Hello,
I don't understand the tutorial from Peter1212 with Bluestack.
- How do i make the bootstat.rc file?
- How do i place the bootstat.rc file and how to enter in that destination?
- How do i go to /sdcard/init.d/bin/ ?
Explain also for new users not only for people who already know also a video tutorial will help.

Bluestacks X is out. Essentially, it's a Bluestacks instance running in the cloud. Is it possible to root it?
Have tried using Kingroot and Kingoroot and neither work. BSTweaker wouldn't work here, because this is running a cloud instance of Bluestacks, not locally.
There isn't an app launcher and games launch in fullscreen. However, some apps (e.g. Guild of Heroes: Fantasy RPG) require an update from Google Play. By having access to Google Play, you can install a launcher and then go from there.
I've tried installing Magisk, but it doesn't provide an option to directly patch the ROM itself. It only supports patching a boot.img file, which I don't have any idea how to get. Looks like it's using Nougat x64.

I've been using the new stock tnt 5699 for 3 days now, it seems to be far more stable and fast than previous versions, flash plays well on almost all the web pages I've tested, it only needs market and google applications to turn it into a really useful rom. So these are the modifications to "The Viewsonic G Tablet Super Thread (w/Market, Gmail, and Maps!)" to have it up and runnig:
1. Download and install z4root
2. Run z4root and choose "permanently root" to root your gtablet
3. Download and install rootexplorer
3. Run root explorer and Mount "/system" as R/w
4. Download and unzip gtablet ( http://forum.xda-developers.com attachment.php?attachmentid=432583&d=1288749538) into your sdcard
5. Copy the contents of G Tablet\permissions to System\etc\permissions
6. Copy the contents of G Tablet\lib to System\lib
7. Copy the contents o G Tablet\APP into your system\app folder
8. Install them in this order:
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
OneTimeInitializer.apk
Talk.apk
Vending.apk
Gmail.apk
Maps.apk
9. Make sure you remount "/system" as R/O when you're done!
10. Restart your G, Connect to Wifi
11. Open rootexplorer and Mount "/system" as R/W
12. In rootexplorer long press in "/system/build.prop" and choose "open in text editor"
13. Where it says "ro.product.device=harmony" change it to: "ro.product.device=olympus"
14. Press menu button and select save and exit.
15. Perform the following steps:
Go into Settings.
Go into Applications.
Select Manage Aplications (all).
Select Market.
Select Clear Cache.
Select Force Stop.
Hit back button once.
Select Services Framework.
Select Clear Data.
Select Force Stop.
Back to home screen.
16. Open market (you should get an error message)
17. Reboot gtab.
18. Let it sort things out on its own. Go into Market.
19. Enjoy Market.
The only thing not working is the google calendar
Hope this is useful
Thanks this is extremely helpful. What are the three copied folders Permission/Lib/App needed for?
Also, are you getting any force closes with any of the apps after installing the market?
Android Market without rooting?
Is it possible to install the Android Market without rooting? Or un-root after installing the Market?
The reason I ask is movie rentals from the Android Market. Movies won't play on rooted devices. Just wishing there were some way of getting movies rentals to work.

I haven't tried it on the Gtab, but I'd look at Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper (https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper). It allows you to unroot/root if you're already rooted. It was developed for the Kindle Fire to re-root after OTA updates, but it also works to backup and unroot for apps that don't like root. I've used it on a couple of non-Kindle devices and it works great.
I was successfully able to run this:
- with temporary root
- using free es file explorer
The changes I did were:
2) instead of Permanent Root, I chose Temporary root. I needed to enable USB debugging first, but temporary root worked.
3) Instead of root explorer I used ES file Explorer. The Viewsonic-installed 1.x version did not work. I downloaded a newer version 1.6.1 from estrongs.com
Also, it took a few tries for market to show up under "system applications" in tap&tap's settings screen. I didn't have an "applications (all)", it may have been a root explorer thing.
I'm waiting for Market to self update like help says it will. This old version did FC on me once.
You don't even need root to install the Market on stock!

Have u tried this on an unrooted gtab? If so are the steps the same without the need to rw
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Wait a sec, does system even need rw? Without root it cant be changed to rw.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I have a question about step 3. How do you download root explorer when you don't yet have access to the Market?
[Edit] Never mind. I found an alternative method of getting gapps on to my Gtablet. It is an update file that automated the gapps install. Do a web search for "Gtablet Back to Stock w/ a few modifications" and you will find it. It is a February 22, 2012 entry of a blog entitled "Salvatore's Place"
I did the above and every thing works perfect except that I have the old market and its not updating. any help on that?

I wrote a program called OogleVox, which installs the Play Store on rooted devices. It is a little more comprehensive than these instructions and other than modifying the build.prop it sets everything up. Does anyone want to try it out? http://goo.im/devs/danifunker/OogleVox
Please post your results.

GenyToolz
Tools to Help with Installation of the Google Playstore, Arm library, and Pre Installed app removal on the Genymotion Android Emulator. Essentially turning the GAPPS + ARM flash into a one button process while removing the bloatware preinstalled on the Genymotion tablet at the same time. Simply run the bat file and it will send the rom to your device through adb and automatically reboot for you.
These roms replace CW File Manager with JRummy Root browser, they also remove the developer settings app because you can always open it manually in settings without using up extra disk space. This is also helpful for those who experience problems dragging and dropping to Genymotion.
A video to demonstrate how to push apps and files, retrieve the contents of your virtual device's download folder to your pc, and instantly flash playstore+arm using the tool's batch file with adb interface.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l7gh7PbcwE
To see play store install skip to 1:42 for lollipop, 2:22 for kitkat, and 3:01 for jellybean
Remember to manually reset your Lollipop devices after running the installation script, all others will run fine without needing second reboot.
You will have a few download servers to choose from depending on which is fastest for you. Google Drive or Mega. Take note to the link you click on!
GenyToolz Download (174 MB zipped):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B66Kx0aapG1vcVZ4UEMtcmRlaUU/view?usp=sharing (GOOGLE DRIVE)
https://mega.co.nz/#!vkRhQTLb!DNkStYFqi0NU0aFvTaA1X4Pnf1S4kiKDo7Lq91tZSsE (MEGA)
REQUIRES THIS VERSION OF ADB as well, all you need to do is install it. (Use the google drive link for fastest download) ADB tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
BLUESTACKS USERS: Make sure bluestacks isnt running in the background or it will cause the program to fail. Check your hidden icon tray!
TO DO LIST: Will be adding 2.3.7 Gingerbread in the future and working on other goodies specifically the network stack / mem buffer to help with certain game's playback.
Find what problem is with youtube playback
Correct the arm bridge for 4.4, 5+
All roms included are custom built to make Genymotion devices run more smoothly and be smaller file size and will be updated as more tests are done. Subscribe to receive current versions as they are released!
Note that you can right click and edit all the batch files to see what is included, it is adb shell code to remove some preinstalled apps, adb pushing of system files containing gapps, jrummy, and arm library. Feel free to add your favorite apps to the System/Apps folder to have them installed with the flash! Or you can add them later with the app pusher in GenyToolz.
SOURCES:
The arm translation library is the same version as located in this thread:

The rest of the system files were downloaded from source goo.im and stripped of unnecessary components / apps.
Any questions or suggestions will be considered and are appreciated! Happy Day!

...we can root this device?
whether previously able to install playstore ?
the quick way, try factory data reset (backup you data because it will erase data on phone). and try download playstore again.
Before trying to root back up your data, then try following this guide to root your tablet. Then once rooted you need to install SuperSu.apk (only trustworthy place besides Google play I could find the apk only and not a zip )here to be abke to grant apps root access. Then use a file explorer that can have root acces (I suggest ES File Explorer) to move the Google play .apk and Google play services .apk files (you should be able to download them from apkmirror or similar sight) into /system/priv-app/ using a file explorer with root acces and reboot and Google Play should work. If you have any problems rooting please post your problems in the thread I linked or search the forums.

First I noticed that your build version (YTD802a153015) is different than the one you need for this guide to work (Build YTP802A128630). To fix this go under Settings->About Device->Check for Updates (may be called something slightly different) and check for an update and if there is one install it and you should be on the correct build (YTP802A128630).
And the link seems to be broken, so I did some searching and I was able to find it directly from dell here.
thank you for your reply !!!
i tried to search some updates but is not available
how can do? hom many risk there are to root the device with different build?
thanks in advance
I think this is basically general(not device specific) question so I am posting my question here.
I have Galaxy Note 10 Plus which got OS upgrade recently. I havn't upgraded my phone so currently my phone is at Android Q(10).
I don't have much time to do OS upgrade. More specific, I don't have time to do full wipe, manually download and flash firmware with Odin, install huge amounts of apps, configure those apps etc. Well, you might think: why don't use just OTA upgrade? That's because I don't trust OTA thing. It broke my previous phone few years ago. After that, I always flash firmware with Odin after doing full wipe.
The main problem is, I can't use 'Backup Apps' because it is OS upgrade and I don't think simply moving app data from Q(10) to R(11) is good idea. I have to configure everything one by one by my hand. That will consume a lot of time. Like I said, I don't have much time for doing this. I have to save some time.
If then, I might be able to save some time when installing huge amounts of apps from Google Play Store. I guess it is about ~80 apps. If I can automate those app installation, I might be able to save some time and use that time to configuring apps.
So here is my question: How can I automate app installation in Google Play Store? I've searched Google but only got disappointing result. 'Download those APKs and install them via ADB!', 'Emulate touch input in Google Play Store!' etc. are not what I want to do. I think there would be much elegant way to do bulk install of Google Play Store apps.
TL;DR
I want to know if there is simple way to install multiple(~80) apps in Google Play Store without doing these:
- Downloading those APKs and install them via ADB
- Emulate touch input with certain app
My guess is there is no other way than to download the apps in question and afterwards install them via ADB, what all can be done by means of a common Windows Powershell file.

Wait, can I download and install apps via ADB with single powershell script? If then, I can accept it if those app which were installed by ADB can be updated with Google Play Store...
If yes, can you give me hint about that script?
Don't have such a script at my fingertips ... And I have not the time to write it ... Think it shouldn't be too difficult for you to write it ...
Hello,
I am playing around with an .apk, an existing program where I have no control over. Planning to try my hand at reverse engineering for fun.
However, I run into the following problem:
When I download the app from the google play store, it works. No issues.
When I download the app from the google play store, then copy the .apk file from the emulator to my pc, and then reïnstall it on the emulator, it does not work and crashes. This is without any edits.
Same goes with an apk downloaded via Raccoon, same app, using the same google account. Download directly on the emulator via play store, it works. Download with raccoon then install the emulator, it doesnt work.
One thing I noticed is that when I install the app from the play store, it is 170MB (using app info).
When I install it from raccoon, or after extracting the apk from the emulator, its only 70MB.
Something else I noticed: When downloading from raccoon, it also downloads 2 config apk's, however, I cannot install those on the emulator...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It may be because the apps installed from the Play Store are genuine and reliable.
@PresFox
my guess is you try to install some so-called Split-APK ( read: apps that are distributed as app bundles ). Because Android provides no built-in way to install them from sources other than Google Play Store you have to install them via Google Play Store.
Thanks to @PresFox for the explanation of what's occurring here.
I often install base.apk apps from backups of /data/app done in a recovery shell and find they crash.
Most of the time, this can be rectified by restoring the missing files
from /data/app/com.SOME.APP/oat & lib folders (from recovery adb shell).
Although it works for me, can't say if its 100% reliable.
