techfrom10 got access to a test version of Market and downloaded some Google apps which apparently are test versions also.
Please see which apk works fine for you. As for me, only the camera is ok! LOL
What is working:
-Other users report Camera is OK (including me). FC when switching to video and viewing preview.
-Other users report Music is working fine for them.
-Clock widget is ok. Honeycomb style But only the widget. if you open it, FC!
*I checked the details of the apks: target version is 11, meaning those are for Honeycomb.
Maybe FCs are caused by missing or incompatible libraries.
Thanks to techfrom10!
im on dark v10 rc3 and i cant get clock, gallery, music to work. Camera and market work fine though, do i need to uninstall the old clock gallery and music to get it working?

Nope you do not need to. Somehow other apks work on other ROM versions of SGS. Mine which is running stock XXJVK only has camera working ok.
I hope others will test these and see which apks work for any ROM, may it be stock or custom, and maybe devs here could find out why it works or not.
Running Darkys 9.3 Music works fine, have not tested the others yet.
i got gingerbread.xxjvk, camera works until i change to video, everything else force closes.

Same as mine. As confirmed, these apps are for Honeycomb F/W only. It only goes to show that Google is about to release its proprietary apps for Honeycomb, with new Market interface
I'd be interested to know if there has been any updates to the Google News Weather widget app (genie.apk). I've got version 1.2.02 (RC2(PROD) according to the settings page in the widget, but i've had this since Eclair 2.1 and it was taken out of a Cyanogen ROM for the Nexus.
Now on 2.2.1 and the widget seems to still work, but sometime the offline caching doesn't work as well as it used to on 2.2.
Anyone got a new version of the genie.apk?

Apparently techfrom10 did not see or download it in the test Market. I think Google already abandoned that app as it is not even pre-installed on Nexus S.
Let us just hope that come Honeycomb release, a new better version of geniewidget will also come out. For now it is just MIA for that app.
none of them work on js8
i had music player and it worked fine on js8. and on xxjvk, the camera worked for me. no video, just photo.
thanks i will try...
Thanks for testing guys! I hope some devs could figure out how to fix or circumvent the FCs so we could use it on our phone
Though I am not that hopeful since the source code for those apps is not yet released. Besides any missing libraries, coming from Honeycomb, would be difficult to fix.
On stock JVK,
music, gallery, clock FC on open.
Camera FC when switching to video mode.

why are so many apps missing from the market with legend?!?
I can't find qik, ustream and many others!
Can I ask what ROM version you are using?
I can see them using 1.23.405.1.
If you meant QikTalk, I can see that. Ustream is there too.
the market is country dependent. This means if the app developer didn't turn on some checkboxes or there is some other issue with the app it won't show up on the market.
Next to that there are some strange things going on with apps on the legend. For example all barcode camera apps are not to find in the market but can be downloaded with an APK. A popular app "Layar" is nowhere to be found and doesn;t work with APK install. Layar and HTC claims is some camera issue. The desire has no issue while having the same camera....
There are someother examples of Apps not showing up. I think and hope that this is an issue because the Legend didn;t have a worldwide release like the Desire and App developers and publishers are not yet get catching up. Really hoping a rom update from HTC or XDA will fix many minor problems.
here are the info
ciao!
I am using the same rom, 1.23.405.1.
I can't find qik (for video streaming), bambuser (same purpose), nor even ustream (the application to stream your videos, non to view other people streaming).
I can't find barcode scanner as well. there's no clue of that application.
Some others are missing, I can't remember those apps, but I'll be more precise soon!
Hi,
the problem seems to be present in all phones using Android 2.1
You can take a look at the issue here:
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=7591
(Sorry, I can`t properly link, i`m new on the forums)
New flashplayer update available for download on market. Gonna see if there is any improvement for flash.
This is just too rich Adobe has now updated their app and we STILL don't have Froyo. So, if you have an ATT 3G Nexus you never even got a chance to play with the very first Adobe Flash app for Android, unless you rooted.
Nice Google , real nice....but hey, at least the press got a chance with it. You know, the ones who didn't even pay for their devices.
I am thinking more or less that the Froyo release is coming closer if Adobe is sending updates to Flash beta.
Okay seems if I goto FB full Site and play one of my HD videos itds much faster and the frame rate is still choppy but much better than before. If I toggle off the HQ button the video runs smooth. Also noticed if you double tap the active Flash window the full screen in portrait mode works now as opposed to it intermittantly working on certain websites. Other than that I dont see any sign of hardware acceleration as I tried a flash based game Happy Aquarium and it was just as slow as the previous version.
Well Adobe broke it for me. Now when I go to , for example, TBS.com, and select full episodes, when that page loads the audio is all choppy and breaks up if I try and move the page at all. I deleted the updated version and reinstalled the old version using Astro and it works fine again. I load the updated version, back to messed up audio.
I see this flash update.
I now have this flash update.
I wonder if this is what was holding back Froyo.
I'm using the prerooted Froyo rom. The download failed to install. Can someone pull/copy and post the apk. Thanks
NEVERMIND I FIXED IT.
It's a little smaller in size...
mine failed to install too. had to uninstall the last version then reinstall. overall this is a great update for usability. long-press actually brings up the fullscreen button now, it didn't before. not for me anyway. the doubletap to zoom also works consistently.
While chatting in IRC "cos" brings this to our/ my attention, that it seems like location based apps are now missing and deemed incompatible with the Adam.
Well this seems to be new in the last week, maybe even since the weekend.
I had several apps installed on my Adam from the market; dolphin browser HD and mini, as well as Locus Free, firefox, google maps, gps status and many others are now missing and grey'd out as incompatible with the Adam through the online android market.
Anyone else notice this?
-CC
They show for me but I'm running the CM7 ROM.
still there for me on Beast
I am on stock beta, used the market + root + adhoc hack.
Guessing a build.prop edit is at hand, anyone have any suggestions?
Might have to take a look at what's on other roms ie beast that have it working still.
-CC
EDIT: just to test I flashed vegan 04042011, as others have claimed to not having this issue with that rom. And same issue, shows up in market account, when looking for gps status or dolphin browser hd, they show grey'd out as incompatible..
I thought perhaps something to do with activating AT&T, I used market enabler to switch carrier to Tmobile, same results.
Found something else, my market updates itself to version 2.3.4 or 2.3.6, vegan came with 2.2.11.. Is there a way to stop it from auto-updating?
EDIT2: Flashed Beast 2.1.4 rom and it's market version 2.3.4 and the apps missing or incompatible with the previously listed roms do show..
I had the same issue on Utopia Beta 2 and VEGAn 04042011, but it showed most if not all the apps on Beast 2.1.4.
Rothnic mentioned it may have something to do with permissions, the issue with market not showing location based apps, Dougie187 suggested I copy Beast rom permissions, since it does work and put them on my stock adam.
So that's what I did and it works!
-CC
I've got the same issue, can't find maps, dolphin browser HD or any other gps based app on the market. I've got the stock rom with root+market, can you tell me please how to solve the problem??? I don't know where to find the permissions you're talking about nor how to put them on the adam.
Please I really need help.
Many Thanks
Utopia
Working fine on root+Utopia rom
hi CC, same issue with me. .please elaborate. the process to transfer permissions on my Adam running Eden's 2.4

EdenX should not have this issue, as it includes much more than just the standard root+market hack.
I would ask the dev of that rom directly in their thread.
-CC
Try this:
Settings — Applications — Manage Applications
Choose All
Choose Market
Force Stop
Back out, choose Google Service Framework
Force Stop
Clear Data
Back out to the homescreen, run the Market (it should fail – that’s what we want)
Reboot
Wait at least one minute after the system boots up, then retry the Market.

I'd like to add 'Beautiful Widgets' to the list of applications that don't work properly under Aurora.
Several people have commented on other threads in this regard.
The clock widget freezes after some time and cannot be restored except by rebooting the phone.
When the widget freezes it also seems to freeze other widgets.

I don't understand what could be causing the problem on my phone. I've tried installing the app from the market and restoring it from a local save using MyBackUp Pro and problems occur with both methods.
The last set of problems begain when I updated Aurora 1.11 to 1.13. After updating I only wiped the 2 caches, but did not do a full system wipe. perhaps this is contributing to the problem.
Interestingly, I have removed Beautiful Widgets in the interim and other widgets are now behaving okay.
Picture editing at the gallery crashes after first modification.
I don't think many uses this feature, but sometimes it's good to brighten pictures before sending mms.
This is a HUGE news in my opinion. Official support for Google Play/Google Apps coming to Nook HD and HD+ soon
Barnes & Noble's press release
http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20130502006907/en/Barnes-Noble-Announces-Google-Play™-NOOK®-HD
Engadget's Hands On video of the new support.
http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/03/...nd-nobles-nook-hd-and-hd-we-go-han/#continued
They say it will be rolling out Over-The-Air and provide access to other Google Apps such as GMail, Maps and Chrome (which is now apparently the new default browser)
I personally can't be more excited for this even though I've been running rooted OS and CM10 SD side by side ever since they became available.
Being able to access Google Play and having official support for many more apps will make HD/HD+ just that much more accessible and usable imo.
Now if only we could the the stock multitasking interface too....
UPDATE: New version number is Version 2.1.0, and you can manually download the update file from Barnes & Noble's website
Just select the Software Update link for the corresponding device and follow the instructions. (You just have to put the update file on the root of your Nook's directory)
I have no idea if it closes any of the rooting exploits, but my impression has been that since we got CWM working, we don't really have to worry about not being able to root now. Still please be cautious if you don't want to risk possibly losing the ability to root/downgrade/run custom ROMs. Just wait it out until the wise wizards of the forum figures out exactly what's going on.
That is fantastic news!! Will go and spread it now! Wow!! :good:
can't install downloaded apk apps...fail once again by B&N
I can confirm that keyboard and launchers downloaded from Play Store works as well as they did with previous "manual" installations.
There are still quite some apps that are just listed as "incompatible" from the Play Store, but having Maps and Chrome running without a fuss is great.
The paper-textured dock has been also been changed in favour of sleeker dark one, (with white icons in place of black ones now) and it seems like "white-on-white" problem is resolved too. (Might have to try out more apps though.)
I can confirm that Universal Root zip still works. Took me a while to straighten out the Play Store though. But it works too, even if you had flashed my gapps zip. May take me a while to test everything to be sure the zips still work.

Just for kicks I unrooted, erased and deregistered before updating to be sure to have absolutley stock setup. And it's working beautifully!
I have installed all my favourite apps with no problem at all.
I seems to me like the general UI is running a bit smoother than before.
And there is widget support in the stock launcher! (Maybe that was tehre before, but I ran ADW Ex right from the start, so I ddn't explore stock that much before.)
Edit: Making one nice discovery after another! Voice search works! And Zinio works as well. I thought maybe they would have found a way to block their competition in the magazine market, but no!

Do you think we will be able to sideload apps and install them through file explorer apps?
Ironically, I bit the bullet and installed the CM 10 Hybrid SD Rom less than 12 hours ago (after using stock root for some time).
Part of me is hoping this configuration has some advantages over the new BN stock but I'd love to hear from people about the advantages/disadvantages of using CM10 vs. the new BN stock so I can make a firm decision about which ROM I'll use daily.
Thanks in advance.

Not right away "out of the box" as it looks. I suspect rooting will be needed to "enable unknown sources", but I'd love to be wrong. Can't test right now though.

This is definitely an improvement: I ditched my other launcher now that I can put non-BN apps and widgets on the homescreen. But I still can't install some of my favorite apps, like Yelp. These and others are listed as incompatible.
What version of Android is the latest stock Nook HD+ running? Is it still on ICS?
That is very cool. I'm not near my Nook now but I hope with this new version it will now show apps loaded from play store in the app drawer as well as in the recent apps?

It may be due to missing hardware features. They have added network location provider to this new release so many apps that need location are now compatible but other missing hardware like GPS or camera may still rule out many apps. GPS location can be added via patch, many apps claim to need it.
Yeah, I noticed the new location features in the update and was hoping that it would make apps like Yelp compatible. You mentioned a patch for GPS?

Yes, it is included in leapinlar's location services rev 1 patch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613 it adds android.hardware.location.gps.xml to device hardware features (and with bluetooth gps and Bluetooth GPS app it even works inside apps).
Not sure if Yelp specifically needs GPS though.

I haven't tried new stock yet, but the things that kept me going back to CM10 even after I had stock rooted and Play installed were the ICS/Jellybean recent apps display and the incompatibility of some apps. If they let launchers override the native notification bar, on-screen buttons and recent apps, I'd probably run straight stock.
