Went to the built in app market and downloaded the kindle app, it WILL NOT WORK everytime I tell it to register its says "not connected to internet" when it most definitely is.

I only need Kindle ( or any eReader i guess ) and a comic reader that works, any advice?

The information is so scattered on how to rom, root, and what not so I am hesitant to try that ( plus dont have extra microsd right now ).

any help would be appreciated.

1) If still using stock firmware then download TnT-Lite Ver. 2.2.0 here:

2) Fix market: - Google Marketplace has been added. It is crippled by default, but it's fixable with this hack: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845175.

3) Add Flash: Flash works, but you need to sideload the correct apk. (Update for 12/2) You can get a new version here: http://xdaforums.com/show...6&postcount=26. And yes, Angry Birds works.

All 3 steps are copy/paste from Roebeet's post in step#1.

Hope this help.
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
You actually don't need an external microsd card to root, install ROMs or anything. I haven't used one yet. You just need the USB cable that came with the tablet, and there's a built-in internal SD-card storage area in the G Tablet.

As Ricky's reply suggests, most people here are using TNTLite or ZPad. VEGAn ROM is also almost totally stable now (and I'm not sure how CyanogenMod is coming along). We almost all exclusively use these ROMs because they work much better than stock, and because we have access to the full Android market with them.

I highly recommend following one of the Howto threads that explain installing ClockworkMod, then TNTLite, then doing the Market Fix.

If you don't want to do that and you still want to stick with stock, there are several threads on rooting with Z4Root, then getting Android Market working on stock. Some people are more comfortable with that than installing one of the custom ROMs, but I think you're missing out on a lot of great possibilities that way.

Here's the thread I think Ricky was referring to, by the way: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245
[G Tablet General] sgilbert:
I suspect this might be sacrilige for this forum but I got so frustrated after calling ViewSonic I decided to put a custom rom on ( before i seen your replies ) the first how to i found was droidpirates tnt no clockwork version and android market fix. If thats competing sites I want to apologize.

I want to thank everyone who develops and the community that helps support these devices. This Pad was absolutely worthless to my wife before flashing with custom rom. NO app that required an internet connection would function properly Viewsonic said its the app funny changed firmware and they worked instantly.

Im getting some forced close errors but honestly the pad is so responsive and have access to the full android market, we also got it on the Sears $350 deal and we are very happy so far. Its a shame they manufacturers rush out this hardware with close to unusable software.

What does the clockword mod do?
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
Clockwork Mod is a recovery system. It allows you to much more easily flash new ROMs, to switch between different ROMs, and to backup and restore your system in case anything goes wrong.

You get to it by pressing and holding the Vol + key while booting up your tablet (you need to install it first of course - see the HOWTO thread in the G Tablet Android Development forum for detailed instructions).

If you don't have Clockwork Mod installed and something goes wrong flashing a ROM, or your partitions get screwed up (which happened once to me), it's a lot more of a pain in the butt to restore your system back to a working state (you have to use a tool called NVFlash from your desktop).

As a result, mostly everybody on the forums here uses Clockwork Mod and recommends to new users that they install it too. :)
[G Tablet General] sgilbert:
thanks for the info its most appreciated. I guess when viewsonic releases the update on the 19th there will be new roms based on it so i probably should get it installed and not push my luck. I didnt even us an SD card to flash this rom.

The My Touch 4G is the best android phone I've ever had and I pre-ordered the G1. I've had the My touch 3G. I've rooted every device I've had. The nexus one to get apps2sd mainly because the available memory wasn't enough. I had to forgo apps like google earth etc.. I was never able to try sense roms for long because of the memory needed to run them. I debated between nexus s and this phone and I know I made a god choice this phone has everything. I can't wait for the next generation android. Google is the best. I would never have imagined the possiblities three years ago when first heard of the google phone. I just want to thank the developers who have worked so hard to make our devices better. Google and custom...Cyanogen and others... With the amount of memory on this phone I haven't missed my Cyanogen Rom so much... I've tried the Gingerbread launcher thanks Paul...I've used ADW launcher thanks ADW TEAM. And I've been able to give Sense a real try...like it. I have all the apps from my nexus one with room to spare. I'll never have another blackberry or windows mobile phone and I've had both. I heart android....

My preferred Android build choice is the desire_hd2 build. I have tried out various other builds and one recently, a MIUI build had the new Gingerbread keyboard running on it. After trying it out and liking it I have searched the net to try and find an apk or another way to port the Gingerbread keyboard onto a Desire HD handset, or more specific, onto my HD2. The only way which I have found to do this is through recovery mode on a Desire HD. As far as I know you cant run recovery mode on any Android build on a HD2.

I have downloaded a few zip files which had the system files. I copied them to the Android folder (In my case it was the desire_hd2 folder), created a root folder and moved the system files into the root folder and restarted. Once booted back up I tried to send a sms using the Gingerbread keyboard and a force close message comes up

This has led me to ask the XDA community for help on getting this new keyboard onto our Desire HD builds. I know it can be done for CM6 or MIUI builds but not for Desire HD builds. Any help would be appreciated.

I have tried this link and installed the Gingerbread keyboard successfully. After going through settings to activate the keyboard and then selecting the Gingerbread keyboard from the input selection while in sms, the same force close issue is still present.

It seems the only Android build this force close is affecting is the Desire HD build, or more specifically, the new Sense interface.

Hello,

Its been barely a day that I have purchased X10, came with the stock 2.1 version. I have tried everything I could to try to get the darned WiFi work with my laptop and it just refuses to. I make a WiFi connection, it says "Not in range.." when the laptop which has WiFi is sitting 2 inches away from the phone.

Sometimes, it won't scan. Other times, it will scan and disconnect. And then, I saw it as "connecting.." "disconnected". On the other hand, it has managed to reboot 5 times on its will. I just took the thing out of its box, like seriously? :confused:

And I've searched everywhere, no particular help. I have even done a "repair" from PC Companion. No use.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockjock007:

[XPERIA X10 General] cytokine:
There are always complaints on this forum about color banding on the Xperia's 65k display, so I thought that on my new Galaxy Tablet which boasts '16 million' colors in its specs this issue would not be present.

To my surprise, Xperia's color gradients are a lot smoother.

One example would be the XDA app welcome screen which is very smooth on the Xperia's screen, but shows coarse banding on the Galaxy Tab.

The dithering technique on the Xperia seems a lot more sophisticated and I came to question if Android OS is even capable of displaying over 65536 colors at all.

Any insights into the issue?
[XPERIA X10 General] Wolfbreak:
SE changed it to look better becouse normally it would should look worser with 65k and they didnt implented 16m Colors so they changed this to look better.
[XPERIA X10 General] metcard:
Samsung always fudge their numbers.

I remember buying a samsung monitor, which was the most expensive at the time, advertised as 16+ million colours and the thing done some horrible dithering - Everything had dithering on it! EVERYTHING.

The older LCD 16bit monitor it replaced had no noticeable dithering at all and gradient changes were subtle.

I've never bought a Samsuck product again.

The samsung galaxy S is also doing some weird stuff with its colours, it's blacks are fantastic but everything else is bleh!! and the pixels are about 10X bigger than the X10s.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
The color from 1.6 were noticeably garbage....alot of my favorite wallpapers looked like **** with lines all over....I couldn't even use them. Then SE announced they would not be giving us 16M colors in 2.1 so I was pissed! BUT! I didn't know they were going to do something with the colors...because whatever they did they most certainly did a damn good job because the colors in 2.1 are phenominal! ALL the wallpapers I choose look AWESOME! As for Samsung....I think there super amoled screen is overated...I just sold my Galaxy S to return to the X10...the screen is really nice on the Galaxy, but like I said before the higher resolution on the X10 makes it a very VERY close match IMO.

[XPERIA X10 General] bbsrailfan:
