I have been searching the forum trying to find a good software to watch TV with. I want to add a little more to my device and try to watch episodes that I cant normally watch while I'm at work.

What are some good softwares I can use to watch TV with? I found Sling and looking up another called "Orb". I have no experience with either. Can someone educate me if you have experience?

Are there more out there that I have not ran across?

Thanks in advance!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
orb is excellent, check it out ! (but make sure you are on an unlimited dataplan, and you have 3g in your area.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
I do have an unlimited dataplan but I dont have 3g (not in area yet)?

Will 3g make any difference?

Thanks for the reply!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
a huge difference mate, GPRS is around 50 Kbps ( a tiny grainy postage stamp for a pic and mono sound)

3G starts at 384 Kbps and maxes out a 1200 Kbps on the athena and means full screen decent quality pics and stereo sound !!

PS since upgrading to Ap 4.0 I am having a problem with this, it works but the video (windows media video) is very stop start, where as on AP 2.0 I got fluid full motion video in TCPMP
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
Makes since. Well I can only wait until Tmobile get 3G hopefully soon! I have been struggling with TCPMP and Windows Media since the upgrade to AP4.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
if you dont mind my asking, where are you ? here in the uk Tmob have fairly good 3g coverage
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
I'm in Minnesota over in the US. I have read talks about Tmo getting 3G but I called yesterday after i read your post and they said they have plans to launch it this year. But he didnt know when.

i also read that in other states they already have it up. A little confused if that was accurate information or not!

Thanks for asking!

Makes me want to move to the UK!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
trust me, you dont wish you live here, the only reason we have 3G coverage is that in comparison to the US, it is cheap to set up here, as the country is so small and densely populated, did you know that London is only around 30 miles across but home to around 7 million people, This pressure on land makes housing cost stupid amounts here.

plus we pay around $9.85 for a US Gallon (3.79 litres) of diesel
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
OMG:eek: I cant believe that many people live in such a small area. That make since about the inexpensiveness of 3G.

Wow...we complaining about 3.99 per gallon here. I cant believe gas is that much. I'm certain we will be there in 12 months, in less we find away to do something.

What would an average 1 bedroom cost in London? It cant be a crazy amount is it?

Well maybe I will come visit first!!!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] cktlcmd:
Try it here in CT for 4.40 per gallon of regular gas, and that's the cheapest.

...
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
If CT is paying 4.40 per gallon. Then it is around the corner before MN get over 4.10.

I wonder who is paying the most in the US? Clearly we arent where London is or are we?:(
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
in a really bad area, around $250,000 ~$300,000 and at the other end of the scale the sky is the limit, roughly $1,000,000 or more.

see for yourself, this is an example of one of the best area's in london, 99.9% of the normal people that live in london can't afford this, but renting a 1/2 bedroom flat will set you back around $20,000 per month

http://www.belgraviaestateagents.com/

the normal price for renting a 1/2 bedroom flat is $1000 ~$2000 per month, I pay $1400 for mine. but I live just outside london.

but at least mobile phone calls are cheap, the cheapest being 1100 anytime any network minutes or texts for $40 per month
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
I learn something everyday!!

I never knew it cost this much to live in London. Following your link, some of the flats were going for 3,500. I dont know what that would cost in dollars!!!

When i clicked on "buying" I saw some houses stating 'Leasehold 63 years' or 'Leasehold 193 years'. Excuse my ignorance...but what does that mean?

I'm also curious about the general demographics of who occupies these sky is the limit areas or the really bad areas? Are there families? College students? Single business owners? Political statesmen? :confused:Who live in these areas in London?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
LOL £3500, is the per WEEK rental value and at current exchange rates, it is 2 dollars to the pound, so that is $7000 per week or $28,000 per 4 week month.

However apart from feb we don't have any 4 week months, so to get the true monthly value they multiply the weekly figure by 52 (weeks in the year) and then divide by 12 which is $30,333 per month.

Im not 100% on the following as I rent, but as far as I know, When you buy a House in the UK you are litteraly buying the house only, IE the bricks and mortar ! with regards to the actual land the house is sitting on, you are leasing it, houses normally come with a 99 or 999 year lease bundled in with the cost of the house (measured from when the lease was last renewed not when you purchased the house) , if you buy a house and the lease expires, you dont have to move out (infact you are protected from being forced out by law) however you do have to start paying the lease holder rent, (even though you fully purchased your property several decades before) obviously this is not a desireable situation, and if there are only a few years left on the lease, it will have a serious negative effect on the value of the house !

And with regards to who lives where, people just buy what they can afford ! you have famillies with 2 kids or more living in 1 bed flats in really bad areas and the uber rich businessman/woman using the multi million dollar house or flat in central london as a boarding home, just somewhere to stay by him/herself during his/her week in work before heading back out to the countryside to spend the weekend with the family.

The average wage in the uk is around £28,000 ($56,000) people in london are supposed to get more to absorb the higher cost of living but a lot don't even earn the average, to buy a home in the UK, the banks have just gone back to the good old days stipulating you can only borrow 3 times your wages (if your by yourself) , which means nobody on average wage in london, can buy any properties FULL stop (unless they have a mammoth deposit). you have to be earning around £45,000 ($90,000) and have the usual 10% deposit if you want a shot at purchasing a £150,000 ($300,000) 1/2 bedroom flat.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Kenjari:
My goodness, the cost is crazy. The average or medium is clearly not in support of home buyers, (sounds exactly like here) but was is the home buying market look like there? Meaning....are people buying? Is the market ripe for it in conjuction to people's ability? What about you down the line....do you who hope to buy a home there in London for your family or maybe stay on the countryside?

Are there other places that use a different formula to calculate rent?

If rent cost that much, even for a flat, what is the homeless situation in London? Have the banks ever financed buyers, single or not, where they gave more then three times the yearly salary? Are there other programs that will support buyers outside the bank? gov., corp, etc.

Sorry for having a lot of questions.....this is just interesting to me! Besides, I'm trying to observe more or less the parellels between the states and your hometown.

Thanks ice_coffee
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] PBL1:
On top of that whenever you buy a house you pay stamp duty (a form of tax) for the house purchase, due to the high prices the govermet eliminated stamp duty for houses below £120.000 ($240 thau) wich is ridiculous due that the average U.K house price approaches £200 thau, then you got council tax (average £130 per month)...I stop ranting about the staggering number of taxes but I really would like to know how Spain France or Germany manage to have first class National health, public transport and council services (compared with those here) and the fourth rich country in the world does not manage.

In the other hand

Unemployed people can apply for housing benefit and income support (the rent paid and a meager amount of money every 2 weeks to help them keep going) single mums and people without income can apply for coucil houses and pay nil

NHS is free as in beer

Buses are free for children and the eldery....there are more benefits, and yes there are homeless some people abuse the system and the system is a mess but just say that in other parts of the world the needy gets nothing.

London is a sprawl rather than a concentration ( more LA than Newyork) Given the chance people will live in garden houses rather than flats, in flats will live however cannot afford a house or profesionals that can aford the £500000+ Luxury pad with river views plus the home at the country and profesionals that use a small flat during work days to avoid long conmmuting, an hour conmuting to work is the norm.

just an anecdote, an american couple both layers and her daugter came on holidays and wanted to see Nothing Hill, they liked the area as charming but after enquiring the price of one house the guy commented, "my god a million pounds for a place that fit inside of my garage"

Welcome to London

and now I better get back on topic:)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] ice_coffee:
The housing market here has just come out of a massive boom period, where they were giving everybody mortgages, and I really mean everybody, they copied the US companies by giving out N.I.N.J.A mortgages to people with N.o I.ncome N.o J.ob or A.ssets or giving people 6 times their salary with no deposit, this pushed the house prices up, as supply could not meet demand. Now that this boom is over and house prices are falling, there are lots of peeps with mortgages they can't afford, having their houses repossessed. The banks are stuck with repossessed homes that they have to sell for less than they paid for them, which is why ALL the banks have gone cautious again, back to the old days of 3 times your mortgage and deposit upfront !

My fiancé and I are saving a 10% deposit at the moment, we are at £15,000 ($30,000) but we need to get to £30,000 ($60,000) so we can buy a house, we will probably stay where we are, I work nights all over London on the underground rail network, so traffic is not a problem for me, plus it is really nice where I live.

There are homeless people in London, but there are also volunteer organisations to look after them, plus the government will give free accommodation to those who apply for it as mentioned by PBL1! although it would be really crappy accomm and in a bad area and if your a single man you will be waiting years as pregnant teenage girls (thrown out by their parents) get to jump the queue!

There are some part buy schemes where you buy a percentage of a property and another organisation buys the rest and you pay them rent for their portion (this equates to a lower monthly outgoing but adds years to how long it will take for you to own outright !

also if you are a KEY worker (Medic, Police, fire etc etc) the government will put you in discount nice accommodation, any new build housing complexes have a percentage of the homes/flats dedicated to key workers only with heavy discounts.

Feel free to ask questions, that is what forums are for !

It have small touch issues too, sometimes it opens the status bar when I tap elsewhere, but it's only happening when the screen was on for a long time, and all I have to do is turn off and on the screen to get rid of it, but I still don't know if I can recommend it, because it's still a bit annoying, and I don't play a lot of games on my phone, but if you have long sessions of gaming, like a 20+ minutes PUBG for example, that may be a problem.

Also, just a small reminder to NOT unplug the antenna connector, except if you really need it, and in this case do it with extra care, because those are very fragile and I broke mine by unplugging it while I didn't even needed to. Re-soldering is almost impossible without special equipment, but I managed to glue it and place the motherboard cover in a way that it's still correctly touching the connectors. (This connector is only for cellular data. Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS are using other antennas.)

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] tukmulin:
I love this phone and have had it for more than 2 years now, and have no plans of upgrading and will use it until it breaks down. Since I don't expect any updates any more, I was wondering if its worth rooting and flashing an Android 10 ROM (any recommendations?) this phone, especially since I want to use the Google camera that only works with Android 10. But as I read the guides and threads here, it seems rooting is more complicated than other phones.

So, is it worth it?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
To flash a custom ROM you don't need root but unlocked Bootloader.

If you didn't obtain BL code when it was easy and free or cheap, that is now complicated and expensive (although still possible)- look at some other threads where people asked about flashing and it always comes down to the question about unlocking Bootloader
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] tukmulin:
I see. Thank you. Looks like I'm stuck with stock then. Thank you! It doesn't make sense to me to root if I can't flash anyway since I won't be able to get Android 10. The phone has excellent battery life and I have no complaints about speed. Unless there are benefits to just rooting that I don't know about?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
Did I miss, but you didn't mention the most important fact - what is your EMUI version.

Supposing you are on 9.1 or 9.0 since you are asing about Android Q....

For rooting you must also flash (e.g. Recovery-Ramdisk patched by Magisk to get root, on EMUI 9), so it again comes down to the same problem about obtaining the Bootloader code (locked Bootloader prevents Fastboot from flashing) - to get a picture why is it complicated to obtain the BL code, please read like:

However, you can still do useful modding without TWRP, root, custom ROMs - that is, without the need to unlock Bootloader, see:

Hi,

I've unlocked bootloader like 4 different times, and my Widevine Turns the L1 into L3.

The main problem for me, is that i can't use Netflix and worst, can't install Samsung Gear Wearable. Even downloading both apps from apkpure, the system give a pop up message saying "App incompatible with this Android Version."

Anyone know's how to unlock bootloader without all this problems? Or how to Bypass it?

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Sukhi:
Netflix and Samsung not allowing you to download from Playstore has nothing to do with DRM. They have different policies for different regions. Try using the Safety net magisk module if that helps. Otherwise, use a modded Netflix app that works on unlocked bootloader.

[Xperia Z3 General] janvantonder:
Hello all!

Ultimately I would like to install a version of the GCAM on my Xperia Z3, cos the picture quality is just so much better than anything I know from stock.

However I'm already failing at step 1 - Getting the Camera 2 API enabled on my phone. There are some Magisk Modules and other patches floating around which I tried - No luck.

I also tried editing the build.prop file and set persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 - No luck

I use the Camera2 Probe App to check if the API is enabled but alas it always shows "Hardware Support Level - Legacy" only.

I'm currently running AOSP Extended (Android 9). Also tried with Carbon ROM and some other custom roms, all with the same, negative result.

Is there any limitation here that I'm not seeing - Does anybody know of a possibility of enabling this API on the Xperia Z3?
[Xperia Z3 General] janvantonder:
Ok, let me try a different approach - The Z3 was launched in 2015, so it's a pretty old phone.

Question1: Is the Camera2 API a pure software API, or does the underlying camera hardware also have a role to play here?

Question2: Is the API part of the ROM, or is it part of some Google framework / GAPPS? If it is part of the GAPPS, which part?

I'm curious because I tried several Android 8 and 9 custom ROMS, installed several versions of GAPPS, fiddled with the build.prop file and none of these measures enabled the Camera2 API on this device.
