What my Xoom can do that I pad will never do!

Just watched a live stream from Fox news from a pirate site, now you might not like Fox, but this will be true for every pirate stream on the net. Take that fan boys!

yea! Now we can get fed the same line of BS everywhere
On the technical side, how is this significant or development-section worthy?
Edit: I am smart, this isn't the dev forum. Still don't know why this is a big deal

I watched the Dallas Stars game earlier on mine... Until I switched to my TV anyways.

Without flash, most of the pirate streams on the net will be unavailable to Ipad users, you can watch flash video without flash through a browser conversion like skyfire, but not streaming content.

Ah, OK. Flash. The beta implementation is pretty good. Hopefully the version released on the 18th will exercise the tegra with optimized hardware acceleration.
Watching the video review on engadget of a guy watching a video on engadget made my head hurt this morning
Let me preface this with a statement; i'm no fan of apple. However Jobs and his goons have a valid point in regards to flash. Its big, buggy, proprietary, power hungry and just generally a piece of crap on all platforms including the PC.
From a development standpoint, it can be tedious. I would choose silverlight over flash any day.
From a video standpoint, I hope HTML 5 takes over.
Problem is that flash is everywhere on the net right now. It is hard to do daily browsing without it.
Where apple dorked things up is not allowing the normal technlogy darwinism to take place. Flash will fade like divix and real media did when flash took over. The difference in apples case is that nothing is available to replace it (yet).
Apple effectively rejected the technology without giving people an alternative and I hope it affects their market share.
Allowing people to select what works best is why the internet ecosystem works and evolves. Not allowing choice is nothing more than simple asshattery on apples part.

I watched soccer on atdhe with my new iPad using iswifter so you're mistaken...

I watched first run movies, abc tv, Netflix, hulu etc. On my ipad2 and none of it was pirated.

This is a xoom forum, go away. iSwifter is NOT flash on the ipad...it is a server based decoder..nothing you watch is actually coming from a flash player on your device.

Oh ya, imagine that, another apple fan boy posting on yet another ANDROID, board, yet again denegating flash because the Ipad dosen't have nor ever will, but wait HTML 5 is coming and then you ANDROID geeks will see, f√¢k man, do you have nothing better to do with your life than screw with Android boards?

I actually like that, wish I had it on the Android market place along with the new I pad only Rupert Murdoch web paper. I appreciate your comment, I just hope that eventually it will be a part of the Android market place, until then I will just have to live with the free pirate feed.
I am slightly envious of that though.

Well that is the "Seriously?" face. Pretty sure he is commenting on how ridiculous it is that the Xoom is bested by a year old iPad and demolished by the iPad2 in that test. That said, the linked image is a synthetic benchmark test and is not representative of any real world performance really. The Xoom is faster than the iPad for real world gaming, but is trounced by the iPad2.

Poor Sound NOT A MYTH, and never was..

I'm here COUNTER some else ignorant post, that's right! IGNORANT
Poster had NERVE, to say that very problem i had, claiming it was myth. When people like myself and others had sound issues.
If people are posting sound related issues, its because there actually have it,
HOW DARE YOU call it myth when even you don't own my phone or other peoples phone.
Many people here has many issues with there phone (sound,screen,battery etc) if there posting that have an issue, clearly means that INDEED they do have an issue and its NOT A MYTH.
There was NOTHING wrong with my Samsung headphone that came with my phone, or any other earphones (which you call cheap), they clearly worked perfect in other devices, but users like me, knew that it was a SOFTWARE ISSUE (which SOME people had, NOT EVERYONE), some people had DIFFERENT sound issues. The sound issue was finally fixed for me by UPDATING to KI3 firmware since having this phone from the very beginning, since April. Updating to KI3 can't guarantee it will fix everyone sound problem, since every phone is different.
Some advice to you; give a righteous opinion rather than biased, selfish view of seeing things.

Ok man...I hear ya!
But why would you start a completely new thread to COUNTER another thread / OP's opinion?
Why not just post your counter opinion there?

C'mon.. first of all, if you have an opinion on his opinion, just reply to his thread! No point of creating a brand new thread just to give your opinion on his opinion. Second of all, especially with a problem on sound, each person have different level of what is "good sound" and "poor sound". His opinion is that it's alright and sounds good to him. For you, it's the opposite. Maybe you have high expectations? Who knows.. or maybe he have low expectations.
And what makes your post not ignorant?

True every phone is different but only marginally... The problem is i read these forums and see the most ocd kids who just need to relax and live there life instead of worrying about a coloring issue which is only seen under dark lights.
Or possibly a screen which they swear is not sitting even, just get over it its a phone it still does everything you originally wanted it for, dont make your phone your life >_<
I guess what im saying is yes some of these issues due exist but they are so small and none important yet people still post comments about how its unacceptable which although is a matter of opinion i still think im right and you people just need to stop obsessing over nothing.

THREAD CONTENT
My motive
My goals
Introduction child-boards
Child boards under my recommendation
My Motive
However XDA is a wonderful community there is still some room for improvement. XDA is great, as so are 'most' of the people around here, but however it's greatness there is still
one thing that does sometimes annoy me, is its organisation..
Let's be honest some people don't know where they should start their thread of where to find stuff, on the other hand most people who do have those problems are mostly plain stupid or are to lazy to search.
Yet I believe, that a little re-organisation will be able to address this matter and makes our lives, as the lives of users, mods or developers a little easier.
Lucky for you guys, I am not the guy that just complains, without constructing or achieving a potential solution.
I already put some hard work in it and I am fully prepared to do even more if necessarily , but before you judge me, please read and see see what I had in mind.
My Goals
Optimizing your User Experience
Creating new Levels of User Potential
Simplifying current structures and its organisations
Smoother, Faster, Clearer and Better
Introducing child-boards
I know it looks plain simple and you can believe I barely made any changes. BUT THAT IS THE KEY! That is my GOAL, keeping things as slim as possible. Still a child board can achieve an immense difference just only in your experience.
Imagine this simple user interface: Where you'll be able find to find a sub-board with ONLY ROM Releases or just everything related to it, so as for kernels.
Still I am perfectly aware that the ANDROID development goes beyond, ROM's and Kernels, YET these 2 elements in my opinion the main reason why people go to XDA, or they create kernels and ROM's or they want to flash them.
~~~ Organisational Problems ~~~​
No offense but isn't this a little weird, that so many people voted, where they'd best place their own thread?
Or is still someone able to tell, where I should fit this topic? ​
Child boards under my recommendation:
Separated Product Model Boards:
Even though people might find it lame, just know flashing the wrong firmware onto your phone, can brick your device,
accidents easily occur and even I noticed I accidently clicked onto the G development without even noticing it after 5 min and however the difference might look minor to some of you.
Why would you put 2 devices in the same area, knowing they require different systems, firmware and work on different hardware, meaning even though they are in the same range, THEY STILL DEFER
General Talk:
News​This community has a lot of potential users, that are motivated and willing to uncover the latest and hottest news for their phone or their device and I am fully aware that we do have XDA Tv.
But still I strongly believe this could be a very very useful sub-forum. Moderators or Forum Staff can sticky their posts to announce new rules or competitions
and only selected members will be able to post news concerning their galaxy s2 or their device, to decrease chances of any spam topics.
So why would we miss out on this potential, why wouldn't we publish a story that for example, AGPS, allows you to get a faster GPS lock or people invented a new script to conserve 50% more battery than usual,
does it really harm anyone, that one story wouldn't be that interesting, as this place could offer you, a pool of different stories that might catch your interest.
Nobody is forced to publish something, neither are you to read, you'll only have the Galaxy S2 knowledge library right at your disposal.
Android Developent:
Seperated ROM & Kernel Board​Wouldn't it be way easier to find all your ROM releases in one place and ONLY them?
Would we even need updated indexes anymore, when this would all be clear and accessible in one single location,
would we even be bothered to posts polls as where should I put this thread as you might have already seen above?
Wouldn't this make your user experience more simpler finding in two clicks whatever you'd like?
I'd certainly vow for this!
ROM & Kernels Separated, everything else, in the android development thread (Applications, scripts, Tweaks, ...

Nice find! Here's some other footage I found on it.

I've had my eye on these for a couple of weeks now. I have an iPhone 4, and I must say, for gaming it sucks. I also had a Novo 7 Elf and that was OKAY. But these JXD gamepads are really awesome looking. So I've decided I'm going to get myself one. Payday is in about 3 days, not including shipping time...

For as many threads of these JXD devices as we see, it's a shame there aren't as many reviews out there. They look really interesting, but I just don't know if I'd trust the manufacturing quality.

Thank you for correcting me.... the video I linked was pulled from another site claiming it was the correct model, but you are correct. The model I listed does have shoulder buttons

I'm really interested in this. I'm just waiting til I top up my debit card again.
One question though: Most articles I've read say it's available for pre-order at $150 but all said articles point to WillGo which prices the device at $160+ excluding SD card. Why is that? $10+ dollars is something big.

$150 was the special pre-order price. You can still find it for $150 at other stores, but if you can afford it I'd go with the Willgoo link because they're quick to ship and offer very good after sales support.

got to get one of these, for that price anyway, shame there is no white in stock !

I received mine a couple of days ago. My honest impression of it so far is that it's an incredible piece of hardware trapped by ridiculously poor firmware coding. This thing has so much potential, but the mistakes that JXD made with the code are mind boggling. For example, the left analog and d-pad are distinct pieces of hardware, but they cannot be mapped independent of one another, and the right analog is mapped through the touch screen. And it appears that the display might be locked at 50Hz.
It would seriously benefit from the aid of some of xda CFW gurus, but the problem with that is, so far, JXD won't release the source code. A pair of users have actually made a good bit of progress improving things, tremendously so given that they're no experts and they don't have any source code to work with, over at http://boards.dingoonity.org/android-devices/jxd-s7300-fixes-firmware-roms-thread/ but it still needs more help. I would encourage anyone with the skills, time, and inclination to head over there and try to lend a hand. If people are successful in correcting JXD's mistakes, this tablet could actually be worth the price.

There is a recent review in Euro Gamer,
tinyurl.com/afw44rf
I'm definitely thinking about getting one of these..... but I have too many gadgets... ARG...
EDIT: I can't post links, so i trimmed the uri with tinyurl and posted

I bought this and I can't wait to try it out, and yes, I really do hope someone with skills desides to pick this up because it's always nice to have the support!

So, how's it been working for you? Just saw this last night and have been googling around for more info. I have a Nook Color right now that I use for reading, how well does this do on non-game related apps? I want to get something I can play games on and emulate with but I also don't want to have to carry two devices around all time so I'm hoping to be able to use this as my eBook reader, Web browser and media player too...
Also have you (or anyone else) tried using a microSD card larger than the listed 16GB?what were your results?

I received mine yesterday. The build quality is very pleasing for the price (£98 for me) although some have mentioned problems with soldering etc internally.
There are problems with the analog sticks but they look to be resolvable. On the Dingoonity boards a couple of developers have released a very good rom that fixes a lot of the typical problems with cheap chinese tablets such as bloatware, slowdown etc.
The main problem seems to be the screen running in 50hz mode which causes stuttering in some emulators. I have played using FPSE, Mupen64, Dead Trigger, NOVA3 and they all run really well, even though the mali drivers are apparently rather out of date.
I use a 32GB SD Card and all seems fine. It's just formatted to FAT.
I have high hopes for this having owned and been thoroughly disappointed with an Archos Gamepad.

I'm interested in buying one of these they have a lot of potential. But the tablet seems too pricey for me. Have any of you guys seen the JXD S3500 or Yinlips YGP13?

To be honest it looks rather interesting, especially at that price. But after my parents once bought a chinese "iphone-like" tablet with some ancient software on it and i tried to update it, i am rather sceptikal about android products from china.
Still more interested into than a wiiu though.

Enough with the negativity on this phone

I am sick and tired of reading negative comments/pages on this phone. I do not own this phone as of yet but I know for a fact this isn't a piece of junk. It is the best smartphone HTC has put out as of yet and its hands down argubally one of the best smartphone out now. Can we please share what the positives are about this phone ?? What we LIKE and LOVE. I want to read about what makes this phone the ONE rather then scaring people off with the negativity, especially the ones who are hesitant on buy this phone.

Its not 'junk', but its probably the most flawed phone ive ever had. I still like it though.

The only reason why these forums are so negative is because not everyone is going to write about the positives because they have nothing to gain. When people write about negatives, they are searching for answers or advice if that makes sense. There is only a small herd that is bashing the phone but the only reason why it seems everyone is doing it is because they are the most vocal

Ok well it has a great screen, its unbelievably sharp. I personally could see the pixels on a Retina, or SAMOLED screen at about 300DPI, but i really cannot seem them on this screen. You do not see aliasing on any angles at all, ever.
The TV remote function is great, it works, from a distance, which i didnt think it would. The TV app is pretty good to.
The sound output is very nice. Typical Beats (a bit of muddy bass), but if you like that, its really nice. The bundled headphones seem to be Beats headphones in a cheaper housing. Its LOUD, both from the stereo speakers and the headphones, something very few phones are.
It seems to playback almost any type of file at any bit-rate, as long as you use a third party app. My S3 wouldnt play a lot of the stuff ive tried on the One.
Build quality issues aside, it is solidly made. It feels like a sold piece of metal. No flex, no creaks, nothing.
The camera is very good at focusing and great in low light. Dont worry to much about it being 4MP unless you tend to zoom in or crop images a lot.
Its a bit early to comment on speed. It feels slow compared to the S3 at doing most things, but its on early firmware, its not fair to compare to a well developed year old unit. I remember being underwhelmed by the S3 at first.

Expect it lol! SGS4 is coming samsung is probably spending a fortune for thousands of users to bash the HTC One all over the internet.
Even youtube got owned by samsung.. Imagine I searched the word HTC One in the search bar then I get a Galaxy 4 promo video on the top of the search results lol! So much for accurate results eh?

Every new phone has issues. The s4 will have plenty. This is where you write about the issues

The ads come based on your search history. Maybe you've been reading about S4 a bit lately. I do not get that ad on my screen

I'm also sick of Samsung ans apple trolls ranting on about how bad the one is. The phone is great and I won't let them spoil it for me

Same here, I got this phone because it's the one I wanted, for me it's head and shoulders above anything that's out, and I'd most definitely choose it over the s4, why because it's what I wanted in a phone and no amount of people bashing it will change my opinion of it. They just get ignored.

Nah, I haven't search Samsung's product in all my youtube usage history, and yet Samsung note 2 or S4 pops out when I looking for "New One" or "Padfone 2(which I own now)". Soooooo annoying.
But hey , I don't think all the blames are bad or what, some of them make sense. Well, some of them are just, hmm, random complaints from nowhere.

Nice try but nope
Why would I search s4? lol I'd rather get IPhone 4 than galaxy s4 since I am a design freak lol!

People bashing the Htc one are here for a reason. They are scared. They know its the best phone out there and a phone that will hurt Samsung .

There's two parts to it. The first part are people with issues that want the phone. These are the people that are within their right to be complaining. Then you have the people that are just here to bash the phone to try and justify their intended purchasing of the S4. Those people need to be banned.

Sorry guys, this thread has no place in a device forum.
