Ever my 2.2 upgrade, pictures are showing as short videos. When I click on them they show as picture. Kind of a pain because there is always this big play arrow. What bugs me is I saw this somewhere but never saw an answer and now I can't find it back. Any answers to this one yet?

my phone has done this since i got it in august 2010
I posted this recently in the Firefly Q&A thread. I was sure too that this only showed up after upgrading - either a Firefly issue or a 2.2 issue. I didn't remember it happening when I was on stock 2.1. But others assured me that it's just the way Android does it - even on 2.1. Some even said regular dumbphones will show MMS pictures as little videos.

I saw a SamsungIM in the SGS 2 system dump..
Tried to install but can't connect.
Guess this should be a whatsapp like or maybe a facetime like ?
Nervertheless, concerning talk with video, should be ported even for 2.3.2/3
if it is true, we don't need to wait for skype video.
That would be cool, if/when, it is pushed out for the TB.

Well.. You are right but... I would still like Skype video..
I was reading somewhere, some time ago, that with 2.3 we will have video on Skype.. Obviously they are not in hurry because of fu..ing Apple..
So this with G Talk would be really nice for "strat" of video messengers..

Stock 2.2.2 wifi only tablet no o.c. I tried changing app settings to use only wifi and still no go. Maybe the app is looking for a data connection anyway?
Hi I am another one who has the same closing when sign in on HBO go. It works superb on my 5. I also changed settings to wifi only. I was running stock 2.2 but now am on dj Steves 1.3 I believe it is. Any ideas would be awesome.

Crazy that it works flawless on the 5 and I have djs custom rom on it. I keep thnking t has to he something smple lol.

Same issue here. I just picked up a streak and was very disappointed by this. Though I suppose we couldn't expect much more out of a struggling mom and pop business like Hbo.
yeah same problem on mine, also for the Nook color surprisingly enough.
you can probably fix the app by chnging lcd density
look at this thread:

I borrowed this from user "underwater" at pocketables thread where I post on my 5. He mentioned when getting hbo go to work on his streak 5 he had to edit his build.prop like so:
ro.build.description=streak-user 2.2 FRF91 43546 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=dell/streak/streak/8x50:2.2/FRF91/eng.cmbuild.20101207.16402
I know how to do this but just got my 5 working from brick status so I'm nervous on trying for the 7. Plus I don't even know if this edit makes sense. But thought id throw it out there.

I figured this would be a bigger issue than it seems to be. Do others have this working? Jst want a solution if anyone has thoughts.

Still not working on my dell strak 7 . I run stock. You can download from market do anything in app until u go to sign in. when you click sign in it crashes. Also I dont see how changing density or build prop would fix the situation of signing in. I have heard you get issues signing in cause o it being wifi version. I heard any 3g version works. Something to do with radio antenna. I wish someone would fix this. Maybe when we get honeycomb it will fix it....
Thanks all if anyone can help.
Yep same here running stock 2.2 rooted.
The Cinamax app does the same thing.
You see the flash screen, you get the initial list, but pick anything and get the log in button and once you select it you get FC
Hey guys, same problem... somewhat expected more since HBOGo works fine on my Samsung Captivate (2.2) Also has anybody else using Facebook noticed the update software at the top of the screen ? I cant download the new Facebook... is the dell Streak worth keeping ? Ive noticed the Acer Iconia A500 with a few nicer spec's, just concerned about the battery life being shoter on the Acer than on the Dell....
Thanks...
Download this app called multitouch visible test from Google play store. Also watch this video first. Type in google Nexus 7 touchscreen problem caught on video its on zdnet. Can't post links since am under 10 post

I don't have the issue.... I think the issue he is showing is software related.

Where do you get a Tegra 3 game that will push the cores since that seems to be a factor?

Eh the Galaxy Nexus had THIS EXACT problem when it first came out. Software update fixed it.
I'm not worried.
I would suggest not testing if you don't notice anything. So many people discover issues they wouldn't have cared about otherwise because of threads like this. The screen separation issue is one. How many people wouldn't have even noticed? I wouldn't have, especially once I got my Nexus in a case.
So far I have no issues at all with my tablet. Have been using it since yesterday and working perfect. But I hate chrome browser even though it's better then it was on the a500.maybe I just need to get used to it. Also I get lagg in resizing text auto.
We have been discussing this issue here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789450 the multitouch test shows the bug even if you didn't play, you only need to put the tablet on the desk and it will happen ;(
Looks like a new OTA is rolling out from google with build #15250 according to This reddit post. Once I get my hands on it, I will post any noticeable changes here.
Noticeable Changes:
Removal of v2mirrioring binary
Updated eureka_shell that prevents custom whitelisting
Addition of mdnsd service
Build version moved up to 1.4
New Kernel Loading Image (Now says Chromecast... instead of Loading Chromecast...)
Updated WiFi Drivers
Added bootloader boot/error images
New Image Signing keys?!
EDIT: *Retracted*
EDIT2: Source is dropped for most things, same place as usual: https://code.google.com/p/chromecast-mirrored-source/
Let this be a discussion thread for the new build. Has anyone seen the update yet?

The OTAs rollout over about a week so that is normal.
Not sure what is in this newest build but a few folks over at Plex Forum are reporting issues with Streams not playing more than 5 Mins after getting this update....

Some reporting an issue, Others saying they are fine...
It's working for DancherBoi which is someone I regard as reliable as far as reporting experience is concerned so it may be nothing to worry about.
I've received the update however still haven't noticed any significant changes.

It is really hard to notice changes to Chromecast updates easily. Most likely it is bug fixes and updates for the upcoming SDK. There could be some more apps coming soon and this is being done in preparation for that.

That is actually a thread I started and After I posted that I stopped using the android app on my phone and it started working again. Since then I have not had a single problem with the app or the chromecast. My second chromecast has not updated yet either.

I'm betting the issues some had were not update related but related to Google Services being on the fritz that day.
Recieved the update earlier today. Not noticed any significant changes as yet, though connecting does seam faster as well as sending s stream from YouTube and Netflix. Not tried out Avia yet, but will be later today, will update with anything further I noticed. The main observations though is an overall speed improvement, though this could just be me imagining things not based on anything concrete.

What did it gave us before? What will it give (or take away) now. Good or bad? if bad for non rooted users, can "we" keep it in "our" rom?
Will it be problem now for Koush?
I have my CC setup to go to US Netflix by blocking the DNS request and setting Unlocator's DNS's on my router. It has been working fine, but last night and tonight I have not been able to use Netflix on the CC - when I try the Netflix screen displays for a while and then it says "Unable to Connect at this time." I just noticed that it has updated to 15250. I'm not sure when the update happened but I'm concerned that it has broken our workaround...
EDIT: It is working now. I connected to the internet by watching a video on Youtube and then went back to Netflix and it worked, without changing any router settings.

Likewise !
destroyed most of my chromecast usability
Since I got the update, I cant cast my computer via Chrome. It just sits with a blank screen. Audio is cast, but no video. I've tried multiple computers. Trying to read up on it. The only issues I could find is a known router issue w/ upnp and the comcast router/modem combo. Wish I could go back. It was working great before.

The last Google Cast update was 3 weeks ago. It would of already updated automatically by now.
Oddly, I received the update last Friday and did not have issues.
Now today I am unable to cast a tab from my CPU and I am at a loss as to why.
I checked my router and everything looks correct, I have restated my CC twice and that has not fox the issue either.
Just going to wait and see if letting sit for a bit might fix whatever is wrong.
