[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichigo:
So i rooted my kindle fire, and, using root explorer, successfully installed Google Play. But i have a few questions.

1. I have v3.15.19, but i cannot find some apps, like 100 floors and Rockplayer(lite).

2. Is there anyway to get Google Play to auto-update?

3. Is there anyway to get Google Play as my main Market, because when it gives me any links, it opens up Amazon Market, not Google Play

4. What else can rooting do for me. All ive done is install Google Play. I know i can install ROMS like CM7 or CM9, but what else can i do?

Thanks!:)

EDIT: Well I flashed a few ICS Roms(CM9 and Energy) but never having a android device before and getting used to the kindle fire's OS, I really didn't like ICS, and, luckily, I made a backup and i just restored the backup and everything was back to its old state.

Oh yeah, and for 3, I went into the Amazon Market, and went somewhere in the menu that let me decide to open links automatically or have it ask me which one. So that problems solved. :)

you can flash modaco if your on rooted stock it may give you more benefit in the play store if your having issues. google play and amazon work side by side quite nicely plus you have the benefit of the stock experience if thats what you really want. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1439916

1. It's normal.

2. Clear market's cache and reopen it.

4. You can think of God mode. you can do anything you want, really.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popa_qwerty:
sense no one gave a good answer to Question number 3 I will give it a try

3. the only way to make it so that it loads the Google Play store instead of amazon app store is to Flash a non-Kindle based ROM but before you run and flash a custom ROM.

If you are a prime member I would suggest that you do not flash a non-Kindle based ROM because you will lose your access to the Amazon's Lending Library, and Amazon Instant Video.

I would suggest you flash a non-Kindle based ROM if you wont a full android experience and do not need the services listed above
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pichettet1:
That isn't necessarily true. I have a rooted KF and am still able to access my Amazon subscription services and videos.

I flashed the MoDaCo ROM and am using GoLauncher EX to still give me the Aneroid feel. In order to get around Amazon's rediculous 'no root' block, I simply use Voodoo OTA RootKeeper to 'save' my root status and fake an un-root status. Then you can restart your amazon app and it will allow you to access your prime and instant video stuff.

When you're done watching, you can return to root status using Voodoo again.

Hope that helps!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popa_qwerty:
That is not what I was Talking about. I know you can use that method to access the services on a Rooted Kindle but to my knowledge there is no method to get access to Amazon Prime services on a Non-Kindle Based Rom.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pichettet1:
My apologies, I missed when you said non kindle-based ROM. And to my knowledge you are correct. :D
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfranson:
Amazon doing something new to block play?

I rooted my KF (6.3.1) and installed the services framework and play (3.5.15), but it won't allow me to login to my google account, says "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server".

Is Amazon doing something new to keep us away from Play -- something in a hosts table or firewall setting somewhere?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Download and install MoDaCo. It is pre rooted stock UI with Google framework services and Play Store already installed. Besides being a little faster, you really won't notice a difference.

So, I just purchased a Car Dock for my GN from expansys, arrived a few mins ago. Upon putting my phone on it, a notification saying "Car mode enabled" appears. There is no other changes though...

My question is, so what is car mode supposed to enable? So the Pogo Pins are just novelty?

GSM Galaxy Nexus Running AOKP build 37
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattallica76:
When Car mode is enabled, the default Car Home app is activated, and audio is routed through the dock. Sounds like you don't have a "Car Home" app installed though at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xtsuname:
Well, you're not supposed to be able to put a car home app in the Galaxy Nexus...

I was hoping that something would happen with the car dock... I guess this is a Google fail?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lblack99:
Car Home

Can't you simply download any car home app that you choose from the play store? I haven't seen one that is built into the nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coldfusionb:
I just got mine also and when I put the phone in it does absolutely nothing. It does show that it's charging But I can't get anything else to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattallica76:
Yes, just install any Car Home app of your choice from the Play Store. I use CarHome Ultra myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
How is a Google fail. If you don't have a car home app installed, it's rather silly to expect it to do anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
What do you mean you are not supposed to?

Here are the apks you need to install: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26700624&postcount=932
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xtsuname:
Galaxy Nexus is supposed to be Google's flagship phone and the pogo pin was supposed to enable something in the phone, even on stock without the user needing to download anything extra like what the nexus one is able to do.

The Galaxy Nexus however apparently is not able to do anything different regardless of when you purchase a car dock with pogo pins or not. The user still have to get a "Car Home" app from the marketplace.

So, why did I buy an official car dock instead of just getting a better dock that cost cheaper and works with multiple devices?

Do you get what I mean?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Well sort of. But I don't understand why it is an issue to install Google's Car Home. The files I posted are ones I ripped from the Nexus One ROM, so you have the same functionality as the N1.

When you insert the GNex into the dock, it launched Car Home, exactly like the N1...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheshirecat79:
That's not exactly what's going on. As another poster noted, "Car Mode" on the phone does a couple of things when you insert the phone into the POGO dock.

- The phone does into landscape (no big deal I know)

- The phone activates a digital audio stream (spdif) through the pogo pins which the car dock changes into analog via a digital/analog board in the dock. This enables you to use the line out with a 3.5mm jack while only needing the 3 pogo pins connected

- The phone triggers whatever default "car dock app" you have installed. There isn't an OEM one at this time preinstalled, but from my experience those usually suck anyway compared to the market offerings. There are free car dock market apps out there, but CarHome Ultra is by far the best, in my opinion.

- The phone charges at AC speed via the included adapter. This is enough to not lose power even when the screen is on, running navigation, and using an audio player all at the same time.

The dock is far from a google fail, in my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xtsuname:
This depends on the orientation that you have. If you have it portrait, it stays portrait. So basically this is not what the dock does.

Yup.

Yeah, I realize... I was just kinda hoping a little that the information that I've heard so far was wrong, as in google hid something inside the phone's system that would activate something that would make the phone awesome...

You can do this using "Fast Charge" from AOKP ^^

One other thing the dock does is it forces the phone to "Keep Awake"

I guess I'm just pretty disappointed after all the hype that there might be a secret feature to it. The dock is pretty nice regardless.

Oh well~
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aggie6600:
I was disappointed too. I thought the dock would unlock a secret feature so it would make me breakfast while I drive to work and dinner on the way home.

At least it charges my phone at an AC rate without needing to connect a wire everytime I get in the car.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChocoboX:
Well, that helps although I think Google should direct the user to get a car home app. It was preinstalled with Gingerbread, I think..

I was thinking that when you get the car dock a secret would show up or something. I installed the one from Nexus One.

Thanks for the clarification.

Hey guys. My citywide trial ran out and I'm a bit miffed because the iPhone found incoming city and state for free, albeit unreliable. Are there any alternative options for the phone that others have found to be aesthetically pleasing like cityid is with its unobtrusive text and non terrible layover?

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bloodrain954:
I'd like to know as well, even though it's pointless for me, I just love extra information.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jayv81:
Just go into setting/app/all/cityid and wipe cache and data. Should work again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flightsimmer:
When I first got my Galaxy S2, it came with CityID pre-loaded and annoyed me so bad I got rid of it the day I was able to root. After that, any time I had an unknown number call me, I'd just use Number Guru (Market Link). It's free, and gets the job done of at least telling me the location of the caller, and sometimes gives the name and carrier of the person. There's a tiny bit of manual labor involved with copying and pasting the number into the app, but it seems to work OK for me as an alternative to bloatware.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] oppy:
I liked CityID also, but $3/month is ridiculous.

I'm using WorldCallPlaceandTime right now. It's free (except for the ad teaser) and works okay. Not as good as CityID, but not bad either.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iliketoys:
I've found most people that call are cell phones and the locations mean next to nothing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nugzo:
I miss caller ID from t-mobile. Seems like stuff like that would be simple to implement for the carrier. If t-mobile can tell you the names and numbers just like it was in your contact list (if its public) and the location if its a cell phone then all of the carriers should be able to do it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bimmerd00d:
Check out Privus Mobile. It's a little more expensive than city id but will give you caller name.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] aaCotyaa:
This may be old news for a lot of a people, but since I can't find any mention of it in the G2x Forums, then I figured there were probably still enough people who don't know about it to warrant a new thread.

If you're like me and got tired of the instabilities of ICS roms and switched to a GB one, but missed the look and feel of ICS, then here is your answer:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1636393

Holo Launcher works for 2.2 and above. I've been running it on top of HFP 2.2 for 3 days with no problems. It does a great job of giving you an ICS feel on your GB ROM and also features pinch previews and scrollable docks. I recommend using this with a rom that supports Theme Chooser to fully customize your device and really get that Sandwich feel (or whatever other feel you want :p )
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
thats pretty cool, gonna try this when i get home, thanks for posting this!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
I've been using it for 2 days and it is nice and gives the same exact feel of stock launcher of 4.0.4 without the lag haha, I wish Widgets would work but it is only a beta ;-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aaCotyaa:
Widgets are working for me. Just not in the ICS style of pulling them from the app drawer, which is not a huge deal for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Only if it had lock screen gesture and delete/uninstall apps directly from the app drawer. The two things that won't let me go of the Golauncher.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aaCotyaa:
My current rom supports lockscreen gestures (I use them frequently). And if you hold down on an app from the app drawer, drag it to the delete/trash icon, and hold it there, it turns into an uninstall icon. Note: this only works with downloaded apps and not system apps.***
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aaCotyaa:
Oh.. and I appreciate thanks, but if you try the launcher and like it, please show your support and thanks to dev in the original thread linked in the OP. Thanks! :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jimmydafink:
Its Ok, doesn't compare to ADW with the ICS Sqrd paid theme is smooth silky Butter!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] breadland:
I tried this before, it's not bad but I'd rather use GO Launcher EX with an ICS theme. It's just way smoother for my phone.

The problem with the old generation Cobra Tag is that it's not a Bluetooth LE device, and so needs recharging frequently, and moreover won't work with an iPhone. Most people forgetful of their keys are also forgetful of recharging. Supposedly there was going to be a Cobra Tag Universal LE device launched in May, but it didn't.

Have you considered a "Chunky Extra Strong Long Chain Keyring With Belt Clip Metal" from Amazon UK (I'm still not allowed post links). Much cheaper. Works extremely well.

Hey folks,

I'm currently looking for an App that will recognize your charging status and disable the "process" if the juice is on 100% :)

The reason is, that I think the battery life is much longer if you ain't overload your battery every night.

Is there any App that can do this; is it generally possible? :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Indigo:
No, because this is not a "phone" question. When you plug your phone to the charger, the energy is transmitted to the phone and only stop when you unplug it. There's no way to do this.
