[Q] Sonic CD app problem with screen resolution

I downloaded Sonic CD and it loaded fine without errors, but it does not play fullscreen. So it's pretty much unusable at this time. Would a build.prop edit fix this? Any other suggestions?

Works fine for me on CM7. It seems to work for some and not for others. Try adjusting your lcd density?

I found a solution and posted it in the thread mentioned in the last post. ^

Thank you; great idea. Now, just can't seem to get the SD card files to load from within the app. :-( Seems to be a common reason why this app is getting some pretty bad reviews.

Flash Video Browsers for hulu.com

So the wife has been asking for a solution on watching videos hulu.com on the tablet, but afaik it doesn't work on any current browser. After putting my mad Google skill to work, found a paid app for $.99 called Flash Video Browser (buy it on Amazon cause Google market will show not compatible) which does the job.

I even tried it on my Nook Color and it works there too.

Check out civatos hulu flash installer....not positive but I think it will work with any rom and it installs hulu app so you don't have to use a browser......you could also flash his rom flexstriker along with above and watch hulu from stock browser.......if you wanna stay stock skyfire works if you set it to desktop and its free

Tried Civato's ROM with hulu flash, movies work fine but for tv shows, it just die out after the commercial. Beside, I needed a solution that will work on multiple tablets and this app seems to fit the need.

There is a apk floating around that works you just install it sorry I need to find it again so if someone finds it post URL please
Anywho it works well watched terra nova no problems works with all android devices!

downloading that hulu apk, thanks a ton for that! also, TC, its not quite as extensive as hulu plus but you could always go for crackle. its on the market, its free, and its actually quite good with a decent library (although small compared to netflix and hulu) but its full episodes and movies for free as long as you can live with the occasional commercial.

To get hulu to work on my rooted iconia, I took the " /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/libflashplayer.so" and opened it in a hex editor on my computer. Where I found "AND" followed by a version number I replaced it with "WIN". I then put the modified file back on the tablet in a different directory. I use script manager to run a script that replaces the existing file with the modified file whenever I start the tablet. I also changed the UA string for the browsers I am using to use "desktop". For the stock browser, you type "about:debug" to getting the settings that allow you to so.
I found information about doing this on other forums. Script for copying is below. You need to set execute permissions on libflashplayer.so after you put it back on the tablet. I used Es file manager in root mode to get access to everything.
cp /data/flashhack/libflashplayer.so /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/libflashplayer.so

[Q] Kindle Fire Must Haves

Ok folks, so I rooted and got CM7 up and running on my KF.
I am coming from my evo that has cm on it, and know what works well. I was wondering if we could get some input here as to what apps people really love for their kindle.
What apps suit the Kindle more so than other devices etc?
Basically....if you have a kindle fire...what apps or games can you not live without?

Kindle app is a must have

Wunderlist task manager, Evernote(note taking app), ComicRack eComic reader, EZ PDF Reader, Sketchbook Mobile

Screen Dim is a must to reduce the screen brightness while reading.
File Expert is the perfect file explorer.
Wifi explorer pro is top notch for file transfers
DROPBOX hands down incredible

Thanks for the screen dim suggestion!!!!!!!! Awesome

Best Volume Widget
Touchscreen Booster
Go Launcher
Root Explorer
XDA Premium (duh, lol)

SPB Shell 3D...runs you a cool $15 but it's well worth it if you have multiple devices.

I actually prefer Box to Dropbox nowadays. The major reason is that I got a free upgrade to 50gigs.

Never mind. Did a titanium backup of spb on my phone, transferred it to the kindle and restored it. Changed interface to tablet and away I go!

I tried SPB Shell a while ago and had a lot of FC issues. That and it just seemed way over-priced to me.

any way to make adw ex look better? i have it and like it but the ensity hack is no where near as good as go launcher. but i dont want to use go launcher because i cant customize it the way i want

Netflix and Remote VNC Pro. I use them every day.

Don't forget KeePass for managing your passwords and credentials.
Store the KeePass database in your Dropbox folder to sync it across multiple devices.

Castle Wars is also a very fun game!
Craigslist has an app which is very useful and saves your searches and constantly updates them...very cool to keep up with steals ya na what i mean
also, i dont recommend the facebook app...it's always been very trashy from my user experience both on the phone and kf
teamviewer is also a very very useful app to access your home based computer or work based computer and email files through the net which you forgot to put in your cloud maybe

All great apps on my phone, but even better with the Kindle Fire's excellent audio and video:
Netflix, YouTube, MX Video Player, Google Maps, Google Earth, YouVersion, IP Cam Viewer, RealVNC Viewer, Unified Remote, ADW Launcher.

Looking to get order and chaos for kindle running CM9

Need a build prop that is compatible to run order and chaos for the fire running CM9. Any help would be appreciated
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire using xda premium

Any time I had issue with getting an app to work. I'd buy it off my GSII or Amaze. Then back up the APK and push it to my Mytouch 4G Slide. You bought it, so there's nothing wroung with pushing it to another device. As long as its yours.
::HTC Doubleshot:: Virt. Inq v2.

I had to uninstall Hellfire CM7 and ReloadedROM CM9 because neither one allows me to install any of the "Kindle Fire Edition" games that i bought off amazon store.
In addition, most of the games don't show up in google play store either. My phone can't download them as it says not compatible either so I have no way to officially download the games that I bought.
I think we have to use MODACO ROM for now. It is the only usable ROM if you want to watch movies, use Play music and play the games for Kindle Fire without frustration. No CM7 or CM9 that I have tried can do any of this as well as MODACO.
If anyone can come up with a way for the games to work please let us know it would make those great ROMS worth using. I know the HWA will be solved soon with the new kernel, so maybe that would fix most trouble?

Idk I love the ics cm9 Roms just need to games to follow Me there.... that's what's holding me back

You are awesome! Thanks for finding this. I just got my Nexus 7 back from being RMA'd. I upgraded to Kit Kat and yes, this works!!!
You DO have to make sure flash is turned ON and not set to "On Demand" in Dolphin browser.
Also, if you install the Jetpack add-on while having Dolphin browser open, then you need to close Dolphin and re-open it after Jetpack is installed or else, flash videos won't work.
Once I got it all installed, I went straight to Amazon Instant Video and brought up last night's episode of American Horror Story. That is ONE twisted show!
Thanks again for posting this link!
