Ok! I'll have to give that one a shot. Depending on the price that is haha! Thanks for the helpful info!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandonyoung:
eBook reader is already included

The Galaxy Tab 10.1 already includes an ebook reader. It was a part of the Touchwiz update. It can read the epub and PDF formats. It is compatible with the Adobe DRM if you are borrowing books from your library or buying other copy protected books, so you can give it your Adobe ID username and password, and it should be able to read them.

It is simply named "ebook" in the apps screen.

for transferring the books,

turn off the USB debugging under settings->Applications->Development

plug you tablet into your computer

browse to your tablet under your computer.

find the ebook folder on the tablet, put your ebook files in the ebook import folder

the path from my computer was "Computer\GT-P7510\Tablet\ebook\import"

After the files are copied, open the ebook app,

go to the menu and choose import to let the ebook reader app see the new books.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 56789:
Barnes and Noble's Nook app supports .epub. Just drop your files into sdcard>Nook>MyDocuments and you're good to go. Not sure about DRM though.

For pdf's, I use ezPDF Reader. It's not free, but it's got some pretty nice features.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] el3ctrik:
I use Aldiko, handles ePub and PDF which are my 2 main formats. I use Samba Filesharing for Android to create a network share, dump the files in and then use Aldiko's import folder feature to get them into it's library.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cardsharp234:
That's actually a pretty simple seeming way to transfer ebooks (all of mine are in epub (and for sure I'm not worried about DRM)) from my computer to the Tab. However, here's my sticky part. I HATE the look of the TouchWiz UI update. Loved the plain Jane Honeycomb that came with it (don't get me wrong, I think it added some very good features and needed updates), but the skin just makes it look silly to me. So my plan is to root and install a custom ROM of vanillia Ice Creme Sandwich when it comes out. That's why I'm looking for a third party (or Google) ebook reader.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tboydva:
I second the Nook App from B&N. Had a Nook color for about a year though and got used to the way the software works. Gave Nook to my wife and got the GT10.1. Just copy your epubs into the folder via varelawarfare's instructions and they'll turn up in your library. Haven't used the Kindle app much, but I prefer Nook over Aldiko, Google Books and the Samsung reader (but may just be because I'm used to it). I also use Overdrive reader as it is pretty good at seamlessly downloading DRM-ebooks (library for instance).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DBBGBA:
On my 8.9 the nook app seemed to be very sluggish, does it happen to everyone? I ended up using the book app that came with the tablet, its actually pretty good but some books it doesn't override the fonts thus doing weird stuff like keeping text black when I choose a dark background.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cardsharp234:
So it's really looking like the top picks for most people are either the Nook or Kindle readers or Akidio and Calibre for loading them onto the Tab? These are some great responses and suggestions from everyone! Super appreciative!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seltaeb:
My take on this, since I spent a LOT of time looking for a good book / epub reader:

- Kindle: Need to convert to .MOBI format, no page-flip transitions

- eBook: Maximum number of files supported is 200, but does a good job otherwise

- Moon Reader+: Excellent reader, quirky but highly configurable, however cuts off last line of text for each page for some .epubs

- Aldiko Premium: Chokes when trying to load shelf, otherwise fine

- Mantano Reader: Very polished interface, developers listen to user feedback, handles PDF apart from .epub, no page-flip transitions

- EZ PDF Reader: Excellent for PDFs, but no .epub support

Bottom-line: I use Mantano :)

/would go for Moon Reader+ if Mantano were not available...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Revils:
I tried several and Moonread it's my fav (never used Mantano, I'll check it out) since it offers alot of options and it allows to scroll smoothly between pages.

For loading books I use Calibre with "connect/share start content server" so it can be used wireless as a web store directly from the ereader or from the browser.

What I hate about all these ereaders is that none use the same folder for storing the epub files, some use /book, other /ebook or /ebooks :mad:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sharky444:
I'm using Aldiko for Epub and EZ PDF Reader for PDF. EZ PDF Reader is the only tool on Android with acceptable PDF quality (tried them all including Mantano, small text is unreadable).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cardsharp234:
So (if I'm reading this right) I can basically wirelessly update what new content I have on my computer to my Tab via wireless home network??? That beats having to use that freaking short cord that comes with my Tab. Heck... Thought just hit me. If I can remotely access my computer, wonder if (though that remote access and assuming of course that I'm in a wireless area) I could update my Tab content even when I'm away from the computer..... Interesting concept to me right there.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Revils:
Yup! check on Calibre menu "preference-sharing over the net".

If your computer can be reached over internet it can be done everywhere otherwise just when you are connected on the same wireless router
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cardsharp234:
That's freaking amazing that Calibre can do that! ...God bless that/those developer(s)!

Hey everyone. Last night I finished up making my own bootanimation and I came upon a snag. My bootanimation zip is HUGE. I need a way to compress it from 20ish MB to 9 MB so it can actually fit where it should. Any suggestions on what to do?

I will also make it available to download once I get out of class so you can check it out. Thanks much!

Nevermind, I think I figured it out myself.
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
I posted this in the big 3.0.4 thread, but thought this might merit its own thread w/o hijacking that one....

I upgraded to 3.0.4 last night and my Touchstone suddenly stopped charging. I know it was the update because I had it resting on it the entire time. On 3.0.2 it was a-ok, but once it finally rebooted into 3.0.4... nothing. I have the HP OEM case. This morning I finally took it out of the case, and sure enough, the Touchstone works.

There are a few threads on other sites of people having the same issue. It sounds like the update decreased the sensitivity of the induction doo-dad (technical term) to increase the accuracy of the compass (apparently the TP has one...), and in the process borked the Touchstone charging for just about any case, although some people report the Touchstone still charges with the HP case.

Does anyone know of a workaround? Or is a patch possible outside of another HP update? I really don't care about the compass. It sounds like some of the other people affected are awaiting responses from HP, but who knows if they'll fix it.

ps. On a side note, does the Touchstone still work in CM7?
[TouchPad General] Camille68:
Just put mine onto the Touchstone, and it is charging it with the case on (I have the HP case).
[TouchPad General] jlawou:
Mine charges in the HP case as well but not if the case is folded over. I used to be able to charge it with the case cover folded behind. This is really stupid b/c who is really using the compass feature, hardly anyone (including myself) knew it was there.
[TouchPad General] stan.s:
I have the touchstone and the HP case, I find that it's more finicky about where it is on the Touchstone to charge, just slide it to the left a bit in landscape and you'll hear the charging tone. The charging grid is towards the Center button, not in the middle of the unit. Shame that the case doesn't fold back as nicely on the stand in portrait mode (but it charges just the same).

And fwiw, I have my HP BT keyboard booklet, the microfiber wipe, behind the tp inside the case.
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
Lucky! :) It sounds like it's just really finicky now with the supposed lower sensitivity. I've tried moving TP around on the Touchstone and smashing the case down more when I fold it, etc, and didn't have any luck as long as the case was still on. The "reach" of the inductive charger must be right at the limit now and, of course, I'm sure depends on a lot of other factors.
[TouchPad General] Slack3r:
You could try running WebOS Doctor and doing a clean install:

http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/WebOS_Doctor_Versions

Did you have any preware patches installed before running the update?
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
Ok, thanks. I've never used Doctor before, but I may have to try that. I'm still hoping there's some update or patch to revert this behavior.

I did have the typical preware patches installed before this (for the logging, etc). I reverted back to the stock kernel before the update. I haven't tried messing with Preware again after the update.
[TouchPad General] tomit12:
I did the update and it failed. So I webosdoctor'd it...now it won't even charge sitting on the Touchstone naked! LOL
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
I played around with it a little more last night. It will charge if I put my TP on the TS in the cover but w/o folding the flap behind it (rather, just letting it lay out in front). It used to work with it folded behind too. This sucks, but I guess it's something for now.
[TouchPad General] deafninja:
I am having the same issue Touchstone no longer works on my touchpad after update.

Also of note I had the touchpad ON the touchstone while making the update.
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
Same here. I'm not sure if that makes a difference. Do you have any case on the TP?
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
Would it be possible to tweak the touchstone induction back to 3.0.2 levels via a patch in preware? I was hoping one of the unofficial kernels might be able to.
[TouchPad General] Falstafff:
My touchstone seems to work. For both webOS and for CM7.
[TouchPad General] RojasTKD:
My TouchPad charges fine after the latest update even with a Poetic Folio case that is much thinker than the official HP case.
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Tweaks by romanbb partially working

for InsertCoin3.3.x

Currently running on the latest InsertCoin 3.3.x series

..and probably all IC-Sense3.5-based builds

(Also reported as working on ARHD 4.1.4)

Disclaimer

This is not a port or a mod even, its just something from one ROM that partially works on InsertCoin rom. Use at your own risk. The most important thing you can do is to

backup your stuff

to avoid anything happening that you cannot fix, etc, just sharing something useful

Description

This mod was discovered by ronaldramsayii who provided me with the two files (Settings.apk & Tweaks.apk) that made this possible. This is a partially working version of the RCMix Tweaks app the gives InsertCoin3.3.x users the ability to use some of these functions without error.

How to install

*You will need Root Explorer or ADB

1. Download this zip file (mirror atached) and extract files to SD card.

---The zip contains the needed Settings.apk & Tweaks.apk files and is NOT CWM flash able.

2. Place both these apk files in /system/app (using Root Explorer or ADB)

---I advise backing up/renaming your original Settings.apk just in case.

3. Set the Permissions on these to rw-r--r-- (or for ADB chmod 644)

---If you do not set permissions correctly, you will boot loop

---Screenshot of correct permissions via post #14

4. Reboot.

After Install

**After applying the Tweaks that you need, you can replace the Settings.apk with the original (and reboot!). This will remove the Tweaks from your settings menu, however, it will keep the mods you've already made. The Tweaks.apk must be removed though root explorer or ADB, otherwise, it will remain installed, you will have no "GUI" to access its options.

***When you have rebooted, you wil notice that in your setting menu, there is now an Tweaks option (screenshot attached). ronaldramsayii reported in his original post that some options did render force closing. What I have got to work is as follows:

What Works?

(confirmed working, but did not test beyond these)

Clock Options:

Clock Style

AM PM Style

Choose Clock Color

Battery Options

Show battery icon

Battery text style

Choose battery color

Signal Options

Signal text style

Swap 2G Icon

Swap 4G Icon

Quick Settings

Select Settings to hide

Lockscreen Settings

Volume keys wake phone *does work, but by default is checked and will not let you toggle off*

Sense Options

Quick-quick settings

Kill Rosie!

Credits:

Thanks to romanbb for creating the Tweaks app for the Bliss ROMs, to ronaldramsayii for his help with discovering this and providing the files that made this possible, to Behold_this for discovering Quick Settings also works.​

EDIT: See post #3 for mirror link/attachment for Tweak files.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
They wont work, it needs to be ported and the build ur using modified. Stick with the build u want, tweaks isnt easy to port and cant just be dropped into /system. Every app that tweaks has options for is modified.

[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Any clock tweaks?
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
That's exactly why I wanted to get this working was for the clock mod. It works great, i posted a couple screenshots in post 3 that should show what i did. But you can change the color as well, I left it white for now, but i also centered it and the AM/PM options all work too. No force closes, even when using Root Explorer to copy/paste the Settings.apk over to the system folder. All it needs is a normal reboot and it's good to go!

Enjoy
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Add.quick settings you the working list.
[HTC Sensation] cr1960:
don't be surprised when strange things start to happen.

as @zimphishmonger correctly points out there is reliance on various bits and pieces in files within the roms. when you change one thing it may have a flow on effect to something else (ever flashed a new battery icon and lost crt animation?)
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
This is true, but that is the fun in playing. We all have our ROM back ups, don't we? ;)

---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------

Just to be clear to anyone reading the above, this is a thank you for testing NOT fixing or building the mod. Credit goes to romanbb this is his tweaks app! From bulletproof not from rcmix.
[HTC Sensation] Gripstone:
(Cururrently running the latest InsertCoin 3.3.5 ....)

Im running on latest 3.3.5 and after install this i have bootloop !!!

E : Tried in second times, bootlop again...
[HTC Sensation] cr1960:
I dunno... maybe ask @gripstone who has a bootloop :)

Playing is fun but folks just need to understand that they could end up messed up that's all.
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
You know, everyone just needs to take some ownership and responsibility for their own stuff. if he's bootlooping then perhaps the install or download are bad. Either way if someone does anything like this and doesn't first make a back up, they frankly deserve what they get. Not my problem some people get themselves in over their heads!
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Since I forgot to originally include the step to set permissions for the system files, he probably never set the permissions, which will cause the loop because the settings isn't readable to the system. My girls Sensation did that and a simple ADB chmod 644 fixed the issue.

I also advise using root explorer to not only set the correct permissions, but also:

Long-press the Settings and Tweaks APK and choose "Change ownership" and set value to "0.- root" which will reasign these files as root files (which they should be)

What KERNEL do you PREFER' w/ vSync On or vSync OFF'? WHY'?​

DEVELOPERS JOIN US HERE !!!

*please explain why so that the other users will understand :D​
[Optimus One, P500, V General] yamyyy:
Using franco's v19.4 gbs by fserve with Mik's 6.5.7. I've tried kernels with v-sync on/off by default but I haven't notice any great difference. I think it feels a bit smoother with v-sync on?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] voyager20021:
Indeed not such a noticeable visually difference between the two. I believe the screen is too small to see any improvement, as in pc's. It also takes some fps in grafics. Maybe i'm wrong and it's useful for something?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RockR172:
I do find the difference... m using miks cm7 6.6.1 and when franco had turned off vSync, the neocore score had gone to 75fps and without it i get 62 to 65fps... :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] JastaPein:
well that's what im talking about.. w/ a kernel who has a vsync on that frames per second (FPS) drops down but when its off it goes all the way up to 70+ so meaning to say for a type of person who wants to play games on their O1' they really need to use a kernel whos vsync is OFF..

vSync On - Low FPS

vSync Off - High FPS

right'?

can somebody help us here'? developers come and join US .. .
[Optimus One, P500, V General] JastaPein:
Up !!!

Bump !!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Turducken:
google it if you want a technical explanation but here's the basic description:

vsync off = great for benchmarks but crap in real life.

vsync on = crap for benchmarks great in real life.

Say your screen refreshes at 60Hz - Vsync on will attempt to display 30fps to avoid tearing. 30 goes into 60 twice evenly... get it?

Vsync off will display as many fps as possible. So rather than holding back and displaying 30fps it will allow 35fps. This will cause tearing because 35 does not go into 60 evenly.

It's the same affect you get when playing video games on a PC.

**EDIT**

If I had seen that you spammed alot of dev threads with this same question I wouldn't have responded. Use a search engine and stop spamming!
[General Questions and Answers] Klunk_uk:
I have an application that I have been working on that uses a tabhost/tabwidget configuration. I developed using a Froyo emulator and an HTC Desire running Froyo and all works fine. I have now tried a gingerbread device and I am unable to select the different tabs. (Tried a CM7.1 touchpad based on GB and SGS2)

The application has a single activity, with the tabs configured in the onCreate method of the activity.

Is anyone aware of an issue like this, I cannot find anything with google.

What I'm trying to achieve here is a bit tricky (for me) due to my low expertise with Java/Linux.

I need to store a 16-digit alphanumeric serial number that would be persistent thru resets and most re-flashes. I was currently investigating setting one of those variables that you get with fastboot getvar command, does anyone know where in the vanilla android source code are these variables defined?

Another option would be to try and change the number I get when I see my device listed after running "adb devices", but apparently that's a no go.
