BBC iPlayer or tvcatchup? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running paranoid ROM on my 4g, but can't seem to get neither of this apps to work, anyone got this going yet? I've only been able to get BBC iPlayer to work once, but I haven't been able to replicate it.

Hi I am from TVCatchup I think the Paranoid ROM mirrors the Android 4.2. OS and is not yet confirmed on TVCatchup as we didn't set the version numbers. We will be sorting this out this weekend, but we are also making updates to the APK whilst we have the chance. Hopefully we should be releasing it on Tuesday or Wednesday after testing, but it is already a day late so that might be pushed back a bit, but it will be sometime this week.

I get sound but no picture on all ICS/JB ROMS except ones based on "That ROM" with both of these apps.
So I guess its a driver/kernel issue
Edit: with TVcatchup I get error 0x8000000000

He actually stated that for alpha 3.0 version so it doesn't mean anything. It's just there to prevent people from telling him, "HEY MANNN DO U NOE ICE CREAM SAND WICH IS OUT????!1 WORK ON IT PLZ"

easiest way to keep up-to-date on CM development for TP
I'mm running it now, upgrade went fine and everything seems to be running ok.
trying this on my tablet and the xron on my wifes.. curious to see how it ends up.. LOL
---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 PM ----------
had 2 random reboots when i was trying to adjust the wifi.. odd
I'd be willing to bet ICS will come eventually (keyword there though, eventually). The hardest part of getting many ports running is often the camera and GPS, and obviously nobody with touchpads cares about either of those. Considering how well CM7 runs I think we'll see ICS in a few months
as you wait i believe most are enjoying the amazing work that is being put out both the update on the 3.5 -- and xron -- and even newly made miui is gettin raves.. so have fun waiting
#imjustsaying
solid 3.5 and xron work =)
So far, amazing. 3d performance is improved (again), and wifi seems fine. No reason not to upgrade if you ask me...

Had 3.0 alpha and grand theft auto was kinda choppy, updated to 3.5 and WOW it plays so smooth. Big thanks to all who work on this.

I got it running with no problems so far.
Is anyone else getting intermittent wifi disconnects? Only way to fix it is to physically turn off wifi and turn it back on...anyone?

I have a major problem with the update and suggest not using it until the problem is resolved.
I installed first on my 32gb which was running 3.0. After the install I noticed a message that my sd card was unmounted. I tried various fixes with no success. In web os, all files show up fine. In CM7, nothing shows up when I try to connect the TP to my computer.
Being rather foolish, I decided to try the upgrade on my 16gb to see if there was a quirk on my 32 gb or if there was a problem with 3.5 upgrade.
Sadly, I now have two TPs saying the sd card is not mounted.

Have any us user received the ICS update?

i'm a us version user,and i doesnt received the update notice, im not sure if it is because that i have tried the mexico version before.
nope not yet either and im in the east coast!!
Nothing for Canada just yet
Nothing from MA
No update from MA, is this a paper launch ?

what about the chinese version ?
The installation went well for the most part, but when I turned it off to test the startup time shortly afterward it stalled out. I had to reset it. Since then, there have been no issues. Everything seems a little faster. Menus are responsive, and there seems to be a lot less lag in general. I haven't played much with the small apps, but they seem to work well enough. The desktop folders are a nice feature. I was especially looking forward to swiping away notifications to close them, and I have not been disappointed. The feature works perfectly. I think all the little features plus the improved performance make this update a success. +1 to Sony on the upgrade. Next time, a little more communication on release timelines would be preferred. Hopefully the recent re-org will change things for the better.

I seem to remember at least one Nexus 7 review said this slowness was a 'feature' - i.e., to prevent accidental rotations...as such it might be intentional.
My screen rotation animation starts after one second and completes a half second later. If the virtual keyboard is up, it takes an extra second for the rotation animation to start. I haven't experienced any 4 to 6 second delays but it could conceivably be slower with more resource-intensive apps.
Awesome update, running stock unrooted, web browsing is much, much better, its actually enjoyable now. I havent tried chrome yet, was only using stock browser with default settings with flash set to always on.
Project butter makes things run smoothly.
Google now is pretty awesome.
Thats all i noticed for now.
Great job asus!!
Update went well. Chrome running great. Weather Widget stuck on Centigrade. Scrolling is nice and smooth. No complaints after an hour of use.

i m afraid i ll disagree
after 3-4 reboots..
performance IS better though dont excpect to see the butterness of a galaxy Nexus or Nexus 7. Stock launcer is by far improved, faster smoother and very very responsive. I noticed some lag when scrolling on portrait mode but it was the moving wallpaper...disable it and itll be ok.
screen rotation IS noticable faster
opening apps IS faster though i noticed a small hickup when opening some of the times
Google now is working lovely, fast and loud. When in portrait at lock screen the google now icon dissapears, u have to landscape it to appear and use..:silly:
Chrome is a bit faster...not much, but it is better at least in responsivness...no ANR till now. Stock browser still better..
Nova launcher wich i use needs a clear cache/data and then its absolutely amazing
stock gallery takes about 3-4 sec everytime to open ..thats bad
Youtube app seems faster overall to me..
Maps just the same..
seems to me Asus did a good job here...just good

When I checked it this morning (3 different times!) all I get is this message-
"Failed to download file.
Please wait for a moment and try again."
So the update is out, but it's not downloading yet for me. Maybe a lot of people are all trying to download at the same time? Who knows. I'm completely stock in case anyone is wondering. Anyone else seeing that message?

I got the same message and even rebooted a couple times with no success. Then i gave up and left it alone, and like 10 mins later my prime notified me that it dowmloaded the update and is ready to install. So i guess anyone with a greyed out check update box, it will eventually download on its own.

*UPDATE*
Finally began downloading the update after the 5th time of rebooting and then checking for update. The install took roughly 18-20 minutes. No issues with the install so far. Slightly laggy, but that's normal until a few reboots after firmware update (every firmware update has been like that for me so I'm pretty sure it's normal).
So far so good

So far the update seems to be very stable and fast. Been working with it for about an hour now and so far no problems at all.
My Wifi is still slow but thats expected with the metal cover.. Thats about the worse thing I can say at the moment..
Has anyone tried replacing the primes back cover with one from a TF300? Isn't it the exact same size??
ASUS did a fantastic job (so far..) in my opinion..

I'll be holding off updating until a root method is discovered, the reason being that I'd like to restore my user apps with Titanium Backup, as I'll be resetting to factory defaults right after the upgrade. Not taking the chance of crap performance manifesting itself later after my god-awful experience with ICS. If by the end of October I'm still dissatisfied with my Prime, I'll be selling it at a loss and saying adiós to ASUS.
I got the download, but when I try to install it and rebooted it said it failed. Went to check update again, it's says there's no update.
Anybody else with the same issue?

There are a lot of positive feedback on this firmware which may bring the Prim functioning as it should be. I am glad to hear that. There is still no thing in Australia now. However I believe that it will be here soon.

You're not the only one. I've been searching daily and trying different things to see if I could get it to kick in. I tried tricks that people have posted but I'm just like you.

Bump.
I have the Galaxy S3 T999, stock, not rooted, Jelly Bean 4.3, Google search 3.5+, Play services 5+. Audio History is on. I've tried searching OK Google Everywhere and Unleash the Google. I factory reset my phone, and didn't use any data restore programs at all. Play services auto updated, and I updated my Google Search app. STILL no luck. Re-searched the OK Google Everywhere and the Unleash the Google phrases.
Nothing doing. Can somebody help us figure out what's going on?
And here I thought it was just me... I'm glad I found this thread. I was able to get it to work on my stock N7 with 4.4 but can't on my stock Galaxy S4 or stock Galaxy Tab 2 7", both running 4.3...
It's pretty disappointing. I checked a friend's phone who has the same exact phone and software as me but she has the OK Google everywhere option. Oh well I'll sit here and cry with you guys until something magically changes.
Fortunately for me I FINALLY have this activated. Turns out that the problem for me personally was due to the ROM that I am running. I'm rooted so if anyone here is I would advise you to check out this link because it fixed it for me right way. Good luck everyone.

I've just tried it myself, switching back to stock 4.3 after archiport 4.4 beta was getting unstable. Unfortunately this method didn't work, and I think it's a 4.3 thing. Bugger that, as if really use this feature, but am not quite prepared to get a new phone yet. There is an xposed module to get this kinda working, but again just for 4.4.

My wife is on stock 4.3 and she doesn't have the feature either so you could be right. I wish you the best of luck because I truly feel your frustration.

Make sure you have the right TWRP. The camera won't work. You may download GApps, which supports Android 6.01, before you decide to install CM13.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO CLEAN FLASH THE CM13.ZIP.
You may need backup your data with 3rd party app, e.g. Titanium Backup Pro, to be able to restore to CM13. TWRP may not work as you would expect.

I don't recall anyone reporting that issue. There are numerous versions of cm13 out there. By more than one dev. My experience was better with some of the earlier builds. Feel free to state what app you are using for video and such as it will help. Development has someone slowed because CM may be close to a release themselves. Noone really knows at this point. Some recent changes in CM have caused me to stop trying. Probably another reason the rest have slowed. Feel free to try the camera fix and report back. Again its buggy but does work.

I just flashed the CM 13 Dec. 25 by SHM. The camera app i flashed works well. i took like 10 photos and the all saved. I think i will uninstall the camera app the came with the rom. The video issue normally happens with facebook videos, youtube videos, instagram videos and snapchat videos but it seems to be working now. The snapchat camera does work but it takes about 45 seconds for it to come up after switching between front and rear camera and freezes often. With the instagram camera, it worked the first time i opened the app but wont work after. After about 5 minutes of messing with everything, Every app including the one i flashed says that they cannot connect to the camera and that i should restart the device. hope this helps

Yep. Reboot solves it until it hangs again. It has been tested for a month or so now. Some had better results than others. The camera it flashes works decently. Its just a temp fix into kernel is patched.
Which dev do you think has the best build? and which build is it?
For those wondering about using large SD Cards with MM, if the Mate will read and write to it, it should work fine. I am using this card http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-200GB-Micro-SDSDQUAN-200G-G4A/dp/B00V62XBQQ and it seems to be working just fine so far. Just got it and moved my stuff over to it today. Its a 200GB card but when formatted by the phone it shows as 183GB which is more than enough for me. I got it when they were running a special on them for $80. Right now they have gone up some as of 12/29 at 11:06 pm the card is selling for $109 with free shipping. For those that want to transfer a lot of music and videos to your phone this might be the card for you.

There are only two developers that I Have found that are make MM ROMS for the Mate two and if you search for them on AFH you can find them. They are Dargu and SHM. I use the builds that Dargu makes because they seem to be updated more Regularly, but you might like the builds made by SHM. I would suggest trying each one and seeing which one you like best and sticking with it or just flash whichever one is the newest at the time. Its basically a personal choice that each person has to make.

Ohhh okay. i get you. Just one last thing. I see in another thread that you modding the kernel to extend battery life. Is there a zip that i can flash to get this? like the modded rom or something?
Any new Supersu zips for this ?

Best to stick with root built into the ROM for now.
THANKS!
Sure appreciate the work on a MM rom. 10 years ago, I would have been right in the thick of it, flashing every
new one that came along, but, anymore these things are "just a phone" for me. I've been lucky with mine.
4.3 was stable, 5.1 is stable. The only issue I've had, is that on reboot, the launcher (nova) won't stick, but,
I don't turn it off or reboot but once in a blue moon.
I doubt if we'll see an official MM for the Mate2, but if a really stable one comes along, who knows, I might
give it a try. The camera MUST work for me, since I use it pretty much daily (work images for engineers).
