I know quite a few people are running HC like myself on their Flyer. How do you access HC apps on the market? The market still recognises the Flyer as a GB tablet. Any way to work around this?
??? I can install most off the HC Apps from the market. And this till a made the update to HC.
And there are still other Apps with some other resctrictions (resolution) which we can't install, not in the Market and not directly from a file.
Yep. What elim said in landscape their should even be a section for staff picks for tablets

Hello.
I'm unable to install the mint.com app or a few other apps, because the Android market says my device is incompatible. Does anyone know why, and any workarounds?
Is it the lack of phone function?

You can't even find the mint.com app in the app-store app. Probably because it is "incompatible".
You have to go to the mint.com homepage and click on the Android link which takes you to the Android Market website for the app.

The workaround that I use is this... I install it on my (unrooted) N1, immediately use astro to make a backup, upload the backup to dropbox, install app on flyer from dropbox, then uninstall from phone.
It's a bit tedious and I don't get the luxury of updates for most apps that are installed in that fashion, but it works.

The Flyer is my only Android device at the moment, so no luck there...
Ahh. I can see the issue you have then.... You may have some luck with AppBrain + Fast Web Install. It kind of bypasses the market restrictions for those apps that aren't able to be installed traditionally. Free apps only, paid apps have to go through Google's market.
Both apps above are in the android market.
On edit: tried that and doesn't work for Mint's application.

I see the app on getjar.com. you can download it from there.
i cant use papago on my htc flyer and i cant other software to support it, any suggestion?
Is there a reason you won't use Google Map Navigation?

If you have WiFi only, just download the areas you wish to navigate in using the maps labs option for local storage.
Copilot, Navigon, and Sygic all have options to save the maps to local storage. This is assuming the maps are even available for your area of the world... Since you mentioned Papago, I'm guessing China.
You could also check to see if there is a map pack you can use in the built in navigation HTC includes as part of the car dock mode application.

I am using copilot, official license, when I try to download the maps it says that I do not have enough memory to install the maps!!!!!
Any idea? Thanks in advance

I have CoPilot and manually copied the maps to the storage card and then went thru the setup process, All was well (The internal storage card not the add in MicroSD *Size varies by device version 3g/WiFi/etc)

I have searched through the forums and am not coming up with much. I just followed globatron's guide on installing honeycomb on my flyer and everything appears to be working fine. However when i go into either the music or the gallery app, it is not showing any of the music or photos from my SD card. Ive also tried flashing flyhoney v1.0 and am still getting the same problem.
When i run Astro or ES File Explorer, i am able to find the music and play from there just fine, it just never shows up in the lists inside each app.
Has anyone else come across this issue? If so what was the fix for this?
Don't think its a HC issue. I can't see my music on SD card with GB either, or am I just stupid?

Not sure, everything was working fine. Rooted and ran stock for a bit with no issues. then after updating to honeycomb is where i ran into this issue.
Im currently going through the process of reverting back to complete unrooted stock to see if that clears it up, then i may try again. In the meantime it would be great if there is a good solution to this.
kinda remember there is a folder scan stuff shall be changed in the apk
but i forgot rest of the story
I remember that I had the problem when I first installed HC with Gloatrons guide, Power Amps folder scan would not return any music files... I un-installed Power Amp, re-installed and all was fine.... also weird is on my Desire S running lastest MIUI rom when I upload a foto to Facebook it disappears in the Pic folder under albums... but still is there as a thumbnail using Root Explorer... just a weird thing, I guess!

Try going into settings and unmounting your external then remount . let disk scan. If it is still not showing then use a file explorer app and navigate to a picture and select. Once

Tried that and am able to see all photos in file explorer (both ES and Astro), still nothing in the gallery app. Same thing happens with the music app. I thought it may be something with the stock apps, but the google music app doesnt see the music either.
Been letting the tablet sit at the "searching for music. please wait..." message for quite some time and nothing seems to happen. Does anyone know if maybe there is a music storage database somewhere that may just need to be cleared?
After reverting back to GB it works, so i thought i would try going to HC again today. followed the guides exactly. even did a clean wipe both before and after flashing. Still the same issue.
I know my ext sd has occasionally unmounted itself on honeycomb.

I have had a persistent problem with moving around from one hc Rom to another. Basically on globatrons stock s off hc my system apps can see and access my external sd. I have a backup saved. If I flash a custom Rom and wipe my data I can not get system apps to see my external sd. If I do not wipe data they will. I have had this behavior flashing every hc Rom for the flyer.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so how did you fix it?

mcord11758, that's on my to-do list to look at if nobody get's it sorted before I get to look at it.
Ok cool just wanted to make sure I am not crazy or missing something basic. For what my knowledge extends to I have tried every trick I got. Not a huge deal as suitable replacements are available, just an annoyance

Don't ask me why, just installed alternate music and gallery apps. Opened the alternative gallery, then the music player. The music player has an option to dl album art that is missing. Did that. Wouldn't you know, my stock gallery and music app now see my ext sd. Do not know if this helps with a potential fix..... Go figure

Tried a few different different apk's for sirius radio. They all installed but froze at the update screen. Installed from the sirius web site but said not compatible. Using the web based version is cumbersome and not convenient. Any other options to listen to sirius on the flyer?
The APk from my phone worked
What's the version number of the working apk?
The Sirius XM app does not work with Honeycomb on any device if that's what you mean. It's not unique to the Flyer. Sirius needs a swift kick in the development a_$$. They have not updated their app in over a year.
Not running honeycomb. Tried 3 different apk's and none seem to work on the default flyer.
Works for me on stock hc

I'm having the same problem as Big O. I'm rooted, on stock GB. Copied the apk from my phone. It installs and starts fine, but after the initial log in it doesn't get past the screen where it's updating the app on first use. It doesn't lock or become non-responsive since I can tap the back button and exit, it just doesn't finish updating.
If you have it, maybe a Titanium restore of the app with data would cause it to bypass the update?
Complete bull****. It works on my galaxy nexus (ice cream sandwich) and my all of my Gingerbread phones but nothing on my honey comb devices. BABABOOEY!

No dice on rooted, stock GB view.
WTF.. This is one of the big things I got this for. This sucks.
I have it working on mine. I have the apk and will post it if I'm allowed...
Disregard, I must have deleted it. Sorry
