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!

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.
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!
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
Recently I acquired a new G1 Dev phone and I just got done applying CM 6.1. So far I'm very pleased with the overall result. One thing that doesn't seem to work (or I just don't do something right) is "Market" (now Google Play). If I click on the "Market" icon the web browser opens and I see the Google Play Terms of Service. One would think that there would be a "agree" button but I can't seem to find it. I would be thankful for any tips, hints, ideas.
Please don't post questions in the general section.

1 - Try to install apk of Google Play 3.10.10 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001595) or

Hi guys - I'm having a similar problem with my G1. Recently I've reflashed from Donut by Laszlo to CM5.0.8 and everything was fine. Yesterday I reflashed again, this time going for the 2708+ port - basically CM5.0.8 with ramhack. I flashed with Gapps that didn't include google maps as it was said it would be a bit more stable. Plus I don't really need them so I was glad to have saved some space. What I didn't know was, it didn't contain the Market app either. Now I'm trying to get the market installed but can't seem to succeed. I found an apk that I installed and it worked for a bit, but when started downloading it forceclosed. So I tried an edited google play app, that was supposed to work on the Eclair versions of android and it failed, so I tried to install the previous one again, but that one forcecloses now instantly.
So does anyone know of a Market app for CM5 that is stable, or do I need to reflash Gapps? I would prefer simply a market app, if there is a stable one anywhere...
Never mind actually. Got it to work. I used the wrong Gapps before - that's why the Market didn't work and forceclosed. Just downloaded different Gapps, removed unwanted apks, flashed and that's it. All is fine...
I just installed Cyanogen 10.1 but the nook app from GooglePlay says it's not compatible with my device... And now when i go back to the play store it wont even show up when i search for it. I see there were some others with the same issue a while back but no one replied with a fix.
Does anyone have some ideas?? wife won't be too thrilled if she can't get her precious smut books.
Thanks
Happy wife = Happy life
screw it... I found a .apk for the current version. installed. works.
Found the file at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545664
Every other app that i find for this device works just fine so i'm not going to put too much fuss into finding out why it wouldn't install from the google play market.
Although if anyone has had this happen and found out the cause i'd be interested to see what it was for future reference.
Thanks
