After watching that introduction video, it is with wavering resolve that I post this.
I'd love .jars to run on my Xoom with Honeycomb 3.2. I've spent a few hours today searching for if, and how this is possible, and the options seemed to be:
Convert sounce code to apk and run that
Run the .jar through a J2ME emulator
So I don't have the source code, writing off the first option. Everything related to the second option seems to link back to this old thread. Here, the version only goes up to android 2.2, and does not run on 3.2. In fact, I can't find anyone even asking about this in 2012.
Is this just not a common thing to want to do? Or is it that I'm using the wrong search terms.
Finally... does an app exist to do this on 3.2? Unlocked, rooted, whatever. It'd be great if this could work.

Has anyone found or manage to install the "USA TODAY for Tablet" on their NC? I'm trying to track down the APK but can't find it.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.usatoday.android.tablet.news
Does anyone think updating the build.prop to match the Xoom would allow it to be downloaded from the Market on to a NC?
I use the phone version frequently and would love the tablet version on my NC. I was surprised to not see much mentioned about it on XDA. If anyone has managed to install it can you verify that it works on Honeycomb v4? I'm afraid it's going to use a different sdk version (11, not 10 that the Preview image is).
It wouldn't install because we are using the wrong sdk version but if we could get it to install, I imagine it would work. I don't think it's using anything the preview sdk didn't have. Try asking someone in the xoom forums to post the apk. They'll be the only ones who have it.
Don't forget that Honeycomb has a new UI method which this might use. Pulse now will use this, but you won't see it on anything less than Honeycomb.
Activity Fragments
Honeycomb allows developers to break the Activities of their applications into subcomponents called Fragments, and then combine them in a variety of ways to create a richer, more interactive experience. For the landscape view, Pulse allows you to open the story right there in a new fragment. This allows readers to simultaneously browse and read news stories.

I've cross posted in Xoom forum. Maybe someone will post it for me.

Yeah Fragments look interesting. I don't expect the apps to work on anything below Honeycomb.
RE
Does anybody have the .apk for this? It doesnt show up in the market.
Link for USA Today APK
Here you go... (Attached)
Free version. No piracy involved.
Its one of my favorite news Apps, too. Wonder why they yanked it? When I discovered it was gone, I started keeping back-ups of my Free stuff online for this very reason.

The apk worked for me until a little while ago. Now, I get an error that I must download an updated version from the market. Searched in the market and couldnt find it
Ok, I have applied the market fix. Even went as far as editing the build line. While my market has expanded, I still can't bring up torque by Ian Hawkins. If I use the web service it shows but says it is not compatible with my device /gtablet/. I even copied the APk from my phone over to my tablet, while it does load it crashes within seconds. Can anyone help me?
I have searched the forum to no avail.
What rom are You using?
rom
I'm using the factory version
Hmm.. haven't ever seen it run on that. I have only seen it running on cm7 and vegan 5.1.
Have you looked into editing your build.prop file to expand market?
I edited the build prop with the mahimahi edit from the forum.
This should be the free apk

I definitely wanted to purchase the app to show support for the developer. But all things considered, I will check out that link. I just wish the andriod market would work properly on my device. The market just recognizes my gtablet as "phone" and constantly says the apps I look at aren't compatible. Seems like my money isn't good enough for Google.
Hey guys, so me and my best friend bought Nook Tablets yesterday after seeing all the cool things that the rooted Color could do. Weve been playing around with it, and with the help of some threads here have gotten Go Launcher and all those basic apps to work like the Amazon Store and file managers and such.
Ive also got a fun game called Zombieville USA working after many attempts. However, for some reason not every apk i try installing works, and i was wondering why that is. For example, i tried for a while to get GameBoid working so i could play GBA games. It would install, then ask me to locate a bios file, which i then downloaded and got it to recognize, but after i open the actual Rom, it would run for a second and then stop.
Other apks give parsing errors, others just dont work. My friend just successfully got Fruit Ninja to work, and thats pretty much been our achievement of the hour. Were new to android and the tablet scene for that matter, but very well acquainted with jailbroken iPod Touches.
tl;dr why cant i get every app to work? Thanks for taking the time to help
Apps that don't work
One of the reasons might be that the Nook Tablet has only a subset of the hardware the typical Android Smartphone has.
No GPS, no accelerometer, etc.
Even some of the hardware it does have, like blue tooth, has no software drivers in the stock Nook operating system.
If the application you are trying to run is dependent on one of those missing resources, it may well fail. Missing libraries might be downloadable.
Your best bet will be applications known to run on the Amazon Fire, which has a comparable feature set. Rest will be try it and see.
Alright that makes sense, thanks. Ill go look around that forum then and see what i can dig up
Ok, I purchased the Nyko Playpad assuming because of the packaging that it would simply sync and then i would key map and i would be playing Castlevania:COTM right now after years of not owning an actual GameBoy. I tried the suggested/"included free software" available from the play store, I got the controller synced in APP mode, which only works for initial boot and in the app its self. It does not work as a mouse or HID input. One of my emulators has iCade support; so I set the controller to iCade, synced and then went to key map. Failure. I've gotten as far as getting the controller to recognize 2-4 commands from the controller at a time; however, they inputs were, I: straight into the google seach app thinger II: the back key III: 5/* IV: 8. so no really anything useful for playing any sort of game or even browsing in mouse mode.
I began re-reading all of the instructions, reviews and watching Nyko's how-to stuff on YouTube. Over the course of 5 hard hours of me being neck deep in failure and coding I don't fuly understand, I found my problem. Sense lacks proper l2cap support, apparently...
I tried Bluez IME, and its respective hid enabling apk. That did not work for me either.
So, right now, I'm looking at unlocking and possibly rooting.. I guess, I'm not ready to admit defeat and return the controller right yet. Will Cyanogen/any other stable homebrew unlock this for me without msoftware, I goe losing camera, BT, etc... functions? Will a simple unlock and a flash of the BT fix the issue or is it too closely tied to the sense input system? I'm not too familiar with all the coding, but I have been an Ubuntu user for about a decade, I know it's like the baby step, but it's quick and has me at least a little familiar with the Android's linux based system.
Stats-
model number: HTC6435LVW
hardware version: 003
Android version: 4.1.1 w/ Sense 4+
software number: 2.06.605.1 710RD
Any other stats needed can be gladly provided.
Help, guidance and ibuprofen are all greatly appreciated.
Unfortunately, unless someone has tried that specific controller with the software that you want to run, you'll just never know for sure.
Thanks to your post though, I just tried a Zagg Flexx keyboard which has never worked with Sense (4.1, I haven't tried newer Senses) and didn't work with CM 10.1. It is working just fine for me on CM 10.2.
Well snap, you think if i set up CM 10.2 it would be kosher and i could reinstall my emulators and game roms, proceed to link via BT and actually be able to use the thing as an input device?
I was going to just jump the gun and do it, but I'm having issues even compiling adb and the like... I'm on Ubuntu 12.10, afaik. The htc guide offers windows instructions, but only files for linux/mac use. I got stuck on a ".bin" step... the first one actually..
Could I get a step-by-step and a complete list of what I actually need? I've been all over and through 80+ page threads and watched an hours worth of youtube guides, many of which are thanks to this forum, and thank you, but I'm lost...
Guru guidance is much appreciated.
As I said, no way to know for sure unless someone has actually tried it. Every device potentially acts differently.
It should be easy to install (not compile) adb for linux. You need to install the Android SDK from Google and make sure you select the right component to get adb. Searching for
install adb linux
should give you easy instructions.
Hi All,
I have googled this issue and searched the forums, forgive me if I haven't followed the rules (which I have read).
I have a premium app (not mine, 3rd parties), i am not looking to hack it, I have bought it.
I am trying to work out how it does some background calculations with not much luck, it uses ( I am led to believe the NDK was used, so can't be decompiled in the usual way, it has a .so library and the decompiled java doesn't show much.).
So my thought have been turned to the asm of it, and I was wondering if there was a way to attach a debugged to a running android process and be able to disassemble that running process so I can "watch" the calculation happen.
I have a rooted android device, and like I say own the game.
I believe in the iOS world with xcode and a JB device you'd would need to attach a debugger to a running process, then put a hardware watchpoint on the offset you know is the value you need then you continue, do something in the game to trigger reading that value.
I just can't find anything similar for android.
Any help would be appreciated.
If this isnt the right place to ask a question like this can anyone point towards the right place?
