[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] antnyp85:
I have had my Galaxy Tab 8.9 for about 4 days now... Loving it, with the exception of Netflix not being available for it... Tried side-loading a few versions of the Netflix apps that are out and not working... Also, how long does it usually take for XDA to set up a page for the new tab :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] clubtech:
I find the 8.9 Tab stuttering when switching home screen in landscape mode, but i switch it portrait mode it is very smooth.

This is verry odd as it is exactly the opposite from th 10.1

I also find video playback to be far worse than the 10.1, both using native player.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] phonic:
Hey everyone.

Well, thanks to recently posted how-tos on various forums, I finally got my 8.9 GT rooted and running Netflix. Works great!

Here are the relevant how-tos:

Root:

Netflix:

Simply put the two .zip patch files in your root directory (/sdcard), reboot into recovery mode, run one, reboot, do the other, reboot, and enjoy!

You do not need to root the tab to install Netflix.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] unremarked:
Confirmed working on the Netflix portion.

I used the Root file from another thread in this forum.

EDIT: Also once you have run the patch.zip file, you can update your Netflix to the latest version and it might still work. I snagged a modified 1.4.1 APK from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178425 and can confirm that it works.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] phonic:
The latest version works, that's what I'm using (1.4.1). Didn't even try the apk in the Netflix Fix thread since I got the one I already had installed finally working.

I actually didn't use the recovery patch method. Since I had already rooted my device, I simply manually replaced the /system/lib/libnvomx.so file with the one in the patch.zip. Made a backup of the old one, put in the new one, rebooted, and netflix worked. So if anyone has their's rooted with a terminal app, you could do it that way too.

Just in case the other threads somehow disappear, I'm attaching the necessary files to root and enable Netflix on the GT8.9.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] antnyp85:
Netflix working thanks to this... Except I randomly get the error saying it cannot connect to the Netflix servers, and I have to reopen the movie I am watching... I don't know if it is just a small bug or what... But works most of the time. (Netflix Updated to 1.4.1 )

Hi, I'm fairly new to Droid phones so please bear with me.

I flashed my phone with FroyoBread V011 by doixanh. Everything looks good and I really like it but there's one problem, Phone won't charge while connected to PC. Windows detects the phone just fine but just won't charge.

I can't say that the USB port can't supply enough juice to charge the phone since my other devices charge just fine.

Inputs are much appreciated.

Thanks to all!
[XPERIA X8 General] jaygod611:

Please help me..

Thank you
[XPERIA X8 General] LG_fuad92:
okay, maybe you should full wipe, cache battery and etc.. or re-flash the ROM.

I'll report back with results (currently busy with work..)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
I just wiped my TF101 more or less voluntarily... I have witnessed before that in Google market only my PAID apps seem to be restored automatically; is there any way to also get the free apps at least listed? I always forget which apps I had installed :(

Thanks everyone! Even a pointer to other threads is appreciated since I couldn't find anything.

:cheers:

EDIT: It is especially annoying for programs like ROM Manager and Documents To Go where the free version is required before the (paid) key can be used
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ultraman666:
Well if you use Titanium backup you can backup all your apps so when you wipe your device you can restore them all quickly and easily.

I dont use Google to backup my apps, much easier to use Titanium.

One other app that is really good is Mybackup you can backup your apps that way as well along with many other features but most are really designed for a phone.

Hope that helps
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
Yeah, I know. I have Ti Backup but as I stated in my post I wiped more or less voluntarily... That's why I was wondering if there is some kind of Google magic that can be used as a backup-backup :D So basically it was my fault to not make a Ti Backup first. Luckily, I don't have any important data on the TF!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] seshmaru:
For me it restores all my downloaded apps automatically by default, weird.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] tonyz3:
if you log onto market. android.com go under my market account and that lists everyapp you ever downloaded.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] CasseTrop:
Same for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
I'll check that out, thanks!

I also found an app called AppBrain App Market which apparently also stores the installed app information and can be used to sync with any given device. It's got really good reviews and is free :)

EDIT: I think I know what might be the reason that I do not get the free apps. When I click on the apps in market.google.com they show up as "installed" although they are not! Either I am missing a setting or it's a bug in the system!

[LG Revolution] navycow:
Has anyone found the wireless charging accessories for this guy yet?
[LG Revolution] Triskite:
it's supposed to use the new wireless charging 'standard' so any pad with the same technology should work

e.g. from amazon, type in qi charger

[LG Revolution] OmiDroid:
Verizon sells the Wireless Charging Battery Cover.

I tried to paste the link but the Forum won't let me (not till after 8 posts anyways)...
[LG Revolution] vortmax:
Looks like the back cover is out of stock on Verizonwireless.com. Does anyone know or have heard of this cover working with a Palm Pre Touchstone? Thanks...
[LG Revolution] gsxrpilot:
Well I got my wireless charging pad and back cover today. The back cover is twice as thick as the stock cover. I came from a Palm Pre so I have a bunch of touchstones. Unforunately, I can confirm that the revo wireless charing system is NOT compatible with the touchstone. The verizon charging pad seems to sense when the phone is near and turns on. The touchstone did not, so that is probably one of the problems. I measured the voltage from the back of the touchstone cover and it wasaround 5.1 Volts. I am hoping I can use the touchstone coil on the stock cover of my revo and wire the charging leads to the revo. The revo has 4 pins for charging but the touchstone only has two, so I need to find out how to wire this. i may have to go through the USB 5V connection. I love my touchstone car mount and I am really hoping to be able to use the touchstones for charging the Revo.

Wireless charging battery cover: http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/...ryDetails&archetypeId=12644&accessoryId=47587

Also, gsxrpilot would you say the wireless charging it worth it? for the almost 100 bucks you spend on it? and does gsxrpilot mean you ride a gsxr street bike?
[LG Revolution] gsxrpilot:
Well there is a deal this month where you get the back free with the pad, so $70 for both. I got a little more discount because I complained that the only reason I needed a new phone and wireless charger is because my Palm Pre stopped working. I would say that it is worth the convenience. Constantly plugging in the micro usb charger due to the low battery life gets old. Now if I can get my touchstones to work, it will really be worth it.

And yes I have a '92 GSXR-750 and love to fly RC Planes and Helis, hence gsxrpilot.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
I might have to get that then. Also, that's sick. My neighbor has a 20xx dsxr 750. They are a blast to ride.
[LG Revolution] imnotamorningguy:
Couple of gripes about this...

I bought the Wireless charging back for my Revo and it's not compatible with the Powermat that I already have, apparently the "qi" technology works differently than the induction that the Powermat uses. It IS compatible with the Energizer power mat which uses the same "qi" technology. but you're looking at the same price for either charging base.

Secondly, the wireless charging cover is twice as thick as the stock cover so any skins or cases you want to get for the phone will not fit. My silicon cover almost fits but buldges out on the sides.

I still think wireless charging is the way to go, just a heads up for those of you who are looking into this.
[LG Revolution] gsxrpilot:
Well I got my touchstone to work with my Revo! I scraped the charging coil from the back of a palm pre cover (bought 2 for less than $5), then hot glued it on the back of my stock revo cover. I had to dremel 4 holes where the metal disks were and added 2 disks per hole since the revo is heavier than the pre and more disks help it stay on the touchstone better. I now have 4 little bumps on the back of my cover. I searched everywhere for the connector that would fit in the stock cover but couldn't find it. So I wound up using magnet wire and soldering directly to the charging tabs on the coil and the top of the connectors on the phone. Didn't have to use too much solder so I could remove the wires if I wanted to go back to the verizon charger. It is nice having the stock cover back, the verizon wireless cover was so much thicker.
[LG Revolution] imnotamorningguy:
Any way you could post a picture? I'm interested to see if that setup would work for my powermat.
[LG Revolution] gsxrpilot:
OK,I think I attached the picture correctly. I did the following:

1. Remove the charging sticker and assembly from the back of the Palm Pre charging cover. Do not use the Pixi charging cover assembly, there is a ribbon in it that cannot be re-assembled after removal.

2. I took my dremel tool and routed some space off the inside back of the cover. The revolution cover is a bit thicker than the pre cover and I was concerned it might be too thick to allow the inductive power through.

3. I also routed some indentations in the back of the cover. (see Phone Back Image) I'm not sure if this was necessary either but I had really hoped I could mount the phone vertically on the touchstone in my car like the pre so i put a second set of metal disks behind the indentations. As it turned out, the revo is much heavier than the pre so this didn't work.

4. I glued the sticker and assembly to the back of the stock cover. First I tried crazy glue which didn't work that well so I wound up using hot glue.

5. Finally I soldered magnet wire from the palm charging tabs to the wireless charging tabs. Top tab to the top charging post (there are 4 of these posts, I only used two) and bottom to bottom. The top tab and post is ground, the bottom tab and post are +5V. (see Phone Inside 2 image)

6. I snapped the cover on (there is still a small gap which I haven't quite worked out yet but it works ok). Stick it on the touchstone and it says "wireless Charging" (which is actually annoying and I thought I had figured a way to remove this notification but it came back)

Now all of my touchstones work for charging and I am not sure I will ever go back to the verizon wireless charger.
[LG Revolution] imnotamorningguy:
awesome stuff, I will definitely give this a shot and post results.
[LG Revolution] scotttkd:
nice hack.....looks like your method could work on most any accessory case
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
how long would it take to charge the revo?
[LG Revolution] gsxrpilot:
Charging probably takes slightly longer than through the USB port. The phone can get a little warm too but I have never had a problem. It's really convenient in the car where I glued the touchstone to my center console. If you have ever tried to drive while plugging in the tiny usb cable you will know what I am speaking about.

Maybe you have an ext partition for your apps and/or data on your sd card which you do not backup?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parva4:
Not sure if this is relevant but I bricked my Desire when I did a Nandroid of a recent Starburst rom. I can't remember which version now unfortunately but it offered data2sd. It's my understanding that performing the Nandroid backup was a bad mistake as the rom had moved vital parts of the phone system to the SD card and the Nandroid backup ignored that as it doesn't see it as a vital part to backup.

A subsequent reboot after doing the Nandroid resulted in the phone booting so far, rebooting, booting less far, rebooting and ultimately, SD card not recognised. Many hours spent learning Fastboot stuff fixed that, then I had a USB brick. Yet more hours ensued and eventually I fixed that too.

I've backed up and even transferred my current rom (Insert Coin CM7) to another SD card tonight with no issues at all but this isn't using data2sd. The speed gains on d2sd were great but I'm wary of using such a thing again as I'm pretty certain that that is how mine died after a Nandroid backup. :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
I used data2sd but that didn't work at all, starburst was slow as hell, i have to say i moved a lot of things to sd, not ext;) not only in android.secure, that could be the problem, but if i don't do that i don't have enough space on my internal

Loombo, frogmovz and karambavidz stopped working few days ago. This issue is not related with the app itself.

You can check that the video servers are unavailable from any browser

Those video servers are totally external with tv shows stream.

As soon as those sites works again, the app will work as usual.
