First, quit BlueStacks entirely. This is best done via the hd-quit exe in the program files\bluestacks folder.

Then grab a GUID. Try here: http://www.guidgenerator.com/

Then, swap two spots in the registry...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BlueStacks\USER_GUID

and as part of the a very long string in (look for the part right after GUID= and replace just that GUID with your new one)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BlueStacks\Guests\Android\BootParameters.

Then start BlueStacks up again and launch BloodBrothers and viola! It's all new.

Messed up "input text" from adb shell

Hi all,

I'm running BlueStacks version 0.7.6.2802 and can "adb shell" (from Windows 7 command prompt, if that matters) into it just fine.

If I have a UI with an editable text field/area and try to simulate key events using "input text" from within the "adb shell", the characters that show up are not what I'm passing as the argument.

For example:

when I enter "input text abcdefgh", the output produced/shown is "#<9526-[", unclear what the transformation is.

When I enter "input text 0123456", the output produced/shown is ")!@#$%^", i.e., as if the "Shift" key is stuck.

I'd appreciate help/pointers on how to resolve this as I'd like to script some tasks through adb.

TIA.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] spunker88:
I made some ICS style button images for Bluestacks. The images used for these are simply png files in the Bluestacks program files folder so they can be easily customized. Extract this zip to the Bluestacks program files folder. Don't forget to backup the existing images if you want them back.

I used the recent apps button for full screen since it looked somewhat similar to the full screen icon. I made a blank icon for the share snapshot button since I don't use it and its disabled on my Bluestacks.

Also I did a clean install of Windows so I lost my old Bluestacks with Gapps working. Most of the info in the OP of this thread is outdated, so here's an updated version. If you install these 2 apks I attached Google Play (Market) seems to work fine and no rooting is needed. Unfortunately its an old version of Market (3.1.3) as newer versions seem to crash upon launch. Install both files, and reboot. Then open Market which will prompt to login to your Google Account. Once logged in you may have to reboot again, open Market and it should work. Its not the latest version but everything works and it installs and updates apps just fine.

If anybody knows how to get the latest Google Play working on the newer Bluestacks betas let me know.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Febby:
I'm going to do this with an older version of bluestacks. My sole purpose is to install google play store to the system along with google services. Would this method work? I don't seek to add root access or any of that. The version i want to do it with is the version 0.6.3.0686.

The reason why use that older version is because I can uninstall and reinstall to do tapjoy offers over and over again while with the newer bluestacks it seems to register an ID or something that will let tapjoy know I've already done this offer on this machine/install.

Taking my time, seeing if I can break mOar stuffs.

Oh yeah I changed to gapps for 2.3.3 if that makes any difference, don't think so cuz they still work and still had same issue, was using 2.3.4 gapps prior. I dunno why but I'm gonna try to get maps working. As if I'll travel with my desktop. But hey I can navigate with it if I wanna =P'

Mysterious app installs

Anyone else experiencing issues where every few times you start BlueStacks it starts downloading games from the Play Store? Most of these games I have never installed and probably wouldn't, I'm sure they are tied to the BlueStacks software but how can I disable this from happening. I stop them when I catch it, uninstall any that I didn't notice, and then remove them from "My Apps" in the Play Store. This eliminates them until the next time the software tries to install them again. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
