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.

We all have almost the same result. Let's wait then for the HC to come out before we can use these goodies
I'm on Goatrip (Jvk) with damiangto's ultimate kernel beta 5
And i've tried all of them but only camera works
The clock widget works but after every reboot it gives me FCs :/

There's a update to ooVoo in the market place and video chat finally works now. I was able to video chat a friend from phone to pc and from phone to phone. There's only one problem. My ffc (front facing camera) is sideways. The rear camera works fine. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? BTW i'm running CM 7.1 RC1 with Trinity15 G2x CM7 trcu

I downloaded the new market that just came out. IDK if its version 3.0 or w/e but once i went to my apps it should an update for the oovoo app and I just updated it and now it video chat works. Like i said, my device is rooted with 2.3.4
Can someone upload the apk? I want to try it on my Droid Charge but its not in the market.
I currently use an old version of QiK that i was using on my old viewsonic gtablet (R.I.P viewsonic gtablet). however its not really reliable, for starters i can only answer calls in landscape for some odd reason it force closes in portrait mode. i tried the other major vid chatting apps (tango, skype, gvtk) their were all epic fails. is there an app that um not yet aware of that works better ?
Google Talk works flawlessly in portrait and landscape mode. No pixelation and almost no lag: I tried it with a friend in Frankfurt, for a while I held the Thrive in front of a mirror, and my friend noticed almost no lag.
Yeah, Google Talk works the best for me as well. Tango, while it's not perfect, works just fine for me too.
Skype just came out with an update so you can video chat now

Hey everybody.
So I flashed CM10.1 today. The Camera app had a few more features than the stock camera app, it used to have ISO settings and burst mode and it didn't continuously autofocus like the stock camera app did. It also had a feature called power shot. But then after I installed a few apps, i couldn't find any of those features on the camera. The apps I installed were chrome, whatsapp, facebook messenger and solid explorer. I had also removed a few cm apps like movie studio, so i wiped and reflashed the rom, but I still don't have those features. Any Idea what's wrong? My camera app is like the stock cam now. No cm features at all.
Did you flash GAPPs? If so, it replaces the CM camera with the stock Google one
Ohhhh! Okay, that makes sense. Thank you a lot!!
Isn't it possible to get the best of both worlds???
EDIT - Found the solution! thanks!
