Hi all,
I bought a Point of View (POV) Mobii7 Gen2 some days ago and it appears to work really well, especially for its price (129 euros). Everything works quite smooth and games run quite well. However, there is no update to Android 2.2/2.3 and the credential storage appears to be unavailable (no such menu item?!), which means I can not connect to the WiFi of my university network. Does anybody know:
(a) if there is a similar device so I can use the firmware of that one?
(b) how I can enable or install the credential storage in Android so I can connect to PEAP networks? Think this is a major flaw in the firmware!
Thanks!!
Hi,
Did you found a solution, i have the same question and i am looking for a custom rom for this device.
Regards Rees1267
Nope, not yet...
Ok, maybe later ....?
By the way, i'm using a alternative market, called Applanet and this market wil download very wel and the apps installed fine...
Google it and install it from youre sd card...
When you know a custom rom for this device, please tell me.
Rees
I have the same tablet as you guys i think, i was wondering, is there a way to get the Android Market on these tablets?
I did struggle quite a lot to install the market, but so far no luck. I actually DO have the market installed, but all downloads fail due to missing components. The trick is to install the vending.apk (i'm at work atm so can't post it), but it will not download, I think it is caused by the Google Framework which is missing. What DOES work is the Applanet market. Also copying APK's from a rooted phone does work if you need a certain app which isn't on the AndroidPIT and Applanet market.
One other thing: next week new firmware will be released for this device improving performance and fixing bugs. I hope this firmware does include the google framework, enabling market installation.
Please also post your experience and achievements on installing the market and other improvements/interesting things. Starting to like the device though: watching videos, playing MP3s and e-reading works well. Replacement of the launcher is recommended, I prefer Launcher Pro
mobii gen2 and youtube
I get it before few days, i still not able to have youtube on.
Did someone have made it? And if is from what market is dowloadable?
Thanks
You can install the Youtube app, its working on mine Mobii V2....
I heard from pov, they have a release update this week!!!

new update
I tried new official upgrade last night and all is running fine, i think litlebit faster. And now its inside new android market. I was hoping that will be a new version of android 2.2 but its still 2.1.
Is the Market the official Google Market?
Is the trackball still working? Someone in Holland reported that the trackball didn't work after the firmware upgrade.
Pov just posted a new link for trackball users!
I did the trackball version upgrade. You must download also the other file. The trackball zip doesn't include the upgradetool! There are no extra apps nor Google
The market is still androidpit
I am disapointed with new update. My mobii have not trackball, inside is home, option And back button. after upgrade now they always on with green led in suspend mode. Batery fast running out. Sometimes its not possible to switch on And only reset help. I search way to make downgrade.

same here, exept vor battery life. listening to web radio, surfing and a little e-book reading gives me at least 5h... haven#t drained it to limit though.
how long does the battery last on your mobii?
btw: i have the nontrackball tab
Guys, I'm happy today!! I managed to get the Android Market working on the Mobii 7. Here is what I did:
- Download the image file from http://www.slatedroid.com/index.php?topic=14498.0
- Update your Mobii 7 Gen2 with this image, choose NOT to update the boot image.
- Start the Market, enter your settings.
- Do a test download (even if it fails).
- Follow these instructions: http://www.technipages.com/android-market-download-unsuccessful-error-fix.html
- Install the new market APK from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TON34WSX
- Do not be tempted to test the Market now;
- Reboot your device
- Market is working!

Is there any point to install and play with cyanogenmod 9 if I'm noob?
I have HTC DESIRE S
I have rooted flashed so far by cgm 7.2 and I don't have problem really.
I know how to use google.
That's why I don't post questions about my device and set up, they are answers sooner, than my question arise. Google and forums are working well for me.
Is there any good to use semifunctional device for benefitial purposes? For example cgm9 for saga, the last nightly build, wifi is not working. If I'm noob?
How to report? Does it help really? It's not about complaining... I'm happy with stable releases and google. I'm not looking for learning coding. I "use" and if bug I do google search... Seems like cgm9 where functionality changes from build to build, there is no point to complain... of course... So does help to say if something doesn't work and where to do it? is there place to do that?
Do I have to make 9 other questions like this to tell that cyanogenmod 9 last nightly build for desire s has nonfunctional wifi? To be able to report it in developers threads? Is that helpful information? Can be noob helpful?
EDIT: wifi is not malfunctional, the etntire trouble is ICS android not being supported for connecting to ad-hoc acces points(hotspots). Infrastructure mode apparently available for set up under windows 7 (not xp) should let you use your computer as hotspot for ICS androids

I don't have this device, but if it doesn't work, CM knows about it. Are you sure it doesn't require a different kernel for wifi to work? Did you read the entire thread? I know sometimes in forums it says not to ask about certain things... Nightlies aren't a finished product. They are tests builds. Some better than others... I myself LOVE CM9 Nightlies!! If it's not what you want, just flash another rom.

For those of you who may have tried to connect your recently updated ICS Transformer Prime to your cell phone using the wifi tether app, you may have noticed that your tablet would not pick of the signal from your phone. We are running an ATT Samsung Galaxy SII here and had wifi tether 3.1 beta 6 installed from a few months back. Before upgrading to ICS on our Prime, we had successfully tethered Honeycomb 3.2.1 to the phone without a problem at all. After the upgrade to ICS we wanted to test some of the wireless connectivity issues and decided to tether to our phone once again to get Speedtest results and noticed that we couldn’t see the phone’s hotspot.
In launching the trusty wifi analyzer app, we noticed that the tablet was “seeing” the hotspot in the wifi analyzer app, however, there was a little red designation at the end of the hotspot information denoting “ad hoc” and we were not able to connect or even given the option to connect to the hotspot. In doing some reading on this and finding that in other forums there were many other users saying that after upgrading to ICS they were no longer able to connect to their hotspot, we assumed this was definitely something with ICS. Officially, Google does not support ad hoc networks in ICS apparently.
However, the upside to all of this is that if you upgrade your wifi tether app to the latest and greatest, which in our case was 3.1 beta 11, we were able to select the option in the wifi profile to be the infrastructure mode as opposed to ad hoc mode for our Samsung Galaxy SII. After performing the update, and changing the profile to infrastructure, we were once again able to connect our ICS Prime to the wifi tether app.
It is yet to be seen if this is functionality Google is simply not support from this point forward or if this is just an early ICS quirk that will be resolved with a later update.
maby this is the issue
Finnaly this can be solved by having windows vista in infrastructure mode... Windows xp haven't been build to provide such stacks.
I've been having some troubles with the official NFL Gamepass app on my Nexus 5. Whenever I try to watch a game or the NFL Network live stream, I get an error message saying the there is an error playing the selected video.
The app works fine on my Nexus 7 tablet with Android 4.3, on my brothers Samsung S4 Android 4.3, on all my PCs and on my old iPhone. So I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with my network. I've also tried it on 4G, which results in the same error message.
I'm in contact with NFL Gamepass support, but they haven't been really useful so far. The only thing they've suggested was rebooting the phone, reinstalling the app and wanting to know my location and public IP address.
What I wanted to ask is if anyone else with Android 4.4 KitKat could test this. I think it must have something to do with the Android version, but I can't be sure because I have no other 4.4 devices to test it on.
Same here! Working well on Nexus 7 with 4.3 but no good at all on Nexus 5 with 4.4... I guess it's a KitKat issue...

That means I won't be upgrading my Nexus 7 until this is fixed, since I use that device most when watching games.
I've had some more back and forth with the support guys and I'm pretty sure they don't have a clue what they're talking about. They asked for my location and IP address, which I thought was kind of weird. Gave it anyway and got a mail saying they "unlocked" my IP address and that it should be working now. Never mind that I already told them other devices on the same network were working fine and that I had the same issues on 3G or 4G. I also don't get a static IP from my ISP, so I don't know what they're talking about.
I asked for more help, we'll see how it turns out.

It's KitKat (4.4). NFL Game Pass doesn't work on it, expect an update 1st week of Dec. :fingers-crossed:

Alright, let's hope they fix this soon.
My Nexus got udated yesterday to Kitkat as well and I got the same problem - cannot play any video from NFL Game Pass right now....anyone got an official response on this?
Regardless, good thing is that there is still workaround possible. I'm still able to see any videos from NFL Game Pass through XBMC. Just use one of the nightly builds that is working on Kitkat, add NFL GP addon and here you go. It's not that convenient to use as an official NFL app howeve you can still watch all the games you want and we going to have many of those tomorrow. So there is still some time left to set it up.
Hi, basically i run a taxifirm and use android devices as our taxi system. i recently bought 100 new wileyfox and kazam devices. The wileyfox spark are running android 6.0.1 and the kazam 555 are running 5.1.
The app which i use for the cars was origionally designed for devices running 4.4 or below it does work as in the fuctions work when its on the higher devices but the gps doesnt seem to pick up the location of the driver. If you go on google maps the location is correct yet on the app i use it picks up sattelites but doesnt seem to know where the drivers are. Im hoping there is someone who could help with this as the devices are non returnable so i really need to be able to use them. Im not sure if the app just needs some extra file or some kind of tweak. Hope someone can help

First of all, did yo make the app? Do you have contact with who made it? What more have you tried to fix this? Have you tried to enable high precision location for the specific app?
I didn't make the app but I have tried high accuracy, the app just doesn't pick up the active sat. Snr it just has zeroes under each active satellite. I thought it wasn't reading the map to start with but then realised it's not reading the GPS data correctly
Have you tried to change the build.prop to 4.4?

I have found a higher version which works on higher android versions, unfortunately I can't use this version as it doesn't match my system and would cost thousands to upgrade. Would anyone be able to compare the two apks and see if there is a fix. Thanks

How and where would I change the build .Prop? ?
Had a quick look at build prop, I tried changing the device build prop to 4.4 but made no difference
Just found that the new apk has a file reading libmonosgen-2.0.so that the old apk doesn't have. Tried putting it in the old apk but wouldn't install with that file in it
OK so found what I need to get, the ndrive version 11 cracked apk. Hope someone has a link to it I can't find it anywhere
Hi,
since I can't find much on the interwebs, maybe a huawei wizz can help me here.
For Christmas I imported the honor waterplay (non LTE 3GB/32GB version) (since it was fairly cheap and, well, IP67... so it can function as a ebook reader while in the bathtub/jaccuzzi) and also has a beefy battery.
The issue I have is: on huawei's website I can not unlock the bootloader, If you use EMUI 5.0 you can select tablets, but the waterplay is not recognized. If you select 5.1 (which the waterplay has) you can only select Smartphones. I contacted Huawei via Mail but 10 days running - no answer. - so is there a way to unlock it so i can flash magisk?
Second Q: Is there a working exploit to get at least root running? adb via usb is not working, on click root apps failed (as well as the windows supported ones like kingo etc.)
thirdly: does anyone know if the waterplays' hardware is similar to a lineage os version of another tablet ? (I'd love to have a L-OS on that, not only for root but some apps loaded with yalp annoy me, they work but always a popup google services are required...)
btw: the tablet is impressive for the money (260€) ereader mode it lasts days (was reading some GoT for hours), playing games is good (my nephew played 4h on christmas and it only lost 40%), overall system is responsive. it has a fingerprint reader which works ok and can be used with gestures. All it misses is a fully google supported rom. Sound with the 4 Speakers is actually good - you can even watch streams/movies without sounding too tinny.
thanks in advance for any suggestions / support
cheers
@ moderators: if this is wrong here, please move it - I did not want to hijack any honor forum for this, since there is no section for the waterplay yet. thanks
Hey Buster... im in the same position as you... love taking it in the shower so i dont miss anything.... but need a rom of some sort to open things up..... we can only hope the guys who know will give us a hand... pinky

You need to have 2 files to enable Google Play service on the Waterplay.
You need the Huawei gms services apk (com.huawei.gmsinstaller.apk Ver. 1.2.0) , and then an google play installer (com.goplaycn.googleinstall.apk Ver. 4.8.1)
Both of these can be found easily using google search.
You need to install the gms service apk first, reboot the tablet and then install the google play installer to get the playstore app on your tablet. You might need to wait a bit after the playstore is installed for the Playstore app to update itself to the correct version before selecting the app.
Once the you select the app it will ask for your google credentials and you can go from there.
