Has anybody been able to install NETFLIX on their EVO using the recently updated sprint lovers app by thatsmartboy???
[EVO 4G General] whatsitsnamenow:
Netflix does not work currently period. Doesn't matter what rom you are using.
[EVO 4G General] HTCEVO2981:
Thanks... I noticed that once I did a lil more research
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
Um, it works on my phone, it just wont work on unsupported phones and gingersense.
[EVO 4G General] jimisdad:
Until Netflix updates the app it only works on pure gingerbread roms like decks(not HTC sense roms with gb update) or you can do like I did and go back to froyo until the devs or Netflix finds a fix :)
[EVO 4G General] HTCEVO2981:
Thanks I just flashed back to froyo... im ok... I guess ill just wait for the evo 3d
[EVO 4G General] jimisdad:
So word on the street is we get a new update on 6/20 that fixes the Netflix app and the voicemail bug some are having. Hopefully they throw some new sense our way...... Yeah right. Lol

1. How can i enable the dialpad keytone during call? i tried it on speaker and it doesn't work..

2. why when filming on 1080p the video is very "zoomed" ? is there any way to change it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
2) afaik no
[HTC EVO 3D] Zori:
So I got wind of the fact that you can still possibly get a full upgrade even with just a partial upgrade. Now my favorite part of my Evo 4G is easily playing Super Nintendo games with my classic controller.. almost to the point that I think it might even be a dealbreaker for me getting the Evo 3D. Any news on if the bluetooth will be functional this time around or if there are any new 3rd party controllers that work?
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
Way to early to know that for sure.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
I'm under the impression that peripheral devices are honeycomb 3.1
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
HTC Sense has a weird bluetooth stack that didn't allow the wiimote applications or bluetooth mice to work. I believe that's what the OP is referring to, since an Evo 4G with CM7 on it can run wiimote or a bluetooth mouse/keyboard, but not with sense.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
Ah my mistake. I thought he was referring to all these people using usb controllers

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] .OmEgA:
Hey guys, just getting into theming and got.a few questions. I've been around the block more than a few times with skining, designing and all. Use to own and run a rather large sized graphics forum and skined god knows how many skins for ipb and vb boards. So I thought to myself that theming my phone should not be any different, just minus the html and css.

Now for my questions

filename.9.png, I take it that these images are ones that are tiled, correct? And is the ".9.png" is something that the system sees and says, "ok this needs to tile this way" or is it an actual file extension? If so how does one handle them in photoshop?

Thanks in advanced :)

[Thunderbolt General] swamp2:
I'm in San Diego, 4G area. After all of the threads (on various forums) about the OTA update, and after checking periodically, I see there is finally one available to me. They delay from when the first folks posted about this until now is quite odd. Given the reboot issues (even if that is based on some local specifics to some towers only) I am hesitant to install this. In the window where you can download the OTA there is no practical information about what is in the update. Just FYI I am not rooted and have the original 2.2.1 OS that came with my phone.

-What update is this?

-What specifically does it contain?

-Is there any data loss, programs added or removed?

-Do some settings need to be reconfigured after installing this?

Thanks much.
[Thunderbolt General] Jrocker23:
Just a question.

If you have the original software on the phone then you are talking about the first update(mr1) being sent to you now correct?

If you mean MR2, we havent seen any info that it has been officialy released yet...
[Thunderbolt General] swamp2:
Sounds pretty clear this is MR1. What does that stand for?

Has the random reboot issue been fixed?

Any idea why some got MR1 weeks to a month+ ago and it just now got to me in San Diego?
[Thunderbolt General] Mustang02:
MR1 is maintenance release 1. The update should have been pushed to everyone weeks ago.
[Thunderbolt General] Jrocker23:
The reboots have been fixed with the MR2 update from what Im reading.

Why you are getting the first update so late, I don't know. It may be possible that Verizon stopped the updates due to rebooting and then when they knew which devices it was ok to send it too, they sent it to yours. Just my guess though..
[Thunderbolt General] crazed_z06:
For the longest time I couldnt get the MR1 update.. Im also here in the San Diego Area. When Id check for update on 4G, I'd get a "SERVICE UNAVAILABLE" message. I found a post on another board that reccomended setting the phone to 1X and then checking for update. That work, but it took an hour to download lol.

Maybe Verizon finally got off their ass and fixed it so the update would pull down over 4G here.
[Thunderbolt General] ANGERisMYgift:
Personally I never had issues with the mr1 update but alot of people did have a random reboot issue after downloading it. It doesn't really improve anything so you may be better off waiting for mr2, or rooting and updating to mr2 and gingerbread... Which by the way is awesome
[Thunderbolt General] swamp2:
You can get MR2 before VZW releases it? Is MR2 = GB? I did not think that was the case. If MR2 is for 2.2 it can't also be for GB?
[Thunderbolt General] mkjellgren:
The MR2 RUU is froyo. The radio included in the MR2 RUU however works with the current gb roms as well as froyo roms based on the MR2 RUU but will not work with froyo roms based on MR1. The MR2 radio appears to be much more stable with respect to reboots than the MR1 radio was. Combine that stability with gb support and you get the awesomeness mentioned above.
[Thunderbolt General] strawnj:
Since I have moved to MR2 my reboots have stopped. I was rebooting 2-3 times a day. I highly recommend getting on MR2.
[Thunderbolt General] tcdroider9999:
I have a week old tbolt. Uprooted and stock. Did manual sw check and ended up downloading it. It is MR1. Started getting random reboot later that day and it continued. Installed leaked MR2 and all is well. Think Verizon left MR1 out there manual download for whatever reason. Hope this helps.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
OK so listen here, I have owned the following device listed below, yes I know I'm crazy LOL, I'm a tech guy and I love to try out everything.

Items owned within the last 2 months.

Ipad

Ipad2

Motorola xoom

Asus Transformer and Dock

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 I/O edition

Nook Color rooted with CM7....

Ok now, I did like every device I did own but something just seemed missing from them all. Out of all if them I will say the Transformer was the best, accept for the sound.

Now on to me owing the HTC Flyer with nice white case and magic Pen, and I will go all out now and say that its the best damn android tablet I have now owned. I love everything about the Flyer, The screen is right up there with the best of them and I think it even looks better then the Ipad2 and transformer screens, viewing angles are tops. The text is so clear and perfect.

Now I have read reviews about the HTC Flyer sounds lacking, honestly I have no Idea what the reviewers are talking about the HTC flyer sounds is amazingly loud and freaking clear sound. So don't read the review about the sound not being good, the HTC flyer sound blows the Transformer speakers out of the water.

Now lets talk about speed, yes speed, With just a single 1.5 ghz core processor this thing seems so much faster the dual core processors, you say how, well do a test for your self,m the web browser has been the best experience out of all the Tablets I have owned. Crazy as it sounds but its super fast.

Now the Pen, yes it may sound like a gimmick but its not and its fun and useful to you in its own right.

Anyway, I hear honeycomb is going to be released for the Flyer, and I will say there's really no need fcor it, I love the Flyer as is, I Give big Kudos to HTC on making and sweet like mobile Tablets, in the end people that's all I wanted was a nice mobile device and The Flyer takes the cake.

I give it a 9 oput of 10.

Don't listen to the reviews, this tab is way underrated.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] xylidine99:
i 100% agree thing is sooo nice...i barely use my laptop anymore
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] JOHNGAETANO:
I have been down a very similar path with tablets. I have tried them all. No doubt about it, the flyer is the best. I truley love this tablet, and actually use itnom a daily basis.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
I love 7" tablets, and this isby far the best I have used. The web browsing is just amazingly fast, can't get enough of the Flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] asoccer345:
It's nice but I still would take a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 or the Limited Edition over it.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Renegade360:
That's why I sold my Tegra 2 tablet and still have my flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MichaelW2608:
about the processor

A 1.5 ghz single core processor will always blow away a 1 ghz dual core processor until applications are optimized for dual core processors. If an application wasn't designed with multi core processors in mind then it is basically 1.5 ghz single core vs. a 1 ghz dual core that will only run on 1 core. Right now there are relatively few applications out there that are actually optimized for the dual core processors, so you rarely see the increase in speed from the tegra2 processor that other tablets have.

I love my HTC Flyer and its wimpy 1.5 ghz processor that I've been reading about in all the reviews that are written by people who don't know what they are talking about ha.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] falconeight:
Its hype don't do it. I owned the tab 10.1 limited sold it bought the flyer returned the flyer bought another limited sold it bought the flyer again. The tab is a nice piece of hardware honeycomb is lacking right now. The flyer is amazing and will develop a cult like following. I prefer it over all tablets right now. Its the small things such as the propriety cable that also takes micro USB, the beaitful screen, pen is really useful, size and weight are prefect, and it takes a micro sd cards to expand storage. I have a 32gb SD card and its awesome.

I don't want honeycomb on it unless its just as functuional as it is now.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
I agree with all you wrote about the Flyer. Before I buy my, I also read the reviews and was afraid that it was a little bit slow, because every review note the single core CPU and that it is slower than the dual core tablets.

I thought the tester not only under impress from the ipad hype but really test and feal it. But it compare the Flyer with many other devices, also the (reported) fast ones like the ipad 2. And in all my tests the Flyer was much faster and react directly.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
So sure? Okay, mathematical is 2 x 1 bigger then 1.5 and also in applications which make many calculations but a tablet is not a calculator and not use as one but mainly a user interface and here it depends only on the OS and the one for ipad and honeycomb are both optimized. But in an OS you haven't so much use in a dual core system.

Only in some games you will have an advantage. This is the same here as by other devices and PCs where the advantage from a dual core in normal daily use is also limited.

So, don't expect that one day the dual core are much faster...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MichaelW2608:
Mathematically it doesn't matter until the application is written for multi threaded processing. Or parallel processing, whatever you'd like to call it. Once those applications are optimized you will see a speed different in the performance of processing intensive applications. The few that are out right now are mostly games. And if you are in the market for a gaming device, I don't think most people buy a 7 inch tablet that comes with true pen support.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MrHooper:
I'm really very happy about this thread. I haven't tried many tablets, so I have little to compare. I have messed with a friend's eee Transformer, and it's ok, but I think the build quality is kind of poor, and the tegra2 processor is slower than my flyer... as mentioned above. In real-world performance, we were both playing back 720p mkvs in Mobo Player... his stuttered occasionally enough to be annoying. The flyer never had a hiccup. I'll take the 1.5ghz proc over the tegra2 any day. The form factor is also really great as well. I do look forward to honeycomb on it, just for Google's Video Chat.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
again, what matters to me is the size and performance, and out of all the tablets I mention I owned, the flyer kicks all there butts.

I mean all I hear is about all the other tablets screens, let me tell you the flyer's screen is better the all of them, I know some will say "yeah your saying that because I own the flyer", No really the flyer's screen is flat out no pun intended "Quietly Brilliant". Viewing angles are best I have seen, even better theh the ipad2 and Asus.

The battery is great too. It has lasted much linger then the Xoom I owned and the Transformer. Asus says the transformer has 9.5 hours, I beg to differ, my battery on the Asus tab alone without the dock was dying in just about 6 hours ion full charge.

I'm still learning with the magic pen, well that's what I call it. Ans its just an awesome feature,

I will go on record again and say this, I don't know what some of these guys reviewing are saying about the speakers, the Speaks on the flyer are freaking tops for me. It is right up there with the xoom's speakers which is noticed to be the best. I say the Flyers speakers are one of the best!

I think people just give bad reviews to give them. I'm unbiased and I think the flyer is a complete WIN, best tablet of 2011 bar none, and of course this is all my opinion. I just don't want people passing this thing up until they own one or at least use it for a day, I'm telling you a day with the flyer and all opinions will change.

Bottom Line GREAT JOB HTC...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
I think the main problem with people taking a dive with the HTC flyer is the lack of developer support. I was going to pick one up and I heard that there's just too little support for the device :(. I think that's why people get the galaxy tab 10.1 cause even if it's not a great product out of the box, dev's make it a really great device when they work their magic.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
really, what does the great support does the galaxy tab have.

I'm not paying $500 to $600 for a device with no Micro Sd card support, so IMO galaxt tab =Possible Fail.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
Well, first off it almost instantly acquired root access... and actually the 8.9 will be a bigger hit than the 10.1 I think.. no sd card is kinda fail but the 8.9 will have sd support and people seem to like that size. Samsung has always had a great track record for developer support, galaxy tab 7', galaxy S lines etc. I'll probably pick up the flyer to test it out properly for the 14 days, but I played with it for about 40 minutes and I just really disliked the little hiccups in the launcher =/, but I think I should have a proper few days before I make my final decision
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] falconeight:
I agree the 8.9 will be a success, but honeycomb still is crap right now.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
Well the 8.9 will be nice I bet, but with still no SD card support, and it being already confirmed by Samsung that the 8.9 will have cheaper screen, sorry I will still stil with my flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
Well, I keep reading it will include sd card support. If there's no sd support, I'm just going to buy the eee pad slider when it comes out this summer. If the 8.9 does have sd support, I'll be going with the 8.9, but I'm still going to pick up a flyer today and run it through it's paces. Who knows, I might fall in love with it :D.

sidenote: Is launcherpro compatible with tablets? If it is, that'll fix the issue of having to stick with the sense launcher :P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
thing is great..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Wobblin30:
I tend to agree. I had a Xoom and tried my damndest to like Honeycomb but it seemed like something was missing and the lag was a real downer. As for the Flyer, the only thing I would like to see from Honeycomb is optimized tablet apps, a new market and YouTube.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] falconeight:
True exactly how I felt with honeycomb. Hopefully htc can make it work though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Maedhros:
Like I have said Several times... Had HTC released this @ the same time as the Desire HD I would have picked it up in a heart beat...

But now with Dual Cores + Iphone 5 comming out around the block... I think i'd rather wait.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
why are you compairing this to the phones?

If you wanna tablet then the Flyer is great. Comparing to phones is just not fair, or no comparison period. The 1.5 ghz processor has preformed better then and dual core processor tablet I owned against the Flyer including the Ipad2.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MichaelW2608:
Agreed. At work I use a Galaxy Tab 10.1 developer model for testing. My Flyer makes it look bad.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lovethyEVO:
I like this thread. It hasn't derailed too far off topic and into flaming as fast as the evo threads do.

I was wondering this as well. I don't own a flyer but I preordered the htc evo view (which is basically the flyer plus 4g if I'm not mistaken).

My research has shown that the evo view will be running 2.3 with a sense version optimized for tablets...whatever that means. And then honeycomb when it is available for 7 inch tablets.

My question is has anyone tried using launcher pro on their flyer?

I don't doubt the performance of the flyer as this will be my very first tablet (yes, very first) that I am willing to purchase. My son has the ipad2 because of his autism (that he got free) and I didn't even have the urge to use it even after playing with it for an hour or so.

Can't wait to get my tab next week. Hopefully the view will be a bit different to root than the flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] falconeight:
If you are stuck on numbers and 1ghz dual core then don't get it. If you are actually interested in the every day use and performance then get it. THe blackberry playbook has a dual core get that I heard its amazing ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aartvv:
I use my flyer for two weeks now and its great!Before the flyer i hat the samsung galaxy tab which also was a good device,but the flyer is so much faster!

Launcher pro works fine on the flyer.The only thing that make me use sense is that the size of the letters in the facebook and twitter widget is realy small.I ve tried to change it in to bigger ones but i didnt succeed.Also the icons in the dock are very small.Icons on the homescreen are small to but you can make them bigger with the desktop visualizer app.If these few problems could be solved i defenitly would use launcher pro.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
I'm pretty sure 80% of the people buying tablets aren't concerned about developer support. They are concerned about form factor and price. For most people this is still a new market and many won't understand the feature differences between the devices.

I love my Flyer. I understand and appreciate the benefits of specialized pen support. In a few more months / years more 2nd and 3rd generation tablet users may also see the benefits. Until then the Flyer will lose out to other brands just based on price.

I'm looking forward to rooting the device so I have more control over the device. But I'm not holding my breath for a CM port. And have resorted to relying on HTC for support of the products specialized pen support.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nxtwrld:
FYI: just tested Launcher Pro - works great....

I still like the Sense experience - but Launcher Pro can run in 6 col / 6 rows (running really smooth) increasing the launcher real estate... I will probably give it a go....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] darkknight1114:
Great point. If HTC is smart in the near future and compromise and just lower the Flyer 16gb to say $399, the Flyer IMO would well FLY of shelves, this tab needs to be in more people hands and I know THC does a like of TV promoted for the phones, they need to start promoted the Flyer more more in adds on TV. I know I sound like a homer, but really, after owing ever tablet on the market as you can see in my first post, the Flyer amazes me every time I use it, I love this thing.

I prefer the 7" inchers to the 10 in inchers and the Flyer is really the complete package. The screen is beautiful and to me the performance its just tops and unmatched even as a single cor processor.

Bottom line I love Flyer, the pen and the whole package.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lovethyEVO:
The evo view is priced at $399 for 32GB 3g/4g/wifi on 2 year contract with sprint. I agree with you that the marketing for these two devices just doesn't seem to be as strong as others...almost non-existent.

I'm hoping I get the scribe pen free with my activation. :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kkinder:
Yeah I agree. And about the dual core issue: the only thing I've noticed is that the Tetra tablets have consistently smooth animation, presumably because the app can be running and the OS will use the extra core for animation. But in terms of real use cases, like video or web, the Flyer screams blazingly fast. In fact, the browser is comparable to my 4 core 2.8ghz laptop.

The sound I find better of you are either holding the device with your hands in landscape against the speakers or putting it on a flat surface. It's like doing so amplifies rather than muffled the sound, a phenomena I'm chalking up to HTC engineering. :)

Definitely agree. I love my Flyer. Best tablet ever. I hope HTC isn't deterred by the negative reviews.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
I agree on that, too. HTC has been marketing their phones heavily for the past couple years now. Yet marketing for the Flyer/EVO View has been non-existent as far as I've seen. With HTC making a good name for themselves in smartphones among the masses, as well as tech-heads, it would seem a no-brainer for them to spend a few marketing dollars, and get this thing selling. Marketing is such a huge factor, as we all know.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kkinder:
They produce some video ads but it's the carriers that spend money on TV ads and heavy consumer marketing. The Flyer has no carrier so the ads they put up on YouTube just stay there.

Wait for Sprint to market the Evo View 4g. Then you'll see ads.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmniNut:
Have you purchased the blackberry playbook? How do you think it compares to the playbook? Cause I got the playbook and returned it but it was because of manufacturing problems - the tablet itself was brilliant. If you've owned the playbook can you give a quick little comparison? Thanks
