I have a rooted and unlocked g1 and pac-man does not show up for me on android market but I did find the apk on the net. However when I actually start a game the screen is constantly flashing, just wondering if this is because I have a rooted/unlocked g1 or if anyone else has experienced similar issues? Cheers
I get the flashing in the game, but it shows up in the market were iI downloaded it. I think it's because it's still only 1.1 sdk, once they update it to 1.5 it should be OK!

that's all you .. i would question the apk you are using .. if it's not on the market then don't use it .. i've had no problems with pac-man since fw1.0 and have upgraded to fw1.1 and still no problems .. so going to fw1.5 should have no affect .. root access does not hinder apps unless you are using ADP version which has some missing components from RC33
It's becuase pacman isn't fully compatible with the 1.5 builds yet. It flickers and the colors are off a bit. And by the way, pacman isn't downloadable in the u.s. on rooted phones right now even though it's free. We have to use an .apk.
Im running haykuro 1.5 Hr3 and see pac man in the market. If i remember reading correctly the market doesnt block apps on previous firmware versions, it does however hide apps built on a higher version. So a app build on 1.1 firmware is visible to phones running 1.5 firmware. But apps built on the 1.5 firmware is hidden on phones running 1.1
I don't think it shows up for me as my G1 is unlocked.
If you are using ADP without market fix you will not see pac-man in market.
yeh i experience the same problem on my rooted haykuro hr3 ADP rom, it only flashes in game play and it is very slow.
roote us phones
Not so fast guys I have a rooted phone and am in the us and have been able to download pacman through all ports. That seems to be a problem with your market app. I'm running jf 1.5 and it showed up fine.

ok so i bought this xperia x10a two days ago and never personally had an android before so i didn't know anything about rooting or custom roms until recently i've been shoving my face in the middle of it. heres whats ive done so far...
installed android sdk r08 windows
installed x10 usb phone drivers
adb in cmd prompt shows device listed with serial number so i have the install right
ive installed universal androot 1.6.2 beta 5 using adb install
i opened up androot and rooted the phone with superuser and matching firmware option, androot says it worked.
i tried to load google earth apk, and im STILL security blocked--what gives?
so i didnt sweat it, i figured maybe i should try another rooter. i installed z4root using the same method. i opened the program and it asked me if i wanted to re-root (because androot thinks it worked i assume) so i went ahead and hit re-root. it went through its process and says it worked as well.
yet, i still cannot install google earth because of the ATT security block. could i somehow be rooted but still have this security block? i don't see how, isnt that the purpose...to unrestrict the phone?
anyway, my x10a is still running 1.6 eclair and ive used sony ericsson's update service program to try upgrading to 2.1 and give it another try but their program says my phone is up to date when clearly my phone shows its firmware being 1.6. ive hit a brick wall with this...can anyone give me a sledge hammer? for the brick wall i mean, not the phone.
The reason you still cannot install non market apk's is that ATT has turned off the "install non market apps" by default at the factory. you are going to have to install a custom ROM in order to get away from the ATT branded phone. Google installing a ROM for X10. I did it on a friends phone a few weeks ago and got him up to 2.1.1
Good Luck!

well, i can install non market apk's...i installed both universal androot and z4root USING Android SDK. once installed, both of them say they can root the phone. now, i actually get asked whether i want some programs superuser access, and when i say yes--it allows it. i think my problem with google earth not installing via android sdk is that im still running android 1.6 and Earth requires at least 2.1. I don't see a x10 rom for 2.1 on the market to try it and ericsson update service still says im fully updated with the latest. if i can manage to get 2.1 i bet you i can install google earth and anything else that will run on 2.1. android sdk seems to be a viable workaround to the non market app restriction if im thinking about it right...i just need 2.1 now and continue using android sdk to install my 3rd party apps until a fully functional and stable 2.1+ custom rom comes out for the x10. anyone have any thoughts? give me a another 3rd party apk to install that will work with 1.6 and ill try to install it and see what my results are.
Im sure its been asked before.. but how come it wont play? Do i need a new flash update? Says it doesnt support my phone or some crap
I'm thinking the best place to ask that question would be in the ROM thread.
I'm using MikFroyo 4.4 and it was working fine. The initial fix was to the FlashPlayer.apk. There has been a recent update to FlashPlayer on the market, if you downloaded that update, that would probably cause it to not work anymore. Try uninstalling the update (if its even installed).
it was actually working just fine with the flash in 4.4 but they have since put out 1-2 new updates to Flash since then, and it broke my Hulu also. Uninstalling the updates made it work again!
Hulu blocks mobile devices. People have been getting around this by tricking the site into thinking it's a windows device by hex editing the .so file. I haven't been able to locate the most recent edited version of Flash but the previous version has been posted on XDA.
I just flashed MikFroyo today and the Hulu works on mine.... I havent updated the Flash that I know of..

Easiest way to watch Hulu is to use the app that Mik included with the rom. After you choose video you want to view, make sure you click the hourglass when the window appears.
If you are trying to use your browser to use hulu.com, you need to change your browser settings to NOT view as a mobile website, and it should work fine as well!
Also, I am pretty sure if you update Flash from the Market you will lose the hulu mod.
Hope this helps!
it does not show up in my market I am rooted running the gingerbread leak verison
4.5.595 android 2.3.3 and of course rooted
Also kernel version 2.6.32.9-g0bae333
Doesn't show up for me either. also on .595. when I go to market on home computer, it shows as not compatible with my phone.
I think you need to be on the official .596 maybe?
Here it is.
thank you all
Hi guys just got this today
Make more space application Update v1.0.2117172954.102059
My question is should I install it even though I'm Rooted? I realise I probably don't need it now that I'm rooted unless someone knows other wise
It installs fine, rooted or otherwise
Was there any advantage to installing it on a rooted phone? Have you noticed any difference?
It's when trying make space on your phone using the tool in Settings, apparently it used to crash but I've never used it

I am waiting for this update for my WWE Asia Sensation. Still nothing. What is your version number? Mine is 1.45.707.1
Mines ver. 1.45.401.2
does it appear as an installed application on manage applications?
Settings-->SD & Phone Storage --> Make more space
Very useful and not something that doesn't come on Vanilla Android I don't think.
Update arrived a few days ago on a 1.45.401.2 stock ROM but rooted and S-OFF
Didn't need a restart after, and hasn't broken root or S-OFF as far as I can tell after a full reboot.
Good to know updates are coming
Hello all
I have been having problems with my lg gt540. Recently minecraft pocket edition was released on android market, I really wanted it but much to my dismay it wasnt on my market (it was on a friend phone HTC desire HD running android 2.3.2). So i decided to put cm7 on my phone to get it to 2.3.2 (it was already 2.1). I did that, installed the market fine everything was good. However i went onto the market and it wasnt there still, went onto the web version signed in and it said incompatible firmware (yet i was on 2.3.2). I downloaded an .apk version of the internet tried to install it only to get "application not installed". so i then installed alogcat to see what was going wrong:
"E/packagemanager(1274): package com.mojang.minecraftpe requires unavailable feature android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch: failing!"
Will some one please help me to get a way round this.
Thanks

Read what it says: android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch. Your device doesn't support this, so it Android won't allow it to be installed.
