Hey anyone else experience this/anyone know what I can do to fix it?
I'm running Jermaine's AOKP build 31 (v1.11). Its very fast and light. One thing I miss is Polaris Office. I know there are some bugs, but I've found it to be the fastest typing office program. That is, there isn't a lag between the time I hit the key and when it shows on my screen (if anyone knows of another office app that is also pretty much lag-free let me know. I've tried a couple including Kingsoft).
So I pulled the polaris apk out of Virtuous Prime ROM, along with two librarys: libpolarisoffice.so and libpolarisoffice_clipboard.so. I installed everything, placing the libs in my system/lib folder.
Problem is, when I load Polaris I get this ribbon across the screen that says its expecting a different model and the library isn't available for this model. It seems I can still view/edit docs but there's a thick, annoying gray ribbon covering most of the screen.
EDIT: Exact wording: Polaris Engine V3.51. Build Date Dec 2 2011. Target Name: ANDROID_FULLIAVA_TABLET_ASUS. Target Model: tf201. This is a model which the library does not support. Contact Infraware Inc.
Is there something else I need to do to get this to work?

Jermaine found a fix for the watermark in his later AOKP builds. Changing ro.product.device=tf201 to ro.product.device=TF201 in build.prop removes the watermark for some reason.

I did a search for apk's to try out on my newly rooted Nook and came across this post so I thought I share it here, I'm planning to try out a few of these and see if I can get any of them to work and thought I'd post the link here in case anyone else wants to give it a shot.

Also here is a link to the droid X multitouch keyboard apk. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709948
When I get a chance to try some of these out (hopefully later today), I report back with my findings.
Please let us know. It would be great to use some of these...

I tried gmail, it installs but it doesn't run. Guess I'll need to install a few other items along with it. Tried live wallpaper too, that doesn't install.
k-9 email works much better for emails.. i got it off of applanet.
Site with direct .apk downloads that work
There is a bunch of freeware .apk's that you can download directly from this site:
vvvvvv.freewarelovers.com/android (I can't post links yet two v's = one w)
Including gesture search from google which I installed and it works great on the NC.
Here is the link: vvvvvv.freewarelovers.com/android/app/gesture-search
Gesture Search 1.2.1 seem to be the latest available version. Below you can find file(s) assigned to this version:
Gesture_Search_1.2.1.apk (807 KB, ↓ 445)
As far as the files from the Galaxy S: I haven't had much luck but I only tried a few. My main concern is trying to find a working calendar app that will sync with my google calendars and a working gmail app. I got the calendar app installed and have the same icon I have on my phone but when I tap the icon nothing happens. For now I'm using K-9 email and it seems to get the job done but I'm still searching for a fix for the google apps.
hey jm20,
how does this gesture app works? is it using strokes or something like that?
gesture app
It basically indexes your files then you use your finger to write a letter on the screen corresponding to the file name you are looking for and the program starts to filter the results, it works rather well and is pretty quick. If you have a bunch of unorganized files on your nook it could really save you time. If you are very organized and know exactly which file is in which folder the app won't really be of any great use to you. Hope that helps.
I have been using dolphin HD 4.0 browser which also uses gestures for navigation and it works great. Seems to be more accurate than the stock browser, as far as screen tapping on links go (probably just my imagination though) and it has built in pinch to zoom.

jm20, thanks for explaining , it is quite clear now
Hi,
I have just received this tablet and it sucks.
But I paid much money for it and it took a very long time for it to arrive, so I just want to give it a try.
It runs android 2.3.4, but it has no android market. I managed to install the Market APK, but to my surprise, there was no way to add a google account, so I can use the market. Anybody knows how to accomplish this?
Second, I want to root this sucker. I tried SuperOneClick 2.3.3, but when I put the device in debug mode and connect it to the pc, it does not search for drivers, even though I have the android SDK installed. Anybody???]
Plus, if anybody has this device too, please share your experiences and maybe one day we have a developer willing to make a ROM for it.
I also have just received this tablet, I am a bit disappointed too (for the display quality actually), but I am trying to understand what I can make out of it.
I installed some versions of Google Market (and also the GoogleServices) but its seems unable to connect with my account. Will search some more if I can find some way to have it working, this post was just to let you know that there is also somebody else in your situation.
As always, any suggestion/step forward shared is more than welcome.
Bye

I have a ROM that is built for the GADMEI T863. It already has Market cooked in as well as some other tweaks.
I shared it on my google account.

Just unpack and copy the four items to the root of the sd card. Turn off the tablet. Hold volume up en power button to begin flashing.
Nice dude... you scared me a little when I realized that it has chinese as the default language but I managed to set english quite easily.
Thank you!!!
Thanks!!!
You save my device. My internal sd was corrupted and i've tried a lot of solutions without success. Flashing this rom repair it.
allright, more users with this particular device.
Question, is the wifi on your's slow? My wifi is terrible. I can only get about 1mb/s a second. My router is a Linksys E4200 and my internet is cable 120mb/s.
It is slow with this frimware, the old firmware and the new (official firmware), no matter what.
Please share your thoughts.
My top speed is 1284 kbps with a line with 30mb/s very slow

Hi everybody,
Happy to find some users of this tablet. I'm really satisfied by this stuff. The 3D effect is nice and the performances barely good. I've put on the back a door hinge to create a kickstand
I rooted my device thanks to two little things : PdaNet to get a generic driver, then DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582
@hyellow : Thank you very much ! Where did you get this rom ? I'm curious to know the modifications provides by this rom, and i would to follow his evolution

I found the ROM on facebook. It is a dual device facebook page, because it is also offering roms for the GADMEI T820.
http://www.facebook.com/GadmeiT820
there is also this chinese forum, from GADMEI themselves.
http://translate.google.nl/translate?hl=nl&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://bbs.gadmei.com/forum.php
Thanks.
This rom is great, finally my Google account and better performances in the system and 3D player. 'm Waiting for the next version
Does anyone see in the 3D mode strange rainbow-like color effects? Is it a low-quality panel or is it my device that has problems?
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
today all cheap panels 3d glasses-free are low quality with rainbow colors and duplicates.
Best view at 50cm distance with low tilt in the y axis, when you stop to see the rainbow effect is the optimal distance-tilt, best with a solid color foreground in the movie.
I got one 2 weeks ago from BRANDO.
I don't think it's expensive, the 200 $ get exact change to euros, so it's 160 euros with delivery included.
The hardware is Ok, not the best but quite reasonable. And the glasses free display really works with the included video and photo players. The screen is HD-ready resololution and the video works quite well with every format I have tried.
On the bad side: the screen gets scratched easyly just by using it. It comes with very little documentation in chinese and just a few apps installed and some more on the internal SD, included a chinesse market. The construction looks a bit cheap and the plastic back makes sounds when you catsh it.
Still haven't tried to root it, with the Android Market installed surely will get more from it. Does anyone know if there is a chance we could upgrade it to Honeycomb or Icecream?

yes, it has the 3d player. But make a backup of the 3d content (movies and pictures). because, that is not included.
Does anyone know if there is an SDK to activate 3D mode?
LG and HTC have them for their phones. I assumed this device only needed the image to be vertically interlaced, but it appears something needs to switch on for the parallax barrier to activate.
thanks

Thanks. Does it also fixed the internal SD problem and improved Wi-Fi performance? Do you know how to make a backup of the existing ROM before upgrade? Could you share any screenshot?
Trying to install this rom,
It boots to the sd install screen and gives an error
E.Bad Boot Loader Arguments "(null)"
E.unkown volume for path [/udisk/factory_update_param.aml]
E.Can't mount /udisk/factory_update_param.aml]
anyone know what this is?
have you put the extracted files on to the internal or external sd card?
It might not make any difference, but i put it on the external sd card.
Be sure to extract the rar file and copy it to the sd card.
Found this application which was once only on i-application(iphone) working fine on our touchpad and yes it also plays good on my LG optimus one too. It is like google currents but a little different in work around. Enjoy the port.
Here is the app
Press thanks if I helped.........
no offense but I'm pretty sure i've seen this posted somewhere else..u might wanna give credit to the original poster who yanked this from the sg III launch event..

yes you are right but most of the posts and topics look nice, neat and clean.
and I think something is still better than nothing....
what do you say?
compared to the browser....you'd have to argue the need for this, it was designed for the phone (GS3) and all that's been done is ported from there. If they developer made a bespoke tablet version then it'd be nice. but hey, thats my beef with ICS at the moment, many apps are stretched and look wrong
I like it alot.... Thanks for sharing,I hadn't seen the other thread so glad to have the app on my og evo and touchpad

Someone was working on a version where they adjusted the fonts to make them look better on a tablet but I never saw the actual package posted.

I was working on it.... Never got it right, as it appears I was only able to change the UI fonts. The article fonts themselves appear to be set remotely and just displayed locally. So it didn't even fix the biggest issue with the fonts which is in the articles themselves. It only fixed the UI and header fonts. I was going to post the APK anyway, but I found a force close error when trying to add new feeds, so that made things not so nice. Add to that the fact that for some reason, the APK wasn't installable unless I re-signed it, that makes it difficult to switch between versions without uninstalling/reinstalling, I decided not to post the modified APK.
If a developer type wants, I can send the modified APK directly. I'm not going to post it here because it's A) not stable and B) didn't achieve the intended purpose anyway, and C) I don't want to have to support something that's broken/unfinished.
Anyone that knows how to decompile/recompile an APK can do the same thing I did. All I did was reduce the font sizes in the XML layout and values files. As I said though, that didn't have any effect on the actual article content, which appeared to be defined remotely.
Perhaps this isn't the right forum, but none of the other Android sub-forums seemed the right place for this question.
Facebook for Android running on a tablet is a horrible experience. The same version running on my phone is quite a bit better. I think I've got 1.9.9 on both my Tab 8.9 ICS and my Amaze with ICS. On my phone, when I got to someones page, I get the new timeline with coverphoto and access to things like a link to their photo albums.
With 1.9.9 on my tab, the page is compressed to a thin column in the center of the screen, going to someones profile shows some old mobile form of their profile, and has no links to things like photos. At one time, the app used the full screen on my tab (no thin center column business) and had access to all the places within facebook. I know back in the 1.8.x releases, it worked fine. I think it was the 1.9.x that brought on the center column issue.
So, does anyone know the last decent version of facebook that worked on the tablet version of android? Please no responses like "use another client", or "go to the website".
Edit: Found a very minimal listing of facebook version numbers and dates released.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/facebook-for-android/com.facebook.katana
From that, and the time I bought my tablet, I think v1.9.3 was probably the last that worked ok on my tablet. I really wish the play store had better change logs, for example, when an app dev uploads a new version, there's a what's new field. I'd like to see way to access the history of changes to that field, perhaps even a way to access old versions of an app, for cases just like this.
Sounds rom related. I run thors JB on my A500 and dont have your issue with the most recent version of facebook. Ask on the forum for your tablet, preferably in the thread for your rom and see if anyone else has the issue.

I guess I remember seeing reviews on google play stating they had the same problem and assumed it was an issue with tablets. I'm running the stock factory ROM on my tab.
When I get some time tonight, I'm going to see if I can find a couple of the older versions of the apk to see if it was a client side or server side update that caused the issue. I assume the FB app just pulls up the profile page for someone, and it's pulling up an outdated mobile page, instead of the new timeline based page. After I try a few things, I'll report back, just in case someone else stumbles on this thread with the same issue.
hi my problem is that I was recently on ics 4.0.3 and on the infrared remote app I had a sky+ option but since I rooted and upgraded to release5a I have no option for sky+ or logik . Could some one please tell me if its just me or if they have removed the support for sky and logic.
i have also tried copying the 3 files irremote, api and service files to datapp/vendor0/app, datapp/vendor1/app, vedor/app and system/app and still no look.
ive also changed my region back to uk sgpt112gb/s
.
Any support is appreciated.
Thanks matt
Hi Matt,
I see you have some troubles with the infrared connection on the tablet. I know it's an old issue already, but personally I never got running the IR connection on my tablet S model sgpt113ch/s, even with the originally installed remote-application. In some blogs I read the hardware is ok but the software (some activation programming) is not integrated and must be built. Apparently some guy wrote the corresponding code around 2014, but the project was stopped. Maybe I'm missing some other files. What I see is, whatever app I use (e.g. television remote device) to run the IR connection, the led is not lighting up at all ! Maybe some file containing HEX-Code is also needed ? You are mentioning the Irremote and other two files... can be I also miss those ? Appreciate any help, buddy. Sorry for the long mail, but this stuff drives me crazy
Thanks, cheers
