Like Dave mentions above, I too didn't notice any improvement.

The only time my browsing experience improved was when I switched from the stock Tab's browser to Dolphin.

The stock browser was horrendous in Lag whereas Dolphin is smooth as silk.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Pat123:
Jeez, how difficult is it to read folks! Hardware Acceleration ONLY on 3.0 devices! Obviously, there wont be any difference on our Tabs!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Beards:
We know that..... We are only reiterating for the OP on a standard Galaxy Tab there has not been any noticeable difference.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] foxmeister:
Perhaps you should have taken your own advice and actually the posts before adding your own? ;)

I actually quoted directly from the Dolphin blog where it states that HW acceleration was for Android 3.0.

Dave

I did feel a significant change when it comes to gestures, they respond quick and look neater - perhaps i'm seeing things !

I had a massive improvement in overall speed of pages loading and removing 'stickyness' when scrolling pages, so it must help all tablets?

The last update about three weeks ago was so bad i nearly uninstalled.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Beards:
Well if you have found such a large increase I am very pleased for you (and I do mean that).

How it came about though should not have been down to Dolphon on it's own as the upgrade should not have been refined for non Android 3.0

Do you have any other Dolphin plugins installed?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] checkbox111:
Desktop toggles (rarely works) :mad:

Dolphin tweet. I don't know what i would do if that stopped working :)
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Pat123:
That comment was for other two people who expected/experienced better performance on their Tabs running Froyo.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Beards:
Nothing there I can see that would improve your service. :)
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Beards:
If you are implying I am one of those two people, I have already explained why I gave my comment. :mad:

Again, I am fully aware the speed improvements are for Android 3.0 and again my comment was to add it should not effect non Andoid 3.0 devices.

Its just as unbrowseable as before on the hmv site however dolphin mini works ok
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Pat123:
I have realized it's near impossible to get a smooth browsing experience (ALA iPad) unless you flash a custom ROM and/or move to EXT4! And even after that it will never be that smooth. It always sucks when loading sites in Flash. IMO, our only hope is that we get a honeycomb update (unofficially ofcourse) which has APIs for hardware acceleration!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] fabricatedhero:
Try downloading the faster browse addon for dolphin. Its a kill background addon.

Helps in my browsing when it acts up. Plus i dont browse with flas... only on demand. Helps with loading pages.

Hello all,

I have a little issue:

After upgraded my phone to froyo (feb 2011 europe firmware) Icons of the Home Screen disapear after reboot. This issue seems occur only if the apps are been moved on to sdcard.

thanks
[Galaxy 3 General] ronhoover88:
You will have to wait for a while for the apps to load...try using a launcher pro or adw launcher they may load faster:)
[Galaxy 3 General] i_rnb:
A correction : Twlauncher is d only one which wil nt load them after reboot.. :P
[Galaxy 3 General] andreagx@alice.it:
Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

Even after hours, the icons do not appear.

I don't want use a launcher. I want understand because happens it. :)
[Galaxy 3 General] i_rnb:
u can try adw..!!
[Galaxy 3 General] pator5:
You're wrong launcher pro also doesn't load them also:D
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
Try reseting the launcher after the media scanner finishes (ie. after the sd card is fully prepared) restart it by ending the process and then just pressing the home button.
[Galaxy 3 General] cdesai:
It happens because the apps take time to load if from the SD card as it is much slower then internal memory and also because TWlauncher is slow for that

Has anyone tried the new PS1 emu yet? The word generally is that it is miles ahead of psx4droid, however i dont have a G2/desire z yet. Im looking at getting this phone as my next purchase.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Pat123:
Yes, ofcourse. It is way much better than psx4droid! There is a thread on xda discussing FPse!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] MishXT:
trust me its a hell lot better than psx, fpse is so much cooler and it runs a lot smoother than psx
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] bazhip:
The word would be correct. Just don't confuse savestates with loadstates. That made me lose about 4 hours of FFVII when I was drunk. Its badass though. I went online and found a FFVII savegame and put it on my SD, fpse read it just fine and I was back in business.

Was using it back in my WinMo days, now I'm using it on the DZ and I love it, the hardware keyboard makes all the difference.

Runs nice and smooth (I play without sound, though, personal preference).
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] jspina:
FPSE is ok. a lot of the games that work on psx4droid, dont on FPSE, which can get quite annoying.

But the frame rate and the over all smoothness is better on FPSE.

AND if you get sixaxis pair tool from the market, you can play the games with a ps3 controller (FPSE)! The controller doesnt work however on psx4droid.

(Just a little input)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] b-m-b-85:
Just for a heads up the sixaxis doesnt work with sense but will work on g2 or dz aosp ROM. Thanks

Hello,

now with some of the last versions from americandroid i got a problem with some apps...

icq/ some games like uno and alot other...

sometimes the lock screen too...

the apps work, but the window is not complet sized to fullscreen, looks like just 3/4 from screen...

any idea what i can do?

sry for bad eng. ^^ german :D
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Sounds like a problem with the ROM, check the ROM thread to see if it offers any answers.
[HD2 General] mkamodang:
I faced the same problem and I resolved it through the solution provided at americandroid post. In your menu screen, click on the spare parts, inside the spare parts, you find at the bottom "compatibility mode" UNCHECK it and restart your phone. This will solve your problem. I suggest you to read the FAQs on the first page of the americandroid post. It provides solution to your phone problem.
[HD2 General] dwarf1987:
looks like it works...

many thanks...

i tried to read the faq`s, but its a litle problem thats all in english... i can read much, but dont understand all ^^

thanks for help :)

any one know why enabling VT makes console output scramble all over the screen ?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] lucas.scott:
Is there a size constraint ? I'm working on making my first one ... and having some issues . Trying to sort out the issue .
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Volones:
The max screen resolution is 480x800.

I have seen 480x854 work on my phone, but not 490x810. Also, the 60fps doesn't work as a framerate, 24fps and 30fps do.

I'm playing around with the image size on the original GalaxyS boot animation to fill the screen, and that's what I've found.

Good luck, and be sure to post it up so we can see when you're done.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] imnuts:
Supposedly, there is a 3MB limit per folder, not sure if this is true or not. Also, make sure the zip doesn't have compression, it should be created in store mode.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] lucas.scott:
That might be the issue .. I'm using winrar to zip . What do I use to zip in store mode ?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] lucas.scott:
Okay I got it zipped in store mode .. and its booting now ..but its soooo choppy . My preview in Photoshop is super smooth . My zip size is like 3.8 , could sheer size be causing it to bog down ?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] brickbeats:
me too...

I'm having trouble with the ones I created too. I rendered them in Vegas pro and they work but really slow. I encoded them at 30fps and the images are 480 x 800. I uploaded the one i made if any body wants to try.

edit: the are like 35mb so i don't size is the issue...

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] All4TheFam:
I have also been playing with boot animations using pictures from a 8 meg canon camera and from frame captures of 720p video. My biggest one is 55.7meg and runs perfectly at 29fps. i currently have that are built from vids running one being the 55.7 meg and another at 52.4 meg runnin 29fps. Then I have multiple other smaller ones with frame rates running as low as 12fps because they are built as slide shows. It is true that the aspect ratio for the sf is 480 x 800, but when you resize your pictures make sure to maintain the 480 as stated above. Some of my frame shots from vids ran off in size turned out to be 480 x 640 and the boot wouldnt run right till i plugged those exact dimensions into the desc file. One hint i can give is after you resize your images to the correct res. go ahead and compress them too. helps them load faster. Then zip in store mode and have fun. Takes me about 15 minutes average to build one depending on the source.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] lucas.scott:
would you be down to assist me on mine? i have hit a brick wall and and pretty much just moved on to other projects. I have practically no animation exp though , so im sure that plays a factor .. haha . what i want it very simple .

I can't turn my screen off. When I press the power button it goes off for 0.5 to 3 seconds and comes back on. I was using Axura when it first happened, but then I restored an older CM rom and I'm having the same issue. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm sure I don't have to add that it isn't ideal for battery life .. :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master™:
Are you plugged in when it is happening? If so, have you tried to turn off the "Always stay on" setting?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psmooth:
I had this happen to me. It turns out it was a faulty power button. Its a hardware issue. I had to return my phone because I was still in the 30 day window, if you're outside of that you need to send it in to samsung.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavved:
Thanks for the replies.

Strangely enough the issue disappeared as quickly as it appeared about 6 hours after it began! I tend to agree that it's a hardware problem, but as long as it's not happening constantly I'm going to live with it (due to the fact that as an Australian living in Spain with a NS from the US I don't imagine a warranty claim would be easy).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
A hardware problem wouldn't be my first assumption if I was on a custom ROM and/or had lots of apps installed.

If it happens again, I'd get a logcat recorder app or adb logcat session running on the phone and see what exactly it says goes on just before the screen wakes each time.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavved:
Oh ok. I tend to assume it's a hardware problem due to the fact that it happened on completely different roms. But the way that bug causing "artifacts" are sometimes left behind when changing roms doesn't give me confidence in that assumption. I really don't understand it.

I'll definitely give the logcat a go if it comes back. Thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wookietv:
hi,

i am bringing back this thread from a few months back because it was the only one i found that showed the same problem.

i installed alogcat and attached a log file here. can anyone see if there's anything in the log that would be a software reason as to why it's waking itself? also, it doesn't shut itself off while this is happening. the screen will stay on indefinitely. i've had the phone for 6 months and this has become a new problem i would say in the last 3 weeks. i don't want to have to send it to samsung for a few weeks.

thanks for any assistance

Hi everyone,

I want to update my phone to the latest custom ROM available. I have xperia10i, firmware version 2.1-updare1 and baseband version 2.0.46. Before you decide to loathe me for not searching the forum and direct ranting a question. I did try to get the answer to my query but was bombarded with so much information but reading so much of update info available at the forum. And off-course for a newbie like me these all info was too much. So please I will be delighted if some1 is co-operative enough to direct me to a easy step by step update instructions. Thanks. :)

[Windows Phone 7 General] Nissan350:
I'm not sure if this topic has been covered in any previous threads because if it was, I can't find it.

The problem I'm having is when I assign a picture to a contact, it becomes distorted after about 30 minutes (or however long you set your contacts to sync).

Before that 30 minutes, the picture is as clean and crisp as the original.

I tested this with my girlfriends picture. I assigned a picture to her number and had her call me right away. Her pic came up sharp and crisp like the original. 30 min later I had her call me again and it was extremely blurry/compressed.

One thing I did notice is that the phone created a "Profile Pics" section under her number when I tried to change the pic again. And in that section is the picture that I had assigned to her all blurry and compressed. So the phone compresses the image after a while and then automatically uses the compressed image from that point forward.

I've searched the internet and XDA and have found no solution to this problem. No one has even brought it up before.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there even a fix?

Any feedback is appreciated!
[Windows Phone 7 General] shamreez:
As you mentioned this has been discussed here before and there is no fix for it.

What happens is when you assign a pic for your girl and than she calls you immediately the pic you assigned is being showed.

But once your phone gets synced "it would be with either your hotmail or your gmail" than the exchange there resizes the image to the max it supports which is actually very small and hence the issue.,

One work around I have seen is if you are having facebook and your contact is linked to a fb contact the fb profile pic is shown and it comes a lot better

Hope this helps
[Windows Phone 7 General] Bleak Morn:
How many beers did you consume between assigning the picture and recieving her call? That might contribute to the blurry image. :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
I solved this

I used to have that problem, not anymore :cool:.

The pictures become distorted when they sync with Gmail so I copied all my contacts over to Hotmail and unchecked the "Sync Gmail Contacts" option.

The issue isn't repeating itself with just Hotmail syncing contacts so it's definitely something to do with Gmail.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nissan350:
Guys, thanks for all the feedback! I really appreciate it. I might have had a few beers but I don't think that had anything to do with it (maybe) lol :P

Hmmm.. I will try the Hotmail method. How did you manage to copy all the contacts over? Did you do it manually? Or is there an option to copy contacts from another account?

Thanks!!!

EDIT: Nevermind. I found out how to import them. Hotmail makes it a synch!

I'll get back to you guys on if it works :)

EDIT 2: Ok, I transferred everything over to Hotmail. I go into Windows Live settings in the phone and there's only an option to sync E-mail. No option for contacts? This means that only E-mails have synced. No numbers. Any ideas?

Edit 3: Sorry for all the edits. I've messed around a bit with this. What I've found is that you have to leave Gmail contacts to sync. Then you have to sync Hotmail contacts right after. You will then have duplicates of all your contacts. You now have to select the Hotmail contact (the one without the persons number) and assign it a picture. After that you have to go back and link corresponding Hotmail and Gmail contacts via the link button on the phone. WP7 uses the Hotmail contact picture over the Gmail contact picture.

I've tested this by re-syncing Gmail and Hotmail, had my friend call me, and his picture came up crisp, even after the re-syncing. The only downside to this method (if you want to call it one) is that on the main screen, the people live tile does not display any contact pictures. Instead you get a bunch of blank boxes.

Let me know what you guys think!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
I'm not sure why you made it so complicated, this is was I did:

1. Copied contacts to Hotmail (via PC, not phone)

2. Unchecked the "Sync contacts" option in Gmail

3. Synched Gmail account so it would remove all contacts from the phone

4. Synched Live account so it would add all contacts to the phone

5. Assigned pictures to contacts

I have no duplicate, no distorted picture and the People tile shows pictures, not blank squares. Five easy steps really.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nissan350:
I tried your method but for some reason, when I unticked the sync Gmail contacts and re-synced Gmail to remove the contacts, I then synced Hotmail but Hotmail only syncs the contacts name and maybe an E-mail if there is one assigned to them. It never synced their numbers. So there I was with a bunch of blank contacts. Not sure why you never ran into this problem. In Live sync settings there is only the option to sync E-mail. No option for contacts. Which is what I said in edit 2. BUT when I go to check my contact info via PC, there are numbers for every contact. The phone, for some reason, syncs everything but their number.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
Ok I see... That's quite weird I never got that problem indeed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
you can try syncing your contacts to soocial.com, then switching them over. I use soocial to sync all my contacts, and it edits my hotmail contacts for me. I am through letting emails sync my stuff. Each has a different format and something always gets screwed up.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nissan350:
Yeah weird indeed. Well on the bright side, we now know of 2 different methods for fixing this problem.

Whats soocial.com? Is that something that WP7 can sync like Gmail and Hotmail?
