download barcode scanner and scan the QR code on this site and it will take you directly to the adw launcher app in the market.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TokyoElbow:
I just updated my phone to 2.1 and my adw.launcher was a bit monged, I uninstalled it and then went to the market only to find its not there!!

When I scan the barcode it opens up my browser, not Market application.

EDIT:

got it to work now.

I had to remove the Skyfire browser first. Now when I scan it connects to the market.

its probably because I had Skyfire set as the default browser (didnt know how to set it back to not being the default, so quicker to just remove it)

I do industrial type work, and i do a lot of climbing which usually involves leaning to sturdy myself while using my arms. This makes for a lot of broken phones, which wasnt a huge deal until 3g service actually arrived. I need something very rugged, that could support the weight of a grown man that i could slide the phone in. it has to clos so the phone cant fall out while climbing. i was thinking of getting fabricated, but i'm sure i'll have much reduced signal through a little steel box.

Are there any carbon, or some kind of signal friendly metal solution that is as rugged as i'm looking for? doesnt have to be for my i9000 specifically, it could be bigger. as long as the phone fits in it, i can fill the rest with foam and velvet or something. I have actually been wearing a fanny-pack so i can move the phone away from my hips, but not only do i look like a tosser, but i know i'll still crush the screen eventually :)

Thanks,

perv
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jutezak:
Carbon is also conductive. I'd think polycarbonate (lexan) may do what you want if supported all around, and something to keep the glass away from the phone (so it needs to bend quite a bit before hitting the phone).

The antenna is in the bulge at the bottom; keep that behind plastic, not metal.

What about a ring of U profile with lexan glued to both sides? Make one side removable so you can take the phone out. The phone, when in the U, will be the thickness of the U away from the lexan.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] bapsack:
check for Hama NaviBag Universal, S2

think this is quite a protection...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] pervert:
I actually started making something out of 5mm lexan. i dont have a bending heater, so its bulky, but it does what i need, despite it being ugly. I think if i change to rivets instead of little bolts, and toss some leather on it, it'd end up looking alright even though its big. Thank you both for your replies

[G Tablet General] catttman:
App Store

Please be advised that a software update is now available that provides access to an Apps Store directly from your G Tablet. Owners of the G Tablet will receive an automatic notice of the new software upgrade. Users can then simply click on the Apps Store icon from their G Tablet to gain access to 1,000's of leading Android apps. (Please note that the automatic notification requires that the G Tablet has WiFi Internet access upon power-on.)

Adobe Flash Support

The Viewsonic G Tablet hardware and firmware provides full support for the Adobe Flash Player built into the unit. At the time that the G Tablet was manufactured, the Adobe Player application was not available for this product. We anticipate that a version of the Adobe Flash Player Application will be available by December 19, 2010. Owners of the G Tablet will receive an automatic notice that the plug-in is available for download to further expand their web access and entertainment. (Please note that the automatic notification requires that the G Tablet has WiFi Internet access upon power-on.)
[G Tablet General] catttman:
anyone get the appstore update?

None here to report

(no mods)
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
If this is an OTA update, most likely none of us with mods will get it -- it's probably getting pushed down via the TnT OTA service. They might push down an update.zip and then do a reboot into recovery to run it. If that's the case, we might be able to intercept the update. Maybe.

EDIT: I called CS (I love 'em, they are a great bunch to talk to, in all seriousness). Sounds like the update is ready to go and it sounds like it's an OTA update. Lots of bug fixes as well as their App Store, which sounds like a web site of some kind. It may have been pulled at the last minute but should show up this weekend or early next week.

It also sounds like the new shipments to Staples are part of the reason for getting this out so I hope that means they will work overtime to get this out ASAP. We will see.
[G Tablet General] switt:
Ignoring the terrible condition at launch, the update came pretty quickly. Hopefully we'll see more updates.
[G Tablet General] mmracing:
No update here and I registered my unit right after I got it.

I wonder if there is anything we have to do to get the update?
[G Tablet General] WhiskeyJac:
Update process?

IS there anything that an enduser needs to do to recieve the update? If it's OTA does it ask before it install that update? I keep checking their website but they don't seem to view it as a communication tool. Those poor CS people are about to get swamped I guess
[G Tablet General] rushless:
The site is a portal for pocketgear and apps linked there for download. Apparently all "compatible" with tablets. Since a near-full market now works for the Gtablet with the framework data wipe trick, I will wait for you or Roth to post some magic from the official update :)
[G Tablet General] jmfrost:
Where did this information come from? There's no reference to it on their support site and if you go to pocketgear.com it's still not a device you can add. :confused:

I got my update Thursday night. My tablet posted a notification that I had an update available, I clicked on it and it downlozded. It seems to have fixed the clock loosing time, their market app now works, the update icon was changed, wifi seems to be more stable and reliable. They also seem to have addressed the storage card issues, but it still does not recognize my microsd card installed. It sees it but I haven't found a way to access it yet.

Downside: they screwed up the default home page. The three windows are now blank waiting for data. I have not been able to add or change any thing on this screen.

I am running stock tablet no mods.

flash installed from link posted here

launcher pro

adobe reader

kindel app
[G Tablet General] mmracing:
I don't have any mods on mine either. I have the same software installed as you except I have not installed Flash.

Still nothing on the update here... no notification or anything. I sure hope my registration went through. I saw where somone said they got an email after registering, I did not receive an email.
[G Tablet General] guitar geek:
I did not get an email either. This may be a stupid question but did you try to click on the update icon?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
That's my goal - I want the update just so I can mod it into TnT Lite 2.00. Right now I have a vanilla config on my device and I'm waiting it out.

I have a feeling that we won't see the update until Monday, but I hope that I'm wrong.

They told me that there was a UAT period where the CS reps got the update on their test devices. Perhaps they don't have an actual UAT side and they added it to their production infrastructure instead which would have allowed a few consumers to get the update? That's my guess.

Can you check your kernel version? I'm curious if they sent a new one. Also, do you have an update.zip in the root of your /sdcard and, if so, can you post that? That could be the actual update that they sent down.
[G Tablet General] mmracing:
It you are talking about the "Tap UI Network Updater" then yes I have and it says it us up to date. Is there another place that has an update icon?

Thanks for the help!
[G Tablet General] jmfrost:
Yes, that is the icon to update. Just got off the phone with support. The update has been pulled until 11/22. Allegedly there were other things to be included and they wanted to release it all at once, that's what I was told anyway.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Bad decision on their part - better to have an interim update now and another early next, unless there's a nasty bug in the interim build.

A lot of shoppers will be out this weekend and they really need that firmware update NOW.

EDIT: Added a new thread - I felt this was important enough that it was warranted.

Since I got my G yesterday, I have not seen the App Store anywhere on it. Here is the update I have on mine:

Tap UI Update

Current Version: Flextronics/harmony/harmony/:2.2/FRF91/hudson-20101023-135552-TnT_SVN_2638:user/testkeys

I registered my product this morning (2 hours ago) and haven't received any emails confirming registration from VS.

I do have wifi on at power-on.

Purchased it at Sears outlet for $279 of which I think is a steal just for the hardware.
[G Tablet General] Talk2Rider:
I am still completely stock - no OTA update yet for me either. I did not get any sort of confirmation email when I registered...the screen just said "Thanks for Registering" and that was it.
[G Tablet General] rushless:
Not being released until 11/22. Flash is not in the update.
[G Tablet General] wasserkapf:
Mostly stock g-tablet, and no update. I will see what happens on 11/22.

I never got an email reply when I registered my device. Since some here have said they got a reply, I did the registration again. Still no reply.
[G Tablet General] catttman:
Just looked and this is new

IMPORTANT! SOFTWARE UPDATE

On November 22nd , 2010 there will be a software update released to all owners of the G Tablet. This update will be automated to your G Tablet when you are connected via wifi, however, some early customers may need to click on the Tap UI icon in the “more” section of your home page to initiate the software update. (The download will take anywhere from 1 minute to 1 hour depending upon your wifi network speed.) Please follow the instructions posted on your G Tablet to install the latest product update which improves your G Tablet experience. This update includes a new Marketplace, additional applications, increased performance and micro SD capabilities. Look for additional updates in the future as we continue to enhance the G Tablet Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

[G Tablet General] guitar geek:
Sorry for the delay. I am trying to get on a plane to San Juan. I will be on a cruise for 2weeks. The WIFE won't let me play with this thing until we get back, so I will miss the big release.

KERNAL. 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-DIRTY. HUDSON@TAPNTAPSVN #13

BUILD NUMBER. FRF91

I could not find any update file in any location on my g tablet. Could you tell me where I should go to find it? It is currently 8pm. I will keep checking as long as I can.

The update screen says 2.2/FRF91/HUDSON-20101117-175044-TNT_SVN2906:USER/TEST-KEYS

I hope this helps.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I was hoping it would be on the root of /sdcard. Oh well.

If you have clockworkmod, you could do a backup and then upload that. But no worries, in two days we'll all be getting this!

If you mean TnT Lite 2.00 with all the new fixes? You betcha'!

Sorry I have not Mod'd my tablet at all. I plan to when I come back. I just double checked - nothing in the sdcard did.

I have a droid incredible phone, and I am having issues trying to get the SDK to work properly. Just so you know, I am not rooted as I haven't been able to do that because of the OTA updates and unrevoked needing to be updated and etc.

I have downloaded the JDK and JDE that is supposed to go along with that as well and went through the installation of that. I also had a friend help me get the HBOOT drivers as well. So I am stuck at being able to get the ddms.bat file to stay open when I click on it, I even tried the "right click run as administrator" since I am running on Vista windows. No luck there, and stuck as to not knowing what else I should do.

I can't seem to get anyone to help other than one person which was the friend who got me to do the HBOOT drivers thinking that would help which it didn't. Anyone out there please help me!?!

but I want to delete the Avatar, TeleNav, and others.

I prefer File Manager, it's free and pretty easy to use and delete all the Bloatware. Download it, open it and navigate to My Phone>system>app and look for the apk you want removed.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] draikz:
Is it ASTRO file manager, eFile - File Manager, or just plain "File Manager"?

Oh and what is .odex and .apk? Should I delete both?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master™:
.odex is the file before deodexing.

.apk is the output once deodexed.

Yes, delete both.. But I would recommended titanium to uninstall. And there is a link in the sticky that tells you all of the .apks & .odex files you can remove...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StefanB86:
Plain File Manager.

Here's a list of safe programs you can remove.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] draikz:
Oh and when I use file manager and try to delete it says insufficient privilege or something like that

Oh and it didn't ask for root powers even though I already rooted and have the superuser app

The standard camera app is sometimes getting stuck and showing a recent photo (not the latest) instead of displaying what I'm pointing the camera at. If I play a video, it then shows the last frame of the video overlaid over the photo. I also had a similar problem with a bar code scanning app.

I installed the bar code scanning app, but still is a problem. Rebooting sometimes fixes it, but after a couple photos the problem comes back.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab General] xebec168:
I also experience same issue. This will happen after you play some video, e.g. launching NOVA game.

Only way is to restart the phone.

I tried many cam software but once this bug happen, you just need to restart phone.

I was hoping someone can confirm with me if their G2 is working 'properly' with this option enabled: Location & security settings \ Use wireless networks (checked)

Test would be to see if your Google Map (or other apps that needs your location like some weather apps) can find or track you rather than being fixated at your last known position.

Mine seems to only work when using a Wi-Fi network or when I switch to EDGE cell network (2G). Never have seen it work properly with WCDMA (which is HSDPA default) and I have been using Anycut to view the Phone's info to see this portion of tidbits. BTW, I don't have 4G in my area just yet.

Is this just my phone or something in common with all G2s. My G1 does not have this issue at all.

Thanks to anyone that can verify with me.

hey try using the app gps settings to download agps data. It worked for me in finding my location via the network so it should work for you as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr123:
The way it works is this; the tower ID numbers are sent from your phone to google. Google then looks up the coordinates of that tower in their tower database, and sends the coordinates back to you. You then have your approximate location. If the particular tower you are connected to is NOT LISTED within google's database, then they will be unable to determine your location.

Congratulations, neither does anyone else since there is not a single service provider in north america that has begun rolling out 4G (despite lies to the contrary). You will be able to recognize 4G by the speed -- 100 Mb/s down, 50 Mb/s up. Your phone is NOT CAPABLE of anything even REMOTELY CLOSE to this.

Could be a glitch in the software, I suppose, but more likely you are connected to a different tower.

As someone who came from a Nexus One, I prefer to flash on the go. I usually take a Zip I have on my phone with ua_redbend in it, edit the update script on the go and drop the appropriate Modem.bin or zImage into it. But for those who haven't done this on the go, all you'll have to do is unpack the tar file most people upload, drop it in the respective ZIP file below using an appropriate program on your phone (unrar, astrozip, astro file manager for a few) and use Clockwork to flash on the go...

Of course, I am not liable for any misflashing that may occur, I just thought that this would help out on the go... :)

The folder to drop your respective file into will be the kernel_update folder.

Enjoy guys! And flash on the go Go GO!

Edit: Works as well with Infuse. It saved my Bacon when making my 1.0 Infusion so that I could reupload it quickly. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] mac208x:
I just download the files to my computer that are flashable with clock and copy them all onto my sd and flash while i drive lol

Thanks bedwa, ive been looking for a method like this! All I ever really have to use my ext. Sd for is priority files and a handful of things for post-flash care ;) such as my ever-so-loved launcher 2 apk, setiron's kernel, and a few others so when I help someone flash I put my sd in there phone and install the basics.

So I just drop zimage in w/ no edit?

I appreciate it. Thanks.

Flash a z4 kernel and you are kind of stuffed lol. Well it's more of a nandroid and ROMs on the internal SD on my side of the world.

[Captivate Android Development] lolgrec:
so is there a way for this method to restore my captivate back to JF6? i'm on a mac and don't have access to windows all the time, so one click back to JF6 isn't a common option for me
[Captivate Android Development] bedwa:
Thats a bit trickier.... I would assume that you could redbend the whole thing, but you would need ALL the partitions and all the proper locations. Though it may be easier with hiemdal.....
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
Idk about JF6 but I've been using the stock OTA UCJH7 as my jump-off for flashing ROMs. I always do it through CWR and (as long as I remember to disable lagfixes) I've never had a problem.

Made my phone a damn good brick by forgetting to disable the lagfix and trying to flash back to stock, but as long as you're not as dumb as me you shouldn't have a problem.

When I first got the phone I spent hours trying to get my computer to recognize it in download mode before eventually coming to the conclusion that I was having hardware problems in my USB ports. I've only ever used Odin to go to stock *once* and I did it on a friend's laptop. So, figure that you and I have about the same access to Odin. I feel pretty confident with this on-the-go method of returning to stock and flashing.

Edit:

Also, now that I think about it, you can probably find a stock JF6 update.zip to be used with CWR. You may even find it somewhere linked to that thread that I posted.

This seems very interesting.

I came from the HTC Legend background and i was always flashing on the go then. I bricked the Cappy when i tried flashing on the go (as i was so used to on the legend).

However, looking at your files, i really have NO IDEA how to use this.

Could you post a step by step guide as to how to use this?

Would be great if you could dummy proof this so users like me won't mis-flash.

At the moment, i'm looking at your files, and i have no idea what order of flashing should another custom rom be.

However, i can only assume that these files are flashed BEFORE the custom ROM?

As in -> recovery -> Kernel & modem -> Custom Rom.

In this order?
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
These aren't flashable update.zips they're just guts to insert into a pre-made update.zip.
