[Ported] Amazon Silk Browser From Kindle Fire - Working on Thunderbolt

OK, this started out mostly for my own amusement but it worked so I thought I would put this out there for anyone who wants to mess with it.
This is the Amazon Browser (Silk / Cloud9) that just shipped on the Kindle Fire. Someone asked if it could be ported so I gave it a shot. Just a few files to get it working.
BUT....to be more reasonable for use on a phone I think it needs some graphics tweaking as this was intended for a 7" tablet.
Something to tinker with if someone wants to...flash the file in recovery or you can extract and push the files as well. There are (2) apps and a few lib files. I only tested this on my Tbolt running BAMF Forever, so beyond that I can't guarantee anything but "in theory" it should work on just about any android rom since it's dependencies are the lib files.
I would double check and make sure you don't have any of these libs already as overwriting them could cause issues, but likely they don't already exist.

If it doesn't and you know how to do a logcat, give me the output of the logcat file and I can see if additional dependencies are needed.
I had a lot of feedback on Rootzwiki and while many had it working, some on CM7 and a couple of other ROMs had FC issues.
I have a Nook Tablet now and I'm hoping we get root soon on it, I'd like to see how it does on the Nook.

Tried to install this using cwm on my cyano touchpad...got an Assert Failed getprop("ro.product.device") == "mecha" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "mecha" || getprop("ro.product.board") == "mecha" E:Error in /sdcard/dropbox/Amazon_Browser.zip(Status 7)
Going to try to do it manually.

You will need to use a different updater script for another device, or edit the existing to work on the device. You could likely just remove the getprop line from the script to get it to work.

Cm7 having FC issues here too. I guess I'll check Rootz to see if any progress has been made there.

Is this Thunderbolt specific or would this work with other phones, too?

You're not likely to get much help when you couldn't be bothered to type a complete sentence let alone an actual explanation of your issue. The people here are enormously helpful but they aren't mind readers.

Either flash CWM 5.5.0.0 (through ODIN) or if you go into meta inf and look for the updater script and open it with some notepad program and delete the first line and move the rest of the text up
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium

Agreed. Use the recommended recovery. You're trying to flash CM10...the same droidbasement site where you download the build will contain the recovery you should use. Odin that first, take a backup, wipe, then flash the latest build + GApps.
If that doesn't help you should do a little bit more reading before you get too brave Good luck!

How to update to JB using DLPKGFILE and KEEP ROOT! Works!

Right, so, through a bit of trial and error using guidance from the forums, this is how I updated to JB and kept root for WW after the update originally failed.
download BOTH files from here (massive thanks to ch3mn3y):
http://www25.zippyshare.com/v/91334594/file.html
http://www1.zippyshare.com/v/96461494/file.html
then extract the .zip file.
download the command file from here (massive thanks to krabappel2548):
http://www.mediafire.com/?yq1bt16mnm7tc8d
extract it.
place the dlpkgfile and command file, both unzipped onto your tab. Use a root explorer to paste the command file into /cache/recovery and the dlpkgfile (the actual file, not the folder) to /cache.
go to Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and temp unroot.
turn off the tab.
boot into recovery with Vol - and power, then when it says to press volume up to boot into RCK, do it.
You'll see the android with the blue wires and it will go through the install process if you have done it right. let it do its thing.
obviously, when it has settled, restore root with Voodoo.
If you get the android with red exclamation mark, i reccomend downloading the ICS zip of your current firmware and SKU and sticking it on a micro SD card, and letting it restore any programmes you've deleted.

Will your last line lose root on us, or will voodoo root keeper save it via that or does it wipe/reset the entire system?

When i ran ran the zip of .30 i did lose root, but it was easily restored using 1 click transformer root.

I tried it twice but it always failed at about 1/3 of the process... Hopefully I can reboot w/ any damage...
WHY!?? :'(
Btw here's the part of the log where it shows the failure in installation:

Btw the command file is just a file with content --update_package=/cache/dlpkgfile in it.

I think I found the problem: I remember I pushed jelly bean's music2.apk in system/app! Restored the original music app.
Gonna try update again!
Now it the turn of libGLESv1_CM.so ...

Going to give it a try.
Just to make sure, is this for WW version, right?

Already got this before my update notification stopped working.
I deleted Email app, returned it back to system but seems I dont have the right version. (found in someones dropbox posted here)
Also reflashed Ww. 30 hoping this would overwrite the widget with correct version. Obviously it did not...
Would be glad for any help.

As it is MY dlpkgfile it can need MY files. I could upload /system, but first its strange to copy/paste whole android and second it is 624mb and third it will work only for rooted and at least fourth i updated my pad.
If it helps my pad was reflashed to .30 using wolfs method cos i had screen issue.

Could you please try to upload just the EmailWidget?
When I tried using OTA I got an error on Email.apk first. Then I downloaded it from dropbox and it passed. But EmailWidget did unfortunately not.
Also trying to find a tool that could extract the .30blob file. I guess the apps should be there. Found something but probably Linux only so no go for me.

You guys made my day! I had the red triangle and couldn`t get the update anymore. Tried everything, nothing worked.
Now I just followed your guide, dl. your files and all went fine.
So sad I was ony able to hit the Tanks-button once. Thank you thousand times!

I only have it from JB. Unfortunately it seems the file was updated together with the system so it will most probably be useless.

[Q] Lenovo Stock Firmware won't setup with fail on assertion

Sorry for the links, but I'm new user, so I can't post outside links.
I'm trying to install firmware (download(.)lenovo(.)com/slates/think/tablet1/ThinkPadTablet_A310_03_0069_0121_ROW.zip) from lenovo firmware list (download(.)lenovo(.)com/slates/think/tablet1/) on my Thinkpad Tablet 16Gb 3G.
Firstly, when I just tried to use it as backup (CWM) it fails just saying "md5 mismatch". I think it was fully wrong way.
Then, I tried to install it from "install zip from sdcard" CWM command. It fails with this output:
-- Installing: /sdcard/update.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "Lenovo/ThinkPadTablet/Indigo:3.1/ThinkPadTablet_A310_02/0039_0089_ROW:user/release-keys" || file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "Lenovo/ThinkPadTablet/Indigo:4.0.3/ThinkPadTablet_A400_03/0069_0121_ROW:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then, I understand that in zip I downloaded there was no /system/build.prop. I found some version of this file, but for US and changed all occurences of US to ROW. That's what I've got: paste(.)ubuntu(.)com/1676846/. It concains this string:
ro.build.fingerprint=Lenovo/ThinkPadTablet/Indigo:3.1/ThinkPadTablet_A310_02/0039_0089_ROW:user/release-keys
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But now I get the same error as when there was no build.prop at all.
What have I to do?
Thank you, Dmitry.

Hi,
firmware updates should come OverTheAir, not by downloading something.
There is an option in Settings->About where you can check for updates.
Maybe this ROM doesn't match your tablet or current ROM (if it's just a partial update).
If you're absolutely sure that this ROM matches your current configuration (and ONLY then):
I think the problem isn't in the zip, but on your tablet.
The assertions are in the zip and check for the target system.
This should prevent you from accidentally installing the wrong ROM.
So check your tablet's /system/build.prop
If you force the update by editing your build.prop, you may brick it!!!
