[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shapethelola:
Well, Im on stock android on the nexus player. Its connected via HDMI only, and thats how it should work because plex for example is outputting 5.1 perfectly :/
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
"...via HDMI only" to what? Just your TV? The problem is that the Netflix app tries to handshake with the device on the other end, and if it doesn't like what it sees on the other end, you don't get the DD+ in your options.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shapethelola:
To my AVR, which should be the device on the other hand because its handling my 5.1 :) And the problem is not that I dont get the option to choose DD+, the problem is that there is no sound output when choosing Dolby Digital, stereo just works fine.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
Ah! Well that's good information. If it's handshaking fine, then my guess is that the NP is sending a format (some compressed PCM something or other or whatever it's called) that you receiver doesn't know how to translate. If it's handshaking, I'm betting the culprit is the receiver, but I know that doesn't make you feel any better. Do you have another receiver to try by any chance?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shapethelola:
Well is it ? Im just having the same problem which everybody was having before, thus this thread. Its a marantz SR6007, and unfortunately no I dont have another one :) But it should handle every format pretty well, so I doubt its that.

Were you having problems before, too? I just feel like the nexus player dudes just gave up and Im the only one left
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
I *was* having issues, but found that my TV was only returning 2-channel audio back down to the receiver (Denon AVR-687). So I upgraded my receiver and DD+ works fine now. FWIW, I now have a Denon AVR-1611, and I got it from Craigs List for about $125 I think. HDMI switching & upconversion, along with every audio format I could think of...

I'm just trying to provide some help where I may be able to.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubastevegk:
I have a similar situation, but not quite the same results. I have my Nexus Player directly connected to a Pioneer Elite SC-71 receiver. I see the DD 5.1 options in the Netflix app, but whenever I play content, it plays in stereo. I do get stereo audio coming through my speakers, so it isn't silent - but only the L and R channels light up, and only those two channels of audio play.

To make things even more confounding, for the first day or so after Netflix first pushed the update that allowed 5.1 on the NP, it worked properly in my setup. It was only after a few days when I went to watch something and I noticed I was only getting stereo sound. I tried uninstalling the app, clearing data, tried a different HDMI cable, a different port on the receiver, and even a second NP that was brand new out of the box - all with the same results.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shapethelola:
It also worked for me for a few days. And my AVR is showing stereo, too, just in my case its not playing any. So I still think this is a nexus player bug of the netflix app
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atheoncrutch:
Is this still an on-going issue people are having? I just picked up a Nexus Player and cannot get anything but Stereo PCM to play from Netflix. Nexus Player going into a Pioneer VSX-1020 via HDMI, then HDMI out of the receiver to a Sharp TV.

At first I was only hearing static/clicks and pops on the most recent official build unless I manually switched to 2.0, then I installed the Sony TV apk but Netflix still would only output 2.0 PCM even with 5.1 selected. My receiver can bitstream Dolby Digital+ just fine with a different Chromecast. KODI can also passthrough Dolby Digital and other 5.1 formats just fine to the receiver.

I thought it might be a HDMI handshake issue, as the 2.0 PCM remains the same throughout the system sounds and other apps, as if the Nexus doesn't recognize the receiver's ability to handle 5.1, but trying a different HDMI cable and CEC on/off has no effect. It's just really strange that using a Chromecast has no issues while the Nexus Player can't give me 5.1.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shapethelola:
I fixed it by changing the HDMI in on my AVR. The "media" one on my marantz wasnt able to handle it, the TV/SAT one is. Its weird, but now it works..
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atheoncrutch:
Unfortunately that was a no go for me. Tried swapping it with the input for my ps3, which bitstreams DD just fine.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubastevegk:
Sideloaded the Marshmallow update to my Nexus Player, fired up Netflix, and DD is working!
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpranal:
No 5.1 (dolby digital) even after upgrading to Marshmallow :( Receiver is a Sony DH510... not dolby digital + capable, but shouldn't DD+ be backwards compatible with "non-plus" dolby digital?

I get 5.1 working perfectly in Kodi using passthrough.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sask3m:
I get 5.1 through my Yamaha rx-a740 amp. You sure you have selected audio in 5.1 after netflix loads up? Still seems to be the only app though, no hbo go that's for sure.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpranal:
The problem is I can't select 5.1 in Netflix, it's not even an option (have double checked this against exact same content on my ps3 which does have the option).

From what I can tell online, your rx-a740 supports dolby digital plus, whereas mine does not. I'm guessing the ps3 is doing the downconversion, whereas the nexus player just passes through the eAC-3.

I think from here I'll see if I can play some content in Kodi on the NP that is encoded with dolby digital plus, just to see what happens.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benzothegreat:
I'm in the same boat - did you do this as a test? and if so, what was the outcome?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VashCZ:
I have the same problem! 14.3.2017

DD only no DD+

Why on Android TV

Kodi is 5.1,

but

Netflix does show me 2.0 options only?

Can I somehow force netflix to show me 5.1 sound option?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AusX10:
Have you tried the latest build of Netflix?

I haven't had a chance to test it yet but you might want to.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I_did_it_just_tmrrow:
THX for this reply but as I read, netflix only support DD+. DD+ had a better compression and this is very important for a company like netlix. Less data == more money :)

I hope there will be a way to convert DD+ & DTS-HD into DTS or DD but at the moment it seems that all the customer with DD or DTS (not DD+ & DTS-HD) are just alone with there problems...

Greetings by Idijt
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VashCZ:
That is what I thought. Download 5.1 DD+ sound and real time convert it to 5.1 DD

Somethign they are looking for avsforum.com/forum/90-receivers-amps-processors/2148385-dolby-digital-plus-dd-dolby-digital-dd-conversion.html :)

hello all,

can anyone list out the step by step instructions for upgrading to a new ROM.

I have a wiza-200 Qtek 9100

the specs are:-

IPL 2.25

SPL 2.25

GSM 2.25.1

OS 2.25.11.1

Protocol Version: 4.1.13.12

ROM date: 5/11/06

Also plz let me know which is the latest ROM ??

thanks in advance
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wizzzard:
Welcome to the mysterious world of ROM upgrading. There is a sticky here which many consider the bible of ROM upgrading. Read it well and when you understand the consequences, choose your ROM. When you have read all the instructions for your chosen ROM and read the feedback from other users, go ahead and upgrade.

There are many tales of woe regarding upgrading ROMs but if you read, understand and follow the instructions, you will not go wrong. Most if not all of the problems come after people do not follow the instructions

My favourite ROM is currently Farias latest

The diference between my old stock T-mobile uk ROM and Farias in terms of speed, stability, ease of use is frightening.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wiztek:
Thank You

Hi,

Thansks for your post.....It really helped me a lot.:)

I was out of town, so the delay in replying.

Aslo thanks to Faria and all the others for developing the document.

Once appreciate your prompt response.

Wiztek

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blowfly7012:
My device is encrypted, so I can't use CF-Auto-Root (CFAR) without it trashing my data partition (I think -- don't want to risk it).

So I tried to flash the SuperSU v2.19 ZIP using TWRP manually. However, that didn't work. SuperSU reports "There is no SU binary installed".

I had a look at the CFAR image and found the script that actually patches the boot image using supolicy (in cfroot/supersukernel.zip) and it seems to run

supolicy --kernel $PART $PART

So I attempted to run this myself from recovery (substituting $PART with my actual boot partition). And that did nothing.

Does anybody know the correct way to root Lollipop when you've got an encrypted data partition?

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raver27:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgbeezr1:
Yes, I hear it. This has been audible on every phone i've had in recent memory, you probably just never listened for it before. Anytime sound is routed through the speaker you get the hissing, followed by the click as the amp shuts off 2 or 3 seconds later. Sometimes it's audible through headphones also, depending on the headphones.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raver27:
Lol yeah only noticed, because when on call using speakerphone it clicks 2 or 3 times and it's just a tad louder then when turning off any other time,other wise probably would never heard it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ralf89:
I have a N910F and noticed it this morning. I here it, it's like a frying noise, and if you get close enough you here it every time a sound is routed throughout the speaker on or off.

I'm on Lollipop 5.0.1 Baseband version N910FXXU1BOC3.

I don't think it's normal, Samsung is playing around with the audio system, you couldn't turn off sound completely until this ver of lollipop and still even when audio is completely off you can here the speaker fry when something is routed to it.

[T-Mobile LG G3] nestoh:
There are no 5.0 Roms for the LG G3 D851 to begin with, and as soon as as T-Mobile let's out their OTA with the LG skin, you'll have it but I doubt it'll be on AOSP.
[T-Mobile LG G3] dbh369:
I've read that tmo Wi-Fi calling is awaiting nexus release as then it can be copied. Since that will be 5.0, it is possible that all these features might be ported but not immediately.

It's a more likely possibly that it could be ported from the nexus build. Nothing can be confirmed until it happens and devs look into it. I'm crossing my fingers for it though!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thubs:
Hey everyone,

ever since I updated from Android Kitkat to the L preview and the final release of Lollipop, I've had an issue with text messaging. I use the google hangouts app to send my text messages, I've verified my number within the Hangouts app and I've also selected it as my default messaging app. So the problem is: whenever I send a text message, the app says it's been sent through sms and money from my prepaid is taken as well, so I know it was actually processed by my carrier. But for some inexplicable reason, no one I text actually receives the message. I've tried to use an alternative app like tetra and the new stock messaging app from google with the same result. I haven't got a clue what could cause this, but because it occured after the update, I'm guessing it could be on the software side.

So has anyone experienced this and knows how to fix this? All answers are appreciated.

(I've a Dutch carrier, Vodafone)

*edit: Calling works fine.

**edit: fix: Make sure the APN of the hangouts app is the same as your phone's, apparently this may differ which causes complications

***edit: it didn't fix it, reverting to 4.4.4 did

When the sim cards were swapped, we were both able to send each other text messages from both phones and sim cards.

Well I'm not sure weather it works.. Just give a try

In the settings->apps->Hangouts->uninstall updates

and then try sending some messages ...

if that does not then update the app from the playstore again and then try sending...

If still the problem persists then it is your SIM card problem try PORT or alternate SIM CARD .
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magicmole:
Have you tried talking to your phone provider? Might be something on their end.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
No it is Lollipop + Hangouts. There is a bug in the way it handles non-US texts. Watch the outgoing number and if it changes to +xx where xx is the country code then that is where your problem is. Google Lollipop country code and you should find some info.

It is also the same reason that I can't SMS short codes from Hangouts using Google Voice because it adds a +1. Hangouts on the PC or the GV app work just fine.

For the Note 7 as it stands now, how is the refresh rate? I saw a post from earlier in the year saying that it was inconsistent and caused stutter within games. Is that still a problem?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] rchrdcrg:
The refresh rate of the screen is a constant on any display, so that couldn't possibly cause games to stutter. I do see games stutter, but I blame that more on only having 1 GB of RAM.
