I own an Evo 4G with Froyo. A friend of mine has a Captivate. I love the Music Player app that comes bundled with it and would love to get it on my phone.
With the 2.2 Captivate beta in the wild, has anyone extracted the MusicPlayer apk so it can be installed on other devices? Just curious.
(Note: I have a fully rooted Evo).
I don't know how well it would work for you. I think its pretty TouchWiz dependent. But you're welcome to try. Here it is.

Don't be thrown off by the link, its just a shortened URL to my dropbox account.

Thank you!
I'm suprised I haven't seen anything in this forum about this, but the system dump from the first tegra 2 phone has been around for a while. Here is the system dump thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931114
The libflashplayer.apk is attached.
It works great for me on the adam rom.
Vimeo HD is a little choppy but way better. ESPN3 is like butter. I put this is the dev section because I believe there is much that can be done with this system dump for the betterment of the community.
Thanks! I'll have to try this out later. I've already seen pretty good performance with flash so this should be even better.
Thanks! I'm going to check this out as well. I wonder if one of the devs can find something that can help with the gameloft games.
Hmm... installed on my GTab, and all flash video crashes now. I tried Youtube, and TheDailyShow.
Edit: Running Vegan 5.1 with Pershoot's kernel
Causes force closes of both my broswers anytime flash is needed. Went back to flash with the hulu fix. Works great
can someone please get this optimized version to include the hulu fix?
Moved to themes and apps
Not working in BitTrix CM7 in the Browser or Fennec 4 beta5pre.
YouTube app works the same as it did before.
Has anyone tried the widgets and other apps from the Optimus? I've seen some floating around in XDA but can't try them out yet. Just wondering if anyone already did. Especially the weather widget. That looks nice.
The weather news widget works for me in the above stated configuration
Not sure if anyone else was following this thread here in the Asus Transformer subforum, but apparently some people got units shipped to them with the development Froyo build on them. Looks like one of them made a system dump of it, full of 2.2 versions of their apps and other goodies.
Post with System Dump
So far, looking just through the app apks, I found their Launcher, Music, and Gallery apps and they work pretty good on my GTablet running Vegan-Tab Ginger... the music one is better than the stock 2.2 music app IMO.
I am not as technically inclined as some people on this forum, so I didn't dig into anything else. Maybe we might find some other useful things in this dump that I haven't noticed yet.
I just unzipped the dump onto my flash drive, inserted it to my tablet, went to the /usbdisk/system/app directory (or the system/app subdirectory if you put the dump into a different folder), and installed the apks there that looked interesting.
So far, I installed Launcher2.apk, MyMusic.apk, and MyGallery.apk (I think those are the names, forgive me, I am at work and don't have the tablet with me). The MyWater Live Wallpaper apk is there too (under a different name, but you'll see the file icon is water and ice cubes), but I haven't installed it since I have the version from Honeycomb working on mine. The 2.2 version of MyWater might work better for us than the 3.0, I haven't tried it yet.
Since the dump came out pretty late last night, I didn't have much time to play with it, but I am going to mess around with the apps some more tonight and see if there is anything else of value.
If anyone else finds anything good, please post your findings!
Oh yeah, the boot animation is in there too, but it looks like the ASUS logo, so I didn't mess with it on my Viewsonic tablet. lol
I wanted to do some screenshots last night, but I didn't get a chance to since it was late. Tonight, I'll hook up the tablet to the computer and get some shots to post on here.
As for the MyWater live wallpaper, take a look at this:

So a few days ago, I flashed the Larger Than Life EF17 ROM that recently came out. I loved having a rooted Tab with Froyo so i jumped when i saw it in Gingerbread.
I am having one annoying problem though. I am unable to find a few apps on the Anidroid Market that were there on stock Gingerbread. The main two i can think of are Netflix and Documents2Go. I purchased the activating/key program for D2G and can find that but no luck on the main app.
I dont absolutely need Netflix but D2G is my favorite office app and use it nearly daily.
The other oddity is that in the latest market, it shows Books for purchase but i dont see a single movie to rent. The entire movie section is missing from the market.
I understand this is likely causes by the device fingerprint but i dont know what to change it to.
Does anyone have any ideas on what i could do to get back the apps i had in stock EF17? I would have replied to the ROM thread in the Development forum but i havent posted enough on the xda forums to do so.
There are ways to fix the symptoms very easily, but it won't fix the problem you're describing. I've got a netflix apk I can post that should work(don't have d2g). But like I said, won't make apps come up in the market.

i've got the same issue, and cannot update my system apps in the market (says I am up to date, even though I am not).
i keep just pulling them down off my phone and emailing them to myself, but that gets old

Thank you very much for your divine support and suggestion but am not planning to sell it.
I am asking on how to maximize my tab not to gain profit from it. Softwares and application to use since I am already rooted and using overcome rom.
Play with your tab.
Install games and apps.
Lots of stuff to do with your tab.
You can use it for:
i. Playing games
Try Fruit Ninja, it's the only games I have on my tab right now
ii. Entertainment
Try PowerAmp + MusicMatch, you can ideally have the tab play music with lyris displayed.
I don't use it for playing mkv files coz the screen is small, maybe after I get my TV-OUT adapter. Use youtube couple times with it though
iii. Information
Try Pulse News Reader + Boat Browser (It's what I use for the time being)
iv. Social
Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo Messenger, Tapatalk for forum, etc..
v. Office Work
Gmail, Ymail, I use connectbot + hacker's keyboard for server maintenance
vi. Etc2..
Lot's of interesting app in the market. Check the market. Have u try ZenBrush ??
Regards,
Jhon
PS: Hope it leads to u to the right direction
yeah, sorry. Just joking.
I agree with wuf31.
Played Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds.
Use Pulse News for RSS based news, and also BeyondPod to get my favourite podcast.
I also use BS Player to play my video over SMB share. You will find it working very well, no stuttering whatsoever. My video files sit in my linux file share running samba.
Use PocketCould to RDP or VNC to your desktops.
Overcome kernel even support OpenVPN, if you need VPN.

Thank you for the recommendation. Will check BS Player and BeyondPod.
Btw, quick question, do I need to install anything on the Windows side to use RDP or VNC?
PocketCould is just a normal RDP/VNC client.
As long as you can RDP using desktop to your windows, you should be able to use PocketCould.
Same as VNC.
The free version can only have 1 connection profile.
The free one also can't have zoom in and out by pinch.
bear in mind that PocketClould claims they don't support linux as host OS, so your milage may vary. I bought my Pro version and found that out (that it doesn't support x11vnc properly). Strangely few weeks back it started to work properly now. Vaguely remember there was an update from market. Maybe they fix it.
Give the free one a go. I was using it for months before I bought the pro one.
BTW, it also offer to let you use google account to ease connecting to hosts, but I didn't bother to try out.
I just key in IP, username/password as usual.

Useful Apps for me:
Evernote - very good note taking app
Dropbox - sync files betwwen your devices
2x Client RDP to access your Windows 7 pc (if U have) from Tab
AirDroid - manage your Tab over WiFi
Simple Calendar Widget - to get your meetings on front page.
Lockscreen Agenda - display your meetings on lock screen
IP Webcam - use tab as IP camera with audio also.

You can always update to CM9 & try the ICS experience, but it's still in development so not all features are available. Just a bit of fun for you to try if you're up for it. I had a bit of fun experimenting, but I'm not liking the fact that the theme engine isn't fully developed yet, so I think I'll be restoring back to the BOCA client.

Just to share my experience since I started rooting it a month ago
from GB 2.3.3, I flashed to Overcome, then MIUI..didnt like it (lots of issues), back to Overcome, then AOKP ICS rom, now a moment ago just back Overcome
I'll wait for a better looks and fix on AOKP then I will be back to it again. Overcome is stable and since I want to have some themes and tweak on the looks a bit, I installed Go Launcher EX, go locker etc....surf for some wallpapers to have some nice views
For now better just go for themes etc with the current rom or you may limit the installation of apps u wanna use for a long time....try out several roms to see which one u like...
PS-I wonder what's the future for our galaxy tab....esp in terms of a fully working rom..
Thanks for sharing. Im still using overcome since most of the people i asked said its one of the stable custom roms. For the adventurous a like ics for our tab is already out but am still reading on it and dont have the courage to flash my tab again hehehe

Overcome is the most stable ROM for the Tab. BOCA is pretty stable too. I haven't had any issues with MIUI, but I don't like having pages of apps with no app drawer. I do like my widgets & folders, so I will be flashing again sometime this weekend or next week...just not sure what ROM I'm going to use at this point.
With all the flashing & re-flashing I've done on my phone, I've gained some confidence in the whole process and I'm looking forward to applying onto my tab some of the new things I've learned. Modding is quite addicting...lol...I feel the same way I did when I first learned about overclocking & modding computers. Now I'm searching and reading through dev guides and tutorials to learn about ROM & app dev for androids. Mostly going to be learning for the devices I have now, like my Galaxy tab & MT4G. =)
BTW, out of curiosity, which size tab do you have? 7" or 10.1"
I got the 7" when the Galaxy tab first came on the market & T-Mobile had it for $599. Of course, I got some good deals signing up for a 2-year contract, but still paid a pretty penny for 2 phones & the tab. It would've been nice if I didn't lose my Vibrant (free phone, not eligible for insurance =\ ), then I could've had something else to experiment on...lol
Anyway, I'll post back once I get the chance to experiment on the tab more.
Using galaxy tab 7 first generation the model is p1000 though am now itching to try the newer model p6200 but performance wise i think it not really wise to upgrade yet but if ever you want to try it better to go for samsung note

Try using V6 Supercharge and install Beats Audio
If fun means more technical enhancements try these.
V6 Supercharger from Zeppelinrox. Its a script not a zip. Lots of info on the main site but just
1) down load the pdf script all the way at the botton of the page.
2) install busybox open busybox and install the latest version of busybox
3) install ScriptManager
4) run the DPF as root and read all the info in the console as the script runs
