[Google Chromecast] vizionforever:
No wonder I usually see static images on video billboards, I notice synch is often awful on them too, has kind of a scrolling effect...But since I want to have static images anyway, Would a software like cam studio running in 4 instances dividing up the screen streaming to 4 hacked chromecasts take a significant development effort? Thanks!

[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
I'm usually not the discouraging type, but I've seen this type of setup tried - and failed. In fact, I once tried it myself - not with Chromecast specifically, but with multiple un-synced players.

Unless this is something just to play around with at home and you don't mind rebooting it every hour or two to get things back into sync, you really need to look at getting something that can sync to other units.

If you're already putting a PC into the mix, why not just get a quad-head video card and run DVI or HDMI directly to the monitors? Worst case you could get wireless HDMI adapters. You'd get much better reliability there because it's a single source providing the 4 outputs, so the source syncs to itself.

The problem with the Chromecast method is the recompression and network-based wireless streaming. Packets get lost and delayed on the network, and can cause pauses or skips. Compound those pauses or skips over a number of loops and things quickly fall out of sync.

All of the above said, it's not impossible that some kind of Chromecast-based solution could be possible but I think it's not probable someone would put a lot of development effort into it, especially since the potential market is very limited (there are only a fixed number of rootable Chromecasts out there).

Not to mention, it would be much easier to implement with something less closed and more readily available - like Raspberry Pi again...

In the end, for anything that isn't just a hobby project, it comes down to how much your time is worth. You pay either way - time or money. Hobby projects, well, time is a given, hobbies will expand to eat all available time. :)
[Google Chromecast] vizionforever:
Thanks for your help, I already own the chromecasts and four old Samsung epic 4g, hmm.. Maybe I can sell chromecast's since they are out of stock? My not so elegant solution was to use youtube for this scenario after uploading the separate video quadrands to youtube and play them on the separate devices(d700's) broadcasting to the chromecasts. Prolly be way out of synch but led to some interesting transitions ;) Thanks again!
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
At home I'm all for fun experimentation (well, back before parenthood), but when I'm at work the thought "Hey, this is something I'd try at home" always raises a flag. ;)

If they're already rooted I'm sure you could probably sell them (not here, as it's against forum rules) fairly easily - there are folks here that have purchased rooted and rootable units on Craigslist and eBay.

If all else fails, they make great gifts. :)
[HTC One X] jahadu:
[Q] I'm only getting data when says "E" or "H", no data when "3G"

Data works fine in EDGE (E) and in the highspeed (H) mode, but when it says 3G not a single byte gets through. Is this normal behaviour?

If yes, then what are the arrows for? When in 3G-mode, what exactly does it mean when the up and/or download arrow lights up or blinks? Because it looks like it's getting data, the download arrow is constantly lit but as I said, nothing gets through.

I know it's supposed to switch to H-mode when transferring data but when I'm on a train or in another location with poor reception it obviously can't. But I can see it trying. Eventually it falls back to edge. This I understand.
[HTC One X] buju001:
I think,but i`m not sure,it have to do with Fast Dormancy.You can try to disable it and see if it`s better.
[HTC One X] Rittzy:
Funny, I have been wanting to know the same thing for ages. Whats the point in it saying 3G when it automatically hops to H when it want to do anything. There has been times where the reception isn't great and it stays on 3G but I cannot access anything data related

Hi all,

I have my mda-pro for a while now, and had some problems with it... After searching this forum(great forum) i found there were some fixes. After trying these fixes and still had some problems i decided to upgrade my device with the this rom ftp://xdaupload:xda@ftp.xda-develop...bile ROM update for MDA pro, january 2006.zip

After i upgraded my device was faster and more stable, but found 1 issue i can't find the answer for on this forum. (by the way if you have problems like device hanging etc this rom will help you it was my life saver... :D )

The issue i have is that with my older t-mobile rom i could make a call and use gprs/umts together, but after the upgrade grps/umts is disconnected when i get a call or make one. :evil:

Is there a reg tweak to stop this, i find it verry annoying that i can’t check my mail when i’m on the phone. When people who I’m in a converance call with and saying I mailed the info to you I have to disconnect my call open/check my mail and call them back verry verry annoying… :evil: :evil: :evil:

Thanks for the help :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] futurethat88:
Anyone know of a way to bring back Long press to activate torch on lockscreen on the new 4.4KitKat nightlies?? I've gone through every menu setting I could think of. On 10.2, I was able to turn on torch at without unlocking or sliding down drawer which I really liked.

Otherwise, CM11 is the best yet. Have had only one random reboot during netflix usage. Runs faster than any rom before, best battery life.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Derekhuff89:
Hey guys, I just recently got my Nexus 7 2nd gen and its my first android device. Im all about customization and thats what got me so excited about the possibilities that android offers. Anyway, I am looking to root my tablet asap but because Im new I have my reservations. Im looking for advice, tips, opinions and etc. Anything would be greatly appreciated and Im excited about learning more about the android platform and my new Nexus. With all that said my main concern is about rooting itself and what i need to look out for when i try to tackle this. Thanks for the help!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mbamberg:
Congratulations, Android is a fun environment. As you are sure to learn (from all the other replies), the burden of learning falls on YOU. Read all the stickies, rules, and above all search! In addition to the forum search, sometimes Google search works better.

More direct to your question, go to the development sub-forum and find the WugFresh toolbox. It will help you get started, but you will really want to understand the underlying tools to really get the most from your tablet.

Have fun!

Hi! So the problem is that I installed a custom ROM on the family tablet, but some family members want to get the stock JB back. I have a backup of stock ICS only, because P5110XXDMI1 got released after I flashed the custom ROM and now as Hotfile is dead, I can't get this firmware from anywhere.

Yes download the mf3 tar files. Use this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1372414 and you should be back to stock than you should be able to go back into recovery.

Hi,

I'd like to buy an Atom, but I cannot find any real feedback on how usable the device is with one hand, lacking hardware button to map on the WM5 softkeys.

Can someone report if it is possible (and easy) to press the on-screen softkeys with one's thumb?

I'd like also answers from Wizard/Prophet owners, that can compare the usability of hardware vs on-screen buttons (but please do not participate in the poll).
[General Topics] vijay555:
arg0: you can press the softkeys on the screen, and if you have dedicated hardware keys you can of course press those. If you can't manually assign the softkeys to other non-dedicated hardware keys, tell me about it and I'll knock some thing up to sort it.

[General Topics] arg0:
hi!

What I'd like to know is: can you easily press the softkeys on the screen, using only one hand? (atom has no hardware buttons for the softkeys, and before buying it I want to be sure that one-handed operation is possible).

Thanks.
[General Topics] vijay555:
you can do it, but it's not easy because at least on the equivalent device (magician), the edge of the device tends to get in the way of the softkeys, which are like 7mm high. But it's perfectly feasible, and in the absense of dedicated keys, why not!?

None of these phones are particularly well setup for one handed use, but with some work, can be made that way!

[General Topics] stargator:
I have been using the ATOM for the past 1 month and I have always used my thumb to activate the Softkey on the screen

it is much more comfortable that way

The ATOM is too small to use the bottom key (o2 media plus key ) as soft key (only key that can be reassigned in the front panel )

Also U cannot re map the Windows key as of now
