[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
That is an odd comment suggesting that you don't know or possibly, understand the reasons for the "S4 failures". The 128 GB cards work fine on the S5, the only real drawback being that they carry a stiff price premium over 64 GB cards.

However, any SD card, even highly rated brands can experience unexpected failures. They are usually rare unless a particular manufacturing run or model have an unexpected bug. The latter has been known to happen, but again an uncommon situation.

But by far the majority of SD card failures are due to the large number of inferior quality fakes on the market. Some of the counterfits have perfect packaging and labels and are very hard to identify as fakes. Nevertheless they have a much higher failure rate due to substandard electronics. Meaning that buying cards from a lot of discount sources, in particular ebay and most mail order vendors is fraught with peril.

You won't be able to avoid the risk of "S4" type SD card failures no matter what you do though. All you can do is minimize your risk. But some people will have cards fail, no matter what their size, brand or vendor. Given this, I would rather pay a stiff retail price but obtain a lifetime warranty through a major retailer.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 007xico:
Hi,

have the minix but not happy because some bugs, remote and the interface.

My main use is xbmc, will fire tv be as good or better ???
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmdrfrog:
They're VERY similar. Fire TV has some bugs, some quirks, and a pretty ineffective remote. The best XBMC is probably like a ECS LIVA mini-PC or a bay trail tablet (Dell venue 8 pro) which run full Linux or Windows with much greater speed and stability. An Intel X86 build is probably going to smoke any ARM+Android implementation.

That said, the Neo X8h and FireTV are probably about even for being the best XBMC ARM devices, in my opinion.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 007xico:
Thanks for replying.

A quick question, do i need to be rooted to have xbmc?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmart4:
nope. just need to sideload via ADB.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retroben:
Root is only needed to make XBMC your default launcher at startup.

The mini x8h apparently has Mali,which is less bad than Fire TV's Qualcomm Adreno.

It also has higher standards for resolution than Fire TV. (I wish I had a mini x8h!)

Can mini x8h run Reicast without causing it to reboot?

Can it run any version of Dolphin Emulator? (It has KitKat 4.4,which means OpenGL ES 3.0 support)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Volc7:
actually the adreno 320 is better than the mali 450 in all tests

http://www.antutu.com/view.shtml?id=7356#2

http://kyokojap.myweb.hinet.net/gpu_gflops/

adreno 320 APQ8064T 400 MHz 86 gflops

vs

Mali-450 MP8 --- 600 MHz 71 gflops (thats if its using the best mali 450 processor)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retroben:
You forget the main point.

Stability and compatibility is much better with Mali according to a Dolphin Emulator blog post.

https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2013/09/26/dolphin-emulator-and-opengl-drivers-hall-fameshame/

Qualcomm is deemed horrible while Mali is called bad,but can now actually run Dolphin Emulator because of driver workarounds.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadFlava:
I bought a Minix 8H and returned it 10 days later. The air mouse is a piece of junk which is what really attracted me to the unit to begin with. Their launcher is clunky and yes, you can go back to the default Android launcher, which I did. It just feels unfinished and unpolished. I know I could have customized it but I didnt pay that much for a box to re-invent the wheel.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmart4:
this^^^. plus you can snag an FireTV for $85 or less while the Minix 8 is like around $120ish I believe.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zuz242:
Well, im right now waiting for my minix8 to be delivered, which i ordered just two days before preorder launch of the atv here in germany.

I did some research beforehand and for my main use xbmc the minix seems to be best, as they are supplied with special minix versions of xmbc featuring a better mali hardware support.

But for a dicouted prime price of just €50 i ordered an atv as well ;)

I only wonder if i should cancel the minix order and wait a month or two for my atv batch to arrive or go with both units and sell one later.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Volc7:
well i had a rk3188, works ok but it always feels heavy and slow compared to my galaxy s2, galaxy s3 and firetv.

but i guess compatibility will be higher since mali is very widespread although i have yet to run something not compatible..
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retroben:
Anyone with a mini x8h please try out Dolphin and Reicast with any game like Luigi's Mansion on Dolphin,but specifically Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 on Reicast since they gave me the most trouble with reboots on my Fire TV.

I am curious if it does not reboot at all with Reicast and if Dolphin actually works since there is KitKat and OpenGL ES 3.0 support on mini x8h.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turnerl:
hi retroben i bought a x8-h just for reicast and sa1 and sa2 run really good, no reboots only after applying beta 8 firmware and hardware guru's firmware patch. :good:
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retroben:
Did it have issues before patching?

Are you going to try Dolphin emulator to see if it even runs?

My Fire TV has started running at superb speed since I applied a certain UI tweak.

If you are reading this rbox,I can confirm that nothing bad has happenned since that forced GPU tweak,and I am hoping that you will tell others how to apply said tweak.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjbxx:
Can you elaborate on what the UI tweak is and does? I'm always looking for ways to improve the Fire TV experience.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calden74:
I have a MINIX X8-H, Minix Neo Z64 and the Fire TV. I have to say out of the three the Z64 is my favourite. It fixed some of the quarks that the X8-H had and is a lot more customizable than the Fire TV. I actually only use the Fire TV for games now. I just got tired of going to the systems pane to access my apps. In this regard both the Z64 and X8-H are much better. I also absolutely love the air mouse and keyboard remote, light years ahead of the Fire TV's remote. Anyway, grab the Z64, its defiantly the winner, you can also install Windows 8 or Linux, which the Fire TV can't do.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_chinaman:
Wow, it fixed some quarks? Far enough, I'm in!

Seriously though, the Chinese boxes look tempting but their support is somewhat lacking. They move to a new model and abandon the last, bugs and all are left unfixed and you are relying on enthusiasts to make them usable. Also, look at the price difference, in Europe the Z64 is 50% more expensive than an AFTV.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calden74:
Yes but your also getting a lot more, specifically, a customizable UI, which is, to me anyway, worth every penny. I got absolutely sick of having to go to the System menu to access my side loaded apps. There is also a plethora of ports, another area in which the Fire TV falls extremely short. Each to his own tbough but I guarantee that you'll be a lot more happier with the MINIX than the Fire TV. The Fire TV is still better than the Apple TV though, I'm actually dumbfounded as to why people by that thing, just a horribly inadequate TV set box. Oooohhh we now have HBO, says the bloggers on Apple extremist sites, yeah, well I've had it since its incarnation with my MINIX and Fire TV.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SUPERSAIYAN98:
Try this first, on your device, select install drivers and software options, this can be found on usb debugging, mtp, then the third option is what I've said earlier, select that and you should be able to see the drivers of your phone in the My Computer then the name of your device, inside that folder would be the drivers for your device including the right adb drivers for your device? Do you follow?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SUPERSAIYAN98:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antagonist42:
I'm pretty sure if there was anything safe to use as a ROM it would be posted already, 5 pages on a thread and already the thread starts getting asked for ROM's!!!!

If you've rooted your device your next step should be a Working Recovery because when it goes wrong, that is the first thing you'll need.

You would be better off helping the threads OP out by asking if they still need a dump from the device to help make a recovery for it seeing as it seems people have been helped with gaining root, repairing their device and then leaving so there's still no help making a working recovery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdemary:
The only thing I see is that your are an ass trying to lecture other people, and you don't even give a good answer, few posts ago you said for some one use the post for B1-730 and that is wrong.

I mabe not very expert on this matters of flashing roms but I smart enough to know that I don't need to care if there is an recovery, yes the recovery is the first thing but if there is one ROM for a device that means there is a recovery also. And Way i will care to get a recovery if I don't have a rom to flash???

Any way the post is about rooting the device, so I click thanks on the authors post and give a good feedback about it works for me. I don't make any stupid questions about what is already answered in the topic, just ask if any one has better luck then me finding a ROM that it. If you don't like i dont care. you don't even own the post or have helped people with good answer.

Hi vache,

Thanks for posting this. In a similar way to others, I'm fighting with an Acer Iconia One B1-740-V400 which apparently got updated OTA and since then battery life (be it real or perceived because it's unknown if problem lies with the power drain of the device itself or with the charge measurement subsystem but the end result is the same) is only a few seconds.

Acer support fot this tables is NIL. They even don't list it as an available option in their support website when looking for manuals/downloads.

Unfortunately the link is broken right now. Your website shows a error page (can't post the URL because I'm a new user.)
