[Q] Nova HD - Nook Color General

Has anyone got Nova working fullscreen on the NC? I played on an iPhone a while back and it was excellent. If so, could some kind person pm me a working apk?

Version 3.4.2 works nicely on stock 1.1.
Frank

it also works on cm7.. as well as most gameloft apps.

So how do you get it to fill the entire screen. I've got Nova 3.4.2 running but its only filling a small, phone sized portion of the screen.
EDIT: I tried unchecking Compatibility Mode in Spare Parts but although the game now fills the screen it still isn't right. The menu only renders a small part of the screen and when I get in a game a bit of the top is missing.

Mind sharing exactly which games (and their version numbers) that work on CM7? For the life of me, I could not get one single game from them to work. What am I doing wrong...

In my testing against CM7.0.2, all versions of N.O.V.A. HD _except_ 3.1.3 (which force closes) and 3.5.4 (which locks up with a white screen while trying to play video) work fine on the Nook. Ironically, the icon shows up correctly only with 3.5.4 (which again does not work).

Thanks! Interesting to note that version 3.1.3 for the Galaxy Tab doesn't work as that's the one I got. Would have thought similar A8 processor would be a good thing, maybe the slight gpu difference? Gonna test out a pull from a friend's Droid, hopefully that should work in my CM7 Nook.

Can any one get turbofly 3D to work on gtab TNT 4.1? The accelerometer doesn't seem to be working?

Hi, it works great on mine. I just bought the full version tonight.
Go into the settings and switch from "Acceleormeter" to "Touchscreen" and steer by tapping on either side of the screen for left and right.
Lots of fun!
I couldn't get the accelerometer control to register at all with TNTLite 2.2 and I didn't care for the touch-screen controls. Uninstalled the game in the end.
Too bad, I really wanted to play an accelerometer game and Turbofly 3D looked pretty cool.

3d home run battle

I keep getting the error "information about your device cannot be retrieved due to unstable platform ". Then I have to hit the forceclose button. The thing is that I can see thegame running fine in the background. I don't understand this.

**edit** it also says "(According to your device, you may need to restart the application multiple.)"
What the hell is the Application Multiple??????
Hopefully someone will figure out a way to get this to work on the g tablet. It plays fine on my rooted nook color.
It even plays great on my lil Aria

Just to add to the list of confusion, another game, Live Hold'em Pro does a similar thing. It loads up, the splash scrreens work fine, but as the main screen of the game is about to comeup, I get the force close window. The funny part is how I see the game working in the background!

Homerun 3D was working perfectly before I repartitioned my drive. I have the same problem with it not working now and other games like Reckless Racing don't work either. Both worked perfectly before the repartition (2048/0)....any ideas?

Yeah it really bites...but wait til the guys here get a hold of it, they'll make it work!
Don't mean to bump an old thread but wanted to know if a solution was found
Works fine for me on calkulins Tom. I want to say that is one of the apps I restored via titanium from my Droid backup though
Cant get it to work on BC
Works fine for me on Vegan GE 7.0.0 Stable RC1.
This is just a guess, but it may have something to do with HR3D trying to get some kind of device information from build.prop on what platform it is running on.
As more background info, I had this app working fine on Vegan 7 GingerEdition, and it works fine on VeganTab 5.1.1 Froyo.
I loaded AOSP Ginger with HC elements...modified build.prop with Sprint info to get some more market apps, and then restored HR3D and I've had this same message ever since...
I just haven't had time to play around with it quite yet, but I'm guessing that replacing the build.prop might get this thing working...
I would love to be able to play vs mode with my gtablet. I am running deck's 2.3.4 for gtablet. the game runs fine just no vs mode. Someone has to know how to get it to work.

Flash 10.2 available

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/motorola-xoom-forum/6538-flash-your-xoom.html
Call me paranoid, but is there a more official place to download this. The site in the link feels sketchy. There is even a post that questions the validity of the .apk. Have you installed and is there a noticeable difference?
I'd say it's legit. Jlevy posted on there that it's legit and he is a member on xda
i Got it and installed seems to be what it says flash 10.2 tried a flash game to see and it played it was jerky tho but i don't know if it was like that before or not i didnt test the game before. youtube is flash based right? ill check that out
I thought it wasn't getting released until the 18th. I guess it got leaked or something.
I installed on Vegantab and it seems to work just fine.
tryed to play some 720p vids of youtube(website not the app) it was very jerky but 480p played fine
Works on my GTAB - doesn't seem any worse or better than 10.1 (with limited testing).
Had to uninstall flash before this would install. Works so far on VEGAn bameta 5.1.1.
Edit: after some testing it breaks hulu for me. Sticking with my altered 10.1 until something better comes along.
Vegan Ginger working but no sound. Anyone have sound?

Yeah i didn't see that post. I Google's and found the Android Police post and downloaded there. Seems to work, July still says "not supported on your platform" on Vegan 7. Dang! I still have high high hopes for the first beta release!
Just tested and works nice. Wish there was a way to test 480 on the youtube site
mcp2009
You could play videos on youtube in 480p format on G tab.
Do these steps:
1) Go into your youtube account settings, after signing in.
2) Click on "Playback Setup"
3) Checkmark the option "Always play HD when switching to fullscreen (when available)"
Now on Gtab when you watch a video just double tap it to full screen and it will automatically go to 480p.

forgot all about that thanks man. Just did on an episode of =3 and it ran perfect in 480p I love this tab
Edit: i think audio may be off a little
Sweet!
Works nicely, no noticible difference from 10.1
I don't get it though, who comes with these release dates anyway?
If it's ready to go just set it free because in the age of twitter and XDA, if someone gets thier hands on it before the release date it's going to spread like wildfire!
Agreed. It's works but no noticable difference. It still takes a minute+ to start a live video stream on ESPN3. It always feels like an eternity...
I'm running Vegan Ginger and haven't installed this yet (still have 10.1 from the market). I'm wondering if it will make a difference with this ROM until the next release when hopefully the hardware video acceleration files will be baked in to the rom?

Any pointer on how to alter 10.1 to get Hulu to work?
TIA
Remove the current Adobe flash from G Tab and install the attached version and then Hulu should work if using the Dolphin browser with useragent set to "Desktop" and run plugin "always".
10.2 works fine on my DROID INCREDIBLE too

[Q] Hulu Plus App work for anyone?

The new Hulu Plus app just came out and I've got a gTab with the following in the about tablet section:
Model: TnT G-Harmony
And 2.2
Tap UI version: TnT G-Harmony v1
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty
Build: FRF91
I've used this as my daily for a while. What do I have to do to get the tab to be seen as compatible with Netflix and Hulu Plus app? new build.prop? Thanks in advance.
Not sure if it fully works as I don't have an account to log in with...
However, it did stream the "free gallery" on my Gtablet running CM7.03.
Netflix definitely works on CM7.03.
I do not see them in the Market but they have both been posted around. For Netflix I just download it on my Droid (supported device) and transfer it over to my Gtablet. For HuluPlus, Droid-life.com has the app.
I've got the apk, but I get 'Device not supported' post install. Could you just try the install to see if your build is supported/no errors?
I'm searching for my new daily build and wondering what's best combo for flash, netflix, hulu plus now and video playback in general. Want to stick to Froyo I think until HW acceleration is better implemented on later versions. Also, I see baseline 1.2 and Caulk+Clem for best kernel. I'm not advanced but can follow the steps to drop a new rom on. What's your opinion and could you point me to a solid daily rom noting above?
Like I said.....it installed and I was able to stream the "free gallery", I just can't log in to see if it gives all/full functions of those with an account.
Running stock CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable)
It runs fine for me without any noticible issues. I didn't have to modify the build.prop or anything else; just installed it without any tricks.
I just watched an episode of The Daily Show and it ran great. The video ran much smoother than watching it via the hacked Flash file via the Hulu website so I'm thinking the video player in the Hulu Plus app plays video modified for mobile devices unlike the Hulu website.
Here is the apk. Enjoy.
Note: If you have videos in your queue that are tagged as "web only" then this Hulu Plus app will not play them. So I would recommend keeping the hacked Flash for Hulu so you can watch them via the web browser.

For Netflix I used the latest version from the Market and it works great without any build.prop mods. Same for the Hulu Plus app (see my previous post for apk). I'm running CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable) haven't tried it on my VEGAn 5.1.1 gTab yet.
It definitely works on Cyanogen 7.0.3. Got Netflix, Hulu+, & Flash on my tablet now.
If Plants vs. Zombies wouldn't lock up & it would boot up faster, I would have reached tablet nirvana.

For Hulu+, I see it in market using the mahimahi string in my build prop and the device set as olympus on a froyo rom based on calkulin 1.1. I too get device unsupported when launching.
For PvZ, you can get it working, but need froyo and this kernle: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128866

Thank you for this apk. It works flawlessly for me on Vegan GE. With the netflix fix posted earlier in the link below, and now this hulu plus app I don't ever see me needing to leave Vegan GE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15147560&postcount=13
so is there any way to get hulu+ working on froyo
hulu+ on Flashback 10.1
I've managed to get around the "device not supported" problem with hulu+ app working on flashback 10.1, but the video shows up in the bottom left hand corner with the top half of the vid cut off. I've tried setting the resolution of playback to every setting. I also tried different density settings for the display, nothing seems to be able to move the vid to the center of the screen. Anyone having the same problem? Anyone have any other ideas on how to get the video to the center of the screen? Sorry if this has been covered, did a search here and in the general questions sections, didn't see anything, I hope i didn't miss it...lol
I haven't tried it on Flashback but even if it works for you perfectly it will still limit what videos will play (only ones tagged "mobile") on it based on what agreements Hulu has with the content provider.
I stopped using the app on my gTab almost as soon as I installed it when I realized that I can play everything (tv, mobile, computer) Hulu has to offer via my browser and the hacked Flash for Hulu unlike the Hulu Plus app.
Just my two cents...

I don't think you missed anything. I've tried everything you have tried. The video doesn't move. I assumed that the app thinks this is an ASUS tablet which has a higher resolution. I tried editing build.prop but nothing has worked. Hopefully the new kernel will correct this for us. I cut off cable because of HULU and would like to have it on my tab as well. Just tired of looking at Froyo and Gingerbread.
up and running
Well i gave up on getting flashback to work right. Flashed CM7.1 and i have the hulu+ and netflix working...now onto get the hbo go and max go apps working.

shadowgun issues

Has anyone else had problems running Shadowgin on the tablet with gtacomb 3.3?
i just tried it on C+C rom, it runs but has graphic glitches. some objects and path graphics are missing, but otherwise it plays fines
Yep running flashback 10 and it wont dl game data past 25%. Same is happening on alot of HC phones/tablets. My friend is running a froyo rom on his gtab and he said it runs great.
I tried it on Flashback HC rom and it wouldnt work, i then tried it with C+C and it flows smooth except that alot of the background images are not there. I wish someone knew a fix for this. So in other words, the game is playable with C+C but alot of the graphics are missing.

I abandoned flashback and went back to mountain laurel and shadowgun runs perfectly without any glitches or missing graphics. This game is amazing! Best tegra 2 game yet! Also runs normal on brilliant corners.

Thanks for the info. i'll definetly try it on the mountain laurel rom.
Will not install past 25% on Gtabcomb 3.3. I think I've just about had it with the lack of a stable honeycomb rom on this tablet.
On Beasty and Clemsyn rom the game (version 1.0.2) can be installed without problems, but it's so f**king slow that there is no way to play to it.
I also think that some objects were missing, but I'm not sure because the gameplay was so slow that I couldn't even move around to confirm that.
Crashes on VEGAn 5.1.1
It installed fine and plays the cut scenes great but once the actual game starts and I start to move my player around and begin shooting my screen gets black for a few seconds and then the desktop appears without any of the icons/widgets on it and runs super sluggish until I reboot it. Sometimes it reboots itself but not always.
This 15 minute refund window sort of blows. Especially with games like this that you have to download additional content (250 MB for this one) that eats up that 15 minutes.
Tried it on CM7 and it crashed too. In fact, it didn't even get as far as when I ran it on VEGAn 5.1.1.
I was on gtabcomb 3.3, installation stopped after 25%, so downloaded sd data from external link but game always crashed upon loading after intro hd movie
then i tried tnt lite, game ws running fine but it had many glitches
then i installed mountain laurel, the game ran quite well and everything was perfect other than the fact that i cannot connect my external ps3 dualshock 3 to it
is there any way to connect it since the sixaxis controller app for gtablet is not able to connect my ds3 with gtablet, it was working fine with gtabcomb....
I tried it on Montain Lauren and I still have mising graphics. It sucks that even games developed for Tegra devices can' work well on our tablet.

That's what im running and I have no glitches or missing graphics. Im using the kernel that came with it. Did u put a different kernel on it? A couple times it ran choppy so I used the task manager and ended all tasks and then it ran smoothly.
im just gonna have to wait till someone updates my ROM.
Used Chainfire 3D with Plug-ins to make it work a bit
I have a gTab running VEGAn 5.1.1 and Shadowgun would crash/force-close/reboot my gTab as soon as gameplay would start. It would play fine for the cut scenes but as soon as the cut scene was finished and you were allowed to move your character around the game would quit.
I almost gave up on the game after I paid money for it but then read about this app in the Market called Chainfire 3D (there a free version and a paid version - the paid version is what I used to make this work). After I installed the free version first and then upgraded to the paid version and then installed the plug-ins (3 in all - I saved them to the root of my sdcard) and then went into the settings for it and selected Shadowgun in the list of Per-app OpenGL settings and unchecked the Use Default Settings and played around with the other settings to see if I could get this game to run. The ones I am using now are Reduce Texture Quality and Disable MapBuffer EMU.
After setting this up I was able to actually play a part of the first level without the game crashing. I've attached the plug-in files as they are a bit hard to find on the net (but you can find them via Google with a bit of luck).
Hopefully this helps some folks.
Update: here's a helpful link with instructions. http://brockhatfield.com/2011/11/01/tutorial-shadowgun-on-non-tegra/
Another Update: After messing with this for a while and actually trying to play through the first level I began to experience crashes and reboots again. So, I've sent the developers of both Chainfire 3D and Shadowgun and politely asked them for refunds. Hopefully they will agree.
I have no problems running it on mountain laurel but I know everyone has their own favorite rom. The only bad thing about chainfire is your losing out on some of the great HD & effects.
Success finally.

After reading your post I decided to make the leap from 1.1 bootloader ROMs to the 1.2 bootloader version ROM you mentioned. It was a real pain due to the fact that each time I installed the VTL Launcher my gTab crashed and force closed like crazy and wouldn't let me even get to the home screen.
I had to hard boot it each time (I tried this three times just to make sure that was the problem) and had to NVFlash to the original 1.1 bootloader rooted ROM and then using ClockworkMod I had to flash the latest stock version 3588 TnT Rom. This gave me the stock restore option which I then used to flash the latest Mountain Laurel ROM from Roebeet.
With Mountain Laurel I am able to play Shadowgun without any of the aforementioned issues and I didn't have to use any third-party apps like the Chainfire 3D app I mentioned in my earlier post. It's not as fast as VEGAn 5.1.1 but I guess we can't have everything.
Anyway, my only issue now is not being able to use the VTL Launcher with this ROM. I've read the posts on that other site I won't mention but I haven't had any luck. Every time I install VTL Launcher and restart my gTab it goes into force close mode and becomes unusable. I read that the ADW Launcher has the same issue with this ROM.
Aside from that problem I like this ROM. It runs everything I ran on VEGAn 5.1.1 and then some (Shadowgun).

Yeah, I love this tablet because it was one of the first out of the gate last year with the hardware that it comes with but I am with you on the frustration. Although I have to mention that I played the entire first level and I didn't notice any missing graphics. I am using the stock Mountain Laurel ROM without any custom CPU overclocking or modified kernels.
I already sold my other gTab and might finally decide to part with this one once I get a chance to play with the soon to be released Asus Transformer Prime with the quad-core chip.
Until then I still get plenty of use out of this one and I thank all of the modders, hackers, crackers, tweakers and coders that have put in all the effort and sharing the results they discovered and developed during the past year to make this tablet truly useful.
I´m new here, and i have a problem...
I have downloaded Shadowngun for my Sony Ericsson WT19i, and everything went well.
The main menu started up smotthly, and when I started a New Game for the first time, the intro showed. I watched the whole intro, and just when I was about to play, the game FORCE CLOSED for no reason! :<
Can ANYONE please help? I am dying to play it!
