Doesn't work!
people tried doing something like this with the htc aria, but there is a problem with using this, the android_id in the db is what bases your market downloads etc. There are alot more settings in this db than just the non market apps.
O really? It worked for me a second ago i think!
Wait, nevermind. Sorry guys!

This is a bad idea. First of all, this will change all of your phone settings to whatever is in that file. It won't just change the non-marketplace apps setting. Second, like shad0wf0x said, this could cause strange problems in the future because you'll be using someone else's unique android id.
alrite, thank you for the info.. someone in the other thread said someone should pull the settings.db file and post it... and thats what i did

I've seen that people have had success getting Hulu to work on their webtop/lapdock, but does anyone know of a way to get it to work on the phone itself?
I know with the Droid X and some other phones, you can trick hulu by editing your flash library to show that it's a Windows device instead of Android. Is this possible on the Atrix?
I'm using playon to watch hulu videos. basically just streams from desktop but works well. Sadly, netflix is not supported.
I don't think that's free though, is it?
I'm sure the flash player can be made to work on the Atrix, just as it has for other devices. If I have some spare cycles I'll try and get a modded library posted.
EDIT: It works fine. Attached is the modded library that should be unzipped and copied to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib. Using a browser that supports user agent settings (e.g. Dolphin HD), set it to Desktop, enable Plugins (Always seems to work better than On Demand) and then browse to Hulu. Profit.
Worked for me.
Just wanted to say thanks.

How did you do it? I used astro file manager and I can't find the data/data/com/adobe/flashplayer/lib
I've been considering the Atrix. I still have a captivate lying around, does anyone know if this will work with the captivate? Or the Inspire?

It might work if the versions are the same (10.1.120.10).

yokozuna82 is right..
I have my atrix rooted and I used rootexplorer to backup the original file - then I replaced with the one agentdr8 posted.

Works now! I had wrong permissions on the file..
for me, it bypasses the "platform not supported" error and starts to play, but I only get audio and no video

I didn't pay anything for it. Downloaded the free app from the market, then downloaded the desktop/pc install for it.
Just checked, guess it was free for 14 days. Hmmm. Might not work for me then after next week.
So, in that case, er, carry on, nothing to see here.

Odd. What browser are you using? What is your user agent setting? What is your plugin setting? Are you using the stock Flash Player, not the one from the Market?
Dolphin HD, Desktop, Always on
come to think of it, I think I did download the one from the market. Do I need to revert to the stock one? If so, how do I go about doing that?
Remove the market version and if you have root access to your phone, try copying the flashplayer.apk from /preinstall to /system/app and reboot.
hm, I don't see any apks there. In /preinstall/app, there's a com.adobe.flashplayer file, but it's not an .apk. I tried renaming it as an apk and putting it in the system/app directory, but that didn't work
nevermind, i installed the tegra2 version of the flash player someone leaked on the boards, and that seemed to fix the issue.
thanks!

The version for the Tegra 2 is not compatible with the Captivate (10.1.106.16) its hardware specific from what I have read. You could prob mod the lib for the above specific version through.
I wanted to download the Kindle app from the market, but I got the message "This app is incompatible with your AT&T Motorola MB860". I went to Amazon app store downloaded the same version and it worked fine. I sent an email to Android market support and was very unhappy with part of their message
I see that you have a non-standard value for screen density value of 260.
You will find that this will cause you to be unable to download many apps.

Did I authorize them to look at data on my phone without realizing it? What else can they look at? The market on the web has the same message that the app is incompatible with my phone.
here's the entire response:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Have you installed an Android operating system on your device that has not
been authorized by your device's manufacturer? I can troubleshoot your
issue to the best of my abilities, but please be aware that unauthorized
operating systems (custom roms) may have limited functionality due to the
compatibility of the device. For best results, I recommend using the
authorized Android operating system provided by your manufacturer that can
be obtained from their website or your carrier.
The previous version of the Market app, did not check the screen density
for compatibility. Version 3.0.27+ does.
I see that you have a non-standard value for screen density value of 260.
You will find that this will cause you to be unable to download many apps.
I recommend that you reset your screen density parameter to one of the
standard values. The standard values for screen density are 160, 240, and
120.
If I can assist you further, please let me know.
Regards,
Dean
The Android Market Team

Did you consider that your market app might tell what screen density your phone has for compatibility on the market?
No point getting completely paranoid over it

I forgot to mention that the market on the web has the same message that the app is incompatible with my phone.
because your market app is reporting to google what your screen density is, causing the market to believe you're incompatible with all these apps. it's part of the market app's function.

so I'm supposed to actually think before I freak out? I don't know if that's possible - the mouth always works before the brain and I guess my hands typing works before the brain too.
One reason more to stick with the old market. v2.3.6 is way to go. It still allows to fake network provider, which allows me to have apps that are unavailable in my country
Maybe u can try 'market enabler' and create a fake region as T-Mobile .. hope this can help u

Yes, yes you did. And anything they want.
Why not just use an app to change the screen density? That would be a very easy fix! There is a list of root apps in my sig and one changes density. Prob solved.
The symptom is, each time I switch on my tablet, I receive a notification in lower right corner promoting something like lucky draw, game, etc. If I click on the notification, it automatically starts downloading apk. The apk is always named like yyyymmddxxxxxxxxxxx.apk. I never run those apks, I guess they are not friendly. How can I check which app I installed is doing this?

First check what you have installed recently. Could be one of those apps give spam notifications. I saw something similar on my bro-in-law phone and that was because he installed some kind of "enhancement" program to make his phone run more efficient (it didn't help bytheway).
Also, since you didn't say what OS you're running, 4.0+ has the option to disable notifications when you go to settings>applications>app name. If you find its an app you need, then that might help.
If you thinks its beyond this, then install lookout or norton from the market.
It's not malware, they're called push notification ads. Just download "Ad Blocker" (root required) from the market and it will tell you which app(s) is doing this. You can also choose to delete it from within the app.
Pretty handy.

Try installing "Air Push Detector" from the market.
my tablet is using 4.0.4 but i cannot find the setting you mentioned. in settings-application-application name, there is no notification setting.
i tried but there is no app found. i still get notification ad.

I don't have it now, I will load it when I get it next time.
However I have the list of apps I installed because I sent it to the author of push detector. How can I send it to you? I just don't want to post it here.
I have another finding, which seems odd to me: I set the home page of chrome to be blank, and I double checked that, but each time I open the browser it always opens a search page with a lot of informations (looks like a portal but I don't like it). How can I know which app replaces my home page with such rubish?
Is it possible the 3G provider does this kind of things? (notification ads and home replacement)?

No, your network provider would have nothing to do with push notification ads or homepage replacement. And as for setting your homepage in Google chrome, are you talking about the desktop version? Because I don't believe you can make that selection on the mobile version, unless I'm missing something?
BTW, you can send that list to me in a PM if you'd like.

In Chrome settings you can set your home page. But it seems it's the 3G provider that replaces the home page for me.

This is pretty cool. You can mirror your Note on your PC and control it using your PC's keyboard and mouse. It's a great way of editing and reviewing S Notes on your PC while they are still in native form on the Note. It connects either over USB (with debugging turned on) or over Wi-Fi.
Here's the desktop app...
http://www.mobizen.com/en/?page_id=236
Here's the Play store app for the Note...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5yc3VwcG9ydC5tdmFnZW50Il0.
I can confirm this works well with the Note 10.1, thanks for the heads-up. :good:
Edit: You have to download the APK from their website as the market version reports it is incompatible with the Note. The downloaded version has the correct skin for the note.
Great app but it`s not showing the proper skin for me (downloaded and installed the apk from their site version 1.0.1.26).
Anyone wanna post the apk file, play store says it's incompatible with ALL my toys and can't find the apk file on the mobizen site.....
Doesn't help I just finished work and have to start again in 7 1/2 hours....

The desktop app reads the device's model number when it connects. I have a N8000 and it worked fine. It also worked for my N7100. I don't know about the N8010/13 or non-international versions of Samsung's devices. The company that built the app is in Germany and probably doesn't know the N8013 even exists (as well as Samsung phones with carrier specific model numbers).
Well it`s woking fine with my note2 (n7100) too and showing with the proper skin. I have the n8000 but for some reason it`s not showing the proper skin. Anyway as long as it`s working ..... Thx for the great recommendation!

This is a great tool, thank you very much for sharing! I have it installed and it is working very well.
This is exactly what I was looking for, something that allows me to easily connect to my Note and utilize S notes (or whatever) with my computer keyboard.
I have plenty of work documentation that I can now easily copy and paste into S notes, and this saves me a lot of time retyping everything. :good:

Reading the user reviews in Google Play, a lot state that they took away WIFI. Can someone confirm that? I'd really love this if it could be used over WIFI.
Maybe downloading the apk from the link provided early instead of downloading it from Google Play will still have WIFI available??
Can you tell me how you copy paste into the tab using this tool.. I want to copy text from PC and paste into tab using mobizen screen.

After you install it on the device and start it, it asks you if you want to download the wireless module (APK) to use it over Wi-Fi. Still works for me. Once it's set up, all you need to do is start the desktop app and it automatically finds and starts the app on the device if its connected to Wi-Fi.
