[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fiction300:
Will soon give a last try to the ROM available on this site.

Currently running G-Harmony-Gingerbread

This one doesnt work for me:

- no video playback. Keep getting the "cant play this video" error

- Gallery FC when browsing picture folder with 100+ photos

- Bluetooth FC shortly after reboot

- when puting USB in mass storage, it makes the Gtab freeze. Need to reboot after that

I liked almost eveything about this ROM, except for the above mentioned.

Came form calkulin's ROM that had similar problems.

Will now try TNT-Lite 4.4 from roebeet.

My last try. If this doesnt work, the Gtab is going back to tigerdirect.ca

I would have prefer to keep it, but this device just cant be used for what it was meant to. (flashing ROM is a means, not a hobby, for me)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amusedkid:
What do you use it for? I have been on TNT 3.1.4 since Jan and no big issues. Only problems i had are: gallery not showing any pics (i am using quickpic now from android market) and camera upside down.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fiction300:
I use it for multimedia:

- Video

- Music

- Photos (must have centralized access to picture on sdcard and picasa)

- Skifta app (DLNA controler/player)

and for general internet:

- Web browsing

- Picasa

- Facebook

- messenging

Nothing really exotic.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrykrishs:
I am on Harmony gingerbread too... installed last night. Installed just to see and feel gingerbread... I am happy with it.

I too use it my GTab for games, mail browsing, music and youtube... I am GOOD!!!

Thanks "tjohnsonjr"
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harrykrishs:
OMG!! I am unable to configure and check my gmail account using GMail App after upgrading to Harmony gingerbread (i also installed GAPP)? Am i missing something?

Anyhow i configured my Gmail account in "Email" app. But still want to know if i can configure my account in "GMail" app.

I have a DHD, running the android 2.2.

I have a problem, after i receive or make a call, the phone ringtone volume is automatically reduced and set to almost 15-20%. I have to increase it manually.

I have not installed any app to change volume or profile etc.

I formatted my phone last week only. someone please guide me to solve the problem.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathrania:
Someone please solve the issue
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkieSA:
I had a similar problem. Download volume ace from the market and set your volume with that.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathrania:
I have installed the said app, and now the problem seems to be solved.

Thanks a lot. :)

Dude lighten up, he's just asking for our opinions on the best apps, did you even read his post before spouting that?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rljetsetradio:
What?

that must be the most awkward scanning.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] bso44:
I did do a search but I just wanted to know what people's favorites were so I can try them out. I only saw one extensive thread that was specific for the Gtab and that was only for apps and game that were either working or not working.

My favorites are:

Google Reader

Evernote

Dolphin browser HD

Winamp: but would love to get MIUI player (Can't find it for gtab)

awd launcher

Aldiko: Best ebook reader

Skype

Documents to go

Dropbox
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tgpqaz:
I love Google Earth, N64oid, and flash... because i cant have them on my aria
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jasonwuzthere:
Yep, but it doesn't use an "account" like interface, so you have to send all of your requests again. Hopefully they'll fix that with an update.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] bso44:
Interesting. I'll check it out.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] buzzzard:

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] farmer bobathan:
It wasn't my suggestion but I like firefox more than dolphin hd because of firefox sync and it has several popular addons from the desktop version. It doesn't support flash (yet) so if you want flash use dolphin hd (I just use the default browser when I need flash).
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] turnedmyworld:
Haha i was thinking the exact same thing! Unless hes using it on a table and scanning items across the top. Like a grocery store checkout.

My 10

10 Apps I couldn't live without (but have, admittedly, in the past, before smartphones and tablets)

1.

RepliGo Reader

- I'm a grad student and read mountains of PDFs daily. This app has made my whole world different.

2.

Springpad

: Nothing can compare to it. It's free. It's versatile. It's simple with a lot of depth.

3. Drobox (and Titanium Media Sync - together they're great). Whole semester sync'd between my desktop, laptop, and tablet. I don't even take the laptop out anymore!

4. Business Calendar (hands down my favorite calendar app - both for the app and the widget). Stunning.

5. FeedR: people will disagree and I don't care. This is a great feed reader. The layout of the articles makes sense. The widget is phenomenal to have, and not annoying like some others.

6. Aldiko Ebook Reader - Great ebook reader. That's all.

7. mNote - One App that does 1 thing really well - minimalistic cloud text notes. Nice little reminders.

8. Titanium Backup (a swiss army knife for you tablet if used right).

9. QuickOffice: Thank you quick office working directly with and through dropbox, google docs, and my local folders.

I'm never not able to reach my stuff quickly or save my notes some place where I need them.

10. WinAmp (It really whips the llama's ass). You sync with winamp on my PC. I forgot about winamp. Still a great media player!!

Honorable Mentions:

* Miren Browser

* Skyfire Browser

* Just Pictures

* Rock media player

* Firefox Browser

* MobileNoterSE: Because I still need my onenote notebooks even in absence of my laptop for clinical outcome measures, reminders, and notes. Onenote is a powerhouse application. This is only on the list because there isn't anything else that reads my onenotes on a tablet.

I admittedly am not very consistent with my browsers. Miren is my fav, but sometimes firefox or skyfire just do something better. Didn't like dolphin for all the bells and whistles. Opera and OperaMini didn't do it for me either.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] txntv:
Thought Words with Friends looked weird on the gTab. Surprised Firefox on a few folks' lists. It felt tedious to use.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] racketier:
Firefox will be great with a few updates. It's a little slow right now (especially to load up)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] stilgar27:
Top 10

No particular order.... except maybe the first 3

1. Gameboid (Lite) - unfair since it's really just access to every GBA game ever made.

2. Amazon Mp3 - decent local mp3 player with 5 gb free cloud space. Plays from any browser, has a nice widget, and you can download the songs back down from the cloud. Totally replaced Pandora for me.

3. Amazon Market - Free paid app every day, most are crap but the price is right.

4. Wiimote Controller (Lite) - set a wiimote as your input method, works great in emulators.

5. Pulse - Great layout for a news reader, pick from a ton of feeds.

6. Dropwords (free) - 1 part bejeweled, 1 part scrabble

7. Swiftkey (paid version free from amazon) - My favorite keyboard thus far. Good size, with long-press characters and voice input key.

8. Widgetsoid (lite) - Make custom widgets out of virtually anything; your apps or a good selection of functions. Can access hard to find like "auto-brightness"

9. CoolReader - My favourite (non-pdf) book reader so far.

10. File Expert - fast and intuitive file browser with a many features including (SMB) network support and bookmarks.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] GadgetBoySI:
I have only been using gTab for a few days, but I do have an HTC Evo, so I immediately installed some of the same apps.

Kudos to Evernote. I became a huge Evernote user when they first launched and loved it when they introduced their Android app. Since its initial release they have really improved the mobile version. Having access to my documents is great, as well as being able to easily add a note. As an example, I keep recipes stored in a folder and with the gTab I am able to easily open a recipe when I need it.

Angry Birds... I was a junkie with this game on the Evo. After playing it on the gTab, I now may have to find a 12 step program for my addiction.

I currently use Homeseer for Home Automation (still a noob, so I can't post a lin - Google it and you will see). They have an Android app, so it will be interesting to see how I will be able to incorporate the gTab into my lighting functions.

Looking for a nice eReader. It looks like I will be testing Aldiko, since I have seen some nice reviews for it.

I also need a nice RSS reader. I use Google Reader to subscribe to feeds, so whatever reader I decide on will have to interface accordingly.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] farmer bobathan:
I really like feedly as an rss reader, it organizes all of your google reader feeds into a magazine like format.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] GadgetBoySI:
Ya know, I've used Feedly's website before from my netbook. Never thought about trying it on the gTab. How does the page render?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] GadgetBoySI:
Installed - Feedly is cool.

Thanks.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] GTO777:
In no particular order:

1. Dropbox - Transfering files.

2. Dungeon Defenders - Great game.

3. Metamorph - Helps with theming.

4. Dolphin Mini - Great Browser.

5. Citrix - Used to access windows programs for work/school.

6. Pulse - RSS.

7. UPnPlay - For streaming movies from my server w/ tversity.

8. Titanium backup - Backups

9. Tweetcaster - News kinda

Feedly looks pretty cool.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] cgrucelski:
My list

I'm sure this list will change over time, but at the moment, these are my top ten apps, in no particular order:

1) Touchdown - I use my GTablet to check my corporate exchange account. Although it's a paid app, I think it's the best available in terms of exchange server mail, calendar and contact integration.

2) Amazon Kindle - I love reading books on my GTablet as compared to my tiny little HTC Aria phone!

3) ES File Explorer - I like the ease of use and ability display local device folders, network folders and FTP folders.

4) Dropbox - If I had to list a #1 application across all of my platforms (PC, phone, tablet, web), it would likely be Dropbox. I use it daily for file and media synchronization.

5) PocketCloud - I also use '2X Client', but if I had to choose between the two, it would probably be PocketCloud. These apps are great for connecting via remote desktop to my various PCs.

6) QuickOfficeHD - Solid choice for viewing and editing native MS Office documents.

7) Titanium Backup - I love this tool for backing up and managing my apps.

8) MLB AtBatt 11 - Paid app, but I love my Phillies and being able to listen to audio and watch video highlights is great.

9) DoubleTwist + AirSync - Media player that synchronizes media via WiFi.

10) Tweetdeck - Good combined view of many of my social media accounts. However, I do wish it was optimized for tablets and could be used in landscape orientation, as on the PC.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] fuckausername:
get swiftkey!

Im running the g harmony rom and ff doesnt work for ****, but im very happy running dolphin hd on the desktop user agent.

Favorite keyboard: skwiftkey beta (sign up for vip, its free)

Favorite reader: Pulse

The honeycomb music player is out there (just google). Its nothing fancy, but a nice upgrade.

ColorNote is handy, and the weatherbug elite widget is pretty sweet too (was free in amazon appstore recently :cool:)

A lot of tablet specific apps are honeycomb only unfortunately
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Gary_O:
QuickOffice version choice

I've been using QuickOffice Pro 4.0 on my gTablet, and not the HD version. Per the specs on QuickOffice Pro HD, it indicates it requires Android 3.0. Are you running Android 3.0 (i.e., Honeycomb) on your gTablet?

The non-HD version was $7.99 and the HD version was $14.99, so that combined with the Honeycomb spec for HD steered me toward the regular non-HD version.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] cgrucelski:
@Gary_O: Good catch. It is not the HD version... only the standard version. My apologies for the confusion.

My gTablet was in use at the time (wife and kids love the Angry Birds games), so I did my app search of the market via PC and web browser, searching for the apps I knew I had on my device. When I pulled up QuickOffice, I must confess that I wrote the first one down without even paying attention to the version.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jdriskill:
I am very surprised that no one has mentioned Subsonic. Hands down my favorite app on the gtab. All of my music and videos are always available to stream without having to recode the video. You can even download video and music to the tab for offline vieviewing/listening.

also:

feedly

firefox (synching is awesome)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] brown14you:
Here are my top 10 in no particular order:

1. Simi Clock Widget: Apart from serving as a minimalist clock, it can also display weather and battery life and serve as a quick launcher for your favorite apps.

2. Jorte Calendar: Optimized for tablets with a nice widget.

3. WordFeud: Despite not being optimized for a 10 inch tablet, it is a well made game and I am addicted too it. :)

4. Dropbox and Soonr: Easy file transfer and sharing.

5. ES Explorer: File management.

6. Google Apps: Listen, Gmail, Maps, Reader, Voice, Talk

7. Engadget: Tech news

8. Evernote

9. Medical Apps: Epocrates, Skyscape, Lexicomp: Drug databases

10. Wallswitch: Automatic wallpaper switcher.

For browsers: Stock browser, Miren Browser, Inbrowser(for anonymous browsing )

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Gary_O:
My current top 10 apps running on the gTablet (in alphabetical order)

Astro - stellar file manager and utilities

Dolphin Browser HD - fav Android browser

Dropbox - essential for transferring files cross-platform

gReader Pro - RSS reader, syncs with Google Reader, great for offline reading

InstaFetch Lite - offline reading for saved InstaPaper web content

Plume - excellent Twitter client, great in portrait mode, great for offline reading

SBM (SketchBook Mobile) - surprisingly full-featured drawing program from Autodesk

Seesmic - super Facebook client, clear and efficient intuitive, great for offline reading

Springpad - cross-platform sharing and organization of bookmarks, notes, checklists

Titanium Backup PRO - essential and efficient backup/restore of apps and settings

Since the gTablet is WiFi and not 3G, and I have a long train commute each day, apps that reliably and efficiently provide offline data and syncing are key for me to able to use the gTablet when off the wireless grid.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] edirector:
Pissy android app of him peeing on apple. It always gives me a good laugh. Lol
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] edirector:
Tweecaster where I can hit twitter and faceook with content the same time.

Love the live wall papers

Superbox a 10 in one utility

App lock pro which allows me lock down anything I choose individually

Launcherpro plus the calendar widget is nice

docs to go

Photoshop mobile

kindle

Qqplayer which will play any type of video even wmv

YouTube downloader

opinion launcher pro icons which allowed me to custom change icons to any and every color of the rainbow
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sdnick484:
Since quite a few of my favorite apps haven't been mentioned thus far:

1. MPDroid - MPD (Music Player Daemon) Client

2. ConnectBot - SSH Client

3. andFTP - (S)FTP/SCP Client

4. aMedia Control - UPNP/DLNA Control Point & Client (I use it to stream video)

5. 2Player DLNA Music Player - UPNP/DLNA Client (I use it to stream music)

6. VLC Remote - VideoLAN Client remote to control a PC running VLC

7. Wifi Analyzer - Shows signal strength/channel of available WiFi signals.

8. Terminal Emulator - Terminal for the gTab itself

9. Slashdot Reader - RSS Reader for /.

10. AndroZip - File manager with compression capabilities
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
One app that every gTab owner should have (one their phone) is a wireless tethering app that allows the phone to be used as a wifi hotspot for the gTab to connect to when there is no other wifi access point available. Some carriers offer that option from the factory on the phone but they usually charge an extra fee for it and usually have a monthly limit on it as well.

I have a rooted Droid X and have used both Wireless Tether and Barnacle WiFi Tether to share the unlimited 3G connection from the phone to my gTab without incurring the extra monthly charge.

Thought this was worth posting as I am sure a lot of gTab users carry android phones and would like to have wifi available to them on the go.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sdnick484:
I was never able to get Barnacle to work on my rooted Droid Eris, but the "Wireless Tether for Root Users" app also in the Market works fine.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ntnunk:
Thanks for some great app ideas! 2 questions though:

Did you find Springpad in the market? It isn't showing up for me.

Which white board app do you use? There are a ton of them it seems.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Gary_O:
I also had a problem finding Springpad in the Market (using the gTablet). Did find it on the Amazon App store.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ntnunk:
D'oh!! Why didn't I think of that? Thanks for the tip!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] chadferis:
I can't get firefox to load, I'm running Vegan and it won't show up in app market. Any suggestions?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] bso44:
Why have both? Does Barnacle offer something that Wireless Tether doesn't?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] TheQuicksilver:
Okay, I'll bite.

ConnectBot: Good for SSH stuff when I need to remote admin a server

TitaniumBackup: obvious

Adobe Reader: not sure what other PDF readers have over this one.

Aldiko: Nicely flexible eBook reader, supports most formats (including PDF)

arcMedia Player: multimedia player

Analytics Widget: Pull basic Google Analytics stats onto your homescreen (I'm a web dev by trade)

Dice Bag: Must have for any tabletop RPG players

Dropbox: obvious. Also great for bypassing thumbdrives for getting files between PCs and the tablet

Evernote: The Dropbox of information saving

EverPaper: InstaPaper reader

IM+: Instant messaging

Nesoid: NES emulator. 760+ games available and takes up only a few MB of space. Plus the controls are simple to manage on a touch device (as opposed to SNES)

TripIt: Manage travel documentation (good if you're on the go a lot)

Yaaic: IRC client

Wifi Analyzer: Nice especially if you're interested in seeing the best open channels to set up your home network on.

Pulse: As mentioned, great news/RSS reader. Keeps getting better with every update.

That's more than 10. Deal with it.

EDIT: Almost forgot, I also switched to the...

Samsung Galaxy Tab Email Client: I wasn't happy with the default client. This gave me threaded emails and a unified inbox. K-9 was okay, but didn't do conversation threading.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
It seems the last Wireless Tether update I got would drop the wifi connection about every ten minutes no matter what settings I set for it on my phone. It would reconnect automatically when I would try and access the internet (would take a few seconds) but it was annoying.

Barnacle Wireless Tether (according to the log) would reestablish connection each time the connection was dropped so that I would never notice the connection was dropped at any time.

What a novel idea...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] trscons:
Lots of good ideas in this thread. Thanks to all. I won't duplicate what already has been said, but I didn't see these two mentioned above.

Teamviewer 6 - enables remote controlling the PC (Win, Mac, Linux) from the tablet. Pretty cool for me.

TuneIn Radio - best of breed in the various streaming radio apps. This app has hundreds of choices, but you may want some of the stations found only on iheart radio's app.

Hope this helps.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
I've commented in another thread about TeamViewer. It's nice but it's only free for personal use. If you use it to access work computers then legally/ethically you will have to purchase a license which costs $749.

I use LogMeIn Ignition which was only $29 when I bought it.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
It's useful for reading QR Codes of apps in the Market or other 3D barcodes to get to a website URL on your gTab.

Multi Picture Live Wallpaper is a great wallpaper tool,and it was the easiest way to make my pictures look good inthe background.
