ok here we go. this is my first op thread so forgive the typo/grammar because at the moment í am in a rush
This thread is dedicated to how certain apps/games run on zfreak/lordclockan ics betas. i´m taking zero credit for any of the work on these betas as i had zero to do with them but as the dev thread is inundated with non dev nonsense i though that this thread could clear up a lot of the common questions that newbies may ask with regards to app compatibility.
i´ll be updating the first post as often as i can (at least once every 1/2 days depending on feedback) so its up to you rom addicts to relay feedback to give the devs a bit of room to do their work.
ok lets begin

Is anyone else not able to view video content using the new version? My fiance is having the same issue as me. SparksCo's Stable v1.1 is the ROM I'm on.

Some vidoes are not available on mobile for Youtube...other then that no I haven't had that issue and watch quite a few videos on Youtube, almost daily AAMOF.
This happened to me on an ICS rom; Youtube updated and videos would "load" forever, never playing.
Eventually, I uninstalled Youtube via the Market, then re-installed and re-updated. Now it works fine.
If it's a youtube update issue just report it from the market either through the market comments or if there's a developer contact info. Normally I just report it with market comments.
I hope no one associated this issue with the ROM I'm running. The YouTube app is running perfectly now. Also, in a previous thread I mentioned a problem that I was having with my FN key acting weird; I fixed that as well.

Google Voice search won't launch android music player. If I use the right command "listen to", it offers music player as a choice but then doesn't pass the query to the player-- I select android music player and it starts playing a random song.
Also, when using a bluetooth earpiece, pushing the call button brings up Google Voice Dialer (and not google search). It doesn't respond to anything I say at that point. How do I get the native Google Voice assistant to come up instead?
I'm running MDOB 1.8.
I just moved from Iphone so it would be great to get these quite basic features to work on my S4...

Why don't you use S-Voice--just asking--it does all I need extremely well
I'm trying to get rid of the bloatware. The S4 is unacceptably slow until you strip the junk out. And I thought Google Voice Assist was much better than Siri-- but it seems to be broken on many phones right now.

Interesting, mine is extremely smooth and fast even before I rooted. I still have not removed any apps. It was a long process to decide to root and flash twrp as things were going very well.
Did you set animations to .5 and check disable hw overlays in development section of settings/more?
As far as S-Voice it is far better than any other voice to text I ever used. Esp when speaking addresses in Maps--
Hope you get it sorted
Hi everyone,
Has anyone of you succeeded to get Skype properly working on Nougat, with the stock ROM?
So far I managed to install it, either via the AptoideTV application (itself downloaded via the browser in EZ file explorer) or by downloading the APK file. The version from Aptoide TV is functional but doesn't show any video call button, only voice call, in both directions (in and out calls).
It can however access a webcam to take a new picture (I've installed Open Camera for that purpose).
I'll keep you updated if I have any update on that purpose.
Go to settings > app , look for Skype app, click on it and post the whole package name.
I don't have stock Nougat but full Android and Skype work well, I also use the following app to route calls and video calls audio output to HDMI port. Is a must have:

Version 6.15.0.1162 / com.skype.raider
Similar situation with Version 7.32.99.490 / com.skype.polaris and 7.24.0.255 / com.skype.raider
This issue with Stock is probably due to the fact that it uses the Leanback verison of the App, and thus deactivite the camera-related features.

I'm also having some issues with Skype on Nougat full Android (ROM by @zulu99 on http://www.videomap.it/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1646 ), which version of Skype are you using?

Up.
Is Skype really fully functional in your case on Full Android? If so, could you share your setup?
Thanks

I search recently for a working Video call App on my shield. After the Nougat / android 7 update, I try Skype Lite and WhatsApp.
The current beta of WhatsApp was working great. But the video crashed after a period of time.
In the Skype Lite apk, I was able to upload Feedback to Microsoft. If more people would do this ms could think about to be the first, full and stable video messenger for the living room.
Just sideload the newest apk from here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/skype/...ite-1-0-0-27544-release-android-apk-download/ and tab on the Feedback area.

I don't have experience with Skype Lite, but Microsoft voluntary stopped to support Skype on (smart) TV last year.
Thus, they will not be first, they were already there, and alternatives exist.

Did you think they mean not just only smart TVs. In the last year Android TV was not really on the market. Perhaps they mean just smart TVs with own build os's like Samsung and All the other did before they use Android. Create an Android OS App is much easyer than do it for many many different os's from the different TV companys.
Can you tell me the working alternatives? I try many different Video call messengers without success.

My alternative was to move to Marshmallow StockRestyle ROM from @zulu99, check this post for more details on the comparison.
This ROM is not available on XDA anymore, but Google will help you find your way.
I'm now using a full Android Nougat ROM, from @zulu99 too, but Skype video calls aren't working (yet) and I cannot downgrade to Marshmallow. Thus, for the moment, if Skype is a must I'd recommend to use the Marshmallow StockRestyle ROM (and to check my ROMs comparison post). Also, note that Marshmallow StockRestyle ROM can only be installed on 2015 models, not on 2017 ones!
I hope that help.

Did you try Skype-lite: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/skype/skype-lite/
Greetings by Idijt
Hello,
Skype-Lite wasn't working.
I moved back to Marshmallow StockRestyle, where Skype 6.15 was working, but now it's also unsupported (Skype now requires a Windows account).
Thus, my updated question: has anyone been successful with the new version of Skype release this summer (version 8.xx)?
I am using custom ROM and already flasshed 3. I got few problem there llikely Google contacts for contact sync browser, video player, gapps problem. I am using lineage 17.1 from AB Arbab. I am facing network issues here and also browser problem. UI and theme is superb but updated browser, video player, contact sync and betwork issues need to be fixed.
Second request is a nethunter support at least a considerable ROM. For nethunter I am ready to convince half of of devices feature except call experience onlu
By the way thanks to Arbab and Penguin bro.
