Well i got my G Tab Yesterday and am using VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition STABLE RC1 and i had a question i have flash 10.2 already and it works fine with sites but when i use the youtube app for some reason it plays the videos abit choppy so i was wondering.
Does anybody know what could be causing the youtube app to play videos like that? any information would be appreciated it and well first time posting here since i finally got my tab and nice to meet you all.
The issue is that gingerbread has no hardware video decoding so some higher quality content is going to play choppy on any 2.3 based rom until we get some drivers from nvidia (if we ever do). So unfortunately if you plan to do a lot of video on your tab you may have to stick to the 2.2 roms until something gets figured out.
Sent from my ACS frozen Epic 1.1 and counting.
So, like the title says, does Nexus S have Wifi-Direct compatible hardware? Wifi-Direct does not show up in the settings on my NS. Some people have reported to have it though. Is it that they in fact have the 4G model, which has it? Or is it because my ROM / kernel does not support it? I am running CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0 v3.4.
i am not sure about it, but older motorola with gingerbread had it, so it is either a HW limitation of samsung vs. motorola, or motorola just implemented it in its bloatware roms
Adobe announced today that they won't support flash on jelly bean devices, what do you think I know that I would miss slash very much as many web sites out there use flash as their primary way of streaming video, true some a them support Html 5, but most of them don't, what do you think?
Jelly Bean isn't much of a change system wise from ICS (most of the changes were added software) and users have reported success with the ICS version of flash working on JB.
Seeing how slow its been getting ICS on non Nexus devices, its probably going to be 2013 before we see JB shipping on most new devices. Its around 1.5 to 2 years before most people switch to a new device unless you have to have the latest. If market share of new Android versions continues to be lagging its likely JB won't be unsupported by new software until around 2015.
Hopefully by them HTML5 will be more widely used, or else we'll get enough JB users that refuse to upgrade forcing developers to still support it, kind of like Windows XP.
Device: Xoom LTE MZ602 [STINGRAY]
ROM: OmniROM 4.4.4
Problem: No support/function for video calling and some other apps
Attempted resolution: Read below
So it seems that Android no longer supports the Tegra2 after 4.1.2 due to not having the NEON instructions set. I am currently running OmniROM 4.4.4 and am unable to get certain apps that I presume require NEON support.
The thing is, even attempting to use older versions of apps, Duo for instance (which originally supported 4.1), does not work. I believe that there are non-NEON hardware libraries that are not compiled into 4.4.4 ROMs available for the Xoom. Not sure what would be required to provide full compatibility.
OmniROM for this Acer device (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705989) claims to have support for Tegra2. I have previously tried to place the non-NEON libraries from a 4.1.2 Xoom ROM into the one I'm using to no success (I'm no developer). I'm guessing the ROM either needs to have these baked in or there are other dependencies that are less obvious.
I just want apps like Messenger and Duo to work for video calling. At this point, I may just go to 4.1.2 even though I don't want to.
Thanks
You might as well just roll back. Its sad how bad tegra2 support is, but I guess thats what we get for using a motorola xoom in 2018. I for one am not giving up, this tablet is ****ing awesome, I am definitely getting a Xoom 2 Next.
Well I rolled back to 4.1.2 stock ROM w/ root. Still have the same issues with the app functionality. I will say it seems JB runs smoother than KK. Even Chrome Beta still doesn’t work. It doesn’t even open.
Something similar to LineageOS, with minimal bloat and lag. I'm thinking of buying this, but seeing people having issues with performance just from switching apps and rotating orientations, which shouldn't really be happening considering the specs on this thing.
Sorry to not quite answer your question, but as a P11 Plus owner I'd advise against purchasing it.
Software support is atrocious. It should be much smoother with the hardware it has, but feels overall laggy. We're still stuck on A11 and they should only begin to roll A12 soon(TM) now that A13 is already out, and that's probably the end for this device's support. Not even 12L.
There's very little in the way of custom ROMs or I'd already have flashed mine.
I'd pick whatever I could afford from Samsung if I were shopping for a tablet today. Even the A8 seems better.
It's THAT bad? would it really be worse than my 2015 Nvidia Shield K1?
Does the P11 Plus not have any stock roms at all?
Does the A8 have stock roms?
I mean all I want to do on it is watch video files, streaming, basic web browsing, read comics... just absolute bare bones stuff. how bad could it be for that stuff?

It's ok for watching videos and reading comics. I use Mx Player and Tachiyomi.
Browsing is overall sluggish. I tried using a bluetooth mouse to help but it feels laggy. It's just better to browse on whatever smartphone you have.
Flashing custom ROMs is a bad idea if you want to stream anything as you'd lose widevine L1.

If you care about software, it's bad. Not worthless bad, but annoyingly bad.
Video decoding and rendering works well. Network, storage, audio, bluetooth works good.
There's nothing too wrong with it that makes it unusable. It's just slower than it should be for the hardware it has and software is outdated despite being a relatively new device.
Not sure about the situation of roms on the A8. Samsungs are bad for flashing in general. I wouldn't flash it anyway as losing Widevine L1 is a big no on a tablet used for watching videos.
I checked now and it also seems to still be on A11, so it's also bad over there.
Eh, Android tablet landscape looks ugly.
If you want it go for it, but be mindful software support (either official or custom) isn't great, is all.
I wasn't and ended up a bit disappointed.

Uh, there are definitely custom roms with Widevine L1 support
As a p11 plus owner .I think it's a great tablet..does everything I need from it..just received android 12..
Aß a Xiaoxin pad plus owner I can say ZUI Rom (Chinese version) is much more fluent then international rom
If English is just fine for you, then go with that xiaoxin, it's a subbrand of Lenovo. Yes it has playstore. But don't buy the one that has a global rom preinstalled, the are ****ty according to some posts here
Hmm. Lenovo has a 1 month return policy. And there's this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...mate-app-manager-debloat-tool-tweaks.4147837/
I'll see how it is.
Are there no really no roms for the US Plus version?
