anyone help ? why i play video on moboplayer, it lags?

also i heard that samsung can play any video format, so why it still say the video cannot be played when i throw in my video and try to play it?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] cadav3r17:
what the video format you trying to play? sorry for ma bad english :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] lonkay:
use SDHC class 4 or 6. dont use USB HUB.

but for me. i used to use "WifiFileExplorer" to transfer file from PC to ACE using wifi connection. just a bit faster.

Try to use SeamanPlayer.. download it from market. :D

You can try Swapper Configuration Available on Market (root Needed)

That would be awesome!!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ingbrzy:
Is he working on it or just asking who else wants CyanogenMod for ACE..?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] downloadonlyaccount:
I guess he wants to know how much the community is interested. Let's show him that we definitly want it :) .

What is the format of the video your are palying? so far i have tested using Moboplayer, the video from the camera, AVI files and FLV files. I have tried MKV files @720p it is extremely slow, the hardware cannot handle such huge data.

Good:

AVI

FLV

BAD:

MKV

I hope everyone append this list so that we can compile the best formats the phone can play.

Gingerbread is up and running again....flashed the latest KPE firmware and it is running beautifully.

Just wish that samsung had incorporated the Lock-Screen and end-of-list animations. Also kept the stock Gingerbread keyboard intact. Apart from that loving it..........till now...:p
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] downloadonlyaccount:
What do you mean exactly with "end-of-list" animation?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ingbrzy:
Battery

Has anybody purchased 1500mAh or 1800mAh battery for Galaxy Ace from eBay or Amazon...? are they better than stock 1350mAh battery..? I have 1500mAh from eBay but seams to be less capacity as stock battery... anybody else has same problem..?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] IvanBoring:
He probably means that if you scroll up/down to top/bottom in a (settings) list, there is some kind of dim color appearing when you reach the end of the list. Not so easy to explain if you haven't seen it ;)

Does this mean that last hope for developing Cyanogenmod for Samsung Galaxy Ace died?

Please give me an advice: should I buy this phone? I hoped I could play around with custom roms, various mods and settings etc...

Did all developers abandon this phone? AFAIK the answer is yes..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] harrythescorpion:
Yes, i have S5830DDKC1 flashed into my phone and there are no problems at all.

i find this ROM stable. i also have darktremor's a2sd installed and its working good as well. so in all.. no issues in flashing it as such.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SapphireNL:
My brother bought is yesterday, it's an really nice phone with a lot of potential.

Therefore i replied on his tweet, because there is really not much modding/tweaking/hacks to be found for this phone :(

While i'm still at this, do any of you know how to remove some of those dumb stock apps samsung installed on the ACE?

Since there is on average only 40mb ram free on the ACE i think it's useful to remove some of those stock apps. At least on my Galaxy S it made a difference

edit: just remembered last night i found a site that stated that you can use SGS tools to do the above. Anyone experience with SGS tools on an ACE ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] manju991:
hey man,

you can try using the new feature on titanium backup. Its called force remove app, under the tap-and-hold menu for an app. Just tap and hold on the app u wanna ripoff in the titanium backup app's backup/restore tab and select 'force remove app'.

note: you will need root acess to install titanium backup, and u MUST install the latest version of titanium backup.

hope this helps...

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Wishmaster89:
Good to know that it wasn't unit related malfunction, and that your problem disappeared :)

I'll remember to format my card through windows explorer before putting it in my Ace.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mastrone:
I did and I do confirm. Lag is still there in lockscreen although the overall performance improved a good deal.

There must be a reason if Samsung made it official on Kies as well :)

PS I didn't flash thru KIES but the drop is the same: KPE
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Wishmaster89:
Nothing for me on Kies :(
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vertcam9:
S5830XXKPE Now Official?

Me too, i have checked via Kies that KPE is the current firmware (previously lower KPx versions not supported by Kies), so i guess this is the Official Gingerbread release for the SGA. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] digkong:
dude theres no official release of ginger bread..its the leaked version...and u dont find that update on KIES
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vertcam9:
Now that KPE is recognized by Kies as Current firmware, this makes it official?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vertcam9:
I' m running the leaked version KPE in my SGA, when connected to Kies today, it says that it is the Current Firmware, which makes this already official, i guess.

Anyone with lower Gingerbread or Froyo version verify this? If KPE is the official release you should see it as the Current Firmware when you connecto Kies.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Hatshipuh:
dude several people already updated their phones to official gingerbread via Kies, which is so far the same KPE as the leaked one.

So I guess still with lockscreen lag :/

TUTORIAL

Who wants to change battery icon and status bar layout, there is a great solution...

Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/ ....

My tutorial is just for GINGERBREAD 2.3.3, so KP8, KP9, KPB and KPE....

NO ROOT OR DEODEX NEEDED....

EDIT:

Thanks to user xdajohn we know, that tutorial works for FROYO too... maybe rename of UOT.zip file to update.zip will be needed....

1) After you check what you want (don't forget press "Generate Preview") on the tab "FILE UPLOAD" you have to upload "framework-res.apk" and "SystemUI.apk" which you can download here: http://goo.gl/l3NNW

2) On the tab "SUMMARY" press "SUBMIT WORK TO KITCHEN"

PS: "Boot animation" is not compatible with HVGA resolution..! Also Emoticons and Glowing...Maybe later...

3) After that you will get name for .zip file with your customization on the page http://uot.dakra.lt/pickup/

Generating .zip file can take of 5min to 30min

example of .zip file name: "UOT-05-13-04-27-1"

3) after you get .zip file you have to replace in this zip file "update-binary" (use only Winrar ..!) file location is "META-INF\com\google\android\update-binary" you have to download new file here and replace by this file: http://goo.gl/ptMaz

4) don't rename .zip file and copy it directly to the SD card (not at any folder)..

5) turn off phone and restart at RECOVERY MODE - middle button OK + turn ON - hold both buttons until you will see SAMSUNG on the display...

recovery mode:

6) go to "apply sdcard: update.zip" and find your .zip file on the SD card

(for navigation use volume buttons and OK button)

7) after update successes "reboot system now" and thats it...! :-)
