I have tried however no luck. It said that it cannot install. There are other folks who tried it on the XOOM, and other android phones, and so far no luck. Not sure if Skype has locked it to the Thunderbolt. Also you should consider that the Atrix is a dual core, so there might be voice and video issues anyway.

This would be great if it worked on our phones

no luck here either... hopefully we can get this working soon!

Now if we can only figure out which shared library it is, then we might be able to make something for the atrix! Just an idea.

bottom line, it will not work on any non-Thunderbolt phone running Froyo. Period. The FFC drivers are not the same.

App Inventor?

Has anyone figured out how to get the droid eris to work with app inventor? From what I've heard everyone's having a lot of trouble with it. I'm on a mac, btw, and I've been mounting the phone as a disk drive with no success.
I just sent my request for an invite yesterday, so obviously have not heard back yet. I don't think there are many that have gotten theirs yet either... Just for fun, I did install the appinventor-extras and it did recognize my phone, so I hope that's a good start. Running Windows 7 32bit.
Do you have a Droid Eris as well? And yah, I think it has something to do with running it on a mac because it isn't compatible with HTC Sync which contains most of the drivers I need.
Have an Eris but do not have Sync set up. Already had adb installed so probably just used the the ones that were already added in.
When I get my invite I will get it to work with the Droid Eris. Btw, if you're on a mac, ubuntu works really well dual booted, if thats your thing.
Does anyone know the extent of apps that you can make with this thing? Like, how complicated are we going to be able to get? I'd love to make a mashup of my favorite home replacements...

Yah, it's surprisingly in depth actually. So far, I've noticed there's a function which can force a text, an "activity starter" (which allows you to open apps on the phone), and basic textbox and image components, to name a few.
just got my invite about an hour and a half ago and I still cant get my phone to connect to app inventor... I tried using the custom .inf and that didnt work. it wouldnt even recognize it. i am going to use the emulator for now.
if anyone finds a working driver please upload it.
I have a question to anyone who has access to app inventor. Does anyone else's phone reboot when loading an app onto it? Also in google chrome every time I open the blocks editor it makes me download a new jar file.
AcidRoot, It's normal to download the file everytime. And I don't have problems with my Eris rebooting, but mine doesn't work with AppInventor (I was invited).

[Q] Netflix on Fascinate (APK LINKED)

So, it's just been announced that certain phones have Netflix app for Android (HTC Incredible, Nexus One, and EVO 4G with Android 2.2 installed. It’s also supported on the Nexus S and Nexus One with Android 2.3 installed.) while others will have it eventually.
Is it possible to get this apk and try it on our phones? Its a free app, so I don't see why passing it out on XDA would be against the rules.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
(mods, if this is considered bad, idk why as its free and you still have to have an account, please just edit this link out)
Well, it installed and loaded perfectly.
I can also change my queue no issues, however, I cannot watch a movie. It gives an error about my device not being supported.
Maybe a hack job can fix?
If I understand right, we have to wait til sammy or verizon provides a DRM update to make the phone compatible. I don't believe you bypass it, though i am not a dev so I might be wrong.

I did as well and while it no longer gave me the "this device is unsuopported..." error, it FCed just after the login screen. Bummer.

Same on Fascinate. It would not work with the Nexus S setting at all. The HTC Setting gave me the same thing as Sophos1.
So....I installed the old leaked apk and was able to get past the login screen. It gave me the "device not supported' error only after I tried to load a show, but it never FCed. I am linking the file in case others have better luck than I.

[Q] Possible to sideload apps?

As expected, the B&N app store is really lacking. Is it possible to sideload apps?
Do we have to wait until root and custom firmwares are out before this is available?
I inserted my card into it - it can't recognize APK files, so maybe not yet.
Perhaps we just need to get a decent browser on it and associate .apk with package installer. Don't know.

I have no doubt this thing will be one of the most tweaked and hacked devices ever. Price is low, specs are high, it's just asking for it.

GTA III

It is supposed to be released today on all mobile devices at $4.99 US. The photon is one of the supported devices. When it shows up for purchase I will be getting it
http://www.rockstargames.com/newswi...year-anniversary-edition-coming-to-mobil.html
Just got it, I;m downloading right now
Well? how is it?
Hmmm, says its incompatible with all my devices...
Its running. Fine on my mopho and my 3d. .....

Running great on my MoPho and I/O gtab. You can go to the market on you computer and send it to your MoPho , that's what worked for me
photon with cm7
The game started up and downloaded the extra files but now it wont display anything then force closes. I'm running cm7 with the new 1.4 oc kernel. Any ideas?
So i uninstaled and reinstalled the game and works perfect now. I remember the first time downloading the extra files there was an error of some kind. No error on second try tho and works great.
I first had a problem where my internal storage was full but instead of saying so while trying to download the extra files, it just says no internet connection could be found. After clearing up that issue, the extra files downloaded but I am met with a black screen upon running the app. If I press the back button a message appears on the screen asking me press back once more to quit. I restarted my phone and it did not help. I cleared the app data and I'm currently downloading the files again.
Unrooted Stock Photon with all updates.
*Edit* Someone in the below thread said their issues were resolved by installing over wifi instead of 3G, which is what I have been trying. I will try installing over wifi tonight.

looks surprisingly well, controls are pretty good, although when driving the car the left and right steer are really sensitive but i didnt really mess around with the settings yet but looks 10 times better than it did on my ps2 when it came out. a classic
The game runs great for me, running rooted/unlocked CM7, but I'm having issues with the sound - not getting any at all. Anyone else have that issue?
anyone know what to use for wiimote controls?

I get the same message, it shows my photon twice and the other(older) one shows to be compatible, but doesn't work for install.
I can't find it on the market for mt phone, but inly I find ir and get the same errors about it not being compatible as well.

Did it show up in the market when you manually typed it into your photon after you pulled the APK?
I'm wondering something....

Nope, used a link to get to the app page in the market and it gives me the same incompatible message.
For whatever it's potentially worth for other problems, I solved my sound issue by simply uninstalling, re-downloading, and reinstalling the game. I assume some file containing the audio quietly failed to get properly downloaded.
if you are using jokers skinnyrev2test2, you wont be able to see it on the market however once you change rom's ( to lets say cm7 ) the market will see it just fine..

Bright house app. TV

Bright house just put out a app. for you to be able to watch your channels on your phone or tablet. My problem is when I install it , a pop up came up stating that I was rooted and that I could use this app. to be use on my phone.(I'm rooted). Any Dev out their could get a fix for this. Thanks guys all you do for us. By the way I have a Galaxy s II sprint.

I've tried some of the Hide Root apps, and so far nothing works. The brighthouse app continues to recognize the phone as being rooted. Sux

At least you got it to install, I get the message telling me that it's incompatible with my device. However, the TWC TV app (which it is likely rebranded from) installs fine. Just doesn't do much good when I have Brighthouse.
Brightouse is claiming "A rooted device does not allow us to set the permissions the LiveTv app needs to function properly".
Is this not such a bunch of crap. If their coders were worth a gain of salt they should have no problem changing or modding any permissions their app requires.
I'm guessing they are scared that rooted devices are able to record anything on the desktop. Sadly there are apps to help non-rooted devices to record the desktop too. So what would be the point of even searching for the xbin folder, which again I'm guessing that they are doing.. If this in fact what they are doing, could we add an app to rename that folder when the BH app is launched and rename it back when it closes?

Sounds like a bunch of bull****. A bit pissed that it aint working because of the stupid rooted crap. Someone has to find a way to modify the installation of this app but who will????
Thanks guys for the responds. Like everyone is saying it is a bunch of BULL****, but hopefully someone will come up for a solution to break this. By the way I started thinking why does it matter if our phones are rooted to B.H.. We pay them for service to our TV/Internet not our phones. It is not of their business what we do with our phones and if we made a decision to root, they should not block this app. to us. We pay the same amount that the person that did not root and they get to use this App.
I tried a little but the program won't get far enough along to help because usb debugging was enabled. I was using eclipse to monitor the log file while I launched the app.
There's a somewhat interesting (too much iFruit for me) discussion here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r27195196-iPhone-Android-tablet-users-get-Bright-House-TV-App-Joy- on the subject. Looks like the reason behind the ICS only is because of DRM. Is it possible, the same reasoning was applied to devices being rooted or not?
the TWC app got a fix for rooted users, any chance there will be a rooted-compatible apk for the brighthouse app?
Wahoo!!
Got it working...
File is attached below.
Uninstall original, if installed, then install this one.
Also make sure any reference to "test-keys" in build.prop are changed to "release-keys"

Awesome.. Much appreciated!

Any chance of removing the HDMI check? Works like a charm, btw, thank you!

I got that on my touchpad when I was running a cm9 alpha, but it went away when I switched to the 6/11/12 nightly. Worked fine on that.
