[Atrix 4G General] Rred:
Darrell, you and mgamerz just don't seem to grasp the point.

And you need to understand, Google sometimes sucks at documentation. There's even an Android applet that uses a GVoice API to place--initiate--Gvoice calls from the Androids, the same way you'd place them from a computer. Google HAS TO DENY BEING A PHONE SERVICE because phone services are taxed and regulated very heavily, in contrast to DATA SERVICES which are not. Google may have very cleverly denied being a "phone service" because that would put them under FCC regulation and implemented heavy costs.

Deny it all you please, but once you enable GVoice dialing via WiFi on your phone? You can use the phone without using any cellular services. By all means, keep refusing to try this, keep denying it, keep spending your cellular airtime when you don't have to.

"Wow at the lies.

Take your sim card out, you wont be able to make calls."

Well DUH, many phones these days are locked if there's no SIM card in them. That's got nothing to do with the normal use of the phone, and the SIM card WILL be in the phone all the time for most of us. What I said is that you can use GVoice from these phones, the same way that T-Mob will allow you to use WiFi instead of cellular time.

And of course, the GVoice WiFi alternative works perfectly well on other carriers, where there's no SIM card at all, just an Android phone with WiFi and calling functions enabled. Will your phone have calling functions enabled if there's no service? Maybe, maybe not. That's a programming issue, and if you've ever seen the message "SOS Emergency Service Only" along with zero bars and zero signal on your AT&T phone, you'll understand that "no service" doesn't mean "no calling" either.

The question was, and is, whether you can make VOIP calls over the Wifi connection without using cellular service. Not whether you can use a cell phone as a "wireless"home phone.

As Galileo said, "Nevertheless it turns!"

I use my Atrix every day as a VOIP WiFi connected phone, without using any cellular services. Does the phone need to have a cellular service available before it will work--at all? I wouldn't think so. I'm not using the cellular services, I'm just asking the phone to make a WiFi connection, and it can do that without cell service.

Why don't you complain that you can't use GVoice when there's no battery in the phone? Accept that what is possible, is possible. If it isn't universal enough for what you want, tfb. It still extends the use options for the phone, and does so without incurring any cellular charges.

Of course, if you're dumb enough to select "dial with Google Voice" while you've got no WiFi connection...sure, that's gonna burn data. No one said to do that.
[Atrix 4G General] Mgamerz:
I use that option stupid. Guess what? I don't use data. Quit being stupid or show us the proof.

Sim lock: can't use any sim other than at&t

Your intelligence shines like mud in a cave

Emergency calls are required to be allowed on any carrier even if service is suspended. Its a law.

Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G on the network with the most backhaul, whatever that is. This post might have errors as I hate touchscreen keyboards.
[Atrix 4G General] :
You said all that and proved nothing. As I stated before, the fact is if you have no cell coverage, you cannot make calls with GV (alone) over wifi. So when I'm in a basement with no att coverage and full wifi, I cannot place calls via Google Voice. This was my original statement, and is the truth. I encourage (and look forward to) you post a video proving me wrong. You wont, and you cant; because its not possible. Typing five more paragraphs is only an indicator that you have no proof of what you say. I'm not arguing voip calls cant be placed over wifi WHEN YOU HAVE cell coverage, I know they can.

Without cell coverage from your service provider you WILL NOT be able to place calls over wifi via Google Voice alone. Again, please only respond with valid proof (a video).
[Atrix 4G General] :
btw, I make wifi calls via GV & GrooveIP on my Cap w/ no sim all the time. so your argument about the phone not working w/o a sim is also false.

[Atrix 4G General] Room7:

try calling a couple more times complaining about really bad signal when you're at home...

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] senji75:
Been looking on other forums for this, but to no avail...

Was looking for:

Pulse Reader

Team Coco

Lopez Tonight

and honestly, I just forgot to write them down... I was going to sideload them if I had too, but I thought about Appbrain ( which works ).

I cleared the market cache in settings and rebooted, still didn't work. Any ideas?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] adamsende:
I was about to start exactly the same thread. I can't install most of the popular apps on my Flyer. No Raging Thunder, no NFS Shift, no Dolphin Browser... It seems nothing is compatible with my device. Android web market says "This item is not compatible with your device HTC Flyer P512".

Anyone experiencing the same? I'm living in Turkey, is this happening because of a regional restriction?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] senji75:
I did a full wipe of the device and still noticed things missing afterwards in the market.

Appbrain (which is a great little app ) and Appbrain.com seem to have allowed me to get -most- of what I can't find in the market by searching. Wierd eh?

This is honestly not what I was expecting since I had the Xoom and wanted a smaller form factor to use daily. :(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ovigt71:
is not only your case....also here! I just have some saved application from the previous Galaxy Tab backup, and I installed. some are working, some not....but regarding Market, same story. Wait for root access, and then will be able to install Market Enabler, in order to fake our location.... ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] The Jones:
What software version is your flyer running? I have all those apps on my flyer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] LowFire82:
Thought that Market Enabler would only work with cell connected devices? And since ours is wifi only, it sees our source IP and blocks it?

edit: nevermind I see you have a 3G Flyer

I run into this problem as well on mine, so I just download on my DInc2, use Astro to backup and push it to a folder on my dropbox, and load from there....have done quite a few apps that way.

Convoluted, but it works ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] senji75:
Honestly, I am baffled the devs haven't rooted this yet. I didn't get the vibe that HTC products were difficult considering how fast root is achieved on HTC phones. Totally different I suppose?

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] adamsende:
Thanks for all the replies!

Hi, mine is 16 GB WiFi model.

Android version: 2.3.3

Software number: 1.36.1540.32

I can't find AppBrain app on the market either...

So this is not a technical limitation but a regional one. But why? I can't see the reason.

So we are out of luck? So disappointing.

Market says its incompatible. I wish I had installed all these apps two weeks ago when I was in San Diego.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] adamsende:
Most of the unavailable software are listed in HTC Likes app, but when I try to install, it says "The requested item could not be found".
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] IP IHI II IL:
Same goes for me. I can find the apps I'm looking for (mainly Google Voice) in appbrain, but when I try to install, the item cannot be found in the market, like when I search for them there... Really doesn't make any sense (pun intended). I can't get HTC likes to work for some reason, either... Different thread for that, though...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] adamsende:
Good news: some titles have started to appear on the market.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emerald181:
I've been searching for a long time and haven't been able to come up with anything. I'm basically looking for a way to display the screen on my nook color via DLNA to the PS3. I know its possible, because i already have the capability to stream video and music from my phone, and with imediashare i can stream from websites too (basically turns nook into a mini roku box without transcoding). Is there an app that replicates the hdmi out found on some phones, but over wifi? I don't want anything for the pc, nor do i want any way to control it remotely. I just want to stream my screen capture to either a PS3 or XBOX 360.

EDIT

I just found an app called Picme that has a live streaming functionality that could be used on the PS3. Unfortunately for me, it also serves to control the android phone remotely, so the FPS is extremely low. I'm looking for something like this that is only one way: phone to ps3 (like a fake HDMI output through DLNA)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disco180:
Did you try skifta?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emerald181:
Thanks for the reply. That app looks cool, but I don't want to just stream my media. I want to see EVERYTHING that is going on on my screen. Including games, app drawers, etc. I basically want to mirror the screen on my nook and stream it over dlna to a ps3 or xbox 360.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plisskenn:
I'm extremely interested in this as well. HELP!!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beliali:
Did you ever find out if or how that is possible? I can stream media to my ps3 just fine, but live sreen streaming is eluding me. If anyone knows of an app which would do that please share :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidsonam:
did you tried zappotv app for xbox 360, btw screen streaming is not possible as xbox 360 is a restricted box. anyways if you people come across something please update me in pm as well.

Recommended radio 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2

I know that there is somewhere I can download the zip and just flash it like a ROM, but I don't know where to find the ZIP?
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
No, don't flash it through recovery. You need to flash it in bootloader mode(hboot).

Put the PD98IMG.zip on your SD card(check md5 on computer)

When its on your SD, open terminal emulater on phone(install from market if you don't have sit-up its free)

Type in terminal-

md5sum /sdcard/PD98IMG.zip

Make sure it matches the md5 from pc.

Power off phone.

Press and hold volume down, then press power.

Now it should start the process automatically.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Thremix:
I understand most of this.. but I don't know what you mean by "(check md5 on computer)"
[HTC Inspire 4G] schinner16:
Google md5 checker, simple tool that will read the file and tell you if it matches the md5 number of the original file. Course you could go to the market and get manD5 which allows you to check the number after its in the root of the SD card.

With a radio I would check it at both times simply because you can't be to careful when it comes to flashing radios. Remember measure twice cut once.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Thremix:
is there no better way to do this? I flashed my last radio by installing the file on my SD and flashing it from hboot... that was it..
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Nothing has changed, that is still the same procedure. All that they're telling you to do is check the md5 hash of the file to guarantee that it's not corrupt. You don't want to flash a corrupt .zip file in hboot. But if you feel adventurous you can skip the md5 check. Chances are low that the file will be corrupt if you downloaded it correctly and copied it to your SD card correctly.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
As low as chances are, I have an EXTREMELY fast home internet connection that usually doesn't drop nary a packet. However, 2 releases ago when I downloaded the iso for Fuduntu 32 bit (shameless plug) I didn't check the md5 hash before rolling it into a torrent and started seeding. Long story short, our official 32 bit torrent had a corrupt iso image.... check the md5. I use Hashcalc on windows (it has a nice GUI) and MD5 Hash Checker on my phone (it too has a nice GUI, a feature I chose to search for when tab completion refuse to work in my terminal emulator)
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Ya just check it.

corrupt radio=permanent brick
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Indeed, it does happen.

I downloaded this very radio in question the other day on a solid WiFi connection.

Checked the the MD5....failed. Two totally different numbers. I had never had a download not pass an MD5 check before, so I was almost a little stunned. I re-ran the check just in case I had somehow chosen the wrong file or something. It was indeed bad.

Redownloaded, rechecked, passed. Flashed successfully about an hour ago.

Check your MD5's people. You'll never forgive yourself if something bad happens that was easily avoidable.
[Xoom General] Psychokitty:
The Xoom is my first tablet. Prior to getting it, I was tethered to my laptop. Mylaptop is great, and I made the most of it's potential by networking with my home office desktop. But my Xoom has pretty much replaced it due to the variety of apps that make networking with multiple computers so easy. The Xoom by itself is great, but with the ability to print to a variety of printers from anywhere, as well as being able to tap into the data of several computers at once, my Xoom actually exceeds the capabilities of my laptop.

I'm just wondering what others' experience is with this, and if we're "there" yet, where tablets can actually replace laptops.

My Xoom successfully replaced an MSI Wind netbook. On battery life and portability alone Xoom wins hands down, and that Tegra 2 smokes Atom 1.6 in every way that I've noticed.
