Apps Compatible with 3.1 CWM Style - Acer Iconia A500

Alright guys with the new recovery that emerged and the 1.4 Prime port. Just wanted to make a post for people that have used it. To say state and list here.
1. Apps that used to work and now do not.
2. Apps that now work that didn't before. (i.e. netflix)
I have been at work all day and will be flashing when I get home would just like a centralized thread for people to post the apps that do and do not work. Then I will update them in the OP. So people know which ones work and maybe we can work together to get them fixed.

XDA app still FC

Hmmm seems to be working fine for me.

motorola social widgets

ok so i updated to GB and love the new blur. however i still went around theming it but after a few things i noticed my social widgets werent updating and wasnt letting me update them even tho i had my info in it correct. So i tried flashing the original .apks i had themed then it bootlooped so i sbf'd to the old froyo, so im stock right data/factory reset too. entered my twitter stuff and the old blur social widget still isnt working correctly, am i the only one having these problems?
edit: reflashed rootedgb.zip working fine now lets see what happens when i re-flash gbrooteddeodexed.zip
Please let me know your findings, I'm having the same problem after installing the deodexed gb. I did not test it on the nondeodxed rooted version but it worked great on the original gb leak.

idk half the time i flash they work half the time they dont im still not sure
Same thing here. I used sbf and reinstalled gbroot and gdeodex, then my market wouldn't sync but social networking worked. I had hoped third time would be the charm but now I'm back to square one. Anyone else out there have this issue or know a fix?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
ok one thing i noticed and kinda forgot, go to settings > battery & data manager > battery mode > performance mode, otherwise it wont continual sync, i think thats part of the problem, cuz when u first load it puts it in battery saver mode
I tried that and it hasn't worked. My problem is slightly different than yours though. It will push thru link posts or picture posts, but no status updates or tweets from anyone. Makes no sense at all!

ok also I think it might have to do with restoring with TB i think we need to do app only I think restoring data messes up stuff like before... my wireless seems to be broken

You may be on to something with TB. I didn't actually restore anything with it but just redownloading it in the first place may have caused issues.

Yeah I ran in to the same issue.

Light Flow

Anyone else use this app? I have had it for a while and all of a sudden it's not working. I can't figure out if it's because I just did a wipe and fresh install of everything or the recent update (that added contacts?).
Anyone else have it working/not working?
Many have it working. Check the developer's thread in the Nexus apps section...Andrew replies to all questions!

It works perfectly for me. Make sure you dollow the instructions when you open it for the first time.

Yeah, is was just another setting on the phone. I knew it was something like that, but I couldn't find exactly where. The app developer helped me when I emailed him.
Great service!!
Greatest app ever for me

[Q] 3.2 market problems?

Is it just me and my xoom with 3.2 ROM... but I can't browse the market at all.... I'm missing the little arrows after "TOP PAID" etc. This makes browsing the market impossible... I can search and do see the staff pics etc. But cannot browse large categories...anyone else, or do I have to start fiddling with titanium...
Are you rooted? I have the same issue.

yes, Tiamat 2.1 Hammerhead... market used to have those little buttons after "top free" etc...
I need to check my wife's xoom, it's not rooted.

Ok it's the same, missing apps. Can't look at all the sub folders. But if you search there still there.

So Google has made the market on tablet unusable in a way.... the new market on my Milestone (Droid) works OK.
It looks that way. I'm gonna dig a little and see what I can find. It may just be a fluke though.

Can not download free apps either.
The solution here and other boards does not work, remove Google Account and clear cached does not work.
It's some kind of linking issue in market. They left out the ability to see the tabs. If you search for an app that will work on the tablet it shows up. I just can't seem to find out why. It is like this on rooted and non-rooted xooms. They maybe working on it or may not even be aware the 3.2 update has this issue.

Helped.... so the broblem truly lies on the market itself
no problems here
I have a stock, not-rooted Xoom on 3.2, and the market is working fine for me. My Market version # is 1.0.28, if that helps anyone.
Edit: by "working fine" I mean not having the problem the OP described--I can access all parts of the market. But all is not well in marketland--I often have issues downloading/installing free apps. The "waiting to install" message will stay on the page while the progress bar grinds for a while. Sometimes things download, sometimes they don't.
So is this a 3.2 issue only? I have the same issue on rooted 3.2 with apps not downloading. I have yet to try paid apps versus free apps. I have only been trying free apps. im going to try a paid app as soon as I get my hands on that f_cker again.... or just say eff it and go back to 3.1... So it also kinda sounds like android wasnt ready for the 3.2 market update. ****ty..
I can download and install free or paid apps, my problem is the lack of good browsing of apps on the market...

It switches as to which has the tab next to it. I sent a report to Google, everyone should too. It worked fine on 3.1.

Same here, the links don't work. This seems to be a problem with European Market. GT10.1 users are also reporting this, so it has nothing to do with Android 3.2 or Xoom. It seems Google has updated European Market, it now includes "Featured for Tablets" section.
So i'm still having this issue. Ive installed Amazon app market and can install any app just fine, paid or not. I'm even back at stock rooted 3.1 versus the custom 3.2 rooted. I started looking into a complete market replacement app that doesnt rely on the market to d/l apps with roughly the same amount of apps, but it doesnt look like there are any. I did however find this, and yes its a repost, but I saw no mention of it here and thought it might be useful to some folks. I can't stand the WP7 look the new market has but whatever if it works then sweet. I have yet to try it but once I get home from work today thats the first thing i'm doing. Here are the links for the the 'WP7' style market that all our android phones got updated to, which also works on tablets:
Here is the XDA thread link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166169 (this one has the apk link)
And the Xoom forums link with reviews:
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-help/8687-market-issues.html
Try it and post back if it works for any of you as i'll do the same.
ALSO just make sure you use Titanium backup to backup your current Market app before trying this replacment. Just in case.
EDIT:
So more results from research, since I only have my HD2 to work with here I have tried some tricks to revert back to an older version of the android market, it is the same fashion that I will do with my xoom. I have downgraded my market and 'disabled' (really just changed the permissions) the market updater apk to not have it update. I can confirm that it works so that way when I change the market on my xoom I can follow this same process to not have the market auto update and just enjoy xoom sweetness!!
Here is the info & link for reference:

Figured out a way to stop the market from auto updating itself after you uninstall the 'update' to v3. However, I take no responsability if this screws up your phone and more knowlegeable people can feel free to chime in...
1) locate /system/app/MarketUpdater.apk on your android.
2) change the Read, Write, and Execute settings to none (was rw-r--r-- for me)
That should do it. So far, I have not had the market update itself and am able to continue using v2. I used Absolute System [here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.canvs2321.absolute.system&feature=search_result] to undo it, although I am certain there are other pieces of software out there that can modify system files and allow you to look at the data. You DO need a rooted and NAND unlocked phone it says to run the software.
Hope this helps a few ppl.

Just a heads up. As of today My market works OK. Now the little arrows after each category have come back and browsing the market is much easier...

New Android market

Has anyone tried the new market to see if it works on the TF??
Download: http://www.multiupload.com/O7AIK6RLAL
http://androidapproved.com/item/android-market-updated-to-v3-4-4-download-here/
It would seem that it does. I just grabbed the update for Google Maps and before the update started, the EULA for the Market popped up. I didn't see any visible changes before I exited though.
EDIT: sorry, looks like the update I got was to 3.3.11
I tried it and it wont install. Im not rooted but I dont think that has anything to do with it.

Like how?

working on my rooted transformer no problems.
Works here too (rooted). In landscape mode it shows bars on each side.
Did you uncheck Unknown sources in Settings Applications?
im guessing its the phone version of the market judging by the black borders as opposed to the tablet version.

You don't need to install it, just move the apk to /system/app (the name should be vending.apk).
Edit: don't forget to set the correct permissions and clear market data in Settings > Applications > All
I got the "new market" a coule weeks ago as an automatic update? and I have to say its SHIIIIT :S
Why did they change the tablet versio? the market it came with was perfect?
I agree, the previous version was much better. Now it's loading for ages and is really more for phones than tablets.
I am now in v3.3.11, and the market is really faster !
I drop down from 10s to 1s to show any page in this new version !
Much better ! It was really annoying !
guys i installed the new market but i dont like it.how i can revert it back to the previous version?i have revolver 3.9.5 rom!!thx.
Auto updated for me today. Seems to be working well so far

Google had quite some issus with the performance on market .. i've experienced many outdated infos on my app-statistics.
At the moment it seems to be fixed .. but they have some translation issues right in the developer-pages .. whatever - nothing neckbreaking ;-)

They even removed the charts for a while because they were showing huge (really huge) drops in most applications (even the most popular ones). Charts are OK now, but installs in developer panel are still much off I think (they show different values than the charts and they doesn't seem to update - or maybe my apps are so unpopular, haha).
All this said I think it's not releated to the slow market application. It should be managed by different servers.
I've been using the 3.3.12 version because I wanted the music stuff that wasn't in .11 and I'm very happy with that version. I know I found it here on XDA by using the search function.

App require Flash Player and S4 not compatible?

Is there any way to use apps like Justin.tv in Galaxy s4?
Won't let me play the tv channel cuz the flash player doesn't work for S4 devices
Plz help!!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
You must install flash player then use a browser with it enabled. Dolphin is okay but fire fox is more stable when it comes to flash.
You can find the adobe flash player apk in themes and apps

Boat Browser also supports flash
I have yet to find a browser besides Boat that works. And many sites require flash 11.5 or higher. Its just a bust. Not sure what's up with the mobile world these days.

Justin.tv doesn't have the android app out yet- at least according to their site.
BUT, justin.tv does in fact work from firefox vers 24 (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox) with flash 11.1.115.81 (http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/android/11.1.115.81/install_flash_player_ics.apk).
I have mine set up that I click to activate the plug in...I press it, wait a few seconds then the video loads. You need to kill firefox if it's running in the background when you install flash. After you restart firefox, you should be golden.

Well, in the nicest way possible- I'm not gonna d/l the one you posted and install it...(and I won't ask anything about the version or if it's legitimate or not). But I can say I'll install the one from the market I found by looking up the app by the filename of what you posted in the app store there's a free version for it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.bantamstudio.streamiefree&hl=en and it does seem to have some playback issues.
By further looking at some of the user comments of that app, I would think that it's a general issue occurring with it and you may want to either spring for the paid version (for real) or contact the developer of the app. It would seem to be that they know best what's occurring with it and can make the adjustments for things to work as expected. Also, by the comments on the reviews, it sounds like the developer broke something when they did their last update.
EDIT: Pretty much says it all in the description of the app in the play store, buddy:
"FLASH IS REQUIRED. Streamie will help you install flash if you don't have it already.
Please rate Streamie 4 or 5 stars if you feel we deserve it. If not, please contact us and tell us how we can do better.
If you have any bugs please contact us directly so that we can quickly support you.
Currently only Justin.tv and Twitch.tv streams are available. We are working hard to add other video services to Streamie.
KNOWN ISSUES:
* The flash player will stop playing if you touch the playing video. This is a problem with the player that Justin.tv provides. We are working on a solution to this.
* Sometimes Justin.tv or Twitch.tv will take a long time to respond to a request. Try refreshing.
* If you have an ad blocker on your phone, it can take a long time to load the stream. This is because the ad request needs to time out."

Yeah, that's what everyone else told them too...and the links were already provided....it's not necessarily flash that's the issue, as indicated my previous post and by the OP uploading the apk they're using... So, that's a pretty good indicator it has to do with the app they're using- that - coupled with the information on the app in the playstore reviews/comments and known issues in the app description - as also indicated in my previous post...oh and it's also outlined how the installer for flash you mention (that was mentioned earlier in this thread) ends up also working in firefox as indicated in my post prior to my last one as well...so I think that's a fairly good indicator that flash or installing flash isn't the crux of the problem...
call me silly, but if I could take the liberty to take a wild guess here, I think it's the app....okay maybe not such a wild guess, but it's the streaming app they're using- as indicated in my previous post...

Wonder if it could be because of the os version too - 4.2.2 on the S4. I think the S3 & note are still on 4.2.1.
I know it was like that with the Crackle app & honeycomb on some devices there was issue playing for a bit.
Anyhow, glad folks got something figured out and/or alternatives.

flash player re-installed (following the version mentioned by you guys) and tried 2 load one of the twitch channels , it took around 45secs to load the channel (Call of duty ) and the stream of that channel was clear with no lag.
thanks again everyone for helping me :victory:
