I just brought my new device and it is updated to latest relese.

Do i need to root my Revue to install these applications from dropbox ?

If not, how can i install these applications?
Is there dropbox app for Revue?
Also, i want to install arabic keyboard and help on that since all arabic keyboard app can not be installed from android market which came with the Revue.

Thanks and please looking for your assistance and help.

You do not need root to install the apps you want.

There is no dropbox app for the Revue,all you need to do is make a backup of the dropbox app using a file manager of your choice,then send it to your yourself through email. Open your email on your Google TV using the browser and click on the attachment,it will automatically start to download.

Now you have dropbox installed on your TV, one of the first apps to install is Orientation Control, once installed put it in Landscape mode,then start making back-ups of your favorite apps, and send them to your dropbox account.
There are other ways of installing apps on the Revue, i feel this is the quickest way to get started....

first Thanks for your reply.
What you mean of "all you need to do is make a backup of the dropbox app using a file manager of your choice" is to copy the apk file.
Do i need to use android phone to make backup or i can download the apk file of DropBox and send it to my email.
Since i am using iphone and the Revue is my first android device, i am not familiar with the backup of apps files.

Thanks again and waiting for your kind reply.

The Dev just emailed me,and on August 29th, he is updating ColorNote, so it will sync between devices, so if you make a note on your phone, it will be on your tv ,or vice versa......

On this note, as we are finding apps that work with Google TV but aren't in the market I strongly encourage people to email the developers and politely request they make their app Google TV enabled. They may not be aware their app works with Google TV nor have a device to test with, but if we can get more developers to put their apps in the Google TV market then we won't have to go through this process in order to get the to work.

Oh and re: getting apks by emailing to yourself, thumb drives etc, you can do these things but I find for the apps that are in the dropbox account it's easier to simply log into dropbox via the Google TV web browser with the login info in the first post and download them straight to the device.

I agree.

Sorry folks. I just tried to enter dropbox with user [email protected] and pass GTV2011 (i also tried GTV2012 you never know..) but without success. Dropbox is still there? Are password or credetnial changed? Or am I doing something wrong?
