Ah glad you got it to work finally. Yes the router can play a part in it, however if you are happy with your wifi setup otherwise (stability, range etc) I would not change the router just for this. There is no guarantee that a different router may indeed play your file without hiccups. It may also be that the tablet wifi is not up to the task of streaming the movies, but this is just an assumption on my part.

The cheapest solution, while not the most comfortable one, would be to use an OTG cable and a nice 64GB USB stick and just fill that with movies when you want to watch them. Maybe you can find more info on the net regarding streaming and wifi issues and solutions, but be ready to drop some cash for those routers.

I have the same router type N, cheap one that came free from my ISP, talktalk, and exactly the same issues when trying to play through network. I know that when trying to copy something through LAN from my PC to my tablet via ES File Explorer, it only downloads at 300KB/s, which is slower then when I download something off the internet at 1.8MB/s (which is the maximum I get from my ISP) so this leads me to believe that the problem isn't the router, because it can download fast enough for 1080p (maybe not fast enough for that "birds" test at 40mbps, though) this leaves the protocol that android uses to talk to windows PC, the Samba share or something like that.

Do you use windows as well? I'm thinking of trying to stream through a linux share, see how that goes.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Animor:
I also use Windows - I've defined a user with password on windows and I connect to the workgroup on my pc with it. Perhaps you are right and this is the issue. Please update if you find a faster way to stream.

What if we use an external hdd which will connect to the router? You think it might help?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bv90andy:
Hey, I've made some good progress.

I downloaded an app called MediaHouse UPnP / DLNA Browser from app store and a uPnP server (I used XBMC - all I had to do to set it up after installing it was to add my movies folder under videos and then go into system>settings>services>uPnP and select share video and libraries trough UPnP) and that's it. Then I just open MediaHouse on my Nexus 10 (leave xbmc in background on pc) and browse my files... It works much better then the normal share: I can play movies that I couldn't play before with MX Player and play them using HW+ decoder. The "Birds" demo isn't great but it's much better, I had the best results using bs player, but still a bit laggy, but since you say your videos aren't quite that high in bitrate, maybe you'll get lucky.

I hope this helps. Bye
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Animor:
Thank you, this is indeed a very good progress. I was able to play 1080p movies!

Only problem is I can't stream .srt subtitles files along with the movie. The srt file is at the same directory of the movie. XMBC on my pc plays the subtitles, but on my N10 using MediaHouse, it's just being ignored.

Any advice?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bv90andy:
OK, apparently uPnP doesn't support subtitles, but I have been able to copy the sub file over, normally, using ES file explorer and then, after you load the movie via mediahouse, in mx player you can click on menu>subtitles>open and select the file from your local storage where you saved it.

I hope this works.

Don't forget to click the thanks button ;)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Animor:
Thank you. This is not so comfortable, but I guess it should work.

I have posted a question to the author of mediaHouse, perhaps there is a more elegant solution...

Here is an alternate OTG solution that I use for HD content of all types.(OTG USB Gigabit Ethernet adapter). Just a thought. Note that the drivers for this adapter are in the stock ROM.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Animor:
I've found another solution:

Using MKVmerge, you can easily merge mkv and srt file. It takes only 2-3 minutes for a movie. Output file is mkv file with embedded subtitles. I've checked it and MX player shows the subtitles just fine via MediaHouse.

Download from here.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi!

It took a while but I read the whole thread! I'm happy that you mostly solved your issue, about the Wi-Fi issue it's caused by your LAN speed, I use my old Xoom as media server here, sometimes it becomes really laggy, I solved this problem connecting both the devices (Nexus 10 and Xoom) on my S4 hotspot, believe this is FAST! Using SuperBeam app I usually get from 35-40Mbps. I think most of the android phones with hotspot functionality may have good speeds.

I use Bubble UPnP BTW! Also, if you think too uncomfortable having to manually select your subtitle, I believe BS Player still downloads it automatically and put on auto too. It used to do this with me, I don't know if it still downloads ;).

Well, those are just some more alternatives you may want to try :). As there are some good solutions over there!

All the best,

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Animor:
Great news, people!
[MENTION=4350825]bv90andy[/MENTION]

I have found a way to stream external srt subtitles along with the movie, using uPnP.

Apparently, only some uPnP media servers and clients support it. In addition, only some movie players can extract this information when streamed through uPnP. I've found several such uPnP media servers, but most of them require payment after a trial period. However, I've managed to find one that doesn't!

So, in order to stream videos with external srt, you need the following:

1. Serviio on you PC.

2. BubbleUPnP on your android device.

3. MX player on your android device.

4. The srt file should have the same name of the movie file, and they have to reside both at the same directory in your PC.

Enjoy!

ps:

You are mistaken - read again the thread. The bottleneck is not the LAN speed or the router, it's smb/cisf protocol, which is too slow to stream 1080p videos. Using uPnP protocol instead of smb/cisf, over the same LAN and with the same router, we have managed to solves the issue.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krishelnino:
I am facing headphone jack issues of late with my Note 2. I have tried many headphones and earphones in my Note 2 and only the left audio works. If I wriggle around the audio jack and if I put the wire in a certain position, then the right audio comes and again stops even if the wire moves slightly. Its very annoying that I have to adjust the cable all the time. It is most likely a hardware problem with the jack. Should I give it in the service center or is there anything that I can do ? I am rooted and using a custom ROM. Will they repair it under warranty, if I flash back to stock ROM and reset the counter ?

Thanks

Try cleaning out the port with a Q Tip and compressed air. No liquids if it continues then I would have services. Before sending it in have the stock firmware with kernel and recovery. And test it after that before sending it in.

Mine is doing this too, but only with certain cables plugged in. Those with a wider flat plug have the issue, where those with a smaller rounded plug do not. I am attempting to just get a cable for my headphones that have a smaller rounded plug, instead of getting the phone fixed, since it works with some. I think it is more an issue with not being able to push the plug entirely flush as the phone is curved, than with a defect in the contacts (though nothing would suprise me).

I am in the UK and Vodafone were adamant that they (or Samsung?) wouldn't fix it because it was rooted. He then agreed with me that rooting my phone would in 'no way break the headphone socket' lol, still wouldn't repair it though :(

Do you have a link or anything that says EU phones must be fixed if they are rooted? I'm going to send Samsung a snotty email and it would be useful.

One of many authoritative sources: http://matija.suklje.name/rooting-and-flashing-your-device-does-not-void-the-warranty-in-eu

It boils down to that the repair centre has to maintain warranty as long as they cannot prove that rooting is the direct cause to whatever problem you have.

Exactly this. I was going to have to unroot , until I saw this. There is also another little screw to the right of the jack when looking at the back of the phone with the cover off. Check this one too. They were both loose on mine.

headphone jack issues.

II bought my note 2 used. The headphone jack was broken when I bought it. I've had the jack replaced twice in the past month. It keeps going out. The sound turns to static but if I move the plug, it will work a little while. Is this a note 2 defect or did I just buy a bad phone?

I got this issue just few weeks ago. I purchased a replacement audio jack, and installed it today. Not working. Then I tightened the screws a bit, and it worked! For a good ten seconds... and the issue remains.

Does anyone know the inner workings on this device? It seems to be a connecting issue. I tried adding some pressure around the audio jack area on top of the plastic cover, but it didn't help... The phone works just fine otherwise, and I happened to notice that the original headset volume rocker and microphone works but I can't hear anything!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toastysteve:
Having an interesting/annoying time with my n7105.

Dropped it one too many times, and the headhphones audio turned into a static hissing mess!

I found that by just smaching the phone against my knee or something solid, the audio would return for about an hour.

It got worse and worse and eventually I decided to fix it. I purchased a replacement audio receiver jack and installed it, but the problem still remains, so I'm unsure where the actual issue is occurring.

I found that by tightening a screw just below the audio jack, that it fixed the problem. I have to tension it just right... Too tight and the issue returns.

I think the issue must be with the connector on the motherboard, where the ribbon cable connects. I say this because the screw I'm tensioning to fix the issue sits pretty close to this, and would be pressuring this down and around.

So I'm not sure how I'd fix this without replacing the entire motherboard.

I'll crack it open again soon and have another dig at it.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toastysteve:
Well I attempted half of this. I opened the phone up again and cleaned up the connections with some 100% Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (they had a bit of gunk on them).

Started putting the phone back together and cracked my screen. Hurray!

finished putting it back together and there's no improvement.

I'll pull it apart and place the above screw directly into the motherboard as instructed and see if that helps.

Will update upon completion.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toastysteve:
Probably my final update because I've given up on this.

I relocated the screw to go directly into the motherboard, and it's improved things somewhat. I'll still get crackling sound at first, but not as bad as before, and a more subtle tap of the phone seems to fix this up (as opposed to a violent smack on the knee).

Worth doing if this issue is driving you insane, as it was me. Still not "fixed" but improved enough that I'm not going to waste any more time on it.

Hope my experience was helpful for you.

Simple Solution

I had this problem and the way I went about it I think messed up my LTE modems without solving the issue. I was told to hit my phone against a hard surface

So the actual solution is to tighten the screw between camera and flash.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toastysteve:
It can be. That's certainly worked for some people, and is the first thing to try.

Failing that, the best thing to do is open up your phone and place a small folded up sheet of aluminium foil (or something equally or more conductive) in the area between that screw and the contact.

Hey guys need help with this. Tried everything.

Putting pressure on the screw with my thumb works till I remove the thumb. I tried tightening the screw, but like someone said. The tension needs to be right. It works fine for about 10 yo 15 minutes after I tighten the screw.

I even opened my phone up and put a small piece of foil around the screw, but now after closing the phone up, there's a small bump near my camera where the foil is. Maybe I used too much foil but I tried my very best to make I tiny and still fold over the screw itself.

Anyways. This foil method worked for an hour or so then the distortion returned. A much slighter tap/pressure on the place with the screw/foil. Eventually. It got bad again. I had to really push hard to get the sound back.

Eventually even that stopped working and I still have the static even though I have a foil between the screw and board. No matter how I push now, I don't get any sound.

I really need help. This is driving me insane.

Thanks.

All if these pressure related fixes sound like an attempt to hold or move a cracked circuit board in place so that the crack is bridged and the circuit can function normally. There are solder pens that exist to permanently bridge such gaps, but these board are very tiny and use bga soldering to hold the parts on because the solder joints are too small to even solder normally, so good luck repairing it. I think I'll give it a try if I get some time, but odds are bad. I hear xray is the best way to find such cracks on these small board

2) Which kernel (besides Siyah) should I use if I want to change the USB charging current?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Choristav:
1 is device specific, as every one of them are different. Do remember your device almost never works at the highest frequency, but it does help in emulators (mostly at the 800mhz, touchscreen frequency and 200mhz idle, unless configured otherwise). I can personally go up to 1.6GHz, 1.8 will freeze and I have not tried 1.7 since I found no purpose of doing so.

For 2 you should investigate which kernels support changing charge currents. From memory, siyah, perseus, temasek's and boeffla's do allow these.
