Always a good thread to have handy, so Ive stickied it. Now you just need to keep it updated.

tetherWifi gives a fatal error

UFSexyMexy

SNESoid always closes on me after trying to open a ROM

SSinisterSS

anyone tried beautiful widgets yet?

Fadelight

Shopsavvy - Same issues as original post

Home Defense - Can't seem to pull it up in market, regardless of how I try. (not necessarily phone related)

DxTop and aHome battery Meter - Neither of these gave me errors, but I can't seem to access them now that they are installed. They just plain don't show up anywhere except in market.

Locale will initiate fine, but it won't turn my ringer back on after the set amount of time... I have to do it manually every time. Tried reinstalling. Same result.

try openhome instead of ahome

kabbie_mcfeely

I could be wrong but are the apps you mention 2.0 compatible ?

That is more than likely the reason, not the phone it self.

Beautiful widgets works but it doesn't seem to render quite right. Some of the lines and text don't seem to line up correctly.

SkiWee393

It wouldn't le me download beautiful widgets for some reason it kept giving me a network error. I also can;t find mobile defense available yet.

SSinisterSS

damn, thats the #1 app im gonna install when i get mine.. cant use the phone without that hero clock

openhome may or may not work

Fadelight

Yeah, same note that I put in my post.

That actually bugs me... I can't think of another app more important to me than that one, and it just disappeared? They have the option of a manual download on their page, I think... but I couldn't get to the download either. Page not found.

I was going to email them tonight (if I can find an email), but I got sidetracked with all of these posts. lol. You can tell a new phone launched today. In the 3 hours it takes me to finish my courier route... 4 days ago - 33 posts. 3 days ago - 52 posts. 2 days - 127 posts. Last night - 353. Tonight - 1,376.

Edaze55

Look up an app called weather widget - donate. Its another Hero style flip clock with time, date and weather.

Edit: I recommend Beautiful Widgets as it looks better, but this ones good too.

Edit 2: Might want to give Market, and app makers some time to catch up to 2.0 before trying to adjust your home screens with open home. aHome. and the like.

SSinisterSS

yea i have both of them on my computer. i gotta try both when my phone gets here.

drumcrazy

ShopSavvy was the first App I ever downloaded for the Droid. It works but it can sometimes take a while to focus on the barcode if you have a shaky hand

A game that does not render graphics properly is Neocore. I hear it's a game with amazing graphics

SSinisterSS

i hope pacman works

i downloaded the rutger S9 9mm handgun app in verizon on their model. it was funny showing people how to use it to shoot things.

you guys can download the rutger S9, or the AK47 in the market. theyre free.

Blazeix

Layar (the augmented reality app) doesn't work, but the author said to expect it to work in a few weeks.

Edaze55

Now thats a shame, it can really be a fun app to kill some time with.

JRSly

I'm not an Android expert, so hopefully someone can calm my fears...but this seems like a major annoyance, if you can't expect backwards compatibility and you're going to have to wait for a lot of apps to catch up everytime the OS is updated. Are there any measures being taken in the 2.0 firmware to ensure more compatibility from 2.0 forward? Like once everyone has brought their apps up to date with 2.0 they'll be more future-proof?

Edaze55

What you're asking for isnt really backwards compatability but rather forward compatibility which likely wont happen as the app devs cant really predict what will and wont work in the future. Most off the good apps all have great support and they usually get things worked out rather quickly.

NSXLA

What are the chances these scan barcode apparently are having issues,because the camera it self can't focus properly. What a shame oh well I still got 29 days to return

SSinisterSS

compare everywhere works as a scanner.

Verizon's Droid: 10 Apps to Get You Started - PC World

geobernd

One more:
Express News crashes on start

wsbsteven

UStream tells you it's not compatible when you launch the app.

mrich87

anybody know if nba league pass is going to available?

syntrix

Try using AF in the camera app, yup works just fine.

I'll bet it's because it's not 2.0 Compatible. I just sent shopsavvy an email asking about compatibility.

e39e60

Compare Everywhere is not showing in Market for me. Can someone else check from Droid?

blazingwolf

Not showing for me either. Maybe it was pulled because of a bug. I know Key Ring was.

quixand

Barcode Scanner and ShopSavvy work perfectly for me. Not sure what the issue is with you guys. Bad camera maybe?

One thing I DID notice, is the barcode must be well lit from above.

waremaster

IM + lite crashes on me randomly.

MysteryloverAnne

Panda Home scrambles my screen and even when it is 'in the trash' it resets when I don't want it too - I need to get it OFF my Droid entirely. How do I do that? Never mind....figured that out now.

Neocore. It's an OpenGL demo. Everything appears to work fine, but there are no textures or menu graphics. Everything is just wireframe/checkerboard.

OctoMom

Barcode Scanner works for me, no problems at all.

The Bluetooth On/Off apps don't work for me though, it just sits there and will not toggle.

+1 for this

I have gotten shopsavvy to work great most of the time, but sometimes it just wont scan.


Snake does not work, Crashes when I try to play.

kingohearts2005

+1 need to know this. Cannot find it in the marketplace

SNesoid (SNES emulator) works great. I just downloaded 800 games to my sd card (1.5 gb). I set it to fit screen, beautiful. The emulator cost $2.99, but well worth it.

kelley350x

I downloaded old school snake and when i click new game a screen comes up and says to press up, it does not matter what i do i cant get this screen to go away, i have tried every key and by swipping up on the screen and everything.. maybe it works and i just dont know what i am doing...

kelley350x

how do you remove apps?

rawness

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications

Select the app you'd like to delete then press Uninstall

OctoMom

There's probably a better way but this is how I know how to do it.

Go to Market, open the menu and select Downloads. There it will list your installed application, just select the one you want and you'll see a button to uninstall at the bottom of the screen.

EDIT: Doh! I knew there had to be a less confusing way to do it.

ChompSMS won't install

Redflea

*NOTE: as of 11/06 not compatible with android 2.0 YET *
Barcode Scanner same thing but at least it reads SQ codes -

REDFLEA: Worked for me on both Android App barcodes and product bar codes.

beautiful widgets doesnt display correctly
REDFLEA: Works for me - have their clock/weather widget running - is that what you mean, or something else?

landis73

I've uninstalled the bluetooth off/on app as it wasn't working right (it wouldn't turn the bluetooth off or on with the shortcut on the main screen. However, now that I've uninstalled it, it left the settings menu option in there.

Any clue on how to get it out? Because at the moment I have two listings now for bluetooth off/on in two different spots in the settings menu.

sesso

I cant even find chompsms anymore.

Jaxx10

Hi Redflea ...Yes i just reinstalled BarScanner and IT is working ..will be updating my post ... asfor beautiful widgets ... i will be installing that next to see if it works ... Im updating list as people start posting ..unless its been updated to 2.0 im removing them ...
