I got my new SammyS3 10 days ago and had absolutely NO problems downloading Videos..
Two days ago I rrceived a Notification...update available.!
So I updated and since then NO MORE downloads possible.!!
Adobe Flash Player changed from Flash Player to " Adobe Flash Settings" on my homescreen.!!
I have also noticed very strange behaviour generally on the Device...unstable Screen Control.!!
My Notificstions have gone away and I get NO more Notifications about mails SMS etc...!!!
I have solved the Problem of Downloading ...Using Firefox. and VideoDownloaderPro v.1.02 from. Haibus.Co....!
Its very good with a 4 + Star Rating.....a couple of Bugs BUT nothing serious..!!
Better than nothing at ALL...!!
I am in NO way associated with this Downloader only trying to Post a work around for the MISERY Adobe and Google have left us in.!!
I have only had my Sammy S3 for two weeks and am NOT really. very impressed..!
Android.....unless it gets Dev's like IOS will remain under FULL control from Google and they will dicate what we can and cannot do with our own Devices...!!!
I bought my Device here in Germany WITHOUT any Branding, Contract or SIMlock
Hope my Solution Helps you m8y..
Cheers AJP
EDIT....by the way it took me 17 mins to Type and Post this because my Screen keeps jumping all over the place really driving me Nuts all these typo errors...and unstabillity !!!

Do as i recommended.!
You need these Tools
1....Firefox Browser....v.15.01
2....Adobe Flash Player v.11.1..115.17
2....Video Downloader Pro v.1.02 (or use the Free to Test first.)
3....MX Player and MX Codec ARMv.7
If you already downloaded the Flash Player, it shows on your HomeScreen as Adobe Flash Settings just leave it as is because its Ticked to receive Updates
and IF Adobe gives us a Fix it will Auto Update your version without needing to get a new one.!!!
To WATCH Videos ON your Device go to the Site using your Internet Stock Browser and PLAY the Video.!!!
To DOWNLOAD Videos ONTO your Device use Firefox Browser and VideoDownloadePro and DOWNLOAD..!!!
SET the MX Player as your Default Player its the Best one out there.!!!
I can Watch and Download any video with this work-around... it works 100%
Hope you understand this work-around.!

lol not just that. in all seriousness though, my number one test is the obvious, youtube (in the browser ofcourse). I dont get any messages saying i need a flash plugin or need to update my flash, however the video never plays either. Tried on both 3g and Wifi. no dice. Its very low on my priorty list and froyo will take care of it so its not a biggie.

Anyone else having trouble installing this?
when i look at the market i dont find it, and when i scan the QR code from skyfire homepage i dont find it either.
Also tried downloading the APK file from my phone but it fails telling me that the format is not supported in my phone.
Currently using a unrooted mini pro with SE default stock rom due im afraid of the stability of the aviable roms. (Absoulutly need a working and non-rebooting phone for my work.)
hi here is the apk cheers chris

You can watch live streaming !!!!!
Hi,
thanks for the app !
With this app, you can watch live streaming !
Yestersay, i have saw San Antonio - Memphis on streaming with my phone ( in 3G ) !
If you want to test :
go on myp2p or http://www.rojadirecta.es/.
For example, go to : http://www.rojadirecta.es/goto/play....gd/BZzvNC&autostart=true&stretching=exactfit.
On this page, click on Video ( ( down bar of skyfire ) the page may is white as if it's not loaded ).
Wait, and click on video who appears.
Watch your match
You may need video licence for that work, but the licence is free for 3 day.
It's time to test !
PS: If skyfire work only for google reach; click on icon half android / half screen of computer ( at right of the icon who open all tab ) and choose android.
Try again
Sorry for my bad English !
Hum, I tried this yesterday but gave up cuz on my mini pro the favorites button caused a FC, but since it appears to be able to playback video, I might just have to make this one my default browser

To have the favourites button work you need the stock browser (the stock one in the custom roms work as well) installed as well as it uses that somehow for your favourites and history etc

Ah ok, I see my deleting of the default browser (had no use for it) came back to bite me in the ass, cheers for the clear up
EDIT: Yeah, readding the default browser fixed it, cheers fellas.
Any way to turn the screen off during playback? I use some flash streaming audio, so dont need to see anything, and it eats battery. Also has anyone worked out how to tick the parental lock option in bbc iplayer?

In the default video player when ever i play the video ( in vertical holding)in generally the video should align to the middle but mostly of the time(8 out of 10 times) it is aligning to the top .
I started observing this after the recent official update ,is there any solution for this ?, Does any one of you have the same issue ?
Try clearing the application data of the video player or download a better video player: MX Player.

MX Player is the best use it
Using an alternative video player isn't solving the issue though is it? MX Player solves the problem but doesn't look as polished as the stock player.
I've had the same problem as the OP since flashing different ROMs, it certainly wasn't a problem before. There is also the same problem with YouTube in portrait mode.
Have tried clearing data and factory reset but to no avail.
It is frustrating to say the least...

I also had the same problem. And I belIeve the camera app also had the same problem...I did fix the problem....flash the fastest Rom again and problem solved.
Have tried the latest stock ROM this morning and issue still present. It is however only present on AVI files, not mp4.

Yes use MX Player. Ive been using it myself and had no problems with it.
Most films I download are either .AVI or .FLV and plays files just fine.
I've been using Stock Video Player and .AVI works just fine. I wonder why it's not working on your phone
Let me guess you use es file explorer?? If so clear the data of es then try it again and it will work.

I'm not too sure about the format. Even when I converted the.avi file to .mp4 which S3 should be able to play, it still doesn't. Is this due to my CF-Root?

Stupid question maybe, but have you tried many different videos? Because I too have encountered some files I've downloaded that just would not play while others (from the same download) play fine.

Something wrong with your video files is my guess ..If you dont know the format how do you know SGS3 can play this unknown format ??
You can try backing up data and factory resetting .
You could also try formatting the sd card and starting again .
Or you could update your firmware .
Or return to service centre .

Just a quick question to see which music player app gets the thumbs up :good:
I'm currenty using n7Player and it's ok but i have to manually scan when i've added new albums.
I'm not a fan of the stock player as the windget has limitations.
Google it and you'll find plenty comparisons and reviews
did that @ Glebun, so i just thought i'd post it in the Q&A to see what others thought.
I agree with you, stock player is trashy. I prefer winamp.

There is a music player review in Themes and Apps probably but not certain by Nick Fury .

There's no better player out there than PowerAMP (pay version). Bought it at full price and it's one of the best apps I've every bought.
stock player "Music Player"
I prefer the google "play music" app. Its easier to use plus the widget is better.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Poweramp....no questions, the best by a long way
Poweramp user here too.
i use the stock music player with AC!D mod. Really good for me.
Best player
I use apollo or stock music player.
Stock player by me
It is enough
Just saying the name of the player has no value or usefulness, at least try to explain why you prefer it.
R: [Q] Which music player are you using for s3?
Double twist.
(@ glebun: y u keep spamming bro? XD)
I use it cuz its got a very fluid interface plus it downloads album images (i guess most do) but it reminds me of the ios player simplicity. Very good, i like it more than others try it.

To be fair to everyone i did only ask which player people were using. not for an explanation as to why they're using it. just wanted a general idea of what app folk are using out there for music. Thinking of giving Poweramp a go!
Thanks for the replies.
