Skype Video calling on TF101 - Eee Pad Transformer General

Hi, I just downloaded the video-enabled version of Skype for Android from here : http://rootmydroid.evoboxes.net/pulser/VillainROM/SGS2/skype_2_0_0_45-signed.apk
You have to ininstall any current version of Skype to gt it to install but it works great on my HTC Sensation even though it's not one of the "approved" devices.
I installed it on my TF101 but it force closes as soon as you try to login.
Has anyone managed to get it working on the TF101 ?

no it wont work with the TF. Only seems to be working on Gingerbread devices ATM

Grooveshark works?

Hi,
is it possible to access this site (in free mode) and listen to streams while doing other stuff, can it play in the background?
http://grooveshark.com
TinyShark might do the job. I haven't tested it on my transformer tho.
Could you try it?
Can't it be just accessed like the website? Maybe with hacked flash..., like hulu?
Can anyone try?
Streaming music using it now. The app could be better but it works fine

What happens when you try to access it via browser?
As for the website it doesnt seem to load correctly but that could be down to Prime 1.4, the Overlocking or the fact I'm connecting via the work network.

Your flash... is it official or alternate ver?
Official 10.3
If you go to mobile.grooveshark.com it prompts you to download a grooveshark.apk which isnt on the market. Downloading and trying now.

Thanks Mate!
BTW: do u know if sites like bbc and BBC iPlayer, ITV, 4oD and TV Catchup work OK?
Hmmm the grooveshark app doesnt want to install and checking the site it looks like the official app want a subscription anyway so its tinyshark or nothing for me (as the website not loading might be my build... need someone else to confirm).
iPlayer and the other sites seem to work but haven't tried them all. Does grooveshark use java or HTML5 or something other than standard flash I wonder?

Also just FYI TinyShark works fine in the background (it runs in notifications bar)

I suppose someone with hacked flash and (if it still the case) browser setup as DESKTOP would need to try.
I also found these as app it self has been take off the market:

I have mine set to desktop and it does attempt to load the page but you just get a white box where the player should be, no region errors or whatlike.
I'm not sure why the official grooveshark app won't install, android has this annoying thing of when installing a package putting a nice green tick next to "install did not install" and nothing else.

Thanks again.
Grooveshark installed fine in my TF, running 1.4 prime.
It's also a lot better than Slacker; as slacker will not let you cache more than one device at a time....GS let's you do whatever you want....
The web version is a bit klunky...and the tablet version isn't optimized and so it doesn't look as good as it could but it works fine.
Thanks for the info.
I am in the middle of uploading stuff to Google Music so there will be alwyas something to listen to
GrooveShark will never work on the Android browser the way you are expecting. Use TinyShark or fork over the money for the official GrooveShark app.
Just a note, the Grooveshark application is not working for the Atrix. Support will credit you for time too.

Grooveshark is HTML5, not Flash.

You won't see support for hulu anytime soon. It's hulu who is blocking mobile devices, they want you to get the paid app. It's for copyright reason, they said.
But you can get the "hacked" version for hulu, look at the theme and app section.
P.S : you know you can edit your first post instead of writing a new one

Order and chaos and the A500

For some reason the android web based market say this game is not compatible on the a500. I have no problem believing this will run fine on it.
Anyone have a clue how to get passed the market being a pain and install this?

Amazon Kindle Fire "Silk" Browser

Hi All,
Amazon's "Silk" browser has been ported to other Android devices.
I tried it in my optimus one running CM 7.2.0 by adfad666 and it worked fine
Here is the link to the thread which contains the files and the installation instructions
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1418480
Check this out !
I try this browser is very beautiful but it also slow compare to others browsers.
Yeah, that is why the Kindle Fire was disappointing for most of the people. You could, however, have replace the Silk on Kindle Fire with something more functional.
I wasn't able to get it running on my Optimus V running IHO BACKside CM7.2.

Can't you just drag the Webcore for the browser? The other apps idk what they are, lol.

Tested and all good from CM 7.2.0 by adfad666 with 0.35 Kernel (New Baseland).
Very nice and good looking browser.
In the amazon video app do you need to have an amazon active account in order to whatch the videos?

I have tried to get Amazon Instant Video on SGT 2 10.1, but i havent got i it working. Have anyone tried to get this working, now it works one Nook tablet. Do anyone now how to get it working.
As of right now the apk does not work on ICS. If the kindle fire ever gets updated it will likely work for us

I have watched amazon video on my sgs2 I used xscope browser and changed it from Android to desktop, haven't tried it on the tab yet.

No problems on my gt-p5113 using Amazon prime to watch shows. I'm using Apex browser pro without any issues like stuttering or lagging but I'm not using an apk, just viewing on the Amazon site itself.
