I finally found one issue with my A700 - Acer Iconia A700 and A510

I run temp+CPU as a widget. It will show me the various CPU speeds as I use the tab.
I was streaming a TV show through Netflix. No big deal. I go and get out of the Netflix to switch to something open already and I get massive jerkiness and my CPU was showing like 620 MHz, rather than it throttling back up. Without root, I am stuck with crappy throttling.

Well, At-least Netflix Works XFINITYâ„¢ TV Player Doesn't get sound, but no video

Well, I am tempted to send this back since people are having so many issues. But I have had none of the issues people are talking about.
Dont want them to develop later on either though, if I kept it

sirius xm streaming issues

i use my sirius/xm app for 2-3 hours on a typical day
ever since i got the G2X the stream cuts out about every 5-10 minutes. only way to get it to reconnect is to exit the app and open it back up.
anyone else have a similar issue?
*this is over the network or over wifi, neither one stays connected. (wifi is set to never sleep)
XM has been weird for me, as well. I'll get it looping - I can listen for 5-20mins, and then it will choke & start back at the beginning of that session. I have to pause it & play again to get it back on track.

yep exact same thing happens to me as well. same 5-10min loop will play over and over till i pause/play.
its definitely only an issue on the g2x because i never had any streaming issues with the n1. just the once in a while disconnect.
Same here - my Vibrant would choke occasionally, and even loop a minute or so forcing the pause/play. But the G2x is having worse issues - possibly related to the 4G/WiFi problem, I think.

I had a few issues with Sirius on my N1 with CM7, few random stops after 10-15 mins regardless of wifi or cell
Ive only used the app for about 30mins on my G2x but no issues so far
I listen to Sirius about 6 hours a day using the app. When I first started I had the issues mentioned here - mainly replaying/looping, as well as losing the connection. But they don't seem to be occurring as frequently now. I want to say that it might have had something to do with the network connection and switching between 2g/4g - I now lock it in using 4g (WCDMA Only in phone settings). My app does seem to go thru periods when it will shutdown and then when I click on it, it is restarting. The iphone app was much more stable.
There is chatter about "SiriusXM 2.0," which I hope they support with a new app release.
Now off I go to find where I need to reset all my stations for on Wednesday.... (If these a-holes are going to re-set the stations, they should go to the trouble of syncing them up between services!)
-bZj
I can tell there's a framework issue in G2x because streamfurious doesn't work with G2x (broken pipe then stop) while it works with ALL other Android phones/tablets.
Hopefully the future 2.3 update will fix it.
I put CM7 on my G2x last night. I will see if it makes any difference.
Just out of curiosity, what kind of battery life are you guys getting when you stream Sirius?
If I'm streaming, I'm plugged in. I only stream when I'm driving to/from work.
-bZj
G2x in effect....

i'm actually in the exact same boat. even if i'm streaming while at work i'm plugged in, so i'm not sure as to the battery drain.
i know on my n1 i never used to plug it in, even while driving to/from work. but since the battery is so terrible on the g2x i'm pretty much always plugged in.
It was stuck in a long loop today while listening to Howard Stern,such a long loop in fact i wasnt sure it was even a loop. it played out 3 or 4 times and went back to normal
Why arent there other apps to stream Sirius other than the official app? I'd like to get rid of my damn iPhone but one of the reasons I cant is because it streams Sirius so well, I use the MusicDock app.

Before the SiriusXM App had Howard, I used Orb Live along with the SiriusXM Streamer (http://www.permanence.com/sirius/) on my home pc to stream to my phone. I believe Orb is also available for Android. The Orb Stream can also be accessed via a website/interface, mycast.orb.com, if you don't want to use the app (or pay the $10 ~ which is kind of pricey).
Initially I had issues with SXM app on Android, but now I use it everyday for 6+ hours with minimal issues and running on 2g.

Thanks, ill give it a try

I've installed ORB Media and ORB Live both on my G2X - worked with the stock ROM but FC on the CM7 ones.
Today i was listening to Sirus in the car via the Starmate replay and noticed a few shorter loops, I wonder if the loops we have heard before are from the APP or if its something on the sirius side.
I haven't been able to listen to Sirius today since they changed the channel lineup - even using WiFi. Anyone else experiencing issues?
I am having the same looping issue on my Samsung Galaxy SII, no real fix for the problem?

I used www.youtube.com/user/GoogleDevelopers
I didn't have errors, but I had audio with no video. However, when I changed the quality to 240p, it started working.
I was making stirfy when the keynote was going on so I went to their site and tried it out. It streamed for the most part just fine. The audio and video were off a bit, and it would cut out for a few seconds at a time every now and then; but strangely it would continue exactly where it stopped, so I didn't actually miss anything during the cuts. So overall it worked reliably.
I was able to watch today.. no problems.. lips were slightly out of sync..
Went between not working at all and severely out of sync (1s+). I've actually been watching the sessions on our dev PlayBook, since it actually has decent Flash support. Better use for it than a paperweight, anyway.

What are some of the drawbacks for running ICS?

Hi guys,
I am not certainly an expert in this field but it seems like because we don't have the driver for the graphical card, the phone does not have video camera function when ICS is installed.
My question is I've realized that from watching YouTube and other streaming videos, the quality of video is really bad. Is that have anything with video support?
I'm pretty sure with the stock the quality of the video was just fine.
Thanks in advance for your comments!

The biggest issue currently is the lack of hardware video acceleration which can easily be solved my using MXplayer and having the video decoded through the software instead.

Camcorder force closes. Driver issues.

I'm not sure if it really matters, but what ROM are you using? I've used several ICS ROMs and never really noticed any issues with video quality on Youtube or other sites. It does seem to be slow to load at times, which may be because of the video driver issue. But quality-wise, it looks fine to me.

I must say the picture looks saturated I mean dither gradation of the colors seems not be read correctly? It definitely has nothing to do with how much time it'd take to load.the bids its the picture.that degrades its quality..

These are what I notice to be funky and a bother, the reasons for why they don't work might not be correct but here is what I notice...
No proper video drivers = camera is funky sometimes NO VIDEO unless you use video cam illusion only mediocre quality, some video playback to alot are not proper or functioning fully at the least. Takes longer to load things (I think, ill be surfing xda or Facebook and it loads like DSL used to load in sections, half the screen and other times by quarters, really weird.)
No REAL Hardware Acceleration, it is just a hack with missing libs or Hals or binaries a bunch of little things, this causes a mess of issues if I'm not mistaken which is a possibility (a likely one)
Other things I've noticed are that battery is usually terrible if you use the phone, not super fast at all again proper drivers are the cause of that one. Incoming calls are a pain on most roms. Wifi calling is a no go for a whole lot of people, including me. More things that are just annoyances but also make it not a daily driver for some including me, I've tested them all and always revert... just mainly the annoyances and the lack of wifi calling.

I agree with all that is said above. I had all of these problems and I always had this funky problem in which when ever I was browsing the web it would randomly decide to start flickering the screen black on the page and then not letting me see anything until I started to actively scroll and then the problem would come back. This happened to me over and over until I reverted back to GB. That and the new baseband that is a much needed improvement and is only compatible with GB right now.
I don't know how unique my problem is, but I can't use my phone for development anymore for some reason or some of the advanced Bluetooth features. Pre-ICS, all the G2x drivers installed normally from Windows Update and I could do all the various Bluetooth things, such as Bluetooth file browsing. Post-ICS, my G2x shows up as an unknown device in Bluetooth, so no more Bluetooth file browsing. Also, when I connected my phone for the first time and turned on debugging, Windows couldn't install the drivers to make it work, adb doesn't recognize it, and eclipse won't push to it. Keep in mind, this was on a computer I connected to just fine a few hours ago.
Now, at this point I was a little pissed because I can't use my phone for development, so I try another laptop that my G2x had never connected to. Plug it in, nothing. Install LG drivers, nothing. So I think that ICS somehow messed up my ability to use debugging mode, because when I disable debugging mode I don't have any "Other Devices" in Device Manager.
I've been running arcee's CM9-SK3 since he released it, the hardware acceleration is a nuisance, but my biggest complaint is the maps problem. When I'm using maps or navigating, the map will randomly blank out and maps will require a complete restart. It's quite annoying while navigating, and absolutely infuriating while searching the map for something. I can live with the battery (I have two), I can get over the lack of video (youtube HD works fine), but the maps thing is what drives me the most crazy, especially since I just moved across the country right after installing SK3.

[Q] Movies Pause, Freeze, or Start Over

I cannot play a movie (typically over wifi) without some kinda glitch on this thing. For the most part I have worked out every other major issue on this device except this and I can't seem to figure it out. I have both MX Player and BS Player and they both do this. I have tried every conceivable settings combination you could imagine. Why can't I play one movie from start to finish without 10 -20 random pauses? What is causing the movie to do these random pauses? It doesn't matter if its mkv, mp4, avi they all do it. Anyone else have the same problem?
Do you have force GPU enabled or disabled under developer settings? Try toggling it on or off.

I'm seriously starting to think that maybe you *do* have a defective TF700! I have never seen anyone have so many damn "glitches"!
Have you tried exchanging the device? I'm being serious... If not, you may want to give that a shot. I have watched countless videos via countless apps, over wifi, from SD card and from internal memory and haven't had any issues...

Thanks for all of your feedback. Yes I have volume+ installed. I am rooted on stock ROM and kernel (at the moment). I am watching movies fine now.:laugh: At least for the time being. Both off SD and internal memory. Have to test the wifi streamer next. Here's what I did to correct the problem. Which one did it, I haven't a clue, but I have a gut feeling:
1. Cold-booted Linix (Reboot Bootloader:RCK and do nothing) three times in a row.
2. Ran FMR Memory Cleaner
2. Disabled "1Tap Quick Bar" as a startup [Some add-on for RAM Booster widgets]
3. Disabled "Exchange Services" as a startup
4. Installed "Bluetooth Auto Connect"
My guess is 1 - 3 did it. I think 3 was the main problem. Do most people have 250+ market apps installed? Maybe that's my problem. Too many combinations to keep track of. One day she's running like a cheetah and the next day a slug. It all depends on which apps I enable at the time.
No I don't think I have a defective device. Maybe I'm just working her too hard lately or have too little tolerance for computers that don't run perfectly all the time. I've got both system tuner and ROM toolbox and am constantly making changes, trying this boost, that tweak, this script, etc. I think I'll just find stability and leave it to rest for awhile. Reminds me of a Ford Bronco I had all boosted that would constantly break down so I got in the habbit of always carring tools and spare parts to fix just about any problem that could occur road-side in under 10 minutes. It wasn't uncommon for me to pull over on the freeway in the rain to adjust my timing. I used to and still do enjoy tweaking on things to make them better. Glad to be driving a Honda now. Just looking for that same reliablity in my hardware.

Update: Back for some more wrestling. Both my arms are out-of-the socket but I can still hop. Reminds me of a Monte-Python I saw once with a limbless Knight and a rabbit...anyway. This only fixed being able to play the movies locally. But then I tried streaming, and still got the pauses. Started doing some more poking around. Disabled everthing to do with NOTIFICATIONS (1-Weather, Backlight Switch, RAM Booster, Volume in Notifications and those System Tuner notification icon packs I installed (%CPU, Temp (F), CPU Freq). Now it plays and streams fine.
Man, one god damn little s*&^^$ piece of software can really screw this system up! Why do top tier softwares come with third tier add-ons sometimes? It doesn't make any sense from a marketing perspective to screw up your reliablity like that. Like this issue or that 1TAP Quick Bar for RAM Booster, never did get that to work. Guess I can't have my cake and eat it too. I'll start slowly putting my UI back together, notification wise, and see which one it is, but if this is any clue, when I disabled the ones from System Tuner, System Tuner crashed. I'll bet its those icon notifiers that was doing the interrupts that my video player interprets as PAUSE. I'm really getting sick of spending all my time fixing little bugs with this pad rather than enjoying what it has to offer, but I am learning oodels by doing it. Just didn't want to fast-track it like I've been. Ouch, I feel the next glitch coming already...

Remove Volume+ completely. I had issues watching movies as well. stock and rooted. its one of the reasons i almost returned my device. While watching movies, my device would freeze and reboot on its on. Other times, the movies would play, but no sound would come out. I dont know how i came to the conclusion, but i removed Volume+ and have not had the issue since. Maybe get DSP manager for volume enhancing.

With all of the different "fix my system" apps that you have installed, it's no wonder you are having issues. With apps like System Tuner, unless you are really experienced with Android (and/or some variant of Unix) and how these OS's work, you can run in to some nasty performance and stability problems.
I learned long ago that you usually don't need any of these apps and they usually cause more harm than good, especially if you have more than one installed at the same time. I'd suggest that you start fresh (clean install) and only install apps that you actually use. Forget about all of the apps that try to fix things that aren't broken. I think you'll have a much better experience in the end... Hell, I don't even install SetCPU or apps like that anymore - I've found that my system runs pretty damn good now! Android comes "pre-tuned" - let it do it's thing...
EDIT: I must say, however, that I am running CleanROM, not stock. It runs so much smoother than stock that it's worth the risk of unlocking the device to install it. If you are truly worried about warranty coverage, get a SquareTrade accidental coverage warranty - they are dirt cheap.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk 2
I concur, all these apps; rambooster, system tuner, android tuner, memory manager, setcpu etc are mainly a waste of time on stock and are clearly causing some of your issues. Android itself is wrestling trying to maintain control of the OS and memory by the sounds of it.
The best tweaks come from a stable system and the kernel. As you are rooted but still locked you won't be able to benefit fully from some of the tweaks.
Every now and then I mess around with system tuner and get things a bit unstable. In fact the best options are sometimes to not even install it
Well I have just about given up on playing movies over wifi. Some work with these settings, others work with those settings, and some just don't work at all. I get the same effect streaming from my portable Seagate wireless HDD as I do over my corporate wifi streaming from my desktop so its not the wifi or the wifi on the device (its been totally reliable otherwise); its the audio and video decoder over wifi just does not seem to work well or consistently at all for me. I can play the same movie locally with settings "A" and need different settings "B" to play over wifi if it plays at all, or plays at a quality considered high enough to watch which isn't often.
Settings I am discussing are H/W+ video decoder, H/W video decoder, S/W video decoder, and same (3) but audio decoder. Locally I can usually play everthing H/W+, both video and audio. Sometimes I need H/W but never S/W. Network I can usually play most with H/W, both video and audio. But I had to play a recent movie over wifi with H/W video and S/W audio to get it to work. Every movie needs different settings over wifi. Really a PITA and with 96GB flash on the pad I just have ended up copying what I want to watch locally from the Seagate via wifi (as I have no keyboard dock or USB adapter). After disabling nearly everthing now it doesn't pause or stop entirely any more, it just "glitches", like momentarily stalls with no sound, or choppy sound, or choppy video, then eventually continues playing. These "glithes" can last 5-10s and can happen 5-10 times during a 2 hr movie. I think I'll just revise my user name here to "Mr. Glitch" as some already know me by and call it a day on this topic folks.

I was so bummed from these wifi problems because I really wanted to use this pad as a mobile theater system and bought the $200 Seagate to pair it with as a host streamer but I haven't had any luck yet getting it working and was ready to tuck tail, call it a wasted venture, and hang it up. Haven't tried it over HTTP yet but this is simply fantastic. I have spend hours trying to get both MX and BS Player to stream for me and they don't work. This one rocks on wifi. I don't know how to thank you. If you are anywhere near Fremont, CA I will get you drunk for this one.

Works flawlessly over HTTP as well. Got it playing a movie in a window that I couldn't play before. System Tuner, RAM booster, Volume+, Volume in Notifications, Back Light Switch, Browser2RAM, they are all loaded. All the things that didn't work with other players work with this one. I'm blown away. You pick the restaurant and bar, any ones you want buddy. Its on me.

Ha! Thank you for the generous offer - unfortunately, I couldn't be further away - I'm all the way over near Philadelphia...
Anyway, thank the developer of Dice Player - not me - write up a good review for the app on the Play Store.
It has so many unique features as well, such as audio delay, audio amplification, "windowed" mode, swipe to control brightness/volume, etc.
Glad you got things sorted out.

Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Hostar not working on Vivo S1

H,
A friend is facing a problem with her Vivo S1. She recently updated her phone, which now shows as having Funtouch OS 9.2. The problem is, after the update, whenever she tries to play a video in full screen in ether of the three apps, netflix, prime video or hotstar, it just shows a black screen but the audio can be heard. The apps were working fully before the update. After looking around on the internet, i came across a few possible reasons, one being an issue with the full screen settings of apps, but when she goes to the full screen settings, there are no apps to modify. Another issue could be DRM if some other apps are allowed to draw over then these apps might not work, is that possible, if so, can anyone please give a solution for this particular OS, because i could not find that anywhere.
Did you get a solution please let know I am also getting same issue
