I have the nebtop app and was playing around with it, its a very wonderful invention on motorolas part. But I got on facebook for my wife and she wants to play farmville and so on. I got on with my prone and tried cartown and it says I need newest version of adobe flash. I clicked on it and there are a few different ones from their site, any ideas?
Anyone?
There is nothing wrong with your flash.
Verify that you have the latest rom.
.902
Or it could be that you probably don't have flash installed from the play store.
I never had to update my flash in firefox yet it runs all my zynga games fine.
Flash player 11 has been installed and up to date and im on stock rom so yes it is also up to date!
Any other suggestions
I actually checked out my flash on my webtop and says its outdated but when it says to update takes me to same spot my zynga games do. Also how do I check to see if javascript is on via nebtop. It is on my phones browser.
The flash used by Webtop is SEPARATE from the flash used by the phone. The one poster was absolutly correct in asking if you were running .902, as that did update webtop. but there is no way for you as a user to update the webtop flash unless you either create your own webtop system, and flash it to your phone, or use one of the various hacks and mods. if you are stock, and plan to stay that way, the ONLY way for you to update flash or firefox is wait for Moto to. if you look at the flash version in Webtop, it is 10.x. i would check but my current ROM doenst have webtop support... and that is why it is on its way out...
Ya, im on 902 and im not fully confident on flashing. I've successfully done a few but its still iffy for me. But is there any way to enable java with nebtop cause it says my flash is out of date or java is not enabled!?!
well figured put to enable java but no luck tried a few different games and some of them say adobe flash plug in has crashed. can i get some help???

Hi guys... I have a few questions for you about my Hero. Forgive me for not yet having the same level of knowledge that many of you guys have. I am certain that I can contribute in some way, as well. My phone details:
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband version: 1.04.01.09.21
Kernel version: 2.6.27-533ce29d
Build number: 1.56.651.2 CL5027
Software version: 1.56.651.2
Hardware version: 0002
1. I've read several stories where a number of phones were returned because they couldn't be updated when the new update was released. Is this an absolute fact, that it can't be updated, or is there an error in code somewhere that made it reject the update and there is a known workaround? The answer to this question obviously dictates my forward motion.
I have the typical problem apps, and am getting no joy from youtube. Presently, I'm surfing with good speeds, but market is non-existent.
I like having Sprint tv, when I'm having to sit and wait somewhere.
I have time today and tomorrow to get things ironed out, but will be extrmemly busy after that, like 20 hours a day studying. I'm hoping to get some direction that will give me complete functionality, but will require the least setup. I am quite computer savy, and repaired this phone, to this point, in a day or 2, without asking a single question of anyone. I traced down problems, and solved issues. Seen APN, and TCP errors (don't believe it completely, since I can authenticate on the web). Know that some issues are url problems, etc.
The following questions are based upon the answer to question number 1.
2. Can this phone be updated?
2a. If yes, What do you recommend... 2.1? What rom do you suggest, for full stock-like functionality? Will I lose Sprint tv? Pointers/direction? (pancake??, superhero??)
2b. If no, What rom do you suggest, for full stock-like functionality? Will I lose Sprint tv? Pointers/direction?
Before repairing the phone, I actually tried to update it from my computer, but it was rejected. I turned off my security software and tried again. I noticed that while using XP sp2, a windows program that was incorporated starting with sp2, DEP (data execution prevention) didn't like the actions that the update was taking, and arrested it very shortly after starting (yet the window cycled forever). I assume that many people wouldn't be this observative, and recognize that this was happening. It was halting an HTC file that utilized storage memory (similar to buffer overrun exploits - the reason DEP halted it), for temporary storage of the files to be used for the update. That file was as follows:
C:\Program Files\HTC\HTC Sync\Mobile Phone Monitor\FsyncServer.exe
And the way to prevent it from continuing to do so is:
1. Click Start
2. Select Control Panel
3. Select System
4. Click the Advanced tab
5. In the Performance region select Settings
6. Click the Data Execute tab in the dialog box that opens
7. Select Turn on DEP for all programs and services except for those I select
8. Click Add.
9. The open dialog box will open. Browse and select your application.
10. Click Open
11. Click Apply
12. Click Ok
I guess what I'm sort of suggesting, is that this might be why anyone ever had problems updating, with the exception that OTA also said there wasn't an update.
So, back to the original question. Is it true that some Heros can't be updated? I don't want to force something, and brick, if you know what I mean. I completed the setting that will allow it to go forward (listed above), but haven't tried to update since. I felt that I really needed to ask you guys first, before I made a mistake that I'd regret. Should I try again? Before I started working on the phone I did try OTA and it said there wasn't an update. Now I don't have that option anymore. After repairing the phone, I've lost updates. Am I stuck with 1.5? With my run of the mill phone desires (except that it be fully functional), should I keep 1.5?
I did see gmail 2.3 apk, but is that compatible with 1.5? This looks like is would solve the market issue, if I could use it.
I did read about gscript and addressing mms (although I'm sure that's very old news to you guys), but if in fact I can't update this phone, it might be one of my only alternatives. If that is my only choice, are their also additional scripts to address everything I need to fix (all the normal issues)?
Additionally, it seems that many apps register with the phone/user. So, when you are using a used phone, many apps are still registered as functional. Does flashing a new rom affect the OS and apps? Will I loose the already registered/functioning apps? With a complete upgrade, will I gain functionality of some key features, but lose all other previously enabled apps? In other words, will I gain update, and market, and lose sprint tv?
I have read a lot. With things the way they should be, I've not been able to quite determine what I need to do. With all this being said, How do I go forward and achieve a fully functioning phone? What is the best choice of path's to take for me?
Rooting? I have seen the one-click, and think I'd be correct in that I need something containing Sense UI. Forgive me for asking a stupid question... but the rom is only the menu accessibility, correct? Is there something straight out of the box setup, or do all roms contain configuration notes?
I'm satisfied with stock features, if they work, and adding other useful things like tethering. Since I'll be so busy, I'll have little time to do much else. But don't get me wrong. I have 10 PC's in my house, with only 2 people living here. I'd love to customize the crap out of it. It's just not going to happen any time soon, due to my brutal study schedule. So for now, I just want it to work like it should, on a B mvno.
Do I go north, south, east, or west????
Could someone chime in that can give me direction, based on everything I've stated. Your response is so graciously appreciated.
Cheers!
Umm well I'm not sure why you're having problems with any update, someone who's far more experienced can maybe tell you but as far as roms I think it depends on whether you like sense or wanna go froyo. Cyanogen mod 6.1 stable (2.2) is nice & highly customizable however there's also AOSP roms (2.2) that some people feel is quicker than cyanogen however they aren't as customizable as cyanogen, in addition there are tons of GREAT themes for both. Also we've had a ton of work on an odex AOSP gingerbread rom (2.3) not yet stable but works good for most & on that note a great themer also put together a themed AOSP gingerbread rom (2.3) that looks good & about stability I'm not so sure on but I would recommend those roms. Although with these roms YES you will lose sprint apps like TV & vvm etc. However people have posted these apks in the theme thread section to work on roms like cyanogen & AOSP. If you do like sense roms there's a couple that are still live in the development section like nfinite & nfx I believe. Hope some of that info helps
Thanks so much for your response. So Cyanogen mod 6.1 stable (2.2) is highly customizable... That's good.
So let me get this straight. I need to:
root (is one-click OS version specific? Can it be used on 1.5?)
backup
save to pc
update to 2.1 (if I can, and it needs to be the rootable version found here)
re-root
and flash Cyanogen
and setup
Is this correct?

Sort of. I can't remember which version I was at when I rooted but I remember I downgraded to do it. But if you go in the development section you will find a thread that shows & gives you what you need to root. So you should root. Then flash a recovery image such as clockwork mod or amon ra. When I rooted I used the recovery from the downloadable app (Rom manager) in the market & that one was clockdwork mod. It's worked great for me so I've been using it ever since. Then backup whatever you are running currently. Then flash whatever rom you want. I'm about to see if I can link you to a root thread then once you do so I can give you a dl link to cm 6.1 stable. Will you be able to root on 1.5?? I don't completely know...
Edit: Ok this is the way I rooted mine, hopefully this will work for you

I was given a g Tablet last week for my birthday. I've spent hours digging through this site and I installed Clockworkmod and TNTLite 4.2.4. I have the following questions/problems...
1) I can't get Market to run. I've installed it using the instructions in this thread but when I click it, the screen briefly flashes white and then the menu page returns. When I go to the Applications menu, the cache is empty.
My other two spring from not being able to get Market running.
2) I desperately need to get Root Explorer running so I can unprotect the system directory and enable Graffiti. I loathe virtual keyboards.
3) I'd like to figure out how to sideload apps. I learned how to install .apk files, but not how to install an app that doesn't have an .apk file.
Again: I've spent hours on this site looking for answers, so please don't 'search is your friend' me. That being said, I'm more than happy to get a snarky, "This took me 3.5 seconds to find" with a link to the answer.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sideloading apps just means installing the apk from somewhere other than the market. You can't install an app if it doesn't have an apk. The apk is the app. Unless they give you an update.zip or something, and even then, there is an apk in it.
I know this is off topic I got one for my best too I love it

Try this to fix your market
Step 3.
Open the Market app. Once it loads close it (press the home button).
Step 4.
Go into Settings - Applications - Manage Applications - Market - Clear CACHE - Force Stop
(For TnT/TnT Lite... Settings - Applications - System Applications)
Step 5.
Press back once - Google Services Framework - Clear DATA - Force Stop
Step 6.
Go back to your home screen and open up the market. You should get an error. If not, redo steps 4 and 5 until you do.
Step 7.
Reboot your device. After it starts back up let it sit for a minute or two to let things in the operating system normalize. Open the Market. Reboot your device.
Step 8.
Open the market again and enjoy
And to side load my apps i use something like dropbox and place the apps in there and then load the dropbox app on your gtab and any files and folders that you placed in there you can side load. Hope this helps!
Might as well gotten the TNTL 4.4.0, has alot the fixes implented already and stable.
Here the page if you are interested
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
Here's the problem: all of the fixes to Market require that Market actually loads:
6) Now you are going to re-do the original Market Fix. ... First, make sure Market is running, and browse around in it for a few seconds. If you don't do this, there may be no cache to clear and for some reason the market fix may not work. ...
Click to expand...

As I mentioned: Market has never successfully loaded for me. I get a brief white screen and then the panel I launched from reloads. This is the only app where I'm having this problem.
And, of course, without Market, I'm dead in the water on pretty much everything else...
Use an updated ROM
As posted before, use the latest ROM for what you are trying to accomplish. The fix has already been done. Try the Vegan 5.1 then the 5.1.1 supplement. It is really stable and stuff works.
I know you're asking about getting the market to work with TNT lite, but nobody seems to have an answer for you. So, if you want your tab to just work, including the market, google apps, etc...
1 - Go here http://vegantab.gojimi.com/downloads/ and download VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition
2 - Plug in a USB cable and drop that zip file onto the root of your SD card
3 - Reboot into ClockworkMod (power off, then hold volume + while powering on)
4 - Use ClockworkMod to do these steps:
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- wipe dalvik cache (it's under advanced)
- install zip from sdcard
- - choose zip from sdcard
- - - select VEGAn-GE-7.0.0-RC1-Harmony-signed.zip
- reeboot system now
5 - after it boots up, do the setup
6 - POWER OFF once setup is done - don't skip this
7 - power back on
8 - enjoy the Gingery goodness including the market, google apps, a juicy speed boost, etc, etc, etc.
It will be running VTL.Launcher v1.5. If you like the launcher, or if you just want to thank Gojimi for the awesome rom that was so easy to install (and it just worked with no futzing around), go into the market and buy the new version of VTL.Launcher. It costs almost nothing and you're not going to find a better launcher for a tablet. More info on VTL.Launcer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046302

Ah, man...
Initial reboot after installing VEGAn is unsuccessful: I'm not getting past the birds.
Crappity, crap, crap...
Is this the 'locked' bootloader? If so, I wish I'd figured that out before I moved on. I can see the instructions for fixing it in that thread, but how do I get the .zip file to tablet memory now?
NVM: Found the 'mount' option in CWM. I'm on it like a jimmie hat. Further updates as events warrant...
Frack! Still stuck on the birds...
After several painstaking attempts to get VEGAn installed, I'm going to reinstall the downgrade to regain use of my pad while I decide where to go from here.
It is a common issue for the tablets to have been shipped with some mixed up partitions. It doesn't seem to bother the Froyo based ROMs, but it causes the GB based roms to hang at the 'birds'.
Find the thread/directions on doing nvFlash. That will restore the tab to the true stock state (including the proper partitions) and you can then flash GB based roms with no issues.
I got my gtab less than a week ago. In this short time, i have tried the stock rom, vegan 5.11, vegan 7 gingeredition and cynogenmod 700/702 and TNT lite 44! And i have to tell you that i loved each one of them!
But before I flashed anything, i followed the instructions in this thread to the letter.
httpi://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245i
My recommendation to you will be to start over and read first then read again and then implement!
For now i am settling on TNTlite 44 as it offers the best combination of what i need. I decided to stay away from gingerbread as hardware acceleration and video playback suffers on it. Vegan 511 is based on 2.2 but somehow i felt graphics were not up to my expected level. Again these are all my personal preferences, so you definitely want to try them all before you settle on your rom.
Having said all this, i greatly appreciate all the hard work from all developers of these rom and thank them for such great options for the gtab!

Could you clarify what you mean by this?
I am currently running VEGAn 5, and have no huge problems with it at all, but if TnT offers something better, then I may jump on that.
What do you mean by the graphics not being up to the expected level?
Thanks for the advice, everyone. I did a repartition when I started installing TNT Lite. I assumed it would 'stick', but I'll restart from scratch and shoot for VEGAn for a change of pace. Prolly give it a try tomorrow if I hit a slow patch at work.
Just had a thought...if you just got your Gtab the other day, there is a chance you may have been running the new 1.2 dev instead of the old 1.1(which is what most all the ROMS available are based on) and supposedly the two don't really play well without NVFlashing first...so that may be the issue you are having. Then again it may not. Good luck and I hope it all works out.
When using Vegan 5.1.1 I noticed that some of the graphic elements of the UI would look "shaded" or "grainy" (from a proper viewing angle). Also I have some standard wallpapers that I migrate over whenever I reflash. These were also looking a little lower in quality. Now it may be just me or my specific GTab, but that's what I observed. I did not see this when using either of the Gingerbread roms or the stock rom or the TNTLite.
Before you jump on, remember that TNT Lite 4.4 is essentially closed, and I moved over to try it and plan to stay on it until there is any news about hardware accelerated drivers for Gingerbread or Honeycomb comes along! Hope this helps.
Okay, I tried getting Ginger to work three additional times, including following the original instructions I followed to load TNT Lite step by step: no dice. I'm out of patience with it; at this point I'm running the 4349 downgrade.
I was planning on reloading TNT Lite, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. I never did get Market or Graffiti to work.
I don't understand a lot of these phone jargon so if this has been answered just kindly help me out.
I have a droid bionic which i rooted a while back to play games with my ps3 controller. Simply put that's about the only thing I did with it. Well as the updates came, I just unrooted and didn't wanna have anything to do with rooting again, but this ICS update came out a while back and I keep getting the Update Unsuccessful message when I do the OTA thing. I factory reset my phone (lost my favorite digial clock) and that didn't work. I even looked up youtube videos on how to manually update and it doesn't work and leaves me with some error. My phone works great it's just I want to use the most recent update now, but I'm stuck on android 5.9.905 gingerbread and I can't update.
So anyone savy with this know my problem and how it might be fixed?
Hello ya'll, I'm new to the forum, I joined because of the wealth of information here.
So I'm not new to Android, had one ever since I was 16. I rooted both my droid phones(droid X with that awesome slider keyboard, and RAZR MAXX) to remove those pesky bloatware apps, but didn't ROM them, as it just wasn't something I wasn't aware of when I did it. So rooting was as far as I got.
But rooting and ROM-ing a tablet seems like it could be a daunting job, I'm new to the tablet world But I already have most of the tools, from previous roots, minus a few that are platform specific that I'm currently downloading to support the new CROMBi-X
I figure I'll go about getting everything I need, so when I get my tablet back from the shop, I'll be able to dive right into the CROMBi ROM.
//
I don't want to brick my tablet so hence the questions I am unclear on.
//
Question 1: Asus doesn't have the standalone unlock tool on their website. How do I go about getting that tool to unlock the tablet? Was it done OTA or downloaded and installed onto the tablet?
I have searched a few places, and browsed the developer forums, but haven't come up with a surefire way yet. I've seen everything from asking ASUS to unlock the tablet, to flashing CWM recovery, and than flashing a rooted version of the stock ROM, 've read several of the forums, but I need a little bit of "English" on the topic, as this is something new to me. I did come across a root.zip link but I'm not entirely sure that is what I am looking for, or if it is version/BLoader specific. If it is, then that pretty much covers that question.
Question 2: Are all the drivers on the ROM? Or do I need to use something like [ADB/FB/APX Driver] Universal Naked Driver 0.7?
Question 3: Mods. Are they downloaded OTA from the play store, or is there a list of compatible mods for the ROM? I realize that most of them are probably cosmetic right? I'm probably asking in the wrong forum, but since this is LINUX based, once rooted, if I put Ubuntu on the tablet, and then run a ROM on top of it? or Do I have to choose between one or the other?
I'm only asking because I run a few programs that aren't able to run on the android platform that I use for recreational purposes.
Anyway, that about covers a few of the base questions I have for now. Time to get ready for work. Thanks for any help in advance!
For 1:
It's on ASUS website
www.service.asus.com/#!downloads/c1wax
Version V1.0
Unlock Device App: Unlock boot loader of TF701T.(Only works with 4.2 JB and later OS)
For 2:
It's been a while since I rooted however I think you only need fastboot to be able to put the custom recovery on the tablet. If you have ADB/FB drivers already installed your pc should see your tablet without an issue. I don't know what APX is.
For 3:
Not sure what you mean by Mods. And last I checked I don't think that you can and Linux to this tablet yet however even if you could you only get one or the other.
Oh and make sure you read through all of the instructions for rooting and roming

First you need to determine what firmware you are running now and decide which JB version you want to run.
Check under Settings > About Tablet > Software version. On stock your firmware version and bootloader version are identical.
If you are on JB 4.3 you have either 10.26.1.7 or 10.26.1.18 (if you have the former, update to .18)
If you are on JB 4.4.2 you have 11.4.1.17
On JB 4.3
a) You can root the tablet without unlocking the bootloader with Towelroot v1.
b) You can unlock, flash CWM and then flash sbdag's stock rooted rom, one of several custom roms or just the root.zip
On JB 4.4.2
Right now there is no way to root without unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom recovery first.
Once unlocked and with CWM installed, you can flash sbdag's rooted stock rom or flash the root.zip.
CROMi-X 7.0 for 4.4.2 is in the works. I do not know if the other custom roms (CM, CROMi-X 6, CROMbi-KK) are compatible with the 11.4.1.17 bootloader yet, but that's just a matter of time.
To install CWM follow the insructions here:

Try it. I did not have to install new adb/fastboot drivers and the device drivers installed on my PC automativcally. YMMV
Open Device Manager, then connect the tablet. Let the drivers install and see if it shows up in Device Manager.
Then boot the tablet into fastboot, connect it to PC and see if it shows up as a fastboot device.
Enable USB debugging in Developer Options, then connect the tablet booted into Android and see if it shows up as ADB interface in Device Manager.
If you need drivers you can use the ones you mentioned.
Question 3: Mods. Are they downloaded OTA from the play store, or is there a list of compatible mods for the ROM? I realize that most of them are probably cosmetic right?

You'll find mods in the rom thread or at least the links for those that work with that rom.. No OTA updates
I'm probably asking in the wrong forum, but since this is LINUX based, once rooted, if I put Ubuntu on the tablet, and then run a ROM on top of it? or Do I have to choose between one or the other?
I'm only asking because I run a few programs that aren't able to run on the android platform that I use for recreational purposes.

There's a thread in the TF700 dev section on dual booting Android and Ubuntu. Not aware that anybody has tried it on the TF701.
Thanks for the link Sleepy! I had searched the website a couple times before, but I must have missed that part of it. Every other time I went somewhere to find it, it came back page unavailable. I'm really disliking this Kuwaiti right now! Well I won't know until I get the tablet back what JB is on it, but I imagine it would be sent back to a factory setting because of the issues I was having, or just get a whole new tablet all together depending on what was causing it not to charge.
I appreciate the clarification on everything guys, without the tablet in my hands I'm pretty much downloading everything I can that might help me out. I already have CWM, and several versions of it to be on the safe side.
I have been doing nothing but non-stop research, but it's daunting to try and go through 115 pages of information and tools, and version changes and what's compatible and how to use them. Watching videos has simplified it a little bit.
The reason I asked about Ubuntu, was I saw it dual booted to an older CROMi 2.X on the 700T
I used to run XP pro/Ubuntu on my laptop. Which was really nice when I needed a lightweight OS to free up processing power. Well before I had to format due to a near catastrophic drive failure and unrepairable data corruption. Anyway, that is a project for another time, one thing at a time!
I'll be around, busy with work 6 days a week!
Thanks again!

First you need to determine what firmware you are running now and decide which JB version you want to run.
Check under Settings > About Tablet > Software version. On stock your firmware version and bootloader version are identical.
If you are on JB 4.3 you have either 10.26.1.7 or 10.26.1.18 (if you have the former, update to .18)
If you are on JB 4.4.2 you have 11.4.1.17

4.4.x is KitKat, not Jelly Bean, isn't it?

Yes.
List of repairs done
So what I thought was a simple battery not charging issue turned out to be a host of things. I had to have the LCD, Touchpadboard, Docking cable and LCD cable replaced, luckily I was under warranty. I imagine that would have been expensive!
Does anyone have the new bootloader from the newest beta?
The bootloader is still the same as the Preview 4 (71.21) but the radio has changed from 36R to 39R.
Yeah it's still the same I was able to flash the ota and using the nexus root tool I was able to flash twrp and super user with no problems although I think facebook does not like the route because I I told my girlfriend about the newest preview and she is not all that tech savvy so what I ended up doing was just signing her up for the beta and and leaving it stock. I say facebook doesn't like the root because it doesn't work on mine but on hers it does.
But facebook is the only app I have seen that is failing any kind all of the other apps work really well I use yata for texting, the game boy emulator my boy still works really well but I won't get into detail about that right now . Most of the time if I ever need a boot loader or a radio or something of a system file , you can never go wrong with androidfilehost.com and the keyword you would look up is shamu. Just thought I'd give you a little bit of information I don't know how much you know but I actually posted the link two the newest preview as soon as it was available and I also posted that on the preview four forum on this site.
Here soon I am going to try and fully decrypt my phone Here soon I am going to try and fully decrypt my phone because I don't really care for encryption and also whenever you have your phone not encrypted I don't know about you guys but it's a lot faster for me. I will report back with any issues if any exist
