[Nexus 7 General] yazyazoo:
I am on 4.2.1 and tried to play some 720p and 1080p MKV with BSPlayer and DicePlayer which works great on my EvoLte phone. I just got this tablet yesterday and tried playing these videos and get stuttering like crazy. I also have HP touchpad with android and it plays smoothly.

I am doing it wirelessly via the LAN and Samba on these players on both the Nexus 7 and EvoLTE. The nexus can't play smoothly. Is it my wireless signal is better with EvoLte(5ghz band) or is it Tegra 3 can't handle MKV's. I have a Tegra 2 and it can't handle MKV's also.
[Nexus 7 General] sainthooligan:
Try using MX Player.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.ad&hl=en
[Nexus 7 General] TravelerNote:
JB 4.2.2 with MX Player Pro (+ codecs) no problems at all.
[Nexus 7 General] nec_d:
Same problem here...playing mkv with mxplayer over smb is stuttering. Gnex is playing fine although .
[Nexus 7 General] :
BSplayer

i have never had any issues with BSplayer stuttering.i use it on my nexus 7 as well as my galaxy tab 2 and have no issues.another good player is Archos Video player.just install the codecs with it.its nice.BSplayer though...best imo.
[Nexus 7 General] eksasol:
I recommend XBMC. Go to mirrors.xbmc.org, go to test-build and get the hardware accelerated build (feb 19), it can handle more codecs than MX Player.

Sent from XDA app
[Nexus 7 General] yazyazoo:
I will try XBMC with HW accel. I tried the regular XBMC and it was the worse.

The people who have it working smoothly are you doing it wirelessly? I am thinking that is the problem.

I think SMB might have made it bad because streaming with the N card in the Nexus 7 is slow. I think it's one stream N which is barely above G speeds. My EvoLte and Touchpad which have both 2.4 and 5ghz bands seem to play it smooth.

I tried MXPlayer using ES file explorer to find the file. It was better than BSPlayer and DicePlayer in playing.

I will try to put the file directly onto the memory but I only have 8gb which kind of limits what I can put.
[Nexus 7 General] Metallice:
Use ffmpeg plugin for mxplayer/diceplayer/archos if you are not. Also makes sure to use HW on dice and HW+ on MX.
[Nexus 7 General] marculous:
MX player all around goto video player on all my android devices for years now.
[Nexus 7 General] eksasol:
With XBMC hardware accel, both offline and streaming 1080p videos play smoothly. If you are paying the video from a flash drive connected through USB OTG it could be the problem due to the read speed.

You can also try VPlayer, it also have DLNA plug-in.
[Nexus 7 General] spawndk:
Archos videoplayer is the best videoplayer by far currently, build in SMB support, automatic covers, subtitles, etc, smooth hardware playback of 720p/1080p mkv on just about any device

I use it for all my devices, including Android TV sticks
[Nexus 7 General] cherryhunter:
You'd better transfer you MKV to .mp4 before you put it to your Tegra 3/2. I am using Pavtube Video Converter to do the conversion and I think the effect is very good.It can support to transfer any video format to the suitable format for your devices.Have a try of this and hope it can help you as well.:D
[HTC One X] Thebommer:
i have HTC one x which is rooted and unlocked boot loader but i checked for updates after i got it unlocked and rooted , there was a new update i downloaded it and tried to install when i restart the update should be installed but every time i click restart to update the device restarts but dose not install the updates instead the device boot into TWRP recovery screen, so my question is how can i install the official updates? or is there is a way to install them manually using TWRP Recovery screen?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Is your rom still stock ? (No apps deleted) then you need the stock recovery.

What software number are you on now

2.17, 3.14 or even higher ?
[HTC One X] Thebommer:
Yes im still on stock rom

my software numb is 3.14.401.31
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Flash this recovery back and try to update again

http://db.tt/C1SWP2ZJ
[HTC One X] Thebommer:
what would this file do exactly? will it relock the boot or unroot

sorry im new in all of this so basically i know nothing
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
No you need the stock recovery (HTC) because the custom recovery that we use to flash roms is not capable of handling official update files from htc.

This will not lock the bootloader, it will only replace the custom recovery so that you are able to install the OTA update.
[HTC One X] Thebommer:
worked and updated thanks for the help
[HTC One X] Thebommer:
BUT it unrooted the phone so i had to root it again, no biggie
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yeah thats normal ! But indeed no biggie....enjoy the day :)

If you are a fan of SPIGEN cases, you will definitely want to check out the Slim Armor. It offers much more protection than the Bounce and Ultra Fit, while remaining slim and pocketable. It features a dual layer design that includes an inner TPU layer and an outer hard shell. Consider it SPIGEN's version of the Otterbox Commuter. It is offered in five colors and runs about $25.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AVTR1337:
wow, thank you for the review.

awesome
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ap3604:
Such horses*** that they made the lip too small to provide any real protection for the phone if it falls on the front side.

WTF were they thinking? :mad:

Even though I got mine on a price error for $12.50 I'll probably just return it now...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ap3604:
I don't go through the inconvenience of a case to improve the grip of my phone. I use a case so that if I drop my phone it has side, back, AND FRONT protection so that the screen doesn't shatter... which the slim armor doesn't.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] AndroidFanNetwork:
Again, it's called the "Slim Armor" for a reason. It was designed to provide a decent level of protection while staying slim. It might not be the case for you, but that doesn't make it a bad case.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] geoldr:
Thanks for making this dude. Mine should be here tomorrow!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] YoungChrisG:
I just purchased their flip cover case in dark grey. It looks fantastic in photos. I can't wait to get it on my phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hiazn:
Yeah I preordered a white and a black weeks ago, looks like a nice case. Cant wait to get them
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] samdsox:
Just recieved mine in soul black. Great review
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] JayceOoi:
Can't wait to get it too. :laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dynamiks_nyc:
To anyone who received their Slim Armor already, are you having issues with the responsiveness of the volume rocker buttons and the power button? I saw in another thread on here, someone was having issues with their buttons, and now it has me worried since I ordered 2 of these cases.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] andro_bedaiwi:
I pre ordered 3 slim armor cases from Amazon and they ship it to me yesterday!

I read today that it has issues with volume buttons!

Is this true?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] theasylm:
They're a little mushy, but not bad. Haven't had it fail to recognize a keypress.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] andro_bedaiwi:
So you saying all the buttons working well with no issue?

What about when you put it in your pocket? Any problems?

Can you please upload a video?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] theasylm:
Yes, all buttons work fine. They feel pretty soft, no "clicky" feeling, but they haven't missed a press yet. I have also had no issues with buttons being pressed accidentally when put in my pocket or while riding in my pocket that I've noticed either.

I can try to film one later when my wife gets home with her S3 (so I'll have something to film with.

I have to say, one of the first things I noticed is a lack of lip. Mine is especially bad because I am using a Glas.T Slim screen protector, so there is essentially no lip at all, despite the claims on the image. Definitely one of the few downsides of this case, imo, with the other significant downside being that the polycarbonate shell, on the Soul Black variant at least, is a fingerprint magnet. Which is really unfortunate, considering the front side is very resistant from the Glas.T.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mezo91:
Does it get scratched? I want to get the white one but afraid it would get scratches and black marks/lines easily. Can you post pictures of its current status? Scratched or not and how many days used?
[HTC Rezound] torr310:
I have been flashed ROMs, kernels, and nanstores recently. Don't know why, my USB connection just stopped showing up when connect with non-stock USB cable. It did before. Now if I plug in non-stock USB cable, the phone only shows charging and can't find the storage on my computer. Does anybody know what cause this?
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
Uninstall/re-install the htc drivers in windows...

(assuming you are using windows...)
[HTC Rezound] torr310:

You need to download the BTU ROM from http://www.hotfile.com/dl/209462137/82c78b1/I9505XXUAMDM_I9505OXXAMDB_BTU.zip.html

And flash it with Odin

I want to know that to as the apps in the market don't work

Have you had any issues since updatong to btu ?

Does the handset status remain at official ?

Im on 3 handset and want to go to btu firmware completely
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skibadee:
Mine is now set to btu, I rebooted again after reloading from the factory reset and it changed in recovery. Kies now sees it as an upgradable firmware and im running the latest rom, which feels smoother. No problems so far :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancuk29:
So just to confirm

You loaded the firmware via odin

Factory reset

Reboot and your good to go on btu ?

Is that about it ? No rooting etc

Ii want rid of 3 firmware but don't want to void my warranty on case ... I presume if it's official firmware there is no issue

I always bought unlocked handsets and this is my first carrier handset for years
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skibadee:
Yes mate. That's all I did. AFAIK it doesn't void your warranty unless you root/use custom rom. I'm not sure if Samsung would even know if it was originally branded.

I'm waiting for chainfire to get back from his hols, once he's got Cf auto root sorted on MDM ROM I'll prob root then.

I only got mine from 3 as they were cheapest for sim free in stock. I refused to pay the 599 Argos and phones 4 u wanted. I had hoped they were still sending unbranded + unlocked but never mind.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancuk29:
So the csc changes automatically now on reboot ? I know that the csc changer app doesn't seem to work on mine but I think that's cos I only have the one on mine

Thanks for help so far
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skibadee:
The csc changer app didn't work for me either. Just flashed btu rom, factory reset, reboot, reboot again into recovery and it changed itself to btu :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancuk29:
Cool I'll have a bash . When you say reboot.into recovery is that download mode or just rebooting the phone

Does.the 3 bout screen go as well ?

Hi guys sorry I know this isn't exactly the correct thread but I have looked everywhere for the last 36hrs with absolutely no success! :crying: and this was as close a related thread that I'm allowed to post on (being a nood sucks!) and was made up of other UK handset owners...

Has any anyone confirmed a root on O2UK S4, or heard of anywhere confirming a root on O2 UK?? Been looking at " djrbliss 's MOTOCHOPPER " and " Chainfire 's CF-AutoRoot " but with no conformations on my firmware (haven't found a single UK confirmation yet for that matter), I am obviously a little hesitant. ...Additionally I plan to get rid of all the O2 junk, just like you guys, that pointlessly takes up space and annoys the crap out of me, but for now am working on NFC stuff that requires root access.

I too am on a I9505

Question before I flash as I've not done it yet

I've tried recovery mode .. power home and volume up

What does it actually do ? What should I be seeing ?

I got a blank screen with some.writing on the top.of it no menu or anything

Before I flash btu I just want to get everything straight in my head
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skibadee:
You should get a menu with options like wipe data/factory reset etc

Also comes up showing csc.

Try again hold volume up + home, finally power and hold. Let go when samsung logo appears. You should get a picture of an android first if I remember.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micah461:
Hi Team,

I had been happily using my rooted Kindle Fire 1 with the Go Launcher (yeah yeah I know) and mistakenly let the Kindle App update. That had rendered my Kindle books unreadable so I did a factory reset, and was going to re-root it and start over. I had done this successfully before.

Oddly, after the factory reset, FFF came up and Twrrp v2.2.2.1 came up. Previously Twrrp had been over written. I booted the Kindle OS and

did another factory reset. Same thing happened again, Twrrp came up. I went to the wipe screen and cleared the cache and the Dalvik. I must have hit the System button instead of the Factory Reset (at 51 I can't see anything clearly anymore!) and accidentally wiped the OS.

Now the Kindle stops at the logo and goes no further. I haven't been able to establish a connection to my PC through the cable.

Twrrp still runs and the blue FFF logo and menu still comes up.

I did review all of the unbricking threads and tried the KindleUnbrickV1.1 utility with no success. I can't establish contact with the Kindle.

Do I have a doorstop now?
