[Q] HP Touchpad with Android Software - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone help me with my 32gb HP Touch pad.. I'M currently running the Cyanogen mod Kit Kat 11 on my touch pad and it seems to run really sluggish and when using the app Tango to talk to my grandchildren it puts the camera in a upside down view and no matter which way I turn its always upside down? Is there a better version etc to use to eliminate my problems? Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks

Tell them to get it. It is free and better.

This doesnt really belong in development section. This is Q&A.

a working version of skype.apk?

Does anyone have a working version of skype.apk they can post here?
Btw, i have Android 2.2 on SGT from T-mobile.
Sorry for posting in wrong category.
What's wrong with the market build?
Sent from my SGH-I987 using XDA Premium App
Are you using it? And is it version 1.0.0.983 like on the market? ppl say that video calls are not working.
Does anyone here have a fixed apk?
Does the Galaxy come with a version of Swype preinstalled??
If not then it would be considered as warez and therefore should not be posted here.
Skype. & not swype
Still Skype can be found at the market. & is working

In some countries people cannot find Skype on the Market. I'm not 100% sure but there are probably limitations... Anyway, it is easy to workaround them using MarketEnabler.

Thanks solo13. I tried and it complains "skype can not determine your phone number and will now exit."
Wait. Do I have to pre-register my tab's phone number using another skype client or their website?

will this version is sama as the market version? cus when i using my existing skype, the front camera will be freeze after a few second ... was this is because of skype compatibility issue or the Gtab software issue ? appreciate someone can help ... thanks.
Skype doesnt support video on the Galaxy tab because they claim Froyo doesnt give access to the front camera. This is BS though, because there are many other apps that do.
Try Clearsea. Works great and there is a PC client too.

I totally agree with you. A hacked version of skype works well with FFC though rotation still needs to be worked on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153285

[APP][MOD]Skype 2.0 Video Mod to work with Epic4G! (Mobile to Comp)

Skype For Android Gets Video
Widespread 3G and cheap Wi-Fi routers have made video calling popular. This has helped applications such as Fring get millions of users in very little time. To catch up with the competition, Skype has now released its version 2.0, capable of video chat for Android.
Right now, Skype 2.0 will only work on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) devices with front-facing cameras. The list of compatible devices includes the HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo, Sony Ericsson Xperia pro, and the Google Nexus S. The company is also working on a plan to cover devices that have currently been left out. The application will work with Wi-Fi as well as 3G. It reportedly supports PC-to-mobile calls, which gives it an edge over the competition. According to Skype, the app also features a completely revamped UI.
If you happen to have a Gingerbread device, download Skype 2.0 here (see original article for link) . Otherwise, check out the following video.

I have found the Market APK does not allow video then, stumbled upon this thread from the i9000 forum.
Skype 2.0 / video-call patched to work with SGS/SGS2 and many other devices!
Mad Props to theos0o
make sure to give him thanks!
Verified this working from Bonsai B12 based on EF02 leak, called a laptop video was great over 3g.
Nice, cant wait for official gingerbread even more
Sweet - this one lets me log in with 4G, the market one didn't.

Other notification options...?

Hello,
My cousin has upgraded from a feature phone to a droid 3, but she hates the way her notifications appear. What app or apps could she use to give her more options. Any recommendations?
Hello ladies and gentlemen,
I know that some of you have a lot of experience, so please drop a line or two and give me a tip. Please and thank you.
You can't really change the way notifications come in...

SMS Popup by Adam K is one of my favorites
Or a combination on Go Launcher EX and GO Notifications is cool Somewhat iphoneish
Pretty much all i know of at the moment.
Thank you, I'll pass those links along to her. Again, thank you for your time .
Android arguably has the best notification system available. Why she'd want to downgrade to archaic iOS style notifications is beyond me.

[Q] Nexus S Phone App Replacement?

I've noticed the phone/contact apps seems a little buggy on my friends Nexus S (2.3.4),
Is there some way to give my friend the phone app from my SGS2? Has anyone done this? Would it work? Would it be better or worse or?
Or does anyone have any alternative recommendations?
Well TouchPal it's great.

Good Apps For The Gear

So, I have my Gear unlocked and all with Null_ (and have had for some time) but now that the coolness factor has worn off a little, I'm kind of wondering what exactly to do with it. I am on US AT&T so I don't have bluetooth tethering (and I'm not sure my plan would support it anyway) so I'm wondering what apps others have put on their Gear that do not require internet, are not games and are worth having?
I've got a disc golf scoring app and a few live backgrounds. Really the scoring app makes it all worth it, but what else is there? Thanks for the suggestions!
I installed a calculator, calendar and to do list.... None require the internet but make the watch much more functional.

I use the basic Google calendar. The month view works fine for me. The first time I set up my Rom and bluetooth tether it imported everything I needed. Plus the widget works on the Gears favorite apps menu.

I would love to know more! I am assuming this done with a rooted customer ROM? How exactly are you setup?
What I want is to run Endo on a watch. I don't mind tethering the GPS, as my phone will be in my FuelBelt. If the Gear can make that happen. I will get that!

Either way, phone or antenna. I just want a watch that will run Endo and use GPS. It seems the Gear just might do that. Seeing as how I have a Note 2, I will have to give the Gear a serious look.
