[Google Chromecast] stooged:
you don't need the chrome browser which I don't use, its junk imo.

no ads.

its free.

open source.

the main point of this is to just encourage more people to develop more things for rooted chromecasts, not everyone codes in languages that make chrome browser extensions or android apps etc.

if you look at fling its open source and is a good source of information for anyone that wants to develop standalone applications for the chromecast.

I think things like videostream are great for people who just want something that will play a file, but charging money for things and closed source projects don't really help other developers.

videostream is a good extension it has playlist support, a custom tv part, can be controlled from your phone etc.

but its transcoding is done using ffmpeg and x264 projects which are opensource and free, without those people doing amazing work on those open source projects we wouldn't be able to transcode videos.

without team eureka we wouldn't have rooted chromecasts and thats open source and free.

I made this project for my own personal use to cast media to my projector and TV's around my house, I started using fling but that stopped working so I used the source as a guide to create deskcast in a language I could understand so I could maintain it and keep it working.

I decided to share it here because this is where I found fling and the team eureka rom, its not intended to compete with other projects or extensions its more of a source code dump for anyone out there that uses vb.net.

Crash solved

Before i was on windows 8 64 bits she was crashing !! Now i am on windows 8.1 64 bits she's crashing again !

I have dl the src and debug and I found where search ask on the web and i solve..

The problème is with french pc, where locale Fr is used.

Because the programme for show us the current_time and de total duration of the cast, receive data and parse them.

The programe receive data in string like "0.145666" or "46.613333" .

And later we try to convert this decimal number in string to double.

But on US pc :

(4.5).ToString() send "4.5"

Convert.ToDouble("4.5") send 4.5

Convert.ToDouble("4,5") send an exception

On FR pc :

(4.5).ToString() send "4,5"

Convert.ToDouble("4.5") send an exception

Convert.ToDouble("4,5") send 4.5

I dont find this alone but i was searching help here http://openclassrooms.com/forum/sujet/la-conversion-de-la-chaine-46-6133-en-type-double

and somebody send me here http://www.developpez.net/forums/d530200/dotnet/langages/csharp/convert-todouble-ne-gere-points/

Where i found the solution.

So you can download the src http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2958209&d=1412304466

open in visual studio go to Form1.vb

At the beginning of the file under

Option Strict Off
Option Explicit On
Imports System.IO

add

Imports System.Globalization

and search for

If Spl2(0) = "null" Then Spl2(0) = 0

You will find 3 occurance. But only 2 are interesting on line 288 and line 295.

Add before these 2 lines

If CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName = "fr" Then Spl2(0) = Spl2(0).Replace(".", ",")

at final you will have

If InStr(StrMessage, Chr(34) & "duration" & Chr(34) & ":") <> 0 Then
Spl1 = Split(StrMessage, Chr(34) & "duration" & Chr(34) & ":")
Spl2 = Split(Spl1(1), ",")

[Android General] Tough Toughman:
Axgio company's 8-core smartphone will be available for presale soon, and the price will be 114.99 US dollars, maybe the cheapest of all. The following are preferences:

OS: Android 4.4.2

CPU: MTK6592M

Display: 5-inch, QHD

RAM: 1GB

ROM: 8GB

Camera: 5MP/8MP

Battery:　2100mAh

The phone feels very thin and light. It's edges are made from plastic but deliver a feel of metal like iPhone 5. It's battery is long and narrow, and its SIM and TF slots lives to the right of the battery rather than on the top as in most other phones. Such a design may leave better space for circuits to get through and be good for the cooling of components.

I got the chance to have just a look at the the sample, and when it is avaiable for me again. i'll make a detailed review. And there are some photos about the Neon N2Q i took my own phone.
[Android General] mesang:
I've had this phone in for reviewing purposes and wrote a full review here. Axgio Neon N2Q Review

It's an interesting smartphone for just $110. I actually only disliked the camera and the screen resolution could have been a bit better. Overall quite okay especially considering the price.
[Android General] Tough Toughman:
yep, the camera is not good. About the display resolution, yes, it's low, but meanwhile, it can be easily drived by the not-so-snappy MTK6592M, so when the N2Q runs some demanding games like real racing 3 or Asphalt 8, it handles quite gracefully.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):

Why can't I use a different kernel with this ROM?

Answer: Because my kernel is based off of the official Samsung kernel release (and not the official CyanogenMod kernel), it needs some libraries in the ROM to be rebuilt in order to get it booting. Also, using a different kernel with my ROM would make no sense, as you could just install another kernel on top of the official CM11 nightlies (which would give a similar result).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krazierokz:
thanks for keeping our S2 alive [MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION] looks very very promising !!!! will def try this out this weekend !
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] luxkore:
Does this kernel have sweep2wake and notification-bar-double-tap-to-sleep? I'm trying to not wear out my power button.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sultanxda:
Notification-bar-double-tap-to-sleep is available in CyanogenMod for all devices (so it is therefore included in my ROM). It does not require kernel changes.

Sweep2wake on the other hand is a kernel feature. My kernel does not have sweep2vomit at the moment.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] luxkore:
Darn, that was the only thing preventing me from flashing this. I had a lot of power button problems in the past :(

And also, volume button to wake isn't great because I listen to music a lot and it turns the screen on often when I want to change songs with my headphones.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sultanxda:
I'll add it in this weekend.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
I'm at the point the last thing I wanted to do was flash another ROM on this phone, especially CM11 after all the problems of the past year. However the developer's rep and the changes made to this version warranted a try. Based on nearly a full day's use I am very happy to say this is superb work. Battery life is incredible on standby, 1% an hour (my CPU min is 486 BTW). Extremely smooth app performance especially with CPU intense apps like Viper and Neutron. I was having severe breakup in audio on standby and sometimes with screen on unless I set the CPU to 1080 min. Not happening on this ROM at all.

I didn't think this ROM would ever be usable for this phone. That doesn't appear to be the case now. I'll have the complete picture after a few days but this is awesome. Big thanks [MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION] and welcome to the Hercules community.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sultanxda:
That's good to hear. Is there any particular reason you set your minfreq to 486 MHz? Someone who was testing this for me a couple days ago set his minfreq to 432 MHz so the device wouldn't feel laggy when waking it up from sleep. If you raised the minfreq for a similar reason then I could add a hack to the kernel to boost the CPU for maybe 8 seconds when the device wakes up from sleep.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
I've learned (finally) that setting a higher min freq. helps with Neutron when running with screen off and yes, with lag in general including wake lag. I have also found that battery life is no different whatsoever by doing this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jaf5489:
Been running this ROM for a day, and I'm happy to say it's been very stable so far!

Things I've tested:

Bluetooth Audio

Phone

SMS

Theme Engine/General UI

Wifi

Camera/Video

All are working perfectly! ROM is running quite smooth, I've yet to encounter any issues. Wake-up lag is practically non-existent (:D!). Great job on the ROM, thank you for your contribution to the Hercules. I'll continue running and report back if I find any issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
I wanted to mention on themes, installing them on some other ROMs causes a soft reboot. That did not happen after I restored four themes from TB on this ROM. Speaking of which, this is the ONLY time ever I have been able to restore every single app from TB without having to stop the app and reboot the ROM for the system apps to be installed. All restoration done on the first attempt. Amazing. Makes the setup so much less painful.

Only problem I have is with Google Now. I have to do some steps to get it to stop FCing (this applies anytime PA Gapps are used, nothing to do with the ROMs). I now fix it by removing the velvet.apk, installing the official version and wiping app data. For some reason this fixes the FCing. BTW I do not restore that app from TB in case somebody is wondering.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] luxkore:
Thank you tons for planning to add sweep2wake :) I'll get this now to test it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sultanxda:
New kernel (v1.3.6) uploaded with Sweep2Wake and a new feature I created, the CPU-boost framework. With this new feature, wake-up lag should be non-existent. Read the FAQ in the 3rd post to learn more about the CPU-boost framework.

To update to kernel v1.3.6, download the v1.3.6 Aroma installer from the link in the OP. Enjoy!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
Thanks, I'll try it but honestly zero wake lag here. Guess this allows for lower CPU min then? Also just to note, went from 5% to fully charged on AC in 2 hours and 10 minutes. Very nice.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sultanxda:
Yeah, try setting your minfreq to 192MHz and see how it goes.

Also, I made a small derp in the CPU-boost framework. v1.3.7 uploaded with the derp fixed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
OK set to 192 min and no lag at all. Tested screen off a few times, not even a nanosecond. Again, what I appreciate the most though is that Neutron runs in the background and doesn't skip a beat. Screen on or off. I can't tell you how much things like that have caused me trouble over the past year. One minute I'm listening to music, the next the audio just stops out of nowhere. Poweramp and all the rest did this too so often. I think a ROM is perfect, than I start using my regular apps and stuff starts happening. Which begs the question: where were you a year ago man???!!! JK.

I think people have been scared off by official CM11 so bad they are afraid to try this ROM. Sometimes it got so bad for me the ROM wouldn't even boot after powering off and powering on. Lag was off the charts. This is CM11 the way it was meant for our particular phone IMHO. Stability and speed are second to none. It's what I was expecting from other ROMs all along but never quite got, even though very close at times.

The gravity of your accomplishment is not to be taken lightly. My point:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cangri87:

I noticed this the Kernel listed has a beta version indicated to this so does this mean it's not the official fix yet? Your hard work is greatly appreciated! You have breathed new life into my Son's aging T989. I thought he would be stuck on 4.2.1 forever. We have been running this ROM for 2 days with heavy use and only saw a few issues but they were external from the ROM build.

I am actually considering running it in ART run-time instead of the default settings which is Dalvik. We are running your your latest build and wiped everything and ran it as a clean install. Has there been any bugs or concerns with the current build from October 11. 2014 that we should be aware of before taking the plunge?

In my book, this will be one heck of an accomplishment if it works without affecting something else. I just figured it was a complicated or maybe impossible fix since its been around for a while.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] obscuresword:
You know what I was using the September 23 build and not the latest one (which I thought I was). I switched to the new October build and everything is working fine. One more thing is their a way to adjust the screen undervolting, and gpu over clocking without having to go into the Aroma installer? Finally, as a new T989 user I can't wait to see what else you got in store for this device. :D

Edit: I notice that you can set the max clock speed to 1944mhz in Aroma. What's odd is the option is their to set it to that value in the "performance" setting in CM. However, doing this instantly freezes the device. The highest I could set it without freezing is 1890 mhz?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrleathers:
[MENTION=4704705]obscuresword[/MENTION] 1836 is the highest I can go without freeze then RR. And you can use trickster mod or some other kernel tweaking app to change those perimeters outside aroma aside screen UV.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] obscuresword:
Thanks. I notice that to. I can't run Quadrant set at 1890 mhz because it does a reboot. I think I was able to run it without the device rebooting with Uber kernel and Beanstalk. However, graphic performance dropped and the device locked up quite a bit more lol. Have you seen s noticeable difference in battery life when undervolting the display?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
This device doesn't run anything past 1836 in my experience, despite what some have posted in the past. Far as undervolting the display, it hasn't made a big difference in SOT. Then again when you are getting over 32 hours battery life I just did, it doesn't matter.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sagirfahmid3:
1. Set screen undervolting and GPU overclocking via editing /etc/init.d/89z_kernel.

2. Device freezes because it can't handle 1.9GHz without a voltage boost, though I would not recommend overvolting past 10% stock voltage at 1.5GHz (which is 1.225V). So I, personally, wouldn't go any higher than ~1.35V.

(I have mine set at 1.7GHz @ 1.2V, so it's actually undervolted AND overclocked, which is good for battery life, performance, and keeping internal temperatures safe. I also have the display undervolted by 500mV. The colors on the screen appear a little washed out, but it's not too noticable once you get used to it).

3. Use an app called kernel tweaker for managing OC/UV and other kernel settings. It's open source.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tribalartgod:
Can confirm, one heck of an accomplishment...has been accomplished...

Best Battery Life...Ever.

I wasn't going to post this both on G+ and here but WTH, seems a few were a bit miffed at my battery stats so might as well tick some off here too. Got 33 hours battery after recent updates. Since I had just one hour screen time and no calls during that, some say I am not "using my phone" so in effect that kind of battery is easy to get. OK, well you be the judge of that. I know for a fact I have similar usage on weekdays and best I could get before was around 24 hours, give or take. Typically it was 20 hours. If SOT of 2 or more hours and other variables are thrown in, sure it's more like 12 to 16 hours. My CPU settings are 384 min, 1836 max and Performance governor.

However, the flash of the ROM zip fails every time because of: "E: unable to stat '/external_sdcard/'"

How do I work around this? I currently am running CM 10.1.3 (that's the latest official stable build that I can flash without the above error).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
OK, so just to confirm you are using the latest, you are using official TWRP 2.7 or 2.8 right? Also are you selecting the right directory where the ZIP file is stored I wonder? That error shouldn't pop up unless you are selecting the external card directory, which would produce the error as you said since you don't have an external card.

Maybe this can help you if I can't: http://www.droidviews.com/fix-e-cant-mount-sd-card-issue-android-devices/

No problems here, maybe you need to back up your files to your PC and format your card. Also are you using the Google camera app?

Thanks.

^ I updated it again, using a 2.8 ISO, and it is showing v 2.1.8 within twrp.

What do you mean by " selecting the right directory where the ZIP file is stored"?

Once again, I am able to flash CM10.1.3, but nothing higher than that (including this mod).

(EDIT: Apparently my phone is now running 10.2.0-hercules for CM, even though I swear I only flashed 10.1.3; however, I still can't flash anything 11 or higher).
