[SOLVED] Not all apps showing in Market on 1.6 roms

The problem: After installing AOSP 1.6, I noticed protected apps weren't showing in Market, including some I had bought in 1.5. I restored my 1.5 backup and found the same thing. Instructions on this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605028) were able to get my apps back in 1.5, but upon reflashing 1.6 I was back to square one.
Update:
----------
I started fresh to test things out, trying both AOSP 1.6 and gbhil's modded AOSP 1.6. I wiped, then flashed and booted, then flashed gbits and booted, then setup my google creds, then rebooted and flashed superuser, then installed busybox then rebooted.
That's my baseline. From that point, I observed:
- Market showed a limited amount of apps. One time My Downloads had all my apps, but upon trying to install one I got a "Download unsuccessful" error. I'm assuming when the download was initiated my fingerprint was sent out, and then Market filtered My Downloads to reflect that unofficial fingerprint. Meaning, most apps were missing again.
- I updated build.prop with the fingerprint from stock 1.5 (see below for instructions). I downloaded a random app (Twidroid Free) so it'd send out my "new" fingerprint, and thus remove the filter limiting my apps. Soon after all apps were appearing again. Be patient here, sometimes it doesn't update instantly. One gave a download error, but trying to install it again solved it.
- Just to test, I edited my build.prop back to whatever was default with the 1.6 rom I was using, then rebooted. My Downloads still showed everything, but as soon as I installed any random app, that unofficial fingerprint was sent out and my apps were limited again.
I don't know enough about Market to know the repercussions of what I did - does it think I have 1.5, so will it be showing me only 1.5 compatible apps? Either way, I'd rather have access to all 1.5 apps than only some 1.6 apps. And aren't most (not all, but most) 1.5 apps backwards compatible with 1.6 anyway? So the only real downside is 1.6+ apps will be hidden. If someone has the fingerprint for an "official" 1.6 device, they could change their fingerprint to that and conceivably have the best of both worlds (protected apps AND 1.6+ apps).
How To Change Your Build Fingerprint:
--------------------------------------------
1. Connect your phone.
2. Pull /system/build.prop | For Mac users: ./adb pull /system/build.prop ./
3. Using your favorite editor, find the line that starts with ro.build.fingerprint and put a # in front of it.
4. On a new line, put: ro.build.fingerprint=sprint/htc_heroc/heroc/heroc:1.5/CUPCAKE/85027:user/release-keys
5. Save the file.
6. Remount the filesystem as read/write | For Mac users: ./adb remount
7. Log into the phone | For Mac users: ./adb shell
8. Exit the shell by typing: exit
9. Now push the file back. | For Mac users: ./adb push ./build.prop /system/build.prop
10. Reboot | For Mac users: ./adb reboot
11. Go to Market, and install something to send out the new fingerprint.
12. Within a few minutes you should see all apps. If not, try rebooting. If still not, try clearing Market's cache (Settings->Applications->Market->Clear Cache)
--------------------------------------------
Hope this helps someone.

This affects the MoDaCo rom I installed, and the AOSP 1.6 rom I was playing around with. Things like WeatherBug Elite, and tons of other stuff are hidden from the Market. In the case of MoDaCo, which I installed overtop my existing 1.5 stock (after backing up of course) the apps ran fine since they were grandfathered in from the stock rom, but still weren't listed in the marketplace. I'd really appreciate any help, as these speedy roms are useless if I can't run any of my apps on them.

Code for what? What problems are you having?

Newbie question, how do you "pull" the file. I'm on shell but don't know what to input in order to edit the file.

You need to have ADB installed (which you do if you've rooted your phone, as ADB is required to do so). So you'd need to go into a command prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac), navigate to your adb/tools directory (that has adb.exe in it) and type "adb pull fileonyourphone fileonyourcomputer". Obviously replace fileonyourcomputer with the actual paths and filenames of what you're pushing/pulling. When you push the file back to the Hero, you swap the syntax, so it'd be "adb push fileonyourcomputer fileonyourphone".

OK, sorry again for noobness...
He says adb remount as read write, how do I do that?
He says log in to the phone...how do I do that on the shell?

So just to be sure, this fix will allow me to download the apps that I just can't find on the market that my friends with stock Heros can, right?
Someone recommended a new twitter client (twicca) but I couldn't open it on the market and I'm assuming it's because I'm running AOSP 1.6.
Thanks.

I just did this, and it seemed to work, but when Weatherbug Elite was downloading the phone went into the "Android" boot screen and just looped it over and over. After a battery pull it still won't boot up, and it keeps getting stuck at the boot screen. Is there anyway to fix this?

sure is nice to have sufbs back.
thanks for this.

Thanks, worked like a charm.

i did a clean install of the rom i was using
task29 and all
i reinstalled lcd density as the defualt for the rom im using is 240 and set it to 190
like i had done before
but now most of the apps i use are only using half the screen
which before they were perfect
so
should i reinstall the rom again then install led density and set it up then install my apps or just uninstall my apps redo led density then install apps

No need to reinstall anything, its a side effect of lowering LCD density, but it can be fixed, here's how :-
goto the market and download Spare Parts.
In here theres a setting called 'Compatibility Mode' Untick this and then reboot the phone - apps will then work full screen.
Hope this helps!
Cheers
Paul

just for info, you can edit the build.prob in the .zip (for cw roms) or in the system.img for nand roms before you flash. worth remembering next time you change/reflash.

[Q] "Process System is Not Responding"

I just installed the latest version of Apex, did a few customizations, then rebooted because I changed the LCD Density. Now, whenever I boot, it says "Process System is not responding". I can force close it, wait, or access the power menu. But, the screen is black, and I can't do anything. This is after a day full of reflashing and wiping because the damn device couldn't receive text messages.

How? I'm trying to follow the guides, but whereever I go, the SBF zip is corrupted.

It appears to be working now. I think I'll hold off tinkering with it for a little while. I still would like to know why it did this, though. For now, I'll just restore my apps, but only the ones I use all the time,

Did you happen to delete any system apps when you were customizing? You might have deleted an app that settings was dependent on by accident, which could cause something like that.
ALWAYS do a nandroid backup before you start tinkering with the phone, it will save a lot of trouble.
Heres how to do it:
1. Boot into clockworkmod recovery using Koush's Bootstrap Recovery
2. Select Mounts and Storage, and mount /system and /data
3. Return to the main menu and select Backup and Restore
4. Select backup and let it work.
5. When its done, return to main menu, and choose to reboot.
Now you can tinker however you want. If you happen to mess something up, return to clockworkmod recovery (hint: if you can't get the phone to boot properly, boot the phone, and pull the battery when you see the M logo. Replace the battery and it should take you to clockworkmod)
1. Boot into recovery
2. Mount your /system and /data again
3. Go back and select Backup and Restore
4. Select restore, and select you restore file (should be the only one if you've only done 1 backup)
5. Let it work, then reboot the phone, and your phone will be in the exact same state as it was when you did the backup.
If you can't get into clockwork, you'll need to SBF.

Thanks, that'll really come in useful. The reason I couldn't fix it before is because Moto sucks, and encrypted the bootloader, so I was having a problem getting back into Clockwork. Did I say thanks? Oh well. Thanks.

Yeah moto does suck for that. They are giving options on future devices to lock and unlock the bootloader though (like the xoom) so at least they are making progress. Doesn't help us though...

Are you using Droid 2 Overclock? I'm asking because it allows setting screen density. I found that the new startup scripts added to Apex 1.4.1 don't play well with OC settings that were fine on Apex 1.3. The scripts add sysctl and CPU tweaks.
I set my OC settings to more conservative settings, and it has been far more stable. This isn't a knock against either product. Both work fine together with a bit of work.
Fab did release a test release (1.4.2 seems to be the informal name) that doesn't launch his new startup scripts automatically, and that's what I'm currently running.

Aye, I am. It seems fine most of the time for me. However, I've only been running for a few days, and have barely rebooted.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA Premium App

I am had luck with 1.4.2 by setting my OC values to defaults before doing my pre-flash backup with Titanium Backup. After flashing, I was able to restore everything, including OC (default) values.
I also disabled the CPU tweaks Apex puts in /etc/init.d scripts, and and re-run QuickClock Advanced to recalculate my clock and voltage settings and imported those into Droid 2 Overclock.
So far (5 hours), it's been solid. If you don't want these issues, stick to Apex 1.4.0 for now. It was very stable.

Motoactv

Just curious if anyone is willing to tackle this little gagdet. It needs some fine tuning and possibly a voodoo sound app would be awesome. It lacks the loudness like most android phones.

It looks interesting, but I would not personally buy it. It does not have enough features for me to use it over my phone.
Sent from my XT862 using XDA App

Well I purchased one and with the help of the other thread about the apk i was able to sync to my epic with all features including the calls/missed calls and acuweather. This was with the corded headset. I have no real reason to get the wireless. The only real problem that i have right now is the sound level of the player. Its very frustrating to have to use a program to up the db level in every song i put on it. It running some kind of android platform so someone has to have some ideas.

Well, it looks like someone has listened... I didn't see a thread anywhere else, so I'll post it here, some one has rooted the motoactv. the story, along with a link to a how to is available, just google it. I was gonna post a link, but I can't.

The Motoactv runs gingerbread. CWM has gained root on it and installed Google apps. It has a decent chip and ram for a small device. The bootloader isn't locked. More and more smart watches and wearable computers will be coming out. I'd like to see a custom launcher for this size screen as QCIF+ ain't exactly great for a lot of launchers. A custom rom that remapped the hardware buttons would be nice as well.

Hi People
I just rooted the MotoACTV with the tutorial provided by Wade, the guy that rooted the watch. But I am having problems installing the ggole apps on it. The guide does not explain very well how to install the gogle apps. I managed to install several apk via adb commands and they work ok. But I am missing the market and every default google ape. Can someone explain how to do this? I already downloaded google apps zip file from cynogen web page.

There are libraries in the unzipped file that need to be installed with the adb push command to get maps to work. The market needs a bunch of crap to work. You should push all the apk (except car home if you don't want it) once you have those over, restart and you download the rest of the apps from market.

This sounds intriguing can you run RunKeeper on the rooted device. I have the motoactv and love it for running but RunKeeper in my opinion is the best running app. Im anxious to hear more about this.

Thanks Dragon, but one more question before I keep trying this market stuff. Do I do the adb push command to the same exact directories as the zip has. Like for example: the zip file that I downloaded was for CM7 and it includes a lot more directories than simply the app directory. Do I have to push every single directory the zip has and create the ones that are missing within the watch. Can you please explain more in detail if possible. Thanks again for the help as this is the only thing I am missing from this "the market".

So, once unzipped you will see "META-INF" and "system" folders.
Inside "system" you will see:
app
etc
framework
lib
inside "app" you will see:
*CarHomeGoogle.apk
*FOTAKill.apk
GenieWidget.apk
Google Maps 5.12.0.apk
GoogleBackupTransport.apk
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
GoogleFeedback.apk
GooglePartnerSetup.apk
GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
*LatinImeTutorial.apk
MarketUpdater.apk
MediaUploader.apk
NetworkLocation.apk
OneTimeInitializer.apk
*Talk.apk
Vending.apk
(*not really needed on MotoACTV but won't hurt to install)
I am doing this from a Mac using terminal, it has been a richard year since I have used CLI with windows but for Linux the commands will be the same ("dragon$" is just my terminal prompt).
dragon$ adb push ~/Desktop/gapps/system/app/Vending.apk /system/app
dragon$ adb push ~/Desktop/gapps/system/etc/permissions/features.xml /system/etc/permissions/
So, you see I have pushed the files to the corresponding directories that the files are found in the unzipped folders.
I cannot remember if adb push defaults to parent owner and permissions but if not you will have to change them to root/root and RW-R--R--

I followed CMW's guide to root mine, too.

A full custom would be great (but not needed for remapping hardware keys); Motorola's UI is really quite nice for the screen size, but won't show custom apps. Instead of the fake Honeycomb one, I prefer to use Zeam (with the launcher and grid set to 3x3 icons) -- I just think it works much better, without overlapping icons and so on.
To get a shortcut to the wifi access point settings in zeam, press and hold in a blank area, and go to "add", then "shortcuts", then "settings", then "settings" again. This "settings" is the hidden wifi one.
I also remapped "Start" to menu fairly easily by modifying they G2-keypad.kl file under keylayout; nosit1 was able to do the same with music to home. The people in #motoactv on freenode.net are very helpful, including CMW.
More information on that:
/system/usr/keylayout/G2-keypad.kl
Change this line:
key 220 FITNESS WAKE_DROPPED
to this:
key 220 MENU WAKE_DROPPED
On a separate note, you'll want to backup your userdata partition, too. Otherwise, it can get corrupted and make the file loop at the motorola logo:
dd if=/dev/block/userdata of=/sdcard/userdata.img bs=1024
adb pull /sdcard/userdata.img userdata.img
Even when restoring that, there are a ton of force closes from com.motorola.gault.activity; you have to get past them to a custom launcher to factory reset.

@dragon_76
Does anything need to be done with the META_INF folder? I'm attempting to get Market working on my Motoactv but I'm still getting a Google Services Framework force close. I pushed over the gapps from CM6 (the ones under HDPI). Not sure if those were the right ones.
I think I need to factory reset and start over from the beginning. :/

No, that folder is for recovery mode installers.
Amazon app store works perfectly if you can't get Market to work. It takes a fair amount of trial and error with apps to find ones that are functional.
I can't recommend enough installing grafitti pro. I have it from Amazon FAOTD.
I have superuser.apk installed and I had to push my preferences from /data/data/ on my phone to my watch so as to autorespond "yes" to root requests and no notifications because the UI is a fixed size window.
After doing that I installed button saviour and my purchased key for the pro features to have only home and menu onscreen. (Button saviour needs root permission).
I use golauncher ex with 3x3 home screen and the notification bar hidden. I wish I could remove the dock but oh well.
Android is going into more types of devices, I wish Google would push scalable graphics. I am however very impressed with the amount of apps that work usably on a QCIF+ screen (Netflix!)
I also like the main launcher and if I could access an app like AltDrawer from it I would not have another home replacement installed. I will tear apart Launcher2.apk soon and see if there is a way to customize it.

Thanks, wasn't sure about the META-INF folder. Going to try installing button saviour. How did you "push" preferences from your phone to the watch? I have root/su on my Xperia Play so I should have the files there to push?
Did you personally get the Google Apps working?
EDIT: Everything is forceclosing on me. :/ Installed the Stock Browser from my XP but that's forceclosing as well. Attempted to change the permissions of the applications but either it didn't work or it didn't help.

I couldn't figure out how to push preferences, but I was able to tell Superuser to allow all apps after remapping Start to Menu, then just doing Superuser > Menu > preferences. You could always do this to get Superuser working, get Button Savior working, and then revert it back.
(I made a step by step on Pastebin, but if you use Oneroot, it might do all this for you: http://pastebin.com/AZRemesV )

Thanks a lot. Just did a factory reset, figure I'll start from scratch. Did you get the Google Apps working after Superuser was configured? What Browser are you using? (Dolphin was forceclosing for me every time I went to type.)
EDIT: Got Superuser working, did the keyboard hack to make Start=Menu. Anybody know what button Music is mapped to in the configuration?
Going to fiddle around some more w/ Google Apps. Anybody have a walkthrough of installing the apps? IE Which ones you must do, don't have to do and what to do to get it working.
EDIT: It was WAKEkey 378. It was set to "MEDIA" so I changed it to "HOME". Works perfectly!

Can't boot Nexus 4 after LCD density change

Hi,
I have just changed density on my Nexus 4 with LCD Density Modder and now I can't boot :-/.
My N4 is rooted and I have CWM. I tried to go to CWM and wipe data/Factory reset and it didn't work.
How can I fix this?
Thanks for your help.

Re-flash the ROM.

How?

go back into clockworkmod and click "install from sd card" and select the ROM zip file.

Ok, but how can I transfer the rom to mobile? Debugging mode is disabled :/

Problem solved. I did it with NEXUS 4 TOOLKIT (option 9)
So, we can't change density on Nexus 4? Or have someone managed to do this successfully? How?

I have just edited build.prop manually and it works.

But Google Play Store doesn't show every app :-/. I have 280 density setting. I have tried to fix it with LCD Density Modder, but i can't install GSF. Does anyone know solution that really works?

play doesnt work with nonstandard dpi and so do many other apps. dont do this to your poor phone. paranoidandroid was originally written for this purpose, it started with hybrid engine. every single issue has been cleared out for you. things work, no compromises, nothing crashes, nothing to small because you choose size on per app basis, size is separate from the layout which you pick from a list of actual UI's an app offers, you treat the phone interface in the same way as any regular app, set it to this and that size and UI without trashing anything else, you control all this with a handy little panel thats giving you the changes you've made on sight. i lost half a year of my life to help getting android get over this build.prop nonsense - make use of it. it has found its way into a couple of roms, so flash something else if you hate pa, but use hybrid engine for goodness sake, there is no alternative that can compare to it. :highfive:

ran into the same problem as op, running liquidsmooth rc2 with franco. everytime i changed the lcd density to anything other than stock and rebooted i got stuck in a boot loop and had to go into twrp and wipe cache/dalvik just to boot. changed lcd to stock and no more boot loops. sucks because i really like running 280.
