Having flashed took paranoid Android 2.50 and loving it, I have lost the Samsung video editor.
Googles movie studio is just riddled with bugs and crashes like crazy, so I'm looking for the Samsung apk.
I came across it but after installing to system and changing the permissions..... Nothing!
Does anyone know if the Samsung editor works on paranoid Android? And if so which apk do I need?
Thanks guys
you need to dig out the videoeditor libs from stock or cm rom, that might make it work..
Many thanks.
I have trawled the forums and found the latest version of the Google movie studio, the one that's in the stock ROMs, and I get the same issues. Primarily it won't allow me to add transitions.... It just hangs.
Any further thoughts?
Each and every video Editor in the play store is either incredibly slow or fills your device with ads....

Let me start off saying I have exactly 5 days of Android experience, with my rooted B&N nook (weird not to capitalize that) and that I loath the default music player.
It runs Android 1.5, I've tried a couple 1.5 music players but they were closed source and nearly impossible to use. (Mixzing, 3/^3/Cubed, btunes wouldn't install) With the nook's setup, Android sees one screen, 600x944 with 120 pixels cropped at the right because the 480x144 LCD screen that displays the loader isn't as wide. The default music player is abysmal.
So I am here, with the Android SDK + all 1.5 related things installed to it, instructions for running the firmware in the emulator, and my rooted nook. Hoping somebody will give me some tips as to how I can take some open source player (defualt one of some other device?) and change the UI as to make the normal controls reachable on the LCD with (not necessarily needed) the filemanager/playlist displaying up top. Or build my own simple one.
Still researching and reading on my own, but any direct help would be amazing. This might also launch me into developing some more much needed apps for the nook...
Thanks
im not sure i understand but look up the music beautification mod by elliot stocker i do believe
Has anyone tried installing the new music app? Its telling me my device isn't compatible. Stock the hero isn't (requires 2.2+) but I'm running cm7 (2.3), and I'm in the US. What else could it be?
worked fine for me. just installed it using the link you posted
running cm7 as well
I'm having trouble installing it as well.
I figured it out. It requires OpenGL 2.0+. You can do the build.prop trick to set your opengl version to 131072 and it will install after a reboot.
Oh, the build.prop trick. That's a love/hate relationship right there. Doesn't seem to work for me despite some users having success over at the CM forum.
Using CM7.03
Edit: After 3 hours of this post, it randomly showed up as downloadable on my Market. I guess the build.prop edit worked. Thanks for the tip, maxpower.
Installed it on CM7. There is no settings option I can see to allow streaming.
works...
It installed and works fine on my Hero (CM7.0.3). Not sure that I'm a fan yet, but it works. It would probably be better if i had a beta invite for Google Music.
Yea, the Amazon mp3 app can store music I buy in the cloud. I tried it out, and what I found was I never listened to that music and I've since just downloaded it to my phone and/or computer. This will have an appeal but I own tens of thousands of songs. I'm not gonna upload them or buy them again just so they're in the cloud.
~maybe I set it too high...
The new Hulu Plus app just came out and I've got a gTab with the following in the about tablet section:
Model: TnT G-Harmony
And 2.2
Tap UI version: TnT G-Harmony v1
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty
Build: FRF91
I've used this as my daily for a while. What do I have to do to get the tab to be seen as compatible with Netflix and Hulu Plus app? new build.prop? Thanks in advance.
Not sure if it fully works as I don't have an account to log in with...
However, it did stream the "free gallery" on my Gtablet running CM7.03.
Netflix definitely works on CM7.03.
I do not see them in the Market but they have both been posted around. For Netflix I just download it on my Droid (supported device) and transfer it over to my Gtablet. For HuluPlus, Droid-life.com has the app.
I've got the apk, but I get 'Device not supported' post install. Could you just try the install to see if your build is supported/no errors?
I'm searching for my new daily build and wondering what's best combo for flash, netflix, hulu plus now and video playback in general. Want to stick to Froyo I think until HW acceleration is better implemented on later versions. Also, I see baseline 1.2 and Caulk+Clem for best kernel. I'm not advanced but can follow the steps to drop a new rom on. What's your opinion and could you point me to a solid daily rom noting above?
Like I said.....it installed and I was able to stream the "free gallery", I just can't log in to see if it gives all/full functions of those with an account.
Running stock CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable)
It runs fine for me without any noticible issues. I didn't have to modify the build.prop or anything else; just installed it without any tricks.
I just watched an episode of The Daily Show and it ran great. The video ran much smoother than watching it via the hacked Flash file via the Hulu website so I'm thinking the video player in the Hulu Plus app plays video modified for mobile devices unlike the Hulu website.
Here is the apk. Enjoy.
Note: If you have videos in your queue that are tagged as "web only" then this Hulu Plus app will not play them. So I would recommend keeping the hacked Flash for Hulu so you can watch them via the web browser.

For Netflix I used the latest version from the Market and it works great without any build.prop mods. Same for the Hulu Plus app (see my previous post for apk). I'm running CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable) haven't tried it on my VEGAn 5.1.1 gTab yet.
It definitely works on Cyanogen 7.0.3. Got Netflix, Hulu+, & Flash on my tablet now.
If Plants vs. Zombies wouldn't lock up & it would boot up faster, I would have reached tablet nirvana.

For Hulu+, I see it in market using the mahimahi string in my build prop and the device set as olympus on a froyo rom based on calkulin 1.1. I too get device unsupported when launching.
For PvZ, you can get it working, but need froyo and this kernle: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128866

Thank you for this apk. It works flawlessly for me on Vegan GE. With the netflix fix posted earlier in the link below, and now this hulu plus app I don't ever see me needing to leave Vegan GE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15147560&postcount=13
so is there any way to get hulu+ working on froyo
hulu+ on Flashback 10.1
I've managed to get around the "device not supported" problem with hulu+ app working on flashback 10.1, but the video shows up in the bottom left hand corner with the top half of the vid cut off. I've tried setting the resolution of playback to every setting. I also tried different density settings for the display, nothing seems to be able to move the vid to the center of the screen. Anyone having the same problem? Anyone have any other ideas on how to get the video to the center of the screen? Sorry if this has been covered, did a search here and in the general questions sections, didn't see anything, I hope i didn't miss it...lol
I haven't tried it on Flashback but even if it works for you perfectly it will still limit what videos will play (only ones tagged "mobile") on it based on what agreements Hulu has with the content provider.
I stopped using the app on my gTab almost as soon as I installed it when I realized that I can play everything (tv, mobile, computer) Hulu has to offer via my browser and the hacked Flash for Hulu unlike the Hulu Plus app.
Just my two cents...

I don't think you missed anything. I've tried everything you have tried. The video doesn't move. I assumed that the app thinks this is an ASUS tablet which has a higher resolution. I tried editing build.prop but nothing has worked. Hopefully the new kernel will correct this for us. I cut off cable because of HULU and would like to have it on my tab as well. Just tired of looking at Froyo and Gingerbread.
up and running
Well i gave up on getting flashback to work right. Flashed CM7.1 and i have the hulu+ and netflix working...now onto get the hbo go and max go apps working.
I just thought i would share with you guys a fix i have been looking in to since installing the new LPX13D preview a few days ago.
Quit a lot of videos that are viewed inside of browsers try to use the vp9 codec, and by the look of things it is not yet fully supported (both in chrome and the android /framework itself).
I have spent hours of my time trying to figure this out, simply because it was just bugging me. I could have easily just watched the video in the YouTube app itself which seems to work just fine.
This fix is assuming that you use the chrome browser on your device.
Open up the browser and type in to the address bar chrome://flags
Next, find the option "Disable media source API" and press enable so it now says disable.
Now find the option for "Enable GPU rasterization" and set it to "Force-enabled for all layers"
That's it, now you can watch and enjoy your videos without the green/purple tint overlaying them.
Thanks! It worked like a charm
Awesome. Worked like a charm. Thanks.
permanent fix
Is there anyway that there is a more permanent fix for this. I am on CyanogenMod 12 nightlies and I still have that problem...
Thank you so much for this fix! Too bad this does not work inside feedly where I still get the pink tint in embedded videos
I figured out what @cars1189 posted minutes ago in his CM12 thread, that it will really slow down the device when you flash the GApps with the rom since the Exhibit 4G's system stuff are kinda old and stuff and needed to be tweaked, therefore for maximum performance on a daily basis, it has to be used without it.
By the way, Here's the link to the ROM.
With that in mind, here are my suggestions for apps that replace the Google Apps.
Camera:
Stock Camera or any other Camera app.
Camcorder:
Stock Camera or I'll look for a Camcorder app in an app store
Google Play App Store:
I am using Aptoide. 1mobile and mobogenie works. Just make sure Unknown Sources is checked in Dev options.
Youtube:
TubeMate (from Android Freeware) and FreeDi. FreeDi can be played through background.
You can watch YT Videos on UC Browser Too.
Maps:
None. GPS messed up. I will find solution.
Music:
Stock music app or 3rd party music app like PowerAMP or MX Player
Fit:
I've been using Runtastic.
Sheets, Docs, and Slides:
WPS Office.
Chrome:
Stock Browser (though that browser sucked)
I also suggested UC, UC Mini, CM Browser and Firefox.
Launcher:
Either Trebuchet Launcher3 or KK Launcher.
Google+:
Man, I don't know.... I will look for a 3rd party app that doesn't use Google Services, but an external service.
Gmail:
You can check Gmail using UC Browser.
Drive:
You can add a Google Drive account and view your files using ES File Explorer
Share some suggestions for apps that DO NOT NEED GOOGLE SERVICES OR GAPPS!

Basic statment to the point:
I in no way am recommending anyone not use gapps. In fact the only thing i said directly relating to gapps was: "I have never used any Cyanogenmod rom without gapps installed". And despite the rom in general NOT just gapps being slower than past roms i still use it as my daily.
I definitely in no way said that gapps will make the phone too slow.
Directly in responce:
Thats the only statment directly at gapps. The rest of it is general information because everyone always says something about performance. The rest of my statement only says that i had one random reboot with kkernel since you asked about it and then goes into detail about why going forward nobody should expect the same or better performance than say 4.4 + K^Kernel, again since you asked about speed. Now if you feel that the performance decrease warrants not using gapps because it makes it too slow then thats your opinion. I in no way meant to discourage users from using gapps. Im sorry if my post was confusing.
Other information related to this post:
While i think gapps are pretty usefull. I will admit that apps like waze not only replaces maps fairly decently but also makes enhancements. The idea of making a mundane task like driving to work potentially a fun/social event by being able to interact with others i think is cool. Do i recommend people replacing apps you mention no, but do i think presenting them to others to consider is a good idea sure some of them do bring cool ideas like that with waze. I AM IN NO WAY RECOMMENDING. However i dont think this post should be deleted either. Just dont put words in my mouth please. Again this also isnt a angry post or anything, maybe my post was just confusing this is just to let everyone know what i meant to say and how i feel, and if you could correct your post accordingly i would appreciate it.
More detail about what i meant:
Also what i meant by old system stuff is that theres most likely a bit of a performance hit because of the old binaries/libraries that could get worse with newer android versions. Sometimes we have to update our "wrappers" to these libs to work with newer android versions. If you look in logs you can see where it says something like " *lib name* uses *blank* which is *insert ineffeciant or waste of memory here* please fix ". And thats not gonna go away anytime soon. One of the few libs it said this about i did just replace, 3 of the others it mentions im working on now. Is there more? maybe idk im working on it. However they are prorpietary files replacing them isnt that easy. And this doesnt mean that gapps is slow because of our libs. In fact gapps likely uses its own libs for things it does and so do other apps maybe. However if a app does user for example anyother lib im gonna replace libjpeg(since its already opensource) if a app doesnt use their own libjpeg maybe its slower because its using our old one. Maybe if apps do use the system lib i could replace libjpeg with libjpeg-turbo since its "2-4x as fast as libjpeg" on arm neon. However the libjpeg code(original) has been unchanged since 2008 so will it be faster idk maybe compiled with a newer compiler might help.
Side note: you guys do know that the file he linked is the md5sum right and not the rom? I only mention it because more people have downloaded it than the rom, could be just re-downloads but just saying lol.
