Anyone else having this same issue:
When I pause a movie on another device (laptop, desktop, Blu-ray player) and then resume it on my phone, the movie does not resume in the same spot where I left off.
However, if I am watching on my phone, pause it, then resume on one of the other devices, it picks up at the right spot.
I called customer service and the terribly helpful lady told me that ". . . maybe my router was worn out" Seriously, where do they find these people?

Netflix has auto resume from last point. You need to pause the movie first then load up netflix from your other source. A cold start

Yes, that is what I was referring to, but for some reason, the phone software is not auto-resuming where the last device left off.

I just got off the phone with Netflix who informed me that the current version of the Android software DOES NOT have the functionality to resume a movie where you paused it on another device and that it will be implemented in a future release.
If this is true, I am awfully surprised a whole bunch of you did not report experiencing this issue.

Well, she's right, ya know. Have you checked your router fluids yet? And don't refill it with b when you need n, okay? That'll really hurt it.
Sorry I can't help with Netflix issue; I haven't noticed that on mine but I don't doubt it's happening. Netflix between different devices can be wonky at times.

LOL. Turns out I had a left-handed router.
See update above, per Netflix our application does not have this functionality . . YET.
Not to confuse the issue, past the explanation of the "excellent" netflix CS agent, but my netflix app does not suffer from this problem. And I use this functionality 10+ times a day. It resumes from my xbox and ps3 to my phone perfectly fine, and always has.

Well, that does confuse the issue . . . and kinda blow - for me. This just proves that NOBODY at Netflix knows what the F they are talking about.
Then, I wonder what it is then. Is it only movies or tv shows also? What current build and setup? How far off does it usually start? How long between starting on phone after shutting off on other device? Do you completely back out of show before starting it on the phone?
Anyone had any luck getting HBO Go to work? I'm not rooted and I get the "This device is not compatible with HBO Go" after the load screen. Getting that to work would float my boat.
I attached the .apk if someone is rooted and wants to try it, but I'm suspecting that Go lets the HBO servers see what device I have and waves the "uh uh" finger.
Thank you for your time.
Gives me the same deal. I'm on CM7 and rooted.

Wow, I'm kind of surprised to see that question here
Over on the Amazon forums someone discovered that it seems to do some sort of compatibility check over the network when it starts, so if you turn wireless off when you first start it, then enable it when it says you need to connect to the internet to access content, it is able to skip the check and it will work.
Of course, there are issues actually using it once it starts that HBO will have to fix. For example, when I adjust the volume while a video is playing it stops and either goes back to the beginning or back to the menu.

CM7 and rooted and it works for me, although video is pretty chunky... seems like I get a higher quality feed on my iphone + ipad... (doesn't seem to do the "optimizing video quality" screen on the kf)
Wow, yes that works albeit poorly. Thanks all.
It works! http://youtu.be/05T2O_I6bOo
For those on Stock rom and any problem related to streaming video not working on rooted ROM-s, use Voodoo OTA rootkeeper.
First you need to do backup in it, than activate Temporary unroot and app's should work.
Hi
So here is my 2nd (and last as I am going to keep my Gear and sale the Z) rom for the smartq z watch.
Based on stock 2.1 rom
Rooted (thanks clockworkmod)
File manager deleted
sleeping analyzis deleted
Fx File manager and Fx root add on from Nextapp added
Flit keyboard from Locnet added
Quick keyboard switcher from Appaholics added
App Uninstaller added
AOSP Browser added
AOSP Calculator added
Gapps small package added (no gmail, no maps ... you can download those apps from playstore)
[HOW-TO]
1-Flash the watch with the restore tool from https://hotfile.com/dl/255788947/abfedd9/z1_restore_tool.zip.html (yes, i know, it will format the watch and you will loose everything... but it is needed)
2-Copy this http://www.multiupload.nl/TNB1INGIWU to the root of the /Sdcard of your watch and rename it as update.zip
3-Start the flash from the watch
4-After the boot you can delete the 2 chinese apps with App Uninstaller
[Remember]
if you apply an update (OTA or full update) you will loose root, gapps ....
[Issues/Advices]
The screen is so small that you can't see all the options of superuser when an app ask for root rights. So, you will have to go to Superuser and change setting to "allways answer yes" before installing and starting for the 1st time a new app which needs root, after what, off course, you can go back to superuser and change again settings
You can't apply my rom without flashing with the restore tool before ! Even if you are yet running my rom ! Sorry but i don't have time to change this ...
I suggest you to install Ultimate Dynamic Navbar from Playstore (better than PIE)
[Screenshots]
Problem
I followed your instruction to use the restore tool first, before installing your ROM.
Problems:
(1) No watch face widget
(2) UI becomes very very very sluggish
I repeated the procedure and the result was the same. I even went into recovery and wipe user data / cache / dalvik / system, and then use the restore tool again before installing your ROM again. Then above problem were still there.
Sorry it does not work for me.
Sorry my watch is yet on the package ready to be sale and shipped...
With gapps I think that this watch won't be a star... To much props and services to load.
For the watch face do you mean the watch when the watch wake up? It was there on mine.

Correct. I never see any watch face, there is only a blank screen when the watch boots up. You can still swipe sideways to see the widgets and app menu.

I had the same problem ..blank start screen. But I could only swipe right (bringing new screen in from left side).
So I tried redoing the whole procedure ...and now I think I bricked my watch ;-( It wont start or go into restore mode ..just keeps buzzing 4 times and then after a pause buzzes twice...then repeats
UPDATE: Managed to get the watch restored ..not sure what the exact procedure is but requires lots of patience trying the restore mode buttons over and over again while connected to the restore/burn tool.
Whats the original density I belive the clock widget problem has to do 140 dpi

Deadbeef ...I've had this a couple times now; in my case my watch goes into a buzzing pattern (4 buzzes pause 2 buzzes long pause ...then repeats over and over again). I think this is when its "on" ...and when its "off" then its obviously just blank/no buzzing at all.
I've managed to eventually get it back but just requires patience.
My best solution so far is ...
If its not buzzing (i.e. off) start the restore/burn tool so that its listening for the watch restore mode. Then plug in the watch.
And then keep doing the power+back buttons press for 8+ seconds. ie if the button sequence doesnt trigger the restore procedure then wait a few second and press both the buttons again.
Finaly got the custom 2.1 rom installed

Wasn't able to install a working usb boot driver for the watch, so the restore tool could not communicate with it.
Found an old laptop with Win XP and installed the Restore tool and the boot driver from it's subdirectory.
Watch was was found on the second try.
After restore to 1.5 I was able to copy and upgrade to this great custom Rom on my Win 7 64bit pc.
Thanx, for the ROM. It's great. Now the watch has a reason to stay.

Geek78, your work is very impressive. So cool to know people are working on the smartwatches too!
I have a general question for you because i don't know if anyone else would be able to answer. I personally am using the ZGPAX S5 and love it (http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/1467454256/The_newest_android_watch_phone_android.html) - However, i am trying to use widget locker or go locker to overried the desk clock from coming up when i wake the device... it's very hit and miss. I was wondering if you might know how to disable this in the deskclock apk package. I have rom toolbox on the watch and can freeze various parts of the app. I haven't been able to figure it out yet. Hell, i even renamed deskclock.apk to apk.bak in system/app and the dam thing still runs after clearing dalvik (did the same with stock launcher, running adw now). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. who knows maybe you will mess around with this watch one day... lol
Using this watch with wifi enabled kills the battery. This rom is great. Installed es file explorer and gmail. Wifi antenna is weak. Very low range. Wishing there was a way to connect over BT to my phone.

[QUOTE Wishing there was a way to connect over BT to my phone.
what do you mean for the pc connection you mean?
The wifi tranmitter on this watch has extremely limited range and eats up a lot of the battery. Using a BT connection over my phone (tethering) to acces the Internet.
Also installed Facebook without problems. Tried MX player. It works with both internal and mips drivers. Choppy but it works. Even streaming mp4 over Lan. But the player crashes after 30 sec.

Hi everybody.
I received my mojo friday, and everything was going well. I rooted it, and it was fine.
But now:
1) yesterday i noticed that mojo didnt connect to my home wifi (before yeasterday it always worked), so i tried to "forget" the hotspot, i tried to switch off the wifi connection and so on, but nothing happens. My laptop, my phone, and my xbox360 working fine. What could i do?
2) last thing, about my tv, that cut the edge of the mojo screen (i cant see navigation bar, so i couldnt see if there are any notification or whatever.. ), i tried to change the screen setting on the tv menu, but nothing happens.
So, im sorry if i posted some stupid questions, but for this kind of stuff im a real noob, and i hope somebody could help me.
Thanks for help!
I'm not much help, but did you install the latest firmware? I've only used the first and last firmwares and had no real problems with wifi, but other people have mentioned wifi issues with other firmwares here.
As for your screen problem, one of the early threads in this forum talks about tv settings you can try to change. Each TV is different, and my off-brand tv didn't have the options mentioned in the thread, so as a result I can't maximize the screen size.
Good luck!

Hi Welcome
# as P901 said upgrade to the lastest firmware (although I prefer v202 because of the running apps 'MadCatz' button works better)
ftp://86.54.116.234/pub/software/mojo/firmware/
If you have ouya and onlive, then your' already on the latest.
Try a hard reboot (off/on)/plain mode & and forget settings
#2, overscan, search the forum for it, you'll need to find your TV's manual and turn it off
Thank you guys!
By the way i solved the problems with wifi and the ctrlr.. The wifi problem was given by the wrong data and hour.. I unplug everything before going to sleep, and this will reset the mojo clock. Anyway i will download that firmware..
For the tv.. Mine is a 32" inch by haier, there are some screen costumization (automatic, zoom 1, zoom 2, 16:9 and 4:3).. But when i try to apply nothing changes. I saw on the playstore, there are some app who change the screen resolution. Do you think this will work even on a tv?
Little edit.
I checked my version, and is 205.. I have Ouya, but when i try to install Onlive from the market a message says that is not compatible with my mojo.. WTF?!
Somewhere in the mojo settings their is the option to manually resize the screen, sorry I can't be more help than that. Its been about 8 months since I did mine. Just search the options menu hard.
Also in options go to about devise and click about devise 7 times in a row to enable the developers options the same way as you do every android devises to enable the extra options in case its in there.

Weird tbf the mojo is half arsed but its compatible on mine running 205. If when you do get it working make sure before you log in on the first menu, go to settings and change the screen quality from 1080 to 720p this will drasticly reduce the input lag experienced on the mojo. Hate to dissapoint but onlive is no where as smooth on the mojo as it is on the micro console or PC app am afraid and has horrific input lag, driving and shooters are nearly unplayable at times.

with the latest firmware, in google settings you can change your resolution.. but it wont fix your overscan issue.
RE onlive, it's only available in the US(canada??,EU??) , everywhere else SOL
I noticed after root on 205 firmware, the play store didnt have as many apps available, now I use Market Helper, see my modern combat post.

I keep the dongle in 'line of sight' with the controller for better performance and bettery saving.
I have my mojo under the tv with the back (USB ports/cables etc) facing me.
You might have yours somewhere obscured?
And the controller lags bad on low batteries
About Onlive, ok, i sideloaded it from the market and its work really bad. Looks like watching an old vhs movies at slow mo. ahahaha And anyway, i could get an account because im not from USA.. :/ Whatever.
For the tv, ok, i will wait to have money to buy a new tv, probably around christmas time. We will see.
In the next days i should receive my blutooth keyboard, write on the android keyboard with point and click is a very pain in the ass I cant tell im satisfied from my mojo, now, but i see big potential on it. Wait and see..

I think the lags between the action/button on the controller being pressed it registering and completing on the online server then the footage what you've done being streamed to the console.
Just saying there's a noticeable difference between the onlive MC and mojo when it comes to performance.
Vomit or had you changed the screen quality from 1080p to 720p at the first menu screen before you log in? That should help stop it looking like a vhs tape. But won't help with the controls.
I was using my nexus player a little while ago with the remote that came with it when it suddenly stopped working and now the LED light constantly flashes. I have taken the batteries out and put them back in, still the same result. anybody have an idea what that means? maybe indication the batteries are dying?

For whatever reason your remote lost sync with the NP. If you go to settings near the bottom, you can re-sync the remote in accessories, I believe (not in front of the player at the moment). If your remote is listed there already you can remove it then redo it. This will require pressing the Home and Back buttons at the same time to put the remote in discoverable mode.

Ah yes! Thank you! I did not even think about that!
This has happened to me multiple times. It is annoying. I wonder is anyone else is experiencing this.
It might be possible you hit the Home+Back buttons at the same time, putting the remote in discovery mode.

I'm having the same issues listed. I've tried several times repairing. I have been using the Android TV remote app on my phone in place when it happens. Thankfully DroidMote server just updated to support the Nexus Player and works awesome! You have to be rooted but it makes the Nexus Player so much easier to manage with the option for trackpad/gamepad/remote all in one.
EDIT: I've also tried pairing a bluetooth mouse but haven't had success. Maybe it has something to do with the mouse I have. I bought it in Japan and it's an Elecom brand.

This happens to me quite regularly (every week or two). Luckily I have my phone setup as a backup remote, so I can fairly easily re-pair it, but it really makes the Nexus Player seem very much like a beta-quality release.
Seems that this is more that just a coincidence. Still no fix.
