I rooted the Fire and was able to continue watching Prime videos using the OTA Unroot program. But I finally decided to put another ROM on there to play with it - I chose AOKP B32, which is running nicely. I installed the Amazon Video app, but if force-closes each time, even when I turn off root.
I tried watching a Prime video from the browser, but that did not work either.
It is not a deal breaker for me, and I could always go back to the stock ROM from my backup. But I'm wondering if there is a way to do this.
Thanks.
I Love ICS On The Kindle Fire But I Bought My Kindle For Video Watching What Is My Best Option Besides Stock?
I think most of the roms out are capable of video playback if I'm not mistaken.
I'm loving the AOKP rom. Yet to try the other roms. Don't seem to catch my attention as much.
Hellfire CM9 ICS is the best in my opinion. Hardware acceleration works great so no problem with videos.
I haven't been able to get the Xfinity TV player working on Vicious JB. Does it work on any JB ROM?

In the play store, it lists that there is a problem with jellybean and the next update will fix it. It doesn't say when the update is coming.
It did not work on Xoom Team EOS JB rom as well. I had to come back to ICS.
I have audio but black screen. I believe because this app is flash based and JB does not support it.
I know some users complained about HBGO android app ins't working as well.
Not sure this is in the proper section but...
I have my galaxy and I have a Samsung television. Both are hooked up to the same network.
When I try to stream video to my television in 1080p, which is just the video size that I recorded using the camera app, the video comes in choppy. Lower resolution videos seem to play fine.
This feature worked flawlessly on ics, not entirely sure though as to why is choppy on Jelly bean.
Has anyone experienced this issue before? If so, what did you do to solve the problem.
Are there ports that need forwarding? It used to work, but now it doesn't. The only thing that has changed is the upgrade to Jelly bean. I help! :banghead::banghead:

Also interested in finding a solution to this. It happens between my phone and tv (samsung) and between my phone and the parents' home theater (sony).
I can play videos i have on my phone from other sources just fine, but videos recorded on the phone are very choppy...even 720p.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SIII on MetroPCS!

Glad to see I'm not the only use experiencing this. I haven't tried 720. When I was on ics, This feature was working just fine.
FreeGS3 2.0.0 Jelly Bean
Tried 720p, still a no go with that. Does Jelly bean use a different video encoder than ics?
It's hard to believe that only two people in the community are having this issue.
FreeGS3 2.0.0 Jelly Bean
Should be in Q&A

skipping video on allshare
Yeah same problem here. All my pre jelly bean update videos stream fine. Videis post jelly bean skip. When i try to play them on my samsung tv i get "preparing to play" message every couple of seconds and video freezes. It used to be a great feature but now its ruined. If i change to lower resolution in camera settings it seems to play fine but no 1080 anymore. Anyone know the the problem might be and mist importantly whats the fix? Thanks
Same prob. here Anyone ?
I have a Note 2, rooted on Macks ROM 2.5 and my HD movies on google play wont download or stream in HD. I havent seen much on this paticular problem so im kinda stumped. Its done it on stock rooted and actually stock unrooted as well. Is this just something with the Note 2?
