Ok
1st) the graphics are original sorry you dont like them and it doesnt support multi-touch
2nd) I know people with touch HD2 and there was no lag so i dont know why it lagged on yours.
3)Your charactor disappeared? or did you get killed!!
you said the screen froze and you had to reset. There is an exit button on top right corner of the screen. Did you try pressing that.
4)I find it hard to believe since i know people with touch HD2 and it worked but sorry it for some reason didnt work on yours.

I have only border of a button in right top corner, however clicking it did not help.
Perhaps because I have task manager installed in that place?
I have stock rom and improved opengl drivers installed.

something doesnt make sense?

Testing on an Acer/ETAN m900
Using the little Christian-Style D-Pad (seriously, is it meant to look like a cross) was pretty difficult I must say. I got about 20 meters into the level (that is, if the avatar was human sized) and killed a couple baddies before it bugged out.
The bottom ~1/3 of the screen was showing on the top, and the rest was moved down. It's the kind of thing I see on this device when something is designed for VGA or 4:3 but now 16:9.. this struck me as odd as it bailed with a message "requires 800x480 res" on the Diamond and i900.
All considered a good start IMO.

Actully the game is made for 480x800 resolution exactly. If your device isnt that exact resolution the game will not run. Its wvga resolution only no auto-scale sorry.

That was kind of my point. The M900 is a 800x480 device. It worked for a while, but then wigged out and looked like it was writing to the frame buffer the same way VGA or QVGA apps do on this handset.

Opera Mobile 9.5 build 781 works with AP 4

I just installed the newest opera and it seems to work fine over the previous opera that is cooked in. I only used it for a few minutes but it seems better.

I like it!! Thanks again Irus. You're the man!
Have used it only for a few minutes, but I already have a good feelig about this. My www.smh.com.au webpage is correctly displayed now, whereas it was messed up with the alpha or pre-alpha version. I also feel that it is faster.
Life is getting better and better now....
Will later test the other things like internet banking, other webpages, youtube, etc.
Works on the Dopod U1000 stock ROM without problem.
Can anyone link it someplace else except megaupload? They keep telling me my country has no more available slots...
Thanks.
It Works in IRUS ROM
I am testing with IRUS rom and works.
Just remember , if you have FTOUCHFLO enabled, to set the exclusions for opera9.exe otherwhise the scrolling will be SLOOOOOOOOWWWW
Many improvements, faster, better rendering, settings menu'.....
I have tried it... but netfront 3.5 RC7 is still beter for me...
Thanks for letting us know. Yep, mostly looks nicer, better rendering. Some things are worse though!
** WARNING ** you lose all your favourites! Whoops.
How do I tweak this back to a more VGA-suited application? All menus are double spaced.
The favourites page is now on a grey background, looks worse than before (e.g. Transport for London favicon)
The bottom right popup button is now black instead of transparent. Why!
Also the popup onscreen keyboard bug is still there :-(

I've been trying to tweak the skin file but it's not playing nicely. Maybe worth looking at some of the CSS files to take care of the other issues.

I prefer the opera 9.5 onAP4 as the zoom is at an acceptable level whereas with this cab it is way too large.
I dont use RealVGA so I am not sure if this would improve its appearance.

thanks irus, I had done this with the beta but forgot how to do this
I'm on AP4 and just tried the megaupload file - won't install because of incorrect permissions.
Edit: I just tried again and this time it installed. Odd.
Well, I've been playing with this for the last hour or so and here's my impression. It renders better than the one that came with AP4. It doesn't scroll the screen with the 4-way like the AP4 version did, but I can live w/o that. It has a bug where most (all?) links can't be successfully clicked until you zoom in on the page - they appear to select by turning red, but the new page doesn't load. After zooming they turn red, then get highlighted, then the progress bar starts to show as the new page loads. One other bug, same as in AP4, it briefly shows each character in password fields before turning them into asterisks.
Edit: the link issue seems to be fixed if you start off at a large enough zoom level. Here are my Adaptive Zoom settings currently, although I may increase the zoom levels further.
Browser Buffer Width: 800 (pixels)
Maximum Zoom: 120 (percent)
Minimum Overview Zoom: 85 (percent)
Minimum Zoom: 85 (percent)
Virtual Screen Width: 800 (pixels)

You have to kill the old Opera if it is running. Otherwise you will get a permissions error.
techntrek settings help, but I'm not sure i liked them as much as the old default ones in the one installed with AP4. Anyone have a list of those? I didn't think to save them.
(You need to restart to make them apply, I didn't realise).
The settings do solve the clicking on a link in zoomed out view, although I'd rather be zoomed out more. It's an odd one, as you can still do the tap and hold click to bring up the menu and it realises you are on a link.
The big positive so far is that you get a progress bar in full screen mode now, so you actually know you have clicked on something. Otherwise I'm quite negative on this release.
The skin is too big and no longer transparent in full screen mode (the right hand corner arrow).
I've had the keyboard fail to display a few times, and as I work in tablet mode this is bad!
It doesn't seem to want to go to my homepage on start-up, but goes there if I click on home.
OK and cancel buttons just display as black boxes on pop-ups.
I think it feels more like a beta than the last build to me.
I made the Minimum Overview Zoom to 70, keep all other values, and also use large font size.
It works well.
Occasionally my onscreen keyboard pops up by itself. When I try toggle it off, the portion previously covered by the keyboard is not 'reclaimed' by the rendering mechanism.
Conflict with Tengo still not resolved.
Black font on black keys om some screen is annoying, but not big deal for me.
I like the big space occupied by the menu bars. Easy for fingers. Just don't like the space taken by each favourite items.
Overall, I like the improved speed and fantastic rendering accuracy as compared to the earlier versions, although it is still far from being stable and perfect. Mine freezes a few times forcing a soft reset.
I've now made this my primary browser over netfront 3.5.

That's not a bug. Lots of apps and platforms do that. It's to allow you to make sure that you've entered the right characters before moving on to the next.
Having played some more, I really like it despite the odd quirks.
The google reader gadget on my igoogle page now works, and google mail is working well (I don't think it did before).
Still had a few more issues...
Sometimes images don't show. You just get an empty box.
And sometimes in forums threads when changing page, or going to the next page in something like google images it doesn't always put me back at the top of the page.
Otherwise it just keeps getting better.

Angry Birds 1.4.2

Fantastic ! Has the game zoom function?
no zoom function AFAIK but it is a great improvement plus extra levels!
It managed to crash on my mini after one level.. and the res still seems a bit off at times.. I will keep playing to make sure it doesn't crash again.. and if it does crash.. I will just restart it and keep playing.. for the sake of testing of course
seems to be a problem with the resolution when it pops up with a screen to show you how to use a new bird weapon (that's all I could think of to call it) so when you get an exploding bird it pops up on the screen with instructions of what the new bird does showing a big finger touching the screen.. then freezes (I guess there is a button off the screen somewhere (on higher res screens) that allows you to continue.. on the mini/pro you have to reset the game..
Edit.. holy crap I just looked at the post times.. I wasted over an hour playing that game!!
since i have upadated mine, ther resolution is perfect, however the game itself sometimes stutters [which IIRC it didn't do before (when the resolution wasn't great)] like there is not enought RAM to run it perfectly. apart from that it works well.

Can you take a video of new version on x10 mini ?
The game works fine on mine. Aside from occasional lags. The new version supports the small resolution of the mini...
Is it crashing for anyone else when you unlock a new bird weapon?

sorry, dont know how to do that...from what i have noticed [playing for quite some time yesterday ] it appears that the lag/ stuttering that i notice is only when the advert is on the screen, at the start of the level. after that has gone it appears to be fine.
You do realize when the screen freeze in the instruction, the back button or the menu button (I'm not sure, I forgot) is fully functional. You just have to press it and it will bring up the menu. From there, go to the level selection and pick the level you're going to and voila, you are playing the game again without resetting.

w the 1.4.2 update, the instruction fits the screen properly w the check mark to continue.
I installed the last update and it seems to work a little bit smoother than before.
But finally, I found the key: to root and install AdFree... NOW WORKS PERFECT !!! Also I noticed with AdFree my X10 mini goes faster. I hope this helps!

Download the latest version from Market or getjar.com

[Q]Anyone else notice this about multitouch?

Can be very wonky at times. When the two points are directly beside or above/below each other on the x or y axis it seems to lose tracking of both points most of the time. Makes the pinch to zoom somewhat more difficult as you have to do it at an angle. Just wondering if everyone elses G tablet does this also.
Thanks!
Hmmm 52 views and no replies?
Nope, no issues here. Have you tried the touch recalibration app? Or reflashing? Do you only notice this in certain apps or is it everything?
Thanks for the response! Haven't tried reflashing but did do the calibration app a while and it helped somewhat. It does seem to be with every app. Think I will reflash and see if that alleviates it.
Thanks!
I don't believe the G-Tablet multitouch is as good as people say it is. My girlfriend had purchased Glow Hockey 2 on my tablet because she wanted to play air hockey against me, only to find that when two points on the screen are touched, the accuracy and responsiveness of the touches drop nearly 75%. It's a shame too, as that game looks to be a sure-fire hit with tablet devices.
I'm pretty sure that it is a hardware limitation, not a software limitation that can be fixed with re-flashing or calibration.

have you calibrated your screen ?

Yup, responsiveness is great. Multitouch leaves a bit to be desired.
I can confirm this problem on my tab, with all rom's except the TnT ones (never tried them). Using multitouchvisualizer app from the market you can see that the screen will not register 2 points immediately when they have the same x (horizontal line) or the same y (vertical line). The problem is definitely better after calibrating the screen (doesnt take as long to register the second point), but the problem persists and leaves something to be desired for this multitouch screen. When pinch to zoom is at an angle to vertical or horizontal, its perfect. If pinching on the horizontal or vertical axis, there is lag.
Normally this doesn't matter because you can just pinch-to-zoom on an angle, but when playing games like cordy or jetcarstunts, where buttons are aligned horizontally, the second tap sometimes isn't recognized immediately. Its somewhat nit-picky, but there are many other touch screens where this is not a problem.
Make sure that you have the proper permissions files available. If you are missing the "Multitouch Distinct" XML file then it doesn't work properly...
Early ROMs didn't have it, so you had to add it manually...I think newer ROMs have it though...
I've attached it here JIC -- just remove the ".txt" extension and drop it in

Second that request!
Put it in /system/etc/permissions/ as android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct.xml, and make it readable for all.
But, before you do, make sure that the file doesn't already exist. It does on CyanogenMod 7.0.3.

Yeah - went looking and found it. There are two files.

and

Dead Space controlls questions

I have some Dead Space controlls questions...
First of all, how do you "disarm"? If I am holding the gun, and want to open something, I always end up shooting it and wasting ammo.
How do I change weapons? For example, I walked up to a power pack and needed to use the saw on it. If I hit the button on the top right of the screen, it only shows the gun. Somehow, I managed to switch to the saw, but I don't know how...
I feel like I am missing something basic here. Any help would be appreciated!
Sent from my CM7 HP Touchpad
i wasnt gonna answer cuz you can find this in the help in-game, but to put your gun away, tap the left side twice to 180-degree turn, or click the top right button and the nav indicator.
or you just tap the green circle to open, and nothing else, thats what i do
PLEASE READ THE IN GAME HELP! it has all teh controls and instructions there
Well your sort of being unhelpful. For some reason on the touchpad disarm does not work. Walking forward to running the character should plus his weapon downside there must be a controller problem due to the screen size/aspect ratio.
i found dead space to be unplayable on touchpad. maybe the touchscreen drivers aren't as accurate as they are on some other android devices. my character turns around a lot for no reason while I'm trying to walk around. play on the g2 though. good game. going to try to map ps3 controller to touchscreen for dead space on TP.
Maybe that 16:9 status bar mod works but I'm waiting for a option to toggle that as having that ugly bar is a mono.
I had the same problem
sadly, I gave up and moved on

Benefits of ICS

What are the real benefits of running ICS on our Sony Tablet S, other tthan smoother UI?

Improvements:
- Mini apps - Use some apps on top of your other running apps.
- Place apps in a folder on your home screen.
- Take screen capture.
- Theme is much more smoother.
- Slide notifications to remove.
- Improved settings menu.
- Cradle option "Choose action" when when you place your tab in dock"
- On lockscreen chose between unclock and use camera.
- Camera is optimized.
- Disabling built-in apps |Hogaburger|
- Google Chrome |Bojanglez|
- and some other little stuff.
Disadvantages:
- Screen flickering ( Sometimes )
- Can't personalize your app menu anymore.
- No face unlock ( but I don't care )
- Still a scratching sound while playing music (I think its a hardware prob.)
- And some more can't remember right now
|YF|
Mahaco.
All of the above plus you can run Google Chrome.
The mini apps are really cool, Sony did a good job withn them.
google chrome is sweet, im trying to find more apps that require you to have ICS

I'd just like to say that the flickering and audio scratching aren't on every tab. Mine is perfect for audio, and the only flickering I get is for like a quarter of a second maybe 2 times per day... and that's only when launching a game or something so it's not like it happens while I'm in the middle of something.
Also, more advantages:
-the ability to slide to remove the recent apps (also clears from memory).
-Able to play files directly from SD card **PLUS** this works a million times better now!!! I was previously taking my tab with loads of episodes of family guy on it to work everyday. I was having constant problems with audio and video stuttering or even not starting at all. Now it just instantly loads and plays perfectly.
-keyboard input lag is gone (one of the best improvements in my opinion. I nearly destroyed the tab 100 times from trying to respond to emails and it taking forever)
I was actually going to buy the ASUS transformer prime as soon as it became available... but after this update I'll definitely be able to hold out for the next sony one now. I also love the calculator lol. I strangely find myself needing a calculator while I'm in the middle of an app ALL the time...but that's probably just me lol.

Yes thats correct the flickering doesnt happens that often and its not a problem for me i dont care and this tablet thats my opinion is not a good music player
And +1 for the your calculator info lol
its not just "smoother UI", thats really not doing it justice.... its night and day in terms of 'snappiness' and finally comes close to the fruit shop experience. ALso no more stupid homescreen crashing/reloading all the time
at least I'm going with what ICS did to my Tegra2 Atrix phone lol so expecting similar boost

yeah and have anyone notice the time difference when you turn the tablet on, its quite fast booting up but its not a big difference just like a small one..
expendable memory. I now have additional 32GB to store video, photo, and music to my 16GB tablet. and it works great! I rooted my tablet before to get this feature. now, it's there without root and it works even better!
native screen shot function!
Disabling built-in apps is a great feature too. Reallllly loving this Google Chrome beta. So long, stock browser.

Although Mahaco's right that this probably isn't the best place for this, this easter egg has been in Android since roughly 2.1 (I think) with new artwork for each version. HC gave you the HC Bee (with a BZZZZZZZ... Toast), Gingerbread gave you a weird Gingerbread Man Zombie painting by an Artist (whose name is in the Toast). This can actually be swapped since it's located somewhere (I've forgotten where) in the framework-res.
Also, for those wondering about the "smoother UI", it is a whole level better since the Android System is now Hardware Accelerated in official ICS updates. This means the UI is able to fully leverage the power of the ULP GeForce graphics chip in the Sony.
