Hey guys, I tested the evo 4g multitouch input with the multitouch visualizer yesterday and found that though it does have much better tracking than the nexus one(no crossing and stuff) it does seem to have significant input lag, I do not have it on me to take a video, but download the multitouch visualizer and try moving around, the dot lags behind your finger significantly, anyone know if this is a hardware issue or just not tuned right?
[EVO 4G General] pingpongboss:
Yea I'm noticing some lag too :/ bummer
[EVO 4G General] Mecha2142:
I seriously hope this is a software/work in progress issue. I'd be severely disappointed to see HTC make such a mistake that they've avoided with past phones like the Incredible. I mean, why would they make the Evo's screen worse than the Incredible's?
[EVO 4G General] BadBoyNDSU:
This might be a deal killer for me. It is one of the reasons I've avoided Android up until now. :(
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
If there is not a software patch then I am sure FROYO will remove the problems.

I have a sneaking feeling that the camera, video and lag will be addressed at the update of Froyo 2.2
[EVO 4G General] pingpongboss:
The Droid has a more responsive screen and no axis-crossing issues like the Nexus One.

Personally I wouldn't have noticed the Evo's input lag if I hadn't downloaded the Multitouch Visualization Test from the Market.
[EVO 4G General] mrono:
wow, thats retarded, it may be a deal breaker for me.
[EVO 4G General] colorado_al:
Possible to turn off Sense UI and test again?
[EVO 4G General] theoner1:
I would love to see a comparison side by side with the Evo & the Incredible. All of the comparison I've seen are either the Evo vs. N1 or Incredible vs. N1. None of which the two are side by side. From the comparison I've seen with Evo vs. N1, the Evo is still far superior to the N1 as far as multitouch goes. In that case I'm not to worried.
[EVO 4G General] tatnai:
deal breaker? no lag in the UI, but lag on one program that tests multi-touch and it's a deal breaker?

at least test out actual multitouch functions, if there is lag there than maybe a deal breaker, otherwise I fail to see how this is definitely an evo problem; maybe it is a problem of the program on the phone. I'll take real use over test program for my deal breaker.
[EVO 4G General] pingpongboss:
As much as I'd like to believe otherwise, the same program running on my Droid is a bit more responsive.
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
But this is just a perceived problem running this test program, correct? I have read no negative issues regarding screen response in any of the reviews...
[EVO 4G General] pingpongboss:
Whether or not people notice the lag while doing everyday tasks, that's a different problem. I already stated that I DON'T notice the lag doing other stuff.

But the multitouch visualization test running on both Droid and Evo shows that the Evo does indeed have some bit of input lag.
[EVO 4G General] Dorick:
i wont call it a deal breaker but its definitely there.
[EVO 4G General] zonyl:
+1

Is the Multi-Touch test app using OpenGL to render those dots? It may just be that the EVO is slower at rendering using the specific graphics API and nothing to do with the touch screen.

Overall it would appear that the current EVO is slightly slower than the Incredible (at least the benchmarks that I have seen on the web). I have also been reading that the firmware on the EVO is likely not the release version of software so for all we know these Google I/O and Advocate devices have been compiled in DEBUG / TEST code.
[EVO 4G General] catpunt:
i tried this too, and it does appear to be true.

if you run the visualizer and try single-touch and double-touch response, and then go into google maps or a webpage on the browser, then try the same test, the response seems about the same. that's why i tend to believe the visualizer. i'll bet htc simply needs to optimize their touch input handling code to eliminate the lag

i also tried this killing every other running application besides the multi-touch visualizer and got the same result. it's the same whether running the htc sense launcher or the nexus one launcher. definitely not a deal breaker though
[EVO 4G General] fazzy:
I have E-mail HTC about this and also give them my S/N of my EVO lets see what will they respond, I will let you guys know.

Thanks
[EVO 4G General] khov07:
Should be an interesting response, hopefully you don't get some auto-generated response based on keywords.

I agree with other posters, unless I see issues with actual use, I don't see this very specific application as anything near a deal-breaker. All other reports confirm that the UI experience is amazingly fast.

I'm not a developer, but my intuition says the observed lag compared to other devices has root in code that isn't optimized for this specific application.

Even if Froyo doesn't clear this up, it won't make a difference to me.
[EVO 4G General] Dorick:
Its definitely not a deal breaker, but can be annoying for things like gaming and stuff.. on normal usage, you probably won't notice it.
[EVO 4G General] mitch27:
It's most likely an input setting they put in for the phone for gesture recognition. I'm willing to bet is enough people complain about it they'll tweak it.
[EVO 4G General] pingpongboss:
I have rooted Froyo on my Evo, and I'm still seeing the same lag :(
[EVO 4G General] kellte2:
The version of 2.2 that you're applying to your rooted EVO is not optimized for the EVO. I'm sure this will be corrected if HTC is notified of the "problem."
[EVO 4G General] pingpongboss:
Yes, hopefully. Froyo does seem a bit more responsive, though I don't know if it's a placebo effect.
[Desire Themes and Apps] daveba:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrJB:
I have put Froyo on my phone early as many others have and there are a few bugs on it, so what I am wondering is when it officially comes out will there be "some" additional updates since it is already on my phone or will I have to reinstall it with the official version from the market? What I am wondering is just update any further updates from the market with the Froyo I have? or with the public release in the next couple weeks install that? does it matter? if this makes any sense what I am saying LOL

My wife and I both have the Nexus One. I decided to stay on CM 5.0.7 Test 3 until he gets the chance to work on his 2.2 rom, I'm in no hurry.

My wife wanted it on hers because she wouldn't allow me to root her phone. :)

After putting 2.2 on hers there is some pretty bad stability issues. Her phone has straight up frozen at least 8 times since yesterday requiring a battery pull.

When he phone isn't being a temperamental babby its great but when it starts to chug the whole house of cards comes crashing down.

Since I rooted mine I just make nandroid backups and restore from that so life is simple for me but with hers how do I restore back to total stock?

Do I reboot into the bootloader and at the screen where I would typically apply the update.zip just use the restore option or would the restore option in the phones settings work? I.e Factory Default.

While she is semi tech savvy I just don't have the time or patients to deal with her phone issues right now so I guess she'll just need to be on 2.1 until the official release.

sorry I am a newbie 2.2 is my first update that's why I am posting this to see if I didn't f*** up my phone or something. other than that it seems to be working fine with a few bugs here and there and 2 things updated today from the market, so am wondering leave it be or get rid of it and reinstall the official one? thnx for responses
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brownbay:
From what I understand, if you want to go back to ERE27/EPB54, you would need to either restore a Nandroid image that has those ROM's or download an unsigned original ERE27/EPB54 image.

When you say battery pull, are you actually physically pulling the battery whe the phone freezes? I've read a couple of posts/articles where that might be harmful to the phone and so what's recommended instead is to perform a soft-reboot.

You can do so by holding down the power button + volume down key + trackball at the same time. If done so correctly, the phone will automatically reboot in a few seconds.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
No can do. No unlocked bootloader = no regression. You either unlock the bootloader or live with Froyo.

I would consider a factory reset though, as I have no stability problems what so ever.

Unless you can add a JS script string to do it, it doesn't look like it without a hack of some sort.

[Nexus One General] bmj1086:
I'm pretty sure they realized what we were doing and did the smart thing. All they have to do is check your flash version and if you're on a 10.1 then they can block it. Nothing you can do to change that, that I know of.

[Nexus One General] deprecate:
To be honest, I am shocked that hulu didn't have adobe flag the android flash player with a unique id to fully prevent users from sidestepping with something as simple as user agent modification.

compile flash with client=android101 and have hulu check against client strings. Done and done.

Spoof the Flash

You need to spoof the Flash player version.

Test it here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html

The nexus one

Flash player version is "AND 10,1,61,68"

Operating system is "Linux 26.32.9-27220-"

Work laptop

Flash player version is "WIN 10,0,32,18"

Operating system is "Windows XP"

If you can figure out how to spoof these setting, more than likely you will not have any issues reaching Hulu.

I for one, do not know how to do it. But this is a good start ;)

Here is a start...

http://superuser.com/questions/91176/spoofing-flash-version
[Nexus One General] attn1:
That's probably coming from the flash player itself, which is not open source.
[Nexus One General] Devastatin:
Someone who wants HULU bad enough will figure out how to hex edit or spoof the UA string from flash.
[Nexus One General] gotwake424:
We should just make an app that spoofs the UA string then streams the video to the phone, instead of using a browser.

btw this is all engadgets fault
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
Hmm, we were all pwned quite nicely.

Too bad I guess, it wasn't working that good for me anyways.
[Nexus One General] rcgabriel:
Already done it. I took Titanium Backup's backup of Flash Player, pulled it down to my PC, hex edited the libflashplayer.so to change the Flash internal UA string to the Windows Flash 10 string.

Now I just have to figure out where to copy the modified libflashplayer back to... Any ideas on that? I don't see libflashplayer.so in the /lib directory, so not sure where it's supposed to reside. If somebody tells me, I'll test this out.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:

[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Playing video or just loading the page? I tried it this morning after the block started and Dolphin HD didn't work either. Is yours still playing video?
[Nexus One General] xanxitto:
try this!

Hi, u might wanna try going to anonymouse.com or your favorite anonymous site.

I get in the desktop version of hulu.com like that, but I don't know if you can see the flash because I have a Droid and I still don't have my Froyo update. I hope it works.

Ps. That's how I used to get into other sites that blocked Mobile versions ;)
[Nexus One General] rcgabriel:
Okay, well, I updated the Titanium Backup tarball file with my modified libflashplayer.so file, and restored from backup and that didn't puke out or anything.

And sure enough, hulu.com is now working again. I think this is going to be a bit harder for them to block. :) Anybody with Titanium backup should be able to replicate the steps I just took, and hopefully a more experienced Android hacker can just package that up in an APK to make it easier to install.

Obviously the caveat is that this might trick other sites into thinking you have a desktop Windows Flash player and they might serve different content (i.e. non-mobile-optimized) to you. I'm not knowledgeable enough on this topic to know if this is really the case or not.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
WOW NICE!

Can you upload/attach your flashplayer tar.gz?

Great work!
[Nexus One General] xanxitto:
link again.

Hey, sorry about the bad link.

Here's the right one.

anonymouse.org
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
There's two files: the tar.gz and the .properties.

I'm assuming the file to hex edit is the tar.gz, correct?

Which program did you use to open it, and how did you perform the hex edit?
[Nexus One General] rcgabriel:
EDIT: Better suggestion - rcxquake packaged the spoofed version of libflashplayer.so in a nice APK over here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=688054

I'm happy to - if you or somebody else can tell me exactly how to backup my currently installed Flash APK, I'd be happy to do it. I have the tarball and properties file from Titanium Backup that I re-packaged, but I don't know if that will work as is for others.

If you do it yourself, I can tell you exactly what I just did.

1) Open Titanium backup, backup Adobe Flash Player.

2) USB Mount your Nexus One

3) Copy com.adobe.flashplayer***.tar.gz from TitaniumBackup directory to desktop (I actually think there were two of them in there, I just picked one and guess I got lucky)

4) Pull libflashplayer.so from the tarball using 7zip

5) Open libflashplayer.so using a hex editor of your choice (I used the one from here: http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~prewett/hexedit/)

6) Search for the string "AND 10,1,61,68" and change it to "WIN 10,0,32,18"

7) Save libflashplayer.so

8) Replace libflashplayer.so in the tarball on your desktop, then copy the tarball back into the Titanium Backup directory

9) Disconnect USB mount, start up Titanium Backup again and restore from your Adobe Flash Player backup

And there you have it - the quick and very dirty way to make Flash Player spoof another user agent on Android. We might want to spoof the O/S version too, but I didn't bother with that and this worked. Video is of course a bit choppy and all that, but I think that's the same as it was yesterday.

Attached my properties and tarball file I used with Titanium Backup. BTW, after working for a few minutes, I am now getting a message from Hulu.com that their video library can only be streamed within the United States. WTF? I am in New Jersey right now, I know it's a dump, but it's still the United States last I checked.

I'll try again in a few minutes and see what's up.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Amazing. I've followed the steps and I'm almost there. How did you re-zip the tarball into a tar.gz?

I used WinRAR to unzip. Can I just create a .rar and rename to .tar.gz?

Does this work? http://www.tmsnetwork.org/blog/creating-targz-archive-easily-windows
[Nexus One General] xXJay_RXx:
nope it doesnt
[Nexus One General] rcxquake:
The fixed .apk can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=688054
[Nexus One General] rcgabriel:
I think I put it back in a tar file and then gzipped it back up as a separate step. I used 7zip though. And I imagine a .rar won't work, since I assume TitaniumBackup only eats .tar.gz files.

But I just attached my file to the previous post. Also see my note there - Hulu.com's geofilter system seems to have flagged my office IP address as "International" now and blocked me even though I'm clearly in the US - so I can now no longer access Hulu from my office desktop either.

Perhaps it's because I failed to change the O/S string and they detected the mismatch between the O/S string and the Flash version string?
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Did you have to uninstall your Flash in Titanium before installing the new version? It would only allow me to install data, not reinstall the flash player itself.

-----

Does that mean your entire office is blocked? lol

I used the apk and when I go to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html

My phone now shows WIN 10,0,32,18 but OS Linux 2.6.32.9-27220-
[Nexus One General] rcgabriel:
Mine shows the exact same thing at that page, and yes it does mean my whole office is blocked... tee hee... that's okay, no big deal really, shouldn't be watching hulu at work regardless. I'll try it at Starbucks or something again later to see if I also get blocked there. Curious to hear other people's experiences or to figure out what I did to trigger their geofilter.

Yeah, the APK package is a much easier way to get the same thing. Don't bother using my Titanium Backup tarball.
[Nexus One General] jrodizzkool01:
Even though I never visit the site, I dont even understand why Hulu is still trying to block mobile users. Why does it matter to them what device youre using to check out their site? If there's nothing wrong with watching Hulu on a portable netbook, what's so wrong with watching it on a cell phone?
[Nexus One General] rcgabriel:
Just to follow-up - I still have no idea why my office IP somehow got on the geographic ban list while I was figuring this hack out. But now that I'm at home, I'm using the hacked Flash library on my Nexus One with no problems to watch Hulu videos, and other people are using the same library via rcquake's APK file, and they are having no problems, so whatever it was, it was either temporary or just a one-off incident.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
By the way, how does the "block" come up? You can't access the site entirely, or it stops at the ads, or the ads play and then the video comes up with an error?

Also, I wonder what would happen if you logged in with a US account?

I'm scared to use Hulu at home via my home Wifi haha.

i hope to find one :(

one thing i found interesting while searching through the list of managed applications on my Incredible was, I found that theres an application similar to the one on Windows Mobile by HTC called "Streaming Media Player by HTC" but i can't find anywhere to run the application, its like its "hidden"
