Yes, I noticed even in the Netflix app, that everything was setup in a static environment. Hence the changes that are made to some of the layout xml files. With or without rotation I think the layouts should have been coded differently.

It did look like the easy (lazy) way of doing things.

This is the second mention of memory leaks. I would like to know more about this, what is causing it, how to prevent. Is it happening with my modifications.
[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
To my knowledge, there is no application for decompiling apks directly on your device. Whats more, the apk has to be recompiled, zipped, and signed after the changes are made.

To change the layout (fullscreen) it depends on how it was coded to begin with. I am still in an android learning mode and cannot direct you to what exactly should be changed. I can have a look into the apk to see what has been done, and maybe I can help :D
[Android Apps and Games] xan:
It might or might not lead to memory leaks.

In android environment memory leaks are not very dangerous, due to Dalvik VM.

Anyway, to observe a leak -> Check ram usage of app. Then do 1 rotation -> check again, it should be increased. That is normal. Then do several rotations and if memory increases significantly (talk about megabytes!) there is memory leak.
[Android Apps and Games] SX86:
Sure, if you'd like to take a look at it, you can find the APK at http://www.sirius.ca/en/android/SIRCA-signed.apk

I'll try to poke around that APK myself, when I get home.

Let me know what you find !
[Android Apps and Games] J3STUR:
Nice tutorial. Some one told me how to do this a long time ago and i forgot. Dont think it will work will all apps but still a nice guide. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
True, not all apps are coded this way.
[Android Apps and Games] ASimmons:
Memory leaks are very dangerous for an app and can and usually cause out of memory exception or force closes. Your app is suppose to use up memory and recover via garbage collection, this technically isn't a memory leak but not good since gc is not guaranteed to run and since memory is at a primium on phones resource management is important. Memory leaks occur when resources are consumed and then de-referenced by the vm so the garbage collector will not gc it. With the tabview and most views orientation changes it will restart your activity and if for instance you have anonymous classes or listeners you do not un-set this can cause objects to build up in the heap or worse lose its references.

If it truly suffers from a memory leak repeatedly changing the orientation will eventually crash the app, in other cases it will just consume more memory than the app should need and since gc on android fires when it wants you end up with a simple app using 40 megs of ram or more when it shouldnt need that. DDMS in eclipse is allot easier to use, you can really see how an app is running.

Want Wordfeud to work in landscape so it's more usable on a tablet. I tried changing the "1"s to "sensor", but no go crashed on startup.
[Android Apps and Games] BenKranged:
This works with wordfeud and absolutely every app I have tried. Obviously there can be glitches due to the unintended orientation.

Still I give props to the op for a free way to do this. I like free.
[Android Apps and Games] xperiax10.awesome:
In portrait mode lot of games orientation does not suits Sony Tablet, because of its wedge shape, we are expecting the orientation in such a way that we can hold the thicker side with our left hand..

I took the AirAttackHD.apk

Decompile it (using APKManager)

Changed the following line:

android:screenOrientation="portrait" to android:screenOrientation="sensor"

Compiled it.

Copied the assets folder into build folder, zipped it, renamed to XYZ.apk

Signed it using Sign+

When trying to install, its giving parsing error, what else to do??

Can anyone who lives in Canada tell me if they can get streaming on their Transformer?

I get this little popup:

This device cannot instantly stream from Netflix in your area. Visit ca.netflix.com/NRD to see a full list of devices that instantly stream from Netflix.

Weird thing is I see people using Netflix all over Calgary.

Edit: Nevermind

To get netflix working do this:

1) Make sure you are updated to 8.6.5.9

2) Make sure you download the latest netflix package here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07...st-phones-too/

3) Install netflix from the apk BUT DO NOT LOGIN YET (If you have already please clear the applications data.)

5) Sign up here: http://www.vpnreactor.com

6) Go on your tansformer and setup the VPN in wireless and network settings. (Pretty straightforward username password and url.)

7) Connect to the VPN

8) Login to Netflix

9) Pick any video and let it play for 15 seconds

10) Disconnect VPN

11) Reboot yout Transformer

12) Use Netflix without VPN
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] turbulent28:
Didnt get to test it too much, but the one difference for me was the red Netflix startup logo.

Before, it was stretched and looked a little "chunky" (almost as if in safe mode)

Now, the "Netflix" Letters are smaller and sharper.

Ill have to try other videos, but was streaming Prison Break episode and fast forwarded/rewinded, and the buffering time was quick.

Before, it seemed to take longer.

Netflix 1.4.0 working on my non-rooted Transformer

I was able to download, install and use Netflix (1.4.0 build) today on my Eee Pad Transformer.

Why haven't mods slapped this thing down yet? It looks like Sprintusa is trying to add credibility by saying he has an official Netflix API key. Does this mean anything?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Dblfstr:
Anyone can get an official Netlfix key. Netflix has a dev section on their site where you can register and build apps with official Netflix APIs. That how there are so many queue managers and such. BUT, you CANNOT make a native streaming app, as that api is not open and it is against the dev rules:

http://developer.netflix.com/

"

Third Party Applications

* May not play Netflix movies inline, but may launch our stand-alone player when a member hits the Play button. (Not available for Mobile applications.)

Don't:

* Adjust or alter the content you receive from Netflix, including but not limited to video source, artwork, or metadata.

Don't:

* Misrepresent your service or the features it offers, or fail to attribute Netflix.

"

[user] has claimed to do the first "don't" and has actually done the second "don't"

But these are Netflix rules, not xda rules.

The mods did slap it down, at first. [user] was banned for about (~2 months), something like that. But, it was not for posting bullsh*t apps, it was for stealing apps and re-posting them with different names. We proved this and had [user] banned. As soon as [user] came back [user] was posting the same crap.

You will notice that [user] only posts in other peoples threads because all of [users] were closed, even [users] new one got closed almost immediate. Most people report [user] in their threads and a mods will tell [user] to stop posting crap.

Using [user], trying not to flame :D LOL

[Off-topic] Breakthecycle2:
Dude, that would be huge!! This is what I need: (copied from the instructions page)

First step you want to do is get ahold of a RETAIL (and i stress the retail part because you cannot use an OEM version of the disk, since they are specifically tied to the computer you bought it with) version of Snow Leopard (and it has to be the 10.6 version, not the 10.6.2 or 10.6.3 retail disks). Next, you want to make a disk image of the DVD (go to disk utility , select the DVD, and click the “New Image” button at the top to create the image. Save the image where ever you would like.

Once the drive has been formatted, then you want to drag the disk image (where ever you put it) to the left bar right below the DVD drive. This will create an icon below everything else for easy access. Go to the partition of the usb/sd card (which is directly under and indented of the main drive. Then go to the “restore” tab. Under the “source” you want to drag that icon of the disk image from the left and place it in the empty white bar. Under destination, you want to select the partition (or the entire) usb/sd card. When thats all set, click the “Restore” button in the lower right corner. This can take up to 30 mins to complete, so go take a bathroom break or get yourself a cold beer.

When you come back, the disk image should be successfully restore to the flash drive. DO NOT EJECT THE FLASH DRIVE. We’re not done with it yet. Go to the folder that you downloaded and select the “myhack_installer_1.1.mpkg”. This requires concentration, because one wrong move, and you can ruin your real mac. Continue through all the license agreements, etc til you get to where it asks you to install the files. Make SURE that you click your usb/sd card. Double and triple check this (I cannot stress it enough. i am not responsible for any damage or lost data to your mac). Click the continue button. Now dont just click the install button. Instead, go the to customize button in the lower left corner of the window. The following things need to be selected, and nothing else: Core (which should automatically be checked and you cant change that), com.apple.Boot.plist, EvOreboot.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext, and SleepEnabler.kext. Thats is. After those are checked, click the “Install” button in the lower left corner and give yourself a 10 minute break.

When you come back, the installer should be all finished and give you a “congratulations” screen. You can now click the “Done” button, which will quit the myhack installer.

It used to work before but not now! I'm currently running Apex 1.4 if that matters. Is there a setting or something I need to change? I went into my WT settings in the encryption setup tab and tried all my options. There were only two not counting auto. One was iwconfig and the other was wpa_supplicant. Neither has worked. Is this the right place? I'm not very familiar with the settings in WT simply because I have never had this issue before. Thanks in advance.
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
I'm not completely sure, but from what I understand your wireless tether is broadcasting in ad-hoc mode, when it should be broadcasting in infrastructure mode.

If you can find a way to change this setting your problem should be fixed.

Edit: What version of Wireless Tether are you using?
[Droid X General] boomstick069:
That is exactly what it is doing. I can't seem to find out how to change that setting though. I was running an older version of WT and went ahead and downloaded an updated version. Tried it out on some friends phones that were giving the ad-hoc error also and I'm not seeing it with the newer version now. We'll see how the wifes Kindle reacts when I get home. Thanks!
[Droid X General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
In the newer versions, it's under 'Setup Method'.

I generally use 'Auto', but that may be going to Ad-Hoc for some reason. Try setting it to 'Hostapd (master)'. That should force it into AP mode.
