Guys I own a unrooted optimus one with stock firmware 2.2.2 My problem is after a few hours of usage.. the stock video player on my optimus one shows an error "the contents of this video cannot be played". It happens in some 524x384 videos and mostly in 640x360. At the same instance Mobo Player (hardware decoding) would also stutter and fail to play the file. After that If I restart my phone and run those videos all would play very smoothly (even media files above 1 GB & video files of 720x480). But after a gud 12-13 hrs of brief usage of my phone(mostly internet usage 7 few calls) again the error would show up ruining my video viewing experience. But videos in 320x240 would play ?
What is the reason for this error ? Any possible solution.
Note- I kept a minimal list of apps(5-6), used stock LG launcher, killed all tasks & cache files thinking it would solve the issue but the problem still persists !!
I am afraid you wont be able to solve this problem without rooting.
Its due to less VM heap size.

I have absolutely no problem to root. actually I was not getting stock 2.2 firmware for download. anyways please tell me how to overcome this less VM heap size issue . I am desperate
You will have to edit the dalvik.vm.heapsize value in /syatem/build.prop

many many thanks buddy 4 coming out with a solution for my problem. I will surely be doing it next week when my engineering exams get over and inform you the results. but till then please answer some of my last queries. what is dalvik.vm & why does it need to new edited ? what is its default or current value ? and what does 48m mean ? u see I previously owned an optimus gt540 and never faced such issues..so these questions are likely to pop up in my mind. please clarify if possible. once again thanks from the bottom of, my heart for resolving my issue.

Hi
Firstly u have to root ur phone in order to rid off this situation, u can root through gingerbreak (search on xda). when rooting is done ur phone restarts and then install busybox from market.open this app. click install. when status is done. install VMhealtool search on xda. the default vm(Virtual Memory) size is 24 change it to 48 and then reboot ur phone. Now install Mobo player and mobo codec from market. and open mobo player goto the menu check soft decoeding option. and its done . U can now play videos through mobo. u can even play 720p video(1280x688) with out any convertion but its lags. so use xvid4psp video convert software for best playing videos on ur LG P-500.
CLick thanks if i help u..
Bhawan
thanks a ton bhawan ! u really made my day. now I understand its because of people like xda is so popular. ur explanation is very detailed and cleared all my queries regarding this issue. thank u so much bro!

Not quite sure what I did to mess it up now... The other night when I installled dcs everything worked fine like a charm and I know this because I was testing out the HD vid record. I'm not sure if its from adding the kernels or adons in that post for the rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314898
Now when I go into camera I get a white screen where the camera image is suppose to be both static pics n video camera showing this white screen.
Please help
One of your apps has caused the white screen. You can either uninstall the app or change the video settings of the ROM. The information on how to do the latter can be found in the DSC ROM thread.
Yeah I reinstalled via system recovery dcs n now it works

Well I made the thread seeking help.. The main problem I just discovered is chainfire 3d installing the plugins seems to make the camera and video codecs or what not seem to go white for now the only solution is to uninstall the driver n reboot everytime I want to watch youtube videos n vice versa when I want to play hd games...
So now to reiterate my thread.. Help! My camera turns white...this is due to chainfire 3d n its a common problem bcuz Theres another thread here

I wanna say that I have seen a solution for your problem somewhere, when I say solution I mean it involves not having to factory reset. I'd point you in the right direction if I knew which thread it was in, but seeing as I don't use the Chainfire 3D hack then I can't elaborate
Awww that sucks.. Cuz the process I'm using now really sucks.. Involves too much time reverting back n fourth. Do you happen to know which topic the thread was under?

How many games do have on your phone and how big. It usually happens when you run out of memory.if u many apps (300+) or many big games then try delete a few of them and reboot. This usually fixes the problem

I just have a few apps and games in my device like
Whatapp
Skype
Way2sms
Shadowgun
Virtua tennis
Nova 3
Temple run
Max payne
Nd before opening the game i make sure all the other apps are closed....
While on my galaxy s2 i hav 15 games nd many other apps 2
Still i can play ashpalt 6 nd minimize it nd open shadowgun as well nd both works if i switch btw them...
I had le8 firmware preinstalled on my and that was laggy and filled with bugs, i even had thoughts of returning the phone.but was waiting for new firmware, because most of the bugs was software related and when is switched to lf2 firmware, all my issues was fixes.
But if u never flashed a rom,then either wait for Samsung to release update through kies or
u can learn how to flash your self. There are lots of guides on how to root and flash roms.
Galaxy s3 toolkit is a great flashing tool.but what u need to know is:.. how to flash with ODIN
And how to recover your phone after a bad flash(this rarely happens,if u follow step by step rules.. : how to use cwm(clockworkmod) recovery installed on your phone and rooting(root).
Optional..;how to use ADB.
It takes about 1 (maybe 2) hour of reading and your good to go and u are able to recover your phone if u forget a step on the way.
Try and go to app manager and move the games to SD-card
Same here, playing a game and lock the device it kills the game.. Some games at least

First can you use proper words when writing it's irritating to read "bt" "sme" and then the brain needs to translate it. It's ok if you're writing from the phone but if you are writing from a pc use a little more words to make sense.
OT: go to settings then developer options and scroll all the way down. In apps category see if "Do not keep activities" is checked and also see what's the setting on "Limit background processes". For me it's standard limit

Yes that's what i mentioned to the OP. He's abbreviating words but the stupid thing is he's doing it to small words like but (bt), some (sme) and (nd).. pathetic.
We use BT for bluetooth, SME for Small medium enterprise..
Thanx for clarifying and using your phone isn't an excuse,i always(almost) write from my phone. Just untick auto correction

I wouldn't expect too much help around here in the future if I was you. I'm not sure how old you are (guessing early teens based on your postings to date) but here's a hint that applies everywhere, not just here : People more knowledgeable than you are much more likely to help you if you take the effort to make yourself understood. That usually involves using language in a way that's generally acceptable - not some bastardisation of the language that you've invented because you're too lazy/ignorant/illiterate to spell words correctly.

I think this forum is not only for making devices works normally. With out finding the root case how can we provide the solution,So many techies are finding new thing that means they are simply giving the solutions without knowing the cause.
This forum is for RND's,Customizations and corrective actions. :highfive:
I'll tell you the reason.. Ics released in our device is buggy and its one of the bugs, most of the bugs just disappear by this and resetting would cure this as well

Hi there everyone,
So heres my problem, idk if it can be solved my the music app - but i expect so! If not it means much more complicated things....
I have been given an old (its almost as big as my desktop PC!!!) mini disc player, for which to play sound effects in a local Panto. The reason apparently for this is that,
1)you can label tracks
2)you can pause then navigate to track
3) The most important one: When you press play IT MUST START PLAYING IN LESS THAN A SECOND! they actually claim the mini disc player does it in millseconds - ive not tested that yet but not 100% convinced.
I've been told that they have tried using a laptop before, and CD's and a tape deck, all of which SOMETIMES have a delay. They said something along the lines of, "you never know if the computer is thinking about updating or whatever, so its slow to react." I can see how thats true.
So i have a GS3, I use the samsung stock music player, but ive noticed with the screen off, from time to time I get a "jerk" in the music, I've also seen it take a second to begin playing. I know of course that like a laptop, my phone maybe doing other things which slow it down. I've used Winamp (free version) and loved it on my old HTC Desire but even then I remember it sometimes had a delay. I have a 16gb (samsung) class 6 SDcard, and ive tested it, I know the sdcard isnt the problem. o n its fat32...
anyway before I ramble on too much, I want to use my phone for the job, here's my question:
Which apps (if any) can PROMISE the fast response EVERYTIME?
or
Can you FORCE a music app to stay in foreground memory or whatever it needed to get the result?
or
will changing my sounds file format help? if so what do you suggest? *.Wav maybe?
or
Can I disable other background schedules? (i dont mean like using aeroplane mode or disabling wifi or sync n all that - I can do that I mean a app running in the background)
ANY advice or suggestions or things to try would be greatly appreciated (and thanked), I've got a few weeks before the first rehearsal, and I'd LOVE to show them how its done in the modern world.
There's a setting in poweramp that let's you keep the app in memory, so that it's not unloaded from the ram when the phone's idle. That sounds like what you're looking for.

I recommend you mortplayer, but since your requirements are too much specific I guess you have to try some players until one of them adjust to your necessities.
I use mortplayer because the folder as playlist feature...

That's a good start thanks, I'll look into it.
And It's not about specifics, it's about speed... all speed no lag, I'm talking milliseconds thats not normally noticable, i intend to test using 100fps video camera.

Good stuff. It's suitable for your needs then?
I've got it down to 3/8 of a second by freezing lots of apps, disabling sync n all wireless connections (aeroplane mode etc ) and using poweramp with persistent service enabled. I'm happy with that, but if you can this of anything else to try please do not hesitate to reply!

Hello dear posters,
I think my question is clear. You know Facebook gets updated almost every week. I don't remember but, for older versions of Facebook after hitting a video thumbnail, I was able to choose any player that installed my device ( MX Player, BSplayer etc.)
But after nowadays updates it's changed. When I hit a video it starts directly in Facebook app without asking which way I'd like to play..
I don't want to turn back to previous versions of Facebook and don't want to install 3th party apps.
Is there any ideas how to disable Facebook's default video player?
Can we change some permissions via Root Explorer?
Thanks in advance,

Thank you for your help dude but this is not the solution. You mentioned clear defaults. I know that ?
But The problem is, in Facebook app it doesn't ask you which player you'd like to play. After hitting a video it starts directly.
Therefore; you don't choose anything by mistake so as to clear defaults.

on the pc it's
settings/general/videos click to off
should be a similar thing in the app?
“Auto-play videos on Wi-Fi only”
will still do it on wifi but that's the best you can do for now until FB changes/fixes it.
maybe do FB through a browser instead of the app?
I think that there is a built in player in the app, so the solution should be browsing through a internet browser, which has been said.
No it's not working native browser, either..

Try using not the desktop version of Facebook, but the mobile version.
I've tested, also tested user agent switchers but failed.. I think the only solution to change Facebook files and change permissions via Root Explorer and text editor
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk
Downgrade to older versions of Facebook app? The ones that allowed you to choose your vid player. You'll have to Google search it.
Thank you dear friends. These are solutions of think differently but i've been searching for a technical solution. Yes i know there are so many older facebook apks to solve that but that's not a real solution for me.. I want to use latest
