no android market on my HTC

Hi everyone,
I bought my HTC Hero in Moscow and it came without the android market. How can I resolve that??
Thanks in advance.

guess this is already solved in these forums, search for market enabler
use the forum search in future

Thanks for the info, but I think you did not get it right. The phone does not have at all the market application. The market enabler as I understand enables somehow the connection. I dont have the application itself to even start it.

We are in the same boat. It appears that certain HTC Hero in certain countries don't have Market app (afaik Malaysia, Vietnam). Market is replaced by SlideME's SAM.
I'm from Malaysia, own the phone and I can confirm there is no Market in Malaysian Hero.

hmm, then i suggest you to try to install for example the original htc rom or a custom rom like modaco.. if you want to have it "original" i would recommend the original "clear" htc rom..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622
edit: i think the problem is, that the market is bound to your country/region.. i dont know what happens if you install an wwe htc rom on your phone, but you should give it a try ;-)

Kyrillos,
You can enable SAM by looking for it's installer at the right page of you center scene Else, look for SAM in your bookmarks.
Is it possible to have Android Market by downloading it's apk? Or is the Market embedded to the phone which subsequently make it impossible to have Market in the 'less fortunate' Hero?
felikz,
I tried, but the update failed with this error:

I guess the only way is to root the phone and flash it with another ROM. I have two years warranty and the distributor in my country said if I mod the software of the phone, it'll void the warranty :-(
It's either make or break for me.

Bro Geochelone, I oso bot the HERO 3 days ago and were quite sad that Malaysia's version doesn't come with Android Mkt. I think we missed out a lot.
Tried Slide Me, not much application I think as compare to Apps Store...
Did you enjoy the phone?

asdf8888, I flashed my ROM with the latest WWE update, now I have Market
Market > SAM.

hey bro can teach me or guide me how to do that? totally new to android phone so hope you can bear with me
thanks in advance

asdf8888,
You can start here. In the article, they specifically suggest to use Linda File Manager, which is not available from SAM. Fortunately, you can use OI File manager.
There's also an update for flashrec, available here.
To load the WWE ROM, you can follow this. Instead of MoDaCo, replace it with official ROM which is available here. Pick the generic one
If you are not sure, ask. I'm more than happy to help

Dear Geochelone, sorry to disturb during the holiday period. But i still cannot accomplish what u have tot me.
1. I have install the OI File Manager
2. i have updated with flashrec, as instructed
3. I copy the WWE ROM into my SD card, i try to restart it by pressing (MENU + ON) button together; and everytime i do that, it hang and i need to remove the battery and try it again.
which steps did i go wrong...
please help... the helpless

sorry bro to disturb u during thius holiday period. I try by doing the following;
1. I downloaded the OI File Manager into the phone;
2. Updated the flashrec
3. Copied tthe WWE ROM into the SD card, and then try to on the phone by pressing the ON + MENU button together. Each time i do that, the phone will hang and i need to remove the battery and retry it.
what have i done wrong....
pls help bro, really wanted to give up oredi...

sorry to bother u again...
which ROM u are using, i have try i think all of them and the message is the same as your in your previous post date 18 sept.
i have downloaded the OI File Manager and oso updated the flashrec....
still cannot.
really sad unable the enjoy the devise...
pls guide me... thanks

Sorry I missed the this particular thread completely :-(
OK. I specifically picked this.
You missed the most important step Flashing the recovery image.
1. Install OI File Manager.
2. Put the flashrec into your sdcard.
3. Put this ROM into you sdcard. You may want to rename it to update.zip before you transfer it to sdcard.
4. Put this recovery image into your sdcard.
5. With the file manager, browse your sdcard and install flashrec.
6. If you haven't done it, rename update-hero-generic-2.73.405.5-rooted-signed.zip to update.zip with the file manager.
7. Open flashrec, click backup (the last button of the program). Wait.
8. At the box, type sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img, then click the button just below the box. Wait.
9. Now you flashed your Hero with recovery image. Turn off your Hero.
10. Hold POWER and HOME simultaneously. You will enter Android system recovery.
11. Choose Wipe data/factory reset. I ASSUME YOU ALREADY MADE YOUR BACKUP. Else, choose Reboot system now and do your backup.
12. After wipe, choose Apply sdcard:update.zip. Wait.
13. Choose Reboot system now.
14. Smile as your Hero is rooted. Watch it boots and gives you the Market

bro thanks a lot, finally I got my Market, and now starting to enjoy the phone.
You are simply the best.... really thanks a lot, even the person who sold me the phone was not able to help me.
cheers, happy holiday

I'm happy for you
BTW, where you from sir?

Kuala Lumpur, yourself?

[PROGRAM] Updated:One Click Root/UnRoot (Mac and PC)

Team,
This One-Click Root process will copy over the rooted-update.zip or unroot-update.zip file then reboot your phone. Follow the instructions in the CMD prompt that launches.​
Credits:
LeshaK at Samdroid: for the original rooted-update.zip.
gunnarhafdal : for creating the Mac GUI for my app.​
This has been tested on stock Android 2.1 Eclair only. If you rooted using another process you can use this process to unroot as long as you didnt load a rom that created links to busybox.
For the following models:
GT-I9000
Captivate SHG-I897
Vibrant SGH-959
GT-I9000M
Epic SPH-D700 (Untested but should work like other phones. Post with your results. This is harmless it will either work or it wont. It copies over 3 files to your existing build.)​
Rooting adds the following to your system and unrooting removes them:
/system/xbin/busybox (version 1.17.1)
/system/xbin/su
/system/app/Superuser.apk (version 2.3.1)
and links /system/bin/su to /system/xbin/su​
More will follow as they are released. PM me to add your Galaxy S Model.
Warning: I am not responsible for bricked phones, rooting can void your warranty....

Great app! I am on a Mac and rooted already so I don't need it but this should help about 90% of all new users.
Thank you.

+1 for the program. I rooted it last Sunday, and am too on a Mac, but this should def make the process alot easier for people.

This should go up as a sticky.

One question since this seems to be a major topic as well, any way you could have it load a generic settings.db file or one click exit to the existing one for non-market apps?
That seems to be giving some people a bit of a headache.

It's edited to enable non-market apps

This is awesome, I have been waiting for this!
I am having a problem though, I have gotten to the "press the One Root Button" step. The green shell screen says it can't load the update onto my sd card, so when I re-install packages, it can't find the zip file. It does reboot the phone though and it is set on debug, is there a step I missed? I do have another 8g speed6 sd card I put in the empty slot, could that be messing it up?

Well sounds like your drivers maybe not set up right. go to start then run and open up prompt by typing cmd and see if "adb devices" runs and sees your device.

Ah, I just did it manually. Easy. Thanks for the motivation though.

Awesome work. I'll probably wait for the updated version with the "Unroot" option, but very cool nonetheless!

Here is my settings.db file. Some have speculated that it varies some from phone to phone so may need some testing.
It has been edited to enable non-market apps.

reminder to anyone using someone elses settings.db:
Make note of the android_id in your settings.db before swapping. You'll need it!

I think I am going to leave deploying settings.DB alone.

[MOD] Custom Boot Screen (for Gingerbread ROM's)

Well I had been getting asked a lot lately about the GB ROM's and my original boot screen packages that I had created where I modified a param.lfs to contain no boot image and allowed a script to place whatever image you wanted in it's place for a custom boot logo. In the past I had edited the param.lfs for the AT&T i897 bootloaders which does not work with the GB boot loaders.
This is not the boot animation, nor the kernel logo, but the first logo your phone displays when it's turned on.
Anyhow, I re-wrote the param.lfs to allow a blank for the logo.jpg that Gingerbread calls upon in the bootloader and it works great. So for all of you that used my boot screen package in the past for i897, i9000 and t959 2.1, 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROM's, here it is again for 2.3+ ROM's.
This should also work fine for Vibrant but I will check in case any T959 people are scoping this out.
These will not be compatible with CM7 (due to the proprietary fs used on param.lfs)...
Big thanks to TRusselo for being a BETA tester, tossing in the latest ODIN package and writing the readme as well as contributing the JPEG's offered in the package. I decided to keep the Canadian boot screens for you northern neighbors on the Roger's network up there...
Donations are always welcome but not required, press THANKS, follow me on Twitter or like my cause on FaceBook.

Done, soft-bricked (Odin failed) but got back into DL mode and re-flashed. I've got the i896 logo up there now.
Thanks a lot!

yeah odin sometimes does that... the newer odin does that LESS.. lol.
i soft bricked a few times using this.
just keep forcing the params until it passes, no need to go back to stock!
with GB button combos, and the soft brick, i found:
Vol Down + USB = Download mode
Vol Down + Pwr = Soft brick screen.
hope that helps.

Just an fyi to anyone not familiar with it, but you will have to make sure you have your screen active when running the batch file so that you can click Allow to the superuser permission request when it attempts to mount the partition.
This wasn't noted in the readme, someone without much experience might miss it.

Just a question but why are there some screens with "AM HUNG" as the name and not Samsung?

When you soft bricked and reflashed did you have to do the whole rom or just this process in particular?

However, your program just tells me that adb is not recognized as a command. at the end it does say enjoy your new bootscreen and it gives me a screwed up bootscreen. Yes the file is only 96kb and yes I named it correctly. and yes I have usb debugging on and no the phone isn't mounted. I am using mosaic 1. Any ideas?

OK I restarted the comp and made sure their were no adb processes running and still your tool does not work it says killing all adb processes and then says adb is not recognized as an internal command. I know adb works because I used cmd:adb devices and it showed my phone. So what is the deal with this program? I am on 7 but I used run as administrator so it should work.

[Q] Need Unlocking Help -Rooting with a Mac/Online Codes Not Working

Yes, I searched. I have a GS2 Locked to Virgin Mobile in Canada.
First off, I have a mac, so the whole rooting/unlocking thing seems to be impossible as ODIN and the other programs are all .exe's.
I tried buying a code online and they said they couldn't unlock it and most others sites don't like the phone as compatible.
What are my options here?
Thanks all.

Borrow a real computer.

to root use this to flash the correct kernel from here
to unlock
I have used Heimdall and it works

I'm struggling here. heimdall doesn't read .tar. I extract the tar and I just get an zimage and nothing more.
It seemed simpler on Odin, but I'm lost on this.

Take tar or the zimage and put it in the kernel slot and hit flash, it's less picky about the file type.

I appreciate the help, but it's not that simple. It says firmware.xml is missing when I put it under the load package tab under firmware.
When I put it under the flash tab, it says not a valid PIT type. These are the only two places I can select a file.

could you verify that you have managed to flash with latest version of Heimdall? i have tried everything with beta2, 1.3 and it simply refused to work. i just used a pc to update to latest version, and i have no files to flash to test (it's been one day and if something happens i have to reintsall everything again), so if you could verify this, or teach me a trick or two to get it to work, it will be much appreciated

FWIW, I loaded 1.1 and it was not compatible. 1.2 looked the same as 1.3 for me.

SGS2 has only been supported from version 1.2 onwards, maybe try the newest 1.3 that's just been released.
I have never used it apart from on windows, it looks like you may need to give it a pit before it will do anything.
You should be able to find it in an official rom, when I get home in 4-5 hours ill have a look at it.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App

The screen looks like the ones I posted on 1.3.

Then you will need a pit from a stock rom, might try reading the faq
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App

HOWTO: flashing via Heimdall Suite 1.3.0
1) put your phone into download mode
2) connect to pc
3) load Heimdall GUI
4) click Utility tab
5) click detect device (if it detected goto 6, if not install drivers which should come with Heimdall)
6) click save as under "download pit", save it somewhere easy to find with a name like SGS2 (no need to add .pit)
7) hit download
8) phone will reboot, put back into download mode
9) click "flash" tab
10) click "browse" near the top and select your pit you saved earlier
11) on the righthand side there is a window saying "Partitions(files)" click "add" below it
12) select "kernel" on the lefthand side below "partition details"
13) click Browse below "partition details", select the kernel you want
It should now look like the attached pic
If it does, hit Start, and it should flash

i think problem with mac is still there :
although i have yet to try flash a ROM or parts of it, to see if it could successfully flash it.
EDIT: nope, it does not work , still the same error

Same issue here.
6) click save as under "download pit", save it somewhere easy to find with a name like SGS2 (no need to add .pit)

1). Well Friends will try to analyze here the procedure followed to make "root" the mobile without the Chinese "Root Explorer" and with all the rest to function properly after the procedure the "Root".
2). Now you must download the "boot image" from here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HA9FSEKL and then
let's desktop Pc.
3). Basic: Before you start anything you have to BE CAREFUL, if you have not already deleted the file "dload" from the sd card!
5). It would ultimately be taken out and the sd (as I did) Did the end of the process when boot read anything and
the Chinese"root explorer" fly again ... so for sure.
================================================== ========== =============================
Follow the letter the instructions below:
1. Boot the phone into the pink screen mode (volup + voldown + power) and connect it to the PC via usb cable.
2. Your PC will find a new device. Open it, and then open folder called "image" in it.
3. Copy stock boot.img to your PC, you'll need it later.
4. Now copy my boot.img from PC to the device, replacing stock boot.img
5. Use your operating system tools to safely remove the device, then pull out the battery to get out from pink screen mode. Boot the phone.
6. While booting, the phone gets rooted. When it boots up, you can turn it off and get to the pink screen again.
7. Restore stock boot.img you saved earlier.
8. Boot the phone again - it is rooted and working properly now
================================================== ========== ===============================
Before reinsert the sd it would with a cardreader to put in Pc and delete folders: android_secure,, Android.
And so the bags otherwise they'll rebuild automatically once you put the sd.
If you do everything correctly you will have 2.3.5 rooted, without Chinese"root explorer" and the witget weather-clock its ok.
Please also stated that I have not started again after the root "Root Explorer" from the Market ONLY use another program.(optional)

the fixed "boot.img" download: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HA9FSEKL
It doesn't install root explorer, and it doesnt delete cust.img, but still should give you root access. To have the clock widget just put cust.img I've uploaded earlier into image folder from pink screen mode
Hey guys! I won't fix my boot.img.
It will work that way
you put my boot.img into image folder via pink screen,
boot phone once,
then boot into pink screen again,
restore stock boot.img and that's all
the phone is rooted and no overhead at start because of those modified boot.img's.

2.6.35.7
I've extracted the config from the kernel and uploaded here: http://pastebin.com/SspBFBwF
kernel boot.img: http://www.mediafire.com/?c5i4i1j1p163w8a
(only difference from stock is I've unsecured it)

I assume that the Overseas version shouldn't delay so much.
What do you think?

so we can just install chinese and then somehow navigate to settings menu and choose english?

can we have a screenshot please?

Anyway I believe that it is not serious that huawei doesn´t release the chinese and overseas versions at the same time.

Well this is interesting.. the system image has the wifi driver for the regular U8800 in it.

system dump for those that want it: http://www.multiupload.com/1AG300FSXD
DEV ONLY. It's not in CWR flashable format.

Also the kernel boots with your MIUI port. A few issues like rather broken screen rotation but that'll be a simple fix.
Roll on the release of the source.

I was gonna say that the kconfig looked like it had support for the regular u8800.
How did you split the kernel from the update btw?

double post..
