[APP] Fennec (Firefox) for Android - Nexus One Themes and Apps

MartinSchirr over at Android Forums has compiled Fennec for Android, with a demo video and everything. I've tried it to no result on my N1 (hit launch, screen went black and my phone hung; I suspect it's because I'm using apps2sd), but I dunno, maybe you guys might have better luck. Guy's server seems a tad slow, so I slapped it on Sendspace here:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/g6kp6p
Update: okay, gave it another whirl. The person responsible for compiling this wasn't kidding about 41 MB; even with apps2sd, it still takes up roughly 33 MB of internal storage. Giant ouch. And here I thought Google Earth was big.
The initial launch results in a black screen and the OS hanging. Not sure why or what it is doing there, but as iSecks said, after rebooting it works. Sort of. I can't for the life of me type in a URL. Kept poking at the address bar and inputting random letters, but no go. This was compiled for use on the Droid, so it may very well not gel with an N1 (I've got Modaco Desire ROM, for what that's worth). If anyone's had better success on an N1, I'd like to hear about it. Still, I must say that it looks a lot more sophisticated than any other Android browser available right now.
Here are some screenshots.

Not working on magic with cupcake rom...
its probably compiled for 2.x
But big news.
I wonder how it can be 40 megabytes when installed... largest app I have seen I think

Installed it on my Droid, works. It's kinda slow, but it works. My phone hung the first time running it, but after a reboot it ran faster than I thought it would run [which was still slow for everyday use.] Nice interface though, I thought it would be harder to use than it actually was. What's nice is it has the popup for unresponsive javascript scripts that let you stop executing them.

Huh, guess Mozilla meant it when they said it's just not optimized for Android yet. I should give it another go.

Hi,

I take it the name is "GeckoApp" in the Launcher. I tried it on my Nexus One and I get the big Launch button but then its just a black screen. I tried rebooting but got the same. Any idea how to fix it please?

Yeah tried on my nexus as well and its not working same launch button. I think this is weird it has no drawable folders inside and looks just weird inside.

Martin said it doesn't work without a hardware keyboard.

Tried it anyway, got a button on a black screen, clicking on the button left with just the black screen
Waited...nothing...killed it. Will keep an eye out for newer builds!

Works decent in Droid. No touch input, so at this point you need a hard keyboard. I'm sure that will be a quick fix. No multi-touch yet either. It's promising, but it has some catching up to do before it could be a replacement for stock browser.

other links please

Same issue on Droid Eris running 2.1 ROM Leak v2

Works on my droid. Stock 2.0.1. Numbers don't work on keyboard after hitting alt. Animated gifs DO work however, which is nice. It has great potential. Nice to see xda getting talked about and linked to from gizmodo. I would have never found this build. Thanks to OP.

Wont install on my CDMA Hero running Damage's 2.1. I know it won't fully function without a hardware KB. I hoped it would at least load, just for the visual.

Just force closes here on my 32A with Legend ROM.

Looks hot
A couple questions
1) Does it animate gif's like a real web browser should?
2) Can you upload files with it like a real web browser should?
(I can't believe Google left these 2 gigantic critical features OUT)

New User Interface

Hello,
Pointui.com has launched a new user interface, similar like iphone and its free.
Check out a detail review over here.
Nice!
Looks very promising. But I think it will be a real memory eater. Can't wait to see the first reviews.
Interface
interesting, looks very nice. apparently, they will release their first version at midnight today. can't wait 00.00 and by the way, i wish u all a happy happy new year with out beloved wizards

It does look nice, but you realize that was a demo, right? I'd like to see a real demo with an actual running copy of it with a real finger using it. As far as I could tell, thats just a flash (or similar) example.
BTW the website (with countdown clock) is at http://there-is-no-place-like-home.com/
mfrazzz, if you want to know for sure then go and download it
It's now available.
BTW: I'll retract my above statement after watching this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRw1T-N5dic&feature=user
Looks impressive as the other demo.

Thanks and it looks very slick and is very responsive. I have issues trying to setup my home location for weather though. First, I find it odd that USA is seperate from North America . Then when I select Colorado and choose a letter (C for example) it first loaded the B's. Then I exited out and came back in (as it kept showing B) and did it again. Choose C again and it loaded W's...
Still this look very impressive. Are we allowed to cook this into roms?

It's free, and I didn't see any licensing information so I don't know why not.
Hi mfrazzz, sounds like you are hitting the right of the screen in the area that activates bookmark scroll try clicking in the center or to the left.
In the future it would be great if you guys want to burn it into roms, but if I was you I would wait for a few bugs to get sorted out. We are going to be spending the next few weeks working through issues that have already been raised in our forums.

Yeah, I think my problem is I'm doing quick and light presses. I need to get the feel of this, but if I do a more firm press its selecting thing properly. So I think this is a case of user error in learning this

Yep, fully understand.
Quick question... Is there anyway to get to the Apps that are located in the Start Menu? (\Windows\Start Menu) . This seems to show apps starting at \Windows\Start Menu\Programs . So by default things like Office, Contacts, etc are not available (unless I'm missing something again).
On first blush, I'm impressed so far. Now people need to rewrite the apps underneath so they are more finger friendly too
Hi mfrazzz, try in Favorites.

Its really useful, but theres is some of the thing that is missing in it, if intigerated than it would one of the most useful program a winmo user will ever need. I will write a review on it may be tommorow check my blog.
This looks freaking sweet. There is one thing that I noticed though. Kinetic/Touch scrolling is normally done opposite in the direction of scroll so that the text/image follows the direction of your movement. This seems to bg going in the direction of scroll. Is there a setting to change this?

You can change this. Hit your settings button (upper right gear symbol) The change it to object navigation from slide naviagation)
Also for those that can't close programs. Hit the program name (of the app you have open)in the upper left, then choose force close. So far i have only seen this not work on the phone screen which you have to minimize.
I really like this interface and it's a keeper for me. The only issues i really have is #1) Reoccuring appointments do not show and #2) it defaults to outlooks e-mail instead of the account switcher. i don't use the outlook e-mail, instead i check 2 pop accounts. My work around for now is to add a shortcut to messaging to the startup and access it there.
If anyone has a work around for the above, please post it.
GREAT APP though!
Hi ROCOAFZ, version 1.01b is going to be available soon which allows for an alternative email store - you can specify a different store name and the unread email indicator is the total for all your email accounts. Won't have a screen to update it at this stage - just a registry val to set, but with a bit more time...
1.01b is going to be the first mass test of Update Manager. Man, I hope it works
Recurring appointments - on the list, but don't expect it within the next few days - we're back to day jobs as of tomorrow and presently spending time trying to tackle some of the bigger bugs. Actually, we are spending our time trying to keep up with our forum and getting no coding done
Glad you like it.
Hi everybody,
I have written a detail reveiw of pointui home here check it out.
well i just install it on my phone and i think it's a lovely app. run fairly smooth on my wizard. kinda lag on the switching of viewing mode, unlike the video. beside that i love.

I have installed and it's rather nice, data usage more than mini bout 2.5x on large pages, it's quick on page load, it's got a neat cube effect for history, got tabed browsing trying to get used to as it has no open in new tab, can't work out how to get to home page without closing or setting as bookmark.

you are a gentleman and a scholar.
i appreciate the quick run down. i guess ill give it a shot...
edit: hahah jeez..i make it sound like its manual labor to download and install....it must be monday...or im that damn lazy and unmotivated.
forgot to mention: i'm running the t-zones on t-mobile.
hmmm, other than having to get use to it and no obvious active zoom in and out buttons...i like it.
Also I'm gonna try and tweak the registry a bit...the scrollbars are WAY too thick.
can't find the registry settings...any help?
it looks like there is code available on the download page. that's not really my area though.

Yeah it was hardcore having to install that .cab, Just wanna congratulate you on your sticky that's slick.
After a bit of use i would say it's nice and free, but does not compare to Opera Mobile or Mini, i could see in the future it could with a little bit of tweaking, Home Page, Open in new tab.
Will keep it on phone and hope updates solve this.

If your new, what you do is use this button called "Search" button. Every site I have registered for, and trust me - when i say every site, i mean a lot of them be it mobile, car etc. How is that I've always been able to find my way by using the "search" button but most new users will not do that. Give the search button a try and just see the results, almost everything has been gone over.
Welcome to the site and Enjoy your stay here.
To answer your question, it's because you need to install TCPMP (A Media Player with special flash codecs) or search for vTAP for you to play youtube videos. Good Luck!
P.S: Noone is trying to be rude or mean, it's just that some members get ticked off because everyday we have newbies coming in and asking the same questions. Go through the first few stickies and you'll find that almost all your questions have been answered.
i do have tcpmp installed but it still comes up with error i did search but it came up with irelevent answers like unrecognised usb etcs

interactive backgrounds

hey guys,
is there any way to get interactive backgrounds on hd2, like on nexus one or desire? would be really nice
or is it possible to have the nexus one background on hd2, maybe without "interactive"?
thanks in advance,
shifty512
is not interactive/animated but I think this is what you want.
You can use it as a wallpaper.!
yeah thats it
but isnt it possible to have it animated or even interactive?

How do uninstall this? It's still on my apps list and start menu
I'm sorry but it's a pity someone posted TX. Schaps the dev of TX asked every tester to do not release his work. Don't be surprised if devs stop their hard work. So please remove the links, it's like WAREZ because not agreed by the author. And then what you got ? Complainers about "how does it work ?". Exactly the issue the private beta test avoid...

The phone, at least the T-Mobile version, comes with some animated wallpapers. Is there anyway to put something in the folder wherever they're stored and use that?
I'm not really sure what file type they are though either.

Google chrome apk for 2.3

dont know if anyone has found this in another thread or on the web, but heres a link to a version of google chrome you can download without running ics 4.0 on our atrix 2 phone. i downloaded it and been messing around with it. it looks nice but doesnt have extension as you would finfld in a full version. check it out.

Nice find! I have a tablet on ICS and i was able to play with it already. It had some bugs but i am sure when it is out of beta it will be amazing. I already love the chrome desktop browser and having them both integrated with bookmarks and etc will be awesome.

yeah, i also use it on my laptop wish i could set up the synce and such on here but its not there yet. but im a chrome user and being able to run it on something thats not on 4.0 yet is pretty nice even if its not fully built at this point. ive yet to run into any bugs as of yet, gonna keep ky eye out for a more fully functional build that can be ran on 2.3 phone and post it here if i do. i appreciate your thanks for posting this as well. (and anyone else thats may like this as well, sorry i cant thank every post)
This was a great find, I think I'm going to try this out. Chrome is a great web browser. Even better to have the Android version before ICE comes to the ATRIX 2.
This is not Chrome - this is Miren browser, just patched up to look like Chrome... Even when you first load it up, it says "Welcome to Miren browser" in a foreign language!

Nextbook Next7s Hacking

E-Fun's latest Android tablet is now on the shelf at BigLots. It's a $99 budget device running 4.0 ICS.
I tried to install Android Market (the easy way) and the app crashes. I take that means this tablet will require a little more work. Has anyone hacked it yet?
I am also interested in knowing how to get Gapps to work on this as well...just purchased mine on the 27th at Big Lots too for the $89.99 special, been trying all apk's with no luck..keeps on crashing when clicking it.
When I sent a note to E Fun asking if there were any plans to update and add Google support, the response was:
This is not an issue we can change. Like the majority of tablets on the market Google will not grant a licenses to use their app market. The tablets are designed to work with third party Android apps sites where you can still download Android apps, the only difference is it's from a different website.​
Of course I sent them a list of bunches of budget tablets that come with access...
I don't have the technical savvy to create the necessary mods -- but if anybody out there is interested, and there's anything I can do to assist, please let me know! With access to the google apps, this would be one sweet little tablet for the price!
I found this but it is for the next7 ...shouldn't be much different, or so I'd think...I will give it a try I suppose.

I'm pretty sure that was written for Gingerbread, not ICS. The last couple of posts kind of imply that it didn't work on the Next7S.
Your right...besides not finding the USB drives anywhere (as I cannot get the sdk's to work on it) I tried to uploading the files then install and cannot get some of the apks to install, like the GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk, GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk & GoogleServicesFramework.apk all others installed fine. With no luck on keeping the market from crashing boo! I am sure someone will be able to come up with something in due time, I hope.
Look at freaktab.com - Finless Bob has cooked a rooted rom with Google app,Super user and /system mounted r/w.
The download includes all neccessary instructions, files and utility - including driver - for Next7s. There is one clarification that I think will help... To get into the download / flash mode you need to hold down on volume rocker so that BOTH (volume up | down)switches are activated.
Thanks SO MUCH Moonpie! This has worked! With no problems and coming from me I always flub up something but the directions were very nicely typed out.
Try this blissb2599, only problem I am having is quiet a bit of apps are not compatible like my banking ... facebook, but I have an apk for facebook, old version but works lol...
Great to here reddtessa! Sorry to hear about apps not working. Maybe there will be some tweaks in future.

Thanks for the link. I just picked up a 7s for my kid yesterday after the Next5 we got him originally quit working. I DLed the Play store APK and was like OMG-WTH every time it kicked us out. The Next5 came rooted (out of a sealed box) and had no issues with Google Play from a standard APK. If you guys have this working on the Next7s (YF031 serial) then I'll flash it.
One thing I find hysterical is on the box it states it is a Capacitive Screen, but my kid used his generic plastic stylus (intended for an older Nintendo DS) and it worked! I even tried a pencil eraser and it worked too. Does that make this a hybrid Capacitive/Resistive screen then?
****Update, I got clarification in the other thread on the two different versions of the rom. All is well, the tablet is now rooted, and is running Google Play on the Finless Rom. Very happy with how quick it was to do as well. Thanks again for the link!
Please help!

Look at freaktab.com - Finless Bob has cooked a rooted rom with Google app,Super user and /system mounted r/w.
The download includes all neccessary instructions, files and utility - including driver - for Next7s. There is one clarification that I think will help... To get into the download / flash mode you need to hold down on volume rocker so that BOTH (volume up | down)switches are activated.
