Hello.
I'm about to buy a new smartphone (im running Galaxy Spica right now), and I dont know what to buy..
I have a choice to buy Nexus S or Galaxy S + and I dont know which one is better for me. I am a student of computer science, and certainly I will be able to write software for Android. But I would like to record 720p videos..
Also, I found that on Nexus ICS have many problems right now..
Is there any chance for ICS on Galaxy S+?
Or maybe I should buy something else? My phone should be fast, have big screen (cuz I need to read pdf on this) also games should works fine.
I have about 250 euros.
Thanks for help
Hey guys,
i got myself the samsung galaxy note 10.1 and well basically i want to know what are the best features of this tablet?
I also want to know if rooting is really worth it & finally a lot of the widgets on the store suck lol, is their a place where I can get nice ones? And nice 3d hd live backgrouds?
Also What is the best application or emulator to play PS1 games on my tablet?
Thanks
Alright so I recently sold my iPod Touch 5g in search of a new media player that can also run on Wi-Fi and has a bigger screen. I also was tired of iOS so Android was my next option.
I bought the Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 which looked like a bargain at first but lags like hell and has terrible pixel density. The icons look disgusting...
Could someone recommend me a phone that could be used without a contract, as just a media player? The Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, & Nexus 4 are some of my choices but I'd like more opinions. I want a sleek looking device. Which would you recommend?
A million thanks to anyone who helps me out.
Hey all, on my Nexus 5 & 7 I get lag when watch non HD MKV files on MX Player in Hardware Acceleration mode. But on the Galaxy S4, there i no problem at all.
On the Nexus devices I have to use Software decoder, and I feel this uses more battery than hardware. Why is there massive lag on MX player?

I believe it's related to some drivers and codecs.
On my LG g2, if I use stock rom, I can play with hardware decider but when I switch to cm10.2 I have glitchy experience with hardware decider. I've to switch to switch to software decoders and all works well. Never faced any problem with battery on g2, but this phone socks battery like anything. I've got to be more careful.

I'm getting so spoiled by Note 3 and g2 battery. Battery on nexus 5 isn't is greatest point, but can't return a nexus for its battery.

Idk man, if it can't make me through a good full day use it's not very useful to me you know? Add that to the terrible speaker, and the fact that mine has 3 dead pixels (getting a replacement, so hopefully I will be happy with the new one) but overall idk man.
Its really fast though!

Diceplayer is a great alternative. Seems to support HW mode too. Might be worth a shot?

I tried Dice on my N7 and it had the same problem. I'll try again on the N5.
Make sure you install the latest custom codec. In MX Player go to Settings - Decoder scroll to the very bottom and tap Download Custom Codec. This should take you to ktsamy's thread on this site's Android Software Development forum where you can download V1.7.20 Arm v7-Neon codec. Follow the instructions to set this as the Custom Codec in MX Player. Hopefully this may help you, I was seeing stutter on playback of my recorded TV shows until I set this up on my N5.
