Hi everyone,
The Labyrinth game is not right at all - the ball moves upwards when the phone is tilted. Very annoying - makes the game very difficult, if at all playable! Or do we have an anti-gravity device?
Any verifications? Any solutions?
Thanks in advance
I am on O2 and have upgraded to the official Android 2.1
EDIT: This only occurs with the paid-for version of the game, not the lite version.
have you tried the calibrator app ?
what happens with that one?
you may need to *#*#307#*#* in phone to enable the emlist to be able to see the calibrator
Thanks Fards for your reply.
I have enabled emlist on the phone and through calibrator saw that the phone was fine - I think there is an issue with the applications involved somehow...
As google street view works very well on compass mode - with right way up etc.
Also tried Asphalt 5 free and that is working (left and right tilt).
Another app - Bubble, also works fine...
Like I said most likely it is somehow with the coding of the games mentioned in the original post...
Thanks and good night
I installed labyrinth light on my streak and there is no problem with the accelerometer, everything work fine.
My streak is the US version with MCR2 installed (android 2.1).

Hi Dalamario and thanks for your input.
Glad to hear yours is working fine
I hope it's not a stupid question but what is MCR2?
Searching for it gave me links for ROM update - didn't know we were able to update ROMs for our devices yet though...
I will try some other games and get back soon.
I still am glad I chose Streak over Iphone 4 though

MCR is Modaco Custom Rom, it's the O2 2.1 rom customized. It's a work in progress so it's still not available to everyone http://android.modaco.com/content/d...r-the-dell-streak-android-2-1-online-kitchen/
When I flashed my device I had trouble with the compass that was not reacting to my movement giving me a static "google sky", but the accelorometer was working fine. Then I recalibrated the compass (making a 8 shape when it's active) and it come back to work normally.
Perhaps your problem is not with the accelerometer but with the compass. Try an app that require the compass, like "gps status" and if it doesn't work, make an 8 shape with the hand (like the infinite symbol) see this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP3d00Hr14o
Thanks again Dalamario for your help.
I followed what you said and realised that the lite version of the game is fine, but the paid-for one has the "bug" somehow.
Thanks again and best wishes
Since my official O2 2.1 update, there are some apps that no longer work correctly - the accelerometer seems reversed. Chalky, Grand Prix Live, Hour Face and I'm sure a couple more that I can't think of right now.

I have the same problem with Exzeus. It seems like games in landscape are fine like sky siege, skies of glory, hawx. But games in portrait have the left / right swapped. I tried the calibration through EMLIST and it did not help.
HyperJump is the same on my o2 Streak Left is Right and Right is Left =S
Also, game called Drop has the same problem

I am running the "Customized Nookie Froyo 0.6.7 CWR for eMMC". I tried Honeycomb on the SD card but it was too slow and didn't want to flash my internal memory with Honeycomb until GA. Most of the applications work quite well. A few don't.
One application that I really want to get working is the Sirius/XM app. I know that many devices have issues with this app. Someone on the "Slatedroid forums" implies that it is related to the Android_ID but this unit (OS) does have a valid Android_ID (although "SIM SERIAL, DEVICE ID and SUBSCRIBER ID are all "null".
Anyway, I am stuck at the infamous "Checking for Updates" screen after attempting to login.
Has anyone gotten past this screen using the Sirius app on the Nook Color running any mod?
Thanks in advance,
JR
I have had the same problem. I cant remember but I think the only time XM worked for me was on the Nook 1.01 software. I havent gotten it to work either. I would love to hear of a workaround as well.
Anyone? There has to be a way to get this working.
I don't supposed changing the "media.stagefright.enable-player" to false in the build.props file would address the "checking for updates". I read a lot about this for issues with streaming issues with the Sirius app when Froyo was just released.
Anyone got this to work?
I finally found the 1.1 version as it was hidden in the market.. but now that it's installed I'm stuck on the "checking for updates" as well
Take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=965301
Edit: Sorry I misread. You're on Froyo. Please disregard post.
I don't think this specific problem is limited to Froyo.The thread you highlighted is more about a program closing. That's not what's happening with the Sirius app.
Specially, I'm seeing this on GTab's Vegan Gingerbread ROM myself.
Just to followup on my own reply.. I was wrong
racks11479 solution worked great for me -- or atleast pointed me in the right direction. After patching the framework.jar file found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955847 My Sirius app started up and is currently running 100%
Note I'm running Vegan Gingerbread (which is based off of CM7)..
Not everything is working - for example the USA Today still closes after launch.

Glad it worked somewhat for your device. Cause I have USA Today on my nook CM7 v3 with my patched framework and it launches fine.
Yeah I don't have a nook (I landed here doing a Sirius search) I have the Viewsonic G-Tablet ..
And I got the USA Today to work, I just needed a newer version. I can't get the latest one from the market as it doesn't show up, but I got a newer one than I had and it loaded up and works great now!

Awesome. Yeah it seems that alot of apps will FC due to the CM7 ROM reporting our IMEI/AndroidID as null. And some apps are reliant on it to function properly.

when I get enough posts to allow me to post in the development section ... ... I'll post something in that thread to see about getting this patch integrated into the ROM to make life easier.
Just a heads up. But the CM7 team is fully aware of the issue an is working on getting a permanent fix to the issue so we won't need this workaround anymore.
Is this ever going to be patched? I just upgraded to the latest cm7 stable, and I still have to patch manually
I know it just came out, but words with friends wont work on my rooted 1.1 nook. Anyone else have any problems or luck with it?

Works for me, but tons of bugs.
- Tiles don't size correctly on the rack
- Last tile is unselectable
- Backs out when selecting a letter for open letter tiles
- Tiles half covered on the rack by the status window
* basically, the tiles on rack are too big
Works great on my DINC though

words with friends help!!!!!!!
Can anyone tell me why i can't get "words with friends" on my x10 mini pro. It can play other games like angry birds and word feud . But it will not let me download the app . Also it say's "words with friends", only needs android( 1.6 )upwards i have (2.1) so dont know why this happening. Has anyone got any ideas??????????PLEASE HELP!!!
didn't work with my old (from ipod touch account).
made a new account and it loads, but, as mentioned above, can't see the tiles in my rack.
My girl has the G1 with stock 1.6 and I believe the makers of Words With Friends (Zynga) removed the app from 1.6 compatibility - it now requires 2.1 and above. She therefore can no longer download it from the Market.
I did find an APK via Google, but it has strange bugs (not the usual bugs with this app) such as she ends up in a game where it is me vs. me, but not her. Have tried all manner of uninstalls, reinstalls, and new WWF accounts. Must be because it is not designed for 1.6 any more.
Does anyone have access to the last well-behaved APK for Android 1.6? It used to work perfectly fine for her.
works fine on CM7, the log on screen is really really really slow, but after that works as well as any other android device, so a lot worse then the ipod version
I'm having a problem with the contact list... it imported the email address for every single person I've ever emailed from the gmail. I literally have thousands of people in the contact list now.
Anybody know how to clear that? I tried clearing data in App manager, that didn't work.
Hi all,
I have a problem with Sygic navigation.
I installed Sygic Navigation, once I start it it says:
De applicatie Mobile Map 10 (proces com.sygic.drive) is onverwachts gestopt
which is dutch for
the application sygic mobile maps 10 (process com.sygic.drive) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again
This keeps on looping forever. I have rebooted and re-installed the app but it doesn't seem to work.
Anyone ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Contact Sygic it may not be SGS2 compatible and or they may have an update .

Sygic aura works fine for me

Seems Mobile Maps 10 doesnt work with GB. I have tried installing it on both the SGS 2 and an Experia Arc and force closes on both. Sygic Aura works but it in my opinion is not as user friendly, lacks menu functions and doesnt display ETA in portrait mode in version 2.13 but does on version 2.0.

Thank you all for your input!
Tebs, what do you mean with 'GB'?
I'm not a big fan of Sygic Aura either, I guess I'll contact Sygic about it.
If someone has an idea, please let me know.
Once I'll have the response from Sygic I'll post it here.

I am probably late to the game but didn't see this anywhere so thought I would just mention - I just flashed this Gingerbread based ROM real quick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092565 and then flashed the APK mentioned here http://www.xda-developers.com/android/skype-2-available-for-other-devices/ and made a quick test call from my netbook to my Streak - It wasn't perfect (could be due to slow network connection and not doing a clean install of the new ROM) but anyway, it did work.
So I just did a quick video call to my parents and confirmed that it works very well - I was also able to switch from the front camera to the back camera.
Asking because I don't know; What is the difference between Skype and Fring? Fring all day with my kids and seems to be the same as what you just did with your parents.
do you need gingerbread for this to work?
yes, I believe so you need gingerbread for this.
hopefully they will eventually release an app for those of us with devices still stuck on official 2.2
Fring is a cool app but I am not sure if they have a desktop version - I have only used it once on a friend's phone. Frankly I have been using Oovoo for some time now to call my parents and it has worked great, but I have MANY more contacts who use Skype and didn't feel like spending the time or energy to try and get them all to switch.
Yes - for sure you need Gingerbread - I took a stab at installing it on Streakdroid 1.9 but it was a no go. As soon as I installed the above ROM and then installed the APK it worked.
As a side note the above ROM seems to be working great - I had been planning to install DJ Steve's Gingerbread ROM but will have to wait until I have some time.

i did on steves gingerbread....dont work. force close.
What would happen if I just change my build.prop to read version 2.3.3?
Are there other areas of the phone that confirm gingerbread?

My guess is it would force close - just changing the version doesn't actually make it Gingerbread so there would be compatibility issues. I will check later since I am going to be playing around with another Streak tonight.
Yep - force close.
OK,
so i think i install every possible Rom on my gtablet , but cant find one with , all those elements working together .

thanks , hope somebody can help
Brilliant corners I think!

Vegan Ginger had that until some of the newer market updates broke them. Who knows if either the ROM has updated with a fix, or there have been more market fixes which changed things.
I decided the camera wasn't important to me (I find the g-tab camera to be worthless anyhow unless you sykpe or other video chat).
I switched ROMs because a working market was more important than my camera (but I agree Flash is a priority as well!)
i like these roms
Vegan Ginger Edition (the newest one) works for me flash apps and browser, camera (not video capture but pictures) {there is no working video chat apps for our tab anyway..yet} I have not tried netflix but am pretty sure it works. and I have had no problems at all with the market however I found a newer market that my tab seems to really like (no market fixes required just a cwr zip.)
I will PM you with all the links

Erm...skype video chat works now.
At least on my TNT Lite 4.4
My 2 cents
I've been using the Vegan Ginger Edition, the newest one and it all works. Netflix, Flash, Camera, etc. My only issue is the audio is not as loud as it is on Flashback or GtabComb. But I pair it to a little bluetooth speaker I picked up and it's great for wacthing Netflix with.

Everything works, no messing around to get stuff working. Plus it is so fast that you need to fasten your seat belt before booting into it or you may get blown out of your chair.
You will need to first flash to a 1.2 bootloader if you are not already there.
No kidding, try it yourself and see.
