[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RumoredNow:
It failed for me with quotes... I seem to remember when it first hit in March(?) I struggled to implement the sync and ended up with no quotes then as well. I never got it working again via my Ubuntu Box, including now. So glad we got terminal on the device. :D

On the cdimage-touch side there is a new version today: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/ but I'm not getting any OTA for ubuntu-system since 20 August so I don't know if reflashing via Ubuntu Box gets you anything with

except for a wipe of your data... :p

HI,

How do I choose which accounts I want to auto sync? When I go into that option, I see all my accounts and on the top, there is just the option to turn it off/on. I only want auto sync for Exchange and gmail. All the rest (Facebook, etc) I want off.

Thanks

David
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L0rdNels0n:
Go in to Accounts and Sync

Tap on one of your accounts that you do NOT need syncing

then you may see sync options

OR

tap on the account name again

you should see ticked options (that indicate what is being sync'd) un-tick the options

job done
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] steveoderocker:
Hi All!

I recently have been playing around, removing apps and such from my S4 (stupidly without making a backup first) and removed the clock app, thinking it was just the clock widget.

I have been googling around for a fix for the last day and a half, and nothing is working.

Tried:

1. Copying clockpackage.apk to /sd and installing - FAIL

2. Copy clockpackage.apk and clockpackage.odex to /system/apps, changed permissions, rebooted, try to install - FAIL

3. Downloading different versions of clockpackage app to see if they would work. NOPE.

I just want my clock app back guys, without doing a full restore..

Any help is appreciated :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kstegeman:
Hi all,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3, rooted with Liquid Smooth and TWRP. A few days ago it went into an endless bootloop, I took out the battery, waited a few minutes, but it back and it worked fine. The next day, however, the same happened but my 'easy fix' didn't work. The Samsung logo flashes, stays on 4-5 seconds, then disappears, black screen for a second, and then reappears. I tried going into download mode, but that will appear for 4-5 seconds, then go away as well, and restart to the Samsung logo. Same for recovery mode, the Teamwin logo appears for just a few seconds and the phone boots again.

I read up online that more people had similar problems with this, that it might be a hardware issues with the motherboard or power button. Does anyone have any knowledge of this problem on how to fix it or how to get a replacement?

Many thanks.

Need help??

Tell we more detail dude.. ;)
[Google Chromecast] bretto13:
I just got my Chromecast and the Netflix/Youtube playback works awesome and I have no issues with HD, but when I stream a tab from Chrome on my Macbook Air it looks very bad. It looks the same no matter what setting I've tried and seems like there is glitching graphically, not just poor resolution. I even moved it from my TV to a desktop monitor that is close to my router and it does the same thing. Has anyone ran into this issue?

EDIT: Tried streaming a tab from my Windows desktop and it looks fine, so it appears to be isolated to my Mac.
[Google Chromecast] thesparky007:
It could be your MacBook not the chromecast.. I can share my whole screen and watch movies through chromecast without a hitch.

It diesnt sound like your WiFi is bad so it has to be your laptop
[Google Chromecast] bretto13:
I tried installing the Chrome beta release and it works fine now on my Macbook. I was just worried that it might somehow be defective, though I thought that would be pretty unlikely since Netflix streams perfectly. I'm not sure why I would have issues with the stable release of Chrome, but it looks perfect streaming 720p tabs on the Beta release now.
[Google Chromecast] verysmartncool:
Also while tabcasting I have noticed reducing the resolution does not impact much in image quality. I hardly see a difference. But it does reduce the stream quality. You/ anyone else having issues can try reducing the resolution to 480p using the gear icon while tabcasting. Ignore this if you are a videophile ;) :p

Edit: nevermind the above. I actually did not see the attached image that is horrible quality. I did not had this bad of an issue. One more thing I have noticed is that it is better to have your laptop, connected to power, as sometimes on battery, the laptop OS power management may try to reduce wifi performance to save battery.
[Google Chromecast] iamalexchung:

Do you have a 2013 MacBook Air? I had the same problem with mine but fixed the issue by changing a setting in Chrome:

[Google Chromecast] SalTNutz:

[Google Chromecast] stormglove:
Turning off hardware acceleration worked on my 3yr old basic computer. Going to try my Asus smart tab tonight, hoping for the same results
[Google Chromecast] Wrngway:
I'm having the same problem streaming video from within tabs. I'm using a Dell Laptop circa 2007 though. I don't use it for anything else and it's been gathering dust so I was a bit excited that I might be able to tab stream from it and maybe use it for ESPN, AMC, or HBO.

Turning off hardware acceleration did help, but I get stuttering and the audio isn't synced with the video. Switching to 480p didn't make much of a difference. I've updated all the drivers, but it's running Windows 7 and the drivers were made for XP.

I'm hoping a chromecast update may clear this up.
[Google Chromecast] adrynalyne:
I'm convinced it is more a Chrome issue than Chromecast. I can stream 1080p video just fine if it is local. The quality stays, there is no stuttering, and audio is synced. It is only when I do online content that the issues show up.
[Google Chromecast] Wrngway:
Here's a link to the minumum system requirements for streaming.

https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/3209990?hl=en

In my case, I'm running a t2300 core duo processor at 1.66 GHz. Graphics is an ATI Radion Mobility X1300. It looks like it's subpar at best based on the requirements.
[Google Chromecast] klbjr:
I'm running a 1st gen i7 965 @ 3.2 GHz and 2 GTX 280's in SLI plus 12 GB of RAM with a Belkin N900 router and 105/20 Mbps connection and with my TV sitting less than 10 feet away the quality sucks!
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
I don't get terrible tab casting quality, but there's no doubt that the video isn't perfectly smooth. It stutters, skipping a few frames about once per second, which is pretty distracting. I'm kind of puzzled as to why.

The video plays smoothly in Chrome on the desktop system I'm casting from, whether it's an internet stream or a local MP4 file, so it's not a source problem.

I have a pretty fast desktop system doing the casting (Intel Core i5-3770K overclocked), and it never shows more than 14% CPU usage and plenty of free physical memory while casting. Switching resolutions between 480, 720, and 720 Extreme in the casting options makes a small difference to the CPU load (range 8% to 17%), but no difference at all to the stuttering video that I can see.

I think I get a pretty good connection to my WiFi-N router from the TV+Chromecast location. A laptop in the same location shows connected at 130 Mbps with Excellent signal strength. I can force a wide channel for even more speed, but it doesn't make any difference that I can see. Certainly normal internet video HD streams seem to be perfectly smooth when coming direct from Youtube or Netflix over WiFi, never a stumble. You would think that if WiFi bandwidth were the problem, switching from 720 to 480 would make a difference, but it doesn't.

So what's the problem here? Is it just a quick and dirty beta implementation by Google that doesn't do a very good job? Is there some hidden bottleneck? Is it impossible to re-encode video with high efficiency for casting on a typical system? (but in that case why are they using an algorithm that uses only a small percentage of one CPU core?)

I've tried some of the suggested tricks, like turning off hardware acceleration in Chrome, which increases CPU usage a bit, but makes not much if any apparent difference in smoothness of video. I've also tried disabling real-time anti-virus checking, but it's hard to tell if it's any better.

I not sure if there are any other Chromecast owners who actually get smooth video tab casting performance or not. People who say it's fine for them may not have looked very closely, and maybe wouldn't notice video stuttering unless it was pointed out to them.
[Google Chromecast] EarlyMon:
There's more to it than CPU bandwidth but I can't say what.

I can say that I am well aware of what stuttering and frame loss looks like and I get little to none on a MacBook Pro that doesn't meet Google's requirements for tab casting.

I guess my point is that it's still in beta and we all can hope for better.

Have you tried using Plex?
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
I don't see how using Plex would make any difference. Plex doesn't have native Chromecast support, so I'd still be casting a tab.
[Google Chromecast] klbjr:
Well whatever the problem is at least it only cost $35 because I would be really pissed if I paid more for it in its current state.
[Google Chromecast] Wrngway:
I went out and bought a n n150 usb wifi adapter for my desktop. It's an I5-33570k processor overclocked to 4.5GHz, 8 Gb of ram, and a GTX570 graphics card. I'm getting much better reslts from this than my circa 2007 dell laptop.. Video is definitely watchable and quality is generally SD or better. There is some very slight frame loss, which is noticable. The wifi signal is --60dbm where the chromecast is.

I still need to play around with some settings. I have the chromecast set to 720p, but not extreme bandwidth. For some reason unchecking hardware accelerationleads to videos not taking up the entire tab.
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
I have almost the same desktop system configuration as you Wrngway, and I get the same results: reasonable tab-casting performance with low CPU utilization, but still getting some very noticeable dropped frames.

I also tried my 2009-vintage Core-2 Duo laptop (P8400 CPU at 2.27 GHz). No good - 100% CPU utilization, the video stutters on the laptop screen and on the Chromecast it's just jerky frames and then it freezes after a few seconds. Dropping the res to 480p improves things slightly, but still not watchable.

Actually I have a new theory about what's wrong with tab casting that causes it to skip frames and stutter even though it's running at low CPU utilization. The problem is that it isn't buffering enough. When you compare the Chromecast TV output to the computer screen, it's obvious that there's less than 1/2 sec. lag. When the picture content changes rapidly in the incoming video stream, there's a spike in decoding/encoding performance requirement that momentarily exceeds real-time CPU capacity, causing frames to be dropped. An instant later it catches up when the performance requirement drops. The CPU utilization is relatively low on average, but there's still not enough CPU power to handle the peaks. The solution would be more buffering and less aggressive frame dropping. There's actually a buffer length setting in the hidden Chrome extension settings, but it doesn't appear to have any effect. In any case, the encoding algorithm would have be smartened up to not drop frames as long as there's plenty of buffer time to catch up.
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
I was just experimenting with a Roku 2 and Plex, comparing to the Chromecast. The Plex media server running on my desktop PC can transcode external video streams from a wide variety of sources (e.g., Youtube, most U.S. TV network sites) and stream them to the Plex client on the Roku 2 via WiFi, just as tab casting does for the Chromecast. The Roku 2 is in the same location as the Chromecast and it's almost as compact as the Chromecast. They both get Excellent WiFi signal strength.

So explain to me how the video stream cast from Plex plays perfectly smoothly on the Roku, while the tab casting to the Chromecast from the same PC drops frames and stutters noticeably. Maybe Google needs to hire some programmers from Plex to help them out!
[Google Chromecast] adrynalyne:
You do know it is still beta, right?

I don't like that the chromecast updates are taking so long, especially the sdk, but it is still beta.
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
Just how long is it going to take for these improvements to arrive? It's been 5 months, with huge Chromecast sales. I recall that some Google services were labeled "Beta" for years.
[Google Chromecast] extrem0:
You should ask Google.. We are all in the same boat.
[Google Chromecast] adrynalyne:
That is the question we would all like an answer to.
[Google Chromecast] cmstlist:
Could be because Plex -> Chrome -> Google Cast actually transcodes twice. Plex and Chrome are competing for your CPU power. Whereas Plex -> Roku might only have to transcode once into whatever format Roku needs.
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
I'm not talking about Plex -> Chrome -> Google Cast. Why would I do that when I have Plex -> Roku?

I'm pointing out that the Plex Media Server has to receive a video stream, transcode it, and send it to a remote client like the Roku just like Chrome does for the Chromecast. But the same stream that stutters with Chrome -> Chromecast plays smoothly with Plex -> Roku using the same desktop computer and WiFi network. The difference is that the Chrome casting extension is not doing a good job of transcoding.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Why are you in download mode? The only reason to be there is to connect your phone to a pc while running Odin, as a means to flash a rom or a recovery.

Explain please.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chinq:
Odin

That's exactly why I'm there. I'm trying to flash a stock AT&T ICS rom in order to unlock my Galaxy sGH-I717. I have Padawan JB 2 now, and cannot unlock b/c it is not ICS. I have the ICS radio (I717UCMB4).

When I start the download, then open Odin or vice versa, and chose the PIT file as well as the PDA file ( ATTStockrom), the flash succeds in Odin, but the download never happens....just says Downloading...Do not turn off target.

Its been doing that for any and every Odin rom I turn to install.

Here are the settings for the phone:

Model Number: Samsung -SGH-I717

Adroid Version: 7.12

Baseband version: I717UCMB4

Kernel version: 3.0.80-g2bd6dbe, (and some more numbers)

Build Number JB 2

I have no servicemode.apk no longe, ror any of the files that should be in the phone since resetting to factory setting (reset according to instructions before installing a rom). I did a backup before hand, but that was erased as well.

I have a backup via Samsung Kies, but it says phone is unsupported, even though I upgraded, and the software did a backup to my pc before I did the factory reset.

So, now I have the dilemna of not being able to download the necessary file(s) via Odin. I do have TWRP, but I haven't been able to get any roms to restore to ATT stock. TWRP never gives me a problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Anthony820:
Less than 2 months ago I unlocked my phone, on padawan, with a jb modem.

But, since you do, here. According to bigfau's post it's 100% pure stock.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chinq:
Before I did the factory reset, I'd tried to unlock my phone numerous times, to no avail. I thought maybe I needed to go backwards to the ICS version.

Nothing has worked. The service mode app is not showing, when I look into system and other folders via TWRP they are ALL empty. The only thing that shows up when I key in *#197328640# is the message "right-hard: Back.....". Looks like the service menus items are hidden. or gone.

When I was able to access the service menu and select Unit, etc. I still could not unlock my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Anthony820:
Regardless of modem, you're not going to unlock on an AOSP. When I was standing in a t-mo store switching my service, I had to restore (to padawan/stock) to get it to pop up asking me to unlock. No codes I would enter would work at all.

Do you have a foreign SIM card in it? Or are you trying to unlock it with an AT&T inside? If you're on stock (ics or JB) and have a non-AT&T sim card in there, it should pop up as soon as it boots. Stock being anything based on stock samsung (non-aosp) firmware. Blackstar, Black Jelly, Padawan (either), and the link I posted above will all have the ability to unlock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chinq:
Padawan Stock

I am running Padawan JB 2. I even purchased an unlock code from the Unlock My site. All I get is "unlock unsuccessful". I have the AT&T sim in, which is "unprovisioned mm2. It is a U.S. card, the same one that came w/my phone when I purchased it. Right now it is deactivated. I had tried putting in a T-Mo card after trying to unlock my phone via service mode. All I got was something about a subscription, and I still could not unlock my phone.
