[XPERIA X10 General] HYPER-X10:
Well, hopefully it is some kind of Sony developed (NOT pen-tile) OLED. But that might be asking too much.....

I don't care about resolution. It's going to be at least 480x854, which is plenty good enough imo. Any more is not really noticeable at normal viewing distances and would just lead to unnecessary cpu/gpu load. (again, just imo)
[XPERIA X10 General] MJ_QaT:
non of the models can sustain their claimed talking hours unless you plan to fully charge it and disable everything that the processor uses and then make the call :)
[XPERIA X10 General] bongd:
Yes, I always find those claims to be outrageously laughable. They should always be taken with a grain of salt. I'm just pleased that my battery does hold up well at least.

[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Hmm...not sure about Exmor. Anzu is not camera oriented. It might have the same module as the X10. Just 8MP. There will be something else carrying the Exmor sensor, and it is a full streamed camera oriented device :) The rest is pretty obvious, so no new info there really...The Xperia lineups will be oriented into different segments. Bravia, Cybershot, etc.
[XPERIA X10 General] Sewez:
I know the X10 can't sustain 10hrs of talk time, but i don't think the Nexus S will sustain the promised 6hrs (which the X10 can do in my case)

My X10 can do 2 days of standby (without heavy usage)
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Any info about the timescape plugins? because we should be getting those too for the x10.... :P
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Haven't played with the unit personally so I cannot say. There's alot of difference in terms of apps and plug-ins between Anzu and X10, but I cannot say if X10 will also get it.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Perhaps this will be part of the UXP update? I'm sure I read about extra stuff for timescape and media scape in the update, not that anyone uses them mind tbh lol
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Yes, the next update is an UXP heavy update. Performance boost plus massive Timescape + Mediascape update. I love the Mediascape :) Timescape, haven't used it much. I only use it to update my status so it shows "Update by Sony Ericsson X10" :D
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Tbh I'm not overfussed about mediascape, power amp knocks the socks off it even tho no video or photo support for music it is simply the best and iv yet really to find a use for time scape but I won't say no to a performance boost
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vigge_sWe:
So I guess you also at some point had to chose a second or third word from the word suggest popup. When you do this, every single time a screen pops up teaching you about "hidden words". I have tried and tried to find a setting to stop it, but it seems like there is no way of removing them?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jutezak:
I just remove the hidden word. Which is tedious, as I have to put it in, remove it, and anter the wanted word.

There is the option to show suggestions more or less often. I'll set it to 'never', and just tap words if a mistake is made.

Yup, this works marvelously. Just tap the words that come out wrong to correct them. No annoying popup. NO last word that gets eaten because you press send while the popup is still open.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mloc33:
I find the more you put in your own words the quicker it gets. At first I could`nt get the hang of it, but now its quicker than normal type

It looks as if the OTA update for Sense 2.3 has started to come through. I'm in the process of asking the one who got it to dump the ROM.

:D
[Desire General] anko184:
It's not Gingerbread, it's the 2.29.xxx.x version that started to roll out yesterday for many users.
[Desire General] abc27:
Did you even bother reading the link?
[Desire General] rover.prince:
Well gingerbread sdk is release see this official link

http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3.html
[Desire General] abc27:
That's not what the thread is about. Someone is saying they got a 2.3 update on their unbranded Desire to Gingerbread.
[Desire General] rover.prince:
Oh Sorry my BAD :( well I am waiting for CM Team and AdamG that soon gingerbread AOSP Rom will be in our hand.

AdamG promises that he's waiting for gingerbread as soon as it's out he's gonna update Oxygen 1.0 to Gingerbread platform for us that's why he kept it so much minimal.

Similarly CM team we know their abilities and Cyanogen and Kali they are truly the most brilliant ones and blessed one. I know soon very soon we will be enjoying gingerbread on our desire as Nexus one will get it very 1st and our Desire is closest brother to Nexus One
[Desire General] DeeJayDark UE:
Gingerbread on the Desire, in same day as Nexus????

Hard to believe.
[Desire General] Mekrel:
He didn't need to, it's not Gingerbread / 2.3
[Desire General] abc27:
:rolleyes:

Stop being so smug and just read the damn link.
[Desire General] ste1164:
Very unlikely that it is gingerbread.
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
Oke this is getting sad, he admits his update is 28mb. There is no way that gingerbread is so small, second, like mentioned before in this thread, there is a HTC update 2.29.405.2 which happened to roll out around this time and is also 28mb, third the desire is a sense phone and it would be extremely unusual for HTC to release a senseless update for it.

It was fun while it lasted, but it will be a while before we see gingerbread on the desire officially.
[Desire General] kamran1987:
i'm getting too.

:confused:
[Desire General] 3722:
You are getting an OTA which is NOT Gingerbread.
[Desire General] Mekrel:
It's not about being smug, it's about using common sense.

How many people do you think are on here with a WWE unbranded Desire? There's 100's.

What do you see?

People posting about receiving notification of the 2.29 OTA - Yes

or

People posting about receiving notification of the Gingerbread OTA - No

So either his guy is the third coming of Jesus and HTC has only decided to push Gingerbread to his phone or he's either confused and/or talking a load of crap.
[Desire General] ragdoll20:
ITS FAKE PEOPLE!!

please stop trolling on the forums here!

To whoever is reading this: use your brain.. the nexus one will get it first, then other devices, it will take some more weeks. at least 2, thats what they said. calm down and have a cookie or something.. :P
[Desire General] Lothaen:
or bake some gingerbread... :D
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
Well, by fake you mean a missunderstanding?

And it could be worse, we could be Nexus users and have the same user get 2 hyped threads, only to find out they were both extracted SDK files :p

How's everyone's battery life with real world usage? I've been looking into this tablet because of the low price and nice hardware specs.
[G Tablet General] KnightCrusader:
I can usually get 1 full day of normal constant use out of mine.
[G Tablet General] HorsexD:
Yeah. Usually you wont need a charge till next day.
[G Tablet General] trscons:
Min of 10-12 hours, probably more, on my stock unit
[G Tablet General] anjenaire:
Battery Life Decent

I've been getting a full day plus although at work I turn off the wifi (can't connect to corporate network) but have it on most of the evening. Mainly playing "Angry Birds" and surfing the net while working on other things. Much better than the Maylong M-150 and Sylvania MID7 that I tried out before paying more for a more powerful tablet and battery. I bought the wife a NookColor and I am hoping the battery there will be as good (Christmas gift that hasn't been opened yet; screen view angle is definitely better).
[G Tablet General] it2steve:
the battery is ridiculous... you know how you are when you get a new toy? The first day I was on and off ALL day only to have 45% after it being unplugged 12 hours. I also took a 3 hour flight, watched a movie and still had 87% left.

I truly believe that the 8-10 hours advertises is legitimate which is hard to come by now a days. I am extremely impressed.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] addicus:
So what is everyone using for an EReader on these tablets. I am a WM guy looking to get one of these or suggesting it to a coworker. She wanted an ereader machine and was looking at the NookColor or Cruz Tablet then I saw these and I want to be able to show it to her.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] Hexidecimal:
I use the Nook app and it works pretty well. Anything I have book wise that isn't ePub I use Calibre to convert it. Probably the most used app on my device.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] archosxplorer:
I use Kindle on my A101 and I am very pleased with it! It seems to work flawlessly.

Be aware that these Archos tablets seem to have a problem with some readers cutting the last line off the screen due to the way Archos implements it's standard buttons.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] digibucc:
i use aldiko, it imports epubs which i convert all my pdfs, etc to through calibre.

it doesn't cut off lines on my a70
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] macemoneta:
Moon+

I've been using the Moon+ Reader, because I like the smooth-scroll function.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] ibietto:
I'm using laputa and calibri to convert files in epub version. it's quite perfect...
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] TubbyHamster:
Although it's not ideal, eReaders such as Aldiko have options for margins etc on the screen which could help combat the last line of text being cut off.

Anyone using Aldiko on their Archos? If so do you have any problems?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] digibucc:
rcftw! I am using Aldiko, and no setting changes were necessary. I just installed it and it worked.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] TubbyHamster:
Ahh, totally missed that line of your post first time round.

Just ordered my A70 on Friday (pixmania for £156, all out of stock now), so excited to get it an Aldiko is one of the main reasons. :)

Thanks for the answer. :)
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] lbhocky19:
using aldiko, the version from appslib doesnt have the cutoff problem
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] mrkniceguy:
This is the combo I've settled on. Works well, although I can't seem to get images working in the library view. Any ideas?

I tried Aldiko from the Google Market and the software buttons cut off the bottom of the text. The only option was to increase the margins and font to as large as possible. Didn't make for a very good reading experience.

This is true, but it did crop the top in the main bookshelf view... which meant the titles of my books went missing. Really wish Aldiko worked. It's the prettiest of them all for sure. Such a nice smooth scroll too.

Kindle on A70

I use Kindle on my A70. Probably the most used app I have. It lost the last line running 2.1 so I had to use Aldiko. After 2.2 posted Kindle works flawlessly. YMMV.

Laputa (get it while you can, the free books available are bound to get the developer busted)

Nook for my DRM books.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] hurrpancakes:
I'm looking forward to getting an Archos 101 and sticking all my 1000+ page school books on there. One thing that bums me out is that I haven't found an app for android that supports chapters in .pdf like adobe reader for windows does.

And converting to ePub makes it lose it's formatting, so I can't, for example, just go to a certain page, and have it be the one I intend it to be.

Anyone know of anything that will fix what issues I'm having?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] digibucc:
that is weird. I am running a 7/2.2 w/aldiko and yeah the main page titles are messed up, but not cropped. All my covers work so that is what i was reading for the title anyway. the books themselves read great...

maybe it's to do with ads? i'm using aldiko premium, maybe the free version has adds that gets in the way? idk...

odd.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] JasonOT:
I'm pretty sure all the free books with Laputa are public domain. You can find those same books for free at Project Gutenberg, and even through the Kindle app (again for free).
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] JasonOT:
I'm in much the same boat.

The other thing I haven't found in a PDF reader is the ability to have a fixed zoom level and switch pages at that zoom level. Once you zoom in a little, the two apps I've tried (DocsToGo and Adobe's own app) want to float around each individual page.

What I want is to center at, say, 125% zoom and just be able to switch pages with every one of them rendered centered at 125%.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] micmcguire:
Sorry

The Twilight series is not public domain.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] JasonOT:
I know, I've used the Adobe Reader on the market.

Unless I missed it, there's no way to change pages with a fixed zoom and location.

I actually just downloaded it again and can't figure out how to use bookmarks with it either.

DocsToGo really is the best PDF reader, and it's still kind of lacking.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] xjnumb:
PDF-readers

Tried out several PDF readers on the Archos 101, but the best till now is ezPDF reader. One extremely nice option is that it remembers where you left (like Aldiko). Has in text reflow day-night reading.

Also remember that Aldiko 2.0 will be shortly available and will have both epub and PDF reading in one package.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] succube:
I've tested almost every reader I could find on the market. And the fact is that I still go back to Aldiko (v1.2.10 on applib). customization (text and background colors), large choices for navigation controls and on that matter the sensitivity of the flick pages is for me the best (easy but not too much so that you won't change page by mistake). The user interface is cleanest and straight foward.

Moon+ reader had almost won me over (the bug with the market available aldiko : bottom of the page slitly going under the buttons) but the one thing that I hated was that moon+ wouldn't keep the covers I put for my books.

I look foward to the Aldiko 2.0 'cause it will support the DRMed epub and pdf.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] Gandhi70:
until a few days ago i was a quit happy user of the old aldiko premium.

only thing that it was missing for me was the option to disable fullscreen view and get the status bar back.

two days ago the aldiko 2 update showed up in the market.

thankfully i backuped up my old aldiko before updating.

what i really dislike in the new aldiko are the dumped down configuration options. guess it is supposed to be easy for the casual user but i hate it

the worst thing: i can no longer set the exact font size. standard is way to big, the next smaller font is to small already.

the formatting in the books looks different to. paragraphs for example are missing that are shown in the old version (without css enabled).

also, within the 10 minutes i tried the new version, the book titles no longer show up in the library view and i los the quick access shelf with the last read titles.

after using google to look for alternative readers i came up with laputa and moon+.

moon+ nearly got me but for one thing. it breaks up a book chapter in sub-chapters (i guess to enable kinetic scrolling). when i reach the end of such a sub chapter on the last page it shows text i have already read (i don't use kinetic scrolling, i tap the display to turn a page). i guess this is because the end of the chapter is always at the bottom of the page.

this really annoys me during reading because i always have to search for the right spot to continue reading on the last page of a chapter.

sorry, but i cannot discribe this any better.

after that i went back to my backup of aldiko and i hope that the guys at aldiko will bring back the missing config options in a future update.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] succube:
Same experience with Aldiko 2 here. Moon+ would be the best for me if it hadn't the problem with the chapters' end.

I've finally got my covers working on moon+

The best PDF viewer is the ezPDF reader, but for read a book is better convert the pdf with the Calibre use the Kindle...
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] Gandhi70:
this might be a stupid question, but how can i import an epub file from my sdcard into kindle?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] succube:
If I remember correctly, the Kindle app doesn't read epub but prc and mobi files
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] bradgog:
Google books is the way to go syncs to your google account and looks great on archos
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] addicus:
You are correct. He would need to use Barnes and Nobles Nook for epub.

[Nook Color Accessories] mrintegrity:
Is it possible (or a good idea) to use screen protectors from other 7-inch devices? I am not in the US so won't be able to buy them specific to the NC, which my dad bought on my behalf.

If so, what other (internationally shipped) devices / protectors are available in 7"? I am looking for anti-glare, anti-scratch and anti-fingerprint.

/mr
[Nook Color Accessories] Homer_S_xda:
I would swear by Invisible Shield. I have one on my iPod Touch. I have ordered one for my (still in box) NC. I did a quick peek at their site (www zagg com) and they show two retail locations in Sweden.

Good Luck!

Homer
[Nook Color Accessories] big.t_03:
Zagg's Invisible Shield is awesome--I have one on my LG Vu. I considered getting one for my NC, but I liked the anti-glare screen protector B&N was offering and I didn't want to wait for one from Zagg to come in the mail.

Invisible Shield has pros and cons, IMO. Pro is certainly the near-indestructibility of the screen protector. Con (for me, at least) is the somewhat rubberized texture. The texture is great on my phone, it helps with gripping and such, but for the NC, I like the B&N screen protector's smooth surface, and the anti-glare is really nice.

With the B&N anti-glare screen protector, you get two. So when one wears out, you apply the other or take it in to B&N and they'll remove the old and apply the new for you. Otherwise, Invisible Shield has a lifetime warranty on it, but you need Retail Location access (correct me if I'm wrong) for warranty/product replacement.

In the States (California, at least), I know for sure there is a retail location in Palmdale, CA, at the mall, and I know Best Buy sells Invisible Shield products (don't know if they cover the warranty/replacement--probably not). Otherwise, sign up for emails from Zagg, they have 50% off sales/coupons for the website all the time.
[Nook Color Accessories] kerobaros:
Consider yourself corrected, friend. I've had an Invisible Shield on a Motorola Cliq and a Nexus One at this point, and am likely going to order one for my NC when I get one.

To get the lifetime warranty on an InvisiShield, you have to do one of two things:

a) buy the product from Zagg's website, or

b) if you buy one from an independent retailer or one of their mall locations, you have to register the purchase on the website, which is free.

Once you have a registered Shield with Zagg, you can request the replacement at anytime. As I recall, they bill your credit card for shipping and ship you the new one. If you don't return what's left of your old one to them within (I believe) 30 days, you get charged the full price of a new Shield.

Pretty reasonable, all things considered, but I wish the shipping was free.
[Nook Color Accessories] tokyomonster:
I wish I had known b&n will apply the screen protector for you. Ruined one trying to get dust/hair that magically made it underneath and ended up settling with a few small specs under the 2nd one.

Other than that, im happy with it.
[Nook Color Accessories] big.t_03:
Hehehe. I knew about the replacement at retail locations (I live in San Diego but have family in the Palmdale area so I find myself there occasionally) and the procedure of returning the damaged original. I figured it was a similar process via mail, less shipping (I've not had to do that yet). Thanks for the heads up on the website side, though. If my Vu outlasts my InvisiShield (unlikely), I'll be prepared for the billing and shipping.

I despise applying screen protectors myself for that very reason--inevitably, some kind of debris magically makes it onto the sticky side of the screen protector--I went through three out of five screen protectors for my Vu before I got it reasonably applied (a couple specs of dust still made it in). Hence, I asked the B&N Nook clerk to apply the screen protector to my NC for me to avoid the dust and such.
[Nook Color Accessories] mrintegrity:
Thanks for the info all, seems clear that I have to get a zagg invisible shield :). My NC is arriving on Friday all being well :D

I have to own up to having never owned a "smart phone" before (unless you count a htc touch diamond which was more "special needs" than smart) so I have never used a screen protector before.

Are they hard to apply and remove? If it is not perfectly lined up first time, is it possible to adjust position and can it affect performance of the screen in general?

/mrintegrity
[Nook Color Accessories] mrintegrity:
Now I don't know which sheild to buy. Will the galaxy tab one fit? Also, is it possible to use one of the "maximum protection" ones?
