Hi

Does anyone else have a problem with the Google books app on Galaxy Tab? Specifically with the latest book from Dan Brown - The Lost Symbol.

Edit:

just confirmed - will all the books I have downloaded, paid and free one's.

It misses the last (few) pages/lines of each chapter. Very, very annoying.

The same book appears just fine on my Galaxy Vibrant device - I see all the pages of each chapter.

I have re-installed the app, removed and re-added the books to my device - no difference. On the Galaxy Tab, it keeps on missing the last few pages of each chapter.

I even opened an issue with Google-books, days ago, and did not get any response pack.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

I noticed that in Wind in the Willows, but there were one or two others where it did not happen. If I switched to original pages, they text was there. I'm not sure if the paid ones have the scanned pages though, as I haven't bought any yet.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] quitetall:
can post screenshots and version number of the books app?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] BuglessFan:
Wind in the Willows is a free download on eBooks. It repros with every version of Books with flowing text (original scanned version lets you finish each chapter). So you have one example you can make your own screenshots of the bug with freely. Arthur Machen's Great God Pan is a second free book with the bug.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] bert269:
Google confirmed this bug

I did look and found that Google has confirmed this to be a bug with the ebook reader on the Android - 'their techs are working on this'
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] ghostparty13:
Hope google fixes this, excessively annoying....

fyi, I can confirm that this problem occurs even on paid books :(
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] bert269:
Yep. . . .

I returned all my Google books for a refund and went back to Kindle app. . .

Until Google fix it.

It is also confirmed to be only Tab related, since the tab -failing books are just fine on the Viibrant.

Go to paypal then navigate to donation then create the button you want. then right click the image then hit save. Then copy that link next to the button you created. Then go to your xda account then go to where you want to post the button go to the bottom options where it say upload image go to that button you saved when you input the button where you want to post it highlight it then at the top options hit insert link it looks like a link out of a chain then paste that link in there. It sound confusing but it's not.

Trying to install Vaelpak 3.0 and I am having 1 hell of a time. I'm thinking it has something to do with my radio wimax pri nv ect.... because earlier in the week I tried flashing the combo and everything went to hell on my phone. I since then had to flash back to the previous radio and then had vp 2.3 running fine again. After that I learned that it was kernel specific problems with older HTC kernels so I flashed netarchy's and then went back to the radio combo and had this problem with my CPU load at 100% and always running at near 1ghz. Then I learned if your rom is not based on the 3.3 that the newest PRL with continue to overload your CPU the entire time. I hadn't gotten this problem really fixed by the time I found VP 3.0 and figured flashing this would just fix my problem with the newest PRI because its based on the 3.3 update.

After a full wipe (data, 2x cache, 2x dalvik) I flashed 3.0 only to get stuck in a white screen boot loop. So I DLed the file from another link moved it manually to my SD and flashed that... same problem. Then I decided I would restore my 2.3 through RA install rom manager and change my recovery over to clockwork to try to install the rom. No go. Then I flashed a previous version of 2.1 used rom manager to put RA back on (I've found this more reliable but at this point who the hell knows). Went into recovery and restored my backup made as of this friday. Still having the problems with the CPU load so I went back to recovery and flashed the older radio combo but noticed this doesn't have NV on it(not sure what NV is either). But all seemed to be working fine for moment until 2.3 started randomly restarting on me. So now my 2.3 isn't working and can't get 3.0 to flash.

Next thing I thought to do was to wipe all again flash 3.0 and then flash netarchy's kernel over the htc #15. BAM!! I get it to run through the boot into the set up menu asking for my gmail account. I enter my account info and wait, wait, wait, then it says cannot get reliable connection to google servers (also I notice that my data instead of a 3g icon says EvDo). Well now this can't be good. I try to turn on my wifi it says that wifi cannot perform search. I enter my network manually cannot find network. I've tried updated profile pri and everything else from settings and always get same error with communications saying call sprint(don't wanna do this will immediately void my warranty I'm thinking). Now the last thing left for me to check is if I can get 2.3 up again and check my wifi ect... through that.

Wipe, Wipe, Wipe, flash older radio combo, flash previous NV that wasn't in combo as far as I could tell, restore 2.3. All seems to be going well until I try my wifi. Cannot search again. WTF?? then instantly black screen to no where. Pull battery try again, get into the settings and then black screen back to Vaelpak boot animation. I am completely lost here I could really use some help. Like I said in the beginning I have a sneaking suspicion it has something to do with the radios combo ect... but can't figure it out on my own.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crimeslunk:
Well in case this has happened to anyone else and it is likely to happen somewhere down the road from people upgrading to roms based of the 3.7 update. The quickest fix I found was.

1. DL Unrevoked Forever from web page and flash it

2. Find a stock ruu for the 3.7 or do what I did and just DL Sprint Lovers PC36IMG.zip place in root of SD card and boot into hboot. Install the ruu.

3. Go to settings>software updates and update the PRI and the Profile

4. Remove the PC36IMG.zip from root of your SD card

5.(only applicable if you used the stock ruu) take your recovery of choice name it PC36IMG.zip and place in root of SD card. Boot into HBoot and install

then remove that from root as well.

6. Flash the Rom you were wanting to flash. This will take care of all Radio, Wimax, PRI, NV, and other problems between 3.7 based roms, Kernels and Radios.

Hopes this helps someone along the way.

I saw on NookDevs.com about the original nook needing to use ADB to change some files to allow for WPA-PEAP Wifi connections. Would that work the same for the Nook Color?
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
So you need 802.1x? Have you tried configuring it as much as you can in the wifi settings, then running this and configuring it the "rest of the way"? I haven't tried it on the NC yet, but it worked on my Nexus One to connect to my work wifi.

How susceptible is the screen to scratches. Is the thin plastic film covering the display intended as a screen protector or can it safely be removed.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
It holds like hell. This film it is not like many, which is not usable after few days. From my site is amazing. Score for LG :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] inoxuno:
I wonder if the screen without the protective film is easy to scratches.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] zcz9g1:
Did you remove the film?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
No, I didn't. It perfectly fits and I have not reason for do that. I tried scratch direct display on edge and it seems, that this plastic is hard, but it is possible to scratch it relatively simple. BUT I haven't too much experience with touch displays, and of course - this is not too much expensive phone which should be scratch resistive.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bluviper:
maybe if you have found a perfect replacement for the default screen protector film, try using a scotch tape on the edge, then simply peel it off together with the film protector.

or will it not work? *lol*
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kite86:
I removed original screen protector, and after 1 month of use, even tho i payd attention to the phone i got 2 little scratches in the middle of the screen

Obviously is not a gorilla glass, but simple plastic ;)

i took the protector off and after 2 days is full of scratches, keep it on.

You can safely reboot your phone." But i have noticed that during the process 2 black lines appeared at the HTC logo and hangs.

I can Power+VolD to Hboot but im stuck at HTC logo with 2 black lines. It seems i can no longer boot my phone.

I have to pop up the battery and tried again but no luck..

I had the same thing!

I went on this page http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/

downloaded PB99IMG_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49 .00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.zip (third one from above)

, renamed it to PB99IMG.zip

and put it on sdcard and flashed it in bootloader and everything back to normal!

I tried downgrading but fail.Now waiting for more info how to install custom rom

i found the above solution in forums

But when i do it it says me that " Incorrect CID Update Fail " do u want to restart now ..

WTF is happening ..

What should i do ?
[Desire General] 3722:
You should not get this error if you are truly on that version

Are you sure you are downloading this

http://www.shipped-roms.com/downloa...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_143921_signed.exe

If it indeed gives you CID error than this wasn't your original firmware.

In that case make a goldcard and flash a generic WWE RUU or the Asian one again.
[Desire General] iphanty:
goldcard

I had exactly the same problem, but already rooted and had AmonRa recovery. My device is also a new PVT-4... luckily I had a goldcard, and did a nand backup.

I do not know of any solution, except Goldcard one, but hardly possible, since you cannot boot the device. if somehow you manage to get to your CID, look at this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7826990&postcount=8

Make sure u did everything right and it should work ;) hope it helps :)
[Desire General] m4dm4n123:
Dude, did you try booting the updated Alpharev CWM recovery through ADB ? Or if you can still enter fastboot, try unrevoked one more time, but this time with custom recovery (updated CWM). This should solve the MISC problem and allow you to flash custom ROMs.

Also, when in fastboot or recovery, did you try creating a goldcard, also through ADB?

If this doesn't help, i think it's time for warranty...
[Desire General] aamszia:
some one posted this solution will this work ?

got desprate while my friend Desire is semi bricked.

usb , wifi , ADB is not worked...constant reboot happened...

tried to flash almost RUU from http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/ without success

i knew my success key to solve this problem is creating goldcard to flash the RUU

I cannot get CID for goldcard...because ADB, wifi and usb not worked..only fastboot is worked

I tried to create goldcard using nexus one and my sdcard...

1.format my nexus sdcard using fat32 partitiion.

2.generate the reserve CID with goldcard helper (you can download it from market)

3.i am follow guide from http://www.droid-den.com/android-gui...te-a-gold-card

from step 12 to step 19 (using SDcard adapter with my pc)

4.put that goldcarded sdcard to the semi bricked desire

5. flash RUU rom you want....(please also do some research before you do this)

Sucesss!!
[Desire General] MichelN:
You clearly don't know wat your doing, you already might have bricked it by flashing your asia rom with a wwe rom, you can't flash it if you don't have a goldcard. :rolleyes:

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rothnic:
I found an interesting article on the android dev blog here: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/09/one-screen-turn-deserves-another.html

The problem stems from developers assuming that you are using a phone, and a phone is normally oriented in a way where it is taller than it is wide. However, with the influx of tablets we are seeing that landscape is now becoming an option for a standard orientation.

What do we get from this article? 1) It is up to the developer to fix their application/game so that it can handle either standard orientation. 2) Viewsonic cannot fix this problem.

We need to contact each developer and let them know what the problem is. Anyone can help by listing what applications you know have the accelerometer issue. Then post if you contacted them, or if you didn't post their contact information. I can then send a mass email with an explanation to them.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Nospin:
This is very true, though I expect that with the influx of tablets most developers will do this themselves. But if you have a favorite app not working by all means nobody should be afraid to give them a shout.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epakrat75:
This commonly happens when the phone hasn't been properly wiped before flashing. Either 1) Get into CWM via the hardware keys and delete the user data / cache or 2) Revert to JFD through ODIN and re-flash. I've seen both work when the phone boot loops like it sounds like it's doing.

Well, yes, you'd be ABLE to, but it wouldn't have the puzzle piece functionality. The puzzle piece implementation of the lockscreen is a part of touchwiz, which is the launcher for galaxy s phones. You'd be able to get the lockscreen but puzzle pieces wouldn't work.

Google Sky Maps. I just installed this again and am getting weird behavior. As I rotate up above the horizon everything shifts towards the west, and I can't see the sky. I used the new time shift feature to watch a sunrise..... Sun went below the horizon at sunrise?

Using Bonsia ROM, not sure if this is a 2.2 Froyo problem or what. Searches bring up mag calibration, but this seems more profoundly wrong.
[Epic 4G General] Orbiting234:
It's not a Froyo problem, the compass in the Epic seems all wonky and I've never gotten it to work quite right.
[Epic 4G General] b3nny:
I never had that problem in Eclair; sky map would function almost perfectly. I upgraded to stock Froyo and I have the same problem (and yes, I did the terminal emulator fix).
[Epic 4G General] Orbiting234:
You must be in the great minority. I have yet to see an Epic that consistently gets its compass headings reliably correct nor have I ever seen Google Sky Map move nearly as smooth as any other android phone (very jerky).
[Epic 4G General] MaxPatlick:
My google sky also worked perfectly under stock eclair, but once I started futzing around with custom roms this and froyo that, **** got weird..

I DID however find a fix.. you need to calibrate your compass.. There's a couple ways, one long and complicated involving terminal emulators (which btw: didnt fix the problem for me) and the other, seemingly silly, "hold your phone and wave it around in a figure eight motion" which did the trick..

so.. go outside, preferably where lots of people can see you, hold your with your arms fully extended and wave it around in a figure eight..

The sillier you look, and the more people that can see you, the more likely it is to work :D
[Epic 4G General] mxcoldhit:

[Epic 4G General] b3nny:
Figure 8 trick didn't work for me, which is weird cuz I have a compass app on my phone and it almost perfectly points north, same goes for google maps. Any suggestions as to why sky maps isn't functioning correctly?
[Epic 4G General] Migital Warfare:
I wish google would fix the night mode on this app. It doesn't do a lot of good to have everything on the screen a dim red, but then have a blazing white menu pop up whenever you want to find something specific in the sky. How, exactly, is that supposed to help you keep your night vision while star gazing?
[Epic 4G General] akenis:
Just saw a guy with a stock Epic and his G Sky works fine. Must be a froyo thing. Don't think it has anything to do with the compass calibration...mine seems to be fine in compass apps. This problem is more related to the accelerometers... the app inverts axis or something when you rotate the phone above the horizon.

Does anyone have it working right on a 2.2 ROM?
[Epic 4G General] akenis:
Did some more testing using the app GPS status. It gives pitch and roll readout. In my case as I increase pitch or roll above 90deg, the readings stop at about 86 degrees and then don't change.

For some reason we're capped to less than 90 deg. Any ideas? Can someone with 2.1 try GPS status and see what kind of pitch indication you get if you go above vertical?
[Epic 4G General] akenis:
.... and Paper Airplane game doesn't work. Great free game that uses pitch and roll of the phone to control the plane flying through obstacle course.

With 2.2..... can't pitch up, and the plane won't climb! So I really don't think it's a G maps problem. Something is wrong with our 2.2 inclination settings.

Edit: Can a MOD change the name of this thread to include "Froyo inclination error"?

Edit: Huge thread in another area of xda. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803242 regarding sensor calibration. Kind of deep for me.

Does this work in stock 2.2? Anyone?
[Epic 4G General] akenis:
Alright... I'm back on a stock DI18, full data wipe. Only thing installed is Sky maps and Sensor Debug.

Sensor Debug values are now (on a flat surface):

Pitch -179/179 (pitching up, it goes up to -150 and stops. or down to 150)

Roll 1 (will go from +/- 30)

Z Force 9.69

The same values I had with a clean install of Bonsai 1.4.

With my original install on Bonsai 1.3 (I had hit the calibrate option from Display settings, and run the su command for system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha) and the z axis was -9.69, pitch values where +/- 86.

If anyone has a working g sky maps, on any build... please get Sensor Debug and post your sensor values (laying flat, and how they change as you pitch/roll the phone).

Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] akenis:
Hey come on... where's the community support here!

This isn't just G sky prob. Using the app sensor debug, my pitch and roll values are all over the place. When I pitch past vertical, the roll axis starts to change? Somehow the axis values are getting mixed up....

Tried the same test on a Hero and another Galaxy S. There pitch smoothly goes 0 to -90 when vertical to -180 when upside down....with no change to roll axis.
[Epic 4G General] b3nny:
Update: Just odin'd back from DK28 to DI18, and I'm still having the same sky map problem,even though before I never had it.
[Epic 4G General] akenis:
Finally! Glad you are having problems too. Hope we can get this figured out ASAP.... driving me batty.

I'm going to start a new thread... this source of the Google Sky Maps problem is larger. We're either dealing with a calibration error in the accelerometers or dare I saw hardware. Please join in the new thread.

For now, download Sensor Debug from the market. Also, get the values from /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg.

Let's nail this!
