I was wondering if anyone knows a way to get minecraft FULLY working on the atrix. I have kind of a water downed version (no night, no crafting). It was announced that is it coming later this year, I just didnt know if there was away already
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] paravorheim:
full ubuntu, then java?

I haven't tried this, so take it with a grain of salt.

You could try making a full debian image, then installing java through apt-get, and then running the linux jar of minecraft. I'm sure that it won't be that easy, but it would be a good place to start.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] KefkaticFanatic:
They're going to develop it for Android, but it will initially only launch on the Xperia Play.

Wait until next week (E3) for more details I'm assuming.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Magoodigan:
But will it ever be released on the Atrix and other phones?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] hotweels258:
Yes. I believe Notch said that it would only be a temporary period of exclusivity.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] INSM Sin:
I'm assuming that they will release an official Minecraft for other devices sometime around the time that the full game is released.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mythico:
I was wondering if anyone is aware of any World Building Apps for the Xoom. Preferably one that I could sync with an application on my PC, but it isn't required.

My specific use would be for creating a world for a story I am writing. Although I could think of a few other uses as well :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] tbayne:
@Mythico: I know it may be obvious to you, but most of us have no idea what game/system you are talking about.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] slaino:
World builder as in Minecraft I guess.

I never heard of any, though.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mythico:
I am actually not refering to any game/system. I am looking for a generic world builder. I am writing a story for a book and would like to find some tool to assist/layout the world I am creating.

If there isn't a generic one then I am fine using that is designed for a specific game even though I have no intentions of using it for said game. It doesn't need to be to detailed. I am more using it for a rough sketch/reference point.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Albino Eatpod:
Do you have an example of the type of software you're referring to on another platform?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] drhill:
First thing I thought when I saw the title was how much I want SimCity on this tablet.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mythico:
Unfortunatly I don't have any example as I have had troubles finding something for my PC/Mac. I mean I could technicially could use paint, but would prefer something a tad more complex then that :)

It doesn't need to show elevations or be 3d or anything like that. Although if it is something complex it is welcomed. I just want something to be able to tell this is where a house,castle,mountains,or forest is. So that I try and rough idea of the layout of the world. That and so I don't send a character into a forest that doesn't exist.

Sim City on the Xoom would be pretty awesome.

Minecraft. It won't work on your Xoom, but it will on your PC.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] FloatingFatMan:
I've never heard or seen of such a thing, and as a prolific amature writer, I've never considered the need for such a thing either. I either visualise my fictional world in my head, or I make notes.

Try pen and paper. Sometimes, technology gets in the way, y'know?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
minecraft is supposed to be coming to android soonish.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mythico:
I have thought about that but would seem quite tedious to use for that purpose

It is what I do now. I normally just make a mental note or if need be a physical note somewhere. It just got me wondering if there was an application that could allow you to layout everything. Sounds like I may be stuck the old fashion way. Plus as you said sometimes it can get in the way hehe

[Xoom Themes and Apps] imbonez9:
what tha **** is this guy talking about?! First we figured one out in Sim City now he says thats wrong because he is writing a book but doesn't know how to because he can't write it with a world app, that both doesn't exist on Android or PC/Mac.

Here's a hint, you want to create a world that you can't write with a paper n pen take up drugs. Closest thing to you making sense.

You could try Mine Builder It is like minecraft, but building only.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mythico:
What is with all the hate seriously. First I didn't say I couldn't write it with pen/paper. I am just looking a tool to assist and help when needing a quick visual reference. I will just stick to pen and paper, was just curious if such an app existed on the android market.

Everyone Else - Thanks for the help guys. It looks like good ol' Pen and Paper for me. Its been working so far, so why fix it if it isn't broken right? :)

[Xoom Themes and Apps] burden010:
I don;t know of any app but as an amateur fantasy writer I can definitely see where this would come in handy. Sometimes I'll be out (train to work or whatever) and I'll have an idea. Sure I can refer to my notes (which are generally with me anyway) but how much easier would it be if I could whip out the Xoom and see the world in 2/3D?

Definite awesome idea. Wish I had the ability to write this app!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Stotherd:
Minecraft might not be so bad an idea... I hear Notch may be adding the ability to build the world, rather than entirely random generation. Theres mods out there too that can add random villages/towns/cities, and maps. You can view the maps on your xoom if you set it up as a server, using a mod...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] EwanG:
Blender would be great for this if someone made the port to Android. There are other programs out there for Windows, but none I would expect to see on Android at least until the Quad Cores come out.

Sketchup is another possibility since it is a Google property, but not sure it is being actively developed any longer.

FWIW,

Without Speedmod kernel

Correct me If I am wrong.

Iused this method which is mentioned below. I haven`t used speedmod kernel here. It worked well. Written below is from my post.

Easiest way to start is by installing EZbase ROM, which is rooted.

1. As mentioned in this page, http://www.theandroidsoul.com/cyanogenmod-7-cm7-samsung-galaxy-s/

check you are Case I, Case II, or Case III. Install EzBase ROM, which is 2.2.1 and rooted and CWM 2.* will be installed. http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-ezrom-for-android-2-2-install-revert-back/

Do not install CM7 as explained in it. It is outdated.

2. Easier to flash using the second method as mentioned here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Flashing_CyanogenMod

Download latest CM7 nightly for SGS.No Stable/RC/Beta available till today) You will also get efs folder backed up, CWM 3.1.*

3. Download Gapps for CM7 (Not included due to licensing.) You need that for Android market Access, and other google applications.

It can directly install your market apps for your google market account, if you ticking the boxes.

4. Download ROM manager from Market and use it for backing up your data. Premium version help to check and dowload latest update or you can it manually.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] lekofraggle:
Since we now have an experimental USB Host app...

I just saw the second request for this so I thought I would post it here where people could find it easier if they so desired.

If any of you use a Nook and a DSLR, this may be the app for you. I found it on DPreview. It is early in its development, but works with my 50d.

http://www.anthonymandra.com/RawDroid/.

What it does is convert RAW images into jpeg previews. These are high res. so they will take a lot of space.

Note, you cannot browse to a file and try to decode it, you must go to a folder. The process for using this to transfer photos is large right now, and the workflow for doing in the field work even larger. One goal of mine this summer is to streamline the workflow, but it is possible.

Now it looks like there really is no reason to buy an iPad.

Have fun,

Leko
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Divine_Madcat:
Funny, i was looking at this today, for the same reason you were. My big question, is what RAW formats are supported? I did some quick looking, but didn't actually see a list anywhere...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] lekofraggle:
I know for a fact that cr2 (Canon) is supported. I also think nef (Nikon) is as well. Apparently, it does not do too well with Minolta files. However, Sigma is good.

I am not sure about the fuji or pentax ones. He is trying to support all of them, and I think his model is dcraw, but I am not sure. Just a guess. My best advice is grab it and try it. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you too.

~Leko
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Divine_Madcat:
Cant say i am horribly impressed with the program so far. The website has NO documentation, and i have no idea if it is doing what i want it to.

I have a test file in a specific folder, and i click it and tell it to decode files in this folder. I see the thumbs, and i can click on them to get a bigger image. But i cannot zoom the image, nor do i see any JPGs in the folder when i check with root explorer. Perhaps it doesn't like Sony Raws (not Minolta)? I wouldn't know, because the author has **0** documentation...

EDIT: and this time, a 1/4 res JPG showed up... no clue what i did different. Again, there is no documentation or anything....
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RcketScientist:
I feel you frustrations in the initial release. Keep in mind this was not intended for public consumption. My goal was to get the functionality in place, queue some interest, and utilize some desperate android folks as testing guinea pigs.

I now have much of the functionality in place and put it on the market. The interface is greatly improved, and shortly will be fully automatic. Many of your complaints are already implemented/fixed.

I invested every moment of my free time to pull this off in the state it's in. Since I was changing everything rapidly, documentation would be a redundant effort I couldn't afford until now. I will be sprucing up the website, documenting the program, and offering a camera model self report page shortly.

You should check out the market version which is much more straightforward now.

(Also the 1/4 res thumbnail is what is stored in your raw type, I can do full decodes, but currently it's much too slow so I haven't released it yet)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Divine_Madcat:
RcketScientist - Thank you for your info, and taking the time to comment. I think i was a bit too harsh (that way was particularly stressful), and i should have been a bit more lax. As it is, I know it is not easy to start on something like this from scratch, so i do applaud your efforts. The 1/4 size previews, while not perfect, are admittedly a good start, and hopefully full decodes will come (speed isn't an issue, if we have the ability to select per file).

Please accept my apology - i continue to look forward to your updates. :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RcketScientist:
No problem, when I said I felt your frustrations I really did. The makeshift interface was driving me nuts too.

As it stands for the full decode I was going to have that done at the full view stage (menu>decode). That way the lucky folks (canon/nikon) whom have high quality thumbs don't have to wait if the thumb suffices. I'll follow that up with a preferences suite that will allow you to force a full decode with each full view.

When I said the full decodes were slow I meant really slow. I've seen some very fast but I've also seen inexplicable 15 secondish decodes. Until I can make it more reliable or at least understand the delay and throw in a progress indicator it's a liability to release.

The full decodes are also a lot more unwieldy (70+ MB for my 5dmii) and the built in android stuff is having trouble loading with them at the moment.

I'm about to move across country so things will slow down, but by mid July I should be settled and able to devote more time to finishing this up.

Samsung GX10 DNGs processed

Just a quick note: I had no problems decoding DNG files from the Samsung GX10 (sibling to the Pentax K10D) on the Nook Color w/ CM 7.0.3 & dalingrin's kernel.

I pushed 100 files through it with small embedded Jpgs and two at full 10mpix and all went well.

Keep up the good work - looking forward to your next versions!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
If I were going to do this I would just do raw+ jpeg.. Converting on the nook seems a little silly.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Alwar:
Hi RcketScientist, I really appriciate your effort with the RAW decoding, I know it is not an easy task. We are working some time on porting dcraw library (probably as you do) to Android, so maybe I could give you some advice.

I don't think it's silly idea. Imagine if photographers could import photographs to tablet on site, present them to a customer and make selection with some editing. At home, they would synchronize the photos with Lightroom, for example. We talked to some professional photographers and they confirmed that it would be very helpful.

But if you want to do full-decoding, be prepared for hard coding and optimizing to make it work fast. I suggest to focus and optimize it only for dual-core devices, especially with Tegra processor, which has really good performance for this purpose.

Also, if you want to view the image, you should't write it to SD card, but keep the data in RAM. Reading/writing operations are quite slow and you can't optimize them much.

Now, we can decode the image to view on screen in about 3-6 seconds on Asus transformer, but we'd like to make it a little faster.

We plan to release some demo application in few weeks. The first final release is planned for the September / October and there will be functions like importing directly from camera, viewing and editing images, full decoding, synchronizing with Lightroom (with XMP files).

I will post the demo as soon as we finish it, and I will appreciate your opinions for new functions and features.

Sorry if this topic has already been brought up but has anyone thought about the ability to improve our camera and camera recording quality?

I mean the camera is pretty good and takes decent pictures and also records pretty ok, but there's always room for improvement ;)

Maybe some codecs swaps here and there or increasing the jpeg compression or something. I'm no expert in these areas but I thought it may be something for the skilled dev's to be interested in and of course we all can be test bunnies.

Hope alot of you get into this, let's make the most of out glorius Acer Iconia! And put other tabs to shame! Hear Hear!

[Acer Iconia A500] mmanea2002:
I was trying to do some pictures and the camera is out of focus.

When you press the shutter icon the camera is doing the focus, you can see that is passing through a position where the picture is really sharp and crispy but unfortunately isc not stopping there.

I was trying different applications from the market without success.

Looks that is a software problem.

Do not forget that Acer has not too much experience with digital photography.

In comparison the photos taken with my Omnia 2 phone (also a 5M camera if I remember corectly) are super duper.

Let's hope that Acer will correct this issue in the next updates/upgrades
[Acer Iconia A500] peejayw:
Same results, must be a software issue, shutter activation not synched with focus lock properly resulting in blurry, soft images.
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
I didnt think of that at all but yes its true.

But the next update is for Honeycomb Android UI only 3.0 to 3.1

But there must be someone that be creative about this and create a modd of some kind.
[Acer Iconia A500] peejayw:
There is definately a software issue here, try this............

Take a shot on autofocus and then change focus setting to infinity and take the same shot.

On auto, the shot will be blurry, on infinity it will be sharp.

Dont think this is a HC issue, something Acer has to fix.
[Acer Iconia A500] theheathen:
Not sure if you guys know this or not, but you need to hold the button until it focuses completely. If you just tap the button it will take a blurry pic. It was pissing me off to no end until I relized that lol.
[Acer Iconia A500] swaggerjacker:
Great find! I didn't know this.
[Acer Iconia A500] lord_voldemort666:
I hold the button, and it'll do its focus thing, but it still goes past being clear and in focus and to blurry. Its definitely a software Issue I feel. It CAN focus and I see it in focus, but it goes right back to being blurry before I unpress the button. :-\
[Acer Iconia A500] mmanea2002:
Is matter of camera driver I think, I've tried with other free apps from the market but no improvments.

I did not bought FXCamera, only in pay version is supporting 5M camera so I can not be 100% sure that is the camera driver or Acer camera app.

Did anybody used the FXCamera full version?
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
My point exactly its acer that has to fix the camera.

Thanks for the infinity thing, spread the Acer minions!
[Acer Iconia A500] robcox:
I was very frustrated with my A500's camera until I read heathen's post. Thanks! I hadn't thought of holding the button down, but when I do it definitely autofocuses to a sharp image. Then I release the button and get a perfect shot. I'm using Android 3.2 so perhaps Acer did do some kind of fix. As others noted, the shutter still fires before the camera has focussed if I simply press the button and release. (Is this a feature or a bug? ;)) What's the point of having the button operate in 2 modes?
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
This hold and focus feature is also on my android phone android 2.2.so its the same.my Iconia takes great pictures.just holding still is the key.

Videos are not so good.

But i have a awesome Nikon digital camera for real pics.
[Acer Iconia A500] peejayw:
Under 3.01 and 3.1 when you held down the shutter there was a beep when focus locked. This does not seem to happen under 3.2 but it seems that you don't have to hold down the shutter any more, and I get proper focus with a simple shutter press.
