[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psp888:
Is flash 10.1 beta hardware accelerated? Video isn't 100% smooth, I read on engadget froyo walkthrough that hardware acceleration wasn't enable yet on their beta, but is the public beta HW accelerate enabled?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnner:
Yeah, it's not what I was expecting. Here's hoping (for Adobe's sake) that it's not hardware accelerated yet. Is there any GPU resource monitor available? Would that necessarily show you if it's accelerated?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nDrg:
Sites which haven't been optimized for mobile flash don't perform flawlessly but those that have been (Miniclip.com etc) work extremely well. It feels as if you're playing games locally installed :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iammuze:
theres not any hardware acceleration to be done on the nexus. flash just uses the cpu like normal flash, hardware acceleration refers to using a gpu (something the n1 is missing)

Porn on my nexus runs smooth! Large flash files aren't the quickest, but remember, this is BETA!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheek360:
its still in beta, so we will see i guess. regardless its a step forward.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altarity:
I think the answer is "sort of."

From the Android Flash readme:

Flash on Android supports software decoding for all the same H.264 profiles as Flash on the desktop, and uses the hardware decoder for videos using H.264 Baseline Profile and Level <= 3.2.

There are also a lot of Known issues in rendering in the readme file. My own subjective test was running Bejewled Blitz in Facebook. It ran a little better (smoother) on my nexus than with my acer aspire netbook with a 1.2 GHZ atom. This was much better than I was expecting given that it's still beta.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheek360:
i find that as long as I have atleast 220mb of ram free, bangbus runs just find. the video is smooth, the audio is too but its a little out of sync at times. I once caught my browser using up 105mb of ram and the phone was running at 104 degrees too. Im running pershoots oc kernel, and it helped smooth out the flash a bit.
[EVO 4G General] richardrk:
Alright Guys and Gals, I've searched high and low and I still cannot find an answer...

Does anybody know if Sprint's $449.00 or so Full Retail Price is the same at Best Buy? Or is it higher?
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
The Best Buy full retail is $600. RadioShack is $500.

Best Buy told me that they will not price match it.
[EVO 4G General] ihakr:
It's a shame....

since sprint is the only one that has the $450 price tag, has anyone tried to buy an off contract device from sprint? I have a feeling that I will not find a sprint store that will sell it off- contract right away or they are out of stock. So I hope I can order it from sprint's website and have it overnighted to my house.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
My local Sprint store told me that they would have no problem selling it to me at full-retail (since I wasn't eligible for a full upgrade), but I ended up getting an I/O EVO.
[EVO 4G General] ltracte:
are you absolutely sure its going to be that much more? that doesnt make any sense at all. i already pre-ordered at BB. can i get my deposit back? i dont want to have to pay an extra 150, since im not getting it with a 2 year contract!
[EVO 4G General] watzone69:
I'm afraid it's true my friend.

http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-4g/78086-600-off-contract-says-bestbuy.html

I was shocked too and didn't want to believe it at first. I went to the Best Buy where I had pre-ordered and asked. they told me it would be somewhere between $600-$700 full price.

The good news is that you should be able to get a refund. I was able to, after I told them that I had since found out that I was not eligible for an upgrade.

If you want to pre-order at Radio Shack you had better hurry (if you're in a big city) because they are sold out of pre-order gift cards here in Austin.

I've decided to get in line at the Sprint store. Verrrrrry early in the morning, if not the night before!
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
glad i have a upgrade to burn
[EVO 4G General] watzone69:
Congratulations! I'm jealous but more-so I'm happy for you.

If it wasn't for your "heads-up" about the overpriced Best Buy pre-order in your thread a while back, I would have had a nasty surprise on the 4th!

I notice you already added it to your signature.:D
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Thanks! The Best Buy thing surprised me too, but after I found out that they still charge $600 for the Hero and $630 for the Moment it quickly became obvious. For anyone wondering, they will give you a full refund. Just go in and tell them that you didn't know they were going to mark up the price when you pre-ordered. I paid with debit, and they gave me back my full $50+tax in cash.
[General Questions and Answers] michael-knight:
Is there anyway to backup the rom of a device directly to the computer?

I was thinking something like dd commands on linux.

The problem is, I have a 2GB MicroSD card and 2GB is apparently too big for my PDA to handle for ROM Backup. I've heard that 128MB and 256MB cards work great but they're hard to find these days and I don't like waiting :P.

Is there anyway to back up the ROM without SD?

Thanks in advance.

My phone shortcut states: 'Application is not installed on your phone'

I reinstalled the aosp dialer but no love yet.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nemphys:
Same thing here... I was using CM 5.0.5.3, tried to flash Froyo (from Modaco), but there where too many FCs, so I flashed CM 5.0.6 first (everybody says you can flash Froyo on top of this without wiping; I dare not wipe), and then Froyo.

Everything seems to work fine after that, EXCEPT dialer app and contacts app...

No icons for these apps in the App menu and when tapping the new dialer icon of the launcher, I get the massage "Application not installed on your phone"...

I even tried to wipe the cache for these 2 apps with no result.

This cannot be happening to just the two of us, guys, please help!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crackness:
Did you try clearing defaults? Sounds like somethings not compatible with Froyo, but it doesn't know to go back to the default dialer...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aviz71:
I have your same problem.

The default are clean, but no icon for contacts and dialer, and the button says application not installed.... :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drrdave27:

Hey guys, I had the same problem after upgrading to MoDaCo r17 from r3.1. Full data wipe fixed this issue for me. (after nandroid backup of course) Hope this helps. Pea's
[HD2 General] 10507:
I just bought a HTC HD2 from tmobile. I don't have data plan, and would like to prevent my phone from accessing data plan. Is there any thing I can do to prevent phone from accessing the data, just don't want to pay for data plan fee.
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Try NoData. Also, how much did you pay for the phone if you don't mind me asking?

Cheers.
[HD2 General] 10507:
Do you have the link for NoData? I traded in my nokia nuron, which was free when sign up with tmobile, for the HD2. I end up paying extra $100 for the HD2. So out of pocket, I paid $100 for the phone.......Hope that was a good deal
[HD2 General] JC_Agga:
Very interesting. I've been tmobile customer since last 2009. I had European Touch Pro 2 and i went with even more plus plan which means you are buying no contract devices, i don't pay data plan. and i never paid single penny for not having data plan. I know when i accidently pressed internet, and my phone was connected to 3g, but i never paid it. I was assuming that tmobile didn't charged me for not having data plan. Weird.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I'm pretty sure this is the one that poisonwolf is referring to, I used it for that purpose on my TP2.
[HD2 General] PoisonWolf:
Hey Phunkee,

Was the NoData app updated for Windows Mobile 6.5? I didn't really follow it too closely. I'm also not certain if there were major internal registry restructuring for Windows Mobile 6.5.

P.S. I caved. :p
[HD2 General] a_ok2me:
I'm using pay per use.

I don't use HTC Sense so I don't have to worry about this. I have not tried the cab file, but there are manual options to turn off automatic data download. If HTC Sense is on, select Weather => Menu => Settings and unselect Download Data Automatically. The options are the same for the Stock ticker.
[HD2 General] tazz9690:
What I have done in the past when I have given my brother my old smart phones is I call up and tell them to block data on the phone. This last time however, I gave him my myTouch 3G and all I did was make sure that his line didn't have data. Even though his phone says 3G on it, when you try to connect to the internet, it doesn't load.
[HD2 General] onslaught86:
You can also use BsB tweaks to disable the data connection - I do this when my 200MB monthly allowance runs out.
[HD2 General] robrob777:
BSB tweaks

BSB tweaks> menu> data connections> disable

I also like to press the phone button,> menu options> change baseband> Network type: GSM. this turns off 3g.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I sent you a PM ;)
[HD2 General] magic_man:
If you got a discount on the phone you will have to pay the data plan.
[HD2 General] TrekkerJmm:
I just got the $20 unlimited plan from T-mo. I have been with them for 5 years and read somewhere on XDA that T-mo was offering (but not telling everyone) about the plan. I was paying $24.99 originally and after reading the post I called them and was switched. I have unlimited web and email also works well...Tj
[HD2 General] jfmckenna:
+1 yea i did that too, had to speak with 2 different customer service reps but was totally worth it.
[HD2 General] toreone:
I think you might be able to go to Comm Manager and click on the Data Connection and click it to off?!
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Yeah that will work to switch it off immediately at any time, but doing that still allows apps to call up the 3G connection again whenever they want. The cab should make it so that nothing can access data, even processes that normally use it to auto-update (weather, twitter, etc)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bender101:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
That's not happening on mine, so I'd say it's not normal.

Side note...what website are you guys trying to test out Flash?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
^ isnt that the message you get when you try and do crap with the phone before it has finished booting all the way up?

I played some games on armor games... it was okay. Flash is still in beta and I dont think its hardware accelerated yet (like some others are saying)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nDrg:
Try miniclip.com, you can play the games that were previewed on the video from adobe plus loads more.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bender101:
I've rebooted it a few times and left it alone and I still get the message. I've also tried repeating the installation steps and that didn't fix it either. If I click force close or wait the phone continues to work and it doesn't pop up again, but it's a bit annoying.

Download files and place on SD card:

update-nexusone-FRF50-noradio-signed.zip from Modaco.com (May 24: noradio files added - should work fine for T-Mo & AT&T!)

froyo-rooter-signed.zip from Cyanogen

Titanium Backup -> Backup all user apps

Turn off phone -> Hold Volume Down, then Press Power button

Enter Recovery

Backup/Restore -> Nand backup

Wipe if you have a Sense UI ROM (no wipe needed coming from Cyanogen)

Flash update-nexusone-FRF50-signed.zip

Reboot, you'll get Android-falling-out-of-box

It will reboot into Recovery, select Reboot again

It should boot into 2.2, yay!

You should still have root, but if you want BusyBox (or lost root somehow), Cyanogen has done it again! Go back into Recovery and flash froyo-rooter-signed.zip. Then Titanium Backup will work once again.

AT&T users in the Modaco thread have said it worked. Here's one poster who's done it:

Though as the previous person said, you may have to remove the radio.img in the zip. I'm totally not sure. Has anyone here done it?

Loving Froyo so far. I flashed Pauls version since I did not want to go back to stock.

With that said:

1 - What is the best way to show off what Flash can do? I know Hulu is not working (at least for me). Would like to see what it can do... something impressive (other than flash on my phone of course, ha).

2 - Now that I am stock (still rooted with Amon Recovery) I am already missing the track ball to wake up my phone. If I want to keep it stock (for now), is there a way I can make this mod myself without flashing a developers ROM?

3 - What is everyones fav feature of 2.2?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nDrg:
1) Try miniclip.com, some awesome games can be found there.

2) Chances are we'll have to deal with stock 2.2 until CM etc bring out their own releases.

Here's recompiled APK for 2.1. It installs, but browser does not "see" it. Here's explanation why.

Android 2.2 has a new feature called com.google.android.feature.GOOGLE_PLUGIN. And Flash usesit to embed itself inside browser. So browser in 2.1 does not see plugin.

BUT!There's another thing inside - a permission called android.webkit.permission.PLUGIN. It is already used by Flash Lite on HTC devices. So my APK will work and replace Flash Lite. But I did not test, because I do own... Acer Liquid!

So! HTC users! Try this one! And if it will work instead of your flash lite - report. Your help will be used to port full-blown Flash to other 2.0 and 2.1 devices (yeah! 2.0 is also supported!).

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr0gmint:
The last couple of hours I've been frantically trying to cook together a working ROM.

So far, this is what i've done:

*Replacing 2.6.33 kernel with Paul's "Custom Kernel" which is 2.6.29.

*Replacing&editing init scripts

Especially with the init scripts, my question is, are these the main parts of concern regarding a port?

In other words, am i on the right track, or is this much harder than i think? :S

Btw i don't think i'll get done with this before a ROM gets released, its just for interests sake
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vodrin:
I thought the main problem was Froyo needing a 2.6.33 kernel and having to port Desire specific code into a 2.6.33 kernel so replacing it with 2.6.29 wouldn't work
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deovferreira:
Se the other froyo thread, I posted some quick instructions on how to boot a semi-working rom. There's no service and graphics are glitchy, also no wifi but that is just a matter of copying the right module, I didn't bother doing that.

There should be no dependency on a specific kernel version, but 2.6.33 is faster. I have also been trying to port cyanogen's 2.6.33 kernel but it's not as easy as it seems, there are many caveats and it did not boot yet.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr0gmint:
Could the fact that MoDaCo's boot.img from rootedupdate.zip works, be related to it having an extra stage attached besides kernel and ramdisk?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr0gmint:
I tried unpacking & repacking the boot.img you mention. And it doesn't boot :confused:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr0gmint:
Could you post a link to this kernel?

I have managed to make it boot other kernels, by writing my own boot.img packing scripts.
