[G Tablet General] LeviathanUltima:
I just ran the *#*#4636#*#* command on the phone part of the G-tab and I notice that the wireless-n only goes up to 26Mbps. My Nexus One is able to get up to 72Mbps. This test is done where both of the device is about 2 feet away from the wireless-n router and I am NOT holding any of the device. There is also a clear line of sight for both devices to the router. I know the G-tab has wireless-n, but my question is if it's enabled on the firmware. (btw, I am using TnT lite 2.3)
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
Unsure as to that, but if you are interested in better wifi performance, I'd try out pershoot's kernel at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=903505 with his latest drivers. His driver apparently uses the latest wifi chip firmware so it ought to better than the wifi driver stock on our G Tablets, and people seem to be reporting good results with it.

Hi!

I have problem with installing my own apk file.

If I create some project in Eclipse and export apk file (doesn't matter if signed or not), even from empty project, and try to install it on phone, I get message: "Could not open xxx.apk as APK file". I'm using Darky's v8.0. I tried no-wipe and then wipe version, but still the same.

What's weird: I've created some simple project few days earlier and apk from this project works fine. Even when I export new one now. But any other apk from new projects doesn't work.

:confused:

I have recently purchased an LG Vortex that comes with the Android 2.2 operating system installed. I have looked into rooting my phone with z4root and have successfully temporarily rooted my phone. I would rather keep my phone unrooted, but if it is absolutely necessary I will root it permanently with z4root.

My question is this: How can I connect to my company wifi and use apps that require wifi?

I can successfully connect to my corporate wifi through the 802.1x EAP protocol. The problem comes when trying to access any of the apps that require internet (I am forcing Verizon's data plan not to be used--using wifi only due to 150MB limit on my data to save $$ per month). None of my apps seem to work--internet browser, Market, Gmail, Google Calendar, etc...

On my company pc I know that within internet explorer the box is checked that says "Use automatic configuration script" and gives an "Address" that is in the format of "..../proxy.pac" It looks like my work uses a proxy for things to connect to the internet. I have no such place to put this information in my LG Vortex. I downloaded an app that seemed promising called "Proxy Settings" which will allow me to enter in the following Hostname and Port. When I tried to enter the "..../proxy.pac" as the hostname it gave me an error stating "The hostname you typed is not valid."

Is there an app or something that will allow me to use my apps when connecting to my corporate wifi? Is it a proxy setting thing or a VPN thing? I am not sure. I am open to any and every idea so that I can use my phone's online features while connected to my company's wifi.

FYI - I have friends that have iPod touches and they are able to connect to the internet with some apps internet browsing and downloading apps, but they have a similar issue of not being able to use all of their apps as well. I believe they were able to put the "..../proxy.pac" address in their devices somewhere.

Thanks!

To follow up on what b3ltazar said, you may need to do the market fix in order to see google voice in the market. After the fix you will see google voice and can do the update. It will work after doing the update.

Thanks

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] it2steve:
I have it working... The workaround was to take the google voice on my phone, make a Titanium backup, copy those files over to the tab, and restore through Titanium backup as well. Afterwords, when you start voice, it walks you through the setup process and when it gets to the part trying to find the phone just back out of everything.

I've done this a couple times and it worked pretty well. You can text IF you have a google voice number.

Good luck!

That isn't really necessary anymore. Just update to the latest in the market, make sure the phone number you choose in Google voice has been added to your Google voice account, and text away...

Slightly off-topic: Google Voice, and voice calls from Gtab, and in general?

Hi,

I have a Gmail and Google Voice account, and I guess that one thing that I've never quite understood is what Google Voice is, or is suppose to do, esp. vis-a-vis voice calls.

When I first got signed up for it, and when I'm in Google Voice (on a PC), I know that I can initiate a "voice call", but from what I can tell, the way that that works is that when you do a voice call from Google Voice, you tell it the number that you want to call (the "called number"), then Google Voice calls that called number, and calls you back on your REGULAR phone number. In other words, if the number that I have configured in Google Voice for myself is xxx-xxx-xxxx, when I initiate a call to yyy-yyy-yyyy, I get an incoming call on xxx-xxx-xxxx.

Then, awhile ago, Google announced that you could call from your Gmail account, and I was really surprised when I tried that. When I was in Gmail, I initiated a call to xxx-xxx-xxxx, and, I was able to talk to the called party ON MY PC, i.e., kind of like a "Skype out" phone call.

So, now that I have my Gtab, I was wondering: Is it possible to do the latter thing from my Gtab, i.e., to call a real phone number (xxx-xxx-xxxx) from my Gtab, and talk to that real phone via my Gtab, totally over Wifi on my end?

I've seen some posts and info about setting up sipdroid and pbx something or other, but I'm wondering if it's possible to do with just some combination of Google Voice app and Gmail app on the Gtab?

Thanks,

Jim

What version of Google Voice works for stock rom?

I have the same problem as many in this and 2 other threads.

Unable to get Google voice app to fully install. Does it only install / work on an UNstock gtab?

I can go to google voice in the browser and sent and receive texts, fine. But of course then you get no notification when messages come in.

As I said, I am runnning stock gtab, no mods. I was able to search and found Google voice in the gmarket but it gave me choices to sms or download to phone, or pc. I chose PC.

I click on install and at the screen where it asks for number confirmation, I select my cell phone, it returns error can not verify the number. (it is the same number I used to originally setup the gvoice on pc). I can not get past the voicemail setup page either, skip doesn't work and then back won't work and I am locked up.

There are so many great threads on this forum, but it seems many repeated questions because they remain unanswered, or perhaps there are so many version of tabs, the problems and solutions are ROM specific.

Its almost like we need sub forums, if running this, search here...

re: Google voice copied from phone

I appreciate your reply.

a few questions:

1. is you tab rooted?

(I am reading like crazy to get all this, but there is so much! I thought TB only works on rooted units, but not sure if it requires a certain rom)

2. which rom are you running?

If I ever get this, I'm going to create a matrix: root - rom - apps - working y/n

I have gmarket, no mods.

I go to market and see no "updates"

I searched for, and installed google voice, no luck.

I will go back and look up installing gapps, I seem to recall it requires some mods first and that is what I was trying to avoid until I am sure I want to keep the unit.

I am on the fence. I never realized how (don't boo me) "hooked on windows I am" I love my android phone, but when it comes to the things I like to do on a bigger screen, as much as I love the touch feature, I really am so much more productive on a laptop. I'm sure its a learning curve, and I LOVE playing with new technology - and this sight is LOADED with all you need to know about the tab. But I am a step by step person and I feel like I am spending more time searching than learning.

Its just me .. kudo's to all the folks that help and dev here .. its a very amazing team!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
Sorry for the delay in repsonding, I didn't have this thread tagged to notify me of replies.

Been busy messing with the new CM7 Beta for the Gtab.

Ok so, answers:

1) Yes my tab is rooted, the stock OS out of the box sucked the big dill pickle. I was rooted and customed within two hrs of taking it out of the box.

2) After messing around with the five or so availale ROMS, I decided to make the VEGAn 5.1 beta my daily driver, it and TnT lite are the most stable IMHO, I chose VEGAn over TnT because the news and weather genie was absent from TnT and the VEGAn web browser offer much more flexibility as far as options go. I'm a news junkie!

Also the On-Screen soft keys on the notification bar [HOME, MENU, and BACK] are fantastic additions since the keys on the device don't light up, which makes it real B!@%# when using the device in a poorly lighted room.

3) As for TB, it is my understanding it will only work with rooted devices.

4) It is also my understanding that TB will work with MOST Android devices and most ROMS whether stock or customed. YES TB will work with stock OS ROMS provided the device is rooted. And yes it is possible to Root your device WITHOUT unlocking the BOOTLOADER, both my N1 and GTAB are rooted via this method. N1 with Universal Androot and my GTAB with Z4root.

Re:voice calls on Gtab

I don't have many people to call and those I do call i prefer video, but i have placed a few Skype calls on the Gtab and it works just fine for voice. Doesn't give the option for video, almost like it doesn't recognize the camera. i tried Fring and when i go to do a test call it makes a hideous noice and i have to force shut down the app. So for voice Skype is great.:)

Google Voice in the Market.

For those who after the market fix are still unable to find the google voice app, here is what I found. There are 3 different fingerprints floating around. When I could not find voice in the marketplace I started experimenting with the diffrerent fingerprints, and to my surprise each one gives different search results, with diffrerent apps available / missing. On my tab, with the samsung Tab fingerprint I was able to locate the google voice app, but with the standard mahimahi 2.2 i could not
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tekrhino:
Thanks for the heads up!

So the fingerprint is changed via build.prop edit?

Would either one of these mess up the VS GTab?

All the standard disclaimers re: blowing up your tablet etc. are all still in effect. however the fingerprint method significantly improves the plain vanilla clear market cache fix, at least on my tab. YMMV ;)

What version of Google Voice will allow you to skip the number verification. I updated after fixing my market, but still get stuck on "Verify your number"...

I am running Google Voice 0.4.2.13... not sure of the latest version.

UPDATE: According to my phone 0.4.2.13 is the latest one in the Market. I rebooted again and now I can sign in to GV, but then all it does is force close when I click Next to verify the number on my "phone" (tablet). Maybe an uninstall, reboot, reinstall? IDK

4.2.13 is the version I have, and it seems to work except for the calling fact. That is the last update from the market, and it did allow me to get past the frozen next button. However the app is very sluggish during the initial setup every button press required a long wait.

Would anyone mind either posting a step-by-step or send me a PM with info on what I need to set in my GV account and what I need to do on the tablet?

Hi guys any help will be appreciated!!!!

I would like to know what will be the best method for using Android right now since there are a few different methods for running it. When I ask best i'm asking most stable, fast and consumes less battery. For now i'm running from Ram with darkstone that seemed to be running the best from a few other Roms I tried. I know their should be three method the regular rom, Darkstone ram, and Nand!
[HD2 General] StarLog:
First off you need the latest firmware loaded on your HD2. The easiest way, without rooting, that is working is SD version. The Android directory is loaded on the SD card, and then you execute two commands from that directory to start Android.

am running the CORE DROID version, it has less battery drain then what I have experienced on any others.

The nice thing about using an SD is that you can load as many different versions as you wish to test. Then make up your mind.
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
Check my signature for a link to my tutorial (sticky on this thread, btw) on how to install Android to your phone. This was written when SD was the only method. It is the easiest way to see if you will like Android on your phone and does not require you to unlock or HSPL your phone. If you don't like it, you can simply delete it from your card and never look back :)
[HD2 General] klee2000:
First off thanks guys for your reply but that was not the question! I am currently running android from ram that was created by darkstone and I consider it to be the best Android that I have came across compared to running from the original way. My question is what would be the best to run? Nand, SuperRam or the original way from the sd.
[HD2 General] Snarksneeze:
Which is best: Coke, Pepsi or Sprite?

For me, NAND is the only way to go, but requires your to HSPL and thus break your warranty.

For some, SuperRAM is the fastest, but doesn't include Sense.

For others, SD is the easiest method, but could cause future damage to your SD card (1,000 write limit).
