AOSP Browser in a Sense Build?

Hey all, I'm currently on DamageControl 2.06 (thanks damage!) and I've been pushing in AOSP apks from Darchdroid/Darchvanilla (thanks Darch!) via root explorer. AOSP Mms, phone, contacts, email, music etc all work, but I cannot get the AOSP browser replace the HTC browser. Are there dependencies that the AOSP browser needs that DC doesn't have? ...Darchvanilla is Sense-based, so maybe I'm missing something. (Also, I dont have commandline access, so will it be possible to get the browser running just through root explorer?)

Works perfectly, thanks man! And thanks for the awesome roms!

Best way to replace sense apps with AOSP apps.
Find the AOSP apps from a CM6 build by unzipping and pulling the .apk file like browser.apk. Install "File Expert" (Free and amazing file browser with full root access and alteration capablilities application)
Copy the .apk you wish to have on to your phones SD Card
Run File Expert,
hit menu/more/File Explorer settings. Then check "Root Explorer" on the bottom.
hit menu/more/mount/Mount As Read Write
Browse to /System/Apps Find the App you wish to replace with the AOSP version.
Hold Down on the App and when the options come up choose file operations and rename to something like application name.apk.bak
Browse to your SD Card find your app. hold down to choose file operation then choose copy.
Go back to /System/Apps then hit Menu button and choose paste.
Locate the app you just pasted and hold down on it and in file operations choose "permissions" Check Everything and exit out of File Expert
Note: You may need to redo the shortcuts for the app on your desktop and or launcher.
Note: Must have a rooted phone.
Note: 2.3.3 apps may or may not work on 2.2 Android Roms and vise versa.
Note: if this causes errors or failures delete the new apk and rename the old apk to its orginal name.
Good luck!!

I have hulu in my sky raider 2.5.2 rom but it wont work. Do i have to do something special? The app opens but when i click a video i just the the lego saying i dont have flash or i though thats what it means. How do i fix this?

Read the OP.
You have to go into your sd card and look for the skyraider folder. Enclosed is the install flash file you need.
Sent from my HTC Incredible «•»Rooted/S-off/Skyraider 2.5.2 Vanilla«•» http://www.unrevoked.com/forever

What is a OP lol? I have searched the fourms for another HULU app thread but cant find any. Since it sounds like there is a thread out there and i cant seem to find it does anyone have a link? I found the file inside the skyraider folder but I cant open it i cant flash it, what am I suppose to do with it? And if this is something that needs pushed with someone please for the love of god direct me to a thread that will explain and teach me how to do that. I feel silly everytime I have to ask how to do it, I use a mac and everything i find talks about a PC. I have just had to copy exact line commands when i end up wanting to push items.

You need to install the modified adobe flash apk to watch hulu in the app.

If you want to remove the stock flash, flash this from recovery

Then install the hacked flash .apk
Thanks to scuccia for providing the .zip a while back.

Thank you for the advice BUT I still dont understand installing a .apk. I need to be directed to a thread that will explain this for a Mac user I have SDK i just dont understand the command lines. Help please?

Huh? You don't need to use your mac...
Run the zip I gave you, that gets rid of the original flash. Reboot. Then just run the hacked flash via astro or whatever file manager you use.

O kick ass thanks man!

that did not work for me at first....then I followed the below instruction and everything worked
Here is a temporary resolution for the Hulu problem.
1. Open your stock browser and let your home page load.
2. Erase everything in the address bar and type "about:debug" and press return (note: nothing will appear to have happened; that's good.)
3. Press Menu and select Settings.
4. Scroll all the way to near the bottom and select UAString and change it to Desktop.
5. Press Back to exit Settings.
6. Clear the address bar and type this address into it: "http://www.hulu.com/widget/player/videos" and press Enter
7. You may have to adjust the zoom to get it larger.
8. This is just like the Hulu app, but you can change your orientation to landscape by tilting your phone. Then pinch and zoom to get the video to fill the screen, but do not tap and hold the video to make it full screen.

Anyone have Polaris Office working?

I have the tablet version .apk installed that was posted in the collection of Transformer apps, I think in the Xoom forum. Anyways, it opens fine before it force closes, but when I try to open my resume it crashes. I tried installing it outright and also putting in system/app. Both ways give the same results, it opens then crashes when opening a file. I cleared the data, reset the device, nothing.

Did you check the apk details to see if there's some sort of license/drm check?
Many apps and games are now coming with a license check, just like computer software to make certain people aren't pirating them. Something could be checking for a serial number.

I don't know if that's a paid version too. If so, I'm pretty sure discussing pirated apps is against ToS. If it's a freely available thing then, no worries. I'm waiting, maybe forever for a LibreOffice port to Android. Probably be a long while, dunno how well Dalvik and something that big would play together.

That's true, it may be a paid app. If so I'm not trying to do anything that's frowned upon here. I do know that the app isn't available in the market yet. I think I'm gonna put this off for a while and see what happens with the official release because it's obviously not working right now.

From what little I can learn Polaris Office comes preiinstalled on the Transformer tablet only. I found advice that I needed to move two lib files over to system/lib to make it work. Well I only found one lib file, copied to system/lib and still crashes. I can get it display some stuff but it won't let me start a new doc or read an exist in doc. There are some nice YouTube videos showing how it works, and it looks real nice. I hope some can figure it out.

Look at this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1114100
The two files are libpolarisoffice_Clipboard.so and libpolarisoffice.so. It works fine for me without any FCs.

Yep, It Works For Me Too..
but you have to push the two lib files to system/lib using ADB (or Root Explorer)

Thanks for the names of the two file...it works! I am amazed at how this info is found and shared

Perfect, thank you. I knew there had to be a way.

However (you just knew there was going to be a however!), Polaris Office loads OK, but many of the functions don't work. For example I am able to type in text for a new document but very few of the tools at the top work and I can't highlight any portions of the text. There must still be something missing to make it work correctly. When I do a check for updates within the program it says I am up to date. Any one else seeing these problems?

Seems to be OK for me, I've had it running for nearly 2 weeks now. What functions specifically aren't working for you? I'll try them on mine...

I found a couple of YouTube videos by andyxover that I was able to try out. I could do all of his examples.
The problems/limitations that jumped out at me were
(1) you can not move pictures around in a document (MS Word limits you also)
(2) in spreadsheets you have to type in the blind when you are making enties into boxes
I need to ply around more to get a better feel for this UI.

1. Yes you can. Single tap on the image and it will select.. Then you can move it where you want within reason.
2. There is no "in cell" editing. Editing is in the text box at the top of the screen.

Hello, I was readig your posts looking for help and maybe you can help me, as I can see you solved the problem.
I have an Acer Iconia A500 w/Honeycomb and tryed to install Polaris Office.
I donwloaded the P.O. files and read the txt file: (Using root explorer or adb, push the two lib files to system/lib.).
Downloaded and install rootexplorer, copy to pen drive "lib files", opened rootexplorer, copied lib files then went to System File, opened lib file, did hit paste and a warning message says this file is reading only.
I began to investigate and found that needed to root the device, I did it and tested with root checker, it said it was rooted succesfully, and then repited the hole process, again, read only file.
I was reading posts and found that what I think is the problem, "Fix permissions", so it let me paste the 2 lib files. But still havent found the answer to this. Is there a step I missed? or I'm just doing it all wrong?
I thought if I could find the way to solve the "fix permissions" problem and could paste the 2 lib files in System/lib folder it would be the solution, but can´t paste the 2 files. What should I do?
Thanks in advance for reading and helping me.

It's kind of funny.
You've missed an option in Rootexplorer. It has a button on the top corner that says "Mount R/W" press it and copy the files. You have an old version of rootexplorer if it doesn't have that option.

Ok, here goes:
OPEN Rootexplorer,
top right is the Remount as R/W button, click on it and it changes to Remount R/O
found MNT folder and click, foun usb_storage folder and click,
found the folder I made with 2 lib files and click,
Multiselect and mark: libpolarisoffice.so and libpolarisoffice_Clipboard.so files and Copy
Back to System folder and then to lib folder, click PASTE and " You cannot paste here because the file system is read-only.
What happen??? What am I doing wrong?

Opened the system file folder, found the lib file folder, opened and tried to paste:
the same answer "You cannot paste here because the system file is read-only"
But I noticed something, when I click R/W it changes to R/O, when I open system folder to Paste the Remount automaticaly changes to R/W again after it was R/O, I don´t know if it something important to this case, afted denied access I cilk the remount button again, just to see if it changes to R/O, but it doesn´t.

I usually just copy the files and then press the r/w button and paste. I don't leave the folders. You shouldn't have problems if you're rooted.

[FIX] MLB at Bat Live Game Streaming on CM7,OMFGB, OMGB Thunderbolt

This fix is for the MLB at Bat app and will not break Netflix. MLB.TV users can enter thier account info on MLB at Bat for access to all live streaming games on their phone via Flash.
The problem is with CM7, OMFGB, OMGB that when you load up MLB at Bat and enter your MLB.TV account information, you do not get the option for the live games. This has only been tested on CM7 and will probably work on OMFGB/OMGB. This is not a problem for Sense based roms. There are two parts to the fix.
1. Getting the MLB at Bat app to recognize that your phone is authorized to play live content.
2. Getting the flash player to stream properly. Users encounter a live stream with only audio and no video on AOSP based roms. OR no stream at all.
FIX Part 1 (Getting MLB at Bat to authorize your phone for live content)
You need to edit the build.prop file in /system of your phone's root file system. To do this you need to use a file system viewer/edit app that can mount the file system as read/write ie. ES File Explorer or Root Explorer. I use Root Explorer. You can get this app on the market for $3.93US. Well worth the money with what it can do. ES File explorer is free on the market but is hit or miss on certain ROMs when it comes to mounting the file system to read/write. My instructions will be with Root Explorer but will be similar if you decide to use ES File Explorer.
To Begin:
Edit the build.prop (if you are a Netflix user, don't worry. It still works after this fix)
-Open Root Explorer and navigate to the root of your phone's file structure.
-Go to the file /system. Then press the Mount R/W button in the top right hand corner.
-Press and hold the file build.prop
-Scroll down and select "Open in Text Editor."
-Edit the following information exactly as it appears below under NEW.
OLD
ro.product.model=ThunderBolt
ro.product.brand=htc_wwe
NEW
ro.product.model=ADR6400L
ro.product.brand=verizon_wwe
-Then press menu> Save Changes. It will then backup your old build.prop as build.prop.bak and save the new one as build.prop
-Reboot your phone.
-After it boots up open MLB at Bat and make sure your MLB.TV account information is setup. Press and hold an in progress game. You should now have the option to watch the game live.
IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!! You need to attempt to watch a game before doing FIX Part 2 or it will not work. The file you need to edit “config.data” will not be there.
Fix Part 2
This is the same fix that is posted on the first page of slayher’s CM7 RC 1.4 post for fixing Flash player 10.3 in the stock browser by removing permissions in config.data. The only difference is we are doing it for MLB at Bat.
To begin:
-Using Root explorer navigate to /data/data/com.bamnetworks.mobile.android.gameday.atbat2011.full/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/
-Press and hold the file config.data and select Permissions.
-Remove the check marks in all the boxes and then select ok.
-Then Reboot
You should now be able to watch live games.

Thanks OP this was one of the last things that I wanted for CM7!

This is great, thanks.
Unfortunately, it does not work for me.
Part 1 was ok, I see the option to watch live feed, click on it.... does not work.... and I jump into Part 2.
But the required file is not there.
Tried many times.
Thanks anyway.

Are you using using data or wifi to stream? Are you using CM7 or OMFGB? If your on data give the app a minute to determine your location. Wifi it should start right up. Also this is assuming you have the game plan with no blackouts. The app will not stream until it knows your location via cell tower or wifi. The stream should start up with sound only and no video. Once that happens you can move on to step 2.

Also, I don't know if this makes a difference but I was using Flash 10.3 from the market, not 10.2.

Those having problems. This fix is for Flash 10.3. Try uninstalling MLB at bat and also Flash 10.3 and reboot. Then, re-install Flash 10.3 and then MLB at Bat. Turn WiFi on. Then try to play a live game. Wait for the stream to initialize with sound and then shut down MLB at Bat. Then do Part 2 of the fix.

Something is wrong (obviously) is this the first SD build you've used? Check to see if theirs a newer version and try it because their could have been a bug.. Honestly I would recommend nand install but I understand not everyone wants that. I would have to at least try reinstalling it and possibly a different rom...
Hope that helped some!

Hopefully this works! If not, try changing density to 240 (instead of 160) as many advise this is better. However a 240 density, makes display larger, while 160 is very much similar to what you now have.
(based on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344334)

I run NAND builds and this is something that I have noticed. For example an app would work just fine with typhoon CM7, but when running Hyperdroid CM7 it would give me the compatibility error like you're getting. My guess is it has something to with how the ROM is cooked, but I could be wrong; I'm still kinda NEWB

I have tried this already.When I try to save the build.prop it has an error, and says unable to save.But when I reboot and go back to build.prop its changed to 240.. go figure.I also tried the market thing by clearing cache and force stop.Also tried ROM manager and fixing the permissions.Still nodda.I guess I can try a diff build.Any suggestions? Wanna do it the SD way.Im kinda new to the phone stuff.So easier is better for me atm.

First of all, the guideline works on SD ROM installation. I never tried NAND cause I need to have dual boot option
As for the "File not saved" warning, before editing the boot.prop remember to change permissions (you've missed a step)! After all changes are done, save and close. Then restore permissions...

Thats probally my issue, the other tut like this i used didnt have the change permission thing.How do I change permission on such file?

After changing density to 160, you also have to change the phone model infos (search for adjusting build.prop to htc vision, but I'm not sure of this can be done in SD builds.
Also, you have to (after changing density) reboot and then force srop market and clear market data and cache.
Altogether, this should do it.
Edit: to be able to rewrite build.prop, get ES task explorer (it's free) and you have settings there, at their bottom is make system writable. Check that.

When I long click build.prop.. theres no option to change permissions.

What file manager do u use?
I use 'File Expert' as file manager and by long press on the file, a pop-up menu appears. It has 'Permissions' at the mid-lower part of the menu. Open it and just enable all-you will fix permissioms at the end..
I don't know how other file managers handle this, but I'm sure they do it somehow!

Go to settings, check root explorer and then check mount system as writable.
Save, reboot, and you should be there. It might ask for superuser permission, which you allow.

Here's how my part of my build.prop looks, maybe it will help, you should change it exactly to these:
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.brand=tmobile
ro.product.name=vision
ro.product.device=vision
ro.product.board=vision
(then few lines lower)
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
(Few more lines lower)
ro.build.product=vision
Plus of course the density to 160.
Save, reboot, clear market data and cache.
I have just checked my market and for me words with friends free is available for download.
So if THIS doesn't work, I give up.

That would be cool except I havd an HD2 not vision.And the board is leo not vision.Im not a phone DEV person, but somehow that doesnt look correct to me.If I changed my build.prop for htc hd leo to htc vision, it might corrupt my build.Maybe Im wrong, but I got this build out of the HTC HD2 leo android forums.
