Best way to share game saves and twitter timeline between N7 and phone? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Found some solution online but couldn't try them cause I haven't received my N7 yet to try them out:
GameShare
DataSync
GameOn
Also is there an app that sync where you stopped at your timeline? that would be great.
Can you share your experience if you tried them? if not try and tell your experience to the Android realm : )

Hands down datasync. Well to be fair I haven't tried the other two, but that's because I never had to. Datasync works flawlessly even when it first got released for me. I used that to transfer some save data from a few apps today when I got my N7. Give them all a try but definitely start with DataSync.

Thank You!
What about twitter? is there any twitter app with timeline position sync.
the only solution I've found is using TweetMarker. which am trying when N7 arrives

Tweetmarker works quite well. The only two Twitter apps that I know of that use it are Plume and Tweetlanes. Tweetlanes isn't officially supported on tablets though, but the developer makes the apk availabale here: https://plus.google.com/104649936579980037256/posts/53SL5vZ3kZL
Boid is meant to add Tweetmarker support, but their development of key features isn't exactly quick so I wouldn't hold out.

Google Buzz

Anyone got buzz.google.com working on the Nexus One? I always get the desktop view when I go to that site.
and I have Cyanogen 5.0Beta4. I seem to lost the ability to use mobile websites like espn, instead i get the full desktop version.
Thanks

If you lost the ability to see the mobile pages then you need to install the latest MT addition from Cyanogen. There was an issue with the first MT add on he put out and fixed it in the second one.
I recommend going back and re applying the MT add on and you should be able to see mobile pages again.
You can also D/L Google Maps 4.0 with built in Buzz support. Just go to the market, click on the downloads tab, and the update should be waiting for you!
Anyone knows why I don't have the update promted yet? Is it US only? (I'm oversea).
Also, if I go to buzz website on my N1, I can see the interface, but if I post a Buzz.. it keep spinning a small wheel in front of it, and it never completes (nor posts my Buzz)
Any ideea?
I got the same issue. Maybe it is because our gmail hasn't been updated with Buzz yet.
update google maps in the market
Anyone else find it subliminally retarded that Google puts the Nexus one behind the Iphone on its Buzz page ?
heh yeah, I noticed that myself...
However, here: http://www.google.com/intl/en/mobile/buzz/ there is an iPhone surrounded by 2 N1's.
Go figure.
I understand google though - people with androids will probably get buzz anyway in some future update (won't be surprised if it will be come a builtin app/link like google goggles) - but the real challenge is for them to get iPhone users to use it, pushing them more towards the google cloud.

click get buzz on you phone. you will be happy too see it has a nexus one first then a iphone, followed by another N1. if that helps you a bit lol
I'm quite liking buzz. It's so easy for me to see what people in my area are saying and I can just strike up a conversation with them.
Initially I thought 'How will they get people to leave Twitter to do this' then you realise pretty much everyone is already registered (I'm following people already who have never heard of Buzz!) it's just if they choose to use it.

After a few tries I got to post a buzz both from the page in the browser, and from google maps.
But, now I can't delete the two posts...
Lots of spinning wheels. Seems unfinished.
But I like the idea. Hope it will work better in the coming days

I had those issues too - read that it might have to do with the accepting terms thing not registered properly so I wiped my Browser cache and rebooted.
Seems to still do it but then later I'll see it was posted. Also seems to do it straight after a reboot, but then become sluggish. Still glitchy I guess

Edit - Just updated maps and the Buzz Layer thing seems to work better than the one via mobile google. What will be useful I think once it takes off, is that you can pop over to a place and look for any buzz about traffic or weather problems that people might post from a location.

Thanks. Reflashing the mt addon allowed me to see mobile pages again. Buzz works fine now.
I've updated my Maps application to version 4 via Market, but I am not seeing the Buzz layer in Maps.
I wonder is it because this is being rolled out on a country by country basis?
The buzz layer is not enabled by default, you need to press the options, and then choose layers->buzz.
The easiest way to check if your gmap version is correct is to go to options->about - it should be 4.0.0 (#4046).

Thanks. My Maps is of the version you have listed. However when I go to Layers, I do not see the Buzz layer available for selection. Maybe, like Navigation, this Buzz layer will be turned on for other countries bit by bit?
Anyway I'll wait and see how it goes.

Facebook>?

Has anyone been able to find a way to make Facebook update properly on the HD2 these days?
I cannot see any of my recent wall posts, photos etc.
Thanks.
I've also been having this same problem. I had to log out and re-log back in to refresh the updates. I don't know why it's been doing this.
log out log in again every time you want it to update or you can use the client build into the browser. Been fudged up for a few weeks now
Logging in and out does not seem to work for me oddly enough.
Seems like such a simple program.
I know they are working on new security, interfaces, certificates and the like, but...really...this is as rudimentary a facebook experience as one can get and I find it very strange that it has not been addressed with an update in the marketplace.
Glad to see that some others here have had their troubles start with this around the same time I did.
No, not happy for your woes...just nice to know I am not alone!
Install the version NOT from the Marketplace or the one that came preinstalled on the HD2. Its the same version according to about, but for some reason, this version for me has been working fine for around a week where as the others won't update and haven
t updated for me for almost a month.

I appreciate the heads-up, but where is this version "not from the marketplace" to be found?
You can get it directly from Facebook, or from Windowsmobile.com.
can you post the facebook cab you are using?

this is an older version of the app.. the current version is 1.1.0.17
Well that is the latest version that I could find. Its the same as the one here..but the functionality is basically the same despite the version number.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/facebook.mspx
the version off of the market place is 1.1.0.17 the one on the phone was older than that by a long shot as it was 1.0.0.0.7 or something like that
Which is very true, but they both offer the same features and functionality so the version differenece seems prettty trivial to me.
while the features are similar the PQ is loads better on the new app....no more low res crap pix.......

Nothing seems to fix it. The ONLY way I can get on Facebook on my HD2 now, is to use XDA-Facebook...which is a better application anyway in my opinion. I think the problem is with Facebook itself, not the app but I cannot confirm this.

From what I've read it's a Microsoft issue. FB changed some **** and Microsoft has yet to develop an update to make their facebook app work with facebook. I guess FB let Android, Iphone, etc know the changes were coming and Microsoft just doesn't care about our Winmo 6.5 software enough to work on it. There are some threads on the internet about this where people are wigging the hell out over it. Saying they will never buy another winmo phone because of it. It's kinda funny.
The FB app on my phone hasn't worked for over a month. Do I care? Not that much. The FB app on my iphone 2G works just fine.

Ditto. The Facebook app has never worked for me. As soon as I enter my user information the app will update my news feed, photos, and status ONCE. Ever since, I have found that the mobile version of FB is excellent for what I need. I it doubt that the app will ever be updated.

Google Music beta - Outside US access :D

Hey Guys
Woke up this morning to an email from Google saying my invite for Google Music beta has been accepted! In the process of uploading all my tracks now..
Thing is... I'm in New Zealand. I did request an invite with a proxy browser but I never expected to actually get an invite as it's currently closed to US only right?
Unless they've broadened their reach in response to iCloud, otherwise the proxy was all I needed...
I should note that I have a Google voice account by the same means (proxy browser), maybe that helped trick them.
Either way I thought I'd post to see if anyone else has gotten access besides our American ...friends.
So far it works great, but all my album art is the same image, and it's taking a very long time to upload, also the upload program has skipped 4000 songs due to an error.....
And what happens if I change the filename or meta data of a song, does it upload it again as another song? I'd also really love the ability to delete a song from my harddrive if I delete it from the cloud, as I have a lot of music that I haven't yet decided if its worthy to keep or not.
This is really great because I have unlimited 3G access with my employee plan @ vodafone
I got the invite too this morning and I have access to google music without a proxy. I'm in Romania. Still, because of this, I can't download the music app from the market.
Try this m8...
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.notenking.mf
Or rather this one: https://market.android.com/details?id=ch.racic.android.marketenabler
I got mine last night too. But I am beginning to question how much I'll use it as I don't have an unlimited download plan...oh well, it's always nice to have
I did the same thing from the UK, got an invite a few days ago, have uploaded some music but not quite sure yet on their policy of making sure it's all legally acquired....
Streaming seems to work well though
The client works fine in linux using wine 1.3.
Gosh...... after uploading 400 songs I realised they all had the same lame album art image because of a stupid JPG in a root folder.... I've now spent the better half of my day off trying to get album art for all my songs @[email protected]". Discovered the hard way it's best to just put all ur music into album folders and update with WMP...
I got one too. And I am from China.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Just to clarify, you guys all used a proxy server to do this, right? I'm going to try this at home tonight. I don't know how to set up a proxy/VPN so if someone can kindly post a link to a very simple instruction it would be great. Otherwise I can do a Google Search I guess. Thanks!
And I'm from Canada. Yesterday the new Music app update shows up on the Android Market. I didn't use market enabler or anything. It just showed up. I updated and this new music app replaced the stock one.
Just requested an invitation via VPN, hope I get it
How long it take to response after the request send? I requested 2 weeks ago, but no response from google yet. i m from Malaysia, i used proxy to request.
I requested about 2 weeks ago using hidemyass and haven't heard anything either, so you're not alone.
According to Paul @ MoDaCo you can speed things up by editing your build.prop so it looks like you're using a 3.0.1 Xoom.

I used the HideMyAss extension to the Chrome browser (probably also available for FF) to request an invite. I'm based in Ireland and got an invite after a couple of weeks after signing up. Started uploading my 5000+ songs yesterday and so far about 650 are done. The upload speed on my internet connection is rather slow.
Hidemyass.com worked for me I think, if that fails and you need software I recommend Hotspot shield.
Here's my blog for initial experience, if you're wanting to make sure your music collection is tidy before committing it to the Cloud, check out http://jamesyb0i.blogspot.com/2011/06/album-where-art-thou.html
Thanks! I also came across hidemyass.com after some Googling but wasn't sure how reliable it is. Since a couple of you have tried it, I think it should be safe

Same goes to my gv too

no I mean, logging in with my username and password through a proxy. Is it possible for the proxy to eavesdrop? But either way, I used it to request an invite

S Note for Windows - View, Create, & Sync with your Device

Did you guys know this existed? Back when Samsung introduced the Ativ's there was a version of S Note that did a version check and only worked on Samsung PC's. Being able to share my device-created S Note's with my PC has been kind of a Holy Grail goal. Apparently Samsung listened. If this old news sorry, I must have been sleeping under a rock.

Hi Guys,
Did anyone actualla get this to work?
I installed it and tried adding a few notes through the windows app, hit sync, nothing comes over to my devices. The same in reverse.

The same thing! I think it's for the old S Note ...
Ever note sync allows the same thing and works across all systems.

Works fine for me. I'm sync'ing S Notes across two PCs, a N3, and my N10.1-14. I had some initial trouble with my N10.1-14. Turn off S Note sync in your Samsung Account (under settings) and also in S Note itself. Delete the S Notes on your device. Go in to Application manger and clear cache and data for the S Note app. Set it back up and then turn both sync's back on. Your previously deleted notes will be restored. It worked fine for me after that. Note: if you do what I described wrong or out of order you'll lose any S Notes you've created. The same thing happens some times with Browser bookmarks and what I described is the way to fix that too.
You can also manually import S Notes from your Samsung account. I think what's tripping up sync sometimes is that a ton of old S Notes in SNB format are left behind. Here's mine and they're useless to me now and trapped on Samsung's servers forever.

Actually, it's only for the new S Note. 18 people thanked the first post so I'm assuming they're using desktop S Note without issue. Just because a couple of people are having problems which could be for a litany of reasons doesn't mean desktop S Note or sync'ing via Samsung are broken. Evernote seems stupid to me and just another resource hogging apps screening, storing, and leaving my data open to hacking. If I weren't using S Note I'd be using OneNote because of its integration and compatibility with MS Office which is used by 95% of the Fortune 1000. To each their own.

Weird Windows behavior
Thank you for sharing this (hit the right button:good:!)
However! In desktop app it does show only few of my notes. While the notes are synchronizing perfect between Note 3 and Note 10.1 (2014)
Do you know any fixes for this? Did you experience it as well?
Not Working for me
Hello I have tried using this app in two computers (win 7 and win 8) the app does not work.
I tried using diffrent sync options, or using only local storege
The program is stuck when it loads, it says it is creating database, and does not continue from there
at the end windows reports the program stopped working.
Tried asking samsung and they said there is a problem with this version.
Any work around?
Thanks! Works between Win7PC and the p605
Nice tip.

Yes - I sync from the tablet to Evernote and don't have any issues as far as that goes. It's only the desktop app that will not show any notes from Evernote.
I had no issues downloading/installing the app and I'm in the states.
Maybe firewall is blocking you.

Read It Later no longer syncing with Pocket

Hey all,
The other day Read It Later stopped updating with the Pocket website online. I'm getting a dialogue that it is syncing lists but nothing else is happening, even if I leave it to try for half an hour. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this!
I'm running a rooted Nook Simple Touch with software version 1.1.0.
Read It Later is the Pro 1.3 version.
I should be clear, the app is no longer downloading new articles or taking them out of the to-read queue when syncing. It is accessing my archive, so some kind of connection is still present!
Edit: found it elsewhere on this site. Will fire it up this evening and let you know if it works!
Actually I came here today hoping someone might share a copy of readitlater.apk with me? My NST recently broke, I bought another, but sadly hadn't backed up all my apks and so now can't get at anything! Pocket are refusing to send me the apk of the old version. If you would be willing to send me your apk, I can see if it works for me -- or if it is now indeed borked for everyone. [I did pay for read it later pro back in the day, I am not trying to nick something, though you'll just have to take my word for that....]

Sorry -- still alive here, but life has been unexpectedly busy and I haven't been able to play with my nook. Hopefully this weekend.
Here's my current workaround: I use IFTTT to sync any new Read It Later addittion to Instapaper, and then I use Instafetch (which works on the Nook) to read them there. The free version lets you read 10 articles at a time.
The issue with this is that I need to check off the read articles in Read It Later, since the activities in Instapaper don't sync back to Read It Later.
But there might be an IFTTT receipe for that...
So, did y'all see this post?
I had not. I had followed that thread to get the Kindle working, but it looks like whatever the problem was went beyond Kindle. I followed the directions, starting using the 1.0.1 app instead of 1.3 Pro, and it's syncing again! Hooray!
Read it Later / Pocket was probably my heaviest usage of the Nook so I was really wondering what I was going to do if it was terminally gone.
(My Instapaper -> Instafetch workaround was a bit glitchy...)
Anyone following this follow nmyshkin's link!
