Anyone got xbmc working? - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

downloaded and installed the app, but doesn't let me add a source, or do very much at all.

Been trying to get it working for ages and gave up. would not render correctly in landscape .....shame as it looks really good.
You had any luck with its rendering or just downloads/usage ?

nah, I can get it to load, but that's about it. none of the buttons seem to do anything.

i thought the buttons did nothing but it seems you have to double click!!!!!

I could do that, but then someone else would want it the other way. I'm afraid I can't please everyone. I've made it this way so that it works the same as default rotation on the phone.
I'm not at home this weekend, so won't be making any changes, but I suppose I could create a registry entry that allows you to say whether you want left or right handed.
Check back on Monday or Tuesday
Great app, working very nicely

Done!
There's now 3 versions - left rotate, right rotate, and upside-down (for the 1 person I've seen asking for this )
Hope this helps
isnt working for me. Just giving a black screen when rotating. I unzipped on the phone and copied the two files to the windows folder. reset the phone and nothing. it is rotating but just giving me a black screen in the middle of the top and bottom bars.
Any sugestions?
Thanks mate.

Where are you doing it? It doesn't want to work on manila, but is fine with other applications.
ohh right so this wont rotate manilla. like the homescreen and twitter app for instance?

For some (unknown) reason, manila doesn't seem to like being forced into landscape. The upside-down version works fine, but not the landscape versions.
I'll have to do some testing and see if there's anything that can be done, but it doesn't look promising right now.
Edit:
I've had a play and it seems that Manila simply doesn't like landscape, unless it does it itself (photos & videos, music tabs etc..)
Ok well thanks for trying anyway

Smart Keyboard

Hey guys finally someone has gotten smart enough to make the first multi touch keyboard. It's called Smart Keyboard in the market and its free. It's still in beta and is very buggy and ugly. They keyboard is going in the right direction, maybe someone can build on it and perfect it? Thanks.
Care to share some pictures??

You can see the screenshots in the market. And it doesn't look THAT bad. Basically a white version of the stock keyboard.
Multi-touch seems to help my typing a lot. Even without the auto-correction (which is supposedly going to be added in the Pro version later on), I can type almost perfectly, compared to the many mistakes I make with the stock keyboard.

I agree its definitely a step better than the stock keyboard. One problem is that it doesn't show the letter when you hit it, it's just blank. Cant wait for a pro version or for someone to make a more improved app.
very nice keyboard indeed. the vibrate option doesnt work on my n1. its also missing the voice input but istill like it because it implements multitouch correctly unlike the stupid stock kboard
So I just downloaded app and selected it from language & keyboard settings but I still end up with the stock KB. Any ideas on how to switch it?

Hold down on a text box and it should say "Input method". Click that and should display the keyboards you have installed/enabled.

Alright fixed the problem thx!
Still needs quite a bit of work. All in all, it sort of reminded me..why exactly do we need a multi-touch keyboard now? Sure ive used the iphone keyboard....but it doesnt make a world of difference if the OS isnt built around the function.
fantastic find. using it to write this response and this is an amazing fix for me. not sure if it is the multitouch or not, but either way i like it
pretty good missing some features but i feel a bit more accurate with it.
Not bad! This has a lot of potential...
ill run it again once the bugs/fixes are worked out

vibrate works fine - just very faint.. it's a light pulse rather than a strong/long vibrate.

You can tell its multi touch if say you hold down the A key and then press the J key it will type the A then the J right after it.
Wish they could add holding Q for number 1 etc like the HTC one!
Only thing I really want.

What FC?
I'm running the original one dropped off by Paul. Zero issues.
FC = Force close, same happend to me first time...
Can't notice any difference to be honest Maybe a tiny tiny bit
Now i can put in full size every flash element by long pressing on it and select the full screen icon. I can't remember if you could do that before.
Video rendering frame rate seems to have improved a bit
i don't know if b4 the update vimeo worked for any of you guys but it now works for me, and hbo's website wasnt really working for me b4 but now with this update its working better then b4!

Obviously since the flash player download only shows up for 2.2 only.
Double tapping a video always full screens it for me.....

I guess that is only if you don't have it installed. I installed Flash then changed my build file and the update came up fine.
For me, a real test of Flash is to use Dolphin Browser HD and set my UA to Desktop and then hit www.disney.com.
I used to work for them supporting the site and it's one of the more intensive flash sites out there. What I love is that after the update, it works smooth as silk. EVERY imbedded video plays flawlessly and smooth (over 3G) and can navigate the site without issue.
Way to go!

That stopped working for me before the update, I was hoping this update would fix it; no go, but long press works fine so no big deal.
Can someone help me? I've had flash install since I updated to 2.2 and now when I go to the market can not find the flash player. I also tried adobe site and follow the link then I get "requested item not found " anyone knows what's wrong or can help?? Unrooted.

Droid X car dock app works on DI

Just thought there might be some people that would want this, so far i have had no problems out of it.
Here ya go....

Thanks for putting this out there, any chance we can rev this so that the music and contacts don't force close? I'd like to see this working before I make the switch.
Great start btw, much appreciated.
what does this do? nvm found out its the same as carpanel that comes with the incredible but looks ugly.
No problem i like it cause the buttons are bigger, as far as making the music and stuff work im no dev or anything but im sure a dev could you would hav to have any other files that support. And with the DI being rooted the possibilities are basically endless.

I finally got around to trying this. A huge improvement over the default Incredible Car Panel... Would really like to see the contacts work but the ability to turn on the bluetooth as well as to have something as simple as landscape mode really makes this a winner for me and looks like it was well thought out. I'm tempted to get started in development just to contribute to this app... unfortunately I'm a script kiddie at best. But I will keep my hopes up that someone with skill can delve into this.

It's not overly pretty but it is fast and much more functional. Why did HTC leave out landscape mode??
Ditto, I would really love it if someone can fuzz those two items.
Everything else works like a charm, its so simple and functional
WooHoo - Last.fm button in Car mode
Thanks for posting this. I was getting so frustrated because I disabled the stock Music.apks and couldn't get Settings Profiles to load up either Last.fm or Pandora.
I however, would love to remove the music button as well from this dock. I want to be able to have my last.fm and Pandora buttons and everything else can stay (haven't experienced a force close yet..)
I have it set in Settings Profiles that when I'm on USB charger and headset/aux it activates car mode (no screen timeout) and runs CarDock.apk. Having both those apps on there would be awesome.
How many beers would I have to buy someone to do that..? Or, how hard is it to do that myself..nm, scratch that.

And... what does this image do for Kainy, exactly? EDIT: Ok, I got it, it's helpful, but we need touchpads. Do you know anything about making touchpads work? I don't think we can do it without gamekeyboard/GKM touch/other similar apps.

That image sure saves some time, thanks but for all I know we need GKM touch + the onscreen analog sticks of kainy to make that work. Did you try some heavy game? I tried oblivion some time ago, when kainy was first released. It didn't go that well sadly... also there aren't enough buttons, it seems
