Anime fans.

Hey, has anyone been able to watch streaming anime from sites such as goodanime or gogoanime? I haven't been able to view them with Dolphin Browser and flash 10.1. Any success stories or can someone try on their evos? Thanks.

Bump, anyone?

Have you tried skyfire browser.. You can watch some flash videos using the certain feature of the broswer. Some sites will work, some dont.

Try pocketvod.com and report back

Both recommendations didnt work, thanks for the help though.

Once you got flash enabled this is anime on the go, its full free episodes without some kind of gimmicky membership. Watching Cowboy Bebop at work definitely lets the time fly by. Hope that is what you are looking for.

Akulamenuri could you post a step by step of what you did and what version of flash your using?

funimation works for me...
Hey, i watch fullmetal alchemist on funimation's site all the time with the stock browser and htc's flash lite, it works like a charm! just long hold on the video and play it in fullscreen, performance seems better that way.
http://www4.funimation.com/video/?
flash content takes the longest to load, so be patient. I've had success over 3g and wifi... let me know if you have questions.

Funimation works like a charm, but sites like gogoanime or goodanime won't work.

veoh has a webkit compatible page (veoh.com/iphone) for iphone that not surprisingly works for android so long as you know how to find what youre looking for ex. hr1ge would be heroic age ep1...works like a charm

kumby works fine

Kumby is like gogoanime and goodanime, none of them seem to work... Am I doing something wrong? I've tried to open them by double tapping and still a no go. Any recommendations?

I want to see some anime on my evo!!!

Root your phone and install FroYo. I'm watching some random anime on gogoanime right now as I type this.

Browser

My stock browser has been lagging a lot so I wonder if its better if used dolphin HD or miren or any other browser if so which browser do you recommend?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

why not try it yourself? only you can tell because that's your phone. but have you tried turning off the plug ins? maybe the flash is the one causing the lag.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Yeah. It's probably Flash. Go to Settings -> Plugins and hit "On Demand". I hate that Flash is set to Always On by default. It rapes your battery even when you're not in the browser since when you hit Home, it's still running.

Yeah maybe the flash I forgot about that

Dolphin mini
Also, be sure to update your flash player in the market.
If your browser still lags, and you'd like to continue using it, trying clearing the cache.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Opera mobile, fast lean and has a static start page that doesnt need to load when opening it for the first time/new tab. One down side is downloading say a podcast is not ideal.

Miren or Dolphin Mini are my top two...
Dolphin HD and xScope 6 are pretty good also... Don't like Firefox but it is getting better.

Google Movies on Rooted Xoom

If you rent a movie though the market on your Rooted Moto Xoom and try to play it in the Google movies app you will get an error 49 (rooted device not allowed).
But if you go to www.youtube.com in the browser and login you can then play your movie.
I have done this process on my Rooted WIFI Xoom with 3.2. (Desktop UA string). Just thought I would share...
This will only work if you are connected to a network. So if you can tether or if you have a Verizon Xoom you should be good to go mobile. Or you can always use WIFI.

How many movies did you try it with?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

one so far I wanted to put it on here so others can try... I will try a few more movies this week.

Yeah nice tip.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Wait- so after logging into you YouTube you jump back into your Google Movies app and it works or.......?
Do you watch the movies on YouTube using the browser?

Watch movies on YouTube though the browser. Could of been more clear.

how smooth is the video? I kinda wish you could watch them offline but at least we can watch them
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App

I only rented a SD movie in my first test I will try an HD soon the SD was very smooth.
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

Has anyone else tried this yet? What are your results?

just tried on my wifi xoom 3.1 with unlocked bootloader using the Bourne ultimatum (favorite movie) and it worked perfectly without a hitch.
this workaround will be useful until someone can figure out how to watch them in the movies app.

hmm... maybe if you did you tube sees the screen size in the browser and limits to 480...

im a newbie, so I apologize for the hand holding but can you please explain exactly how to view a Google video through the YouTube browser? I ordered a movie on Google videos and signed into YouTube, but where do I go from there? Thanks

if you type in"about:debug" (without quotes) in the browsers address bar you will get more settings. go to settings>debug>uastring and change it to desktop. then reload youtube and on the homepage there should be something like "don't forget to watch your movie" and that's it.

Music fix

Hello... i seem to be having trouble with my music. When i start playing it through the stock player and leave my phone alone to play some tunes... the phone will stop the music after about 3 minutes of playing. I have juice defender running and i set up the music player to continue running after the screen locks... does anyone have any idea what the hell is going on? Thanks for taking the time to help.

Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

Most probably your stock musicplayer is in "auto end list" in task manager app, it autostops the apps in the list at about the time you mentioned. Hope this helps and solves your issue...

I looked at auto end list but it wasnt there. Do you know of any other good music player? I usually use subsonic to connect to my media server at home, it has an option to keep the screen on. but when I'm in the car i like to listen to my tunes without streaming...

No problem, I ended up choosing PlayerPro myself a while back out of those Top 3.
BTW, Grab the "DSP Pack" and you can really have some fun with the equalizer settings added on...

Sometimes auto-ending a certain other app also causes the music to stop. I don't remember what it was, but it may have been photo gallery, or some other such media.

MX Player?

Hi,
So got my i9505 today, previously had the i9100.
I've got an issue, whereby when I am in a browser and I want to play a video, MX player doesn't play despite being set as the default player, instead it's video player that plays the video.
I've reset defaults for MX and set it as default again, to no avail... I can't seem to disable the Video Player app in App Management as I'm sure that would probably work... I'm guessing I'd have to be rooted... Which I don't really want to do just yet.
Anyone got any suggestions or advice?
Thanks in advance!

So stock player plays the video? You should be able to deselect it as default

Say a video from Facebook will play on MX player. But a video I've found on say pornmd or pornhub in the browser(yeah I watch porn lol) it plays on stock video app, any ideas?

Whenever I go to settings > more > Application Manager > all
I choose video player, and everything is greyed out, can force stop only...which results it starting up again when video is played.
I can't disable it, can't even untick show notifications.
This is the International S4.

It's not a default setting thing. . is more about the built in video player in the browser...used to happen on my note 2 in Chrome but not in stock browser..here apparently something changed

Yeah, just played around with Firefox and Dolphin and they seem to have it as it should be.
So to disable the stock video player, i'd have to root, then I can freeze it?
(rather not really root a phone i've hard barely a day, was waiting for root and customization when I get bored of TouchWiz).

any video from the net should play in stock player, it has gesture the same as MX... i had my s4 on release day in Aus for about an hour before it was rooted... i don't see what you have to lose in doing it now

The default browser on the S4 is based on Chrome, not the AOSP browser. That's why flash doesn't work, why clicking two close links shows a magnifier like Chrome, and why scrolling sucks in it.
