Nothing here yet. Has anyone installed it?
I got it. It includes the April security patch
From what I can tell the phone seems smoother. Placebo effect maby. Battery Seems improved.
Has anyone updated directly from pb5 to pd3? Would like to keep the Hotspot.

I got the update. Still can't edit APN. And also, not sure if I'm alone on this one, but I lost the ability to watch HEVC 10bit videos with the native Video player. It was the only player that actually used the hardware decoder, so the only way to pay those videos without a stutter. now just greets me with an error message.
Anyone else on APD3 having this issue?

On the new update, can someone test this for me? Set Location to GPS Only for a few hours & then check Battery Usage for Android System. Is the GPS constantly on for almost as long as GPS was turned on or was GPS active for just a few seconds or minutes?

I can report that if you edited your APN settings before applying this (and the prior) update, the update doesn't wipe out those changes. WiFi tethering still works for me.
Just switch location to GPS only. I'll report back what I find later.

Nope, can't play it. Clicking on a link on that page tells me a I don't have an app for that kind of file, and copying the file to the phone and then trying to play it gives me an error.
I left the GPS only in for 30 minutes or so. Reported 32 min.

I've been searching for a way to record my gameplay on this tablet. There doesn't seem to be one that actually works properly on this device Anyone figure out or found an app that actually works? I purchased Screencast video recorder, but its frame rate is in the single digits and the color turns out inverted I know this device can handle it. Could be compatibility issues.

Here is a video to show the inverted color(Reds are blue) and slow frame rate. (Per request)
*This was recorded using stock kernel. Normal resolution. Frame rate at 30fps. (Though running benchmark from the app shows 5fps it could handle!) Tried it with franco kernel r8 but all it did was record the last screen that it was on before recording started and did not record gameplay just frozen. Also during recording it did affect my gameplay. It had some lag. I'll adjust the kernel and see if performance mode will fix that.
Update:Changed to Performance using setcpu did nothing to remedy the gameplay lag while recording

Not on the N10. Its extremely laggy and fps is in the single digits for me. When I had the Note 10.1 I had no issues recording. Even the color was correct.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk HD
How does it perform with "normal resolution" selected instead of "high resolution"? Most people don't need the gameplay video in 2560x1600... Also, if the frame rate is better with low resolution (it surely is), could you send me a recorded video (no more than 10 seconds long)?

Now I think the best way is to use your phone...
and there's still another way, if you can share your screen to your pc, then you can record your pc screen, it's much easier to find a screen recorder for pc.

It does work fine on my SGS3. But the problem is that its such a small screen when it comes to gameplay. I'm used to the larger screen. I did try Airdroid because it has the ability to record the tablet screen from the PC but it was not smooth at all. It had worse frame rate.

From the volume of posts on this topic, and from the number of screencasting apps on the play store.....looks to me like a lot of people with N10's are filming their screen via their cameras
Would love if one of the Screencasting devs updated their software so it's compatible with the N10
Same here with my Note 2. The reds and blues get inverted. But framerate is fine.
EDIT: Does anyone know how to invert the colors back to normal using Sony Vegas or even Photoshop? It seems like it is only the reds and blues that get inverted. Link to my short video: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/96857758/red&blue.mp4

https://play.google.com/music nice big button that says Upload Music. Click it.
You can upload upto 20,000 songs in any quality rate. Saved my ass twice from HDD failures, restored directly back to my PC from my Google Music account plus the benefits of being able to stream music to my N4 wherever I am. You can also pin music from the app so that it's preloaded if you need to save on mobile data.
I can say it streams just fine even driving at high speed .

Quick correction, it uses some space as cache but you can quickly clear it whenever. Useful since you may only be listening to a lot of the same music week to week as far as saving data goes.
Ummm even with this not checked??
Maybe 2,or 3 songs max...

You can either store music on your device, or stream it from a service like Google Music. You either use device storage, or you use data/wifi to stream it. There are no other options. This is why people value unlimited data plans so highly.

Hi all!
I got my N7 2013 some days ago and I cant stop looking at the jagged videos it plays when using youtube and HD, even the best quality channels like MKBHD have big artifacts when looked closely.
I was expecting a quality that would blow me away but I found this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The thing is that this issue is youtube related, because vimeo or the downloaded videos looks fantastic. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Some people told me that it is the new youtube apk, is any way of getting an older one without root?
PS: Sorry for the big image I cant post links, and wanted to show you the image in full size.
Thanks!
It has been a problem since the new YouTube app came out and they STILL haven't fixed it. You can try to get the old YouTube apk, or just use a 3rd party app like Viral or BSPlayer and "share" the video to it.
Link to old thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45090332#post45090332
It's an old issue but I think it deserves a bump because it's just ridiculous how long they let this issue stay unfixed. What's the point of having crazy high resolution screens on the Nexus devices if YouTube looks like trash?
Bought a Nexus 7 2013 today and i too have this issue, btw tried to copy the link to Bsplayer...the quality wasn't better

I totally gave up on the official app, as in only using it to share content on to Viral. It's like two more kicks and delivers true 720p. It even loads in that quality faster than the YouTube app, rebuffers less, plays in the background and has a pop-up function.
Too bad Viral doesn't support 1080p.
I dunno whether to laugh or cry at the fact that Google's own video service is incapable of playing full HD video on their flagship full HD tablet. Anyone know if it's the same on the Nexus 10?

Ok then let me correct, there is no 1080p for 90% videos on Viral. (in the one you posted there is, but it's minority)
Youtube: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0t4ni5kvcpu8h5m/ac.jpg
Viral: https://www.dropbox.com/s/oym1z6qltd2op98/Screenshot_2013-12-05-16-15-48.png
Pretty much every single video i searched, with "1080p" in title was available only in 720p @ Viral.
I've had this phone since Sunday. Bought at an EE store in the UK. I'm loving it. However....
1) It has crashed twice while receiving calls...just keeps ringing and phone frozen...not too worried about that...yet.
2) Twice it's booted up with the screen not taking any input whatsoever....again...not worried as a hard reboot sorts that.
The 2 above are just minor inconveniences...doesn't actually stop me from doing anything....I've taken enough calls to know...that crashing when receiving a call is going to be rare enough not to drive me mad.
The real problem I have, is that google Play movies and TV will not settle down and play without stuttering between 5 and 15fps. It's only google play movies and TV doing this. I can play back all content on the device fine with no problems.
It doesn't matter if I stream or download the content on google movies and tv - it will stutter.
Tried re-installing...tried clearing app data + cache...it will not sort itself out.
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Note to mods : My apologies...I should have posted this to Q&A.

Hi! Thanks. Just one bit of info that would be useful to me. Do you have this phone? Is your google movies playing back OK? If you have the phone, but you don't have any content on google play, would you do me a really good favour and download one of the free TV shows? Especially if you happen to be on EE!

It's the same for me when watching Luther.

I've had this phone since Sunday. Bought at an EE store in the UK. I'm loving it. However....
1) It has crashed twice while receiving calls...just keeps ringing and phone frozen...not too worried about that...yet.
2) Twice it's booted up with the screen not taking any input whatsoever....again...not worried as a hard reboot sorts that.
The 2 above are just minor inconveniences...doesn't actually stop me from doing anything....I've taken enough calls to know...that crashing when receiving a call is going to be rare enough not to drive me mad.
The real problem I have, is that google Play movies and TV will not settle down and play without stuttering between 5 and 15fps. It's only google play movies and TV doing this. I can play back all content on the device fine with no problems.
It doesn't matter if I stream or download the content on google movies and tv - it will stutter.
Tried re-installing...tried clearing app data + cache...it will not sort itself out.
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Note to mods : My apologies...I should have posted this to Q&A.

Are you still getting stuttering?
Thanks.

Yes. I've worked out that it works WITHOUT storage encryption. The moment the phone is encrypted, the stuttering comes back.
Google won't fix it, saying that it's a performance issue. Sony have told me that they've booked it in as a bug, but I can't expect any fix anytime soon.
The problem I have is that Hulu crashes on me. All other video apps have no trouble.

Ok I just tried it. I couldn't get to open a Violet account, and I had to skip it. When I purchased a video it was fine(free one), and then tried to play it. It'll hang no matter which resolution I chose. Same thing happens to Hulu. Netflix, Vicki, Drama Fever, Crunchyroll, Google Play Movies, and Funimation works fine for me.

Seems it's a problem on all Z5 Premium phones. I really like Vudu because the streaming is basically blu-ray quality.

Hi, are you on MM yet? Have you tried Hulu & Vudu? Seems the Z5P isn't ooo friendly.
I sold my Z5P. I wasn't happy in the end with their support over movies I had purchased and couldn't even get them on my phone. 3 months later and still couldn't get them. I gave in and walked away.

Seeing as we have 4K screens it would be nice to keep an updated list of where we can experience 4K Content.

If you want to show the 4K resolution to your friends on your Xperia Z5 Premium, you can download the below YouTube Video in 4K and store it in your phone.

I have been using http://www.clipconverter.cc on my PC to download before copying to my phone.
I would heavily recommend OGYouTube.
It is exactly the same YouTube app you are used to (regularly updated), with added functionality for Download, background play, screen-off play, etc. It can even put your video in a small resizable window and play it on the side while you multitask.
P.S. Also has a setting to show the 4K video option

Ah, great, thanks. I could already see it would work when it was installing as a separate application. The previous one was asking if I wanted to install an update to the in-built application.
Btw, where's 4K?

Downloaded Ultraflix and watched some trailers. Amazing.
Here is the link to the app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...+play&pcampaignid=APPU_1_s5jUVundF4K0UYTdltAC
The app is native 4K. 1080p hurts my eyes now haha
Vudu now supports 4K on Z5 Premiums, here's a screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
At least I think it does, because UHD option doesn't show up on my Z1.
