Hi
My middle button is stuck and forces my HD2 into safe mode booting.
The apps that I had added shortcuts for on my screen start OK, but non-google apps do not show up in the app tray. I don't have access to any other apps which may allow me to easily access system areas etc.
Does anyone know a way that I could run an app? Specifically, I would like to run Titanium Backup, as I'm going to buy a Moto Defy today (so water damage does not get me again!)
Thanks
Tim
No ideas?
Mainly want to get my Angry Birds data off onto my new Defy!

Install Droid Explorer on your pc
Plug the phone in and pull the data from angry birds straight from the phone into the computer and then back into your new phone
You can do a search here on xda and find the exact location of the saved game progress in angry birds... I ran into it months ago
best of luck
Ah great - many thanks!
Glad I'm not the only one who is nuts enough that one of my major concerns is getting Angry Birds data off the broken phone!
Hello All,
I'm quite the noob (see? didn't even use zeroes) and I rooted my Fire using the Kindle Fire Utility. I installed market, did CHMOD and all that to the apk, and installed Market Opener. I can get to the market fine, but most apps I want to download, like the facebook app, or the twitter app, I get "Your device isn't compatible" Anyone have any ideas to remedy this one?
You might be able to fix some of those issues by editing your build.prop to make it look like another device. I believe there is either a utility or tutorial kicking around here somewhere, maybe in the development section?
im not sure theres away around that until someone does a screen density hack, like with the nook color its baked into cm7. eventually it wont be a problem, for now just google apk you want and download it, with my friends i just have a dropbox shared folder and when ever we find an app that we cant acces in the market we just put it in that folder for the rest of us.

I have the same issue with the sideloaded apps that I originally bought on Android Market with my phone. I don't want to root, but it seems like it would be worthwhile for someone to make a utility that will patch an APK to fool Kindle into thinking the app is made for Kindle.
Of course, then maybe there would be some validation issues between the app and the market.
Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I'll try it out when I get home tonight and let you know if anything suggested works.
K, so I reflashed my phone and proceeded to repeat what I did to gain access to the G-Gee Market and Square Enix. It is not really easy to do.
Download this zip with all 3 G-Gee Markets, install each one but the one you want to really use is the GameBox installer.
After they are all installed download the modded build.prop I used (its from my Xperia PLAY, if on another phone just copy the SO-01C to all references of Build, Model, etc)
Modded Build.prop
Save as a text document, backup your old build.prop (system/build.prop) Then copy the modded build.prop to the same place as your original.
http://db.tt/1RQUKz4C
Next you need to download/install Market Enabler and set it to Japan - Docomo, reboot your phone.
Market Enabler:
http://db.tt/OWdfOWX6
After the above steps are done and you have rebooted. Open Market Enabler and set it again to DOCOCMO, then copy this link to your gmail and send it to your self.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ggee.gameboxam
Open the email and select the link and select Play Market to open, it should then be able to let you download the G-Gee ticket for the game from the Android Market, it should hten automatically open the GameBox installed and let you download nd install the King of Fighters.
I have done this same process 3 times now and each time it worked.
Found this and wanted to share with y'all

If you loon at the bottom it shows the Devil May Cry and says "coming soon". I will be keeping an eye out for this game...guarantee.

Hmm... I'm noticing a trend here.
Seems G-Gee's bringing out all those games shown off during Sony's Japanese Xperia PLAY launch specials.
EDIT: Looks like that's not all they're doing... snooping a little further in, I saw that they're promoting Disgaea Infinite on the Play Store, and even a special Android King of Fighters game!
Hear that? That's the sound of me getting hard.

In digging through some of the G-Ge apps I found this,

Notice the King of Fighters
http://gmo-game.com/app/1313/
(I am going to change my build.prop to SO-01D to see if I can get this KofF apk)
For those interested there are two types of the G-Gee Markets and here they are:

Between using the market enabler, modding my build.prop to reflecct a r800i instead of r800x and the occasional Japanese VPN account I use (which is free by the way) I have been able to gain access to some of these games from the G-Gee market.
This is the pae for Devil May Cry, its not out yet..

Right now as I type this I am downloading the game Disgaea Infinite. It is really slow download but still .... hope to have the app installed, apk saved and uploaded shortly.
I can download and buy any of the market g-gee apps using market enabler and docomo as the carrier, but the games themselves are performing a device check in case anyone trys to buy these.

So far I havent seen the device check but that doesnt mean anything, just havent seen it, also I did find this, Legion any chance you may be able to snag it? I am not having any luck getting it. Its Disengaea Infinite in English.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...me.OZStore_AM_Ticket745&feature=search_result
I lied, here you go... I can install the apk but it wont let me install the additional files which it said was I think 75mb.
Here is the file in case anyone wants to have a go at this.
http://db.tt/edxr37pt
easily done, http://www.mediafire.com/?vs2e1vb05g2l97w
I would highly recommend you check this out, this lets you download any android market app directly on your computer as long as its a free app.
http://codekiem.com/2012/02/24/apk-downloader/
OK, I got the Disgaea from the Gamebox G-Gee Market, the one I got from Legion was just basically a link to the game on th GGEE market. I got the game to download and install however the only problem is that I am unable to save the game as an apk. However the 149mb additional files that downloaded, actually I think its the whole game hence the reason no apk, and I backed it up. The files were saved to a new folder on my sdcard by G-Gee called Runtime Apps, Looks like all the files are there and unfortunately it is in Japanese. I am uploading the files to my dropbox account and will be posting a download link shortly.
And here it is...... someone mind taking a look at it? It is compressed as its 129mb zipped, 145 uncompressed
http://db.tt/rqPhsSEg
OK, so you ned to have the G-Gee Market installed, and the above zipped file on your sdcard. You load up the G-Gee market and it should show you the Disgaea game under "my apps". From there you run it. That is why the game has not apk, it is all run from within the GGee market.
Just in case here is 3 different versions of the G-Gee Market, one is web based and doesnt have much. the other tow are are G-Gee & Gamebox Installed. I would recommend installing both of those 2.
Here is the link, all 3 are in a single compressed file
http://db.tt/Vrd17wNy
going to try switching my build.prop to korean and see if I can get TLtheory , and everyone else, King of Fighters by SNK. Cross your fingers.
Ummm TLtheory... in the words of Pam on the FX series Archer... Holy ****snacks.... I got the King of Fighters and believe it or not, the xperia play controls works. Again though it requires you to have the G-Gee GameBox installed as it runs the game through that. I have the download link for the Kof F below and I sure hope it works via just having the games files saved to the Runtime App on the root of the SDcard with GameBox installed. So the android market link takes you to the G-Gee Gamebox which then after installing that tkae you to the K of F on the Gamebox app to download/install. The files are a good size.
Please let me know if it works... sure hope it does....
Also, since it was so large I had to break it into 3 seperate zip files. I know its a pain but it was the only way to do it and still be able to upload
Part 1 of 3:
http://db.tt/5tp3fZpg
Part 2 of 3
http://db.tt/9YSkq0FU
Part 3 of 3
http://db.tt/g6XDhqnw
Just a heads up on the 3 download links above, 2 of the 3 came back as having errors but I was able to download them from the links and they seemed fine. If anyone has issues with the links let me know.
......well you've been busy!
would you be able to get Sonic The HedgeHog and Super Monkey Ball 1 as well?

unfortunately, I don't think it works just by copying it to the sd card, I tried a bunch of stuff like for example downloading an app that shows available to me and swapping the sd card data and so forth, no dice. Try making a titanium backup with these games already installed and upload that, that ought to work.

This is the part that sucks, I tried the TB first when I saw the apk saver app wasnt seeing the games. TB does not see the FoF or Disgaea either, as both games do not have an apk and are dependant on the GameBox. OTher then making a zip of the folders for the games and recommending installing the Gameox, thats all I could think of..
So you tried the uncompress and saved the folders to a folder on your sdcard called Runtime Apps, and had the Gamebox apk installed and you were not able to play/see the games? Hmm.....Gamebox is making this a total PITA, and probably for this very reason, to only make it available to countries that can access it.
Here is what I did to gain access to the games. I changed my buildprop to the SO-01D and went to these links: (with market enabler on Japan Dococmo)
K of F
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ggee.gameboxam
easiest way to open this was to email the above link to your gmail and open it on your phone, it then says its availanble. I selected install and installed it. OPening it then tales you to the GameBox or G-Gee market and then it allows you to Download and Installed the files. This worked for me, the files are around 45-500mb download. This same process worked for me on Disgaea,
Disgaea:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...kZWEucnVudGltZS5PWlN0b3JlX0FNX1RpY2tldDc0NSJd
This is all I can think of, as obviously saving the files and trying to transplant them onto another phone does NOT work.... try the above steps and see what you get...as said it worked for me. Attemting to look up the games on the android market after the enabler and build changes will NOT show the games on your phone, you HAVE TO open the above links from within you Gmail, hence emailing the links to yourself. Only then did it work for me.
Let me know how it goes
Could anyone upload APK file of King Of Fighters (this fighters game, not shotem-up) ? Only if is it a free game. I don't have root, so i have a hope that this game will be work like Locoroco... I love KOF serie ...
Oy... you guys are really kicking ass here!
...this is hurting my head though. I
• Modified build.prop
• Changed "ro.product.model" to "SO-01D"
• Got Market Enabler
• Faked Japan DoCoMo
...all seemed gravy til I hit some error screen. I couldn't even install KoF from the above link. I was able to grab the "com.ggee.gameboxam-3.apk" APK with the tool mentioned earlier, but that never got me to KoF.
I'm confused, and I just know I did something wrong... either way, I'm changing my build prop back for now.
There is no apk for the game. You have to run the game through the game box or g-gee. When you download the game it opens throught the ggee and then downloads the files. It saves all the files in a folder called Runtine Apps. I have no idea how to convert these files to apk as again all it is is all these .exe files.
Sent from my SO-01C using xda premium
Sooo... I see . I must wait... Maybe in some time they relese this game in google play ... I don't want root, so i can't change build.prop ...
I am going to make a video here in a couple minutes showing off the King of Fighters game on my Xperia pLAY and post it on Youtube. This game runs smooth and the controls aork awesome.... really really wish that SNK will release this to the android market. I had to buy the game for $5 from the G-Gee market and it is totally worth every penny. I will post the link once I have the video uploaded.
K, this video is almost uploaded but here is the Youtube link. Also I aplogize for the poor camera work, its my first video. I just found the app ScreenCast which records your phone screens rather then me holding a camera to it... so it should be much better picture. from here on out I will be using that to make my vids... I will make another vid soon, getting tired..... and will post it on here.......
Here is the link for the youtie video, its up now
http://youtu.be/OUDRPF401OE
Video is up, I did the best I could for my first video. And I am trying to remember everything I did to get this all to work.. honestly I was up till 230am trying to get King of Fighters to download, then to work, and so forth. I am going to attempt to recreate the process on another android phone and if it works and I can figure out a much easier process I will post as much info to help others as I can.
TLRTheory probably couldn't download it becuase he wasn't on a vpn. Yes, this is a tough one. Looking at the sd card data, it has alot of elements of an android apk, but its not all there...... its incomplete. There are two attack vectors available to us:
1: Find a way to modify the sdcard data/g-gee market
2: Try to inject the game data into an apk file and pray it works without force closes.
I will try both, but number 2 is really unlikely due to me ****ing hating using Eclipse.
Hey all..... just got a Forge TV for playing around with. Man is it crippled. No Netflix, no Hulu. Went to the play store via PC to push the apps and I get a "device not compatible." Problem is it is saying the same thing with my NP and my N9, N6 AND N5. Can anyone else to a looksy and confirm about not compatible with the NP on the Play Store?
With the Forge, USB is worthless as per usual, OTG/external storage is unusable without tweaking. That being said, planning to ADB over a few apps to get it set up. Problem is that I need a few APKs that I don't have at the moment.
Could anyone share ES file explorer (free version please,) and the Netflix and Hulu APKs pulled from an NP? Gonna try to crack this thing wide open shortly, but in the meantime, I would love if it could be couch sitter usefull like my NP. Was going to root my NP but seeing the Play issues I seem to note, hesitant to do that (as the wife would NOT be happy if she can't watch Orange is the New Black.)
NM on the ES File Explorer..... found the thread with the link to it + Sideload Launcher. Still questioning on the app compatibility issue though.
Thanks a ton!

you can get any apk you want with this site http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
for instance, for https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hulu.livingroomplus
enter com.hulu.livingroomplus in the evozi input box then click the blue bar then the green bar and you'll get the apk file.
As for the NP, since the latest update a lot of apps aren't "pushable" from the web anymore, even ES File Explorer.
But from NP Play Store (so I guess the Forge too) you can voice search the 'Google' app (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDV1s5AaJII) then install it and use it to search and install more apps (including ES File Explorer). It should work even without a mouse (but it's easier with a mouse).
Went to Play Store just now and seem to have lost all the compatibility I gained using Market Helper 2.0.4 and have retained ever since my first day with the device in mid February. Apps that I already have installed on my device (via Play Store) are now seen as incompatible with my MOJO. What gives? I tried running Market Helper again but now I get an error saying "Cannot send device config". For what it's worth, I'm running stock MO0202-WW, rooted with TowelRoot.
I'm really starting to think I backed the wrong horse with this box. It does a lot of things that make me happy, but just as many that drive me nuts. Probably should've spent the extra $85 for Shield TV.
EDIT: Cleared Play Store cache, went back to full compatibility. Rookie mistake, false alarm, my mistake everyone.
Hang 'em at sunrise, no rookie mistakes allowed... Oh wait, there wouldn't be much need for this forum if that didn't happen, would there? In fact, good reminder--check the basic stuff first! Something we all tend to forget.
