I don't really understand why there isn't more interest in getting XBMC to work with Chromecast. It would basically let you watch anything you could possibly want to.
[Google Chromecast] space_eyes:
Off of a pi ;) there's a good kit on eBay for 80 I believe it was...
[Google Chromecast] efrommel:
I would love to do this!!!
[Google Chromecast] pcspecialistpdx:
would love it

I don't even use my Chromcast but this feature would change that.
[Google Chromecast] GabrialDestruir:
A few problems with this, first SDK is still in preview mode and they haven't opened it up so everyone can add support for their apps willynilly. This means even if someone had a solution that works the way google wants their system to work they couldn't widely release it since it'd work on only devices that have been whitelisted for development.

You could possible treat whatever you want to view as a webpage and make it possible to watch something from XBMC using the tab casting feature, but this isn't as optimal as the just send a link and have the chromecast pull up the content itself. So this method doesn't really work on low powered devices meaning you definitely couldn't do it from the chromecast.

Another issue with running xbmc on a pi and using chromecast for the video feeds is you'd need a either a way to send the main menu to the chromecast so you could see it as you navigate it, or you'd need a second display just to navigate through the menus on the Pi. Not horribly efficient that second option.
[Google Chromecast] Link_of_Hyrule:
I think the pi guy just meant setup a pi for XBMC and connect it to your TV without chrome cast. I want to use XBMC on my laptop or tablet and cast the videos to my chromecast.
[Google Chromecast] GabrialDestruir:
Ah well in that case, setting up a pi with xbmc is completely irrelevant to the chromecast, and has already been done http://www.raspbmc.com/

Edit: I realize the pi guy was saying this was possible with a Pi. But if someone is here they've most likely already bought a Chromecast as opposed to a Pi

It would be nice to see XBMC support in some way. Though I have currently switched to plex since you can pull up the interface via web and watch movies that way you can tab cast it rather nicely with a decent enough computer.

We probably won't see official support for plex or xbmc until the sdk comes out of preview release and you're not required to get your device whitelisted for the features to work, unless either group gets the preferential partner treatment like netflix, hulu, and pandora.
[Google Chromecast] lartomar2002:
Well if everything I have read on this thread is correct I will not be buying a Chromecast soon.:(
[Google Chromecast] Link_of_Hyrule:
I don't regret getting the chrome cast is totally worth it just for YouTube, Netflix, and Hulu.

XBMC over Chromecast through Avia

Using Smartphone - XMBC can be watched over Chromecast through Avia Player which costs $2.99. YouTube Video shows how.

Good Luck
[Google Chromecast] DroidsAreComing:
Chromecast streaming could happen easily. You do not need to physically have a menu on chromecast...look at all the other apps like Netflix hulu. You pick what you want on your phone and throw it to chromecast. They just need to work in a casting button for XBMC and then all will be good since most videos are mp4 anyway
[Google Chromecast] b00sted:
I would love this as I just want a all in one solution that works perfect that dont cost me a arm and a leg and yet to find it.. this is close.. I got netflix hulu. I want amazin instant and xbmc.

(I have a ouya and a rasp pi but I just like how this works a lot better)

Hi,

I know this is rather a unnecessary question, but I have always wondered why the Galaxy S4 forum/device is named "Galaxy S 4". S4 with a space inbetween? Was this just an accident or has it any deeper meaning?:confused::confused:

Sorry for being so bloody curious.:cyclops:

Thanks

Felix
[About XDA developers] Dean-xXx:
The name doesn't have any space. I mean at boot says, Galaxy S4 i9500/9505, on the box same. Probably some confusion because of the "S" shape/size.

Ah...sorry i didn`t read correctly his question.Maybe because if you search for "S4" without space between the search result would be incorrect :-??

Now THAT is a good question :D
[About XDA developers] DesireHDScreenorgasm:
You are right, I should've posted this in the Q&A section :o Shame on me.

Still: This device is correctly named like this: "Galaxy S4". Between "S" and "4" is no space. On here it is. I can't imagine why :confused:

It is a little confusing if you search for "S4" or if you type "S4" into the Type To Find Your Device field.

It just is what it is. If you like, I could get in touch with the site administrators and ask them :p

Nah, seriously it's because it's our way of knowing that it's a monitored forum. If you don't wear a tin foil hat when you browse it then we can see your internet history and address. If there's no space in the title then it's not monitored by the psychic division.

All of our Galaxy S * forums have a space. Galaxy S II and Galaxy S III are the same. There's nothing special going on. It's the same with anything. If it's a new revision, it has a space.

[About XDA developers] DesireHDScreenorgasm:
Hi Scotsman, when looking at Samsung's US website they are actually putting a space between "S" and "4". But if you look at the European websites, in UK or Germany, you can clearly see that there is no space.

Looking at this banner: http://goo.gl/8126jR you see the S4 is promoted without a space.

I think that is what confused me, in Europe ppl are just used to the "S4" without any space. This is different with "Nexus 7" or "Galaxy Note 3", but "S4" does really feel like an stand alone name, which "S 4" indeed does not reflect.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tumpin:
Hi guys,

Im having real trouble getting music onto my Ativ S. I either sync it with Jriver or copy direct to the SD Card and it doubles up all of the tracks. Sometimes it triples or quadruples the track list. I then delete everything to start again but the tracks all stay listed on the phone. Is there a way to refresh the list? I dont want to blank the phone yet again.

I have searched but cant find any thing on this. Its so bad I had to go on holiday and had no music. Ironic that my old Android devices sync better with my Windows 8 desktop than my Windows 8 phone does!

I cant find any other decent music app in the store either. I really like my Ativ S but I also really like music. Will have to go back to Android just to have Poweramp back.

I updated 3 weeks ago to BTU MH8 with knox components and all is perfect., Knox warranty 0x00....

Since my phone originally was ITV (Italy) I'd like to recover the original CSC to ITV with the new firmare ITV MHB released today.

Is there any problem, with knox installed, to flash MHB with Odin? I'm going to sell my S4 and I prefer to return it to the original status.

Thank you

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oxfordmark:
I would like to know if you can flash with KNOX (using ODIN)?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
Guys, all NEW FW's have KNOX on-board and most important the NEW irreversible Bootloader.

You can flash new FW through Odin but it MUST be newer or the same version as your current build.

For example, if you're using XXUDMH8 then you can flash ONLY firmwares with XXU.. on the beginning and anything greater than ...MH8

You can use XXUDMHB as it's newer FW.. it goes from 1-9 and A-Z..

Simple as that.. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] umberto.sulla:
Thank you for you isimple answer... I only want to be sure that changing CSC from BTU to DTM to ITV etc (going ahead with fw versions) is allowed ...

I don't want to brick my device
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
Are you 100% sure about that?

I heard once you have KNOX warranty void 0x1 then no matter what firmware you're trying to flash Odin will fail. Even if it's a newer firmware.

I hope you're right and they're wrong.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
??? What are you talking about?? :p

I've got KNOX WARRANTY VOID 0x1 and no probs at all, you can flash whatever you want through Odin (same or upwards FW's ONLY)

My KNOX Status got messed up while installing MGG and now I'm running pre-rooted XXUDMI1 ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] umberto.sulla:
Ok, updated to MHB through Odin and no problem.

Status Knox Warranty still 0x00
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
Yeah, DO NOT flash any Custom Recovery nor Root and your status will stay at 0x0.. ;)

You can flash any newer FW but think twice as you can't go back if you don't like it... ;)

That's a great problem. I stay using my UBMGA firmware.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
But you didn't flash the bootloader, did you?

So if you have new bootloader and knox 0x1 status you can still flash stock firmware in Odin and run it fine, even with stock kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjeMBeY:
You can install latest XXUDMI1 but CWM version as bootloader won't be flashed.. ;)

I'm using pre-rooted MI1 (Odin version) with latest bootloader so yes, you can. ;)

On the S3 if I used MobileOdin to flash a new Rom it wouldn't update the bootloader. Can someone confirm the same is true on the S4?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
Awesome thanks dude, and we can find this Mi1 firmware in your thread? :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
That would probably be an instant KNOX warranty void due to the fact that Mobile ODIN only runs on rooted devices...

But I'm not gonna experiment with it due to the uncertainty of it...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Painman1963:
I'm on MGA at the moment and use MO for flashing modems. I'll wait for confirmation before I update but KNOX is ruining the S4 experience
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robogo1982:
Let's try and simplify it:

IF you update to a newer ROM through Kies or flash one through Odin with the included bootloader update - your warranty is void as soon as you root, flash a custom ROM or recovery since that will trip the KNOX flag. You can keep the phone stock and install official updates, but you can not downgrade.

If you stay on MGA or older and do not update the bootloader, you can still do pretty much anything.

Proof: I flashed MGA through Odin, then flashed MI1 through CWM. No KNOX or anything.

Thank you to all devs and explorers who brought this issue to our attention and are working around it every day :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beefheart:
I'm still on the old bootloader as my Download Mode is the same as the photo in post #9. Via CWM I flashed Omega V12 which is based on MI1. So the upshot is as long as any new rom you choose to use is flashed via CWM instead of ODIN the old bootloader will remain and Knox won't be an issue. This isn't an issue for me, I can't remember the last time I used Odin for flashing anything other than a recovery.

Hopefully Samsung won't somehow start releasing builds which rely on newer bootloaders to work. And, even if they do, hopefully the cookers can bypass the restriction anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauronofrio:
i have knox warranty void set on 0x0 is normal?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Painman1963:
I think maybe there is some misunderstanding about the question I am asking, so I will try again more simply.

MobileOdin on the S3 doesn't upgrade the bootloader so on the S3 you can use MO to upgrade and downgrade the Roms without affecting the bootloader.

If it's the same on the S4 anyone who is still at Pre-Knox could theoretically upgrade and downgrade using MO without fear of voiding Knox warranty.

Can anyone confirm if that statement is true?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psternx:
I can not 100% agree. Yesterday I flashed TWRP 2.6.3.0 on a xxudmh5 firmware using Odin (3.04). Binary was "custom" but KNOX was still 0x0. Even after rebooting the flag was not set. I then reinstalled mh5 using kies and now I have stock recovery and KNOX warranty void 0x0.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimmiGee:
Knox Warranty Query

I currently have a I9505 with XXUAMDM firmware on my device which does not yet include Knox bootloader, thankfully. I have rooted using CF-AutoRoot so that I was able to use Titanium to restore backups and a host of other features I enjoyed when having root. In the event that there is an issue with my device while under warranty I just wanted to see whether anyone can answer my questions below.

If I were to update firmware via Kies, OTA or Odin using the latest official firmware, my device will unroot and be fully stock with warranty intact but if I attempt to downgrade to a non secure bootloader (pre knox) while on knox firmware or if I try to flash a custom recovery, knox flag will be raised and my warranty will be void?

If I were to flash a custom Rom with latest firmware (bootloader stripped) while on prior knox bootloader will I be able to downgrade to official pre knox firmware so that I am able to unroot for warranty purposes?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

:good:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samkuek:
Good to know this! Seems like flashing a custom recovery alone but keeping the KNOX stock firmware intact will not trigger the KNOX warranty void flag.

Hey.

I have a question.

I am on JSS15J.N9005XXUBMJ3 / MJ2 modem

My CSC its CYO (branded by T-Mobile Poland / i think original CSC from T-Mobile Poland its TPL... why now i have CYO multi-csc rom?) i bought my phone as used 1 week.

But!

There are any chance/risk to void guarante / KNOX will be set on 0x1 when i UPDATE my CYO MJ3 rom (OFFICIAL) to XEO MJ7 (OFFICIAL) by ODIN?

I don't need root - but i want latest rom, and i don't want to wait on t-mobile rom release...

And no - i don't need debrand my phone.

I had S3 and there was only TriangleAway and i could reset counter.

My KNOX flag its now 0x0.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyber_human:
Quite old question, but what I understood untli now, you can do it without tripping KNOX counter...

So if you flash newer official ROMs, you stay on the safe side...

However, I'm very new in flashing subject, so let's wait for some more experienced people...

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] galt:
I'm on Tmob USA's GPRS which works fine, except certain pages (like the html full version of google) or blogger.com just will not load over GPRS. I've tried some registry tweaks to make my browser look like another browser and some other tweaks that were recomended and I still have no luck.

I believe another JasJar user was able to set the preferences at Google to always load pages as HTML, but over GPRS I can't save my preferences on that page to do so. Over wifi I'm able to connect to any page just fine (and I've set my google preferences to HTML from the device on wifi), so I believe somewhere the device is changing the settings depending upon my connection method.

This is one of my last JasJar bugs that's driving me nuts. Please help if you can!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] galt:
Really, no one else is having this problem? crap....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sub69:
After my last hard reset google keeps diverting to www.google.co.uk/pda. I think that's because I haven't used Tweaks2k2 to change a few bits, as I normally do, but you can still view 'proper' google, by going into preferences (on the website) and changing the default to 'HTML'
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] galt:
See, I tried that with no luck. When I navigate to the preferences page over GPRS it fails to save my preferences, literally every time it times out. When I use Wifi I can navigate to the preferences page and save the preference for full HTML, but it still doesn't load when using GPRS. It's pretty clear that it's using a different set of connection settings when the connection is made via GPRS. What settings do you use with Tweaks2k2? Maybe that will work for me...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
As I see it, there are three possible reasons:

1) The connection is not a full internet GPRS connection and maybe instead going to a "walled garden", or using WAP

Go to settings, connections, connections, Manage existing connections and duplicate the settings from your Universal onto another device capable of taking your SIM card. Try that sim card in another device with the same connection settings. I expect you'll get the same results. If so, post the settings here

2) Tweaks has done something undesired. Can you list a few websites that are failing? Personally, I'm reluctant to install ANY software until I'm 100% convinced I need it. This applies also to my desktop and trippley so to my server

3) Blame the user :lol:

I reckon it's 1) :idea:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sub69:
I just set it to recognise pIE as IE6.0

I'm not convinced that that's going to fix the problem you have though, because I'm sure that I've had that problem on other PPC phones which I never used Tweaks2k2 on, and there was some other way to fix it.

I'll have a play around and see what I can come up with...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] galt:
Some interesting ideas there. Some of the sites that are failing include:

www.google.com - I can't access the full version and the PDA version hangs constantly during loading and loads results very slow, no images shown when image search is done.

www.blogger.com - It tries to load www.blogger.com/start which again hangs terribly and loads a version of the page with no images.

Various internet shortcuts I imported over from my bookmarks I used on my Dell Axim X30 (PPC2003SE). I'll have to pull a list later if I'm still having this problem.

I don't have another PPC Phone device so I can't try the settings swap but it does sound very likely. I am currently using the cab file from imate for tmobile USA settings (which does create a connection called "tzones" which kinda worries me), it uses the internet2.voicestream.com access poin. I had also manually configured the settings previously using these settings and still had the same problem (pulled from a hofo post by Mashie):

But maybe I need to try some different settings... I'll try playing with the settings I have, creating new settings, and hounding some other Tmob USA GPRS user's settings (hopefully someone using another jasjar).

Re: #2, I haven't actually used Tweaks, I used Resco registry editor to try and make the browser appear to be a full PC browser. I tried a ton of registry settings suggested by some more Hofo super-users, but nothing worked. I eventually got really creative and desperate with some registry edits and finally hard reset the device, tried the suggested reg edits again without success, then hard reset again.

Re: #3 - lol. I seem to be the only one with this problem, so I'm not rulling it out... I was a bit worried someone was going to suggest that the PEBKAC (problem exists between keyboard and chair). :oops:

Likewise a strange thing happens when I try to log into the "PocketPCDubai Forums". PIE starts to download the site page. I can see the progress indicator gradually move up.
