I just posted dev8 here: http://code.google.com/p/apv/downloads/list

See if it helps with your search issues.
[Android Apps and Games] vdubjim:
Dude, works like a champ!

where is the donate button?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Here. We should probably have it on the website, too.
[Android Apps and Games] pavanmaverick:
Keep it simple!

Actually I'm hoping you don't add any of the fancy features; or at least have a "Light" version that is just a simple PDF viewer with blindingly fast rendering. No fancy bookmarking or page flipping animations or anything.

And I'm glad I finally found your donate button. :D

Once again, thank you for a wonderful piece of software.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
There aren't going to be page flipping animations. UI animations waste energy, increase UI latency and make UIs feel slower. I turn them off on whatever devices I have, whether desktops or portables. (Sorry for this little screed.)

That said, bookmarking is coming because I need it. However, it won't add much bloat. I expect it'll add maybe 5K to the apk, and shouldn't slow down the rendering. Highlighting would slow down rendering slightly, but if I do implement highlighting, I will take care to ensure that it only slows down rendering in those files that actually have highlighting.

In fact, you might see the apk shrink by quite a bit in the next Market release because of the Market's recently added capability to deploy separate apks for different processors, which would eliminate the need for the apk to store both libraries.
[Android Apps and Games] metamorph8:
Sir, this is an excellent program. My sincere thanks to you.
[Android Apps and Games] br0adband:
This is definately the only PDF reader I plan to use from now on with my HD2. I'm hoping that at some point it will be possible to get that auto-detect routine working to get columnar format content (basically most books, etc) to fill the screen properly - the margins in some PDF files are just insanely wasteful of screen real estate, but sometimes PDFs are more trouble than they're worth.

But most definitely a kick ass app, for sure. Keeping it lite and fast is a great thing to stick with, so arpruss I applaud you for this app. Well done, very well done indeed.
[Android Apps and Games] rogier666:
Any chance of adding text reflow?

Adobe removed the option from their own PDF reader in their latest update, so now the options are sticking with the old copy of Adobe Reader (v10.0.2) or finding an alternative reader that can reflow text.

Adding to your app what Adobe removed from their own is a good way to attract a hundred billion new users for your app.
[Android Apps and Games] Rycon33:
this is a very good app! faster than adobe reader, nice!

OP, kindly indicate the date on the thread name whenever you update the app, thanks
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Text reflow is hard to implement well, I think. I don't have the time for it.

One might much more easily implement an option to remove images, and show a text-only version in an ebook reader of one's choice or a web browser.
[Android Apps and Games] Emama:
I need one PDF viewer that invert color and here I go!

Nice and fast app

PS. anyway to let me fit the text to both sides (cut all the margin)?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Been busy with other things (e.g., this).

But I noticed that the muPDF snapshot has a ARM-optimized scaling, and I merged in the latest muPDF snapshot, which theoretically should significantly improve performance in image-heavy documents.

Get 0.3.1dev10 from here.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Looks like I failed to enable the ARM optimizations correctly, so they weren't there in dev10.

They're there in dev11, along with a feature that I really like. You can set the orientation to "harder to change", and then the screen only rotates when you set it almost vertically, and even then only in two directions (portrait and landscape--no reverses). This lets you have the best of both worlds: easy switching between portrait and landscape, and no accidental switching due to tilting the device too much one way or another. I think all apps that rotate the screen should have this option (I first implemented it in my LunarMap).
[Android Apps and Games] zt3:
Great app arpruss! Simple and straightforward! I love how you incorporate the "screen always on" when reading as it provided me convenience. One thing I noticed though, when I open a password-protected pdf file, the app force closes. Any thoughts about this?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
We don't support password protected documents right now.

I am worried about the export restrictions on cryptographic technology. Do they apply to decryption-only products?
[Android Apps and Games] teruhiko666:
I just started to use android tablet a few days ago and i really need a good pdf reader apps that able to display 2 pages in 1 landscape view like a normal magazine.

The only app that capable is perfect viewer with pdf reader plugin, but unfortunately it crashes a lot.

Is there a way to adjust 2 page in 1 display view in this pdf viewer app?

Thanks, this app rocks
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Well, if we had an option for horizontal page arrangement, you could just arrange the pages side-by-side. So why don't you go over to code.google.com/p/apv and either file a feature request or add your agreement to the request for side-by-side page arrangement?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I checked, and it looks like a one-time notification of right government agency may be good enough. So maybe we can do it.

Not working, Not installing correctly

this app loads my 700 pg textbook too slowly
[Android Apps and Games] vdubjim:
The version i talked about, and asked for the paypal link many pages ago, works great on my 2.2 ARIA, and 2.3 Coby tablets searching a 1600 page document.......
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Have you tried the armeabi version?
[Android Apps and Games] Xinthose:
yes, I did; (apvpro-0.3.2-armeabi.apk and apvpro-0.3.2.apk) both installed fine on my Pandigital cracked Android tablet (apvpro-0.3.2-armeabi-v7a.apk would not install) ; but when I try to view this pdf (sendspace.com/file/8gus6w) it lags on me a lot and takes 3 mins plus just to load the first page.
[Android Apps and Games] Xinthose:
well, it was a 1400 page textbook on vector mechanics with tons of pictures, is probably why it was running so slow :rolleyes: ; so I ended up splitting the document into 4 separate parts and now they load faster; but your application otherwise works very well and I thank you for that; I would have used Adobe 10.1.1 but I get parse errors when installing it on a non-Android market device; this app is just as fast (seemingly) as adobe 9 except with a Ton more features.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Now that I have a multitouch device, I added multitouch zoom to APV in 0.3.3dev01, available here

It's far from perfect. In particular, I am not so happy with the flash you get when your fingers let go. Also, occasionally the page position isn't quite right when you let go. If you have a way of duplicating this problem consistently, let me know. But it works and is useful.
[Android Apps and Games] xgustavoacex:
I'd love to have a pdf view with a translate/definition function.

I mean, if you select a word, it goes online and find a definition for it. Just like iBooks does for ebooks files (not for pdf)

I'm testing your app right now
[Android Apps and Games] 白い熊:
I read many books, not available as pdfs, that I buy and scan. I therefore have two requests, if I may, regarding scrolling.

I would like a horizontal scroll lock very much, as I scroll horizontally. Sub-request, many books I read are Japanese, thus it'd be great if one could have a setting for horizontal scroll direction, left to right, and right to left.

Anyhow horizontal scrolling currently doesn't seem to work at all, though you mention that making a horizontal motion 1/5 of the screen should do it, doesn't do anything for me.

Second request, very important, scrolling page lock. Now, pages just roll based on how you flick the finger, no way to just flip to next page. Furthermore, as I scan the books myself, they don't have a uniform page size, and it's very uncomfortable to see parts of other pages on the screen too.

Last, minor, not related to scrolling, can you add yellow text on black background to the invert colors option. I prefer it over green.

Thank you and many thanks for your efforts in developing this app.

Best regards,

I downloaded the file named apvpro-0.4.0-all.apk and installed it on Nook Simple Touch. It installed fine,but I cannot open any pdf with it. I see the files, but when I want to open one, the screen flickers and I am returned to "home directory".

I installed the wrong file/version?

What is this necroposting? I tried your application and honestly, can you edit pdfs in it, though? I'd prefer something with expanded functions, like this: https://pdfmovavi.com/ (It's one of the pdf tools I use daily to edit my ebooks)

Anyone try this on an epic yet? I don't feel like testing it first as I am waiting for a phone call (staples please hire me)

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/make-the-best-out-of-your-android-device-with-v6-supercharger/

Looks cool though
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latinmaxima:
Looks interesting and I am reading the thread now.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
I am a crash test dummy. I will try it out now...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Ok, I am running them now. Let me do some testing and report back. I do notice that things do seem to reopen faster after you open them the first time like G-Talk,messaging,browser,etc but let me mess with it some more. I still have to charge battery and re-calibrate my battery..EDIT..I want someone else to try this out to see if things feel faster to them like they do for me. Almost instantly when you press them.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Xopher, just shot you a "thanks" for the find. Seems to be very impressive so far...looking to see if there are negatives. Also, waiting for some people wiser than I am to try these out and see if they negatively effect any baked in goodies
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xopher.hunter:
Thanks yeah it looks very convincing from the thread, gonna apply the script tonight as well and report my findings tomorrow.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
No bugs here. I have tried it on 2 Froyo ROMs now. You have to remember to back out of apps or use task manager because it will keep them open. Great for Multitasking and such. I have no side effects to report. Make sure to calibrate the battery.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobby2k6:
calibrate before or after applying the script
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AproSamurai:
I got a bunch of Errors on EG22.-___-' lol. Probably operator error on my part though knowing myself.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobby2k6:
did you follow the tutorial linked in the "supercharged" thread...im on eco5 so maybe its eg22
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
I believe he said that its not ready for Gingerbread. There are a lot of changes to be made to the scripts before it will work. This is for Froyo
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnervinE:
I just finished installing this script - it's the real deal. From what I could gather, it passively optimizes memory management by changing when different priority tasks get killed, which optimizes how much free memory you have.

For us Epic users, I found that using custom settings works the best. Since the Epic has 384 MB RAM and the scripts were designed for 256 MB phones, I chose memory values in between "aggressive" and "megaram 512mb". Apps used to have a small delay before they drew - completely gone. This is also a much more efficient and logical "task killer".

The settings I found worked the best were 6,10,30,45,60,75.

It's very noticeable, even running SyndicateROM 1.2/Genocide 2 @1.2GHz. :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Thanks for that thorough review. I noticed the exact same thing. I am going to try your settings in the morning to see if its even better than it feels now
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:
Im on EG22 and im running option 9 right now...... I really noticed a difference...... I wonder if someone could implement these scripts into a kernel for our epics :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostrid3r:
FYI... If an alternative would be to use Galaxy Tuner > Memory Manager > Application cache and plug in those values EnervinE was kind enough to provide to us all. ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
That would be true if the SuperCharger script was just another lowmemorykiller/minfree tweaker.

FYI: Which it isn't
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Aah, you are here! Which setting do you recommend for the Epic? I have been using #9 and 11. Also is running the KickAssKernel and the 3G TurboCharger scripts with V6 recommended by you? I thought I read that you said yes in your thread
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
btw, it runs great on gingerbread.

In case of errors, try a lower busybox version.

As I said in the PM, it depends on which point the phone gets laggy.

If it's laggy at 50mb free ram, set slot 3 to 50 mb so that you won't have less than that.

For slots 4, 5, and 6, it really depends on how much multitasking you want or don't want.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
That's why some people had an issue with Gingerbread. Needed lower Busybox version. PM effen lags it sometimes. Thanks for the response.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xopher.hunter:
Lol at me for starting this 2 days before the one in the general section yet the other one has twice as many responses.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robl45:
is there a simple way to put this on the epic? i don't have the SM thing that is mentioned in the original thread, can i load through terminal emulator in some way? and if so, what do i type?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Script Manager is free in the Market
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankyFiggz27:
Definitely get Script Manager over Terminal Emulator when using this script. It worked perfect for me and the tweak is AMAZING!! Apps open on the press, like they should. I didn't even get too crazy with the settings, and used setting 6 (Balanced #3) and my phone is flying. Also check out the 3g tweak script. I tested it out with Speedtest earlier - Kept my phone in the same EXACT spot in my office. Ran speedtest BEFORE installing the tweak on 3g and got DL speed of about 250-270kbps. Ran AFTER the 3g tweak in the SAME SPOT on 3g and got 1000kbps!!!! No joke!!! ****'s ridonculous.

Just in case anyone is wondering, I'm running SRF 1.2 w/ Twilight Zone 1.1.1 kernel with (just installed 2 days ago) EG22 modem OC'd to 1.2gHz.

BTW - If you have my settings, do NOT flash the kernel tweak in the original post w/ the 3g and kernel tweak script. Effed my **** up. Got stuck in boot loop.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robl45:
Used normal scrolling and setting 7. Doesnt seem any different. Said that setting was for multitasking.

Damn, after hearing some results, I'd love to see this included in an EG22 kernel. Easier for those who get confused at these things lol :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Its really not hard. With the V6TurboCharger you want option #8 or #9. MegaRAM. I have noticed better results with option #9 though as earlier stated by zeppelinrox, the RAM available in the third slot may be too low causing a touch of lag. It can be changed manually I believe but option 9 seems great!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfilemanx:
anyone else get confused with all the thread jumping around????

I'm gonna try and follow them all and do this....looks killer :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xopher.hunter:

If i were to do this and then later on flash and install a new rom both being ec05 roms would I have to redo this everytime?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Yeah, if you flash a different ROM, you will have to redo it. Once you run it once though its simple. Now it does stay when rebooting your phone of course
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seegy24:
Thanks that is kind of what I figured hopefully I can get it figured out
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seegy24:
Ok I should have included this in my original question what about installing a ner Kernel?? You don't have to wipe to do that so would it stay or is this part of the kernel not really an expert at this stuff just trying to figure it out and follow instructions lol. I guess if it is easy after the first time then it wont be a big deal either way just trying to figure it out. I thought flashing roms and rooting was going to be hard at first but after you do it it gets easier. Until you think you know what you are doing then forget something then you learn about odin haha
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Huh...good question. I haven't tried changing kernels after setting up V6. I will test it out later this afternoon.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robl45:
so whats best option. should I not use 7? i really don't notice any difference with option 7. should I try 8 , 9 or 11? and it says something about disabling some other stuff, but I didn't see those options.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omair2005:
BonsaiBread users do not need this tweak. Most of these settings are already applied (thanks to Randy). The 3G tweak is well worth it however! For other roms, I like Aggressive 1 setting; its a nice balance between free space and multitasking.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Try out #9 first then see how your phone is. Then try out #11. I think that my phone may feel better without anything though.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mouseglider:
Well, I finally tried the V6 SC script and everything seems to work well with no gltitches so far:

1) opening apps seem to be about the same

2) re-opening apps seems a little quicker as in more like a task switcher - the other app is in memory and therfore snaps into place rather than redraw in place.

What I did:

1) choose #8

2) then choose #11

3) rebooted

4) went back in and it said current minfrees match prior minfrees

5) then for the heck of it, I tried #1 - I answered launcher locked in memory - it said launcher is weak.

I am using Laucher Pro Plus and I have checked in "General Settings" Keep launcher in memory - should that be unchecked?

Other note, I am UV'd and OC'd via Voltage Control on Genocide v2.0 on a stock EC05 rom unning at 1.3ghz

Am I setup correctly? - hard to tell as my epic was running pretty quick before the script.

Any way to verify setup, or is that by choosing #1?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] andrawer:
Anyone have experience using their Infuse backpacking???. Probably not this soon but ya never know.

I like to use my smartphones for backpacking / hiking and am trying to put some thought in using my lovely Infuse for this purpose. My primary use will be camera and camcorder. Secondarily it allows me to eliminate carrying a separate GPS, reading material, knot tying guide, maps for emergency use, etc.

So with my Infuse...my thoughts are;

* Replaceable battery is a nice feature (as opposed to my ole baby-hand sized iphone4). I should be able to purchase several off ebay to last 5-7 days. Don't mind the extra packing weight .

* Will turn off WIFI, bluetooth, data BUT leave on GPS for photo location. I hope my Infuse's GPS issues (slow locks,etc) will not be a problem.

* I can't stand the power button locks the screen while in the camera app. What a hassle but I think I saw a few "fixes".

* Will need to pick up a otter box (or similar ) case.

* Looks like downloaded geographic maps are abundant via the Market but will only use this for emergency since the battery drain would be too much.

I think the Infuse should work out quite well if I can make the batteries last.:)
