Finally we will be able to share in the love.

oh ive been waiting since i got the phone.
One thing i hope doesnt happen. I had pandora on a winmo device and sound quality was horrible i hope thats not the case for us now.

I hope it comes soon. Just googled pandora,tried it,and now I love it. Does have a .jar of of a mobile version already out? I'd like to see if I can get that to work while i wait.

I think it does. youll have to do a seach on it though.

I tried using the J2me converter in the market but this are my results on this thread. I have the JAR hosted if someone wants to give it a shot.

Hopefully it will stream ok on EDGE. Im excited about this one!!!!

Open the box now!1!
Oh yummy. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve, can't wait to open pandora's box. One app I've been dying to get my hands on since I got a G1. Hack away at that jarfile.

Tell me why I should use this over Last.Fm
I have been using last.fm for a few years now, its the single best thing about XBMC. What does pandora do that last.fm does not?
Last.Fm bitrate is very clear and stable, android players take a bit to buffer but this is related to hardware not software. It has just about EVERYTHING I have ever searched for and I have searched for some little known punkrock bands.

The thing I hate about pandora on my friends iphone is the damn skip limit. When I showed him last.fm he was amazed I could skip tracks forever.

So what your saying is.... There is no reason to be excited at all. Unless you have never used last.fm that is.

If there's a skip limit I'll stick with last.fm, that's a deal killer so no thanks to this and eyemeem

don't overlook the most important aspect of Pandora...
The Music Genome Project, an ambitious attempt at mapping the things that have influenced the artists we all listen to. I've been exposed to great music I likely would not have heard had it not been for The MGP.

atleast last.fm works in the uk, just tried pandora website now and it says no longer available outside the US

Anyone played reckless racing

Reckless Racing for Android
Love this game
http://androidapproved.com/item/reckless-racing-for-android/

Looks good. I'ma check it out.

finally, an impressive looking racing game, I might pick this up

Yeah mulitplayer mode is the best...

By far one of the best examples of great graphics and physics, mostly physics. It is somewhat challenging to control but once you get the hang of it, it becomes easier.

Why can I not find this in the app store? Im dying for a good racing game.

It got pulled due to their servers being overloaded. It should be back up eventually.
This is the only game that I've seen that is truly impressive. The graphics are amazing for a mobile game (wouldn't look out of place as an xbox live arcade title). The default controls (auto accelerate with left, right and brake) are perfect. If this game came out on PC I'd play it.

I'd love to try it out, but it's not in the Market. When I found a QR code for it, I just got a "file not found" message. I even tried using Market Access. I'm willing to pay for it, but its lack of availability through mainstream channels may force me to look for it elsewhere.

If you do and you like it, please buy it when it comes back on the market. I want games like this to succeed so we get more quality games in future.

Awesome. Sucks it got pulled but I will definitely keep my eye out for it.
Sent from my Captivate

Is anyone else having problems getting online with this game?

Yup. I wasn't able to get into a server all weekend.
Single players still fun though. Great game.
Reminds me of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noDi1IzuotM
Found an update on the server issue: http://www.polarbit.com/2010/10/update-reckless-racing/

I hope the gameplay makes up for what Polarbit as a company lacks in class and professionalism. They posted a picture of Johnny Cash giving the middle finger on their website because people are running pirated copies. Maybe if they didn't take it off the market... I'm sure people would pay for it if they actually could. On top of that, they're basically blaming their overloaded servers on the number of pirated copies floating around, which is a bull**** cop out.

It's back on the market. Just got it.

Actually, I did find one through other means, but liked the game enough that I bought it today, since I was finally able to do so. Who's to say if other people are as reputable as I. I would bet that server outage cost them a lot of sales.

I just flat out bought it because of the 24hr return policy but this game is worth it.

Bought it... haven't had much opportunity to play it yet but the minute or so I tried it looks really good.

just bought this game and it's pretty awesome with nice graphics.

share your experiances with the nc

i was mislead so im gonna go back and double check at BB to see if what i remember is right or my mind played a trick on me
share your experiances you have had

I rooted mine two hours after buying it, and it's slowly replacing my laptop for web surfing, last.FM, etc
I've wiped mine a few times due to issues i've created tinkering with it....but I love it just the same
Sent from my Nook Color using Tapatalk

As soon as I can get RDP or VNC to work it will replace my laptop when I'm on the move. It is very capable for a tablet.

i just wish it had 3g not every place has free wifi

I used mine about 2 hours total to make sure it was working, then I updated it to 1.0.1, Auto-Nooted it, and have been installing apps and playing with it since. Not a single problem so far except for one which hopefully will get resolved sometime.. I really love my Delicious Bookmarks app, but it requires going into the Accounts and Settings and adding an account, can't do that right now.
I haven't tried the B&N Store or Lend Me since rooting, per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=873975 <--this thread
Otherwise zero problems, it's working great. I'm using FBReader to read my epubs like I always have. The Softkeys are slightly quirky but I'm getting used to them... and like seems to be totally normal on dual-storage devices, some apps aren't looking in the place I'd expect them to, such as WallSwitch (automatically switch wallpapers) is looking in /system/media and not /sdcard or such like I'd expect it to.. I might wind up pushing my pictures there /system has 160M free, no biggie
EDIT: After running the built-in B&N Gallery app, it seems like it spawned a media search and WallSwitch now shows my Backgrounds folder. Yay.

I have had a very good experience with mine so far- problems, glitches, I have minorly screwed it up a few times.
So far I have not screwed it up totally but I will feel much better when we have a full Recovery.
What I like:
The hardware itself, quality and capability seems quite good. Screen is excellent, especially for such a cheap device. WiFi works well- better signal strength than some expensive laptops I have used.
The mod community for rooting and doing so much excellent work already, and hopefully even greater things to come.
What I don't like:
The crippled version of 2.1 B&N has installed.
The lack of GPS and Bluetooth
the lack of portrait mode in B&Ns included software (eReader and many other sections.)
I knew there were many limitations for the stock NC when I ordered mine so I really am not complaining. I don't even mind the lack of cell service since it is pretty easy to connect to an adhoc wifi tether.
The only reason I considered an NC is because they had been rooted a few days before I ordered.
The whole experience is very familiar to me- I first got a Moto Droid shortly after they were first rooted and spent quite a while happily trying many things - and using recovery often.
It is my fervent hope that the devs are as successful with the NC as they were with the original Droid.
Even as the NC is as I type this it is a very good value and tablet.
If we are lucky, it will be a great one soon.

I bought mine solely for the purpose of reading with the added bonus of web surfing and the occasional movie while on the go. I got mine in November before the root and didn't realize there wasn't flash support until I got it home and started playing, went to youtube and got the crummy "mobile" version where the video looked horrible and audio was out of sync. I stumbled across XDA while looking for some kind of a flash hack and rooted after a week of debating whether I should. I'm glad I did.
Thanks to the root, the NC has gone from mundane to a very worth-while device. I love all the stuff I can do thanks to the app support. The youtube app and Dolphin HD alone make it worth rooting.

I was saying in another thread that I had gotten the NC primarily as a reading device, I love periodicals and the NC is pretty good for those. I was on the fence about getting it for a while, the fact that it could be rooted sealed the deal.
I wound up having to exchange my first NC (thankfully the factory reset went very smoothly) due to serious screen flicker issues when the device was set at a mid-level brightness. My second one is much better, though I can still detect a tiny bit of visual flicker under certain lighting conditions.. not a deal-breaker tho.
Couple issues that I've come across :
1. I screwed up the driver install on my PC the first time I tried it, didn't have the INI file in the right place and couldn't side-load anything on to my NC or access it as a storage device. Totally my fault for botching that one. Second try worked fine.
2. My YouTube app no longer launches, it just flicks on for a sec and goes back to the desktop. Probably need to re-install it.
3. Some memory issues when using ACV (comic viewer) to view CBR files. Frequent issues loading pages from the archive files. No issues at all if I extract the images to folders first and load that way, though so it's all good for my comic reading
4. Some apps that I wanted to download like SwitchPro Widgets don't show up in the market for me. Have to side-load them (which stinks since I paid for it and won't be able to get updates directly from the market).
I haven't had the stones to attempt installing the new market app. The old one works well and I'm not a big risk-taker Other than that, the NC is the little tablet that could! It's a fantastic way to get an Android tablet and very capable e-reading device for an extremely reasonable price.

We have 2 of these at home. It has already replaced my laptop at home, Using it mainly for web surfing and reading. I don't mind too much that it does not have 3g since I use my phone to tether when I am on the go. The screen size is just perfect. I just can't see myself trying to carry around anything larger, I love the portability of this thing. I don't know what Steve Jobs meant by saying that people don't want 7" tablets
The rooting process was simple enough and the only problems I had was youtube not working. I did a command in adb that was posted in another thread for the fix. I don't know about the problems with the lend me feature since I have not tried.
I went to my local best buy and barnes and noble yesterday and they are all sold out of the nook color. The nook color seems successful only being launched a month ago, I would not hesitate in getting one. I am very pleased also with the support that it is getting here on XDA.
My wife's NC is still stock but after I showed her what it can do rooted she is thinking about it. It was her idea in the first place to get these things. I was really looking to get a Galaxy Tab but the NC has satisfied my needs @ only $250. I guess I will spend the money I saved on a new Android phone after CES

What he meant was that he doesn't want to sell one, therefore nobody should use them.
And remember, you are talking about the guy who tells people how they are supposed to hold their phones.

I bought one last night fort my wife.rooted it right away and toyed around with for a little bit before bed..
What directory do downloaded files from the internet go to? my evo downloads go to a download folder on sd card but I couldnt find it on the NC. Bash me if you must but give me an answer. TIA

I picked mine up on Black Friday. Had to do some sweet talking... the ones in the store were spoken for already. Well, needless to say I got it, and it's saved my shoulders. Using my 15.6 inch laptop during the 40 min train commute was nice and all but hauling it from car to train, train to office and vice versa wasn't exactly ideal. I'm not a small guy or anything, but HP sure doesn't make things light
So far my NC has been a very worthy companion. It's gotten plenty of looks, comments, oooohhhhs and aaaahhhhhs after I show them Angry Birds and other things. I tether it to my TP2 and I've got internet. I use it in the coffee shops, during lunch to read, at home for a quick browse, at work as a file transfer medium, all in all it has become an indispensable companion. And that's even without BT and Flash. It would be nice if it had a GPS but quite irrelevant really... my TP2 covers that function very nicely. Nedless to say I'm extremely happy with it. One of the best purchases I ever made!

It's great and very encouraging to read all these positive comments about the NC. I have been lurking here since soon after the NC came out and was very happy to hear when it got rooted.
So far I have only played with a stock version in BB, but I'm about 99% sure there is one wrapped and already under the xmas free for me. Thx wifey! Can't wait to officially join the NC group on Xmas day.

Your wife will regret the purchase when your attention span is completely on the NC and not her, lol...
Its a sweet device that will only get better form here on out. Once bluetooth, nav, and a nice EQ music app (like powerAmp) are up and running, this device can become a phone companion (for roaming wifi), nettop replacement, and even a capable a carputer - nav, OBD2 reader/code clear app, and audio source (bt calls and music).

How will peripherals be connected? Does the hardware support USB to go, or do you think there is a BT chip onboard but inactive? Because that would be sweet!

To be fair, the BT **SHOULD** be there, based on the listed specs, but custom hardware for things like this is not uncommon, so i won't dream about BT until we really get it.

I predict that in 2011 Jobs will announce a new breakthrough in Apple engineering, and will release a 7" tablet. At that time he will also rename the two tablets; MINiPAD and MAXiPAD... I'm just sayin'...

Oh you mean the nanopad... I have that already trademarked... Jobs, we know you're lurkin.. Call me up to negotiate leasing rights.
On that note B&N should let XDA release NC2... Nothing but free droid books loaded upon purchase.

Picked mine up last night and the root process went very well. Couldn't be easier -- thanks to all the hard work by the guys here and at NookDev.
I picked up a Galaxy Tab but returned it before I opened it. I just couldn't justify $600 for that device so, while the Tab has a few more features (2.2, GPS, etc.) this is an awesome little tablet for the money.
Couldn't be happier.

[Q] Spectral Souls

Has anyone tried downloading this and running it on their Gtabs? just checked today and they had a new update that allows for tegra 2 support. I've had my eye on this game for quite some time but was reluctant due to the lack of tegra 2 support and the small disclaimer/known issue in the description that said "could not work & crash on 'uncertified' Google Android devices like Archos Tablet, Nook, etc".
So before i go psycho on my wallet and spend +/- 15 usd on this thing, I need someone who owns a Gtab, and was brave enough to buy this game, to confirm compatibility and if so, list down known issues based on experience. Thanks again xda peeps!

i must be getting rusty w/ my searching skills but so far the only threads i've seen about the game are for non tegra 2 devices (NC, Dell Streak, phones, etc) so really somewhat of an "apples and oranges" type of comparison. anyway just checking if anyone who owns the Gtab specifically have tried this game out lately... but no rush (considering that the update was just rolled out less than 24 hrs ago). eagerly awaiting for some first-hand insights!

Just noticed it this morning too. Good chance that I will try it this evening. I honestly don't see why it would crash on the nook though. If all else fails, I still have my Captivate to play it on. It did look nice on the g-tab when I watched it on youtube. I can say this, if your a fan of classic rpgs the sound track alone will blow you away, at least all of what I heard.

I took the $15.00 plunge this morning. The game has a 1 GB download for game data, so you're going to go well beyond the 15 minute refund limit. On the other hand, you gotta love any program that simulates Pong while the download is being counted down.
Once the download is complete, I'll let you know. Looks like it's gonna' take a couple of hours as I'm running this off a EVO hotspot.

looking forward to your impressions of the game -especially those very noticeable pros and cons! i've been a long standing fan of classic JSRPG's ever since i first played final fantasy tactics a long while back and have been left hooked ever since (even enjoyed 2D JSRPG's with mediocre-to-crappy graphics)

The download continues...and Pong is suddenly less fun to watch than it was in my youth. About 1/3 of the way home....

Winner!
Download is done....and Pong now totally sucks. Anyway, bottom line is.....it works. While I haven't had a chance to go too far into the the game, I can tell you that the soundtrack and graphics are both top notch! Is it worth $15.00? Yes.....yes it is if you're into this kind of game.
If you were waiting to buy this but were worried about it running on the GTab, I say go for it. Mind you, I'm on Vegan 5.1.1 so I can't talk about any other ROM.

Thanks for taking the plunge. I had been reading the market reviews to see if a gtablet owner was satisfied. Its way easier to toss 15 bones into the aether knowing your getting something from it.

Netflix pissing me off. Nintendo 3DS, sure. Xoom? Nope

Netflix now has an app for the Nintendo 3DS, yet we can't get one for these Tetra 2 powerhouses. Hell, it works on my Nook!
Its really annoying. I cancelled my account.
If you have an account, please call and ask about it. The more people complain, the more likely they are to make the fix.
Ill restart my subscription if they get it going, but for now, Netflix has lost a customer.
Has anyone heard if/when they are going to step up?
I have to admit that I am surprised that nvidia isn't screaming at them.

i just got my own account the other day, i've been piggybacking off of others for like a year and a half. I can't wait to have it on my xoom so I can just plug it into my living room TV instead of lugging one of my consoles out there, but I can wait.

I couldnt help but to laugh when I first saw a youtube video on 3Ds...I mean it was a big slap in the face to all xoom users.

youtube video?

yeah, we get it, netflix is on the 3ds. this WAS announced from the start you know.

And its not like the doesn't work on the zoom, they just disabled the streaming portion. It took them almost a year after the HTC evolution came to even release an android client, no telling how long for a tablet version.

Yeah no kidding Netflix should be a given on such power full tablets I just don't get it
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App

Haha I do have Netflix on my 3DS right now!
But for my Xoom, nah not possible yet, I hear ya OP. But the 3DS is Nintendo. The Wii is one of the consoles that Netflix fully supports, and if you look at the 3DS version, it's basically the same app ported over from the Wii to the smaller portable 3DS screen.
Nintendo and Netflix have a console+steaming service relationship. They will always officially support each other, no matter what. This is not the case with Android. Not fully and completely supported, not just yet anyways.
We will see full Android support for Netflix in due time. Maybe when Ice cream sandwich makes its debut, who knows. All new tablets and phones will run the same exact OS, making it pretty easy to fully support all devices without a problem. That's what I believe they are looking to do. Makes perfect sense.

The is one of the worst consoles ever. My kids wont even play it, thed rather play angry birds on my phone/tablet. Just email netflix ever day about the xoom...bug the crap out of them

That would be nice, if they listed an email address or had a form to submit. Their customer service contact page only shows a phone number. But, I did just call and had a refreshingly frank discussion with the rep who answered my call. He said they were actively working on it and the issue was related to meeting studios' requirements for DRM in Honeycomb tablets. He was aware of the discussions here and on the other Xoom forum and he even said that some users had been able to change settings to make it work (he wasn't specific, but I presume he meant the build.prop device ID or something like that). I'm still running stock, so I told him this wasn't an option but I thanked him for his candor. He said it was definitely in development, but was unable to provide a timeframe.
I have to admit that his knowledge of the issue and his apparent honesty have me satisfied for the moment and willing to wait a while longer.

This whole thing with neflix cracked me up. I always thought their streaming selection was pretty weak, I only wanted the dvd's as the last rental place in my town went out of business. So I dropped the streaming part, kept the dvd's and saved $2 bucks. To add to that, I always end up using www.crackle.com as it's free and has lots of good movies and shows. It'll also work on the Xoom browser and on my ps3. Netflix screwed up, greedy company is greedy!

Crackle looks interesting but I can't use it without an almost immediate FC on my stock browser. And keeping a pc running at home while I travel, just so I can run a third party streamer, seems unnecessary. I, for 1, am willing to wait a bit longer... (at least until I find something better)

Leaving a desktop on all day uses about $2 in electricity per month, lol

Playon has to be the biggest piece of crap, you can't even rewind with that or skip forward while playing Netflix, also if viewing Netflix thru playon it wont remember your position if you stop and resume later, splashtop is way better. I've paid for playon for a whole year and am so upset with their product
