I've compared it to a blank Web browser on an iPhone 4 and the brightness and clearness of the whites don't even come close on this Mesmerize but I know the Galaxy S's screen is just as bright as the iPhone 4 screen, so I doubt it's an AMOLED issue. I feel it's a software issue.

I've made sure the brightness is up full so I believe I'm doing all I can in that respect.
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
Research voodoo color. You will see it's a known issue on some screens. Personally I don't see it.
[Samsung Mesmerize] King Mustard:
I don't see a version available for the Mesmerize.
[Samsung Mesmerize] King Mustard:
I only knew about the Color thing after you mentioned it and I then said it doesn't appear available for the Mesmerize.

This is ridiculous.

There are roughly 5 different voodoo kernels available for froyo. A good place to start would be the stickied thread about kernels in the dev forum.

Hi guys,

does any UK/Euro peeps know of any Skinomi retailers on this side of the planet? their carbon fiber Full body skins looks awesome. I have a screen portector but i would love to slap a carbon fiber back on my TF and call it a day!

any help would be great..and yes, I already spoke to my 'friend' Google!

:)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
I would just contact the Skinomi guys and request a quote for shipping costs...

It looks like they ship worldwide from their website.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] JLHdk:
Yes 6 $ for international shipping, pretty ship
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] 5hamz:
thanks guys...

So a buddy of mine wants me to root his Evo and wants a custom rom&kernel. I personally don't own a Evo so I don't have the slightest clue on what is stable and running good. I've look throughout the forum and there's too many choices to choose from so I'd like to get some suggestions from you guys/gals. I'd like to get him on a ginger-sense rom that's stable and a compatible kernel. Please leave your suggestions and thank you in advance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If you want a ginger sense, then try the kingdom port by virus. And none of them are truly 'stable yet' but it can be used as a daily rom, stock kernel included is decent.

Otherwise, I recommend CM& + Tiamat kernel.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xchompondizx:
Agreed :cool:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cares:
If your friend wants you to help him root...chances are he isn't very technical. I would stick with a ROM that's very stable.

Cyanogen, MiK Froyo or Myn's Warm are good choices.

If you want to leave it nearly "stock" then Sprint Lovers or Fresh.

[G Tablet General] tenet420:
Thanks for all the great posts.

I noticed that the textures in the room ( the walls and floors ), as well as the textures on the planet and moon are visible when you run the test in HC. This is interesting to me because on more than one tablet running Ginger I never saw textures on these tests. I have seen them in the Froyo builds, and I assume this is because of HW acceleration.

Is the partial HW acceleration that is working in HC resposible for the textures showing?

Anyone else experience the same results ( no room or planet textures ) when running Quadrant on Vegan Ginger?

Thanks

I'm working on a Honeycomb optimized bible app for my new Transformer, and I was wondering if anyone knows a good source for bibles in sqlite format that are free to distribute. I believe the KJV is public domain in most countries, so that will probably be my starting point. I also want to include the option for supporting a number of different translations though, so I'd prefer to find a common table format that I wouldn't have to modify. I found a few versions available here, but I'm not really happy with the format. Anybody know any other sources?

I'm hoping to have at least a proof of concept version together within the next few days. If anyone is interested, I can post it here for people to try out and give feedback.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gary13579:
May I suggest using a different method? Storing an entire book in an sqlite database doesn't seem smart.

I'd try a text based approach, one verse per line, with an sqlite index used for quick navigation and lookups. this also allows for much better compression.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Thanks for the reply. Could you explain why using a database isn't a good idea? It seemed like a good idea to me, and every existing bible program I've seen uses that approach. Could you explain your proposal in a little more detail? Are you suggesting a plain txt file to store the whole thing?

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding something, I don't actually have any real education in any kind of development. Just an enthusiastic amateur :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jideay:
I'd be most definitely interested. I've used PocketBible for years, but there was nothing really for Droid. So I bought AcroBible, but the interface was clumsy and adding books was really jacked. So lately I've been using Tecarta. It has an easy to use interface and is cheap. I bought my TF because I do a lot of Bible teaching and thought it would be easier to handle than the paper stuff. So what I'd really like is a side by side arrangement, where I could place my own notes (several pages per class) and on the other side have an independently scrolling Bible, much like Tecarta's split screen for viewing two translations at once.

I'd be more than happy to be a beta tester for you.

John 3:30
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
That's basically exactly what I'm planning. One thin fragment to display a list of available books, and the rest of the screen split evenly between the bible content (verses) and a notes pane. I'll mock up a UI demo first since I don't want to start too much work on the behind the scenes stuff until I decide on a bible container/format. I'll post the UI demo for comments on usability, etc.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fatbas202:
I would very much like to Beta test for you as well. I'm currently using the Latin Vulgate bible from the Market and while I like it well, I'd like to have multiple translations (possibly Greek as well?) at my fingertips.

While I wish I could help with the programming side, I can definitely commit to thoroughly testing for you.

Best of luck!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
This is why I really need to find some common format. Nothing would change on the code side to display different translations, you just point it at a different source and everything works correctly.

I was kind of hoping I could use the databases that the Youversion bible stores on your SD card, but they are encrypted (understandably). It would be great to have a 3rd party source (ie, not me) to handle licensing, distribution, and format control for a wide variety of bibles/translations. It's not looking like that is going to work out though. The search continues. In the meantime, UI stuff.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] HeisRisen:
Youversion ftw
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Youversion is awesome on my phone, not so much on my TF. I'm sure they will ultimately develop a tablet friendly version, and with the wide variety of translations they offer I'm sure it will be my go-to app eventually.

That said, I thought this would be a fun project to learn how to use fragments.

I found a couple sources for bibles in XML format as well. I'll have to do some performance testing on those vs sqlite based bibles.

Unfortunately I haven't gotten any time to play with this yet, and I'm going to be out of town all weekend (hog hunting then working on a house my wife and I are building). At this rate, youversion might have something available before me! ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gary13579:
Sorry for the late response. The problem with storing it all in the DB is it will be slow. Databases aren't designed to store massive amounts of text like an entire book.

Imagine trying to display an entire chapter (or whatever they are called in the bible). You'd have to do SELECT * FROM verses WHERE chapter='1' ORDER BY verse ASC. SQLite then needs to read megabytes of text and send it back to you, which is going to be slow.

With a DB + flat file approach, you can do something like: SELECT line FROM chapters WHERE id='1' -- this would get you a single number, which points to a line number in bible.txt. Then if you wanted chapter 1 verse 5, you take that line number, add 5, then read that line from the file. This should be much faster than storing the entire book in a database, and allows for dead simple language support (can have kjv.txt, niv.txt, etc).

I would offer to help further with the project, but am a strict atheist. I do wish you all the luck with the project, though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Thanks for the input. That would allow the flexibility I'm looking for, but would probably require me to set up all the translations myself. I was hoping to use some of the existing resources that are out there, which seem to consist of sqlite or xml.

XML might work OK on a desktop, but I'm not sure the performance will be at all acceptable on a mobile device. I was looking at possibly using SAX to parse the XML bibles I found. We'll see.

Anyway, thanks for the responses :)

Olivetree's products do work...I'm using an NASB w/Strongs. Its fairly customizable but I don't use the integrated notes or anything.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Got a little time to work on this over the last couple days. Basic concept is running. Any comments on the overall layout? I was going to go with a 3 column approach where the chapter list replaces the book list when you select a book, but I think this 4 column layout works better (books | chapters | verses | notes). This allows the fastest possible navigation, and the additional chapters column is really skinny so you don't lose much space for the rest of the content.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Things are coming along nicely. I still have a lot of work to do on the notes section, but the bible portion is basically done. Very happy with the performance too... its fast :)

If anyone wants to test it out let me know. Otherwise I'll be making the first release after the notes section is functional.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goalweiser:
Count me in please. I would love to test things out for you as well.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] onfire4g05:
Hmm, I'm almost positive I opened up their SQLite databases a long while back without issue. It may have been on my iOS device at the time though, so it could be different with Android.

Either way, for a standard I would checkout AndBible. Several months ago I thought about trying to get into Android development to make a Strong's Concordance, but when I found AndBible gave it up. They use all public domain stuff hosted on some website that you can download.

I have a MySQL database of NIV, NKJV, NLT, KJV, and a few others. If you're interested PM me. They DO NOT contain formatting markers though, which may make it useless in a book form (I sure wouldn't want to read a Bible without proper formatting :-)), and I'm not sure about the licensing or anything as I got them free from a piece of open source software and don't use them for anything but personal use. KJV is license free though.

I'd also be interested in checking out what you have. :-)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Maybe they figure that iOS devices are more secure since they don't really provide file system access or removable storage. The ones that were downloaded by the Android app seemed to have the scripture fields encrypted. I could view the table structure, see the names of books, etc... but the verses themselves weren't readable.

I'll check that out, thanks.

I have personal (hard)copies of the NIV and NKJV, so would definitely be interested in the databases for personal use. I really don't want to get involved in licensing, so if I distribute anything it will probably be the KJV. If my program is compatible with external resources it shouldn't be an issue though.

I'm actually not all that concerned about the formatting markers at this point. For a reading program I agree they're important, but I'm currently viewing this as more of a quick study/lookup/note-taking kinda thing. Speed and ease of use are my biggest goals. There are already so many good programs that handle longer reading sessions well. Hope that's not too disappointing. Long term I'd like to format everything properly, but I have a lot of other features planned that will come first.

I was going to wait until I've got the notes section done, but if anyone wants to play around just for fun I could go ahead and post it. I like using the Market since it makes handling updates super easy, but I don't think this is really ready for the general user yet. Maybe I'll post the apk here for the time being.

Edit - apk is attached. It's best to just ignore the notes section for now, the current setup is just a textview as a placeholder.

*** The bible.db.zip MUST be unzipped at "/sdcard/Bibles/". If you don't have the database saved at /sdcard/Bibles/bible.db this will not work.

Let me know what you think, but keep in mind this is still very early.

Edit2 - oh, and take a look at the landscape vs portrait layouts. At first I had the notes section below the verses when in portrait but I took it out for the time being. It worked fairly well though, so I'll make it a user selectable option in the future. Let me know your thoughts either way.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
Took a shortcut and used code from the Google Notepad example to fill out my 'notes' section. I think it works good enough for a first release, but I'll probably have to re-do it to accomodate my long-term plans. Version 0.1 will probably be released as a beta on the market within the next couple days.

Anybody have any comments on the bible section? Anybody want to test the full market version before release? If so, I need quick feedback or its useless.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bedoig:
New thread opened for the release of the app on the market. Please make any requests / comments there.

[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Steinheil has their Ultra-Clear screen protectors available for the DROID Charge. I just ordered one and I'm hoping it works out better than the ZAGG Invisibleshield did on my Fascinate. See here
[Verizon Droid Charge] Moonfire:
I put their incredible shield plus the ultracrystal screen protector on my Fascinate, and absolutely love it. The tacky feeling around the phone is nice for grip (especially with games) but still can slide in my pocket. And of course, the screen protector itself is smooth as glass.

Nice to see it coming out so soon for the Charge, it was weeks before the Fascinate's was available.
[Verizon Droid Charge] -Pagan-:
I swear by Steinheil. I love the way they glide onto the surface, no hassle and no bubbles.
[Verizon Droid Charge] randywintle:
Which version have people tested? I see they have 3 types.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I got the ultra-crystal as I didn't want any distortion to the screen and don't really care about fingerprints as they can always be wiped off.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I know I'm double posting, but I wanted to bump this to share. I got my screen protector in the mail yesterday afternoon and was able to put it on my phone last night. The ultra-crystal protectors are THICK, much thicker than I was expecting. Installation was fairly simple, didn't have to turn my phone off or anything, which is nice coming from ZAGG. There is no distortion to the screen at all, and you can barely tell that I even have a screen protector on it. I unfortunately got a small piece of dust that I can't get off at the bottom edge :( and that is the only place you can really see that something is covering the screen. Will see how it holds up over the next week or two, now that I'll be a little less careful since the screen won't get scratched.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Delicate Donut:
My friend ordered two of these for us and got them today. I just got off the phone with him and he says he loves it! I have to wait until tuesday for him to bring me mine :o
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I love it too, and the areas that weren't fully pressed down due to what I thought was dust disappeared, so I guess it just took a little time to fully fasten itself. The fit is almost 100% matched to the glass, so you really have to look to see that it's even there.
[Verizon Droid Charge] robstamack:
Looks like they are temporarily out of the Ultra Crystal. I was going to pull the trigger and that option is gone...

Edit:Well, it looks like the full-body shields ship with the UC screen protector, if you wanted full coverage.
[Verizon Droid Charge] robstamack:
Quick question: do these shields cover or interfere with the front-facing camera? From the illustrations, it looks like the shield covers the front camera.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
It covers the camera, but the protector is completely clear, and although I haven't taken any pictures with the FFC, the image displayed on the screen when using it doesn't show any distortion.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jojomcdougal:
They're sold out of their stock on sgpstore.com but I grabbed one off Amazon (sold by SGP Store, stocked by Amazon) yesterday with free shipping (got a compatible HDMI cable and TPU case with it to make $25) and it shipped today.
