Hi
I really want to buy this Game for the transformer but not sure if it will work,
In the market it does say Motorola XOOM - Scaling issues,
So does that mean the transformer will also have the same issue,
Also if I buy the game for the transformer does that also mean I can install it onto the galaxy or would I have to buy it again...
Cheers
If IT Has problems with the Xoom then it Will probably Have problems with the Transformer. IF you buy anything from the market then You can play it On any Device as long as your logged into the Same Gmail Account and Its Bought From the Android Market. If you mean Gameloft then You can Download it as many Times as you want from an online account I believe but Idk If it only Gives you a single Version of it. I.E If you Buy a Xoom Version You Might only get Xoom Versions of the Apk. Im Not Shure on that.
I have the game and it runs fine with no scaling issues in game or in the menus (two company logos aren't scaled properly when the game first loads). There are some touch issues in the menus but the game itself controls fine and will work.
Cheers,
Going to buy it today....
but the game is really lame,save the money for other things
Just got the game and works great,
It might not be everyone's cup of tea but I like it..
Cheers for the help...
I noticed when i upgraded to honeycomb 3.1 the android market had the app tab the books tab and the movies tab and was the updated version but now when i upgraded to honeycomb 3.2 all of that is gone is there anyway to update the android market?>
Can anyone help?
I'm not sure that that's a problem that's very common. My Xoom at 3.2 still has everything that 3.1 had.
Just out of curiosity, Are you currently outside the country from where you bought your Xoom? Thing is, the Android Market exists in about 95 countries. Google Movies and Books, on the other hand are available in much fewer, so if you go to any of those countries, the tabs just don't show up.
Hope that helped, although I will need some more info to comprehensively solve your problem.
I am in Canada and it was bought at best buy in canada, another problem is i have a samsung galaxy tablet 7inch and half of the apps on the galaxy market are not showing in my motorola xoom market. It was all working fine on honeycomb 3.1 but i dont know whats wrong with it i emailed the android market support and they were no help at all.
I didn't encounter this issue with my Xoom. Although it may be different for me, as I'm running Tiamat 2.0.1 right now.
Regardless, I believe this market update may have to be downloaded elsewhere. If it doesn't update itself, maybe check online to see if you can find a place to download the update. I know that another website I check for Android news had a download link.
I'm not sure why the tabs don't appear on your Xoom, but I'm still gonna ask - Is your Xoom connected through a VPN which may be causing it to give the market details of another country.
As for the apps not showing up, I'd blame it on the VPN, if you have any, but more emphasis on the fact that your Galaxy Tab isn't honeycomb. It's more of a big phone than a tablet, so a number of phone apps would be showing up on that, which do not show up on a tablet. Viber and Tap-Tap Revenge would be a couple of examples that I could give you.
Hope that Helps.
Hi all,
I am pretty new to this Tablet stuff. Only had my A501 for a week or so now. My wife has the Galaxy 7" and i like the Ebook reader on the galaxy a lot more than the preloaded one on the Acer (Lumi).
I managed to get the Ebook.apk file from the Galaxy but it won't install on the Iconia (compatibility i guess).
Is there any way of getting this app to run on the Acer?

Sometimes there are lib files associated with an apk that you'll need as well.
Is it possible for you to post apk file for the galaxy tab ebook application. I lost it during upgrade and cannot find it. Thanks in advance.
just curious to see your reasoning...
Bought both and returned the nook tablet.
the NT was far too restrictive.. they lock you down into their little world.
At least with the fire I have some options
Cheaper, its amazon, oh and the boot loader isn't locked.
Instant video app.
I have other tablets with more storage and functionality, but they don't stream Amazon instant video without some stuttering.
Still haven't decided if this is enough for me to keep the tablet.
Because ....
... my wife ordered it before the Nook tablet was announced. But now that both are public, I'm happier with the (fairly open) Kindle than I would be with the (locked down) Nook.
I'm an Amazon Prime member, and the ecosystem Amazon provides is much better than Barnes and Noble.
The only tablet out there that plays Netflix,Amozon VOD and stream espn3 without issues. Also like the UI. It does what I need it for with minimum of screwing around and now that I have rooted and installed market and side loaded some apps, it's perfect for my needs.
This is from a guy who has bought or used most of the tablets that has come around recently including i pad. I bought one for wife initially and ended up getting one for myself.

I'm a amazon prime member, so easy choice for me! also I enjoy the form factor of the kindle better than the nook (what in the world is that little hole for?)
Price and I have always wanted a kindle

Mainly the build quality of the device it feels solid in hand as oppose to the flimsy feel of the nook tablet. I don't like the extra weight of having a case so the kindle fire is perfect and also the unlock bootloader.

The interface, the entire experiance. I like that amazon is truely offering a different experiance and bundled it in all in a nice package. I mean, no offence to other manufactures, but I feel like amazon really brought something to the table that is truely unique. I mean look at the vast options of honeycomb tablets, or gingerbread tablets, their all pretty much the same, they may have some skins on top, but underneath their all just the same old interface, don't get me wrong, I love android, but what amazon has done is organize everything that I do into a neat package. I can click on a section for the launcher and I am presented with specific content, I love that if I want to catch up on some shows, I can click the videos tab, or play a game click on my apps tab, and from there I can quickly access the app store, it all just makes sense to me.

I have about 300 dollars worth of Kindle books. Simple as that, really.
Before the Nook Tablet announcement I pre-ordered the Kindle:
-Price (I even bought the cover with a $20 credit)
-All my Kindle books available out of the box, without waiting for a root or hack
-Easier to buy from Amazon, free two-day shipping as a Prime
Best buy gave me a 50$ dollar gift card by accident.

pitnefor, in which way?
guys when i went to bestbuy, netflix was laggy. it seems to be that way on the reviews i've watched too. plus, they've achieved full root with the nook. the bootloader point still stands though...what about the gig of ram, and one piece screen?
i agree daggy. but it stuttered when i tried to play with it.
and to everybody who talks about cost, if that wasn't an issue would you still stay with your kindle?
plus, it has one button. what recovery will you use? one where you press that button a certain amount of seconds to scroll up, down, etc. ? thanks

They have a touchscreen recovery in the works apparently.
Also I would never trust any test that uses internet in bestbuy. I worked there for a year and it was the worst. They didnt even have a separate network for the display equipment, so if people kept going on sites, it would crash up the sales machines and you couldn't punch in/out.
Horrors.
We had to use a verizon mifi to get any real work done.

You commented about stuttering in 2 of your 3 consecutive posts.
I believe this thread is the "why you picked the Kindle over the Nook Tablet", not the "why I like to bash Kindle thread".
I will say that I have no issues playing video on my Kindle Fire. Netflix, Prime, or the conversions to MP4 I've loaded onto my device.

yes, i know what the thread says, i created it. yes, i did comment about it because i noticed it but thelgow is right (thanks thelgow). thanks for your input too soda.
but again, if the NT and KF cost the same, which would you all buy then, and why?
As the title says I just got a new tablet. However I didnt see my model listed in the XDA app, so I am wondering if this is the right forum for it? Model info listed below. Got it from a client as a gift. It's pretty sweet. Honeycomb 3.2 is nice on it, but I got used to ICS on my Nook Color and the ability to ckose apps by sliding them out of the app switcher thingy. How do I replicate that in Honeycomb?
General imoressions are that it us even faster than my Nook Tablet (yes I own both the NC and NT). I am debating in selling my kess than a month old NT and using this device as my primary tablet and the NC as a backup device / letting my kids use the NC.

Try the Galaxy Tab Plus forums for that model.
