The app won't show in the market so you'll have to sideload it but SPB shell 3d now has a tablet mode. It's basically landscape mode and it uses higher res graphics instead of stretching it out.
I've been using it all day.. works pretty nicely. The auto orientation is a bit slow and sometimes buggy so I've kept it on landscape only. Your mileage may vary.
How did you side load? I own and use my HTC Evo.

Pull via adb. Then copy to your SD card and install.

You can download from FAQ on their website. It looks like an older version though. I'm not sure where to get the "tab" version. If there is an APK, can someone post it. It requires a serial once started, so should be fine.

Lol, to you maybe.
I got the update on my phone. If you hit menu, go to home screen options, and experimental options, you can change from smartphone to tablet mode.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
Found it on FAQ. Looks great behind activate screen. Unfortumately i don't have access to my serial number and my email address used is no longer active. Im waiting on a response from spb for the serial number. Found the google receipt, but no serial number. I could almost buy it from handmark again just tl instantly get a serial number to lay with this.
I was really hoping their tablet version would come out soon. I think if you can combine the touchwiz functions with the SPB workflow, itll make the GT10.1 a home run.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
screenies please i would love to see what it looks like landscape...
Got my serial number. Man i love this thanks mr bomb for alerting me to this. I loved this app when i had a winmo 6 htc diamond and then on my htc evo 4g. I saw the demo for tablets a while ago and been drueling ever since.
I almost have my screens built and laid out. Id be happy to post pics but don't know how on non rooted stock rom. Maybe the TW ROM will be out next week and can use its built in function.
But i assure you folks this is the best home screen replacement. It has lots of wonderful and useful widgets included. You can also infinitely add or remove home panels.
Has anyone figured out if you can dock more than just the 1 icon in lower left as well as the app drawer? In the smartphone installaton/mode you can have 4 plus the 2D home to 3D home soft button. It would be awesome to have this on the tablet. I would easily uninstall ADW. Also has anyone tried setting as default home amd seeing if it sticks? My default home setting never sticks. I set it and then get pompted for it again.
Lastly, I had a bad experience when trying the VLT app on my Asus Transformer. I set as default and then it would not boot up. I had to return it. i definitely domt want a repeat. Lol
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
Set as default home and it sticks! Yes! I can reboot and no hang ups. Awesome! This made my tablet even more awesome than it was. Nlw if Touchwiz will come out so i can take screenshots.... Ill post em!
Thanks mr bomb. You made my day!

One word of caution... don't enable live wallpaper is you're running this. I tried a few times and every time I had to uninstall SPB to get it to load up again. Other than that it worked great. I just wish it was more full screen instead of the multiple panes.
I have it installed but needs serialnumber, i have purchased spb shell some time ago via android market... in this case did anyone got the sn from spb support?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
No you don't get serial number via Android Market. You have to buy from their site a 2nd time to get a S/N. I Google's for a discount code and got a 20% discount.

See I have something odd. I have done live and static wallpaper and it didn't screw it up. I kept getting watch dog alerts on Android Core (home.) But nothing bad. All of a sudden today, I got to work and put it on my media dock and every app popped up with force closure. Then I got a pop up that looked like the SPB font and said my installation could no longer be authenticated. SPB dropped to my Honeycomb Launcher. Now my wifi at work requires a browser to sign in, and i had not done it yet. SPB will not startup. I uninstalled/reinstalled, cleared cache, etc. It just won't start up.
I passed on to their support. But I appear to be stuck and unable to use it at all. it makes me very sad. It really made my weekend to setup and use SPB Shell. But it is all gone now. If I do get it working again, ill have to start over again.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
The way I got it installed is this...
Installed on my phone. Used root explorer to copy the apk from system/app to the root of my sd card. Then I uploaded it to my dropbox account and downloaded it on my tablet. Worked like a charm. I'm assuming this is because it was authenticated already with my SN when I installed it on my phone? Or maybe because my tablet is signed into my gmail account.
Awe.... gotcha. Where is it on the phone? I'm not rooted on my Evo 4G or Grab. So may not be able to do what you did?

It's in the system/app folder I believe. You need to be rooted to copy it out of there.
Can someone post screenshots for those of us who haven't installed yet?
Awe. I'm am going from an Evo 4G to Nexus S 4G this week. So I am probably not gonna risk rooting and bricking my phone. It would bring down the already low resell value on eBay. Lol
Maybe SPB will be kind enough to respond to my issues, even if they are not supporting it yet on tablets. It will hopefully be worth their time learning how to address it and advance their timeline for full release.
Maybe after I get my nexus and install it there, I can root and find it if SPB decides to not help. It will install but nothing happens now when i press home and select SPB. I get the SPB Mobile Shell 3D is starting with the circle going round and round .... but not even the serial box pops up. I do notice that it accumulates 1.07mb of data during this process. Ill clear the cache and same result each time. Its like something completely obliterated every app, but permanently for SPB when i sat the tab on the media dock today.

Well, that SUCKS! I'd be pissed, too, if I lost mine.
Is it too late to use this? https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb&feature=search_result
I think I remember something about sprint family tracker. You could check that out, but I think your gps has to have been on.
Depending on how smart the person that picked it up is, you may be able to install a tracking app from the Market from your computer and find it(as long as they haven't logged out of your account). You may be surprised. I would retrace my steps and see if anyone turned it in. Since it is a Saturday night I would assume that most likely you left it at a restaurant or bar. I would go back to each one of them(once they open) and see if someone turned it in. If not, you will have to report it stolen and get a new one through TEP if you have it. I always, ALWAYS carry TEP on my phones. It's a lot easier to come up with $100 deductible then to come up with $600 to buy one outright.
Ok. I'm sober now drinking my coffee.
I had a beer pong table set out on my lawn (I own a lot of land and am going to be combing it today) but I know its not there.

I've called and texted my phone a million times (I have to slow down or my battery will die). I do have the $100 dollar insurance but am bummed out about the new hboot.

The name of the app is Plan B. It's by the same company as Lookout.
Here's what it says on their website: "Lookout has an app called Plan B which can locate your phone after you've lost it. The phone needs to be powered on and have a network and data connection. Just go to the online Android Market (http://market.android.com), log into your Android Market account, and install the app to your missing phone. If you are able to install the app and it runs, you will begin to get emails to the Gmail account that you have registered with the Android market with location information."
I also read after you install it, you have to send a text that says "locate." I've even read where someone didn't start getting the emails til the next day. The phone had died, but then the person who had it recharged it!
Oh, yeah. After you install the app to your phone, install Lookout to your tablet, just in case. Not only can you do the locate thing, but Lookout also examines any app you download for malware.
Hope this helps. Keep us posted.

If you set up your account in HTC hub to use skins and you turned on the phone finder go to greener.com log on with the account you set up and you should be able to use that to find your phone.
The app they are talking about is called lookout you can google Android market on your computer to get it but I don't think it will install it but I could be wrong.
EDIT:looks like it will install it once that is done go to lookout.com and set up the account and hopefully that will work. there is also an app called where is my droid that might help here it the link to it https://market.android.com/details?id=com.alienmanfc6.wheresmyandroid&feature=search_result

You can log into the market from your computer and have it install plan b on your phone remotely . The phone of course has to be on and your gmail account still linked on the phone. Plan b is for when you have already lost your phone and didn't have a tracking app installed. I just installed the sprint tep app that does the same thing as lookout for for free(I'm guessing you need to have tep for it to work?) That won't help now(plan b is your best shot) but it will help in the future if you ever misplace your phone

This is a great phone. Nice to have Office without purchasing a third party app. OneNote syncing is great. Looking forward to testing SharePoint integration. I am very impressed with the battery life so far. Charged it up Thursday night and unplugged it before going to bed. It's noon on Saturday and I still have about 1/5 of a charge. The only thing lacking right now is app support. Hopefully the platform will pick up a bit and start getting dev attention. IMO, this really the sweet spot between Android and iOS.

There is an app called network dashboard that lets you pin the WiFi options to a live tile, but other than that luckily almost everytime you pull ot your phone and there isn't a known network in range it will give you a toast notification.

I'll try again tonight.
Hello everyone. I have gone as far as I can go by myself, and I am looking for a little help to see if together we can get this working.
I have a Lilliput 669GL-70NP/C/T 7" touch screen that I want to try and get working over USB host. So far, all my attempts have been fruitless, but I think that it is possible. The touchscreen utilizes an eGalax driver to work, and I see from their web site here:
http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/eGalaxTouchDriver/linuxDriver.htm
that they have created a linux driver for ARM devices. Based on what I have been able to determine, this means that I should be able to load the driver on android, but this is where I start getting in way over my head.
Does anyone know what I should be trying to get this to work? I also read that ICS has some form of touch input built in... should I be trying this on that? Right now I am running CM7. It seems to me like with a little work we could have external touchscreens for our Atrix!
Oh I forgot to mention, when I plug the touchscreen in, DMSG does register a USB HID input device as "eGalax Inc. USB TouchController"
CM7 also registers the handlers for the touchscreen as mouse1 and event10 when I run "cat /proc/bus/input/devices"
It seems like this is so close right out of the box! I'm trying my best to load the drivers now from terminal... we'll see how that goes.
Hope you get it sorted.

Thanks, My idea here is to dump the phone to a mounted 7" screen in my car dash. I want to basically have a touch screen head unit with all the power android offers, and the unlimited data that AT&T is still reluctantly supplying.
As far as the project goes... I just tried on Joker's CM9 built with the exact same results... I was hoping maybe the rumors I had heard about ICS support were true, but not out of the box i suppose. As far as the drivers, I can not get the calibration / driver utility to run so far... and that's as far as I'm going to be able to go tonight.

Are you sure that the USB isn't just for passing touchscreen input back to a device? I mean, I know there are such things as USB monitors, but I don't think this is one of them, is what I'm saying -- I'm pretty sure you need to use both HDMI and USB for this to work.
Even if you could load the driver. Which you can. You still need to write some libs and script to get android on the screen. Good luck

Perhaps I need to clarify... The Lilliput 669 has a proprietary HDMI cable that breaks into HDMI and USB. I am not trying to send video and input over USB, just input. The HDMI part works as is. I plan on using both HDMI and USB in the final solution.

Yea me too! I have tried in vain to buy this. $189 AU is a little less than $200, which I would be perfectly ok with for a completely working bluetooth solution. However, I can't buy it. MP3car.com is working with the designer to bring the product to market, but they are still 4-8 weeks out, and there are some concerns that it may not be released at all. The designer's web site lists the product as out of stock.
I have tried to find somewhere else that I could buy it, or at least get schematics to build one, but it has been in vain. By the way, this has been re-branded as "Mimics for Android".
I had been wanting to do the same thing. The other day i just came across something that should be coming out end of the month android quadcore mini development board. so you could say use touch monitor and android OS i see they have bluetooth also so maybe phone could connect bluetooth to the android system in car. there isnt much more info on the board but it looks promising for an incar project its tiny. its called odroid-x http://www.hardkernel.com/renewal_2011/products/prdt_info.php
there was some other $100 range android cube thing i saw recently too that might be good. OUYA is name of it maybe XDA will have a section one day for these devices. could make for some good in-car systems much cheaper than indash receivers and more features.
Good luck to ya, keep us posted. I would kill for a solution like this. I would love to be able to implement this, with a fiber optic audio out to a DSP like the Zapco DSP6 or Audison BitOne.1 or the Helix C/P-DSP that is coming to market.

This all sounds good, and I have seen the OUYA... it looks impressive. However this will remove the phone ability if I go this route. I could just check out the android x86 project for that... I believe they already have this screen working actually. I've been trying to follow how they made that work.
I really want to stick with my atrix as the brain so that I retain the 3g connection without another $50 a month or losing unlimited internet.

just to know... do you read the "Kernel 2.6.24 upward" right?
theres also what samcriip told, even porting the drivers, you need to write the libs and scripts to get android on the screen, idk how much you know about android but... this is kinda hard to be done...
Good luck, you'll need it.
Recurring problem, spend as much time deleting letters as I do typing them. Cleaned the screen, cleared caches for apps that have typing box, but still screwing up.
*This iis what itt looks liike when I deon't delete and makee comrrxedcrtions tto what the ykeyboard is doikng.*
Help?

you did not tell us what you're running and where you got it from. so, my best advice is to clear the cache/data/dalvic and reload.
.
if you're 'stock' ? oy... h/w issue ?

I'm running CM7 beta... and as it happens, the keyboard appears fine today. Only thing I did when I got back to the house this morning was re-cleaned the screen---this time with glass cleaner on a paper towel. Guess that's the answer

I can't for the life of me get a deposit to go through with the HTC one with my PNC banking app to deposit a check. Keeps saying the photo isn't clear enough, both sides. I hope it's not a 4mp thing.

I doubt it's the camera. I have no trouble getting mobile deposits to go through on my wife's iPhone 4.

I have PNC also and I've sent a few checks in, had no issues at all. Sorry, about your issue.

Hmph weird, I tried it two different days multiple times. I'll have to try it again with another check
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Tell you what, if you feel like sending me a check, I will be more then happy to "test" it out for you! :laugh: Just trying to help!!
But seriously, I have had issues in the past, it always seemed like there are some like super thin cheap checks that would give me issues if I did not make sure no light got through the back. It was on another phone, but I just wonder if thats any issue. 4 megapixals are more then detailed enough for something like a check. If you were going to blow it up it may be an issue, but at the size of a check I could not see it. Maybe if you make a copy of the check and try that, make it on decent thick stock if you can. Just a thought.

Lol yea, I have no idea why it wouldn't work, I just was deep down thinking and hoping not that the 4mp resolution was the issue. Worked flawlessly on the wife's note 2, which is fine with me in the end.

Works flawlessly with my Charles Schwab banking app.

I had that issue too. Wherever I tried to take a photo of the check it looked blurry on the preview but clear once I took it. Took a few tries but my bank app always takes a few tries

The difference for me when completing mobile deposits on the HTC One versus my iPhone 4i is the way the Wells Fargo app shows a preview versus how the image is actually captured. On the iPhone 4 I basically lined up the check within the four corners of the preview image and snapped the shot. 9 times out of 10 it would take it. With the HTC One if I followed the same procedure the result would be an image where the left and right parts of the check are a bit cut-off. For an check image to be acceptable it not only has to be legible but all four corners of the check must be part of the image. So I basically have to hold the One way above the check the check to ensure that the saved image contains all four corners. It looks weird as I'm framing the shot because the check looks tiny on the screen but that's worked for me every time. And I've deposited meny checks this way. Good luck, hope this helps.
