Video never starts playing

I just purchased MX Player Pro from the Google Play store and have v1.7.40 (neon)installed on my Nexus 6. Since I have a lot of video files with AC3 audio, I installed the custom AC3 codec found here on XDA (automatic restart applied). After that, I configured MX Player Pro to use HW+ decoding and failover to HW decoding.

I can't seem to get videos to play at all. I open a video and it sits there like it's on pause. I've tried multiple video files and get the same result. Most are x.264, one is x.265. I've tried changing it to HW decoding as well as SW decoding but get the same result. I've force stopped the app and tried again after clearing the app data and telling it NOT to use the custom codec but still get the same result. Am I doing something wrong? I really like MX Player Pro but I'm going to need to refund it if I can't get it to work. :(

EDIT: On some videos that I start, if I manually fast forward, I don't see any video at all. On the x.265 video, I can manually fast forward and see the video frame of where it's at in the timeline but it just never plays.
END EDIT

On a side note, after launching MX Player Pro for the first time, I was not prompted to install the codec package so I installed it manually.

Thanks so much to anyone who takes the time to read this and/or assist with this matter.

Battery Drain / Never sleep

At this moment i am on MIUI 7 5.9.1

I still have battery drain problem - device never sleeps. Any fix for this except installing custom rom ?

Why did we never get any ROMs or updates?

For its time the Flex was a superb phone at a very good price. Plenty of ram, processing power, etc. It even had IR and a big colored led. How being much, much harder to break than a typical phone is anything but great is beyond me. So how the hell did we not get one single rom? I've seen dinky little /3.5in throwaway phones get at least one rom. What happened?

Please help, my S6 NEVER goes into deep sleep...

Dear all,

I am writing this post to hopefully get some help or directions regarding my issue, because I have already spent hours and hours looking on the internet trying fixes on my phone without anything working for me so far.. So I am getting a bit hopeless....

I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S6 (SM-920I model), and since the beginning i have been shocked by how CRAPPY the battery life was. To give you some ideas, my phone loses around 3-5% of battery per hour when idling and screen off, meaning I am not doing anything at all with my phone. Overnight, I lose about 15-20% battery with my phone on airplane mode, power saving, or whatever else you want, when it is not doing anything at all..
I know that my problem is a deep sleep problem, quite easy to identify i guess, so I have spent a lot of time reading and trying to fix it by myself but so far nothing worked.

To give you some background, after unpacking the phone I quickly upgraded Android from 5.0 to 5.1.1, so I cannot tell how it was working at 5.0. It is only after that I saw that a lot of people have issues on 5.1, but it is strange because just before having my S6, I was having a OnePlus One on 5.1 and I didn't have such battery problems and everything worked fine except turning off the "keep awake" setting option for GooglePlayServices.

What I can say though, is that since I upgraded I never had so much difficulties trying to fix a problem on any Android phone than before. Basically, since day 1, my phone never went a single time into deep sleep mode.
So far, to fix this, I tried all the following:
- Reflash the stock firmware (Samsung 5.1.1) --> many times, with full Cache/davik wipe and factory resets
- Root my phone using UniKernel
- Install custom ROM (I am running XtreStoLite version 2.2) + all kinds of wipe/factory reset
- Flash different kernel that are shipped with the ROM (there are 5 different ones if I remember)
- Use my phone with only stock apps (to see if the problem comes from one of my apps)
- Cold reboots
- The "DeepSleepFix" using the Android terminal as described here: http://zidroid.com/fix-battery-drain...6-and-s6-edge/
- And desperately, try to use my phone normally for now

Overall, I would say that my battery would last roughly 15 -20h in total with normal usage, not even heavy, which quite sucks..

I can show the no deep sleep issue to you with some screenshots (http://postimg.org/gallery/f1n5mn4e/) , I have tried many applications to try to find the root cause such as:
- WLD
- 3C CPU
- BetterBatteryStats
- GSAM
etc.

I am monitoring my phone closely for the past 1-2 weeks and so far I have never seen it being in deep sleep at all (at least more than 0.2 seconds in total..). Also, when I check on the default Battery menu of Android, after a full day I would usually see "Android OS" on top and using 20-30% of the battery at least.
The problem seems to boil down to a process called "LHD" in the kernel wakelock. This is keeping my phone awake 100% of the time, whether I am using the phone or if I am not. However, even with this info I tried to search online and I cannot find anything about "LHD", so I am really stuck right now.. Do anybody knows what it is and why it is a problem for me?

If any of you have a solution or can give me some guidelines to help me fix this issue, I would really appreciate any help. If you need more information from me also let me know.

Thank you for taking the time to read me,

Best regards.

My Stock and never modified Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F) is literally stuck on Android 4.4.2.

Hello, sorry to bother whoever care to read this post, but I have a big concern about my Galaxy s5. I have it since April of this year and the phone has never get an update. I thought that Samsung pause or something the lollipop update because of the problems, but it has been a long time now and it still tells me that the phone is up to date to the latest version. The phone has never been rooted or flashed any rom o even official Samsung rom, so my question is, is it normal that it tells me that is updated to the latest version on Android Kit kat 4.4.2? Or there is something wrong with the phone? I don't want to flash an official rom because I never wanted to lose the option to receive OTA updates, but I apparently don't have that option even so.

Anybody knows something that can help me? I really appreciate any help you guys can provide. Thanks in advance for any answers.

Group Messaging never ending torment.

Hi. I despise the stock messaging app on my H810 Att LG G4. Sometimes I will get anonymous messages with nothing to download. Other times I will be prompted to retry to download an MMS over and over. I feel I am missing out on texts from my friends and family. I checked APN settings, called ATT, and even had a replacement phone shipped. I have tried multiple 3rd party apps. Textra intermittently works, but I constantly get a notification to "Cant retrieve MMS recheck APN settings". Group message has people with iphones and other carreirs, but I can't believe a basic functionality is so buggy. Do any of you have any tips to solve this issue.?

Snapchat will never workq

No snapchats will load, stories don't show up. When I go to the hosts file it shows at the bottom that one of the addresses doesn't have a # so I put one there, restart my phone and snapchat works perfectly fine again for abit then it just generates a new address in the hosts file with no #... why?
Thanks
