Xperia Play: The Best Phone Ever

Seriously! I'am amazed by the quality of this phone. It's not because i bought it. It's because i compared it to other phone Like Galaxy S and G1 and of course my HD
The phone is fast and reactive. The application i installed are very stable and works without problems.
And the Games are actually high Level despite those made from PS1 that sucks because of the limitation of the catalog. (I wait for games from Square Soft titles)
I tried Neogeo emulation and played with the pad. I can tell for sure that any move or combo can be performed easilly. Precision is almost like the PS3 Pad and much more better than the PSP.
In fact i completly forgot my PSP since i got this phone. I don't use it anymore...
Last thing I tried was using the pad to control the mouse of my PC with Teamviewer and it worked ! You can move accurately the cursor with the direction and use the X button to click /Double click. Of course other actions could be performed via the screen.
Great potential for this year, I just hope that Sony will keep updating the device frequently.

Streaming H.264 Videos Help!!

Hello all,
I am a new owner of a Nexus 7 (16G-All stock) and so far so good...except for the blueprint lsat prep website:
Note: I'm sorry, I'm new and cannot post links yet. If you try to go on the blueprint lsat prep website, the homepage has a link to sample videos of the course.
The company claims that it is possible to watch on Android. I have tried to watch using Chrome without any success. Tried it on Iphone, and the video played.
Since I am quite happy with the Nexus 7, I'd hate to have to return it and exchange it for an Ipad.
Please, please help!

Have you tried a third party media player such as mxplayer, or dice player? There are a few on the play store.

I went in to try, and I guess this was what you meant? It seemed to work for me.

I have tried other browser and switched the user agent to iPad and it works, except that the video looked funky and there was no video control.
The sample videos are on blueprintprep dooot com slassh last_phone
Thank you for your help!

This looks like a YouTube embedded video, which works for me as well on Chrome.

remove current screen guard and put a 720p screen guard
simple

Simple Answer:
NO! How do you expect your hardware to change by a software. I mean Houuu???

Well... I know our phone is 240p but i really want to use it 320p ROM because it will seen much cooler... And i guess i think our hardware can handle it because gt-5830i (ace i) does

=========HOLO-UBUNTU========theme

it's a kernel and hardware thing,
you can't force a DPI resolution not unless your hardware supports it,
why must we force our device to the impossibles?

if the hardware and screen are capable of showing the original dpi only how do you expect it will show greater dots per inch ?

Opened, Unlock, Root, Rom... damn!

Within 10 minutes of receiving my N7 from Staples.com I had her rooted, unlocked and running Scotts CleanRom.
Few questions I need answers to.....
I read that MXplayer is not yet working on the N7. That is really the only APP I use on a regular basis. Really the only reason I use the tablet. (Movies on the train to work) What is an equivalent movie player to MXplayer that you guys would recommend?
I ordered my tablet from Staples.com when they were stupid enough to let a few people get away with he $30.00 off code. Upon usage over the past 30 min I noticed a severe light bleed dead center on the top of the screen. I read issues on the N10 ( i never had that issue on mine). I think I'm going to return it. For those who got it through Staples.com, did you have any issues bringing it back into the store for a return?
Anyone else just LOVE the fact that the idiots over at HBO fix the HBOGO app for 4.2.2 on the Nexus 10 just to have it not be compatible with 4.3? Just great strategy there. I'm sure it works JUST FINE on the IPAD
That's it for now. If I think of anything else I'll be back. Thanks in advance

I found BS Player to be a functional substitute for MX Player.

[My new APP] AirDraw - draw your text in the air by waving your phone !

Hey,
Just finished developing another app.
This time it's AirDraw.
What it actually does is flashes the letters of a word that you enter according to your phone location when you are waving it.
The outcome is like you are drawing in the air.
Its downloadable via Google Play for free (a little admob ad is inside, thats the reason it needs an internet access permission)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ValkA.airdraw
here is a slow shutter photo I shot while waving the phone (thats on LCD, which isn't that good for that purpose):
If you like it you are welcome to Like my facebook page.
ps.
notice that the app is at early stage, so any ideas are welcome !
LCD has slow response time, but AMOLED should be better.
I haven't tried that on AMOLED display so i'll be happy to hear about your experience, if possible some slow shutter photos are very welcome and will very help me to improving the algorithms.

Does it have to have full network access?

I know that issue, shouldn't be a problem to fix it in the next updates.
bleeeeeeek, it needs internet access only to show an AD (that is my motivation to keep developing free apps)
