NBC Olympics Live Extra - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

I just wanted to let everyone in the US know that NBC has just updated their app so we can watch the Olympics on our Nexus 7's!!

If I've helped you at ALL, Please hit the thanks button.

Thanks.....looks fantastic on the N7!!!!

So much win!!

Awesome, good to hear. I had to sideload them the other day.
The interesting thing was what I used to install it in the first place (before using TB to backup and send) ----- an HP TouchPad. I mean really....a device which never officially had Android had support for the app, but the N7 didn't. LOL

Thanks, but I don't have a tv provider llol..

Nor do I. They have a free 4 hour trial. Not sure if you have to use it all in one sitting or lose it, but worth a shot. If you root, you can install stock browser and flash, then stream stuff from front row sports.

holy butt, the registration process with my 4th tier cable company was one of the hardest things I have ever done. What a pain in the....

It was awesome watching soccer on this thing yesterday!!
Man I just hope they keep up on the bandwidth when the heat is on during some big events because it looked AWESOME yesterday.

Woot. That was easy. The games are about 1 min behind but that's ok

blank screen on my N7, maybe because I have dpi set to 160

Here is a sample video sorry for the horrible quality. Looking into why my camera didn't auto focus on the screen.
Wish more people posted video of things. Such as those that say they were able to get splashtop thd to work on their Nexus 7

I'm stock and rooted as well. What could it be? Turned off forced landscape in both Nova and system settings everything to auto and still nothing...

Running JR6 ROM from Paul and just installed today. Everything works as it should on my end. I did install the tablet UI over the JR6 rom and I haven't touched the dpi.

App runs fine, but force closes alot. Happens on my galaxy nexus as well, so it may be a crappy app.

Works fine on my rooted AOKP Gnex at stock 320 DPI, but still just a blank screen on my rooted stock rom N7 @ stock 213 dpi. Tried uninstall reinstall and still just nothingness. Baffling.

They updated the App today .. update if you haven't already..

[Q] Android Netflix App for A7?

Does anyone know if the new Android Netfix app will ever work on the A7? I installed it on my EVO and it is sweet! But the screen is TINY!

I don't count on it ever working,but I put playon on mine and it works pretty much perfectly.You can install it on your computer then you are basically steaming but you have Netflix, Hulu CBS,tbs comedycentral,syfy and the list goes on.You can try it out for a couple of weeks for free and then if you want to keep it they are pretty cheap and have several ways to subscribe,from monthly,yearly and even a one time payment for a lifetime subsciption.Anyway I got tired of waiting and got it on sell and haven't looked back.It is more than you can imagine and you can use it on PS3.Xbox,Wii,and several blueray players.Pretty much anything that is DLNP capable .
Anyway didn't mean to ramble but hope this helps.
There is a netflix app available without the checks and already signed. Most have said they can get it running in a gingerbread rom. I haven't been able to get it working on the A7's rom however.

I know that they won't allow it to run on devices that are rooted, but I think if you search the forums you'll find a modded apk that should run.

I had installed the cracked version on my Evo4G and Evo3D, and it installed on the A7 but would never work.
I always ignored the "there is a newer version available" message until I read your post. Works like a charm now... Resolution seems like it sucks a little, but that may have just been the movie I tested with.
Just down loaded from Market. Install and logged in. It works great!!!

I updated to this version and it works well. I've noticed that the resolution starts out bad but rapidly improves. I am really happy with this tablet now. It pretty much does most things I want it to do. Only thing left for me to conquer is moving apps 2 external SD.
Thanks to everyone that has helped develop the mode!
Just wanted to make sure everyone is aware that you can adjust the quality of your stream through netflix. Just head to your account page on netflix.com and towards the bottom is a link to adjust the quality.
I've be seaching for the Elocitymod 1.42a, but haven't been able to find it. Can anyone tell me where I can get it or send a link? Thanks

On my completly factory A7+ I got netflix working only through an account on amazon
Still can't find way for un modified A7+ to get HBO GO
more to point. I cant get netflix audio (or any audio) through hdmi on my ~5 yr old Insignia HD TV, is it possible adjusting stream quality will solve the no audio? I tried it on a new 55" Toshiba and audio/video work perfect (and wow, a 3' tall angry bird is cool)
This has been answerd in old threads as, "some tv's audio works, some don't"
Any new fixes?
Anyway to put screen to sleep while still streaming through hdmi?

Iconia A100 sucks at app compatibility

Downloaded an upgrade to Skype today, and included was a bunch of new devices, that got videocalling with the upgrade. Among others was the Iconia A500, but of course no A100. ARGHHH!!!
After a couple of weeks of owning the A100, I'm more than happy at the size and speed of this little tablet, but it's getting to be really tiresome, that most of the cool new games and apps I find in the Market aren't compatible with the A100
Even some TABLET APPS aren't compatible.
And this is just the apps openly state they aren't compatible. With some of them, you won't find out until you either open it, and a message tells you that your device isn't compatible, or it just plain crashes on you...
(To further the confusion, in some cases you can download a demo from Tegrazone, but when you try to buy the full game after happily playing the demo, Android Market tells you, that the game isn't compatible with your device.... WTF?!?!)
Who's fault is this exactly? Is it Google that messed up? The developers that are just plain lazy? Or is Acer somehow to blame?
(I noticed that most apps report my screen in the A100 as being 600*976 pixels. Is this somehow the problem for at least some of the uncompatible apps!?)
And more importantly, what can I as a user do? Shoot off some friendly emails to developers? Or can a root or somekind of hack help solve the problem?
Opinions, suggestions?

Errr, yes it is (on A500/A501)! If you took 10 seconds to search you'll find in the skype parameters the possibility to turn on video (it isn't by default) and it works, I've just spent an hour on skype video, you can choose which camera you want to use, everything works perfectly. Sorry for being off topic but I just wanted to clarify what the person above me said...

Those options do not exist in HC 3.2 on the A500.
In mine stock 3.2 non root exist. Is in settings at the skype application. But you need the last skype update. I just finished a video conference right now and it worked great. Try again.
Alright, on 3.2 Rooted, but the rom that has all the bloatware and everything pretty much intact Skype does not do video calls or show ANY of the video options in the settings.
I reverted back to a backup of 3.1, and the app DOES do video call, and show the video call settings.
I don't know what your doing Kekinash, but you've got a magical tablet.
That's weird, my A501 on 3.01 stock rom with root is compatible with skype video calls.

This is both an opinion as well as a suggestion...
Be patient
Unfortunately the 7" and 8.9" sizes are 'new territory' for HC apps. Devs worked to get apps compatible with/to 10" screens and the associated resolutions that run on that size primarily for their tablet-only applications. In the same way devs for phone (1.5-2.3) apps have been working to make their apps scale up for tablet use, I'm sure HC-only app devs are working quickly to make their apps scale to smaller tablet screen sizes and those new resolutions. Even if the resolutions are already supported, afaik there's an issue in 3.2 causing them to crash when paired with 7" screens either way.
So when I say be patient, I mean hold out a bit longer and I'm sure things will be up to spec. On one hand you'll have the quicker devs fixing their apps to work well with smaller screens/different tablet resolutions and worse case scenario, you know it's all coming together anyway for ICS and at that point, everything SHOULD work.
Edit:
And friendly emails to devs let me tell you, do tend to get the job done. Especially when the app is popular. I use Getglue and was frustrated that it wasn't after quite a long time, not changed to be compatible with 3.0.1. I wrote a friendly email to the dev. asking for a Getglue for Tablets because I really loved the app and I sit with my tablet beside me more so than my phone now at home, etc. etc. and I got a response from my team saying that the app was unfortunately no longer compatible, but to use the mobile site. This was in July. Then roughly a few weeks or so later, voila! Fix'd. So it never hurts to let them know what's up.
most apps work in my stock A100
So far I have had no problems with the apps I use and have downloaded or even pay for. Skype now does video calls perfectly, the only app that was crashing a lot was a spell checker tha I did uninstall and replaced with an other one that has no problems.
Just checked, and the video options DID turn on in Skype.
Along with a little warning that it might not be supported, blah blah...
So I got to use the front camera for the first time today
Dunno if it's just me but it seems not all the apps I could/can see on my A500 appear on my A100. Same gmail account. For a while I couldn't find Facebook on the market.
Yeah, there would be a lot of apps for the A500 that aren't compatible with the A100 I can imagine.
Best way to check, is to go in to the www version of the market, then you can see all apps, no matter if theyre compatible or not. If you have several devices, the www market tells you which one of your devices an app is compatible with. I wish there was a similar feature in the market app.
BUT! On the bright side, I DID get around to rooting my A100... You think that might make a difference in regards to apps? Is there some kind of workaround available now that its rooted?
I just activated cam on my A100 and it is working fine.
?? Does Skype update automatically???

Slingplayer phone will not work on my Galaxy Nexus (fixed)

I have been a Slingplayer user for over six years. Yes I know how to set up my router. I can sling to any computer, to my iphone, to my ipad2, but when I try it on my Galaxy Nexus it will go to the screen where you choose your slingbox or the "directory" then just stays on that screen. I can click my box but to no avail.
I am 100% sure its an issue with either the android app, my Gnex, or another app that may be conflicting with it.
I am on CM9Kang 4.0.3 with the 4.0.3 radios and boot loader, I am using fracos kernel 12, and nova launcher. has anyone else had any issues.
I use the Sling Player and it has been working fine for me. I'm running the Codename Android rom.

Me, too. No problems with Slingplayer on the rooted stock ROM.

Oh thanks for the advice.
Please help
Guys,
I am experiencing the same thing as Chakra. My Slingbox works great on my iPad but when I connect to my Galaxy Nexus it fails to load past the Directory Screen.
I spoke to supervisors at Slingbox and they have no clue what to do and told me to reach out to Google who has no clue what to do. This is the only forum on the web who has someone that has gotten past this. Please help me out.

Yea. I modded my screen density once to 192. It was amazing with MHL. Until i realized that i couldn't access settings and that the market wouldn't allow me to download any apps and my current ones were also showing unsupported. no biggie, just changed the density back to stock and rebooted. what's that? Apps and market still showing unsupported? Cleared marked. Still doing it. Reentered google account. Still doing it.
Restored a nandroid and wont change my screen density again until something that actually works comes out. Too bad because 320 looks like ass when blown up on a 46 inch TV.

Not unless they've figured it out since the day before yesterday lolIf they come out with a working 192 and make the density changes without a reboot, I'm all in.
Better yet, auto switch to 192 when an MHL cable is inserted. Jelly bean anyone?

Hmm where is it lagging for you? I am in the middle of disc 2 and the only thing that has lagged on me is the part where you try to stop the train from running into Barret's little town (forgot what it's called).
I am on AOKP and Franco, just installed GlaDOS to try to get some more performance but it is pretty playable.
edit: Try this on FPSe and see if it works for you. I don't have mine setup so I can't try it out.
go in fpse.ini file and set DisStereo=1
Will need root explorer or something to get to the FPSe directory but it might help.

Ive already changed the DisStereo=1 and I thought i was all good. It was in the starter town after blowing the first reactor. But as soon as i left with the train it got unplayable.
Im on stock yakju, but I know people were playing it with their xperia minis without lag. So something else has to be the problem.
Doesnt the sound lag for you? What settings do you use?
edit: ive got scph1001.bin bios and a ntsc-u game.
I can't understand why i cant get rid of the lag when people with half the performance is saying their playing it without. Isnt it suppose to be able to play without a problem?

The sound is messed up and don't EVER use Tifa's limit breaks during boss fights (freezes right up), but otherwise I run at a pretty consistent 60fpt.

On my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, I've gotten it to minimal lag by enabling dual core mode (in my version it's done by default and the option is actually "force mono core" but I don't have it enabled) with the following things enabled under the "video" settings:
framelimiter
frameskip

ok. But your sound is still messed up? Cause I actually want the sound too work.

It's strange, if you download the OpenGL plugin, the sound is actually fixed (well, 85% of the time anyway), but then strange things start to happen randomly. I've had menus go missing---namely the battle menu during battles---and sprites go missing (sprites are video game programmer speak for pictures of things). Like the little white hand that points at "continue" or "new game" on the load screen disappears. So I just deal with the sound being messed up. I'd rather have smooth game play than fully functional sound.
Mind you, the music actually plays correctly, but it sounds like a stereo recording trying to play out of a mono speaker set up, like there's a speaker that's broken and not playing. Probably something that'll get fixed eventually.
In either case, DO NOT USE TIFA'S LIMIT BREAKS DURING BOSS BATTLES. I've had the game freeze on me half a dozen times during that first boss battle she's in during the 5th Mako Reactor and during the Sewer Boss after the "cloud dresses in drag" scene. During regular battles she seems to be okay, but boss battles freeze up bad enough to have to restart.
Hope I helped out I'm currently about to bust into the Shinra HQ for the first time (way early in the game lol). I love my ps3 controller set up on there too. It feels just like playing when i was a kid...but on mute...damn sound
Hm, that's weird that it is lagging. I played the whole of FFVII on my Nexus One using FPse without any lag whatsoever. Is it like this for all the PS1 games you are trying or only FFVII?

I've only tried ff7 so far cause that's the only game I'm interested in. But I'm gonna try ff8 and see if that runs well.

I got the psx4droid 3.0.7beta which is the last one to ever be released, but I don't know if it's okay to upload it here even if ZodTTD put it out as permanently free.
