Hello Master Turbo
I cannot post in your thread because my account is new (I just set it up to report the bugs) maybe Mods can please move it to Master Turbo MIAU v 6 thread. Thank you.
Bug report
- Chrome browser crashes when selecting the URL address from URL bar (press and hold)
- Manual network selection results in error (upon clicking on network carrier)
- Autolaunch does not work upon reboot (manual re-launch of apps is necessary for apps to receive notifications upon reboot) - doing steps 1 to 5 from Forbes article and once phone is rebooted the auto-launch-enabled apps are not auto launched, they need to be re-launched manually
- Granting Notification access to 3rd party Launchers breaks the ROM and results in infinite boot
- Apps purchased in Playstore in previous ROMs do not show up as purchased in Playstore in MIAU and require repeat purchase

Vitto..... thank you very much for your report...... i dont experience any of that, but try the new release and make sure after you install the rom (before you reboot), wipe all partitions, but system..... be aware that this will delete all sdcard contents...... MIUI os is very picky and doesn't like anything that changes their configuration....... it's the nature of the beast.....

How to get all apps on the market.

Since there are several post discussing this I have opened this thread instead answering the same on all of them.
To get all apps (at least all I have looked for ) you only have to follow the steps described.
1. Go to Manage Applications (in settings/applications)
2. Press the running tab and select market (if market is not running execute it)
3. Select Market from running apps. And:
Press Clear Cache
Press Force Stop
4. Go back and Select Google Services Framework. And:
Press Clear Data (answer ok on the message warning)
Press Force Stop
5. Try to run Market. You will get an error message.
6. Reboot the device and run market twice (the first one you will get the error message again).
Here you have a video performing this steps on a wits device:
Nice one, it works a treat I spent hours changing the market package trying to get it to work. I will add it to my market, small taskbar thread (many thanks to you of course)
Peace.

How To See All APPS on the Market

I found this on Notioninkhacks.com to get your Android Market to show all the Apps! it worked for me
Original Source: http://notioninkhacks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=459&start=35
Settings -- Applications -- Manage Applications
Choose All
Choose Market
Force Stop
Back out, choose Google Service Framework
Force Stop
Clear Data
Back out to the homescreen, run the Market (it should fail - that's what we want)
Reboot
Wait at least one minute after the system boots up, then retry the Market.
Just Loving my Adam Even more each day
This worked great for me. Got google maps. Thanks
Sent from my Adam using XDA App
Has anyone verified if the Adam has a valid device fingerprint in the build.prop?
Some GTablet users still don't consider this the full market fix as there were still occasionally apps missing due to fingerprint issues in the build.prop file. This "Full Market" thread contains some details on the fix.
PS. The steps you posted are basically the same set of steps I mentioned on January 24th in your Installing the Market?? thread. I can't take any credit for them anyway though as I originally learned about them from XDA when I had my gtab.
Hi,
How do you choose Google Service Framework? Please help.

Must choose the tab with "All" services on top. then you'll be able to see Google Service Framework.
This method was working at first, now it's giving mix results.

Google Map Free voice Navigation for non supported country

Google Map Free voice Navigation in non supported country
Must Read before install
This is same as you having stock google map application, but here in this application there won't have restriction to use navigation in certain country. (Thanx to Ownhere n Brut All)
How to Install :
First I am showing you some basic things, read it carefully to avoid installation failure
There is three types of files for installation, you have to Install any of One only,
What is difference between three?
Nothing, all are installing same application, but the method of installation is different.
Tyes :
1. No installation need
2. resigned
3. changepnp
First two types requires ROOT,
Why root is needed ?
First two types of files actually replacing stock google map, stock map is a system application, here Root is needed to uninstall stock application. System application cant be uninstall without Root
While third type don’t reuires Root
Why so? B’coz third application not replacing your stock map, when you install third type, after installation you will get double icon each for latitude, Map, place and navigation. When you have to use it for navigation to restricted country, you have to use newer application, stock application still works as it is.
Now Exact instruction for installation.
For Type 1 .
You need Root,
- Uninstall map with system appl remover or titanium backup (or whatever support syst app removal). Before un installation you need to remove cache n clear data .(setting – application – all – Map – clear cache n data)
- Uninstall street view if you have installed
- Now use root explorer, n copy file maps.apk (download type1 n rename maps.apk) and place into system/app directory
- Change permission rw r r
- Restart device
You can see map installed to your device, now you can install street view from market
For Type 2 :
You need Root,
- Uninstall map with system appl remover or titanium backup (or whatever support syst app removal). Before un installation you need to remove cache n clear data .(setting – application – all – Map – clear cache n data)
- Uninstall street view if you have installed
- Now you can install map.resigned.apk as routine way you install other applications.
If you get error application not install, then install it from market, repeat all steps mentioned above. Many time it may need to clear cache 1-2 time
For type 3 :
Easiest, nothing technique requires, just install map.changepnp.apk as routine application and you are ready to Navigate..
For Type 4
Copy file to SD card, and flash with CWM, Dont use stock recovery. as well must be on safe kernel
Note : In case of type 1 n 2, you will still gets update from market when newer version released, If you update it, World navigation. will be lost.
This Navigations requires active data connection.Yes U can pre cache map area with wifi before travelling to reduce data consumption but still it need data connection.
Download :
Type 1 - Map 6.14.1 - Mirror - Mirror2
Type 2 - Map 6.14.1 - Mirror - Mirror2
Type 3 - Map 6.5.0
Type 4 : 6.14.1 Flashable zip - flash with recovery(must be on safe kernel) - Mirror - Mirror2 - Mirror 3
Combo Download
Type 1-4 (version as above)
I am planning a trip to india soon. This would be helpful
Didn't Worked for. i followed step 3 coz i havnt Rooted my phone. After installation of 3rd file i opened Google Navigation. it says as usual "Google Maps Navigation not yet available in this location" .
You might seen other 4 short cut, lattitude, maps, navigation n place. You may have selected older one, click new installed navigation, both looks similiar

[Q] what to do after rooting alcatel pop C3

hey i want to root my alcatel 4033 because of the 512mb of memory, most of it is used up by preinstalled apps but i dont know what to do after rooting it. Can any one help me? i can help my self when it comes to technology and i can follow instuctions
Hi there, i have the same Phone. Got it rooted with the framaroot app. Then i searched the web for custom roms. First Nothing Then i came a cross this site http://www.442kitkat.info/mp3-0/alcatel-one-touch-pop-c3-5687.html. seems interessting? ! I will try to flash it and See how it works out
---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------
I got the A version (4033a) i guess. Without dual sim
Bull****. Got to complete a task/buy something. Forget about this link.
Hi, U can remove useless apps using root explorer or root app delete.. Or search for any other custom rom built for ur fone.
Without custom roms, usually this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401 . With the different modules available for everything from ad blocking to theming to customizing the lockscreen, this is about as custom as you can go without a rom.
I have an app

Hello ackeella27, I have an Alcatel POP C3 4033X and I had the same problem: preinstalled apps and some ram used by these (for example Viber, that sometimes used to crash even if I didn't open it). So i had decided to root my phone and remove these useless (for me) apps by deleting them from the system (they are in a folder called "/custpack/app/" in the case of 4033X but i don't know if it is the same for other model of POP C3).
But I use to reset my phone sometimes (with the decision to not install again too much apps xD ) so made an app, called "App Removal for Alcatel POP C3"
I think if you have 4033X model you can surely use it, if not but you decide even to try please tell me the result so I know that this app is also for another model of POP C3.
You can find the app atached the post; I've put an ads at the bottom because I'm planning to put it on Play Store
In the app, if you haven't already rooted your phone you can click "Get SU" button, and installation of Framaroot will be started: when it finishes open Framaroot and click Boromir. Restart the phone. You can open App Removal, and may modify the code, and then click "execute" button to remove the unnecessary apps.
I posted some sceenshot to show you how is the app
Description of used permissions:
1) SD Card
2) Network State and Internet
3) Superuser
1)To put Framaroot in the SD Card and start the installation process
2)To display Ads
3)To execute the root commands
I hope it works and is usefull
Have a nice day

Edit: The app is now obsolete: wait about one week and I will make a topic with the new app (better than this). Bye

Q did u als had this annoying message when u disable viber. Viber has stopped. Keeps popping up
Yes, so I reset my phone and delete it from the system. I think this phone's version of viber is bugged because if I install it from Play Store it function normally. If you would remove it feel free to use my app (it not remove only viber but also other programs, in future I update if with a cecklist of Alcatel system apps you can check to be removed, more comfortable)

Disable OTA - Keep SDCard Write Access and Use a Different Launcher *READ BEFORE BOOT

Since root has been obtained and an alternative launcher can be installed, as has been mentioned there is really no need to stay on 5.0.0 anymore. I would recommend updating to 5.0.1. However, this procedure can still be applied to 5.0.1 and hopefully it'll prevent any future updates. (As of writing it 5.0.1 is the latest).
The steps are basically as follows:
Enable ADB by going to Settings> Device Options. Keep tapping on the Serial Number field until the Developer options field appears.
Under Developer options Enable ADB
Hook the Fire up to your computer and do the following commands:
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.otaverifier
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.device.software.ota
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.settings.systemupdates
I don't know which of three is the magic one, But you can not longer go to device options > system update. It also never appears to pull down the update in the background.
Rivethread23 - good work and many thanks for this
I know that you have the original Fire 7 with no system update but I wanted to see if any of your commands will work on 5.01. My device is on 5.01 has been in aeroplane mode since purchase, I have been using OTG Ethernet for connectivity and I have not signed into Amazon. Google Play is installed - basically a standalone device on 5.01 with no association with Amazon.
After running the commands and the ADB shell gave a [True State] after each command. Rebooted the device:
System Updates now gives the following error message: [The requested action is not permitted. Check Parental controls settings and try again]. As my device is not associated with Amazon parental controls have not been configured - so I browsed to a few proxy sites and such to confirm no filtering on web browsing etc
I've tried various launchers from Play store and every time the default Fire Launcher kicks back in again.
SD Card issue is still there.
When you tried the System Update button did you get the same error message as me? If so, I wonder if the Adb Shell command to disable OTA works on 5.01 as well?
Update 1: [adb shell pm hide com.amazon.firelauncher] disables the default Amazon launcher. I picked another launcher at random from Google Play. Halo installed and it worked with the default launcher hidden, however using the minimise middle button on the device forces the Parental Control Popup to appear.
So it is possible to hide the default launcher on 5.01 using ADB but it is causing issues. We need a better work around.
Unfortunately this only blocks the update from occurring. I ran into another issue on the 5.0.0 tablet in that I can't get Google play store working. It just says cannot connect. So I don't know if one of the above things broke it. It was getting late so I went to bed. I'll keep plugging at it and see what I can do.
I might finally take both of mine out of the box today, can more people confirm this is working? @Rivethread23, did you get the play store sorted out?
Couldn't wait, dove in. On an out-of-box Fire, running 5.0.0, these do in-fact keep the OTA updates from firing. I have been online, installing apps and customizing the tablet for over an hour with many reboots, no prompts or attempts of an update.
With this, and ads disabled, and the play store turned on we have a usable tablet!
F-Droid works as well, just sideload their APK to get access to lots of software:
https://f-droid.org/repo/org.fdroid.fdroid_96150.apk
Still stuck on Play Store in 5.0.0 *not working* for now.....same problem as OP
I can confirm that the Google Play Services, Login Services, and Framework are (at least partly) working, even though the Play Store is not. I sideloaded Gmail, and it automatically had my info, and downloaded my email.
Wait, I'm confused. In 1 post you say play store is on and working, then you're saying it's not...
Aside from the play store, it sounds like everything else is working fine! Is that correct. I'm asking because I'm thinking about buying a 2nd one of these, only if I can have it working 100% the way I have it now with my tablet, just with the ability to use a different launcher.
With the original 5.0.0 firmware, if you prevented the OTA update to 5.0.1:
+Can change launcher
+Can write to SD from apps
-Can't get Play Store to work (so far, but can manually side-load GApps (Gmail, Hangouts, etc))
In the other thread, people that have gone to 5.0.1:
-Locked to amazon Launcher when using HOME button
-Manual SD writing is disabled
+Google Play Store can be installed and 90% of the GApps work
--------
The key to take away is that if you get another one, and you do the fix in this thread to prevent OTA updates, you can simply wait til everyone gets things fixed and figured out. You can safely use it and not worry about getting pushed to a firmware that might be even more locked down.
On the other hand, if you're not worried about OTA updates breaking stuff, and want a working store, go to 5.0.1 and follow SD_Shadow's instructions in his thread on that subject.
Hopefully root comes soon and we can fix all these problems properly, but until then it's kinda hit and miss depending on what version you got.
Hope that helps.
Thanks Tufkal was going to post something along those lines but you beat me to it.
Essentially you can prevent updates from further locking down the tablet. Who knows what future updates bring? I'll wait and update as thing warrant.
I have two one on 5.0.0 and another on 5.0.1. While I like being able to use the launcher of my choosing on 5.0.0, the working google store and updated amazon store and apps have me using the 5.0.1 one. I am keeping the other on 5.0.0 until development starts then I'll try my hand at making a ROM.
Your device that is on 5.0.0 Firmware have you signed into Amazon and associated your device? Or is it standalone like mine?
Was on Amazon for a day. Factory reset it and am using it sans Amazon. Mostly using the 5.0.1 one myself.
Yep same here. 5.01 with no amazon sign in.
I've been playing around with the launcher again. Tried changing the hardcoded buttons and also with ADB Shell am force-stop pm disable on com.amazon.firelauncher to stop dependent services, ie hard buttons. All to no avail.
root definitely needed for this
I figured out a way to access some hidden functions within the OS last night. Seeing where this leads after work today Apparently I can cast the screen and access the home function disabled in 5.0.1. Problem is the home function doesn't override the hard coding.
Most interesting is something called Prod and Devo Switch that give "Access Denied" when I try to activate it. Hmmmm........
Here's what I have discovered. It's easier done on 5.0.0 but can be done on 5.0.1. You'll need another launcher like Nova installed. Installed "Anycut" from the google store. It'll let you put a shortcut on the desktop for any "activity". There are alot of items there not normally accessible. You can cast to a Chromcast for example (it works). The reason you need another launcher is the Amazon launcher doesn't support shortcuts I guess as they don't appear. They appear on Nova's desktop when created.
Most interesting is a shortcut called "Prod and Devo Switch" which if you look at the info refers to the "Amazon Device Settings" app.. ( com.amazon.device.settings?). It's separate from the user settings. If you try to access it it will say "Access Denied" on 5.0.1. Or "Permission denied" on 5.0.0. Makes me wonder if what needs to happen the app needs some additional permissions to be run. I was looking through the list of permissions via ADB and there are a number of permission groups that are android.xxxxx. However there are only a few permission groups that are amazon.xxxxx one of which is amazon.permission-group.settings. Listing the settings in the group shows a large list. Maybe using ADB pm grant com.amazon.device.settings the correct permissions could unlock this? Thoughts?
Here's what I got from a logcat when I click on the shortcut in novalauncher:
I/ActivityManager( 454): START u0 {act=android.intent.action.VIEW flg=0x1000000

her has not requested permission com.amazon.dcp.permission.DISPLAY_DEBUG_UI
Maybe someone with more knowledge than I create a program with that permission that calls the intent in question?
Again good work on this
I picked up another new device yesterday morning. OTA updates disabled, Fire OS 5.0, no association to Amazon and connectivity via WiFi. Just like you I got Gmail, YouTube and other Google associated apps to work with the exception of the Play store. It finally let me sign in but comes up every time with the [Connection Retry] error.
I followed your instructions and installed AnyCut - and I have been playing around as I thought it might be possible by using shortcuts to load my Google account onto the device.
Shortcut [Add an account] - and the "Couldn't sign in - google server error" came back so not working for now.
Shortcut [Testing] - allows us to pull up more info on the Fire 7 with the 4 below options
Tablet Information - not working
Battery Information - working
Usage Statistics - working
WiFi Information - working
Shortcut [IP Settings] - gives us advanced WiFi options
A lot of the options try to load or there is a visible presence of starting to load and you can clearly see the device stopping them from loading. Basically we are trying to load Android Apps that are locked down by Fire OS which sits on top of Android.
Other apps with Permission Denied
[Log Manager]
[Crash Manager]
[Metrics Debug UI]
Looks like Amazon do not want us to have access to their inbuilt log files on their device
As I do not have access to Google store I have been using F-Droid for my apps. I have installed APK Extractor and it lists all the current APK's on the Fire 7. What is interesting about this is that there are APK's that where not findable using [AnyCut] but show up in APK Extractor.
Will update more in a bit
Here's an interesting note..... I'm on 5.0.0 and trying to get the Play Store working (I believe that 5.0.0 w/ Play Store is a better avenue to attack than trying to fix the launcher in 5.0.1)
For testing reasons I'm on an older version of the Play Store where the search icon is visible.
On the play store screen where it says no connection with the retry button, I hit the search icon and start typing "clas" It autofilled in clash of clans. Then i did "hang" and I see hangouts dialer. The play store app is communicating it would seem.....

On the play store screen where it says no connection with the retry button, I hit the search icon and start typing "clas" It autofilled in clash of clans. Then i did "hang" and I see hangouts dialer. The play store app is communicating it would seem.....

I'm trying all kinds, the one i was using for that test I got here:

I'm with you I tried some work arounds on the 5.0.1 tablet but if we can get the play store working on 5.0.0 it seems to offer more opportunities.
Yep same here - it makes more sense to get Play store to work.
I think I might know what the issue is causing and I believe it is down to the Google Service Framework (GSF) on 5.0 not installing correctly and causing the sync issue when trying to connect. I installed [Device ID] app on 5.0 and there is no serial listed for GSF at all - on my 5.1 tablet GSF would load up on the screen and you could view settings but on 5.0 it does not.
When trying to open the Google Play some I found the following error in Logcat [.onClick: b/5160617: Reinitialize account] this relates to the GSF serial not being present. Logs also show permissions and api errors as well. The only
Looking into a GSF workaround if possible. It might be on the wrong track but I am going to see what else I can find out.
I thought I had found a back door into Google signin. Using an App calling [Applications Info] which I used to pull up the GoogleServiceFframework apk. From there I started to play around with the launch options for the applicable services.
Selecting launch on [Legal Services] takes you to Google Sign In - keyboard was not working for this so I had to adb shell input text of my gmail & password. Unfortunately the same old Google error was appearing even after I cleared the cache and re-installed Gapps.
The last screengrab shows that the System Updates on installed Google Service Framework is corrupt and not working properly. I have also launched other Gapps dependent activities from the services in [App Info] and again they either fail to load of abundance of errors. So installation issues for all of the Gapps in one way or another on Fire 5.0
Obviously there is a difference between the 5.0 Rom + 5.01 Rom that is stopping Gapps from working. Due to the amount of errors in Logcat and in Application Info and dependent services not working. My gut is saying that when we have root on 5.0 we have a better chance of getting Gapps working as we will have the ability to play around with not only System files but System commands too.
If anyone has any ideas or what else we could try please chip in.

Hook the Fire up to your computer and do the following commands:
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.otaverifier
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.device.software.ota
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.settings.systemupdates

running those commands will prevent any future update?
Right now I have 5.0.1 and I'm happy with it, I would like to avoid any bad surprises.

yes updates would be blocked until you run the unhide commands.
