I see that there are many posts regarding BBM but this one will vary from the others.
I have an HTC Amaze 4G Asian version which has not received the official ICS update. I am running on Gingerbread 2.3.4. As BBM is only available for ICS+ devices, I therefore cannot download it from the Play Store. I know I can root it etc. but I do not want to get into that stuff ( almost bricked my phone in doing so ).
Is there anyway that I can download ICS compatible apps to Gingerbread? Or can anyone somehow convert the ICS BBM app to be somehow compatible with Gingerbread. If not, is it possible to download it with only the root? I don't want to perform S OFF.
BBM is a must have app ( at least for me ) and I really do want it. Please help me and tell me if I could somehow get it while on Gingerbread.
Thanks,
Shahmeer

The app relies on stuff found in 4.X. Simply pushing the app to your data folder won't cut it. Do yourself a favor and upgrade to a recent custom rom. You don't know what you're missing on Gingerbread.

Not all phone can be upgraded to 4.+ even with custom roms and those that do have custom roms usually have so much bugs or non working essential features thats its not ready for daily use. Some of us have no choice but to say with 2.3 if we want a working phone

I used Universal Root to root my tablet, not sure if that makes a difference or not. But I have notice on some websites it works and others it doesn't. I was able to actually load one of the web games from Facebook last night. I didn't release anything, I just installed and it worked! I first tried it on youtube website and it worked.
ok,i will check what's wrong on my mechine. the news you give is very important for us.thank you.

Wooaa an Offcial Adobe Flash player for 2.1??? Incredible! Well, now I'm on MyTouch Slide with 3rdSense Rom with 2.2 , and installed this app, but as the previous apks I've tried with, it only installs but doesn't do anything but take space, although... the browser won't show any page ;P
I wonder if I was on 2.1 stock rom, if I could have worked...
If this one for 2.1 is an official, I hope they make an official for 2.2 too

Hey everyone,
I recently flashed stock build 4.0.4 IMM76D via fastboot.. I had been having troubles with my NFC after messing around with Google wallet (cwm zip install method) on 4.0.3...
Now I noticed that the Google tags app doesn't show up in my apps list (although it is in system/app...when I click on it in astro, it asked me to install, I say yes, it fails...).
Is this normal? I'm trying to get back to a perfectly working, stable, up to date system before I mess things up further
Is anyone running 4.0.4 able to run the tags app?

I think I used to have the Tags app, and I remember having my contact on the tag to share. However, I had a bit of a problem recently, had to take my phone to the shop to have it repaired and I got it back with 2.3.6. It auto-updated to 4.0.4, but ever since then the Tags app has been missing, so they I think they made some sort of change to the OTA update between the first rollout and last Thursday (when my phone re-updated itself).
And anyway, if it was deprecated, why keep it in the ROM?
Almost certain tags was never a app in the app drawer.
Let's try change the permission of tag.apk to the same as what other .apk apps'
Hi guys just a quick question. I read somewhere that the new att update had fixed the problem with the car dock app. Which was not allowing 3rd party music players like Pandora and slacker. Anyone confirm this ? And if so where can I find the app itself as I am on cleanrom. Thanks

there are 6 different files including odexes put them in system/app and change permissions. NO idea if these will work or if they require the 2.2x base
It just lets you put shortcuts. Go in the music app and add the shortcuts there, and they will appear in the car dock.

Did you copy them to system app and change the permissions? Also if you are running a deodex rom this won't work.
I think you dont get this in Cleanrom 4.5 lite edition (which is what I am running)
@gunny
you talked about putting it in system/app and changing permissions. Can you post a small howto please..
Use a root enabled file manager like root explorer put the files in /system /app. Then change the permissions on each apk to rw-r-r. and reboot. assuming that I pulled the right files lol.
Thanks,
Works brilliantly. Only the Automotive apk and odex files were needed !!
PS : I am learning new things everyday !! Thanks to XDA !!
Wow that even rhymes !!
Glad to help.
I would LOVE to have this on my Rezound. Can I just move the proper files and permissions to my phone?
I'm on ViperRez 1.0.3 (I think it's based off of a HTC One ROM), it's Android 4.0.3 and Sense 4.0. Would it be compatible?

Yep. Here's the apk I use, no resetting permissions or anything. It does not create a shortcut in the appdrawer however. But the app auto launches when docked.
Crap, can't upload it from phone. Will put it up shortly.
Does anyone have a deodexed version of the updated car app? And is the update JB only or does it work on ICS as well?
The CyanogenMod team has been making good progress towards the latest, stable version of its ROM - CyanogenMod 10 - but there's still time for more features to be added before its eventual release.
One of those features is a root-enabled file manager, which was announced on the Cyanogen Google+ page a few hours ago. Judging from the screenshots, it looks to blend in seamlessly with other CyanogenMod features and the rest of the Android OS, with a really nice looking interface. (Screenshots Below)
When you're browsing through your files, you will be able to choose between three access modes: Safe mode, Prompt User mode and Root Access mode. As you'd expect, it will allow you to view files on your internal storage device as well
you can get the apk here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?do5c710wiwcxwps
Simply copy to system/app and set permissions to rw-r--r--
Enjoy and dont forget to hit THANKS!!
This looks amazing. I've been wondering when they would add in their own file manager.

I like the idea of this. I am not on CM10 yet, can't upgrade till December :'( but I have a few questions for those who use this. Compared to Root Explorer (i am a long time user) how does this stack up? Root Explorer with SQL Lite editor let's me do anything and view any partition I want, for good or bad. Does this meet those lofty standards? Or is it a valiant #2?

I was able to select an item, then use the double menu button in the bottom left and choose move selection. Not sure about copy, but it has the move feature.
It works on 4.1.1, although it seems to go extremely slow. It takes up to 30 seconds to load a simple folder like data/. That same folder took root browser or root explorer about 1 second to do.

Hey, here is my problem:
I have a client who owns a restaurant, who wishes to have tablets in his restaurant so his customers can read it as a menu and order using the tablet.
However there is a really big problem, because I need to hide the system bar (Not to be confused) with the status bar, and I would need to do it on the most recent android, which currently happens to be Jelly bean.
I know that ordinarily one would need a rooted device to do this, however the real question is:
If I build android from source, and make an application which removes the system bar and install it as a system application, do I really need root?
I don't think I do because it would be a system app, but I'm not sure...
How to do plan on installing it as a system app, or building Android from source, without root?

I have compiled it from source and installed an app to test it out, however fastboot can't detect any devices...
Could it be that fastboot only detects rooted devices?
