Anyone got a suggestion for a wifi video streaming/on-the-fly conversion program similar to AirVideo on the iPad/iOS?

Currently using Emit on my Xperia Z tablet but find its quite flakey. Get random cut outs that cause the streaming video to go back to the very start, but playing the same on AirVideo via an iPad and there's no problems.
 
Speedtest.net finally updated:

Not sure, think I prefer the old one.
 
Also, swype isn't as responsive as all the other keyboards, slight delay when opening up on my S (stock) and iirc benjo said the same with his GS 3 (running custom ROMs)

Yep, I'm also using stock now. Changed the long press delay to 150ms though, the default was too slow :p
 
OMG.... after all these years, I think I have found a browser that could be better than AOSP Browser

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ddo.pigsty.HabitBrowser&hl=en_GB

Tons of options so takes a bit of time to set up, but their quick controls works a treat.

Thanks for posting. I did try this browser but tbh I couldn't be bothered to go through the tonof settings to aachieve what the ASOP browser already does. My search for the perfect android browser continues....
 
Firefox here. Works fine and best of all, desktop sync + two way sharing between browsers of content.
 
Tried the majority of keyboards out there but keep coming back to stock android:

- nicest layout by far imo, swype is ugly/dated looking with that 2.3/GB theme, swiftkey; I hate the way the numbers/symbols are laid out and none of the colour schemes are good except the cobalt theme
- nice little tweaks

Swype prediction isn't as good as swype and normal typing isn't as good as swiftkey but I type/swype pretty damn well with stock android keyboard anyway and don't really find myself becoming "annoyed" with it :p

Also, swype isn't as responsive as all the other keyboards, slight delay when opening up on my S (stock) and iirc benjo said the same with his GS 3 (running custom ROMs)

Stock for me also! I don't even swype I can normal type perfectly quickly anyway!

I also don't like the new speedtest colours :|
 
Speedtest app update would not run speedtest (could not click the button) until I set the DPI back to the default 320.
