Anroid and Skype - General Questions and Answers

Good afternoon to all of you from Athens
It is my second post in your community
I need your help.
Recently i bought a netbook Toshiba AC100-10G with the software of Anroid 2.1
The broblem is that does not support the SKYPE service
Somebody in Athens told me for Anroid market. Even Toshiba Greece replied me that they cannot install the Skype with Anroid 2.1
Is it so difficult?
Can you pls help me how to do that step by step because i am not so expert.
And sorry if my English is poor
Thanks all for your attention
Somebody from your community sent me this message
Update to Android 2.2 using Toshiba Service Station.
Then download Skype apk for android.
Then install Skype using apk.
But i visited the Toshiba market and i could not find anything regardind Anroid 2.2
Is there anyone who can give me a link for this version?
Thanks all for your attention.............

Νοbody to help ?

Didn't realise you could get Android installed like that on a laptop. Awesome. So does the laptop ship with that software on already? If so have you tried contacting Toshiba technical support?
I'm sure someone more knowledgeable might give you a better answer....

I doubt you could .....

Good morning to all of you from the sunny today Greece
Unfortunately my friends,My son bought this netbook with no checking the specifications.
Toshiba Greece replied us that they can not install the Skype with the Anroid 2.1 version on. But somebody here in your forum said that if i download the Anroid 2.2 then i will have the Skype video calls.
The problem is that i can not find anywhere a link to download it
Thanks for your attention and your replies.

thanks, good help

Android 2.2 for Toshiba
You would have to find a version of Android that has been made specifically for the Toshiba netbook.
Unless someone has created an unofficial version, the best option is Toshiba. Ask them when they plan to release Android 2.2.

Good morning from the sunny today Athens/Greece
Unfortunately they do not know.I asked Toshiba/Greece and they said that in the next weeks they are going to upgrade the Anroid 2.1.
The problem is that they sell products with no Skype support.
Thanks for your reply..............

NetFront No Longer Sells this
I bought a LocationFree off ebay and it was advertised as for windows mobile but now can not get the software because Netfront no longer allows it to be sold or downloaded.
The upgraded model is still for sale at the BB by my house and still advertise that it works on windows mobile.
This is crap. I snapped a picture with my phone and sent the picture and link to the AG in my state. At this point I am of the opinion that Sony is the spawn of the Devil.

The English version has been posted on this forum by another user. I have the Japanese version and when I downloaded the English version, the serial worked. All of the settings were already populated as well, even though I removed the Japanese version from my mobile device already prior to installing the English version. I hope this helps!

I posted a free listing on the most popular online auction site in the Want It Now section. Luckily, someone had the software (Japanese version) and sold it to me for $20 or $30. This was in December 2008. Recently, I downloaded the English version and the serial works for it as well. I have it installed on my hp iPAQ hx2115 which I purchased online. I hope this helps!

LG GM730 Upgrades

I am thinking of getting this phone. But before doing so, I would like to know if there are any developers who would be building ROMS for this phone etc. Since the GM750 will be running on WM6.5, I'm sure there would be developers who would be cooking roms for the GM730 also. And is this phone the same as other windows mobile phones? Meaning able to install ROMS and CAB files etc?
The price is very reasonable compare to other WM phones. And that would make it fun to just buy the phone and play around with cooking ROMS into it.
It is upgradeable to 6.5 from company itself. U can upgrade it from Service Centers.

Where did you get this info? I saw an upgrade to 6.5 only for Chinese users.
LG GM730f WM 6.5 update ROM from LG?
I got an email from LG Australia that this is ready for download/update - but have not got it working so far
Search google for "Trying to install lgs wm6.5 update to gm730f" for my post
I'm also having trouble.
Just spoke to LG support who are aware of the problem!
They will apparently post me a disc with the ROM, so i'll let you guys know if that happens!
LG GM730f - Factory Default raw files Dumped
Hi All,
Just in case anyone would like a working copy of the default factory RAW files I have managed to successfully download these using the ItsUtilBin tools.
Would I be correct in thinking that I might then be able to use one of the Kitchen utilities to create this in to a ROM update?
Hopefully I'll get time to contact LG tomorrow - I wonder if they will be kind enough to use FTP? ;-)
Cheers,
Dave

Hi HughJarse (nice handle BTW )
Any ideas who you spoke to? LG are now denying this - I could give you an FTP to post to if you do get a copy?
Cheers,
Dave
****RETRACTION****
Apparently someone in LG Aust does know about the 6.5 update and the latest knews is that someone from LG Technical is supposed to be ringing me this afternoon with details?
I didn't catch the name of the person i spoke to, but I'll certainly be happy to help you if I get a copy of the ROM!

Hi Dave
Did LG get back to you yet, because I'm still waiting!?
No joy as of 30th Jan ;-(
Hi Hugh
So although they did know about the 6.5 upgrade it *appears* that it wasn't *approved* by Telstra - or at least that's what I was told.
They also seemed to understand that their upgrade process wasn't all it could be? Head over to the other thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5480790 and keep an eye on things?
It's well worth downloading the Service Manual for the GM730f LOL
Dave
Hi Dave
Thanks for the heads up and the link
I'd be quite happy to use a custom ROM because I'm getting increasingly frustrated and P**sed off with LG and telstra!

In the meantime I'm trialing some of the SPB Software and it makes it look a whole lot more usable - but I can't wait to get something decent on the phone - OR it's up on ebay and I'll be looking for a Samsung replacement...!!
Stupid question, but what's SPB?!
I spoke to someone from LG yesterday and she was trying to tell me the update comes from microsoft. Sigh.
Theres not much hope when the company that makes the phones has reps answering calls who talk out of their A**e!
I'm beginning to wish i'd done a bit more research before i got this phone

Just installed SPB (found it at the site of the little green demon)
looks good, but how do you get it to start every time you turn the phone on?!
forget that, just worked it out!

Thinkflood redeye mini

Has anyone hacked this app to see if it will work on the G tablet or know if an android version will be released?
Thanks
Well, here's an email from their customer service.
Hi,
Thanks for your email and your interest in RedEye. We do not have the Android version developed yet, but we're beginning development for that OS at the start of the new year. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Porting for Lenovo LePhone: WE WILL PAY!

Nowadays many user are complaining about LePhone, and mainly about its ROM. First, users dislike Lenovo's custom-made OS. Second, it rarely updates. Its latest version is still Android 2.2.1 but the latest version of Android is already 2.3.5! So we came up with the idea: Hire some guys that are very good at porting systems to port CM to LePhone!
Although Lenovo haven't opened the source code, but I think there's still a another way because a guy called "zbwu" ported an Android 2.3.2 to LePhone on January 2011.But unfortunately he sold his LePhone later and bought a DHD instead.
So we are really thirsty looking for someone to port CM to LePhone! The total pay is 10000RMB (About 1567USD)(Maybe more, maybe less).
If you are interseted in this, please send a message to me!
And finally, thank you! Please forward this to other forums if you can, and we would be very thankful for that!
Please make CM for LePhone!!!

telefunken tpad-70a3gi

Hi everyone.
Firstly thank you to anyone who has taken the time to read this thread and those who might be able to assist me.
I know NOTHING about tablets or netpads ect. I have a two year old son, and i heard there were some great apps on google play which could help him with his educational development. I basically took all my savings and bought a TELEFUNKEN net pad tpad-70a3gi
The shop i bought it at told me that because its an android and android is google, it would work on google play, i took it home only to find out i cant get google play to work on it, some kind of p**** error. i took it back, but the shop wont take it back, "to bad" i was told.
anyway, i heard that if i can upgrade the software from android 2.1 to 2.2, i might be able to use google play, can anyone help me with this? or even root it or rom it whatever that means, i have been trying to find a solution for over two months now, so this is really my last hope, i heard the guys on XDa are the best... so please help me!!!!
many thanks
kindest regards
calvin
