Hi,

I've been trying to flash my Xperia SP to 12.0.A.1.257 as per the thread "How-to for rooting newest firmware 12.0.A.2.245".

I currently have 12.0.A.2.254 installed, and I understand that I need to flash my kernel to 12.0.A.1.257 to be able to root. Flashing to 257 seems to be successful, please see the log below.

Hello,

i cant get any calendar app to work. Google Calendar wont start if 'Calendar Storage 4.4' is running (unfortunately has stopped), if its disabled i cant create Calendars or Events (stuck in 'loading...'). Other Apps like aCalendar or Business Calendar start, but im not able to create local calendars. Whats the problem here? i searched the internet but cant find any solution for my problem. Im running the psx v1 rom.

hi,

actually, i can assign any of the phone buttons, but they still don't work in the game. anyone know how i can get it to work? registry/system hack or something?

thanks,

msafi,
[General Topics] vijay555:
What do they do when you assign and press the keys?

V
[General Topics] msafi:
vijay555, they do nothing. nothing at all.

this problem is consistent not only with PocketNester, but also with any other application. the phone buttons aren't assign-able to any functionality. again, they may be assigned successfully, but they still woudn't work when you try to actually use them.

fixing this problem would add a lot to my device's functionality.
[General Topics] vijay555:
msafi: what device are you using, and what OS? You might consider setting these details in your profile to make it easier to respond, or post in a more specific thread. However, generally, consider using the application AEButtonPlus to make the red and green phone buttons assignable.

You can use my program VJKeyPress to assign certain keys to the red and green keys, and then assign them using PocketNester (hopefully).

V
[General Topics] msafi:
vijay555, thanks for the reply. i''m using HTC Wizard with WM5 of course. AE button plus isn't compatible,

so in light of this new information, do you still recommend VJKeyPress?

thanks
[General Topics] vijay555:
Are you sure AEButtonPlus isn't compatible? I'm using a universal and it's ok, but I'm sure a few guys are using it on the Wizard.

However, if not AEButtonPlus, I think buttonMax might be compatible.

VJKeypress is merely to assign a notional key to the red/green buttons. These buttons normally generate an F4 and F5 (I think) keycode, but while the cprog.exe app is running, this will intercept them. So either kill the phone app (VJPhoneToggle will do that) or assign new keypresses to them using AE etc and VJKeyPress.

V
[General Topics] msafi:
i tried closing the phone application by using VJPhoneToggle but that didn't produce the desired effect.

ae button plus works with HTC Wizard but it screws up the hold button.

any how, i tried ae button plus and was able to assign the green/red buttons to different functions. i tried assigning them to <None> then using them with PocketNester, but that didn't produce any good results. I tried assigning them <start menu> or <Ok/Close> and then assigning those in PocketNester by using the qwerty keyboard, but that still didn't work.

anyway, there is something i'd like to try. i want to assign the red button to a VJKeyPress which will press the Explorer key, and assign the explorer key to the button i want in the emulator.

the problem is, i don't know how to use VJKeypress. after i download and install the file, how do i run it with commandline shortcut? or what's a commandline shortcut?

thanks,
[General Topics] msafi:
ok, i figured out how to use vjtools and command lines.

however, i couldn't determine the parameter number to pass to vjkeypress to simulate a hardware button press. for example, what is the parameter number that will simulate a press on the Explorer button of my HTC Wizard?

what i tried in PocketNester is: i assigned the Windows Key of my Wizard's qwerty to the B button of PocketNester. Then i assigned a vjkeypress.exe 91, which is a start menu click, to the red phone button, but that didn't produce the desired effect, of course, since i didn't really tie the red button to the Windows Key of my qwerty keyboard. i just made the two buttons have the same functionality!!

if i know what the Explorer button parameter is, i will try it.
[General Topics] vijay555:
I'm not really familiar with the keyboard of the Wizard, never used one.

There's obviously a long list of keycodes on my website, but have you tried assigning any test key and tried that in PocketNester? Obviously if the basic idea doesn't work, there's no point in you perservering with this route!

Hi! So i have a nephew who is about 1yr 4 months old, and he loves playing with my phone and my N7 tablet. Of course he does ocassionally get very emotional and sometimes is very rough with his toys so he would sometime toss my phone or tablet.

I was thinking of getting him a nice tablet he could play with and interact and just learn how to work with technology at a young age. I have looked around a bit and i saw some like the NAVI and some other really cheap looking vtec ones.

Im looking for something that is pretty tough, will last at least a year. and preferably runs android ICS+ in a child friendly manner.

I was hoping you guys (those of you with children) could give me some great recommendations.

My main three citeria are: Price ( cheaper the better ) , Toughness, and OS.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surviveland:
Got the new Nexus 5 and found that flash video playing is totally incompatible with the Android 4.4 Kitkat, no t in Dolphin, not in Firefox and other browsers. This is too bad and I can't imagine it just happened.:mad::mad::mad:

I digged into the code since then and found that some critical APIs have been removed from Android 4.4 that flash uses. DAMN IT!

open failed: cannot locate symbol"_ZN7android10Vectorlmpl19reservedVectorlmpl6Ev" referenced by "libflashplayer.so:..

After several days of coding, I finally found a way out with a hacked flash player. Being so excited and i can't wait wo share it. Here is the guide about how to install the hacked one and how to play flash content in the sites in Dolphin Browser.

1) Download Dolphin Browser

Surprised, Dolphin just push a 10.2.0 update version to me and I found Dolphin Jetpack was built-in. This means you don't have to install 2 separate APK now. Cheers！！

Here is the Download Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser

Warning: [/B]You must have Dolphin Jetpack on in the settings to enjoy it. As far as I have noticed, Dolphin Jetpack better solves the compatibility with flash player, such as crash issue & freeze issue in full screen.

2) Download the hacked flash player HERE

Warning: Make sure that you have uninstall the flash player installed in your device and then install the hacked one for compatibility reason.

If your devices refused to install apk outside Google Play, you may set in your device (Settings> Securities> Unknown resources) to allow installation of apps from unknown sources.

3) Make sure that the flash setting in Dolphin Browser (Click Menu>Settings>Web Content>Flash Player) is on.

Flash Player is not officially supported and therefore the speed of loading of flash video may be slow. However, I have tried many sites such as YouTube and Hulu. They all work properly with satisfactory results.:cool:

Great thanks to [MENTION=4570798]techfanatic9[/MENTION] for recording the video about How to Install Flash Player on Any Android KitKat Phone!

This isn't working for my Nexus 7 (2013). Uninstalled original flash and installed the hacked version and latest dolphin browser and the jetpack add-on. Restarted the tablet and nothing. Testing on the adobe.com flash page shows "Couldn't load plug-in" message.

Anyone have any suggestions? Running kitkat 4.4 (KRT16S)

EDIT:

Well for those of you who are having the above issue. I uninstalled dolphin and jet pack and the hacked flash player. I then reinstalled dolphin and jetpack. Then I reinstalled the hacked flash player. Now its working. Goes to show that older piece of software always leave trace elements behind.

I found it must be set to "always on". On Demand never worked for me and I believe the original instructions state that the setting is "always on".

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJCacher:
That's weird. I have both my Nexus 5 and 2012 Nexus 7 set to "On Demand" and they're both working fine.

When I get to a page with Flash content, the area appears as an empty box with an arrow button in its center. A firm press and release of that button always loads the Flash player and content for me.

I like it that way because I don't have to see the Flash-based ads unless I am trying to actually play Flash content on any particular page.

I wonder what the difference could be? It has worked for me on 4.4, 4.4.1 and, now, 4.4.2.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobaka:
It's working on Nexus 4 with 4.4

Only thing missing is play stops when you open a new tab

Ideally it will keep playing in the background tab so you can listen to streaming or youtube while browsing.

Was able to do this with Maxthon and Firefox on 4.3

Also works that way in Puffin and Photon

We'll I'll be a monkey's uncle! I decided to go and try what you said and indeed, on demand DOES work. It didn't the first time I tried this. When I switched it over to "Always On" then it worked. I just assumed that was the issue.

Huh.

Hey,

I upgraded to KitKat 4.4.2 from 4.4.1 today and came by here to see if there is any updates in here.....just to see some Users having problems now.

TBH I never tried this fix with 4.4.1 but it did work with 4.4.0.

I tried to open youtube in Dolphin and I got instant crash of the app.

Uninstalled and reinstalled everything, when I go on the Adobe Flash Test Site the Flash Symbol shows up (so it seems to be working) but as soon as I try to go on youtube the Dolphin browser crashes.

Sometimes the Mobile site works but the Desktop Version always kills it. Tried both Android and Desktop Client settings in the browser.

Anyone got an idea?

Thanks

If I request fullsite at the bottom it reloads the fullsite page and says the same thing "not on this device". Somehow amazon is identifying that I'm on an android device that's not authorized for Prime. I don't understand how I got it to work before.

JetPack no longer needed?

Did you see the latest Dolphin update on the PlayStore? It says:

Note: For Android 4.4 Kitkat devices only, Dolphin Jetpack is now included within Dolphin, so users should manually uninstall the Dolphin Jetpack which was previous installed from Google Play.

Haven't updated yet, but wonder if this means Flash will work without Jetpack now!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drifus Dreskeke:
Flash needs jetpack to work properly with Dolphin. That statement is saying you don't have to download the extra pack anymore because it is included inside the Dolphin app for KitKat OS.

So, if you are on KitKat, uninstall the jetpack standalone app, update your Dolphin, go to settings and check if jetpack is enabled.

Btw flash working here after this procedure.

So I went back to previous Dolphin version and reinstalled jetpack.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drifus Dreskeke:
1 - Please, recheck if jetpack is enabled inside Dolphin settings because when you uninstall the jetpack standalone app and update the Dolphin you need to enable that setting again.

This will work with the flash hacked version only.

A good url to verify your flash: http://www.chemgapedia.de/vsengine/help/en/flash/

2 - Text reflow is broken here too.
