You could try downloading the apk from somewhere and installing it to see if it'll work, if not then you could post the apk and maybe someone will stroll along and mod it. Personally I'd like to see it cause it looks pretty sweet.

I looked into this a couple of months ago, and a simple APK copy does not work. You will need to port some Archos framework files too.
But that was a version directly coming from the Archos A101XS firmware, because I can't find the Play Store version anywhere. The Play Store version maybe works out of the box, without framework porting, but I'm not sure...

Ok there are several threads about bootscreens...but i wanna try something.....not sure if i have watched to many movies or something but i want to create a bootscreen that is epic, and only for the desire hd and inspire 4g (since they are the same phone)....what i was thinking is taking several video clips and pushing them together and make our own unique and completely custom bootanimation.....but i do not have the skills to do it or the imagination, but i do have the idea to base it on....i have tried to make one myself with video converters converting from .mp4 to .png and no luck....i would like to show people what a amazing phone we have.....any ideas......BTW the song i was thinking about going with is the song from THOR....its posted if you wanna listen to it and get some inspiration, cause we can't let the thunderbolt have the best bootanimation...so throw some ideas out into this thread...and hopefully a dev will see this and help us out????
Thanks guys
BTW...if a dev can tell me how to do it or someone teach me i would love to learn...."you never learn until you ask.....or watch"

never even crossed my mind to do that.....hummmmm.....no sleep tonight i guess lol.....thanks
a much easier way is using mpeg streamclip it lets you export as an image sequence and its default is png on mac for me it is but it works on pc aswell i just did that no im trying to adb the boot animation just having a few setbacks getting phone ready
btw i have a bootanimation with thor audio and abit of the start of the video for the trailer from youtube so now just trying to get it to work
just tried a reboot and black screen oh well try again i suppose
have custom sound but not sure about whether the images have to be a certain size or anything yet
Thank! very nice

Why not keep it there? {Rom} {GalnetMIUI 1.11.7} {ICS 4.0.1} {11-7-11}
Yes, just saw it.
This line will keep me away from it,
The bad news is that the MIUI ROM comes with heavy UI customization and it won’t let you enjoy the ICS UI novelties, but that’s not necessarily a bad news.

Well, MIUI is good, using ICS as base in MIUI is great but proper ICS on Galaxy S2 will be a whole new experience. Waiting for someone to port it to SGS2.

I just flashed this rom and I'm loving it. I've been using it for 2 hours and I love the MIUI features. It's like Cyanogenmod, but less nerdy and seems to offer better/more functionality.
What I love most is that the Flashlight will start from simply holding the 'Home' button at your lock screen.
Makes it super smooth to enable/disable flashlight, as it disables when you let go the home button.
If you don't like the MIUI launcher, use Go Launcher or some other instead.
I couldnt get used to the MIUI because it places all your apps on your homescreens. I'm sure you could get used to this, but I don't feel like it.
DEFINATELY TRY IT THOUGH! It's butter-smooth.
Just remember to make a Back-up of your current ROM using CWM
Usual stuff that have bugs/dont work:
1080p recording
Video playback (avi, mpg, mkv, etc)
This rom with ics theme and ics launcher will be sweet
downloading now =)
i am kinda addicted to cyanogen cause of the settings menu, but i think ill survive
Sadly i cannot change my Beautiful widgets skin

I tried to record 1080.
I hit the record button, it was recording - then when I stopped recording - the camera application Force Closed.
And nah, I can't play my *.mpg file
EDIT: Playing mpg and avi worked if using the native Video Player coming with Galnet Miui (Galnet Video PLayer)

Correct me if I'm wrong.
But MIUI is based on Cyanogenmod correct?
If so, some files don't work. From my testing, x264 encoded files don't work, as do some files downloaded from Youtube.
For those that have installed, can you try using Tubemate to download the 1080p version of the Battlefield 3 launch trailer and see if it works? Thanks.
Giving it a go myself tomorrow morning. Gonna sleep now.
Preformance test gave me score of 2900, and this should be with 2 duel core? Loled they just make this up to attract people's attention. Its sure not ICS based rom.

So can someone pleas clarify to points I'm still in doubt after search:
1) Does this ROM works on our "non-AT&T" GS2?? Can I flash it normally like any other ROM here?
2) Does FM Radio works?

I flashed it on my non-AT&T by a mistake, it did work, however the device became really hot after 5 mins of UI browsing, so I wouldn't recommend it.
what the f*ck is this ICS build? -_-; No source code out yet... wtf?

im using it and it doesnt get hot
I was reading this article on gottabemobile.com About XDA porting the Netflix HD app to the Galaxy Nexus..and I thought, umm why don't I try that on my Note....Installed the APK from their link...OMG BEAUTIFUL. I started up the New Star Trek Movie, awesome, the old Star Trek, awesome again...the interface is a bit small as its made for tablets I guess, but just pull your stylus out and there is no problem here!
On one small note. I used Chrome to Phone to send myself the APK link. After I got the APK link I also got bombarded with spam links via Chrome to Phone on my notification bar. I had to uninstall Chrome to Phone after 12 notifications about "Hot Girls" I'm guessing this is almost like uncontrolled. pop ups on the server that was serving the APK file. Hopefully I can re-install it with-out the spam, as I use Chrome to Phone a lot!
Edit:
Just connected it to my LCD...it does not look like 1080p when compared to running a youtube 1080p video
Well darn...
I actually can't stand the interface. Without the stylus it's very hard to navigate. Very hard. I wish I could switch it back but still keep the high res video.
The normal netflix app on the Note was also very small as I remember from the handful of times I used it before I installed this APK. Though the actually interface does seam just a tad different.
OP are you sure about that?
I was under the impression that Netflix HD only will stream 720p content to OMAP equipped phones at the moment.
I tried the APK on my Note and movies look exactly the same as the regular Netflix App, still looking standard definition to me.
I have no way to confirm that it is actually playing HD. They look great to me. Though I must admit, I only used it a handful of times previously. The APK works and it's functional. I'll try and use the HDMI Out Cable and see if there is any improvident....
Edit:

don't discount this app just yet. It definitely plays video better than the app i installed it over. I watch a lot of space docs on netflix, and they have looked terrible because of the black "blockiness" problem with the note. This version of netflix looks amazing on the note compared to the one i had downloaded from the market. this fixes one of my only disappointments with my phone!
and it also gives me hope that the video issues can be fixed by software alone!

Can you tell me which APK you are using? I am sure we are using the same one and the picture is not any different to me than the stock. This is definitely not 720P. am I the only one who feels this way? Also I keep seeing people refer to HD content on Netflix. How can we tell which it is? Thanks.

Heyo guys.
I need to screencast some interface interactions for work, and am contemplating between the nexus 10 and note 10.1. I know that screen casting is good to go on the note 10.1 (it even does it natively on later firmwares), but the power, design and screen of the nexus 10 seems like a better investment (after i finish my project it's gonna be my personal tablet).
The problem is, I can't really find information about if any of the hard-to-find screencast apps on the playstore would work on the nexus 10. There was a thread waaaaay back talking about this but since then the app has been updated a couple of times.
Can someone please just do me a real big favor and test it out for me? the demo 20second app is free on the playstore. link below:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ms.screencastfree.
If the link doesnt work, go to the play store and download screencast video recorder demo.
there is also:

Screencast isn't working very well. It creates videos, but the videos appear to freeze and show the same frame. The second app you linked is incompatible. PM me if you want me to test another app.
Bump
I too am looking for a good screencasting application for my N10.
I have tested out the Screencast Video Recorder Demo by Media Solutions, and it is literally hot garbage. Doesn't really record well when i switch apps. Sometimes it only records the app itself, not what app im actually using.
I need to record my screen for work, so im hoping someone has had luck finding an good screencasting app.
Any suggestions?
Yesterday by accident I found a thread on kodi forums with new release from some guy and I checked it first on my phone to see if prime is working and it indeed does work.
But there are some issues some videos might not play so hopefully the guy who did it updates it or fixes it but I just spent last 30 min on my fire tv testing what works and what does not
Here is what you do in order to get it to work on your Fire TV:
1) Download this zip (repo) and put it somewhere on your fire TV:
Link: https://code.google.com/p/addonscri...=repository.addonscriptorde-beta.zip&can=2&q=
2) Go to add-ons on your kodi/xbmc and install the repo
3) go to settings addons - get addons and download the Amazon Prime Instant Video from "Video-Addons" inside AddonSCriptorde Beta Repo
4) launch the prime addon select it as USA, set your settings like quality etc... then it should ask you to LOG-IN after you select US.
5) You should be able to browse tv shows/movies etc..
6) upon selecting play for certain movie/tv-show episode it should ask you to switch to Flash Player (no idea how it works on Fire TV) or any other android device without flash.
On my phone I don't have flash but on my fire tv I do and they both work.
Note: without prime instant access you can view things like Pilot episodes to test it out.
Now we need someone who can try and see why some videos will play and why some won't
Someone who is smart dig into these logs when some videos don't play and tell us what to do about it
What is the advantage here? Prime is standard app on the FireTV. Just curious.
Curious as to why someone would want to use an xbmc add-on for Amazon Instant Video when AIV is one of the core features of the Fire TV? I use built-in AIV all the time and it works great. Why use some hack add-on that will never be nearly as reliable as the official app? Do you not like the built-in AIV? I'm genuinely curious. Could be missing out on something here...

In my case I am not a biggest fan of the KFTV Launcher I actually like the way it is made on Kodi with that plugin.
It's just me maybe there are some other people who prefer it that way
It's good to have options. Enjoy!

You can add Videos from the addon to your library just like they are local stored. So you can extend your local movies with amazon instant links.
You don't have to switch between your library and amazon Instant.
Adding ALL amazon Videos to library is not implented yet, i'm working on it

It is set to [email protected] I thought about the HD because everything it plays shows SD after played.
And looking at my Watchlist the HDs are not playing whereas the SDs are. Was just my first impression.
Are you aware of another addon for Amazon Prime Video?

There are other but require to use real version of chrome not mobile.
It somehow uses chrome then passes video to kodi/xbmc addon.
I would give this dev some time he will for sure fix it. This is already one of the best I have seen.
This plugin broke the genesis plugin for me. .. would be great to have this working. specially when the AFTV skin for Kodi is released.

I don't see anyway this could break another plugin which is weird. And yea I tried googling for the aftv skin for kodi but all they do is show bunch of youtube videos.. I would gladly even pay few bucks for this.
With root this could be huge adding android apps etc.. making kodi act like a launcher.
This would be great for those with rooted devices who may one day be able to upgrade to CM12 / Android TV ROM. I am fairly certain that this upgrade will eliminate access to the current Fire TV Launcher and Amazon content. It would be nice to be able to access Amazon Prime if and when CM12 is possible from other sources.
Anyway to get this to pass 5.1 sound information to my receiver?
Or can that data not be captured from the Flash version of Prime.
This is very worth while if it works. Lots of people like to boot right into Kodi. Plus I hate just about everything about KFTV launcher. I think it's too tedious to navigate. The voice search was a great idea and the tech is perfect at picking up your voice but it often yields a bunch of results that you need to pay extra for. I think kodi has the best interface.
Hi I am from India and I have a Indian prime video account. Will this add-on work for that??
