[Q] What ever happened to DALVIK TURBO? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Don't know if anyone remembers, but this was supposed to speed up android up to 3X (3D and I/O like)
Was this replaced by JIT?!
http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/17/myriad-dalvik-turbo-hands-on-android-apps-just-got-fast/

I would think so, because that was android 2.1
JIT was in.. 2.2, right?

Yea though it shows 3D cube demo to be at a higher fps
I thought jit was going to be including this feature

I forgot all about that article. I was so excited when I read it on my pathetic motorola cliq.

No jit didnt replace it...that was a third party application (or rather framework) and it was supposed to be shopped around to OEMs. The fact that we haven't seen it yet must mean they didn't find any buyers.

Rockplayer not For slide?

So I tried this beta app out. Played every file possible, or at least tried to, and nothing! It seems to work for everyone else on diff handsets. Anyone else try this?
Redownloaded and installed a few times and nothing.

It may be that the developer has not yet updated the app to support the Mytouch Slide hardware...email the dev and ask the to add support for your device...

I thought about it but the app is a closed beta that got leaked and I'm 95% sure he only speaks chinese and uses translation tools.

i read it was based off processor, magic, dream, hero wont work as they dont support it.
seems to work for most of my movies, have several mpgs and avi files that it played decently, i have had a few problems with it lagging in audio or audio cutting in and out, and only one file refused to play at all(and by that i mean no sound and ~1fps while counter at bottome went as normally would)
I just downloaded it. I'm at work so I only have 2 .avi files to try out but they both worked great and when you move it to another point it starts almost instantly. Such a great app.

Skype Live and FM Radio for Samsung Captivate...

Sorry if this is posted under the wrong thread but I have seen other posts about porting apk's here so anyway here it goes:
I'm sure that by now today Skype has lifted its Verizon Android phone only limitions and is now extending them to ALL Android devices. The only problem is that an updated app is TBA. With that being said, I stumbled across this site earlier: http://www.chadhaney.com/droidXDefault/ which has all the apk's for the Droid X listed in alphabetical order. Needless to say I installed the Skype Live apk and it appeared to load but gave me a message stating that it was for Verizon phones only. Would it be possible for someone to port this to the Captivate, and since the FM Radio apk is there too, would that also be possible? Thanks in advance!!!

skype is on app market already.
FM radio i think captivate just missing out the chips that was used for it in i9000, and guess that's the same one for verizon's galaxy s.
I've been trying the Market version but it wont let me sign in...I've only had success with the beta which...sucks lol...

What's the likelyhood of getting the BT Voice commands APK/odex from the Droid X and applying them?
I wouldn't expect to see BT Voice control until the official FroYo release for our phone.

Depends on if it has any dependencies in Motorola specific frameworks or not.

Unable to play Asphalt 6 Adrenaline in captivate

Hi, I have a samsung captivate running in serendipity 6.3. I have downloaded asphalt 6 and also downloaded the extra download of 509 MB needed through my wifi. The game started with the initial graphic video and it automatically stops right there and comes back to my home screen once the start up video is completed. please help as i am a big fan of asphalt.
Well how did u download the game?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
I'm pretty sure that game isn't available for the Captivate. It's not in the market for me or anything. The only place I've seen it is the getgames.apk from the Xperia Play.
I'm assuming you just "found" the apk somewhere and tried to install it, and that it wasn't a market release.
Yeah if that b the case. You might need the data that comes with it. Along without the apk and downloading the wiring data aswell. But. If you did get it online its considered warezz.

i got it from 4shared.com. it did download the additional information after the game was installed
He got the additional DL, as stated in the OP. He's having issues running it, and... afaik.... it's not made to run on the Cappy.
Moved to proper forum.
I have it running and it runs slugish like it was runing in CPU mode and not hardware acellerated so you are not missing much.
Got it installed and running fine,not as smooth as the ipod/iphone,but still very playable.

Do VZW or Moto or both block apps on the market?

For example, I can't locate SPB Shell 3D on the market. If I go to this app from dev site by direct link I don't see Install button. I have purchased this app some time back even. Does somebody knows it is true? If yes then it is ridiculous. How dare they are to prevent me from using what I have paid for.
I know a lot of apps wont show if they have not updated to 2.3.4. Most are ok to use if you have 2.3.3

EA Games' Tetris works. However, the Need for Speed Shift app that I purchased doesn't work on my phone. I noticed that there is another Need for Speed app in the market that costs 10 USD.

I know apps can be filtered by OS version. The company I work for has an app that is only compatible on phones 2.1 or newer. Market will not even display the app on sub 2.1 devices or on 3.0 since its a Tablet OS. I have read, in the cases of tethering apps, that cell carriers can filter apps and Verizon has done so. I do not know whether Motorola does. I imagine they can, but why they would, I am not sure. I know there are Device specific apps (Droidlight) that are from Motorola that are visible and downloadable on other devices, they just do not work.
I have stopped to understand things. The SPB Shell 3D release history says
Version 1.2.1 (Aug 04, 2011):
Stability improvements
Fix Gallery for Motorola Atrix (2.3.4)
Other fixes
So it is targeted for 2.3.4. On my son's Atrix 2.3.4 I can see this app in the market. But not on my Droid 3. Mystery.
They can filter by OS version and device, so it may be supported on the Atrix but not the D3.

Exactly. That's why you won't find Wireless Tether on the Market haahah

[Q] Sky Go on ICS?

Basically,
Sky Go came out today and it says that the Galaxy is is supported. But, when I try to load it up, it says your device is not supported and I take it that it's saying that because I've got AOKP ICS on there.
Would anyone know a way of fixing this?
Thankssss

The resolution is fine after a minute or so.
Current problem appears to be that no other channel other than Sky news works, possibly because it is non encrypted.
Possible issue caused by rooted phones not being supported but that is a little unclear as people with unrooted phones are also experiencing the same issues, ie, the app is sticking at the buffering screen and shows no pictures.
Apart from that, its fantastic
I see there is a discussion going on here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22781731
They talk about apps that temporarily revoke root access to the phone to trick the Sky Go app into thinking you have a stock ROM. Sounds like too much effort for one app tbh, but I thought I'd share in case you hadn't seen it!
