[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] KjK89:
This guy is giving sound advice and seems to know what he is talking about.

I have bought several devices and have come to find that MINIX has the best boxes and makes the most progress with them. Plus it seems to have the biggest development community pumping out ROMS and early releases of firmware.

I currently have both and MINIX x8-h and a MINIX x8-h plus. I normally keep them rooted and on the latest FinlessBob ROM. They play everything I throw at them, from locally stored videos, to YouTube, to Amazon Prime or Netflix, or other less talked about streaming apps.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ichijoe:
Can you play Netflix in HD on those Boxes? What about Google Play Movies?

I don't think I've ever seen a build.prop from a Minix Box yet. But, for the rest of those Amalogic Boxes... Including the newer k200 (S812 SoC's). The Line:

media.amplayer.widevineenable= has been set to false. The upshot here is that Google Play Movies WILL NOT WORK, until you flip that bit to true, and reboot.

As to Amazon Prime... I wasn't able to get it working on my MXIII... A case of to many inter-operating Apps.. Install this, to install that so that App A) can call upon App b) (The Player), to work... Oddly enough the Kodi add-on just WORKS! Even with HD stuff... As for Netflix though? I'm not a customer of theres just yet.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] KjK89:
Good questions, but my answers my not be the most fulfilling. When I first tried Netflix, I was using a friends account and did not specifically test HD playback. I do not use Netflix at the moment, so I'm not able to test again.

As for Amazon Prime i followed the app (a) to app (b) stuff and I think the way it works now is when I click on the app icon it actually takes me into the browser and allows me to select the movie I want to play and then it opens in MX Player.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ichijoe:
Yeah this to me seems wrong on soo many levels... I shouldn't have to jump though hoops just to watch something. It also doesn't do much to help when the stuff they have (Amazon Germany), is third-rate junk at best, and isn't even worth the One off payment of 50€ per annum at worst. Thankfully my two-week cooling off period is about to close soon ( I think tomorrow, or Thursday IIRC)... I shall definitely be making sure to cancel my 30 Day Trial ASAP!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] KjK89:
I hear you! I think its important to note, that this is a problem caused by Amazon tho, not the device manufacturer. Amazon does not have a very effective way of accessing prime videos on Android. I use prime because I do a lot of shopping on Amazon, so to me the movies are a bonus and now that I have it set up the right way, it really isn't too hard to use.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Ichijoe:
But, it is Amazons problem... The world is moving the hell away from MicroSoft's Silverlight as fast, as it can... Perhaps you might have heard that Goggle finally started removing NPAPI from Chrome... The bit that made Silverlight work on it? And, we're talking about PC's here now, NOT Android!

Besides I have to ask myself... If I must use something as bad as the MX Player (As more in what it devolved into, then what it used to be!), to render Amazon Prime in the first place.... Why even bother with any DRM in the first place? And, IF I needed such a Renderer, to, get this working... (Something that truly escapes me!), This might explain to my why I'm otherwise unable to use it outside of XBMC/Kodi. Which does work.

But, I suspect the "Difference" between you, and I is that you're using Amazon.com (US) - With the best Content going... While I'm on Amazon.de (Germany), - Which only has utter CRAP on it! As to the other "freebees" I don't own a Kindle, and I don't need any Free Shipping from them either. I joined this "venture" from the other-side as a VOD Provider with other goodies tossed in. Perhaps that was my failing here...

I have two MXQ android tv boxes in the house and they're working great, I also have rooted firmware installed on them which also includes gamepad support but I haven't tested that as I brought the mxq solely for using kodi.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kraceyC:
Yes this device is not bad. Tronfy is also a tv box brand not that hot. Mind if i ask where did you offer it?

As i see a thread about Minix Neo X8-H. The tv box comes with an M1 air mouse. Many uses for the air mouse. Light and with great material.

So if MX-IV comes with one, that's perfect
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] imnotgoats:
The Tronfy MXIV doesn't come with an air mouse, but those are pretty cheap. Aside from that, it's a great box. Just waiting for Lollipop firmware and it will be perfect (as the Android TV Play Store and a lot of the apps are 5.x only).
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weinerwad3000:
So I've been running CM 12 for about a month and today I went to update and afterward my phone was unuseable. After the update I started getting the pop-up gmail has stopped so I uninstalled it. After that I couldn't use the play store. It kept asking me to sign in even though I was already signed in. I cleared cache and deleted data in play store and still the same problem. After This I tried reinstalling gapps to see if that was the problem. After reinstalling gapps my phone kept saying unfortunately phone has stopped working. After clicking ok it would come back up immediately, rendering the phone unusable. I couldn't even get to the desktop to try to get into settings. Before the update I backed up my rom so I was like, "Good for me, I saved the day." Nope. After installing my backup same problem. The only way for this problem to stop happening was to reinstall cm12 all together wiping system and data. I tried reinstalling my backup hoping it would work but I get the same problem.

What's going on here? How do I get my old rom back. I need my contacts back. I don't care about anything else as much. It would be nice to get everything but contacts is the main thing.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ftanner:
I am trying to update my Note 4 OTA and am running into an issue..

Both my phone and SD card are encrypted. My phone is stock. Previous updates I have done via Samsung Kies.

When I update it, it downloads the package and goes through the reboot sequence. When it starts the update process, it gets to about 2% and then says that the update failed and reboots and restores the previous settings. If I try to update via Kies, it goes through all of the screens and when I click the OK on the screen that says to not try to use the phone during the update, it just goes off into lala land and doesn't do anything at all..

Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be going on?

Thank you for your assistance.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] tanjiajun_34:
Hi guys! I just upgrade from a Nexus 5 to S6 Edge. I am having an issue with this new phone not sure if it is affecting everyone or just me... :/

I am having an issue to swipe on some applications. One of the application is Swiftkey. I find it very hard to swipe to delete whole word. (You need to have Swiftly Flow disabled.) My music player (ZPlayer) i also hard it hard to swipe to skip songs as well. Is it just me or everyone is having this issue? I have used those touchscreen tester application and find my touchscreen to be fine.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] negative13:

[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] Smoothface:
Had a problem with swipes being interrupted and taps registering multiple times. Got the screen replaced through warranty and the problem is gone. The problem seemed to be caused by pressure making the digitizer make contact with some other part causing erratic touch response.
[Galaxy S6 General] markdexter:
I owned the phone for just over 2 weeks.

First of all, I like android because it's not IOS. I don't like Apple. The whole Apple company annoys me.

I used to get annoyed when I heard Apple where suing Samsung for copying there patents, so on and so forth.

I couldn't help but notice straight away how much the S6 looked like IPhone 6, especially at the bottom of the phone (speaker grille).

Then I started looking at what Samsung have done, they took away what made them stand out.

They took away removable battery, and give us a very average size battery, but push wireless charges.

Worst of all they took away micro SD card!!!! Wtf

Then Samsung ask for a ridiculous price for different versions 32gb.....64gb.....128gb....... That's what apple does.

I used to be able to pick up 64gb micro SD card on sale for about $30. That option has gone.

The battery life on the S6 is poor. Let's be honest, everything I read tells me to turn off all sorts of features to make the battery last longer. It's a smart phone. I might as well buy a Motorola RAZR flip phone.

I'm just so disappointed Samsung have taken a huge step backwards and become who they used to fight. (IOS).

The fast Charging feature is cool, only if you want to carry your wall adapter and cable round with you all day, just incase!!!! The branded Samsung wireless charger should have come with the phone, not a $59.99 extra fee.

The only thing I will miss is the camera. It was excellent. But that's it.

Touchwiz was still sluggish, I experienced redraws more than I should have, and I still found it bloated with battery hogging apps.

I'm sick of Samsung. This is just my opinion remember.
[Galaxy S6 General] DevonSloan:
You just perfectly outlined all the exact reasons I almost didn't get the S6 to begin with. Every year I can't wait to see the next Galaxy S, and this year Samsung made an iPhone running Android. Even though I hate Apple, my iPad is a huge part of my work and personal use, so I decided that the S6 had failed enough that it was time to just switch to iPhone 6+ and join the sheep.

BUT... I didn't. And the only reason I didn't was because it was time for me to upgrade now and I didn't want to get the iPhone 6 with the new one coming in Sept., leaving me with an old phone for two years. (I don't know where you are, but remember that in the US most of us are on 2 year phone plans.) So I just got the S6.

And I'm loving it. And I know I'd love the iPhone less. But I hate supporting Samsung making bad decisions.
[Galaxy S6 General] zathus:
Sorry but this is such a useless thread. Everyone of your reasons were very well know before launch. Yet you bought it anyway. Non of that was at all a suprise. Sorry your unsatisfied but you knew what you were buying.

[Galaxy S6 General] daniel4653:
In my opinion they finally did something right for the first time in the last two years. People were always complaining about the build quality of Samsung phones. They finally build IMO a very nice phone, yes they did copy the looks of the iPhone a bit, but it looks great. One thing that did always bug me was the speaker being on the back of the phone. Now its on the bottom producing better sound when watching videos or listening to music.

[Galaxy S6 General] DevonSloan:
None of the people I know that bought Galaxies had a problem with the build - it's always just been the iTurds that say how "bad" and "cheap" Samsungs are compared to their precious. I never had a problem or concern with the plastic body.

As for the new speaker placement, it's horrible. I'm constantly accidentally covering it just from natural hand placement when watching videos horizontally.
[Galaxy S6 General] daniel4653:
I haven't had a problem covering the speaker on my S6 or my iPhone 6 when I had it.

[Galaxy S6 General] markdexter:
Countless reviews on YouTube where saying how debloated it is, how it's the best touch wiz ever!! Maybe the obligated to say that??!

However it still felt like touch wiz to me, lag, redraws.....

In Canada 32gb model costs $750. The 64gb model costs $860!!! That's what annoys me, I can buy a 32gb micro SD card for a third of that 110$ jump.

Samsung have copied everything Apple has done, and it's pathetic.
[Galaxy S6 General] zathus:
Look..I don't doubt your reasons for being unhappy but like I said..it's been covered! That horse is dead and beaten. No reason to stick a shotgun to its head.

My PERSONAL experience is this is the best phone I've used hands down. I had a droid turbo, spent a week with the m9 and have had plenty of time with my wife's iphone 6. The s6 wins hands down.. for my needs.

From your complaints maybe the g4 will be a better fit for you
[Galaxy S6 General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
Right...because apple has 2k screens, ir blasters, a payment system with MST support, multiwindow, etc. Please, Samsung is way out in front and Apple is trying to play catchup. Wish a mod would come and rid of this useless thread.

It must be so oppressive to have someone expressing their opinion.
[Galaxy S6 General] TL24:
Hardware wise yes it's way out in front but software wise Android as a whole still hasn't caught up to iOS whether you like it or not. Not everyone needs widgets and endless customization's on their phone, some of us simply want a phone that works out of the box without needing to root or having to wait months for an update to address the memory leak issues.
[Galaxy S6 General] markdexter:
I started this thread because, I thought it might help people who are on the fence whether to buy it or not, I took the plunge and bought it then realized I made the mistake so I expressed my OPINION.

Also if this is such a useless thread don't read it....and better yet don't reply to it. (I'm the idiot)

Samsung has took a serious step away from its loyal customers by asking for more money for there devices and removing everything that made them special. You basically have an iPhone 6 running a bloated and ugly version of Android.

Once again my opinion, if you don't like it move on. Don't feel the need to be a keyboard tough guy and start calling names.

Childish.

When will Galaxy S6 battery begins to fail? I just bought the phone and started to worry about battery life already. I am interesting in a 4200mah external battery case from mpj, is battery case convenient to use?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Airstream25:
The typical estimated life of a Lithium-Ion battery is about two to three years or

300 to 500 charge cycles, whichever occurs first. One charge cycle is a period

of use from fully charged, to fully discharged, and fully recharged again. Use a

two to three year life expectancy for batteries that do not run through complete

charge cycles.

Rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries have a limited life and will gradually lose

their capacity to hold a charge. This loss of capacity (aging) is irreversible. As

the battery loses capacity, the length of time it will power the product (run time)

decreases.
