The XDA-App just uses Board Express as its basis. I agree with the OP that Board Express is very sluggish. It just crashed too often and sometimes hangs for >10s. We need something like the native Tapatalk client for Android.

Dead Trigger Issue

When I load into a mission the first few seconds of game play stutters a lot.
Is this a common issue and is there any way to fix this?
I am using TeamEos ROM.
Thanks

If it doesn't bother you you can change from ultra high settings too high this solves the problem for me

Ultra high works fine for me .never had a issue yet ....besides losing all my crap when they updated it keep force closing if we had the first release of dead trigger ..so I had to re install....
The posted the info about updating a few days after.........
Either than that no issues on updated version

Where do you get Polaris Office and is it available for purchase or is it still free? I know it was on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus.

Given that Google bought quick office, I would at least consider it since it's likely to evolve into the de facto standard for the android platform.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Using Quickoffice HD its the best looking and easiest to use in my experience.
best for me has been office suite. The advantages are many including opening password protected files
Quick Office HD... if you buy it on the Play store you have to side load it...otherwise you can buy it on Amazon and it installs without issue.

I prefer documents to go. Its the only one of the major office apps out there that worked flawlessly with some of my gigantic excel spread sheets. All the others crashed or failed to load properly these spreadsheets.
Kingsoft Office works for me. Free too.
why not google docs/drive?

Why can I not find Polaris anywhere?! I've tried their site, Google play, and even ripping the apk from my Transformer Prime...still no dice. Any ideas?

I use Smart Office 2, it was a sale on play for something like £1-£2, tried kingsoffice on the Sony tablet S I used to have, but it was too laggy for me, SO2 worked great on that then and now.
It has the 'swish' factor plus use can share in all the usual places, as well as the usual doc, docx etc.

Documents to go is another app to look at as well. It includes word, excel, powerpoint, and a pdf reader

Opera browser beta

Opera has released a beta of their new WebKit browser. I am very very impressed with it's performance. Some of the benchmarks I ran were very impressive. Besides a few bugs it works very well and is my daily browser now. Go check it out in the play store.

Performance is good...but I don't like the GUI. Don't hide my back/forward buttons, Opera.
The pie controls on the stock browser are the best...full screen browsing when not needed and out of the way, there when you want them with minimal effort.
Yeah the pie controls are pretty nice.

Yup . This has me really excited for the future of opera.

So how do you get Flash to work on this?
I don't think flash works with this opera.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I agree Opera browser beta is a nice browser.
I've been using Opera Mobile as my main browser for a few years now, so I have plenty of faith in the company when it comes to mobile browsers.
can anyone share the apk? I can't download from the play store
Kind of ugly but was ok.
I like firefox better out of all browers on android.

I don't use mobile users agent, I always view the desktop website, so as far as desktop views go, opera is best because it reflows the text to fit in the screen when you Zoom. other browsers are weak with this.
Firefox is good, cause it supports native flash, but lately habit browser kicks firefoxes ass. But again neither of these have the reflow technology like opera.

Yeah I use Firefox occasionally as well. Its pretty nice. Sometimes scrolling isn't as smooth. It will take a while but I'm very curious to see what Mozilla does with servo.

What is the best Office app for android In Your Opinion?

I am looking for the best office app (paid or free) which doesn't lag and have rich feature, like we can make table, customize font, align text, etc.
I tried QuickOffice but still lag when typing and scrolling, Office Suite 7 is better and have a ton of features too, but it still lag.
Google drive seems okay, no lag, but it lack of feature and cannot edit or view my documents in internal storage.
To moderator: if I posted this in wrong section please move it, cause I am confused between post this on Q&A or theme and apps.

I am using Office Suite Pro 7 now, but a bit lag while scrolling pages.
Web view of it works fine tho, but looking for more fluid office viewer and editor.
I will try skydrive and kingsoft office tomorrow.
Thanks guys for your help

google drive just updated. Now it allows u to store files offline.
Paid for officesuite, and have tried a bunch of others but nothing seems to really feel right to me. I use Evernote and format on my laptop but officesuite served its purpose for me. I fried my laptop right before finals about 2 years ago.....it saved my semester

Kingsoft office is definitely most fluid office in my opinion, no lag when opening and editing, has a lot of features too.

I got OfficeSuite when it was on sale a couple months ago, and I find that it works really well.

Amazon Prime Video

There was a thread about this in the general section, but I can't find it now and its probably better suited here.
So has anyone been able to get it to play videos?
I sideloaded the app and it loads up fine, but when you click a movie it closes.

Not sure how everyone else watches but I use Firefox with phony plugin set to firefox desktop.

Yeah I'm aware of playing it with flash, but having the stand alone app would be a better option.

I think there have been some changes in the way Android handles video playback. I side loaded MX Player and it doesn't support 4.3, HBO Go never loads
