[Q] video chat with vtok (google talk) - Acer Iconia A500

Hi folks,
I am trying out vtok (Google video chat) with my Iconia A500 and the person on the other end always sees me sideways. No matter what orientation I hold my tablet, their side (a PC in Gmail) rotates me so I am 90 degrees off. Is there a setting to fix this that anyone knows about?
TY!

Just out of curiosity, why are you using vtok when the stock google talk app can do video chat?

I feel shame! Thanks for pointing that out, I was unaware...

2.Where is the Native video chat app?
3.Why are so many app missing from Market? (Tango, etc)
4. Would Spar-parts app stretch apps to fit screen like Samsung tab? (no sure how it would work in honeycomb)
5. Anyone else have tethering problem? Im using my Droid X to Provide data for my xoom. Barnacle wont work and Wireless tether Keep disconnecting.
6.Is there a native File browser app?
7. Can you make folders on the home screen?
8. Anyone else having problems installing apps from the Market? (Get stuck at installing stage)
and Finally.....
9.Is there an update coming out any time soon???
I know this thing and new but i feel like I'm missing some info. Hope someone can answer a few.
Thanks
2.Where is the Native video chat app? Google talk
3.Why are so many app missing from Market? (Tango, etc) Limited tablet optimized apps right now
4. Would Spar-parts app stretch apps to fit screen like Samsung tab? (no sure how it would work in honeycomb) Spare parts app has been used to help with compatibilty similar to the Galaxy tab
5. Anyone else have tethering problem? Im using my Droid X to Provide data for my xoom. Barnacle wont work and Wireless tether Keep disconnecting. There is a hotspot feature instead of the tethering
9.Is there an update coming out any time soon??? The only update we have heard is when 4G module is installed with firmware.

1) Everything but high profile 1080p
2) Gtalk is preinstalled
3) Apps that will not work with the x-large mdpi format will not show up
4) Yes, spare parts works and does
5) I've used bluetooth tether and wifi tether and they both work flawless
6) No, most android phones don't come with a file browser, there are no files to browse usually unless you are looking at the sdcard or in this case the internal memory.
7) Not yet, but there is so much space, go nuts
8) No
9) Nothing announced, but what do you think? We've had 2.2/2.3/3.0/2.4 announced in the last Year and a half...
7. Not natively but I use Simi folder from the market. Works great. I am sure there are others.

So spare part works on the Xoom. I gotta add the apk through usb since it wont come up in the market.

[Q] Whats a video chatting app for the thrive?

I currently use an old version of QiK that i was using on my old viewsonic gtablet (R.I.P viewsonic gtablet). however its not really reliable, for starters i can only answer calls in landscape for some odd reason it force closes in portrait mode. i tried the other major vid chatting apps (tango, skype, gvtk) their were all epic fails. is there an app that um not yet aware of that works better ?
Google Talk works flawlessly in portrait and landscape mode. No pixelation and almost no lag: I tried it with a friend in Frankfurt, for a while I held the Thrive in front of a mirror, and my friend noticed almost no lag.
Yeah, Google Talk works the best for me as well. Tango, while it's not perfect, works just fine for me too.
Skype just came out with an update so you can video chat now

[Q] Facebook crash while sharing instant upload photo

Howdy! I'm new to this forum as I just got an N7 for Christmas (got one for my kids too) but I've been lurking on XDA for a while with my Nexus One and HOX.
Facebook is crashing on my N7 when I try to share a pic from the Gallery that the N7 sees as an Instant Upload from my HOX via Google+. I'm not sure if this is known issue or not - I tried the search and did not see anything similar. Sharing a pic that is local on the N7 works just fine. I'm guessing it's not really an "issue", just more like the way it is as the Instant Upload image is not locally stored on the device. But one would think that if the option is there it should work. I've not rooted or anything (yet - not sure if there's a need right now).
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this? If it should be considered an issue, is it an issue for Facebook or an issue for Google?
Just to test, I was able to upload an Instant Upload pic to Instagram just fine. Must be a Facebook issue.

[Q] Sound Search for Google Play

I noticed that i don't have all of the widgets that my tablet should be having, So i went on to search for the Sound search widget and guess what? No-one in canada can have it because we don't have Google Music.. That really pissed me off, What are your thoughts on this?
Do you guys have the widget or am i just tripping?
It would be great if you guys could give your location (Country) and if you have the widget or not..
The APK for the File works but you can only identify the songs, You can't buy it (Google Music)
Google, Why you gotta be like this?

[Q] cardboard and video

Hi everyone,
First I'm sorry if my post is in the wrong place.
I've recently started to look at the Google Carboard and I wanted to play with it making an app.
My goal was very basic: display a video but I'm stuck.
I don't know where to start from. Does anyone know about good tutorials on cardboard?
The one provided by google and the treasure hunt is bit short for me
Thanks
Marc
In addition, what I've done is I've modified the treasurehunt app to display a movie using MediaPlayer.
It works fine if I don't if th VR mode is disabled but when I enable it I get the following error
EGLNativeWindowType 0x765d1230 already connected to another API
eglCreateWindowSurface:414 error 3003 (EGL_BAD_ALLOC)
has s/o any idea ?
Marc
