Hello,
It seems i keep hitting the same problem when ever I try to access a stream video with my TD2.
For example whenever I try to view online news or other such streams I keep getting error messages like (“Flash player not installed” or “Java Script not enabled”) although I installed Macromedia Flash player ActiveX and ofc I have enabled Java – so what is the problem ??
Maybe I’m doing something wrong.
Here are some sites that I can’t use (ignore the language just click the picture and c if it works)
1.
Videonews.ro
2.
http://85.9.12.243/a3/watch3.php?year=2009&month=5&day=22&show=bizbazar - just click on any of the dates of the show and it should start (at least it does on the PC but on the phone it gives an error)

I hope i helped!
i will try u`r advice tomorrow and let u know how it turned out
thx a lot for u`r time.
p.s. what is opera turbo and when will it come out ?
ty
opera turbo is in beta. Search youtube for it and you ll see . its new technology of opera
i have installed the new opera and besides that it works pretty bad compared with the one i had before, the videos still don`t work (
rly am i doing smt wrong ? do I need any other addons or smt ?
do i need to reinstall the PC version of FP ?
any hints would be great.
thx
(did i had to uninstall the old opera first, the 1 that came with the device first ? cuz i didn`t... )
and one more thing, if i want the "old' opera back how can I uninstall this new vers as it does not appear in the 'remove programs' - this would not be so important if the streaming videos would work but since they don`t ...
ok new info on the new opera: it much smarter then the original one but also much slower in every way (truth is i like it better)
BUT i still can`t look at the damn streaming videos - still getting the message ' you need to install Flash Player to watch this video'
what can i do ?
did you uninstall all other flash addons you installed before? it should work dunno. else wait for next version of opera
does not work, i have reinstalled FP7 and no change, after that i uninstalled FP7 and added Flash Lite 2.1 - and still not working
did any1 fix this problems or is it just my device ??
Hey
The first (Android) smartphone with camera that can really compete with the digital cameras and no section for it?
Modding it would be great
Altek A14 Leo
Altek Leo Section
regarding the serious problems the Altek Leo has, as no google apps, not even market, no rooting published, no adobe flash, firefox will not install and so on,
a section would be useful for the distessed owners of this camera phone which
is more a fumble phone than a smart phone. Its advantages are a very good lens, an outstanding CCD chip, a xenon flash and professional camera software.
True, is buggy
I bought one actually and despite it being pretty buggy, I just absolutely love the camera.
Definitely needs some software love though:
1) Interface is pretty sluggish and 2.1 isn't helping, the latest android performance improvements would be nice.
2) Touch-screen is strangely inaccurate. Swype was a must for me.
3) Battery life is pretty bad (not certain how much a newer Android would help, but any amount of powersaving fixes would help).
4) Buttons/widgets to lock the screen (e.g. Extended Controls) don't work.
5) The camera button doesn't open the camera when the phone is locked (debatable I guess, but imo, the camera button should just open the camera, period).
6) Default alarm clock doesn't ring randomly.
7) Not to mention apps randomly crashing, strange animation bugs in the Album viewer, no google apps, terrible GPS, etc.
But despite those, I've managed to work my way round them and am in love with it.
Alex
I have one of these and I do like the quirkyness .
I would love to improve the experience by modding.
Quirkyness fits well
To continue the list (more than enough for a forum)
- Backups by Titanium, AVG or Nandroid do not work because i have no idea
how to root the Altek Leo.
- WLAN range is still very short and does not always an automatic reconnect.
- I could not manage to make any browser play flash files, but the moboplayer
plays flv files well.
- Apps like soundhound say the microphone is blocked.
About half of the apps i need are not available because they will not install
or they are exclusively available over google market and getting them from
file hosters seems a bit risky to me. Most of this problems seem to be caused
by the small software space of 120 MB for files and 83 MB for running
applications.
But i will keep the Altek Leo and use it because the camera prooved itself
as outstanding among mobile phones.
- I use the application stores Applanet, Amazone Appstore, Handango,
SlideMe SAM and the tools Memory Booster Lite, Android Tweak.
Does anyone discovered any other useful helpers for this half of an
ANDROID device ?
"We do not need any adobe flash, we have got a real xenon flash."
Where To Buy
Does anyone know where to pick up/order one of these units?
Here To Buy
Search at Ebay, you will need a Paypal account.
I bought mine from Wifigadget.
Eason of Yupitek provides International Customer Service,
have a look at the facebook pinwall.
Thanks for the tips! Really like Memory Booster and Swype.
If you're on a mac, the "missing sync" from markspace is well worth the buy - particularly given that there does not seem to be a way to add a Google account under accounts and sync - it's missing on my altek leo! Anyone elses too?
Also recommend "Lookout" if you're worried about virus from no easy way to get apks other than file sharing sites.
Despite the quirks, very happy with this all-in-one device - music player + phone + camera - 3 down to 1! Fantastic!
Vignette
Sidenote, 'Vignette' is the perfect app for this device.
It doesn't fix any of the quirkiness, but it's a photo manipulation tool which complements the fantastic camera perfectly.
You can take your pics and then touch them up making the phone a studio for all things photography.
You can purchase it from the AndAppStore.
By poor battery life, how many days do you get out of it?
root and market
Has anyone tried the Gingerbreak exploit? I heard it might work on older devices. Also, if you don't trust file sharing sites and want stuff from the market. You could try running an emulator and installing the Market on that, then sideloading the APKs. I haven't tried it myself yet, but it seems there are a lot of people doing this. Here's one HOWTO which is specific to Mac but I think it's prety much the same or at least you should be able to use the same system image. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1387830/how-to-install-android-market-app-on-the-emulator there are lots of other links if you google "android market emulator" I don't have the Leo yet because they're sold out in Taiwan, but I've got mine on order. I'm most interested whether the google apps work at all if they're sideloaded. I've just sort of bricked my older Cyanogen device. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Oh, here's a Windows specific link - http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/10004/accessing-android-market-from-android-sdk/
and be careful with Gingerbreak!
There's also UniversalAndRoot to try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747598
and SuperOneClick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
Poor battery-life
@rocky7st
It depends on usage. Light usage is ok. Any sort of medium/heavy usage won't get you through the day.
I bought it from an ebay seller which sent me 2 batteries which was helpful:
cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230614421067
It's is useful since it allows me to occasionally geek out with the camera, playing with apps or using the GPS (i.e. 2 hours straight) and and it'll completely run out of juice by late afternoon.
I usually wait till I get home to recharge it on those occasions, but it's been very useful to be able to switch to the backup battery if I'm out and about and I really need to use the phone.
@everyone_else
On the topic of side-loading apps, my gf has an Android phone with a market on it, so I use the "Astro" file manager which allows you to "Backup" the apks, and then I transfer them to my phone via email.
I've been unable to get my device to show up with adb, so not far enough to try SuperOneClick.
UniversalAndRoot says something like "unable to root"
Z4Root says "running root exploit" and does not progress..
That's bad news but good to know at the same time. Hopefully there will be a method soon. Still waiting on mine but I unbricked my older one. Seems to be an almost total lack of hands-on reviews (outside of a trade show) so I thought someone might be interested in this one. Also, I emailed the author to see whether and how he installed the Market app.

Cheers for the reply jackflap. Do you guys know anything about the Android 2.2 upgrade, I've heard Altek is meant to be releasing it next month.
Okay, I got SuperOneClick working so I have root. ADB worked in windows after installing the Altek software.
ADB in linux still cannot find the phone..
So I tried installing various vending.apk files but keep getting MISSING SHARED LIBRARY or out of date SDK.
@daktak I've been trying to develop for the Leo but have not been able to get ADB to work in windows. Where did you obtain the Altek software?
Hi All,
I am a complete noob here and non technical.
Recently bought an altek leo with the sole purpose of loading an app called Passport Photo Plus and using the device to create passport photopgraphs and to send by Bluetooth to a compatible printer.
We have been doing this on other android smartphones but wanted to use the altek due to its camera features.
It appears that our desired app is ony avaiable on Market.
Being non -technical we have tried and failed to find a way to install this app on our leo.
I'm sure there may be other apps available but we specifically want this one due to it's features.
Does anybody know if this can be done, and if so how? Can anybody point me in the right direction (in easy to understand non tech terms please!)
Would happily pay a small fee for succesful step by step instructions (not sure if I can post that here, if not please ignore / mods pls delete).
Many thanks in advance.
Recently attempted to view a embedded flash video (youtube) posted inside a android applications internal browsers and was confronted with a black box saying I needed to upgrade flash.
I'm currently using the most up to date version of flash available in the android market place. I'm just wondering if this is an issue on my part or if it's the way the video was posted? Does the application need to be coded in order to point to the player or flash embedded somehow into the application itself?
Not sure if an answer can be found without me giving more information that I don't have but figured I would ask anyways.
I have a samsung captivate but the issue was faced by all android users.
PS- We where able to view the video without issue if we simply went to the forums via our phones browsers.
Thanks for any information,
Sorry if this sounds stupid, but I'd like to ask if anyone has figured out how to run Adobe Flash properly on the ChaCha. I've checked Adobe's website, and no, the ChaCha/Status is not listed as a supported unit. Between Adobe killing off further support for Flash and what seems like so far non-existent updates from HTC (there was supposed to be some sort of secruity flaw on certain HTC Android phones, but I've got no firmware updates from HTC or AT &T on my phone from the Settings of the phone ... I've had the phone since almost the second week it came it in America, where I am) it looks like there will be no official release of Adobe Flash 10 or 11 showing up in the Android Market Place for us ChaCha users. I have tried out .apk files from various websites (probably XDA would have been one ... not sure) and got it to install, but wouldn't display flash like it should, just like the default flash support of the ChaCha, which is very limited. I have been able to play a flash game and some videos over the standard web browser with the default flash, but nothing extra with Adobe Flash. I've tried this with 10 and 11 versions, one for Droid, which is supported for Adobe Flash. The 10 did nothing but install without actually doing anything else, and the 11 took me to an Adobe settings page, but I couldn't navigate it fully as there were parts of the screen cut off and an icon I couldn't click no matter how hard I tried. I am guessing there must be some configuration issues in the internal memory files, or just isn't compatible. I can't root right now as I need to find a shop in Sacramento that can do S-off (can't afford XTC Clip now). As a related note, on standard Nokia and Samsung phones (that aren't smart phones) I have successfully run various J2ME programs that were not intended for the device. I was even able to run a game for the Nokia Series 60 phones on a Samsung BlackJack, which is of course Windows Mobile 6 based, but couldn't play due to the keyboard layout. I have had two Nokia Series 40 phones, one which still works, sort of, the Nokia 6030B. The point of this digression is that I figured there would likely be a way to run Android software not intended for the particular device I have, the ChaCha of course. Oh, and since I mentioned J2ME software, anyone been able to run it on the ChaCha, or any Android device? Just curious.
Ask and you shall recieve: http://www.androidcampus.in/2011/10/adobe-flash-player-102-for-armv6-and.html
Full adobe flash for armv6 devices like ours. Not flash lite but the real thing. It runs out of the box on the SuperOSR rom, but you'll probably need to remove flash lite from a Sense based rom in order for this to work, which ultimately means having to be S-OFF.
Sent from my A810e using XDA Premium App
Thanks!
Much as I suspected ... would need to root. After Christmas I will look around for a repair/mod shop that can S-off with the XTC Clip or reliable clone. There were several operating out of the Westfield Downtown Plaza (Sacramento) but I do not know if they are still there given how barren much of the mall is now. Also I had a Nokia or Samsung 'dumb phone' I wanted a cable for, and ended up getting one that didn't work, with the wrong drivers on a mini disc. Once I do get S-off by this or other means that may come up in the future I will look into the post you mentioned. According to Wikipedia, Arm 6 is supposed be similiar to Arm 7 but with less instruction sets available. I suppose this is why Adobe's official flash app would not be compatible, but there is no reason why some other flash app from homebrew or whatever might not do something better than the default Android flash (well, default if you didn't get a phone with Adobe Flash on there from the get go ... I think those are all higher spec phones, like some of the Motorola Droid phones). This may be for the best anyway, as Adobe has forsaken the mobile phone users of the world as far as flash goes. Hopefully they will keep Acrobat going. That is a good app to have, albeit not as good as on PC (and Mac?). Sorry if I sound newbish, because I am a newb as far as the technical details. Not since my Nokia 3030b have a had a phone with as much independent development as the ChaCha. I could have done more with that Nokia if it only had an SD card slot or a readily available cable for purchase. Oh well. No point in bothering with that now.
awesome...didn't know there are any flash versions out there for arm6...
so are there any news for version 11 of adobe flash player for arm6?
Tried out the download
After installing the modified Adobe Flash 10.1 APK I tried a some from the Marketplace that said Adobe Flash was needed and a couple worked. I also tried a number of Flash videos and Flash sites and got mixed results. Some wouldn't show up but most ran, but slowly (except for sound). Maybe one or two ran right but I think they may have been optimized for mobile devices. I ran some NicoVideo viewers on my phone and only one was actually able to display the video (complete with Nico's unique comments flashing by during the videos). However, it actually downloaded the videos to the SD card, and MoboPlayer already runs FLV files so it's a bit hard to gauge how effective the Adobe Flash would be, or even if it's running. I checked Adobe's Shockwave page and the little animation came up as well as 'you have version 10,1,1,102,54 installed'. The same would later prove true for the regular Adobe Flash page as well. I repeatedly installed and uninstalled the Flash from the list of installed programs on my phone, but am still able to get the same results regardless of whether it was installed or not. I have a feeling some files must have been stored permanently in Root, which I cannot access as I am S-On, but am not quite sure. As the ChaCha does have rudimentary flash support from the get go despite not being a phone officially supported for the Adobe Flash APK, I cannot be certain. Does anyone with an officially supported phone for Adobe Flash 10.1 get similiar results? How about a rooted phone? Also if anyone has successfully gotten Adobe Flash 11 to run on ChaCha let me know if your flash performance improved from 10.1. Of course even an Adobe Flash APK that is fully useful for our ChaChas would only be of limited use, given Java, Silverlight, and various other plugins, scripts, etc. that currently are in use for videos, video games, and online apps, so don't think that you will be able to run anything. Having Adobe Flash working, even on a so-so level, is a big help though. Please post any experiences you may have had with Adobe Flash or basic Android flash players on your phone and any monkeying around you may have done to make it work or work better.
Tried out some .SWF files off line successfully
With Smart SWF Player (would be good player for just watching Shockwave Flash videos, as opposed to .FLV, files, which run fine too but MoboPlayer already does that well, were it not for the ads. Did not see any ad free version for sale in Market) and SWF Player File Viewer (this has an ad free version, but couldn't press any of the keyboard buttons but space ... maybe I need to look more into it) I was able to successfully run flash files, other than FLV which several video players already do, such as MoboPlayer. SWF Player Filer Viewer said that I had not installed the Adobe Flash Plugin, but ran the files anyway. Upon clicking it I was taken to the Android Marketplace, where it pulled up Adobe Flash 11 which of course is not officially compatible with the ChaCha. Thought I would report my findings. It seems hunch in the last post so far seems correct - Adobe Flash is still on the phone, somewhere, based upon what I have been able to do and see thus far, but isn't quite working as well as it ought to. Perhaps Adobe Flash 11 would do things right? By the way, in the official Marketplace one will see an app called 'Flash Player 12' - I have not tried to run it as the same developer also supposedly had Chrome and GTA (like on a PC or PS2) for Android. That seems quite fishy to me.
here Adobe Flash Player 10.3 for ARM6 Processors...
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23720575/do...d_higher_com.adobe.flashplayer_10.3.186.3.apk
Update: seems like it's not installing....
not sure why
Don't know why your 10.3 did not install. Did you try going to Adobe's Flash plugin site to test it out? If it installed it show your flash version and display an animated banner.

Yes! Flash 10.2 is running on my HTC ChaCha, I've shared how I did it in a tutorial here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1475575
Root is required, but as you probably know, the XTC clip is no longer required for root. I've added instructions for it all anyway
Currently, there is not a option to run Adobe Flash but a flash edition for BlackBerry is in the performs hopefully this season. Actually, I heard about it at ChaCha as well.
so nice
Usefull question thx
Actually, this is my first thread but I need some help. I'm using an android device with Jellybean (4.2.2), 1.2 GHz Dual-Core CPU and 1 GB RAM. I updated Instagram to latest version exist at all (10.33.0). But I don't have the option to create live stories or even watch them! I also don't have the option to face filters . I think it is something they added to apk file. It probably detects that I have low spec phone and it hides these options . I have a theory actually. I think it is possible to mod that apk and enable these options. Because I know my phone is capable of streaming and watching them (i can watch live streams on other apps). I tried to edit apk but i couldn't . So I need someone experienced at modding apk. Can u guys help me? (Pretty Please )
Edit: I also want to say that I was able to watch streams for few hours (I did nothing). I thought it was a bug and it is fixed but then, it disappeared again.
Hi , i think this serious problem of Instagram ,I recommended see Youtube and find your solution .Its time you should contact experience man .I hope you will find solution very soon .
