Looking for a build.prop from a Asus phone so that I can download Asus Messaging from the market. Any help is appreciated!
Hi,
To download ASUS applications from Play Store, you need a few system permissions (find them here, use the asus.*.xml)
A build.prop can be easily obtained from any update ZIP from ASUS site, here.
Thanks!

Is it possible to edit the B&N "1.2 update" zip file to add an APK? My wife wants to add the Kindle app. That's all.
I'd hate to go through all the rooter/nooter/etc. just for one APK...
i tried to mess with the official 1.2 update zip and it wouldn't recognize it... not sure why or what it reads, but it didn't work for me...
Last time I heard, the stock Nook launcher wouldn't even display apps that weren't downloaded through the B&N marketplace; so I think this would involve more than just adding in a single APK anyway.
Here's a set of instructions to get apps to those that live in countries withnless than cooperative markets:
1. Download the app to bent sent from the market and install.
2. Using an app backup utility (like MyBackup Pro) to backup the file to it's raw .apk.
3. Upload that file to the web for hosting (I use my dropbox, since its free and all native on my tablet)
4. Share the link on here for all to enjoy!
I may have over-simplified the steps, but it gives you an idea how it's possible.
Another option is to point everyone in need to 4shared.com so they can search for the .apk directly for download. Hope this helps!

Hi All,
I have a rooted european TPT and I did something really dumb today: I nuked DownloadProvider.apk, thus killing any download functionality.
I downloaded the OTA update roms and had a look in there but they only have patches for the APK and not the file itself. I have been unable to find a full ROM image to use either, one linked from here was on Megaupload so that's gone.
May I beg someone to send me this APK please or point me to where I can find an image of the original ROM? Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi
I have the same problem. Deleted the downloadprovider and I guess also the downloadprovider.UI.
I'm on 2.3.4 root. Build nr: 4.0.2.A.0.42.
What to do with the other file in the zip apart from the .apk and how to set the permissions when moving the .apk to the system/app folder?
thanks

The other file is the odex just copy it in /system/app like the apk. The files need the permission 644. You can set them i.e. with Terminal Emualtor or with adb:
Code:
su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 644 /system/app/DownloadProvider.*
Unfortunately I did the same mistake like baz8080 .
Can you please help me with DownloadProvider for A310_02_0039_0089_WE?
I still have the apk and restored it to /system/app but the odex is missing and I'm still not able to download anything
Thanks in advance
Anybody?
I found DownloadProvider.apk + odex from 0076_WE
Is there any way to apply the patches from the update (0086_WE and 0089_WE) manually just on these two files?
Edit:
Solved it!

Things To Do
You must have root access to your phone
1. copy and paste "Download Provider ui" folder to /system/apps of your root folder.
2. copy and paste "Download Provider" folder to /system/priv-app of your root folder.
3. give permission like other apps in the folder and install both apk inside each folder with your root explorer with root installer package i used "fx file explorer pro".
4. Done restart your mobile.
5. you need to have google play store updated and google play services updated to latest version
I did not create this as I found it for the Epic 4G. It was previously posted by jamesey in that forum. Here is a link to that thread:

I have been searching for a security bypass that would work for ICS since I got my A500. I wanted to be able to either use facelock or no lockscreen at all on my tablet. I also do not like my sys admin having complete remote wipe authority on my device much less having to have my entire device encrypted. These files bypassed all that.
I have tested this for the Tegraowner 4.04 ICS rom v160 and works thus far.
To install, unzip the attached file, and, using whatever .zip editor you have, open the ROM you are intending to install, go to the \system\app\ folder, and replace the Email.apk and Exchange.apk files therein with those from the attached file.
then . . . Flash that ROM in the normal sequence. (PS I used total commander on the tablet to make the edit to the ROM file, 7zip would not make changes to that particular ROM's zip file.)
Alternatively, you can do this without reflashing the ROM but it does not always seem to work perfectly. To do this, delete your exchange email account. Clear app cache for exchange. Make sure no device admins are seen in the system settings/security tab, then use root explorer (must fix file permissions using root explorer) or adb to add the files to \system\app\ folder. Then reboot and add the account.
Note, it will still ask you about the security imposed by exchange but not actually implement those security requirements. eg on my tablet, it indicated that my exchange had security requirements but did not say anything further and did not add the exchange server as a device admin in the system settings/security tab.
Lovin it. (goodbye touchdown email)

Replacing the stock apks via Root Explorer worked on my Transformer TF-101 with codename android on it. It froze, rebooted, and was fine, with security bypassed.

top that work on my ICS 4.0.4 HTC Desire :good:
Thank you!
This worked on Desire with sandvold ICS 0.15.0.1
Did not work on my Galaxy S3. I keep getting FCs for email and overall stability is degraded. Looking at the other threads for this, it may be because the stock rom is odexed? I may just pay $5 for an OWA viewer until someone can fix this for the S3.
Works perfect and is so much better than the stock Email app. I would really appreciate if you add a couple of features to this already awesome apk.
1. There is no option to set 'Out of Office Settings' from my phone while using this app.
2. Also, each time a mailer with pictures comes, I need to save settings for individual sender for automatic-picture-download-permissions.
If these two things can be added, it would be the best Email patch available. Thanks
Anyone tested it with cm10? Thank you!

Ok, i rebooted, and now i have two email apps in the drawer, one yellow and white icon and the other red and white. If i select the yellow and white icon, it says email has stopped. IF I use the red and white, i can setup email fine but security is still there. My guess is the i did something wrong while installed the new mail.apk

Can someone please temporarily host it elsewhere?

I just tried the original download link and it seems to be working fine. Are you still not able to download the file?
