Hi All,
I will be picking up a replacement for my Acer A500 tablet (I'm moving to a Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet).
I have a few games, etc. on there that I would like to keep the settings and move them to the new tablet. Can someone tell me where I'd find the folder that contains these settings? Is there an easy way to move them from a non-rooted tablet to another non-rooted tablet?
(and yes, I did search the forums, but nothing relevant came up - unless I was using an incorrect search string).
Thanks!
You can't get those files without Rooting so your only choice is to Root and use Titanium Backup.

So I managed to root my Nook Tablet today, and now I am onto my next huge problem... getting touch OSC to work on the Nook Tablet and syncing it with Ableton. Touch OSC is an audio program that is synced with Ableton to control midi live on stage. My problem is that when I open the network option which is under settings, the program 'touch OSC' crashes. I am running my Nook on Honeycomb , the Android software - so my Nook should basically function like an Android Tablet... and I have no idea why the program is crashing. I rooted it the proper way via this site.
Anyone have any idea what to do next?
I can not find a solution for this on the internet ANYWHERE. In fact, Hexler is completely focused on questions for the iPhone and iPad, and any other thread about touch osc is for an android device.. however I am using a Nook with android device and I can not find any other instructions with this situation!

Two points: 1) this is Gingerbread, not Honeycomb. If the app is designed for Honeycomb, that may explain why it does not work. 2) even rooted with gapps installed, there are still parts of the Google framework that are not available (for example, Google Contacts does not work). There will be some apps that will not work.

Did you ever find a solution? I'm doing this but on my Nook Color with CM9 ICS
Hey guys, I am about to follow the root instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354487
But before I do it I want to know what features could/will be lost in doing this. Obviously the auto-update (which makes complete sense). But in general I like the interface for now. It has its drawbacks, but I like the built-in mail client and the browser is fine for the most part. In the future I might also want to try ICS on it, but for now I am happy to use the built-in interface.
I really just want to root so that I can side load apps so that I don't have to pay B&N for apps that are otherwise free on the Android Market. That and I have never been a fan of auto-updates. But I want to keep the mail client and I especially want to keep the ability to read their entire digital catalog for free while I am in a B&N store.
Hell I would like to take that a step further and get it to work outside the store if possible. But I would settle for just keeping the original feature. I tried it earlier today and I love that feature.
So I would like to know if I would lose any of those features when I root this device. Does anyone know?
Thanks,
Patrick
When you Root you can still use the stock Nook "Home" launcher. You can install a second launcher and switch between the 2 on the fly so that you have "Nook Mode" and Tablet Mode".
2 warnings:
1) when I rooted and added Gapps, something broke the stock email client and I was not able to find a quick way to fix it.
2) I have not found a way to get Android Market or side loaded apps to show up int he stock Nook "library" so they can only be accessed via the "search" function or my using an Android Launcher with a normal app drawer.
I use the Nook Color App Manager to add sideloaded apps to the stock Nook home screen and/or library. It works great.
There is a detailed artile at liliputing....Do a Google search for: "How to add sideloaded apps to your NOOK Tablet home screen, app library" As a new member I can not post a direct link. Sorry.

Hey guys it looks like the read in store ability works just fine still. I got this device rooted last night. Now iwant to see if this ability can be retained somehow while upgrading to ICS. It would also rock to be able to access the in store readable items from any wiring connection.
Thanks for the help!

Hello!
I recently bought an Arnova 7c G2, which seems to be based on a Qualcomm MSM 7227. There is a forum thread in the cynogenmod forum, but little infomation is available until now.
One thing is for sure: the tablet is IMO rather well equipped in regard to the hardware for an adequate price, but the current firmware is rather crippled.
Since I cannot find list sorted by chipsets, nor can I find dedicated threads Archos/Arnova device support in the forum, I'd like to know where to turn.
I guess ICS Development would be a starting point, as Qualcomm recently announced to adapt ICS for their devices.
Any advice on how to start or take part in development would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Regards

A way around this is if you have another android phone or tablet, down load appmonster from market... backup the apps you want using appmonster.. then remove the sd card, or connect to a computer,,, there should be a folder called appmonster/ with a sub folder called backup drag this to your desktop.... on your computer... and then copy it back over to the Arnova... when you get to the app installer on arnove you will now be presented with a load of apps with just numbers on them if you navigate to the folder on yer pc, you will be able to work out what they are by the icon, or name of the folder...
not all apps work, i have gotten most of my phone apps to work...
alos applanet appps works to if oyu install applpanet market...
hope this will be of help to someone...
Hello all,
This might be a crazy question. I have the following:
Asus Transformer Prime
Galaxy Nexus
I was wondering if there is a sych program for android devices, where as on Wifi, or using digital dropbox, if I install something on my Prime, or cell phone, the OS could be mirrored to the other device cuing an automatic install from the Google Play Store. Essentially, I'm looking for an app that would mirror the installations on my Galaxy Nexus to my Transformer Prime, so each devices looks the same in the OS, and has the same programs. I'm looking for an app that will help me avoid the Data entry redendency for both themes, and apps.
Would I use a theme creator to match the look and feel for both devices? What could I use to mirror the apps and new files I create?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Hi Dave,
There's DataSync, which I use to sync application data between my Prime and my Galaxy Nexus.
I'm not sure if it only syncs application data or if it does also have the ability to share the .apk between devices, so you'll need to look into that. It does have the ability to sync files and folders though, so maybe you could sync the folder that contains all your theme files?
The good thing is, DataSync has a free version and a paid version with a few more features; you can try it out without worrying about the 15 minute refund window. There are other applications like Titanium MediaSync but I like the fact DataSync follows the Android 4.0 design guidelines and has specific UIs for both phone and tablet.
Unfortunately, you do need to be rooted in order to use DataSync but pretty much all syncing applications will require root in order for them to access other application's data.
Cheers,
Mark
I am sorry if this has been answered. I did search for it but didn't find exactly what I am looking for.
I am wondering if there is a way to push the phone browser (Galaxy S3) to an android tablet (transformer infinity / other) and view it in a large format (formated to the tablet screen)?
Also can the tablet control the browser?
This would be a way for one to bypass the tether requirements of At&t.
Thanks in advance and sorry again if this has been covered.
