I know we all just got our eLocity A7 this week. Lets put our heads together and list apps that work, apps that don't and work arounds.
I will be adding a list later today. I have about 70 apps downloaded to try out.

Anyone try Fring video chat? the other side sees my video upside down. Is this happening to anyone else? I've also tried Tango for video chat, but it won't even connect to the other caller.
just tried knocking live video and it seems that it's not a problem with fring. i hope someone at the factory didn't install my camera upside down!!
Does anybody manage to have slingplayer works?
I did a "sideload" from memory card (extracted from XT720). It installed but it doesn't open.

Same thing here. If I just use the camera its fine, so it must be software. I don't think the hardware is incorrectly installed.

The camera image was not upside down until the last FRING update.

Works:
Slingplayer Mobile for Android (but sometimes you have to launch it several times)
Doesn't Work:
SIRUIS-XM Online: Hangs on update after initial sign in.
I'm hoping both Sirius and Sling work on improving their apps for android tablets. Sling isn't bad but they should offer a higher resolution player like they do for the iPad. Having HDMI out and using Sling could be a killer app for for the A7.
I've got Yahoo messanger video call working great, just DL'd the messenger app from the market (using Dexters Mod), and then searched for the yahoo video plugin apk.
I also HAD an Archos A70 and had similar issues with the webcams being upside down, may be something in the froyo software.
Games
Crusade Of Destiny loads and everything works except joystick
Android
I have had my Elocity A7 for 3 days now and only one conclusion, Android 2.2 and all of the software is junk. I have found that after the posted updates, more of the apps crash the system than work. The only tablet that I have seen stable with working apps is the Samsung Galaxy. Android will never gain marketshare with abundance of negative press from people like me.

Did you apply Dexter's ROM? I had the ViewSonic G Tablet prior to purchasing the A7 and nearly all the apps I tried worked fine. As for the A7 some work and some don't but for the money, I can't complain. Like it or not, Android is here to stay and will only continue to get bigger
Update to my post on page 1.
Works:
- Latest Skype now works with ElocityMod v1.1.
Not Work:
- Navigon Mobile Navigator won't run (FCs).
- Google Navigation dosen't work.
Even with an external BT GPS device that works with Google Maps it Says, "GPS is disabled". You click "ok" and it takes you to location & Security Settings, I assume to emable GPS, but there is no option to enable GPS as the A7 has no built in GPS. Note Google Navigation does work on my Viewsonic g tablet.
OK here goes ...
I got a Galaxy Nexus on a new plan with Vodafone Australia and passed on my Desire HD to my Mrs.
The G Nexus came with 4.0.1 installed.
I havent rooted the GNex, but the DHD is rooted and running English version of MIUI from miuiandroid.com.
Cut back to yesterday, when I tried to install an app from Market on my GNex. Its called "My Vodafone" and is published by Vodafone Australia. It didnt come up when searched on Market app on my GNex.
Then I tried to search for the app on my wife's DHD. Same thing doesnt show up. She's with Vodafone as well. I know the apps there on Market because ppl have installed it.
Even more surprising is that a friend of mine who is with a different provider (Optus) can see the app in his Market app on his GNex !!!!!!!!!!!
Then I try to get it via the web based market.android.com.
Logged in, searched for the app, but again it says its not compatible.
What could be wrong ?
Is it the phone/ICS/carrier that is causing this to happen ?
Apart from this I am getting turned off by this fragmentated, rugged experience of using Android. ICS was supposed to be more polished than ever !
But sadly, it hasn't lived upto its mark for me..
I have had other issues with the GNex/ICS but this one is the worst one so far.
What can I do to install this and other apps which are showing on my friends GNex, but not on mine
The developer must update the app to show its compatible (in the market) with ICS.
I would pull the .apk with titanium backup from your wifes phone and side load it to your phone.

Its not that straight forward. The app is showing on my friends GNex which also runs on ICS !!!!!!
Hi - I am the dev for PhoneLeash ... and one of our I9000 users is getting the "your device is not compatible" error. PhoneLeash has gotten installed on most every device (including those SMS-but-no-telephony Galaxy Tabs, and even WiFi devices) so this is frustrating.
If any of you I9000 owners can please take a minute to try to install it, it'll be helpful to know if this is a device issue or app issue or market issue. Its a useful app too btw forwards SMS etc to email, you can reply, GPS location!
Thank you!
well it is possible for me...
Same here. I am able to use it on my Sgs I9000 rooted.
Thanks folks ... meanwhile the user who was having troubles got his issue resolved as well. I had sent him the APK for a previous PhoneLeash release (it just happened to be lying around in my Inbox), which installed fine, but now he was able to upgrade to the latest version directly from the Android Market! Huh! But whatever the reason, hope its another tool to conquer the "not compatible" problem.

Sorry to hear that ... if can spare a few mins to help me debug further, can you email me at support A T gearandroid DOT SEE OH EM I could try the same method (give you an APK to an earlier release and see if the market then lets you upgrade)?

Market Enabler could help..
Just wondering if this has been done or not. My gf would love the same camera as I have on my nexus 5.
Thanks.

It's available for 4.4.2 but when one tries to download from playstore on our note II it doesn't show up,in the desktop play store it says incompatible so many of us grabbed the apk and it installs fine.Now where the problem begins is not all users are lucky depending on which 4.4.2 ROM or to be honest not really sure why get FC,but the most common reported problem is the wrench icon for settings when clicked it gives FC (not for me) ,and some of us tried various techniques to get it work i uploaded my /data/data/com.androidGoogleCamera folder on this Thread ,but didn't really help anyone when they copied pasted mine on theirs,so to sum it up i played around with google camera but at least for now it doesn't offer anything more than what our stock samsung camera app offers ,i use stock samsung and lenovo camera the most.
Hello everyone,
After the latest update of Google Chrome on Nov 13, the whole screen got black and just an address bar is visible, nothing works include uninstall, reinstall, restart, ...
Samsung support is horrible. After multiple emails, they can't understand the bug!
Anyone know a solution?
Also the are many note 8 and s3 are complaining under the Google Chrome app page in play store.
I have this same problem too. I tried to downgrade to previous google chrome versions and that didnt work. I even made a backup of chrome on my s3 and transferred it over and that didnt work. Heres the big one.....I even did a clean install on the rom im on and that didn't work. This also happened on another persons tablet in my house
