I was previously working on getting Roblox working and I can say that it has 2 problems one of which can be fixed, you can get them to work together by using an app in the play store and there's a problem with the buttons, the inputs are whack and only the sticks work

got ya, thank you!

anymore progress?

Can't work
Hi all, I am using Gingerbread 2.3.3 now and the gameboid refuse to work. When I tried to upload a ROM, then suddenly it stopped functioning. It worked perfectly fine when I use Froyo 2.2.1. Can someone help me? or do I need to downgrade it to Froyo just for Gameboid.
Your a lifesaver. I searched earlier this year for this and struggled to find it. Pokemon FTW

Rooted? Now what

Just want some feedback as to what other people were doing with their recently rooted incredible?
I removed cityid and installed wifi tethering which was the main reason I wanted root in the first place. I downloaded htc news widget API but I don't know how to install it.
I'm looking forward to seeing a flashlight app that utilizes the dual LEDs.

Try this one. Still a little buggy, but it works and the dev is still working with it to enhance it.
http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tools/incredible-led-flashlight_hfyo.html
i saw it mentioned in another thread so i checked it out, Lamppu is a free flashlight app and it works great so far.
Only thing wrong with lamppu is that camera/camcorder doesn't work till after a reboot.
both work fine for me after using lamppu, no reboots needed

[Q] Q: thumb keyboard.

Ello guys and girls, just a quick question about the thumb keyboard! I have just installed it on my a500 and I go to use it and it forces close! Why? Is it because I'm a noob and i have set it up wrong or would it be something to do with the install? Thanks

Don't know. I've used it since day 1 on the Acer. Installation should be pretty straightforward (it just installs from the market, assuming you are installing from the market).
Then you enable it in settings and go through the setup choices.
Or did you install from an apk?

Most likely there are other files you either; 1. didn't copy to the right folder, 2. didn't set the permissions properly or both.
I suggest downloading it from the market and paying for it. It is worth the money IMO.
Delete the one you have contour market install from there. I to have been using it from day one.and I pre ordered my tab.typing on it now never one issue.
Thanks to everyone that got back to me, i will get it from the market and see how i get on!

[Q] Skype will be the death of me [SOLVED]

I have a Nexus 7. I have root. No custom ROM; the most modding I did was adding a cool font. I have Skype. I have tried both the official version and the lasted SkypeMod. I have downloaded and run CameraLauncher.
Here's the problem: When I am in a video call, I can see the other person just fine AND I can see myself in the little box in the corner. However, the other person cannot see me. They just see a little circle going round and round like it's waiting for me to transmit.
I have verified all settings and that I can soot and record video. This is driving me mental and ANY help or thoughts that could lead me in the right direction are greatly appreciated in advance.
/onlyhalfthetime
have you tried re-installing the app?
try another video chatting application (Google+ Hangouts, GTalk) and see if they give the same issue. then youll know if its the app itself or some hardware issue

This is a good troubleshooting step and I will try it later today, but like I said I can see myself in the little box in the corner while skyping and I can run the camera app.
Thank you for your suggestions so far. I'll be back tonight with results.

Rarely use skype but did try it on my rooted/stock nexus 7 and got exactly what you describe, video on nexus 7 but not on recipient's computer (only audio).
Could it be because you are rooted that causes the issue...... Like sky go you can only use if not rooted. Try using voodoo ota to temp hide root and then restart Skype.
Don't use Skype, not sure if affected by root. No harm in trying.

That is the version I am using too.
I realized today that I am a moron. I was only testing the Skype with one recipient. so, what if the problem was on their end?
Turns out, they were using a laptop with a mobile data card. I just used my wife's phone with the Skype app and all went well. video on both sides. :victory:
However!!! I need to continue testing because before I tried that I fund the advanced settings in SkypeMod that forces video calling! I checked Force-enable Video-calling, Force Camera Rotation, and Unlock Orientation.
Since I had to search high and low for someone with the same problem and no resolution, I understand how frustrating that can be. I will continue updating this thread and [SOLVED] it when I am satisfied that I got the answer for the people from the future.

New info!
The SkypeMod makes skype work on my rooted EVO 4G! that's a two year old phone. I had long since given up hope of using skype. This is awesome. That is all.
/onlyhalfthetime
P.S. When I'm not poor (I got the nexus 7 for Christmas, haters), I'm gonna throw the dev a few shekels. :good: :angel:
It was indeed the other person's issue. No one else could Skype him either. That was silly on my part. However, I did uninstall SkypeMod and reinstall the regular app and got no video with anyone. Maybe because I'm rooted? Using SkypeMod I was able to skype anyone and they could see my video. Just make sure you go into the advanced settings and force enable video.
What an awesome apk. I am still floored that it works on my EVO 4g!
Marked thread solved. Have a good one, gentlemen and ladies. :highfive:

Magazine ux problem

Hi, Can't seem to find an answer on this, when I go to setting in magazine ux, say as an example on the news widget, I click the three dots to customize the widget, it just spins and spins, no options to select which news I would like to add. Anyone else have this problem? It happens with all widgets, news, sports etc.
thanks

I haven't experienced that issue. Mine works fine. As crazy at it seems, have you tried "Restarting" your tablet? It's worth a try.

Yup, multiple times. I can scroll threw the news stories straight from the widget, but soon as I click the three dots, a white side window opens, but nothing populates, it just spins. I tried it on a second device at work and it was the same thing.

it might be good to keep a record of who is having the issue and if they rooted or not. Might be a connection. I am rooted with this issue..

Works for me
Same problem here. New out of the box, no root. I've tried factory reset, deleting all widgets and re-adding them, restarting flipboard, etc. This drives me nuts!
Ok so the changing language thing works and the options now display; in spanish, or whatever language I select other than english! It works in ever language but english! Why is this and any ideas? thanks

it seems that we're going to have to wait for a fix from samsung, hopefully they are aware of the issue
I've been talking to Flipboard support to see if there is anything they can do. I'll post if I find anything new. So far they have just told me to reset everything, etc.
Frustrating!
I also have the same problem straight out of the box. So I sent it back and this is the third device I have received with the same problem. I contacted Samsung and they said there is nothing they could do need to send it back for repair and it would take two weeks. I'm thinking it's a software issue maybe with flipboard app, I got a flipboard error at some point. Hope to see fixed with patch or update. Don't want to send a brand new tablet back for repair with a two week turnaround.
Also on another note when I called Samsung for an issue with the back just below the camera there was a hump they told me that the tablet I had purchase from Best Buy was not a valid SN and that the tablet had no warranty. After that I mad it a point to verify my SN with Samsung to make sure I was covered by the 1 year warranty.
Also change language to Spanish and it works but not in English
