[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N23:
yes of course, but not all of the mails (it depends on the settings in the gmail app how many days) are stored on the device - the majority is stored on googles servers.

Interresting question, search for qemu, learn a lot about android, its ndk, c++, and how hardware works... then a bit more try and fail and you have windows 7 running inside of your android. because of the nature of your question i would say you will need about 10 years, if you are a good learner maybe 7. Windows 8 for arm will maybe come earlier and motorola will maybe... ehm no they wont.

Sorry for my sarcastic nature. but hey, take it serious, learn what i told you and maybe you solve this problem from a side you never expected.

Just set up remote access to your Windows 7 PC and access it on your Xoom whether it be via RDP, LogMeIn, TeamViewer, etc. The addition of a bluetooth keyboard makes it even better. Counting remote access, my Xoom runs Windows 7, XP, Server 2003, Server 2008, and Mac OS X.

* Java support

* Silverlight support

* Flash support - not sure where this is at, but Friv doesn't work.

* WMV support - sure, it's Microsoft, but it's a pretty old standard these days and everything else seems to play it.

* Fully working MKV support - regardless of the video player I use (and I've installed quite a few), there's either choppy playback, no sound etc.. All of these play fine through my cheapy LG BD player.

* Fully working H264 support - I have a number of videos from various sources and I find that regardless of the video player I use, the sound often stops after a few minutes or the video stops entirely, forcing me to keep rewinding slightly to get it to play past that bit. There's nothing wrong with the files, they play fine elsewhere and the Xoom will play them completely if I keep rewinding each time the sound cuts.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
Well, the Javascript engine is the best around. And Java byte code...well all apps for android are written in Java (I list both because some people don't know there is a difference) The standard Java SDK will probably never work due to the nature of the devices themselves.

Microsoft Technology - never going to happen, though there are some things lingering out there. But I'd place money on saying it will never happen.

Some flash apps simply aren't optimized for touch, or are so horribly written that the device can't offer the performance needed, heck my quad core desktop struggles with some.

VLC Player will be out in a few months max.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HandySpanner:
Yeah, I did mean full in-place Java app support. The web interface to my CCTV uses a signed java app, which of course doesn't work.

Yeah, I agree that's unlikely, especially with the focus for this kind of thing becoming HTML5. It's just a pain ATM because of apps like Sky's video player.

I can't remember the error (and I don't have my Xoom with me), but Friv comes up with an error saying that it doesn't recognise the install of Flash (or something like that). It's different to before I had Flash installed at all IIRC. It's not a performance thing. I think a few other sites say the same thing. Perhaps it's some kind of out-of-browser support it's looking for.

:D That's great news, thanks. I did try looking for it but of course failed. I do use that from time to time on my PC and it does seem like a good solid product. I hope that solves all the video issues.

However I have read that if you are willing to unlock your bootloader (via fastboot method), you can flash the pre-rooted 2.3.3 image (.img file) - which is also sometimes referred as a '_system' file and then you will have a rooted ROM of 2.3.3.

You knew this as well Im sure.

But there is a way to unbrand your Arc from its carrier too

Not to belittle anyone, my hours over days of reading posting at this forum led me to also believe that there is a way to also UNBRAND one's phone from a carrier/telecoms company.

If my memory does not fail me, I did read some step by step provided for the above. But then again, its not my business - just trying to be useful.

But of course you're very correct that a lot of us are earnestly waiting for a new Gingerbreak kind of hack for 2.3.3 where everyone can be just a few taps away from rooting the Arc.

I would not hesitate to donate if there is some solid initiative started for a new Gingerbreak.

Can your method to root xperia arc with stock rom 2.3.3 thx give me info
[Xperia Arc General] ricstc:
Read up somewhere in this forum where it teaches you how to unbrand your phone if it is locked to a carrier, then unlock the bootloader, flash in stock 2.3.3 ROM, then on top of that, followed by flashing in the already ROOTED 2.3.3 system to make your phone 2.3.3 ROM Rooted. With this you can buy Titanium Backup and freeze or uninstall anything (almost) you think you dont want - which makes you the master of your phone anyhow you see it.

Currently only 2.3.2 can be rooted with just one click using Gingerbreak 1.2

Look for posting senior member Step666 for the tutorial.

Many thanks to Bin4ry! :)

For those interested: I had originally uppgraded to 2.3.3 thru SEUS before I decided to unlock my bootloader and install the modded/rooted Neo image, so a downgrade to 2.3.2 is obviously possible.
