Never going to get a smooth browser with flash, if you don't have a dedicated chip for Adobe flash acceleration...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] clubtech:
It is not Flash that is slowing it down.

Disable it and you will see.

On the Droid X the browser is by far smoother WITH flash enabled.

There is something else going on here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fane1:
Yes the problem is that with flash enable,the available memory is gone making the phone so slow to scroll etc.Its a memory management problem
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] android53:
Agree, we have far too little useable ram, and the browser is using way too much.

Opening pocketnow.com uses 120mb ram on jpa, it causes a fc and memory dump.

We barely have 120mb useable to begin with!

Very very annoying... Time to start posting on samsung facebook page
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dcarr622:
Flash is not the problem. I don't think any sane person runs Flash "always on" on the galaxy s unless they enjoy feeling frusterated.

With flash off, scrolling is pretty bad, pinch to zoom is pretty bad. It varies from pretty good to terrible.

I don't like my phone being whooped by a 9 month old Nexus One in terms of browsing performance, when mine has better specs!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] huxflux2003:
Maybe Opera Mobile, which is coming out this month, is the solution. Opera browsers are always very very fast.

Also, has anyone hands-on experience with the Galaxy Tab? How is the browser performance there?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dcarr622:
I hope that Opera will be good. Thing is, the Froyo browser should be absolutely amazing on this phone but Samsung screwed it over. Hopefully Cyanogen can take care of it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ivanchin99:
I just opened pocketnow.com and it's perfectly smooth..

I have no complains with my froyo browser except it has problem downloading from megaupload.

Have you tried auto killer?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mdalacu:
O loved Opera Mobile on WM, let is hope that on Android it will be equally good. I can't wait for it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Connecter:
Why have Dolphin HD and xscope the same problem with the ram? I check it both have 100 MB two. (pocketnow)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ijat91:
Really slow although flash set to off, never experience it on eclair JM8/JM9

any patch that can fix it?? really annoying...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] flypubec:
The problem is free RAM. It's slow when I have many bacground programes/services. If I kill them all, then it's lightning fast.

I think we should really try to make more usable RAM available on Galaxy S
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Frasp:
It amazes me that when you tap to type an URL, the text is not selected like under2.1. That is just so very annoing. Makes me wonder if the retards at Samsung ever used the phone before they released this piece of **** update.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] huxflux2003:
There is a fix for this. Download ASTRO file manager. Go to its settings and tick "Allow browser downloads".
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] drferk:
On Iphone 4 scroll is a bit smoother but if u scroll faster on long page then "chess table" is there like 3gs so Iphone 4 browser is not better.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Diegotom78:
Ich will donate for a browser fix!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] franklin01:
What about app2nand? If we move browser, flash, and screen scrolling to nand it should be faster. Also the main problem is ram: a lot of program abd services are launched automaticaly abd there should be a way to disable them without using autokill or taskiller.

Hi all,

Are there any hd2 leo android builds which support usb host/usb flash memory? I've tried Froyostone and mdeejay froyohd without luck (using a Y-cable, flash usb stick and external power).

I think with android being on the SD card having a 2nd external memory would be really useful (I keep changing movies and music on the card and it's a real pain to take the microsd card out and reboot...). I think someone developed a driver for the nexus one but it never really got beyond that.

Cheers,

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kashifmeh:
Hello,

I currently have a FRG33 with clockwork recovery. I would like to roll back to a stock FR91 with stock Nexus one recovery.

Can anyone provide a link to the relevant articles and files? I have tried googling it numerous times but unable to get to the answer.

Many thanks in advance.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
My signature has a link in bold...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kashifmeh:
In the wiki, the section on restoring your Nexus is empty. There is no content except on recovery images, which is not relevant here.

Which section are you actually referring to????
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
The Wiki is built in a bit weird way. Each section is a link, and the subsections you see only show what's in the link. You have to actually press on the link to get somewhere.

For example, subsection "Unroot / restore your Nexus" is under section "Guides and tutorials", which is a link. Press it, and you'll get where you wanted to.

There's a huge load of content in the Wiki, just not on the first page.

In your case, since you have a working recovery, you don't need anything special - just download stock image of FRF91, with recovery and all (PASSIMG), and flash it through recovery like you would for any other update.

Hello

I have a problem installing Android 2.2 on SD card 15 gb

What could be due to the problem?

Thank you.

Try reformating your SDcard.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malaeus:
i have never heard of a 15GB, do you mean a 16GB?

also, look at the class of it, it needs to be at the very very least a class4.

and i think the card is just too big, i heard many other people reporting the issue.

if your card is from tmoUS, it is a class 2 and is not fast enough to run it.

try an 8GB class6 for 25$US on newegg.com

see the 6 in the C. thats how you tell what class it is.

ALSO! this type of question should have been posted in the GENERAL section. as this does not have anything to do with DEVELOPMENT.

thank you.

as far as i know, its the best format to use
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mateuszd:
Hey,

Someone had a similar problem before and I advised them to put some data into the clean SD card (1GB of music for example) and then put Android's files.

It fixed it for me and the other person (we had the same problem).

Try it and good luck.

[Streak 5 General] dkwelton:
Is froyo better functioning and looking than the official o2 2.1 rom? Because right now I'm on the 2.1 and it feels super fast I just don't think I can live without flash
[Streak 5 General] navrac:
Well its a beta so it has a few minor bugs - just a question if you can live with them.

Personally the pro's far outweigh the cons, but you may have different requirements so...

Speed - Much much faster, Flash - Awesome and you get access to lots of froyo apps.

So far the bugs I'm aware of that have been reported by multiple users (I 've ignored single person reports as they are often because people forget to reboot/haven't read the instructions/already had the fault - I've also ignored a few that have been reported which are based on people not understanding what they are seeing or have ignored the solution when its been put to them or are based on 'it seems slower doing xyz or the battery discharges faster' - I've flashed back and forward and tested 2.1 v's 2.2 and the gps is not slower to first lock and the battery drain is pretty much identical. Sorry it wasn't meant to be an essay but reading the modaco forum you would think it doesn't work at all!

So this is the list of bugs that I have been able to replicate -

1. the sensor sometimes gets stuck to it doesn't switch landscape/portrait 100% of the time - probably the most irritating bug but no biggy

2. Some apps don't appear in the market - but it only seems to be 1 or 2 and if you ask in the forums, someone will send you a direct link to the apk file

3. Froyos inbuilt tethering only works on USB but there are a couple of free ones which work fine.

4. Pausing a track in the music player brings up a 'cannot play this file message' so you either have to go back or forward a track to resume.

5.radio channels 12 and 13 aren't accessible on wifi

6. camcorder wont run at 720p

err that's it - unless you run at one of the non standard screen densities which introduces a few minor problems.

Personally I'd say if you are happy doing the flashing then go for it.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:

[Streak 5 General] navrac:
Read to the end of the modaco thread - you have to clear the market data - he's also just removed the build so he can tweak a problem that's been introduced with the camera.

We shouldn't really be discussing this here otherwise we will get the mods wrath, better keep to the builds thread.

Edit: Oops I think I posted this in wrong place and am not sure how to move it so if somebody could that would be cool.

I am pretty new to programming and have tried very unsuccessfully adding contacts from my phone into my app.

Simply put I want the user to hit a button and their contacts will pop up and upon clicking one of the contacts it returns their phone number.

If anyone can point me in the right direction or help that would be awesome! I have been able to have the contacts names pop up but not both the names and the numbers or just the numbers either every time I get close the app just force closes.

P.S. If at all possibly I want to keep the target to stay at android 1.6 but I would rather get it working than worry about that.

Hi, all! I happened upon this theme thread for CM6 Stable,(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=795564&highlight=blackred) over on the HERO side, and have installed one(BlackPink) on my wife's HERO. I installed the BlackRed to my EVO, and it works for about 30 seconds then starts rebooting itself. Basically, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to "port" this over for the EVO. I have asked Qoaxis (the OP) if it was alright, and he said it was okay. Right at the moment, my time is spent with my kids (5, one on the way) and work. I literally have NO time. Also, I have no idea how to do this. I have downloaded the "theme-porter", but I know I won't have ANY of the time it will take to learn this, right now. These really look great on the HERO, and from what I HAVE seen on my EVO, I really like it and I think some more EVO users might, as well. There are 8 themes in all and they, in my opinion, are sharp. I have attached the zip file for the BlackRed theme. You can jump to the thread (see above) and see all 8. Again, these themes are for CM6 Stable. I don't know if that will make a huge difference (i.e. HERO to EVO). Thanks, for your consideration.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
All you need to do is copy in the zImage and .ko files. The .ko files go in the "modules" folder, a subdirectory of "root."
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] v-b-n:
Most of the kernels will come with following files :

zImage - The Kernel

bcm4329.ko - Wireless Module

tun.ko - Networking Module

yaffs.ko - File System (Optional at this time)

The way I apply the kernel is shut down the phone and use card reader and attach to my laptop. Assuming your build is under SDCARD\Android, files are copied to following locations :

zImage -> Android

*.ko -> Android\root\system\lib\modules

Anything to do with the lights modules goes to Android\root\system\lib\hw

Anything to do with RIL (like libril*) goes to Android\root\system\lib

Create the \root\system\lib\* directories if they dont exist, like for Sense builds. Now just back normally.

Hope it helps :)

What if a certain developer updates his android build and version, do I just copy the new stuff on the SD card, overwrite, and keep the Image iso file so I dont lose my settings ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] attractor:
Do any of the above and finally to verify that a kernel is installed start Terminal Emulator (or any available terminal program) and enter:

uname -r

Should give you the kernel version.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RedWave31:
Hmmm usually, what I do is either connecting the phone in USB in Windows Mobile mode, or power off and use a micro-SD card reader. Then:

- BACKUP the DATA.IMG to desktop or whatever

- Delete the root directory in your Android folder if there is one

- Delete all the .something directories (temp dir created by android)

- Copy the content of the kernel in the Android dir : Haret (emulator), initrd.gz (boot logo), zImage (drivers/kernel)

>Ignore the dev folder in hastarin build for example

>DO COPY the "root" folder (of hastarin 7.6 for example) to the android folder : HARET will update the android OS "suppletive drivers parts" without any need to enter commands or else (what i've been told)

Done :-)

I got a text this morning, it read ...

Apparently I "subscribed" to this service before I rooted when I got my phone replaced the other week.

Trouble is I don't have this app any more as I am using Cyanogenmod, I tried to install it from a backup to no avail, also I am unable to go back to stock either as their is no orange RUU.

Before I call orange and tell them to void my warranty (because I am rooted) and cancel the subscription anyone have any clever ideas??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AjUK:
Try downloading it? http://traffictv.orange.co.uk/

I accidentally subscribed and even with the app, it wasn't the easiest thing to unsubscibe.

Failing that ask OrangeHelpers on twitter to cancel it. Problem is they won't be back until monday. Otherwise play dumb, call customer services don't mention rooting etc...It will be easier for them to cancel it on their system than to talk you through it.

I have googled this question in many different phrases and searched this forum as well and can't find the answer...perhaps im just not using the right phrase to search and if this has been answered, i would be truly grateful if someone would provide me a link or just point me the direction to find the answer.

Basically what i want is something that lets me wake the phone up by pushing maybe any of the buttons at the bottom or even the volume buttons. I know there is an app like nolock that does this but i dont want to lose my lockscreen...i just want to be able to wake up the phone without pushing the power. This reason comes from a thread i saw about people getting a crack near the power button and slowly working its way down the screen...so i want to push the button as little as possible. (Im really paranoid)
