Performance in Android 3.0 and beyond

I have some concerns on performance for any version of android 3.0 and above. Dragging a movieclip is choppy. Pinch and zoom is terrible (disabled on tablets in favor of +- zoom controls). Rotation is very choppy as well.
I thought this was limited to large screens and since my focus was small screens and performance on small screens was smooth, it wasn't an issue. Gingerbread works like butter for my app. However, I have recently tried my app on small screen Android 4.0 and it has the same issues as 3.0 on tablets so I am starting to think it isn't just screen size but an issue with changes in the OS. I realize ICS just came out but since AIR 3 is suppose to target Android 3.0 API's and the same issue exists, it leads me to believe that ICS phone users will suffer the same problem. I think if I can figure it out for supported Android 3.0, it will also solve the 4.0 problem before the masses adopt ICS.
Anyone else have issues on honeycomb with performance?

Thanks. I do have the stage quality at medium but not much difference. I did export some of my vectors as bitmaps (using Flash Pro) and that made a pretty big improvement on the sluggish areas. I also turned on GPU acceleration which also helped. I would say those changes helped bring it up to an acceptable level. I did not notice any difference in colorDepth.
I have a couple related questions. Bit of background, my app allows you to draw using your finger.
1) Are touch event better than mouse events for drawing? In some test apps (drawing only), touch seemed to work much smoother but when I layer in other graphics, not really a difference, when should I use mouse vs touch?
2) are there any better api's for drawing than Adobe graphcis?
Thanks

Is it possible to convert to an AIFF file in itunes 10 and beyond, and if so what is the procedure?

Hello. Is it possible to convert to an AIFF file in itunes 10 and beyond, and if so what is the procedure?
I use FCP7 and often have a sound loop or the like that I need in AIFF format, I normally use itunes to do the conversion, but have heard that version 10 no longer performs this task...?
Thx for the help!

It still works the same as in past releases. Go to Edit > Preferences > Import Settings, and set "Import Using" to "AIFF Encoder," and then the option will be available. Consult this document for details:

Hi James,
Could you give me a call, I am at my desk.
I had meetings all day and couldn't respond to your calls earlier.

Subject: Re: Case 59063: performance issues w/ C TLIB and Forte 3M
Hello,
I just want to reiterate that we are very committed to working on
this issue, and that our goal is to find out the root of the problem. But
first I'd like to narrow down the avenues by process of elimination.
Open Cursor is something that is commonly used in today's RDBMS. I
know that you must test your query in ISQL using some kind of execute
immediate, but Sybase should be able to handle an open cursor. I was
wondering if your Sybase expert commented on the fact that the server is
not responding to commonly used command like 'open cursor'. According to
our developer, we are merely following the API from Sybase, and open cursor
is not something that particularly slows down a query for several minutes
(except maybe the very first time). The logs show that Forte is waiting for
a status from the DB server. Actually, using prepared statements and open
cursor ends up being more efficient in the long run.
Some questions:
1) Have you tried to do a prepared statement with open cursor in your ISQL
session? If so, did it have the same slowness?
2) How big is the table you are querying? How many rows are there? How many
are returned?
3) When there is a hang in Forte, is there disk-spinning or CPU usage in
the database server side? On the Forte side? Absolutely no activity at all?
We actually have a Sybase set-up here, and if you wish, we could test out
your database and Forte PEX here. Since your queries seems to be running
off of only one table, this might be the best option, as we could look at
everything here, in house. To do this:
a) BCP out the data into a flat file. (character format to make it portable)
b) we need a script to create the table and indexes.
c) the Forte PEX file of the app to test this out.
d) the SQL staement that you issue in ISQL for comparison.
If the situation warrants, we can give a concrete example of
possible errors/bugs to a developer. Dial-in is still an option, but to be
able to look at the TOOL code, database setup, etc. without the limitations
of dial-up may be faster and more efficient. Please let me know if you can
provide this, as well as the answers to the above questions, or if you have
any questions.
Regards,

w/ CTLIB and Forte 3M
We did that trick already.
When it is hanging, I can see what is doing.
It is doing OPEN CURSOR. But not clear the exact statement of the cursor
it is trying to open.
When we run the query directly to Sybase, not using Forte, it is clearly
not opening any cursor.
And running it directly to Sybase many times, the response is always
consistently fast.
It is just when the query runs from Forte to Sybase, it opens a cursor.
But again, in the Forte code, Alex is not using any cursor.
In trying to capture the query,we even tried to audit any statementcoming
to Sybase. Same thing, just open cursor. No cursor declaration anywhere.==============================================

How to improve the query performance in to report level and designer level

How to improve the query performance in to report level and designer level......?
Plz let me know the detail view......

first its all based on the design of the database, universe and the report.
at the universe Level, you have to check your Contexts very well to get the optimal performance of the universe and also your joins, keep your joins with key fields, will give you the best performance.
at the report level, try to make the reports dynamic as much as you can, (Parameters) and so on.
and when you create a paremeter try to get it match with the key fields in the database.
good luck

GR/IR Clearing When to perform F.13/F.19 and MR11

Dear,
Can you pls explain GR/IR Clearing and its grouping, whats the process for GR/IR
adjustments done?
What is Grouping and Regroping?
When to perform F.13/F.19 and MR11?
I have read the threads discussed here on this topic, still I do not understand.
Thanks All
Krishna

Hi
When we execute SAP124 (F.13) with the flag "only documents which can be cleared" it will display in detailed list only those documents that can be cleared.
If dont check this field it will generate a list even of documents that cannot be cleared.
In this case in OB74 you have given ASSIGNMENT and INVOICE REFERENCE as the criteria.
But what is probably happening is that the ASSIGNMENT is not matching in these documents and thus the system does not find
the item suitable or rather eligible for clearing.
If you check the documentation relative to the "Special processing of GR/IR clearing accounts" in SE38 -> SAPF124, you will find the following information:
"If you set the GR/IR accounts special processing indicator: The program then automatically uses the EBELN and EBELP fields as well a as the XREF3 reference field as grouping criteria.
This means that documents with the most recent posting date are initially ignored."
So the system is checking these three fields for grouping the documents.
For clearing GR/IR account it is not obligatory to set indicator GR/IR Account Special Processing. As described in note 546410 it can be more effective not use this indicator.
Also read note 546410 and 574482 thoroughly.

How can I transfer Android ringtones, alerts and messages to my iPhone 5c?

I just got a new iPhone 5c and I want to be able to use my Android ringtones, messages and alerts on it. How do I transfer them in iTunes? It did transfer the ones that are actually music but not the others, the main ones I use.
Also is there an app that will announce who is actually calling you, by name? or sending a message? Like "new message from Chelsea"? "Call from Zac"? I got used to hearing these that I am missing it on the new phone.
I do have an iPad mini so I'm not an extreme newbie but I never had my messages come through on it.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp. works fine on other pc. performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp. works fine on other pc. performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

I have a similar issue - my iPod nano connects and is visible in Device Manager yet invisible in My Computer and iTunes. I've tried everything I can possibly think of to try and solve this myself, all in vain.
Mine is a nano 4G. I've been using it for quite some time without the slightest problem. I have been using WINAMP instead of iTunes to manage my darling nano.
Then, one fine day I bought a new computer and the nano would not show up in My Computer, though the nano display shows "Do not disconnect". On my old computer it worked (and still works) absolutely fine with win XP as well as with win7 (the later I currently use on my new/problematic computer, which I bought last summer and that's how long I've had this problem).
Of course, after several first attempts I gave up and installed iTunes. I've tried using the Apple support article "iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows":
- reset
- fully charged,
- cable works fine on two other computers
- in normal or disk mode makes no difference
- tried to find anything useful in the diagnostics mode
- reinstalled iTunes several different times since then to the latest version
- I've unplugged every other USB device except for my mouse and keyboard and tried several different USB ports on my motherboard (USB 3.0 and conventional), as well as trying different USB- related options in my BIOS.
- I've never used any Mac with this ipod
- I've tried fiddling with the win7 Services by stopping and restarting them and of course
- uninstalling the iPod drivers in Device Manager. After such an uninstall the ipod would automatically be recognised and "ready for use", i.e. being invisible in My Computer.
- Attempted to find any possible third-party conflict with msconfig or the possibility that my ipod is being confused for a network drive (for which I've disconnected my HDD, leaving only my SSD with the OS).
Sometimes, iTunes would note that iPod service (or something, can't remember exactly) failed to install properly and asked to try and repair it. I would click YES! and voila - no change! The ipod would rarely show up in iTunes on my problematic computer like this:
iTunes would warn me that the nano would need restoring so I would try and do it on my haunted machine upon which iTunes would freeze like you seen in the picture.
Despite this, I've updated and restored the nano on my father's computer to the latest version without any problems. This though, did not solve my problem in any way.
I can load music to my nano through my old computer (which for me is a real pain and hassle) and the gadget works normally in terms of its disconnected functionality.
I've taken my nano to the local service for repair and they said it was fine. Mercifully, they didn't charge for the diagnostics service (gee, thanks for not ripping me off!).
Here are two screengrabs from my Device Manager
and Devices and Printers screens on my comp:
That is my sad story as far as I can remember. It's most likely something with the drivers or something along those lines though I'm out of ideas at this point.
If you think you have any idea PLEASR HELP, I'M DESPERATE!

Windows 8 reset failed, my laptop seems to work but the performance isn't the same and refresh/reset isn't possible anymore

My problem started when I found a trojan (win32/skeeyah.B!plock) in my computer. Both Windows Defender and Malwarebytes detected it and claimed to remove it, but to be sure it was gone (I read online that it's hard to get rid of that one) I decided to perform a reset. I chose the deep reset option, it took about 5 hours to reach 92%, and then I got a message that the reset had failed. It gave me some options, and I chose to repair windows so I could keep using my machine. I had to set it all up again, like windows was really installed again. It seems to be working fine but it's a bit sluggish, and it bothers me that the reset failure might have left some broken files.
After testing it for a while, my only problem other than sluggishness was that I couldn't install google chrome ("Clickonce_bootstrap.exe - system error" was the message I got when the installation failed) but it bothered me enough to want to perform a refresh, to fix anything that might have been left broken. When I tried to do this, I got a message asking me if I trusted the source of the files that were attempting to perform changes on my computer, and listed my own hard drive as the source. I chose to trust it, and then I got a message telling me that the files needed to perform the refresh weren't in my computer, so I was prompted to insert the install disks. They didn't come with my laptop (Dell Inspiron), but I saved the installation files into a usb stick before doing the reset (Using Dell Recovery and Back Up), so I inserted the usb, and it told me that these weren't the right files. After that, my only option was "Cancel". Same thing happened for both refresh and reset.
Like I said, the computer seems to be functional, but I'm afraid the system might be unstable and crash on me randomly. Is there anything I can do?

Do not reinstall Windows 8, it is obsolete. Instead make installation media for Windows 8.1 with Update 1:
http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/download-microsoft-windows-and-office/download-microsoft-windows/download-windows-8-1-retail-and-oem-iso/
The only problem is selecting the correct edition likely Windows 8.1 or Windows 8.1 Single Language.
Use DISKPART → CLEAN ALL:
http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/cleaning-up-a-drive-format-vs-secure-wipe-ssd-and-hdd/
Then install Windows 8.1 with update 1 directly:
http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/a-clean-install-of-windows/a-clean-install-of-windows-8-1/windows-8-1-installation/
You can install with a local account, then install the system drivers in the correct order:
http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/downloading-drivers-checking-hardware-ids-and-downloading-and-installing-dell-system-drivers-in-the-correct-order/driver-installation/
If you need help identifying variants provide hardware IDs:
http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/downloading-drivers-checking-hardware-ids-and-downloading-and-installing-dell-system-drivers-in-the-correct-order/checking-hardware-ids-in-the-device-manager/
After installation of the drivers you may then install Dell Backup and Recovery the latest version is here:
http://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER02909509M/1/Backup-and-Recovery_Application_64M9D_WN32_1.8.1.71_A00.EXE
This will create a new recovery partition on your system that is Windows 8.1 with Update 1. You may then switch for a Microsoft Account.

OS X 10.5.3 (and beyond) Increases CPU Power Draw?

Hi all
I've got another ongoing thread (2006 Mac Pro Elevated CPU Temps) where I've been attempting to determine why my 2006 Mac Pro was running so much warmer than I recall at time of purchase...
By sheer luck, I seem to have stumbled on the cause... when I first noticed it, I was running 10.5.7 with the CPUs idling around 130F or so... as noted in that thread, I tried all sorts of things such as cleaning the dust out, reapplying the thermal paste, etc... all of which had no impact... for an unrelated issue, I decided to re-install OS X 10.5 base version and I was shocked to discover my CPU temps back down in the mid-90s F or so...
I happened to have taken some screenshots of Hardware Monitor and was able to compare them against the current readings... under OS X 10.5 -> 10.5.2, each CPU draws ~10W @ idle; under 10.5.3 and beyond, the CPU draw increases to ~30W @ idle. Naturally, this extreme increase results in the aforementioned temperature increase... I'm not sure as to the cause but my immediate suspicion is that some low-power CPU mode is disabled in the later revisions...
I've spoken to Apple about this and they're looking into it but in the mean time, I was wondering if anyone has any input on this?
-Justin

Interesting since Apple stated that they observed similar results on their test machine...
I'll have to try stripping the machine down to the original components and seeing if it has an impact... although, I think I've done this already when I was exploring why the CPU temps were so high...
When you say

Probably it is your system and something in the way it is configured... everything from power source coming in, any UPS or surge or line conditioner, to the PSU, and then to video and other components...

Thanks again!

Bug: when you have two or more reminder pop-ups on BB10, you can't edit 2 or more of them because the second and beyond are lost...

I notice that when you have two or more reminder pop-ups on BB10 (tasks, calendar, etc.), you can't edit 2 or more of these because the second and beyond get lost and will never pop-up again.

Hey JVanB,
Thank you for your feedback.
To better understand your issue, for example If you have two reminders and select 'View Event Details' on the 1st reminder, does the 2st reminder popup before the Details of the1st reminder displays?
Thanks.

Iphone 4s calender one day off last week in October and beyond

My iphone 4s for the last week in October and beyond is one day off(ahead of schedule) after syncing with outlook?

There are many factors that affect battery life such as a new iPhone being used more often than may be normal otherwise - the more the screen is on, more battery will be used and the brighter the screen setting even more when on, cellular reception at the time even without placing or receiving calls and the same for internet access via your carrier's cellular network, how often an email account or accounts are being automatically checked for new email, having bluetooth enabled when not being used to name a few.

Device Mapper and -fallback.img - stock, ck and beyond

Hi!
I have similar findings to superstoned, see at the end of
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=27696
device mapper module is not the part of the kernel26*-fallback.img. I understand the fallback images as the ones that contain all modules and if we get into trouble by generating our own cpio image we can point GRUB/LILO to them and be able to fix the problems.
Unfortunatelly the device mapper is not included in them (I checked the stock, ck and beyond kernels) which can cause problems if somebody installs the "/" on LVM managed disks.
Would it make sense to include them in the "fallback" image?
Besides of that I created a custom cpio image that includes the dm_mod.k by putting it into mkinitcpio.conf
MODULES="sata_nv sd_mod reiserfs dm_mod"
funny thing is it is working fine for the beyond and ck kernels but the stock one is not loading it although it is there - in the img file. Weird.
Any comments?
waldek

I checked again - custom img file works for all 3 kernels. My mistake - sorry.

I realized that I bought this iPod T4 about a year ago, so decided to check the date and it is still under the 1 year ltd. warranty until 21 Dec. I contacted Apple via Chat and was informed that the problem may lie in the version of iTunes I was running 10.7. Today Apple released v. 11 of iTunes which I was instructed to download. It's TOTALLY different from iTunes 10.7 - drastically different in fact.
The Apple Chat Rep set up a phone call appointment forl 8:00 pm ET tonight where another Rep will call me to make sure the restore was accomplished OK. With v. 11 of iTunes I can't even find the restore option!!! The phone Rep will have to help me navigate v. 11 of iTunes. It doesn't seem intuitive at all. Maybe it's just me?!?!
Thank you for sending this new link for firmware. It's not clear to me right now whether I'll need it or not. The phone Rep will probably somehow be able to resolve the problem. If not, they'll probably send me to the nearest Apple store if the problem is hardware, as it would be covered under the warranty. I will give another update as to what transpires as a result of the phone call with the Apple Rep.
Again, thank you so much for helping me.

I changed out my old cell phone for a Motorola zoom and now the zoom has my old phone number associated with it's sim card. I just purchased a Samsung Android cell phone and would like to trade the sim from my new to cell to the zoom so I can have my old cell phone number back. The problem is the sim cards are different sizes. Is this something I can take to a store and get switched out?

SRCLARK,
Great question! You can go to the store and get a replacement SIM card at the store. Any corporate store will be more than happy to help replacing your card. http://bit.ly/3SdsA
