Is there a working screenshot app for the gtablet? I tried several as well as 'adb pull /dev/graphics/fb0 C:\screenshot.rgb565', but they all result in a blank/black image.
i used ddms that is part of the android SDK
i tried both drocap2 and shootme, got the black image on both :/
I use shoot me on my galaxy tab but I rooted mine.
Shoot me only works on rooted devices.

I'm running TnT Lite v2.2.0. Anyone know of a fix?
Using DDMS from the desktop connected to ADB is the only thing I have found that works.
Would love to get this working in an app. I don't want to connect my tablet to my seldom-used-and-occasionally-borrowed laptop just to get a screen cap.
Has anyone found something that works?
Might want to follow the other thread that was started a while back, but even in that thread, there is no known way at this time except to tether and capture.

Anyone get Tango to work? I tried to install from maket. It downloads fine and then errors on install. Been trying to find an app that works between this tablet and a computer. Any one have any ideas if this one doesn't work? We already got screwed on the Skype beta front.
If I didn't see the potential in the hardware of the grab, I'd return it. So far, VS has really dropped the ball. Stock has no flash or video conferencing. Both on the box.. lol I'll stick it out and hope for the best I guess.
I've had no luck finding a usable video chat app. There's a separate thread for this.
I've tried multiple apps but none have worked...
Yahoo messenger w/ video chat works on mine running Vegan beta 3, but the webcam shows up sideways
I got Tango to work on mine, but its sideways.

Im running vegan b4 and i did a titanium backup on my increddible and then put the backup on my gtab, just apps and app data not system. Ike i said it works but the video of yourself is sideways ut besides that works great.
I mentioned in a previous thread, video calling works better with the gsensor fix. Video chat works fine with yahoo messenger atleast, and is not sideways like it was before the gsensor fix. Maybe it works better with tango.
just tried tango on my droid works awesome never knew much of the app, will give it a shot on my g tablet when i get home its running vegan beta 5 will post if it works.
Tango from titanium
Just a quick side note. If you plan on pulling it from Titanium you wont find it by searching 'Tango', you need to look for the 3 'sgiggle' files to move and restore.
I have it on my tab now but am not in a place to test. I got it to dial out, it was still sideways and died pretty quickly. I'm not too familiar with it so I'm sure it's an error on my part but I'll keep plugging away.
I can confirm Yahoo messanger with the video chat plugin works on VEGAn beta 5 orientation is fine thanks to the gsensor fix. I finally got a chance to test with someone. I don't know if it was just me or not since I only tried once, but after a minute or two I got errors but was able to hit wait and it kept going fine. Eventually I was unable to bring up menus to even exit the chat. Not even to my home screen. Had to reboot to get out of it.
Its a working option for the time being and works from android to computers. So, great option if the closing issues can be fixed.
a lot of people say they got tango to work with video showing sideways.. i see that on my screen but the person i am tangoing with just sees a blank screen... and when i hit the switch camera button it just alerts them that i am switching cameras and stays there..

Well the problem with the gtab is that we don´t have a frontal camera so scanning bar codes aint easy so I get where are you coming from, but actually the XING is the fastest bar scanner Ive seen. Works by scanning but until now I havent being able to download anything that way.
The new chat with google without having to wait for 2.3.4. But on the Gtab both screens are turned sideways This is running on Vegan Ginger, someone else test on a different rom and let me know if you have any luck.
face tbe tablet down it will turn normal
Nice find, thanks!
Running VegaN-Tab 5.1.1, works great! Thanks for finding this!!
Maybe just me, but it may have kept the g tab from falling asleep.
I installed and when i log in it goes to a white screen and says contacts at the top of the screen. Im not quite sure what to do from there or if this is an error. Anyone have any input. Im running vegan ginger rc1. Thanks.

You have to have a contact that is available to do video chat in order to see the contact.
Still can't get it to work properly with Vegan Ginger.
I was able to get it to work, although i get the sideways screen issue -- still a better substitute than having nothing...much better quality that the yahoo messenger video chat

Working on Calk's ROM
I just got this up and running on my GTab running Calk's 1.1 ROM. The picture quality is very pixellated which I assume is because it hasn't been tablet optimized. I'm really just happy that I can actually use the camera for something, GTalk no less!
Wow, Nice find! installed on my gtab running vegan 5.1, made video calls to both my PC and Evo, worked great!
Justim
Running Vegan Ginger RC1 here. The video is rotated 90 degrees on both my end and the computer feed. If it works on Vegan 5.1, I think that's reason enough to switch back to it. This is the missing killer tablet app as far as I'm concerned.
apk?
I am running stock and do not have access to the market. Can someone post the apk please to see if it works on my stock gtab?

Downgraded to vegan 5.1 and she's running perfectly now. Great find guys!
For some reason, I have about a 5 second audio delay on mine. Running VegaN-Tab 5.1.1, another guy in our office also has a gtab running the same Rom. When we tried VTok on our internal wireless network we got the delay. Haven't tried it on any other system yet.
Anyone else seeing this behavior or have a suggestion for fixing it?
Anyone have this running well on a Gingerbread release?

I wouldn't try to get much of anything to work on a stock G-tab. You need to just go ahead and bite the bullet and install VegaN 5.1 at least. If you stick with the stock ROM you will ALWAYS have problems getting apps that everybody else gets with no problem. If you follow the instructions here at XDA you will get full market access too so there is no downside.
Vtok looks and sounds interesting, but the fact that none of my contacts show up (even though I know they have video set up) tells me that maybe everybody must have Vtok for it to work, like skype, tango, etc. ?

That isn't, or shouldn't be the case. I gave it a spin last night and was able to connect to someone on normal PC Laptop. The person you want to chat with has to be able to use video at that moment or they won't show up in this app. Not intended to be rude, just to give it a little highlight so other's don't miss it and ask the same things later.
I had the same VEGAn Gingerbread issue with the camera rotation, but i've seen that on pretty much every device i've used any video chat on that was geared to be landscape by default.
Video quality was very low, but i'll blame that one a bad internet connection till I have somewhere a little better to test with. Hopefully this is updated to work a little better in the future since it's the most widely usable option outside of Skype(which is still holding onto that video chat function from most of us) or Yahoo(plugin needed for Android), but Yahoo seems to only work for a minute or two before it pretty much destroys the stability of my tablet till I reboot... lol

This is a complete lie!!!
You can install Android Market on a stock firmware, and have access to all of the apps that a custom firmware has access to. Don't give advice if you don't know what you are talking about!
Now that this is out...will this be able to work for the Eris, or no cause we have arm6?
I got it to load and start streaming but no sound or audio and the time stayed the same. Restarts after a bit. Hadn't tried changing the build.prop yet though. No pc around. Some folks say it works on original Droid though.

Netflix on the Eris
Here's an interesting one. I tried to download the apk to my Coby 7015 tablet. It immediately downloaded the apk to my Eris. Go figure.
Installed fine and loads up. When I start a video, I get a dark screen with the "pause - fast forward" control bar at the bottom then it goes back to the netflix home screen. No audio. No video.
Logcat shows: D/TAG ( 3163): Not Android 3.x+ with drm.play.
I'm in the same boat on Gingerbread. Black screen with controls and then it eventually resets to home screen.
I downloaded the apk off of google, it installed fine and it brings everything up, but when i try to play something all i get is a message saying "the netflix service is not available on your device. please check netflix.com/netflixreadydevices for info regarding support for your device"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13731077#post13731077
That's the APK.
Buildprop info here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13732556&postcount=163
I'd say just wait for a full hack.
I just edited the build.prop using this http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/ha5oh/root_how_to_edit_your_buildprop_to_make_netflix/
so far, the app runs, and it looks as if its going to start streaming, but i just get a black screen with the pause botton. Idk if wifi will work ill try it when I get some, its on 3g now.

but do u think for the eris it will come and still have the support being as its an old model?
The Eris will never have official support from Netflix. Basically, there's a set of DRM libs baked into the officially supported phones. These hacks are attempting to trick the app into thinking the phone is a supported phone with supported DRM libs. However, it's not working on the Eris even with the build.prop mods. I'd like to see a logcat of the problem, but I really believe it has to do with the DRM libs not being satisfied and possibly crashing media libs like most older devices.
I'm waiting for somebody to just package a fake build.prop and DRM spoof into a modified Netflix app. I'm sure it can be done, I just don't know what the Netflix servers check the app for. MD5 and DRM version?
I can't even get the apk to install. I've downloaded it, but I get no option to install it from astro or from the downloads menu on the browser. How do you install this damn thing? I even downloaded app installer, but it doesn't seem to recognize it as a valid apk.
Works fine for me. The only thing is that the app itself is massive compared to all the other ones I have. Due to the fact that it sucks down a lot of memory and power, I think I'll be fine with the Netflix app on my iPod/iPad/Xbox/laptop/whathaveyou

Seconded. I've tried 2 different ways both editing and not editing the build.prop
no dice on either, just the "black screen with pause button" tease, on both WIFI and 3G. Also tried on 2 other Eris' (erisii?? lol) with same results, one running XTRsense, and 2 running GSB 3.3
so what ROM are you on, what did you do specifically to enable streaming vid?
I third that. On gsb 3.3 and my dice are also missing. Netflix is the only reason why I would ever get rid of my eris

Has anyone managed to get Photosphere working on the 8.9 yet?
I've installed the modified app which doesn't require build.prop edits and the lib files which are supposed to work but using the Photosphere section just results in a crash after the first shot.
From everything I've found so far, photo sphere isn't working for anybody that doesn't have official 4.2, aka Nexus users. I could be wrong though.

I've seen people say it is working on the S2 and the S3 and I have got it working on my S1 (It doesn't have a gyro so it doesn't 'work' as such, but there is no crash like there is when I try on the 8.9).
Also, it's not your standard FC. The app works fine until it takes the first shot then vanishes immediately no matter what. The app is still functional in the half a second time between the first shot and the disappearance.
I can post a logcat if anyone thinks they could improve on this.
