Hello all,
I am trying to make an application that will detect what actual hardware a user is using and then go out to google and download the official update for the device extract the google apps and install on the device. Right now I was wondering if someone could point me to an ota link for the MT3G and G1 for T-Mobile just for a starting purpose. I already found away to get hardware id and match so I am good there. Any help would be really appreciated.
I don't have them handy but I recommend you contact @wesgarner on here or Twitter and if I recall @Haykuro has them too. If @wesgarner doesn't hook you up right away let me know and I will look them up.

Hi TheArtiszan,
I can tell you that the "OTA" update links change and are (of course) specific to the carrier in question. So for G1 and MT3G, we're talking T-Mobile, in which case I can inform you that the links and locations of the OTA updates rotate and change. By any specific pattern ? That eludes me completely and I would suggest it could/would be hard to track.
Also (and possibly even more challenging to what you are trying to accomplish), the OTA updates typically provide "patch sets" instead of the full blown system image you seek to extract "pure" files.
I'm sure not the answer you wanted, but I hope it helps.
~enom~
yeh I am starting with just T-Mobile ones first since they are my carrier and go from there. even a basic one would be good. I already have an app that will extract files from a file downloaded from my site (minus progress bar still working on that part lol) and extracts files so i have a good start I think. Just stinks that is not in C# would be done already.
Didnt get a response yet from them for thefiles. got app semi working from a rom on a private server any one know about google hosted packages

I think you are taking the hard way to accomplish your goal. Farmatito has already developed a backup script that backs up the necessary files from your phone <HERE>. And redmdc already has a script that will take a backup file and insert the files into an update.zip file <HERE>. There is no need to go out to the providers to get these files. We all already have them.
Seems like it was taken down due to legal reasons? Anyway, I'd really like to be able to play this again so any help on how to install this would be much appreciated. When trying to install the wad error comes up as Invalid or missing libdoom_jni.so.
im having the same problem, load a wad, 'missing libdoom_jni.so downloading'
But it doesn't download, anyone have a link to this file? Not the Google code doom page, i haven't been able to access it for the last few weeks.
I have the file....
Hi. I have uploaded the file to 4shared. Search for libdoom_jni.
I tried put in the doom folder, don´t work.
Anyone has a better guess?

couldn't find it :/
Not sure why it was taken down, doom was released under the GPL.
you'll have to drop the file into /data/data/android.game.doom/files
if you don't have root, you're basically stuck right now =(
Got the libdoom_jni.so but whenever I try and start playing the shareware wad it tries to download libdoom_jni.so again into /data/data/android.game.doom/files/ and leaves a 0KB file there that does nothing.
Tried overwriting that file, no dice either. Ideas?

yeah same problem :/
Could someone please either post here or on rapidshare etc the file libdoom_jni / libdoom_jni.so.gz or whatever it is ??
As I cannot find it anywhere its not on 4shared or anywhere ??? I have found only one site but its in russian and I can type in the letters for their spam check as I have UK keyboard.
Anyone please have the heart and upload this file or post a link if allowed.
Huge thanks in advance.

I got the file, and used root explorer to paste it in the appropriate folder but still get the same error when alunching the app. Not sure why, but figured I would share.
Any update on this?
I just got a G2 and would love to play this again. I had it working perfectly on my G1.
I get the same libdoom error
I'm getting the same libdoom_jni.so error. I've downloaded the file and placed it in /data/data/game.android.doom/files/ and still nothing... The game keeps looking for the file when I try to launch it. I even placed a copy of the file under /lib/ just in case and I'm still coming up empty handed. I checked the permissions of the file and it's readable across the board. Does anyone have any ideas?
yeah, getting the same error here. anyone know a work-around?
worked perfectly on my nexus 1. Now I regret switching to a mytouch 4g. didn't know I would have to lose doom
maybe someone could completely re-port it haha
after all, isn't doom freeware?
I've been out for a while but as the person responsible for the google code site and the google group site for Doom for Android (FREE) I've gone ahead and modified the project to include the library in the .apk file.
The library is now included and will be copied to the correct spot when the game is ran for the first time. You can download this updated version @ Doom.for.Android.1.33.666.apk
There is plenty of work to still be done to make this a bit more playable on devices without a hardware keyboard so I'll try to get things back up and running. Feel free to join the google group for all the updates.

just tried it out and i couldn't get it running :/
it was same something about a java io exception
same here, getting the same java io error.
*EDIT
hang on...working now. I uninstalled the new version you posted, and reinstalled my old version. Then I clicked "upgrade" but it said upgrade failed. So I uninstalled the old version and installed your new version again and it is now working great.
don't know what finally made it work in all that mess, but thanks so much!
Ok, someone help a noob. I've installed the apk from this thread but can't get the WAD install to work. I get some java exception error. I've tried following the help me link but it takes me to a forbidden Google page.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it frowned upon to just have download links with ready to go roms?
Im new to the android way of thinking.
There seems to be no master list anywhere with links for updates or am i missing something?
I have been flipping through pages from several sites and have yet to see a direct link to anything useful?
I have a Samsung Tab wifi only. Where did they hide the link so i can download an update? To load a custom rom i need CWM and an update.zip right?
Well i have CWM where is the zip file?
Make one myself? I dont even know where to start building one.
Thoughts?

The new version of path is out, the social journal app, could anyone some how retrieve the .apk file, for some reason my Samsung mini never realises it is compatible, when it usually is.
(cannot post link as I'm apparently a noob)
(also is it possible to somehow make the store think your device is compatible?)
Thanks
Hey, i have the same problem. Can´t find the apk installer anywhere, maybe it´s because i´m using a custom rom. If I happen to find it i´ll let you know, i´ll appreciate it if you do the same.
Thanxs!
will do! as of yet, nothing
Hey, in case you haven' found it yet.

cheers! i was just about to send you the same thing but you got there first
I've seen a lot of posts about Orbic Wonder but does anyone know where I can find the stock firmware for an Orbic Maui (rc545l i believe)? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
What I've done:
Checked the Orbic website for the normal opensource links but can't find anything there, attempted searching a bunch of search engines (google, duckduckgo, yandex). I also attempted using the verizon/orbic update utility for windows. Does not seem to download the rom but tells the phone to. I've used es file explorer to attempt to find the update file with no luck. I've also searched XDA but only seem to find info on the orbic wonder. I would like to try developing on this device as it's a relatively cheap (about $30) and I think it would help anyone else with it. It will also give me the chance to work on android firmware porting without worrying about bricking a more expensive device.
Anything
