[Q] Play book down grade/rooting - General Questions and Answers

Ok basically I want to get the andriod market or play shop as its now called onto my Black Berry Play Book. My first issue is I cant get the damn thing to down grade. I've been trying to do this for about 7 or 8 hours. I've tried several methods none have which have worked. My BBPB is currently version 2.0.07971 and I'm trying to down grade to 2.0.0.4869 so I can root it and put the android market on here.
Can anyone who has gone from my BBPB version to the one i want tell me how to do it please?
All help much appreciated

[Q] a question about moto milestone missing android market

Hello
So, I'm a total beginner, I only know about something called ( android ) 3 weeks ago, And I bought my milestone before 10 days from now.
However, my milestone doesn't have a market in it, the icon doesn't even exist in my phone, i tried looking for solutions on Google, called the Moto service line in my country, but they all said that it's normal, and that the whole market isn't allowed in Saudi Arabia yet, but three days ago my brother bought a Samsung Galaxy S and the market was there and he always brag about the application in front of me and I'm always like ( I wanna kill you right now ) while putting a stupid smile on my face so that he don't get the feeling that his device is better than mine.
however let's not stray from the problem.
I downloaded some alternative markets, like Applanet and Slideme, they were ok but still there are some cool apps I didn't find, and yesterday I saw the "Appbrain" but I couldn't download it because I need to access the market first, but luckily I found an .apk and I downloaded it, but it needed an update which need an access to the market !, so, I'm here, taking a shot.
can anyone tell me how to install an android market on my milestone plz ?
anyone ?

[Q] E FUN Next2 (Nextbook2) Rooting?

Hey y'all.... just got the E FUN Next2 (Android 1.5 eReader) that doesn't even have the real Android Market on there. I'd like to just simply wipe it and put a vanilla install of Android 2.1 or 2.2 whichever is fine with me. However, I can't find anyone out there who's even tried to root this bloody thing. Y'all have any helpful hints or could even point me in the right direction? Here is are the specs for the eReader http://www.nextbookusa.com/productdetail.asp?product_id=1
HELP ME, OBEWON! HELP ME!
Hey, i also just got one, I have been basically searching for the same thing you have with no luck.
I have asked at nextbookusa if they planned on having any sort of update for a newer version of droid and they said not anytime soon.
So i would like to find a way to install droid like you or im thinking of returning it for a dif one.
I second that request!
Got an E FUN Next2 as a gift and I can't leave well enough alone.
Android 1.5 just isn't cutting it! HELP!
Lets go people, thought you all would right on top of this...
I have a programming background and I'd be willing to help if I knew where to start at least.
No headway. Need help!
Ok, since this if my first Android device (received as a gift), I'm not going to give up on it! I've been reading, here on XDA and other forums, and found a ton of other information, but nothing seems to pretain to the Next2.
Found a bit of hope on a thread following the Next3 on androidtablets.net (I'm still a low level forum user, so not outside links yet.) Unfortunately, I tried running the generic root tool Universal Androot with no success (still no root access).
I'm also having trouble due to the fact that the pad has no PHYSICAL home, back, settings, etc buttons. It seems to negate a lot of the basic rooting applications out there.
I realize this tablet isn't the most amazing and spectacular device available, but it has some potential, and I'd like to see what it can do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The more and more I mess with this Next2 the more I figured I got what I paid for. The is a great unit for reading books and minor bs apps..Most of the apps will install but won't work...And most of the apps that are available are bs and have no use...lol This site is usually hot on new gadgets and help the common folk out...Please figure out how to turn this KIA into a Hyundai...lol
So you can root this with Universal Androot 1.6.2 Beta 5. This gives you perm or temp root access. I haven't seen a rom for the device though. I really want to get rid off the the extra os junk.
has anybody had anyluck with the next2?

[Q] Mid tablet help

hi all. and also a thanks to you guys who started and run xda you have saved me before now.
i have a few questions regarding my tablet and im hopeing some can help me. here i go
my mother bought me a tablet. im a pc guy but know nothing about linux and from what i read its basically it. the first problem is how can i find my tablet brand name type i know its called Mid. i am happy with it tbh it runs well and does what i need of it too which is browse the net and have pretty wallpapers atm . soon i want to get a odb program to plug it into my car as i have the hardware to do it and i know it has some software out there to do it. im having issues with play store saying cant verify my account or something to that effect due to me having a samsung galaxy ace and loggin in on my tablet is not being recognised so it wont let me download . even tried creating a new account and that didnt work neither same error. but i can still download on my phone. the tablet model just says softwinerEvb but i cant find much help on that. so my thoughts where to root it back up the o/s then try some stuff incase i broke it lol. but i cant seem to be able to root it. cant seem to back it up . and cant get on to play. not being able to use the play store is my biggest issue. if i could then i would be very happy. i was thinking that maybe changing the o/s might help?? but it seems that its the model its self is not supported?? so can i kinda trick things into working ?? ps i did try something called gapps but it didnt seem to help .
many thanks.
Mine wont boot

can't get rid of demo app, please help!

Hi , im new here and really need some advice.
I purchased a Z3 this week and bought it second hand , even though it is new but without box. I found out it has the dreaded demo app installed because i think it was ex-display in a phone shop. Once i plug in the charge it deletes my photos,contacts,apps etc. and comes up with the demo video. Iv'e tried the codes people usually use and done something else using the computer someone suggested ,but nothing works. I was thinking about rooting the phone but after looking on forums i can't seem to find anything to explain how to root it or even if it's possible yet because its a new phone. Iv'e tried to delete the app it has but it just keeps coming back. So need to find someone way that is like rooting the phone to get access to delete it permanently. If anyone can help , would be much appreciated. Thanks:good:

Unlock Apps in Play Store

Hey guys, i really need your help. Hope this is the right subforum, but I thought with needed help / a question, I'm pretty ok in here.
So whats the problem... It might sound pretty easy just from the title, it actually isnt..
So what exactly I want access too?
I think you guys all know Pokemon GO... I'm from germany, so I had do take the APK. The problem about this was, my phone is a Galaxy S3, so Android 4.3 cap.
Long story short, i rooted it and flashed cyanogenmod on it, so i have 4.4.4, even changed the Kernel so it can run smooth.
And it did worked out. So the last days i was playing Pokemon go all day long and was having fun.
Now the problem:
Today, Pokemon GO came out to the Android App Store, and I want access to the regular download with updated coming in frequently, without installing every update manually (ok to be honest, I think all this took me much more time then I ever would need to download and install all future updates of this game, but I am pretty lazy)..
The App Store just tells me I dont have access to it with my device.. So I googled again for hours..
I used Market Helper and hoped I get access.. nope.. I changed the build.prop so my phone now "is a galaxy s5".. doesnt work either.. and yes, i deteled cache and files frequently, restarted the phone..
So right now I'm desperate and have no idea how to fix this problem. I hoped someone in here has had the same problem or knows how to fix it..
I'm looking forward to your help and thanks for just reading about my problem.
Cheers
I feel your pain.
Having exacty the same problem. Even tried market helper. Btw, I am running the s3 with the newest cyanogen nightly (1 week old) and Android 6.0.1.
Maybe the playstore checks for stuff like available ram, and that is the reason why it is not working. Our phone only has <1GB and the game wants phones with >2GB as far as I know.
