Simply download a froyo asop rom. Any will work except cyanogenmod. Extact the zip, go into system app, and look for browser. Drag and drop onto root of your sd, get some sort of file manager app from the market, and install it. I think this will work, but i have never tried it.
Until you drag the file onto your sd, this is all on the computer.

Can I get the link to download the file

can someone post up the link to download the stock browser please

I will once I get home and test it out to see if it works. Check back in 30 minutes.

..........thanks

im pretty sure it wont work. i put the browser.apk on the sd card and when i went to astro to install it, it asked me to uninstall the current browser. so i think the only way it might work is if you rooted the phone and then pulled the sense browser and pushed the aosp browser

o i see thank anyway

pushing the browser.apk doesnt work either

how about you just rename the browser.apk thats already in the system\app folder and any odex file in the \system\app folder then install it with the installer app from the market or install command via adb......
hhmmm ????

[Q] Need help tethering G Tablet to Moto Droid 1

Need help tethering G Tablet to Moto Droid 1
OK, I have tried everything to get this to work. I have tried TnT gapps patch in boot recovery and side loading and no go.
I have tried editing wpa_supplicant file in wifi folder both manually and with a mod that used g script as a toggler between infrastructue and ad hoc, no go.
Droid will ad hoc to Apple iPod and iPad and laptop running Windows XP with no problems, just can't figure out how to get the Droid 1 and G Tablet to ad hoc and also want it to ad hoc and connect to my router in infrastructure mode. G Tablet does connect to infrastructure router with no problem.
G Tablet and Droid 1 are both rooted. I am using Root Explorer to edit G Tablet. I am using Wireless Tether on the Droid 1. I have tried Barnacle too. Nothing works to get the two to link together.
I want to continue to use the stock UI on the G Tablet.
Here is device specs:
G Tablet: Stock UI rooted
Android OS Ver. 2.2
Tap UI Ver. 1.1-3389
Kernel Ver. 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty
hudson(at)tapntapsvn
Build Num. FRF91
Droid 1: Stock rooted
Android Ver. 2.2.1
Baseband Ver. C_01.43.01P
Kernel Ver. 2.6.32.9-g68eeef5
android-build(at)apa26 #1
Build Num. FRG3D
(Parenthesese around (at) in Kernel Ver. due to new user rules about links)
I have been at this for days and can't figure it out. If someone has a true step by step or can offer any help to get this going it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Brian

install the 3389 performance pack. This fixes adhoc and installs gapps.

Read this to understand standard recovery if you dont have clockwork recovery

Read this to install the right clockwork if you want to make your life easier.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
The first post of each thread explains everything. The biggest reason to flash clockwork recovery is to repartition your sdcard to avoid problems later. There are a couple of known issues with the stock TnT 3389.
The tab seems to get stuck at a low cpu speed when waking from sleep. It takes a reboot to fix this. You can flash a custom kernel to fix this.
The tab will delete your media files from your external sdcard if you don't put an empty file named ".nomedia" in whatever folder your media files are in.

Well so much for that. I installed the enhancement pack and now have zero conectivity and don't know what to fix now. At least with all of the other mods it was easy to back out of.
WTF!!! I am about ready to take it to the shop and run it through the table saw.
How do I recover it now???

P.S. I read all of those threads you posted before I posted. I tried to install the generic one before but not the enhanced one. How do I recover it???

Read the update.zip thread I linked.
Install clockwork and install the 3389 update stock rom. Wipe data/cache
If you don't want to install clockwork then download the 3389 update and the clockwork 0.8 zip.
Unzip clockwork 0.8 zip to the root of a micro sdcard
Delete the update.zip file
Open the recovery folder
Open the command file in the recovery folder
Make sure the line has "SDCARD2" and NOT "SDCARD"
You can edit it. Make sure if you do it doesn't add a .txt extension to it
Rename the 3389 update zip file to "update.zip" and place that on the root of the micro sdcard
Insert micro sdcard in the tablet
Boot the tablet holding the Power/Vol+
Hold the Vol+ until you see " Recovery key pressed"
Let it install and reboot and you should be back to stock.
Install the performance pack the same way.
If you install clockwork recovery you don't need the recovery command file to flash roms. I can't recommend strongly enough to install clockwork recovery to do this and to wipe data/cache

I think your problem has a very simple solution because I have had this problem after the wifi teather app recently updated all I had to do is go into the wifi feather app and select a channel I choose channel 11. Then I went into settings on the tablet and wifi network I pressed menu advanced and choose channel 11 also this fixed my issues hopefully it will fix yours I too use a Motorola Droid 1 and a G Tablet my tab is on vegan5.1 with pershoots latest kernal my D1running the latest bugless beast with jdlfg 1125 Kernel

I was able to install clockwork mod so far but I am still working on getting the enhancement to load. It aborts install. I will try to re download it.

Neither enhancement works. Clockwork mod works, it starts to load the fine then quits with a prompt, (bad) cannot load file. 3389 and 3452 both come up bad. I re downloaded both several times form all of the sites still hosting it. Some of the sites had the file removed.
Why is this not working? I followed it to a tee. Same procedure as installing clockwork mod. Command file is formatted correctly and directs to the proper folders and drive. (SDCARD) I also cleared the cache and did a backup.
Any other suggestions? Thanks for the help so far. It at least installed clockwork mod. I did at least figure out how to return the wifi settings to allow infrastructure to work. Every time I try to install this it skews the file and permissions. I can at least return it so it is still useable but would really like to get the ad hoc to work.
I also tried WPA, no encryption, changing channels, changing IP addresses, and just about every other setting on this.
Tablet has original OTA update from 12/25/10 then rooted.

Once clockwork is installed you no longer need the recovery/command. Make sure the 3389 performance pack is a .zip and not a .rar. If it is .rar then you need to "unrar" it.
Place it on the internal sdcard and select it in the clockwork recovery menu. Don't use Rom Manager.

None of this is working. Error comes up:
E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted
I have tried to re download the files, I have just renamed them, I have pasted them into an already labeled zip folder, nither option works.
I use the manual install on CWMod so I know I am choosing the correct file andf it just says that it is bad.
Is it possible that the download file is no good? When you said to "unrar" it is that simply changing the file name or is it copying to another folder or extracting the file??? If the file is bad then I am just going in circles but if I am doing something wrong (which I don't think so) then I am missing something.
After a reboot I need to go into the wifi folder to open permissions for the wifi to connect again and then it will connect to my router but not the droid.

I dunno if this will help but i remember on my droid it never liked working with a files named update.zip in cwm.. change the name of the file and then apply it

"rar" is another file compression like zip. On windows download 7zip. It will allow you to "unrar" ie "unzip" the file. I just checked and the performance pack is a .rar file. You can't rename it to .zip. You must extract it using the unrar file extraction tool. There will be a .zip inside that that you can flash

That was it!!!! Thanks for all of your help and for replying. The 7zip did the trick. I was unaware that the zip format was different.
Very cool. Works on Droid 1 wireless tether.

if the files you are downloading are in RAR format, you cannot simply rename them to ZIP. You will need to use a WinZip, 7Zip, or some other utility to extract the update.zip file from the file you downloaded.
Once you have extracted update.zip to your PC, you can then connect your g tablet via USB and connect that way. Copy update.zip to the folder of your choice and then reboot into cwm to install the update.

Ok, the new flash works, ad hoc now works and it added the market and the stock android camera and some other things. Here is the new issue and I will just continue in this thread since one relates to the uprade of another.
After the upgrade, the internal camera will take pics an are viewable in the "gallery" but any jpg loaded into the tablet via usb or e mail are not visible. He gallery shows a blank thumbnail and opens blank file as i the image was there but no actual pkc. I saved the pic in DCIM, camera, thumbnails, andro, sdcard, etc... and the gallery will pick up all of these files but displays blank thumbnails and blank photos.
I realize that th original camera and viewer were different than the android camera and gallery. Th problem is that I want to be able to view e mailed photos and imported photos like it used to. As I said it does store and view pics taken with the internal camera but that is not of real importance here but a fix woud probably fix all of it.
Anybody have a patch or fix for that that would not undo any of the other changes? Also, a patch to usb tether a droid or other mass storage device?
Thanks in advance.

You can attach a fat32 external HD to the Gtab. The externally powered ones seem to work more consistantly.

[Q] HELP rooted Nexus S w/ Cyanogen mod 9

I rooted my phone (nexus s i9020a at&t) and have superuser and downloaded rom manager. I had no idea how to figure out how to flash a rom onto my device on my mac so I downloaded one of the many cyanogen mod 9's directly in rom manager. The rom loaded up perfectly and runs smoothly except there is no app market. When I try to go back into rom manager it force quits out.
I am very new to rooting and hacking into my phone and tried searching for hours and can't figure out what to do. If anyone knows how I can just flash a new updated version of cyanogen mod 9 without using rom manager that would be awesome. I really just need a step by step way to do it on the mac because every time someone posts a rom .zip file it downloads as a folder with random stuff in it and in recovery mode in my phone I don't know how to go about flashing it. So confused. Any help would be so appreciated.
Jess

Check your PM. I couldn't post links as it would have been my first post.

cm9 issue
thanks did you get my replies to your pm? i can't figure this out haha

download cm9 and the gapps add-on(with your phone) in the first post of the cm9 thread. boot into recovery, fimd your rom and gapps files, flash cm9 there, then flash the gapps(google apps), then reboot. you do not need rom manager.

Hmm cm9 does not come pre loaded with android app market so u will have to download the latest gapps from other posts in this forum... then copy it into ur phone from ur computer...then after going to cwm recovery use the volume up down buttons to scroll and the power button to choose...u will have to remember where u pasted the gapps file and u will have to navigate to it ...choose the gapps file and scroll down to yes to flash it then go back and reboot...that's it u will now have google apps in ur nexus s...Remember u do not need to open the downloaded gapps zip file as there is nothing u can do by opening it...good luck and happy flashing...

Must not of searched that much if you overlooked that. Gapps is separate. Read the post fully, please.

okay so i downloaded the g apps file and its a folder on my desktop with a few other folders within with random files. i go to recovery on my phone mount my phone drag this folder to my mounted phone. then i go back and do i do instal zip from sdcard? or do i do apply update from sd card? this is where I'm stuck idk where to go from here. if i click install zip from sdcard it makes me navigate and i find the name of the folder but it just brings me to the smaller folders and little individual files it's not just one big file but a bunch of little ones so i can't choose the whole thing.
so im confused
edit: so i guess on my mac when i download the zip file it must unzip it during download and becomes a folder. so i tried compressing the folder back into zip format and go back into recovery and load it but it says installation aborted.

How to modify ROM (add/remove stuff)?

I've searched all over the net but to no avail.
I want to add some apps into the /system/app folder of the ROM, but whenever I flash the ROM (I did all the procedures - sign the ROM and all), the apps do not work. Instead, they force close everytime I try to open them, and in App Manager, they have absolutely no storage at all - they're blank. 0MB.
I extracted the 31/08/2012 nightly build of CM10 for Samsung Galaxy Mini, then edited all that I needed before compressing and signing the .zip file. However, that doesn't seem to work, although I can flash the ROM.
Is there a way where I can add in my own apps (as system apps into /system/app) and remove selected ringtones(.ogg)? A tutorial would very much be appreciated! Thanks in advance

For the ringtones, you can simply delete them. For the apps, you need to make sure they're compatible with your Android version/device and they must also have the correct permissions.

What sort of apps are you trying to add?

Things like replacing Trebuchet with Launcher Pro, basically replacing apps of my choice and adding in some more like Go Keyboard.

Blackberry home

This is NOT my work I'm only posting a link to the original thread. Fully working! The keyboard is weird but kind of cool.
How I installed. I downloaded every file, I wanted to try it all. then extracted them all to the same folder. Then I copied the priv-app folder into System root/system using FX Explorer (you need root) any root Explorer will do the trick. After that just reboot. With the launcher you can use icon packs as well!

Don't forget to thank @entrysky for all his hard work.

Mentions that CWM or TWRP Recoveries are needed?

I just extracted the zips then copied the priv-app into System using a root explorer and rebooted. Worked for me, I'm guessing flashfire might work but could take longer to do.

Hope this helps.

Still not quite sure exactly what you are doing here. Each Zip has it's own priv-app folder. What exactly are you combining before putting it into the system folder?
FYI: Flashing zips in order with Flashfire didn't work.

I extracted each one into the same folder, so all the apps ended up in the same priv-app folder as seen in this pic. Then I copied the priv-app folder.

Here is a step by step guide with pictures.
1) download the files.
2) get RAR from Google play. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarlab.rar
3) open RAR and go to where you download the files, select all the files you want (see first PIC)
4) click the extract button and tick overwrite without prompt. (See PIC 2) then click OK.
5) using a root explorer open the files you just extracted i use FX
6) open the system folder (see PIC 3)
7) copy priv-app (see PIC 4+5)
8) go to your system(ROOT) (see PIC 6)
9) scroll down to the system folder then open it (see PIC 7)
10) in FX there is a padlock at the top to allow read/write click this (see PIC 8, 9 and 10)
11) Go to clipboard then paste select merge/overwrite (see PIC 11 and 12)
12) Long press the middle button on the back of your phone in the middle of volume up/down and select reboot.
13) click thanks

Very much appreciate the effort! Unfortunately, even though I followed your directions perfectly, I still don't have any of the apps. I'm not sure if using flashfire to flash the files previously screwed something up.

That's strange? Did you download 1-4 as these are the main files you need. As you can see its worked for me. Have you tried to fix permissions?

Thank you for sharing. BTW, have you tried BB HUB? also, what about permissions? Maybe I missed but you didnt mentioned anything about it.

I've used the hub its quite handy having all your notifications in one place, also the password keeper is very handy for storing and generating passwords.
Permissions need to be 644 there are apps which will fix it all automatically for you or you can do it manual set to read/write then read and read. See PIC

I have copied resources, productivity edge, services, launcher and hub, but nothing works. Changed permissions for folders and files.. I took only priv folders from zips and coppied to system..

That's strange, i can't be the only one it works for? Did you download the BlackBerry exchange services fixed?

priv folder in fixed zip is empty, no apk inside... btw I extradited it on PC, then transferred to sd.

Strange? I've zipped what I used and uploaded it to my Google drive there is also 2 apps in the app folder I didn't bother with these t.b.h. I've only just noticed them lol. Try extracting the zip the copy app and pri-app into your root system folder let me know if it works? You might have a corrupt download or 2.
