[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
There are some differences between Silverlight on Windows Phone and Desktop. I believe Silverlight on Windows Phone is a fork of Silverlight 3, whereas the desktop is currently Silverlight 4. It'd be nice to see them converge at Silverlight 5 (crossing fingers for MIX 2011). I've heard plenty of rumors that Microsoft is at work on the compatibility issues.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Sure, but Silverlight can be updated with or without changing the underlying OS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
You're right - there is nothing saying they have to. It makes sense business wise though. Rather than having two teams working full out maintaining two similar yet very different OSes they can have one team working on maintaining one OS running on both platforms.

CE does run on ARM, it has done so for years and it's been in use in the enterprise sector for as long. Problem is, WinCE, even in it's later versions is old tech. Not just from a UI perspective but the core OS is old tech.

They won't be broken. They will function just as they have always done - with a mouse and/or keyboard. You can't take any old Win32 app and run it on ARM anyway, that's not the idea behind it at all.

Again, no. They don't have to do anything of the kind. They can do so to stay relevant - especially if their app is the type of app that would be useful on a tablet, but they don't have to. Just because Win8 will have a tablet specific UI does not mean it will not also have the old desktop UI we're all used to. You need to make a distinction between OS and UI, they are two very different things.

While I agree, there are still some bugs in the OS, NoDo did fix the major ones. Most of the remaining ones are non reproducible or actually "as designed". Also, many of them are not OS bugs but rather bugs that only appear on certain handsets.

True, but that's of little concern really. As long as SLx is backwards compatible - which it will be, all existing apps will continue to run just fine. Also, with Silverlight finally coming to the Xbox they have all three screens covered (personally I would have preferred a new iteration of Media Center, but there's still time for that) - TV, Desktop and Mobile. The idea is that we as developers can code/design for the audience rather than the platform. Great things ahead if you ask me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
AppleTV and GoogleTV are Appliance products. Microsoft did have a TV thing a while back, but that's another story. Windows Media Center is fine.

If people aren't expecting Apple to put OS/X on tablets, etc. Why would you make a statement basically they have no choice but to merge WP7 and Windows eventually?

Also, I was talking about Windows 8 (which runs on ARM, and is coming with touch UI), not Windows 7...
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
My choice of words was wrong. My bad. I was meaning that they should do something, something faster than what they are doing. Phones are moving closer and closer to PC capabilities.

Windows Media Center sucks balls compared to Google TV, and Apple TV. I'm seriously thinking about throwing my HTPC out the window. Its embarrassing. I mentioned it because Microsoft basically invented this market, and now they've been left behind. Sort of like what's going on now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
Windows Media Center is still the absolute best platform out there. Google TV has nothing on MC7. That said, they [MS] have definitely mismanaged the "platform", I say "platform" because Microsoft never saw it as a platform (God knows why?!). WES (Windows Embedded - which is basically a modularized version of Windows 7) should change this though. There were a few MC7 appliances on show at CES earlier this year and if they can deliver they will kill the competition.

From a WAF perspective nothing is close to MC7. From a live TV perspective the other platforms aren't even in the same ballpark.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I'd like to know more. Honestly elaborate more. Media Center is awfully slow compared to Google TV. I don't have a gtv, but I demoed it. You can search for shows and the web in a overlay of what you're currently watching on gtv. On my HTPC running windows 7, that's impossible. Starting Media Center is unbelievably slow, and browsing through media in media center is not fun. Its laggy as hell. On GTV its instant.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
If you find MC7 to be slow there is a problem with your machine (either hardware or software wise). I'm running it on several HTPCs in the house and there is no lag what so ever.

Comparing it to Google TV is kind of like comparing apples and oranges. They are both fruits, but that's pretty much it. Google TV does not have a live TV option as such - you have to feed the output of your DVR or whatever thru the gtv box. MC7 on the other hand accepts tuners (either local or remote) and acts as your DVR.

If you press the Guide button on your MC7 remote while watching TV it will overlay ontop of what you're watching, exactly like gtv. The guide is also one of the best in the industry (depending on your location of course). You also get [some] internet TV built in, but more can be added by installing a Hulu plugin. In addition you have Netflix etc.

I will agree that browsing the media on MC7 using the built-in functionality is rather lacking, but there are plenty of third-party apps that help with this. myTV is great for downloaded/recorded TV shows and My Movies is great for movies.

I've been using HTPCs for around 10 years and MC7 is IMO still the best option available and I've tried them all - multiple times :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I'm running on a AMD 6000, dual core 3.2 ghz. 4gb of ram. That's more than enough for media.

Have you tried XBMC? It runs circles around Media Center. I haven't tried those plugins you mentioned, I will do that today.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
I don't know why we're talking about Media Center, but its slowness is nothing compared to its uselessness - it requires a PC to run on. Comparing it to Google TV is pointless because the latter is set top box software. You just can't really use one instead of the other.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
@vetvito: Yup, tried XBMC also and while that's one of the better alternatives it's not as wife friendly :)

Sure, Google TV is a settop box, but it doesn't let you view live tv without yet another settop box. And try controlling a more unusual settop box with gtv.

MC7 on the other hand is all-in-one - and like I said, there are appliances running it on the way. Hell, there were even TVs with MC7 integrated shown at CES.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tedlogan42:
I had a similar issue with 5.1.1 at one point. I uninstalled Flash and then reinstalled it (figured it was worth a shot). It resolved it, strangely.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joeb2751:
When I get the down arrow in the stock browser, I just tap on it and then the video will load and play. Yours does not do this?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
You could go to browser settings and go to Enable Plug-Ins and select Always On so that you won't have to click on the Flash window, it will automatically start the video.

And the latest Flash works fine on my VEGAn 5.1.1. Just watched two episodes of Family Guy on Fox Television's website last night.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mt251401:
To get espn.com videos working I had to go into browser settings and change my device to Ipad. I think they are HTML5 but not sure. I use xscope browser
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joeb2751:
Yeah, but when I do that then all the aggravating flash ads automatically run too. I'd rather be able to just see the ones I want to see and let the others go....

Thanks for your response though. Good to know.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] streetsmart999:
Do it on your own Risk. it worked for me.. it may not work for you.

***Both Devices Must be rooted (Gtab and Other) Most of the Custom Roms are rooted.***

If you can see on you Android phone/Android device you can get that app onto Gtab with this few simple steps.

Let assume the device is your phone where you can see almost all the apps.

1. Have Titanium Backup (Free Or Paid) on both the device. (Phone/Gtab)

2. Download the the app you want onto your first device (Phone)

3. Backup with Titanium backup.

4. Connect phone to computer and copy files from Titanium Backup folder to desktop. (**** EACH APP WILL HAVE 3 FILES in TB mostly with something in front of the name and back of the name (app name).

For E.g (Names of the files in TB)

File 1. com.jhankis.animalsounds-5ac99359265f229c03bb8cb19c0afc71.apk

File 2. com.jhankis.animalsounds-20110401-041026.properties

File 3. com.jhankis.animalsounds-20110401-041026.tar

5. Now Connect your GTAB to computer and Copy the Files from Step 4. to GTAB Titanium Backup folder.

6. Reboot GTAB (Power Off and Power On).

7. Open Titanium Backup app

8. Click Menu (on GTAB)

9. Click on Batch

10.[Run] Restore all app's with Data.

11. Select the app u copied and Restore.** APPS ONLY NOT DATA**.

you will have those apps on you GTAB.

Hope this helps ... I did it and it worked for me with no issues. (did for my 2yr old son's fav apps) :)

Any questions PM me.. If this helped u. please press that thanks button.

I hope Moderator will make it sticky... If no one else posted. Cos i did not find this trick any where.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] doctorisin:
You can sync Ti Backup with Dropbox as well.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] streetsmart999:
Personally I never used bropbox.. So not sure. These steps worked for me, I'm happy. :-)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] drewden123:
You can use Astro App Backup and backup the apks, then plug your phone directly into your G Tab's USB and set your phone to mass storage mode. Then navigate to the phone in the file manager and install the apks you want located under the directory Astro saves backups.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] nitefallz:
Not all apps can be backed up. I've tried both Astro and Titanium to backup Need for Speed Shift and neither works.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] TheKaz:
I was going to suggest this method, as your phone doesn't need to be rooted then.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jpjj225:
All these ways work. I use astro to back up then put in on dropbox. Just be careful about restoring the data to your apps if you use tb. Some roms won't like that very much.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] streetsmart999:
Do you mind, if i copy paste this in the Main as second option? let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Estrongs file manager

... is a file manager with LAN capabilities. When I'm on the couch and need to swap files between my android devices. I just upload to m PC then download to my other device. I think its relatively quick and simpler than toggling Bluetooth between devices.

And I could b wrong but I was unaware that there was anybody that has plugged there phone into their tab for a direct wired android to android communication. thought the code for this hasn't been implemented.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] streetsmart999:
Its better to do how I mentioned.. Phone > Computer > Gtab it wont take much time.

say thanks :)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
Or?

You can simply use Bluetooth File Transfer and bypass all the extra steps listed on here..

This is a device to device app, pc not necessary.

[Droid 2 Global General] Tsnare:
That verizon crack down rumor
[Droid 2 Global General] rusty815:
If the rumor is true, then they already know that you rooted, so uprooting isn't going to help you
[Droid 2 Global General] Tsnare:
How would they know?
[Droid 2 Global General] rusty815:
according to what i read directly from the source P3Droid, they may have been tracking root users for quite some time, if thats true then unrooting wont be helping you.
[Droid 2 Global General] Tsnare:
I was only rooted for a week and never used a custom rom, overclocked, or wireless teathered.
[Droid 2 Global General] rusty815:
Again, according to the source, there are several ways to track when someone roots their phone, such as having a file that warns the network when it detects someone rooting, chances are if they are tracking root users then they already know you've rooted, even if it was only for a week. Again, this is IF they are tracking us.
[Droid 2 Global General] AckbarsFist:
You can unroot using Z4root then just delete it from your phone.
[Droid 2 Global General] ElectroGeek:
Yes you SHOULD be able to unroot with z4 but like the previous posts say, if they are tracking root users you could well be screwed. If there is any tracking going on it must not be stored on the phone though. If it were, one of the many modders in this community would have uncovered it. I would think that it would be stored on the server side....

Hey!

Soo I'm a total noob and i've looked around but can't seem to find this problem. I flashed a stock 2.3.3 for the samsung Galaxy S I9000M. My phone is originally from bell and I couldn't go on the market and sms that where sent to me shows that it was sent 4 hours ago. I bought it off some guy who unlocked it for me. I'm on the Fido network.

So I got a friend to flash it for me and it's on 2.3.3 I9000xxjvk. And now I can't get the 3G to work and it says i'm roaming. Mind you the market works now and sms shows the right time.

I know it has something to do with the modem. My friend suggested the SP6160_ARIES_DB221110 from :http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876391

Now I have odin and the AIO Vibrant Toolbox installed. But i have no idea how to flash that modem. And I don't feel like bricking my phone thats barely a week old.
