[Windows 8 General] lumpaywk:
As above you do not want the all in one if you are going to do any sort of graphics work. unless you have space issues I would go for something with a larger case and full atx board if possible as this gives great upgrade ability. I don't know about where you are from but if your not comfy building it yourself there are always company's willing to build systems. If you know your specific need it can be cheaper this way as well as normally systems are built to a level and everything goes up together but you may not need a lot of it.

Also touchscreens do not work on desktops unless your doing presentations etc. As I said windows 8 works best with mouse and keyboard and for desktop work you will prob find you hardly ever see the metro interface other than to launch software. I have been using windows 8 since it went rtm and the guy i work with only just noticed it wasn't 7. Bar the speed boost squared edges and the start screen it will all be very familiar. This idea that it looks and works diff is just over exaggerated the real change is under the bonnet with hardware acceleration and active x etc stuff you wont see but you will notice.

Also i cant express enough how important a dedicated graphics card is if you need to work with 3d graphics. Also if cash is an issue hit up amd systems you get way more bang to the pound though if you have unlimited funds its intel i7 all the way :)
[Windows 8 General] circleofomega:
That was exactly my question & thanx a ton for answering that...i7 is what I was looking for..

I'm from India and yes, I can very much build my own rig (the current one is done by me, running around in all the shops)

I totally get what you guys are saying & it makes complete sense, so Touch is out from my list.

But here is a deeper confusion...

What motherboard and what graphics card..?

My cabinet currently houses a DGP31 Intel mobo, 4GB RAM, Nvidia 9400GT card that is 512MB (all this while I thought it was 1GB...duh...)

But I don't know what Intel it is.. - iWhat?

Now getting a proper upgrade would mean I will need a better graphics card AND a good motherboard...

Suggestions for both are welcome...

And 3D work includes Rhino CADD 3D and rarely 3DS MAX...And Photoshop for me.. :)

Thanks both u guys..u have been very helpful...

What is this that... the + in the circle, left of the vibrate icon. (Screen shot included)

I looked on google and I can't find this "turn on notification" option...

Location services are off.

It's still part of the notifications. When they are turned on you get 3 lines to three right of it

Hey everyone, I am trying to modify youtube app to fix HQ video playback, as I've observed that MX video player can play all videos below 700p, I've posted the results HERE with details. I want to know that if we disable hardware accelaration in youtube.apk, then will it use s/w decoding only ?

Here is what I tried-

1.Decompile the youtube.apk using apktool

2.Opened androidmanifest.xml using notepad++

3.Started looking for something interesting

4.I found the android:hardwareAccelerated="true" in line number 22 (Refer the snap attached)

5.I changed the "true" to "false" and then tried compiling youtube.apk but it resulted in a lot of errors which I didn't understood :p

-- Please try this and see if you could compile back the youtube.apk..

-- Tell me if modding the youtube.apk is useless ? :p
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rr0yy:
I appreciate your effort.. logically your idea should work but dont know if it will.

First you need to sign the apk.

My guess is.. you changed the value to false but that doesnt mean.. it wil take S/W decoding as default. You might need to add lines to enable S/W decoding as default plus MX's path.. where it can find the player and s/w decoding!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RockR172:
By "hardwareAccelerated=true", it just means that the app UI gets rendered by Hardware.. It doesnt mean HW or SW Decoding...

Sorry but this isnt gonna work..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
that's the only thing to test :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RockR172:
What do you wanna test?

Its totally useless, whatever you still wanna test.. that string clearly means the UI and not the Video!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rr0yy:
I think RockR is right!!

I have a question.. is it the default player where Yt video is buffered and played or its a different one which might come with Yt app..??

I think we need to set MX player as default for all the video playbacks.. even streamed ones in the Rom not the Yt app!!

Hello,

I decided tyo go ahead and try to flash CM10 on my phone and when I did it got stuck at the HTC boot screen upon reboot.

I followed all the detailed instructions and this still happened to me. I figured that I could go ahead and apply the stock rom back just like in other cases of a soft-brick. However, this time upon updating it gave me the "Main version is older! error Press Power to reboot" when installing the stock RUU. Seeing as hansoons tool has a fix for that I apply it and it gives me now "Hboot version is older Press Power to reboot." This is now where I am stuck at. My phone is S-ON and I cannot find a way to turn S-OFF without actually booting into the actual OS. Is there a way and a different route I could take to un-brick my phone? Thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
are you using 43xt recovery? if not you need to use it since your s=on

and to get it to boot, use his tool to put that recovery on. and then reflash the cm10 rom. then it should work.

i believe that when you flashed it the kernel didnt boot.

I had this same problem yesterday and corrected it by doing the following you need to put the phone into fastboot mode hold down power + power down once bootloader comes up click power again plug your USB in go into CMD (If On windows) CD to C drive then cd to the folder you put the files in below and run fastboot flash boot boot.img. The boot.img is going to be the boot.img from the rom you are using. This worked for me yesterday. When installing a rom make sure you clear Dalvik Cache,Cache & Wipe Data Factory Reset as well as formating your SD Card. Then toggle USB and copy the ROM over I would use 4EXT it is the best recovery out there.

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/102426750/XDA%20Dev/HTC%20Amaze.zip

Put these files in a folder in the root of your C drive. Once you cd into that folder with these files run the commands above

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MercuryStar:
Yes there's a setting for this.

What you are seeing is sharpening that is added to the screen by default (note - it won't be saved in your drawing, it's added by the Note's screen). There is a setting called "Screen mode" (if I remember correctly) under "Display". If you change this to "Movie" it disables the colour boost and the sharpening. You'll still have good colour and sharpness, it just won't have extra boost applied.

Setting this to movie was one of the first things I did, after I realised everything was over-sharpened and over-saturated. They do this so it looks good in a showroom next to a bunch of other displays by other manufacturers. On its own you probably will prefer accuracy over mega-saturation and mega-sharpness.
