Hello  :),

I'm following this program for quite a long time but I had a hard time to register... :crazy:

I have quite a lot of tablets/phones.
The picture shows some with nspiroid 1.11.
1280x800 is perfect, but higher resolutions are a mixed bag.
I'm a math teacher and this program is really good with a videoprojector  :thumbsup:, better than the windows ti official emulator which is way too small, even scaled up.
if I can help, I can try different versions on this devices :

nexus 7, nexus 9, galaxy note 3, padfone mini, padfone s, galaxy tab pro 8.4; galaxy note 12.2, lenovo a7-40, lenovo yoga2 pro 13.3.

Thanks for this really good work.

Sincerely.

JP PERRON

Hi @PERRON welcome to Omnimaga,

Your pictures clear show some of the limitations of Nspiroid. Thanks for that! 
At first, I've only tried to address some of the commonly used resolution and pixel densities. To be honest, I did not bother (yet) to provide a GUI that would match any resolution/density both for phones and tablets (which tend to have a much lower pixel density!). Going forward, I might just put some more effort into it, if I find that ppl really like/use it.

Quite an arsenal of tablets you've got there, I will certainly be more than happy to have you (I mean them) as a guinea pig, hehe.

Please stay tuned, thanks for the kind words and have a Merry Christmas.

It will take some time but there's some hope ;). Just a first draft on how it will eventually look on the Samsung tab pro 8.4, 1600x2560. Graphics aren't done yet.

@PERRON
I just made a new release (v1.14) that includes BETA support for: GalaxyTab Pro 8.4 , 2560 x 1600 pixels , ~359 ppi     (xlarge-xhdpi)

I've also identified the problems for
   Asus Padfone S - DockStation , 1920 x 1200, ~251ppi     (xlarge-hdpi)
   Lenovo yoga2 pro, 2560 x 1440 pixels, ~221ppi       (xlarge-mdpi)

Nspiroid still lacks support for xlarge-hdpi and xlarge-mdpi. I will probably add them later.

As more devices classes are added, Nspiroid size just increases (basically due to the graphics). Omnimaga has attachments' file size limited to 1024kB, so I've split Nspiroid in 1Mb chunks.
 
Today is a pretty busy day for most of us, so when you have time please tell me if it works (and what doesn't) on your 'GalaxyTab Pro 8.4' device.

@PERRON
Thanks for the feedback! I intend to improve Nspiroid to include more tablet devices. Just need a bit of more time...

@khiconmtv
Oops, that was a silly clash with the last changes. Sorry about that and thanks for reporting it. Hope is fixed now. As a bonus, i've slightly adjusted the usbexplorer listview row and also the favorites popup. I won't change the version, it stays v1.14.

@PERRON (and other interested users,  ;) )

Here is a Nspiroid v1.15. A beta solution to handle some tablets: xlarge-xhdpi (eg, Galay Tab Pro 8.4),  xlarge-hdpi (eg, Asus PadfoneS Dock, 9.0) and xlarge-tvdpi (eg, Lenovo Yoga2 Pro, 13.3).
The graphics (namely in Yoga2 Pro 13.3 ) are  not in a final stage, they need to be scaled up a bit, but i reckon is good enough for testing.

It's quite possible that some side effects with previously supported phone devices might occur. Please report them and I will try to fix them ASAP.

Hello,

Not yet... But I do like the big screen on the lenovo screenshot  :D.

Have a nice day.

Hi PERRON,
1. SamsungPro8: is a bug that i've already fixed (recall, it was working in v114).
2. PadfoneS: Does it work?
3. Yoga2: Unfortunately, the android system places in the same density bucket the PadfoneS (~251ppi) and the Yoga2 (~221ppi). What obviously creates all sorts of new problems. I'll need to work on it for a while. The disparity between the actual result and my solution, is due to the fact that I only have a very complicated (;)) windows emulator. So we need a bit of patience here.

I will announce a new test release when I have something better tested. Thanks again and stay tuned.

*Edit*: Would that be ok for you to have the PadfoneS solution mapped 'into a corner' of the Yoga2, as a quick workaround?

@PERRON Welcome to Omnimaga. I'm sorry you had trouble registering initially. What was was causing the issue?

No idea.
I was considered as spam. I asked for help to sorunome, which tried to whitelist both email adresses I had used.
He then suggested to go stopforumspam, but was not the list.

I tried once more and it worked... ;D

Ok, I see. Well, I'm glad you were eventually able to register. :)
