Sony Tablet S1 & Java

EwenS99 — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 21:46:43 GMT

Bought the Sony Tablet last week and am trying to get to grips with it. So far I'm very impressed but have had problems with some pages on the web including one on the Sony Support page. The Tablet seems to need Java but when I try to download the free version I get a message saying that the mobile version is needed but that the Tablet must have certain software factory installed before Javamobile can be loaded.

So my question is, is Tablet S1 Java compatible and, if it is, where can I download the Javamobile software from?

are you using the native browser?

did you set JavaScript enabled in its settings under advanced?

did you set Enable Plugins to Always On in the same place?

does the website give the problem with these settings?

from what site are you downloading Java?

The Sony website including this forum has instances of Javascript and was not aware that Java was used so that should not be a problem in order to display. There are issues with the Javascript not fully optimised for the Tablet but that can be fixed by using HTML mode or updates by the web team.

As far as I am aware, looking on the Android Marketplace, there are no downloads for Java so it seems to follow suit with all my previous Android devices.

What are you trying to access or use that requires Java to be installed? Have you got a link which you can point us to?

Many thanks. Now I've found the settings to change it works fine.

I also had problems finding the fields to change. Finally found the right area.

go to browser settings (top right hand corner of the screen on the drop down menu). Then select advanced and ensure that the enable javascriPt field is ticked. That should solve it.
