[Q] After three days HELP!!! Skype on G Tablet - G Tablet Themes and Apps

I am only looking for audio/text Skype for the gTablet. there have been a bunch of threads but no links and it is not in the marketplace. I install CM and TNT Lite 4.25. It is not in marketplace and the one in Appbrain would not load. Please help even if just sending me link in PM.
Thanks in advance.

HMM I am on 5.1 vegan and I have done the market fix, Skype shows up in the market on both vegan and tnt. Try the market fix again, you should be good to go.

Yes. I was not able to get Market to show Skype until after the fix. Works great now!

so without doing the market fix I am sunk?

Is there a problem with you doing the market fix? It is not hard. You make it sound like you don't want to do the market fix. And to answer your question... you are sunk.

Bottom of first post on this link should help you out. Give it a shot, it works for getting 95% of apps.

It's there on freewarelovers
I loaded the app and works great from freewarelovers. Search for Skype on that site and you should be able to install using the apk.
Enjoy!

Ok so took the leap and got it done ........thanks for the details

[Q] Appbrain Install?

I've performed the updates to my G Tablet as described in the superthread which are great! I've moved on to trying to install PnPlay but it's not available in what I can see in the Market. It looks like I could install it through AppBrain, but the AppBrain app is not available in what I can see in the market either. I can't find the .apk anywhere else.
Can someone please provide a suggestion for how I can install AppBrain?
Thanks!
Check out my thread on the full market fix in GTablet Android Development. I see AppBrain in my market now.

Have you done the market fix? It will show up in the market after that. Search for titanium in the market. If you don't see that either you need to do the market fix to fill it up.
Thanks for the tip. Followed instructions in this thread for Market fix and it worked like a champ.

A couple points.
1. Doing the market fix will give you a lot of apps but, depending on your ROM, you may still be missing some apps.
2. AppBrain helps you search whats on the market. However, if you cannot see a program in the market AppBrain isn't going to be able to install it.
Hey Swift. That's not necessarily true.
With AppBrain and Fast Web Installer enabled, I was able to download apps like VPlayer that didn't show up on my marketplace.

fast web refuses to install in tnt 2.2... worked in cm6b4 though. it insists that there's a device-specific compatibility error, which i've never seen before...
edit: refuses to *run* post install from the market is what i specifically mean.
Fast web installer refuses to run for me too, vegan b3

I have a Viewsonic Gtablet with the with TNT Lite 2.2.0.
When I search Android Market, I can't seem to find Pandora, Sirius/XM, Live Hold'em, and Barcode Scanner. So I think my Market place app maybe messed up. How can I fix that? Can some help me?
Thanks!

I followed the video on post #364 on page 37 of this thread everytime and it worked perfectly every time.
Just do the full market fix in development

Thanks folks...Now I am trying to clear my search cache. Anyone know how to do that?
I would use Titantium Backup, for the market fix. Works every time, for me. And I am redoing the Market fix very frequently, as you might imagine. I have several links to that Market fix - try the general FAQ, first.

[Q] Has anyone gotten the Sports Illustrated app (tablet edition) ?

I am trying to install it via the Market online and the G-tablet is not listed as being compatible with it.
Dled it last night love it runs like a charm on vegan rom
I don't see the tablet edition available...All i get is the phone version in market...
I have searched google for an apk file and no one has one. The tablet version isnt in the android market even after being fixed and the online android market doesnt support vegan so i conclude we cant get it yet
I just grabbed it from the market, and it worked fine. I did get a message that it was for the galaxy tab.
I am running VEGAn 5.1.1.

My market will only see the phone edition of the app.
Can anyone pull the tablet edition apk and post it for download?

Same here.
APK would be greatly appreciated. Really looking forward to seeing some tablet optimized apps on the gTab
I just found it in the market. I am using vegan-tab. In settings, applications...clear cache AND data for Market, then force stop. Then clear data and force stop Google Services Framework. Reboot, accept terms of services in market, and you should find it. I just did this and it worked. The key is to also clear Market data. Hope this helps!
I found it but it says my device is not compatible. I did however able if I want to download the phone version.
Does it display in landscape? Is it free or just one free issue?
It displays in portrait only, but I think the layout is great. The app is free but the subscription is not. I get the issues in the app for free because I have a print subscription, but I believe you can also pay for a digital only subscription (don't know how much that costs).
Same issues here - can't find it in the market and can't find an apk on the web. If anyone could post the apk it would be much appreciated. I have a print subscription that gets recycled every week - the landfills are crying!
Don't really feel like uploading it anywhere, but feel free to pm me your email if anyone wants it. Backed it up with astro.
+1 for not linking the apk. Last thing anyone needs (XDA included) is the ire of sports illustrated. If you take your time you can find it on teh intertubes.

-5 for Mantara for not nowing anyone can have the apk since you have to have a subscription to gain access to the content anyway!

[Q] Get appbrain on tntlite gtab

Got the gtab, got tntlite cranking, did the market fix. Not as much stuff as my Droid x sees but.... Looking at appbrainit looks like I could find the app and install right from the page but... it wants me to install appbrain first! No link to file just a tantelizing barcode that my Droid can read but not my gtab grrrr! So close! How can I get the appbrain installation onto my gtab?
oh...and to all the developers doing this amazing stuff Thanks!!!
So three...count 'em three more market fixes followed by a disturbing period of no Internet connectivity and suddenly. ..it works! Nothing different, same pattern each time but then it works. App brain appears, apps I bought for my phone appear. I sure would like to understand the mechanics of why repetition worked. So take heart fellow travelers...wipe those caches one more time.

Facebook apk

Hey guys, I was able to get VEGAn-Tab 5.1.1 on my g-tab a couple of weeks ago and everything went extremely smooth. There have only been a few problems so far, most of which have resolved themselves. As of right now, I am having problems finding apps in the market. I did the full market fix, but is it necessary to perform the market fix more than once? I can't seem to find Facebook, Shopkick (not a big deal since Shopkick is in the Amazon App Store), or a few others in the market. Does anyone have a link to the apk file so I can side load them? If so, that would be amazing. Thanks in advance!
