You are asking this in the wrong section.

I know a lot of ppl use rock player but it was choppy on a lot of videos I was trying to watch:(

so I looked for a new player and found mvideoplayer and played a 720p 1.38gb mkv file and it played super smooth:D

just thought I'd let ppl know
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] japhule:
Just tried it out. It wont play ac3 sound on my mkvs.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] gotwillk:
i have a few players installed and mvideoplayer is one of them. i also have rock player installed because there are certain files that mvideoplayer will not play, but rock player does. also i'm guessing that 720p mkv file you played was not encoded in High profile because otherwise it would not be smooth.
[Nook Color General] johnopsec:
Based on the reported size of the update, I'm wondering what it really does... I'm sure it does tinker with the browser and wifi as they state but, that is a pretty damned big update file.

So, folks who have gone through the update... What changes do you notice?

What specifically did they do to the wifi? Does it support ADHOC after the update or do we still need to use the patched wpa_supplicant if we need ADHOC support?
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
The browser is faster but otherwise didn't see much change. Update was 161 megs.
[Nook Color General] geekyradical:
According to the B&N forums, it was supposed to fix browser issues with inputting text on sites like Gmail and facebook, as well as fix wifi issues.
[Nook Color General] devis:
Anyone rooted got the Update? Did it break the root?
[Nook Color General] golfprorm:
I did notice that when I wake up the device, it does a better job of reconnecting to my wifi. Occasionally on 1.0.0, I had to toggle wifi to get it to connect, but since the upgrade, it has always connected.

Auto-nooter has been updated to work for 1.0.1. You do have to fully wipe the device before upgrading though.

Sent from my Nook Color
[Nook Color General] rogerdugans:
Browser does seem faster and text entry is more reliable. Those are the only things I have noticed.

The most recent auto-nooter (2.12.18?) is the first one that worked for me, and while it does need the 1.01 update might as well get it now unless your bc is perfect for you as you have it now.
[Nook Color General] pcp123:

What is the screen resolution on the NC ? Just the one screen not across multipule desktops. So if I created a photo what size should it be to fit exactly on the front/main screen ??

Thanks
[Nook Color General] MrOtsKrad:
1024 x 600
[Nook Color General] EugeneKay:
The screen resolution on the Nook Color is 600x1024.

The equation for sizing pictures to use as uncropped backgrounds is (n+1)*h/2, where N = the number of home screens you will be scrolling across and H is the horizontal resolution of the screen. This comes from the fact that the "background" is scrolled half as quickly as the foreground. Note that the notifications bar does mean you will have a lil bit of crop at the top and bottom, or you can set your launcher to hide the bar.

So, for 1 homescreen you would want the picture to be 600x1024, 3 will be 1200x1024, and 7 will be 2400x1024.

[HD2 General] Derek0228:
Sorry to break your bubble, but there's still no Android that can run from NAND yet, so, no, you cant replace WM with android yet. Devs are working on it, tho. As of now, you can only dual boot WM and Android. Frankly, I love the fact that we can have both OS's, I mean, which other phone can do that as good as our beloved HD2 does? And, we also have Ubuntu, and will soon also have Meego and WP7! The HD2 is THE most versatile phone ever!

[G Tablet General] Kaizykat:
My father brought home the G Tablet yesterday after getting it at Office Depot because it was on sale and was the last one left.

I didn't want to open it because I've had my eye on the ADAM tablet and was going to wait for it to come out and compare the two. However, he convinced me to mod the G Tablet to run TNT 2.0.

It worked fine for a while today. I got it up and running, fixed the Market, and was able to download apps and games. Then, I woke it out of sleep mode and the Market started coming up with errors. I figured that I'd just need to turn it off and boot it back up again.

The problem that I'm having is that the thing doesn't want to boot back up. It goes to the ViewSonic screen, then to the G Tablet logo, pauses for a second, then goes back to the ViewSonic screen.

I attempted to do a recovery and see if I could reinstall TNT; it refused. It will see that there is a kernel, but when it goes to install it, I get an exclamation point flashed on screen and then it goes back to the ViewSonic screen (I'm getting really sick of looking at those birds).

Is there any way to fix this, or did I have the shoddy luck to have one with bad hardware?

I didn't use Clockwork to install the firmware. I realize that that might have not been the best choice now.
[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
I haven't had that, probably I'm still stock, but there are threads about getting out of the problem. Use forum search, in this forum. Search titles only, for 'loop'.

Jim
[G Tablet General] Kaizykat:
Thanks.

I tried flashing it again with clockwork installed to no avail. I also tried to set it back to the manufacture default, but encountered the same loop.

Looks like it's going back to Office Depot!
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
If you have clockwork installed then go to advanced and partition the sdcard. I use 2gb, and 0 for swap. Do a wipe data/factory reset, and a wipe cache partition from clockwork also. Problem will likely go away after that. Partitioning the sdcard will remove any data but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Then I would reflash from clockwork something like TnTLite 2.4, or the VegaN Beta 3 rom. You can do that from clockwork also.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
x2 on the sd re-partition, it will most likely fix the issue. Many users have reported similar issues.

Here's the problem -- this is very common and exchanging it probably won't help as you might eventually have the problem again. You already have cm on the device, so you are 90% there already. :D

In the newest ADWLauncher you can create a shortcut to the App Drawer much like creating any other shortcut - long-press the screen, select 'custom shortcut', 'custom activity', 'launcher actions.'

Using Desktop Visualizer you can create a shortcut to almost anything EXCEPT the ADW option does NOT show up in the shortcut list. Even when I click "other" in Desktop.V.

Anyway around this? I'm theming and using the 1x1 widget b/c it makes the icons larger than standard shortcuts. Everything is great except this!
[Android Themes] herrhans:
Bump this.

I also want to know, any one?
[Android Themes] melissapugs:
Another bump
[Android Themes] cjward23:
It annoying isn't it, something so simple and its no an option.

But I have figured out away to do it.

1. Add a shortcut to open the app draw in the normal way.

2. Place the icon in the location you want it

3. Long press on the app draw icon and change the icon to a completely transparent icon.

4. Now create the desktop visualizer widget/shortcut in the normal way but when you choose action select none.

5. Make sure in adw setting you have overlap Widgets ticked.

6. Move your desktop Visualizer shortcut so it is just above the transparent icon that will open the app draw.

7. Long press the desktop Visualizer shortcut, select edit and the resize it so it completely covers than transparent icon. I would recommended keeping the desktop Visualizer shortcut 1x1.

8. In adw settings hit restart adw and you should be good to go, the app draw icon should be on top of the desktop Visualizer shortcut.

Hope this works for you because it does work for me

How to force drivers to install:

Thanks to gravis86

WARNING: SELECTING THE WRONG DRIVER TO A DEVICE MAY BREAK THINGS...

1. Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management >Device Manager

2a. NS Right-Click "Android 1.0", and click "Update Driver Software..."

2b. NS4G Right-Click "Nexus s", and click "Update Driver Software..."

3. Click "Browse my computer for driver software"

4. Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"

5. Click "Have Disk..."

6. Browse to folder containing the driver, then click OK

7. It will show a list of drivers contained in that folder, select the appropriate one, and click next.

8. It might tell you the driver is unsigned / not verified to work / for the wrong device, etc. As long as you are sure it is the correct driver, then install it. Remember, you are smarter than Windows.

How to install ADB and Fastboot:

1. download and place in the root of your C:\ drive

2. extract here (not into a sub folder)

3. now open up control panel

4. find system

5. goto advanced settings

6. goto environmental variables

7. in the box that says "system variables" scroll down to find a variable "Path"

8. highlight it

9. click edit

10. add this to the end

yes the ; is needed

11. click ok

Now when you open cmd (command prompt) you can use "adb" or "fastboot" anywhere with out locating the folder first

You should be able to do this:

I have followed the directions to the letter and when I type fastboot devices it just goes back to command prompt. I tried typing fastboot oem unlock and it just said waiting on device. Adb devices typed produces "list of devices attached" I boot the phone into fastboot mode and and the usb is plugged in but I keep getting the same results. Am I preparing the phone incorrectly?The adb worked with my Vibrant but the fastboot failed there as well. I would greatly appreciate any and all help you may offer. As I am sure you can tell I am another one of those ignorant nubies.LOL:)
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
have you installed the usb drivers?

you will have to force them to install
[Nexus S General] tenbeau:
Yes I have. adb works with my Vibrant but fastboot does not and neither one works with the Nexus s. I have read and reread and followed directions but nothing seems to work. Should I be looking to do something on the phone other than booting into fastboot mode? The Nexus S shows fastboot mode at the top of the screen and I have assumed that I just use the computer from there. On my Vibrant booting into recovery does not show anything about fastboot. I really do appreciate your help I am trying very hard to learn quickly so I can be of some help instead of a burden

I don't know how to force them to install. I went in an opened the folder and I assume they were installed. I do have usb debugging enabled

Edit Just copied usb drivers to C:\android and c:\android/tools and still the same results. I have done everything I can think of but i guess I am not getting the drivers installed properly.
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
to force them, go into control panel-> administrator tools->computer management

then goto device manager in the sidebar.

I cant remember what the device is called but you should know when you find it.

right click and hit update drivers.

hit browse for drivers and find the drivers in C:\android\google-usb_driver

Note: phone has to be in fastboot to be able to install the drivers

edit: I forgot the drivers opps

[Nexus S General] tenbeau:
there is no video but I did read the directions and I believe I have done all that they state. Should my PC say installing drivers when I plug my phone in? It did and said one driver failed to install.
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
yea.

If you don't see a video (at the top) disable ad blocking

also the driver that failed try to force it (using previous method)

WARNING: SELECTING THE WRONG DRIVER TO A DEVICE MAY BREAK THINGS...

Sometimes Windows needs to be forced to use a driver that we know works, but Windows thinks doesn't. This is similar to what mazodude posted, but is just a few steps further. To do this:

2. Right-Click "Unknown Device" or whatever it's called, and click "Update Driver Software..."

3. Click "Browse my computer for driver software"

@gravis86, very good explination will post in 1st post
[Nexus S General] mmas0n:
Just wanted to post my results...

I was using the correct drivers, but was installing them while the phone was booted and connected. I could use ADB and mount the file system, but could not use fastboot. I then discovered that if I installed the drivers while the phone was booted into the bootloader and connected, it detected the device differently and fastboot worked.

Now rooted + custom recovery. Awesome.

Thanks @mmas0n will add to first
[Nexus S General] brmayhem:
Got a problem guys,

I already have ADB and the drivers installed and working properly (well at least I think so, being that I can 'see' my device on cmd)

My problem is unlocking the bootloader. I have the device in fastboot mode and after typing fastboot oem unlock on cmd I get a 'Waiting on device' warning and nothing happens on the phone. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus S General] gravis86:
Fastboot drivers are different from the ADB drivers... Make sure the Fastboot drivers are installed.
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
when you are in fastboot, use the instruction on the first page to force the drivers to update.
[Nexus S General] brmayhem:
Thank you guys.

For future reference for noobs like myself, I had to upgrade the Android 1.0 driver listed on the device manager (which will only show up once the phone's booted in fastboot mode) with the OP's drivers. Just be cautious to select the correct version of your OS.
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
im on windows 7 this should work right?
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
yes it will work on windows xp to 7
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
wait im stuck

7. It will show a list of drivers contained in that folder, select the appropriate one, and click next.

which driver?
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
well do you have 32 or 64 bit

x86 = 32bit

x64 = 64bit

you can check by right clicking on my computer
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
ok how do I install the fastboot drivers?
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
have a look at the first post under the picture
[Nexus S General] gravis86:
If you are installing the ADB driver, it should be titled "Android ADB Interface"

If you are installing the Fastboot driver, it should be titled "Android Bootloader Interface"

But to install the Fastboot driver the phone first has to be on the Fastboot screen.
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
wait, so are the fastboot drivers included?
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
yes I included them in the drivers download

I put all the drivers you need into it
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
so for fastboot I use google-usb_driver and theirs a lot of stuff in there after that what do I click or just click the google usb folder and thats it?
[Nexus S General] theimpaler747:
Stuck this post due to it's usefulness ;)
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
depending on which type of system (32 or 64bit)

when installing the driver point it at either the x86(32bit) or x64(64bit) folder and it will chose the best driver from the subfolders
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
wait im so sorry just dont want to break my phone where are the fastboot drivers located what specific folder is it the google-usb_driver or is the X64 driver I have a 64 bit pc
[Nexus S General] mazodude:
you can't break your phone by installing wrong drivers. all that will happen is you won't be able to communicate with it.

use the drivers in the x64 folder.
