Got my Flyer yesterday and I'm having issues finding Google voice in the market. I was interested to see if others are seeing this same thing. I have the US Wifi only Flyer.
Yep, not there. Gues the thought is that with lacking a 3G radio, it is not wanted/needed.
its easy to install it, back it up on your phone "android phone" then email it to your self then install it. works great on my flyer.
or try this one.

Yea side loaded the app but I wanted to see if others saw this too. It just seems strange.
Like I said in a post before this 2.3 is in limbo for a tablet OS, between froyo and honey-comb apps. cant see certain apps on both sides on the market to download.
I have been side loading some of the tablet apps from the zoom, icona and asus trans forums that you cant get on the market because the spread out in duel panes in landscape mode as some tablet apps should.

Like which ones? I was hoping to find the CNN or pulse apps that have been shown off on the xoom.
Blaw most apps detect that the flyer is not using honeycomb so they revert to froyo installed devices screen size, which does not use double pain landscape mode or "optimized for tablet screens" this sucks till honeycom comes out for the flyer.

Compatibility Mode?
I think it's actually limiting apps based on location. I think the Market thinks we're in Europe.

I had exactly the same problem. I found a free app called "MyAppSharer" and emailed the apk to myself, and BAMM I'm texting from my Flyer. Installed a few other apps as well! Give it a shot, worked for me!

and honestly, I just forgot to write them down... I was going to sideload them if I had too, but I thought about Appbrain ( which works ).
I cleared the market cache in settings and rebooted, still didn't work. Any ideas?
I was about to start exactly the same thread. I can't install most of the popular apps on my Flyer. No Raging Thunder, no NFS Shift, no Dolphin Browser... It seems nothing is compatible with my device. Android web market says "This item is not compatible with your device HTC Flyer P512".
Anyone experiencing the same? I'm living in Turkey, is this happening because of a regional restriction?
I did a full wipe of the device and still noticed things missing afterwards in the market.
Appbrain (which is a great little app ) and Appbrain.com seem to have allowed me to get -most- of what I can't find in the market by searching. Wierd eh?
This is honestly not what I was expecting since I had the Xoom and wanted a smaller form factor to use daily.

Thought that Market Enabler would only work with cell connected devices? And since ours is wifi only, it sees our source IP and blocks it?

I run into this problem as well on mine, so I just download on my DInc2, use Astro to backup and push it to a folder on my dropbox, and load from there....have done quite a few apps that way.
Convoluted, but it works

Most of the unavailable software are listed in HTC Likes app, but when I try to install, it says "The requested item could not be found".
Same goes for me. I can find the apps I'm looking for (mainly Google Voice) in appbrain, but when I try to install, the item cannot be found in the market, like when I search for them there... Really doesn't make any sense (pun intended). I can't get HTC likes to work for some reason, either... Different thread for that, though...

How did you guys get the version from the market to update the TW version? When i go out to the Market "Open" is the only option I get.
when you go into settings>applications what version do you have installed? I am running 3.61
Mine shows up as 3.59. Funny thing is that the Market version says 3.61 but "open" is the only option I get.

Try clearing the cache for your market and see if it will come up

I just emailed the dev.

Sweet, glad you got it working. Good idea on doing the web page market and forcing the upgrade. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
I have seen often programs not able to update properly when they are located /system/app. Since the it was part of the upgrade to TW, they have it located there.
The install from Market worked great for me as well.
Never knew you could do that.

TripleTapper, can you please explain more? Now do you "force install" from the market? It just tells me that my Nook Color is incompatible with the app, and the buttons are greyed out.
Thanks.
I just opened the Market using the browser on my PC. When I do that and search for Words for Friends I click on install. It then gives me an option to install onto my various Android devices by selecting it from a pull down. My Galaxy Tab comes up as Samsung GT-P7510.
Words has been working flawlessly now! : )

Thanks. Doesn't work on the Nook, unfortunately.
Just wanted to let every body know Widget locker works great on the Nook Tablet.
Since we can't make the Nook button go right to a aftermarket launcher, I started to play around with widget locker. You can get it from the amazon appstore for $2.99
I set it up so I Have a short cut to go launcher right on my lock screen.
Also if you go to advance setting and click always unlock to home. You will also get the popup where you choose which home to go to and you can select Use by default for this action.
Nice, beat me to it. I emailed the developer for WL last night to see if he could email me the APK to try on the NT. I've bought it on Android Marker (didn't want to have to buy it agian) but I haven't heard back. Looks like it works though, good stuff.
thanks a lot for the tip. works awesomely, i dont even care about root/cfw anymore. with this easy launcher the tablet does everything i ever wanted it to.

I agree (somewhat). While I still want to get CM installed on it in the near future, I'm pretty satisfied with the workarounds that were obtained in under 2 days. this more than holds me over for what I want to do with it.
I can't get that kind of service anywhere else!
If only we could install 3d party keyboards....this would be mint.

That app worked alright, I jammed up my gmail with it though, I had about 10 emails that got stuck on sending for like ahour while it super heated my phone. I wound up rebooting to stop it, it prolly was most likely some in my setup of my extremely modded phone though.
It did work great using backup to sd, then astro to share via dropbox!

i bought it a little bit ago for my tp and it went fine. i've not had any problems with the .10c apps downloading, tbh.
I have the default alpha3 build.prop and it installs fine.
All you have to do is purchase it from another android device and then go to the TP's market app and go to "my apps", then go download at the end of the list and find "Not Installed" purchased apps. HD Widgets should be there.

I dont remember seeing tablet widgets in their android market screenshots but if they exist and are tablet-only widgets you will have to wait for ICS. Currently our Touchpad run a phone version of android and so cant run anything that uses tablet APIs (Honeycomb and ICS can run these).
If you're running the latest ICS nightly (since 2012-02-02, I think) and use Evernote, you've probably noticed that it not longer displays the tablet UI.
For some reason, the Evernote app calculates width of the screen is 4.xxxx instead of the 7.xxxx required for displaying the tablet UI.
I've modified the APK to ignore the calculation so that the app displays the tablet UI.
I hope you like it.
com.evernote-2.apk
UPDATE: Some people have asked me to look at the Kindle app too.
Looking into it, but it is a little more complex ...
If you already have Evernote, you'll need to uninstall it before trying to install this one.
Tip:
Copy this to /system/app to ensure you'll never lose it ...
That way if you update the app thru the market and lose the tablet UI you can uninstall updates

Hey, cool! I read about this in your posts on the user thread. How did you do this? I don't know enough to diagnose it, but I would be interested in digging through a couple different apps in this manner.
Do you have access to the block of code you changed or are you dis-assembling this to make this work? This is a common problem across a few google apps as well (chrome, docs, etc) Just wondering if you had any insight into the root problem.
Yeah, that's why I want to know as well. I saw people asking you to take a look at the Kindle app over in the development thread, and I figure instead of buying us dinner you could just teach us how to fish, you know?
Yeah I disassembled the apk.
Essentially, I searched the decompiled files for the word "tablet" ... When I thought I found what I was looking for, I compared it against the logcat.

you can also download the apk from their own website: www.aldiko.com whithout the market.
FWIW the official Kindle app update that just showed up on my GN claims that it's fixed margins and spacing on tablets. I'm not near my Nook, but let us know if it works.

Yeah unfortunately it's not fixed on the Nook Color or the Touchpad.
I'll upload a picture of the Kindle app and describe the differences of tablet mode and phone mode on the Nook. I am very interested in having my NC as well as my TP displaying the Kindle app correctly for landscape mode. Without the split screen with two pages displayed in landscape mode, it's a long traverse to read a line across the entire length if the tablet. Lol
If you still have time to look into this, I would be very grateful. No worries either way.
Thanks for the Evernote fix!

It is fixed in CM9 on the nook color. I have tested it. The margins and line spacing is much improved. You still cannot adjust them, but it is very readable. Make sure you have the very latest version.

Hi leapinar,
I am on the latest version and the Kindle app is not in tablet mode at 160 dpi. I do see the changes you mentioned. However just to be clear, when you hold your Nook in landscape orientation does the screen split and have two side by side pages like an open book?
Edit: I disassembled the apk, but it is not clear at all to me what is triggering the tablet view/install. I tried a few edits and reassembled the apk and nadda.. At this point I am just blindly throwing darts..
Guys,
Sorry about disappearing ... I was out of town for work for a couple of days and busy on a new work project.
I've looked at the new version of the Kindle app, and yes the margins are better, but having the ability to adjust them like the phone would be ideal.
I'm looking at the code to see if I can just swap out the tablet reader view with the phone view, giving us the phone menu options.
A little slow going ...

Would just like to second this - the app is actually semi-unusable without it being switched because there's no way to access 'menu' (no hard button on the NC and no softbutton shows up in the app).
