The hope is the end of November. The reality may be December.

Do you think it will add hdr10 in netflix and/or youtube?

I'm pretty sure HDR support in both Netflix and YouTube is up to Google and Netflix. They have "approved devices" in their support sections of their websites and the only Nokia phone on YouTube is the Siccorro 8 and Netflix has no Nokia phones listed as supported. I don't know if Nokia is responsible for requesting support or what but an update won't change anything about support with either service.

there is a cracked version that supports some HTC Thunderbolt roms/radios
i was able to download skype, audio support only, no video features yet but its ok, i can live with that
Bump. Any update on this? Has anyone been able to provide a cracked version of Skype speficially for the Tab?
So are there any uses for the front facing camera at this time?
Hard to believe that Skype has not yet come out with a video version for Android!
Skype with video does work with select android devices. I had it working with my old 7 inch Galaxy Tab but not with the new one. No one has been able to get it to work in Honeycomb yet.

He's right. I have Skype with videochat working on my Samsung Epic, doesn't work for my 10.1 though.
I desperately wish Skype (or something) would work. My GF lives in the Philippines and it'd be great to be able to walk around the house and whatnot video chatting from the GTab.
Use the google talk app. That has decent video chat capabilities.
Google talk has video support.

There is a modded version of the video skype apk for "other" devices around these forums somewhere. (search it). BUt it requires neon/vfp or somesuch not supported by the tegra2 cpu.
Skype and tegra2
check this youtube video, sorry i am new and doesn't allow me to post the link,
go to youtube and type in the search bar, skype for Tegra 2.
You will see a nvidia tablet running honeycomb 3.0 running a video conference, no idea where to get that apk, but obviously is around.
if somebody find it please pass around and send me a message
any news on this? I don't like google talk.
I tried the Skype on my galaxy tab 10.1 ...no video...

Download the Marshmallow OTA
copy it in the download folder of shield tv
and install stock Marshmallow ota with twrp recovery selecting it from download folder.
You don't need install twrp recovery you can boot it without install with the command fastboot boot your_twrp_recovery.img
when you have stock Marshmallow firmware, you can install the StockRestyle.
Wow, great work man. I was waiting for 6.0 to try you StockStyle ROM.

i wrote the differences between full Android and Android TV in the first post. under Note section.
On Nvidia forum,there are many,many posts about HDD and SD cards memory problems on 6.0.
Did you have sorted some Nvidia bugs,or you have just add your work on the top of their sw?
Beside of SD cards which can be used like internal memory,i dont see any point of Nvida 6.0.
Do you see some Nvidia improvements: like picture quality,speed, or something else which is crucial but was not in stock 5.1?
Does your Restyle version have something from Vulcan?
Thwnk you for your reply, Will this ROM have the castng hack as I have read marshmallow is stopping some app from casting ?
I wonder if this firmware support 4K resolution in Netflix and Youtube? As I understand, the full android firmware v2.2 don't support 4K resolution in Netflix and Youtube. Moreover, the wireless mode of the controller works? Because you mentioned the multi touch don't work in your note section in the first post.

I think that full Android 5.1 is the best firmware for SATV and the best firmware in the world with no exception. I have many many Android devices for my work, i'm sure on this.
But if you need a better stock firmware where you can download all apps directly from Google Play StockRestyle is for you.

Maybe i'm not clear, this is the stock firmware + stuff, you can do everything the stock can do + stuff.
If you have a 4k TV and a Netflix 4k account enabled, also on full Android 5.1 you can have 4k with the Netflix Android TV app. In general 4k h265 videos are working very very well with full Android 5.1
Thanks for posting this @zulu99!

Alternatives my friend, just alternatives, because i think that the user must be able to choose and not be a monkey in the hands of big companies.
I like when users are the real owner of their devices, and i hate when companies force users in a direction or in another at expense of all others companies and developers.
The Root is the first thing to be the real owner of your device, because i don't think you can be sure when another person have the keys of your house.
It's just a metaphor, but in the digital world, the users without root can be forced in the directions that big companies want.

Tidal Android App Update

As of today, it has been updated on the V30 to include support MQA. The "Master" option is under settings/streaming(wifi or cellular).
Don't seem to have the update available yet. Current available version is 2.3.2. What version is the update? I'm using a LG-H930DS.

2.3.3
I just got it this morning. Sprint V30+
Can anyone share the apk for 2.3.3?
2.3.4. just got released in the Netherlands. But I don't know what they did with it .. The noise levels are sky high. USB Audio Player PRO in MQA mode is way way way better ...
*update* ... It seems to have been pulled from the Play Store again. Not surprising if the noise levels are anything to go by ...
*update* 2.3.5. available for download

If you insist using this pad, try alternative apps with Netflix contents included. I'm not sure if it's good to share the app here so I give you the name of the app instead. (Hints: p*pc**rn times)
Around 200$, it's really tough to get a good display tablet. That's why I am stucked with this pad as well.?

sure i know about popcorn T
but if i have a subscription to netflix, seems unreasonable not to use it...
about the quality... well , before the MIUI update i could install from netflix website and it worked.!
i tried contacting netflix, they said android 8 support is in progress..seems weird, all other tablets with android 8 dont get netflix ?!
download this one. im using netflix on my mipad 4 and it works just fine. it even gets updated from play store. and as for the video quality on netflix, well....its good enough. not the sharpest quality, but its watchable.

Recently I just found this link that might help you a lot, it's a modded Netflix app which allows NON L1 device to play episodes in high quality. Never tried on Mi Pad 4. Good luck.
so i flashed a custom rom
it seems my device came unlocked, and i just had to flash twrp and rom
about netflix hd, how do i know what is the current quality im watching?
I am on xiaomi.eu MIUI 10, installed the apk and hid root from it with magisk and it is working quite good. Only thing, it doesn't stream on my Chromecast and anycast, even with libcrypto blocker magisk module installed.

Netflix has just dropped HDR support for LG G6

Hi,
I've just noticed that after latest application update Netflix has dropped the HDR video support on LG G6.
Looks like it's broken in Android 9.0 update.
Some time ago I thought it's working well, after I compared the video quality with Sony Xperia XZ2. At the first sight it seemed to be working OK, but it was not.
So, sad news, actually, taking also into account we don't know about any other system update being prepared for the LG G6.
Hi, I didn't update G6 to Pie but recently I noticed that HDR option disappeared on netfix and I digged out that the reason is the update of the application itself. Returning to the older version from October 2019 solves my problem HDR and HQ image. I will also add that the latest version of the application indicated that the material can be played max in SD quality (?!). In the older version there are no such annotations but I think the image quality is much better.
With latest, updated Pie release (30b) the HDR in Netflix is back in place.
