No need to install modaco R6 as it is not fully compatible with the latest vega firmware 1.8. Just follow these simple instructions and it will be working without any add-ons at all. CWM people will probably have to do it via the recovery.
Just download the attachment with the vega, go to settings, software tool, software update and point it to where you got the downloaded file. The vega will reboot and you will have a full working market. It will be the old version the first time you launch it but it will update itself. After that just install maps, youtube and everything else google. The only thing I'm having trouble installing is the official twitter app.
Hope that helps you guys at XDADEV

hi guys, i'm having issues trying to install market. i have tried this file and the one from o_g. with no luck. i can dl find and execute the file. when i comes to reboot i get the android out of the box symbol (which i'm assuming is bad ?)and have to power down the vega to get it to boot again, without market ? any ideas ? i have little knowledge of android (phone related only) and am a bit stumped.

You're welcome. There are some apps I have difficulty in finding in the market. I think it's due to the market trying to aquire location. I cannot install the official twitter app either. Trying to find solutions.

No, you don't necessarily need it but it doesn't hurt if you do. It has to be done via recovery if you do though, different process. What firmware have you got?

The android out of the box symbol is fine thats when it is flashing the files. there should be a progress bar that turns orange, after that happens the device should reboot its self. The only requirement is you are running stock v1.08.

I have noticed launcher pro does not show in the market had to install manually. i have tried changing the market files, but that does not work, so it might be as you say down to location, or i think it could be to do with are device name on the market, maybe advent does not want us to have those apps. I cant remember where the device name is. I will have to look further.

It works ok, you need to delete some of the apk's out of files/system/app. things like car home can be deleted and other little things. Like that it will not run out of space when you install it and it will not give you errors. This is just another option, that's all. Some more goodies will come along from modaco and xdadev like the new R7 rom addon that were made specifically for the 1.08 firmware.
thanks man, i just changed the 0 to a 1 at the end and it worked, then market updated the second time i opened it.
been trying to do this for over 2 wks

Ok guys i've managed to successfully install the LiveWallpapers.apk from the NeXus dump and also the MagicSmokeWallpaper.apk on the G1 on android 2.1. problem is that I can't get the LiveWallpaperPicker.apk to install in order to use live wallpapers. reason being is because it isn't being deodexed properly.. I used the deo-all tool and it de-dexes the .apk but i see that it throws an error during the process and i can't find out what it is since the terminal quits to quickly for me to do so. i sign the .apk and install, but throws the error "dexopt". so my theory is its not properly being de-dexed.. once I get this solved i'll also have the new launcher2.apk, gallery3d.apk, and visualization wallpapers.apk able to be installed.
any help??
bump this get this poppin
I liked to see those apps working as well...
Major progress, so thanks to a cpl devs who helped out (miketaylor, djengizz) i've been able to install the livepaperpicker.apk and the prompt to use live wallpaper shows up now.
but it fc's. reason being is because for some odd reason when it gets deodexed the mainclass in the classes.dex gets deleted and so the activity can't be read and it isn't initialized by dalvik. all we would need is to be re-compile the classes.dex back with the mainclass and in theory it should work.. but that's where the problem lays. smali isn't being so nice and throws bunch of errors.
ive heard talk about these wallpapers. what exactly is so special about them?

From what i've seen they allow the wallpapers to be animated, so for example, you can have a wallpaper that has different weather effects, or a pic of the ocean moving etc.
I cant wait until this is working on the Manup 1.0.1 rom.
good luck guys, this would be amazing.

Thanks for your feedback
Hope you can tune the app soon!
Maybe something is wrong with the app that you been trying to deodex. Have you tryed downloading another nexus dump from a different source and deodexing those apps? Just a suggestion in case you didnt think about it just trying to help!
i am trying to install this on my droid with 2.1.
You need to move over some of the libraries from 2.1 or else it will not work.

ok like what libs??.. my main issue right now is when de-odexing the apk, it leaves out the mainclass activity, so it cannot be initialized by dalvik and throws a fc. I've got it installed however and attempts to intialize when prompted

Any Progress on this...ill be a beta tester if you need any
this is one of the coolest features of 2.1 to be honest...the eye candy factor is amazing. Seems like progress is being made though...you think it will be done soon? want it on my mt3g soon =D
guys, I have everything I need to get this working, it's just I still have the 1 problem that is totally hindering this. i'ved asked for help to somebody but they haven't responded back, although it's not something that me and djengizz haven't tried already. at this point, only hope we have is getting an un-odexed dump, OR jf updating the smali tools that are throwing the errors that we get. believe me, if u guys can't cait to have this, imagine how i feel having everything set and ready to go with only 1 thing holding it back, especially since I was basically the first 1 to start up on this mod before anyone else.
Sucks I cant do anything to help...im just sitting down while you do all the work so I can watch my wallpaper move
sounds like your really trying hope you get this out soon...you'll be my hero for sure.
basically, the main problem is in smali... I have all the smali files and try re-assembling but smali just throws loads of erros and doesn't make the classes.dex we need to get this up and running.
Hi all,
First of all thanks to all for the useful info. Been browsing this site (and modaco) for a while now. Finally got my Vega today
Apologies for the n00b question but....
Managed to sort out USB drivers (despite Win 7 x64... ) and updated to 1.09 from the official vega site. Now I'm trying to get the market working - put the OGMarket update (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931337) on my SD card and installed the google framework, market etc... and I can get the market to run, however whenever I select an app I get "force close".
Any suggestions?
Is there a better way of going about this? I have nothing useful on my vega yet so don't mind reflashing - just wanted to try and stick with 1.09 if poss.
I have noticed it seems to be an old version of the market (I have an up to date X10 mini pro with the newest market on it) but I can't figure out how to run the market updater app.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
When I switched to 1.09, to install the market I just used the file linked in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930267 and it worked right. It installs an older version of the market but once running it updates itself.
Brill - will give this a go.
Cheers,
Xio
Just updated my rom add-on. Needs to be flashed with the software tool. All is working great for me
Hiya,
Managed to get market working using method above - thanks!
Some of the Ggaps aren't there (and don't show up on market) such as calendar, maps etc... but this is definitely a step forward.
Now to go look at that rom...
Thanks again to all for the info!
I would suggest you follow the tip to enable all the apps in the market in my thread, google Maps shows fine for me. I can add more gapps to it no problem, just trying to keep the rom size down. Calendar does not show i can add that as a extra download.
Absolutely brill!
Now got google maps (and the superb mini taskbar) - as you say, no calendar on marketplace, so if you have it handy that would be great.
Otherwise - slick work!

I have had this issue, it started last night when i decided to re-flash my vega. (i have been doing lots of testing and wanted a clean system) It appears to effect all roms and builds. I tried stock v1.065, v1.08 and v1.09 also tried maodaco r8 and all resulted in the same. I ended up doing a application restore (from software tool) which resulted in market logging in, but then getting a message "No matching content in Android Market" I fixed this with market enabler. Not sure why this has happened, as it appears to effect all roms. Have to wait and see how many people this effects.
Your vega not booting is strange as you are the first to report the problem with the Gapps. Did you have sufficient battery power to apply the flash? Enter recovery and reflash the stock rom.
If anybody else is having the same issues please report, Thanks.
It is more a boot loop, the android buddy shows and that is it. I reflashed 1.09 and your pack. I will try the stock settings now. Lets see ^^
Ok it doesnt work, i guess your pack hate germans ^^
i although test to set my language and timezone to an american one (read something in an other forum) doesnt work. So now iam clueless...
Send from my Vega
Odd, I got the market working but it only had free apps. Had to set to US in language and keyboards to get the paid apps to show, but now all prices are in dollars. Must be a location thing.
Afraid I am having the same problem too actually...
I have flashed 1.09 again - system restarts ok.
Unfortunately when I add the apps pack I just get the little android symbol on the screen in a boot loop
Any ideas? Was really cool when the apps were workin tho
EDIT: My location is UK btw.. incase that's useful
EDIT 2: What I mean to say is, I add the apps pack and it loads fine, all the apps work, all is well - however, if I then power down the vega it goes into the boot-loop.
Cheers,

There are more and more messages and news that there is a problem with the market login. I guess it is not the user, it is the server from google.

That's a relief - I have just been re-flashing and wondered what I had done wrong when the market didn't log in!
Cheers Gman for all yer work so far. Am trying different combinations of apps in the pack to see if it is one in particular causing the problem - also, while on the topic, any chance of getting google talk in there? I have an apk that works on the vega - but I'm not sure if that's going to cause a bootloop too, so I'm leaving it off for now!

Thx man, if you need any help, testing or something, ping me.
Send from my Vega
Hmm,
I'm probably going about this back to front but...
Have installed the apps pack straight away (without the mini-taskbar etc mod) containing only:
Calendar
CalendarProvider
DeskClock
Gmail
GoogleCalendarSync
GoogleServicesFramework
Maps
NetworkLocation
Street
Updater
Youtube
Seems fine (I.E. I can restart the vega without bootloop) but I cannot "establish a reliable data connection to the server" - it would appear much of the internet is having the same problem at the mo for whatever reason!
Ofcourse this is still missing the all important market etc... and I didn't realise just how much I'd miss the mini taskbar!
Tried making "my own" update - chopping together the apks, updating the updater-script file then signing the zip.... it didn't end well.
*Flashes 1.09 again*...
I think this is a google thing. i have tried every rom/market update combination, but still unable to log into market. Restoring from a application back up from software tool, fixes the login problem but you can only see free apps unless you change the language in language and keyboard to US.

Also, downloads for Dexter's mods have historically been buggy for many users. The file you download (through 1.3) should be around 100MB. The exact size varies between versions. If the above suggestions don't work for you, try downloading the file again.
If you still have issues with the downloaded file, other users have found download success by using a browser download plugin called flashgot. It only works with Firefox and Thunderbird though.
http://flashgot.net/
I had an issue with the download with similar results to yours. My download was only about 63K whem it should of been a little over 100MB.
I had to start down loading the 1.2 update, that would start to download the whole 1.2 file. I'd cancel the download then download 1.3. For some reason after that it downloaded the complete 1.3 update file and I was able do the update.
So, check your downloaded file size and see if that's you issue. Also make sure you rename it Update with a capitol "U".
how long does the download take? i followed the instructions and my screen went to a picture of an android? and a box and stayed that way.

Did you boot into recovery (1. by turning off the unit, then power it on by holding the power button for a second, release, and then hold again until the recovery menu pops up), or did you use the settings menu to run the Update file (2. Open Settings > About device > System updates > Update device)?
If you did option 1, the soft keys on the side of the tablet allow you to navigate from the image you reference (android robot & box):
Search Key = Up
Back Key = Down
Home Key = Menu
Menu Key = Select
When you see the robot, press the Home key to take you to the update menu. Navigate the menu to clear your cache. After the cache wipe is complete, select the option to install Update.zip. Give it about 10min to run through the update, and it should reboot. If it reboots into an Elocity Logo loop, long press the power key until it shuts down. Your next boot should take you into a properly functioning tablet. Depending on the version of the OS you currently have installed, the update may retain your current apps and settings.
I haven't tried option 2 in a while, but it should do everything for you automatically - but it will probably factory reset the tablet and you'll lose any previously installed apps.
thanks. Did not know this when i posted found out byaccident when wipinfg off fingerprints. Wish they sent directions with the A7.

NP. Did exactly the same thing back in December.
if you have not solved your issue I believe I had simular problem. the file when you download is already a .zip file. So when you rename it just rename it "Update"
Another newbie here with a question.
My new A7 is due to be delivered tomorrow.
From what I have gathered so far from this board is that the Dexter Mod allows you to get apps from google marketplace, correct?
I am not sure which version of firmware will come on the A7 but I am going to assume that it will not be the latest one released in February.
My question is should I do the firmware update first, and then download and install the Dexter Mod?
Thanks in advance.

Dexter's mods have all been based on firmware updates from Elocity. He has kindly added market functionality and fixed a few bugs. I don't see any value in updating with Elocity's firmware prior to installing Dexter's latest.
As the other poster said there is no need for the elocity 7 update but if I were youI would keep it handy. I had a problem with the mod and had to reset the device with the old firmware. Also it seems a weird problem with android reading the file as when reading in astro the upddate.zip looked like update.zip.zip. w
Wierd.
So you just write update i dont even capitalize it.
Also want to add as newbie to andrid as well and it makes a huge difference in performance too. Think it is fast now when you put the mod it seemed to increase overall performance for me which I did not expect.
Good luck

That is not an android problem. That is what happens when windows explorer is set to hide known file extensions and people dont think when remaming things.
Please do not insult people because we lack knowledge which is why we are here to figure out what is going on. I had no idea windows explorer was set to hide file extensions. I never set it that way nor was i ever told before now. Now that I know i can do something but I was thinking, maybe i do not know what i am doing but you could offer help without making me feel like an idiot.

So it is not OK for me to point out an obvious mistake (seriously, this one is like calling grass purple). BUT it is perfectly fine for you to assume that it is a "problem with android" and disseminate misinformation like its your job.
Yup, I am obviously in the wrong.
It is obvious to you. I made a mistake and never said I was an expert and pointed that out in my response by saying I was a newbie too and this was what happened to me and my best guess was what I said. I never said I knew it was an andriod glitch but because I had no other idea until someone like you with more knowledge chimmed in.
All I am saying is you could have corrected me as a newbie with a sense of friendship and not superiority. I was sharing my experience to help someone else. That is all I want to do. I am no expert and am learning as I go.
I have seen others in linux forums when i started with that with the tone. Maybe it seems like thecolor of grass to you but is not so obvious to others. If I sounded like I was telling people mis information then I apologize. That was not my intention.
It is up to you how you treat others and if it feels like the right thing then that is your right. Just understand that some of us are not out to show we are smarter than anyone else and are just trying to help even when we make wrong assumptions.
Thanks for correcting me and setting the record straight.

rename teh update - update- DONOT PUT THE ZIP PART.
i had the same problem. i noticed the elocity update did not use the zip in the update name.
Dear fellows,
I got nicely rooted Nook Touch (and have never asked such dummy questions) with plenty of applications working on it - all of them uploaded and tested via try/error approach. Unfortunately, I did not use it for quite some time.
Now, can see:
1) the left-handed hardware buttons stopped to work - the upper one was used as a "Back" button, the one below it as a "Settings"
2) Cannot connect via adb from my laptop
3) Some programs like AdFree started to push a kind of annoying messages like "Unable to get root. I was unable to get root access, without this you cannot install a replacement hosts file", etc.
1), 2) and 3) make me think that somehow my NST got "unrooted". How can it happen and what I can do ? I am thinking of rooting it again, but will I lost all the .apk-s installed, etc..?
Any ideas really appreciated, many thanks in advance
Any help ?
Thanks in advance!
Sounds to me that your NST got updated.
Go into Settings and check your software version.
Hi ros,
I thought of this as well. Unfortunately I can't remember if it was 1.0.1 prior rooting or just 1.0.0. At the moment it is definitely 1.0.1. I saw that B&N has just released 1.1.0 too ..
As far as I remember xe-autonook.bat had the section that blocks OTA updates,
also after rooting I did not got over the official update procedure (update screens, restarts, etc.), so seems to be something else ...
Anyway, since it already happened - if I choose the option to root it again - will I destroy everything - is it rewriting /system/apps, etc.?
Thanks

Hmm, what root method did you use in the first place?
Autonooter ? The one that is using the xe-autonook.bat - replacing the uRamdisk and then doing few other steps, the bat mentioned above is just automating the procedure.
Now I did check .. and voilla - now the firmware is 1.1.0, so basically the OTA update took place and that's why the NST got unrooted. Do you see any possibilities beside rooting from scratch ? I just want to keep the installed applications and settings
Thanks

Use TouchNooter, it'll reroot you and you don't have to wipe /data
Great, thanks Gabrial!
Will try 1.11.20, which seems to be compatible to NST 1.1.
Result:
- su on terminal emulator is behaving as expected
- GMail running (never could get it running before)
- Market running (the same as GMail - never got running it before, used Amazon Appstore due to this reason)
...
- thankful, great and nice work, when I saw the bottom left sign on the initial ("Rooted Forever") window - "GabrialDestruir", I just realized who replied to me, cheerz!
Hi guys,
However I am wondering whether should I find a way to disable the OTA updates or whether to wait and receive the B&N and then reroot (as I did now for 1.1) ?
Thanks again
Is there no way of stoping the autoupdate? I worked a lot on that install ...

i would not doubt it
i dont know the change log
but i have seen two users report the 13.2.2.2 update
it could not be anything more than to mess up the work around that people have been getting away with by updating the build.prop
because when i try to change the build.prop to 14.3.2.2_user_322095220 in all the right places and try to save it the way i did before using root explorer it saves as 0 kb and is blank when i look at it.so i delete it and change the build.prop.bak file that is created when changing the build.prop back to build.prop because i am afraid to reboot with the blank one in fear of a brick

Google "hdx 8.9 download"
Find the Amazon page that lets you manually download the updates
The download link points to 14.3.2.1..
Copy that link into a new browser window and edit it in two places
this is for 8.9 obviously

What Changed?
Wonder what changed... the recovery, kernel(s) and system apps all appear to be the same. There must be some critical bugs that had to be urgently patched with this latest update coming so quick on the tail of the 13.3.2.1 update.
[Edit]Upon closer inspection, looks like there are some noticeable changes in the following apps:
WhisperlinkSdk.apk
WhisperplayActivityView.apk
WhisperplayCDSSettings.apk
WhisperplayCore.apk
WhisperplayQCSource.apk
com.amazon.communication.apk
com.amazon.tcomm.apk

I've updated 13.3.2.2, somehow opened when the machine is updated immediately so!!
I wonder if it would be possible to insert the SU binaries in this new update and then manually install it without breaking the signature
I just did a manual "Check Update" on my HDX 7 and it said no new updates, but only has 13.3.2.1.
I did sniff the traffic from the Kindle during this check and found that it contacted "softwareupdates.amazon.com" - which I now blocked in my router for what its worth.
Captured packets attached just in case they're useful.
Well crap. Blocking the server as above on my home LAN did stop the update from ever happening but I forgot to turn WiFi off at School and what do you know, 13.2.2 snuck right on in in a matter of minutes

Couple questions...
1. Once I stay out of the Stock rom it shouldn't update. Am I right on that?
2. If I have a rom slot with Fire OS loaded to it and in use. Can I turn on wifi and it not update?
3. I have the AOSP rom in as lot. Can I turn on wifi in this without fear of update?

install safestrap on both stock and rom slot one
so it will not be able to fully update it will bootloop back to safestrap according to GSLEON3
Update the hosts file on the kindle to point to localhost(127.0.0.1) or something. That might, or might not offer some help on WiFi you don't control. You'll need to still have root to do this of course.
