[General Questions and Answers] Mk_pt:
Some weeks ago i was thinking in a Motorola Atrix to replace my old HTC Hero.

It's a good device but after some questions...

Juami answer:

My question now is:

How do OMAP 4430 'handles' MKV 1080p High Profile/high bitrate?

I've read that 'theoretically' OMAP should be better in 1080p decode that Samsung Exynos.. Is this truth?

Another question...:

Someone knows the difference between OMAP 4430 and Galaxy Nexus OMAP 4460 ?

Cpu i think it's the same.. probably its the mhz on PowerVR SGX540 right?

yes.. Droid Razr will be my next phone.

:)

Thanks in advance.

[General Questions and Answers] juami:
Diceplayer does not support OMAP4 yet.

Samsung's video decoder implementation is much faster and powerful than TI's implementation. Samsung want to use Exynos to their TV and Settops. So Samsung AP's video decoder accept all of H.264 profile & level.

Exynos and Hummingbird support Zero copying rendering. it is much faster rendering than OMAP4's V4L2 overlay rendering.
[General Questions and Answers] Mk_pt:
Thanks for your help Juami..

That means that diceplayer dont run on android's with TI OMAP4?

Galaxy Nexus have a OMAP 4460.. i guess there will be support for OMAP in [a near] future right?

About OMAP4's V4L2 overlay rendering... is better then the rendering/decode engine on Dual Core snapdragons [HTC Sensation/ Sensation XE]?

Thanks

Hi,

I was originally on .368 stock with DoomKernel. When .42 came out for Mini Pro, I installed that with Wotan, and then tried out the last CM7 build.

Unfortunately I forgot to back up my previous install of .42.

Can I just use wotan again to flash .42 to get back to stock? I'm guessing I can't since i flashed the CM7 kernel already.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gr8ak1:
Just flashed back to .42 and all is back to stock including kernel, just use usual method with wotan.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] barrist:
Awesome, so you were on CM7 then went back to .42 just through Wotan?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gr8ak1:
Yep was on CM7 had the vibration issue, and went back to .42 using wotan no problems although im now back using .377 as doomkernal messes up my wifi on .42. will just have to wait for the next CM release :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] barrist:
Thanks!

yah just went ahead and did it, looks like it worked easy as pie
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] c4sp3r:
i am using cm7 on my mini pro right now and when i tried to flash the .42 firmware the flashtool gives the following error

... when i connect the phone in flash mode by pressing down the vol down key the led turns green for few seconds then the free xperia logo appears and the led turns red :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ngchoonghao:
thanks, i also flash back to stock already since CM7 havent release yet..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] barrist:
not sure about flashtool, just used wotan and worked perfectly.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wwwong:
Technically it should be ok, since the whole update from wotan includes the kernel. Otherwise if you really want to be safe you can go to this thread:

1. Download the FTF file you want

2. Open with Winrar and extract kernel.sin

3. flash the extracted kernel.sin to your device

4. flash with wotanserver :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ungazz:
just a question.. will i loose the drm of my mini pro if i use wotan server to update my firmware?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xperia ray:
i am from india and i have xperia ray with .42

if i unlock bootloaders , install CM7 . and get .42 back with wotan will i get bootloader locked again ?

i am sure it will not lock bootloaders again but will i get my DRM data ?

(The .apk file name is PlusOne.apk, but is the 2.0 version actually, dont worry about)

3) Copy to SD on your phone

4) Install the app...

5) Open the app and select your Google Apps account

6) Ta daaaa!!! =) Enyoy!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitziflitzi:
Hi,

I write on a little gps/google maps tool which I use for my running sport (something like MyTracks). Today Google anounced that the usage of the Google Maps API will cost when you are above a daily limit -> http://googlegeodevelopers.blogspot.com/2011/10/introduction-of-usage-limits-to-maps.html

In this blog and in the faq they are writing of websites and applications. Are applications = android applications? If this is true than it will be difficult to write a freeware app which uses Google Maps because the more users will be using this app the more you will pay. Even with a paid app you cant cover all the costs because you only get a one time a payment from a user but if your app exceeds the limits you have to pay google on a daily basis.

I hope I just missunderstood this blog post or the Google Maps API within Android isn't affected.

What do you think?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunacie:
Seems unlikely that an Android app (assuming counted by a single app usage, not by everyone using the app at any given time) could exceed 25,000 map loads per day, but then I've never counted map loads... if that is a possiblity, then this is really going to suck the wind out of google maps!

Then again, I've always wondered when Google was going to start charging for services that have become exceedingly popular.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitziflitzi:
Huh lufc,

why do you move this thread? The normal user don't have a problem if the developer have to pay or not. It's only a developer thing/problem, imho. But ok, it's your decision.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
The post above pretty much sums it up, but in future you could easily have used the search tool to find all of the answers. It isn't that difficult and saves you and other people time, as well as preventing people from cluttering up the forums. There must be at least a hundred other threads like this in the forums, with literally exactly the same question.

Another thing I would advise you to do is to update your ROM version from 1.48 to the latest official stock ROM 3.14, this will enable you to skip the radio flashing part (the most risky) as the official update will update your radio as well.

Aside from this, good luck with flashing Android :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] YZ:
Can tell you what you need, but how to do it, you have to find out yourself :)

- Install hspl 2.08

- Install radio 2.15

- Task 29

- Install magldr or clk

- Install recovery (you can find the system/cache size from the OP's thread)

- Flash the rom from cwm

Reboot and enjoy :)

It depends on what app you use or if you're using a built in feature in a rom. For example ShootMe puts them in the ShootMe folder on your SD card.

Volume down + menu on MIUI puts them in MIUI/screen_cap.

Don't know about other methods/apps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
I used to use an app that put them in the data folder. Check the settings for whatever app you are using. It should tell you, and sometimes give you an option to change, the destination folder.

Hello folks

I have a Verizon 3G xoom purchased second hand and just filled out the free upgrade form online and should be seeing the fedex box in a day or two.

Now that i have done that, is there any reasons not to upgrade?

I am NOT on any data plans right now, I really don't see myself adding a plan anytime in the near future.

My thinking is better take the free upgrade now before they pull the offer later.

Maybe this upgrade will help retain some value in the xoom for later re-sale?

By no means have i been able to read all the + & - of the upgrade.

Is there anything that would make you rethink taking this offer?

Regards ;)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wes_s:
There are no custom roms/kernals/themes for the 4g upgraded xoom yet.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e.mote:
I doubt having the 4G LTE will help resale value, for the simple reason that anyone thinking of spending $30-50/month for 4G service probably isn't the type who would buy a used tablet for the task. The Teg 2 is already obsolete now; by the time you're ready to resell it, it'd be two generations old. In other words, forget about resale value.

LTE upgrade can impact battery life, although not sure if that's still true if it's not activated. The possibility is there.

IMO, KISS.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PengLord:
In all likelihood, you have a long time before Motorola will stop doing the upgrades. You will lose the ability to use ANY custom ROM or Kernel for the foreseeable future. If you don't use the cellular radio, consider waiting.

If you don't care about custom ROMs/Kernels, send it in (they might still have a few free cradles laying around, you never know).

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denverguy:
I currently have samsung vibrant ,its battery drains too fast ,might be some problem with it

I have the option of replacing it with another vibrant or samsung galaxy s 4g

which one is better ?

I have heard that samsung galaxy s 4g has only 512 MB internal while the vibrant has 16GB

is that too little to the way that makes it defective or to impede downloading apps on it (since most of the apps should be downloaded on the internal memory )?if so is there any solution for that rather than rooting the phone?

I love the idea of having a front facing camera and a better battery life

but im concerned about that memory issue
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeavyA:
I think you're mixing up internal storage (16gb) and RAM (512mb). I don't think you need to worry since those totals are exactly the same as the regular vibrant.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denverguy:
no the internal storage of the samsung galaxy s 4g in only 1 GB of which only 512 mb for apps ,tmobile usually take about 200 mb to preload apps on the phone !
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
I think you are confused about the memory issue.

Anyway, find out which phone has more dev support, and get that one.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
Vibrant has more dev support but 4G have more official support but the memory is a huge problem because it will be hard to update the phone since it has so little space
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collins521:
Same devices internally,

Vibrant = 16GB Internal Mem w/expandable possible, No FFC

Galaxy S 4G = 1GB Internal w/expandable possible, w/FFC

Only difference....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricobudz123:
I have both and there are some good roms out there for the sgs4g way better batt life and apps will save to sd
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
4G has 1650mah battery 3G 1500 not all apps can go to sd an roms have to go to internal memory
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
Vibrant is better except gps and stock Rom performance.

Oh, and the ffc.

Hspa+ download speeds are not consistently good enough that you will beat the vibrant 3G consistently, since I could get almost Mbps down with mine in hspa+ market.

Maybe I'm being ignorant, but if a 3G vibrant can't hit 7.2 down, neither will any "4g" vibrant.

That's why I'm not into high speed hspa+ devices. You get terrible battery life on them for not much, if any benefit.

I think the only benefit is better upload speeds but my 3G vibrant uploads at 2.5+ Mbps in an hspa+ market which is fast enough for most any task.

Get a 3G vibrant cheap and install a custom rom of you like to tinker. It's a better value for the monetary investment, IMO.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krzysiek_CK:
I have both and Galaxy S 4G is simply better than Vibrant.

1. Better battery life

2. Better GPS

3. Better speed (best 14.3 MBits/s vs 6.2 MBits/s on Vibrant)

4. FFC

5. Better display (personal opinion)

After deleting bloatware, without doing FOTA mod, I have availaible 274 MB.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
First of all, the vibrant is a 7.2 mbps device. The 4g will not consistently get over 7.2 for the vast majority of people so that's a wash IMO.

Battery life isn't that much better. Its only a 10% increase in battery size.

The GPS is the biggest gain IMO, but the storage is more important. I find the vibrants GPS is fine for accuracy. Where it actually fails is how damn long it takes to lock. This affects people which turn GPS on and off on an as needed basis a lot more than those that leave it on all the time since the phone will almost always do a lock on boot which lessens the time it takes to get later locks for that latter crowd.

The ffc is a win on the 4g, though. Can't argue with that at al. Losing that much space is not worth it IMO. I'd still get the vibrant over the 4g just for the extra > 12g storage in it!

In the end which one is better will ultimately depend on how you use your phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heygrl:
Your opinion doesn't hold water (as usual!)

The higher modulation that comes with "4G" allows for higher peak speeds. The Vibrant has overhead, 7.2 Mbps is only under optimal conditions, never really ever happening. 21Mbps is also only under optimal conditions, but the higher ceiling allows for higher peak speed.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krzysiek_CK:
I consistently get 8-10 MBits/s on 4G, I guess I'm the vast minority. Also, I live 2 blocks away from the T-Mobile store that has 4G tower.

There is more too it then you think, and it translates to a much better battery life than 10%.

In your personal opinion but not in mine. Storage is cheap, broken GPS wastes time. I currently have 16 GB card in Galaxy S 4G and it is more than I need.

Since you like to respond for others, let me do the same. The vast majority of people have issues with Vibrant GPS that wonders by blocks and occasionally by miles.

I work in a high-rise and leaving GPS on all the time kills battery since it tries to connect all the time. Strangely enough, you also made a comment regarding the batter life.

I beg to differ.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badaphooko01:
I would get the newer model if it had miui support. I don't think I can live without miui ever again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
I said the battery was only 10% bigger. I can get over 11 hours on my vibrant. It's on the charger before it can die. Battery life not a factor for me on these phones. I'm aware leaving gps on drains battery.

16g isn't enough to hold my music and videos. The extra 12 in the vibrant is huge cause 32 gb cards are still too expensive IMO.

And yes very high speeds aren't all that common even Verizon lte customers don't get anything near the theoretical max. I can get ~4 down on my vibrant anything more than that I won't notice much since I don't tether or download ridiculously large files on my phones.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krzysiek_CK:
OK, I guess you like your Vibrant. That is perfectly fine, yet it does not make Vibrant better than Galaxy S 4G.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neotoky:
I used to have a vibrant before the insurance got me the galaxy 4g. I can definitely say that the 4g is better. My speeds doubled which is almost the same speeds as my cable

internet. I don't have a problem with my battery especially since the 1800mah battery from the epic 4g touch is working wonders. I do miss the 16GB on board but I have a 32gb card and never had a problem of having low internal storage. We also have some great developers so not worried about development. Also we have official gingerbread!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gun:
I had both and I think modified vibrant is better.

Some apps on 4g were losing their settings after reboot.

Inernal memory on Vibrant is faster than external SD on 4G.

Also 4g drains more power than 3g.

In 4g they made 2 copper GPS contacts in vibrant it is only one
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itstheshawnp:
my question...are there roms specifically for the vibrant 4g? or do any of the normal vibrant roms install and work the same on the vibrant 4g? just had to do an insurance claim on my vibrant and had to get the 4g. i rooted it, but dont want to go any farther without consulting from the knowledge of xda!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collins521:
No they are different. Don't install a Vibrant rom to the Galaxy S 4G...bad news
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I really don't find the vibrant 4g to be any better, they are different yes, but are essentially the same phone. Here's how I put things

Vibrant:

More storage for those that need it

More support from community

but less official support

Galaxy 4g:

FFC

Faster network speeds

More official support

other than that they are the same essentially, no need to argue little things, both are great and serve different needs. IMO I would never ever trade my vibrant for anything else =)

PS. Before someone comments on my NS4g, I have it due to being forced to switch to sprint.
