[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
What version of the Vudu app did you have on your NP that works? I tried several with no success (see below).

I am seeing the same thing. I went back and installed older versions of the app and it did the same, crashed after a few seconds. Going further back (4.1.10 and 4.1.7) and the app wouldn't even open. Though I never tried before now I thought Vudu did work on the NP at some point (pretty sure someone told me 4.1.7 did).

I guess I have to stick with my Roku for Vudu.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CEG3rd:
I was able to install the APK without any issues on my NP and it showed up as a app on home screen, but I was not able to log in, though I tried several times and was certain I made no mistakes entering my password.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
Recently with the current version? When I did it a few days ago I could log in fine. Just couldn't play anything without it crashing.

Very frustrating that the same apk works on the Amazon Fire TV, Shield, Mii Box and probably many others. But not on Google's own Android TV player. Someone said it was a licensing issue, with Vudu not wanting Google to have it. Didn't make sense to me. If that's the case why would they allow Amazon?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CEG3rd:
I'm sure it's the latest Android TV version. VUDU comes installed on Mi Box and works perfectly. I think I tried installing it on a fire TV box a while back and it failed. , though in my experience Shield, which I can't afford, aside fire TV is the most complete streamer I've used. I have a Roku Ultra and a 1st and 2nd gen fire TV boxes and my first choice is the gen 1 box, because it has optical out. I'm enjoying playing with my NP, but fire TV is reliable and dependable. I tried the Mi Box and at first I thought it might be superior to the NP, but after a few days I decided it is not, except of course for VUDU. :D
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
The current Vudu apk works fine on his Amazon Fire according to a friend but I'm not sure which gen he has. Even though its useless I still have it on the NP and I just logged in fine. Love the irony of the message: "Success! You're now ready to enjoy VUDU on your Android TV device. blah, blah". No I'm not. "Encountered problems during playback. Please restart VUDU and try again."
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CEG3rd:
Interesting and thanks for the tip. I just used the same APK 4.1.20.46605 to install VUDU on a fire TV and it worked perfectly. Maybe I used the wrong form of APK before.

And ...... was just able to log into VUDU on my NP for some dang reason, but I ran into the same issue of not being to really use it. On both of my fire TV's it works as it should.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaiyo Droid:
I've tested using versions 4.1.13, 4.1.15 and 4.1.20. All install, log in and open fine. I get that same error reported above when I try to stream in HDX quality. However, switching the stream quality to SD works perfectly. Not ideal, but it does work. Does anyone know if perhaps VUDU's HDX quality stream contains a codec or something that's incompatible with the Nexus Player?

Side note, 4.1.20 seems to be a bit glitchy (artifacts during playback), but the previous two mentioned seem to operate perfectly stable (aside from the HDX crash).

Can also confirm every VUDU Android TV .apk version from 4.1.13 and up work fine on my Fire TV Stick 2nd Gen; HDX streams and all.

EDIT: Could it perhaps be that the VUDU Android TV app only comes in an ARM version and may not be optimized for x86 architecture?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
Just about gave up on this but just installed the latest Vudu Android TV app (4.1.21.51938) and it appears to work on the Nexus Player.

lmk if you or anyone else finds the same.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
I'm guessing no one is even interested in this anymore? I didn't use Vudu on the NP in ages but it did previously work with the version above. Unfortunately I had to update and now its back to not working, encounters a problem during playback. Can't even get it to play in SD as it force closes too fast. Sucks that Vudu works on Amazon Fire, Nvidia, etc but not on Nexus Player.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
Had to update again (4.45) and now I can't even log in. Such a shame that people can sideload the same apk on Fire TV and it works fine.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jblaylock:
The Oct 1st version is working on my NP.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
4.2.53.116291? Not for me. Same issue as always, try to play an HDX video and it "encounters problems during playback" and kicks me out. SD appears to play fine, as it previously did. But like before I can only play SD if I own it in SD. Anything HDX theres no way to switch to SD (Watch HDX is the only option). And I wouldn't want to watch in SD anyway.

Do you get HDX to play? If so did you do anything special? So stupid how so many apps don't work on the NP. And now with people's getting bricked for no reason this thing is really useless.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jblaylock:
I didn't try any HDX, I'll try that tonight.

Yeah, I hate that Google has abandoned it. I also have a Mi Box and the newer Mi Box S. Those are working great, and I may be replacing the NP soon.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bru20:
I'll bet you can't get HDX to work, but lmk either way please.

As for the NP itself I'll pass along what everyone tells me when I say no apps work, "It's not Google's fault, its the app developer's fault, they gave up on it." Whatever the reason, its disappointing.

[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] Leostaley:
So, I'm trying to follow the instructions, but when I get to this following part,

I get completely stumped.

1. What the heck does it mean, "paste the code in BLU menu of Flashtool"?? I need step by step instructions on how to do that.

You see, because when I click the "BLU" button in flashtool, it doesn't bring up a place to paste something into.

The "further video instructions" didn't help

AT ALL

, because the video never uses Flashtool!

So, then, at that point, I tried just using the instructions of the video instead, but when it got to the part about installing the fastboot driver, my folder Android\sdk\extras\google, DOESN'T HAVE A "usb_driver" folder! How do I get it??

I got my bootloader unlock code.

I have installed flashtool.

I have installed android studio (because I couldn't figure out how to just install "sdk tools")

I downloaded the adb drivers file, Xperia_XA_driver.zip, and unzipped it, and have the folder Signed_so0116_driver on my desktop.

I downloaded the fastboot driver zip, and have the android_winusb.inf file.

I have no idea what to do with them.

I have downloaded the file boot-XA-SS-33.2.A.2.73.img. I don't know what to do with it.

I have downloaded the superSu zip from their website as linked.

I have downloaded recovery-TWRP-XA-SS-EXT4-3.1.0.img as linked, because I have the single SIM.

I tried using the Flashtool-drivers.exe found in the drivers folder of Flashtool, but it didn't have the drivers for the Xperia XA!

How do I tell flashtool that I have the drivers??

Please help me, someone.

Please, provide me some step by step instructions on what exactly to do with my bootloader unlock code and the drivers (and other files) I have downloaded.​

Thank You.
[Sony Xperia XA Questions & Answers] okhayko:
Sorry about my English, but:

1. If you got your phone's driver in your computer, when you plug your phone into PC, it will auto install driver so your PC can detect your phone (MTP, ADB, etc...)

2. Fastboot driver will help your PC detect your phone when your phone in fastboot mode.

3. If you have ADB, you will abe to flash *.img file into your phone. modified boot.img file will help you not bootloop when you flash recovery file. If you want to root your phone, you must flash that boot.img file and recovery.img file via fastboot, then you will able to install SuperSU via Recovery.

If you love MOTO CAMERA and Custom Rom and are struggling to make it work at higher Screen DPI level then you in the right place. The reason behind me loving MOTO CAMERA is its neat and fairly easy UI and also MOTO CAMERA is very responsive while taking snaps/videos, but there is one big problem with higher Screen DPI (DPI more then 430p) level breaks MOTO CAMERA UI and you won't be able to operate it . So few days back i came across Moto X play nougat update (Soak Test version) and i ripped moto camera apk from there and i put it on my RR Rom which is 7.1.2 with 480p DPI and guess what when i installed MOTO CAMERA APK it works :laugh: and i can now use it without any problem. This MOTO CAMERA APK is Standalone apk and can be installed like normal apk.. you can find the download link below.

[General Questions and Answers] bwze:
So around a week or so ago, I started getting this unsupported SD card message. I have seen this happen in the past with the last OS version and would simply reformat the card since it was seemed to be the easiest way to get things back to normal. Now, however, the phone will not format it. It tries and then delivers the message "command '7 volume partition disk: 179,0 public' failed with '400 7 Command failed'" Every time I attempt another reformat, the first and last number (7 above) increment by one.

The first logical conclusion that I came to was that the SD card is corrupt or bad. So I took it out and with a reader, attempted to access it with my my Windows laptop. I could browse the card with no problem so I copied the data and then reformatted the card to FAT32. After reinserting into the phone, it still won't format and I get the above message.

I, again, thought maybe it was the SD card so I tried another. Same thing....tried another....same thing. I've tried multiple cards no with no difference.

The first SD card is a Transcend 32GB Class 10 card and the other cards I tried are all Samsung 8GB Class 10. The phone is running Android version 7.0.

I have attempted the following with no change....factory reset, wiped the cache, booted into safe mode, and reformatting the card using both Windows DiskManagement (both quick and slow method) and GParted.

A search of this forum returned a few hits related to this type of error message but no apparent resolution or cause. Everything is pointing back to the phone as the culprit, but I'm just not sure if it's software in nature or hardware. I'm hoping it's the first as that would lead me to believe there is a possible fix for it.

Anyone have any ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] bwze:
So I just got off of a chat with a Samsung support representative and they've instructed me to send the device in for repair. Unfortunately, this begin my work phone, I can't afford to do this since other than the SD card, the phone works beautifully.

I did ask the rep what they got in the way of a search return for the message shown above and was basically told no. I do find it hard to believe that though since there are numerous people who have experienced similar incidents.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jbraucht:
I ordered a ZTE Axon 7 Max from china using eBay, and it came without the Play Store. I couldnt find it on the chinese ZTE store, and sideloading the apk let me install it but it wont open. Its in the open apps key but it won't load, like its blocked. Anyone have a fix? With how long it took to get it here and deal with the non-English speaking employees of this electronics sales group, I'd rather not have to send it back, but without rooting it and flashing another ROM it seems like this phone is nearly useless as an android without the Play Services being able to be used. This is a very frustrating situation, if its device specific I'm going to be livid that it wasn't in the description that it should only be purchased by Chinese clientele and not a functioning device outside their country...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
Lol you need much more than just the play store app... There are a bunch of other apps that have to be installed on the system to make everything work. For example Play Services

It IS a frustrating situation but you could have avoided it by investigating first. Chinese phones never come with Google apps, only some phones that are previously unlocked and tampered with by the sellers come with it preinstalled. What you have to do to install Google stuff is unlock the bootloader (I don't even know if there's a guide anywhere to do that, since I heard very little about the Max), install TWRP, and flash OpenGApps or BeansGApps

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Teet1:
The axon 7 max i would say is a completely separate device from the axon 7, and unfortunately does not seem to even have development for it on XDA, since it has a snapdragon 625 processor compared to our snapdagon 820. So if you thought you got it because of the "max" branding and thought everything in this forum will work for you, then you're wrong my dude :( but hey if you figure out how to unlock bootloader, install TWRP, remove verity and install Magisk, you could possibly create development threads in the Android General forum and Android Software Development forum for the 7 Max, unless there already is.

And hey still, perhaps you could try some of the development stuff from here, but I won't take responsibility for bricking your device.

It sais "Axon 7" in the title, not A2017X, right? C2017 is an "Axon 7" too... It's the Max version of the Axon 7. Isn't it?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
Nope. Phones don't work that way man...

They could have called that phone the "Blade V958" and you would not make this dumb argument.

What SOC does the Max have? SD65x?

Think about it this way:

-There are 3 variants of the Axon 7. The A2017, the A2017G and the A2017U. Cross-flashing kills the radio or even wipes the IMEIs.

There are 3 phones that fall under the Axon 7 category: Axon 7, Axon 7 mini, and Axon 7 max. They are A2017X, B2017X and C2017X. The Mini has just recently gotten a tool to unlock it. It has nothing to do with the Axon 7's. THEY ARE DIFFERENT PHONES

There are two variants of the Moto G 2. Titan and Thea. One has 4G and the other hasn't. Cross-flashing bricks the phones. (If you actually modded the files so that they would flash)

In these two examples these phones have exactly the same SOC. SD820 for the Axon 7, SD40x for the G 2.

Now think about what would happen if you flashed anything from another SOC to the phone...

Don't try to force the argument. You can't even use the same tools for unlocking because axon7tool will write in another address and you'll hopelessly hard-brick your phone forever.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] jacob_s:
I can't consistently reproduce it, but it has happened several times already. Every so often the phone will inject a nasty electronic squeal into the sound output, particularly noticeable on Bluetooth. I originally assumed it was just a lost Bluetooth packet or something, but then when I turned off the receiver the sound continued to come out of the speakers intermittently for about a minute! I have Jaybird Bluebud X headphones and my car connects via bluetooth as well.

I've also had issues with the phone audio getting super choppy on initial connection, and the Bluetooth module seems to have major interference with at least one of the 2.4Ghz Wifi bands... unfortunately the precise band that the router in the gym picked, so bluetooth audio + wifi is basically impossible (constant stuttering).

Anyone else having issues?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] ticklemepinks:
Nope not here ???
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Cryosx:
I've definitely had the squeal. I also had the low volume over Bluetooth while in call bug.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] jacob_s:
I don't really have a recent phone to compare to, but the M8 never did that even as the rest of the hardware has been slowly dying these last few months. I guess it's more noticeable since on Bluetooth I'm usually in my car with the volume up... The sound is like fingernails on a chalkboard ?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] mhajii210:
I got that high pitch noise a couple of times on two different HTC U11 phones from the bottom speaker I think (not using a headset). It happened both times when I was using Chrome on a particular web page. I closed the page and it never happened again on my first phone. I exchanged that one due to a minor display defect and same thing happened on my second phone. On both phones it happened early on once I had everything setup and never happened again. On both phones the BoomSound notification appeared due to an ad on the webpage. Must be some weird software glitch. I do have my phone connected to my Gear S3 via Bluetooth. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. At first I was worried that there was a hardware issue. It definitely sounded like the squeal noise you described here. Almost sounded like an electrical interference.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] drich66:
Ive had this noise for sure, in my car on bluetooth with music player. Not sure how to duplicate, but definatley annoying.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] henrykrinkle3:

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] mhajii210:
Sounds like most of you have gotten it when using a BT headset. Both times it happened to me I was merely browsing the web using Chrome and I was connected to my Gear S3 via Bluetooth. I wasn't even streaming anything, and I heard the squeal noise through the phone's speakers. Weird but luckily it seems to be a very rare occurrence.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Jadraker:
I've a similar problem but with Wi-Fi in 5 ghz band while making a call. If I'm in a call and at same time the phone is sending or receiving data through a 5 ghz Wi-Fi I can hear a noise or squeal. If I make a call in Skype or WhatsApp using 5 ghz Wi-Fi the squeal is more notorious. It's like 5 ghz antenna is not correctly isolated from upper speaker. If I'm in 2,4 ghz Wi-Fi or not using Wi-Fi at all the sound is okay and no squeal. I can always reproduce this annoyance.

I have HTC phones since One X and never had one without some sort of signal isolation problem. HTC 10 was the worst at this matter as touching upper frames dropped 4g signal and interrupted bluetooth.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] JohnHenryIron:
I just had this same problem. I remember someone mentioning this on the viper rom forums so I went back to find the post which was by [MENTION=4264171]mhajii210[/MENTION] and linked this thread. I have no desire to trouble shoot the problem since by tomorrow this phone will be in the mail heading back to HTC but figured I'd post what I have to offer.

I did NOT have bluetooth turned on (not at all since last reboot) I was using wifi - most likely connected to 5g but not certain. I was browsing chrome when it squelled for about 20 seconds. After it stopped all was fine. Then about 15 man later when a notification went off it did it again. I opened gallary, played a video, and did it again. Even when I recieved a phone call it did it. Everytime boomsound icon was present. Turning screen off it still continued. After a reboot, has been fine. The only thing I wish I had done was force close chrome.

I hope this info if useful.
