Ever since I updated to GB, I have noticed that when I use the back button to go back to a previous page in the default browser, it just closes the browser.

Then when I open the browser back up, it opens back to the page I was on. I've looked around for a setting for this but haven't been able to find one yet....any ideas on what is going on??

I am unrooted....for now......

Known problem. No fix for now.

I fixed that problem by downloading Dolphin HD Browser from the market. It will pop up with a window asking if you want to exit before it will exit, plus doesn't seem to have that issue anyhow. :)

[LG Revolution] borborpa:
Yeah I switched to Dolphin HD too, so much better.

I too switched to dolphin. It still happens to me occasionally, bit much less often on dolphin.
[Galaxy S II General] SGS-II:
Came across this video on youtube which was pretty informative so i thought i would like to share with you guys. Basically it's a video comparison of the Super Amoled Plus display (on the samsung droid charge which is identical to the galaxy s2) against the Super Amoled Advanced display (on the motorola razr).

Some quick information:

Super Amoled Plus - RGB display with 800x480 (WVGA) resolution

Super Amoled Advanced - Pentile display with 960x540 (qHD) resolution

[YOUTUBE]7yuwEY2lA_Y&[/YOUTUBE]

For those who want a quick comparison:

1:45﻿ (Super Amoled Plus)

3:00﻿ (Super Amoled Advanced)

Personally, i find the super amoled plus display superior to the super amoled advanced display as it is slightly crisper and colours are more balanced. What do you guys think? :rolleyes:

[Networking] bmx0964:
Ive been tossing the idea around on whether or not its something to pursue. In my mind it seems somewhat feasible. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 (which from what I can tell is basically a Samsung Galaxy S without a data plan through a carrier) and it is rooted. There are even start-up processes and services for the dial pad and phone (even though its only supposed to me a glorified MP3 player). So with that being said here is my idea...

The original Amazon Kindles came with free 3g connectivity right out of the box (no service plan). I am thinking maybe there would be a way to set up the Galaxy to connect to the Kindles free 3g internet. Maybe mock a Kindle ID to the Galaxy. Even if you did something along the lines of running a Kindle ROM in a VirtualBox type app on the Galaxy for server authentication.

What do you guys think????

I am new to the Android world but not new to computers or hacking (by hacking I dont mean black hat. I mean modifying things to suit your needs ie. rooting).
[Networking] synaesthetic:
The Galaxy Players don't actually have a cellular baseband. The package's position on the board isn't populated. Thus, it's completely impossible for the Galaxy Player to connect to a cellular network.

The reason the phone and dialer bits are still present is they are core to Android and can't be removed easily.
[Networking] bmx0964:
ok what about tethering the kidles 3g to wifi???
[Networking] synaesthetic:
The Kindle's 3G is only usable to download books. The connection is very restricted, and you really can't do anything with it. Obviously, if the operator detects excessive traffic on an account only intended to download eBooks, your access would be killed pretty fast.

Those of you lucky enough to get your mitts on a Galaxy Nexus may have noticed something odd -- no flash in the champagne room Android Market. Turns out the latest edition of Adobe's multimedia plug-in isn't compatible with the newest version of Google's mobile OS. Don't panic just yet though, while the end is nigh for mobile Flash, it's still got one more release left in it and that will deliver ICS compatibility. Adobe told the folks over at Pocket-lint, "[it] will release one more version of the Flash Player for mobile browsing, which will provide support for Android 4.0." Or, if you're a glass half-empty type, ICS will be your last chance to browse the "full" web on Android. The final release of the mobile plug-in will also be accompanied by one last version of the Linux Porting Kit -- after that, you better hope HTML5 really hits its stride.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HideYoKids:
Makes way more sense that it just wasn't compatible yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] winwiz:
yup :)

this is good news!

hopefully by the time we get android 5.0, html 5 will be the norm :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] amkaos:
im not sure i asked this correctly on another post..

using tmo prepay plan of 100 miin and 5gb data , and unlimited text,

if i use wifi to call, will it charge my phone minutes?

i get conflicting info from reps.

thanx much
[HTC Amaze 4G] pcassaro:
If you are using the wifi calling feature from T-mobile, it uses your minutes. If you're using some sort of voip solution while on wifi it will not. I have the same plan as you and I use GrooveIP for all calls while on wifi. The sound quality is OK. Some people complain about it, but it's definitely usable, and it keeps me under the 100 minutes of the plan. The other thing about it is that it uses google chat to complete the calls, so you have to have a google voice account (free) and people calling you will have to dial your google voice number. This wasn't a big deal for me since I was already using google voice and everyone used that number to reach me anyway, but if all your contacts have your cell #, you'll have to get them to start using a different number to call you. You can set up google voice so that it forwards all calls to your cell and to google chat simultaneously. Then set up GrooveIP to only work when on wifi. This way you'll get your calls whether on wifi or not. It also works on 3g/4g, or is supposed to. I didn't need to even try as unloading the calls when on wifi keeps me well under the 100 cell minutes, so I can't tell you about the quality of that.
[HTC Amaze 4G] amkaos:
well tyvm..

i put up thanx for you.. when im ready, i would like to PM you to get all the hoops in line..

i do have google voice , so i have a jump start
[HTC Amaze 4G] pcassaro:
glad to help. just let me know if / when you have questions.

That $30 plan is awesome, isn't it!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Born_Immaculate88:
It depends on where the call was started from. If your call originates on wi-fi and you have the feature on your plan then it is free to you. If the call originates on the T-Mobile network and you then go to a wi-fi call it will be using your minutes. YOU MUST have the free wi-fi calling feature on your account as well for it not to use your minutes.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gangstar:
hello!

i just bought my p7300 tablet, brand new and it came with 3.1.

i checked for update and no updated, i conected to kies and checked for update still no update!

now the questions!

1. is it stuck with 3.1?

2. it seems to me that wifi is very poor, download speed is very poor in comparison with my s2. am i right or i have a defective device?

3. after power on and click on task manager to clean ram memory i am left with 400mb, and with my s2 i have almost 650!? why is that happening? dont they both have 1gb?

4. whats the battery life at this tablet, in real life not specs over the internet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
The 32/64GB P7500's just shipped a couple of weeks ago and they're on 3.1 too. I'm sure there will eventually be a 3.2 update. Samsung screwed up the roll-out in the U.S. so I'm sure that'll slow things down for a bit.

My Tab is a bit slower than my SGS2 also. You're looking at different processors and radios so there's no reason to expect them to be the same.

I have 571MB of 724MB on my P7500. They're two totally different devices running different OSs. You can really compare the two. Some RAM is reserved by the OS so 1GB will never be fully available to apps.

With heavy use, I get about 7 hours which isn't too far off spec.

when will we get 3.2? 3.1 is very laggy

I've decided to try be a contributor to this community however im already stumbled on my first step which is how do I get Eclipse installed and working. I've googled this and I get outdated links, download wrong Java packages etc. So if someone could spell it out with links below. That would be much appreciated!

[Epic 4G General] Gavisann:
Watch this video, should explain how to set it up.
[Epic 4G General] nikon120:
You don't install Eclipse, it's a stand alone package rolled up in a zip/tar file. You extract it, double-click on the .exe (if windows) and it will run.

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-classic-371/indigosr1
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
STFU, at the least the guy is trying. Contribute or get out of here.

OP: Are you trying to write apps, or develop ROM / port things for the phone.

If you're trying to write apps, this might a good reference point:

http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/projects/projects-eclipse.html

However, this may not be the right forum if you're trying to learn how to do that.

If you want to make ROMs or port.... that's considerably tougher and you usually don't use Eclipse for that....
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Google Search has been most helpful for me for porting MIUI. Also, if you can't find what you're looking for on google, go to webchat.irondust.net and join the #epic room. Devs can help you there, but google first please.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
double lols
[Epic 4G General] ddrbeastappv1:
Don't really care about this guy. At least I got my answer. Tysm for the video link. The first thing the video discusses is how confusing it is to get started just trying to download JDK.

Secondly, I plan on first making some basic apps and understanding the way Android works. Then, possibly may go more advanced with themeing and such.

Lastly, I want to point out I'm not alone in this post. YES you can GOOGLE what I asked for in this thread. Hardly any of your search results you get back from Google will be clear and concise and I appreciate some people understanding that not everyone is fluent in the ways of Android development.

I flashed mostly everything interesting on these forums whether its roms or themes or mods. I look up to the developers at ACS among all the others.

I believe this is a relevant post and a lot of people feel the same way I do.

Thank you.
[Epic 4G General] globalninja:
I am also heading down this path. Do you have programming experience?
[Epic 4G General] thomasskull666:
Theming/ROM/Kernel development are seperate from app development, as I'm sure you are aware. Two different beasts entirely, actually. I would start with ROM and theming ventures first to really learn how the operating system works, then move to kernel development to see how things are actually interacting.

App development is a whole 'nother ballgame, writing apps in Java is really the nitty gritty of the works. To understand this, it would help to know how things in the OS work.
[Epic 4G General] ddrbeastappv1:
Yes I do. I've had experience in Java it's just been years! But um I don't think the basics of programming will be any trouble. I've already attempted to read up on some Android Programming Tutorials. My main hurdle was getting this set up on my computer so I could follow along with a guide. I do realize themeing and developing are apples and oranges but they are both interesting to me. I read someone's post long ago (not sure who) to begin writing apps and then maybe try one's luck to create ROMs.
[Epic 4G General] stormglove:
Hey bud, congrats on trying to learn this stuff. We at ERA started out just as you did about 3-4 months ago with a similar post. It is tough going at first but there are plenty of people out they're willing to help. The devs in this community are great and I feel confident in speaking for ERA, and from coming from where you are, that if you need any help or have questions feel fee to pm us and we'll do our best to help.

That's the time I would like to be a contributor to the development for this phone. thank you so much for the support!

[HTC Incredible S] ambuj:
Downloaded in fractions of minute, installed on 1st flash...booted normally...

and to my surprise everything is working (Literally Everything!!!!).

Version is Android 4.0.1

Am I dreaming?
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
If anyone is having issues with it being in Chinese then just fiddle around with settings... U will find out somewhere in keyboard settings change language to English...
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
I feel its much smoother than previous miui Roms.... It's just great having bragging rights.... Loving it so far...
[HTC Incredible S] johnblundon:
so no ICS addons just android 4.0.1?? That's the main feature?
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
It's just the framework that they have no ui elements and no features... They say power management and 3D is from ics... I have no idea what that is... Any dev can explain??

But hey.... Atleast a start right?
[HTC Incredible S] johnblundon:
Yeah man a great start! thanks for the hookup, checking it out now. Hopefully we will see a full ROM soon :)
[HTC Incredible S] nikhil007mmus:
Tried it just now. its smoother than the current miui roms .. I get no feel of ics 4.0 , no ics components , maybe the miui ui doesn't give me the feel of 4.0 .. there is a hell lot of text in chinese.. took me 5 mins to figure out how to change the language .. getting back to my rom :) .. Here are some screenshots for you guys :
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
Hey nik... To get rid of the Chinese shortcut menu... Just reboot the phone
[HTC Incredible S] darkidz555:
yea it took me couple minit to change to english this is so cool i hope all those dev can dev some nice thing nik keep it up ^^ lol i hope it got beat audio in it ^^ peace
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
edit: ignore me, didn't see the screenshots.

Looks nice, but I'm still not convinced by MIUI. :)
[HTC Incredible S] veitograf:
i'm not a dev but afaik so far only samsung used gpu for animations and stuff. ics now supports that too nativly, guess its supposed to make everything smoother.

i mean the gpu isnt used much except for when you play games so its actually quite clever to use it:)
[HTC Incredible S] xzr3b0rnzx:
100% fake..
[HTC Incredible S] shiningarmor:
it's real android 4.0.1, just that the ui and everything isnt integrated into miui's stock ui.

so basically it's a miUI with android 4.0.1

just like aosp sense roms
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
It's fairly easy to spoof the version number though I believe...
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
is it worth flashing? anyone?
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
If u like miui then yes... It's much smoother.... But u won't necessarily feel ics in there....
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
Can't say its fake... They can't just release a fake for 18 devices dude... It's the real deal... It's just a start now... Maybe in a month or so u will see the entire of ics.... But since its miui I don't think the ui would be changed because that's what miui is know for... So expect just under the skin changes... There are videos on YouTube of these roms on various devices.... Gs2, moto defy for example...
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
hmmm then not for me...a cm7 with ics theme would be better for me. miui is too much of an iphone rom. its good though.

EDIT: Is the camera working fine? with no lag? big question coz all aosp roms have this lag problem.
[HTC Incredible S] shiningarmor:
yes but i agree to above poster that they wouldnt go thru all the trouble to spoof android version number for 18 devices

im still waiting for htc ville's sense 4.0 leak :D
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
Me too... I love sense... But looking at the recent trend.... Sense roms are becoming more resourse thirsty... I have hardly 150mb of free space on RAM on sense 3.5 compared to 300mb on sense 2.x.... So I guess sense 4.0 will need more RAM...
[HTC Incredible S] shiningarmor:
if uou're that worried about free ram.. then u dont understand android at all. it has been posted nearly a hundred times, android's memory management differs from all other os. therefore, low memory doesnt mean a laggy android.
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
Ya man... I know that.... I was just saying...
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
the problem here isn't having free memory, it's having lag spikes here and there.The only fix for this is Hardware Acceleration which isn't in Sense.I hope the next version has it as ICS also has native HW acceleration.
[HTC Incredible S] shiningarmor:
yup, hopefully HA will fix sense's laggy ui..
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
damn camera bug :( why isn't there any fix for it ?
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
tested. found nothing special except the 4.0.1 system info.
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
I found it to be more smoother.
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
maybe. my senses are so off at the moment :D

but yeah the camera lag exists. maybe i will keep it for some time :)

anyone tried tiamat or lord's kernel on this?
[HTC Incredible S] thakur90:
I always use tiamat kernel for miui all the time... It is possibly the best.. will try on this version too... As far as lords is concerned... I'll give that a try too...
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
well i think something is better. got a quadrant score of 2171 while on the latest cm7 i got 1700+ .....no OV/UV...everything is stock. however these scores are not so reliable.
[HTC Incredible S] johnblundon:
I found it very smooth and fast and stock everything worked great!!

With a little work you can make it feel more ICSish if you want just for fun:

Overall it's a nice little addition to the Incredible S community and I look forward to updates :)
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
looks nice. which theme john?
[HTC Incredible S] greengiant:
in this MIUI rom it really does say 4.0.1 as android version,

no noticeable difference from previous MIUI roms, even with ADW installed.

is there any way to confirm an ICS base?

without the stock ICS launcher i wouldn't really consider this ICS.
[HTC Incredible S] ajeya:
nevermind john. got it. for others...you can try this amazing ics theme for miui.

As said it just has some ICS framework features such as power management likely taken from the SDK? Not sure how specifically.

[HTC Incredible S] bernlim:
Probably so, but this is MIUI, quite a respectable group of programmers, so I'll be more inclined to trust them.

Anyway, its the ics components that I'm sure most people want. So for now the ROM is not that attractive. But still, progress! And I am extremely thankful for that :) just give the devs some time I'm sure more ics roms will surface soon!
