[Q] Skype, Vegantab, Gtablet problems - General Questions and Answers

I have a Viewsonic GTablet 10". My son-in-law installed Vegan-Tab Ginger Edition 7.0.0 on it. I downloaded Skype, but am having some issues getting it to work. I can get in to Skype, but when I use the Echo/Sound Test Service, I am getting the sound through the tablet speakers, not my headphones.
I searched for clues on how to fix this, and all it said was to go into the Audio settings to change it, but I can't seem to locate any "Settings" of any sort in the Skype that is downloaded on the tablet.
I'm sure it's something simple, but not simple enough for me to find on my own. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks!

Apps back in the market?

I dont know what going on but a bunch of apps are showing up in the market that were not there. Some background, Im using the unofficial MoDaCo 1.2 with a modified build prop. updated with MR info. Just checked the market and bust-a-move and Pic Say Pro are now back the market.
Anyone else having apps show up in the market?
That's a negative good buddy. Still no sign of SU File Manager 3.0.6. Yep I paid for it and it's gone along with a few of the TTS engines I paid for.
Not there yet for me.
eBuddy's not back on either
That's because the developers probably turned off copy-protection on the app but the issue hasn't been fixed.
just upgraded to modaco 1.2...and yes, i was missing a paid app (droidlive), but it has now reappeared.
also, for anyone interested, playing media via bluetooth speakers works perfectly on this ROM
Yea he did it by putting the old props file back in so it has the phone identify to the market that it's still version 1.26. I had mentioned in a few threads that I could add that to fresh rom if needed but wanted to see if Google/Sprint would fix the issue rather than tricking it in to something it wasn't. Although I've had multiple reports from people using Fresh that the apps were showing up for them even without a modified props.
I'm not sure yet. But maybe I'll put a modified one in mine also. I don't see how it could possibly affect it, but I wonder if that is some how related to the bluetooth speakers too? I'll check it out.

I can't see how. I can confirm that stock sprint rom with MR update Bluetooth works normally. I ran your 0.4 and saw the BT audio streaming issues.

Anyone have a problem w [email protected] 2010?

I LOVE this appA! Probably my most used, and it unfortunatly hangs on the game overview screen, after a short dimming of the screen. Real bummer for me bc everything else is working great for me on Froyo!
...does anyone have this running successfully on FroYo?? Ive tried pushing into system/app thinking protection was maybe an issue but to no success...any help would be greatly appreciated!
There was another thread on here with ppl that had problems with this same app after froyo was installed. It doesnt even show up in the app store for froyo users. I have an off topic question: does androids mlb at bat app show live video feed of games? I kno the iphone app does. Thanks.
no its audio only and i miss this app tempted to go back to cm because i miss my baseball

Only works with 2.1 so far, no 2.2 support thusly the darkened screen.
No wonder... I kept thinking MLB at Bat shut my app
off.
just curious...since the MLB app is just for phone access, has anyone tried connecting with their desktop service with flash? Did it work well? I have a hard time justifying purchasing the android app if i dont get comp access as well, especially since it may be possible to have both.
Have not tried myself...
Anyone maybe have a fix for this since this thread has been started though? Still seems to have same issue.
it works just fine for me running 2.2 manual update
No problems with it either, manual download
I was experiencing the non-responsive dimmed screen as well. I went into the application info screen under Settings >> Applications >> Manage Applications and cleared data, cleared cache, forced stop, reopened...and it worked like with 2.1.
What do you mean manual download... I've been wanting to download this and I can't find it on the marketplace

[Q] Need help with tethering MyTouch 3G GPS to Gtab?

Hello,
Thanks to all the great folks here on this forum I have modded my Gtab and I am really loving the experience.
I am currently running TnT Lite 2.4 and find it very stable. I did the Market fix that allows most os the apps to show up. Still using the old Market interface which accurately shows my downloaded and purchased apps. I have installed ADWlauncher EX and not looked back.
Since buying my Gtab I have rooted my MyTouch 3g 1.2 and implemented Barnacle to create an ad hoc wifi hotspot that works very well with my Gtab.
I read somewhere here that somebody was able to connect their phone GPS to the Gtab through the use of a combination of shareGPS and BlueGPS. I can't seem to find the shareGPS application anywhere on the Market with my phone or the Gtab. Is this due to the fact that my phone is still an Android 1.6 phone? If possible can someone point me to the sharegps apk file that would work on my phone?

Market Connection / Retry Issue

Anyone else getting a connection / retry error when navigating the market?
Yes. Thought it was just me !
Mention your mods, please - that will help all of us out. I've been hearing about Market issues in TnT Lite for the last few days, which is one of the reasons why I pulled it. Also, whether or not you're using data2loop or custom kernels, as these could all be factors. TNTL 4.00 had data2loop built-in. Thanks!
been running 4.0 for days..no problems...tonight tried to go on market and got retry issue. Decided to try vegan tonight anyway...having problems with market there as well
Curious, any of you using 'custom' DNS servers like FreeDNS or google DNS? I was using google DNS and having all sorts of issues w/ market, on both my gTab and Droid, switch DNS back to my ISP and so far no issues for about 2 weeks now.
Hey guys, I was just redoing the market fix on my g-tab, and I thought a messed something up because I was getting this error. The tab was is on Vegan 5.1 (no kernal mod). However, after retrying the market fix a few more times I could not get it to work. I looked at my Eris, and it was down there too. It leads me to believe something is wrong somewhere external to our devices.
I tried vegan tonight and just now finally have access to market but i can find tons of apps but not some of the most basic...dolphin hd i can only find themes...when i search for facebook i get everything but facebook. Hopefully its on googles end.
Hmmm...I just accessed market on my captivate and its finding things fine. I was trying to find launcher pro on my tab and it won't find it. Captivate brought it right up.
I just picked up the tablet 1 days ago. I'm running the enhancement pack. Everything else is stock. Used default recovery. No issues day 1.
I started getting the error after I installed clockwork and repartitioned to 2048 0 AND cleard the various caches today.
Could be a coincidence.

That was the reason I tried the marketplace fix in the first case. I was seeing a ton of apps, but not weather bug or a few other apps that I could find on my Eris. I read that doing the old market fix with whats already in VEGAn should fix it and give all, but I can't tell.
Edit: its back up, but I still am unable to find weatherbug and idk what other apps.
Edit: Edit: Just retried the market fix again, and I am getting the connection error again. Eris is still working
I'm seeing tons of apps...just not the ones i need. No weatherbug,launcherpro,facebook,
The first time i had the market problem i was only seeing a few apps. At first glance it now looks complete but i can't find anything.
Seems like every app i use is not coming up. Craigsphone, weatherbug, facebook, launcherpro, dolphin hd The only two apps i found so far are xda and my jeep wrangler app. Thats it?
Went back to 3.14 last night. Been having the retry issue now.
I did keep hitting retry (5 - 8 times) and get the market to work. I do have to keep hitting the retry button sometimes as I navagate though the market.
I haven't been able to find rock player since last night after my reflash.
maybe the problem is with the market itself?
Okay, I followed the post 2 posts up and kept hitting retry and between error messages trying to navigate the market. I was able to find weatherbug, but I still would like to get the error fixed. Hopefully it will resolve itself soon.

Same thing here, must be something with the market itself.
seems like mine is starting to repopulate. I had to hit retry in the listings just now and there are more showing.
I can't find weather bug.
What fingerprint is in your guide.prop?
running 5.1 Vegan , had the same problem with market error / retry. So did the market fix again and cleared data under market. Now markets working again without the error/retry.

Sorry bout that. I'm on stock 3452.
I did note that market was not FC'ing. Rather, it was getting a server error, so I assumed it was a server error on their end.

P.S. I eventually do get in usually, by keep clicking retry.

I had that come up last night too (Market terms and conditions). I just accepted it but I couldn't find Skyfire or some other apps I knew should be there. I was going to do the market fix again later.
Currently running VeganTab b5.1

[Q] cm7 camera fc

I have a viewsonic gtablet running cm7 with which i am very pleased. I started with tnt lite and found it to be slow. Im new to the tablet scene, but ive searched alot for this issue to no avail. My only problem is when i click the factory camera app i get a force close error. Ive tried using the restore to fix permissions with no success. Ive also tried several video chat apps that ddnt work either.
My reason for purchasing a tablet was to video chat with my wife when i join the air force so the camera and video chat are the most important functions for me.
Any advice on how to achieve these ends would be appreciated
