[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
S Amoled to regular Amoled, in the sunlight, is better. It's supposed to be more on par, if not slightly (depending on who you ask) better than LCD. I've seen them all. It's not drastically different / better. Marginally, if anything. Either way, using a phone outside in DIRECT sunlight blows. I have yet to see a display that changes the game. Super Amoled is only barely better than the Evo's LCD display. Better? Sure. That drastic of a difference that warrants it as a pro? No. Majority agrees.

Bottom line; using a phone in DIRECT sunlight still sucks, and isn't getting better any time soon.

S Amoled has it's advantages, and disadvantages. All comes down to the end user and what he feels he can deal with. Grainy text drives me up the wall, but after prolonged use I could get used to it. But it's something you see off the bat. That and the artificial color saturation. I'm also used to, and liking, the 'dullness' of the LCD displays. People make it seem like they are extremely dull when I happen to, personally, find them only slightly so but actually more appealing.

It's a personal preference on the matter of screens. But in terms of outdoor use, one is not drastically better than the other.
[EVO 4G General] vbetts:
Sense annoys the crap out of me, and the Nexus S easily has the better hardware. I mean come on, Adreno 200?

Plus, I just use ADW launcher with themes, or launcher pro with custom icons and docks and I'm okay. Plus, updates are straight from google with the Nexus S. Wasn't Gingerbread for the evo officially suppose to come in march or around that time?

Super AMOLED versus LCD, the colors look better from what I can tell, but honestly I only notice and real world differences when I put them side by side. They both kind of suck in the sun, so no one wins that one lawlz.
[EVO 4G General] sminker:
I bought my wife and daughter each a Nexus on Monday and I will have to say that I'm not impressed at all. Sure the processor is a tad snappier and it boots a little faster. Other than that there is no reason to upgrade from an Evo, IMO. I definitely like the Evo colors way better. The screens seem yellow and way too saturated.

I will have to say that it was rather easy to unlock and root them. I personally will be waiting for the 3d.
[EVO 4G General] stillblood:
dead on man love my nexus s 4g.

i like not having a led. now my girl isnt wondering who is textin me. ;)

im concerned about locked bootloaders on the new htc phones. thats why i didnt hold out for the 3d. I do miss a few thing about sence ui but then i use adw lancher, handsent, youmail and vagnette on my evo. so what im i missing out on?

but we all have are personal preferaces thats the beauty of android :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] richardtrip:
Because of the newer kernel for Gingerbread (2.6.35.7) we need newer modules for cifs and ext4. Compiled them:

download here: http://xda.richardtrip.org/?dir=tab/Gingerbread/modules

Before you ask.... a tun.ko is not needed (compiled in the kernel).
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] crisvillani:
Correct me if im wrong but will these modules give us EXT4 support on ginger ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] richardtrip:
insmod /system/lib/modules/jbd2.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/ext4.ko

and it should work.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Chino68:
how to?

i have kernel 2.6.32.9
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] k0sh:
hmm .. i doubt about it ... the rom is very fast and as far its good , why do i need to go for ext4 if the ext4 suck the battery life ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] steckums:

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] fidjit:
So really dumb, newb ( but learning so much so quickly :D ) question. Can I get my CIFS support back to stream videos on Overcome 2.0.0 if I use

insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/slow-work ??? :confused:

( think slow-work is needed from research )

( Settings ->About Device->Kernel Version 2.6.35.7 se.infra@SEP-52 #2 )
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] richardtrip:
you need to load slow-work.ko first.

Thank you very much
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Download the modules to /system/lib/modules/ (or anywhere really, just not the SD card) then load them using insmod. If you need them of every boot you can use an init.d script to load them automatically
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] acolwill:
For those of you who are inept, please find a link below to the same modules inside a CWM flashable zip.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] NGP:
Unfortunatly, init.d doesn't work in current version...:(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] fidjit:
Tried to manually load as per instructions.

Didn't seem to do anything to assist my cifs manager. Figured I'd go back to my nandroid backup I'd made just before. Stuck on Samsung screen. on reboot after restore :(

Had to do a restock and rebuild. As say in previous post learning a lot ..........like always take an Nandroid :D

Think I'll be leaving this to the experts and wait for a new already compiled kernel :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] NGP:
Cifs mananager doesn't help you. But it is simple to do that manually:

$su

#busybox insmod /system/lib/modules/easy-work.ko &&

#busybox insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko

#mount -r -t cifs -o <YourShareName,login,password> <MountingPoint>

I use GscriptLite for that.

so if i flash this via cwm it will give me ext4?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
Had a couple of questions on the Youtube HD playback issues.

1) There is a lag in playing Youtube HD videos in both the app and the browser using Flash. Flash 10.2 with HC 3.1 claims to fix the browser playback issue. Does the Youtube app also use Flash for playback ? Does HC 3.1 fix the app playback issue also ?

2) The YT app has an option called HQ, but doesn't specify if its 480 or 720p. Any idea what resolution it plays the video under HQ option ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
Any takers on this :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_aura:
I like better the mobile site version of YouTube and it plays videos a lot better than the full desktop site version.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoBrA2168:
Both have lagged for me (the app and the mobile site). I'm pretty sure the YouTube app works without flash installed, so not sure how a flash update will fix it.

I'm going to download the latest Flash when it's released (10.3) and try it out.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_aura:
Flash 10.3 appear as released for me, both on the Transformer and HTC EVO (already installed)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AngryDinosaur:
mine doesnt play

clicked a video, and it will change screen to load but jumped right back to the list of videos
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
That's interesting to me at least. The CNN app plays videos in full screen without lag or chopping frames, while the native Youtube app does lag and they both don't use flash. This makes me skeptical, if 3.1 would fix the issue with the playback lag in the app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itaintrite:
How's 10.3? Any better?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fropirate:
Not really, performance wise. We need honeycomb 3.1 and flash with hardware acceleration!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_aura:
That's right, the 10.3 can be installed on 3.0.1, but the hardware acceleration stuff is for 3.1+

The other things this update have are security fixes for 3.0+
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayesuku:
The 10.3 update seems to pretty much fix my Youtube lag problems. And a lot of the update might be for 3.1, but the release notes indicate it enables hardware acceleration by default on 3.0+ devices. So it should have helped you guys.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
Strangely, the choppy playback in the app seems to be a non-issue on the Xoom, even on 3.0.1. So, makes me think what the issue could be on the Transformer
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centex99:
after updating to 10.3 my web flash seems smoother... even at 720p its definately watchable and seems decent... the app seems to still be a bit choppy... maybe not as bad (hard to say)...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Punchatron:
Don't know if this has been mentioned yet as a workaround for the youtube app stuttering but it worked for me.

Install Dolphin HD and set the user agent to iPad.

Then when you touch play on a youtube vid choose Dolphin HD again if you get the app menu. DON'T CHOOSE THE YOUTUBE APP.

Dolphin should then load the default media player app and play the mp4 stream off of youtube instead of using Flash. Most HD vids were a lot smoother for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
Tried this and doesn't work for me. Problem still exists :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jyan_osu:
I'm working on a review of the Transformer and I emailed my ASUS PR rep.. speaking of Youtube, I asked him about this and his response was:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
Yes, that would fix the flash playback issue. But, how about the playback lag in the Youtube app ? Does 3.1 fix it too ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jyan_osu:
Yes that will be fixed with 3.1. I emailed him for clarification on the YouTube app being fixed and he said yes
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
Thanks. That really clarifies it. Will wait for 3.1 :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Srikar_NBK:
OK I returned my TF at PC Richards today and got a replacement. The speaker volume out of sync is gone in the new piece. The Youtube app playback is also much better in full screen, although it still lags for some videos. Also updated to the firmware .9 and things seem to be smoother. The audio fidelity also seems to have improved surely in this new piece. I'm more happy now :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reverence12389:
Am fully updated with the latest firmware and latest version of flash (10.3) and yet still experience choppy playback in both the Youtube app and flash in the browser. It doesn't seem nearly as bad when not in full screen mode, but once I try and expand it to full screen mode it is choppy and unwatchable. Hopefully 3.1 will fix this immensely.

People, I want to download a particular application, it is not "compatible" with my device, but it works fine, have already downloaded the app from third parties, but this application now was updated and do not found it anywhere, only in the market, but not let me download.

I've been reading about the market hacked, that would allow downloading app not compatible with my device? is to do this?

Wow Remote, from blizzard, version 2.0.3, i have the 1.0 downloaded from third party.

Moacir Jr.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Satch09:
I tried searching for it on the market via my PC and it too says that its not compatible with my mini so I guess theres nothing you can do, maybe the new release isn't made to be used on our little phones. You could try the market hack but I doubt it would help you because WOW remote might have be written for HDPI (big screens) and not LDPI (our small screens) and so theres no way that it would work.

Its just one of those things buddy, not all apps are compatible with our phones, maybe they're jealous of our awesomeness and don't want to share!! :D

Then again, I may be wrong (about the compatibility... not the awesomeness:cool:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] moahrs:
Yeah, i agree, but the old version was made for HDPI and was worked in my x10mp, and now, i think that verison, 2.0.3, will works too.

Is it that i need, marke hack, but i dont know how i hack y market. Have any app or other feature wich hack the market ?

Ty a lot

Moacir Jr.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Satch09:
The old version might have worked on HDPI and LDPI but the new only supports HDPI because the majority of android phones are HDPI :(

I'm not really sure what a market hack does, think its to allow you to either to download apps made users of phones on certain carriers (AT&T etc.) or to download/ unlock paid apps... which is NOT COOL and WRONG!!

It won't effect the compatibility problem you having, if its not compatible with your phone then no "hack" will make it compatible, bottom line.

I could be wrong, Google might hold more accurate answers...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] leftAlone:
I'm not sure if this is the market hack he means:

It just fools Google into thinking that you have a phone with an hVGA display. A lot of apps meant for hVGA displays works great on a qVGA, it's just that the app developer hasn't enabled it for qVGA screens. So it might work for the app you're trying to download.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Satch09:
I am enlightened

Thank you

Hey guys....

I need to verify something with those of you who own a T-Mobile US Branded Galaxy Tablet *AND* have upgraded to the 2.3.3 post here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1073854

Here's the steps.

1) Once you have upgraded to the new GB rom for your T-MoUS Galaxy Tab, get the free Ray Dialer from the android app store.

2) Stick in a SIM with voice on it.

3) Open Ray Dialer

4) Call a phone number.

Mine worked. I need to see if it works for others.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Not sure why you need verification if it works for you?

Since the GB upgrade flashes a voice capable modem, this is exactly what I'd expect, with the only downside being you'll have lost 3G. Also, why install another dialer when one is already there?

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssserpentine:
I just use line2 for ten bucks a month and grooveip to make all my calls. Line2 gives your tab a new phone number that allows you to call and keep 3g. Cmon, 10 bucks a month for unlimited calls is the best cell plan out there. Plus you can try it for 5 days free.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SmokeyFish:
I have been through a mess of attempts to root my phone and put it into 2e recovery so I could install custom mods, and ended up with nothing but an old version because I had to flash it on to be able to use it.

I'll try to explain the process.. first I had 2.2 firmware with JPC, was rooted already with superuser and then I tried to flash it into 2e recovery but when it finished the phone booted up, got in the main screen where you swipe the screen to unlock but got stuck there after a couple seconds, started vibrating randomly and shut down.

After that happened I flashed an original i9000 tar on it and it came back to life, unrooted and in JP6.

The first time I tried to flash it into 2e I forgot to run odin as an admin, so I thought that was my mistake so I went ahead and tried it again with a JP6 version and ran odin as admin, but the same exact thing happened... gets stuck in the same place so I flashed the original again.

I'm on a EU Galaxy S I9000 JP6 Froyo.

Anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

I don't want to make any mistakes, as im quite new to this phone and hacking/updating/putting new **** on it, so can you be a little more clear on the steps to take? I'm obviously going to upgrade to GB...

I can get into download mode fine, do I flash the 512 PIT file and the PDA_XWJVH_Sbl.tar.md5 file together? also just to make absolutely sure because I heard the partition thing can brick my phone, should it be checked for this particular flash?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beerdaddy:
You should only use the repartition option when flashing a 3 file firmware. You can get them from samfirmware.com. The JVB firmware has all 3 files so I would download it.

Once downloaded open Odin and stick the files in the required fields. Insert your .pit file and select repart.

Once you have booted in to JVB you can then flash JVH using Odin in the PDA field with NO repartition.

Once booted into JVH I would use CF Root kernal to get root access

Ok well, after succesfully installing the original 2.2.2 rom through KDZ in emergency mod, i decided to roll back to 2.2, so i opened KDZ again and started flashing it.. well, at a point it just crashes.. I said "no worries, let's start over again".

I tried to flash again but i was getting multiple errors or crashes, so i decided to turn the phone off and unplug it from the USB.

After replugging, KDZ stopped recognising it and now im stuck at a forced emergency screen unable to flash the original rom back... any chance to fix it or it's definitely dead?

EDIT: By turning off the battery, disabling modem device on pc and connecting usb i could manage to start KDZ update. During the installation I got an error so I couldn't finish it. Tried many times without results. I was stuck in emergency mode. After doing the same steps, phone doesn't even turn on.. i guess it's a bye bye now :/
