICS browser is excellent
[Optimus One, P500, V General] BulazPieca:
Unfortunately HQ YouTube videos still doesn't work. Video is playing, but quality is very bad.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rachitshah:
all videos work fine with s/w decoder but found that music plays 1st then the video performance is shown(both work at same time)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] BulazPieca:
I've got AOKP ROM created by william. Maybe it is the reason of bad quality, but I don't think so...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sarus_b:
@uman

If you are getting lot of wake locks then you should probably tick the "use 2g networks" options in mobile network settings.

I did the same thing and found that sleep improved. Maybe the rom/kernel is aggressive to search for 3g networks

Currently using cm9.1.1 by hephappy

And about the sw acceleration thing it improved things are only a little.

Videos encoded with h. 264 still lagged (just like stock rom) but they play smoothly on oxygen, cm7...

I have a hard time believing I'm the only person looking for CIFS support in CM10. Does anyone know of an alternative ROM with CIFS support? Samba doesn't really meet the needs. With CIFS, I can mount a network drive to a folder on my sdcard making the resources appear native. Good for streaming some videos and music.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbelos:
It's already there. If it's still not working, let us know what your steps are.

EDIT: CIFS support was added as of official nightly 0911. If you're running something else, that would be a problem.

it sounds like its one of the batteries that is just 2 x1700 without the chip that tells the phone it is double capacity, if you run it down to a low percent then turn off the phone take out the battery and replace it will show 50 % I dont know the whole story or technical reasons, but i have a Sino batt that does it, there is plenty written about it in this section somewhere

So what i have to do?

You can peel the label and it'll show the actual mah capacity.

The only thing you can do is return it. If you can't, than you'll have to chalk it up as a loss.

Its the battery, what i said before, its missing a circuit that tells the phone its a single battery and not 2x1700.

I have one that does the same and 2 that dont, best one I am using now is a yoobao from here, great batter no problems http://www.obostore.com/3500mah-yoobao-extended-battery-for-htc-evo-3d-p-2883.html

So if I reach 0% and then I reboot the phone I should have 100% again?

No probably 50% usually. If you take it down to 10% then reboot you should find 60%.. Roughly

High capacity battery sometimes has been reported wrong capacity by OS, especially battery made from unknown China manufacturers. Be careful when you use these kind of batt because it may harm your phone and you also (exploding...). Only use stock battery from HTC for you and your device safety.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] joonex:
I have extracted the chinese input from the offical rom. You need to be rooted. Copy the apk to the system/app folder then the .so to system/lib folder then reboot. It should work.

Because I cannot post links yet you need to use the qcode for download.

Hey guys,

I have been enjoying the blazing speeds of windows phone 7 on my HD2 but now, for personal reasons, i want to go back to NAND android.

Are these steps the right ones?

1. Task29

2. Install MAGLDR

3. Install CWM

4. Partition SD card for A2SD(it will wipe it too)

5. Install the .zip NAND android rom

Are these steps ok?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] d_3ger:
Utility task29 Resettable evidence of a BAD blocks in NAND memory, and as a result - after the OS Android you get a machine with a set of bugs - "not loaded", "reboot", etc.

To avoid this, you should stop using task29 all.

Since MAGLDR you have already installed, install CWM with the utility HD2Toolkit, format the sd-card and already install the. zip NAND android ROM.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Inhumanskills:
Yea I know, make fun of me. Tonight I was trying to install CM 9.0 for my i727.

I already had Clockwork and Odin installed, everything was working 100%

I decided to follow TeamChopsticks guide to get there.

Unfortunately CM was not installing after I did the "Format /system (mounts and storage->format /system)" step and I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I went into Odin hoping to just flash CM. I then saw that the only option was "PIT" and naive, stupid, tired me decided to do it.

I mean what could go wrong. I had titanium backup and everything.

Turns out I probably reformatted my internal mem to something my i727 can not use. Yay...

Now my phone won't go into download mode, it wont boot, actually it wont do anything.

I've spent the last 3 hours reading online on what to do. To my avail I found nothing. (I found QPST but it won't let me add "COM4" which my phone is on, so it's useless)

My phone is recognized by the computer as "QHSUSB_DLOAD" and Odin used to have it in COM4.

I really don't want to send my phone anywhere, I've had it since Christmas so it's not the newest, and upgrading to a SGSIII would be an option.

What should I do? What CAN I do?

Hopeless college guy here. =/

If you will tell att that you were upgrading from gingerbread to ics the update they told you to do using Samsung kies chances are they will replace it warranty or not. Tell them you followed the directions and the power blinked and now the phone does nothing. If you are a good customer with att and throw the right fit if need be then they will want to keep you happy. We had trouble with my daughters HTC phones and since we were what att considered exceptional customers they let us upgrade their phones for free a year early. So att will give in to keep you happy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Zero:
I wouldn't say that it was free! You paid for it. But I will agree that they will give you a new phone but believe me you're going to pay at least a hundred dollars for any route of a device exchange, even an in-store exchange. Just my personal experience with at&t insurance and repair or refurbished devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hechoen:
I gotta go with what gary said upthread. Last year my fiance killed her phone. She was a little less then a year into a two year contract at the time. Called up ATT to see what they could do. Since we always pay on time and have been with them for about five years they gave me a number for customer loyalty. I explained what happened and they offered me a phone for a penny. Not just some POS either. A refurbed HTC Vivid. So we got a FREE phone just for resigning to another year. ATT has always done right by me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Inhumanskills:
Thanks for all the feedback and advice. I will probably send my phone in to be JTAGed and then ill go an give it to my mom.

True, but you're talking about a phone that doesn't have gorilla glass. They gave me the same offer and I laughed in their faces and said, nice try haha. They sent me this "free" skyrocket to replace my broken captivate and charged me 100 for the insurance deductible fee. You, however are locked into another 2 year contract.... on top of the one you already have.

I'm unlocked and on tmobile all unlimited prepay for only 60 bucks. So you are paying a hefty price no matter how you choose to try and slice it.

I'm sure a contract is fine for you but I can't justify their prices.

I've tried restart, wipe cache/dalvik no luck. I've also tried switching to and from airplane mode to see if that reconnects it to the network. No such luck.

Then i did a fresh install of Collectives CP3 ROM and still not getting the connection.

I always wipe cache / data / dalvik and format system 3 times before flashing.

I talked to an At&t rep and they reset my data connection and deregistered to the network. No change.

When I first got my galaxy s3, telus said it would come with 4g lte. It worked well and on the top notification section, it specifically said, 4g lte. Now I'm trying out custom roms and such, and I downloaded CM10. However, on CM10, the icon no longer says 4g lte, but it says H+. When I revert back to my old rom, it says 4G (ONLY 4G, no LTE at the end). Can anyone tell me why my data connection has been demoted, or if it has been demoted at all? Should I just give Telus a call and ask whats up with this?

I have the same problem: I have ATT, since using custom ROM (TASK ROM) i have lost LTE, even though the APN settings are correct, the only way that i've have gotten LTE back is by going to the store and getting a NEW micro-SIM , then LTE works, and to answer your question, H+ is just HSDPA+ and 4G is LTE.
