[Q] Can my samsung galaxy tablet download pc games? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone I just wanna know can my samsung tab download pc games like fear 2 or halo, call of duty games like that, thats on a system and to add one more thing my android market on my tab wont load all the apps like if I type in music download in the search bar it only shows like 20 apps for that name and in the corner of the screen it says for example: 5000 results but it dont show all of them like the first market I had ever since I upgraded to this market thats when I started having this problem

Your PC runs an operating system (OS) called Windows. Your Tab uses a different OS, Android. So no you can't play PC games on your Tab.
The market thing I don't know about.

Oh ok do you know any apps where I can waych free movies and also do you know any cool stuff that I can program my tab to do? Cuz I really just got this tab like a week ago so I dont really know like what plugins and roms, custom themes stuff like that I can do with it

Maybe you should give it back

[Q] Multitouch and Flash?

I was just browsing some files using Root Explorer to see what we might be able to do to get Multitouch working on the ZIO. In /system/etc/permissions directory I found a file called handheld_core_hardware.xml that when I open it up has information about permissions of the device hardware and then says this.
<!-- devices with multitouch must also include
android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml -->
<!-- devices with full multitouch must also include
android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct.xml -->

I've also found the applications currently installed on the phone in the /system/app directory that has every app on the phone, Maybe we can inject some files from another phone that have Multitouch and Flash working?
I know I'm not the only one that is currently scanning this phone for things that we can "exploit" to make it better. If anyone else can think of what we can do to get Multitouch and Flash to work go ahead and give us your input and we'll get this going.
don think flash will work nativaly becase it requires a arm7 proc and I think the Zio is an ARm6 based proc..... you can get flash running through skyfire browser from what I understand though...
as far as multitouch??? dunno you may be onto something!
I am determined to make this phone work better than CricKet is willing to make it work. I know it's not a high end device but cmon my old pentium 3 gateway that had a 600mhz processor could run flash. There has to be a way that we can spoof the processor to install flash if it only allows the arm7 or higher.
I dont know if you have Root Explorer but I would reccomend it for browsing the files on the phone. I would say it is worth the 4.03 USD or 2.50 EUR. That and Uninstaller for Root to remove the bloatware.
Multitouch could be a hardware issue as well. I know the zio has a substandard capacitive touchscreen -- maybe it doesnt support multitouch.
BUT, I could be completely wrong as I am making a hypothetical assumption.
I downloaded flash here: http://www.4shared.com/file/k6SycB0R/Adobe_Flash_Player_101_1016168.htm
I then dropped it into my SD card and installed it just fine on the new cricket 2.2.1 update. It seems to be working just fine, though it does sometimes kick me out of browser pages, so I just switch to Opera Mobile 10.1 and it works on that one much better.
Sweet, trying to get this working now.

Got it to install just fine on mine too, but it causes my stock browser to FC all the time, even when just trying to type in a web address. I will have to try this with another browser.
Kyocera originally stated when the phone launched that it supported multi touch. This phone is going to have to suppport multi touch in some way or another. Maybe we could contact Kyocera to find out exactly what hardware is in this phone?

Try using Dolphin Browser. I use HD because it goes full screen.

Tried with dolphin mini -- nogo (FC)
Dolphin browser -- nogo (FC)
Dolphin HD -- nogo (FC)
hmm thats odd. I'll have to try this once I get my phone working again. I was messing with some cpu files then restarted my phone. well now I'm in a loop after the Kyocera logo. The cricket logo comes up and restarts from the cricket logo again. I'm currently working on getting it working again with adb and fastboot. I may end up using fastboot to flash the boot image and then run the update, it will then take me into the recovery just like it did the other day.

Is there an alternative to root explorer that's free?

Check the market under productivity you should find the free equivalent.
I was able to install flash but... FC on all browsers except opera mini. I had to uninstall just to use the free xda apparently because it kept restarting. Flash isn't too huge of a deal for me, I think it might be why flash isn't included in the update

Anyone have any problems with Appbrain.
I noticed with appbrain it doesn't reconize that I have the 2.2 installed on my phone. Anyone else having the same problem? I also posted a few questions on here about a few things I noticed my phone doing but never got a response back. Guess they weren't important questions or something.
Also was wondering about SELECT DEVICE ADMINISTRATORS in the settings/location & security. What is it and why is it empty if i'm the admin of my own phone???
Something else I feel really sucks that they did with this phone.
Why the hell did Kyocera have this phone where when you set a wallpaper you always have to crop the dam thing and cut half your pic off just to set it??
I think its bull**** concidering the resolution of the phone there would be no need to limit the size of the wallpaper you set. I feel it sucks ass totally cause no matter what size I make my wallpapers I always have to cut half the pic off to set it as a wallpaper on the phone.
That little resize box sucks!! Now it may be an app I have installed on the phone but i'm having the same BS problem when typing txt messages with the keyboard missing letters and the latter just the same as if i still had the 1.6 crap on it.
I'm starting to hate this stinking phone to a point i'm about to take my hammer to it.

I had the same problem. Anything I opened once I installed the flash just FC on me till i uninstalled it. I just installed Opera brower and i'm re-installing the Flash now, i'll reply back with what I get after its all done.
Well I installed Opera browser, Re-installed Flash player and Rebooted my phone. Once running I when to adobe.com to test the flash and in the content window it states: To view this experience, you need JavaScript enabled and the latest adobe flash player installed
I have opera and it works with flash installed. I haven't really seen flash working since installation. Tried using opera to go to YouTube but it opened the app rather than embedding in the browser.

I give up. about to for the 5th time now completely reset my phone, format my SD card, and redue the entire phone from scratch.
With flashed installed I can't even goto appbrain app market without the never ending FC happening just as Appbrain begins to load. This sucks! I really don't want to spend half the day again reinstalling all my crap back to this phone. Its been a headache sence day 1 I had it till now. Seemed to run just fine leaving the thing alone aside trying to figure out what bloatware crap other then the 2 lousy games that comes with the phone.
By the way. The bloatware is mobile web, mybackup, uno, my account, storefront, midnight bowling, ziotop10apps, and you can remove home screen tips

I really don't remember Kyocera saying it was multitouch. I do remember some reviews of the phone saying that it was, but those are not associated with Kyocera, those are just some guys online giving their two cents on their blogs and websites.
On the actual Kyocera Zio website,for the Spring version with Froyo on it it states:
Display Specs: 3.5" 262K-color TFT LCD WVGA (480x800 pixels), capacitive touch screen navigation
Input: SWYPE - Fast and easy text input
Navigation: Track Ball navigation
Physical
It does not mention multitouch

[Q] Market Place

I have a GT and 5 minutes ago i tried to launch Market Place to see if i have any updates, and then, when i reached the Applications Section which it show which applications i have on my Tablet it shows me only Youtube and Google Maps, i have a lot of games and applications installed but only Google Maps and Youtube application show me the Market! I'm using stock version of Froyo!
If I'm understanding right, it doesn't show all the apps you've downloaded and installed, just some? I have that issue sometimes too, and I just fix it by turning my tab off and on again, and the list rebuilds.. If this isn't what you meant, I'm sorry. I hope it is, and it helps.
Right, the market isnt always right, but a reboot helps many things.
You pull out the sd card lately? If yes, try download an aplication who is allready in your tab and the problem will gone.

I solved the problem by downloading a new application from market, and then the list of downloaded and installed apps came back! And something else, before I post here yesterday I did about 3 or 4 times restart and again I had the same problem, but when I downloaded the new application the list came back again! Thanks for yor answers people!

Symbian like Task manager/switcher on I9000

I enjoyed being a symbian user , till it became extinct.
Now that i have been using android on my I9000 , the one feature i seem to miss is "one step" task switching / ending , like in symbian .
In android the switching is done from the recent apps list and the ending is done from the actual task manager , this is done in two steps , and it's a major incovenience .
Any workaround guys ??
Also have a look at this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-DGZv1SrqQ
At time 1:23 the guy switches , to another task just like i wanted it ?
How was that possible ??
which android ver are you using?
and there is no need to close the background apps..nd using a task manager spoils your ram too...android automatically stops the apps when it needs more Ram
Thanks for your reply
All i want to know is how was switching to opera possible in the video at 1:23
İ want that 1:23 task manager too
long press home button -> task manager and it shows your active apps... but i guess it works differently from SGS1 because if you do this on the I9000 it will show you the info regarding that app
Yes showing info about the app is fine , but i really want it to switch to that app when its touched
Am starting to miss my N- series now
That looks like the stock samsung app manager from settings in older android builds.

I think it was last on eclair, but possibly froyo - so not without a downgrade.......
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
Task switcher from market is similar.

I think you've got it wrong , if you see the video , it looks like touchwitz 4 .

[Q] Similar apps to 'AirDroid'

ok as the title suggests.... anyone of you know of any apps similar to AirDroid? Ive tried using it and 8 out of 10 times i cannot seem to log in to the webclient to connect my phone....
Please note, im not looking for solutions to this problem here.... just alternative apps that does the same thing more or less....
thanks in advance
There's a app called browsix that I've used before, it doesn't have the nice interface AirDroid does but its has half the features of it. You can find it on the market.
Just thought I'd suggest it.
Tried that one but still can't get it to work properly maybe its something to do with my Wi-Fi.... using Wi-Fi file explorer for now tho..... seems to be ok
search button..... just do it.....
try file expert. it has a feature like tht.
bt nt as good as airdroid
Was abt to download that and give it a shot then I read further into the reviews and although it got good ratings, there were reports of spam and huge battery drain.... sigh... airdroid is still the best so far but for the life of me I can't figure out what's wrong with me connecting to the website.... seriously anyone else using airdroid?
search button..... just do it.....
so u r trying to http://web.airdroid.com/ or locally?
ur firewall might block the port
for me, both local and website works fine
The website link is useless for me, the only times I got on it were on the 192.11 etc even that is not stable for me firewall is ok as using other almost similar apps manage to log me on easily
search button..... just do it.....
You might wanna try ES Explorer, since the last updates, it got the SD card sharing function, and with that became the best file manager for me.
i am using es, but does it let you control your phone and its contents from your computer?
Is it possible to transfer data with an FTP server like airdroid or something?
Or can I just access my phones data?

-delete-
Try websharing app, it has good user interface
With lite version you can upload single file at a time, with full version you can upload bulk files, folder etc. Full version have some nice features.
With airdroid I also have sometimes auto disconnect problem
Sorry for bad english

It does. Check the Remote Manage box in Settings > Remote Settings.
It has been 6 months I dont know if you found anything but I can reccomend a great app just like AirDroid.
It's called SnapPea and its truly awesome. Been using it for some time now and its really great.
Webkey
Not sure if this one has been mentioned but Webkey is astonishingly powerful. Needs root but can connect through various networks; I use it when airdroid won't work. The PC side is just a webpage. Address is http://webkey.cc and you get the app from the Market.
I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to share something I discovered.
Not sure if it has changed yet, but I was using Opera web browser a couple of months ago, and AirDroid does not work with that browser...just an FYI ​
Cool!
Airdroid 2.0 is awesome!
But the below two are very good as well!

problems loading some apps from samsung app store

So I just got my neo and am trying to load some apps on to it. I can load some such as the flashlight app and pacman but I wanted to add an rss reader like appy geek or feedly. Sadly, they say they install and then when I go to gear manager and look on the list, it's not there and I receive a notification that the install failed. I had to go to settings=>apps and remove the appy geek for gear app that way and the same for feedly. I have the apps installed on my phone and am running a GS4 with 4.4.2 and the latest Samsung apps from their website. Is anyone else having issues similar to these or know of a work around?
Thanks!
I'm having this issue as well. Anyone have an answer?

I am having a similar problem.
A friend used my phone to install an app from the samsung store. Now when I want to install the app it says view in gear manager instead of giving me the option to install on my gear 2. There seems to be no way to make the samsung store think it is uninstalled. I have fully reset my gear 2, phone, deleted my samsung account and made a new one, no change at all.
Super annoying. 5$ to anyone with a fix.

Same problem for me on kitkat
The app install on my phone but gets error after that to or when try install on the phone
Did you all mess with Samsung Hub? I know I had this issues when I uninstalled it.
I dont have any thing with name samsung hub.....
