hi

i have brought the vega and installed MoDaCo Custom ROM Add-On for the Advent Vega from one of the sticky posts above.

all seems to be installed ok but when i go onto facebook and try to play the touch screen games i am unble as the touch screen function dont seem to work for the game. does anyone know how i can get the games to work on the tablet using the touch screen function. im playing games like cityville where the touch screen dont work. but the same game will work on the galaxy tab via touch screen so i would expect it to work on this tablet

thanks for any help

Most of the FB games are Flash based so might be a flash prob. You can reinstall it using the instructions in the stickys. FB games work ok for me. Don't play many of em thou.

Fast test of flash is to go to bbc iplayer and see if you can get a vid to stream. If not then as Nemesis says fix flashplayer following the instructions in the sticky. Good luck!

i have done what it says above, i have gone to iplayer and clicked to watch a video initially i have a green arrow pointing down i then click on that and the video plays without a issue. i then go to facebook games and get the same arrow once again i click on it and the game will load on screen but when i try to tap on an icon or interact with the game nothing happens as if it dont know im touching the screen. but if i touch a normal icon i.e to go back home on facebook or go to a different section of facebook these will work its only the ingame thing that dont work. does anyone have any ideas on this please the wife wants to kill me as her games no working lol.

thx

try to play the facebook game from a different browser e.g. miren browser, however I fear that this may be a limitation in the mobile version of flash.

its in the market

you have a large choice of alternate browsers in the android market the best ones probably are either

Miren Browser

or

Dolphin HD

Also you could try switching the USB to host mode and using a mouse? See if that makes any difference?

I am glad this thread has been posted. I am about to buy a Vega to for this very reason.

I've been trying to get an answer to this very question myself.

You say that it won't play games such as Farmville because its CPU intensive, it has a 1ghz processor and my Asus Eee PC netbook which has a 900mhz which seems to work just fine playing the Facebook games, I can't see why they wouldn't work, it just seems strange.

Would it work on the Skyfire browser do you think?

Its possibly an issue with the Tegra specific version of Flash, the galaxy tab has a single core proccessor the same as is in the phone. The tegra version of flash is still in beta as far as i know. Hopefully these issues will be ironed out by a future release of flash.

I got a direct message from Adent Vega on twitter because I tweeted them to ask them if it the Vega works on Facebook games such as Farmville.

They Said yes they tried it and it worked without any problems.
