Well, I did have a chance to chat with the CoreCodec folks at CES. They didn't have a booth but were instead roving around the different booths for their OEM partners. However, a quick look at their site told me how to find them (send an email & wait for a txt message). I was able to spend some time with them.

They have spent a huge amount of time making their player cross platform compatible. In fact, they even showed me a version that works on the iPhone. We chatted at length about the "free" betaplayer version since they were divided as to whether it should use the old tcpmp or the newer coreplayer codebase. I thought that both it and the commercial version should share the same codebase with the free version including open source codecs such as ogg vorbis etc. This would allow us to cook coreplayer into ROMs that could then be upgraded with commercial or community developed codecs. I pointed out that while the various mobile versions of CorePlayer didn't really make much money, their intangible marketing effect would positively impact EOM business.

They said that they had essentially reversed the Qualcomm MSM7200 accelerator api and that this would be incorporated into the upcoming v1.2 Coreplayer version available on Feb 21. I also mentioned that there was a $4K bounty for a suitable Kaiser driver that they could snab for themselves and they said that probably wouldn't happen but maybe they would release the api to us to aid in our own efforts.

The points that they wanted me to emphasize here were these:

They have a lot of respect for XDA developers and feel we fill a real void in the Windows Mobile space

They support a huge number of devices and would ask us to please be patient with the release schedule.

They are working hard on a "push update" engine that will allow automatic upgrades and hope to have this in place by v1.5

I still think this player is worth supporting and hope that we truly can get our hands on a cookable betaplayer that can be easily upgraded with those codecs that require licensing.

I also think we will see very improved video playback with the next version due out in Feb.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
Yup, the old MPEG4 Part 2 (NOT Part 10, that is, H.264!) video decoding is supported by the 2700G, which, in turn, is supported by CorePlayer / TCPMP.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
720P H.264 files?! With Baseline profile and/or everything disabled (deblocking, prediction, CABAC etc)? Or, did they use plain MPEG4 Part 2 (DivX)?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Blowfish64:
Version 1.5?! We've been on 1.1 for about 8 months now. At that rate, we won't see things like that until 2010. There have been plenty of problems with CorePlayer from the beginning. Instead of fixing them they add "neat" stuff like a useless upgrade to their media library rather than real functionality. If they don't have the manpower to get their act together, they need to stop making promises they can't keep.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mr4000:
I did not encode the files myself, it where just HDtv rips from some tv series that aired earlier in the usa then overhere. Also since I changed to my kaiser, I have hard reset the mio and gave it to my gf, so I could reconfigure it again, and test it with an actual hi bitrate bluray rip 720P h264 file, but I presume in that case it will not come even close to 70%. I can test it, if you're really interested.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
On second thought, if coreplayer releases his V1.2 on feb 21st and HTC comes up with a driver solution upfront?

Guess that this 3rd party software will become less a must than

Maybe they should receive a part of the bounty then? :eek:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
It's absolutely impossible to get 70% (or, for that matter, anything) with 1280*720 non-baseline H.264 files because 720p is, horizontally, 1280 pixels, which is not supported by the mobile version of CoreAVC (it only supports widths up to 1008 or 1080 pixels - can't remember which of the two).

That is, it must have been resized - what you swa was a, say, 400 pixels-wide H.264 video.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
Are you joking? :) HTC and driver fixes? See the story of the non-Xscale touchscreen bug fix...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
Pretty confident HTC will deliver this time. some people lost their job so... things should move me think
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] FloatingFatMan:
Really? How do you know that?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
Maybe because of my location. Anyway, let's think positively and await HTC's press release towards all the sites which reported the issues.

(or a "sudden" fix on their E consumer website)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] FloatingFatMan:
Well... I hope it wasn't some poor engineer and instead the management moron who gave the OK for the devices to be released like this. Whoever made THAT call DESERVES to be fired!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
I hope(d) that it was (is) a fake story I caught from some closer to HTC persons here in Taiwan.

But, it brings us back to HTC's ambitious direction of growth and a bit phrased Jonathan gardners refers too...

Another Taiwanese Giant in which we trust lets us down

I might all hope that those bloody drivers wil come out, but business impact for HTC will (might) be bigger than most of could imagine.

If their stock shares remains stable / growing they can call themselves very very lucky. (lets await their Q1 2008 sales reports)

oeps off-topic. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mackaby007:
About time HTC felt the financial repercussions of their choices.

With the Exception of the unfortunate one's who may have lost employment, the rest sounds about right to me. We lose money each time we buy an incomplete device from HTC. I've wasted over £1000 cash in the last 15 months as a direct result of them not implementing hardware drivers (don't ask me how - it's work related).

I just want the device I invest in, to do what it was intended to do and is capable of. Hope HTC learn from their deliberate actions of withholding much needed software support for their choice of hardware in future.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
How often do you see releases from other software vendors? Case in point: Here is a link to SPB P+ change history from spbsoftwarehouse. As you can see, point releases are coming out about once a year. Like CoreCodec did with v1.1, fixes to point releases happened within weeks. Why are we holding CoreCodec to some sort of different standard? As far as functionality goes, I thought 1.1 had tons: AVRCP support, and Hermes hardware acceleration leap to mind. I think the hidden "elephant" here is really this: we were used to a free ride with TCPMP and lost this when Coreplayer was created.

That being said, I'd say that the only issue with Core that I can see is the fact that they try to support too many devices. IMO they should concentrate on the three biggest sellers based on past history (whichever those are), then adapt their pricing strategy by releasing a free version with public codecs and allowing additional codecs/functionality to be purchased. Gaining additional market share in this manner would drive their OEM business.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
Exactly my sentinents. When they announced support for the iPhone, I right away told them NOT to concentrate all their forces on the iPhone, but try to devliver, at last, a working, (more or less) bug-free Symbian version and 1.2 of CorePlayer with all the promised goodies. (I'd also add HE-AAC v2 support, but it's only promised for 1.3...)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
With the not promising reply from HTC, seems that CorePlayer v1.2 will grasp more attention again.

Though it will not solve overall lack of performance …
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NuShrike:
So you're not so sure now then. I wonder how Core reversed the API. The BREW api?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Tec1106:
Video playback

Funnily enough, I didn't even know the Kaiser had a video playback problem :s I've been watching the Heroes series using Core Player 1.1, and it's never been any problems whatsoever regarding performance :s

The overall graphical experience, though ...

(Waiting patiently on a driver fix)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
We can not be sure of anything except agreeing that our devices underperform.

And the fact about those sacked gus at HTC you refer too, one or 2 days before HTC comes with an announcement that "they do not intend to provide support-solutions" stands aloneversus a possible third party solution from CoreCodec.

Corecodec confirmed on their website that only videorendering would improve "playing flawless video" They did not said what expected benchmarks are, FPS drop etc...

1.1.3 released

See other thread about Coreplayer 1.1.3 test release which seems to be a big step towards a better performing device.

1.2 Still foreseen for Feb 21 with full functionalities, added languages etc.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dizzy33:
Where is the big step ??? I just tried CorePlayer 1.1.3, my Kaiser is still the same **** to play videos ... Can't watch a good quality video with it, still lagging ...

I do not see any difference between the 1.1.3 and the 1.0 release ...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pjwilkin:
Several people reported no increase in video. The advise was to switch to GDI mode, then switch to QTV mode

this improved video for them

I have a different issue:

some MP3 album art is not displayed in QTV mode (it is displayed in GDI mode) thus the QTV driver seems a bit buggy. I have bugged this on the relevent coreplayer web site.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dizzy33:
I tried this, but no improvement at all. I am sure that this is just advertising for the CorePlayer product. As the release 1.1.3 didn't change a thing, I don't believe that release 1.2 will do. Christmas was one month ago ...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ceevee369:
I had not time to chaeck again, but is the V1.2 version now available , and if so, did QTV playback improved (maybe theyd did some extra reg tweaking?)

Maybe HTC even copied Corecodec's to prepare their "performance" .cab :confused: :eek:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lifear:
I search a good Code Editor for Android. Since there are many Texteditors available, i didn't want to try out all of them, to find the right one. So maybe someone here can please suggest a good editor for me? In the first line, the Editor should be load fast, also with huge Textfiles with 500Kb or more. The App should also find the correct encoding for the File automatically, since i would like to use it with Windows and Unix/Linux Files. Brace Matching is needed, Syntax Highlighting for files like PHP, HTML, CSS, Apache Config and so on are welcome, but not a real must have. Also, if there would be code folding support, this would be a great thing. Its not important, if it is a paid or free app. I would purchase the app, if it is good enough. I have tried QuickEdit, which seems to be really fast, but i doesn't have brace matching. DroidEdit seems to have all features, but it was very slow on a Galaxy S7, compared to QuickEdit. With Quoda i miss Syntax Highlightning but the App crashes with large files. TurboEdit doas not load my Files either, i don't know why. So the closest things are Quoda and QuickEdit.

Maybe someone here have other suggestions? Maybe with additional feature where i could use this App also as fast Viewer for large Logfile?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gyaku_zuki:
Hi all,

I'm back to Samsung after a number of years away at HTC and LG! Last Samsung was an S2 and so I've used Odin, reflashed firmwares, rooted etc. before so know my way around this stuff in a general sense.

I got an S7 from CEX recently to replace my broken LG G3 but the firmware on it seems to be a slightly older / foreign one and I want to get onto a clean UK / EU firmware, so I can keep stem with OTAs that I see friends' S7's receiving. My current firmware is baseband G930FXXU1BPJE, build number G930FXXU1ZPK4.

I've looked on SAMMobile and can see two options for UK unbranded; XEU and BTU. So my first question is what one should I use and what the difference is?

Secondly, when I use Odin to flash whichever one is correct, will I need to repartition? Or will factory resetting after flash be enough to properly correct the CSC?

Finally, will this still show up as an 'untampered' phone, and receive OTA correctly?

Thanks for the help.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
XEU has the most updated firmware atm with a February security patch, where BTU is still on January afaik, both unbranded UK firmwares

If you flash them using CSC (Not HOME_CSC) which will reset the phone and change CSC, then you will remain KNOX 0x0 and receive OTAs for whichever CSC you choose, XEU or BTU

No need to repartition

I did read something about needing to flash to another CSC supported by the current CSC on your phone atm (Multi CSC) before flashing to the one you want to change to, but not sure about that, I've only ever switched between BTU and XEU, and BTU is multi CSC containing XEU too
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gyaku_zuki:
Thanks, I'll stay alert to that possibility. I'll go with the XEU variant and hopefully be ok. Just need to backup my stuff first.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Floppysvk:
Hello, did you have any luck changing your CSC without Re-Partitioning ?

Im in the same situation right now (DDE CSC, still on 6.0.1) and I am kinda scared after reading so many posts where people bricked their phones.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Fobos531:
Hello.

I'm looking for a new phone, my budget is around 350 USD and therefore Axon 7 (specifically the A2017G variant) has really caught my eye. I'd like to ask a couple questions.

1. Are there any known issues / defects regarding the device? Is it easy/hassle-free to unlock the bootloader?

2. I plan to have this device for a longer period of time, around 3-4 years. Is the Axon 7 a viable choice? Will it be able to hold off for that long, in terms of ROM support and general performance/usage?

3. I was also thinking of buying a Zuk Z2 Pro because it looks and sounds like an absolute beast for a very affordable price, but I'm being dubious about it. There aren't that many reviews about the phone, and it seems to be weak in terms of custom ROM support, comparing it to the Axon 7 or the likes of OnePlus. How do you think the Zuk Z2 Pro compares to the Axon 7?

4. What's up with the big black bars between the screen and the rest of the front side of the phone? Do they serve any purpose?

5. How satisfied are you with your phone? Would you recommend it to me?

Thanks in advance.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] :
1. For the device as a whole, no. I saw some people saying their Axon had really loose volume keys... A couple people with gorilla glass problems. But, these are rare cases.

2. Unfortunately I don't expect ZTE to support the Axon 7 past 2017, but I personally think it has a really good shot for lasting that period of time for custom ROMs.

3. idk

4. The capacitive buttons are embedded in that black area on the bottom, of course. On the top the LED and proximity sensor and all that are embedded in the black bit. Personally, like it. A larger glass area looks nice to me, even if it's not being used for the screen.

5. I'm pretty satisfied myself, but my recommendation for you of the Axon 7 vs the OnePlus 3T depends on whether the camera is important to you. I got this phone because I have little use for a good camera and I'd rather have these awesome front-facing speakers. I don't know much about cameras, but it's my understanding that that's the biggest area of compromise here.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Fobos531:
Thank you for the reply. Do you run custom ROMs? If yes, how is the speaker performance there? I heard some things like DAC not working for speakers on LOS/RR based roms. What does this exactly mean and is it a problem?

Another thing I've heard is that apparently Axon 7 doesn't have exactly the best radio out there. It supposedly has weaker wifi and radio. How was your experience with connecting to your cellular network and wifi?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ГАСООП:
a2017g is crap. speaker (as there's only one playing) perform bad on custom roms. i wish i bought oneplus 3t instead of this.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] pelelademadera:
thats no true, With stock rom works both... thats a problem of custom roms
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ГАСООП:
That's what I said.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Azra4:
I'm extremely satisfied with my Axon 7. There are little things I could nitpick, but nothing made me regret my purchase even remotely. For instance the capacitive buttons are not illuminated so they are hard to use in total darkness (like at night in your bed), the ambient light sensor is a little bit erratic (resulting in screen brightness being a bit erratic). At least that's the case on my unit. Of course it's always possible to turn off automatic screen brightness. The camera is not stellar in low light situations. The included apps are mostly crap - for instance the music app doesn't have something as basic as a search function. But of course there are 10,000 music apps available so it's no problem at all. The screen could be a little brighter (it's not particularly good in broad sunshine). The battery is OK but not stellar. That's about all I can think of off the top of my head.

I would absolutely recommend this phone to anybody. I particularly love the speakers and the sound quality and loudness on the headphones jack. I also liked that ZTE went the extra mile with this phone - a quick charger is included, and so is a clear PU case, a screen protector, and a set of headphones.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Fobos531:
Thank you all for you answers. Unfortunately I cannot buy this phone because I can't find a deal under 350 USD for A2017G variant. There are deals for the A2017 variant though, but I can't buy that one because it's incompatible with my service provider's network.

I have a semi-bricked N9300 dual sim from Hongkong (TGY).

No matter which firmware I try odin always fails with that dreaded "check sw rev failed" - aka the rom is not the right one apparently.

I tried the latest firmware available at samsung-firmware.net (or something) from 10th of october 2016 - but I think there was an even newer firmware installed on this thing.

TWRP is still working - so if theres a way to "downgrade" with TWRP by flashing partitions directly with DD that would work also I guess.

Please help - I tried to flash a modem part only (CP) and since then the phone is in a bootloop. Before I had it running and charging fine (combination of hongkong system partition and a customized chinese kernel which had the charging block disabled).

Is there any way to figure out which software/firmware is actually installed?
