[Q] XDA Premium App Wont Install on Iconia?

So i had the Premium App and enjoyed reading from my tablet.
Now in Marketplace under "My Apps" it shows as "not installed" and when i hit install it does a little loader and goes back to the "not installed screen"...
Anyone else having this happen on a Acer Iconia a500 ?

not quite the same issue, but the free version of the app constantly force closes on my a500. every time i open it back up, i have to login, only to be force closed on again a few minutes later. maybe they finally realized it doesnt work on honeycomb and removed the ability to install it on this version of android?
in your case, can you try restoring it from titanium backup? assuming you're using that of course.

OK....now it still shows in market as not being installed.... but it works.

I have the same problem with the free version. It force closes after I sign in.
Also for the Market, when I am looking through apps, the FREE or BUY button appears next to them even if I already have them installed.

Question ...why are you guys using an app instead of the browser?
Outside of the search function it works just as it does on a desktop

Weather ticker

Ever since I flashed froyo on my phone I have had problems with my weather ticker. It hasn't been updating/refreshing like it should. Also when I click the icon on my ticker it no longer opens weather bug anyone know why?

If your running ec07. Try the GPS fix.

Well, It wasn't working when I used EC03, and yesterday I switched to EC07. Still isn't working. I'm hesitant to try the GPS Fix because it's a shot in the dark if it would work and it's going to take a quite a bit of time for me to figure out ADB.
Any other suggestions? :/

Copy and paste GPS. Conf with root explorer in folder that the adb command says in post. Then reboot. Make sure to mount r/w in folder pasting to. (Button on top in root explr)

I don't have Root Explorer, and it's $3.99 in the market, is there any other explorer that I can use?

Ah thank you. I copied the gsp.config over, lets see if it works....
EDIT: Nope, a no go on the weather ticker. I can't even open it.

Are you on a stock ROM or one of the manymodded ROMs? the only reason it wouldn't open would be if someone deleted the app or if your ticker is forever "locked"which I have seen before....
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda premium

I'm using Nuckins ROM. I don't think the ticker is locked, because I can still open my Text messages via the ticker bar. Just the weather thingymabobber won't come up, and the only way I can refresh it is by manually going into the weather ticker settings and clicking Refresh. It doesn't even seem to refresh automatically every 3 hours, like it is set to do.
I'm not sure if Nuckin's ROM has deleted the app or not, but if it has how can I get it back? ALSO... Before this ROM I was using THIS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1203597 ROM by pastorbennett and the weather ticker OPENED but wasn't updating with it.

I know at one point on an older flash I was using TI and deleted some essential apps for the entire ticker section without knowing it. They're have very vague names. Reflashing would definitely fix the issue, if that's something you're willing to do.

Reflashing what? I've already experimented with 2 different ROMS. First time I had EC03/pastorbennetts ROM and this time I have EC07/Nuckin's ROM.... problems with both and the weather ticker. However, slightly different problems. With EC03 I could open the weatherbug app by clicking on the weather icon, but I couldn't refresh it not even manually. This time, with EC07 I can refresh it manually but that's about it. I can't open the Weatherbug app and I don't think it's refreshing on its own either. (Although it could be, I'm just having a hard time telling since I can't open the APP and see what time it updated.)
Plus, I've reflashed both of those more than once with the same issue.
EDIT: Unless you mean to reflash stock, then flash the ROM?
EDIT2: I think I've already reflashed stop after this anyway....
EDIT3: Well, I tried to manually go into my applications and open Weatherbug and it's giving a Force Close Error. >.< I uninstalled it, and reinstalled it, same issue.

Best advice I could give is to go into <2e> then open CwM (red seems to work nicely) wipe cache wipe data factory reset then reflash the EC07_clean! This ROM fixed most problems for me and its a simple quick flash. Then you can update to whatever ROM you've been wanting to use. The entire ticker-stuffs has worked flawlessly for me on the EC07 clean so I recommend that. It was a problem I was having too since rooting my i400.

Okay so now that my phone is unbricked, haha... I'm having my lovely WB ticker problem again. Except this time, the program opens when I click the ticker BUT I can't refresh it manually with the refresh icon. Any idea why or how it can be fixed? lol

Funny, I just started having the problem where the ticker icon doesn't open the app.

Think I deleted something... -.- I'll reflash later...

I thought I fixed it, but alas, I did not. >.< WB stop haunting meeeeee.

Anyone have any other suggestions? I assume thee is no way to have the ticker use another app either?

I can very easily, (well... Pretty easily, haha.... ) make the ticker use another app, haha...

[Help] Docs Stopped Working

My documents are not opening on the "Amazon Launcher" anymore.
Once i touch the file on the grid, it "flashes" (indicating the "click/touch") but nothing happens.
Also, my Documents on the "sdcard" folder are not showing up on the "Device" tab, is there any specific folder i have to put them ?
I installed two apps "Quick Office" and "Office Suite", i dont know if it makes any difference but, who knows.
What can be happening?
Info : Rooted 6.3 Kindle Fire - No Custom Rom
Thanks in advance.

Bumping Thread.
Sorry for doing this, but, i need to make the documents tab work

The location of the document folder is user configurable through setting option as part of office application. You may create a new folder to store your docs or you can use icloude services.

Im not sure if im too late, but i had a similar problem, and i read in a thread a ways back that to solve this, you need to go to system/app/kindleforotter.apk reinstall the app using root explorer or something similar. It solved my issue with this, i hipe it does yours.

[Q] Stock alarm clock AT&T I337

Does anyone know to which app the stock alarm/clock is associated. After rooting my phone i deleted a ton of bloatware, but nothing that specifically stated clock/alarm and now the app is gone, yet the alarm notification remains. I installed a few apks that claimed to be the stock one, but with no real luck. I'd go back and re-install all the app back-ups, but they were saved via TBU, to an eBay SD card that was bunk, so all were lost. I'm also missing the stock weather app as well, maybe it's a related issue. Thank in advance.

Here is a link to dashclock.apk and deskclock.apk https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B_WWZ1YWAfoLUnVWMENfQ1hTYnM/edit

Next time freeze the apps instead of deleting them if you don't know what it is you are doing. It will save you a lot of trouble. And the small amount of space you can create deleting apps isn't worth the trouble.
