[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] sabesh:
I too, have both, and agree with what you've said.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Lucas0511:
I was not able to use Swiftkey X Tablet on my Flyer under Honeycomb in Landscape, since what I was writing was not visible (same with Swype).

This is now solved since the 2.1.0.223 version, as I just discovered. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey.tablet.trial
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jmejiaa:
I know this thread is old but I wanted to share about the languages, the reason I use swift is because I don't need to switch languages. It is great at figuring out what I mean from whatever language I am using, I have it setup for spanish and english and it's seamless in that I don't need to worry about it.

This is MUCH better than having to press a button and manually switching languages.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I find Swiftkey X Tablet to be wonderful on the Flyer and you can resize the keyboard to your desires in the settings. I only wish they would put the arrow keys htat are in the phone version back into the tablet version
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] IP IHI II IL:
SwiftKey is all I'll use (til something better comes out... Lol) I can't afford to buy both versions, so I use the phone version on my tab & phone, and it works great!

I "borrowed" the Tab version from a friend, and got kinda frustrated by it entering words for me after entering a period, then hitting space twice (proper punctuation).

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RMarkwald:
That can be adjusted in the settings for Swiftkey X, under Advanced.

Im using swift on my samsung captivate but looking at the youtube video of thumb in action on the tablet I may have to use that on my flyer when it arrives.

looks pretty snazzy
[General Questions and Answers] harlaquin:
I am trying to figure out the difference. I mean they all go to the same internet, all use the same cell phone signals, all run the same android(with updates), all run the same apps, all go to the same market, for most part all look the same.

other then 3g or verisons 4g (which only like 1/8 of the country get s anyway) whats the difference? I have played with liek 40 different phones in the stores and i really cant find not one thing different that would make me go oh well now that 700$ phone is awsome other then bragging rights.

Same with tablets I see al these people saying this one or that one is better but same thing they all do the same thing. maybe screen is a bit different sharpness or something but for most part all new tablets every have same specs and internal parts they are all clones of one another nothing really different other then looks but such big price differences. why?

can some one tell me what a droid x2 at walmart with contract for 600 does that a Samsung Fascinate free with contract at walmart dosent? other then maybe be a little faster on a special network that most people dont get if they dont live in a big city?
[General Questions and Answers] vbetts:
You're talking about contract costs.

Contract is different from buying the phone straight out.
[General Questions and Answers] harlaquin:
That was just an example. there are plenty of phones that are under 200 off contract and other that are over 500 to 700 off contract. I think you missed the point of my question.
[General Questions and Answers] NoctMonster:
some phones have better specs than others, or maybe walmart is ripping people off.
[General Questions and Answers] Davitos:
Recently I was thinking the same thing. I think the differences are in everything and not only in the main things like cpu, camera, screen, battery, ...

Also things you can't see directly in specs will be better on the expensive ones like the audio quality, wifi, gps signal, ...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] SS2006:
The main app any tablet user uses is the Browser I'd assume and unfortunately its the weak spot on Honeycomb.

Viewing most desktop sites is very unbearable (try facebook, XDA, Google Plus) as the page lags, and text input is very difficult as well (huge lag)

Do any devs have any idea how to improve the speed on this stock browser in custom roms or so, I remember a kernel on the Xoom fixed things

This link has more info:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] PhantomHacker:
If we could get a fix for this I could finally love my tab. ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EvoXOhio:
There is a lot less lag on the bonsai rom, but it's not completely gone. Ultimately google will have to be the to fix it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] SS2006:
theyve never mentioned it /acknowledged it

thats the worrying part
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EyeAndroid:
Ya know what actually, as,much as i dont like the look of the browser, opera mobile is the best functioning browser ive ever used. There is no browser lag, it render eveything exactly the way my desktop does. Im very suprised that google cannot mirror whatever opera mobile has done.

Ill give you an example of where opera finally got it right...

Try and do a search on xdas site and see what happens. It opens the text box for a second and then it drops the keyboard. Its never works and it is so annoying.

Now try it on opera mobile. Oh my god, it works!

It doesnt work on dolphin, firefox or any other browser ive tried. Opera mobile it works. Can a super sharp coder figure out a way to take whatever opera has in it and put it in the stock HC browser??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] filep:
it`strange becouse in some forums is all ok, in other the text is very very slow :-(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EvoXOhio:
I tried Opera and everything works great except two things. the first is that often times you will enter text in a text box, and then when you minimize the keyboard to click the submit button, it removes everything you just typed! I had this happen to me about 5 times and then I gave up and uninstalled it. The other issue is mainly a preference, but the tabs suck! Give me real tabs like the stock browser. opera and Firefox have a horrible tab implementation on Android.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] filep:
i hate this thing more of the input lag :mad:, when it succeed often i close my browser and don't write more becouse i'm frustrated :(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nMIK-3:
Plus I am very tired of getting to the "mobile" version of the websites.

Its a 10 inch Tablet..

Google needs to give this thing a Desktop identity and load the desktop version of the websites. One thing Apple is doing right with the iPad.

Even better get rid of this Chrome Based Android Mobile Browser and put there the real Chrome.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dagaetch:
+1

even when I've manually set the useragent to a desktop browser, I still get kicked to the mobile versions of some sites. And sites like...google search, which should know better!

I've tested a bunch of browsers at this point and none of them are perfect. I think dolphin comes closest, but it definitely has little things that are annoying (such as it being way to easy to close the wrong tab)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ninja984:
If you type in about:debug in the browser you can go into the settings and change the uastring setting
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nMIK-3:
I know. But after a while is going back to default.

I cant changing and play with the settings every other day.

Plus regular people cannot deal with such advance settings. I personally know 3 people they went with the iPad because of this.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] thepringlesguy:
I am a little confused. I don't have an issue with the browser or the typing...The pages load and scroll perfect and there is little to no lag at all on my typing. There can be a slight lag at times when i use the Keyboard/Dock but that is it.

Does anyone else have no issue?:confused:

I was wondering.. Now that we have CWM recovery working on our phones, why cant we use the ROM Manager app to update the recovery, flash roms or partition the sd card?
[Galaxy 3 General] RafayelG:
I think its because the app doesn't reconize the recovery.
[Galaxy 3 General] Rapier07:
The cwm recovery we have is unofficial.. Koush, ROM Manager dev, needs to add our device to it.. Unless official cwm is released for our device, we can't use rom manager..

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robojerk:
I am unable to power on or wake the tablet if connected to the charger. Is this normal?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Globespy:
Firstly I love this dock.

I use SwiftKey as my default keyboard, and it works just fine withthe dock.

However, the each time I use my tablet and dock after the screen has been off for a while, but I am constantly prompted to change my chosen keyboard back to the stock asus one.

Despite clicking "don't show this again", and it seems that it will only comply with my request to not show again If I change the keyboard.

Any way to stop This?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] ryan stewart:
go to software update and check for updates, Asus just added the ability to turn that off.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Globespy:
Alas, and I am using a custom ROM, and OTA updates are not possible
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] ryan stewart:
Sucks to be you I guess, contact the dev.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] DilloDroid:
Seems if it even has the "don't show this again" your rom should be based on or have the last update included in it. Check with the Dev.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Globespy:
LOL..... the keyboard prompt thing is a minor annoyance.... offset by the awesomeness that is within the custom ROM and overlooked kernel.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] ryan stewart:
Its just the nature of the beast when running non stock ROMs. Just gonna have to wait for Dev to update their rom then.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] lacrossev:
Im assuming since you are trying to get rid of the prompt you are not using the stock keyboard and that you are rooted by the custom rom. If the rom doesnt have the option you can use titanium backup and freeze the keyboard or delete it altogether
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Globespy:
Yes, I I'm using swifttype and custom ROM/kernel.

I did not think about using titanium pro to freeze the stock keyboard.... I'll take a look at that.

Thanks!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JaredIsNinja:
Yes. The reason we cannot use the drivers for the Desire Z HD and S are because those devices are using the 2nd generation Snapdragon. The Desire and HD2 use the 1st generation Snapdragon.

Which brings me to this. Couldn't we try using some of the drivers from the Evo 4G? The Evo also uses the 1st generation Snapdragon.

what is the best way to install the nightlies now? i have tried the fool proof tutorial and it never seems to install properly, just keeps taking me back into cwm. can i just flash nightly 62 from cmw 2.x? whats the deal?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
When running CM7 (or any 2.2/2.1 rom), the easiest way is make sure you can get into cwm by hand. If you can, then dl the latest nightly (you can still do this using rom manager premium), make sure toy have gapps, reboot into recovery, and flash by hand.

:-)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberpyr8:
Once I have cm7 on the phone, I download the new nightly and run cmw then select install rom and point to the new file. I leave the check for wipe cache and it keeps my info. It even works with the glitch kernel.

The phone had some defects and a bad screen - I sent it for the exchange.

Today I was about to get the new phone, guess what?

The apartment number is missing or is incorrect. UPS is attempting to obtain this information.

Hey guys this is driving me crzy but for some reason Acer missed to check the HDMI when they did the update to 3.1...

I plugged the A500 to the HDTV and the output max capacity is 720p.

Of course I called acer and they had me talk to a Senior Tech to solve the issue, but they were not able to come up with a solution...

According to the Senior Tech guy, he said that Acer will be working on a new Update to make the device capable of displaying 1080p but for the time being there is not a solution to the problem.

Has anyone reported or noticed the same problem with their device?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mug2k:
What program/script is the best option for converting my high profile mkv's to a usable format on my transformer. I'm not really interested in 1:1 quality as I think 720p is overkill for the 10" screen. I'm just interested in a quick and painless method that will also allow me do batches because I have quite a few films to do.

Thanks,
[Eee Pad Transformer General] XL2001:
I tried Freemake Video Converter and it usually takes between 1.5-2 hours to convert (Core2 Quad CPU 2.33GHz). I think you'll be more then pleased with the results and file size. The other popular method takes way too long for my liking even though the results are better.

In Freemake drop movie into program > convert to apple tv > click gear icon to edit preset. Under frame rate select the rate you see in the previous screen when you dump the movie into the program. Should match. You can change bitrate also to change file size/quality (higher is larger and better quality) or leave auto.

Format Factory does a movie mkv -> avi in about 30-45 minutes. Depends a lot on the hardware though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
What's with all of these crappy suggestions?

The best, hands down, program for your needs will be Handbrake.

Does it do .mkv to .mp4 conversion at about 400 fps and retain full quality? YES! (assuming your .mkvs are encoded using h.264 codec you can do a video stream copy that takes about 3-5 minutes per 1 hour of material)

Does it convert to a native format that will allow you to use the stock player and not some dodgy third party player? YES!

Does it allow batch encoding? YES!

If you want to transcode to a lower quality, does it use the best encoder in the world in x264? YES!

Is it completely free and open source? YES! and YES!

Why even bother with anything else?

[Eee Pad Transformer General] XL2001:
Don't know about you but it takes hours to convert for me. 5+ hours.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] chatch15117:
takes me about 14 minutes to rip a blu-ray to h.264 with this CUDA encoder :p
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Ah, yes. I misspoke somewhat. I don't use handbrake to stream copy but I assumed it could.

The fastest way to stream copy an .mkv into an .mp4 is with ffmpeg.

ffmpeg -i yourinputfile.mkv -f mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ab 160k youroutputfile.mp4

If you want a batch script to do it, I've written a quick one that should get the job done.

#!/bin/bash

# mp4maker.sh
# A batch mp4 making script that will convert and rename all in one step.

DIRECTORY=/shares/media/video/
FFMPEG='/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg'
find $DIRECTORY -type f -name '*.mkv' -exec $FFMPEG -i '{}' -f mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ab 160K -threads 0 '{}'.mp4 >>/dev/null 2>&1 \;
find $DIRECTORY -type f -name "*.mkv.mp4" | while read file; do
clean=`echo "$file" | sed 's/ /\\ /g'`
target=`echo "$clean" | sed 's/mkv.mp4/mp4/'`
removed=`echo "$target" | sed 's/mp4/mkv/'`
mv "$clean" "$target"
rm "$removed"
done

Probably not the most elegant, but it's simple and it gets the job done. Be sure to replace the DIRECTORY variable with the location of the files you want to convert and the FFMPEG variable with the location of your ffmpeg.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] bluecnc:
No clear answer.

I have tried many converters, free and payed for, and it all boils down to personal preferences. You will get just as many opinions as there are converters. What I understand is they basically use the same encoding process, just their own spin on a GUI. I know it will take time but just start downloading converters and start experimenting. And this forum is very good when it comes to settings if you are not using a preset. Personally, I use CloneDvd Mobile. Only beef I have with it is it optimized more for phones and not tablets. Hopefully that will change.

Question.

Why would i only get a partial converted mp4 as my result?

I find the source file, drag and drop it onto the batch file and choose my selectin. The result however has been a movie which HAS been converted but is "cut" shirt if the end. Its not the full lenght movie

By the way, thanks for the work
[Eee Pad Transformer General] husher:
why not just use an app that can play a .mkv format?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
This script is specifically for the linux command line. It will not work in Windows, nor in any linux desktop environment. If you'd like a batch script for Windows, let me know and I can probably dust one up.
