On the galaxy watch you don't really need the second APK, the open Whatsapp apk. You can just go to the dialer or contacts select the contact and then select the message it will show you a selection of the messaging apps, you have chose WhatsApp and click always. There you have it whenever you wanna WhatsApp just select the contact from the contacts app or dialer. It will direct you to the WhatsApp of the contact directly. You can even have a tile of up to four contacts and just go from there to message the contacts

Hello, please help me. It works on an old Note 4 but not on the S7. Both with the same versions 2.23.1.11 beta

EDIT: I found it.

It works if into the phone there isn't a sim card. After it's possible to put it on and it still works.
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] Freak07:
Hey everyone,

before the official Android 12 release from Sony it was possible to force the display to render at full 4K resolution via "wm size" command.

With the release of Android 12 this behaviour changed and it´s no longer possible to force 4K resolution that way.

I looked into quite a few ways go get full 4K rendering back and discovered that even for supported apps, where the kernel switches to timings for 4k resolution, the actual rendering for the displayed content is upscaled 2k.

That means there unfortunately is no way, that I was able to find, to force full 4k rendering on the device as of now.

The best I could do, is to force the default 4k mode where kernel panel timings are at 4k, but content is upscaled 2k for regular usage. The result is the following: Every app, except the ones you add to game optimizer app, will be rendered like apps that sony enabled 4k resolution for.

That´s the best I can do at the moment.

This mod might impact battery life, smoothness and other things, as more resources are needed.

However I didn´t have any problems during my usage.

The difference is not huge, but it´s visible if you look for it. For example the fonts at the bottom of Google Fotos app, like Fotos, Search etc are way more crisp.

You can check in logcat if high-resolution config is used via:

adb logcat | grep "high resolution"

While having this mod flashed, the following line means high-resolution mode (panel running at 4k, content is upscaled 2k at 120fps) is enabled:

11-11 18:56:49.801 1475 1758 D SDM : HWCDisplay::SetActiveConfigWithConstraints: Setting to a high resolution config: 1

While having this mod flashed, the following line means high-resolution mode (panel running at 4k, content is upscaled 2k at 60fps) is enabled:

11-11 18:56:56.725 1475 1761 D SDM : HWCDisplay::SetActiveConfigWithConstraints: Setting to a high resolution config: 0

[Sony Xperia 1 IV] OhayouBaka:
Just flashed it and it seems to work pretty well so far, can notice a slight difference in sharpness of text and stuff with the new dtbo image flashed vs stock, only side effect was the boot animation being corrupted but it's fine once booted into Android.

A question though, should this be safe to flash for future Android 13-based firmware versions? Or is this specific to only the initial Android 13 firmware? (64.1.A.0.851)
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] Freak07:
Yes, boot animation can get scrambled up indeed.

It depends on changes done to future firmware updates. Can't foresee the future, but it's unlikely there are much changes.

It's easy to either backup dtbo.img before flashing the modded one or simply reflash Stock extracted from Xperiafirm/unsin tool though.

Google changed the behavior for native Resolution switches in the Android Settings. Just like Samsung has it since YEARS. Thanks for the alternative tho
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] joeminati:
Also note that some apps do not work with an unlocked bootloader, for security standards requires a locked bootloader.

All throughout the internetz, people have had issues with apps like banking/finance apps, Google proprietary finance apps like Wallet or Google pay, or apps store like Google play.
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] OhayouBaka:
Figured out a more elegant method that doesn't corrupt the boot animation and should work on any future firmware updates. Simply flash this Magisk Module, which contains the commands that @Miustone provided. Yes, this does still require a bootloader unlock as you are only able to apply this command with root privileges or a Magisk script.

You should also be able to use this on other devices as well running Android 12 or newer, by following these steps to edit the Magisk module .zip provided:

Just run:

adb shell

su

dumpsys SurfaceFlinger | grep hwcId

Pick your id number according to resolution/refresh rate you desire from the list.

Here is an example output from Xperia 1 IV:

{id=0, hwcId=0, resolution=1096x2560, refreshRate=60.00 Hz, dpi=428.28x427.79, group=0}
{id=1, hwcId=1, resolution=1096x2560, refreshRate=120.00 Hz, dpi=428.28x427.79, group=0}
{id=2, hwcId=2, resolution=1644x3840, refreshRate=60.00 Hz, dpi=642.42x641.68, group=0}
{id=3, hwcId=3, resolution=1644x3840, refreshRate=120.00 Hz, dpi=642.42x641.68, group=0}

Edit the service.sh file inside the Magisk module zip

service call SurfaceFlinger 1035 i32 3

At this line, replace the number at the end with the id number you grabbed from the earlier adb commands
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] Miustone:
Was about to do a Module. Thanks for sharing the Details!
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] raven213:
Thanks for this also I just found out you can add the script to fkm so you can easily switch between all resolution :)

Edit: Actually I think you can only run 2 res at a time 4k @120/60 or 1080 @120/60
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] Freak07:
nice, thanks for the information. Much appreciated!

Wasn´t aware of this command or this way to set the ID.

One thing I noticed. This way basically breaks refresh rate switching though. E.G. if a different FPS is set for any app via game enhancer that will break for some reason.

I use this little trick to set 60hz mode for video apps for example as colours and gamma are way better on 60fps, and it´s unnecessary to drive the phone at 120hz during 60fps videos.

Had a small hope this would circumvent the upscaled 2k content despite running 4k panel mode, but it´s still the same.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
After many messages and interaction with CoreCodec, I have given up.

Coreplayer on the Fuze, TP, Diamond, and Touch HD from all accounts absolutely sucks.

I have tried to get CoreCodec personnel to discuss when a fix is coming for newer devices. He dances around the topic like Fred Astaire. He won't admit that CorePlayer does not perform as advertised and expected for these newer MSM72## devices, yet CoreCodec is MORE THAN WILLING to take the money of people just discovering their software after purchasing their new HTC devices.

There have been forum bans, user deletes, message deletes, and more on their forums. People just want to know why they are getting hosed and when it might stop. There have even been postings from CoreCodec personnel about advances and the like for freakin Sony PlayStation 2's in response to our questions about our mobile devices.

Riiiiiiiight.........

SO- I say this:

Diamond, Raphael, and HD users BEWARE. Do Not spend your money on Coreplayer until we have proof version 2.0 works becaus as of now- Windows Media Player is kicking the crap out of CorePlayer when you encode your videos with these settings (Courtesy of Sketchy in the Diamond Forum):

Video Format: MPEG-4 AVC (saves as .mp4)

Resolution: 640x360 (still maintaining the original 16:9 AR)

Video bitrate: 1000 kbps

frame rate: 29.97 fps (progressive)

Audio format: AAC

Audio bitrate: 96 kbps, 48kHz sample rate

To prove it, I have placed this video on YouTube. Crank up the volume as the Fuze's speaker was abt 3 feet under my camcorder. You can clearly see how CorePlayer at this time is NOT worth your $$ (I should say they are stating that the new version that will fix these problems will be additional $$ if you buy their product now).

Here is the video on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lf4xteVs8M

I should state I am NOT a new purchaser of CP. Had it since my Wizard. I am just pissed they are not addressing customer concerns nor answering questions when we ask. We just want decent playback.

If it takes a while, fine. Just be honest.

**MODS> I know sticking this probably isnt too cool, but people are getting screwed. Please consider this. Tnx.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
And I've been deleted from the user base on their forums.. Heh!

:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mindfrost82:
Out of curiosity, what apps do you use to convert videos to that format?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
Use Super!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Goatmaster:
Man they must have deleted a lot of stuff in their forums because the threads are all wishmaster replying to non existent posts lol. I am curious why bother with CP if WMP is doing such a good job?

BTW I remember CP being slow to get the video support on the Athena, actually it may never have fully supported the hardware on that device...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
It is sad actually. There were questions posted that were very simple to answer yet CoreCodec refused to do so.

I took screenshots of several of my posts knowing that they would get deleted. I'll post them tomorrow- I'm pretty wiped out from all the holiday stuff today.

All in all, I'm blown away at how little regard they have for their customer.

They have a pretty ignorant business model. I mean seriously- they portray their mobile player as the end all in the industry, yet they dont offer a trial period (oh no! people might figure out they aren't delivering what they promise depending on device) and they arent willing to let people know when they might be competitive with current apps that are... get ready for this...

INCLUDED IN THE WINDOWS MOBILE PACKAGE!!!!!

Wow!

Bad form, CoreCodec..... Bad Form!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mrvanx:
I dont understand this thread tbh, ive been using coreplayer very happily since i got my raphael....a WIDE variety of video formats and they all play nicely....ive gotta ask are you still running a stock os??
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Hamstah:
I've also been running coreplayer since I got my Touch Pro, and for almost all videos I've tried (mostly DivX and XviD), it has performed remarkably well - I got coreplayer because WMP can't play (to my knowledge) videos requiring codecs like XviD and DivX, and most of the videos I watch are in those formats. I also tried DivX's mobile software, and that performed really poorly.

I'm always willing to try something new, so I will try converting some videos for WMP, but as far as I can tell, CP isn't giving me much of an issue at all.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] dr g:
The OP's point is well-taken, especially since Coreplayer doesn't have a trial ... but a little bit of due diligence would keep most people safe. TCPMP is kinda-sorta a trial ... the issue is Coreplayer is not optimized for the Raphael graphics acceleration hardware.

I do hope they manage to do it, then I'd purchase it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] VaThInK:
Coreplayer is only good for XviD and DivX videos. When it comes to H.264 or its variants it sucks really bad. Only capable of playing half of the frames on average ( about 50% drops more or less). This is all based on my testing so far.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tweker:
I am running v1.2.5 build 4506 for arm and the only issue I have is with flac files (no surprise). Even with a 500mhz cpu my phone has moments of complete silence as it tries to unfurl 30+mb songs.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I'm also running CorePlayer just fine. No problems whatsoever, and it outperforms WMP. I haven't tried the exact settings from your first post, but the normal desktop xvids work perfectly without having to transcode to a specific format for my raphael.

Make sure Qtv is enabled in Coreplayer (menu -> tools -> preferences -> select page -> qtv display -> tytn ii driver mode).

Btw, I'm not running stock ROM anymore. Maybe that makes a difference too.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
No, I m still running the stock rom. At some point I'm sure I'll reflash, but I sure as hell am not going to because CP isnt up to the task of playing an mp4.

If you watch that video, you will see the various settings I used in CP and the result.

Maybe it is a Fuze issue (doubt it) but most of my vids are mp4 h264 (well they are now anyway) and CP just cant handle it.

It's not just my Fuze. Touch HD users are supposedly experiencing the same issue as are some Diamond owners.

The trick is that you wont see the complaints on the CoreCodec forums because posts are being deleted and people banned for "CorePlayer bashing".

I think that video speaks for itself.

Like VaThInk said: "Coreplayer is only good for XviD and DivX videos. When it comes to H.264 or its variants it sucks really bad. Only capable of playing half of the frames on average ( about 50% drops more or less). This is all based on my testing so far. "

Thats exactly what you are seeing in the video.

Fine- but if you are going to sell a app to someone with no trial then it better deliver. When it doesn't, then don't get pissed when those people want to know when it might.

Tap dancing around release dates for upgrades and then not being up front whether the upgrade is going to do anything (AFTER YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR IT-AGAIN!) to remedy a problem is simply not cool.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
And I said exactly that on their forum- if it could deliver on the formats I use with an upgrade, I would gladly purchase the upgrade.

Don't get me wrong people- I did NOT buy CP for my Fuze. Had it since my wizard but my point is they are letting people purchase it then when they find out it is truly not doing what they say it will on these newer devices they say you will be able to BUY an upgrade soon.

When? They won't say. Will it be in the 1.30 upgrade? Won't Say.

2.0? Probably but won't say for sure.

The ONLY thing they WILL say for sure is that you will have to PAY all over again- thus the title of the thread: Buyer Beware.

slight update:

http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=961

yeah sucks that it is getting hammered by wmp but they are working on it and were the ones that gave us kaiser users the first bit of hope when it came to the vid driver issues there.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Brendo:
i have played files of the type you mentioned (although the only setting different is i use 1200kbps) and they run fine on my touch pro :)

ive used coreplayer for ages now and never use wmp, so cant comment on which is better

coreplayer has a few bugs (esp tv out) and support for graphics isnt that good (htc fault) so i cant wait for a new release with these issues fixed
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Bimboy:
I had similar issues with H.264 vodcasts and Coreplayer. I thought I would have to reencode them, or subscribe to a different feed, but I happened to select one in WMP on the Fuze, and was very surprised to see it worked there, since it would not play better than 1-3fps on Coreplayer.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] KD8DNS:
I love coreplayer and have no problems whatsoever, it is way better than wmp.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
If you have problems with CorePlayer try different ROM or at least different video drivers. Try to put this to \windows

http://rapidshare.com/files/168326876/d3dm_ati.rar

I am playing full DivX DVD RIPs on my Raphael (ca. 800MB per movie) and it runs flawlessly even during fast actions.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
Hey folks, I'm curious- Would it be fair to say that a lot of us (myself included) originally purchased CorePlayer because of the wealth of different formats it would play?

In other words letting us use one player to play our multimedia so we didnt have to take the time to re-encode the files?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Bimboy:
I agree that for a lot of things it is better. Not for H.264/MP4's tho. I was hoping it would make it so I didn't need any other video playback software. I just think it's a bit of a bummer that I have to think "what was that encoded in?" before I choose to play a video.

Thanks nik3r, but I have those drivers installed already, and it's behaved this way on all ROMs I've flashed on my Fuze.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] KD8DNS:
Yes, very fair to say. I bought mine back when I had my Tilt. Now I have it on my fuze. and im very happy. I realize it will never stack up to my Sharp LCD hi def at home. But im satisfied with my purchase of core.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] NetRipper:
I think there's a mixup ;)

People that are having trouble are having trouble with the MP4/H264 file format. People (including myself) that were saying not to have a problem with coreplayer, are either using DivX or XviD. It should be noted the OP was talking about the problem with H264.

Anyway that thread y2whisper referred to earlier seems to admit that there's a problem in Coreplayer. I.e. Corecodec is admitting the problem and seem to be willing to update it in the future. Reading from the text it seems 'Betaboy' is one of the developers.

As to their policy to remove threads and posts from their forum, I can understand a bit. The problem is probably described somewhere and they just remove all threads that are duplicates of the one thread they want to keep. I'd want to keep my forum a bit clean from duplicates as well - it emphasizes one problematic part of the software to be blown out of proportions.

Regarding their purchase policy, well, it's something you agreed with when you bought the software. You only get updates for free when the major version does not change (1.2 -> 1.3 is free, 1.3 -> 2.0 is not). When you buy the software, there's a 30 day full refund policy, which is like a trial period.

I can see the point of this thread - to warn people that H264 is not properly supported yet. However, I don't see a point bashing Corecodec over it. I bet they're just doing their best. And they also need to make money to keep the software alive. The license to make Qtv natively supported into Coreplayer must cost them money as well. Who knows how much. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Bimboy:
Well said, NetRipper. Very factual.

For me, I was hoping that with a 16gb card, I would not need an ipod to watch my favorite video podcasts. Coreplayer does not handle those remotely well though. WMP does an OK job though. It does play almost everything else really well though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Blitz49:
I have the same problems with H264 only, but other formats run fine. k9tim how did you get mp4 to run on media player? Could media player support avi? How can I get H264 to run smoothly as of now?

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] k9tim:
THANK YOU! It was never about Divx/Xvid. Yes, my CP plays those pretty well also. It was about mp4's!

Oh and about the updates- BetaBoy stated that an update to 1.3 would cost us. IOW, 1.26, 1.27, 1.28 would be part of the 1.2 series. He was saying that 1.3 would have a discounted fee associated with it but people who had purchased 1.25 in "XX" number of days would get it free. Here is a copy n paste quote:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are still working on the details... all current 1.x users will be entitled to an upgrade discount, while user that have made purchases over the past xx days will get the upgrade for free.

XX is still to be determined.

Also from our internal discussions today... we are going to release 1.3 after all. More info to follow.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is the thread:

http://forum.corecodec.com/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=1145&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=60

SO:

Bob buys a Touch HD. Same day buys Coreplayer 1.25.

Bob notices his mp4's look like crap. Bob *****es.

Bob is told 1.3 may fix the problem but there is no firm commitment on that.

Bob is told 1.3 will cost him since he didnt buy within "XX" days.

1.3 comes out, Bob pays AGAIN if he doesnt fall in the unpublished "XX" days and finds out the problem isnt fixed.

Bob waits till 2.0 in like March (maybe) to fully support QTv and Bob has to PAY YET AGAIN!.

Go read the threads people. I'm not making this crap up.

It's all about having ONE media player to play your formats so you dont have to spend hours re-encoding things. Telling people they will have to wait for a new version, pay again, but possibly not have the problem fixed is crazy.

Whats even crazier is saying two versions down the road will fix things BUT you will have to pay a THIRD time!!!

See what I'm sayin?

BTW, that same thread is where BetaBoy avoids answering questions by touting their new advances in playback on PS2's. Yes- that PS2. I grabbed a screenshot just incase posts get deleted again. My posts are reflected in some quotes as user 'Zen'.....

@ Netripper: They aren't removing dupe postings. They are removing posts that are critical of them. Some were mine. I was also banned when my posts were deleted.
