Working full Flash (not flash lite) without using froyo!!!!

Since I hadn't seen this posted I wanted to let everyone know that they can get full working flash on their Evo's without having to install Froyo. I in no way take credit for this work (AuxLV originally posted this in the Nexus One forum). Without any further delay here is the apk. Just install and enjoy!

bunk then?

if it is bunk (not sure yet) then it would probably be best to uninstall since it is probably slowing down our browsers, anyone have any flash sites or heavy flash ad sites i can try for you?
flash adds are working nicely on gizmodo so far.
updat, its doing something now that i'm on a video but it got hung up gonna refresh, guy streaming boondocks where you doing it from.

Streaming from here: http://www.divxden.com/61jc8zcxrc0x/the.boondocks.s03e04.hdtv.xvid-fqm.flv.html

that site works just fine wonder how bad it eats battery though.

One way to find out lol

I just get little hour glasses in all of the flash spots, and they never load. I'm using wifi, so it isn't a speed issue.

I'm able to stream from youtube with no problem. Are you using android 2.1 or froyo? I'm running everything stock and it's working. maybe try reinstalling the apk and then try closing your browser and reopening it. Not sure why it isn't working for you.

Did you remove flash light first before installing?

No. I didn't have to remove anything. All I did was install that apk and restart my browser. After doing that site that normally would not have worked are working for me now.

Adultswim.com works. Even loaded a flash game.
This gives me a chubby boner.

[Q] Amazon Instant Video Store

Has anyone tried using this on their transformer? Does it work. I'm thinking it shouls because it is based on flash, unless amazon blocked it for some reason.
Has amazon cloud music worked for you too?

Edit: works great on the transformer too.

Netflix instant streaming doesn't use flash it uses Silverlight. That's it why it won't work on android devices without an app.

I followed the link, I see 3 apk files, should I install all 3?

I downloaded the new client from the Xoom forum and it's working fine for me. Had to uninstall the old one first but just watched a Deadliest Warrior with no problems.

I read that all Netflix video performance enhancers are bogus. What's different about this one?

Ya they dont do anything special i have never seen any change so i just run the stock app as now that it works fine on almost everything no reason to hack someones app as it can only piss off the people who did all the work to make it in the first place but thats just my thoughts

Can anyone who lives in Canada tell me if they can get streaming on their Transformer?
I get this little popup:
This device cannot instantly stream from Netflix in your area. Visit ca.netflix.com/NRD to see a full list of devices that instantly stream from Netflix.
Weird thing is I see people using Netflix all over Calgary.
Edit: Nevermind
To get netflix working do this:
1) Make sure you are updated to 8.6.5.9
2) Make sure you download the latest netflix package here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07...st-phones-too/
3) Install netflix from the apk BUT DO NOT LOGIN YET (If you have already please clear the applications data.)
5) Sign up here: http://www.vpnreactor.com
6) Go on your tansformer and setup the VPN in wireless and network settings. (Pretty straightforward username password and url.)
7) Connect to the VPN
8) Login to Netflix
9) Pick any video and let it play for 15 seconds
10) Disconnect VPN
11) Reboot yout Transformer
12) Use Netflix without VPN

Didnt get to test it too much, but the one difference for me was the red Netflix startup logo.
Before, it was stretched and looked a little "chunky" (almost as if in safe mode)
Now, the "Netflix" Letters are smaller and sharper.
Ill have to try other videos, but was streaming Prison Break episode and fast forwarded/rewinded, and the buffering time was quick.
Before, it seemed to take longer.
btw. installed the first link

Netflix 1.4.0 working on my non-rooted Transformer
I was able to download, install and use Netflix (1.4.0 build) today on my Eee Pad Transformer.
My Transformer is "NOT-rooted".
My Transformer is updated to Honeycomb 3.2 version.
The only issue I have noticed is that "Search" is not working, the Search issue has already been mentioned by several others on this site.

Atrix 2 and HDMI Mirroring

I purchased the Atrix 2, and tested out playing tv shows using various video players through HDMI mirroring and each video file on every video player resulted in jerky video playback. Plays fine on phone, even plays fine on original atrix using hdmi and video playback mode.
Anyone else who has an atrix 2 have this problem?

Guess the Atrix 2 just isnt as good as the first one. Unless your tv just cant handle that substantial upgrade you made, and now you are forced to upgrade your TV.
On a serious note now, try restarting your phone.. Install take killer and see how much ram you have to play with. Or you just might have to wait for a update from Moto. Could be some codec hardware/software issues. Good luck!

Task killer is nothing but a battery drainer, dont install it please!

I demuxed the video files and the video plays 100% smooth with NO audio. I am converting the audio to mp3 to see if the video will play fine with that codec.

File with mp3 audio didnt even play but I converted the aac audio from 48hz to 44hz and that made a difference. File with 48hz noticeably had alot of frame jumps while file with 44hz still had frame jumps but it didnt have that many. Both files look fine on phone. Problem is while mirroring.

Don't install a Task Killer just use the one the phone comes with that is built in.

Ok so I just tried HDMI Mirroring and it works flawlessly granted you really need to reformat the videos to an acceptable format considering I tried to watch a non formated .mkv video and because of the compression of that video type it did stutter a bit. .avi has a slight issue with Not actually playing at least the one I attempted anyway. .mp4 played perfectly with no issues at all. Will let you know if I figure out any tricks for optimizing videos.
Edit: Yea ok so after playing with Multiple Videos it seems that it depends on the compression of the video as far as I can tell, considering I just got a bunch of Other .avi's to function with no issues at all. So yea seems video related.

All the files I tested were video files I already converted to work with my Atrix, which works on my atrix perfectly fine using the Entertainment Center feature of the original Atrix. The files also work perfectly fine on the SGS 2 mirroring. The files play perfectly fine on the Atrix 2 with the exception of mirroring, the frames jerk randomly. I removed the audio from the video file and it worked perfectly. I tried playing a low res divx and it still did the frame jumps.

I had already tried rock player and just tried dice player and the frames still jump. The files play perfectly fine on the phone itself with stock player and any other player. The problem is when you try playing it while in HDMI mirror mode.

how does the games look with HDMI mirror? ie: angy birds, need for speed? any frame drops?

Angry birds played fine Ill download need for speed now

I just tried mirroring FPSE and it lagged real bad. I mirror it just fine on SGS2 and original atrix using photon rom.
Wack.
Also here is a video showing the Samsung Galaxy s2 mirroring FPSE just fine, however Atrix 2 cant seem to handle it.
FPSE runs smoother in Atrix Webtop mode then it does in Atrix 2 mirror mode

I cant install NFS Shift, when trying to download it just says NaN 0mb

Good news is I posted this over at motorola forums and Mark, the forum moderator said that motorola will look into this problem.
Hopefully they do some sort of fix.

My experience is that Mark will pass the issue on. He has no control over what happens after that, but he will bring it to the attention of someone higher up.

Hello buddy, seems you got the Atrix2 already. i just have some questions on this
is the CPU TI4440 or TI4430?
is the display pixel arrangements RGB or Pentile?
does the display satisfy you?
does the camera satisfy you?
thanks.

Hey Shanghei,
How does the atrix 2's screen look? Is it nicer than the Atrix 1? Is it Pentile technology?

[GUIDE]Install Working Amazon Instant Video

Hello, I tried getting amazon instant video up and running a few different ways and found it to be unreliable at best. I found an easy method that seems to work flawlessly. I've only watched 1 show so far but it worked like a charm, here is how you do it:
1. Install Kodi (i think x86 is the correct one): http://kodi.tv/download/
2. Install this addon repository: https://code.google.com/p/addonscri...=repository.addonscriptorde-beta.zip&can=2&q=
for more info check this thread: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=215255
3. Install the Amazon Instant Video player from his repo
4. Login and watch video
pretty easy, especially since most people probably have kodi installed already, and if you dont, you should.

Are you using this inside the US? I had problems playing most of the videos when the plugin was released. Wondering if they figured it out yet...

not sure what is going on. it is working fine on my end. i've watched probably 6 or so episodes of the americans without issue. i read somewhere in that thread i posted above that you may need to adjust video stream resolution size if you have problems, you may want to check out that thread for support. i set mine to 1080p but it appears to be playing in 720p which is fine for me cause i mainly watch it in my bedroom which is not my main tv.
