In new market I have an app that says update. When you hit update your only choice is to allow auto updating or open the app.

Any idea on how to actually update the app?

I found the way to watch movies from the android market while rooted...here is the solution for it and someone else in the android apps and game or android software thread mentioned it...here is his post in quotes...all credit goes to the user (ogdobber) in xda forums...please update this into the OP because i don't feel like making a thread for it and i dont want to be trolled either

"you can rent the movie with a rooted device...you just can't watch it (but you can with this trick)

open terminal on phone

Code:

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

mv /system/bin/su system/bin/mu

close terminal and you will be able to watch rented movies on your rooted device

to revert open terminal

Code:

mu

mount -o rw,remount /system

mv /system/bin/mu /system/bin/su

"
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
Probaly cause it will save somewhere and download while u watch it, then u could take the movie and save it elsewhere

Interesting :eek:

thats a lot of work maybe tho since we have this this can be whipped up in a flashable fix zip :D
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
Check out 13 and 14 seconds of the video

Looks like he is hitting videos app or something :eek:

hmmm
[Epic 4G General] flimsy888:
So your turning root off then back on after you watch the movie?
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
is that what it means? :eek:

I copied those in a notepad so i can copy and paste them back and forth if i ever want to watch a vid.
[Epic 4G General] flimsy888:
I believe so...
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
i think it changes su to mu and maybe rooted apps can use mu for root? :confused:

sorry he made a mistake and this is his revised post...in quotes

"you can rent the movie with a rooted device...you just can't watch it (but you can with this trick)

open terminal on phone

Code:

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

close terminal and you will be able to watch rented movies on your rooted device

to revert open terminal

Code:

mu

mount -o rw,remount /system

mv /system/bin/mu /system/bin/su

google movie looks for su by name, easy work around because naming it to mu you still have suid, but rooted apps (as well as google movie) are looking for su "name" as well..with the terminal you can tell it suid is mu

gsript doesn't work on this because it too looks for su on the revert

you can copy the code to a notepad and paste it in terminal so you don't have to type every time"

ps..here is the thread where i found the information.....http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15624683#post15624683

and from what i'm reading...it will affect rooted apps since su plays a role in rooted apps and read the thread and you will get more information since I'm not an expert...just an android fiend lol
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
Superuser intercepts apps that need root access - maybe it's possible to make a similar "subuser" app to intercept apps that detect root, so those apps can be masked such that they won't detect root access...

"This app is rejecting root access, allow/deny?"

EDIT: just saw the more recent posts, and that's a simple security measure to break - a simple script to hide/unhide the su binary, and an apk interface to run the script, similar to the dual boot helper

[Epic 4G General] Tinagenwo:
I've tried both to flash the .zip and instal the apk.

When I launch my app it says that I need to sign in to a google account.

I wasn't signed in because I had just flashed cm7 6.5.

When I clik on yes message: ( You must add an account to the divice to continue. Do you want to add one now).

When I click on yes or no the app closes and nothing happens. I tried to flash it another time and clearing cache but nothing seems to work, it alway comes back to that sign in.
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
Thanks!
[Epic 4G General] Wizard Knight:
even the current market makes you sign in before usage. sign in under settings> accounts and sync, then install the apk and see if that doesn't do the trick

So has anyone actually got movies to play from the new markwt using the rename of su to mu? I tried but it did not work for me on my Epic.

"you can rent the movie with a rooted device...you just can't watch it (but you can with this trick)

open terminal on phone

Code:

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

mv /system/bin/su system/bin/mu

close terminal and you will be able to watch rented movies on your rooted device

to revert open terminal

Code:

mu

mount -o rw,remount /system

mv /system/bin/mu /system/bin/su

"

I type in the "mount -o rw,remount /system" line and get the following on the terminal, "Usage: mount[-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory"

So I can't get any farther than that.

I have also used Root Explorer to just manually rename "su" to "mu" in both the bin and xbin folders. This did not work.

Any ideas?

The updated market pushed to my phone just fine but I rather wish I could go back to the old one. For whatever reason, the progress bar for updates to apps in the new market doesn't complete 99% of the time, it'll just sit there as if it's finishing the install even though the actual install has long since finished. Also, the button used to stop the progress of updates within the new market doesn't work at all for me. Blah.
[Acer Iconia A500] birkoffsjunk:
Am I the only on who is starting to get seriously p*ssed off at thor2002ro's lack of GPL compliance.

@thor2002ro Will you honour the GPL and release the source code to your kernel?
[Acer Iconia A500] ShadowXVII:
+1.

My biggest gripe about lack of compliance, is that it severely inhibits collaboration.

While thor2002ro may be a good Kernel developer, he/she may not necessarily have a perfect kernel.
[Acer Iconia A500] birkoffsjunk:
It's all starting to look a bit juvenile tbh... it would take all of 2 mins to upload, even just as tar/zip.

I've also seen that the Iconia CWM source hasn't been released either, granted I don't believe it's required under the Apache license but add it to the kernel and it starts to paint a picture someone who wants to be in 'control' rather than 'collaborate'.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but with each passing day it gets less and less likely.
[Acer Iconia A500] ShadowXVII:
TBH, the branding over CWM is also annoying. My HTC Desire doesn't have any branding, nor does any other CWM Recovery that I've seen previously. I was excited above this device getting attention by Kernel developers, but it seems most will possibly be discouraged with the lack of source.

A kernel that abides by the right licence gets my vote.
[Acer Iconia A500] n1nj4dude:
I personally could care less either way. Nobody is forcing you to use his work.

But if you are itching for controversy maybe you should check this out http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-violation.html
[Acer Iconia A500] ShadowXVII:
It's just inconvenient for collaboration. I want what's best for the device and it's community, really.

Everyone else releases their source, so what makes thor2002ro so special that he isn't able to? As the OP said, it wouldn't take long.

Is thor2002ro embarrassed to show his source code or something?
[Acer Iconia A500] Bec07:
"It will come when it's done"
[Acer Iconia A500] interqd:
now he is developing off site for his own satisfaction, so cant say anything about xda/android gpl violation

those who want to use just use, and we cant force him to release..
[Acer Iconia A500] zoubidou:
first of all, concerning compliance, GPL does not require to publish any source as long as it is not released, and even then it only obliges you to make it available to whom ever requets it and in whatever form including on paper.

second CWM could be published even under apache licence, since it is not part of the kernel.

third since ACER has not published the source of the 3.1 Kernel, how can you ask thor to publish his Kernel for 3.1. If he completely rewrote the Kernel, then he can use any licence he want, if not it's only libraries.

however if you go to his site, and you ask, you will probably get the source of what he is doing, as per GPL.

The only thing I don't like is that he excludes functions from the original ACER kernel, "like encryption", but that is due to the fact he does not have the ACER sources.
[Acer Iconia A500] ShadowXVII:
It's released on his site?

It'd still be appreciated by the community if it was published. I'm aware it's not part of the kernel.

Acer has a better track record at this point; http://support.acer.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=4&modelId=3851

An example of where multiple-developer minds could help bring features to the community faster?
[Acer Iconia A500] zoubidou:
sure i agree, but don't hide behind GPL licensing, it has nothing to do with that. I would just suggest that you make it a common rule to be respected maybe with some exceptions if they are reasonably submitted to the admin's.

Maybe thor has some reasons not to follow this rule, if he says so and it's reasonable, let it be, may be not, in which case he should get knocked off, and I mean completely, not just saying you are not allowed to and in fact he is still here and publishing his work without any sources just on a different site, but he has links to it. In fact this would possibly wether make him go away, or come back and comply, because of the audience.

That's what I think but I agree that other ideas are also possible.
[Acer Iconia A500] birkoffsjunk:
As far as CWM is concerned apache license doesn't require the release for the source, but would help the community maintain CWM rather than 1 person.

The kernel is another matter, the GPL is quite clear if you publish, and it has been, your required to make available the source.

Any attempt to change the license is a breach of the GPL.

I have asked repeatedly for said sources.

A user may not completely understand the importance of this, but developers do, and as a developer can thor please release his source code.
[Acer Iconia A500] ShadowXVII:
I'm not hiding behind anything :confused: It's a GPL violation. It's a binary release without source.

I'm not wanting to argue, especially not over reasons as to "why" or "why not" it might be released. In the end, it's not released.

I'd really appreciate it if it was. I'm sure others would too.
[Acer Iconia A500] zoubidou:
i agree with you, especially it could possibly help to make things work which don't work. It could also help tu share the work between experts, each is taking care of a different subject.

What I want to point out is, don't hide behind any licences, just make it the rules.
[Acer Iconia A500] birkoffsjunk:
The only person hiding is thor :|

Please also remember the Kernel has been developing for decades by thousands of indviduals and companies worldwide, and they all comply with the GPL, why can't thor?

Sorry if I sound like a broken record, it's just the frustration in dealing with this.

[Acer Iconia A500] mburke178:
don't see how any rom threads would be closed. there is no ROM on xda with Thor's kernel in it. You have to know where to go to get it. If he doesn't want to release the source, use a different kernel and build from that one. Unity works just fine.
[Acer Iconia A500] edgie168:
Taboonay was closed until they put up a version with stock kernel.
[Acer Iconia A500] Bec07:
How sweet, don't you worry, we can flash the kernel separately ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] franksames:
+1:D

It's getting more and more worse on XDA, that people request developer to release the source according GPL. But most of them do not understand what GPL is and how it's working.

So more and more developer move away from XDA and make there own site.

That's should not happen in the original spirit of XDA, but for me it seems this spirit is gone.
