I have Omni. I just takes a long god damn time. Open it, pic your channel, then wait about 4 minutes. VOILA. I know. It sucks.

weird, it still not working for me. I update Omni again today. Running 4.4.2-20140207-1805
I've left the app open for well over 10 minutes but still no audio. other streaming audio apps like TuneIn work fine for me on this tablet, they start outputting audio immediately.

I wish I could post on the Omni main thread so @Schischu knows of the issue but I don't have access since I don't meet the requirements. I hate to roll back to EOS but if i can't listen to the app on this device then I just may have to.

[APP] TV Shows Stream LITE

Hi,
We have been working on this app, is my fourth android app.
The aplication searchs over internet for tv-shows links capables to be played directly on your device, with full screen support using megavideo, frogmovz, karambavidz and other hosting services. The search resoult are shown in a intuitive and easy to use interface.
EDIT: This application is not available anymore.
Samsung galaxy vibrant user here:
Using Nerov3+voodoo
on wifi
While the interface of the app was very easy to navigate. Non of the the videos I tried to play from the few websites I selected would play. I picked monk and the x-files. I also tried multiples of the sources.
It basically opens a webpage and ask you to verify that you are human. Nothing happens for "me" beyond that.
Vibrant user..nerov3..no voodoo Dexter works fine !!
Will this ever support HDMI out for the EVO?
Try megavideo servers first
The best integration is when megavideo is used as stream server, it goes directly to full screen.
I have been watching X Files and Dexter without any problem on my HTC Desire.
Sounds Great I'm in
I purchased the full version. So far so good
I have not had any problems loading videos on the Droid Incredible. However, there seems to be a delay on the sound by about a second or two.
I downloaded the lite version and experienced it both on Prison Break and Lost.
Excellent so far when I use megavideo streams. Awesome that its got its always sunny - thats not even on netflix streaming!.
watching dexter on my nexus one running MircoMod777 Gingerbread V.19
havent tried any others yet but im sure most if not all work, theres alot of sources to choose from so dont start crying if the first one doesnt load up right away, its the lite version, deal with it
Can you add Fringe?
I m a fan.
Beauty! I bought the full version right away. Great app.
same here, great app but would like to suggest maybe an integration with tv show favs app, maybe. I see the bookmarks app which is good, also how often will these be update, are we looking at 30 mins after show aired?

same with me full version on EVO cm7rc0. I will try fresh ROM later.
Hi,
This app has not been tested with custom ROMs. If you experience problems try uninstalling the rom flash player and install flash player from the market before changing your ROM.
so far so good.....most likely will upgrade soon...........great work..........
AWESOME
Bought it right away. And I never buy apps haha

thanks for the great app
works flawlessly with cynagen only problem is that still no 4g only in alpha stage when done, it will be amazing, try to see if it will work on my nook.
Running Rod's latest MIUIMOD rom on my N1(running on base 12.31). I didn't even screw with the lite app, I went to the jugular and bought the app.
Watch a few mins of a show and works great! Thanks for the app!
Works fine on my Droid X. It's running Rubix 1.9.5.

[Q] Google Talk mic doesn't work

I downloaded solid ICS theme via tweaktools and now I see that I have google talk, at least I think it came with the theme because I hadn't seen it before that . Anyways, the video works fine but the user on the other end can't hear me. The mic on my charge appears not to pick up sound when using google talk. I tried calling the same user via my desktop and they were able to hear me on their end. I have toggled the mic off and on and it makes no difference. Any ideas?
That function has never worked on the charge...
Sorry bro...

That's too bad. I was thinking I could yell at my kids when I was at work in a more personal way than just over the phone. You know the whole, look me in the eyes when I'm talking to you thing.
You still can..
Your kids will just think there getting really good at tuning you out..
Lol
SENT FROM THE DOG POUND
They've already mastered that. It's amazing how quick it happens.
As a workaround, Google+ Hangouts apparently work, though I haven't personally tried them.
Skype and ooVoo work as well.
Still Charged Up
How to make mic work now?
How to make mic work now Sir?
thanks
I don't like Skype or other app

- Device / OS: Samsung Droid Charge/2.3.6
- Version of G+: Build Version: 3.1.1.32879387
- Are you using a custom ROM on your device?: No, completely stock and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling G+ app.
- Have you tried hangouts with and without headphones plugged in?: Yes, and also with Bluetooth device connected. (Jawbone Era, Jawbone Icon, Jawbone Icon HD, plantroinics, and even a cheap Jabra) Yes, I own that many Bluetooth devices. LOL
- Does this happen for all hangouts? Yes
- Can you remember any other information relative to when the issue began, such as an OTA or after a specific G+ update?: No, has never worked with any version I have tried since I started using it, but am not sure what version that was, but since i started using it probably has went through 5 updates for G+. Currently on the latest version stated above. As far as OTA updates it didn't work before the last one either on SCH-I510.FP1 now on FP5. Also did not work when I had it root stock with no custom ROM.
- If you try to video chat in the Android Talk app, do you have the same issue?: In Talk there is no option to start a video chat and it does not show the Video icon on contacts.
This worked for me on a droid charge don't know if it will help you or not, but read below.
Holly crap I got it to work. I have used this version before and it did not work, but that was when i was on FP1. I am on FP5 now using GooglePlus_2.3.1.242969.apk and it worked. Now i just have to deal with seeing it asking me to update all the time, but i can block it or just deal with it. At least it works! 2.1.1 version did not have the video icon to even start the hangout so i uninstalled it and downloaded GooglePlus_2.3.1.242969.apk and it worked. Just click messenger type them a message and this in top right corner you will see a video icon. Once you click it it will ask if you want to start a hangout. Hope this helps some people to get it working till the newer versions get fixed.

Yeah g+ hangouts always worked on this phone. Gtalk video chat is different but I think google is phasing that out in favor of hangouts.

Sound enhancer /equalizer not working.

Can't hear any difference in sound when enabling clearaudio+, dynamic normalizer or when using equalizer. Noise cancellation is working, and overall the sound is good, but would like for the above mentioned to work.
Currently running stock. 28 firmware, rooted and recovery. Been trying a few other roms, but same problem. Tried disabling all xposed modules, but no change.
Mainly streaming with wimp (tidal)
Anyone with a clue to this?

I'm a little late here, but found your post while searching for the same answer with the same issue. In a nutshell, Sony has decided to blame the app developers instead of themselves. In Kit Kat, it was more of a "global" equalizer where if you changed any sound settings, it happened across the device in any app. Now, app developers have to choose whether or not to enable the equalizer. In my eyes, this was a horrible move. I use Tidal (wimp) as well, and it sucks to not be able to use any of the benefits of the Sony sound. If you try Spotify, however, they have decided to play ball so when you enter the "equalizer" it simply redirects you to all of Sony's audio tweaks. This is fantastic!
Now, I'm considering switching to Spotify even though I love Tidal. I wish this issue was fixed.
For what it's worth, the equalizer on my S6 works no matter what streaming program I'm using. Why can't you do the same thing Sony?!?!
Despite the bad news, hope this clarifies for you.

Jesus christ man, the timing of your reply freaked me out ? I've just installed prerooted 5.1.1, and still having the same problem. Just decided to do a complete wipe, thinking my upgrading might have done something (never wiped data). So, sitting here backing up apps, littarally minutes away from wiping system and your reply ticks in on my Smartwatch 3 ?
As you told, I checked using Spotify, - and yes, everything works! Damnn you sony!! I'm quite up to date, but this information I've never heard of before! Why do they suddenly shift things like this, damnn, I like tuning my sound when listening to music...
Thank you so very much for your reply, and enlightenment on the issue! Have a great weekend!

Cheers Dude. I think this issue affects about 1% of Z3/Z3+ users (I have both) and it is not on Sony's radar to fix. It's greatly upsetting to me, though.
I'm not sure if I can link to an external page, but here is the 9-page long post on the Sony forums about it:
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperi...blem-after-lollipop-update/td-p/955035/page/9
I guess we could use a 3rd party app for an EQ and whatnot, but I find Sony's ClearBass or whatever it's called to be very valuable on some tracks.
A good weekend to you too,

6.0 Marshmallow: Missing EQ and sound settings are hidden in Play Music

The audio effect settings are now hidden in the Play Music app. I disable the app, since use Amazon for downloads (no device restrictions) and Poweramp for music. None the less, you can still access the audio effect settings, even if Play Music is disabled.
It is the same audio effect settings and appears to still be global. If it were linked to the Play Music app, I should not be able to mess with settings when the Play Music app is disabled, but I can. I created a shortcut to the Audio Effects with QuickShortcut (handy app!).
Audio Effects are accessible with the QuickShortcut app, so no need for the Play Music app.
That's just equalizer it was always there , on 5.0 sound effects was gone and put back. All you do is disable default EQ app.

The equalizers came back after the new play music update.
The Audio Effects were located in the sound page of settings (at the top). They are gone now, but can still be accessed as noted above and without Play Music active (I don't use it).
Testing Youtube and other apps. it sounds like the settings are global (for what I checked), as they were prior to the super great amazing fantastic MM update. All of those adjectives are sarcastic, since I see no improvements but do notice the EQ setting missing from where they were and connecting to a PC went from simple fast connection, to a sporadic pain sometimes.
No, it isn't global anymore.. please test further.
Also the left and right channel doesn't switch anymore when rotating in landscape.. check for right/left channel tests in Youtube.

Maybe if they'd done it correctly from the start -- meaning with no gap in playback, or at the very least a crossfade between channels -- no one would have complained and it could've stayed.
Marshmallow seems to have broken eq. I cannot get audio effects or market equalizer to do anything more than placebo eq. Even some apps with built-in eq have their eq break. . Bluetooth, any way. Yet, to test over eat buds.
---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------
You can also see at a glance the eq of audio effects is pathetic, if it happened to work. . In real world, there is a huge need for huge adjustments in ear buds, speakers, environments. . The variation of sound setup is huge. .
Not to mention BBE or other clarification effects. Which is essential, on top of eq.
Workaround
Now that we know that this doesn't work, (and probably isn't going to be a priority to fix in the next software update, given Lenovo's haphazard nature of releasing broken patches) what's the best workaround? Can Viper4Android be used with the stock, rooted Rom? Or can this blunder only be fixed with a custom Rom?

It's interesting that you mention that because I had literally just discovered A.R.I.S.E. and installed it not even two hours before you posted . Thankfully, I can report that it does appear to be working brilliantly on the stock ROM when using the "Leviticus 1.3" version. :fingers-crossed:
I'll report back if I discover any issues, but so far, it looks good!

Cool! I've been using Arise since they started. Fantastic group of developers. Super nice and helpful. There are tons of options, but it can be simple as well. I'd recommend the newer Deuteronomy builds, but they're all really good. Any questions, just ask in the arise thread. Fyi there are a few incompatible versions. It'll show itself trying to take video and it'll stop with an error message that says that something else is using the mic.

Obviously with Viper processing, battery drain will be a bit more. Otherwise just enjoy the music.

Will do . I assume the additional processing required would be comparable to what I experience right now with the Note2 and equalizer found inside of S-Tweaks. Hopefully not when it's sleeping and not playing any sound though.
solved.
Go to apps in settings, scroll to default equalizer ( in my case sound alive). Disable that and then go to music app (eg spotify) and then go to the equalizer settings and it will come up with your own equalizer app (eg V4A)

AICP Nexus Player Nightly Builds

I am starting this thread for open discussion of the nightly builds for Fugu(Nexus Player) by the AICP Team. I am in no way affiliated with AICP, but I have used their ROMs on several devices and they offer a huge feature set. Their builds for the Nexus Player are based on Android TV as far as I can tell. My experience testing has not been terribly smooth but i see a lot of potential. I've reached out to the team in hopes of getting more information about a maintainer and who to provide logs to. I have only been successful in booting the ROM using dhackers PureNexus leanback gapps package. Many of AICP's benefits and features are not related to the AndroidTV Launcher interface, so try it out, report back your results.
If anybody knows of a NON leanback gapps package (android x86_64) for MM 6.0.1, please share its location as I think a non leanback package will resolve all of the hiccups I've encountered while testing the nightlies.
As of 3/10 build, I get freezes of the launcher, sometimes the AndroidTV settings will not populate images when navigating(back out and reselect a few times and it fixes), backdrop.apk FC's and will not run(can replace with another daydream app), and mic search does not work.
Anything else not working? Lets share with each other.
Link to nightlies:
http://dwnld.aicp-rom.com/?device=fugu
Hopefully we can show AICP that there is enough interest for this and they will join us in discussion or perhaps open a thread in Nexus Player Android Development.

My apologies, I was on mobile and did not see your banner and realize
My first question: who is maintaining builds for the Fugu? I have tested the last 3 nightlies and it doesn't appear that anything is ever mentioned in the changelog that includes Fugu.
Second, is it possible to build a version of AICP based on AOSP rather than AndroidTV? while the android tv interface is nice, you can use the Android TV launcher installed on top of a regular base build of android. but when you build from source AndroidTV base, I think the rom is very unstable. I think an aosp tablet version would do the community a great favor.
Third.... can you direct me towards a suggested gapps package to flash with the Fugu nightlies? the only one I can find that advertises it is leanback for the fugu is a package by dhacker. I am hoping someone knows of a gapps-non.leanback-6.0.1 compatible with x86_64 hardware.
So
This just happened:

So far I am experiencing the same behavior while using both leanback and opengapps packages. This was similar to my previous flashes prior to the switch to tablet ui....
I get immediate and constant FC's from playstore and play services. If left alone long enough, I suspect that with internet connectivity... It updates in the background and FC's stop after 15-30 minutes.
I have not seen a status bar and or navbar.... So a little confused about the tablet ui?
When attempting to flash with opengapps.... Would not get through initial setup... Stuck at checking for updates. I am going to flash again with no gapps in hopes of seeing status/nav bars
Same here with open Gapps,going to try leanback next.
Leanback gapps will flash and boot fine. Initial setup requires manual.
The AndroidTV settings interface remains buggy. Getting stuck on home screen of leanback launcher or while in settings. In settings the screen goes just to background and doesn't load the selected settings. Can hear ui sounds when navigating, but have to back out and reenter multiple times before anything loads
Tablet ui does not appear to be activated or present
I'm about to throw my Nexus Player in the trash and buy the new Chromecast lol. Even on the stock ROM my cast is hit or miss,still a pretty good gaming device. Has anyone on this thread tried VLC player on the Nexus Player,thinking about putting my movies on a flashdrive and just playing the file on my NP?
VLC or MX player work great. You could just leave your media where it is on your network, and set up a Plex server. And I haven't tried to cast something on AICP yet, ROM wasn't stable enough that I got that far in testing.
The ROM is not ready for prime time.
But on stock, have never had an issue trying to cast and it not work

Having to send your local media to a cloud server and then back to your nexus player isn't as efficient or reliable as keeping the stream within your local network. Video stream has to go through multiple servers before it reaches your "play-to" device.
You can even set up a samba share on your PC and enable that directory in Kodi. Is an option under settings/services/samba in Kodi.
I use Kodi everyday on my Nexus Player, so it is easier for me to set up that way where it can pull the directory from my main PC in the house. However, Plex server essentially does the same thing, just its own interface.
I've never used the VideoStream extension more than a few minutes to test so I can't give ya any input in it not working well for ya.
All that said, none of this is related to the AICP rom. If you are trying to do all of this from AICP ROM you are bound to run into issues because the ROM is not ready for primetime use
