I also second this request. I would pay 20 dollars for a pdf reader that used standards-based pdf annotations. It would also be nice if the app remembered where you left off reading.
[Nook Color General] johnnyb138:
I have been looking for something exactly like this for my Nook Color. I would be willing to pay the premium to get this feature in a native PDF reader.

madyogi, thanks for this method, I will try it now and see how it works. Just in time for my trip tomorrow :)
[Galaxy Tab General] ellokomen:
Hello,

I just ordered my galaxy tab today and I'm looking for good accessories for it.

I watch a lot of videos from megavideo and I wanted to know it works good on the galaxy tab so I could buy the TV out cable and watch it from the tv.

Can anyone tell me if megavideo works fine on galaxy tab? Because I had another tablet with android 2.2 and the sound of the videos had different timing compared to the video itself.

also anyone knows if the Flash player works fullscreen using the tv out.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
yes it does work. i use it all the time. it just depends on your connection. i get a lot of buffering which is annoying as hell but once its going its.....gone! after a lil it works just fine. i use it to watch my anime and i use the video out and it works good.
[Galaxy Tab General] RotxeD:
have you guys tried the Megavideo application? it's still a beta version, but it should work without problems..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11621885

please, check it out and let me know your feedback!
[Galaxy Tab General] Flokey:
The megavideo app works ok... but there is a app "TV Shows Stream" it is very good, check out the trial ;)

If you want to watch movies too on megavideo, use the Megavideo app... and with chrome2phone you can send the links from the Browser directly to the tab and it automatically detects megavideo links

It downloads in flash format... not original Format AFAIK, but good to watch though
[Galaxy Tab General] roy8846:
I watch quicksilverscreen via TV out just fine :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tempest_Inc:
I'm interested in doing some development for android. I'm just not sure where to start. I see a ton of books on Amazon.

I'm just wondering what would be recommended for an absolute beginner. I know my way around a computer so i don't need it that noob'd down.

I think i would like to play with some apps, and eventually move to Kernels and Roms.

What you you recommend?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Probably the best way to start is to learn Java (the main coding language for apps and userspace), and C (the main languages for kernelspace stuff). After that, messing with the App Inventor would be the place to go. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuggyunlimited:
Search dsixda very helpful thread
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tempest_Inc:
i was thinking of learning some basics of android app development and coding with a very basic walk through so that i can fully understand what i'm going to be able to use the Java code in particular applications. Would this be a bad strategy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terrel_b:
As a software developer, I would recommend spending a couple weeks getting the basics of Java and object-oriented development down. Do a few sample apps in Java. Once you've done that, try Android. I'm afraid that learning to code, learning Java, and learning to develop for Android all in one may be too much for someone.

You really need to have the basics of Java and object-orientation down, then take on Android as it's not altogether simple, particularly for someone who's just learned to code.

As far as kernel/ROM development, I'm guessing C and Linux shell scripts are the things to learn there. If you want to write Android apps, do as I've mentioned above.
[Blade General] zurpher:
It would be great if TaintDroid could also be integrated in a Blade ROM.

ZTE Blade users, please show you're support if you also wish to see TaintDroid implemented in Custom ROM for your device.

ps: Sorry for replication but as this suggestion/request is taken up specifically for the ZTE Blade device, I thought it would be appropriate to duplicate the previous posts.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borgslayer:
Hello everyone, this is first time posting on this forum, so hopefully I'm in the right place.

Anyway, I have an HTC EVO 4G which is rooted and currently running OMJ's custom ROM version "OMJ_EVO_2.2_Froyo_v4.0".The problem I'm having is normally when I use some type of wireless or internet based app, I, not all the time, but occasionally get an error which says:

"The process: 'Process net.leetsoft.mobile.Wimax Notifier' has stopped unexpectedly."

It's done it in Camera, Bluetooth, Gallery, Internet, Friends stream widget, and the weather channel app. I can't really say I know what could be causing it or how to fix it, as I'm a complete and total noob.

Thanks for any help.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
This is an update for the "I5800 one click lag fix" i made before :).

As usual, i'm not responsible if you brick your phone. It will wipe all your data, so make a backup buddies ;).

It should really be more stable. Same quadrent score (Better is coming.. Just wait :) ).

You can update from the first version, the install script will replace it just fine :).

How to use it:

1. Root your phone (Using SuperOneClick for example)

2. Install busybox 1.17 from "stericson.busybox.apk"

3. Put your phone in USB debug mode

4. Launch "lagfixme.bat" (or lagfixme.sh).

5. Your phone will reboot twice ;).

Please give feedback :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Is it just me? Or doesn't it do anything?

Did all the steps you said, but when i run the lagfixme.bat, it shows a cmd for a few seconds and it dissapears without doing anything.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
It's probably not finding the adb executable to connect to the phone.

You can just copy the adb files from the One Click Root files into the same directory that lagfixme.bat is in..

.. And Gsam, this is for both Eclair and Froyo?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Eclair still does not support ext2...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
Yes it's for Froyo :)... Oops, i didn't include adb.exe for Windows (i've developped it on Linux). I'll upload it again.

EDIT:Fixed
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nastyba:
Hi:)

What's a benefit of this lagfix and what's disatvantage ?

Will be the phone faster or ?

Will I have less storage space after this ?

Thank you for clarification :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kenblat:
what is the different between this version and the old one compare with the lagfix_stock jpa using for your stock rom?

Only the stock lagfix work with Precurse'rom
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
So I guess that could be the problem that is was not working for me? :p
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
Yes, try again with the new file :).

FadeFx => Well, you can try a Froyo firmware with an Eclair factoryfs.rfs if you want. I'll try when i'll have the time (can't flash my phone right now)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
Thanks a lot!

Installed without any problem!

But how to remove it (IF required)

will hard resetting a device be enough?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Is it possible to post your findings of this lagfix?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Gsam101:
Saka911 => No, this new version will reinstall the files if you hard-reset it :). Just reflash your phone, i'll publish a uninstall script.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
Well It installed without any problems..

just now I installed all the essential programs.

I will run a few benchmarks and reply in some time..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
running lagfix.bat ... for how much i have to wait from when the cmd will close? :)

EDIT: all ok. ill feedback in a minute
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Ok, and if it's possible, could you do a run of Quadrant as well? ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
i ll run a quadrant benchmark .. w8
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
k saw your reply but still it will be helpful for others

for me 10 seconds for cmd...

after that allow your phone to boot itself(2 times) automatically. This will happen automatically. dont disturb your phone till u see the froyo home screen
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
ok. i have not seen the superuser request at first..

Quadrant Score: 535
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
Nice. I got 541. No major problems till now.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Sweeeeet :-) I'm gonna try the fix as soon as I get home. You didn't get any "low disk space" warning so far?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
Hi! I am spanish, and I don´t talk english very well... I am "noob" and I can´t install the lag fix in my galaxy 3! I put the files of "I5800_lagfix_2.0.1.rar" in the sdcard and run "lagfixme.bat", and appear a blak window and says anything: "permission denied" ....

I have Windows 7 and in my phone I have Froyo JPA-Custom!

Learn me how to install lagfix in my phone, please! Thanks for all!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mr.Gamer:
I actually got it cause i modified the file :-)

Just a thing, the script doesn't automatically replaces itself as it says....so for change the size of the ext2file, you have to REFLASH! ( or hack even more the scripts...)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Excuse me if I'm wrong, but i think it's not necessary to place the files on the SD card? I think you have to connect your phone to the computer using the usb cable and then run the fix from the computer...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
thanks for your help, but don´t (funciona)....

I put the files in the desk (escritorio) and run the lagfixme.bat, and ocurreed the same!

"failed to copy..........don´t permission"!

T.T
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
I connect the USB and don´t touch anything in the phone, and run the lagfixme, and appears other things but my phone doesn´t reboot! the lagfix is now installed? I do the quadrant standart and obtain only 351!!

Help me please!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Have you rooted the phone? Have you installed busybox?

It is telling you that you don't have permissions to run the fix, so probably you're just not rooted...

And do you have USB Debugging enabled?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FredFFF:
Thanks

It works on i5800 JPB. It is outstanding!

The phone is really faster.

Quadrant res: 554 (screen capture attached)

Just waiting for a removal script (if needed one day...)

thanks Sam
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
I have rooted the phone and the BusyBox installed! =(=(=(
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Is it possible to define all the steps you did to install the fix?

It will help a fersago and ofcourse all the other members of this forum.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
Techie a lot of thanks! You are helping ne a lot! I want have this lag fix because my phone right now is very slow and bricks continuously!

Enviado desde mi Galaxy 3
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Hehe thanks, I'm doing my best. If I was at home, I would try to apply the fix myself, but I'm at work for the moment. If nobody has replied before I got home, I'll try the fix and give feedback :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FredFFF:
in fact, I simply followed the first post

Right before I reset the phone, so I could add a step 0

0. factory reset + wipe cache (phone off, press simultaneously vol + - buttons+Home+On till the recovery mode starts)

1. Root your phone (Using SuperOneClick)

2. Install busybox 1.17 from "stericson.busybox.apk" on the phone

3. Put your phone in USB debug mode

4. Launch "lagfixme.bat" on the PC (or lagfixme.sh).

hope this helps?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
But you launch the bat file from your computer and not from your sd card right? Cause that's what he tried first.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FredFFF:
.bat is a windows batch file, not an android app, so you launch it from windows.(or use .sh if your PC runs linux)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
Yeah I know, but somehow fersago managed to run it from his phone? Can't believe that actually :p That's why I was so amazed.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Saka911:
well steps are as follows:

recommended for JPA/JPB users only.using the rom provided by samfimware

1) Hard reset your phone: *2767*3855#

2)Make sure your phone is rooted preferably by superoneclick 1.5.5

3)install busybox attached to the 1st post

4)switch on usb debugging

5)download and run the .bat file

6)after this some files will be pushed to your phone automatically and your phone may ask you "unknown application asking for super user permission". Click allow

7)dont disturb/detach your phone till it has booted into the froyo homescreen.

p.s. although My quadrant score has come to around 550, I dont know what are the exact benefits of this lagfix. anyways someone was asking so yes,the effective phone memory available for installing apps does decrease after lagfix,But I guess if u want better performance? it might be just essential to keep just the essential apps residing in your phone.My list of essential apps:

> Launcher (LP or ADW)

>Extra key board like smartpro/swift

>Opera mini

>Dolphin HD

>Astro file manager

extra apps can be moved to sd card
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] masterg0g0:
*.bat is also comon in linux i think.. ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] shajumohamed:
hey my phone was automatically reset to factory settings after this update .did it happen with every one?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
If someone finds it useful.... I can build an ext2 (or 3) module if you guys need.. I've already built Eclair kernels already, so a module shouldn't be too hard.

Let me know.

And if anyone would sees its benefit, I may be able to include a lagfix in a new rom. So just flash it with ODIN and it's good to go.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
Thanks to all, I do all that! but when I launch the .bat file in windows, and appears the cmd window, and I accept the Superuser permissions, my Galaxy don´t reboot! WHY?

Thanks of new! =P
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
can you give me the app super one clik ? I didn´t find the app in any site!

Many thanks for all!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] samc-:
i have the same problem ....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
It needs to create a new /data partition container basically.

I'm sure there's a way to create the container and copy all the previous /data stuff into there. Perhaps this was overlooked..

Thoughts Gasm101?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fersago:
then of millions of tries, I logred install de LagFix! =)=)=)=)=)

Many, Very, A lot of THANKS!!!!! ;) (for all the people) =P

The test marks: 546! OUUH YEAH!

hehehehehe!

EDIT: It look that the secret was in the super one click root! hehehe=P

Review

Hi !

I was using JPB version but the 2 mains problems (short battery life & clicks during conversations) were very (VERY !) boring.

So I installed the hybrid version JPA/JPB (precurse's version), and I was happy to see that my datas were present after that ! Good thing to do not have to re install apps and others things like contacts and desktop links. Even with Titanium backup it is a lost of time and boring ...

Then, I installed this lagfix V2, and I confirm : it could be a very good thing to do not suffer a hard reset ! :o:)

However, the Quadrant score was of 340 and is now of 547, wich is a good thing ! :)

I have 2 problems and I don't know if it's due to JPA/JPB or lagfix (because I installed both before testing) :

- Samsung animation at startup disapears (I have GT-I5800 with the "music" but no animation; after that I have "SAMSUNG" as usual). Well, I don't care of this but I don't know if it's a signal of a problem ?

- GPS is not working even with FastFix (It was working with JPB version and FastFix (without Lagfix)) ... Any idea ?

Bests regards to precurse & Gsam101 anyway ! :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
Come to think of it, I may have removed the startup and shut down video/sound. I just forgot to document it.

The rom I posted was basically a clone of the way I set my /system directory, and I think I removed that stuff before I took the factoryfs that I posted.

I've since added the boot animation from the Nexus One to my current rom. It runs great - but doesn't look at nice because of the resolution of the i5800 screen.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] god_md5:
it remove the samsung logo to playlogo,so not have

id it same is loop /data ?

look like 40mb /data loop to 150mb /dataext2?

is not help for phone sms and contacts?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] sambastrakan:
OK, this stuff of animation doesn't matter ...

But, your GPS is working well ? If yes, do you have installed lagfix ?

I ran FastFix again and can't have neither 1 sat ... yesterday at the same place I was able to have 5 sats ...

thank you !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
Hmm.. I haven't tested the GPS. It should be the same as JPA though. GPS is one of those things that I rarely need to use, but really sucks when it's not available..

I'll try here shortly on my way home.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] skumfuk:
everything fine ;) thanks.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] sambastrakan:
Well, an other indication is that the *#*#1472365#*#* code doesn't start the gpssetup ...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] precurse:
The code for GpsSetup2 is changed in Froyo..

The new code is *#*#3214789650#*#*
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] sambastrakan:
Upps, thanks for this info ...

Well, after enabling XTRA in gpssetup2 AND using "GPS status" app (which download a xtra.bin file from internet) AND restarting the SG3 ... it works !

Just don't know untill when ... :o

It's not a secret that GPS is very badly managed in the i5800 ...

Thanks a lot for your job !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hitsugaara:
Well.. anyway GPS doesn't work properly where I live.. and I rarely need it.. The real question is.. how long will the phone remain lag free after this fix.. just applied the fix sometime back..I'm hoping it will run better and won't get laggy as the previous version.. by the way.. I just wanted to ask.. Is it not possible to port the voodoo lagfix for I5800??? I know the NAND is pretty small but OCLF was also ported in the end... And thankyou so much Gsam.. I just bought this phone a week back and I was so depressed that It dosen't perform as expected... I bought my dad a Galaxy 5 yesterday and thankfully it dosen't have any problems whatsoever!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hitsugaara:
Ok.. weird.. I'mnot able to connect to the WiFi network in my home... Its stuck at obtaining Ip address... My netwoork is WPA2/Psk secured.. Factory reset would probably solve this problem but is there another way to do this without resetting???
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] samc-:
try to reset the phone ... and will work then ... i have the same problem
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] yogi9115:
why is my internal free space down to 34mb?? is this because of the lagfix??

i did a factory reset and it stays that way..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
That is indeed because of the lagfix :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stellarroar:
I do everything as said. But after the 6th step nothing happens. Any thoughts why?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] drajax:
Lagfix??

If the internal/phone space goes down to 34megs then how are we supposed to install any app which needs widget support onto the meagre phone memory? :O :s
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] yogi9115:
it shows the memory is 34mb.. and stays constant at that no matter how many apps you installed.. even titanium backup shows constant values..

so i guess its just some kinda bug..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] stellarroar:
Does this lagfix work for i5801?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
It reads the size of the data partition, but not the loop device, because the data partition contains a big file that is the loop device it shows constantly data - loop size
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] abaddonmc:
well

sorry,for my english I'm Thai.

Thank for lagfix It's very well. I got quanrant 570 score. but my device is factory reset after reboot and bug show 33.23 MB internal memory.

so, I like it. Thank you every one and Happy New Year. ^_^
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
You should do a factory reset already before install of the lagfix to prevent problems like this. I think the install script has no mechanism to check space nor to move content from data to loop device yet
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] qxbutch:
Is there real benefit in phone performance except higher quadrant score?

I've got the following performance problem: GPS tracking and Camera recording do not work together. If I start video recording, then I got GPS Fix lost (got number of satellites decreased from 8-9 to 3-4 in GpsSetup2) and got back 8-9 satellites back just after video recording stopped.

Could it be resolved by this Lagfix?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Hm, this means layer does not work? Or do you mean while writing recorded video to SD?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] qxbutch:
I mean that background GPS application lost GPS signal while camera is active.

It's reproducing without recording to SD too. Having active camera is enough.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nastyba:
and is battery cosumption higher ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] thoot7:
It's really nice :D and works well on my I5800 JPA Hybrid.

Quadrant score :553
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] KilL3r!:
how to chk quadrant score?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Techie87:
You can download Quadrant Standard from the Android market and then install it :-) After that, launch the program and do a full benchmark.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] zeyk:
my quadrant score is jus 355...i followed the steps as mentioned...:(

do i have to reset the phone after installing lag fix?

edit: the phone doesnt restart after the cmd command says lgfix is now running....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] jackass888:
Thanks for this fix!

But please add a warning that this performs a factory reset! :S
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vetea:
Hello,

I just installed Lagfix 2, and hadn't any factory reset, but I still have a quadrant around 330 !!!

Should do a factory reset to see any change ?

EDIT : Mea Culpa, j'avais oublier de click sur BusyBox installer dans les apps du téléphone. Doncen effet, 2 reboots, un hard reset et un quadrant à 554 :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] samc-:
did the phone automaticly reset 2 times when you install lagfix?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] vetea:
only one time
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] swiatus85:
before lagfix I was 344 in Quadrant, after that 540 ;)

After lagfix I only use fee minutes phones that I can't say more about this lagfix.
