Hi to all. I have problem with xbmc and my nexus 7 2013. After update of kitkat it seems that the only working versions are the latest night builds of gotham xbmc. But almost all addons are incompatible or videos not working. Is there any pached froyo or gotham version working with addons?

I am going to try to find a working version tonight. I can tell you about Gotham that when it says things are broken in repository, its not really true. The addons just have not been updated to reflect gotham, but when it asks you if you want to disable the addon, just say no, most will still work. Use the xbmchub wizard to make things easier.

if addon is not compatible i can't even install it! Broken is different case.With last updates in nightly builds almost all addons are incompatible, not broken. When you make your tests too please inform me.
xbmchub gives the same or worst results...
I have a Gotham xbmc version that works on my nexus 5. Nightly yes, but it stool works OK. It is named xbmc-2013114-nexus5-master-armeabi-v7a
Hope this helps
That nightly is the 11/14 or 11/15 nightly. My tablet died and I got busy with an emergency right now so I don't know what nightly I have on my nexus 7 but was able to use video add ons before with no issue. The program NaviX was force closing on me when I picked a play list. I get the messages that addons are incompatible, do you want to disable them, I choose no and they still work fine.

they changed something i xbmc development and almost all addons are off and i can't install them. Also xbmc subtitles addon is not in the repos!
I also can't find a decent one that doesn't begin telling me everything is broke or not working/compatible. They say they will have a working version for all android platfoms soon. I doubt it.
it seems that xbmc support is too poor! how to test their alpha images if we have not working addons? let's wait...
Any updates on this? I just got the nightly working, but every (most) plugin is incompatible and won't let me install them.

I'm using the latest nightly (xbmc-20131211-210cf9f-master-armeabi-v7a.apk) from the 11 December from http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/xbmc/nightlies/android/arm/
Most of the add-ons do not work but I haven't had any issues with sound on video playback like most of the other versions.
One I've found was DEC 6 nightly build. Doesn't force close every two minutes maybe once or twice a day. When you get the not working errors just cancel them. Everything works fine from my end. Not moving from this build. Most stable I found.

Same issue here.
Official answer is to use Nightlies, but XBMC automatically marks ALL addons on nightlies as incompatible whether or not it is actually true. Makes nightlies pretty goddamned worthless, and they won't vary from their "monthly" release schedule even for a major compatibility fix.
So basically if you use XBMC... don't ever upgrade your OS version.
One way to get various addons to work is to use the xbmchub wizard from xbmchub.com. When XBMC tells you addons are marked as broken, do you want to disable, just say no to each one. Annoying, but so far other than Navi X I can use my addons without issue.

The latest update to Chrome (webview) on March 6th breaks the HTC Mail app. It will FC or crash when trying to reply or compose. The app's reviews are taking a beating in the app store over it because folks are not associating it to the Chrome update but rather think HTC broke it somehow. To fix - roll back (Uninstall) Chrome. I hope this helps a few folks.

It wouldn't be the first time a webview update broke HTC Mail.
Thanks for the heads up.

Thank you soooo much for this info! I was getting desperate. I uninstalled Chrome updates, turned off auto-update, then rebooted. HTC Mail reply/reply all function now working again. For clarity, this is for an unlocked HTC-10 with the lastest Android 8.0 update package. Although the Android update was performed at least three weeks ago, the mail app only started to crash yesterday (at least as far as the first time I detected the crash behavior). This is the first real root cause solution I've found. Thanks again!
Htc. 10 email crushing since new chrome update. .if I remove the update twitter and some other applications are crashing. ...what should I do
Just use Gmail app guys. It is decent and, most importantly, stays up-to-date.
Still present in Chrome Beta 66.0.3359.30 selecting it as the webview handler in developer options.
If HTC are expecting Google to revert whatever they have done, will be a long wait. Fortunately they tend to release new versions with new devices so we will hopefully only have to wait that long.

HTC do not agree
https://twitter.com/HTC_de/status/973919420040048640
"Latest Chrome Update (application version 65. x. xxxx.xx) Unfortunately causes HTC Mail app crashes. ? Short-term workaround: Reset Chrome to previous version. Long-term workaround: Google introduces a new version into the Playstore."
This buck-passing between Google and HTC is inexcusable. Especially given this is another iteration of a years-old known bug. Not to mention the two companies are now official partners and co-developers.

Thanks for posting on the Google Chrome Help Forum.
I appreciate the information youv'e shared. Could you confirm if you are facing the same issue across devices? If yes, I suggest getting in touch with the HTC support for further assistance.
How much buck-passing do we need to endure between two supposed "partnered" companies until this is sorted out?

Anyone that uses HTC Mail actually test latest version available to see if it makes any difference?
I don't use HTC Mail app, or I'd test it myself.
Here's a link to the latest apk version:

Uninstalled updates for Chrome, and installed this version manually https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/chrome/chrome-64-0-3282-137-release/
That's the version just prior to the breaking one. Everything seems to be working fine. Disabled auto-update as well.

Also still broken with 10.80 but thats also older than this Chrome update, truly do hope HTC are on the case with it tho!
I can see a suggestion this is fixed in Chrome 66.0.3359.33 and beyond:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=823349
I only have 66.0.3359.30 right now so can't check.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=820756 also suggests HTC are working on a fix in the meantime.
So will be fixed at some point at least!
So the issue is gone with both the latest beta and canary versions but as I understand it, this is a workaround by Google and something HTC still need to fix.
If I use an API in my application and the API changes, I need to change my application and not wait for the API to change back (will not happen)...
HTC needs to fix this, not Google. They could even push code to the Chromium project, but it would be better if they took a look at HTC Mail first...
Also it is NOT an option to uninstall updates, ever. Updates are there for a reason
It's been out for a while now, and for a few days I'm wondering if it is stable enough for daily use.
From my researches i found some different opinions...
Some of them were about better battery life on Q than on pie... Some were about worse battery life... And some about crappy image quality with Q....
Can you guys tell me What problems did you face on Q? What are pros and cons vs pie?
Thanks!

For me even beta 3 was okay.. Switched to custom rom only because missing viper and normal file browsing in root folder.. Overall stability and battery was much more better than any rom I have tried.. And it was pretty smooth
I've been using q as my daily since beta 1. That said it is of course beta so you will run into some bugs. Overall it's a good experience and I'm loving the gesture navigation once getting used to it. Also I huge fan of the dark mode. Go into it keeping in mind if you decide to roll back to pie it'll wipe your data

Not yet for me as I use nova and gestures still don't work properly. Otherwise I'd say I'd be ok using it full time.

I am loving it as well. Installed beta 4 just after release. However, some important apps I use daily are not really working properly. Some crash outright, some crash after some time. I forget though, if I revert back, I know I will have to wipe my phone for it, but will it automatically revert to my backup from Pie?

Yeah a few apps that were fine for me in beta 3 aren't working well it at all for me in beta 4 as well. OneDrive just force closes, Twitter notifications for subscribed tweets closes,and MLB at Bat says it's not supported even if it worked just fine with beta 3.
If you go back to Android Pie you have to factory reset.

Been my daily since beta 3...some issues but good enough for daily
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
I prefer not to be a beta tester because I use my phone for business. But the built in call blocking feature that Google took away from all market apps running on Oreo or Pie, makes it worth using on a daily basis. I can put up with a shorter battery life, and plug it in my van for a recharge when I am driving.
In my opinion, it makes for a good daily driver.
Only issue I'm having is that my banking app won't work, but that's expected and in the release notes

no, your backup is now overwritten by a Q backup that Pie won't be able to use. You can use third-party backup apps instead

Actually, if you're referring to Google cloud/drive backup, once you revert to Pie, you can restore from previous backups. You will have to sign into apps like Instagram, etc., but it works. I have done it several times.
The first three were great. 4 has been crashing for me, and about half the time, I have to kill and restart apps in order to start them.

I noticed after the latest update with the Fold (AT&T version purchase at Best buy back in November 2019) caused my HBO GO app not to work. When I uninstalled it and tried to reinstall it, I noticed there are no HBO apps available for download now. When I went to the web and found a link to the app, it says that it's not compatible with my phone. I'm confused. It worked fine for months and now it's gone? I have a Galaxy Fold and not a Huawei or other Chinese knock off brand. Is there anyway to get this app working on the Fold?
Couldn't you try sodeload the app they most likely not made it combatable with android q 10
I'm still on Android 9 with AT&T. Does that make a difference? I had the app on my Fold and working months before.
Working fine here... Fold 5G, android 10.

It's probably something with that version, then, since I too am on stable but yet the older 13.18.7.29.arm64. I just manually checked for all updated apps and I'm still on this version. Hopefully, they'll release a stabler Stable version soon for you.
And hopefully, that truly is the cause.
Did you try rebooting?
You on the Android 13 beta? Or was it a different beta that you had tried? I am on the Android 13 beta and have been having the same issue since I updated to the latest beta build earlier this month. Granted, I always update beta builds ASAP and so perhaps this issue is occuring due to me disabling verity and verification this time around
I am also experiencing the same issue with the May update and Google app version 13.19.7.29. Battery optimization is disabled for the Google app and Play Services. I updated the Google app around the same time I installed the May update, so one of those two updates seems to be the issue in my experience.

One thing I forgot to mention in my previous post: I also began using LSPosed and AOSP Mods around the time I installed the May update. AOSP Mods hooks into the Pixel Launcher, which makes me wonder if it could be part of the issue.
