Have installed igo8 fin no issues runs great, apart from the voices are glitchy, stuttery, thought it was the class 2 card i was using but after using class 6 still same problem, anyone any ideas, new to andriod, didnt have this problem with win mobile, using standard firmware shipped with phone, please help its the only good sat nav for android in my opinion. also on win mobile when connected to pc you would get internal storage and sd storage, but when connecting arc i only see sd storage and when i select mass storage i dont get anything.
Where did u get it from?

The same problem here. A few people running gingerbread on other devices were reporting this issue and somebody found out that the cause is audio buffer overflow. Maybe future rom updates will fix the problem... maybe not.
On X10 igo8 is slow but the voice is ok. On Arc it's much faster but the voice is jerky. Looks like we can't have them both... yet
is this fixed in 2.3
i'll answer myself.... no it's not just tried
Motonav runs perfectly, and supports the igo maps
same problem with motonav voice navigation choppy have tried it on other phones running android 2.3.3 and it seems it's android causing the problems audio buffer overflow.
on my arc igo8 works great.no problems...
this is a known problem with android so how can it be working ok, without choppy voice
iGO 8
there u have igo app v8.4.2.139242,good working on my arc,u just need to create folder igo with maps on sd card.
will try, thanks
error, program application database cannot be found
you must have a good copy of this and a sound igo folder on sd what res does it run at, do you have the data.gro file, could you also post a youtube vid if possible.
for me this aplication works good,i have replaced data.gro file with resolution for an arc.i upload for you an entire folder iGO from my sd card,without maps etc.included voices.just unpack and copy this folder for your sd card,copy downloaded maps to map directory, then run app.sorry no video.thanks
sd card iGO folder link: http://www62.zippyshare.com/v/1381334/file.html
thank you im about to try it.
works great like the rest, BUT still navigation voice is chuppy stuttery, trying to edit sys.txt see if i can fix it. thanks anyway, the voice on yours is def not choppy or stuttering.
definitely works good,i dont know how and why but is alwright
thanks for the help but gave up on this. are you running android 2.3.3
Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100) with Android 2.3.3, I have the same issue with choppy voice. About the suposed Android buffer overflow problem, I was wondering how on earth this happens only with iGO? All the other navigation apps I've tried (or any other app using sound) does not have this issue.
there is no voice on that folder,can you upload it again and i will check to my galaxy s i9003.
thanks

I think these app problems are due to Ice Cream Sandwich, not the Galaxy Nexus, and the developers of the apps just need to tweak them, mark them as ICS compatible and then send out the update.
The apps which are unavailable from the market, haven't been marked as compatible with ICS... so the market wont show you them.
I don't think that app availability/problems would cause delay of feature in Verizon testing.

Well, it's not really a leak since the source is available - the XBMC guys have chosen not to make an APK available yet because it's not complete (lack of hardware accelerated video playback comes to mind).

I just got myself this Windows Surface RT Tablet (finally) after having been through many cheaper tablets in the past, because I had been unable to afford the Surface. So, now that I have it, and have already done all I can with it (which isn't much!), I have found that I am unable to even PLAY MOST OF MY VIDEOS (most of them are mkv, avi, mp4) which is one reason I got a tablet to begin with! I have not been able to find ANY video player apps that are even worth TRYING in the MS App Store, and so far any searches I have done online for "How to install programs on surface RT", or even "How to hack my surface RT tablet" have not come up with any answers! I did find one article on how to "Jailbreak" the tablet, but even then, it will only actually RUN a tiny number of programs.
I have become so fed up and am out of patience for this thing!
I can't watch most of my movies, I can't figure out how to play the Win8 SNES Emulator (since I can't install the game ROMs), I can't install Firefox (my ONLY browser!), I hate how the Home Screen only allows you to pick from the pre-installed backgrounds, and I can't load my own wallpaper like I can on my laptop, and I really hate the Home Screen interface with all the annoying little tiles! Can anyone offer advice, or point me to where I can get some of this fixed??
THANKS! :fingers-crossed:

The RT runs RT windows 8, which doesn't run x86 apps aka .exe files. You can only install apps from the store without jail break. Also there's no Firefox for rt, I think you were confused on what rt could do compared to full windows.
All wallpapers can be changed via settings or control panel using the classic desktop. For video files the rt doesn't support every format, it'll work with the sane format every windows machine does. MP4 will work, but I'm guessing you have mkv.

Errm you should be able to. The RT has USB host. Should plug it in and it should just appear as a device as normal, tested with an Xperia M and Surface RT (not my tablet though). It only worked with my phone set to mass storage or MTP modes in the USB menu, didnt work for the picture/photo/camera mode and doesnt work for ADB.
Failing that, both have bluetooth file transfer....

Why can't you install the roms?? I just used windows explorer to copy them to the C: drive on my Surface RT. I put them in a folder within the downloads folder, but you can probably put them anywhere. Then you open the Snes8x and just add that folder as a Rom directory (press the "Load Rom" button). Someone on this site pointed out you can enable keyboard controls by swiping in from the right, and click settings->Input Settings.

Good news is, VLC is coming to Metro. They will submit their app to the store in the next following days.
Bad news is, right now this support x86 only. You have to wait for ARM support.
I feel for you. My school has given us all windows surface RTs and they're kind of annoying. I've found a few workarounds for a lot of my problems though. If you're having trouble playing .mp4s then that's just weird. Unless they're encoded really strangely, rt's video player should play those. However if that's no help it's worth trying out PressPlay, a free video player with very small ads that do not interfere at all and can be removed for a buck or two that let's you
1. Play external subtitles, although I've found it impossibly buggy but I haven't done extensive tests so it could be useful
2. Play .mkvs although that's experimental and also doesn't work very well
3. More features in general such as pausing without bringing up UI, changing playback rate, stuff like that.
Now if you have mkvs I would recommend using this program on a jailbroken windows rt:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368706
It's a program called ffmpeg and it's ported from normal windows. Make sure to download ffmpeg2.1_ARM.zip not ffmpeg0.6_arm.zip
with this program you can copy the video and audio from your mkv to an mp4 so it can play on your rt if you extract fmmpeg to a folder and then run this in command prompt(include the quotation marks and make sure to use backslashes(\) not forward slashes(/)):
cd "The bin folder in wherever you extracted ffmpeg to for example C:\ffmpeg\bin"
ffmpeg -i "Your mkv for example C:\myvid.mkv" -c copy -map 0:v -c copy -map 0:a "Your output mp4 for example C:\myvid.mp4"
That will also go super fast because there's no compression involved, it's just copying all video tracks and audio tracks from and mkv to an mp4.
In fact if you continue to use this command a lot you speed up the process heaps by making a batch file including these 2 lines of code:
cd "Again, your location of the bin folder in the folder you extract ffmpeg to, for example C:\ffmpeg\bin"
ffmpeg -i %1 -c copy -map 0:v -c copy -map 0:a "%~n1.mp4"
and then put that batch file into your SendTo folder(C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo).
If you do that then all you have to do is right click on one of your mkvs and click SendTo whatever you named your batch file and it'll make an mp4 with the same name in the same directory.
As far as snes games go snes8x has now been taken off the store but you can get a port of the desktop app of snes9x from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339228
if you have a jailbroken device. Although it is an emulator and it doesn't neccessarily run great so if you have the original surface RT as I do I would stick with 2D games. But test them and figure it out.
In fact if you have a jailbroken device there's a thread here all about apps ported to the RT or native for the RT right here:

hello, I recently upgraded from a 7.0 plus to a Tab pro 8.4. So far i really like the new tablet but I am having trouble getting aldiko (paid) to work properly. The first issue i have is that when opening a book it refuses to show pictures, the book cover, or any other graphics. I have reset the app, cleared the data, uninstalled and reinstalled the app and the problem persists. After the reinstall I also have the widget dissapearing and it refuses to come back as well. I have tried to get a hold of Aldiko support but i have yet to hear anyhting from them. Anyone have any ideas as to how this might be able to be fixed?
Thanks

I run Aldiko paid without a problem, but I only use Acrobat files (mostly created myself) and they are all stored in memory and not on the sdcard. Could either of these be the source of your problems?

I run mostly epubs and PDF files. All files are stored on internal memory. I am not rooted at this time, but thinking that might be an option.
For the widget issue somehow the app was moved to the SD card after moving that back the widget worked fine.
*Edit* I just recieved an email from Aldiko Support. It seems that some models of Samsung Devices (8.4 Pro included) have a compatibility issue with the RMSDK rendering engine.
Aldiko doesn't work for me either (Tab Pro 8.4),
I switched to "Moon+ Reader Pro", for ePub and PDF.

having the same issue. Typically the start of chapter page is blank, as it'll have a little graphic or whatever. everything works fine on my note2, asus transformer, etc etc
just the tab pro is being stupid
changing to a different app isn't that practical, as I pretty much rely on aldiko's ability to sync reading progress and library between devices
I had the same problem. Try moon reader. Fixed most of the issues. I use epub
