Sorry, I don't know if you are type of Mr Average Joe. I thought that you do understand "container" (MKV/MP4) vs "encoding" (H264).

Anyway, to change container from MKV to MP4 is not difficult and it does not need long time to finish. Usually it is just a couple of minutes or so.

e.mote user has put a very nice script to do that:

It is different device. The user experience is pretty much different.

Netbook / laptop is not designed to use while you are lying down, or hold in one hand.

Netbook / laptop is not designed to use for touchscreen user interface.

Netbook / laptop always has a keyboard and pointer.

For that alone will set both apart.

You cannot substitute laptop with a tablet.

Well, you could (why not), but again the user experience is different.

I bet when you are using tablet, you will still use laptop to ... type this reply for example :)

PRICE is NOT the most important here, but user experience.

If you don't take that in mind, and you still think that by buying a tablet will replace your laptop, you will let yourself down.

I know this because I actually own a tablet (that magical iPad2).

It is a nice device, but it is no replacement of a laptop / netbook.

About the price ... hmmm how much did you buy your netbook?

Oh I see, you mentioned couple of time that in your country, everything gadget is expensive, correct? For example, the iPad you said can be up to $1000.

Then, the problem is not the "tablet price", but your country price point.

For example, the ASUS TF, it is only $399 USD (in Europe might be 399 euro [370 GBP at http://www.clove.co.uk).

There you go, that's not expensive compare to a decent netbook.

If you have problem with price, try to get it from US (or Singapore / Hong Kong).

Ask friend or family to buy one and ship it to you. Or use some kind of mediator/forwarder service (US based company who will buy it for you and send it to your non-US address). For sure, that will be much cheaper than $1000 iPad.

Note: I am not rallying to encourage you to buy current tablet. No. But, I just want to help you think about your idea of buying a tablet because you want to replace your netbook / laptop :)

Watching movie is just "one usage scenario". There are others, which notebook is still better than tablet (long typing, full web browsing, photo / video management, etc.).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
Yes... the point is that device that is not cheap and is being advertised as a media consuming device. I expect it to do just that.

Might get useful if I will brake and buy one ;-)

I should mention that most of the tabs are great and probably a lot of users is more than happy with it... but I am writing from my (subjective) point of view and have my own needs in mind.

User experience is one thing... but has not much to do with what OS or a device is capable of. Tablets with windows 7 are opposite example in terms of what they can do and user experience - I am looking to replace my netbook with the device that can do both. Otherwise replacing it now would be an excess (if it is correct word). I mean I could do it but it would not be reasonable.

Laptop (especially if it is needed for work) probably not (yet) but netbook? I do not see why not, at least in my case. I got Asus 1201N and use it as an entertainment device, nothing more.

But it is not very convenient... heavy, limited battery life, etc.

On the other hand when I take it away from home (i travel by car) I always have few movies to watch, netflix to acces, hulu for free, e-mail and web. And that is what I need from future tablet.

No, I am actually using my desktop in the mornings - it is easier with coffee than netbook (something underneath as it gets hot) and bed :-)

Very true... but UE (user experience for the future reference) is nothing on its own. If you have limited web access/usability can't do what you want, when you want how long will it be enough.

I mean... if you cant watch the movie... how long will you be happy and entertained just by changing the panels on the Honeycomb homescreen? Great UE, 100 time better than keyboard and mouse... but on its own it is useless and the fact is that netbook can do a bit more. I am not saying it is better (as an overall) but I am looking at this (as I said) with my needs in mind.

No... just give me GT 10.1 (or similar) that will play all video formats "out of the box" (with access to hulu and netflix client), has 3G and 10h batt life and I am getting rid of my netbook as I do not need it anymore :-)

iPad/2 definitely not... it requires you to actually have a computer :-) Crazy!!!! (how else will you sync it with itunes). Tablet should be able to be a stand alone device. If one only reads book, some emails and surfs the web 9consuming content) why would you need a computer?

Approx. 330 British pounds.

No... it is not... but I still need to have both :-) I do not want to. Instead of having to carry less it is actually more...

Well I need tablet for pure entertainment in my spare time - that is it. For all the rest I got BIG PC.

So.. once few bugs of the system (this I do not mind that much) will go away and usability will improve I will get one. For now I have to wait :-(

And after that... if next generation has 20 cores... do not care - it will not play movie better or I will not read email faster :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gogol:
It is cheap for what it can do :)

User experience as a whole. User experience = the experience of the user when "using" the device. OS, UI, hardware form factor, they all part of user experience!

User experience will sucks if the OS is too slow and bloated ...

User experience will sucks if the device is too heavy to hold (for tablet) ...

And so on ...

AHA! There you go ... What you are looking for is a portable media player :)

I was in the same fence in the past when I was looking for a "reading device".

You know, a device that I can use to read. Simple, eh?

Not exactly :) Not all "eReader" can read and view all kind of e-book formats!

That's for a start. Then think, why it does not have web browser ... hmmm, why it does not have file manager ... hmmm .... Ah crap, wth, eReader is not a reading device!

"All" is a bit of stretch, to be honest :)

SoC is not only the main factor, a good "media player app" is also important.

To type long email and forum reply:) LOL!

Well ok, you can buy BT keyboard for that.

iOS is dude, I know. Rumor said iOS5 will have OTA sync. But most probably it will require iTunes still.

Yes, you must wait ...

That's the BEST situation for you, right now.

Even me, I have doubt on GTab 10.1.

But, I need NEW TOY :) While waiting the ultimate tablet (like yours).

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsandroid:
Hey!

I have some issues with the stock browser. I have set the user agent with about:debug to desktop. After This it works for a short while, but then it suddenly starts showing pages in mobile/android User agent. When i then go to settings the user agent option is gone, and i have to use about:debug to enable the user agent option (its still on desktop When i do this, so its not reset.).

My problems started when i upgraded to oxygen 2.1.2, After a complete wipe with Amon Ra recovery.

I Have tried factory reset of browser settings. I have also upgraded to oxygen 2.1.3 with only cache and dalvik wipe, bit the problem still persist.

Am i the only one experiencing this? Should i wipe once more?

User agent works in Dolphin browser, but i love the clean and fast stock browser so i dont want to switch..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TMSsecret:
user agent option was originally a hack in oxygen stock browser. It's removed afterwards to keep rom clean. I think you need to use an other browser for proper use of desktop mode in oxygen.

I installed the khalpowers' MIUI ROM successfully, however I didn't know how to view all my apps.

For example: I use search function and I know my phone have Facebook Application. But I didn't see it on all the screen pages. So, how can I see that how many apps I can have/use.

Thank you very much. I'm new, so I can't not post new thread in the development box.

Most people that I know that have the EVO don't really care what version of Android is on the phone. Seems to be the only ones who are really gun ho about GB are the people here. Either was I'm getting the 3D at launch So **** you guys I'm getting my Gingerbread man!

[HTC Desire S] GuestK00466:
hi all.

I've had Locale installed for a couple of years with a location based condition to modify volume and wi-fi connections. It's normally been very precise and very timely in responding to location changes.

In the past 2-3 weeks, Locale seems to be missing most location changes. I've installed Juice Defender Free and a couple of other apps - I've uninstalled all of the "new apps" but Locale still seems to be struggling to change according to my location.:confused:

The main problem seems to be when my Desire S goes into screen lock...it's as if my phone's connectivity stops. Sometimes Locale catches up but sometimes I have to restart my phone in order to trigger a location based change. :confused:

Could this be something caused by Juice Defender? I seem to remember that it can cause phones to disable connectivity whilst in lock screen.

Or perhaps has anyone else encountered problems following a Locale update or on the Desire S...?

Any suggestions or thoughts on what's causing Locale to play up?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I can see it does or at least it is supposed to. Quite possible that it doesn't support everything though.

NO, the sim slot is for their LTE network.

Actually I do believe the xoom can work on GSM. I just got mine and they show it as a global device. And I only know of a few countries who use cdma.
[Xoom General] edsoncfgarcia:
You're right, my friend.

I live in Brazil and here 3g network is GSM. furthermore, Brazilian Xoom, model MZ605, is the only one that works on any type of 3g network.

Unfortunately, we don`t have HC3.1 yet. And I flashed a Verizon 3G image on my Xoom and lose my 3g connectivity. Now, I`m trying to identify if there is any other Xoom model that works on 3g GSM network, so I'll be able do reflash my Xoom to get back my connectivity.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EwanG:
So I've been using Sipdroid and GV for my phone calls and Text Messages which is a happy thing since I have a portable 4G wifi spot with a 16 hour external battery. However, it is a pain to see the "Emergency Calls Only" message when that really isn't the issue. Also concerned about the amount of battery being drained by "Cell Standby Service" when I'm not using that.

Is there a setting somewhere to change, or is it time for me to finally root my N1 as I've done my Xoom and G-Tablets? I'd prefer NOT to root just because I'm worried I'll screw up my Sipdroid settings :)

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
Not sure I understand you want to turn off the emergency calls only notification but you are not using a sim you have an external wifi hotspot and are using GV for calls, is this right?

If so then why not just turn airplane mode on and then just turn wifi back on, that way the phone won't look for cell service but will still be connected to wifi.
