[Q] Dell Streak Skin... - Streak 5 Android Development

Hi, XDA Folks !
nice to meet you... I am new here and this will be my 1st posting. This forum really looks cool...
I have searched for the thematic "skin" but nothing found in the threads. So I let my request come out.
Anybody an idea where to get a "Dell Streak" Skin ? - I am just in re-design of a multi-functional website (blog, media player/web tv (stream), html5-PDF-Reader, twitter-tweets, photo slides, eShop etc. ...), which shall be re-designed for compatibility visited by mobile devices (especially with Android OS) etc. ...
So the idea is, as I did a 1st test successfully with the HTC skin (thank's to Sickbox for the "HTC Droid Eris AVD Skin") to check out how all looks on a bigger screen as the Dell Streak has. If you read PDFs (html5) of Scribd on HTC it looks horrible. Not very practicable... maybe I need a specific "plugin" to swap a PDF format into a "pure text" format for the smaller screens of smart phones.
Anyhow, the new bigger screen size (5 inch, WVGA (800x480)) looks very interesting, as it might be used as an eBook reader, Video player, same good for web browsing with community ability (Facebook, Myspace)), a mix of mini PC, smart phone, iPad and Kindle, maybe (In Germany we say: "The egg giving whool milk pig" (eier-legende Wollmilch-Sau).
People who do not need it for heavily telephoning on the road, the bigger size is OK, I would say. Much better for SMS writing than the tiny key buttons like on a Motorola or for heavy business users the BlackBerry (which now is blocked in Saudi Arabia, same will be banned by Indian Government as just announced, so it looks so fare RIM does not decrypte the email traffic).
I'd like to test the Dell Streak 1st via Android SDK as it is too expen...sive, yet to buy(maybe Dell might sponsor me . I would do all of usability test what should be done, Mr. Dell - even in very rough conditions (and not in a laboratory).
Seriously: This tablet PC (so I would call it) now is offered for German market since 5th August. But !!!! - If you calculate the whole price you fall off the chair, total costs with some extras (e.g. car set, bag, etc. ...) round about 900 EUR. Oh, thank's dell you reduce it with 29 EUR free shipping. (! A joke !). Definitely too expensive... for 900 EUR you get something much better. I am very happy with my DELL Studio 15 laptop I use since one year. It costed only 900 EUR.
In UK via O2 ( www . o2.co.uk/dellstreak ) it seems little bit cheaper with a
2 years contract (monthly 41.88 EUR/35 GBP). But !! - Again a big But ! - After Amazon just prized down its Kindle to 140 EUR (189 US$) and you same can get a HTC Android smart phone cost free with a flat rate contract for 30 EUR per month (European provider 1&1) I think, Dell has to re-think about its huge prizing... I would pay maximum something between 350-450 EUR (inclusive shipping free) for a Dell Streak contract free... that would be OK.
Anybody knows about the source for downloading the skin? I use Eclipse and Android SDK on a Windows Vista mashine. Yeah, yeah... don't beat me ! - I am not a developer, just a user mainly in focus for "media producation" and compatibility of web content. (Rec.: As Dev of course I would use Linux (which I use for a RAID system)
Would thank you for a tip or even a zip file with the skin . So fare... TC/Take it easy. SM2010.

Welcome to the Streak Family my friend

tks lufc for the warm welcome... so I see: you are already a proud Dell Streak owner, hm ? - Or do you have it on your wish list like me ? - How is it in UK with that geeky man's toy ? - You have a button posted "SIM FREE/Unlocked". What does that mean ? (Sorry for my 1000 questions, I am just curious - job sickness.) Can you only buy the Streak with O2 contract on Green Island? So fare I am informed correctly O2 introduced Dell Strike in UK... I really would love to get one (but not for 900 Euros).
Happy day ! - SM2010.

P.S.: When can I post "external links". I already wanted as I am used as cultural journalist to name my sources. But when I click on post I get the answer that I am not allowed to do so. Is it just because I am "newbee" here ?

You theoretically should be able to get the streak for around 500 euros.
However I'm not sure if you have any referals websites like we have?
www.quidco.com give 10% off the order with Dell, therefore it becomes £400 then convert that to Euros....about 83p per Euro?
Hell, send the cash to me and I'll order it and send it over to you!

German market is covered exclusively by DELL on its own (via Dell . de website). We have no (virtual) retailers here. For the Streak Dell deals with MediaMarkt which is one of the biggest multiple shops for Electronics (in any form) over all the country. Very unusual Dell does this. As I am already customer at DELL, hereby I get nearby weekly special price offers "voucher coded" directly, regular its 5% price reduction.

OK, got it, round about 482 EUR. Will check out Quidco. That sounds much better than 900 EUR (which is all inclusive truthfully to say.) - The basic price (Dell Strike Red or Carbone) for home office user in Germany is: 628 EUR (inclusive shipping which is charged at 29 EUR).
Many thank's for your offer, Amdathlonuk. 1st I like to check out the screen (see my 1st posting in this thread).
Still have the hope that anywhere in the world a developer created the Dell Streak skin for Android SDK.

P.S.: "Who searches will find". Reffering the "MediaMarkt" distribution I found following link: bit.ly/c402mL - It a Dell Strike as unlocked version for 599 EUR same as on DELL's own website. Aha...

Why is the Archos 28 internet tablet/mp3 player so hard to find?

I have been looking to get some Archos 28 action but it looks like that I will have to order from Best Buy as a special deal. I wish that Archos could take over Sony
Sears?
Have you checked your local Sears stores? Most of their stores should have received at least a few. And they are on sale for $89.99 as of this morning.
Check availability by store on Sears.com.
Good Luck!
they are a small company, in france, with a chinese manufacturer.
despite the demand, they are still small potatoes compared to other companies, and therefore don't get the priority in manufacturing.
huge demand, small overseas market at start. most people in the US for example knew/know nothing about gen5,6,7 etc - or even anything about Archos at all.
i recommend watching the archos official website, as i had a preorder for 2 months at JR.com, saw it go live on the archos.com site and ordered, had it in 3 days. just ahve to be vigilant ...
I tried to get one from a local store but I got tired and simply ordered an Archos 32 directly from the Archos website.

Play On APK

Here is the Play On app. I have not yet tested it on my NC because it is dead and I am at work. It does work on my Droid however.
I read that this requires a $14.99 subscription.
Is there a free trial or something like that? Flash video playback hasn't been top notch for me so far, and I don't want to pay $15 for something I won't be able to use.
Thanks for the upload
Edit: Went to playon.tv and downloaded the free 14-day trial they had there.
For those still unaware, the trial is here: http://www.playon.tv/download
Go here for the official purchase details: http://www.playon.tv/purchase/

You must have meant $39.99 (1st year / $19.99 per year thereafter) or $79.99 for the life of the product.
"PlayOn is a software program that runs on your Windows PC, giving you access to a wide range of Internet content on your TV -- Hulu, Netflix, YouTube, Amazon VOD, and many others"
If you're wating Netflix, do you also need a netflix account, or is it included in playon?

Yeah, but they offered lifetime before this version of playon and then made them pay for this version, so lifetime isn't really lifetime with PlayOn.

I bought the previous lifetime version thinking I wouldn't have to pay again... They are are only a lifetime license for the major version you purchase, any major release in the future and you will have to upgrade again.
sounds like lifetime is a rip then.... so that $79.99 must be only for the version they have right now. new version, new price.
it's kinda lame to put "lifetime price" on a product like this if all they have to do is release a "3.0" version that might not have many upgrades past a visual face lift.
no thank you on this one, neat concept, poor execution.
They have a Free Premium Preview going on right now, So i though I would try it out, So far have watched some hulu, and Adult swim to great effect.
Quality is not super but very passable. and no real Frame skipping that I can tell.
I made a short vid of the nook playing adult swim on Playon. Sorry about the sound, had TV on in the background

Forgive me. Total Noob.
Didn't realize Nook was 2.1 not 2.2
Once again sorry.

Price reduction at PCWorld!

I've just seen that the Tablet S 16gb model has been reduced to £349.99 at PCWorld. That didn't take long! I might hold fire until after Christmas and see if it drops to £299.99
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/sony-s-tablet-pc-16gb-11318187-pdt.html
And the 32GB model is down from £479.99 to £429.00.
These are pretty significant price drops considering the tablet has only been out for a couple of months. Sales not too good?... Or is there a newer, faster, updated version on the horizon already? Did somebody say quad-core?...

Poor sales.
Only 500 Tablet S' have sold in the UK since September. There was an article about it but can't seem to find it now.
500, in the whole country?!
I'm not sure I believe that, but if it's true then that's shocking. Very poor.
that's impossible
anyways there is no point discussing this..it seems SONY missed the trick to ADVERTISE properly SONY S, see the status of SAMSUNG TAB!!
Samsung Tab become iconic android tab, SONY needs to learn from Samsung..
Anyways, sales are just number, IMO Sony S is better than Galaxy Tab!!

Find that hard to believe, I mean wasnt some shop in UK offering a free LCD Tv with purchase of S Tablet on release? That alone would have broken 500 sales.
http://onlygizmos.com/sony-uk-managed-to-sell-only-500-android-tablets-in-over-a-month/2011/11/
that is the link btw there is no source just an anonymous one
Yup that is the link!
Global sales numbers are also below expectations according to reports.
Yes Sony has a great product but they bungled it. For the same price the iPad is a far better package and now the well-marketed kindle fire will destroy the other tablets. There's no way Sony could sell this beauty unless they integrated their content in a cheap and/or elegant way. And that ain't gonna happen.
Not sure why anyone should be shocked that the price has dropped to be honest-it happens all the time with technology and can be expected. When I bought a fancy laptop a few years back, intel released the i3, i5 and i7 a month later and the price of my laptop plummeted.
In the end though, I researched the available tablets like a madman and am completely happy with the sony tab... it does what I bought it for very well, is getting updates and will only get better in time!

Hard to believe indeed . First 100 buyers got free 32 inch led tvs. That would mean a fifth of all sales was from a single morning in a single shop. Maybe the 500 figure is not true. Just playstation association should have created more interest.

[Q] CyanogenMod for Cube U9GT-2

Hi xda-Members,
I have a simple question:
Is the Cube U9GT-2 compatible with CyanogenMod?
I've got Gingerbread on my tablet, but I'm not really satisfied with this OS, maybe because it's developed for smartphones and not tablets.
Greets Meldamos
Hi.
Unfortunately I cannot help with your question. All I know is that some people are experimentinig with ICS (Android 4.0) on the U9GT-2, and there is a beta firmware for it if you would like to give it a try.
I am also thinking of buying one of these tablets. I found it for 230 Euros (=290 USD, =190 GBP). I was just about to press the "Add to cart" button when I saw your post.
What do you thing about this tablet? Do you have it long? Are you happy?
Also can you please PM me with the information of where you bought it from and if you were happy with the transaction (if it was an online buy)?
Thanks
Little review of U9GT-2
Well I have this tablet for 2-3 Weeks now and I don't regret it. I bought this tablet over an online-shop called cect-shop, because the support is in german and it has a warranty of 1 year. And there it costs 200€ with 25€ express shipment (there in 3 days from china to germany ^^) and 25€ toll. All in all I paid around 250€, much cheaper than here in germany where it starts at 350€ up to 700€ and not almost on a level of the capacity this tablet has. By the way if you ask cect-shop, they'll send you a stylus pen with your tablet for free.
The tablet uses Android 2.3 with Honeycomb style, not bad but could be better. The OS seems not to be build for battery saving, because the power runs of after 2-3 days in standby.
I asked the manufacturer about ICS and got the answer that they're working on it, but still need time to finish the compatibility with U9GT-2. They'll publish it on their homepage I think.
On the look it get often mistaken with an Apple iPad but it's not exactly like one. The capacitive display works fine, it discerns up to 10 fingers but you are not using 10 finger actually ^^
The sound is pretty good I think, even if I don't really know how the standard quality of tablets are. The big trouble is like I said the OS. But it's a thing you can change and does not affect the quality of this tablet.
If anyone has precise questions feel free to ask. I'm not good at writing a review.
Thanks for the valuable info.
Few questions more if you are kind enough:
1. Can you confirm the manufacturer's site? I have found one web address in China and never managed to connect
2. Can you confirm the thickness of it? Is it realy less than 10mm? Does it actually feel like an i-pad when you are carrying it around?
3. The material on the back side is it realy aluminium?
4. I have noticed that on different sites they give slightly different specs from cect.Ie pandawill gives a CPU of 1Ghz, thickness of 7mm and battery capacity 8000mAh, though cect gives 1.2Ghz, 9.7mm and 7600MAh. This is a problem with the Chinese sites / products / clones I guess... Nevertheless, since you are in Germany, you must have heard or seen an Easypix Easypad, have you? I am between the cube and the Easypad 970 (at easypix.eu). They look very similar. Do you have any personal feedback on that ?
5. Finally, does the screen look and feel like being IPS or not?
Sorry if I bother you too much, but it's the first time I buy a gadget withut actually testing or seeing one, so I am a bit concerned. Thanks

Okay let's start:
1. Yes the manufacturer is available. There are also 2 supporter for questions available via skype. They're on workdays online so you can ask them directly. But there english seems not to be very good so better you keep your questions simple
2. I measured it now, I don't warrant than my results are exactly but they're 243mm x 190mm x 10,5mm (length x width x height). I have never had an iPad (too expensive for a tablet) but it feel very comfortable if I carry it around and it's not very heavy. I don't have a balance here but I think it's around 500-700 gram. Well it doesn't feel heavy for me that's all I can say actually.
3. YES it is aluminium and what a luck it is, because on the 3. day it got pushed against a aluminium pole and has only a really small dent left. A plastic hull would have cracked I think.
4. Don't look at the GHZ, many sellers push or fake them, maybe caused by stupidness or advertising. The U9GT-2 has a Rockchip 2918 CPU. Look for the specs on google. The battery is an advertising medium. I doesn't has 8000 mhA or even 7600 mhA. I has 2 x 4000 mhA batteries but they just sum them what they shouldn't do. Like I said the OS is not optimized for tablets and it really takes too much power in stand by. When playing you don't recognize the power loss. I played 3 hours a game called "deadly dungeon" (a dungeon crawler) and the battery has got from 63% to 49%. Well I've not saw the easypad, but they're exactly the same. They've got the same capacities and even the same OS. Throw a dice from 1-3 easypad and from 4-6 U9GT-2, that would be my solution ^^... Well I don't know if easypix is working on a ICS for easypad, just know that cube is working on it.
5. Well I don't know what you understand of a "feeling" for IPS. It looks like a monitor how you see it everywhere today. Don't know if you still have a cathode ray tube (I have one), but there is a difference. Of course, the games are sucking because they're not build for 9,7" displays . Some games are smoother with the resizing, others are bad. But the quality of the display is very good. Of course, not standard on notebooks over 15,6" (which I prefer) but for 9,7" it's high resolution.
Hope my answer could help you and other people who struggle on buying a china-tablet
PS: I've got many friends who look suspect at the tablet, like it could break every second, and I'm just smiling and laughing about their prejudices.
Fantastic answers.
Thank you very much for your effort.
I will follow your advice with the dice after the holidays
Happy Christmas

STOP!!! xD... Hope you did not buy it.
Forgot to mention that the EasyPad 970 can only use 8GB Flash HDD. U9GT-2 use 16GB! You get the double storage for the same price.
Sorry for my late answer, did not recognize the difference in the first place.
Sh*t. I bought one a few days ago
I generally know what NAND flash is, but not sure about its' importance. Mine still says 5.9 Gb free, after fully loaded with apps (I know they've got nothing to do with the NAND, but I can't seem to find a way how to run out of space in NAND). In any case, it is better to have double the capacity with the same cost, no matter what.
By the way, that NAND is some soldered microchip, or it can be a micro SD card on the motherboard so that it can "easily" be upgraded in the future if the need arises?
Nevertheless, I am happy with the tablet. Already rooted and experimenting. A couple of snags though, but I will find my way around them hopefully.
By the way, is there a way to hard - reset the tablet by hardware (since there is not a pin-hole or something)? Any combination of buttons pressed during power on?
The internal flash memory is installed in form of chips. Two in the Cube, as can be seen at tabletrepublic.com/forum/android-tablet-reviews/disassembling-cube-u9gt2-414.html, presumably one in the easypad. Apparently the 8GB of the easypad are partitioned in 0,5GB for apps and the rest for data while the 16GB in the Cube are partioned in 1GB for apps and the rest for data. I have read that by installing the cube firmware on the easypad 970, one can get 1 GB for apps, too. Personally, I think 8GB internally is plenty because media files (movies etc.) usually are stored on external SDHC cards anyway for fast swapping.
My 2 cents...
I recently bought one while I was in Beijing on holiday and was really amazed with the battery life with Android 2.3, considering I was streaming movies non-stop for 14 hours straight (in comparison with and iPad 2). The multi-touch keyboard sometimes has a lag although most the UI seems to be relatively smooth.
The camera located at the back also took decent pictures during day and night.
Overall this is a neat unit under $350.00 AUD considering most other units requiring a stylus or long fingernails to operate. I will be looking at rooting the device in a few weeks after I do a bit more research.
Let me know if you have modded your unit and your thoughts.
Thanks
Cube U9GT2 USB host controller issues
Hello everyone,
I'm hoping to solve a problem here, I just purchased a Cube U9GT2 Tablet 9.7
running: Android ICS 4.0.3 with a Kernel Version:3.0.8+.
With a build number: rk29sdk-eng4.03 IML74K eng-yangyun.20120108.124417 test-keys.
It came with an OTG/USB Cable and has both a USB and a USB/OTG port.
Let me just state this, I have tested all cables, ports and jump drives and have reformatted them to fat32, they were Fat32 also.
The problem I'm having is ICS can't see any jump drives I hook up to it. I installed a program from the Market called, USB Host Ctrlr. It ran a info check after install, and here is what it said:USB Host Controller Version Number:0.42 S3C USB Host Driver NOT Found! Root Hub Present. USB Host Mode is active.
I'm no developer or even a decent novas, but with decent instructions I can execute. Any ideas how to fix this, The price was Killer, when one is buying from a Chinese Company, the support is pretty limiting when you only speak English.
That's why the great price, I'm not complaining, I just want to get this resolved if possible.
In regards to the Tablet, I really like it a lot! pretty fast, smooth interface, easy to navigate, decent keyboard, (but I'm use to a smartphone).
It plays movies very nice, screen is plenty bright, It can use a Micro-sd card up to 32 gigs. Have not had any crashes yet, had it about 2 weeks. They have raised the prices about $13.00 I had to try one at that price, plus shipping was Free! I ordered it late on a Sunday night in USA, got it in 3 days DHL shipping, Hard to beat. Anyhow if anyone can help here, it sure be very appreciated. I would even be willing to pay something if reasonable.
If anyone is interested i can provide brand new AUTHENTIC CUBE U9GT2 at the price of euro 240.00.
The price include express shipping to all around the world (4-5 business days).
I am sending from European country so residents of EU will not pay additional taxes or VAT !!!
Let me know.

Pls check your PM

I plan to buy a prototype of oppo find x,with mysterious specs!! is it a good deal?!

I add that it is a particular seller, and he claims to have obtained the sample in France via a parent to him, it can help understand?

finally, on one of the photos there is a crack on the back of the phone, what will be the best price at which I can buy it?
thank you.

* another detail, which is not on the photos, with the CPU info application downloaded on the play store, in the hardware part I get an SDM630! and in the storage pane I have 4GB of memory used and 8GB of total memory, contrary to what the shortcuts "about the phone" indicates and contrary to what I receive with the application CPU Z info, whose results are On the photos
finally, on one of the photos there is a crack on the back of the phone, what will be the best price at which I can buy it?
thank you.

D/L the app AIDA 64 to get an even better idea of what the phone actually has inside.
It may lack some components that would make the phone less desirable to own.
Myself, I wouldn't spend any money on it at all. However, if you like to collect items/one-offs such as this,start out with an offer of 1/4 of retail & go from there....

I thank you for the quick answer ! according to you would it be a software or hardware limitation, and for the price, if you were in my place, what would be the maximum price you would pay for this piece?

I couldn't guess a price until after I was assured the phone has the same functionality as the one available to the general public.
If it's a store demo, more than likely the functionality is crippled.
Even with full functionality, I wouldn't offer any more than 25% of whatever retailers are selling it for in your area.....

in my country it has not yet been launched, can you tell me how much it is currently in store? the only thing that makes me hesitate is the lack of slot memory card, because until proven otherwise, the phone has only 8 can be 16 GB of memory, according to the photos, meanwhile to have it in hand and to try the application you have suggested to me (AIDA 64)

I think it's the lite version, which has been used as development support, because if you noticed in the photos "about the phone", the version of the rom is dated February 5, 2018
before you leave, let me ask you if it is possible to send me in private the captures similar to those of photos from your phone, about phone, cpu z info, and other photos that define the differences
thank you very much and have a good day

other reviews please ?
I'll add this & I'm done:
At minimum, you're dealing with someone who sells counterfeit/knockoff phones.
But, if you're convinced this is a prototype , it's likely been stolen,no way in Hell Oppo would approve..... discussion of buying such a phone in the forums is certainly frowned upon by the Admin/Staff here @ XDA......

Accept the phone only if the seller will give it to you for nothing along with further compensating you in the form of hard cash; for wasting your time. Seriously, purchase only if you feel you must prove a sucker is born every minute.
What's wrong with this guy
Use logical reasoning and common sense my friend
hello guys, do not get upset, it's not my fault if I was lucky to find a piece of the flagship for almost nothing, the seller gave me the monster yesterday against a payment equivalent to $ 45, so I had the time to explore it and the results will surprise you even more than the price that it cost me I leave you with the pictures !
since this is the fifteenth answer of the thread, I pay tribute to VC15
