[MDA Compact II General] discharge:
Last night I flashed my MDA Compact II with a ROM in this forum. It's from the thread: Tuning ROM 2.6.2.27 MDA CHARMER(MDA COMPACT II). The ROM update seemed to go okay, but now the Charmer won't boot. All I get is the splash screen, which says:

IPL 1.12

SPL 1.12.0000

OS 2.6.2.27

After about 20 - 25 seconds, the background does this fade-out effect and then the phone reboots. Also, I get no charge indicator light when the phone is plugged in (power or USB). Does anyone know how I can fix this or why this is happening?
[MDA Compact II General] shayd:
1. dowenload this t-mobile official rom

2. enter your Charmer into bootloader mode by pressing power + camera + reset, let go of the reset, but keep holding power + camera until the three colur screen will show up (that is bootloader mode).

3. connect the Charmer to your pc (make sure your battery is fully charged)

4. run the t-mobile rom.

5. good luck!
[MDA Compact II General] dave106:
Also the problem is that youve still got v1 bootloaders (IPL + SPL 1.12) Once youve downloaded the official tmobile rom and installed it, you'll have v2 bootloaders and can go back to using that tuning rom properly.
[MDA Compact II General] discharge:
Thanks for the replies. I was able to flash the rom through bootloader mode, and now I'm up and running. Thanks!
[MDA Compact II General] ValkyrieLenneth:

[Nexus 9 Accessories] LOGMD:
Given that most tempered glass is 0.3mm how badly do you think it will disrupt the magnetic pull for the magic cover? im hoping it wont just fall off!

also does anyone know any tempered glass for nexus 9 available in the UK? (without the international 27 day shipping!?)
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Sweerts:
Don't know about the magnitude of the magnetic power of the cover, but I know that dbrand's tempered glass is 0.2 mm thin.

If you ask them, I guess the will make a neat tempered glass for the N9.

Nope - the app I'm looking for {Rsa sucurid) is not in there.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] yung40oz84:
I found some good settings for Viper4Android in order to use when plugged in the aux jack of the car. The speakers in the vehicle are not very great and I am sure there are many of us that have to bear with the junky speakers for the time being. These settings give me nice sound with crisper bass so the speakers do NOT crackle and rattle.

Credit for the IRS file goes to BSDgeek_Jake and the original thread, HighDefinition Impulse Responses Samples (IRS) for Viper4Android.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] jxcorex28:
I've got 4 Sony's I bought from Walmart. They aren't top of the line, but I wouldn't call em low end either. Have you tried these settings with BT ?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] yung40oz84:
I have not tried them with BT, but I would imagine they would give you some good sound. I spent about 5 days searching for IRS files and the correct settings because my speakers would crackle, the highs were off, and other various discomforting sounds. lol. Give it a try and let me know how it sounds. You the only thing you may have to adjust is the viper bass settings. I have them at 6 db and 40 ghz, so if you have the sonys then you may be able to get a little more bass without the distortion.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] joho5:
Why do I not have bass type "subwoofer" and clarity "xhfi"?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] yung40oz84:
You may have the wrong version of Viper4android installed?

It tried these settings in my car audio (Sony) and it worked good. I further optimized and was able to make more ambient sound. I will share my settings soon as i am still working to fine tune more.

[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Here is a demo of my Fire TV setup. This setup has live TV, ROM Collection Browser for game emulation (NES, SNES, N64) with Xbox 360 Wireless Controllers, NFL Game Pass, and everything else Fire TV and XBMC have to offer. We use the Fire TV as our only media device in our main living area. The goal of this setup was to have a single device to replace all the other devices used for various media functions. Let me know what you think! This particular setup is running SPMC.

[YOUTUBE]PrRNqrZmFfE[/YOUTUBE]
[Fire TV General] dillfever:
looks pretty dam good.......
[Fire TV General] Shinyhead:
WOW that looks amazing! Which theme are you using for SPMC? Could you list the addons you have enabled?
[Fire TV General] chrootz:
I envy your spmc, and I tried run spmc 13.3 version gave me a random crashed (completely stock except subtitles add-ons).
[Fire TV General] doblecero:
Which skin is that one? And.. what are you using as controller to get that pointer on the screen?

Looks amazing! Enjoy it!
[Fire TV General] martian21:
For those like me who didn't notice the title of the YouTube clip - the skin is Eminence. Don't know how I missed it the first time...
[Fire TV General] MrUnknow:
Is the netflix app shown in your video the android netflix app? The NFL Gamepass too?

How can I add an installed app like netflix, chrome or amazon prime video to the bottom line?
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Martian was right, the skin is called eminence.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Enabled addons:

NFL Game Pass

MLBMC (mlb.tv)

ROM Collection Browser (game emulation)

XBMC Library Auto Update

The rest are just standard xbmc functions or Android apps like:

Netflix

WatchESPN

TWC TV

HBO Go

Fire TV Launcher

Google Play Music

Google Play Store
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Eminence is the skin. F10 Mele Pro is the remote used for the air mouse.

Thanks for the compliment!
[Fire TV General] MrUnknow:
How can I start the android apps? How do I add the android apps to the bottom icons? Like netflix.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
The Netflix app is the one that is available on the Fire TV amazon app store.

The NFL game pass is an xbmc add on that can be found here https://github.com/Alexqw/xbmc-gamepass
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Add the android apps to your xbmc favorite list then in the eminence skin go to settings and you can modify the bottom row of icons. Can't remember step by step, but it's pretty simple.
[Fire TV General] rotor00ter:
Awesome set-up. How do you set-up the Xbox 360 wireless controller to use with the emulators and which emulators do you recommend?
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
Nice video... And really like you recommend my favorite app AFTV Utility...

I was wondering if you ever found a solution for the XBMC Amazon Fire TV Issue with Xbox 360 Controller ???
[Fire TV General] D33H:
Very impressive! Is your AFTV rooted as it seems to boot directly into SPMC? Also, have you tried PSX emulation with rom collection browser? Epsxe runs perfectly on my AFTV but i couldn't get it to run using RCB. Also, as space is an issue for PSX roms due to their size is this why you are only using Nes/SNES/N64 roms or have you external storage/NAS hooked up?

Finally, are you using the live tv addon/simple PVR client for XBMC for live channels? OR have you hooked your AFTV up to some sort of digibox/receiver?

Sorry for all the questions but if you don't ask you'll never know..
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
I haven't found a solution. It's annoying but isn't that big of a deal for me...

My Fire TV is rooted. I haven't tried PSX yet. I'm only doing NES/SNES/N64 because those are the only old games I play currently. I have the ROMs loaded on a thumb drive that is connected to the AFTV.

I'm using the XBMC client for live TV. It was simple to setup using my NextPVR backend.
[Fire TV General] danknasty:
Sorry if this is a noob question but how do you get the movies right in your xbmc video section without having to go to to an actual addon.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Just go to the movies section of xbmc and add a movie file source. Once you add the file source, it should automatically scrape the movie information for each movie in your library.
[Fire TV General] danknasty:
I've been trying to do this for genesis but I don't see any of the folders to add like latest releases or most popular. Do I have to manually add each movie to my library?
[Fire TV General] bradr00lzd00d1:
How did you get it to where when you push the home button it takes you back to the xbmc home screen?
[Fire TV General] KingR8:
Awesome setup! Does the F10 Mele Pro's keypad also work for inputting text in SPMC?
[Fire TV General] nappster:
It´s really good !!

If some Tutorial avaible for this setup ?
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
The version of SPMC I'm running can run as a launcher. So after installing it and running it, just hit the home button and it will prompt you asking which launcher you want to use. I set mine to always use SPMC.

Yes it does.

I can help you with specific parts of it, but it would take a while to put together a full tutorial of how everything is setup. I sadly don't really have the time to go through all of it. Are there any specifics pieces you would like more info on?
[Fire TV General] danknasty:
Which mod asks you to select a launcher? What I am musing right now just automatically selects a launcher for me when I hit home and if I hold it I get a menu of recent screens.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Are you running XBMC or SPMC? I'm running SPMC. After first run of SPMC, I hit the home button, and it prompted me with a launcher selection. I selected SPMC as the default.
[Fire TV General] danknasty:
I've ran both but I've never been given the choice of which homescreen to use it always just auto selects one for me.
[Fire TV General] KCFish:
There are several methods for installing SPMC, and some of them don't automatically provide home button launch. If you go to the SPMC website that bradwatson linked in your post, you will see that you can download a launcher and non-launcher version. Now the default version is the non-launcher version. It used to be the other way around. Did you download the launcher version and sideload that?

In addition, you have to be rooted. And you need the XPosed Framework installed in addition to rbox's XPosed module or similar that allows alternate launchers.

Here's info: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2786618
[Fire TV General] danknasty:
I'm rooted and I do get a quick menu that shows up when I hold home button but no screen that allows me to select launchers. It may be that i side loaded the wrong spmc like you are saying I thought there was only one version.
[Fire TV General] KCFish:
I never got any screen that allowed me to select either. And I installed SPMC launcher version specifically, but it wouldn't work on its own. It didn't work until I installed Xposed and rbox mods.
[Fire TV General] felonius:
So after this will still able to watch those default PRIME videos, instant videos?
[Fire TV General] felonius:
Hi, where are u based?

Can help to setup 1 FTV also?
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Yes amazon video still works. Which part do you need help with?
[Fire TV General] felonius:
Actually the first things to do?

Root? etc..
[Fire TV General] acclez:
hi

hi bradwatson, i want to ask,

did you install link2sd or use this method? http://xdaforums.com/fire-tv/general/mounting-external-usb-to-data-t2889319

because i have problem storage when xbmc update libary movie,tv series, it use so much storage

Thank You
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
I'm using StickMount for external storage.

Are you using an older version of google play music? The newest version keeps crashing for me on startup.
[Fire TV General] roligov:
[MENTION=3909537]bradwatson[/MENTION] Does NextPVR rely on a tuner to be connected or an account or is it all streaming from the internet that anyone could use?
[Fire TV General] ggonxhi:
What are u using for live tv channels what addon
[Fire TV General] sm_x:
Is there a way of storing the library outside the fire tv stick?
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
I believe you can configure your advancedsettings.xml to point to thumbnails on an external source (NAS, LAN share, etc.) Is that what you are asking? None of my actual video files are store on the Fire TV, they are all stored on a share on a PC on my LAN.

I have a tuner on a PC on my local network. I have XBMC configured to point to that machine.

I haven't updated Google Play Music in a while so I guess it's an older version. I don't really use it very much. There is an actually an experimental XBMC add on for Google Play Music that works pretty well according to many users.

I'm using the NextPVR add-on which is easy to install from within xbmc. It's just a PVR client that you can install and enable.
[Fire TV General] danknasty:
Not showing background art "slideshow" for eminence. I recently tried putting this skin on another fire tv and i loaded my existing one onto the new ftv. Now I dont get the big backgroun dposters that change on the home screen and many of the other images dont load is there a way you can refresh this stuff? I tried to hit update library but it does nothing.
[Fire TV General] jpage101:
Thanks for sharing. A lot of useful info in this thread. It inspired me to work on my own setup.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
You can always remove your library sources and re-add them. That should rescan all the artwork into your library.
[Fire TV General] kmarq:
Where did you get the nice icons for things like Netflix? When I add them as favorites its using the normal app icon which looks really out of place.

Awesome setup :)
[Fire TV General] KLit75:
RCB with retroarch?

Excellent setup! Probably best I've seen on fire tv.

I've got retroarch installed because of the preloaded emulators. It works fine but going for the eye candy I can't integrate it with rcb. No fanart, covers etc.

Have you tried or heard of a way to do this or would you recommend scrapping retroarch and just using individual emulators.? I followed your link but didn't see a guide.

I'm still sticking with aeon nox because as awesome as eminence is I still prefer the look with all the fanart, episode info etc. Is the skin an issue you think?

I'm not married to it but devoted tons of time customizing and it's got everything but cover art for my games. Thanks.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
Thanks! I believe I got the Netflix icon and others from the Xperience1080 skin. Experience1080 was my favorite skin for a long time, and I just recently gave Eminence a try to see how it looked. I believe the Netflix icon was part of the Xperience1080 skin, but I'll double check when I get a chance.

Thanks for the kudos! I did try to get retroarch to work with RCB for a while because I didn't want to have to install a bunch of separate emulators, but I couldn't get it to work at all. I eventually scrapped the idea and went with mostly .emu emulators. For whatever reason I couldn't get the 360 controllers to work with retroarch, not sure why. If you ever figure it out, let me know because I would be interested. I definitely don't think it's a skin issue.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
I checked and these icons are actually part of the eminence skin. Go to skin settings and customize your home screen. Go to the item you want to configure and there is an option to change the icon. The icons I'm using are in the first directory that comes up.
[Fire TV General] swiss_lis:
Do you just download a .emu file, then point the RCB to it?

Or do you have to install/sideload?

Sorry i have had no success with Retroarch so was hoping for a simple guide to get standard emulators working. Ive got my games imported with fanart etc no problem, just cant launch them!
[Fire TV General] slarpongo:
How did you get the live tv section to work? I've never understood how to use it. Do I need to get some extra hardware to use with it or are you supposed to plug your satellite box signal straight into it?
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
My Fire TV is rooted with Google Play Store installed so I was able to install them directly on the Fire TV via Google Play. They may also be on the Amazon App Store, I'm not sure. After installing them, follow the instructions in this thread for configuring RCB to point to them. I also posted my configuration in this thread. You can use it for reference as well.
[Fire TV General] bradwatson:
You need a TV Tuner card running on a PC within your local network. I'm running a Happauge WinTV card on a Windows machine on my local network. It's not the best card out there, but it works for my particular setup. The TV Tuner card will take a coax cable input (cable, satellite, antenna) and act like a TV. Once this TV Tuner backend is setup, you can simply point XBMC to that machine on your local network. It's a fairly involved process. I would recommend doing some research on the web if you are planning on taking a stab at this. Before buying a tuner card, you need to make sure that your cable or satellite source can be viewed via the tuner card.
[Fire TV General] jmcguire525:
Do you mind sharing your laucher.py file? For some reason I can't get mine setup properly for RCB
[Fire TV General] BVMays:
More kudos

I saw your video on YouTube and it pushed me over the edge and I bought a Fire TV. I've been using PLEX for the last few years but I thought I'd give XBMC a try again. I was definitely missing out. I've got eminence set up and movies/tv shows/music/android favorites. It looks great with that skin. I used a script to move all storage off to a ssd so I wouldn't have to worry about space.

Next is setting up Live TV and games. I've been looking at a hdhomerun2 for my sucky cable. I also have an EyeTVHD for Directv, but I doubt I can get that set up with the Fire TV. I've never set up an emulator, but they look like a lot of fun. What was the issue with using 360 controllers? I read somewhere that you need to pair the controller on a pc first before using a dongle with the Fire TV. Have you ever used pseudotv? I've been looking at setting that up too, it looks pretty awesome.

Thanks for the inspiration man. Keep us posted!
[Fire TV General] Neo3D:
Did you install Kodi on your server as well? Just wondering how the AFTV gets access to the tuner on your server?
