Runescape on gs2 with Ubuntu.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my phone and am trying to play runescape. It has Java 6 on it but the runedcape browser says I don't have Java or is outdated. There is an option under Java to install icetea plugin. will this make it work? Or do I need another browser besides Firefox? Is there. Way to make this work?

One day you'll realize how much of a waste of time RS is, trust me I've been there
OT: Stick to the browser, I can't imagine how hard it is to play on a phone

Process handler

Hello XDA Developers!
I'm happy owner of the HTC Wildfire and am currently running Cyanogenmod 7 one it. ( Latest )
What I would like is to limit the amount of apps & processes running in the background.
I saw this on the HTC Titan ( Windows mobile ) and that way 512mb of ram was enough. And that phone had 7 screens to choose from with each an app running on, any more than 7 apps it would close one. I thought this was really usefull and actually a quick way to search between the apps.
I'd like to know if this is possible with our phone. Please I would appreciate an answer.
Regards,
Ciryk

if you're rooted and s-off almost everything the hardware is capable of is possible
The most important thing for getting a small memory footprint is to avoid that your apps start all their processes and services already at boot. Search the forum, there are a lot of threads about what, where and how to tweak and to achieve certain things.

Not sure if it's there yet in 2.3. But try checking in an app called Dev tools for something called Background process limit.

Thanks for the fast replies guys!
Is there any android version ready to do this? I'm ready to change ROM if needed just to run this baby smoothly. I can't stand lags, or anything that aint smooth.
I'll go around this forum to see what's developped allready but on my own I cannot develop anything

Check in your current CM7 setup for an app called Dev tools and/or Spare tools (not sure in which one of these the option is) for an option called "Background Process limit"
If it's not there (in either Dev tools or Spare tools) you may have to install an ICS ROM to get this option.

I've Dev Tools and Spare Parts installed - not sure if that's default, though

It is.
I remember hiding them from the appdrawer everytime I installed CM7, because I never needed them

I found it and set it to a limit of 2 apps, don't know if it works thought. Thanks for the info!

I've never used it so I don't really know much about it - but to be honest 2 background processes - if this also means system processes that could be difficult...

Cordova in to existing app

Developing for someone who has an app built by someone else and we now have that original native code. Clients wants some additional functionality that would be better suited to UIwebview (due to frequent changes) but also wants to be able to talk to camera etc. Would it be possible to build new sections in Cordova and integrate to existing xcode developed native code? I know phonegap creates a final package so I'm just referring to Cordova.

We can do but its kind of hacky thing running a part of project in native nd next part in Phonegap. I dnt recommend this

Are you using the Javascript API, or the Android one?
If you are using the Javascript API, you can use the Places API as suggested by jaison. You can find an example here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-searchbox

Hi,
I recently released an open source app that might help you using the google maps api.
Please check github.com/zland
You can get instructions on how to use google maps api by looking into the sub project zland-map (github.com/zland/zland-map).
To run the project simply clone it and execute gulp (you can find detailed instructions in the github.com/zland/zland-map/README.md)
Take a closer look into the file components/GoogleMap.jsx
For using the google maps api directions service clone the project github.com/zland/zland-generator-spot and look into the file services/RouteRequestDispatcher.js
