Could any of the verizon owners please provide a copy of the MediaHub.apk app as well as a copy of their build.prop just to verify the setup to use the apk on non verizon tabs. Thanks

Anyway you can share your build.prop or take a screen shot of it. I installed the app changed my build.prop to show as verizon tab but app won't open. If anyone else can share your thoughts, thanks.

Did you install it by copying it to system/app and then rebooting or did you install it as a user app? If you copied it to the system/app directory, did you check the permissions of the file first?
HTH.

Installed as user app. How do I check the permissions?
Using Galaxy Tab 7.7 P6800
So i tried to modify the build.prop by changing GT-P6800 to SCH-I815 to spoof the app into thinking its installed in a Verizon tab but no luck. Any suggestions?

You should uninstall it as a user app and use adb to push it to /system/app/ directory.
to check permissions:
adb shell
ls -l /system/app/filename.ext
where filename.ext is the name of the apk.
Compare it to any of the other files in the /system/app folder
do
ls -l /system/app
The thing is that I don't know how to use adb, but I have already copied it to the system/app. I don't know what else to do for it to work, that's if it even will work. It shows up as com.Samsung.mediahub.apk

So i used the ls -l /system/app on terminal emulator and noticed that all the apps contain a .apk and .odex extention, I also noticed that mediahub does not show up even though its in the system/app. If i click on com.Samsung.madiahub.apk I can select to install it but it says its already installed. Anyone with more knowledge if they can help me sort this out. Sorry for being such a pain in the @$$

The short answer is those permissions are fine.
If you want a bit more detail, unix filesystems have three permissions per file, and each permission assigned to three categories of users. The permissions are read, write, and execute, and the user categories are owner, group, and everyone, respectively. So you have rw-rw-r-- meaning that the owner (usually root for android files) and everyone in the file's group (in android terms, anyone with the permission to read/write the sd card) can read and write but not execute the file, and everyone can read it. The last one is the most important, that everyone have read permission. If you're wondering why an app doesn't need "execute" permission, just remember that permissions are a low-level filesystem construct and apps are actually packages of higher-level stuff. Execute permission is only relevant to native binaries (think .exe files in Windows) and scripts (think .bat files). The latter is relevant if you ever modify your init.d scripts, as they need to be executable.
As for why the app isn't working, I have no idea. You could try to change your build.prop again with SCH-I815 instead of SCG-I815 like you seem to have currently (at least, according to your forum signature thing). I'm not surprised that Samsung would lock down their hub apps per device though. Have you tried media hub apk from SGS2 or something similar?
You know what I thought I had changed the build.prop back to read gt-p6800 but I guess I didn't, thanks for that. I did make changes to the build.prop to read sch-i815 as per another member that provided their verizon build.prop and i kept getting screen refreshes so i had to restore the system. I don't know what else to try. I am sure it could be done as I was able to do it on my original tab using mediahub and build.prop from att tab and run it on tmobile tab and it worked so i thought this would be the same. If i where to use the mediahub hub from the sg2 I would be stuck in the same predicament. Hopefully someone whit a lot more knowledge can shade some light. Thank you for the info and help.
You might want to just flash the rooted, deodexed stock rom found in the development section rather than try to piece together stock again. The apk I posted earlier was from my own debloated, deodexed rom.

This is a new Gingerbread Sense rom Please make a nandroid backup before Flashing, just incase you don't like it, so you wont hate me.

http://www.multiupload.com/FEO9PZLOCP - DEBIAN squeeze, working for your eris, web, and basic setup openoffice works on this, I uninstalled for space, but just about anything that works on a desktop works on this img. Follow instructions below.
Made for 3 partitions, Fat32, ext2, swap.
To use this rom correctly you must partition your sdcard as follows:
adb shell
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
print
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
remove any partitions
Code:
rm1
rm2
rm3
rm4
rm5

now create new partitions these partitions should be as so, for sense or 2.1, or gingerbread roms fat32 ext2 swap file is the order, for froyo I believe it is swap ext2 fat32, but I have not tried a froyo rom yet.
16GB sdcard, change for your correct card amount
Code:
mkpartfs primary fat32 0 11500MB
mkpartfs primary ext2 11500MB 15500MB
mkpartfs primary linux-swap 152500MB 15900MB

A few notes:
1. IF YOU HAVE ANY PERMISSION ERRORS i.e the camera not saving images to sdcard, you have to unmount your sdcard and remount it.
2. If you don't have an ext2 or a swap partition, everything will be ok, but if you do make sure they are in the correct order, because on boot the sdcard is mounted
3. there are a few custom commands in the terminal,
Code:
bash free, term, linux, nano, swapon, swapscriptv2, swap-off, swapon50, swapon60, swapon70, swapon80, swapon90, bootscriptv2, bootswap90,bootswap80,bootswap70, mountsd, umountsd, mountsd2pc, umountsd2pc, linuxloop
[QUOTE][COLOR=red]4. This rom first boot is close to 10 minutes, be patient it will pay off.[/COLOR][/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]To use bash it is a good idea to add this to the terminal emulator's initial command just below PATH
[CODE]su -c bash
[/QUOTE]
That sets the terminal up to use bash, this will allow you to use your tracball to scroll threw old commands.
3. To chroot into linux, it is very easy if you dont have the linux, To use this debian.img download the debain.img from above and push to sdcard. /sdcard/debain.img
busybox mount -o rw,remount /
mkdir /sdcard/debain
mount -o rw,loop -t ext2 /sdcard/debain.img /sdcard/debian
dd if=/sdcard/debain of=/mnt/linux

this will take some time several hours maybe. use a file manager to check your progress.
Once the copy is complete, than you can open the terminal and type

this should put you into a localhost:#

nano /etc/init.android/rc_enter.sh

the new debian.img is roughly 2.5 gigs so I would make enough room on your ext2 partition for 2.5 gigs at least, if you have any problems let me know
here is a link to an old thread of 2 versions of linux, NEITHER of these are the debian.img I have and am working on. these two are just incase you want to try to play around.
you will need to know a little about linux to get them running, but they will work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=823564

you say wifi hotspot isn't working.
was that ever even a feature available for the eris?
never has worked besides an app, the only reason I say isnt working is because there is an app that works, for wifi tether, and wpasupplicant should be able to handle wifi hotspot, we just need to go threw a few files and rewrite the code. If someone has the hear they can do this, or an nother way that would make me happy would be just to change the link, for settings wifi hotspots to wifi tether app
either way I would like a more perminant way to use wifi tether make it look native
hows debian run? and which version is it?

U need to read the GPL license here... Links to sources used for Rom's and Apps have to be posted in the OP. This is an open source forum, therefore sources need to have links for others to share in. I'm assuming since the source link isn't posted, this rom is a clone of someone else's and therefore doesn't belong up here. Given your response to the dev, that just confirms it.
Bringing Kaos back to the Eris community? Why, so you have some new source code to use? Dude, just post the source link and everything will be totally fine... If it's a clone, atleast give credit and discuss it with the Dev...
Wpw just the kind of thing I want to read in a PUBLIC FORUM. This seems like a PRIVATE issue and I am sure a lot of folks would appreciate it if y'all kept it that way.

You know there were people before you that could create roms, there are people after you can will create more roms, yours is not the best, and you try to say that it is.
I was kind enough to not tell people all you do is put a luancher on an old build of froyo, and call it a new rom, like your IPHONE ROM, and the reason I can say this is, because about a year ago I posted the windows7.apk. This post stopped you from creating " a new rom" even though it was no new rom, just an old foryo with a new windows7.apk. Talk about taking peoples work and making it yours.

This ROM is intended as a base for other ROM's OR regular use without all the bloatware.
It is a "clean" stripped out version of the 7.006.01_COM_GEN2 update (full update, not OTA). The COM_GEN version does not matter a great deal. It will not hurt anything to install this on a GEN1 or GEN3 tablet. The hardware is exactly the same.
I keep track of everything that is changed, you can view the history and create this ROM yourself.
This will probably be the last update on this ROM until a large change in the OS occurs again. I built it to be quick, stable, and bloatware free. It is all of those.
Latest Version
Version History:
v1110062238
v1109261806
v1109252300
v1109251910 - Initial Release
Orginal ROM I worked off of can be found here
Notes:
This ROM will not recieve over the air updates. You would need to restore FWUpdateService* and FDUpdater* to re-enable OTA.
This requires CWM or similar to flash. It does not modify the recovery partition when installed.
Google Maps, Videos, Music2, and AdobeFlash have been removed. The latest versions can be downloaded through the market.
Feel free to restore any apks you you want, they should reintegrate without issue.

Changed updater-script as needed.
Removed an additional unneeded apk and a few files.
The version of su and Superuser.apk is from su-3.0.2-efgh-signed.zip.
Installed busybox v1.19.2 and symlinked the appropriate binaries in the updater-script.
v1109261806 -
Removed a few additional unneeded apks.
The version of su and Superuser.apk is from su-3.0-efgh-signed.zip.
v1109252300 -
Changed updater-script as needed.
Removed the bootloader.blob (Locked bootloaders don't concern me but would give you trouble!)
v1109251910 -
Changed updater-script as needed.
Deodexed entire ROM by hand using baksmali/smali v1.2.8.
The version of su and Superuser.apk is from su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip.
Opened flexrom.img and removed folder app. This had a preinstall apk that did nothing in this version. It only brought up an annoying message when firstrun saying "apk preinstaller complete".

Do you have a recommendation of kernal for this? Are you using Richards?
I am not currently using a stock kernel with this. I have not changed anything. I am in the process of getting together a few boot.img with new kernels and posting those here as extras. In the meantime richards should work assuming it is compatible with 3.2 (im 99% sure it is)

What are these files used for? I thought the framework jars were a necessary part of the OS (not a programmer or anything) Should I install them?

These are extras for dev use only. If you aren't building a rom this wont matter to you,
I just finished installing the ROM.
During the installation, however, I got this error.
random offset 0x136
Does this mean anything? The installation did go without any other glitches and I have been using the tablet with your ROM for about half an hour now. Works without any problems.
How do you get the media server working with clearfi , now it crashes when you try to start the media server in clear fi.
EDIT:
Ok I got it , added the clearfi framework and the Acer DLNA apk and now it works.

I always receive that message for every ROM I install. I have never tracked down why it is there. I believe it has to do with formatting a partition (maybe installing the flexrom?), but I do not know. Unless you are told otherwise, I wouldn't worry about it.
I get random offset messages to , but never experience any problems .
First , REALLY nice rom , you can install what you want and it is fast !!!
GPS fix is so fast and this even when I'm in the house ( I did use a modded GPS config for it but I did that with all the roms).
Not working , tegrazone but that is no problem.
The HD widget doesn't find my location if I set it at auto search (strange because the gps lock-on is so fast) that is the only problem that I got with it and that is no biggy.
Thanks !!!!!!

Also modded my "build prop" before flash = added "ro.carrier=wifi-only" so the simcard messages won't pop-up.
Using THOR 3.5 kernel and NO problems , can oc the hell out of it.
Im glad to hear it! I will check into tegrazone and update the dependencies section with what I find. Also, did you restore the Clearfi xml file to the etc permissions folder as well? I dont know if it will cause issue if you dont, but it is there in the original ROM.
/system/etc/permissions/com.acer.android.clearfilib_tablet.xml
Are you using an A500? Or an A501?
Thanks. Downloading now
I'm liking the sound of this rom, I'll be giving it a shot in a few and installing richardtrips 3.2 kernel.
I'll report back with my findings.

Did not restore the ClearFI xml in etc permissions , it is restored automaticly when you restore the .jar in the framework.
Look at my sig : I'm using a Packard Bell LibertyTab (exactly the same as a A500) So wifi only. After flash of this rom I got a A500. Packard bell is just so slow on updates still HC3.0.1
I made some changes to the rom for me , now it installes "busybox" , "drivemount"and "es file explorer" when you flash it , don't need to go into the market to install those apps.
For the tegra zone I can use the kitchen for taboonay , tested this and it worked.

Busybox & drivemount install on flash
In the main folder I put the "installbusybox" file from Taboonay 2.1 (SO A BIG THANKS TO VACHE)
And in the system/xbin folder I put the "busybox" file from Taboonay 2.1 (SO A BIG THANKS TO VACHE)
And the drivemount.apk from that same taboonay rom.
(extract files from taboonay and place it at the same place it is installed on the taboonay rom)
All working supurb.
You dont need vache's files for that.
You can set everything up in the updater-script. Just setup the symlinks there, and permissions for the busybox binary.
I am a bit curious about the SIM card messages. I have never received one. We know ro.carrier=wifi-only will fix it, but again I have never received one.
If you have a decent ROM you should post it in a new thread for everyone to enjoy. That was part of my goal here

I really don't know where to start with the the update-script , I'm a noob at these things , I do everything with trail and error .
But like I said the rom is working fast and smooth.
Well I got the sim card messages because of the custom kernel I'm running.
If I did some more testing I will post the rom for download.
Again thanks for this rom and the apps , it's nice to fool around with something I don't know.
I had to stop using this rom , I think you moved to many things , it was not stable , (gps was doing strange things , keeps hanging in search) , but is was really good for benchmarking.
Could you just deodex and su it and leave the rest as it is so I can mess around with it.
I've been using this Rom since yesterday afternoon and I've yet to have any instabilities, FC's or issues with it. It's exactly what I have been looking for, just a clean stripped vanilla rom. The only app I've felt compelled to put back was livewallpaperspicker.apk so I can use multiple live wallpaper, also added the build.prop line to remove sim card notification. Everything else I got from the market.
My GPS doesn't seem to have any ill effects, I used the worldwide modified gps.conf and pick up 4-5 satellites pretty quick using GPS status and GPS test. I'll have to spend most of the day about towns o I'll put the GPS through it's paces an report any problems.
BTW I'm running Richardtrips 3.4 kernel @ 1.5ghz, it's solid and it does great in benchmark .

Its funny that you say that, I actually stripped everything out to INCREASE stability. I found that with acers crap added back in, the whole system wanted to crash a bit more often.
I do have the entire rom deodex'd. If you would like to download the deodex-app.zip in my third post and dump all of those files to the /system/app/ folder then install the zip, you will have what you are asking for.
If you can explain what was crashing in a bit more detail, we can probably track down the cause (be it this ROM or otherwise)
i have PA, MIUIJB, CynaX... .etc. installed in my NativeSD everythings workn great..
just have a noob question... how can i share apps from all the NativeROMs??

Sharing apps is not supported yet... Maybe in the future. You never know what HD2 is capable to do.
:victory: Sounds Possible!! HD2 is one hell of a machine :good:
Any news on this? I took a look at securecrt's post here and it says the following:
Code:
# /NativeSD/NexusHD2/
# /system
# /data
# /PA/
# /system
# /data
# /MIUI/
# /system
# /data
# /app
# [COLOR="Red"]the app dir is shared for all ROMs[/COLOR]
Do I have to manually put apps into the above mentioned folder so that all ROMs can use them?
Thanks for any help!

I want to edit my default.prop such that:
ro.secure=0
ro.debuggable=1
persist.service.adb.enable=1
Currently my default.prop
ro.secure=1
ro.debuggable=0
persist.service.adb.enable=0
I tried to use setpropex to change it, but it doesn't seem to work in Android 4.4. When I type in getprop in ADB my default.prop shows that it has not been changed.
default.prop is stored in the ramdisk and it's values cannot be modified by setprop by design on all versions of android
prop files are merely text files that android loads the values of at runtime, if you change their values with setprop the files wont be changed unless you manually modify them.
You can either unpack the ramdisk, modify it's contents, repack it, flash the updated boot.img
or use something like: [root] adbd Insecure - Chainfire (there's a free version in the description)
Most custom kernels should already have those values, if you manually modify the stock one,
keep in mind that you will need to undo and redo it every time you use an official ota or it will fail to patch.
I installed CM 11.12 on my HD+ last November, and it works fine. The only thing is, when I view my devices at https://play.google.com/settings, the HD+ doesn't show any image for the device.
This is tremendously annoying
So, I created a new /system/build.prop to have some values that matched those in the original B&N build.prop. Here is a "diff" of the changes:
Code:
diff build.prop build.new
--- build.prop
+++ build.new
@@ -17,14 +17,14 @@
ro.product.board=ovation
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi

# ro.build.product is obsolete; use ro.product.device
ro.build.product=ovation
-ro.product.model=BN NookHD+
+ro.product.model=BNTV600
ro.product.device=ovation
I saved the original build.prop and renamed build.new to build.prop, and rebooted. Presto! I am no longer annoyed!
Caveat: The https://play.google.com/apps page for my apps now shows that the B&N Nook app is now "incompatible" with my HD+. However, I had already installed the Nook app from the Play Store, and it doesn't object. However, you probably want to save a copy of the original build.prop, if you have any plans to install (or reinstall) the Nook app. It's possible there's a combination of build.prop values that will serve both purposes, but I didn't experiment further.
Edit: I tried changing the "ro.product.manufacturer" to something else, and the above Google Play device list no longer showed the HD+ image, so it's back to "BN LLC" (apparently a match necessary for the image lookup).
