How to force Amazon Prime Video 1080p/FullHD? - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Improvable Situation
Amazon Prime Video let's you only use sd quality on this tablet. On amazon's official site, the only samsung tablet with 1080p support is tab s3 ("UHD/HDR/HD auf Sony Xperia XZ Premium-Mobilgeräten; HDR & HD auf dem Samsung Galaxy Note 7, Galaxy 8, 8+, Galaxy Tab S3, Sony Xperia XZ1").
How to improve (beginning)
So I questioned, why isn't it possible? After checking DRM Info I found out, that this device support google widevine secuirty level L1 (which is necessary for amazon's drm streaming to work). So the idea is, that Amazon just doesn't have whitelisted this device to use FullHD. Knowing this, I checked apps for changing device information and the best app I found is Device ID Masker Free which is also available in the play store. The advantage of the app is, that it doesn't change the system values (build.prop) itself but just hooks in the calls of apps which give back the information (see this explanation). Now the idea is to change the device information values to suggest amazon's app that this device is an tab s3. I first only changed the model number, which gave me an errorcode 1004 in amazon's app when I loaded the app. This found website suggests that this code is because device model error. So, it worked, amazon's app now fishes my manipulated device information data. But because of the errorcode it doesn't seem to be sufficiently changed. Now I changed my current model to "SM-T825" and current device and current product to "gts3llte". Now I can start amazon prime video app without error. But when I start a video I get an error (without code).
We will make it together
So, this just seems to be a matter of changing the device information data to the correct ones to get it working. So let's take together the journey to find the right values. Maybe now the "current hardware" is also important? What could you find out? Hope we get Amazon FullHD working on this device .

Did you make any progress? What did you try already?

there is a simple work around - use any android browser e.g. chrome or edge. set it to desktop site in browser settings and load amazon video page. 1st time you play you will get a one time grant permission check for encrypted content. after that , anything you stream in the browser quickly scales to show 1080p at bootom of screen.
once you expand the browser window to full screen, its just like using the amazon app, but in full HD. you even get the IMDB x-ray overlay when you pause the screen
I have this working on a 10 inch samsung tab s1 and on a lenovo yoga tab 3. you MUST choose desktop site setting., and stream within the browser. |Iprefer edge browser to stream my prime video in HD because it remembers that setting, and I can set ti to load last used page for easy continue..

Holy Grail - netflix and amazon video both in 1080p
PS to my workaround. above - i stumbled across this thread while seeking info on the the samsung tab s4- specifically- will it do amazon video 1080p out-of-the box like the s3?
amazon don't know and it is not covered in reviews so far, or mentioned in specs on samsung site
Idid a lot of research on the s3, before deciding to wait for the s4 - including talking to amazon, samsung, netflix - and what i found is that the s3 does stream amazon video at 1080p but netflix at only 720p without workarounds. Which is strange, as my samsung s1 does netflix at 1080p but there you go. strange but true, confirmed by experts and by testing with test patterns. i expect the s3 uses a samsung-specific version of the prime video app, not the one in play store, and that's how it workd, but I see no way / no where to grab that apk for use elsewhere.
My s1 can no longer access the samsung galaxy app store as they made it into an android 7+ only thing and I have android 6 on the s1 with no official upgrade for that.
My Fire HD 10 - the latest version with the1080p screen - does amazon at 1080p but it does netflix at only 720 via the official netflix app. (Tested with both google play and amazon app store versions and with test patterns). I get 1080p on the Fire HD 10 with a hacked netflix app but with that i lose the latest UI with the 10 secs forward skip. I am not aware of a hacked for L1 widevine version that also has the latest netflix UI ?
Thus my holy grail of finding an android tablet that does both at 1080p out of the box, remains unsolved - unless the S4 can. ?.
Now that the S4 is actually released, hopefully there will be more reviews and a definitive answer. meanwhile , all I get from amazon is ask samsung
I can get 1080p for both streams , on samsung and on fire tablets but only by using a hacked for widevine netflix app on the fire & the stream in browser trick for amazon on the samsung.
there is no " run in android browser" trick for netflix AFAIK. Netflix always redirects to the app if installed, or seys to install it, if not.
the s3 also has netflix HDR but as I say, only at 720., and hdr is probably not worth getting excited about yet. I did try to ding out that netflix content has it already but did not get far on that.
it would be nice to know if the s4 has netflix HDR, just as a future proofing thing though

Have any progress?

No, but I'm also still interested.

Do you have bought the s4 now?
If yes, could you please send the device info so one can use the masker app (see first post) to let amazon think, p580 is s4?
Edit: for netflix see https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...lix-hd-widevine-drm-l1-devices-t3307241/page5
I think: Technically the device is L1 compatible. So the only problem is, that the apps (neflix and prime video don't allow hd on them). So there seem to be only two workarounds:
- Modify the app (or use an older version of the app?), to allow 1080p playing for this device
- Use the normal app but simulate for the app that it is an compatible device (e.g. using device masker)

have not bought another Samsung and probably never will.they are way to expensive compared with this....
I bought a Lenovo yoga tab 3 pro, or plus? 10 inch Android 1080p Netflix , dolby audio, and for Amazon I use the workaround of desktop site in android edge browser. TBH Its been ages since Amazon prime added anything I want to watch. I mostly watch Netflix, and sky box sets for the HBO stuff in the UK

2 updates:
1. after studying all the confusing info on S4 and S5 re 1080p - does it or doesn't it...
I bought a HUAWEI M5 10.8 This does netflix 1080p AND amazon video 1080p straight out fo teh box [ wll you have to download the standard amazon video app for play store and log in...]
my smart workaround for amazon video HD - use a browser in dsdesktop site mode no longer works. A must have blocked that loophole, I could not get any HD to appear in any browser, so either amazon was having a bad evening or they blocked that option- I think the latter because I tried downloading other browsers and none were asking for permission to handle protected content
for the record, and moving on from the s4, I am still unsure if samsung S5 does netflix @ 1080P, amazon video @1080P... or just one out of 2, or neither...
but the Huawei M5 media pad does both. it does not seem to have any audio settings to twiddle, but it sounds similar to my Lenovo Yoya with its Dolby Atmos ON.
I still think Atmos on tablets is all hype no substance - and probably it sounds good just because of EQ boosts and tweaks. There are no actual speakers on the ceiling !

it doesnt work with me
i used chrome it forced to go on playstore to download prime video app please help

[Q] Choppy video 4.4.2

Hi all, I've just bought a 32gb N10 after reading all about it here. It came with 4.2.2, the first thing I did was update it to 4.4.2.
Netflix, iPlayer and YouTube/vimeo all have choppy playback, especially noticeable when the camera pans around a scene. I've read that 4.4 can cause video issues, and never tried 4.2.2 or 4.3.
Anyone experiencing the same thing? Any workarounds? I've already tried clearing app cache and disk cache (via recovery)

I watch video from the sources you mention except iPlayer and resolved any playback shutter I've experienced. I'm using rooted stock 4.4.2 and XPosed framework modules. For me the culprit turned out to be an often running background and app "FolderSync". Once I reduced the frequency of the sync the stuttering disappeared.
Here are some suggestions on figuring out the issues.
- at least temporarily disable background activity (eg. Onandroid backups definitely causes video stutter)
- first eliminate the network by copying a HD quality video onto the N10 and play it back from internal storage. If it shutters then get a player that supports ARM7 hardware decoding (eg. MX Player)
- if the test above proves that your N10 can handle the videos then you will need to focus on weak links in your network connection
For high bit rate videos (eg. 1080p my files), Wifi can be overwhelmed so I often use a USB Ethernet adapter.
With MX Player and it's ARM7 add-on I can play any video in my collection. With the the Ethernet adapter I can play Netflix's SuperHD quality while with WiFi lower quality steaming do occur. The. Nexus 10 is a very capable video player.

Thanks for your input. I tried MX player with ARM HW decoder and it works! But for netflix etc it's all software. Did it used to be smooth on 4.3?
I disabled backups in the settings, does rooting let you disable any other backup stuff?
Do a stock flash. Do not upgrade from an earlier version.

I didn't subscribe to Netflix until after I was using 4.4.2 and outside of occasional buffering I have not experienced video stuttering except for the background task issues I've described and fixed.

Hi,
I only had a problem with playing videos when my memory was cluttered like other people already stated. Make sure there's no apps running in background! I can't tell about Netflix though, I don't use it hehe, but today my memory was being used a lot by background apps and when I tried to watch a video in MX it skipped many frames and lagged a lot, after killing all background apps the video ran without issues .
~Lord
So I used wugfresh to flash the factory image 4.4.2 and iPlayer seems better but Netflix still seems a bit choppy (especially when it's streaming in super HD).
I'm disappointed as I mainly bought this to watch Netflix and iPlayer. Are there any kernels or ROMs that provide a better video experience? Will flash 4.3 tomorrow and see how that performs.
When you flash stock and then first setup make sure you do NOT tick to restore from backup. It restores slowness.
I use my N10 for iPlayer every day and works fine but I prefer to use get-iPlayer on a Linux or Windows device to download and then watch on Android it is more consistent experience plus you get HD and I play using MX player just fine.

I have installed 4.3 and netflix and iPlayer are now smoother (still a bit choppy but much better). I wonder if this is to do with the RAM allocation between 4.3 and 4.4. Hope 4.5 is better at videos than 4.3 and would be nice to get ART on it too.

The stuttering can vary by the service provider. Be careful on forming conclusions when you're dealing with remote Internet-based services. I find services like Hulu and iplayer (I don't use NetFlix) varies by the day. If were dumb enough to think that was due to the Android version I could easily make false conclusions. I have a Nexus 10, 7, 4 and 3 PCs and from that try to eliminate the variable service aspect from the Android version aspect.
Do look into get_iplayer, it is very good and in many ways superior to the iplayer App. What you can then do is accumulate media and then use an OTG USB storage device which then makes your need for large Android devices or ones with SD slots much less important.

My OTG storage which is tiny and I can plug it into the get_iplayer download server if I want a mass transfer faster than Wifi

Yes of course I have made sure that remote connections aren't the reason for choppyness. I compared using the same 50 Mbps connection using my laptop (1080p), an iPad 4, my nexus 10 and my Galaxy S4, at the same time of day sequentially. The nexus came out the choppiest (dropped frames) by far.Even on media downloaded then played back in the gallery app.
It just seems strange that google would release a (flagship) device with an inability to smoothly play 1080p video out of the box.

I don't have any 1080p media mine are 720p. Mine play fine. get_iplayer HD produces 1280x720 H264 25fps 2.3Mbit 1GB/hour files.
Did you literally take stock (without restoring from backup) install MX Player enable it to h/w+ and get choppiness?
I find the video performance of my N10 stunning, it is the fastest and clearest of all my devices. I use it for Hulu+ often at its streamed HD when offered, and usually off local media or streaming off NAS. To make my N10 choppy video I have to be doing typically 2 other things in the background at the same time, I think due to 1GB memory not really being enough.
There are N10 weaknesses, on mine if I load too many apps particularly more than a few Chrome tabs, it does a reboot, so I tend to use mine for big-screen media watching and I got a N7 and N4 alongside which allows more multitasking by multi devices, then my N10 is very stable and performing. For this reason I never would pay $500 for a N10 but got mine for $278 which I think given its stability and performance issues is fairer priced. My N4 which has 24% number of pixels of N10 and double the memory is far far more stable but not really a sit back and enjoy media device.
With MX player and HW decoding it was smooth - however I primarily got my N10 to stream Netflix and iPlayer, neither of which can you enable HW decoding. I will look into get_iplayer but my laptop is Windows for a start so it's a pain in the backside to install Ubuntu etc to download. It just seems like it's a workaround for a deficiency that shouldn't have existed in the first place!
Yesterday I watched a whole movie in Super HD on the N10 from Netflix on 4.3 and it was a lot lot smoother than 4.4.2. I'm not sure why it would be so different, as the OS was generally snappier in 4.4. The picture quality was great, albeit the colours were a bit washed out but i can live with that!

I use a playstore YouTube alternative app called Viral and it has a HW acceleration setting. I'm not sure if it would actually make a difference for you but Viral could always be uninstalled.
See: Settings->Player controls->Hardware acceleration->allow get for video player. It's a check box.

RTFM http://www.infradead.org/get_iplayer/html/get_iplayer.html
Therefore, we have created a Windows installer for get_iplayer which will attempt to download and install the various requirements. This can be obtained from:

If I'm traveling very light but I need a Windoze machine I have an ancient Netbook which sucks are performance but it runs the get_iplayer and I USB cable to copy over. If I'm traveling light and don't need a Windoze machine I'll have accumulated mp4 to the limit of the internal N10 storage then spill over into the ridiculously cheap OTG USB storage.
Downloading ahead and then playing local content removes a host of issues. It isn't a workaround but an alternative with advantages. Issues with streaming are that the BBC servers / bandwidth can be choppy themselves sometimes plus the Nexus 10 screen is much better than the highest definition content that the App delivers, if you download it goes up in quality (if you set modes=best) and really makes the N10 better to view. So it's relevant to this thread.
What I do is as get_iplayer exists is I accumulate the mp4 and when online with good Wifi 'net access exhaust all the Hulu etc online-only content and then move to watch the BBC stuff. Plenty of situations like hotels crap Wifi service come to mind.

Mojo's youtube app could not go higher than 720p?

The stock youtube app displays no items only a empty menu, so I have to download the latest ome from google play. My mojo is rooted.
However, the maximum quality of any video is only 720p, even if my mojo is set to 4k output to a 4k tv. Some of the videos I knew for a fact were 4k since I watched them on my shield tv.
I then thought this was the fault of stock rom, so I went all the way to flash the remix os 2 rom as well. But I could still only got 720p.
What is wrong with my unit? I thought madcatz mentioned 4k youtube.

My guess it that it's YouTube, not MOJO. They will tailor their files to the target.

Are you sure your internet connection is up to 4K? If so, try another (faster) browser. Firefox on Android is monster heavy. Even Dolphin might be too much, maybe Boat?

kevinthefixer has a good point. I've been able to watch typically laggy school lectures in Adobe connect using Puffin browser. Using one of these lighter browsers may do the trick for you (worth a try anyways).

I followed your suggestion and tried a few others browsers. However, it seems only Firefox and Chrome will get 1080p and 2160p from youtube's desktop sites - Firefox is very slow for 4k while chrome is giving me black screen no matter what resolution was chose.
For the other browsers, including Boat, the highest resolution is only 720 in desktop site.
At this stage, and after trying to play a 4K clip locally, I gave up. 4k on the mojo simply is not practical. I go back to my shield TV and the mojo will go the to TV in the basement.
720p is probably a pre-set from google itself. 1080p on mobile wouldn't even make sense for most users. google still allows to go to Desktop versions of its websites to stream better qualities.
Playing 4k on browser can be more difficult than localy in general. specially when playing anything else than AVC.
Mojo is VERY WELL capable of 4k locally. Im watching such contend nearly every time i start this little beast.
But it depends on the file itself. MP4 3840x2160 with AVC is a piece of cake, even beyond UHD its capable.
VP9 4k will not run fine at all. 1080p is fine but higher is tough.
Even HEVC at 1080p and a bit above is possible with Mojo.
Im using KODI btw.
The issue i have with Kodi and YT is a bit different. Sometimes the Plug-in, by that KODI itslef, stops and freezes the System. Same problem since day one on Mojo.
Conveniently, I've found a solution for you guys while solving a problem of my own with the YouTube app. That problem being the fact that I hate using my mouse to navigate. So upon finding out that there is a "lean back friendly" (ie: you can use the arrow keys to navigate) version of the YouTube app specific to Android TV, I installed it, it's much nicer to use than the mobile YouTube app for starters. And lastly but most importantly to you guys: you can enable 1080p.
You won't find it on the Play Store, at least I wasn't able to. I went to APK Mirror and got the latest version which I believe was from Dec 2015. I hope this helps everyone interested.

YouTube on Fire TV 4K stick experience

Could you please share your experience with this new app?
I have my stick connected to my 5.1 Home Cinema HDMI port. At theokwnt I'm getting 5.1 sound from Netflix and Amazon Prime.
I was hoping that with dedicated YouTube app I will also get 5.1 sound. When on 9th July I downloaded and installed this new YouTube app I was excited as I played my purchased movies and inhad 5.1 sound.
Today when I started watching another purchased movie it is only stereo. I checked other movies from my YouTube library and now they all play stereo. Netflix and Amazon Prime are still playing 5.1.
I'm wondering if google have changed something or YouTube app have been updated in a meantime.
Also the video quality I can select watching purchased videos is showing max 480p however the video looks like 1080p so not sure what's going on. For other regular videos I can change quality to 1080p.
Can someone suggest any fix?
Thanks for comments.
Update 1
I think google/YouTube is doing something as today I can see quality options to have 1080p included now. However the sound is still 2.0. Hopefully they will change this too.

Netflix Framerate Matching [Request for APK]

There were reports last August that Netflix was rolling out framerate matching for the Firestick devices but I still don't have it on my original Firestick 4K. Does anyone have a device with the feature working who would be able to share a copy of the apk here? I want to try side-loaded the version of the app that supports it to see if it works. I've got 3 different Fire Stick 4k devices and none of them have it.
I tried chatting with Netflix to see if they could tell me if it's only supported on the Max devices or something, but I couldn't get anyone who understood what framerate matching is. I miss they days when they could escalate your question to a higher tier of support.
