Hey guys,
I have a question and maybe you can help me out.
I bought a sony xperia s, and accidentally deleted my hd demo videos that where standard on the phone.
Does anybody have them?
If so can you please upload them?
And now im talking about hd videos, i have 1 more question.
If i want to watch a movie on my xperia s (lord of the rings for example)
How can i get that on my phone in hd quality?
Do i have to convert or can i buy movies?
I live in the netherlands and we have no movie support from sony....
Hope you guys can help me out
Cya
i would like to find out too how to get the hd movies as HD as the one provided by sony when we first buy our phones , details would be like what converter to use and so on and etc
AFAIK, hd videos should be in avc format for the XS to play them correctly
What about this?

Damn, I lost those two videos too. Done factory reset.
UPDATE:
Got it. Found it.... on my hard drive. Because Box.com won't accept files over 100MB, I packed 1 video into 2 archives.
Xperia HD Landscapes.mp4
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatball.mp4 (part 1)
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatball.mp4 (part 2)
WOOOOT!!!
Thanks buddy for the videos.
This is exactly i was looking for.
And because of you, i got the answer on the 2nd question to.
All videos are mp4
For others video formats you can use mx player.
This is a really good app because it loads subs to...
Cya
What subs format? .srt?
It is funny, because only couple of people requested it, but by now, about 20 people downloaded HD demo videos and about the same downloaded Avengers trailer.
The best app to convert video is Handbrake. Not the easiest, but it's the fastest and the best once you figure out the right settings.
hi,
here is one sample that i did with my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538307
the focus issue is cause of the option we choosed, bad choice,, we should of choose "infinite"

I agree with this. Once you get the right settings saved to a profile, it's nice and easy. Perhaps we need a sticky with the best settings once we work it out.
once you found out the setting would you please post it for us here =) would be so damn great i tried to tinker around with it earlier and well no result .
By the way i was one of the people who downloaded the avengers video any idea where to download other videos like that?
Believe it or not, Avengers trailer I have posted above comes from YouTube. I use Firefox with YouTube downloader plugin. It basically adds an extra button on site, where you can choose what version you want to download.

Sorry guys, but at the moment I had to disable access to all 4 files, because I reached 85% of my monthly download allowance on Box.com. That means you downloaded 8.5GB of data.

So I was doing some research last night to try and get Kingdom Hearts on my phone. I was successful, but the quality of the game is horrible. I even tried a couple different downloads.
This is what I did:
I downloaded the full version of psx4droid, downloaded the bios, downloaded the game rom and downloaded androzip.
I put all of them in a folder in my sd card. Used androzip to extract the bios and the game rom zip file. Then I opened psx4droid and located the bio and set it. Then search for the game rom and launched it. The game plays fine, with no stalls what so ever. But for some reason the quality of the game is really bad, and when I go in to the setting and change the ratio to original size the game size is really tiny.
What I don't understand is the normal size of this game has a larger aspect ratio so why would it be smaller? Does anyone know any tricks on how to get a better quality out of any of the roms games? Thanks
Psx4droid isn't very good. You have to get fpse from the market, it's a pay app but it's worth it. I'm playing ff7 right now with a good framerate and full working sound.

Do know where I can find a full tutorial on how to do it. I have a few playstation games, and ps2 games that I would like to get on my phone but having no luck.
1. Download the FPSE app from the market.
2. Download the psx bios from here:
http://www.roms4droid.com/bios/SCPH1001.zip
3. Open up FPSE, it will automatically prompt you to select the bios. (I recommend putting all roms and the bios file in a folder on your external sd card)
4. Select the ROM you want to play.
Everything should automatically scale to full screen with fpse. Also, fpse only reads IMG and ISO files I believe.
For some roms you have to enable spusync for the audio to play correctly (ff7 being one of those roms). Enable it by menu -> audio -> spusync.
And there are no emulators available currently that will run a PS2 game.

Thank you. I tried three different downloads of that rom and still the quality is horrible. The size ratio when I set it to original is really small, it must be that rom is the only one on the web. I am downloading FFVIII to give that a try. Thank you for the instructions, at least I am doing it correctly. Just need to find a better rom.

I've never tried kingdom Hearts but every rom I did try (xenogears, suikoden, ff7, tenchu) ran flawlessly and at full screen by default.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Its got to be that rom then. I just finished downloading all the cds for ff8. About to give it a try.
Do you know if I will run in to a problem when I finish disc one and start disc two? Will it let me proceed with my saved data like normal?
Still no luck, I put the .zip file in the folder, I used a third party app to extract it in the same location, than tried to play it......."cannot find bin file..... .bin file must be named as the .cue file."
Finally got it....wow....that tool alot more research.... I had to take the zip files, extract the .bin files from them and then zip them using a unecm file that I found online which converted them to a rom format....works awesome! Thank you for all your help dude!

Sorry I didn't respond. Yes you must unecm most psx roms. And don't try the unecm app on the market because it doesn't work. I usually unzip and unecm the roms on my PC then I transfer them via wifi file transfer pro to my phone.

No worries dude, you were a big help. I also did it on my computer. Worked like a charm....was playing FF8 for like an hour, love that game.

Yea ff8 is great. To answer your question about disc changing.. I'm not sure because I haven't gotten to that point yet, I'm assuming just make sure you have the disc 2 iso ready to go before hand.
Also, some games are extremely hard to play (tenchu) with just touch screen controls, lol. I think I'll stick to just rpgs for now.
PS. Try the n64oid app it runs games like ocarina of time or mario 64 flawlessly.

Nice, will do. Thank you
Just for info. When you choose "original", the reason it's small is due to the original resolution of a PSX game being 640x480 (for NTSC) to fit a television screen. Your Galaxy Note is 1280x800.

is there any music player that doesn't automatically scan all the sd card?
i listen to audiobooks on my phone too and currently using winamp but it lists all the audiobook files as well as the my music tracks which is a bit annoying. tried stock player which has the same behaviour.

Power Amp. You can select the folder for your mp3 and it will scan only them.

There are other options too.
MIXZING for example it has both the functions that you need.scan a particular folder as well as play by folder.
U can give it a try but nothing beats power amp.using it from a long time.if you can afford it just go for it.
Edit: mixzing is free

unfortunately i can't afford poweramp but I'll give mixzing a try, thanks

As of ics when you move browser in the background, that is switch from browser to another app, the flash content on the web page gets paused, like the waiting seconds countdown on a file sharing website, it simply means you can't multitask,
So is there a app that can prevent the browser from being dead in the background, or a floating browser will do the trick

I meant with browsers not YouTube app. With opera we can easily browse other tabs while listening to music on YouTube, even without ram manager. Well I guess I'll just have to stick with SuperVideo.
Btw, what other improvements ram manager makes? Other than keeping flash on file sharing sites while background, which opera does by itself, I think, there seems to be no visible changes..
Found a workaround in Firefox
Thought I'd share this workaround.
1. Flash Player (I'm using version 11.1.115.12)
2. Firefox for Android (version 17)
3. Use site requiring flash
4. Open settings menu in Firefox
5. Press Home/Power button to multitask/shutoff display.
Useful for flash music / radio / video.
You may want to use another browser to surf with music in the background.
cons:
Music continues playing if headphones pop out.
Not too sure of the battery drain.
Works on my stock Verizon S3 Jelly.

Hi JJeng, i use note s2 and downloaded firefox v18 but couldnt find an option home/power - multitask/shutoff - do u know where to find. and is it possible to use ram manager pro without rooting my phone.
Got it. Misunderstood your steps. Working fine now. Thanks a lot.
Tnks, fr tc suggestion,
But wht I'm looking for is live gold rates, wht i exactly want is, when i move to another app from a browser, i still want the browser to run in background, it will be helpful to others when they r downloading files from megaupload etc where the timer stops once u leave the app

Try OverSkreen. It will keep Flash running even with the screen turned off and while using other apps. The only drawback is that you need to keep it laying on top of everything. You can make the window tiny so it's less bothersome but it would still be better to find something that runs completely in the background.
This might be a stupid question but when I bought the phone yesterday I remembered seeing some pre loaded videos that looked pretty cool at showing off this wonderful screen but now I can't freakin find em.
Anyone know the location of the video I'm talking about?

Agreed, and would love to have one of the original videos that came with the phone. It showed off a bunch of landscapes but looked fantastic to really show off the display. When I first factory reset my phone (before rooting or anything) it wiped the files. I went to show the girlfriend and it's no longer there.
Presumably playing one of the Discovery Planet Earth videos in 1080p on Google Play would be able to show it off just as well. But I used it to play around with the built in video player that you could re-size etc.
I tried to share it elsewhere and it wouldn't let me, saying that it was a protected file. Even tried looking for it with a File Explorer and came up empty.
I must admit, those videos make the screen look GORGEOUS! Full HD 5.2 inch screen on minimum bezel...

they are protected files yes, locked to the individual devices. so once gone, they are gone forever.
speaking of those videos, did anybody find any demo videos that look as stunning as those on our screens?
I've deleted them when I got my phone, because I wanted more free space, but the other day I soft bricked my G2, so I had to restore everything and I got them videos back. I can upload them if you guys want.
again, they are protected and locked to individual devices, you can't play them anywhere else but your own phone.

Ohh, I see now. You can't even take screenshots during the video. Silly DRM. Then I uploaded 2 other ones, they are regular .mp4 videos, so you can play them on your phone or anything.
Video 1 - It's actually an extended version of the stock Europe video, there's no music though.
Video 2 - This one also looks really gorgeous.
In you tube search lg 4k demo, you found several demo videos from lg, download with tube mate in original video o 4k resolution and you get a lot of videos in excellent quality.
