http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264827

didnt see where it said that but i really dont wanna change roms just for huku. on my atrix ni matter what rom i flash i drop my modded flash.so fil in data/data/com.../lib and all flash videos work. this is the fix im looking for.
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk

you should do the exact same thing that you do on your phone. I have been using hulu since day one using this method. Just search for the modified library.so file and make sure you change the permissions to rw-rw-r (or whatever all the other files in that folder are) you will need some type of root explorer or adb to push the files to the correct folder.
also, you will need to redo this if you reboot. it doesnt persist through a reboot.

Civato mix 3 along with a hulufied flash will run hulu np

[Q] Need help reinstalling stock Twitter app

Okay, I rooted my N1 with Universal Androot and removed the stock Froyo Twitter app without backing it up. (Shame on me.) Now, I can't update to 2.2.1 because of it (a status 7 error complaining about not finding /system/app/Twitter.apk)
I have, at the advice of some other forum posts I've read, installed Twitter from Android Market and backed it up to the sd. Renamed it Twitter.apk and used the Terminal Emulator to copy it to /system/app. That worked and the file is there, but the update still will not apply. Do I also need a .odex file? Is there any way to update at this point?
Any help would be super appreciated. THANKS!
if this is the new twitter app would you be kindly enough to share it..lol
Sent from my Nexus One
grab it from an older update like from frf91 update.. then do adb push /system/app
if you cant do that...
put the twitter app in sdcard then go to terminal and do
cp /sdcard/twitter /system/app
reboot then apply it.. i had trouble with amazon and i did it that way and it worked well

That's exactly what I did. It didn't work.

It looks as though I can't flash the GAPPS without unlocking the bootloader and installing a new recovery, correct? I'm really not that motivated if that's the case. I appreciate the information.
OK, just download the GAPPS, then use something like estrongs file manager to unzip to a folder of choice (with estrongs, longpress and select extract).
The Twitter apk will be in the extract folder/system/app. Just click the apk to install...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
BTW, if you have root, you may as well install a custom recovery (without touching the bootloader).
Easy way with ROM Manager (has Clockworkmod and Amon-Ra), or use adb if you wanna learn something...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Thanks for the tips. I'll check it out tomorrow when I can make a data transfer. I am doubtful that installing from the zip will solve much since I already loaded the app and its already in the system folder.
could someone verify whether or not the Twitter app has a corresponding odex file that I might need?
I ran into the same problem when I removed Amazon Mp3, but I was impatient so I ended up reflashing the stock rom and then updating.
There is a thread that has all n1 updates look for it and download froyo fr91 update then unzip it go to system app and look for twitter apk then put in sdcard and do commands again .. I tried to do with market twitter and it failed so I did it the way I'm explained andnworkd

You sir, have saved my life. I swear I used that same exact Twitter.apk but I must not have. I used 3 different apks all with the same result but the one in the zip I found somewhere in this forum worked perfectly. I appreciate all the help and feel like such a 'tard for not trying something so seemingly simple earlier.

Liberty rom not working with mp3 files

Not sure if this is a known issue but I can't play mp3 files with the liberty rom. I was using grummy before this one and had the same problem. It says file type not supported if I try to play it. This is probably related but I can't play any songs off of Pandora or grooveshark. Any tips as to what's happening. I tried unmounting my SD card aand mounting it and tried using winamp still no luck.

did you come from 2.3.15 or 2.3.32/34?
If you came from 2.3.15, I think that is the reason. You need to update your kernel.
If you came from 2.3.32 or higher, I don't know.
I'm currently using 2.6.32 not sure what I came from. Is there a way to check without restoring my backup?

In "About Phone" what is your kernel version?
i had the same problem, u will have to flash back to stock, update your version then flash back over to liberty, thats what i had to do, and now it works fine
Ok I found a zip that says it will update my kernal can I just flash that instead of going back to stock?

I think you can just flash that, but I haven't tried it. You might want to ask @P3Droid on twitter if you are using his (TBH) .zip.

If audio isnt working, then i am 100% surr e you are/were still kn 2.3.15 update. I was in the same boat. If you really want to stay on your current version, let me know. I have the files that will fix your issue.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
NOTE: These files are only useful if you are on the 2.3.15 OTA from Verizon and are running Liberty or GummyJar 2.5
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP OF YOUR PHONE BEFORE DOING THIS! I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR PHONE IF YOU MESS IT UP
Take this zip file that is attached, there should be two .so files under the /system/lib folder.
you will need root explorer to do this most easily. If you don't have root explorer, you can use adb to push the files to your phone.
Open a command prompt to the directory where you saved these files and enter the following commands:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
**KEEP THIS FIRST WINDOW OPEN
Open a second command prompt window and issue the following commands:
adb push libbridge.so /system/lib/libbridge.so
adb push libLCML.so /system/lib/libLCML.so
Go back to the first command prompt and issue the follow commands:
cd /system/lib
chmod 644 libbridge.so
chmod 644 libLCML.so
Go back to the 2nd command prompt and enter the following:
adb remount
adb reboot
Your phone will now reboot, and once it has booted back up, you should be good to go!
Good luck and enjoy!
I have this same issue but it doesnt appear to be related to firmware. My handset is on 340 and MP3's play when on the stock rom but fail to do so when on Liberty 1.5.

My guess would be just a bad install unfortunately. I would use the Liberty Toolbox to backup your apps/data and then backup any other info you made need (contacts if not synced to gmail, etc.) and then do a re-install of Liberty 1.5
See if this helps out the problem, as I have seen this work before. I have had a few issues when coming from different ROM's and then going to Liberty 1.5, a fresh install over the top helped me.
Does it play any sound at all or just mp3s? That seems like an odd bug. Did you try using winamp or doubleTwist to see if that fixes it? Maybe go liberty apps setting and install the music add on. Maybe that will help. Good luck.

[MOD] Uncapped Data - Gingerbread 4.5.588 Deodexed - Now flashable via Clockwork

I edited services.jar that came with the newest Gingerbread 4.5.588 deodexed system to disable data throttling.
Tested and works, though you may want to make a backup of your services.jar file first. I take no responsibility if you screw up your phone
(Make sure you're running deodexed system)
Instructions:
1. Place zip file in root of sdcard.
2. Boot into clockwork.
3. Install zip from sdcard.
4. Choose the zip on your card.
5. Reboot.
Note: You MAY have to mount system first. I know in the past people have ran into that problem. I personally did not have to mount system.
Enjoy!
This does not work ....
It absolutely does work. Feel free to decompile the .dex file yourself to see if the throttling files are still intact and compare it against the .dex decompile of stock. Or maybe you could post WHY you think it doesnt work instead of just stating that it doesnt.

Were you trying to flash it in recovery? If so then it will not work. There are also two other ways to do this. You can extract the file and replace your services.jar file in root explorer or you could use the commands provided (without the adb) in the app terminal emulator.
To the developer, thank you for making this but if someone says it doesn't work, you do not need to get mad at them. That will keep others away from downloading your files
No I followed the directions step by step and i replaced it via Root Explorer restarted and all it does is do a large freezeup. I tried this twice and all you get is a freezeup on restart. In return all I got out of this is a SBF Flash twice back to 4.5 and deodoxed again -.-
Im not mad in the slightest. Im here to help. Unfortunately its very hard to help with so little details. "It doesnt work" doesnt help everyone else.
Now, Im not sure whats going on with his particular issues, but I can guarantee it does work. Im running it now on my own personal device and have tested it on 3 other Droid X's running 4.5.588 deodexed. The services.jar file came straight from P3Droid's deodexed update.zip. The throttling files were removed and I packaged up the file.
To the person having issues: are you absolutely sure youre deodexed? Are you using P3Droid's deodexed update? Did you attempt using the adb commands and if so did you receive any errors? I will say, I have not tried this with root explorer so I cant predict the outcome, though it shouldn't work any differently than adb.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Ive never made an update.zip file before, but maybe Ill look into packaging it that way and see if he can have any luck with that.
Edit: Just packaged it into flashable zip. See first post.

Yes I used p3droids new deodexed for 4.5.588 then applied the services.jar in the framework folder did a restart and got big freeze. I haven't got a chance to do the adb push ... I will try that when I get home tonight.
Thanks GC14 for this!!! I am still on the original GB deodex rooted leak. Do you have, or is there an uncapped data service.jar for that release? thanks
Im not sure, but I can just patch that one too and upload it if you want.

Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
P3droid recently posted a fix for his deodexed leak that fixed fc issues by making it slightly oxdexed and slightly deodexed, will this work with it?
Depends if services.jar is odexed or deodexed. Open up his new build and check to see if services.odex and services.jar are both inside /system/framework. That would mean it's odexed.
does the OS need to be deodexed for uncapped mod to work?
Did you use Clockwork for DX or D2? I have Clockwork for DX installed but can never boot into it.
Disable USB Debugging and then try DX Clockwork.
Is there a way to get this on the oxed .591 GB leak? PLEEEASE

Just updated my Xoom Wifi to 3.1 with adb recovery. Did other people, (ie 3G Xoom owners) have the new Videos app installed by default? Its not on my Xoom nor is it in the Market.
dont have it on my wifi with 3.1 either. I didn't get the OTA update though, I updated mine through clockworkmod

Try browsing to the video and open it.

Yes, /system/app and I will check the permissions right now.
Forgive me for not knowing the numerical value, but it is:
-rw-r--r-- root.root
just like all the others, doesn't appear to be any special value.
cant seem to figure this one out. I'm on wifi only. Theres a videos.apk in system/app/ with a bizarre 2008 modified date. Package installer on that other apk is unsuccessful. Tried to uninstall, but videos doesnt seem to be listed in manage applications. Renamed the original videos.apk, and package installer still doesnt work. Tried to move the new apk/odex to system/app/ and they dont seem to do anything.
Any advice and did us wi-fi folks get shafted?
I had a small Videos.apk file already there that appeared to be nonfunctional. Replaced with your files, chmod 644, rebooted. I still don't see them in my app list, and Titanium Backup shows com.google.android.videos at the end of the list with a strikethrough. The only option I get on a tap is to uninstall it.

Edit: Also, I pushed these files with adb to /sdcard then used an adb root shell to place them by hand into /system/app, if that matters.

Sorry you guys are having issues, unfortunately I don't have access to a Wifi XOOM until this weekend.
This behavior seems so odd though, why is the wifi geeking out. Maybe there is a model check?
I'm afraid pushing around files and some build.prop editing is about as far as my knowledge goes at the moment. I'm pretty good with linux in general, but the intricacies of Android are still new to me. I do have the modified root boot image for 3.1 applied now, along with the su and Superuser.apk binaries, as well as busybox 1.19 all linked up, so I'm about as rooted as it gets I think.
If you have any ideas I'd be happy to beat up on mine trying them out.

Is it possible that the Videos app won't work if you're rooted since this update introduces the new Widevine DRM framework and with root you could presumably rip streams?

I am rooted, and it is working fine for me, but it worked after install and never didn't work. (VZW 3G model).
Haven't tried any DRM'd content though.
For what it is worth, I rented Being John Malkovich just to see if it played... and it just says buffering over and over and then errors out, but no details.
Most likely is just release day issues, but I don't see google as being short on processing power or bandwidth..
*EDIT*
After still not being able to stream the movie, I chose to make it available offline, and I got this message:
"Unable to fetch license for "Being John Malkovich" error 49"
Splendid. Going to flash back to the original boot.img see if that helps.
*EDIT 2*
Flashing back to the stock 3.1 boot.img didn't help any. Went back to the insecure, rooted one. Hope someone with a stock install can chime in if it works or not. I like how it was okay to take my money and add it to my library but yet I can't play it :/
Missing the Video app here, too. Xoom Wifi.
Tried installing the APK above, but that also did not work.
The app is already in the /system/app folder guys. I suspect you may need to load a, movie or rent a movie before it will show up.

[Q] Partition Mount Points.

I did a search here and on Google of course and couldn't find any definitve information.....but, does anyone know the partition mount points for cache, system, data, and boot?
I just got my Nexus 7 and one of the things I missed dearly from my Rezound was a Superwipe script, so I'm trying to modify the one for the Rezound to work for the N7. Any information devs could provide would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. Once I get it working, if I get the permission from the creators of it, I will release it here for everyone.

This is taken from the android kitchen op as a method for finding the mount points within a specific Rom. It should work for any one in the dev section.
"If the stock ROM images for your device contain the recovery.img file, extract its files from the kitchen menu: Advanced --> Tools for boot image --> Extract from boot.img/recovery.img in any folder. Then, open up its ramdisk folder, and look for /system/etc/recovery.fstab or /etc/recovery.fstab or similar FSTAB file location. Open this file to find the mount points." Hopefully this helps ya

A friend informed me on how to get the mount points info through a dB, so I did that. The person who made the flashable Superwipe is looking into it tomorrow and then I'll test it when he's done and if all goes well, see what he says about posting it in the dev forum for everyone.

For anyone's future interest I found it by searching for: nexus 7 partition layout xda
Edit: Will do some peeking at a ROM script tomorrow (if I have time at work) and port my tool. Last time I ported this to a device with JB native was SGS3 and the person who flashed a ROM afterwards got an error about 'error encrypting' he couldn't tell me anything more and I don't have that device and don't have that issue with my G2x's hacked JB, so I said eff it.
