I saw in another thread that with the discovery that the zt-180 had an ARM11 processor there wouldn't be any flash support but I found and article which seems to suggests that Flash 10 will be supported with ARM11. Can any of you tech heads comment

Flash with Multi-touch coming to Windows Mobile, needs ARM11 or Cortex ACheers

Flash compatibility doesn't rely fully on hardware, its the software that matters. If you can get a full, working port of froyo, then flash will work.

You are both mistaken on that... Please see this: rich Internet applications | Adobe Flash Player system requirements

That's disappointing

So does this mean that the Telechip pads won't be able to run flash either?

The information you have shown simply states that version 10.1 requires those specs. So it's not to say that 10.x 11.x and so on might not work with any other number of DSPs. Anyway it says General....

Hello There,First time poster but have been following the M16 pretty keenly. Whilst it's now out of my price range (due to having just brought a car) i'm hoping after xmas it will be back within my sights, and hopefully much improved.One observation with people talking about Flash, I realise until they upgrade the OS to include the marketplace this isnt particularly helpful, but once this is back in place could you not simply use the Skyfire browser, which, to my knowledge, allows you to stream flash without having flash supported on your mobile OS?Kind RegardsKris

 

[Tarano]

You can use skyfire but somehow the stuff i want to stream never seems to work on skyfire so i would like real flash if possible.

As you probably know flash is not only for streming videos. There are a lot of pages with interactive flash animations, and other pages that are completely build on flash. So, i dont particulary like flash (hopefully it will die soon with html5), but nowadays at least 40% of the web (I'm guessing) is not "browsable" without a compatible flash browser, like it or not.

That's how I see it, "General" used in this context doesn't mean that you have to have that exact HW. It may run on some other systems, but performance may not be ideal in all situations. We'll have to wait and see what works...

Don't listen to JamesDroid. Look up his posts. Adobe is not implementing Adobe Flash for ARM11. It's final. The CPUs are not powerful enough to run it. I believe the current Adobe Flash plugin for Froyo has ARMv7 specific NDK instructions and will not work on ARMv6.

Hi,I too am a NooB. I just purchased a Zenithink ZT-180 from this guy on eBay yesterday:USPS-Express Zenithink ePad Android OS 2.1 ZT-180 2GB - eBay (item 260645233976 end time Sep-02-10 07:16:27 PDT)I have spent the last two days solid reading thread after thread after thread. I guess the question that I have is that if this really is the ARM11 processor as I am now believing it to be, then am I correct in my comprehension that there is no Adobe Flash support, and consequently no YouTube at all? Or can I just use SkyFire, and call it good?Thanks much,-Laurence

Youtube does work, you just need the youtube app. It works on my Orphan M16, identical to what your buying. But if you have been reading the posts, you should know that.

where can you get skyfire? i can't find it anywhere

 

[cpg716]

One thing is people have gotten Flash to run on older Android devices, that don't meet those specifications listed on Adobe's page. I think they mean, this is what we think it will work well on...CPG

 

[mingnon]

get it from android market ;-)
