Hello in these days i having facing fast battery draining even in deeep sleep, but after some research i maybe found one solution its very simple:

1st: Charge your phone until 100%

2nd: Turn off and pull out the battery for 2 hours or more

3rd: Put Battery and Charge your phone again until 100%

4th: Remove battery wait half hour or more

5th: Put the battery again and charge the phone until 100%

6th: Repeat the process until when you put the battery the phone is charged at 100% or a little less when this happens make a battery calibration with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImNvbS5uZW1hLmJhdHRlcnljYWxpYnJhdGlvbiJd or a similar one, or in cwm wipe battery stats

Please if the post if repetead delete

Share your sucess or completly fail

For me works im about 1 hour with phone connected (deep sleep )and only drops 1 % before i made this "recalibration" my phone drops about 5 or 6 % in one hour after 12 hours almost all time in deep sleep a little time in wi-fi and one little call and only drops until 90%

For those who can't wait for Google to roll it out automatically, here's the new Play Store. The site where I got this says the changes are simply bug fixes but I did notice it looks a little different, like the font seems to match the new 4.2 roboto font. Try it out and correct me if I'm wrong. ;)

How to install:

Using root explorer, copy the file to /system/app after deleting the original Play Store app. Fix permissions then reboot. After rebooting, you might also want to clear the Play Store app data before using it for the first time. Initial impression is that it seems to be faster and more buttery than the previous versions. Download link below:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] treesurf:
Thanks! This new version definitely seems faster.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] leap_ahead:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] apatal:
Yep same here. Looks like they're rolling it out anyway.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] DJBhardwaj:
Thanks for sharing it here. It has now rolled out worldwide so everyone can update easily.

Apart from this, here is what comes new in Play Store 3.10.9.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] gregaste:
HI,

Since the last version of depuis kfgoogle Play, I Just can't DL Any app with it New neither New app nor updating my apps.

What I tried :

Reboot.

Forced close

Erase Personal data of the app

Google writes something about reconnecting gtalk in some "pb resolution", I tried that.

I even uninstall the updates down to thé market v2.x.x

Nothing good there neither.

The last version is back by itself with no amelioration

Every time I try to DL something, I get thé "New page" informing about starting DL, t'en in the notification bar appears "/!\ connection error"

I did had à Error code thé first few time, not any more.

I'm connected to m'y google account, I've no pb to send something to m'y phone from my desktop via thé Play Website.

I'm kind of lost here

Help ?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] gregaste:
Any help for my weird Problem ?

The new fact is that i CAN download some app with the good old market, when I uninstall all the updates.

But now, I've lost the list of my apps..., well, at least until I update them or something...

Ho.. And I sent a message to google, their solution was "RESET your phone".. not a such engineering .
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] confusedsam:
Any update?

@gregaste : Any update on your problem?

Been having the same issue. Jumped through all the hoops but to no avail. The guys at Google are not being helpful at all.

Weird bit is, apps do update over the carrier network if I trigger the update from the web instead of the Play store app.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anheuer:
Hey guys,..

I dont know what its actually called so i dont know how to search for it on the forums.

But you know when your phone is disabled or in lock screen, it can show you this overview of the time and missed calls and messages and battery status for a second?

Is there a setting to disable it?

I think its kinda annoying and it sometimes comes up when i try to unlock the screen which is even more annoying.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkiii:
You tried "Settings - Lock screen" ?

[Microsoft Surface] cmartinpe:
Hi everyone,

Do you know a Player for Windows RT that supports MKV files playback? I´ve been using VLC or even CineXPlayer for other platforms...

thanks in advance,

Carles.-
[Microsoft Surface] flocoon:
Unfortunately I think there are no MKV player available yet...

One way to do (while waiting for someone to develop/port one) would be to convert MKV to MP4 contener (ie only change the container and the convert the audio but keep the video in h264).
[Microsoft Surface] deeman:
All my movies are in mkv I would gladly pay for an app for playback would make the surface all most complete
[Microsoft Surface] hoodoomagic:
Use mkv2vob to make mkv video playable on the surface in a few seconds. Make sure "transcode dts" is checked in options since the surface can't decode dts audio. If space is an issue you can convert video with handbrake, the default iPad setting works well.
[Microsoft Surface] deeman:
Cheers will give that a try, some of my MKV have flac will this still work?
[Microsoft Surface] antmantucan:
A new app called YxPlayer RT was released in the Windows RT store that says can play .mkv's. I haven't tried it yet but I don't see any other options yet. YXPlayer has an app for android that has decent reviews.
[Microsoft Surface] nuprotocol:
*sigh* almost!!! At first it didn't work at all. I had to turn hardware acceleration off. Hard coded subtitles don't work/show up at all. Most .mkv's don't play at all. The ones that do play come through okay. I did Surface chat to get a full refund. The app isn't ready yet. However, if you have english speaking mkv, you may get away fine. I watch anime, and I need the hardcoded subtitles to show up. It's a bit overpriced in my book.
[Microsoft Surface] ctitanic:
I tried and it did not work for me neither.

Yxplayer works okish for me... but I had to turn off the hardware acceleration... and 1080 videos do not work at all! But overall its playing majority of my anime fine...!

Hopefully they will come out with some updates soon!
[Microsoft Surface] nuprotocol:
what about subs? or is your anime in english? none of my hard coded subs will show up.
[Microsoft Surface] mutunekk:
Some subs show up... others don't... its pretty 50/50!

[Microsoft Surface] mutunekk:
I guess ur asking about the surface? I really love this thing!! best tablet I have ever used... but it currently has a lot of issues (I would not recommend it yet) but I am betting in the next couple of months just like the mkv, they will be all fixed! and once they do that, this thing will be epic!!
[Microsoft Surface] hwcheng:
I know of a software Power DVD Mobile for Ultra that supports MKV playback, but you need to pay a fee to buy Power DVD Mobile first and then activate it. I haven't tried this yet and don't know how good it works. Nevertheless, a lite version of Power DVD used to be bundled along with many branded desktop/notebook computers.
[Microsoft Surface] nuprotocol:
Thanks! I meant the mkvsoftware. I received a refund from Microsoft. Didn't know if you were returning it as well.
[Microsoft Surface] dadian:
Multimedia 8 can Play MKV,and use subtitiles,you can Try:D
[Microsoft Surface] jivy26:
Tried the app and it won't even recognize MKV files. What are you doing to get them to play?
[Microsoft Surface] nuprotocol:
Same here. Can't even recognize mkvs...
[Microsoft Surface] deeman:
Same here my files don't even show up:confused:
[Microsoft Surface] masadav:
Yeah I haven't had much luck with this yet. I've got the web streaming stuff working fine with the flash hack, had no luck with mkv dlna playback :-/
[Microsoft Surface] binnym:
guys there is a new app in windows store called mobile.HD Media Player. This is able to play most of my mkv movies.... Only issue is that it cannot play files with dts audio track. but when u try to open such files u get an message saying that future updates will be able to play dts

This app is $2.45 but u can try before u buy it.
[Microsoft Surface] masadav:
PressPlay Video

Try PressPlay Video, noticed it in the store yesterday, have had some luck playing MKV with it, and it's free.
[Microsoft Surface] lemoon:
Some ways you could try:

The first one, MX video player, it can play avi and mkv video files extremely well.

Second are video converter such as handbrake or aneesoft, if you have 1080p MKV videos, I would suggest you to convert the 1080p videos to 720p videos first and then put them on your surface.
[Microsoft Surface] Jimm98y:
mobile.HD Medial Player works flawlessly so far - it is the first usable mkv player on Windows RT. Thanks!
[Microsoft Surface] lanwarrior:
MX video player is not in MS App Store, or am I missing something?
[Microsoft Surface] JJ-72:
mobile.HD Media Player works perfect for me! thanks for the tip!!
[Microsoft Surface] rilot:
Aye, same for me. Only a couple of my movies don't play but they are DTS so I was expecting it.

They say they are working on DTS decoding for a future update.
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
I haven't been able to test mobile.HD yet, but PressPlay* needs to pre-process MKV files before playback. It seems to only be a one-time thing, but still seems like it would be kind of annoying.

I'm hoping that mobile.HD is a better experience when I try it out this evening. However, it's already failed to open two separate test files that I found on the internet. (Both of which use AAC audio, which maybe isn't supported yet either?)

(*Make sure that you try the newest version of PressPlay if you want to test out MKV playback. I was ready to disagree with the person who suggested it, based on the past experience of it not working in an earlier version, but there's an update that adds experimental MKV support.)

Edit: So mobile.HD does seem to play a lot (but not all) of my MKV files that use Dolby Digital audio. I obviously didn't even bother testing any with DTS. It crashes on a file here or there (which is weird, because it was an SD file), but overall works pretty well.

However, another key component is that mobile.HD does NOT support DLNA Play To to the 360 for an MKV file, but PressPlay does. I think mobile.HD is really close to being perfect for me otherwise though (I prefer its interface as well.)

There is hope on the horizon. VLC is gonna make it's player for windows 8 and surface. If they can secure 40,000 on Kickstarter. If interested go to http://kck.st/U4mfxS

[Microsoft Surface] serotizm:
Mobile.hd is the best player fir RT.

But it seems subtitles don't work.

Did anyone got success with the subtitles?
[Microsoft Surface] masadav:
Yeah it's far from perfect, and takes forever to pre-process over the wireless.

Here's hoping for VLC (someone mentioned a kickstarter for it, but that's only for x86, ARM will come later.

"The initial release of VLC for Windows 8 will run on x86-based devices. Support for the ARM architecture will be added in a subsequent release, since this will involve further development work."
[Microsoft Surface] serotizm:
For the moment I'll continue to convert MKVs with Leawo converter.

I hope VLC or an update for Mobile.HD will come soon.
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
As mentioned by masadav, VLC is NOT coming soon. I mean, donate to the Kickstarter if you want, but don't do so with the expectation of playing MKV files on your Surface RT.

They say that they are going to work on a Windows 8 version (x86/x64 only) first, but then hopefully they'll be able to get a Windows RT / ARM version. On top of that, they're not sure that they will be allowed to put an app in the store with the API calls they use.

So it'll be a long while (if ever) before VLC comes to the Surface RT.

---------- Post added at 11:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 AM ----------

In the meantime, there's not really any reason to fully convert the MKVs. I mean, I'm not aware of the program that you're using, but it sounds like it does the very time-consuming process of transcoding the video.

Instead, use MKV2VOB, which will simply separate out the audio and video, if necessary convert the DTS audio to Dolby Digital, and then remultiplex into a container that the Surface can read out of the box. The process takes minutes for each file, instead of hours.
[Microsoft Surface] serotizm:
Thanks for the answer. Here my problem is subtitles. Converting is the only option to embed subtitles to a movie for the moment. There's no player which displays subtitles correctly.

PressPlay Video displays subtitles but it doesn't have encoding settings. So I can't use it :(

I hope an update to mobile.HD Player will come soon.
[Microsoft Surface] mutunekk:
mobile HD updated!!!

Mobile HD app got an update today... huge improvement with MKV support!
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Agreed. It no longer crashes on specific files that made it crash in the initial release, and it also is working to play the AAC audio stuff I initially had tested with. Still no DTS or PlayTo support, but when those come it'll be pretty much perfect for me. No subtitle support yet either, but that is generally not a concern for 99% of the content I play, it's just the rare movie that I'll watch that has subtitles.
[Microsoft Surface] ctitanic:
It looks promising. Still I could not stream from my media server. Only can play local files.

Sent from my Windows 8 device using Board Express Pro
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
It opens network shares on my WHS fine, whether they're added to my Windows Library, or if I open files manually.

Unless you mean UPnP streaming? I don't use that myself.
[Microsoft Surface] guitar1969:
Still can't get it to read an MKV. I guess all of mine have a DTS audio stream, and I am not going to reencode to a crippled audio stream for this program. hopefully the next update will sort it out. I have read that VLC is actively working on a player for RT, even though posts above say they are not.
[Microsoft Surface] kashk5:
Plex just released an app. Costs $2.99 but it streams MKV files perfectly. No issues with DTS audio.
[Microsoft Surface] ctitanic:
Yes, I was talking about UPNP.

Sent from my Windows 8 device using Board Express Pro
[Microsoft Surface] serotizm:
Does it support subtitles too?
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Plex only does streaming, from what I understand. So you would need to be on the same local network as a computer running their server or be using their paid internet streaming service (which still only gives your home server a connection over the internet) in order to play MKVs.

It's a non-starter for me, I want something that plays things locally, when I don't have a Wifi connection.
[Microsoft Surface] jverm:
Mobile.HD Media Player apparently plays MKV's. Its $2.49 USD on the windows store.
[Microsoft Surface] kashk5:
Yes, it's streaming only. However, the Internet streaming service (aka myPlex) is NOT a paid service. You can stream remotely with a free myPlex account. What you're referring to is the PlexPass, which is a paid service that gives you access to new features before they are rolled out to the public for free, in addition to a couple of other features.

I personally love Plex as I store all of my media on a central server, attach tons of metadata, and then I can stream that media on any device supported by Plex, from computers to mobile devices to streaming boxes like Roku.

Now for local playback, of course you would need an app like mobile.HD.
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Aah, I must've gotten confused between the two, sorry for the misinformation.
[Microsoft Surface] non1oson:
try potplayer. I used to use VLC on my pc, now I use potplayer, I've found it to more files and has more features. try it on windows 8. I think it's available.
[Microsoft Surface] guitar1969:
Plex is a streaming server for your network(i use it on my HTPC). You are coorrect that this does not solve the problem of playing local MKV files. I would also venture that streaming large MKVs will not result in smooth playback( I know this is an issue on my HTPC rig in my house) to TVs with wifi connections.
[Microsoft Surface] monica66:
I found a blog:

Enable Surface 2 to play 1080p/720p MKV-Watch MKV movies on Surface 2

on Google which may give you some hint. The best way is to convert MKV to Surface tablet supported file formats, such as H.264 MP4 via a third party program, like Brorsoft Video Converter.
[Microsoft Surface] Kunnievic:
As we all know, Microsoft Surface video formatis limited to H.264, H.263, Motion JPEG, MPEG-4(Part 2), WMV 3(WMV 9), XviD, DivX. Ifyou wanna watch more 1080p/720p movies like AVI, MKV, TiVo, VOB, MPG on your Surface RT or Pro Tablet, first you need to convert the videos to Microsoft Surface Tablet playable format like MP4 and then transfer them to your tablet for easy playback. Get a Video tool like Brorsoft Video Converter to help you.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazy_sunday:
Ok, let me explain :D

Since like an year ago I had this trouble with my Atrix, with ANY rom I tried I had really slow speed on downloads (back to the 56K modems era), from the Play Store and from the web, with WIFI and 3G... and REALLY low I/O performances (according to the benchmarks like Antutu)... and it was the same also with those roms that seemed to work smoothly on the phone (Epinter's CM10, NottachTrix...)

BUT

When from Epinter's I decided to try something "old fashioned" flashing the Neutrino 2.9 everything was amazing and okay :laugh:

Then I'm not asking you all the differences between the Neutrino and the other roms, but what could be the one that determinate this on my phone

Maybe a different files placement? I don't really know...I'd like to because Neutrino is a really great rom but I'd like to use the lapdock sometimes or try the new CM10s without restricted experience...

Hi all. I have a problem with an S5830 which was on 2.3.6 Stock+Root. It was network locked (even if with the code to check it said every lock was off), so I tried the factory reset solution listed here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9006090&postcount=1 using the code *2767*3855#. After the reboot my phone got stuck in a bootloop. I tried flashing with Odin many different fw, with and without data.rfs just to be sure it wasn't corrupted, but my phone just keep looping after the samsung logo.

Is there an easy way to fix it?

Thanks

Just in case it can be useful, more details:

1) After the Odin autoreboot it keeps lopping without even displaying the samsung logo (display just go on and off), but if i remove/insert battery and turn it on it loops after the samsung logo.

2) Download mode, Special download, and Ramdump mode works, but Recovery mode don't.
