[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FATEOWNZYOU:
I'm running cm7 on my vibrant.

I installed the update 31 and used cwm

I checked to install Google apps. But everything but the market installed..

Tried another 2 times, still didn't install.

Can someone send me everything I need for the market? (Besides just the .Apk)

Anyone kind enough to do this for me?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
First use a file manager and check /system/app for vending or other market app files and delete them.

Go to settings, applications, manage, all.....look for market and vending, delete them if they are there.

Reboot, then redownload the google apps.

Go into recovery, wipe data/factory reset.

Flash google apps package again. Fix permissions, reboot again.

Latest google apps......

if that doesnt work reflash cm7 or go back to stock with odn and then reflash cm7

K thanks guys
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
We currently have the Incredible S/2 being blown away by a bunch of dual-core models and even some single core models in benchmarks, but in reality, what does the future hold for the model? It seems to hold the status-quo as a reasonable solid model as opposed to a jaw-dropper. Are there any rumours of an S2 or 3 or R?
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
IS is great. no need to look for replacement yet.
[HTC Incredible S] letmedanz:
^--^ totally second that!
[HTC Incredible S] Mikael1711:
Benchmarks my *ss.... It´s a rock solid phone!
[HTC Incredible S] Nomad_KZ:
I am ok with my IS but there is always room for improvements. So this is my wish list for next generation:

1. Better battery (1750)

2. Keep single core

3. More accessories

4. Lower price ;)

5. NFC
[HTC Incredible S] John Anderton:
I like my phone.. the only phone I'd consider getting is the SGS2 right now only for the fact that (I've heard) it has great performance and I've always wanted to try out a SuperAMOLED screen.

Fact is, I wouldn't spend so much on a phone especially when I have a pretty good phone right now.. Especially with me finally getting root 2 weeks back :D

Then again, who doesn't like better battery :) I have some minor issues with network drops in some areas but I plan to get a new Radio tonight.. hope it will make things better :)
[HTC Incredible S] shaer_nahyar:
HTC incredible S is the best single core phone in the market! nuff said:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb2106:
I've read a few random Galaxy related topics on the SD card not mounting, but Im worried about using methods from other devices on this device.

In Rom manager premium, Flash ClockworkMod recovery was used, selected Vibrant, it said no official recovery, and asked if I had installed version 2 or 3 of CWM. I selected 2 and it said its using CWM with Rom Manager.

Well now anytime I reboot into recovery, or try to flash a rom from Rom Manager Premium it cannot mount the SD card.

I go into mounts and storage and try and mount the SD, nothing.

Is this something as simple as re-partitioning the SD? Or has something corrupted in my recovery?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb2106:
BTW, XDA, you guys ROCK!! I dont post usually, cause I dont need to! Except this time :(

The guides and walk through here are so easy I usually never have troubles. Rooted and rom MANY different android models for work here :) All thanks to XDA!

***** CHECK OUT THE COOL PACKAGE I JUST RECEIVED!

were you able to solve this?
[LG Optimus 2x] Pupsika:
Hi guys,

Im new here and I wanted to post this in the FEAR developement thread, but for some reason I cant, anyway

Im on FEAR 8.0 and it has been running smothly. Today somehow my whatsapp, facebook etc always was forced to shut down when I tried to open it. So I rebooted an now Im stuck on the LG screen. Sometimes it freezes there, sometimes it reboots to the LG screen again!

Any ideas?

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] ULJ:
Well, seems that the system (Android) has crashed on your phone due to some unknown reason.

The only thing you can do is to do a factory reset (from ClockwordMod Recovery which I assume you have installed).
[LG Optimus 2x] Pupsika:
Yes I think I have it installed, but how does that help me if I cant access the phone anymore? Is there a manual for the reset process?

Is there no way to get the data off the phone, because that would suck big time :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Optimus2XPrime:
Go back to stock rom, search my thread to see how!
[LG Optimus 2x] Pupsika:
At the moment the ROM is not really my concern!

The only concern is my data!

I need a way to get it:mad:
[LG Optimus 2x] Pupsika:
Update:

Installed FEAR 10

without

full wipe and everything is still there and running :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofir786:
Hey i installed a custom rom, ewjet 008ex to be exact, it has an app called swapper configuration, at the moment its not active, ive never used it bfore but it seems to work very similarly to readyboost feature u find on windows. ive also heard that this can reduce the life of the SD card because the amount of read and write requests. has anybody used this feature and has it helped in anyway such as performance and memory usage, ny help would be greatful. thanks in advance
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svtfmook:
i've used it on CM roms on my G1 and it worked great.

i tried it on ewV008ex rom and i had some problems. i have an 8gb class 4 card, so that may have contributed to it, however, with 256mb swap, i would have a song skip every now and then, i had a few random reboots and bluetooth connectivity problems (not sure how that had anything to do with swap, but it started when i started swap and stopped after i removed it). and after about a day, i ended up with a damaged sd card (which ended up being a corrupt file somewhere on the SD card, a format fixed it). there was little improvement noticed, again, with a class 4 card. i really didn't test any other swap size because of how short of a time i used it. but i would assume with a class 6+ card, 128mb swap size on an ext partition on the sd card, and it would be a lot more benficial. too big will actually slow swap down, too small and it may not be adequate enough for your application.

there is no universal magical number that you can use with swap, the settings will depend on your sd card class, apps you are using, etc. typical swap settings are 64mb, 128mb, 192mb and 256mb, or atleast they were on the G1's a few years back. try a few different settings and see how it works for you.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofir786:
Thanks for the reply mate, hmm in 2 minds buh i might give it a go, i have a class 10 16gb microsd card, so id have to create an ext partition i take it?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svtfmook:
you don't have to, swapper can write the swap file to FAT
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Srikar_NBK:
I have both TF and the Tab 10.1 right now and contemplating returning one. I liked both the tablets, but one little issue I dont like about the TF is flash playback. Flash playback even in 720p, is ultra smooth on the 10.1, while its choppy at best on the TF. Anyone else facing the same issue?

Anyone running custom ROMs able to fix this? Would getting the browser apk from the Tab 10.1 fix this issue on thr TF?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] matty1323:
Is your TF on 3.1 or the stock 3.0? I had some really bad lag and skipping with my TF when I was on the stock 3.0. I manually installed the 3.1 update from a link on the XDA forum. Was easy and went smoothly. Ever since, my flash playback via youtube has been butter on HD.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Srikar_NBK:
Yea I'm on 3.1, installed from XDA. The flash playback is bad for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] akarol:
Same here. Flash playback is much smoother on the 10.1. Especially on browser.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] italia0101:
this is a known issue, go to .. http://www.youtube.com/my_speed

Scroll down and hit show test video.. URL see the fps, change it to 720p on my tf it gets 9-10 ,where is the xookm gets 30+ on all videos , and I'm on 3.1

Seems like hardware acceleration isn't working with tf...

What does 10.1 get
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Srikar_NBK:
10.1 gets 30-35 fps for me, while the TF gets what you reported.

Just wondering, can any devs turn on Hardware accerelation in their ROM's ?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] italia0101:
no idea.. its really annoying though as this is what I really looked forward to in 3.1..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Digiguest:
ENOUGH OF THE VS THREADS ALREADY!

Either you like it or not. Just make up your mind by yourself....because that is ALL that is gonna use it....YOU.

SO asking others will not help YOU out.

Sorry for the outburst but these VS threads are getting out of hand and are just going to start a flame war. They should NOT be allowed.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rilot:
This is a valid issue though and I for one and interested in other users' experiences. I was unaware that flash runs better on the other HC tablets and had put it down to being just a HC + Flash issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Srikar_NBK:
There was no intention of flame. The question was asked, to find out what different in the TF, having the same hardware n the OS as the Tab 10.1. I'm not asking others to take my decision, I'm only asking others to help me resolve an issue, which I feel is important in my decision making. Stop jumping onto obnoxious conclusions.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sontin:
There is no fix for this problem. Only Asus can provide a solution. And i hope they doing it asap.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] italia0101:
me too.. so annoying as oit works on any other 3.1 tablet...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vista1984:
yes, i am reakkt disappoint about the flash performance..though i love my transformer.

hope it will be solved soon, like the youtube app playback issue
[Eee Pad Transformer General] keroppilee:
I agree that the weak threads about nonsense details between tablets and which is better are useless. This thread, however, is clearly asking an important question. Why are tablets that essentially use the same hardware and same software performing differently?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dorino1:
I have had no issues with flash playback being "choppy". I would use the speed test, but my tab is in Texas right now. Haha.

Anyway, this is definately a software issue and you can expect a fix either on XDA or courtesy of Asus. It's not something that will always be a problem and shouldn't be a deciding factor, imo.

Afterall, can't you root and install a custom ROM to alleviate the problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Srikar_NBK:
That was a part of my question too. This is one of the deciding factor for me right now, bcoz I spend lot of time on Youtube and I have major buffering issues using the youtube app on both tabs, which strangely is not there when using flash :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dasgh:
Mine is rooted running Prime 1.4, latest clem kernel, OC'd to 1.6ghz and it still is only getting 9-10. Tried in stock browser as well as Dolphin HD. I'm not sure where the bottleneck is... Not sure if it helps anyone but for some relative numbers, the quadrant score is 4000+.

So, it seems to not be a processing power bottleneck but some other factor.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dorino1:
Of course it isn't the processing power. When he's saying other tablets with identical clock speeds and identical processors perform better, that's a given! lol

I'd get an advanced task manager-type app and go through disabling features and turning off background programs until the problem is resolved. Troubleshoot it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
It's not a processing problem as that test video clearly shows that the transformer is using software decoding rather than the hardware decoding it should be using.

It's either an issue of missing libs on the transformer or Flash falling back to software decoding when it shouldn't be. I'll steal a copy of the flash system libs from the tab and install them in the transformer to see if that fixes the issue.

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wynand32:
Just ran the test, and I'm getting the same poor results. And, I'm not sure if it's relevant (might not be saying what I'm thinking it is), but the test video also indicates software decoding. Not sure if this should say hardware decoding, but it sure seems like it would make sense.

This does seem like an issue if other Honeycomb 3.1/Tegra 2 tablets are performing better here and/or using hardware decoding. Makes one wonder where else there might be issues.

Asus, if you're checking these threads out, looks like something you should be fixing.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jjsoviet:
Sad but true bro, most companies nowadays don't seem to care about aftersales service unless being under siege by their customers. Take a look at Motorola, which is now passing the ball to carriers in regards to the unlocked bootloader policy. HTC got a ton of flak from developers when it locked the bootloader on some of its latest phones, and has since redacted its stance after a short period.

Hopefully, ASUS will be able to sort this problem out, while Adobe should put out more support for the Transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Enectic:
Just received the Acer Iconia A500 OTA for 3.1 and decided to test the flash video you guys have posted on the first page. Prior to 3.1 I was getting 9-12 fps on the 720p video but now I'm getting a steady 29-32 fps. Not sure what Asus is doing wrong but I hope they fix it for you guys soon.

EDIT: Also just noticed that the Acer Iconia is not listed as a "supported" tablet on the Adobe website (http://www.adobe.com/flashplatform/certified_devices/tablets.html?PID=4169959) however it seems to play Flash just fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] keroppilee:
if you paid me 400$ for a tablet and got a kick in the nuts instead i think you'd whine for it to get fixed too lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hyperxguy:
Strange observations.

I downloaded a bunch of youtube 1080p videos (saved as 720p) from PC then moved to my TF. The FPS is so bad thru Gallery. I downloaded Moboplayer and audio would disappear after a few secs. I re-encoded using "Apple-TV HD profile 720P" which I'm sure never give me any issue. That didn't help.

Then I cleared the Gallery's cache and everything is great (?!!?) Moboplayer still looses audio so I let it go.

I've not figured out why it happened. But I have no issue now.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] caaznkid:
I'm not sure if this applies..to flash playback specifically, but when I am loading up videos on the browser and then I switch to like...imo messenger app and then I switch back to browser howcome the video doesn't play anymore? It'll only play if I like stay on the browser only and not switch. Is there a fix to this?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
So any news on what can be done about this? I find it incredible that the Transformer is the only device not able to play Flash video correctly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CelticWebSolutions:
Makes you wonder what eth heck asus could have done / not done!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zillah1985:
I think they rushed 3.1 out too fast. After all, they were the first!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
The longer I wait. The harder it will be to try and get a refund. I would say let's wait for 3.2 and hope all these problems are fixed but I am losing faith.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CelticWebSolutions:
as far as i'm concerned the Trnsformer is looking worse the longer I have it, between poor flash, crap speakers, low volume on the mic etc it's not looking quite so good now I own one :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
Werd, maybe we shoulda got Galaxy tabs, hear they are built very well. I'd hate not to have the dock and slots though, but ya the poor flash is really killing me, can't believe it's still not fixed! Something else I've noticed to, alot of higher end games like Gameloft ones seem to release for the Samsung tab and others but not the Transformer, also the Cisco AnyConnect client released for the Samsung devices but not Transformer, very sad :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] elislurry:
Crap! I finally have my money to buy one and now this has me rethinking which Tab to get!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zillah1985:
Yeah, to tell you the truth, flash isn't that much of issue right now because it still "works." Most flash video I watch is only 480p.

But the speakers and the mic, my god man what were they thinking! Add these other bugs and I am seriously thinking of sending it back. A shame though because it still is a pretty fine device...and I need a tablet nowwwwwww....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] elislurry:
What is the issue with the Mic?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
Something else that blows me away is the lack of advertising, I've seen tons of cool commercials for the Xoom, Galaxy, and now the Thrive but you see none for the Transformer, a huge lack of marketing can't be good for the device either. You also never see it in any "Best tablets of 2011" or similar lists either it seems..., or if it is it's in the bottom even under the HP tab and Playbook.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zillah1985:
I have to yell for people to hear me on talk and for anything to register on voice search.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fabsn:
nonetheless the teansformer is the most successful (=sold most often) android tablet
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CelticWebSolutions:
Same here, we need some way to tweak Mic volume.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
I think what has happened is that Asus did not account for it's initial popularity. Thus the reason they did not need to advertise it much. Basically it was a instant seller before it even hit the market. Because of this things were rushed and QC suffered as a result. I think it's also the reason why there is a lack of accessories. Asus are obviously overwhelmed by it's popularity and now it's leaving a bad taste in customers mouths. Just look at the RMA's. I bet there is a large return rate on these and seeing as they are underselling them and relying on profits just from the dock it appears Asus made a real goof on this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xTRICKYxx:
Okay, so what the hell is Adobe doing? They still have not supported the Most popular tablet that has been released months ago.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SoCalTiger:
Opposite. It only plays HD. Which is why I hate it. Don't have the bandwidth so if lags like hell for me.

Sent from my Transformer TF101
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SoCalTiger:
Weird. Mic works fine for me for voice search

Just tap the hd symbol and the goes to sd
[Eee Pad Transformer General] adnan.makarevic:
i have not only problems whit hd videos, some normal quality(or low quality videos) are not 100% fluent.. and some flash forum sites on internet too.. there i have issues that the browser response time is very bad, when i click on a link, it need two or three secconds to execute my step.. or when typing text in a text box on a form site whit flash, the capitals are allways to late, the keyboard have lags and sometimes it skip some capitals or free space between the words.. then i have problems whit showing the site, i can use it for 30min whitout problems in representation, and from one seccond to the other i see only a half from the page.. only close and re- opet the browser helps.. can somebody recognize that?

many thanks.. ;) i hope im not allone.. :( and i hope too that is the same issue, because the flash player didnt support hd acceleration..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Justray:
Popular doesn't mean better, plus I tough ipad was the most popular tablet right now.

And I don't think adobe flash is responsible, 'cuz it works great in the Xoom and Iconia (Own Iconia, Xoom is a friend's of mine), and both got 3.1 so hardware acceleration is perfect, tested in newgrounds with heavy flash animations and youtube HD 720p both browser (Opera and Stock) and youtube app. Everything smooth.

Not even updating to flash 10.3 fixes it? then Asus is the one to blame ('cuz hardware beetween most honeycomb tables are the same, tegra 2).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gwai_jai:
have you guys tried the hulufied version of flash?? I got 30fps on the YouTube myspeed video after installing it...however it only works in the stock browser.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Interesting. This is true, that the recently circulating hulu-capable hacked version can and does play back at full 30fps in 720p. Success!

This lead me to question why it would work though. I downloaded this hacked version (Google search it, I won't link it here) and also downloaded the original 10.3.185.22 version it is based on (it's about 2 months old). Testing the hacked version and I do indeed get hardware accelerated 720p. I disassembled them to figure out what was changed between the hacked and the official version and the only change is one line in the Flash Player library that reports to the browser what version of flash is running (Sort of like a UA string hack for Flash). This isn't enough to disable hardware acceleration though, and guess what: strangely enough, I also get hardware acceleration on the non-hacked version as well. Crazy that!

So, the tl;dnr version: For some reason, the latest Flash Player does not accelerate 720p video. I still don't know why. An older version (10.3.185.22) DOES accelerate Flash and can be used to fix this nagging problem. Download it here:

http://www.filesonic.com/file/1037676654

OR HERE:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10724980/Flash.Player.10.3.185.22.Android.apk

To install, first remove any installed version of flash (go to market -> my apps -> Flash Player -> uninstall) then copy to your device and run. No root required, but you will need to turn on non-market app installs.

It's not the latest version, but nothing significant has been added since this one, and at least it works right!

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Canadoc:
just posted on this also.

Seems after reinstalling the latest version in Market after uninstalling the hacked version and all is good. Maybe it modifies a system lib file.....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] caveman999:
The hacked version has to modify something because I just installed 10.3.185.22 which was in the post above yours and it plays the exact same as the most updated version in the market, super laggy.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Actually, it uses it's own libraries. Without root, nothing from the market can modify system libraries--and Flash Player never uses root privilege so no, it doesn't modify a system library.

What you're seeing is either one of two things:

Placebo - You updated and it seems to still work well. This is possible, but I'll assume otherwise.

Data left behind in the com.adobe.flash folder tells the new binary and libraries how to work properly

I suspect that it is the latter. I'll research what gets left in the Flash Player data folder and see if I can root out why it seems to work after update.

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eljeffe991:
So I had to do it twice, but the second time it worked. 30 fps at 720p on the test video. It took the 720p video a minute or so to settle out, but its working. Going to try other sites now. Hope it sticks.
