I found this XDA link today messing around online - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1772433</p><p>.
I installed the app from the link above, installed my favorite repository in XMBC and tested a movie. It streamed cleared and without lagging. Hope you guys enjoy!
To set up a repository:
First find and download a [repository].zip (Google search finds them easily)
Open XBMC app and scroll to the right.
Click system > settings > add-ons > install from zip > external storage.
Scroll down to the "Downloads" folder and find [Your repository].zip. Let that file install.
Now from the "add-ons" screen click "get add-ons"
Choose the repository you just installed > video add-ons > [one or more add ons from the repository you installed].
Let that install and now it's ready to watch movies. Press back until you get to the main menu. From the "Videos" tab choose add-ons, select an add on. Find a movie/show/video clip and enjoy!

I'm surprised no one has commented on this. Maybe because I didn't provide a thorough explanation of XBMC:
XBMC is a powerful media player capable of streaming movies, tv shows, internet video, you name it. Much like Cydia is for Apple devices, it's more or less just a media player. Unless you install repositories (apps that tell the player where online to look for videos) it doesn't do much. A quick online search for "XBMC add ons" or "XBMC repositories" will find a bunch of great download links for add ons. I will not link to any because of XDA's policies but you shouldn't have much problems finding them. Screen shot of my favorite:

I've had it do that a time or two. The app is a memory hog when it's running. Try killing it and other running apps (just swipe away if on ICS). It should open fine after that.

Hey can you help me with setting up a repository? The app looks cool, but i have no idea of how to use it.

I've tried this on several devices now and finding a common result. It doesn't seem to work on Gingerbread (tested on Bionic and D3) but it does work on ICS (multiple Razr's, Bionic, and HP Touchpad). If it doesn't open initially just swipe away recent items and try again. It always works for me.

All firefox android browsers have been bad so far. How is this one? I just use stock, and it's been great!
A tried the alpha version a while ago and it didnt do a hting. I know this is an upgrade but i dont want to bother til i see some feedback. SkyFire works well but it could be a bit faster. Opera is faster but posting on forums is more of a pain on that one.
Works fine for me been using it for about 4 days now, some of the addons are tempermental but just install them as you go.

I used this a while back. Every time I loaded a page, it crashed, and not just the app, but the entire phone. After my 10th battery pull, I uninstalled it.
Incidentally, I tried downloading it again a couple of weeks (and a couple of ROM updates) later, with the same results.

Didn't look like it was made for tablets when looking at the first page. Restored the previous version.

Same Market version is included with Motorola Xoom 4G latest update so it surely is made to work on tablets.
For some reason it installs as a separate market app on my GT10.1 so i have two Market icons now.
I think i'm going to root and push the apk and odex files from the Xoom update.
When I start the apk it says that my current version is 5.0.X. When comparing the version number to what I have installed it looks like it "updates" My Apps. After updating I also have two Android Markeds.
You guys also have this problem?
If you just install the apk then you will end up with two Markets.
I deleted the old Vending.apk from system/app folder, renamed the market 3.1.5 apk to Vending.apk and copied it to system/apk folder. Now it shows only one Market icon, but if i look in settings under all applications it still shows two versions installed. Don't know why it does this.
I mainly need/want the new Market because it has a feature to set password to make a purchase in Market. My 3 year old son plays with the tablet and i don't want to always look over his shoulder to check that he doesn't buy something.
Won't the apk update our existing market? Sounds too bit a hassle to manage 2 markets at the same time.
That's the problem. It doesn't. Installs a new Market.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I installed this new market and ended up with two markets in my apps list. I don't know if this 3.1.5 version is for tablets. Our version is 1.0.28. This new one seems like it's numbered for use on phones. My market on my phone is 3.0.xx
Works very smooth and fast on BroodComb V2. Replace existing vending.apk with this market apk using Root explorer, install and reboot.

Yes, you can.
This is a short guide that I have come up with for all those running DAGr8's The Hybrid RC6.2 ROM that wish to auto hide their tablet toggle bar when launching full screen applications.
What you will need:
1. Tasker
2. The Hybrid Rom with latest update
Getting Started:
Lets start by launching Tasker, and head to the Tasks tab at the top.
1. click the + symbol at the bottom to create a new Task.
2. I called this task TabletToggle, and then hit the green Check mark
3. Now click the + symbol again to add an action.
4. click on App and then Load App
5. Choose the ToggleBar application.
6. now click the Green Check mark to finish the task.
Now to create our FullScreen Profile.
1. head to the Profiles Tab at the top and hit the + symbol again to create a new Profile.
2. lets call this one FullScreen and hit the green check mark.
3. Next choose Application from the list that comes up
4. here you can select all the applications that you want to use in full screen, and hit the green check mark when you are finished.
5. A window of tasks will now appear; choose the TabletToggle task that we created earlier.
you will now see the following profile
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
6. Long click on the TabletToggle and choose Add Exit Task from the list.
7. now choose our TabletToggle again as the exit task.
Now your Full Screen Profile is all setup, and you can click the green check mark again the leave Tasker.
and here is a short video of how this will behave.
Are you using the Tasked app that is $6.49 on the market?
Yep, that's correct. It's such a powerful tool, its worry every penny; especially if you plan on doing anything with NFC as well.

I love the fact that you can edit your profile whenever, so you can just go in and add any new apps without rewriting it all.
Can someone just upload the profile?

For those who tired of "Can't open a new window until you close one.", this mod will give you the ability to open unlimited (actually it's 99) windows.
Not only that, I've reduced the zoom out tab animation duration, making it to be faster.
There is also an user agent switching option in the advanced settings, giving you 6 options of user agents.

Requirement:
Any ROMs that are based on Samsung ICS ROM
How to install:
1. Reboot to CWM
2. Flash
Known issue:
There won't be 99 tab indicators when you have 99 tabs because it does not fit the screen.
As shown in the pics above, in portrait mode, max tab indicators are 11. While in landscape mode, max tab indicators are 18.

If this is true this is a big deal, big thanks to the op, this also voids the ics+ browser in the market, oh well sucks to be that dev.

Before this thread grows out of control, and hikarugo, stops bothering to reply because there are to many newbies asking the same question, I would like help or advice on one thing.
Playing streams intended for iPhone and iPad (*.m3u8 files/links)
In gingerbread i could tap on a link in the browser (for example from www.tvcatchup.com) which was intended for Apple devices and it would just play, but now in ics
When playing streams intended for iPhone:-
A dialogue box pops up asking if i want to play using "android system" or "internet browser" of which the only one that works is android system but there is no tick box to make it default, before playing the video.
Even weirder
When playing streams intended for iPad:-
A dialogue box pops up asking if i want to play using "android system" or "internet browser" so you choose android system but when the video tries to play you get unsupported video type in the media player BUT if you request the desktop version of the ipad site and then request video and choose android system it works perfectly in iPad higher resolution.
TBH i have lost track of what I'm asking you.
In short can you get your browser to default to choosing android system when an m3u8 file is selected.
Thanks

Did anyone else manage to get user agent switching to work with this
Hi to everyone,
I would like show you this great application, Open Mic+, the "not-only-Moto X" application to enable the always-listening mode for any Android smartphone.

Google Now, Everwhere.
With Open Mic+ for Google Now, access all the commands from anywhere on your phone. Simply say "Okay Google" or wave your hand in front of the screen. Screen on, screen off Google Now will be ready to listen.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Google Now becomes more conversational as after a search just say Okay Google to start a new one. And even better get the answers to your questions while your hands are tied, or when you're on the couch, or in the car.
TOMORROW'S FEATURES TODAY
Everybody's talking about the new Open Mic features for the Moto X, but now any phone that is running Jelly Bean or higher can have the same experience.
SEAMLESS
Open Mic+ will run in the background and can be configured to start at boot so that it truly becomes part of the phone.
OFFLINE
Open Mic+ uses offline voice recognition which means less data usage and faster results.
100% FREE
We saved the best for last. Open Mic+ has no ads, no in-app purchases, and is free to download. So why are you still reading this? Try Open Mic+ for Google Now.
I installed it and it is working smoothly yet but the developer looks promosing... and the application too! You can check it out here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.RSen.OpenMic

Is there a way to theme this app to match the new always listening feature on the new Motorola X?
The tasker integration seems not working. It keeps going back to Google now instead of my Tasker task. Of course my Tasker allows external access. Please help as this is a huge thing for me.
this seems to have disappeared from Play?
Not on the play store. Would someone kindly post the apk?
You all are way better off following development on the Google+ page: https://plus.google.com/112424215551484520138/posts. This post isn't official.
It's been removed from the Play Store but you can still get it on the Amazon App Store. http://www.amazon.com/Open-Mic-for-Google-Now/dp/B00F106RGU/
