Wow, just wow, you sir take the cake, my goodness... You've gotta be a troll...

no im not a troll and no im not a noob im trying 2 really do this @ the moment im seeing if i can run .deb files so i can use the linux version i knw it probably wont work but dont u think its worth a try 2 get chrome over 2 android.

I'm no expert but you probably have to recompile Chromium for Android / ARM devices... I doubt you can just download the binary and execute it.

Couple of things, first and foremost, the built in web browser in Android is already based off of webkit, same as chrome, so why port chrome? Second programs that run on android are java based, google only just released a native code sdk. Three to get Chrome working in any sort of correct fashion on Android would take a massive effort and probably a rewrite of most of the code.
The fact that you renamed the file to apk and tried to run it shows that you are a noob.

You might have to adb push it

You need to root your phone then flash a ROM with 3rd party apps enabled to install an app that is outside the android market.
Search 4shared.com and type applanet.apk or you could go to applanet.net

You can install an applanet apk via the sideload wonder machine but you won't be able to install the apps though it anyways.. ATT just won't let it happen.

yup basically, even after sideloading applanet, you'll still need to install apps via sideloading if you don't root.
Applanet is warez, although I'm sure everyone already knows that.

I did a little googling and found a site called ROM kitchen. So is this basically how i get started creating roms? Suggestions, links, precautions?
Rom kitchen won't work with our phones

ok. Its there a thread here that guides one to build roms? I didn't see any for sgs4g

first off grab a linux distro and install it side by side between windows and linux *unless u have a mac *
then also download beyond compare apk tool c++ compileing tools android sdk eclipse
if you also plan to theme your roms or change clolors or add transparencies you will also want the css color/transparency chart so you know the values
you can skip the c tools if your not going to plan on building kernels.. the rest you will need just for straight roms with no visual modifcatons eg themeing for that photoshop in windows or gimp in linux personally i use gimp in linux its free and has the same toolkit
if your a linux novice which i am going to assume you are ubuntu or mit 10.x preff 10.10 will get you the correct build tools for gingerbread
your going to have to learn how to decompile apps and how the changes you make alter the way the rom works *hence why virtual phones amd eclise are so handy you can test your work without having to flash to your device 800000 times
your also going to want to learn java
if your a linux novice i would suggest learning linux before hand will save you many hours of headaches
Thanks bro, gonna check it out tonight.

i was going to ask what's wrong with your market, but like you said you don't have access at the moment.
Ok i just downloaded it from the market for you enjoy, let me know if it works:
Much appreciated. I am not trying to waste anyones time. I don't have another Android phone here to grab it off a working market with.
Just to explain I have the ICS beta 4.1 loaded up but I need to run a script using this tool to fix the marketplace.
Ooh cool.. looking forward to that fix. Good luck.

[Q] Time to Root

Hello.
Can somebody please lead me to a credible "How To" root for my Infuse. I have watched many uTube videos and most seem to keep leading me to SuperOneClick. However, I haven't found a way to download the latest version. Plus, there seems to be a difference of opinion about downloading Samsung Kies drivers...some say to do this, others don't.
Thanks for the help
Charles

don't use kies.. download the USB drivers only. unless Samsung pulled them as kies is now in the support section for the infuse. (though it still doesn't work on current firmware LOL, Samsung = fail)
I would just flash the defuse or community kernel, them move on to the rom you want or maybe the kernel will be enough.
The LOL parts a little erie...but it seems simple enough..Thanks

yeah check the one click back to stock threads by Adam outler for a way to flash defuse without root or cwm. (the kernel will root you and if you flash a rom it will likely be rooted)
and I was just laughing that Samsung can't even get updater software right foe their own device, meanwhile some independent guys backwards engineered their flash tool and made a cross platform open source alternative. Samsung sux at software, they can design and deliver technology ahead of the curve then they kill it with the software.
Please excuse my slowness. However, when I go to shortfuse.org to download the latest version of SuperOneClick, I keep getting the download for something called "iliVid" a free download manager. I don't want this because I don't want extra tool bars or search engines or Lord knows what this will put in my computer. All I want is the SuperOneClick

You are clicking on the wrong link. It's a straight download from their website.

Umm. Every link I click on brings me back to the ilivit download manager, even the mirrors. I did find version 1.8 on cnet. How bad is v1.8 compared to 2.2

We at XDA call things like the iLivid download window a "pop up"...lol
I downloaded a file last night a saw the same ad...just click back to the download site and follow through with the download.
As for the 1.8 version, never used it, but updates usually are there to support new phones.

Nope...definitely still doing something wrong. I keep downloading the iLivid download manager executable file.
Is shortrfuse.org the only place which carries the latest version of SuperOneClick?
All I want to do is root my phone to get rid of all the AT&T garbage.

Before I hit the Root button to brick my telephone, to the far right of the SuperOneClick screen, there is a drop down menu: Should "auto" be displayed under exploit?
Thanks for the help.
PS
1) I have not downloaded Kies files (not sure if I should)
2) USB debugging is checked
3) I've unmounted my SD Card
You will not brick your phone doing this. It's harmless. Auto is fine.

Tried v2.2 three times and on different USB ports. SuperOneClick crashed (not responding) all three times.
Seems to crash on:
Routing Device Step#7 wait for device .05s
Infuse 4g
Win 7pro
USB debugging checked
SD Card unmounted
Keis files not downloaded
Any ideas
Thanks
