Yea i went to dl from whatsapp website itself, but it seems like it doesn't support this tablet officially yet.

btw my selectapp has nothing in it, is it bugged or only me?
*
hopefully it will support sooner.

selectapp? what is it? *sorry again..*

QUOTE(exkaizen @ Feb 27 2012, 04:29 PM)
you can run it through software mode by click and hold the video file and choose select player. Then you can choose default player, hardware or software mode. Software mode won't use hardware acceleration. might play better /might play slower... depends on the codec used by the video.
*
i checked d, it sets as software player as default, so should i change it?

Try run as hardware...if not then software should be it... if not mistaken... only samsung tab/phone doesn't. Need codec n can play using stock player...

i only can choose either Stock Player or Software Player, but i cant play rmvb file by Stock Player, format not supported.

The Setup for my STS -

1. Screen Protector from Sony (Need to have this for peace of mind)
2. Black Leather Carrying Cover from Sony (Also need to have this for peace of mind)
3. Cradle (To reduced wear and tear of plugging and unplugging of charging cable form the charging port)
4. Extra charging cable from Sony (To be paired with the cradle, the other I use to carry it around with me)
5. 16Gb SDHC by Kingston and later upgraded to 32Gb.
6. OTG Cable
7. Wireless keyboard with touchpad by Rapoo (Non Bluetooth, saves device battery juice)
8. Wireless stereo headset by Rapoo (Non Bluetooth, good sound quality paired with STS players EQ)
9. For data on the go, I have my SE Xperia Ray with DiGi Unlimited data plan switched on to Wireless Hotspot.

*In the pipeline, thinking of getting a Rapoo wireless controller (Non Bluetooth) or a Logitech controller depending on the game that I have. I have GTA 3 (Free), read somewhere that it's compatible with external controller but have yet to try.
*
it got something stick on my sts, im thinking is it the 'very basic' screen protector from sony, or it is just a part of the screen? RM109 for screen protector, im thinking whether wanna buy or not, too expensive..

QUOTE(exkaizen @ Feb 29 2012, 05:37 AM)
if not mistaken stock palyer only allow xvid codec and .avi/.mp4 format only
*
so i only can choose to play by software player..

Screen capture requires root~ sweat.gif But there's another way to capture screenshot without root, but requires PC connection - using Android SDK DDMS.
*
is it just download Android SDK from Sony Android Developer? it needs the driver of sts, right? it seems like not available on any sony website yet.

You can refer to the following tutorial to install the Android SDK and ADB access:

Found one screenshot app that does not require root at Market, but it's paid version. Dunno whether it works or not on our STS:

If not mistaken its not screen protector.... it sort of like in ARC & ARC S... you have to go to service center if you want it to be replaced... Sony Center got sell the screen protector... but its expensive... I bought it as do not want my screen scratch and do not want to get 3rd party SP.

Problem with 3rd party SP... not available in market currently... the cutting size might a bit diffrent such as covered the camera or smaller...

Facts: users more toward samsung tab than Sony... thus accessories such as SP & casing will be hard to find in Malaysia... why don't get the original SP from Sony since you've bought a great device at an expensive price...  tongue.gif

u r right, i thought if it were the screen protector, i don need to spend extra cent. smile.gif

QUOTE(exkaizen @ Mar 2 2012, 08:21 PM)
I was offered pink slip case.... but asking for others... luckily they got red... using it now... and not thinking to get other case yet....

mine is blue color, and it is the only color for walk in customer,fortunately i still like the color.


btw, may i know how to use "custom" on application launcher? is it only can move to homescreen but cant move to new page/tab like ios? i like the homescreen of sony launcher, but too bad it cant sort by folder.. sad.gif

Well, I don't think you're going to get a 3rd party SP anytime soon. It'll be months and by the the time it gets here, your STS screen would probably have a few hairline scratches from daily use already... When I bought my STS, I went high and low looking for SPs. None were available. Told myself that no matter how expensive it's going to be I'm going to buy it because I hate seeing my beloved gadget get even the tiniest scratches on it. I was lucky enough, 2 days after I bought my STS, Sony Centre started selling SP and Carrying Cover. Bought both straight away. It was bloody expensive but at the end of the day I know that my STS is protected... Atleast from normal wear and tear...

Interested in getting the cradle? PM me...

when i bought my sts on last 2 sunday, the salesperson from harvey norman already asked me whether to buy the screen protector or not, it has already available. im thinking, since all it have promotion at ipc, don know i can get the cheaper sp or not? always try my best to protect the screen, very tired. biggrin.gif
