Amusing "Failure".... - Nook Color General

Loaded up the new beta for Firefox on my NC... Hit a YouTube link just for fun. It tells me I need to update Flash. I follow the link to update Flash....
"Flash Player not available for your device.
Apple restricts use of technologies required by products like Adobe Flash Player."
I did some /rofl thought I would share the amusement.

Opera Mini
Skyfire (don't work yet)
NetFront 3.4
NetFront 3.5
in my program menu i have the flash player installed but when i open a website where there is a flash content thet page say that i haven't flash player installed on device
how can i resolve this issue?
Many Thanks
Re
Do you've got flash lite or flash 7 installed. Its a big difference. You should install flash 7 for example. I've got it hosted on mij site for a direct download:
http://www.htcdriver.com/ in tools, under the download section....
beware that the flast 7 is very hungry, it will draw plenty of processing power.
I have Opera Mobile 8.65 isnatlled with the Adobe Flash PLayer 7 Plug-in installed. When i go to websites with embeded flash, it says i must get the adobe flash player.
Is there something i am missing?
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

SINCE 4.0 No video

When i had open touch 3 i could go to the list of sites page in my phone go to youtube or anyother site and download a video and play it from my phone. but i cant with open touch 4.0 biggy even tho i have downloaded and installed the flash video bundle cab from the first page of the open touch 4.o release page, when i download a file it wont play in the TCMP player, it says file not supported or something of that nature, even tho i used to download and watch videos all the time when i had opentouch 3.0
And yes i have searched the forum and and posted in the issues thread to no avail.
You cannot just install the flashvideobundle cab. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=FlashVideoBundle
Follow the instructions on the page. You must install the version of tcpmp first, soft reset, then install flash video bundle. Then it will work. Keep in mind though that you will have 2 versions of tcpmp on you phone after doing this. Good luck
Well that answers that question... thanks!

[How to] Install Google Maps 3.1.1 for Phones That are Unable to Install from Market

Hi everyone, for those of you who are running custom firmwares, you may have noticed that Google has released a new version of Google Maps, version 3.1.1 . However, when trying to update from the market, users will get an error during installation saying that the package wasn't signed correctly. Here is how to fix that.
First off, have your phone connected to your computer. You will need a command prompt open for this.
ADB shell
rm /system/app/GoogleMaps.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download and install Google Maps 3.1.1 from here
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?onh4zh5a0bl
Install the file through your preferred method, either that be through ADB, a file manager or this neat little program created by Modaco here: http://android.modaco.com/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=32963
When installation is complete, which shouldn't take more than 30 seconds or so, reboot your phone.
Now, open up Google Maps. You should notice that it actually opens (in some ROMs it may not, I am using Haykuro 6.0.1). However, when searching or pretty much using any functions, the application will force close.
Go to the Android Market and search "maps" and download Google Maps, which should be the first one that comes up. Once installation has completed, which should be successful this time, open up Maps and try to use the Search function. It will result in a force close. Leave it closed and return to the market and uninstall Maps. Once it is uninstalled, reinstall it again. This time, it should work. Enjoy!
Here is a little review of the program from a link posted in the official Google Maps thread.

Define "full function". If you mean, can you upgrade to Ubuntu 12, no. If you mean, can you run Unity, no. If you mean being able to to almost everything you would do on a regular PC running Ubuntu, yes. Granted there is no support for NTFS drives or DVD burners and things of that sort but look at the software list. Short of playing Halo, it covers over 90% of what people use a computer for.
Here's a list of what I use it for;
Web browsing (posting this using webtop)
Watch movies (pretty much any flash video site works)
Watch Hulu (no app needed and am infact watching Hulu right now)
Listen to music (local or streaming)
Create and edit documents, speadsheets, powerpoint
Near Photoshop level of image editing
Edit audio files
ROM work
Chat
Torrents
Gaming (both linux games and using emulators)
Website updates and maintenance
Writing and editing scripts
What I can't do with it or haven't tried yet;
SBF flashing (haven't tried)
Working in ADB and fastboot (haven't tried)
Watch Netflix (there's an app for that)
Run a current version of Chrome or Firefox (this only has Firefox 8 right now)
Kernel compiles (make is a bit old in ubuntop)
I hope this helps.

Thanks for your hard work with this.
After installing - firefox will not connect to the internet - despite rebooting to recovery and wiping the cache
Please can you help
PS. webtop2sd does not detect my sd card either so I cant enable the other apps on my atrix

"webtop2sd is required for Atrix users because there is only 1.3MB free space otherwise"
First hit up the webtop2sd thread to figure out what's up because with it working, Ubuntop won't work.
Thanks for your post! It is good to see that there are WebTop developers
I have a question : what is the difference between your UbuntuTop and a customized webtop2sd WebTop ? (I have webtop2sd with gnome 2.0)
Still no luck!

Hi
Looks like the rom (NottachTrix4G - AIO Aroma Installer 1.3.1 [2.3.6][Blur][Multi-Lang]) was incompatible with webtop2sd
Have installed
[GB-ROM] [2.3.6] [Bell/INTL] [45.21.78] Tweaked Stock Blur With Webtop [Jun11]
webtop2sd now setup
have followed your instructions to the letter - but firefox will still not connect.
have rebooted and wiped cache too.
Now stuck!
Any help appreciated!
I've been using webtop2sd with NottachTrix since its introduction. On the last fresh install, I had to relink busybox in the /etc/webtop2sd directory.

I have the same question, and is it faster (like Gentop tries to be).
Also, do I need webtop2sd for the install, or can I install this to the internal partition first then move it with webtop2sd? Can I use my sd partition to extend certain directories to get more space (again like Gentop) instead of mirroring everything (like webtop2sd does).

Unsure as to how similar our problems are, but my Firefox stopped working after I flashed to a CM9 ROM then returned to Nottachtrix again.
Ultimately I used Atrix Fastboot Tool to erase the Webtop partition then flashed a stock webtop through CWM. Perhaps try that and then install UbunTop.
Lots of questions so let me try to get everything answered.

First this is a unified base so you don't think of it as Atrix Ubuntop vs Electrify Ubuntop vs Photon Ubuntop. You have to think of it as Moto Tegra2 Ubuntop (I'm thinking I should rename it that). File for file it is the exact same as what's run on the Electrify and Photon. Advantages of a unified base are many. As long as I can get it to fit inside that 755MB cap the Atrix has, ANY tweaks or improvements made by ANYBODY in Moto Tegra2 community can be applied. Granted approval on both sides and proper credit will apply. The other advantage is that any major updates (like Ubuntu 10,11,12) that I can cram into that 755MB automatically become usable to all the Moto Tegra2 Webtop users!
The other main difference is that all the flashing and scripts to get to an unlocked webtop with synaptic and custom dock/desktop are already done. When you install OpenOffice what do you do? You launch synaptic, search for openoffice then go through and select packages. In Ubuntop, you launch synaptic, click file/read markings and select the openoffice file in the software folder. Take all the software listed in the OP, that's installed by selecting one preconfigured markings file. There are also things like over 150 config edits to Firefox alone that are permanent, a lot of moto crap has been removed.
To compared to what you probably have setup, Ubuntop will get you there far faster and with less time in terminal. In short, far more average user friendly. User friendly has been my goal since Ubuntop launched back in September of last year because Moto really screwed up what could have been an amazing product. Read this and you will understand my motives behind this.

Ubuntop was deved on that very ROM. I do have a fix so I'm going to amend the install method for the Atrix in the OP. The install method should now be;
Flash Univ_Ubuntop_v1.0.0.zip via CWM
Reboot
*Atrix Users-Run webtop2sd
Launch Webtop+
Reboot into recovery and flash menupatch.zip
Relaunch Webtop+ and enjoy!

Right now I'm trying to get everybody on the same webtop base (WT-1.2.0-180) for the reason stated above. It does have a number of improvements over stock but has yet to be fully optimized. As nice as Gentop2 is, it's far larger than Ubuntop and has files spread all over the phone and SDCard. Try this and tell me how it goes;
Ignore any CWM backups you may have
Ignore your computer
Perform a factory reset (or format preinstall when ROM flashing)
Try to launch Gentop2
Try the same with Ubuntop (all that's needed is webtop2sd and the menupatch.zip to get you up and running again)
So Ubuntop's other main advantages are survivability after factory reset and install/distribution method.
(I have offered to make Gentop2 flashable and even provided a template.zip but have not heard back. I may make it flashable and simply give him the file. Yes I give dev work away, a lot actually.)
If you want to play with splitting up Ubuntop feel free but I have not done so for the reasons stated above.
I hope you guys are submitting this to portal because if THIS can make it the is no reason why Ubuntop can't.
Would we need to delete webtop2sd if we already have it installed or can we just flash and boot into webtop?

Open webtop2sd and go to the "execute" tab and click uninstall.
Unmount your sdcard and format it.
Reboot the phone and launch webtop2sd and treat it as if you had never run it before.
How to set up Pidgin for GTalk and mastashake57's Webtop Exchange email (untested) added to the OP
I'm tempted to try this, but I have one major motivation in trying it.
Will it run a modern version of Chromium? My current webtop setup has an unbearably slow Firefox and due to a few outdated packages required to get webtop to boot, the newest version of Chromium that I can install from synaptic or otherwise without breaking my webtop is version 4. It crashes constantly, but it's still considerably faster than Firefox, despite the crashes.
What's the latest version of Chromium that Ubuntop can run on the Atrix?

Define "unbearably slow". If you can give me some raw data it would be a big help.
I need to know Kernel/ROM (any additional settings,changes), addresses of test webpages, webpage load time, sunspider bench and so on. I will then duplicate your tests and post results.
The supported Chrome version is going to be the same.
Also if it helps. On the Photon running Joker/Imperium at 1.2GHz running Photon UbunTop v1.2, page loads and sunspider scores were about the same as the Dell mini 10 Z530 1.6GHz running firefox/safari/chrome. Testing was done back in Feb/Mar 2012. To be honest, the Dell mini 10 and similarly spec'd netbooks are a good indicator as to performance in many areas. Considering that Moto used a generic Ubuntu Jaunty ARM base from 2009, I'm surprised it performs as well as it does.

Where are the download files, i dont see them on the site

Question Would Anyone kind enough to upload the .appx package for the Samsung Notes Windows 10 app?

My Samsung device just broke and I need access to my notes for uni I would really appreciate if someone could upload the installation file so that those of us without samsung laptops can download it.
The Samsung Notes app is available for free in the Microsoft Store here: https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9NBLGGH43VHV and for those of us without samsung laptops It says it is incompatible and Microsoft got rid of all other loopholes to download it.
You can find a guide here on how to extract the .appx installation file: https://www.maketecheasier.com/download-appx-files-from-windows-store/
Here is a previous XDA thread that was posted here which is why I am reposting, the link is dead and If someone is able to upload this, I will ensure it stays hosted whether via torrent or cloud storage
Edit: Samsung Notes is available on Lenovo and other laptop brands, but mainly is only available to download for sammy books
For those who care, I have found something interesting. This was posted on the Samsung Community forums and I would assume any company providing forum services for all their services, I figure that company would highly regulate what gets posted on there.
Well here's a post from 11.2020 where a stud linked a drive upload of the appx. I assume it to be safe there's no samsung disclosure or policy thrown in your face on that link lol. Installing now, virus scan found nothing. Will update when installed and updated
