Recently, I have been Searching for an app which can record my screen (or screen cast) to make some tutorials for my friends. And I had a Powerful Android Tablet In my Hand, Nexus 7, I was surprised to here from the XDA Staffs that Screen-cast don't work, but I didn't lose my hopes and kept searching, and this is what I got, I thought i should share this with all XDA Staffs,
There is an app on the Google Play Store called SCR Screen cast (link at the end of the post) There is a free version and a Pro version. The free version only allows to record for 3 mins and the Pro, Unlimited, I works very well, I recommend it for Nexus 7, but i don't know about other devices.
Link:
Free: play.google.com/store/apps/details...9tLml3b2JhbmFzLnNjcmVlbnJlY29yZGVyLmZyZWUiXQ
Pro: play.google.com/store/apps/details...Y29tLml3b2JhbmFzLnNjcmVlbnJlY29yZGVyLnBybyJd
I was prevented by XDA To put a hyper link as I am new
And I am new to XDA, So Hit the Thanks button if i helped you!
:laugh: :highfive:
I downloaded the free version from Play Store but everytime i start the app, my nexus 7 reboots itself. What is your setting for this SCR app?
Just Change the settings!
Decrease your fps or quality in the SCR Settings, the tab reboots because, the ram was full! Decrease it, and it may work!
FINALLY
Not sure why I couldn't find this, but I got so desperate last month to the point where I was manually trying every app to see if it worked. Thanks for this!
640x480 Works Good but 720p 90% is a slide show
I luv it too much
Thank you so much,I looked for 2 years for one and you at last found me the right one.....
I put everything on Max and it worked!
Thank you soooo MUCH!! !:victory:
:good:

This works on most apps that don't scale to fit the entire screen, minus a few gameloft games.
This fixed for me Engadget, speed test and some other apps that just filled a small part of the screen.
The process is completely safe and reversible. no root required:
It seems that the stock firmware comes with "Compatibility mode" enabled by default and this is preventing from some apps to scale.
To fix this download space parts from the market.
- Open spare parts.
- Scroll all the way to "compatibility mode". it is unchecked, check it. if there is already a check mark there, uncheck and check it.
- reboot phone
- open spare parts again
- Scroll all the way to "compatibility mode". uncheck it.
- reboot phone
- done.
now apps like engadget will scale to fill the entire screen.
NOTE: it seems that in the latest version on some firmware version this options is disabled by default so most apps *should* scale.
If apps like engadget already scale for you - you do not need to do this.
Nice!! Thanks for your tip

Some Gameloft titles scale better than others.
NOVA scales well.
UNO not so much.
Asphalt 5, some say it scales well. for me it is not. maybe u used an older version.
This is great, but it makes one of my fav launchers go weird... I love UltimateFaves pro... using this trick suddenly makes the carousels tiny I use the carosel to put call and sms favs.... great way for me to send out sms fast to the few I always msg...
http://goo.gl/tBbLs
I would definetely use this trick as it seems to only help some apps scale right (most in my case). Does anyone know how to NOT let it try scale/affect certain apps like this one?
This Program is work with any not fix resolution programs but not work with fix resolution prgrams.
some fix resolutio progams will be not open or smaller displays than original display and problem with sensor for game too. I try to play hungry Shark is full screen but sensor is slowly than original display
For phones?
Is it possible to use this on my HTC Hero in combination with LCD Resizer?

Downloaded an upgrade to Skype today, and included was a bunch of new devices, that got videocalling with the upgrade. Among others was the Iconia A500, but of course no A100. ARGHHH!!!
After a couple of weeks of owning the A100, I'm more than happy at the size and speed of this little tablet, but it's getting to be really tiresome, that most of the cool new games and apps I find in the Market aren't compatible with the A100
Even some TABLET APPS aren't compatible.
And this is just the apps openly state they aren't compatible. With some of them, you won't find out until you either open it, and a message tells you that your device isn't compatible, or it just plain crashes on you...
(To further the confusion, in some cases you can download a demo from Tegrazone, but when you try to buy the full game after happily playing the demo, Android Market tells you, that the game isn't compatible with your device.... WTF?!?!)
Who's fault is this exactly? Is it Google that messed up? The developers that are just plain lazy? Or is Acer somehow to blame?
(I noticed that most apps report my screen in the A100 as being 600*976 pixels. Is this somehow the problem for at least some of the uncompatible apps!?)
And more importantly, what can I as a user do? Shoot off some friendly emails to developers? Or can a root or somekind of hack help solve the problem?
Opinions, suggestions?
Video still isn't working on Skype for the A500, so you're not missing much!

Errr, yes it is (on A500/A501)! If you took 10 seconds to search you'll find in the skype parameters the possibility to turn on video (it isn't by default) and it works, I've just spent an hour on skype video, you can choose which camera you want to use, everything works perfectly. Sorry for being off topic but I just wanted to clarify what the person above me said...

Those options do not exist in HC 3.2 on the A500.
In mine stock 3.2 non root exist. Is in settings at the skype application. But you need the last skype update. I just finished a video conference right now and it worked great. Try again.
Alright, on 3.2 Rooted, but the rom that has all the bloatware and everything pretty much intact Skype does not do video calls or show ANY of the video options in the settings.
I reverted back to a backup of 3.1, and the app DOES do video call, and show the video call settings.
I don't know what your doing Kekinash, but you've got a magical tablet.
That's weird, my A501 on 3.01 stock rom with root is compatible with skype video calls.

This is both an opinion as well as a suggestion...
Be patient
Unfortunately the 7" and 8.9" sizes are 'new territory' for HC apps. Devs worked to get apps compatible with/to 10" screens and the associated resolutions that run on that size primarily for their tablet-only applications. In the same way devs for phone (1.5-2.3) apps have been working to make their apps scale up for tablet use, I'm sure HC-only app devs are working quickly to make their apps scale to smaller tablet screen sizes and those new resolutions. Even if the resolutions are already supported, afaik there's an issue in 3.2 causing them to crash when paired with 7" screens either way.
So when I say be patient, I mean hold out a bit longer and I'm sure things will be up to spec. On one hand you'll have the quicker devs fixing their apps to work well with smaller screens/different tablet resolutions and worse case scenario, you know it's all coming together anyway for ICS and at that point, everything SHOULD work.
Edit:
And friendly emails to devs let me tell you, do tend to get the job done. Especially when the app is popular. I use Getglue and was frustrated that it wasn't after quite a long time, not changed to be compatible with 3.0.1. I wrote a friendly email to the dev. asking for a Getglue for Tablets because I really loved the app and I sit with my tablet beside me more so than my phone now at home, etc. etc. and I got a response from my team saying that the app was unfortunately no longer compatible, but to use the mobile site. This was in July. Then roughly a few weeks or so later, voila! Fix'd. So it never hurts to let them know what's up.
most apps work in my stock A100
So far I have had no problems with the apps I use and have downloaded or even pay for. Skype now does video calls perfectly, the only app that was crashing a lot was a spell checker tha I did uninstall and replaced with an other one that has no problems.
Just checked, and the video options DID turn on in Skype.
Along with a little warning that it might not be supported, blah blah...
So I got to use the front camera for the first time today
Dunno if it's just me but it seems not all the apps I could/can see on my A500 appear on my A100. Same gmail account. For a while I couldn't find Facebook on the market.
Yeah, there would be a lot of apps for the A500 that aren't compatible with the A100 I can imagine.
Best way to check, is to go in to the www version of the market, then you can see all apps, no matter if theyre compatible or not. If you have several devices, the www market tells you which one of your devices an app is compatible with. I wish there was a similar feature in the market app.
BUT! On the bright side, I DID get around to rooting my A100... You think that might make a difference in regards to apps? Is there some kind of workaround available now that its rooted?
I just activated cam on my A100 and it is working fine.
?? Does Skype update automatically???

my Wife has the Iconia Tab 7" and when she gets incompatibility issues, all I do is side load the app. example, American Express app says its not compatible with her device. I just copied it from one of my Android devices and Bluetooth it to her, she installs it and it works 100%
sometimes the market place is just wrong. when I want an app even though the market says NO, I find the .apk from somewhere and install it. on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Gameloft says their game Lets Golf 3 doesn't work....BS, Ive been playing this game for a month now with ZERO issues.

I'm stock and rooted as well. What could it be? Turned off forced landscape in both Nova and system settings everything to auto and still nothing...
Running JR6 ROM from Paul and just installed today. Everything works as it should on my end. I did install the tablet UI over the JR6 rom and I haven't touched the dpi.
App runs fine, but force closes alot. Happens on my galaxy nexus as well, so it may be a crappy app.
Works fine on my rooted AOKP Gnex at stock 320 DPI, but still just a blank screen on my rooted stock rom N7 @ stock 213 dpi. Tried uninstall reinstall and still just nothingness. Baffling.

This is a Mod that I have used on the Galaxy S4 but I have an HTC One and can verify it works on both.
THE BIG DIFFERENCE IS YOU HAVE TO DOWNLOAD THE CIRRECT MULTI DPI PLAY STORE FOR YOUR FIRMWARE. (IF YOUR ON 4.1.2 OR 4.2.2 MAKE SURE YOU PICK THE CORRECT DOWNLOAD)
I just wanted to start a topic on tegra 3 and other games that work on the HTC One. Last night I did a little testing with a few Tegra games on the HTC One that are not in the play store on the device that worked.
(Update) To find almost all games in Play Store follow thes 8 steps Carefully.
(I AM NOT RESPONSABLE IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE OR MESS YOUR PHONE UP. TAKE YOUR TIME)
1. Download this file. (Its used for another fix but helps us also
Multi Dpi Play Store for 4.1.2:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/3Gnxyxla/Multi_DPI_Play_Store_v416_for_.htm
Multi DPI Play Store for 4.2.2
http://www.4shared.com/zip/66jo-mIz/Multi_DPI_Play_Store_416_for_J.html
2. Move zip file to internal SD Card
3. Reboot into revovery and flash Multi DPI Play store.zip with CWM or whatever flashing tool you use besides the stock then reboot.
4. Download ES File Explorer.
5. Hit menu and then "Root Explorer"
6. Hit "Mount R/W" (I just mount all 4 and press ok)
7. Now go back to main screen and tap the top bar and pick "Device" (so yoyur not searching the Sd the actual "Device" partition for system files.)
8. Look at the folders displayed below and tap the one that says "System"
9. Tap/Open the "build.prop" file with a text editor of your choice.
10. Change the line that says:
(ORIGINAL)
ro.product.device=..............
(The ... stands for whatever your device is. Its different for every one so I just put .... as an example)
(NEW/CHANGE TO **Only use one of these and dont copy whats in brackets**)
ro.product.device=softwin (Fakes JXD S7300b)(Recommended)
ro.product.device=olympus (Fakes Motorola Atrix)
ro.product.device=d2att (Fakes Samsung Galaxy S3 on att)
ro.product.device=grouper (Fakes Nexus 7 Tablet)
ro.product.device=tf300t (Fakes Asus Transformer Pad)
ro.product.device=GT-P7500 (Fakes Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1)
ro.product.device=maguro (Fakes Samsung Galaxy Nexus)
ro.product.device=tf201 (Fakes Asus Transformer Prime)
(Make sure you change what comes after the equals sign to "softwin/olympus/d2att/etc" no spaces)
11. Save, restart your phone.
12. Go to Aplication Manager in your settings. Clear data for Google Play Store.
FINALLY check the Play Store for a ton of new apps. Give it a few minutes to add the new apps well your searching. Takes a few minutes to see the changes and new apps!!!!!!!!!
ENJOY AND REPORT BACK IF THIS HELPS
So far ive found out that:
The Dark Knight Rises = Workes perfect so far. Great graphics.
(New) Dead Trigger = Working good no issues ive notice. Still trying it out but seems really good and fast loading.
(New) Gangstar Rio = Running perfect.
(New) Samurai II Vengeance = Working good, no issues as of yet.
(New) N.O.V.A 3 = Runs amazing havent had any issues.
(New) Wild Blood = Works fine. No issues at all.
(New)The Amazing Spider-Man = Working good. To bad drawing distance wasnt increased for the game seeing as the HTC One has so much ram
(New) Rayman Jungle Run = Works great no issues. Looks nice on the HTC One.
Real Boxing = NOT WORKING. The fighters did not show in the menu when choosing fighters for the match. Black screen once in the fight but you can get into the game and navagate menus to a fight. Might be the apk/sd data I was using not to sure more testing soon.
9mm = NOT WORKING. Non compatible message. Still trying different versions.
NBA Jam = NOT WORKING.
Wanted to add to the list Tegra games that can be bought in the app store (just for reference):
Riptide GP = Works great. Max out graphics settings in options for water splashed on screen, better waves and all around better graphics.
I know theres more in the Play Store just cant remember right this second.
Anyone who has tested Tegra games not purchasable and purchasable in the Play Store feel free to add to the list or do your own testing with different app Could be useful later on, obv the HTC One can handle these games.

Just discovered the Aptoide store todays ago and found Anime World (aka Animania Plus in the Playstore) works great on my S4. I got it so i can watch some shows that I haven't seen in over 10 years. Anyway Anime World v1.0.2 works on the ouya (very tiny picture but works) until I click certain things such as clicking on a video to play. Decided to try Animania Plus v1.0.3 after figuring out how to force the playstore to let me download it to see if the update fixed anything. Instead it does the same thing the first time around when i click on something it crashes but then after that it crashes every time as soon as i open it. I've seen quite a few modded apps on xda so im hoping someone will see this find out whats making it crash on the ouya and see if they cant modify it or find another way around it. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions you can offer.
