I recently picked up one of those Polaroid 7 inch tablets at Kohls. (Polaroid ptab7xc)
All the reviews of this thing are great, but I can't do anything with it! I install the Amazon app store, and it works fine for a bit, but the next time I launch it, I get a black screen with "search" at the top, but the store itself never launches, and the search never responds. It only works once I uninstall then reinstall the app, and again, only for a bit.
I've also tried to install the Android/google store, I follow all the instructions on the page, and everything works fine, but before I get finished, the market stops working. Every time I try to launch the app, I get the same message, the Market has stopped working.
I copy the folder to the device and not an SD card, is that my problem?
No, i don't think that's your problem.
Did you tried to do a factory reset ?

Yep, more than once, but I always have the same darn problem. It's about to go back to the store, if I can't get it to work.

I took it back and got a new tablet, and it did the same darn thing. I install the files in the order it says to install them, I get to the sign in point, enter my info and password, and it stops.
Before using custom roms and rooting things, i recomMend you to reinstall the original firmware : http://southerntelecom.com/polaroidsupport/firmware_guide_ptab7XC.html

The firmware quoted won't work-it's made for a different model.
If you have already successfully flashed the tablet to the stock firmware, you can head over here where elektrik () has created a modified stock which has store, root &debloat.

If by 'hard reset' you mean back to factory default, you select that in the Personal section of the ICS system settings (called 'Backup & Reset')

Just chiming in to report that this Rezound port of HTC's simple-but-great flashlight app [mostly] works on the Inc4g:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1408341
The power button target is a bit off, though. You have to press a bit below and slightly to the right of the on-screen button.
I searched for other versions of this app, but this is the only one I could find so far. If someone else has a link to the original Incredible version or something else that works better, I'd like to see it. (too bad HTC doesn't include this anymore)

You can install and use Root Explorer. It won't give you access to /system though. But installing apk's is fine. You can install apk's from any file browser as long as Unknown Sources is checked in your options.

Hello all. I've been using the netflix app for quite some time now and haven't had a single problem... until now. The app loads, I can pick a title, see all of the episodes, and even select titles to play.
However, it stays on the loading screen, and the video won't play. I've tried clearing data, reinstalling the app and even different versions of the app.
I've even reinstalled my ROM, and wiped the caches. Still no video.
Every other app works perfectly, and netflix works fine on both of my other devices (Wii and Windows 8).
Is it just on my phone, or is this a bug in the android app?
Edit: I'm running Nottachtrix 1.3.1, with faux's kernel. I've tried the stock kernel as well.
Edit2: I tried Crackle and it doesn't work either. Perhaps I should do a full wipe?

I am having the same problem you describe with Netflix. Just says loading forever and does not play. I have been streaming Netflix on my rooted (bootloader is NOT unlocked) Gingerbread Atrix 4G successfully for several months. I was recently using version 2.0.1 without problem. I upgraded to the newest version on the Google Play store (2.2.1 I think) but still had the loading forever screen after selecting a video to play. I installed a very old Netflix version 1.7.0 and it appears to work. I might have learned something new from your post. I was under the impression if I unlocked the boot loader and installed another ROM the DRM Netflix keys would be gone FOREVER with no way to get them back. Also thought that with the DRM keys gone, I would not be able to use Netflix and possibly other streaming apps on my Atrix 4G. am I missing something????
The only thing that root kills is the ability to use the google movies app, which is expensive anyway. Everything else is supposed to work. I'll try the 1.7.0 version here in a bit, thanks for the tip!
Edit: It works!!! Thank you so much!

I know rooting does not break Netflix (mine has been rooted for months). I was talking about unlocking the bootloader in my previous post. If anyone is using the newest Netflix version and it works on their factory Gingerbread ROM Atrix 4G/MB860, please post to this thread...

Ok I was able to fix mine. I noticed mine died right after i uninstalled the antivirus and firewall from my phone.
So what I did was do a complete wipe of my phone.
I wiped the cache, and the data.
Reinstalled my rom of choice.
Reinstalled google play
Reinstalled netflix
now it works.
I am now running recovery on my preinstalled apps
Thanks for the info/ Further clarifications needed
Guess that confirms you CAN UNLOCK the bootloader and at least one of the steaming providers (Netflix) still works on the Atrix 4G. Can anyone verify which streaming providers do NOT work after unlocking the bootloader/installing none factory signed ROM images??? (if any) I had read several places on this and other forums that unlocking the bootloader would BREAK Netflix and possibly other things requiring the original hardward protected DRM keys. I had been holding out on unlocking the boot loader because of such nonsense and because I still want the Webtop 2.0 functionality to still work on my Lapdocks/HD Multimedia docks.
Have a Great Day

I think it would be prudent to have a specific subject related to Spotify for this. I feel that many apps use DPI as the indicator for tablet mode (ex. Gmail) so I'm not sure what Spotify is doing but I am also curious. I will check on my TF201 and report in.

Confirmed, just tried this before searching the forums (and ending up here haha),
I bricked my phone a little today editing build.prop. had to reflash. Lol.
I jst tried to change ro.product.model and ro.product.id, didnt work.
I'm using Paranoid Android on my Nexus4. I tried to us PA's Hybrid Settings to set the per app DPI for the Spotify app too 600p, which will force many apps to switch into the tablet layout. However, I did not have any luck getting Spotify to change into tablet mode. I also enabled the Force and Large toggles, which is necessary to force tablet mode for some apps, but didn't have any success with that either.
My best guess then is that Spotify determines what kind of device you have from the android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE, wich provides the device ID.
I have no clue about how these things work, but if the Spotify app is installed on a tablet, the read phone state permission, what happens with it?
LOL. goddaMNit, this thing is really annoying, and also, i have very nice playlists on Spotify so I don't mind the shuffeling But still, i'm kinda obsessing abot this thing.
Can somebody try performing a Titanium Backup of the app on their tablet and then installing it on their phone, data and all? I have a Nexus 7 but it's not rooted and I don't plan on rooting it any time soon.
