Hi, I recently installed Lineage OS 17.1 and Magisk and was eventually able to install the latest Netflix apk, which worked after resetting the device.
It's all fine, except I can't get it in full HD. Even when I download something, with HD downloads ticked, it's still a much lower quality than what I get on my android phone. A 45 minute episode will be around 150MB instead of 650MB.
Any thoughts?

I’ve read about the wifi issues but was wondering is anyone may have some input. My Ouya is nearly worthless at holding a wifi signal and at local file access. The strange thing is that is seems to mostly effect the download speeds. I side-loaded speed test and can get between 2 to 3.5mbps upload speed most of the time. I am stuck getting .5 to .75mbps down. I realize this is internet speeds but the local network is even slower. It is so slow I am unable to stream off a local network location. I have not had similar problems with other android devices and my 3 year old Motorola phone can get better download speeds off wifi.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks

You're not alone. I get the same thing. After a factory reset, the speed pushes to ~1Mbps down, ~4Mbps up, which is still pathetic. There's threads about this problem all over the place.
Same here. Maybe a limit in some config?

Being too lazy to try at the moment and not having the time to attempt it, Has anyone with this issue seen if it goes away with CM10?
If i can get some time this weekend i can try to see if i can boot CM10 non destructively and see if the wifi issues still exist.
When i have some spare time i will skimm sources and configs see what the reason might be. Maybe even kernel related?

Personally I think it is an artifact of using a OS written for mobile devices and power saving on an always on device. I am thinking drivers and or configs are the culprit. In the small amount of looking I did i see WiFi issues are common with JB in general. I have seen a couple threads about similar problems and fixes but they have mixed results at best.
It looks like there are more recent versions of the stock drivers for the BCM4330 chip available
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/hardware/broadcom/wlan/+/master/bcmdhd/firmware/bcm4330
From looking at the bin files from the most recent Ouya OTA it looks like the version there is Version: 5.90.195.89 CRC: 2303bcd6
then again.... i may be reading that wrong, that has happened more then once.

After looking some more i think the next appropriate step would be to upgrade the drivers to the newest version to see if that helps. I cant find a reference to the version in the OTA anywhere but a few snippets form pastebin about the RasPi running jellybean.
I've got a gaggle of kids to watch tonight but may get time to play with it tomorrow. If anyone else wants to take the plunge as well please post how ti goes.
Thanks

I updated the drivers. The good news is the system still booted and worked fine. The bad news is that is did not seem to make any difference in the wifi signal strength or speed.
EDIT:
More followup. I put iwconfig on the Ouya and messed with the txpower setting. It has zero effect. it said 1496 once and it said 1 once but the wifi strength never really moved and the down and up speeds were still poor.
The Nexus 7 (2013) can now do full screen casting through Chromecast - I've done it, but the delay between the device and the Chromecast is pretty bad. There is a good 4-6 second delay between the two. It starts off perfect, but quickly slows down. Just wondering how anyone else's experiences are.
I get about 1/3 second lag. What's your router, any g devices?
Mine won't work, I just get FC of google play services (I read some others have the same issue, it's a cleanly installed 4.4.4 stock ROM), not a big deal, I'm not the type who needs to cast the screen from my device anyway, but it's nice to know it's there, it's a beta, so hopefully it will be addressed.
Mine works flawlessly. Little to no latency. I can play Clash of Clans on my TV :good::laugh:
Mine is also working perfectly, pretty cool
I use a Cisco ValetPlus (Wireless N). It's definitely not the router - but I haven't used my Chromecast in months prior to this, maybe it needs an update to enable WiFi Direct or whatever the new protocol is.
If it doesn't work at all, try rebooting the chromecast. Long lag might be interference, change router channel?

Yeah, tried hard rebooting, as well as resetting the chromecast, as well as my device, cleared cache, etc, it's simply broken for me.
If it helps:
Chromecast firmware 17250
Chromecast app version 1.7.4, also worked on 1.5.5
Google play services 5.0.84(1259630-036)

I have exactly the same versions. Weird.
Thanks for taking the time to post that though.
My cast screen works perfectly, depending on app in use I might see instances where the audio goes out of sync for a half a second, but virtually no lag whatsoever.
For those keeping score, I think my issue is due to viper4android, casting works fine in android L for me (where there is no viper installed), and based on the logcat in 4.4.4 when it fails it looks like the audio portion is where it crashes, this weekend I will copy my 4.4.4 rom to a secondary slot and remove viper to confirm.
Looks like I may be on the right track: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54073200&postcount=14279

Hi there all!
Since the update on the MIUI 10.3.1.0 PEEMIXM my GPS isn't working at all. Every GPS fix app I tried so far simply doesn't see any satellites in the sky. Google maps not working. It never finds any GPS whatsoever.
Anyone has similar issues?
Googled a bit but not with much info. I tried to reflash through OTA the last build without any different effect. Remove all updates from Google maps also did not solve the problem.
Any ideas?
Best regards,
David
PS: Device is a Mi Mix 3 Global version.
Something could've gotten borked in the vendor image. I would try a full fastboot. Just don't wipe data.
Sent from my Mi MIX 3 using Tapatalk
A full fastboot? Do I need a unlocked bootloader or something? Basically just did nothing with the Mix 3 until now, just OTA updates.
Need some more information on that full fastboot method...
I mean, I did flash other phones in the past, I just need some advice on how to start with the Mix 3.
Maybe a stupid question, but are you sure that GPS is turned on?

Yes, in the overall menu at the top (what's it called btw?) the GPS Icon is marked as blue, so "on". And in the settings it's on high precision (GPS+wifi+network).
But you're right, it behaves like it isn't on at all.
I don't have any issues with my Chinese device running Global Stable 10.3.1.0. I use Microsoft's Here maps though, which works perfectly fine.

Drove around a bit with GPS Test, it never finds anything.
Is there a easy way of rollbacking to the last version? Wanna check if the issue is still there on another version... Without voiding the guarantee.

You'd need to unlock bootloader to go back as it's got roll back protection I think
Try changing the region in settings. I faced similar issue before. It might help.

I'm not sure what happened.. After receiving the latest firmware ATCH via OTA, then an update on the game pokemon go to version 0.171.2 pokemon go will just freeze after launching the game betweeb 5 to 20 seconds.
It is really annoying. The game still functions fine on my old phone the samsung note 8.
Anyone else having this problem? I'm not sure if it's the pokemon update that created this problem or the firmware update.
Tried clearing data on the pokemon app, re-installing the game, and tried installing it from samsung app store, with phone restarts in between.. Problem still persist.
Tried installing older version of the game by downloading the apk from the net but still the same.

It's a Niantic issue and seems to affect just the S20 range for Samsung, have seen other brands as well mentioned but since 0.170.0 and the three subsequent updates it just freezes seconds after you log on, i still have an S8+ and even an older S7 Flat and both versions, Google Play and Samsung Store, work fine on them, it's just my S20 Ultra.
Until they force updated it yesterday it was fine to just use version 0.169.3 but that's no use now, plenty of Forum posts about it on popular fan site 'The Silph Road', just have to wait for Niantic to get the finger out.

You are lucky that you didn't update your phone and I recommend you not to upgrade because It has become laggy and almost every app is freezing while using and battery drain is horrible even have completed 4 charging cycle my SOT has reduced to 4 hours which it was 5.30 hours.
no issues at all after updating to 11

If you were on beta program, get out of it and try again.

If you are so desperate, opt for beta and within few hours you may able to update.
Why not just downlaod direct form Google, if you really want it...
Full Factory Image: https://developers.google.com/android/images

I never do clean reinstall after a major release unless it's necessary. It takes so long. Re-insalling all my apps, reloading all my data (music, videos) restoring texts and some app data, configuring apps, logging into accounts, etc. It takes hours.
I didn't realize you could side load the OTA without having to do a wipe. I'll probably try that. Thanks.
You will lose Call Screening options.. If you updated
Just sideload it or flash the ota with twrp.
That being said you aren't missing much staying on 10 for a while

Me too, went back to 10 after just an hour, too many issues, particularly with apps that wont work on it...like my fave backup app, meaning i would have had to reinstall all my apps and reset them all up from scratch....
