Hi guys..anyone of you uses colorcross vr glasses? I want a good review of the product.
Also if anyone of you uses google cardboard on your note2, your reviews are the most welcome.

It's very uncomfortable to use for a long time but the lenses are big enough to give a great FOV compared to the google cardboard. Also, depending on the phone's screen size you can see the side walls of the hmd.

Has anyone here thought of or purchased red zone live through the direct tv app in play store and successfully used an mhl adapter to stream in hd anywhere you take your device?
Seems like a good idea to use anywhere you go on Sunday for games, but it seems too easy..... Plus will the quality hold up as high definition?

I'm sure some of you know about the Xbox Smart glass app just being released to control your Xbox dashboard with your Note 2, but if your in the gallery looking at pictures and click change player at the top then it automatically displays on your TV using your Xbox! Works with videos, pictures, and music. You must go to console settings and turn on "Smart glass apps", and "Play to" on your Xbox for this to work. Let me know how you guys are liking it.

Makes me wonder why they didn't save this to have it exclusive on Windows Phone?

Did anyone figure out how to play Netflix on tv in full screen. On my tv looks shrunk to 4x3 instead 16x9. Is there any solution?

There is an app that will force landscape or portrait mode, I think that may be what you're looking for. It'll force the device to rotate, even though the dock holds it upright, thus using the full width of the HDTV.
Thanks for reply. My problem is that Netflix plays fine on note, but when connected to smart dock only Netflix main menu comes up in full screen. When playing video picture is shrunk horizontally. Other players and youtube play perfectly in full screen. It must be error in app itself.

I don't know if this will help but here is the link to the app, I believe, muqali is talking about. It's a paid app but has a free trail. Check it out. It might help..great app for TW ROMS btw.

Thanks everyone. I read some user opinions about Netflix app in Play Store and looks like I'm not the only one with that problem. It appears that problem is within Netflix app. Forcing rotation doesn't change anything. I need to wait for netflix to fix that.

Came across this after trying out the app "Streamster" that app streams from Justin.TV and needs flash to work..no full screen ads showed..ugly interface ..but it worked.
Fast forward to this new app I found "MovieTube" it doesn't actually host any movies ..but it does link you to them to watch and stream from....YouTube works great and quality on most are good and you get full screen and no ads.
With the limited storage on the Nexus this is a nice option. Again the app is called "MovieTube" and its free and on the play store by the Dev name of "Screen&Shout"

Thanks for heads up. I'm assuming that it's legal too as it's on Play store?

The app doesn't actually host any movies it just redirects you to users on YouTube who uploaded it.

Here are a few YouTube alternatives which you can look for,
Vube, DailyMotion, Vimeo etc.

I use adfree for Android and I don't get ads on the YouTube app. And there should be a setting inside the app to play only sd.

PV star is a great YouTube alt. You. Shut the screen off and just listen if you want.

Pvstar is nice. Just downloaded it. Works great!
I´m quite mad at Google because of still not having activated the option of using a 1080p resolution in Youtube. I mean, come on, I bought both recent flagship devices which can handle 1080p video playback without any problems ( Nexus 5 & Nexus 7 2013 ).
I wanted to buy the latest Viral Pro App but for whatever reasons, the developer also decided to stick to max. 720p. What is wrong with this world ? Is there a better app available in order to watch Full HD material on these devices ?

I could understand it not being there if your screen isn't 1920x1080. But if you have a FHD screen than it should show up. Assuming the video allows it.

I have a nexus 5, nexus 7(2013), and a kindle fire hdx 7.
It doesn't show up on all of them.
(And yes I have the latest version of YouTube.)

This will block youtube ads and other ads (app, website) but will not provide any additional youtube options.
