This. I think they'll need to tap into the nvidia hardware more to enable better video performance. It's interesting to note that they added NEON support for CPUs that support it(ours doesn't afaik). How much those instructions will help I don't know.
[Acer Iconia A500] dhruvmp:
Something to look forward to in flash 11.1 I'm sure;)...
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
No, I mean nvidia will have to work with the manufacturers to include better optimized kernel/user code for the tegra to take advantage of the dual core and the graphics hardware better. Hopefully nvidia has 3.1 as well and is adding their pieces to the pie as we speak.

a big drop in performance with flash 10.3

I

don't know if anyone sees the same, but for me, adobe flash 10.3 is a lot worse than 10.2.

I am in germany and looked videos on www.golem.de. With 10.2 there have been nearly smooth. Now with 10.3 they become a picture view, no longer video.

(Yes I compared the same videos, coding can't be different.)

I think they broke the nvidea integration and HC was not the focus of this update, but 10.2 was.

My recomandation:

So if you didn't update so far, don't do it!!!!

Retested Flash 10.3; still not better

Hi again,

thanks for the tipps, tried them all.

I think it depends on the video itself.

For some odd reason, the videos in germany tends to be coded in a way, the new Flash 10.3 didn't like.

I mentioned before, all videos on Golem.de are worse, but also on spiegel.de.

I noticed a message box, saying, "This video is not optimized for mobile devices".

Never seen such a message in 10.2. Also on my HTC desire, the videos are worse, and see exactly the same behaviour.

I still see no advantages from 10.2 to 10.3. In 10.2 I never had such messages, and the videos where smooth as well. Now on a few webpages the videos are OK, but most are picture shows.

Is there anybody else how could confirm this? Can't belive I am the only one, seeing this performance drop on two different devices, and nobody else seeing this.
[Acer Iconia A500] GadjetGirl59:
I read that flash10.3 is better with HC 3.1. So you see better performance?
[Acer Iconia A500] FSGuruh:
Flash 10.3 optimized for Android3.1

So far, Acer Iconia has only 3.0.1 HC installed, hopefully in June/Juli there would be an update.

I didn't see such an statement, do you have any reference?

Is there something in Xoom forums?
[Acer Iconia A500] tlg:
NOTE: Please check with your device manufacturer or carrier to ensure you have the latest firmware update for your device. For Android 3 tablet devices, we highly recommend that you update your OS to Android 3.1 to ensure that Flash Player delivers the best experience possible.

[Acer Iconia A500] FSGuruh:
Flash 10.3 was again updated in Market

Hi again,

Adobe flash 10.3 got's an update again (version is still 10.3) but this version is newer now, than the first release 10.3.

Now the videos are as good as before. So you can update now.

Still it's strange you could not see the same effect I have noticed. Also the video playback on the HTC desire improved with this update. The first 10.3 was also worst for this device.

best regards

Andy
[Acer Iconia A500] mrvanes:
I still have many crashes on the volkskrant.nl site, so for me no flash for a while. Hope this will be fixed in 3.1.
[Acer Iconia A500] Eve_pr:
@ Andy

I noted the same with 10.3 version.....and I'm from Puerto Rico. The previous version was working fine, but 10.3 version is a different story. The video appears like bad quality photos. I try installing 11, but same problem here. What version did you installed that worked for you? I know you said 10.3, but the whole number like 10.3.159... I'll appreciated if you reply to this message, 'cause I'm having the same problem and need to view the videos.

...sorry for my bad english.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeoH2102:
Hi all,

I've just struck some massive problems with my GPS. It was working, then I flashed CM7 and now it doesn't work. I've posted a thread on the cyanogenmod forums, but I've decided to make a similar post here in the hope of a quicker resolution!

Here's the process so far...

1. Flashed JS8 from JVK, repartition ticked and all that stuff.

2. Flashed speedmod kernel to get CWM

3. Flashed the CM7 initial kernel file, rebooted and it auto-flashed the CM7 initial update file. All of this went fine and I booted into CM7 with no errors.

4. Tried GPS... no joy. Wouldn't get a lock and I couldn't get Maps to give me accuracy better than 30m... and that only ever lasted about 30 seconds.

5. Decided to flash the latest nightly update (11th May I believe).

6. Tried GPS... still the same.

7. Someone on the CM forums linked me to AngryGPS.apk, so I copied it to my SD card and then moved it to /system/app. Changed the permissions to Owner: Read, Write; Group: Read; Other: Read.

8. Rebooted, hoping to see it fixed... still no joy.

Does anyone know anything I could try? Any help is MUCH appreciated!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billycrf100:
Hello,

I was just about to buy a cheap desktop to run ubuntu. However I thought now that my phone can be overclocked to 1.5 ghz. This makes it easily fast enough to run ubuntu when my hd2 can run ubuntu fast enough. So why couldnt we have ubuntu running on our sgs2 as well as running the phone os through kies or something similar? However we dont have the mhl cable cable but when it is released then webtop would be very useful and save people a lot of money. If you agree then please make a comment so hopefully developers will not feel like it is a waste of time developing it.

Thanks,

Billy

you can produce a working Netflix installation.

I was unable to use either 1.2.1 or 1.2.2 after I installed the x99 2.3.3 stock release (sound with white screen and "go to netflix.com (1005)" error, respectively) and figured I might as well go ahead and try the patch, listed as being the Gingerbread fix. Seems true.

Well, you can always nandroid back... I don't know if you tried the full version or the minimal patch. I also did this on the sense 2.3, not on CM7 (sorry I left that out before).

If you want to try it again, try applying the other patch, whichever you didn't do the first time, and see if that helps. It may not work, though, because of whatever differences exist between the way Sense and AOSP-based roms handle media.

For what it's worth, some people in the patch thread did mention the same symptoms you had, with other video sources failing to work.

Hey guys, hope ur all good. I am considering buying the SGS cuz they put it on sale (333€ is it a good price?) for a brand new SGS. I have a few question thou.

- Is the GPS fixed in the newer SGS? i want to use the GPS like navigator in my car with navigon or copilot or will the SGS give me problem as a navigator in the car?

- I really wanted a led-flash on the camera but the SGS doesnt provide it, is there another way to use the phone like a flashlight? does the screen work like a flashlight?

-Kies...the software program of hell...from what ive been told and reading is that Kies is piece of crap, and i dont intend to root my phone yet i want it all stock (2.3.3) to begin with, can i upgrade my phone via OTA or is it only KIES :(?

i want good call quality, playing some 3d-games, messaging, browsing and checking email and so on..

i can get it for 333€ here where i live in sweden so do u think SGS is worth picking up? I have been watching reviews all the day and i still dont know if i should pick it up or not? whats ur thoughts about this?

if you are in the states just wait for the SGS2, if you are in europe, go buy the SGS2.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMD9:
€333? Prepay I'm assuming? If so it's a good price, costs closer to €470 here.

GPS is working fine in mine, I'm on 2.3.3 (JVB), get's a lock on 8-9 satellites in 5- 8 seconds. I don't really use it much but my brother in law reckons it's great for navigating around Ireland.

You can use the screen as a flashlight but it will never match an LED flash, used to use my X10 mini as a torch, came in very handy.

Kies is a piece of crap, you're going to have to root and use Odin or Heimdall to get the best out of the phone but it's easy to get the hang of, and there's plenty of help to be found on this site. Having said that, you're in Sweden so you can try Kies if you want, JVH (XEE) is available in your region now.

Call quality for me is fine, only problem I have is with my provider, networks been dire lately. Messaging and email are very user friendly and browsing is great ( I use Dolphin HD, but the stock browser's fine if you don't need multiple tabs open).

Plenty of decent 3D games to be had at decent prices, try Gameloft, haven't paid more than €3 for a game and I've gotton some for €2 and got to pick another for free.

In the end you're the one who has to live with the phone so I'd go to a shop and have a play around with one, see what you think.

One thing to keep in mind though, with the SGS 2 coming the original may drop even further in price. I have friends that work in a mobile shop and they were talking to the Samsung rep recently. He told them that Samsung are going to be releasing a 1.4Ghz single core version of the original alongside the SGS 2. Don't quote me, I'm only repeating what I was told, but if it's true then it's bound to drive the price of the original SGS down even further.
