Hello I rooted my Tmobile US Sensation and installed Insertcoin rom. I really like the Rom. I need to download a banking app from the market however when I try to it tells me this app is not availible to our device (HTC Sensation z710e) I understand that it thinks I am using a Euoropean Sensation because thats what the rom is setup for. I have done some research and thought I could change a file to reflect I have a TmobileUSA Sensation instead of the z710e... I have ES file explorer so I can edit a file. From reading here I thought it was the build.prop file but that doesn't have anything in it that looks correct to me.
Anyways I am sure this is an easy fix any help would be greatly apprecited
This can be done by altering the following line in: /system/build.prop
ro.product.model=
From whatever it was to: ro.product.model=HTC Sensation Z710e (Or whichever you want)
Reboot and all is well.
Download Market Enabler from the market and it will enable you to use any market yuo want to download your prefered software.

I changed mine from ro.product.model=HTC Sensation Z710e
to
ro.product.model=HTC Sensation 4G
Also tried Market Access and Market Enabler non of these will let me download my banking app. It still thinks im using the europe one. I have tried rebooting.. Any other ideas?
Solved this on my own by copying the build.prop from Android Revolution rom and putting it into the insertcoin rom. Not sure if this has any negative side effects that I don't know about but it's working now.
I would suggest using a program such as notepad++ and comparing the 2, just to see if there are any major differences
It's the ROM fingerprint that you need to change as that's what is checked. You just need to edit that line in the build.prop to the one from your region's ROM

Got it Thank You! I was more questioning the lib directories because I copied all those over as well. It has files like librilswitch.so likneto.so libhtc_rilswith.so libganril.so I put these in the insertcoin rom as well. Anyone know what these are?
Thanks for the help guys

What would that be for UK as I'm having these issues?
Is it working with yours?
This kernel is available inside Viper Hub for download. I see many prefer this kernel over Beastmode. My question is- it's a direct download and install inside the Hub.
It offers install option and then prompts an obvious warning about possible bootloops etc. Have any of you installed it from Viper Hub ? I've already made a recovery of my current setup. Just wanting to see if the kernel install goes smoothly. Viper's faq section says it doesn't use ramdisk properties so it can be installed easily.
I'm just making sure before I click the install button and possibly spit up my egg nog if I bootlooped.
Thanks in advance,
Jon

Pretty new to the kernel world but I read up before changing mine.
I installed ElementalX and it installed successfully, rebooted and all was fine. However, when I looked on SetCPU for info, it still showed 1512. When I looked in Viper Hub under CPU, it wouldn't go past 1512 (not using both CPU apps at the same time obviously). It also had custom kernel portions greyed out.
What am I missing here?! I set everything to default when I went through the kernel installer as well with 1.7 as default. Shouldn't I be able to see statistically that the options ElementalX should be providing?
Any education here is appreciated!
Jon
Any advice???

no bro you can... I'm not sure though since I haven't used viper in a while and I'm on old hboot... But the problems some people been having with custom kernels is that they use aroma installer..
See what happens is, aroma starts, and gives you options on how much overclock you want, tweaks, S2W, etc etc... It creates a boot.img based on your choices... Lemme download viper, I'll pull my boot.img for you so you can do it through flashgui. Sounds good?
If so, how high you want your max freq to be?

I am on 2.4.0. I installed ElementalX through the Venom Hub. I went through all the installation selections and used default for most (chose not to have s2w) and I rebooted through twrp. When I checked everything, there was no evidence the kernel installed!! Still says Linux kernel, can't clock over 1512 either. I'm on firmware version
2.20.

Well now that were home from some Christmas family functions, I couldn't wait to mess with my phone. Hahaha.
I went into twrp and flashed the kernel again low and behold, it worked the 2nd time. Not sure why the 2nd time but I'm not complaining. Now I can access all the features of ElementalX.
Time to learn more!!
Merry Christmas!!

Just go do s off first
Hold power button and volume down until lights stop flashing. Release power while continuing to hold volume down. You will see hboot version in boot loader screen.

If you already don't have adb and fastboot set up download this to your computer put it somehwere wherever... Now from the s off thread you'll the one x zip place it in this folder and you see the s off thing EXTRACT it to the folder and then do just copy paste the commands... And the time it has three commands in one box rememebr do each one by one
So every now and then (usually every 5-10 minutes) my android.process.acore goes rogue and doesn't allow me to access my messages or my dialer. My messaging apps (chomp sms and stock app) force close when I try to open them. I occasionally get the android.process.acore has stopped error, but not too often. I've done factory resets (with and without restoring data), clearing contacts and contacts storage, wiping cache, and fixing permissions. The one thing that does work is opening the contacts app and then killing it through the stock task manager. I'm thinking I may have a corrupt contact or something. Any ideas on how I can permanently fix this? My phone info is in my signature. Thanks!

Anyone? I think I narrowed the problem down to linked contacts, maybe one number is put in twice for two different people and that could be causing the reading errors.

Yep I redownloaded, reflashed, and wiped data. It has to be something going haywire with one of my contacts, I just have to figure out what it is. If i kill contacts once it happens the problem goes away for a few minutes then returns

Here's a logcat of me opening Chomp SMS and it force closing as a result of the error. It black screens in the process as well
This is a bit of a bump but i just tried wiping contacts storage again and having no one's number in my phone at all (sync off) and the problem still occurs. But still the issue can be resolved by killing contacts even when nothing is in it at all.
Edit: it also occurs in safe mode, how would I determine if i have a corrupt contact?

Did you try the new apk that i uploaded, which all you need to do is go into a file manager click on it and install it. After I saw the update and posted the first apk, I found HTC had the apk on their website.
Yep, I downloaded the new apk and it still occurs. It doesn't happen as often as before though (now every 10 minutes rather than every few seconds)

It has to be something with the new bases, because I have a stock telus rom, that i have striped out some APKs that I dont use, and I never have that problem. I will send you a PM in the morning with my stock telus rom, and see if you still have problems. I am dead tired and I dont want to wait for upload tonight

Copy the original build.prop to your sd card and edit and save it there. Rename it to build.prop.new then copy it back into /system. Delete the original build.prop (take note of the permissions first) and then rename the edited one from build.prop.new back to build.prop, set the permissions and reboot your phone.

I installed ViperXL on my HTC One X and I was going to install ElementalX kernel on my one X and when it semi bricked I went through the viperXL installer and installed the Stock XL kernal and ever since then it's had a lot of random reboots on whaterver Rom I put it on.
I'm on CleanROM now for one X and it still reboots.
It thinks it's a one XL and I have no idea what to do.

Ive reflashed roms many times. Im pissed cause it keeps reseting and its annoying. So Im trying to use the official RUU Updater to see If that will work, Also my USB is not connecting to my pc corectly. I can only add music or pics from the htc sync manager and its ping me off.
Ok I'd suggest you try using the RUU then, but you'll need to diagnose why it isn't connecting properly via usb first, the last thing you want is for it to disconnect half way through the RUU process.
PS. I understand you're frustrated, but profanity isn't allowed on XDA.

My USB is now functioning as it should but it is now thinking it is a camera instead of a storage unit untill clicked on, Then I see internal storage.
And what is this wierd N in a square by my 4G?
Weird N = NFC. Unfortunately Samsung's had that for a while, and I think Sony and LG have to have that in their notification bar as well. It just means your NFC is toggled on.
Which is a real shame. NFC barely takes any battery power (unless you're back-to-back with another ICS+ NFC phone 24/7) and should always be kept on. Sucks that more space is wasted to the notification bar just to notify you that it's ready for action.

Were you on an old version of TWRP? Because TWRP 2.5 was known to always fail flashing ViperXL and other ROMs (CleanROM and others). More recent versions of TWRP (2.6) work fine. So it may have been the fact that you had to re-install TWRP that made the difference.
