[Q] Embedded documents viewer - RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I bricked my phone (got hit by a wave on the beach...), so I am now using an old phone.
The thing is that I liked the office document viewer (doc, xls, pdf, ...) that was included in stock roms, I just don't remember the name to download it from the store.
Can someone please help ?

Quickoffice .
But not sure you'll be able to install on a non-moto device ?

Quickoffice was bought by Google about 1-2 months ago and underwent some changes. You probably wont get the Moto-Stock-Quickoffice but the current version should work with most Android devices.

no to be harsh, but your approaching this the wrong way. You are demanding something, when what you want is already available. With a quick search, you would find out that you probably need to root your phone, then run the market enabler which will give you access to the android market. Then you will have access to various 3rd party youtube clients and map applications.
How to get appsinstaller?
thanks for the info. I have the same problem. To root this phone I need to install appsintaller for installing apk from my SD card. But I cannot find appsinstaller anywhere except from Android Market.
Indian Magic's are locked
Hey,
I was in the same position a couple of weeks back - in fact, the phone dealer advised me not to buy the Magic. Boy, was he wrong.
Unfortunately, there is no short easy way to get all applications as HTC sells a locked version of the Magic in India. You'll have to install a new version of your phone's software. I must add that, IT IS DANGEROUS and if you dont follow directions, are not comfortable with making a lot of changes, then don't. You could end up losing a phone. On the other hand, it works (I have proof) and its worth it as you get tons of applications!
The procedure I followed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548379 (please be careful in following everything). You'll need to reformat your memory card into a gold card - but everything is there in the tutorial.
For the final ROM you use, I would suggest: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=552274 In my opinion its much better than the Dream ROM.
The Sapphire Wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking) has details on what all the terms mean, and how you can update your ROMs.
Let me know when you manage to complete the update!

removed apps from market?

Hi everyone.
I'm really confused now, because several apps like pocket auctions and barcode scanner and a few more seems to be in a "cannot find it" mode, because after my factory reset on my hero, when I search the marlket it doesn't show up.
And yes, I've tried several approaches but still...nothing.
After several hours online searching, all I found was an old, buggy version of the app for ebay, wich didn't work properly, the barcode scanner seems to have vanished into thin air.
Does anyone know/experience the same?
Any solutions?
Can someone maybe post the apk file for the newest apk file?
Please reply to this, thank you.
Btw. I'm running the modaco 3.0 rom.
I too am using MCR 3.0 and I'm experiencing the same problem: can't see all apps, for example barcode scanner...
Does anyone have any suggestion?
Now I've tried downgrading my phone to MCR 2.8 without any changes to the market problem.
I installed the rooted version of the latest official htc hero software, and guess what...no luck.
I've even changed the recovery image from cyanogens 1.4 + jf to the RA-hero-v1.5.2, then installed the different roms after wiping every time.
I'm starting to think the apps has been removed from market, but since I find them on the android market website (from my puter without the download opportunity) I'm just confused.
hm no idea sorry, but you could try market enabler, which changes the country the market thinks your in! maybe they stopped showing those apps to your country or something idk but id try it! (need root which im assuming you have)
Hmmm....
I think it's the numbnuts at google that's the problem.
I have two gmail adresses, when I use nr 1 everything works fine, but with the other one the market problem really annoys me.
And even better, the second mail adress is the one I'm using on both phones and EEE puter.
The first mail adress where market shows everything, was not intended for my phones.
Yesyes, sounds like a stupid problem, but still, open source is open source, and if google somewhat had blocked my "phone's email adress" then they should call it partially random open source!
DAMMIT this pisses me off, I've used two whole days reading online to fix this.
I hope that it is another problem and not the email adress that's somewhat blocked partially from the market app.
Does anyone know if the barcode scanner and pkt auctions ebay are protected apps ?
EDIT 1:
Now I've tried using my HTC Touch Pro running the Android port lying around in here and another place
On that phone, using both my email adresses works, wich even the one that doesn't work on my hero works on the android port on the touch pro.
This is just something that frustrates me more and more, and I'm getting more and more confused now, this is REALLY weird.
Another thing is, I cannot find Market Enabler anywhere unless I wipe the phone and use another gmail adress.
I'm starting to suspect some kind of conspiracy here now !
So far I've created myself a new gmail for phone use, that is... for my android
Does any1 know if the G. guys register the mail adress in a database of some kind together with the uniqe android ID from the phone ?
I'm just trying to think outside the box here.
Since the problem with android market solves when I reset the google.apps in the settings->applications menu I guess there is some apple-like non-open source similar going on here, much like apple store and so on.
If this is not the case, please enlighten me.
And more important, please help us all with a solution to the problem.
For now whenever I want to look at apps, I have to change the gmail adress, reboot the phone and then search.
I can change the adress without booting the phone, find the "missing" apps in market but NOT install them.

List of working apps on Viewsonic G Tab

Anyone object to starting a list of apps that are confirmed working? I got my Viewsonic GTab yesterday and after spending hours rooting and reading these awesome forums it is starting to get useful. I've been hunting for install packages and had trouble finding a lot of them, but luckily I have a Droid X so I've been able to use the app market on it which has a lot more apps to choose from. Here is the list of applications I can confirm work on my ViewSonic G Tablet.. I'd love to hear what you have and what I should get for it.
Adober Reader
Android Mate
Angry Birds
Auto Memory Manager
Yahoo Fantasy Football
Gmail
Guns'n'Glory
Hearts! Free
Maps
Market
Mortplayer Music <- awesome for mp3's stored on secondary sd card
Pandora
Quickoffice
Robo Defense
Root Explorer
Skyfire
The Weather Channel
Tweetdeck
Google Voice <-- installs, but having problems getting setup complete
Hope someone finds this helpful... This gtab has so much potential, would love to see it get tons of support.
Pocket Legends: pocketlegends.com / android-download
Dolphin HD Browser
Fruit Ninja
Air Controller
Rock Player Universal
Not specifically any apps that work, other than to say that I sideloaded
FBReaderJ
to STOCK 1.01 TnT fw.
(OK I did have a minor contribution.)
Anyways, it'd be nice to list the fw that you're using and any other modifications that you may have made to it when presenting your lists. i.e. any particular extra tweaks that you had to do to get something to work, updating nVidia GPU driver, etc.
I have the zpad rom and I can't get Pocket Legends to run.

Unmound SD, install game. I have that game running on my G Tab w/o a problem
Skype
Skype app downloaded directly from free android apps website works fully on stock firmware with 11-22 update.
This site is prebookmarked in the stock web app. Many items from this free apps site are good working apps, and actually download and install with no STRESS!
Thanks to all who are helping make this tablet better.
More Apps
Kindle
Nook
Yahoo Messenger (not sure about Video App)
Sideloaded the apps via SD card (standard build).
You guys should compile these here: http://wiki.tegratab.com/index.php/Main_Page
Also, there could be lots of other stuff added if someone wants to help.
Wouldn't it be shorter to compile a list of apps that don't work? I'm on CM B4 and every app I've wanted installs. Sometimes you need to unmount SD card or some other tricks but that's a pretty short list.

Yep, I think that you've hit on the best idea, but break down the lists to the various stock(sideloaded apps) and cutom fws(either market or sideloaded) each with thir own section and notations for things that had been tried to get the app to function and the reason why it doesn't if known.
I'll add one.
Google Sky Map. Works - partially. The program doesn't detect the G tablet's compass (listed as a feature on several sites) correctly, so that when you pan down to the horizon it spins. It also doesn't rotate well when panned side to side for the same reason. This happens on all current firmware releases.
Help with loading nook and kindle apps
I purchased the viewsonic tablet on Friday and have been trying all weekend to find a way to get nook and kindle apps on my tablet. Tried a sideloader but to no avail. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
hmmmm....
When I started this thread I had only rooted my G-Tab and installed the OpenGL update. Many applications I tried to install did not work.
Since then I've installed TnT Lite 2.02 using the following thread as guidance:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
Most applications I download now work. So yes, it is probably a good idea to list the apps that DON'T work. For all those who have not installed TnT Lite or zPad or something similar, you really are NOT taking full advantage of this tablet. It is freaking awesome... and fast..
Looking forward to what future updates bring...

Just read the threads on adding the android Market...
You'll need root, and then just copy/push (however you want to do it) a few files to your phone (some in system/app, /system/lib, system/etc/permissions and system/framework).
Once you do that and and sign in to your GMail account it's little more than clearing Market data and then force closing it to get access to pretty much the full market. I installed both the Kindle app and the Nook app directly from the android Market.
The information on how is here in these forums.....check this thread

Hey guys
I'm an android Nexus One owner and I recently bought an iPad and, as expected, it is driving me crazy because it is so dumbed down.
I bought it to showcase some website layouts and as a drawing tablet to make mock-up websites while I am out. I use 2, Sketcher and Autodesk Sketchbook Mobile.
Can anyone check these apps to see how they run on a GTab?

[Q] Nook for my Tab?

Hi guys,
I am new t Android, and got a Tab a few days back. Sold my wifes Nook, which had a few books on it. I saved the ePub files (the books) from the Nook... and copied them to the Tab... However... they won't load. I think it's a DRM issue?
Is there anyway I can load the Nook Books on my Tab? I have paid for them... But they seem locked to my (sold) Nook... There is a Nook for Android app on the web market, but when I go to the Market on my Tab, the app isn't available... I think because Barnes and Noble only sell in the US.
So.. is there maybe a reader that doesn't worry about DRM, or else another plan?
i use 'Aldiko' works with ePub books for me,
also try 'LaPuta' (weird name!) both are on the market, i used both for a while, but deleted 'LaPuta' and only left 'Aldiko'
Thanks.
Tried the 'Aldiko' one, but it asks for a username/password on the DRM file, and I have no idea what u/p that would be. The books were bought from Barnes and Noble, so I tried with my b&n u/p, but no joy - incorrect username/password.
I'd like to try the B&N reader for Android. Problem is, I'm in Australia, and it's blocked from me as it's a US app only. Someone said I can download it somewhere and then 'side load' it? Is this possible? Can it be downloaded somewhere?
Google it, try for exemple "nook apk". Or you can install market enabler and set your phone to access the us android market.

Too much to learn for me!
Located it. Copied the file, using my USB cable, to my 'Downloads' file, and managed to install it (My first install!), and hey presto, my wife is now reading books!
Thanks!
Gonna look at this 'market enabler' thing though! Thanks.
Nice. You don't need to download the file on the pc first, you can download directly on your galaxy tab with the internet browser and install.
I forgot for market enabler you need to be root if I remember correctly.

Thanks again, aibo - I have so much to learn. Coming from an iPhone background... Download and save a file onto my phone?? Crazy!!

Syncing epub files across devices

Hi,
Has anyone managed to get their device to sync books read position from the nook to an android device?
There are probably a number of ways that still work. If you're only concerned with epub format then the one functioning version of Google Books (for the NST, that is) would work. I have installed that version (1.2.2) on both my NST and a small KitKat phone (sans SIM card) that I use for music/audiobooks but also take with me on trips because it is small and has a camera. The old version of Google Books works fine on it also (smaller footprint, too) and syncs just like it does on the NST. Syncing is successful with both books purchased from Google and those you upload yourself.
Thanks, coudn't get account login working on that version before but had enough go and manged to get it going.
I'm using aireader for all my epubs on my Nooks and my Android phne & tablet (6.0), and it has a reading position sync functionality that works astonishingly well. All the app needs is an email adress for the identification of your devices. If you don't mind that it is used from some russian developer's basement server ( I never got any problems with the email address I'm using), it should work for you.
Reading positions are also synced across my Kindle apps.
