Hey guys, didn't know if anyone has seen this yet but Winamp just released an app that's pretty nice. It even has a Lock Screen app and Wi-fi syncing to your pc. I think it is still considered beta but it seems pretty polished so far.

Here's a blog with some good info and screenshots too:

I installed it and works great except the wifi sync. I cannot get the Desktop Winamp beta to discover it. I am using the Winamp 5.59 beta which is required. But under devices, I click "Start Discovery" and absolutely nothing happens. Like it is not even trying to discover. And I do have WiFi sync enabled in the phone. Allshare works to connect to my PC so I know the connection can work.
Anyone else tried this with Captivate? Does it work for you? Any tips to make the Wifi sync work?
I got wifi sync to work but it has some serious issues regarding duplicating songs, etc

haven't tried the wifi sync but this music app is the shiz!! was using Doubletwist before..not anymore!
love the interface. able to create playlists with ease and the notification bar-like pulldown screen is genius
I can't see my music by Artist/Song with Winamp, but i can with Search option.. I've synced with Windows Media Player..

I would be happy just getting it to connect USB or WiFi but no go. Did you do anything special to get the connection to work?
For those with WiFi issues, are you sure you have the proper ports open in your firewall? (Just a guess, but that's typically the reason people have trouble connecting to their PC's on networked devices)
The app is quite nice so far, I like the lock screen widget and the launcher widget is nice as well, it has a good look to it and the style almost fits in perfectly with the Launcher Pro widgets.
So far, so good!
Copy to SD card
Anyone figured out how to set the Winamp default to copy music to the SD card? Right now it just dumps the files into the root directory. I checked the Winamp forums and some seemed to suggest there was a way to do this in the Winamp settings. I tried, but couldn't find the option the fix mentioned. I'm wondering if the whole sdcard/sd set up Samsung did on the Captivate will cause problems with Winamp finding the actual sd card?

I can't even connect via USB. I started a thread at WinAmp Forums. Many people with same issue:

Post there if you are having issues so the developers can see it.
One annoyance for me is the auto mounting feature present(mistakenly blamed dg's latest Cognition ROM because of it). I suppose it's a nice feature if one mainly sync music most of the time.

You can turn this feature off in the options (in fact if you look at the settings in Winamp, it's the first option)
I just want to be able to make a play-list on my computer then transfer all the songs PLUS the play-list to my phone. Is there any way to do this?

Knew that lol(did it after finding it was on), but thanks for the advice though.
that winamp app is pretty sweet, I like it.
I installed honeycomb last night but its quite empty, no apps? I installed it mainly for the "Books" app that I saw on Xoom hands-on videos. Where do I get it from?
Many thanks

I don't know that the Books app is publicly available yet. You can however install market and get plenty of apps (although some may not work on HC yet).
Just got my Nook Honeycomb'd w/ v3.0. This is going to be very fun!! ADB'ing my way to the Market now.
I believe you will want to install v3 of bluedeeper's honeycomb image or you will be missing a ton of apps from the marketplace. Not sure if this was fixed with v2 or not. I guess it recognizes the nook as a Nexus device or something and allows you to download more apps.
hey all, i have another question about apps in honeycomb. I am using the 2GB honeybunches version that comes with market preinstalled. All the apps seem to be there as far as i can tell. but whenever i go to download an app it starts downloading and then quits without downloading the app. i keep pressing yes to install but it keeps doing the same thing. Any thoughts?

Try opening market from the market widget and if that doesn't work, clear cache and data and force close the Google services framework and the market. Also a couple of revolts and retries got it working for me.
Also, make sure you are using v2.

Did a reboot and apps are now downloading and installing from market! Thanks for the help!
I'm not talking about the market, but rather this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGP3KKbDOKc "Books" app.
The HC on the NC right now is a "SDK Preview". It doesn't contain any of the apps that you might have seen Google demonstrate on devices like the G-Slate / XOOM Tablet. For now, you'll just have to wait until the XOOM is released, a system dump is performed and the APKs are liberated / ported from that dump. The only way it might happen any faster is a pre-release ROM leak. Even then, the release HC AOSP might be needed for one reason or another before they'll install or fully function. Renderscript for example (the new HC feature required for much what you've seen in the videos) probably won't work right away.
1) Genie (news/meteo) widget is broken. I remove the widget but, when I try to reinstall it, "genie" process suddenly ends.
RESOLVED: clear data from Application Settings Menu and then re-apply the widget.

Same issue with Meridian Pro player, the widget would make it crash.
Deleting the widget, clearing application data, then re-adding the widget fix it.
Note that clearing the application data makes it forget your unlock code for the pro version. Make sure you have a copy of your code before clearing the data.
I miss the Froyo keyboard, i loved to just swipe my finger up and get another pair of lines with symbols, WHY WAS THIS REMOVED!!!

Annoying amazon mp3 app is still there!
Can't access to Google Voice app (no more icon). The application appears as installed in the market. Can't open / uninstall from the list of applications (appears in grey in all apps list).
Anyone have the Trillian 1.0.145? (final beta before it went to market)
Seems to be the only app not working for me, never completes log in.
Not really an issue, but I.was so much hoping for copy/paste to work in gtalk but I still can't copy in gtalk.

I always chuckle when people say they avoid CM7 and other ROMs because they want to "avoid bugs".
Irony at its finest?
Don't know if anyone will care, but if you spam tap "Android version 2.3.3" you will see this image:

Do you really need to keep evangelizing CM? This is XDA, we know about CM7. If we wanted to be running it we would be already.
When you go to the USB storage connection screen the button seems to say "Turn off USB storage" no matter whether it's already on or not.

Yeah, me too.
Just close the Market and then re-open and you're back at the new one. You may need to kill Market in app management, or just wait a couple of minutes to go back in.
I'm having the umts hsdpa switch issue. It switches back and forth every few seconds, and I have strong signal. Anyone seeing this?
I went to download this app from market and discovered it was not compatible with the gtab. I then searched and found the download from another source which I side loaded and played - no problems. Now, it is telling me that there is a update to the app. It now takes me back to market for the update but, of course, I can't download the app because it is not compatible with the gtab. Any suggestions to get around this glitch??
I have the same problem and have been trying to figure out a solution but no luck so far. It is my favorite app and the reason I am so upset with the new market. I have tried going to the old market with no luck even if I disable the updater.

I've had this problem with other apps... What I have done is download the update app on my phone then back the app up with titanium, app manager, ect... and then just side load the app again... Normally ill just upload the app to my dropbox and download on my tablet.
Hope that helps a little.

If this is the game from Zynga, I can download it from Market.
Try changing the ro.product.device to
ro.product.device=olympus

Hey everyone,
Good old fashioned noob question here. Got my Nexus 7 and love it, but EA apparently hasn't released a version of Scrabble for it yet, as the play store say it's not compatible with my device. Guess I'd like to give it a shot installing it anyway and see how bad or good it is. This is possible, right? If so, how does one go about doing this?
Thanks
the best answer would be 'maybe'.
Yes it should install, but no it might not run

But how do you get it to install? App store doesn't allow you to download it.
thinking the same... wouldnt mind installing viber but the market says its not compatible with device...
Download the app to your phone, go into data/app, find the app then either move it to the sdcard then transfer it to your N7. A quicker way (if you have an online storage app) is to long press on the app in data/app, select "send", then send it to your online storage then download it to your N7. I use my Box account for this all the time.
Also make sure you check the setting to "allow installation of non-market apps"

Exactly what I've been doing
Easy way once you have downloaded it on your computer is to put it in your dropbox, open dropbox on your tablet, and install.
I used MyAppSharer to save the .apk from my Kindle Fire into my Google Drive and it sideloaded fine on my Nexus 7. It runs fine, but it doesn't use up all of the screen. Haven't tried the phone version yet, so if you do, let me know how it goes.
Most work fine. Some don't.

... and some, like the ASUS Weather Widget work- but you can't save your settings (like wanting the temperature to display in F rather than C) because the "Save" button is off the screen on the N7
I've done it with iReader and it works fine.
DARN! I did it, and it works, but it's tiny. Takes up like 1/5 of the screen. I bet the kindle fire version would be better than the phone version.
Well, thanks for the help everyone! Hey EA...if you're reading this, stop being so lazy and just release a version compatible with the Nexus 7!
