Edge and Wi-Fi

What is the main difference between Edge and Wi-Fi? I often have access to both. Which is better in terms of speed and any difference in battery use?

Hi, have a look at this link I found:
http://www.eetimes.com/encyclopedia/defineterm.jhtml?term=cellularvs.Wi-Fi
This might give you a little insight on the differences. As far as speed goes, you'll likely have much faster data rates with wi-fi. I'm not sure about battery performance, though.
HTH.

EDGE and HTML dynamic text in a "box" with scroll bar

I'm new to EDGE, a win7pro master collection cs5.5 suite owner. I'm mainly in the Film/Video post production field (mostly AE, PPro, Pshop, IA) but have been branching into web design the last couple of years. I use Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash. While I'm a expert user with all the Film/video apps, I would say I only have intermediate ability with the web apps. While I understand a lot of programing logic bulding blocks I'm not a coder.
So since we're told "flash is dead", my interest in Edge is to try to do some of the things that I can currently do in flash in EDGE. I was excited when Edge first came out but lost interest when it became obvious that Adobe was not going to offer Edge and Muse to "suite owners" but only in their force feeding of the "Cloud". Better known as the "golden goose" for adobe stockholders and a never ending perpetual hole in the pocket for users. Anyway....
I spent the last couple of days doing some of the tuts and messing with the UI. It's matured a lot since I was here last.
I've been working on a flash site for a sports team where one of the pages is a player profile page where college recuriters and other interested parties can view recuriting relavent info/stats about players. This is how it works. While on the "Team" page a users clicks on a button labled "Player Profiles" . (Animation) A "page" flies in and unfurls from the upper right corner (3d page flips effect created in AE played by flash as a frame SEQ). Once it lands filling most of the center of the screen there is a bright flash. As the brightness fades we see the "page" is a bordered box with a BG image of a ball field(End). (Animation) from behind the border in fly small pictures (player head shots with name and jersey number). They stream in and form a circle like a wagon train and the team logo zooms up from infinity to the center of the circle(End). As the user mouses over a player's pic it zooms up a little and gets brighter (like mouseover image nav thumbs for a image slider). If the user clicks on a player's head shot it flips over and scales up to become a text box with a scrollbar. The content of the box is a mix of images, static and dynamic text fields populated from data in an "player info data base" XML file, and some hyperlinks. It's all kept updated dynamicaly with current stats, info and images from the XML file. There is also a "PDF" button that allows the user to open/save/print a PDF of the player's profile (the PDF's are static files for now but the choice of which pdf to retrive is dynamicaly supplied via the XML file.
So.... Is Edge now able to do something like this? Would it need to be a collection of small animations? could these be "assembled" and connected as an asset in dreamweaver ?
I thought I would approach this from the end (ie click on an image and display a box with dynamic TEXT fileds. ) since that is the most important part, ie displaying the dynamicaly updated profile info. Sooooo....
Can Edge display a scrolling text box with Images, static text, and html dynamic text in it??

Verizon Edge and BYOD

Hopefully, a Verizon Wireless Customer Support rep can answer this question. I am currently on a family share plan, 2 smartphones (unlimited data) 2 feature phones. I would like to change to the More Everything/Verizon Edge plan with 10GB of data. I have 4 verizon smartphones, 2 from original contract, and 2 others. With just More Everything, it would be $160 for phones..$40/line. With Edge and 10 GB of data, it would be $60 for phone, $15/line after the $25/line discount. Same price at AT&T. So my questions are these; Can I bring my own devices to the Edge program, and get the per line data discount? Or, If I buy one Edge phone, can all the other phones on my plan enjoy the per line discount? and finally, Does the Edge discount continue after the phones have been paid off. Thank you for any assistance.

First, let's clear up a misunderatanding - EDGE is a payment plan for phones. If you are bringing all 4 phones then none of them will be on EDGE - that's only for a new device purchased with the EDGE payment plan.
MORE Everything will have a $40/line access for each of the smartphones. If they currently are out of contract (as they would be if you BYOD), and you have a 10GB or larger data bucket ($100) then you would receive a $25 line discount, effectively erasing the $100 data buck cost. Total for 4 smartphones and 10 GB shared data, $160.
With EDGE, the cost would be the same, but you would also have to factor in the cost of the phone (the payment plan that is EDGE). Bringing your own phone without a contract results in the same cost for now, the Month2Month discount, but that is available NOW and may not be in the future.
If I buy one Edge phone, can all the other phones on my plan enjoy the per line discount? Yes, as long as they are out of contract. And finally, Does the Edge discount continue after the phones have been paid off. It's available now as the month2month discount; whether that will still be available once they EDGE agreement is paid off, who knows?

Upgrading to Edge and keeping old phones...

I have 2 phones that are under contract and paid in full, 23 months of the 24 months right now. I'm interested in switching to EDGE, but I learned they want me to give them my phones that are far paid off. Currently, we've paid around 2200$ towards the 900$ in cell phones. I understand you pay more with subsidiaries blah blah. I wasn't asking for a waiver of the contract. I was asking to be allowed to pay off my last month in the contract today and sign up for EDGE and be able to keep the old phones. I assumed there's no way they would say no, I'm willing to pay 170$ immediately and switch to a plan where I pay 50$ more a month...what company would ever say no to this?? Verizon would.
This whole switch was stemmed from getting stopped by a rep from at&t that was giving money to buy out people's contracts with Verizon and they offered a similar plan for new phones. The trouble is, their service isn't as good in the area I live and so I looked into what Verizon was offering currently. I was excited when I noticed the same offerings over here and disappointed when striking out online and in a local store front. We were looking to switch to some water resistant phones before our family trip to the Pacific coastline.
Has anyone ever had any luck with customer support in a similar situation. Again, just looking to pay off my last month now and upgrade to new phones on EDGE without turning in my old phones.

Funny thing about that is people with less than 10 GB of data allowance are only paying $10/month of the line access fee towards "paying off their phone" while people with 10 GB or more of data allowance are paying $25/month of the line access fee towards "paying off their phone".
Verizon must like the people better who have a lower data allowance since a smaller portion of their line access fee is going towards "paying off their phone".
Unfortunately, some of the competitors have the same pricing schedule.

Edge and Next are good for the corporations but are they good for the consumer?

Ok so I have never paid full price upfront for a phone! Ever since my first phone from VoiceStream I have opted for what ever phone was "free" because way back then (I blush as I type) I actually thought the phone was "free!!!" Ah, to be naive again!! But as we all know the phones never were nor will they ever be free.
However I say programs like Verizon's Edge and AT&T's Next are good for the corporation if they weren't they would not exist. The first reason I say this is because Edge and Next allow the cellular service provider to easily recoup the entire cost of the phone in a clear way unlike with subsidized phones that muddy the profit water. For example, the Verizon 64GB iPhone 5s retails for $849.99, currently with a two year contract you pay $399.99 for that 64GB iPhone 5s. The EFT for that phone is $350 (minus $10 per month of post paid service). If you on the 15th the day after you got your phone you paid the EFT but kept service you only paid $749.99 for that $849.99. Sure you still pay for service but you can leave when ever and Verizon cannot say hey you owe us $100 more for you phone. Its yours and they can't take it back and the only way Verizon will get that $100 back is though another customer that subsidized a much lower cost phone that at the completion of that contract Verizon will more than recoup the cost of that lower priced unit. To top that off you could turn around and sell the phone for $800 go back to Verizon or another provider buy a $450 phone and break even. I'm not suggesting that people do that or that it may prove to be a big hassle for some that went through all the trouble. Its just a point to show that subsidized phones make the profits less clear for the service provider to see at first glance.
Second reason these programs are good for the corporation is they allow the service providers to get a better grasp on the true cost of maintaining their networks and providing us the consumer access to their networks. Third reason it good for the corporation is the people that feel the need to upgrade every six months to a year are required to pay at least 50% of the retail cost of the phone at the same time they must surrender that device in exchange for the new device. So the service provider then has the phone refurbished certified to be in "like new condition" and sell it again potentially making more than retail cost when the profits of both sales of the same handset are factored together.
That being said what will the impact of programs like Edge and Next have on cost of future cellular service plans and smartphones? Over time will the service provider give us the best per line access fee (not likely but maybe)? Or will people upgrading their smartphones at faster intervals cause the cost of the smartphones to drop over time? What are your thoughts?

If i turn off wifi my phone only goes to Edge and not 3g by default?!?!

I have a very wierd problem with iphone. mine isn't about 3g reception, as i get eprfect reception. the problem is if i turn on wifi and am connected to a network, once i tun off wifi or get out of wifi range, my phone will automatically revent to Edge, and not 3g. i have to go into network settings and disable, then re-enable 3g, and then 3g works perfectly. even if wifi option is on but im not connected to wifi, this works fine. but if and when i connect to a wifi network, suddenly my phone starts reverting back to edge when i either turn off wifi or move out of wifi range. i then have to disable and renable 3g for it to default back to 3g
whats the deal here!! this seems to be a glitch in the system. anybody else facing this problem?? im on 2.1 and i didn't have this problem with any of the previous 2.0.1 or 2.0.2 and was getting eprfect 3g every time.

I think reverting to Edge when in sleep mode is by design.
It make sense when you think about it. Why would you need 3G data speeds for a phone that is sleeping?
But it should pop back to 3G when you open the phone.
I have another thread where ACTIVE Edge transmission streams block switching to Wifi.
This sounds like all part of the same problem. It sounds like Apple reverted to the lowest power radio when in sleep mode, but has still not perfected the switching upon awakening.
If you wake your phone, but do NOT slide the Un-lock slider till you see 3G/wifi it seems to work better. However, it it doesn't work in 6 seconds, its not going to work at all in my experience.
Switching to 3G is so time consuming (not only MY time to initiate it but also the time it takes to actually wait out the "No Service" to get to a 3G icon) that I use very little 3G at all. I'd rather have a solid Edge reliability and
wifi than a flaky unpredictable and very limited coverage 3G. I think I wanted a iPhone V1.5 (half way between V1 and V2. Keep the 3G, its the source of a lot of headaches on this board).
In 3 years it might be different as 3G spreads, but right now 3G is not worth the trouble and expense given the plethora of free wifi.

Edge animation works in browser preview from edge and muse but not in chrome when published

I have an Edge animation that worked fine in Chrome, Safari and IE.
The last time I published my Muse site (To BC) again (since update to CC2014) it no longer worked in Chrome!
Preview in browser (Chrome) from edge works, preview in browser (Chrome) from Muse works, publish and it doesn't work in Chrome (but does in Safari and IE).
Have been trawling for possibilities but I'm not that web techy! Any help would be appreciated

I don't remember specifically what fixed it at all as I'd done all of the following:
Removed Muse and Edge and prefs
Updated Muse and Edge
trashed cache in Chrome
copied the contents of the Edge project / stage into a new project and saved as cc2014 version
re-published the whole site from Muse
After many attempts it started working again but I can't say that it was one thing in particular - sorry about that.

iPhone warranty is not international, but is valid only in
the country of original purchase. Since you bought the iPhone
in the UK, your warranty is valid anywhere in the EU but not
in Egypt. You can gry taking it to an Apple authorized reseller,
but don't be surprised if they tell you they cannot do anything.

Detecting edge and plateau of a step form signal (stair shape)

Hi,
I am having some problems in detecting the beginning of the edge and the beginning of plateau for each step. My data has a stair shape and I want to detect each step. Sometimes it has a lot of noise. Can you help me to detect the steps and filter the data?
(I attached XSL file with 2 different data (x1,x2))
Thanks,
Ana

I think I would start by calculating the slopes of segments of the array. The places where the slope drops down are the plateaus. Once you have the plateaus located you can refine the search for the inflection points by looking at second derivatives or intersections of straight line segments.
Another approach would be to look at the second derivative of the data. Using a Savitsky-Golay differentiator helps avoid some of the noise problems encountered with standard derivative functions.
Here is a VI saved back to version 8.6 which may give you some ideas and help you get started. I did not test it in the older versions. If something does not work, let me know.

Animated TOC in edge and DPS

I'd like to create a animated TOC in Edge and import in in indesign.
How can I link indesign pages/bookmark/article in Adobe Edge?
thanks
rob

Thanks, I know how to create animation in Edge and Import in Indesign. What I don't understand is how to use my animation as a menu / index / toc for idesign page.
I guess it involve some scripting that indesign can understand, like an anchor/link (on Edge) that goes to a page/article in Indesign.
Is it possible?

Interactive Edge and SAP insight paper on Category Management

Dear Business Process Experts,
This is the thread to discuss our joint Interactive Edge and SAP insight paper on Category Management in the Consumer Products industry.
In our paper and accompanying demo we examine the current challenges and recommend an approach to empower them to work more efficiently. Please have a look to the BPX site:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60e32cff-5b0f-2a10-f582-8e8bb3daef39
Tell us what you think. We are very interested to receive feedback and look forward for a lively discussion on this site.
Best regards,

Dear Thomas,
I have gone through your articleit is very interesting and eye opener for Retail industry.
For retailers, category management (CM) is the process of maximizing category profits through coordinated item assortment, promotion and pricing. It has been gaining popularity because retailers have come to realize that a better understanding of the interdependencies in consumer and manufacturer behavior among various brands in a category can increase the profitability of the category as a whole.1 CM is a significant departure from the traditional approach that considers brands independently, and has been adopted by an increasing
number of companies in the retail industry.
Therefore adopting a CM perspective could increase total profit. Yet, despite
the optimistic view, there is little consensus on how to implement CM in order to achieve its greatest profit potential. This is at least in part caused by a lack of analytical tools to support CM decisions, and calls for econometric methods that enable retail managers to implement CM.
<b>To cater and support this requirement, SAP IS Retail component should support following functionality;</b>
When we create a Article group using MC / Brand and use the article group in the pre-requisite of the Bonus buys, the bonus buys creates conditions at article level for all the articles in the article group. It also sends all articles in the Bonus buy Idoc WPDBBY. This functionality causes lot of performance issues while creating Bonus buys at SAP end, as well as at the POS end, since POS needs to go an check item by item. (Segment E1WPBB02). Therefore, SAP should come out new functionality for sending just the Merchandising category (MC) name or the brand name in the Bonus buy Idoc ( WPDBBY01) in the pre-requisite section instead of all the items within the MC or the brand.
Regards,
H.N.Muralidhara

Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
If this does not work, try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup, in case it contains corrupt data. How to back up your data and set up as a new device

Storm 2 switched between edge and EDGE network.

I have an unlocked Storm 2 on the Fido network, it is a Verizon phone.
It seems to switch between the EDGE and edge network. I have tried all the different settings in the mbile network preferences and it doesn't help.
Does anyone else have the same issue?

I think I got an answer for this question.
The version number displayed is the one that was written to Active Directory at the time the Edge subscription was created. Because EdgeSync is a one way process, the version number does not update as you update the Edge Transport server to newer versions.
If you want the version number to reflect the current value, recreate the Edge subscription
