Aura crashing and buggy? FIX - Android Apps and Games

Not sure if it's just me but I have been using Sygic Aura for a few weeks now and find it crash prone and buggy. However it remains the best option I have seen without data. I have e-mailed their support but that looks a limited path so far.
From the feedback on the market I am not the only one. So I have decided to post my work around here.
What I will say is that it's great software when it's working but often crashes and sometimes (I think when you try to start it too soon after a crash) it loses it's settings completely not great when you happen to use your phone for other things during a journey like making calls.
So on to the workaround, you will need :-
one rooted phone
gscript lite (available free app on the market developed by someone on this forum)
my script:-
Code:
busybox mv /sdcard/Aura/Android/settings.dat /sdcard/Aura/Android/settings.old
busybox mv /sdcard/Aura/Android/weather.dat /sdcard/Aura/Android/weather.old
busybox cp /sdcard/download/aurafiles/settings.dat /sdcard/Aura/Android/
busybox cp /sdcard/download/aurafiles/weather.dat /sdcard/Aura/Android/
busybox mv /sdcard/Aura/Res/db/items.dat /sdcard/Aura/Res/db/items.old
busybox mv /sdcard/Aura/Res/db/main.dat /sdcard/Aura/Res/db/main.old
busybox cp /sdcard/download/aurafiles/items.dat /sdcard/Aura/Res/db
busybox cp /sdcard/download/aurafiles/main.dat /sdcard/Aura/Res/db
am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.sygic.aura/com.sygic.aura.SygicAuraActivity
exit
How to do it.
firstly configure aura how you want it and exit the program.
secondly copy the following files :-
/sdcard/Aura/Android/settings.dat
/sdcard/Aura/Android/weather.dat
/sdcard/Aura/Res/db/items.dat
/sdcard/Aura/Res/db/main.dat
In to the directory/folder:-
/sdcard/download/aurafiles/ (you will need to make this folder)
(you may not need all these files but it does work with all of them if you add favourites you may want to redo this stage regularly probably worth scripting itself.)
Open up gscript lite on your droid, select add script input a name and paste my script in and save
best of all you can add a shortcut directly to the script in your homescreens.
no more lost settings in Aura.
I have only done a few tests so far but these have had the desired effect even when the software has reset. I will update the post if I bump into any unforseen site effects. This script is provided without warranty or blame if it doesnt work for you!!
Enjoy!

new favourites are retained they are in another file.
nope I was wrong it resets favourites so a script to copy them in the first place!

aura is pretty much unuseable on my galaxy s cap.
not only does it crash all the time, it sometimes reboots my phone.
i like the UI, but it's way too buggy.

[GUIDE] Removing system apps without a PC

Sometimes, you want to remove an app without a PC near by, or ADB is being a pain on your PC and Moxier is really annoying you.
So here is a quick step-by-step guide to removing apps without needing one of those pesky computers
You will need... your rooted Android phone with Terminal Emulator installed.
Open up Terminal Emulator.
The first step here is to mount the system directory with read/write permissions:
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
Now, for system apps, we need to change directory to the system apps folder:
cd /system/app
Next, to list all the apps in here simply type:
ls (thats lower case L, not upper I)
Finally, the actual removal of the app, I will use Moxier Mail as an example, as this is everyone's favourite app to Remove, but as long as it is in the above list, this works:
rm -r moxiermail.apk (this IS case sensitive)
Hope this will help someone out there.
All of the above has been found from Google, I just put it here because I have needed it recently and thought others may too.
I just used titanium backup.. no need to fiddle with codes ;-)
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Wait, Titanium Pro can uninstall Moxier and Quadrapop ? So we can just root the phone and with that app remove apps that we dont want ?
Yup.. Got rid of alot of apps including the ones above, mediascape and timescape an all
although slight issue with timescape removal (i think) was error when you wanted to view a contact in detail.. although I've alwayz preferred long holding contact name to call, sms, etc.. I'm sure a contact app could be a solution to this.
hope it helps!!

Did the same with titanium, thanks, the long press won't let you choose other then the default number... installed phone book app from the market, works fine but cannot select to call from the search widget what was a must for me.
By the way, did you try to uninstall the phonebook.apk?
Also, does anyone knows how to re install timescape?

Then I really dont know why are people messing with those instructions and entering them in cmd, I was hoping to have this easy way for it.
Tnx
excellent thread
this is great for complete and utter n00bs like me. im learning more because of threads like these. thanks
Nope joel.. I didn't try remove the phonebook app lol god knowz if anything would have worked then. I went on to instal the r2ba023 root so I knew what to avoid this time.. so far running really well unfortunately not havin a really good time with the battery though.. was similar to when I had r2ba020 root.. some reason it actually drains more than when I had the r1fa016 firmware lolz think I'm gonna try an extra charge overnight wish me luck!!

I wonder your results... Keep us posted please!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Well I actually knocked off so didn't get to extra charge lol but it was charged over 80% anyway so wasn't too fussed.. what I've noticed so far is in standby in an hr I've lost nothing, but when I use 3g/wifi I lose like 2% in like 10 mins or so!! wierd!!

Its say read only file system...
$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system$ $
mount: Operation not permitted
$
If the command line method isn't working for you, you may have to enter
$ su
first to enter super user mode. Then follow thefunkaygibbon's great guide.
And if you're using Titanium Pro, Freeze works great if you're shy about uninstalling a system app. You can always unfreeze it if you run into problems.
I need help, I removed news widget with Android Titanium backup. First, I back up the widget and then uninstall and reboot. I did this because the news widget/news app stock in my HTC DHD stop working. After reinstall with back up the news app working but the widget disappear when i search it through widget area to add it to my home screen.
Help appreciated.
Thx
Titanium Backup is the best.....if you are Rooted.....
You can remove System/User Application.....you can freez system aplication(better than uninstall)...you can backup system data/user application+data........on the fly.....
:0
The best part about Titanium, is if you've purchased it, you can freeze apps if you're unsure if removing them will cause problems. If there are no problems after a few days, they should be fine to delete. If problems arise, just unfreeze the app.
Hi!
I tried:
$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system$ $
mount: Operation not permitted
$
Wan't work, I also tried the same with "su"
I also become "permision denied"
I rooted the phone with z4rooot
I wan't to remove moxier mail, need never Version 2.8
What's wrong????
thanks
Root manager is the best.

Stagefright/Streaming Audio Fix Scripts to Enable/Disable on the Go

First, I take absolutely no credit for this beyond bringing this to the Evo forums' attention. And, I take absolutely no responsibility for whatever happens to your phone, period, ever.
As you probably know already, when you move up to 2.2, your Pandora streaming will likely take an audio quality hit due to the stagefright encoding introduced in 2.2. The fix is to disable stagefright in your build.prop. Unfortunately, disabling stagefright permanently introduces other issues. glitzbd over in the Nexus Forum posted this method the other day in order to enable/disable stagefright on the fly.
"I just did this on MCR21 (FRF91) and what a difference! Here is what I did!
I downloaded GScript Light (buying the pay version ASAP haha)
Opened the program and ran the CPU script to give it SU
In the program hit the menu button and then add script
I put the following in:
Name: Enable
Needs SU?: Check
setprop media.stagefright.enable-player true
Save
Name: Disable
Needs SU?: Check
setprop media.stagefright.enable-player false
Save
Now go to your launcher and long press to add a shortcut, and then scroll down the GScript and it will bring up a list of all of your scripts, put both of those on the homescreen!
For convenience I will attach the scripts just in case you don't want to bother with it haha
I am not positive on how to add them, but I think you can just unzip them, and place them on your SD card and when you go to add script then hit Load File
Enjoy!"
and per beagz in the Nexus Forum
"Thanks for posting those. I was just about to do that myself. Great job.
Make sure you place them in the gscript folder on the sdcard.
Also long press on homescreen --> shortcuts --> gscript
then select which script you want to have a link to. Then you can just press the icon for enable or disable."
Link to scripts: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=372654&d=1280871021
Now seeing as I don't have the skills for this, should anyone have the skills and would like to help, having a widget for this would be extremely helpful.
Thoughts?

Isn't that kinda what you just did, set up an enable and disable widget?
To contribute, however, you could use tasker to create a desktop widget that brought up a menu with two options of disable and enable, and you could click each of those to perform the action.
I've only been using tasker for a week, but it's pretty awesome IMO. I have already created lots of custom stuff. For example, when I plug in my headphones, it sets my volume and opens Pandora.
Anyway, could be an option without having to do coding.
You mentioned that it caused other problems, can you share what those are? I've since changed my build prop too, so I guess I've got whatever those problems are. :/
I tried this...but the problems I encountered was with streaming radio apps such as RadioTime, Yahoo Music and WunderRadio). In my experience, when you switch to false they refuse to connect and stream.
I read in another forum someone wrote Pandora about their sound issues with Froyo. They acknowledged the issue and stated they'll be making changes in their next release. Of course, they didn't state when the next release will be.

I've been having streaming issues with Last.FM and Pandora. I'll give this a whirl and let you guys know how it goes. Thanks for the tip though, much appreciated!
I tried adding the scripts, but it seems that the build.prop file does not get updated no matter what I do.. there are no errors when running the script and it even confirms that it ran, but the value doesn't change...
Edit: I ran Quadrant to make sure the scripts worked and yes, they do affect my scores so it looks like it's changing as it should. Thanks again, hopefully it fixes my audio issues.
Edit2: Seems to have fixed my Last.FM, thanks a bunch!
I can confirm these scripts are working for me as well. Streaming radio stations without stagefright player enabled caused the same problems so these scripts allow me to get around this relatively easily. BTW, to the above user, these scripts are adb shell commands and will not modify the build.prop.
Question: Is there a way to open an app with a shell command? I would like to set the property to the appropriate value and proceed to open the streaming app afterward. So I would have a slacker script that would disable stagefright and start slacker, etc. Thanks!

Another plug for tasker, it is able to run ASE (Android Scripting Environment 2.0+) scripts, so maybe we could make it work there.
Running shell commands in an app is more difficult than it sounds. I tried to do it a while back with a test app I was writing, and it doesn't really translate too well with the Android API. I'm sure there is a fairly good way to do it by leveraging an outside java api, but I didn't have a ton of luck.
Here's a link to the ASE (now known as SL4) google code page:

It looks like this is on his todo list for Tasker. From his website:
rooted phone: become root/user, Run Shell Script (bash, no ASE needed), Reboot, toggle background data,key events and injection
Thanks for this. Before, I either just pulled the build.prop file and edited it there, making it permanant, but then everytime I flashed a CM6 Nightly it would go away And then I would always manually type it in on Terminal Emulator, which would be a pain, because after restart, I would have to redo it!
Now, thanks to this, I can disable/enable very quickly, and should be able to keep these scripts when I flash the CM6 Nightlies
Glad I could bring this to everyone's attention.

Modified build.prop. Way improved speeds

I modified my build.prop this morning, and my D2 is way snappier, no catching in long lists, and more

Will this work for those with 2.2.20?
This is kind of specific to your phone. Can you tell us what you changed?
I would not blindly copy someones build.prop. One thing I noticed, his is for 2.2.19. I diffed his with mine to see actual changes that would make a difference. Mine is 2.2.20
Code:
# This defines the max event window manager can
# handle in 1 s. We may adjust this # for performance
# reason later
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=60
# This defines the min duration between two pointer event
ro.min_pointer_dur=8
# Time between scans in seconds. Keep it high to minimize battery drain.
# This only affects the case in which there are remembered access points,
# but none are in range.
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval = 75
# This is a high density device with more memory, so larger vm heaps for it.
dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m
#Proximity sensor debounce time
mot.proximity.delay=200
# disable touch below 60 pixels
mot.proximity.distance=45
The problem is some of my setting may differ because mine is stock 2.2.20 and his is 2.2.19, so I am not sure what he changed and what changed because of the update. I would like to hear exactly what he changed and his reasoning behind it (why he thinks it would give better performace). You can read the comments to at least see what the different items do to get an idea if you want to do a similar change, but that doesn't tell you if its different because of the 2.2.20 update, or because he changed it.
Update: I see he snagged these changes form the Droid X forums. Check here to see an explanation of what the settings do. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771232
I didn't think it was specific, but I guess so. Yeah, that's what I changed. And just testing after changes seem a lot faster

This is what I noticed after copying the file to my d2...
1. Can't make phone calls...when I press the phone icon to make the call, it kicks me to the homescreen and the top notification area tells me I have no signal....maybe the instant outgoing call changes is causing this.
2. When the phone turns the screen off...I noticed that the screen is black/blank but the back light is still on...so the screen is still on...
Other than these issues, I love how snappier the phone felt and the high density combined with launcherpro 5 rows is awesome. Too bad the issues makes my phone unusable...

Agreed, no one should copy this directly.

I did this change manually and it does seem to have improved graphical performance in menus.
Anybody trying to mod their Build.prop using adb here's how I did it:
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for messing up your phone a build.prop is an important file. (I copied the files off so the file should never leave your phone it should only be copied over after we edit it, so nothing bad /Should/ happen)
(set USB connection to Charge Only)
adb devices
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cd /system
ls (only for seeing directory contents)
cp /system/build.prop /sdcard/build.prop
Now that you have the build.prop on the card you need to access it
Switch the USB connections to USB Mass Storage
Now go to the new usb device on your computer
The build.prop won't be editable yet
right-click->properties on the build.prop
now edit the name from build.prop to build.txt
click ok and/or apply
click yes to the box saying the file may not be usable (it will after we name it back)
now edit the build.prop (I used Wordpad and added comments that included the original values just for reference)
(make sure to save changes)
Now, go to the folder the 'build' is in at the top click on Tools->Folder options then uncheck the box for "hide extensions for known filetypes"
Rename the file from 'build.txt' back to 'build.prop'
Set the USB connections back to Charge Only
the cmd prompt should be back to the folder with adb in it so:
adb devices (just to make sure)
su
cp /sdcard/build.prop /system/build.prop
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
exit
That should do it just reboot your Droid 2 and it should run better/faster
My first benchmark from quadrant was about 1500 this came from around 1350-1430.
Hope this helps
On the last command I think you typed the command incorrectly, ro,remount does not work so I used -o,remount..not too familiar with adb but I think that worked and I changed some of the build.prop and the results are pretty noticeable..with no animations set the phone is amazingly snappy and responsive .I used some of the specs they used for droid x but im hoping someone can write all the droid 2 specs because this way we know if these limitations are for our phone not the X. Thanks

That should do it just reboot your Droid 2 and it should run better/faster
My first benchmark from quadrant was about 1500 this came from around 1350-1430.
Hope this helps

think you forgot one thing...or at least I had to do this step....
thanks for the infos though, very helpful.
the bad news--this actually reduced my quadrant score. I was getting ~1350-1400 and now more like ~1275-1350
FWIW I'm running Epic Unleashed 2.5
Using epic unleashed 2.5 I'm constantly hitting near 1500 on quadrant and one time I hit 1520

Removing Bloat

I posted something similar in the GPS thread for the Galaxy S 4G. I used the One Click Root method and Root Explorer to go in and delete a bunch of bloat from my /system/app and /data/app folders. I pulled out Telenav.apk, DoubleTwist.apk, Layar.apk, VisualVoicemail.apk (replaced with the older, mostly black version that isn't hideous), and Slacker.apk as well as the various .odex files where appropriate.
However, since then I've seen two problems: News and Weather doesn't want to find my location via GPS anymore, and I have to be on Wifi for it to find me. A small annoyance and makes me wonder if the new ROM references Telenav for some location data (which is a good theory following problem two).
The second, more concerning problem, is I'm seeing what I can only call "phantom force closes". It happens after rebooting, randomly when enabling Bluetooth or wifi, and in the stock browser on random websites, the phone vibrates several times indicating errors, will crash out the application (and one time the phone itself), but does not give me the force close error message telling me what app or why. It's definitely looking for either doubletwist or telenav but I can't figure out why it would need to do that as they are 3rd party apps. I've removed these apps before on the Vibrant 2.1 and 2.2 roms without any real problems.
If anyone can provide some helpful information it would be much appreciated. The phone has been more stable the last few hours since several reboots but will likely start acting up again later.
Any thoughts?
I removed all those apps and more without getting a problem on my phone. But I left telenav cause its free and its not beta. I also used terminal emulater and systemapp remover to remove them. Then I used root explorer to delete the odex files of the apps I removed. Maybe the way your removed them was bad.
How do you remove the odex files? Where are they located?
Remove Stock Files / Apps
Here is a quick way to remove the apps that come preinstalled on the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4G. (you could also follow this for the ones that have .odex files as well. See ls command at the end).
I pieced this together from several forums. Hopefully it will save someone the trouble of doing this themselves (or serve as a refresher like it did for me).
Sorry I couldn't post formal links to the source files (forumn rules), apparently I don't contribute enough . Just put the server names in internet explorer and it should get you there.
1.) Download the Samsung Galaxy S 4G Root app. from mediafire.com/?096oxx07q6d88b3
2.) Download the Samsung USB Device Drivers from here:
-Windows 32 Bit drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x86.shtml
-Windows 64 Bit drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x64.shtml
3.) Install the drivers.
4.) Extract (unzip) the root app to a familiar folder.
5.) Enable USB debugging on your phone: Settings -> Development -> USB Debugging
6.) Plug your phone into your computer (wait till the drivers install)
7.) Open the Root app and click Shell Root
8.) Open a command shell (Start -> Run -> cmd)
9.) Type each line, pressing enter after each line:
cd <replace this text and these brackets with the folder location of the root app>
adb shell
cd /system/app
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblk3 /system
10.) Next type the following two commands (replace the <...> with your app name, press enter after each line) for each app you wish to remove
chmod 777 <insert your ap name here.apk>
rm <insert your ap name here.apk>
Here is a list of the one's I removed. You can get a list of others by typing the two letters "ls" without quotes into the shell and press enter:
Note: Do not type in the app names in front of the file names, they are just there to let you know what you are deleting.

11.) Restart your phone.
I don't recommend uninstalling bloat via root explorer. The safest way to remove the bloatware is to uninstall it via Titanium backup. Otherwise you might delete a bunch of stuff you really didn't mean to.
Yeah I used TB to remove the stuff.
EDIT: I just did a "Clean up the Dalvik cache" on TB and it removed 26MB of unwanted stuff! Total free 166MB.

So you don't report any weirdness or phantom force closes? The last few days since I made the post the phone has been almost entirely stable. GPS is still a little touchy but no more errors or lock-ups.
Also, on a side- note: am I the only person on XDA that doesn't remove Amazon MP3? I actually use it pretty frequently. That is, until I see how good Google Music is going to be (if it's actually a music purchasing service).

has anyone tried removing TouchWiz?
I removed touchwiz and use the gingerbread launcher. No problems
I recently found myself having those problems too. I assumed it was because of setcpu. I delete my appz with uninstaller for root....I don't know if that was any good. However, I was hoping that I would be able to start from scratch with everything but I don't know how I can start from scratch. I am completely new to this, so alot of the terminology and thing of that nature are Vulcan to me. So if someone can help me, that, finally, would be great.
Feel Your Pain, Deleted "My Account 1.0" and now hurting
I was trying to get rid of "My Account", AKA T-Mobile My Acount, to keep it from constantantly running in the background, but actually deleted "My Account 1.0" with Titanium Pro... I tried to freeze it but it kept appearing in my task list, so I deleted it.
Soon as I did, I got a buzz... buzz buzz buzz... the buzzes of death... I now get force closes when ending a phone call, when trying to read SMS, and when trying to view my call log.
This is killing me, and I have no idea how to fix it...
Any experts out there, please help!

I rooted my Samsung Vibrant 4G and used Titanium Backup to delete allot of the same T-Mobile BS bloatware that you did. Had that same "phantom force closes" that you described. Mid phone call today the phone vibrated a few times and force close phone application and hung up on my call. Has this problem remained stabilized for you?

How do I uninstall the software using Titanium? I tried following the instructions via another thread but I only got so far. I was told to click Problems - get busybox - and then long press the apps I want to remove and force delete. However, I am able to get as far as downloading busybox. After that, are my apps supposed to show within the program Titanium or am I supposed to go to the applications itself or what? Im stuck from there....can you help????

Market Fix - Froyo Apps + Tegra 2 Apps

In addition to the standard Market Fix to get protected applications working (clearing cache/data), we also need to trick Google to think we have a Tegra 2 device.
We simply need to change the following line in /system/build.prop
ro.product.device=olympus
This tells Google Market we are using a Motorola Atrix 4G and will give us the missing Tegra 2 apps when applying our market fix.
However, since we are mimicking a phone, Tablet specific apps will not show up (NYTimes app for Tablets is an example)
Cheers!
Edit:
It is well known that the Google Web Market is hit and miss on our GTablets. This thread indicates it may take a few days for our tablet's to show up on the web interface. However, what this fix does is allow you to download most of the Froyo + Tegra2 apps via the Market Application within our tablets. There will be applications that will refuse to install through the web market interface (if your tablet can actually show up on the darn thing) because of missing capabilities, but will install just fine via the Market app.
If you want to install apps using a web browser from your Desktop computer, I recommend the use of Appbrain to generate your list of desired apps and then syncing your list on the tablet to install.
Hi,
SUPER!!
This build.prop change, just by itself, on stock 3588, allows me to see a bunch of apps I haven't been able to see before, including Firefox, Flash, Tank Hero, etc. Didn't have to do anything else, no fingerprint changes, etc.
Thanks!
Jim
AWESOME! The only thing I can't find is message ease which is no great loss and I'm not seeing it on the web either -- I think they are pulling it on and off the market. But YES -- Laucher Pro, Saumari, Silver Creek games, Flash 10.2, tv.com, both opera browsers, dolphin HD -- all there. FANTASTIC. THANK YOU!
Even Vlingo shows up which was never found before. Truth is I don't even want it but it was one of my indicators.

Whoops! Helps if you spell it right. I always think that should be a faster keyboard but then I give up and go back to BetterKeyboard or the word predicting one which is great until you need to do Linux command lines and such.
Sorry for the confusion. I even found Astro Bluetooth Module another I used to have to switch for. Very cool.
Hmmm... the market.android.com site no longer shows my device since I made the above fix! It only shows my older device. I tried just clearing the market cache and rerunning but no go. I am now running the regular market fix (clear cache in market, stop, clear data in service framework, stop, reboot).
I did install things off the market, but it had to be from the device.
Ok tablet is booted back up.... drum roll....
Nope. And now I am -- for now -- only showing my paid apps off the market, none of the freebies I had previously installed.
UPDATE: I killed the market data and cache along with the service framework data and rebooted. This made no difference to the web site (unless it takes time for it to catch up) but it did -- after installing something else -- restore my existing apps. On the other hand, having the market working on the device beats the web site, but it still means something is "off".
How do we request this be made a sticky?
I know I've tried just about every market tweak for the last 3+ months and this is the only 1 that made a huge diff.
Jim
I haven't tried this fix (heck I don't even know how to apply it, someone mind helping a noob out?) but I had the same problem you did where the web market doesn't show your device. I tried spamming the regular market fix and still no good.
However I logged back into the web store today and it showed my device, weird.
Not sure how to fix it but yesterday I changed my password so I was forced to sign in again. Of course that didn't work at the moment but I guess it worked since I can now see my device now.
Hope this helped.

Yeah I tried logging out of the web site and back in. I've tried forcing a google account sync. And I've tried making sure Talk is running (apparently the website uses talk to send things to your device.).
Just for fun I put my ro.product.name/device/board back to Vega and with no reboot or anything the web site immediately found the device.... curious....
Well now that I'm back on the web site, my market is back to how it was even after I put the olympus line in. Getting too late. Will look at it tomorrow :-(

I did the change by:
- get temp root via z4root
- make /system R/W via root explorer
- start a terminal
- cd /system
- Edit build.prop: busybox vi build.prop
- did regular market fix
- reboot

I'm quite new to the Android OS so I'm not really sure how to do this.
I installed z4root and got temp root. I'm not sure if I needed it as I read somewhere that Vegan 5.1.1 (which I am using) gives me root already.
But I installed it and ran it anyways.
I'm stuck on giving my /system read and write permissions. Is this 'root explorer' app needed? Or can I use my 'iFileExplorer' app to do so, if so how? (It came with the vegan ROM)
Not sure if you meant to type ifileManger, but it will not get you write permissions. Root explorer will allow you to write. It looks as though you may have to
open a terminal up as discussed above, to change the build prop.

Hi,
If you don't have root explorer, there's a free app on market called something like "system mount r/w" that is free that will mount /system as r/w for you. Or, I think that you can do it using a terminal and a mount command (something like mount -remount....).
Normal file explorers won't do the remount.
Jim
mount -o remount,rw /system /system
Watch out for the spaces and you need to be root so do an su command first.
When done, repear the mount command but use ro instead of rw. You can do this with a terminal program or the adb.
Root Explorer is what, $3.99? Worth it for the time savings. I bought the Ti Pro too. $300+ on a tablet...spend $9 on some software to make life easier.
iam a noob. i have stock rom 3588. how do i get market working?
By the light of morning I got back to a full market! But it again broke the web site connection. Is anyone seeing this behavior? Or is it just me?
For the new guys.
1) This appears like it MAY break your connection with the market web site [Update: Wait a few hours and it appears to catch up with you]. It may have other unknown effects. If you are not comfortable with making mods you might wait until more people have reported success or failure with this. For the record I did NOT find this fix (thanks Isira -- see OP of this thread). Just writing up my take on what you need to do. This applies to VEGAn 5.1.1 with supplement. It has been noted that with a stock rom you may need to put "busybox" before commands like cp (which you don't need to use if you have Root Explorer, by the way). If you get this to work (or not) on a different ROM, report it in this thread.
2) That being said, you need a file explorer that will look at / and edit text files, an su utility (comes with your root kit; as far as I know all the custom ROMs are pre rooted) and a command shell/terminal. Or you could spring a few bucks and get Root Explorer which is well worth it and does all of these things. Others have suggested Absolute Root tools which I do not know about. You could also use adb for all of it (which is what I did) but if you know how to do that, you probably don't need me to tell you what to do. We will be changing your build.prop file in the /system directory.
IF YOU ARE NOT USING ROOT EXPLORER GO DOWN TO STEP 3B. IF YOU ARE, GO TO STEP 3A.
3A) Open root explorer. Find /system and press the "Mount R/W" button.
4A) Long press on build.prop and select Copy. Then navigate somewhere like /mnt/sdcard and press the paste button at the bottom of the screen. This is your backup. Please backup.
5A) Go back to /system
6A) Long press on build.prop again. The menu is scrollable. You want Open in Text Editor.
7A) Find the line that says ro.product.device=XXXX (where XXXX is probably Vega). Make it read:
ro.product.device=olympus
Don't change anything else.
8A) Save the file by pressing the menu key and selecting Save & Exit.
9A) Scroll to the top of the /system directory and press the Mount R/O button.
10A) Reboot your tablet. Wait for things to settle down on restart. Open Market. Look for Saumari 2. Look for LauncherPro, Opera Mobile, etc. It will all be there.
If you don't have root explorer:
3B) Open the terminal. At the prompt, enter (spaces and lower case matter):
su
mount -o remount,rw /system /system
HINT: If you think you will do this a lot grab Script Manager off of the market. You can put the mount line in a script, tell it to execute as root (which is the same as su) and then you can run the script when you want to make changes.
4B) Start your file manager and find the /system directory. Your file manager probably starts in /sdcard or /mnt/sdcard. You'll need to go "up" a directory or two to root and then back down. Either way, when you find it, make a backup copy of build.prop somewhere you can write to. Seriously. Do not skip this step. Make the copy.
5B) Edit build.prop. You are looking for a line that sys ro.product.device=XXXX (probably Vega; I don't know about other ROMs and if this works for other ROMs but for VEGAn 5.1.1 its Vega). Carefully replace whatever you have as XXXX to olympus. So the line should read:
ro.product.device=olympus
Note: Some of us had other changes to build.prop. Not clear if these had any effect or not.
6B) Save your changes. If your file explorer is not root, you probably need to save the file to where you can write (your sdcard for example) and the copy from a terminal, such as:
su
cp /mnt/sdcard/new-buildprop.txt /system/build.prop
or
su
busybox cp /mnt/sdcard/new-buildprop.txt /system/build.prop
7B) Open your terminal and enter:
su
mount -o remount,ro /system /system
Remember spaces and case count! Also if you are in the same terminal window as before you don't have to keep entering su since you stay root.
NOTES FOR BOTH SETS OF INSTRUCTIONS
I did the original market fix after saving the file, but some people say it is not necessary. But at least a few people have said they don't see much or anything in market until the redo the fix (the one where you delete the market cache and the google services framework data and reboot).
Things that appear to work:
1) Installing free programs
2) Updating existing programs
3) Amazon market web site oddly enough
4) The official market Web site AFTER WAITING SEVERAL HOURS
5) Buying an app off the build in application
Some of us had other changes to build.prop but I don't think any of them were significant. If you have trouble you might apply it (shouldn't hurt). Also, if your "my apps" only shows your paid apps (or nothing if you have no paid apps), try downloading anything off the market and that will usually restore it. There is also an update local cache key that might do the trick, but loading some freebie off the market is easier. Also check to make sure gtalk is logged in. You can try forcing a resync on your Google accounts (in the main menu under Accounts).
Hope that helps someone. Its early so I probably made mistakes and will edit any that are found.
wd5gnr,
I don't know how "unusual" it is, but on my Gtab, where I had 3452 for awhile, then now 3588, I've always noted that I don't have a "cp" command, so I have to use "busybox cp".
Just FYI, in case anyone encounters this when they try your instructions.

Based on this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941205 ), it seems it may take a few days for the tablets to register on the market.
I have 3 tablets and I'm trying to change the identifier for each tablet through the ro.product.model and seeing if each of the tablets will show up on the market. So far, only one tablet is showing on the web market, but it's still using the old ro.product.model identifier (GTablet-TnT-Lite).
However, the web market is still pretty wonky. Certain apps may refuse to install through the web market because of missing capabilities on our tablets, but will install just fine through the market app.
