avi or mp4 file size

i have 4 video files on my pc which add up to 7.55 gbs but when i copy and paste them on my tablet my usage says i used 36 gbs out of my 60
When making file size comparisons it's much more revealing to look into the actual size of both files, relying upon used or open disk space of the storage media will always need to also take into account the size of each storage media plus whatever data is residing on both (which must also include things like hidden files and directories).

Root Rooting the T510

Yes, I know the thread is old; so is the tablet. I have a Velocity Micro Cruz T510 tablet; it runs 4.1.2. It's slow and dumb, but it was cheap. I thought I might try rooting it.
yeah chainfire the dev who created the original su app has taken the app out of the play store. there might be an apk floating around the net, just be careful where you get the apk's as some apk sites are notorious for viruses and other malicious stuff. i wonder if magisk might work on your device instead.

i could not really find much info on your tablet and how to root it.

here is the info on magisk:https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Oxygen 10.3.1 MMS broken

This, I am afraid, is a known issue on the U.S. network for Verizon and the OnePlus 6T with Google Message. First reports seemed to appear at roughly the same time that Google Messenger allowed RCS, (Rich Communication Service), via their app and affects a number of phone models, including Google Pixels.

Have you downloaded the Carrier Services app by Google, free from the Play Store, and allow Permissions, to see if this helps?

That you for the information. Yes I have / had the Carrier Services app loaded, even prior to loading 10.3.0. As a follow up, I went to the Verizon store had them replace the SIM's card and MMS is now working again. They did say they have seen this a lot with OnePlus phones and suggested trying the Verizon Messenger. I've tried the OnePlus Messenger and it does work there, but I like Google's Messenger better.. Replacing the SIM's card seems to be the only way to fix Googles, Messenger. Would love to know why.....

Help Slow Data & wifi speeds in YouTube App but not Browser?

So I have been experiencing a lot of buffering while watch youtube videos in the YouTube app on my Galaxy S8. I did not pay much attention to but this morning I decided to hunt down the problem. I was trying to watch a video and I was getting buffer, even though the video was running a 144p quality. I have a 40 Mbps internet connection with Cox, so I should not have problems streaming a youtube video at any quality on my smartphone.

1. First I checked to make sure that there was nothing else on the network hogging the bandwidth.
2. I used my laptop to check my speed on speedtest.net. I got 32 Mbps UP and 15 Mbps DOWN.
3. I opened the speedtest.net app on my S8 and ran a speed test to the same server and got similar results as with my laptop.
4. I opened the YouTube App and tried to watch a video at 1080p. It buffered for 20 seconds before starting and went back to buffering after only playing for 5 seconds.
5. I copied the URL of the video and shut the YT app down and using the Chrome browser App I watched the video in 1080p with no slowdowns or buffering.

The same is true whether I am using WiFi or 4g LTE data. I cannot stream video reliably in the YouTube app, even with full bars of signal on 4G LTE. So it is clear that it is the YT app that is causing the issue. My question is WHY? Any suggestions?

Mods Samsung S7 Edge specific system animations

Something just came to mind, theres an app called "ApkToolX" by Andro Black and definitely not available from Google PS. Its a powerful root tool used for reveise engineering of apks, .jars, or even other elements of as OS. The links below provides a brief description

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.xd...-apks-on-the-go-with-apktool-for-android/amp/

ApkToolX is an android app that basically dose the same thing. aking it work is not as simple as downloading, installing, granting root and good to go.

My Note 4 n910p on MM is rooted with Chainfire (SuperSu). The chipset is a Snapdragon and an armV7

The process to make ApkToolX work as intended if a bit risky and certainly not for the novice. On my Samsung in the app setting list "apktool version" sub setting I choose 2.1.1, return to the main settings and in subsettings "aapt version 6.0". After that I check the box root and when prompted by SuperSu I grant ApkTool root permissions. Then reboot and back to ApkToolX and in /system/ framework / I scroll down to framwork-res.apk and tap it. From the list below I choose "inport as framework".

Scroll down a bit further and tap twframwork-res.apk and "inport as framework". Like I said "its not your normsl rooted app". Proper installation involves risk and just feels intimidating.


Ok, back to your original question :)
It wasn't untill later, and I wasn't even
consciously thinking about it. It just popped in my head. "I bet the transitions are somewhere in the Framwork.jar". So out of curiosity, I copied it and pasted it to my external sd, used ApkToolX to decompile the .jar

Stolen galaxy Tab Notebook

This is a complicated situation as a lot of police departments simply won't, or don't have the resources to devote to things like stolen mobile devices. They may contain invaluable data that means a lot to the owner but dollar-wise it's just petty thievery. In a densely populated area like NYC or Chicago if you report a lost tablet to a cop it's a matter of filing out a report and that'll get tossed into stack of thousands of other, similar reports, or just trashed in a day. Confronting the thief yourself could be risking your life.
But more details as to where this location is might reveal something.

system optimizer

Though it should dump other apps out of memory if it needs the space.

The bottom line is that with the system and user apps that always run, half of my memory is used at all times.

This means that there is very little 'headroom' left over for a game that will leave only 250-300MB behind.

My guess is that device performance would suffer, right along with game performance.

Someone with such a device would do better to eliminate all user apps that run in the background.

The friends I have that have economy devices that play games that are memory demanding have little to no other user apps on their devices.

I am lucky that the games I am involved in are not so demanding.

My External HDD (Passport 2Tb) works but usb stick is not recognized

using it on my laptop, with ubuntu 18.04 , I've formatted it to FAT, and the tablet still not recognizing it...
*waves at fellow [K]Ubuntu user!*

If the stick failed in another device, we'd have a clear idea of what's wrong--the stick. But since that's not the case, I'm not sure what else to suggest. Maybe trying it in another Android device? Just to see what happens. The problem could be with the tablet.

WPS

Thanks svim.
Hopefully I will be able to get the password tomorrow, my friends are on there way to NZ. I have a new phone since I was last here dog sitting.
I am using Google pay, had to setup face recognition to use it but. Seems ok. Only set it up because we had a bit of time to kill and decided to go for coffee, then realized neither of us had any money.
