Kobo Arc - Android General

I don't know if I'm putting this in the correct place and if I'm wrong, I'm sorry. I haven't seen anyone talking about the new tablet the book company Kobo is about to launch. It seems quite good though? What do you think? http://www.kobo.com/koboarc

Yeah it's quite fast, and very cheap.
What is a bugger is that without GPS it won't install a lot of apps from the Google Play Store.
And I hope someone here will root it, so I can make it connect to an ad-hoc Symbian WiFi tether... who knows what the future will bring..

Thanks, dude. Can you post any results of benchmarking apps, please?
Also... a doubt: can you tell us if the Arc have built-in USB OTG support?

Nice finally some activity about the Kobo Arc, I tried a few basic rooting methods but I've never really did that by myself before so I'm not sure how to go about it if anyone can find a root method it would be great! So far I really like the tablet for the price you really can't go wrong and I like to screen better the nexus 7

Wow. Thanks for your replies. There isn't an Arc forum on XDA for me to post right? These thread is in the right place I hope?

No, there aren't forum (or not yet, I mean )

got one sitting in a box wrapped for Christmas. wife won't let me open it:laugh:been trying to get some more info on it on the MobileRead forums which has a Kobo section. for some reason everyone so far is having trouble getting flash to work. afaik flash should still be working on 4.0.4 and i would like to know if it is before i open the box. not fussed about GPS but would like flash working as i use apps like TVCatchup

I just read that the UX lead for Kobo has confirmed no OTG source
now I'm on the fence about getting it

It's still running 4.0.4. Wasn't otg not enabled on a number of devices with jelly bean

I don't think the android version affects whether otg is supported on a certain device. It depends on the hardware and software capabilities

from a quick check it seems to be tied to the kernel version.

I was given an Arc for Christmas. Nice piece of kit.
We will probably need more than 20 posts before getting a dedicated forum
For everyone else, I am also (half ass'd) working on a root for it...When time permits.

I right away installed go launcher for tablets and got rid of the stock "tapiture" or whatever they call it. Much more usable as a tablet now
Sent from my XT925 using xda app-developers app

Port our device to some nice third party firmware! I'd love to see CM10 running on our Arc. (I work for Kobo :3)
I do know our programmers are working on a 4.1 update sometime in January though. And yes, installing a launcher to disable tapestries and the discover bar really does make it a beautiful tablet. I personally use ADW launcher on all of my Android devices though. Looks great and it's quite fast.

i changed the device to ro.product.model=Nexus S in the build.prop to spoof the netflix app but still receiving the device support error -__-

Rumors has it that Flash 10.3 has something to do with it, but it's also integration with the chipset itself that has a lot to do with it as well.
I guess I was one of those that skipped the netflix generation and went straight into online streaming. I use Amazon VOD for pretty much everything. No native video app those yet, just mostly use it on my google TV. I honestly don't watch TV or movies on my phone.

+1 on that. I tend to watch Netflix on my T-MoUS Galaxy Tab (just got it working on that platform) or my iPad if I'm remote and not at home.
It's really painful watching streaming video on my phone and I don't do that unless I absolutely have to.
Im currently in the process of testing a few things to get this to work on the GS4g. I was having the strange problem that the netflix app would go back to the home screen after I login.
I am editing the build props and trying a few other things out. So far nothing, but if I get it working I will post how to do it.
I did a little bit of research and it appears that we wont be able to use the netflix application at all unless we have gingerbread on our device.
So without a ginger rom we are out of luck, that is unless we find a workaround or they update the app anytime soon.
I came to this conclusion after looking through the Vibrant forums under the themes and apps section, they also are having trouble with the Application.

Hey guys don't forget the app was only released for certain phone models so most of us will probably need to use some work arounds.
Its working great on Tytung Nexus 2.7. If its not working for you, try this...
- Replace drmprovider.apk in system/apps with this file ( http://www.htchd2forum.com/android-...odes-android-app/?action=dlattach;attach=1284 ). It is the drmprovider.apk from the LG Revolution, which has the required restrictions for Netflix. (Don't forget to back up the original first, just incase).
- Change model name in build.prop to Nexus One (model approved for Netflix service)
- Install Netflix.apk from market (Link in post 1, old Netflix apps that have been floating around didn't work for me, just this one).
Restart phone and try it out! That did it for me, hope it helps on other roms. Good luck!
Props to poster of LG Revolution drmprovide.apk to the guys at htchd2forum, OP of this thread for Netflix.apk, my idea on the build.prop model.

Heh if only we could get a kernel. Sadly there will not be one until sammy releases an offical GB which I hear could be happening beginning next year. When it comes to placing blame its not so much Samsung at fault here. I mean there seems to be a new leak at least once a week here so its not like they aren't working on it. If fault should be placed anywhere its with Tmobile who pretty much doesn't give a fck if you have GB on your phone. They've pretty much taken the, if its not broke don't update it approach.
Well at least he didn't swear at the devs this time.

Thats what I've been wondering actually.
I've only had an android since like march, rooted it within a couple months just so I could delete bloatware, but only really got into flashing and stuff about a month ago. So what's so great about miui that everyone keeps bringing it up? Surely it can't really be any better than whats already available to us.
@scoop_dtx, @95Z28
AFAIK its a ROM that gets official with the MIUI people and receives OTA updates each times a new version is available. Just like CM7. I think.

Yeah, supposedly, it's on par with CM7 now.
As someone who has been running MIUI since April, there are many advantages to using MIUI over other AOSP ROM's.
First, I love the fact that it gets updated weekly. Having to flash nightlies like with CM7 can be a hassle. Once a week works perfect for me and they are constantly making it better and the user interface just works.
Second, look @ this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990233 There are a few thousand posts to look through to see how you can customize MIUI. You can literally customize every single aspect of the ROM to your liking and I wouldn't want to have my phone any other way.
MIUI has been my daily driver for the better part of the last year and I don't plan on looking back unless something else truly mindblowing comes along.

Sony PlayStation Mobile - Soon Release

So Sony is releasing an app called PlayStation Mobile. It is currently available on Sony's website HERE for download. It will soon be officially released for the HTC One family (X and S mentioned for sure) soon. Our device (the whole HTC One lineup) (and other select few Android devices) is going to be officially supported meaning we will be "PlayStation Certified" (Sony's words).

Don't understand this post. It's already live. Install the apk and enjoy. Am i missing something.
Read the articles... Sony is working with HTC to make the One series 'PlayStation Certified'. That's the main deal of this thread.
The idea is: does this mean anything or is it just **** Sony is introducing to get more cash? Or are these games actually console-like quality or just mobile rip-offs.

Unofficial CM11 question

I saw a couple weeks ago Scott released it. I've had my eye on it for awhile and just have one question
Is it good to use it as a daily driver yet? Thanks in advance!
I would say so...I've been using it as a daily driver for about 3 days and it's all right so far. You can always just revert if you don't like it.

Do so! It is amazingly smooth, and, although for now it lacks some features we are
used to it is only a matter of time until those incredible developers are able to incorporate
them. For now third party apps do a decent job. :good:
its more lacking cyanogenmod features than anything real hardware issues. its very aosp-y with only a few cm enhancements.
What do you mean?

where you expect to see options to customize the quick settings toggles, and lock screen, and stuff, its all missing. you still have things like the theme engine, and profiles, and quick replies on text messages. its half cyanogenmod and half aosp.

What's wrong? it works.
Scott has taken a good path, solidifying the basics before adding the perks. Nothing like a good foundation, and 4.4 is doing more for our old Infuses, even in its current WIP, than any version of Android since Gingerbread.
My only issue is the rom isn't letting me restore my texts from super backup soon as i get that working i'm using kk as a daily driver
Battery life seems to be better than 4.3. I see lots claiming massive battery time increases, which has me curious how many people leave things like gmail sync,Google now, etc running all the time.
very sleek and fast interface, and battery life :good:

nearly all sms backup apps arent working because of the way sms app handling is done in kitkat. the backup app has to become the default messaging app. i think only sms backup & restore supports this right now, so give that a try. works great for me.
you can install it to your phone here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore

yeah i had a chat in irc with someone about it. im convinced the opensource browser was never meant to run on kitkat since its broken on almost every device. and the nexus devices, which are the only ones with official kitkat, come with chrome installed which works fine in kitkat. just a theory... google...
