Flash on X8 ? - XPERIA X8 General

Hey guys
I was just wondering wether it's possible to use Adobe Flash on the Xperia X8. I have browsed the web for quite a while but didn't find anything interesting. It seems FlashLite isn't available for the X8 and the 'real' version isn't compatible with the X8's processor. I would love to be able to play the flash games on my SD. Btw, I'm using the fantastic Floyo 0.25 ROM. Any suggestion would be helpful.

No. Our proc doesnt support it.
But, maybe in future yes. Qualcomm now works on ARMv6 processors, but they are focused on 800mhz now.

And FlashLite then? I used Flash even on my Acer E101 (WM6) with 500mhz proc, and it went very well actually. It was running FlashLite 3.1

No. But, you have one flashlite enabled rom, but it's not so god. it's laggy.

legend & flash 10.1

I know that adobe said itself that it won't get..but is there any chance that we can get it any way? flash on the legend will be awesome!
I do not think so..
I hope someone makes a way to make it work though someday
Excuse me but flash 10.1 will work on legend with froyo 2.2. Am I wrong?

I believe that the legends processor isn't powerful enough to run flash 10.1 but it is still in beta and will most likely run eventually.
However, given a few weeks I'm sure the modding community can make it work if it isn't supported out the door.
I saw a published test recently and the legend will be faster than the snap dragon processors because the screen resolution is less and therefore doesn't have to work as hard. So I doubt that is the reason flash won't work

That might explain why my Legend seems to be faster than my colleague's Galaxy S.
Basically everywhere i see,everyone says that flash doesn't work..
I'm not saying it does work just the processor speed is not the cause

DUDE!!!!!
Like in other posts, you are very pessimistic. Chill out a bit and let the things come on their own.
Flash will definitely work.
With 2.2 froyo, the legends processor will be able to churn out rougly 8megaflops as per linpak testing.
This is higher than what a 1ghz snapdragon processor was doing in a nexus one in android 2.1 eclair.
Couple that with the lower resolution of the legend screen, the extra ram that will be freed up in 2.2, and flash will work peachy.
Adobe already announced that flash 10.1 requires a ARMv7 based cpu which we clearly don't have (legend: armv6).
The armv7 has an extended instruction set over the v6... they would have to make a whole new client for all the "older" cpu-s out there (without using the instructions that are not present in the v6, replacing them with slower ones), so we probably won't see any 10.1 from adobe.
Let's just hope that htc will make us something similar.

flash player for arm v6

hello all I'm here to ask if he'd be possible to modify the file libflashplayer.so and silk libysshared.so end it compatible with our arm v6?
impossible
Delete me please
it does it would not change the instruction for arm 7 in the arm of 6?
I just want to say...
When adobe first anounced that they will make an android version, they were aming for arm6 and arm7. Somewhere on adobe site I read that arm6 project was abadon because arm6 version had problems... something like this.
Anyway , it was stupit to close the develop site of arm6 and also they didnt give the code in order other developers to develop it farther, as they are BORED to do it.
or you one could find these sources?
"Adobe said t will optimize Flash for use on ARM architecture (ARMv6 and ARMv7 architectures used in the ARM11 family and the Cortex-A series of processors) and release it in the second half of 2009"
Wiki:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash_Player
"technology optimization is targeted for the ARMv6 and ARMv7architectures"
Original anounced:
http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/pressroom/pressreleases/200811/111708ARMAdobeFlash.html
They did not get bored they hit problems so left it for now I.read some where that they will pick it up at a later date
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
... there were problems, but you cant say they wasnt able to get over them... Ok first of all it is free so we cant blame adobe for not developing flash for arm v6.
May be that I am going to say is stupit...., I think there are alternative flash for linux, what about them?
Hmm, I doubt they will work on it anymore because almost all the newer devices use ARMv7/cortex-A8 or newer processors. ARMv6 was the older generation. It's getting outdated.
However, qemu can emulate ARMv7 on ARMv6. So, am guessing porting is indeed possible if you try an emulation layer instead of porting the entire source. Another alternative would be to make a working package of GNASH(open source flash). It's buggier than Adobe Flash but can do more than Flash Lite and something is better than nothing.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Gingerbread Update Might Deliver Multi-touch and Mor

Might is a very tame word. Considering the device does not have the ability to handle anything more than dual touch, this is interesting news.
it will bring multi-touch, resolution 1024x768, blu-ray support.. etc..
and all that on 2.9.26 kernel build.. uv, oc too.. come on ppl be happy if that gb even moves with that time/medi-scape s**t...

Are you crazy? It will deliver 1440x900 resolution, 1080p recording at 60fps, 8mp cap lifted to 16.1mp, fps cap lifted to 58fps including 3D with some accents of time/mediapain.
Well, this was originally posted in brazilian Sony Ericsson official Blog, so I think we could give it a shot. A lot of people said X10 wouldn't support even dual touch, and now we have it. Maybe Sony Ericsson found a way to fix it, despite the hardware limitation, bypassing, I don't know. If SE said multitouch will come with the 2.3 update, I guess I will wait hopefully for that.
The source is in portuguese and I'm too lazy to translate it now, but you guys can believe what I'm saying or use a translator .
2.3 also brings: Full HD screen resolution, native .exe execution, CoD Black Ops pre-installed, slide out joypad like on Xperia Play, and Airplane mode finally turns phone into airplane of your choice, just like we all expected when seen it for the first time...
Also, don't forget about kexec exploit fix == stuck on SE's FW... But with all these functions, why would you want to switch to another ROM??? Enjoy
lol hahaha... iam so excited about the new GB update coming soon...
Read somewhere that the official.update will be released.at the end of July.

Nope. He hacked the CPU power to route it through a Galaxy S2
Pshhh dual core is sooo the day before, talk to me when you have 8 cores implemented
You need Galaxy S II, then with simple CPU reroute process via Wi-Fi, BT, J-Tag, USB and a few more solder points you connect X10 to Galaxy's CPU.
Then you take super glue, and stick the phones together. zdzihu will publish the pictures soon
It was easy, and during the process RSA key was found - it was a nice surprise to find all root, red and brown keys under the CPU on a piece of paper, hand-written with signature of SE's CEO

I'd say that chances of ICS coming to our X8's are slim to none. Don't get me wrong, I'd want ICS on my phone more than anything, but hear me out. Recently, Zdzihu managed to port ICS for the X10i. According to him,
[WORKING]
- it boots
- radio, calls, txt (sms)
- audio partially working (in-call is fine, playing mp3/ringtones leads to WLOD)
- bluetooth, GPS seem to work
- wifi almost working (“can’t find wlan0 device”)
- mobile data (it gets IP but disconects afterwards, needs investiagtion)
[NOT WORKING]
- most of the stuff does not work
- quite unstable
This is the X10 we're talking about. If it isn't even perfected or completed on the far (hardware) superior X10, how can we even hope for it to be usable on X8. But hey, who am I to talk, i ain't even a dev. I'm just a fat lazy 14 year old on his X8. I mean, they said the X8 and X10 couldn't handle Gingerbread (initially) but look how far the x8 and x10 dev's have come

You can't have this on the X8 because of the following reasons:

Just that x8 has hardware limits.. It's very difficult for me to try explain it in english..
Look. Try to port windows 7 on a 800mhz with 256mb ram.. It will be extremely difficult.. I think it's a little the same.
Course he's doing great job.. I tested it and it's running well.. but I'm perplexed that we can run ICS with all of his fonctionnality on our x8.
But I hope I'm wrong
