I'm trying to listen to my favorite radio station from my childhood, but can only get them on Radio.com. If I listen in the browser window, I can't do anything else on my Nook, as the music stops when I leave the browser window.
Radio.com is available for free in the Market, but Nook Tablets aren't compatible. Does anyone have an APK I could sideload?
Thanks!
10 minutes on Google etc. yielded this link. http://www.umnet.com/download-software/15939-Radiocom_v10_Free
Thanks! I spent quite a bit of time on Google last night, looking for this, and was only able to find it on FirstLoad, but they wanted my credit card information to download it.
Pls let us know if it installs and performs to your liking.
It installed fine and runs, but stops playing after a little while. Not sure yet if it's a connection issue or an app issue. I'm using my wifi at work, which isn't always reliable. I'll know better when I try to use it at home.
I'll update this weekend.
UPDATE: So, I'm thinking it's definitely a connection issue, as it's been playing now for a couple of hours with no hiccups. I'm pleased, because I'd read really horrible things about it. As it's the only game in town for listening to WCBS-FM in NYC, though (and I'm in Albany), I had to try it. Glad I did. Thanks again!
UPDATE 2: 4:00 PM, and still going strong. Awesome!
Does anybody have the apk file available without having to download and install "download manager?"
I didn't have to download that, and I don't even know what it is. Per the instructions at the page listed above, I went to m.umnet.com and entered 615939 in the code field.

Thanks, that took care of it. I transfered to the SD card and installed with Root Explorer (which I use to browse eventhough my NT isn't rooted). When I view files this way, I'm given the option to install. Looking at it through the NT My Files doesn't give an install option.
I got it installed and all it does is force close. 1.4.0 rooted.
Using Tune In Radio and it works well.

I loaded it and it runs fine. When I try and download an app it starts then immediately says failed and a box that advises me to check my one click setting and try again. It appears to be comparing my one click setting phone number with my device but my gtab does not have a phone number? Anyone get it to work or seen this?
TIA
Yep, works and even updates itself. Your one-click settings are part of your Amazon account, and need to be set from their website.

Ya I did that and turned one click on but it wanted a phone number. I put in my home number but still seem to get the same error. I even turned both one clicks on with the same result. I'll keep playing with it...
Thanks
Do you have an Android phone that you can install from first? The app was designed with phones in mind, so that might be the issue.

No I sure dont. I think that is part of the problem. Was wondering if there was anyone in the same boat as me that got it to work. The Amazon site gives away freebies all the time so I wanted to take advantage of that.
Thanks
need to be install on phone first
yes it DOES work on the gtab
but you need to download it on a phone first, and after that you will have to setup your 1click setting and you will be good to go.

Yes the freebies are nice. You might be able to do some hoop-jumping with SIP and all of that crap, but I doubt it.
I have a phone with the Amazon app, so i made a separate Amazon account for my gTab. Helps keep the two separate, as I want different apps on my phone than my gTab.
If you don't have a phone, I believe you can enter an email address and do it that way.
Don't need a phone
I don't have an android phone and have a stock ROM on my gtab. The amazon app store is working great. I don't think it ever asked me to enter a phone number.
I gave it my email, they sent a direct link to the APK, downloaded and installed. Then went in to amazon a/c and turned 1-click ON. That was it. I have installed numerous apps and they work (except 1 or 2 which I guess were meant for a phone).
No phone here either and Amazon market works for me on Vegan.

That's how I did it as well. It asks for a phone number OR an e-mail address. Just provide your gmail address and you'll receive the e-mail on the g-tab (if it's set up as your default account) download the APK, install, and it should work fine.
I have Chainfire, and I have the APK but I have no idea how to get the extra game data to download. I tried changing my build prop but that didnt help. Does anyone know how to make it download the data or where I can download the data. Every Google search I did returned downloads for the data but they all said the files had been deleted.
It works for me now with the new update from the game.

Not sure if this will help, but this is how i was able to get it to work.
If you (or anyone you know) has an android phone, install the apk. to the phone. Update the app if it isnt already updated. Donwload the data. Then, move the data from the phone SD card to your Nooks SD Card. It should be saved under Android-data-com.eamobile.nfsshift_na_wf.
I will say that after I did this, i had to reset my Nook to get the app to notice the data, but it works fine now.
Hope that helps.

This is because his phone has a PowerVR (like the NC) gpu while yours probably has a qualcomm or nvidia. You need the correct type of sd card data.
I bought this an was really enjoying Shift until I had to re-image the NC.
Now, I have an odd issue. In the Market, I can't even see NFS Shift. However, on my other NC, I can see NFS Shift and can download again if needed.
How do I get my re-imaged NC to see it in the Market to re-download?
Thanks!

The android market is a fickle thing. I flashed the same ROM (CM7n253) to multiple Nooks. Only one of them won't allow me to download Google Earth because it's "incompatible." The only difference between the devices is that I assigned them unique IMEIs. I put "Blood and Glory" on my NC and I was going to put it on the others only to find that it doesn't show on the market. Checked market website and sure enough it's listed as "incompatible". Checked my NC and now it's listed as "incompatible" too. Good thing it's a free app, I just titanium backed it up and loaded it on the others. I really wish android market had an advanced mode where you could ignore it's "compatibility" settings.
I'd also like to have a way to gift games (a la steam) cause I would have bought a lot more at the holiday sale if I could have just emailed the codes or had it open on their markets.
apk and data from a Droid X
I installed the apk from my Droid X (which I purchased) along with the data but when I attempt to start the game I get an error message that says "Error (Airplay v4.3.10 [2599558]) S3E_DEVICE_PHONE_NUMBER: This device don't have a phone number!".
Thoughts anyone?
UPDATE: The game starts after I click off that error message. However, even though the game will see the data from my previous game play from my Droid X (money, experience points, etc) it still displays the message "If you want to purchase the full game." even though the copy off of my Droid X was purchased. It also doesn't let me change tracks either so I'm stuck on the Tokyo one.
I have a rooted Nook Tablet. I subscribed to Wired Magazine in Dec. and downloaded the first month (Dec) of the magazine with no problems. When this months (Jan) issue came out I tried to download it, but it now says that the magazine can only be read on a "Nook Tablet or Nook Color 1.4". So some how it now thinks I don't have a Nook Tablet. I have not messed with the "build.prop" file. Anyone know of a work around?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I can't archive because it won't let me download it in the first place. Just for further information, it also says "Sorry, this content is currently not supported on this Nook, Visit nook.com/tablet/support for ...". Like I said, it appears that it is identifying this Nook Tablet as something other than what it is.
Thanks again
I have the same problem with Time magazine. I recently changed folder permissions to move my Go Launcher apk into the /system/app folder. This was recomended in another thread to allow widgets to remain after a reboot. I also made a folder in /data to store various media. I put a short cut on my desktop. I wonder if you've done anything similar. Perhaps those actions caused the magazines not to download. For what it's worth, i had no problem getting earlier issues and i have an unrooted nook color that downloaded the magazine with no problem.
I get time also, but I haven't done anything fancy since rooting and it still works.

I had the same issue. I downloaded the book to my pc, then put in in my dropbox. when i went to open it on the tablet. it asked for the name and card number i used to buy the book with. then it open and I could also perform downloads again normally.

Mine wasn't working either... it was installed as soon as I logged into my google account and all my apps from my SGS2 were funneled onto the TPrime. It kept crashing out as soon as launched.
I ended up just searching the market for it and re-installing it seemed to do the trick. The menus are choppy as hell but it works.

In the tablet settings enable something like "force hardware acceleration." I think it is in the developer section. If you can't find it, I can look at it latter and give a better explanation. That should speed up the scrolling.

Try a service like Entropay. Create a credit card with a US address and use it for Netflix.
they want scan of my ID, passport and driving licence got email immediately after registering there.
ive ran out of ideas, guess i will give up on it but thanks for help
----
edit: IT WORKS ) ive registered with my real slovakian address and credit card, they asked me to send them ids, so i did. After about an hour my virtual card was OK. And it was accepted by netflix without problem... what an awesome stuff youve got there in US im impressed. (btw hulu doesnt work)
thanks for highjacking my thread....guess i'll never get my netflix working...woe is me
If you are rooted and own titanium backup you could try freezing the app and installing the one from the market which should install as a data app instead of a system app.
Have you tried clearing the data/cache in the app setting by going settings>apps and scrolling to netfix? I can't recall the exact location since I am at work.
Does it give the same status even if you don't have any updates installed?
ive tried many netflix apps, but this one works for sure. try it, maybe it will work for you too. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20911810/Netflix_1.6.0.apk
When i try to install the above apk, i get an error message that says an existing app with a conflicting signature exists...which makes sense asi am unable to uninstall the original netflix. Seriously im having a hard time believing im the only one experiencing ts problem?
OP are you rooted? Uninstall the netflix update, then try deleting the Netflix.apk from /system/app with root explorer, reboot, reinstall netflix from the market.
have you done a factory data reset since you upgraded to ICS? I had a lot of quirky bugs right after I upgraded but thy all disappeared with a wipe. Asus really should have included that as part of the upgrade.
anyways, google can backup your apps if you let it, so all you have to do is re-define your settings. I was done and ready to go within an hour of my wipe.
hopefully you dont have to do that but that will probly fix it. good luck!
Agree, a factory reset can fix all kinds of software issues and with Google App Backup it is easier than ever to recover.

It works perfectly, but I can't associate my gmail account and no I have not access to the official google play.
I have read that I can solve it changing some parameters in ES Explorer (r-r-r), but I can do it ONLY if my device is root.
Is there any way to root it? does anyone have this device?

Hey how is the device? How is the wifi speeds? I had a lesser known brand that over all worked pretty good but the wifi speeds were horrible. Download speeds capped at around .25 mbps! Not even close to 1mbps. Uploads were about double that. I hope its not the same with this one. Do you use a sim card on it?

I have the same issues apparently it is an issue with google's not being allowed in china.

And being from the US i Specifically asked would google would be implemented and i was told google play was already pre-configured and that is where i was sold and also where i was suckered. so let me tell you having bought the bloody thing i sought help first with the nearby stores and as soon as i mentionned the device and where it was purchased .... I got sorry but you know it's the chinese so i decided let me go to the nearest chinese community and i specifically said chinese simplified Han to be exact and you wouldn't believe what came out of their mouth .... CHINESE Sooorrryy ...

No SuPPort the devices on google listed devices that being read the closest match to my device are phone lenovo P700 and A2105, A2107 and A2109 and off all these am not sure cause LEnovo won't support it as well so one look at google also states that they do not support it so the only way i see me get it around it is by changing the internal files so that the phone or google thinks that i'm one of the approved listed device funnily enough i can get apps off amazon and it recognizes it as Android JXD P1000 and Yantex as well but you need to stop speaking chinese and go into russian. Btw another issue you will have is getting the drivers that would allow you to work with your PC. I did find it but now I am scared to root cause i don't know how to do it and afraid to have a 200 dollar brick. So lesson learned i give myself less than 3 months to get it straight otherwise i will leave with its shortcomings but i will definitely champion never EVER EVER buy chinese devices cause #1 misleading #2 support non-existing #3 not worth its weight especially when their own countrymen is telling me sorry its chinese ... that is when i totally felt like an idiot ... so unless you hear me fix that issue please stay away from that device cause until they fix my issues i will warn everyone to stay far from it.

Do not worry, we have a solution!!
Finally I entered the JXD website and I downloaded the latest firmware for the device.
Inside the file are the instructions to update the tablet and drivers to connect to the pc, but I did not work for me these drivers, so I had to look for other drivers on the Internet (I have no permissions to paste links, I have very few messages in this forum)
I hope this can help you. At least my JXD P1000 is already running at 100% with all Google applications.
Good luck!!

I just followed the steps in the downloaded file (word document). It's very simple. Sure is better explained that if I try to explain, because my English is not good and it is possible that I confuse someone.
Only one possible problem ... If your pc does not detect the tablet with the drivers provided by JXD, then as I said, you have to look on the internet: Simply search on google "mt65xx android phone drivers"

I try to download the firmware, JXD English, but I can not do
how to install the play store on my tablet or switch to root mode, Please
I also have bought a JXD P1000 in Vietnam. It looks working almost perferctly except GPS.
Problem I had in using GPS is, the satellites are caught but the present location won't be fixed forever.
So google map doesn't show exactly where I am, and it's useless at this moment.
I found similar problems in tablets using MTK6877(?) posted in other bbs. MTK6877 is said to be a brother cpu to this MTK8377.
The solution introduced in that BBS was to put a file named GPS.prop(?) into under /system folder. But it needs root.
So, what I want to say is, are there anybody facing a similar GPS problem?
Or other help or suggestions are appreciated.

I don't have software to test the GPS
i have only firmware( w w w .jxd.hk/download.asp?id=1168&selectclassid=020001) but I don't know what to do
I just recieved mine and so far i like it. My gps wasnt working but i got it to work. My only problem right now is the wifi. Anybody having problems with the wifi with the tablet is in sleep mode. I changed the setting to always stay on but it keep breaking. The symbol is on but no internet connection is going through until i turn off wifi and turn it back on. So far i notice it when i leave it alone for a while, not instantly. I havent done the update yet and hopefully that fixes this problem but if it doesn't, anybody has any ideas. Im also trying a wifi lock app but doesnt seem to be working.

As for me, I didn't realize that wifi problem with JXD. It might be because of using power saving apps.
And how did you get the gps to work?

Well i havent downloaded any power saving apps. Well now the gps is spotty. It was working fine for a while but suddenly stopped. I used the gps status and tools app (i think thats how it is called). Also messed with the native gps settings. The wifi problem im having also happens when im using it as well. So basically at any moment it can happen. Very annoying.

GPS never worked i still can't access the up grades
I have had for 2 months no GPS can't get to upgrade now cause i get this message
BROM Errors : S_COM_PORT_OPEN_FAIL (1013)
[COM] Failed to open COM 3
[HINT]:
Possible reason:1. If you use UART1 to download DA, please make sure that you have selected the correct UART1 COM port first!2. USB driver is abnormal, please restore them, and then try again.
wifi is non-issue only problem in general the tech support are the following
UMITABLETS: once sold they don't care
MEDIATEK: they are not the reseller THEY DON"T CARE LOLOLOOLOO
JXD: sent an email while i was just trying to get the right driver for mediatek welll they never answered me so it adds up as THEY DON"T CARE
i don't know if anyone is getting the jist they sold ir i feel like a sucker and THEY DON"T CARE
so my advice and i will blog it especially sine my patience is running thin i will blog about it and advise people not to buy from or their product

I got the upgrade done yesterday. What i did is first connect the tablet to the computer, for the first time, and have it automatically install the drivers, once successful, i chose to install the ones provided in the upgrade file in the jxd website. I got an error saying it wasnt installed proerly on one of them but when i reconnected the tab it connected fine. So i decided to go on with the upgrade process from the word doc in the zip file. Pretty simple like the other person said on this thread, though i did try like 2-3 times before it began. Once it started was smooth sailing. The upgrade made the tab better. Gapps work fine, except i cant install google shopper for some reason. Everything else is pretty stock android with all the google services working. I have yet to see if the upgrade restores gps, so when i do test it out pretty well they ill give my results.
Update on my wifi problem: it seems it is only happening on my portable hotspot only. While on my home wifi it is solid good. When im out and about, it keeps disconnecting from my personal hotspot. Any ideas why that would be?

JXD P1000 - Purchased from Pandawill.com
Hello!
I am having same issues with Google Play, can't sync with or install Gmail. I was able to load the .apk file for Google Play but it fails to launch. Google maps and navigation will not work, and device is unable to determine my location. I was able to find .apk files on the net for Mozilla and Facebook and have those working, but I really need access to Google Play Store.
I was able to download the PC drivers from the JXD website, and now my Windows 7 PC will detect the device.
I tried to update the firmware from the JXD site but says that one of the files is not compatible.
Customer service at Pandawill is unable to resolve the situation and will not authorize a refund.
Is there a way to root this device or install any Google apps?
Mant thanks!

I cant say why it is not happening right but for you but i can briefly say what i did. I started by downloading the upgrade from the website. I then connected the tablet to the computer and let the system automatically install the drivers. After the sucessful notice i extracted the zip file i downloaded off the website. I installed the drivers from the file. Both driver folders. Both of them had an error after installing them but windows asked if i wanted to reinstall them (or fix the install) using there recommended method. I chose yes for both. Let it finish and whatever the result i closed it and continued ( dont remember if it came out ok or an error again). With all the errors in the beginning of installing the drivers in the folders i check to see if the computer would still recognize the device and surely it still did. Now i went in follow the instruction from the word document in upgrade section. One thing you will have to do i extract another file from within the folders. Its the same on that the instructions says to chose in the program, one of the first steps. Look for it and extract it or else you wont be able to choose it in the program itself. I had problems in the step where you had to turn off the device and connect the device to the computer via usb so the program can detect it. It didnt ork the first time, nor the second time when i disconnectednitnand reconnected it. i closed the program and restarted it. This time it detected it and i just continued as the instructions said. All came out fine with all of Google's services working including play store. Its full fledged tablet now and better then when i first recieved it.
I was having trouble with wifi connection ( internet connection) not sticking with my hotspot only but i think i got a way for it to work. I read that some tablets have similar problems. They were able to fix it by using a static ip instead of the dynamic one. I tried different ones until i found one that stuck. Now it stays connected all day. Its still under testing to see if it is a complete solution or temp fix. Though im liking the results. You with have to check the router settings to see the range of ip's it uses and just chose different one from in there. Thats the only thing i changed. Hope any of this helps as of right now there is no known root method's.

I purchased an AT&T sim card from Straight Talk to use with the JXD P1000. I am able to make phone calls and send/receive text messages, however, the data is extremely slow. Looks like I am only getting 2G speeds as the indicator light shows "E" for Edge.
Does anyone know of any settings to speed up the data? The device works great when connected to Wi-Fi, but I was hoping to use the sim card for data when Wi-Fi is not available.
Many Thanks!
