Holy crap does it work flawlessly. That is kinda pathetic for the Tegra 2 that our phones can play their games effortlessly with a hacked opengl driver. I thought the games would at least be chugging a little bit, but they are perfect. At least Samurai II: Vengeance is.

About to try Monster Madness.

Edit: Monster Madness does not work.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Agreed! Although, this shouldn't be shocking. The reason why these games are meant for dual-core is because of the CPU usage these games use, and their ability to drain the battery pretty quickly if you play for a decent amount of time. Our phones do run the games well, however it does take up a lot of CPU usage, which is why Dual-core is more efficient since it can balance the memory between each processor without stressing either one.

But, does that really matter if you're home or at work next to a charger trying to find a way to pass some time? Of course not. Which is why this is amazing. :)

Chainfire is a god. Almost makes me want to find out what phone he has and switch to that. He just singlehandedly saved Android a HUGE amount of fragmentation. Seeing developers make games and apps that could only run on a specific hardware setup was worrying to me more than any other sort of fragmentation.

i figured everything out...i started over by restoring my nandroid backup...im running urbanlegend rom and i think it already has journaling on (im not sure and I don't know how to check if its on or not)...everything I flashed the zip for the "journaling on", my phone bootlooped...so i restored my old backup and just ran the app and everything works perfectly now...the chainfire app will works now and i am currently playing samurai ( a bit repetitive but a great game)

EDIT...@marcusan i think this chainfire guy might have solved the android gaming issue also (hopefully)...being able to play games for different processers is awesome and i hope our galaxy s can keep up with the new processers and games that come out next year

On Syndicate 1.1.1 with journaling on. non of the tegra 2 games show either on the market or from the tegra zone app "get it now" button. it just keeps saying "item not found". Any ideas? how you guys getting the games?
[Epic 4G General] tedlogan42:
Yeah, there are. I have a Gtablet (most of my XDA posts have been on that device, since I just switched from the Moment to the Epic), and both the Pinball HD and Riptide are very decent games, very enjoyable. Other than that, most of them are remakes of previous games for Tegra, so they're only slightly better than previous ones.
[Epic 4G General] tedlogan42:
This was a recent change. They originally released it for 3.0, then moved it back to 2.2 as a requirement so people with Gtablets/Adams could buy it. I bought it after release, and it was so buggy I returned it during the 15 minutes.

I think they pulled it because of the negative reviews that were piling up. They shouldn't have rushed it.

I'm on SRF 1.1.1 and after backing up I tried this with journaling off just to see if it works. I'm running fine so far with no problems. What does the jourinaling on specifically do that helps this? Great find BTW!
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
It doesn't. When you install it though it hard reboots your phone, which could lead to corruption issues and force closes if you aren't journalled.

If you use Titanium Backup...in the settings there a Market Doctor option. This will link all your apps with the Market for updates. Basically telling the Market...Hey I have these apps and need to look for updates.

You shouldn't have to install su. If I were you I'd run through the root process again, and I mean redownload the files again and check for proper adb & driver setup.

What do you guys use for books and magazines?

nook, kindle, google books, zinio seem to all have different books or magazines.

Do I really need to buy a book or magazine from each one and then remember which one I used to purchase that specific book?

Is there an app that will let me catalog all my books and magazines from all these services together?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] blue13x:
Kindle all the way. Comixology for comics.

I think it's also a matter of buying from one seervice and sticking to it. Now that I have a full library from on Kindle, there is no reason to go to Nook.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] jrezin:
that's exactly their plan...

no non-standard fileformat for me, vendor lock-in only hurts the costumer!

for comics/mangas you can use Komik, Mango or on of those stores like Comixology as there not an official file format for these things...

but for books, you can use epub files (the standard) with several programs, mainly Aldiko and Nook (that supports some kind of side loading too). Aldiko currently does pdf files too, (that can be used for comics, magazines, almost anything...) but there are several other options too.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
ezPDF Reader for most and Google books for everything else(mainly bc I love the 3d view/although I would love a bookcase.)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] AFAngryWarrior:
Its the opposite here. For me its Nook al the way. I started with the Nook color rooted, fell in love with having an Android tablet so I sold it and bought the Xoom. Until recently I really missed having the nook because I was subscribed to all my favorite mags and newspapers. Luckily the last nook app update allows us now to have those back. Nook has more features that I enjoy like books that read themselves to my children while helping them learn to read, etc. I'm Pro Nook!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] rschenck:
Magazines - ezPDF Reader

Comics - Comixology or Komiks

Books - Moon+ Reader

I also have Kindle installed for when I am in the mood to purchase something from Amazon. However I usually prefer to use the free libraries included with Moon+ or buy new ebooks from some of the smaller online stores that really need the support.

As for Comics, I use Comixology for new stuff and Komiks for my collection. I really wish Comixology would carry Marvel comics as well (or create a seperete Marvel app), as it does on the iPad.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] blue13x:
Well the Nook is about the only platform that can match the kindle, both are good.

But to me, the reading experience on a tablet is not as good as on a dedicated device with eInk
[Xoom Themes and Apps] blue13x:
A plus of the kindle is that you buy once and read on everything you can think of.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] trauma_junkie:
I use Moon+Reader simply because I have a sony ereader and just transfered all my epub files over and I don't have to do anything with them. It has a nice bookshelf and a night time or day time screen.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
Nook for books and magazines

Reason - Nook is the only app i've seen that lets me side load epub files, has a cool page animation, has dual page viewing, and has the correct fonts. Meaning, when Tucker Max is yelling through his blow horn, the book displyas the font bigger and bolder than the standard font. Nook is the only app i've seen that actually does this.

Mango for Manga

Reason - Streaming and downloading of literally any manga you can think of. It's absolutely amazing.

Perfect Viewer for Comics

Reason - Great library view, fast, reads every comic format, page filtering options, dual page view, quick buttons...on and on and on, it's really an incredible app.

Is there a way to install an apk as a system app? I want to 'unroot' a device but still run an app that requires root access. I'm unsure of how this can be done, any advise would be very much appreciated!

Thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EL TEJANO:
I know that the Z4 root app has an option for temp root functions which goes back to an unrooted state once you reboot.

My guess is that you can run that, place your apk in the appropriate system folder, install the apk from there & then reboot.

But again I'm not to sure if temp root functions work on our G-Tabs & if it does if it's as simple as I explained. Worth a try I guess.

Again I'm assuming that your not already in a permanent root state. If so then you'll have to unroot completely first & then try what I mentioned above.

Unless someone has an easier method?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjakecali:
convert user apps to system apps

Titanium Backup Pro (paid version 3.8.1 and higher) has a function that allows one to convert user apps-->system apps (as well as system app-->user app ... though this sometimes causes initial FCs, which generally disappear with reboot).

Not sure if the effect will remain after unrooting.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcnano:
Just to clear up a bit, not because an app its on /system it will have root access. If you want to run an app that needs root, you need root, thats it. You cant unroot and use the app after that.

So, no you cant do that. Its 2 different things installing an app on /system than having root for an app.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EL TEJANO:
So then how do proprietary apps like Sprint Nascar (as an example) run on an unrooted phone?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcnano:
Why would Sprint Nascar need root permision?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EL TEJANO:
It probably doesn't or it might I have no idea. The op never pointed out which apps he wants to use.

However & this is a big however, as I have no idea which apps require root access, one has to assume that any of the preinstalled apps that come on our G-Tabs do in fact need root access, yet they can run on an unrooted device. Again I could be wrong.

That being said, how does one go about determining which apps require root access?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikt:
Thanks for the replies guys. The issue is supporting proxy servers on unrooted devices. There are several proxy apps that require root access as well as a kernel that supports proxy. If the proxy app were installed as a system app, would this have enough rights to access the kernel as required? I don't know enough about this but was led to believe this might work if it was running as system. Same for apps that use CIFS, like mount manager. I guess I'll give it a try and see what happens...!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmcnano:
Like I said, being installed on System doesnt have anything to do with having root or not.

Im 95% sure about what I am saying.

edit: I confirmed it..so 100% sure, if the app needs root, you will need root no matter where the app is installed.
