Hi guys,
I bought a tablet from the guys over at Allview. The price was decent and the tablet is nice, but the douchy problem is that they did not include the android marketplace. I need it.
The device runs a eclair (android 2.1) update 1. Is there any way to install the marketplace without rooting the device ? and If not, can the device be rooted ? It has no phone capabilities (no sim, no gps, no camera) so I have 0 ideea what tool to use, especially because i really have no ideea what happends when rooting.
The little i got informationwise is that i'd probably need to root it > connect it to pc, use the andorid debugging console to "push" the app into the system folder. Tried to install whatever vendor.apks I could find but since the "host" os was uncertain, it's probably why they could not be installed. Alas, i may be wrong. Can you please help me out ?
if you need more infor google allview or Alldro
Thanks a lot !

Here ya go! just download it to your destop, transfer it to you device via usb, or download it to android device and run it from there!
thanks a huge lot !!! I will try this out. if it cannot install it means I will probably have to root the damn thing
thought as much. it won't install. I'm using ES explorer to install it (my device is not rooted yet, as I mentioned before) and no luck.
EDIT 1: Also tried copy=pasting it into the system/app folder. it says android marketplace blablabla copy failed. Is it possible that I am dealing with a NAND lock ?
could be that system is mounted read only.
Do you have root?
nope, not yet. I;m trying to root it as we speak... so far still going through the steps
EDIT: trying this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858952
so far i got to making the recovery image. for some idiotic reason however, I cannot do adb reboot recovery again ! it tells me error: protocol fault (no status)
my guess is that it doesn't like the recovery folder's name. else i don't get what's wrong ! I am going to rename the folder, and then attempt a second reboot-recovery. see if that works !
EDIT2: did not work. Could it be something else ?
ok i did it ! the problem was I had skipped rooting and forgot to add a few more params after doing the backup... whew ! that was a close call ! ffs !

Hi,
Is there such an app for the phone P2 from Allview?
Thank you in advance,
Poli
You will need to root your device to be able to push the vending apk into the system apps.
1. Root. its essential to do so.
2. Mount system partition r/w > google for adb commands on how to do that and adb in general
3. download the google apps provided above and either unzip and push vending apk to system/apps (not sure about the exact names, you'll have to see for yourself by using Root Explorer) . Restart phone > should work.
I would like to hack my system to where it can run off a 3g network instead of always havening to use wifi .i want to b able to connect to the internet useing three g networking instead of the original operating system I want my phone to run on a htc evo operating system is this possible
hello everyone,
I tried to install skype via direct apk file but wont work, android maket of this old device does not work
considering this device has WIFI but no SIM card, should be an account-based system (like using skype/hotmail accs)
so I may need the apk file link directly, and being also compatible with this old device and other Android 5.0
thanks in advance
help anyone?
Hi guys. Somebody gave me a Vodafone Smart 890N (aka Yulong Coolpad 3601U) and it had some things broken in the system (google services, contacts and messages fs). I tried flashing it with the yulong tool but i can't find the right drivers so the tool doesn't recognise the firmware (it is a .cpb file). My only options now are to unpack the firmware file (i don't know how) and replace the broken files or force the phone to download the already installed firmware.
Is there any way to trick the phone into thinking it does not have the lastest firmware installed? (such as modifying build.prop)
Also, if anyone can help me, i need the following stock apks and odexes for 4.4.4: (contacts, contacts provider, mms, play store services)

Hi,
I am new in the Android world and I want to know if they are any ways to automate deployment of rom.
Let me explain :
I have 5 asus Z380KL, I have configured 1 tablet with all app, settings (android and apps), account... and I want to know, if they are any ways to completly backup this android and deploy to 4 another tablet, WITH ANDROID SYSTEM settings, app settings, account. I've tried TWRP complete backup, but the img is not recognized by other tablet (with chmod 755 like I see in another thread). I've tried Titanium Backup in pro mod but android system settings and some app are not backuped (and Yes, the tablet is rooted).
Actually, I have 5 tablets, but in some days, I could get 60. And I don't want to take many times to deploy each tablet with all configuration.
So, is there a possibility, with fastboot and adb shell and others things, without touching the tablet (only to boot in bootloader) to install/flash/backup each tablet. Only in command line ?
And what is for you the best/fatest way to accomplished that ? I have to create my custom ROM based on cyanogenmod or offical rom ? (If yes, can I add gapps, and others apps with config and android system conf and already account configured ?).
The best way for me is to branch the tablet, boot in bootloader, and launch script on my computer to install completly (with android system settings and app settings) the tablet, and loop for each tablet.
Have a nice day
