Did any one try out Full HD Videos on Xperia L??

I did try some Full HD videos (mp4 and mkv), which seem to run fine in MX Player for the most part, but at times I have to run them in SW Decoder mode as it says that "Unable to play using HW Decoder".

Where as the default player will play all the videos where Windows 8 does not give the message that it won't play when you are going to copy that file to the phone...

I installed adobe flash player in my phone, the videos play well in the normal mode, but shows a blank/black screen when I play in full screen. The site are webcam sites

Why ?

I guess its because android has dropped support for flash and has issues with it.

And regarding 768 mb ram out of 1gb, the rest of the ram is reserved for system use.

Hey friends, I joined the bandwagon too by buying Xperia L :D
I think it's a great phone. The battery life is very low for now, but I hope it will improve somewhat in a few weeks.

I replaced the default launcher with Nova launcher, because I wanted to keep my apps in tabs and folders. But now the Walkman widget has disappeared from the home screen. Is there a way to bring the Walkman widget back?

And why doesn't the Chrome to Phone app install on this device? It is shown as incompatible on Google Play.

I was really disappointed to see that it doesn't support USB OTG.

This is my first android device. So just sharing a list of apps that I installed and really liked in the first week (I know most of these would be really popular, but still):

1. Dolphin browser2. iSlash
3. Taptu4. IMDb
5. Active Lockscreen6. Expense Manager
7. ColorDict8. Moon+ Reader
9. MX Player10. Google Currents
11. Nova launcher12. Poweramp (just running the trial version, Very expensive this one :( )
13. Contacts+14. Google Keep
15. GTasks16. SwiftKey (currently using trial, but it's so good, I'm definitely going to buy it)

Depends on the device tbh

If its a high end device like S4,Z or One then ROMs development is fast

Its a different story for mid range devices like L as they are not that popular and thus development is slow compared to high end. ;)

Yeah, that's one thing I can't wrap my mind around. In my old Nokia 5230, I could use data and calls simultaneously. But that doesn't happen on android. Why is it so?
------------------------------

Today I wanted to transfer some data from my friend's phone and since bluetooth is so slow, I wanted to use Wi-fi. I discovered an app named SuperBeam. It's dead simple to use and transfer speed between the phones went upto 36mbps. I transferred almost 400MB from his phone to mine in under 5 minutes (including the time taken to select the files).
This is a great app if you are transferring large files between phone. But the app needs to be installed on both the phones.

Actually the problem lies only in 2G. In 3G, you can make data and voice connections simultaneously, but not in 2G.
