[HOW-TO] Stock Apps for All!

After two days of fumbling around with adb, numerous nandroid backups, and ultimately wiping my system, I, with the help of my friend Kiraly (his xda username), have successfully installed the stock Messaging, Clock, Calculator and Browser apps onto my phone.
The Messaging app was of particular interest to me because I hate how the HTC Sense Messaging app always loads briefly when you enter a thread of messages, no matter how many messages are in the actual thread. Also, the stock Android Messaging app has a feature similar to BBM in that an icon within the thread notifies you when a message has actually sent.
By following the instructions contained hereunder, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the original poster (the "OP"). I hereby disclaim all warranties and liability for any harm that may result by following the aforementioned instructions.
Installing these apps was fairly easy once we found out how it needed to be done. You will need the following:
A. Minimal knowledge of adb, or rather knowledge of how to copy and paste adb commands.
B. You will need full root (root and nand unlocked)
C. 1.47 kernel with the modified default.prop file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7138666
D. The Root Explorer app (this can be purchased in the Android Market)
E. You will need the following .apk files from BuglessBeast. They are the only apps that I have been able to successfully install. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700175
-Mms.apk
-Browser.apk
-DeskClock.apk
-Calculator.apk
STEP 1
Perform a nandroid backup.
STEP 2
Plug your phone into your computer via USB and mount the sd card.
STEP 3
Download the 1.47 kernel with the modified default.prop file. The stock kernel is also contained in the following link, and you can always revert back to it if need be. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7138666
STEP 4
Flash the modified 1.47 kernel .zip file to the root of your sd card (for all you rookies out there, simply drag the .zip file onto your sd card).
STEP 5
Reboot into recovery and install the kernel you just flashed. Then, reboot the phone.
STEP 6
Download the BuglessBeast ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700175
STEP 7
Unzip the BuglessBeast file. Open the unzipped file. Find the folder labeled "System", and open it. Then, find the folder labeled "App", and open it. Find the files labeled Mms.apk, Browser.apk, DeskClock.apk and Calculator.apk. Drag those files to your desktop.
STEP 8
Download and open the Root Explorer app. Scroll down to the bottom and click on the folder labeled "System." Then, at the top of the app, click "Mount R/W." After you click that, open the "app" folder. Each application has two files you need to delete. Do not delete any of the clock files. You will need to delete the following files and then quit the application when you have finished:
-Browser.apk
-Browser.odex
-Mms.apk
-Mms.odex
-Calculator.apk
-Calculator.odex
STEP 9
Open the Command Prompt if you are a Windows user or the Terminal application if you are a Mac user and navigate to the tools folder of the Android SDK. Do not boot into recovery.
STEP 10
Type the following commands in order. We will use the Browser.apk as an example, and I will assume the file is on your desktop:
Code:
adb shell
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
Code:
exit
Code:
adb push C:\Users\YourUserName\Browser.apk /system/app
Code:
adb shell
Code:
chmod 6755 /system/app/Browser.apk
Code:
exit
Code:
adb reboot
STEP 11
Rinse and repeat!
Thanks to frankenstein\ for the kenel, laydros for getting me started in the right direction, BuglessPete for the .apk files, and most importantly to Kiraly for all his assistance.

I hope the push command is correct. On my Mac, when the files is on my desktop, the command is:
/adb push /Users/kpoz/Desktop/Browser.apk /system/app
Someone please let me know if the push command is not correct for Windows.

Great, thanks. I almost forgot to delete the "./" before "adb" when I was writing the tutorial. For whatever reason, on a Mac the command is ./adb, and on Windows it is simply adb.

Yup, same with Linux.

Just replaced the Sense Mms app with the stock one using this technique and it worked perfectly. Only thing I did differently was rather than deleting the stock files I just renamed them with a *.bak for easy restoring in case I ever need to.
Also I'm using Netarchy's kernel [FPS fix] and I did not need to do all the steps with the default.prop, I was able to mount the system folder with write permission.
And in case anyone is like me and just wants to replace the messaging app rather than all of them, I'll attach the apk for much quicker downloading. Its the apk straight out of the BuglessBeast ROM.

Push command is correct for windows. It may vary slightly depending on where you placed the apk files.

Glad it worked for you! Thanks for attaching the Mms.apk.
I'm glad that slow, unresponsive Sense Messages app is long gone. You know there is something wrong with your app (*cough, HTC, *cough) when you get a "Loading" message when opening a thread, regardless of how many messages are in said thread.

Oh didn't realize it was the same. I'm using DamageControl's ROM and assumed HTC had a different label for some reason. Thanks for clearing that up.
In any case, I got a few FCs here and there and MMS is failing to send on the DC ROM. I'll tinker with it some more and see if I can figure something out.
btw, if anyone is doing this on DC's ROMs then don't bother looking for any *.odex files since his rom is de'odexed.

Originally, Kiraly and I tried pushing these files and then using a shell to install them, but it resulting in a ton of force closes. We couldn't open any of the apps.
Regrettably, I'm not savvy enough to attempt to fix this issue for you if you are running a ROM like DC, especially a deodexed ROM. Best of luck to you.
Maybe the install command will work for you where it failed for me.
Try the following:
Code:
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
exit
adb push :\Users\YourUserName\Browser.apk /sdcard
adb shell
install /sdcard/Browser.apk /system/app
exit
adb reboot

[Guide] Step by Step Installing Hulu app with flash and stagefright fix

So sorry that there is so much clutter right here.
This is the order of things.
1. Obama's Fix for the Hulu app (AKA the Hex fix) ***I recommend this***
2. The Long Method starting from scratch (wrong flash player/no hulu app)
3. Fixing the Demon voices
4. Getting the website to work (You need Flash to use this)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW: Obama's>god has posted a new flashplayer ill upload it here but I take no credit go to his thread for more details.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794512
The zip file is called flash hex edited
***These are only instructions for getting the hulu and flash apps to work together. I have not created modified any of these files. So if there is a problem with them go find another version from around xda.***
***This works for some and not for others if it doesn't work for you try different tweaks or methods. This is the exact method that works for me with the exact files I used.***
***SORRY I CAN NOT FIX ALL OF YOUR PROBLEMS IF YOU HAVE FIGURED IT OUT PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO I CAN CORRECT THIS METHOD***
1. MOST IMPORTANT!!! Make a backup this is vital for if something goes wrong
2. Take the three files at the bottom of this thread and put them on your sd card
3. Open Titanium backup and uninstall flash

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4. Uninstall it but clear data first
5. Install flash-fix from your sd card
6. If it fails to install you have to use ADB Commands to fully remove it
6a) Connect phone and enable debuging mode.
6b) open a command prompt and go into your sdk/tools folder. run "adb reboot recovery"
6c) in the cmd prompt type in "adb shell"
6d) On the phone once its loaded up recovery in to partitions menu and mount /system
6e) in the adb shell type in "cd /system/app"
6f) to rename the flash installer type in "mv install_flash_player.apk install_flash_player.apkb"
6g) in ADB tell it "exit"
6h) on the phone unmount system and data (not sure if this is necessary or not)
Exit out of recovery and verify you don't have flash installed anymore under settings \ applications \ Manage Applications \ All applications.
7. Install flash again
8. Install Hulu application (this is the one that does landscape mode)
Time to fix the demon voices
9. Reboot into recovery and flash the hulufix.zip
10. Reboot and your done
I wish everyone the best of luck
PS: If the flash zip is giving sign error refer to the next method
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After all of this you are still getting the voices after all of this but flash is working try this it works every time for me.
This method only works for those with clockwork recovery
1. Unzip the contents of Hulu Working Stagefright.zip into your android-sdk tools folder
2. adb reboot recovery
3. In recovery go to partitions and select mount\system
4. adb remount
5. Than use these adb commands
Code:
adb push libstagefrighthw.so /system/lib/libstagefrighthw.so
adb push libstagefright_omx.so /system/lib/libstagefright_omx.so
adb push libstagefright_color_conversion.so /system/lib/libstagefright_color_conversion.so
adb push libstagefright_avc_common.so /system/lib/libstagefright_avc_common.so
adb push libstagefright_amrnb_common.so /system/lib/libstagefright_amrnb_common.so
adb push libstagefright.so /system/lib/libstagefright.so
6. In partitions menu unmount/system
7. adb reboot

Nice, this should take care of the questions most people are having. Glad to see you take all the info and condense it into a nice easy solution for everyone. I'm sure all the slackers trying to steal time from work will love ya for it

Nice work... plays well but the voices sound like they are running at 1/4 speed. I followed the directions to a "T". Not sure what else to do. Good try though. Maybe it's just my phone. FRI i'm running the CM6 finished ROM.

Thanks OP!

I can also confirm it is working on Fresh 3.2. I had to uninstall the Flash that came with Fresh 3.2 then downloaded the one from the market. Then I followed your instructions and it worked like a charm.
How exactly do you get the videos in landscape mode though?
Edit: scratch that last question I got landscape mode but mine is also pushed over to the right. I am using Fresh Evo 3.2 with nothing else.

Landscape mode is pushed over to the right on my phone. Anyway to fix?

Same on mine running stock HTC kernel.

About the only thing I can think of is try dragging the screen to the right. I've never had this issue and I've had this for a week now. You could try ava's hulu or the one from the hulu swype form
Sent from Evo via mysterious entity

How do I do landscape? I don't see the option, and it does not auto rotate. Sorry if I'm blind.

What is step 6d saying to do? do I type mount /system in adb shell? I don't see anywhere to input that on the phone once I'm in Recovery mode. I'm on the Amon Ra Recovery
Edit: If you're unable to get Titanium Backup to uninstall. If you uninstall the updates to flash in the market, then go to Titanium Backup, it'll uninstall.
Edit: Nope, this method didn't work.
Edit: LOL it work you just have to install flash with Astro after.

[How-To](UPDATED 11/1/10)Working Marketplace in 2.2 Emulator (no system.img)(ROOTED)

This all started out as an experiment to get my nandroid system.img file running in the adb emulator. Well sadly I haven't been able to do that (yet) but I have found something useful. I've Seen several people all over asking how to get a working marketplace app in 2.2 on the adb emulator. After a lot of researching (and trial and error) I've managed to get one. Here are the steps I've taken. (Steps 5 and 6 optional, you can just use the included build.prop if you prefer)
1) Create an avd running 2.2 (froyo,plenty of places explain how to do this so I won't)
2) Download the file (attached below, root files included)
3) Unzip to a location that's easy to remember and find.
4) Load your emulated phone (allow it to load fully)
5) enter this command in a command prompt/terminal window (make sure you "cd" to the directory where you extracted the files)
Code:
adb pull /system/build.prop
6) Remove or comment "ro.config.nocheckin=yes" (no quotes, might be able to just change it to "no" but I haven't tried it that way)
7) enter these commands
Winblows (I mean windows)
Code:
adb remount
adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
adb install GoogleServicesFramework.apk
adb install Vending.apk
adb install Gmail.apk (optional but sometimes signing in here lets the market sign in)
adb shell rm /system/app/SdkSetup.apk
Linux
Code:
adb remount
adb push ./build.prop /system/build.prop
adb install ./GoogleServicesFramework.apk
adb install ./Vending.apk
adb install ./Gmail.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/SdkSetup.apk
8) Sign in. If it works you're done if not reboot and try again, sometimes it takes 3 or 4 reboots to set. If your emulated phone has a data signal from your computer (you'll see a 3G and network icon in the notification area) just wait for it to sign in. The cancel button should grey out within a minute. If it says it can't connect restart the emulator and try again, be patient.
There is a known bug that not all apps show up in the marketplace. I'm not sure why so if someone here knows how to fix that by all means leave a post and let me know. If I see it I'll add it to the first post (provided it works of course )
Edit: Working on getting root on the emulator (just for the hell of it). So far I have su in the xbin directory and superuser.apk installed. Not 100% sure what else I need to do to get the su requests to go through though, I'll probably PM a more experienced member and post back when I have more. Got root? I do (got it working.) Here are the steps you need to take.
Rooting the standard android image on the emulator
1) Open a command prompt (cd to the directoy where you extracted the files)
2) enter these commands
Code:
adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock03 /system
adb push su /system/xbin/su
adb shell chmod 06755 /system
adb shell chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
adb install superuser.apk
That's it! You now have a rooted, market-enabled android emulator.
New! N00b-friendly method
1) create your avd
2) download the emulator files archive attached to this post
3) extract somewhere easy to find
4) open command prompt/terminal and cd to the extracted location
5) start your avd
6) Run your script (windows.bat or linux.sh)
7) sign into market and enjoy root!
Note:
You may have to chmod su again upon restarting the emulator.
To get root back simply run the re-root script for your OS (bat for windows,sh for linux)
To install busybox simply run the re-root script, it will automatically install if you're using the script to install on a new avd.

Wow nice....

Thank you the root resets after reboot, working on making it stick but its not hard to do it again, just start with the "-wipe-data" command and redo the root, market works after reboot though. Still working on getting a dumped system.img to boot, ill post that in its own thread when i get it. Glad you like this.
Sent from my ROOTED T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
Edit: see first post on how to get root back,no data-wipe!

so cool!! Good job man!

Thanks ^_^ let me know if you find any problems that I haven't already mentioned and I'll see if I can fix them or if they're just an emulator quirk.

Sorry for the double post but I wanted to let you all know busybox is now included! Installation can be performed through scripts (included in the "Emulator Files.rar" archive) or manually. If you wish to do it manually simply open the script in a text editor to see what's going on and enter the commands in a command prompt/terminal window.

I'm not able to make this work, not with a toolkit downloaded yesterday anyway.
Pulling of build.prop works, but pushing fails with a directory related error.
"adb shell" followed by "cd /system" and "ls -l" gives a list of files that does not include build.prop, neither as a file nor as a directory.
"ls -l build.prop" works though, and lists a file with 0644 permissions.
Install of all apks different from Gmail fails, with an error that says that those apks are already installed. Uninstalling them through adb doesn't work, netting instead a simple generic error.
Does anyone know whether I'm doing something wrong or Google has modified the emulator images so to render the Market workaround unusable? If so, where could I download an earlier version of the 2.2 system image?
Many thanks
Rocco

I actually had this issue as well. Try re-making the avd, worked for me. You could also try running the scripts to install, might work. If it doesnt post back and ill post the system.img from my sdk.
Sent from my ROOTED T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App

I have the same problem as ropi. Remade the avd several times with different properties, still no go.
I would really appreciate it if someone could upload a fully set-up avd somewhere.

I'll try again late this afternoon (I'm on CEST). Hope it works. If not, I'd be happy too if some kind soul would upload a link to a working avd
Thanks for the kind help
Rocco

I have no idea why people are having so many problems :/. I had the problem and once I remade the avd it went away. Try starting with the -partition-size 96 option and see if that helps. If not here are the files, just extract to your avd directory, it has the ini and img files you need and it's already setup. Just run re-root to get root back and sign into market and you're good to go.
http://hotfile.com/dl/79959332/3efbade/froyo-avd.rar.html
Edit: I just downloaded the latest revision and everything seems to be working fine :/ As I've said before try starting with -partition-size 96 and also try using the scripts I've provided. That should fix the issues, but if it doesn't there's always the hotfile link I've provided (or if you're just lazy lol)
Edit 2: also,just thought of this, make sure before you push the build.prop you adb remount. Pulling will work fine without doing that but pushing won't. No one said if they had done this and still received the errors so I'm trying to cover all bases. If remount fails try the adb shell mount command posted on the first page.

Thanks dbzfanatic, that avd worked great.

Glad it worked for ya. Let us know how everything works.

A lot of apps can not be found in the Market ... I cannot find Lookout....

Yeah, I've mentioned that,firs post. It's a known bug. Nothing I can do to fix it at the moment. You could download the apk on your phone then pull it then install it in the emulator. Bit of a roundabout way of doing things but it's all we can do on the emulator for the time being, at least from what I know.

Ok after a bit of poking around (sorry it took so long) I found out a bit about the market. It seems it's not just your region that it uses to show apps but things like your carrier, presence/absence of a SIM card, Android version, etc. It uses the filters to choose which apps to show and which to exclude (not showing an American user Japanese apps, not showing someone on Verizon T-Mobile apps, etc) so this explains part of the problem. I also found out that the SIM card and IMEI numbers were(are?) hard-coded into the emulator binary, changing these may allow us to see a few more apps. I looked through the binary file a bit and didn't find anything but I'll look more closely in a bit (new job, yay <- read as "groan"). I don't know how to emulate or spoof a carrier so that will still cut us back on some of the apps being seen. If anyone knows how to do this please post here and let us know! It would also be beneficial if a user who has already modified their IMEI and SIM numbers in the emulator to compare the apps list to the one you see in the standard, non-modded emulator binary and let us know if there is a difference or not. The more apps we can see in the marketplace the better!

Just wanted to confirm that I've tried Market Enabler a few days ago and it doesn't seem to work.

Alright thanks for the feedback. Ill keep working on it.

Despite several tries, I've so far been unsuccessful in using this method to install the marketplace on a 2.2 avd. Many thanks for having provided ready-made avds, then!
I've been able to install marketplace on the Galaxy Tab images provided by Samsung, though!

[MOD] Ubuntu *Working On Epic!!* NOW UPDATED TO V1.2 (03/13/2011)

IMPORTANT INFO
First I gotta give a shoutout to KellyLewis3985 because he's helped so much with modding the script to need less work for install, run faster, and have more programs work.
NEEDED!
Must Be ROOTED
1. Busybox (Preferrably the most updated version).
2. Superuser.
3. Android SDK (With knowledge on how to use it).
4. AndroidVNC (Search exactly that in the market. It will say "Android VNC Viewer").
5. Terminal Emulator (Also available in the market).
6. Patience when working with this.
UPDATE!!
Thanks to the persistance of urboy4mbx, we now know a little more information to get it working. While both KellyLewis3985 and myself were running custom ROMS, we didn't think about testing it for the stock build. So due to urboy4mbx's will to get this installed, we now know you MUST have a custom ROM installed. There's probably ways to get it to work on the stock build, but it's going to take a little more work. For now, make sure you have a custom ROM, download, and install the files, and if we got our scripts right, it should boot right up for you.
DOWNLOAD FILE!
NOTE: When you download this zip, you will need to extract it, and inside the extracted folder will be the folder "sdcard", DO NOT!! Place this entire folder in your "ubuntu" folder, simply open it and copy all the files from it to your "ubuntu" folder on your sd card.
Download File...
Ubuntu: Epic Edition v1.2 <---These are the files you will need to run Ubuntu. It will come with "bootlinux", "fsrw", "mountonly", "ubuntu.img", "ubuntu.sh", and "unionfs".
INSTRUCTIONS!
Options For Transferring Files To Phone
First Option...
Your first option of course is the easiest. Simply connect your phone to the computer, and mount your sd card. Once on the sd card, you are going to create a new folder labeled "ubuntu". Open this folder and transfer all the files from the downloaded zip file into this folder. After you have transferred the files to your "ubuntu" folder on the sd card, unmount the sd card, but leave the phone plugged in.
Second Option...
Your second option is "adb push". Here is the command for "adb push" if you cant, or don't feel like mounting your sd card.
First you need to create your destination folder. Do so with this set of commands.
cd C:/sdk/tools (Of course you might have your sdk folder in a different location, just cd to that location)
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard/
mkdir ubuntu
exit
Now you should be back at "C:/sdk/tools", or wherever you have your sdk folder located. Next, you push the files to your folder. In order to push the files, you first need to open the zip folder, and copy all the files into your tools subfolder in the sdk folder. Then push the files with this set of commands.
adb push bootlinux /sdcard/ubuntu
adb push fsrw /sdcard/ubuntu
adb push mountonly /sdcard/ubuntu
adb push ubuntu.sh /sdcard/ubuntu
adb push unionfs /sdcard/ubuntu
adb push ubuntu.img /sdcard/ubuntu
The "ubuntu.img" file may take a little longer, as it is the largest file that needs to be transferred.
NOTE: You cannot have your sd card mounted to use adb. You must be unmounted.
INSTALLATION
1. Ok, first thing you have to do is make sure you're still cd'd to "C:/sdk/tools". Now you need to type "adb shell". You will then most likely be prompted with the symbol "$". To continue, type "su" and the symbol should then change to a "#". NOTE!!!! After adb shell, YOU MUST TYPE "su", or the program will not boot!!!
2. Next you are going to cd into the Ubuntu folder on your sd card. (cd /sdcard/ubuntu) Once in, you're going to type the command "sh ./ubuntu.sh".
After that runs through, the next thing you're going to enter is "bootlinux". Once you get the prompt "[email protected]" you have successfully installed ubuntu on the Epic.
With this new update, there is no need to install any other files, as we have added them into the image file for you so it should do so automatically. If you have issues, let us know and we will try to fix it.
PREPARING YOUR VNC TO LOAD UBUNTU!
NOTE: There is no need to type this into your adb shell. This is for information purposes only, i've displayed the code and it's position at the bottom of this post along with screen shots to show you what it should look like.
With our new update, it's a lot easier to get everything up and running, but we don't have the capability of storing the vnc server to start every time we start up ubuntu, as it was causing issues. Until we get this issue fixed, you have to start the vnc server like this:
rm -rf /tmp/.X*
export USER=root
vncserver -geometry 1280x800 (Or whatever you would like your resolution to be. We have found this to be the nicest so far.)
Ok, at this point, everything should be set up to run.
NOTE: After the initial install of ubuntu on your phone, when you want to get it to start again, all you have to do is go into the terminal emulator, first type "su" to give it superuser permissions, then type "bootlinux", it will run through it's script and give you the "[email protected]" prompt. After you get that prompt, simply type the "rm -rf /tmp/.X*", "export USER=root", and "vncserver -geometry 1280x800" prompts and you can then start vnc again.
All the info you need for vnc will be as follows.
Nickname: "root"
Password: "ubuntu" (This is a set password, so it will be the same for everyone.)
Address: "localhost"
Port: "5901"
Change Log
Version 1.2
-Modified to make it ext4 compatible.
-Modified img to make it a little faster and more stable.
That's really all I had to do for this version, as it was working before.
Version 1.1
-Modified the scripts to run smoother, faster and use less memory while running.
-Added some custom wallpapers.
-Mozilla Firefox now works.
-Modified scripts to make Ubuntu more interactive.
-Modified the .img to install everything needed instead of you having to do it.
Issues
-Firefox randomly closes. Just reopen and restore.
-After using the vncserver Ubuntu doesn't truly shutdown without a reboot. Fix in progress.
-When wanting to start Ubuntu, after initial install, you have to go into the terminal emulator and type "su", then "bootlinux", allow that to complete giving you the "[email protected]" prompt. Then type "rm -rf /tmp/.X*", "export USER=root", and "vncserver -geometry 1280x800" to start the vnc server. After that you can go right into vnc and start Ubuntu up. We ARE currently working on a fix for this issue.
If you have any issues please post. Your input helps us make this better for you.
Here's a couple tricks we picked up.
1. You can use the arrow pad on your keyboard to direct the mouse.
2. If you long press on the screen and keep your finger on it, you can slide the mouse with your finger.
3. Long press on something, is a left click.
4. Double tap on something, is a right click.
5. To get symbols to appear, such as "-", you have to HOLD the function key while hitting the symbol.
And i'm sure there's more, but there's a couple for now.

After the installation and the first time you setup the vncserver. You have to use this command everytime to start the vncserver again.
rm -rf /tmp/.X*
export USER=root
vncserver -geometry 1280x800
New links.
Ubuntu

New Scripts.
http://db.tt/lDjNNQn
Were working on a fix for this.
Here is the latest update. I dont know if its going to work for everyone. I suggest creating a folder inside the ubuntu folder to put the scripts you have in. Unzip this and replace the scripts in the ubuntu folder.
Please make a backup.
If you have any issues please post. Your input helps us make this better for you.

As Of Right Now, The Internet Is Having Issues On This One, But Kellylewis And I Have Already Scripted Another Version Of Ubuntu And It Is Internet Compatible . We're Running It Now To Get The Bugs Worked Out And Will Have It Up Soon. After That, You Can Try To Download Whatever You Want, Considering It's An OS, And See If It Works... I Have Not Tested Downloading Anything.
The New Ubuntu Will Come As A Update, So Install This One The Way I've Instructed, And The Update Will Simply Replace The Files. The New One Is Faster, Internet Compatible, And Nicer Looking All Together. This One Still Works, But Please Be Patient For The Update. Thanks Everyone.

No matter what I do Im stuck here...
Also, If You Change The Port And It Says "VNC Cannot Connect" Or Something Like That, Back Out To The Terminal Emulator, And Hit "Exit" And "bootubuntu" Again And Change The "localhost" Number Again. Whatever The "localhost" Number, Change The Port Number To Match. Ex: "localhost:4" > "5904", "localhost:7" "5907".

I get "VNC connection failed!" on any port.
TIA for any help! thanks.

First, Exit From The Terminal Emulator, And Open It Back Up. Type "su" Then "Bootubuntu" Without Any Other Commands. It Should Boot It Up Still And Then When You Get The Localhost Prompt, Type "Exit" And "Bootubuntu" Again. This Time It Should Come Up Localhost:2 ...As Long As You Copied My Code, It Should Have Put The VNC Server In The Boot File So When Ubuntu Was Booted Up, It Would Automatically Start The Server. Anyways, When You Get "localhost:2" Change Your Port To 5902. Do That And Let Me Know What Happens.

most excellent. hooks up without a glitch or a hangup or anything!
is lxde the only desktop you have used? would other replacement desktops work? im not saying lets throw gnome on there...but i wonder how it would run...takes a minute to get used to but runs like a champ!
so could this really the first step and getting the phone to fastboot into a ubuntu partition?

Just a noob question before I start... This only runs after you've booted it from the terminal emulator? As in your phone is still running all its original phone software (and by this I don't mean stock software, just phone software in general, custom or otherwise) and this is something you can boot on top of that? Maybe my terminology is wrong here, but that's at least how it appeared to work to me and I just wanted to check! Thanks!

Whats the deal with the "Confidential Motorola Poperty" phones?

Hello, well today i was going through the second hand market on my town for a phone and i saw this mb865, impecable but as is.. with no charger cables or anything whatsoever.. the price was cheap enough so i got it..
After getting to my home i noticed that on the back under the cover and on the display at the right side of the screen it has some engravings saying this phrase.
"Confidential Motorola property not for sale"
so whats the deal with this phone? is it a prototype? or what?
Im from Mexico and the phone has a Iusacell rom.
What do you guys think?

If i were you, i would go to that store again, and return it. Perhaps you'll have some bad experiences with that phone, because maybe it's not the final release and may had some changes than ours phone.

And on the other hand, it may be an engineering device with an unlocked bootloader....

No idea about sim-unlocking it, I doubt that you will be able to though if it is carrier locked. Have you tried different sim cards in it?

enable usb debugging, open command prompt, go to the folder you have adb in, and type the following post the output.
Code:
adb shell
su
cat proc/omap_dev_type
if you dont have adb, just download android terminal from google play and type in the same except 'adb shell'. of course, your phone has to be rooted.

What is this Iusacell ROM he mentioned? & I hope anyone can post the root file for Gingerbread & ICS and "eetu' can use it to root as per GB or ICS he would have on his phone & for then executing the above command on android terminal .
Eetu, you need to follow above instructions and advise what output you get on screen. Your phone may be one of a kind most special and our developers need all help to unlock bootloader & they may get in touch with you based on your reply that is sought & until then preferably do not alter stock settings by flashing custom ROM's, Mod's etc. We need all help we can get. Thanks!

Iusacell is a service provider from México (use mostly CDMA pones), the "oficial Iusacell rom" stayed in GB not ICS (http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php)
There is a lot of chance that will be a engineer phone, but will be the same case of the other Atrix 2 with unlocked bootloader.

Sorry guys i have had some in house problems.. but im here now..
Well blast i have probably ****ed this up now.. you see i was trying to root the phone in order to see things under the hood, but the usual superonelick, methond didnt work ( i tried other 2 thati cant remember they were mostly sripts with a runme.bat file on them)...
So with no avail.. i decided to flash the rom to a LATAM stock GB rom.. after i did.. i tried superoneclick and voila...
I havent been able to tinker with it past then.. but now im afraid of what i did.. ****..
So tell me do i try to reflash the iusacell rom( it is avaliable).. do i leave it like this.. or what?
on the meantime i have uploaded some pics of the phones messages of confidential property.. for you to see.. and im checking the ADB stuff.. getting the terminal emulator from the playstore as im typing this..
Let me know how to proceed..

Or use a root explorer and check /system/xbin and/or /system/bin for a file called "su"... And let us know..

If you have no su binary file in xbin or bin, then it's going to be difficult for things to recognize root.
You opened Superuser and tapped to check for binary updates in settings?
You could also try to install SuperSU instead..
Another thing to try: get busybox installer from Play Store and update busybox.
And about adb debugging - go to settings>developer options (or maybe security on GB?) - and enable USB debugging.
Plug in your phone to your computer by USB. Switch to each USB connection type on your phone (mass storage, mtp, camera..) and wait to let the drivers install if they haven't already.
Open a command prompt on that folder that contains adb.exe - do this by holding shift and right-click on the folder and choose open command prompt from the list (or just open the command prompt and type cd C:\Users\Desktop\1-click_exploit or whatever your path is to adb).
Type adb devices
If you get a serial number and the word "device" as output, then you should be OK to use adb
