I noticed yesterday that I had 4 apps that supposedly have updates. None of them are sideloaded--Aqua Mail, Dragon Fly (Free), Snag Films, and Redux. I selected "update" and the icon them turned to "updating" but never does anything. I tried it again today, but same results. I...

Sorry you guys are having issues. I have an old Roku that craps out on me constantly, so I feel your pain. My experience with the Co-Star has been very positive so far. From some of the comments I've read here and on other sites, it does seem that there is a problem with the HDMI handshake...

The Transformer tablet with keyboard dock won't pair with the Co-Star in bluetooth mode. They don't even see each other. Still, using the tablet/keyboard dock combo is an awesome way to control the Co-Star with Able remote. As mentioned earlier, you CAN use the keyboard this way. Plus...

Just thought some folks might be interested to hear that the Asus Transformer with the keyboard dock works very nicely using the Able Remote app. You can actually use the physical keyboard to type and perform some functions. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out a way to activate the trackpad...

It's funny that after I saw your post, I encountered my Co-Star displaying a black screen instead of the normal wallpaper. Also, I occasionally get the halo-spiral live wallpaper instead of the default Co-Star background. When I first received the box, I installed a couple of launchers from...

Not to sound like an a-hole, but have you pressed the V button to see if it brings up the app menu? Or try pressing the Netflix button. It might just be a glitch displaying the Co-Star wallpaper. Your TV is indicating that it's getting a video signal, and the sound indicates that the Co-Star...

After suffering through the nightmare that is FedEx Smart Post, I finally received my Co-Star 5 days ago. I purchased this unit to replace an old Roku; since the top of the line Roku sells for $89 at Sam's Club, the $99 Co-Star seemed like a gamble worth taking. Here's how I have the device...

After my inquiries yesterday (and a post on Vizio's G+ wall), my package somehow miraculously showed back up on their tracker as having arrived in the SmartPost facility in Atlanta. This is after being explicitly told (by FedEx) that the package was lost or returned to Vizio). As of today (the...

I placed my Co-Star order on 27 July; I was provided a tracking number on 16 August. FedEx tracking showed that the package was picked up in Bloomington, CA on the 16th and left the FedEx facility the next day. After that, tracking shows an arrival and departure from Ellenwood, GA on the 21st...

IMHO a simple, non-733t-speak name would be more appropriate. Maybe something like AC-Frozen...

I've held off on installing the cyanogen builds because they don't have HTC Sense (or so I'm led to believe). Unlike a lot of folks who root, I actually like Sense and the HTC widgets. But I agree with stoneworrior; 2.2 is very fast and more optimized. I still recommend that people take...

The case is very flimsy in that area. I purchased my first case the day the Evo was released; it took about 2 weeks and the rubberized backing started to lift up on both sides. Luckily I saved my receipt and was able to exchange it.

Interesting thread. I'm rooted and running Ava-Froyo currently. It has Sense and Sprint apps. If a lone programmer can figure it out this quickly, I image that HTC and Sprint are much further along. FWIW, I'd recommend folks go ahead and root now while there is still an easy way to do so...

Fresh moves those (deleted) apps to your SD card; just browse your SD card with a file explorer program. The directory is labeled something like "fresh deleted apps). You'll see the radio program (.apk) in that folder. Using your file explorer, just click on it and it will install. Oh, be...

Yeah, what GumboChief said is correct; you need to save your apps on appbrain to a different list than "apps on my phone" because when there are NO apps on your phone and you sync to it...ABRACADABRA! Everything is gone!
