Hi, I just found this great tweak for jailbroken phones, that modifies video playback speed in any app: cydia.saurik.com/package/com.harrisonapps.fastforward/
I was wondering, is there a similar app for rooted android phones that does the same thing? Basically an app that will cause videos in certain apps be played back faster than normal? Thanks.

Hi Leo Users,
I am considering buying this phone but I need to see how well it handles in android.
Can someone post a video using one of the most recent and more working roms? I want to get an idea of how well it goes.
1. What is currently not supported on the leo?
2. Does all of its ram get ported in android or does it use only a smaller part?
3. What about the camera? Is the camera app using the camera to it's full potential?
4. Video playback? Does it play hd?
5. Is a nand installation of android possible?
Thank you!

1. For each Android distro out there it says in its own topic what's working and what it is not. I know it can't record video in HD 720p.
2. As far as I know, Android uses all available RAM.
3. There are still some issues with the camera, mostly because improvements are still made to native Android phones. I doubt you will use the camera like that. I don't consider it a low point.
4. Video playback is really good and it also plays HD. I tried with some Youtube HD videos and they were ok. Haven't tried with a computer encoded fully fledged HD. I know that there are video players on Android Market that can play all Xvid encoded videos out of the box. Just copy it on the SD card and you are set.
5. At this moment, NAND installation is not possible. There were some major improvements done and I think it will be possible to be functional at some point.
6. I would add the fact that HD2 can run a lot of Android flavors because it can launch them from within WinMobile. This is something you can never achieve with a native Android phone.
7. Battery drainage is still heavy. Every day something new is discovered on how to improve battery life.
I see you own a Wildfire. HD2 is a lot better that it. I read it on a Romanian tech blog, an editor made a comparison between native Android phones and HD2.
Hey all, I recently read something about an ipad app that lets the ipad control the iphone's camera over wifi... there's a video with the process :

is there something like this for android that would work with the nc?
Hi Guys,
I got a Chinese tablet that's got pretty low specs (Quad processor, 1gb Ram, 2gb storage, Android 6.0) and I am trying to use a screen recorder app to record some video from the tablet.
But I've tried tons of video recording apps, all with the same result. After the recording starts and the recorder app goes in the background, it closes immediately, thus the video recording stops.
I've not been able to find an app or a way to keep the recording going when I switch apps, because the background apps get killed immediately after I switch to another. I'm assuming this is likely because of the slow specs, but could there be any way to prevent the killing of the background apps or forcing an app to stay open? Or is there an app you can recommend that will stay actively recording no matter what?
Thanks for the help!
Hey I'm having issues with my LG V30+ From Sprint. I'm having issues with recording a video that lasts more than 11:53. I'm trying to record a full softball game but the recording cuts off at 11:53 and creates a whole new video. How can I make it just one long video without having it be a Time Lapse video? Thanks for the help!

Is it "11:53" limit -- or does it just happen to coincidentally be 11:53 due to your high resolution settings? In reality you are running up against the Android 4GB video recording limit? Like if you set it for 720p or more efficient codec you could record more than 11:53? (see post below)
I didn't even know about this 4GB limit until the other day... How do people record concerts then?
Recording with stock app limit on 4 GB

Hi! I'm getting a V30 this week and I also plan to do a lot of video recording with it so this is of interest to me. I did bump into the 4GB file size limit on Android as well when recording long videos with other Android phones such as my V10. First I thought it would have something to do with FAT32 storage format which has a 4GB file size limit but after doing some research it seems it's not related to FAT32 but a (arbitrary?) limitation of the Android OS. However, some Android phone makers seem to be able to tweak the OS in such a way that you can record beyond 4GB, for instance Sony (tested it on a Xperia XZ).
Regarding the V30, I just happened to come across this recent thread which is talking about a new OS update for the V30/V30+ bringing features of the newer V30 ThinQ to the older V30(+): https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/oreo-update-ai-camera-t3760379. Now the interesting thing is that one of the new features listed says "Google Drive supports downloading files larger than 4GB". It could be nothing after all but maybe, just maybe, this also means that Android on the V30 now generally copes with files larger than 4GB and that this will also affect recording video with the native app.
Other than that, a few thoughts how to tackle the problem:
- Judging from my experience with the V10, the native camera app of the V30 should have the option to change the recording bitrate. If you can live with a lower bitrate for your video, you can squeeze out a couple of more minutes recording time. On the V10 I was able to record over 1 hour in 720p resolution with the low bitrate setting.
- I don't have the V30 yet, but maybe the native app (or some 3rd party recording app) has the option to record with the newer H.265/HEVC video codec instead of the (still) common H.264. The superior compression of H.265 will allow you to have a much smaller file size while keeping the quality, ergo you will be able to record a lot longer even if the 4GB file size limit continues to exist.
- OpenCamera is only one of the 3rd party camera apps that support auto-restart: If you find the audio to be terrible you could also check out "Cinema FV-5" or "Filmic Pro".
That being said, I'm glad to hear that on the V30, the native app at least seems to automatically restart after reaching the file size limit. On the V10, you have to manually push the record button again which is annoying when you just want to place the camera somewhere and keep it running while you have other things to do.
Still, let's hope Android get rid of this limitation asap!

Hi there,
The stock camera app is the only one that supports 60fps in video recording.
However, the 5 min time limit in 4K is kind of annoying and I was wondering if there was a mod of the stock app that bypasses this limit.
I haven't rooted my device and don't intend to do so.
Thanks!
I would also like to know...
