Thanks for the tip. MLB.com's website runs smoother now, which is cool. Haven't tried video but I am skeptical as the flash performance in other videos are pretty much the same in stock.

Nice that it wasn't a burden typing this reply in xda though. :)

But yeah, this needs to be fixed in the stock version.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vikdmon:
Flash performance in Opera 11.1 is worse than stock since its still experimental.

EVerything else in opera is great. perfomance, key input etc.

vevo is the only site that displays 720p videos smooth in stock. The trick is to let it load fully.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xTRICKYxx:
yeah, the trick is to type a letter in, Then tap outside the box, the it wont reset you twice... annoying as hell. does it in xda forum and YouTube.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jjsoviet:
Played with a ton of Galaxy Tabs on display at the mall, and I can confirm that 720p Flash videos straight from YouTube run a bit smoother than my overclocked Transformer. It might be the implementation on the OS or just better Flash compatibility with the SGT. Hell, Adobe or ASUS better fix this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zillah1985:
Just played with a Xoom, same FW and updated flash, and found 720p of the same vid on my transformer was MUCH smoother on the XOOM while the transformer sputtered.

ASUS better fix this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] chatch15117:
asus hasn't responded to my technical inquiry yet after 1 week waiting :(

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Nutsonfire:
I had an Archos before and they had to wait for Adobe to validate the pad to allow flash acceleration. The Xoom did not have flash when it was released didn't it?

Maybe Adobe hasn't validated the Transformer yet, hence no hardware acceleration.

It's pretty stupid considering they all use the same hardware.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mddsd:
I just thought I should let you know that I posted some info about Flash 720p and Transformer in a Swedish forum called Swedroid. This forum has representatives from Swedish Asus answering questions and helping users.

After reading this thread I posted some information in the Swedroid forum and it did not take long before Asus Sweden responded and said that they will forward the information about poor 720p Flash performance to the Asus development team.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zillah1985:
I had one of the Archos gen8s and foolishly waited for some flash fix, but to no avail, it didn't happen.

This better not happen on the Asus. Don't get me wrong, this is a completely different level than my gen8 tablet but flash on this seriously needs to get fixed or I am sending it back. Just knowing the fact it is hampered is just enough...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hesynergy:
as if Asus didn't already know....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Nutsonfire:
Exactly, if it's really working on other tablets like the Xoom or GT, then there is something fishy going on. Hardware is the same...

That's why I posted my Adobe validation story before.

In any case it's not really a big issue for me. I know better tablets will be out soon and this was just another Android tablet (although the best one so far).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
This is probably the root of the problem. The Stage Video module (which is what is responsible for the hardware acceleration) is probably hard coded to detect which tablet is Flash is running on. I would expect that Adobe has not coded the Transformer into the list of tablets that can accelerate video.

I have posted to their technical forum discussing this issue and it has been assigned to their person in charge of Android Flash Player bugs. We'll likely get a response after the holiday weekend.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Canadoc:
If this is true is there a way for rooted users to change their build prop to match a xoom and fool the flash player into working?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vikdmon:
the TF is not certified by Adobe ... yet.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] ewitte:
Do not understand all the hate for the youtube app. If it plays it way better than the browser why not use it? IDK maybe I'm missing something because I rarely use it. I'm offline 90% off the time and it doesn't work because I lack an internet connection.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Because it only plays SD.

_______________________________________________________
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CelticWebSolutions:
are you sure you are correct there? Mine defaults to HD, or at least tahts what teh little green button on it says. If you disable it there is a drop in quality. Does it not play ful hd then?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CelticWebSolutions:
Interesting find there... Lets hope they are quick to get it on teh list then. Typical taht thinsg like the playbook and teh flyer which both came out after the TF are already on there! Obviously better organised manufacturers :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vikdmon:
Yes.. And I also pointed out in my comments on the bug report somebody submitted to adobe, and I was pretty mean about it too. ;-P
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xTRICKYxx:
This is probably the reason why the Transformer sucks at playing Flash. Why Adobe? Why must you forget the Transformer exists?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
You found my bug report :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CelticWebSolutions:
well let's hope they sort it promptly then then :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Daley87:
seriously hope this gets fixed soon, the flash performance is unbearable at the minute, flash is one of the reasons I sold my iPad for an android tablet, also hoping the youtube app gets fixed (force close on machinima vids) and they fix honeycomb to allow for decent fps in portrait mode.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vikdmon:
Machininma vids force close on all hc tablets (asus, xoom,galaxy tab, acer). The only one that works is the ipad ... Google better get their act together
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Diablo67:
I contacted asus and told them about the flash issue and they said that they have had a # of complaints about this and will work on implementing this into their next update.Mines a little choppy on some videos,but most play pretty smooth.I'm using the hulufied version of flash 10.3.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ewitte:
Mine too but to be honest its still crappy youtube quality. I prefer downloaded video even on the PC. Or HDTV recorded off of ceton card.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jjsoviet:
Good. ASUS is giving in to the pressure, and let's hope it will deliver on its promise of a quick update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] taym:
Besides the video playback I noticed that in an AIR app which uses the GPU renderMode there are some displaying issues. On the TF that is.

Basically using cacheAsBitmap for a Sprite screws that Sprite. You can try it here labs.byhook.com/2011/01/13/digital-sheep-air-for-android-drawing-performance/

Download the GPU version of the app and go top options. set it to Sprite and save it. I've tried this on may Nexus One, iPad and iPod touch, which all seem to work.

Does anyone else have this issue with the TF?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] :
They're not "giving in". They're fixing a problem that needed to be fixed... That said, don't expect a "quick" update. It's ASUS we're talking about, here...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] caveman999:
Asus was pretty quick delivering their 3.1 update. At least they are better than Acer with the iconia, they still haven't gotten 3.1 yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
Is that the way things work now, threaten companies with bad press to get things done? Well done....

I'm really sick of whiney kids on the internet these days....
[G1 General] marcelotps:
Hello,

I'v tried 3 ROM's (gingeryoshi 1.2, froyo by lazlo(last one)) and different kernels but on 2.2.x or 2.3.x my G1 get battery drain really fast..

Now I'm using COS-DS 2.3.4 and the battery drain is lower (when the mobile is on "stand by" drains really lower.. But when I get a call (2.. or 3 minutes..) or use Camera, Internet.. etc it consume battery really fast. (From the 3 ROM's above the one that giveme best baterry life on 2.x.x was COS-DS).

When I use my mobile on 1.x (1.5... 1.6) android ROM the baterry last's better than in those 2.x.x ROMs.

So here is my question.. I need sugestions of ROMs and Kernels for battery saving (I use the mobile a lot).

Thx a lot :D

I
[G1 General] marcelotps:
Anyone can helpe me?
[G1 General] cripgballerkundikusu11:
you're going to have to find a rom that you like and then flash a undervolted kernel over it. im using cm7 magpie with an undervolted kernel and battery is good but not great. most roms don't have amazing battery life since they are for speed. the g1 never had great battery life anyway. if you want good battery get an extende battery off ebay.
[G1 General] marcelotps:
Thx a lot, do u sugest any kernel to froyo by lazlo with undervloting settings?
[G1 General] Rick SJ:
The kernel that I'm using with FBL 5.2 is the 2.6.35.12-farmatito-preshoot-ds+tito@debian #145. I've tried many with that ROM but this one seem to be working great and I've gotten the best battery life from it. With the radio off, I get over 6-7 hours before it drains a percent or two. With the radio on and I'm stationary with a decent signal, I get only 1 percent drain per 1 1/2 hour when the radio is in standby.

I flashed the kernel after I setup the phone and most of the apps I use. I also flashed this kernel on my wife's G1 with SuperBler v4 and it made a huge difference also. Give it a try. Good luck.
[G1 General] EviloneX:
Will a Froyo rom be more conservative regarding battery life than a gingerbread one in the G1?:)
[G1 General] cripgballerkundikusu11:
depends on the rom

Charles Wolf released an interesting report to investors on the 19th. I couldn’t find it online so I requested the data directly from Mr. Wolf. Here it is I felt that is was fishy so I investigated a little more.

On page 9 of his report wolf has a quote to support the inferior nature of the apps within the android market place from this article.

Darrell Etherington, “Apple Loses Ground to Android, But the App Store Still Dominates” gigaom, February 9, 2011.

Unfortunately this is never in the article or written by Darrell Etherinton, its a comment on the article from a user who goes by mrrtmrrt who signs his comment Mart. I’m still trying to track this guy down. But he loves commenting. InforWorld, Forbes, The Guardian, Marketwatch, and the list goes on.

In another quote, page 10, said to be from

Kyle Baxter, "Android Isn’t About Building a Mobile Platform,” tightwind.net,January 4, 2011

The real quote is

A cleaver use of eliplise.

I wondered about the accuracy of his numbers and more importantly the accuracy of his interruption of the numbers from IDC. I requested the data from IDC directly and got this response from IDC PR.

From what I gather from released un-usurped data, Nielsen April 2011, comScore June 2011, and most importantly of all IDC June 9th 2011, the same company Wolf quoted the majority of his data from, Android is in no shape to stop or slow down anytime soon. This data which covers that same time period as Wolf's report have drastically differnt trands. I think IDC sums it up best

I got ahold of William A. Stofega, Program Director of Mobile Device Technology at IDC and got his opinion from the same dataset that Mr Wolf has.

I contacted Mr Wolf and asked for his methodology and dataset, but haven’t received a reply as of publication.

With the fact that Wolf's main source of data, IDC, sees Android as the leader and has the expectation of continued growth, the published numbers from multiple sources, I cannot see how Mr Wolf has reached his conclusions. He may have taken an extremely narrow subset of data to produce his numbers, but as IDC stated, its the end of the year numbers that matter, not a subset of data. Without his methodology and the dataset one cannot check his numbers, but if he cannot even cite a source correctly, I don't trust his statistical analysis skills. In the end I think that Mr Wolf wrote this report for shock value and to make a name for himself. I don’t think I am alone in that opinion.

Finally just a reminder, don’t believe everything you read, check the sources, and check to make sure the sources were quoted correctly.

Sounds like what I thought was right, Charles Wolf is a publicity whore.

Forevermore, such shocking use of statistics shall be known as "pulling a Charlie"

Before I go testing on 2.2 roms...is it destined to failure or does it just need testing by someone?

You should really try it, I don't think Z has tested it. I guess that GPS and APP2SD will be broken with this kernel on 2.2.1 ROMs.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:
100% bootloop / stuck on SE logo / all FC. You really need the ROM dev to adjust the ramdisk, this is how it works :)

It didn't flash then. "About phone" should look as on the pictures attached. Are you sure you're on xRecovery 0.3?

Cheers,

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bharadwaj1991:
hey 9Lukhas i initially tried the boot.img DOOMLORD posted for froyo 2.2 but everything force closes...and i think this is not only me but also chiefy009 with the problem. It seems that FreeX10 Beta 4 doesn't work with any kernels from tkymgr..and since doomlord took the ramdisk from tkymgr froyo kernel and uploaded that boot.img MAYBE that could be why i still have FC with his uploaded boot.img...but as far as why tkymgr kernels don't work on beta4 is beyond me.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bodomfan:
@davelinders,did it work 4 you buddy?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] davelinders:
It still keeps rebooting tried it six times now, maybe the cpu cant handle the OC.

Someone told it me earlier that some x10's cant handle it and will keep rebooting with OC.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bodomfan:
repeat the same process again,it should be fixed,what baseband and rom you using? im on baseband 67 with 2.1 rom ,custom arc theme and arc launcher
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] davelinders:
BB67 rom 2.1 B version.

same as me,go back to the cache wipes process again it should fix the reboots,let me know if you have any luck :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] davelinders:
I'l give it up, I go back now to stock 2.1 with CK 3.52 or GB from J's 2.3.4 with 3.52.

I installed the 3.52 over the z's custom kernel now its all fine.

(I think z's kernel is standard set to 1113 and the 3.52 standard to 998, that's

why its keep rebooting.)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bodomfan:
fair enough i got it working on mine,going back to build .435 then no more customising til official gb comes out

Anyone else having trouble entering xrecovery after flashing this via the method that doomlord gave? When I push the back key to enter xrecovery it gets stuck at the sony ericsson screen.

EDIT: Z's chargemon replaced wolfs so thats why xrecovery didnt work for me. I just copied over wolfs and renamed the file boot.img to boot.froyo.img in the system/kernel folder. Im surprised no one else had the chargemon issue or did I skim over it?

Thanks Z and D :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bern4d1:
step 5. in xrec flashed z kernel for froyo (thanks to Z and D) and wifi fix.

which one do you mean zkernel for froyo?

EDIT: I got it. thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] lesath76:
finally i got it worked in Wolf's v007

first try:

on bb67;

booted into xrec,

flashed bootloader_bypass files v02 (thx to D)

flashed chargemon_fxrec file (thx to D)

and then flashed boot.img froyo and, wifi (Thx to Z and D)

rebooted, i got signal but FC's android.system blah blah and couldn't get to desktop

also, could not boot into xrec again :(

second try:

flashed latest firmware via flash tool with bb67;

rooted, installed xrec via flashtool

flashed Wolf's ROM;

booted and got signal.

then via flash tool, installed bootkit (This was my first custom kernel install attempt, i think it's necessary to install bootkit first :P but i didn't know, thanks to D for this thread)

rebooted, but phone was resetting itself after a few seconds and got no signal.

also i couldn't get to xrec

connected phone to pc, and somehow i got managed to install xrec via flash tool between the resets (fast PC :p)

booted into xrec, flashed the other files in first my try, rebooted and guess what? it's charming :)

many thanks to Z, and D and whoever helps the community:)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] g00x:
its great work....but why for stock 2.1??? nobody use it....but we need a stock rome kernel ^^

i need it for the same bb but for 2.2...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tkymgr:
I think that there is individual difference in tolerance for the over clock.

I surely set cpu freq between 245 and 998.

but in overclocked custom kernel,

It is temporary, but x10 runs with max cpu clock by all means at boot time.

over clock is dangerous :p
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Evynnstarr:

JUST IN CASE ! For the ones who are still on Froyo 2.2.1 CM 6.1.3 WB v.006 !!!

It's working like a charm ! Fastest X10 I've ever had, faster than my fingers can do ! Quadrant > 1320 Linpack > 34 at first try with a phone full of apps and widgets !

I did : Flashed Baseband 2.1.67. Reboot, get signal and wi-fi. Flashed zKernel_22062011.zip but got endless reboot. Then, Flashed Doomlord boot.img_zKernel_22062011_FROYO_1.zip without rebooting. DID NOT flashed wi-fi module. And... VOILA :p My X10 is flying like a rocket ! NO reboot, NO FC, NO wlod !

Fantastic ! Think that I'm gonna stay in this configuration definitively. Z and D you rock guys :D:D:D:D

EDIT : Ouch ! With SetCpu on 1137, I got Linpack 35.765 and Quadrant 1447 at first try ! But not very stable, reboots sometimes lol !

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] hasei:
I tried to flash the kernel with the BB2.1.67 firmware but for some reason I couldn't get the HSPA data work properly (I'm not saying that it's because of the kernel). I ended up flashing BB2.1.65 one with the kernel and it's working fine now.

I was kind of hoping that the battery drain is better with the zkernel than tkymgr's 3.52 kernel, but it seems that is not the case. Anyhow thank you for the first kernel that works with more recent basebands!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bharadwaj1991:
hello 9Lukhas and DOOMLORD thank you for your help....for same weird ass reason the GB boot.img works with FreeX10 Beta 4 HP1 ...so if anyone wants to try this kernel on zdzihu's beta4 and can't wait...use the GB boot.img; ALSO,,in order to get wifi working u need to flash wifi module for froyo...and wifi patch fix for froyo...i also flashed gb wifi module..cuz i'm weird so i don't know which one is the one thats working but i am assuming its the froyo one.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] -- X10B --:
anyone willing to help a noob here?

im using freexperia recovery i know i cant use this kernel.
